An Wenzhao looked ahead, the glittering imperial garden, just like the hope ignited in his heart.

Through the noisy crowd, An Wenzhao traveled all over the Imperial Garden but failed to find Qin Liusu. "Time is limited, so it looks like I'll have to go inside to find her."

An Wenzhao recalled what Wang Shixuan had said to him before leaving, and walked north along the main route of the Imperial Garden, and he finally found the road to the inner back garden.

However, not long after he entered the inner back garden, a person walked in front of him, with three palace maids by his side.

An Wenzhao couldn't help but stop. It's too suspicious to go back, and there's nowhere to hide here. Seeing the man walking towards him, An Wenzhao immediately bowed his head and bowed down, pretending to be indifferent and making a salute to greet him.

The man didn't care, and he didn't look at him. However, at the moment when the person passed by An Wenzhao's side, she suddenly opened her mouth and asked:

"Who are you, this point is not waiting in the Imperial Garden, what are you doing here? The man walked towards An Wenzhao and said, "Raise your head and let me see." ”

An Wenzhao just felt that this voice sounded familiar at first, but when he raised his head to look at the person, he saw that it was indeed Wang Xiaojun.

An Wenzhao, who saw Wang Xiaojun, was also immediately shocked, her face changed, and her eyes also changed.

But Wang Xiaojun didn't say anything, and then turned around, called the palace maid and continued to walk towards the imperial garden.

An Wenzhao's nervously beating heart immediately calmed down.

In the blink of an eye, the twilight faded, the night gradually rose, and the moon shadow was hazy, hiding behind the dark clouds. The entire Imperial Garden is lit up with lights and the starry sky on the top.

With the arrival of the concubines and Duguyi, this grand birthday dinner can be regarded as the beginning. Accompanied by the fluttering water sleeves of the singers and dancers, the colorful and gorgeous costumes under the lanterns, the guests present waved their wine glasses, and they were fascinated.

At this important moment, Qin Liusu was late again.

If nothing else, at this time, it is naturally more important to delay her attendance at Duguyi's birthday dinner than to prepare a gift for him.

The small stone she had with her was missing, and she only found it the moment she was ready to go out.

Qin Liusu roughly flipped through the Zhongcui Palace, but he didn't find it. However, when she was so anxious that she wanted to look for it a second time, Lian'er couldn't wait.

"Niangniang, it's not early, the emperor and all the Niangniang have already arrived at the Imperial Garden, you can't be like noon anymore." Seeing that Qin Liusu did not respond, Lian'er didn't say a word, and pulled Qin Liusu out of Zhongcui Palace with all her strength.

Qin Liusu wouldn't just let go of that green stone. She always firmly believed in the words of the old man who gave her the stone, this stone was destined for her, and this stone did bring her good luck and brought her a different life.

And this stone is as important to her as a piece of flesh that has fallen from her body, or even more important than this piece of meat.

When Lian'er pulled Qin Liusu and ran to the inner back garden, Qin Liusu suddenly remembered that the place where he stayed today was these two gardens in addition to Zhong Cui Palace.

Start here first, and even if you can't find it, you can go back to the Imperial Garden.

"Lian'er, wait." Qin Liusu stopped and said to Lian'er: "Lian'er, I'...... If I haven't arrived in half an hour, you can help me plead with the emperor, saying that I am not feeling well and cannot pass, and beg him for forgiveness. ”

"Niangniang, Lian'er understands, but ...... Is this really possible? ”

"Try it, you go quickly, in case my little stone is picked up by someone else, it will be troublesome. Also, give me the lantern. ”

After hearing what Qin Liusu said, Lian'er hesitated, but turned around and hurriedly ran towards the Imperial Garden.

So, Qin Liusu picked up the lantern in her hand and looked for her small stones all over the garden.

However, as she was looking for her body, she suddenly bumped into someone. Qin Liusu stood up and looked up, but saw that it was his brother An Wenzhao.

It was that familiar face, and she was startled, and she felt as if she was in a dream.

Qin Liusu lifted the lantern in his hand and shone it on his face, it was his brother An Wenzhao.

"Brother, it's really you!" He didn't hesitate to pounce on his brother, who had been missing his brother for a long time, and shouted with joy: "Brother, is it really you, Qin Liusu is not dreaming!" ”

"It's me, Qin Liusu, it's my brother." An Wenzhao also hugged her tightly.

Looking back, it was like the last time she was in Lingxiu Palace, and her brother An Wenzhao appeared in front of her like a surprise every time.

More than a month has passed in the blink of an eye, and the thoughts she has accumulated in her heart have been more than a month, and she never thought that An Wenzhao would appear in front of her at this time and place.

"Brother, you haven't told me how you ended up here?" Qin Liusu looked at An Wenzhao and asked him curiously.

"Qin Liusu, my brother is here to take you back."

"Take me back, but didn't Dad say he would come, and the time hasn't come yet?" Qin Liusu looked at him with a pair of big eyes, still feeling strange.

"Dad, he ......" An Wenzhao hesitated, and then organized his words to explain to Qin Liusu: "Qin Liusu, I just listened to my father's meaning, my father has been busy recently, so you can go back with your brother." ”

An Wenzhao looked at Qin Liusu, his eyes were a little confused, and her big eyes seemed to be filled with the entire starry sky.

"Okay, my brother will pick me up, then Qin Liusu will go back with my brother." She smiled happily.

