At the same time, there is an elegant courtyard in the palace, Nanyue Chen lazily leaned on the soft couch to watch the beauty dance, next to another beauty is stroking the qin, these two people are two days ago Dongyun Emperor rewarded, the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are proficient, but also singing and dancing, the beauty is beautiful, but there is one thing missing - soul.

He understands Emperor Dongyun's thoughts, the princess is not ready to kiss, and he originally wanted to marry others like the prince of Xiliang, but he refused. Originally, it was in the name of harmony, but in fact, it was secretly deployed to measure the situation, so I didn't care too much about whether the princess could marry or not.

Besides, the figure of someone in his mind has been lingering, and he has no other interest. I still remember that day when the streets were full of energy, and the temperament between the eyebrows was outstanding, and then I saw her colorful clothes fluttering, and the veil fell to reveal the appearance of the city, which really shocked his heart. In the blink of an eye, she turned into a little palace maid in the palace, with a light posture and a calm demeanor.

She is so versatile, but it also deeply touches his heart. It's a pity that she is neither a Qinqing girl, nor a little palace maid, and even Du Qingran's name is Du Qingran's name, she is the emperor's concubine.

No matter how much she was bound to win, she would not be able to make him move to the point of changing the layout or causing discord between the two countries and the spread of war. The courtyard here is quiet and pleasant, and it is far from the harem, I wonder what she is doing now? Unconsciously, thoughts drifted to her again.

"The princess has arrived!" A voice came from afar, pulling back Nan Yuechen's thoughts, and when he got up from the soft couch, he saw Princess Wanyue coming from outside the door, and walked closer to look at him with a smile. I didn't feel funny in my heart, this princess saw her in a hurry on the birthday of the Queen Mother, and recognized her as another woman who went out of the palace with Concubine Qing that day, and she was even more sure that Concubine Qing was that Du Qingran.

A princess, a concubine, out of the palace together, heh, it's very interesting.

waved his hand to make the two beauties stop, and stepped forward to greet him: "I didn't know that the princess was here, and it was rude to Yue Chen." ”

Wan Yue pretended to say, "Prince Nan doesn't need to be too polite. His eyes swept around, and the wine jug that landed on the table said jokingly: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is so interested, with good wine and food, surrounded by beautiful women, so happy." "Because I didn't have the worries of being with my relatives before, I didn't have any disgust for this Prince Nanshao, not to mention that they knew each other at the beginning.

"The princess laughed." Nan Yuechen replied with a light smile, with a polite attitude, and swept away the strength in his eyes.

Wan Yue said lightly to her maid behind her: "You go outside and wait, my father-in-law will talk to Prince Nan for a while." After speaking, he winked at Nan Yuechen and hinted, he immediately understood, and also instructed the people who were waiting on the side: "There is no need to wait here, you should retreat away." ”

It's not good to retreat directly, the two have special identities, and they are in the palace, so if they get along alone, they may be criticized.

After the others walked away, Wanyue's childlike heart rose again, walked to the vicinity of Nanyue Chen, and asked lightly: "Yue Gongzi, do you still know me?" Seeing the other party's suspicious face, he was even more arrogant in his heart, it seemed that her outfit was quite in place that day, and she reminded him that he hadn't recognized it yet. So he smiled and said, "Then does my eldest brother Du Qingran know me?" ”

"Brother Du naturally knows, are you ......" Shock appeared in his eyes.

Wanyue shook her head and said, "As you guessed!" The smile on his face was bright, "What, I dressed up like my eldest brother that day." She didn't know that Dye Qing was recognized as a Qinqing girl and what happened in the palace, but she didn't see her again after saying goodbye to Nanyue Chen. It was also on the queen mother's birthday that she took a sneak peek, only to find out that he was Yue Chen that day, thinking that the imperial sister-in-law might also think so.

I took a folded piece of paper from my sleeve pocket and handed it to the other party, "No, this is what my eldest brother asked me to give you." ”

This time, Nanyue Chen was interested, what did Concubine Qing give him? After taking it, I just thought about it, and opened it in front of Wanyue, but found that she was not curious, just looked at it calmly, and when it was all unfolded, she was stunned, there was nothing, just a blank piece of paper?

"Poof", Wanyue laughed, and said happily: "Big brother just said, you must have this expression when you see this white paper, and you are stunned." It turned out that she had already seen it, and knew that it was blank, so she looked up at the sky, "It's not early, this princess has also returned, don't be surprised by Prince Nan, just kidding you." Then he turned and left.

Nan Yuechen stared at her back thoughtfully, measuring in his heart, whether this was really a joke she made with herself, or did it have another meaning. I looked at it a few times, but I still didn't see any clues, and even under the light, there was no word hidden in it, this is really just an ordinary piece of paper. smiled bitterly, thinking that he was also a quick-witted person, but this time he didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in this Qingfei gourd.

What does a blank piece of paper represent?

The next day, the emperor gave a banquet to the Zichen Palace, and there were Prince Nanshao and Prince Xiliang, and they all brought their family beauties, and the second king Qin Haoshuo also entered the banquet, but he did not bring his wife into the palace, only sat behind the table, and rarely spoke. Accompanied by King Rui and the right Xiangyan Chengxiao.

"After more than a month, two distinguished guests came from afar, and they will leave for China tomorrow. If there is any negligence, please forgive me. "Qin Tiance is wearing a golden dragon robe this night, sitting on the dragon seat, neither humble nor arrogant, and has his own majesty.

Nan Yuechen smiled and said: "Your Majesty, you are too humble, after this prince came to Dongyun, he has seen a lot of the customs and culture of your country, although it is a pity that he can't find a good relationship with the princess, but he also gets a beauty." If this is still called slackness, where can it be justified? ”

The prince of Xiliang is not as literate as him, and he was originally unhappy that he did not marry the princess, but now he sees that the prince of Nanshao is not as good as himself, and he only got two beautiful maids, how can he also be the county lord of the imperial seal next to him, and he is the daughter of the imperial history, the difference between the two shows that the Dongyun Emperor attaches great importance to himself, and he can't help but show pride on his face, and he also swept away the previous unhappiness.

Seeing that the two of them were pacified, Qin Tiance's eyes turned, "Second brother, I wanted to keep you for a while longer, but the queen mother was also worried that you would suffer outside, why were you so anxious to return to the border fiefdom?" ”

Qin Haoshuo lowered his eyebrows and bowed and said, "Back to the emperor, the ministers on the queen mother's side have already comforted me." In fact, if the border land is not governed for a long time, I am afraid that someone will take the opportunity to cause chaos, so the minister can no longer stay and not return. ”

Qin Tiance nodded with a smile, his eyes showing satisfaction. But he said in his heart, his second brother is perfect in everything he says and does, and the depth of the city is no worse than his own, has he noticed his movements, so he can't wait to ask him to return to the border? But he hasn't started yet, so it stands to reason that he shouldn't be discovered, and according to the spies' report, the second king and the queen mother have not made any moves recently.

But no flaw is the biggest flaw, he is sure that Qin Haoshuo must have a plan, and he will never leave Kyoto easily. And he didn't allow him to escape back to the fiefdom, otherwise he would let the tiger return to the mountain, and there would be endless troubles.

Rui Wang and Yan Chengxiao, as escorts, sometimes persuaded to drink, and arranged singing and dancing performances, and the atmosphere of the scene was also warm for a while, and it was not cold. Qin Tiance smiled lightly and held the wine glass, occasionally taking a sip, looking lazy and casual, but only he knew that the surroundings of this hall had been heavily guarded, and most of the purple guards were hidden in the shadows, and there was always an intuition that something was going to happen tonight.

Suddenly, Han Xiao rushed from outside with a panicked face, and only when he arrived in the hall did he stabilize his figure, and walked quickly to the emperor's side and whispered. Qin Tiance stood up suddenly, his face changed greatly, and Nan Yuechen and the others looked over, slightly surprised. Every time I see this Dongyun Emperor, I am calm and a little cold, and it is the first time I have seen such a gaffe.

Rui Wang and Yan Chengxiao glanced at each other, knowing that something was happening, but it was not good to ask too much at this time. But I heard the second king ask: "Your Majesty, but something happened?" "A look of concern.

Qin Tiance forced his mind and forced out a smile and said: "It's okay, the concubines in my harem are arguing, and there are always trivial things to come to this concubine." King Rui greeted everyone on my behalf, continued to drink, and I came as soon as I went. After speaking, ignoring everyone's faces, he lifted his dragon robe and walked out, leaving everyone to look at each other.

King Rui rolled his eyes, looked at Yan Chengxiao, and immediately the two stepped forward to play a round.

Coming out of the Zichen Palace, Qin Tiance couldn't calm down anymore, just as soon as Han Xiao whispered to him that something had happened to the Fengran Palace, his heart immediately became cold, and something sank. "What the hell is going on?"

Han Xiao immediately replied: "Your Majesty, my subordinates saw blue and purple smoke floating above the Fengran Palace, and they immediately reported it when they knew that something was wrong." "The blue purple smoke is a signal flare sent by their purple guard at the most critical moment, and no one will release it easily unless it is absolutely necessary. In addition to the Ziwei elite in the Fengran Palace, Zuo Tong is even more guarding in front of the door, even if the Queen Mother goes to find trouble or other concubines make trouble, it is impossible to be in danger so soon, Zuo Tong will definitely find a way to come and inform.

However, no, no one came to inform them, only to see a danger signal.

Minghuang's figure flashed, and Qin Tiance immediately performed light skills without scruples, and swept towards the direction of Fengran Palace. What's going on there? She...... How's it going?

Han Xiao followed closely behind, and his heart was also inexplicably frightened, and he was surrounded by heavy soldiers in the Zichen Palace, but he never thought that it would be the Fengran Palace that had an accident!

When the two of them were about to arrive at the gate of Fengran Palace, their hearts were completely cold......

More than a dozen forbidden soldiers fell in front of the palace gate, and blood spread out from under them, and they didn't need to look at it to know that they were killed. Qin Tiance rushed into the inner courtyard, his eyes burst out, and there were people scattered and crooked on the ground, and many black-clothed secret guards were lying in a pool of blood. There are more than twenty Ziwei who were transferred to the Zichen Palace tonight, and the ones who stayed in the Fengran Palace to guard were the best elites, a total of more than a dozen, but now they all fell to the ground and died.

There was blood everywhere, in addition to the guards and purple guards, as well as the minions in the Fengran Palace, and the masked man in black, there was obviously a fierce battle here.

"Dye blue!" The call that came out of his throat was very soft when he came out, and he was afraid...... There was silence, not a single human voice, and her eyes were fixed on the back hall, was she there? She...... Still alive?

He was about to rush inside, but Han Xiao blocked it with one step, stopped in front of him and said hurriedly: "The emperor can't, the assassin may still be there, your internal strength has not recovered yet, don't be alone in danger, your subordinates have already roared Ziwei over." ”

"Get out of here!" Qin Tiance roared angrily, his eyes were full of blood, the entire palace was stained red with blood, and his eyes were also dyed red, his heart had sunk to the bottom, he was afraid that if he walked inside, he might see her lying in a pool of blood.
