Weiyang Palace.

After listening to the words of the people below, Empress Wei's face became even paler, but there was not much anger between her eyebrows, and she was only a little tired: "Although He Wenqiong is an old man who has followed His Majesty, but now His Majesty is about to go to the throne, and the prince is seriously injured, he is worried about the future of the He family, and it is not surprising that he fell to King Su's side, in the end he has nothing to do with the King of Shu, but his son is about to be Changxing." ”

Speaking of this, he sighed bitterly, "And he is unwilling to openly support King Su, he is only willing to release the water a little, obviously still thinking of His Majesty, and has a glimmer of hope for our side!" ”

Seeing that her companion had nothing else to say, Xin Xian hinted that she retreated, and said to the queen: "But Concubine Xu is self-sufficient. has prevented the king of Shu from participating in the competition for the throne, and now our choice is only Lu Hehao and King Xiang - King Xiang is also the same as King Su, if he is qualified to participate in the competition for the throne, then King Su is not a problem! In other words, now we can only choose Lu Hehao! ”

She knew that Empress Wei was not a person who couldn't let go of her personal grievances, the question was, "Lu Hehao's reputation in the government and the opposition is not good, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get the approval of the princes!" If King Su never comes back, there is no other better candidate for the princes, so they can only admit it. But now He Wenqiong wants to let King Su come back, and at that time, he is only afraid of ......"

After all, King Su's impression on the courtiers was much better than that of Lu Hehao!

"If King Su wants to enter the city, come in!" Empress Wei straightened her sleeves without any expression, and said lightly, "Actually, this is also a good thing: he has been cruising outside before, and there is nothing this palace can do with him!" Wait until he enters the city......"

Xin Xian hurriedly reminded: "I'm afraid that since He Wenqiong is willing to let him into the city, I'm afraid he may not be willing to help us deal with him?" ”

"Then He Wenqiong has to help us deal with him!" A touch of murderous intent flashed in Empress Wei's eyes: her son is still lying on the sickbed and enduring pain, why can King Su be good? Still delusional to compete for the throne - the queen slowly exhaled and said in her heart: "Huang'er, don't worry, promise your mother, King Su will definitely not be better than you!! ”

She settled down, covered the resentment in her heart, and said to Xin Xian: "The He family sent such important news, you must not be rewarded!" It's just that things haven't been done yet, so I'm afraid it will attract attention. In this way, you can take some medicinal herbs to Qibao Palace again, so as to comfort He Xiuyi and tell her that as long as we win, she will definitely not need to worry about the future! ”

Xin Xian should go down and do it.

He Xiuyi was naturally overjoyed after receiving this promise, her illness was originally caused by anxiety and panic in her heart, there is a way that heart disease still needs heart medicine, and now the worry is gone, but it is better in a blink of an eye.

And she fell ill before, not only did Empress Wei promise the Lian family to visit the palace, but also a companion who entered the palace couldn't help but come to ask for warmth - especially after the Lian family came, Xue Concubine and the others also hoped to inquire about the situation outside from He Xiuyi, although they couldn't do anything now, but listening to some rumors was better than resigning themselves to fate who didn't know anything, wasn't it?

Therefore, He Xiuyi's improvement can't hide from these people, Xue Concubine is the most unwilling to accompany the tragedy of Emperor Duanhua, seeing the problem, she immediately knocked on the side and said: "Niangniang's complexion is really good today, and this spirit is also vigorous, but what good news did Mrs. Lian tell you?" But I don't know if I can say a word to these concubines, so that we can also accompany Le Yile? ”

Hearing this, Tian Baolin, Zhong Meiren, and Jiang Cairen, who came to visit together, also showed anticipation.

"Sister Xue, don't you know the current situation?" Although the five of them entered the palace together, they were not particularly familiar with each other when they were outside the palace, at most they saw a nodding friendship on the scene.

So He Xiuyi naturally couldn't share such an important matter with them at this moment - not to mention telling them, their maiden family was not He's family, so where could they help them? is to avoid the important and perfunctory, "What is the good news, and what does it have to do with us hard-working people?" It's just that I haven't seen my mother's mother for a few days, and I can't bear to ask her to worry about me, so I have to come out with some energy! ”

"I see!" Xue Concubine and the others all showed clear doubts and disappointment when they heard this, but they didn't know how to cultivate the ceremony in terms of position, and they also went to He Xiuyi's family very far away, even if they wanted to ask very much, but in the case that He Xiuyi obviously changed the topic, they didn't dare to persecute them, they only exchanged glances with each other, and said with a forced smile, "Niangniang is really pure filial piety!" ”

He Xiuyi looked at the four of them, they all looked like themselves in terms of age, a girl around fifteen years old, with a delicate appearance, fair skin, and a youthful atmosphere all over her body, it was a pity to be so involved by Emperor Duanhua.

It's just that this matter is not something that she can help with as a cultivator, in fact, even herself, she can't say that the future is definitely no problem - because what if it is King Su who wins?

So at this moment, although I was a little weak and unbearable, I didn't say anything that shouldn't be said, I just smiled and said a few words of jewelry and clothing to them, and when I saw that the time was about the same, I served tea and sent it off.

Xue Concubine and the others withdrew from the main hall of Qibao Palace, and their faces were not very good-looking.

Halfway through, looking at no one else on the road, Zhong Meiren couldn't help but raise her sleeves and half-cover her mouth, and said with some anger and grievance: "Mrs. Lian has already gone out of the palace and returned, but Xiuyi Niangniang is happy at this point, it seems that the queen is really understanding, and knows that Xiuyi Niangniang's illness this time is to miss her family, so as soon as Mrs. Lian comes, Xiuyi Niangniang will be fine!" ”

"She has a good mother's family, and she doesn't have to worry about retreating in any situation, so of course she is happy!" Xue Concubine is the most pampered and extreme temper among the five, originally because of jealousy, she secretly harbored hostility towards He Xiuyi, this time she listened to Zhong Meiren's words, sneered, and blurted out, "It's a pity that those of us who are really hard-working can only live one day at a time!" ”

The other three were silent, and between their expressions, they all revealed their dissatisfaction with He Xiuyi - it's no wonder that the five of them were the eldest ladies of the slave envoys before entering the palace, but after entering the palace, the situation immediately saw the difference, He Xiuyi has a high position, is favored, and is valued, and now the emperor is going to be tragic, she also has vitality, and she also asked her companions to find out, how can she feel good in her heart as a companion?

"We are all people who follow His Majesty." Tian Baolin has the softest temper among the five people, this will see that the atmosphere is not right, so he wants to say a few words to ease up, but also comfort himself, "If Xiuyi Niangniang can be safe, aren't we ...... Can you get some light too? ”

"Sister Tian, you are also naïve!" But before the words fell, Concubine Xue had already twisted the handkerchief and sneered, "Don't forget the rules of this dynasty, unless the three concubines who have no children are taken pity on the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager, they are all sent to the palace to wait for death!" Even though they were sisters next door, when the Empress Dowager ordered Concubine Fu to be taken back to the imperial city from the palace, who of the other concubines and concubines were stained? ”

Tian Baolin pursed his lips, and gloom flashed in his eyes.

"But what can we do now?" Jiang Cairen, who had not spoken, sighed faintly and said in a low voice, "In this imperial city, concubines like us are just inconspicuous characters in the final analysis...... Right now, the harem is surging, where is there a place for us to talk?! ”

Xue Concubine and the others froze when they heard this, and they all clenched their veils tightly!

When these young concubines were confused on the road ahead, in the twilight of the first day, in a secluded alley not far from Miyagi, they drove into an inconspicuous oil-walled car.

The horse pulling the cart was just an ordinary horse, and the coachman was also mediocre - but after the carriage stopped in front of a door at the bottom of the alley with a lantern with the word Fu, the half-old green cloth curtain was lifted, and a figure wrapped in a fox fur jumped off the wheel with a stiff movement, and many white-clothed people suddenly appeared around it. Kasato!

It snowed heavily for several days, and the imperial capital was covered with snow inside and outside, and the robes on these people were the same color as the snow, and if you didn't look carefully, it would be difficult to detect even if they were close at hand.

But the slaughter that suddenly condensed around it was like a famous sword coming out of its sheath, and like a strong bow about to lead the string.

The snowflakes that were originally light and flying also seemed to be stained with a different kind of heaviness.

There is a spurt-touch calm.

The fox fur man ignored the change, and only stretched out a slender and white hand with clear calluses at the joints of his fingertips, pressed the hood on his head, and stepped into the door.

And those people in white did not stop this in the slightest, but looked around more and more vigilantly.

The cold night is easy to twilight, and soon the twilight splashes like ink on the earth, covering the snow.

Half an hour later, Su Shaoge of the Jihou Mansion received news: King Su had entered the city safely and was being placed in a mansion that had nothing to do with the Su family and was unaware when the emperor and queen searched for Pei Yourui all over the city!

"Let him settle down for the night!" Su Shaoge got up with a long smile, looked out the window at the vast night, and swept away the elegance and nobility that had always been, as if he was about to go to war, with a shimmering edge and a solemn bearing, and said with a negative hand, "From now on, it's time to tell the world who is the most suitable new monarch!" ”

At the same time, the Yanhou Mansion in the twilight is ushering in an unexpected guest: Pei Yourui!

"Where has Sister Yi been in the past two days?" Jian Xubai and his wife looked at the appearance revealed after the hood was lifted, and they were all surprised, "The emperor and queen have been looking for you everywhere so far......"

Speaking of this, I was afraid that Pei Yourui would misunderstand, so I hurriedly explained, "We are all worried about you!" ”

"I suddenly lost consciousness that day, and when I woke up again, it was already made by the Burning Quinoa Hall." Pei Yourui's face was a little pale, but judging from her complexion, she had not been treated badly in the past two days since she disappeared, and at this moment she subconsciously stroked her lower abdomen and said in a low voice, "I can come here today because Burning Quinoa wants to talk to you alone!" ”

Jian Xubai and his wife glanced at each other, and there was suspicion in their eyes - Song Yi smiled and glanced at Jia Shiyi, who seemed to be a rich boy behind Pei Yourui, and didn't greet him, but only stepped forward to hold Pei Yourui, and chuckled: "Sister has worked hard outside for the past two days, and now that she is back here, it will be the same as her own home, and let me go and rest for a while!" Chaoping: They miss you too, they miss you tightly! ”

Pei Yourui is not a particularly thoughtful person, since falling into the hands of Jia Eleven, although Jia Shi has always been very polite and accommodating to her, but because she can't trust Jia Shiyi, she has always had a string in her heart - at this moment, I finally saw Jian Xubai and his wife, and knew that this brother and sister-in-law were all successful, so this tone relaxed, but I didn't want to stay with Jia Shi anymore!

Hearing this, he nodded without hesitation!

Seeing Song Yixiao leading Pei Yourui away, Jian looked at Jia Yibai and smiled slightly: "Didn't ask for advice?" ”