"Then let's go now, I already saw Wang Xiaojun just now, and I don't know what will happen when it's late." An Wenzhao said anxiously.

"What are you talking about, brother, did you see Wang Xiaojun? Brother, did you sneak into the palace? The smile on Qin Liusu's face disappeared instantly, and he suddenly became nervous: "No, brother, you hurry up, otherwise it won't be good to be discovered, while there is no one here, you go quickly." ”

"No, Qin Liusu! I'm here to take you away this time, what's the point of my brother living alone without you? "He made a good decision, and no one could influence him.

"Brother." Looking at An Wenzhao, Qin Liusu replied: "Okay, Qin Liusu will go with you." But you have to wait for me here first, and I'll get some things when I get back. ”

"What, does it matter?" An Wenzhao asked.

"Except for my father and brother, it is the most important thing for Qin Liusu."

"Then you go quickly, my brother is waiting for you here."

"Hmm." With that, Qin Liusu ran across the inner back garden and ran frantically towards Zhong Cui Palace.

However, the moment Qin Liusu pushed open the door of his room, he saw that the little girl who looked exactly like himself appeared in front of him again.

"Little ...... Little stone, why are you here, I've been looking for you for a long time, where did you come from! Qin Liusu asked with a look of surprise and curiosity.

"Because you're stupid, I'm lying under the bed, and you don't even see it." Xiao Shi pouted at Qin Liusu with disdain, and pointed to Qin Liusu's bed and replied to her.

Qin Liusu hurriedly ran under the bed, stretched out his hand to pick up the stone, and hurriedly said to the little stone: "Since you have found it, you hurry back to the small stone, I have something urgent now, and I will tell you slowly." ”

After that, Qin Liusu anxiously urged the little girl to go back to the stone, and ran outside with the small stone.

Duanmu Lei and the kings and others present were also intoxicated at this time.

Looking at these beautiful singing and dancing performances, Dugu Yu, who usually doesn't show his talents easily, couldn't help but chant poetry.

"This king has seen it today, the singing and dancing girls in this palace are really carefully selected beauties, and those outside are incomparable." Feng Batian held the jade cup, drank wine, and exclaimed: "As far as those concubines I saw today, those are really ...... It's even more beautiful than the concubine when my father was alive! ”

Duanmu Lei was also drinking, looking at this grand scene, and he was also thinking about other things in his heart.

"Big brother, it's dark this day, and I've watched the singing and dancing, third brother, I'm still curious about what kind of gift you have prepared for the emperor."

Chu Weifeng smiled and asked Duanmu Lei curiously.

"Don't worry, you guys, just wait and see." Duanmu Lei glanced at the sky around him, and also smiled while taking a sip of wine.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, a guard suddenly came to Dugu Yi to report: "There are several assassins who have tried to harm the emperor, and they have all been taken down by us." I checked and found that their weapons were poisonous. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Dugu Yi immediately told everyone the same thing loudly: "There are assassins. Did you hear that? An Assassin attempted to kill the widow. ”

Hearing this, the audience was embarrassed, panicked, and calm.

"You don't need to panic, you have been taken down by the widow's guards at this moment. The widow tells you that as long as you enter the palace of the widow, the assassin is a floating cloud, and he can't hurt the widow, because ah, the widow's heavy elite guards are not raised for nothing, hahahaha! ”

Dugu Yi pretended to be proud, laughing at everyone, and then said to the guard who came up to report: "You go down first, and you don't need to report such a trivial matter to the widow in the future." ”

After that, the guard understood, and bowed and withdrew.

But now Duanmu Lei under the seat is not so indifferent, he slammed the wine glass in his hand on the wine table with displeasure, his eyes were full of anger and unhappiness: "It seems that I underestimated this Dugu Wing." ”

Everyone just looked at Duanmu Lei like this, and didn't dare to speak. Only Chu Weifeng still raised the corners of his mouth and smiled slightly.

But it was said that after Qin Liusu found the small stone, he ran out of Zhong Cui Palace without taking anything. However, just as she ran to the inner back garden and just met with her brother An Wenzhao, Wang Xiaojun suddenly appeared in front of them.

It turned out that after the dinner had begun for a long time, Wang Xiaojun, who was distracted, inadvertently found that there was no Qin Liusu among the concubines present.

Alert, she immediately recalled the scene when Shicai met An Wenzhao in the inner back garden. However, with her Wang Xiaojun's ingenuity, after thinking about it, although she couldn't think of the whole reason, she also guessed the approximate reason.

Wang Xiaojun's mind flashed, so he found an excuse to leave his seat, and then went straight to the inner back garden alone.

"What are you doing here?" Wang Xiaojun smiled and asked the two of them: "An Wenzhao, I didn't expect that after being abandoned by you that day, I would be able to meet you again in this palace wall." ”

"Wang Xiaojun, I didn't expect that you would also enter the palace, what is it now, have you become a concubine?" An Wenzhao glanced at Wang Xiaojun from head to toe, and said to her with some pity and sarcasm in his words: "You were so strong at the beginning, how did you become what you are now." ”

"What does this look like now? An Wenzhao, in your opinion, what kind of appearance is this. Don't talk about me yet, didn't your most beloved sister also enter the palace? Moreover, she is just a little concubine, and she is still under the feet of my Wang Xiaojun. ”

"Xiaojun, wake up!" Qin Liusu couldn't help but say to her.

"Anqin Liusu, are you qualified to talk to me!" Wang Xiaojun's eyes widened, looked at Qin Liusu and said:
