The royal palace of Tsunashi Castle

The main hall of the goddess of benevolence in the middle palace of King Yun

The afternoon sun shone directly on the hair of the goddess of benevolence, and in the shadow of the feet of the huge statue of the goddess, two men in ministers' robes were whispering.

"Just received... that the sniper plan failed ...

"What?!, what about Black Jade?"

“... Confirmed casualties. ”

"Damn... Didn't you warn him not to fight against Shi Duyun, just kill the Peerless Lotus Blossom?"

“......”

"No, my lord, Heiyu carried out your order well, staying behind and killing the Peerless Lotus Blossom. ”

"Then why ......"

"He... It is possible that he died at the hands of the Peerless Lotus Flower. ”

"How is that possible?!"

The slightly taller of the two was shocked.

He continued: "The Peerless Lotus Flower is just a Winged Spirit!Black Jade's ability is far above him!How could he be defeated?!"

"According to the spies, when they arrived, Heiyu was already at the scene of the corpse, and the spies did not see the scene of the fight. But judging from the move to kill the black jade, it was obviously not the Cloud Dragon King's doing, so they guessed whether the black jade would die in the hands of the Peerless Lotus Flower. ”

"So...... No, it's impossible, Peerless Lianhua definitely doesn't have the ability to kill Black Jade, if it weren't for Shi Duyun himself......"

"What do you mean...?"

"In this way, you will immediately send a few more fast spies out to keep up with them, and you must find out whose hands the black jade died at!"

"But... My lord, no matter how fast the spies are, they can't catch up with the Cloud Dragon King!"

"You don't have to catch up with Shi Duyun and let the spies hide in the ...... When he waits, he will definitely know who killed Night Feather Black Jade. ”

After a whisper in his ear, the other of the two nodded.

Then he asked, "My lord, what should I do over there with Ye Yulong?"

"We must not let Night Feather Long know about the Night Feather Black Jade, or the people we planted in the Black Feather will be purged immediately. You just said that I arranged Heiyu to run errands, if he wants to know anything specifically, let him ask me, I am Heiyu's father-in-law, and Ye Yulong will not suspect me. ”

"Yes. ”

After the conversation, the two immediately left separately without being seen by anyone......

At this time, in the harem of King Yun, the undercurrent is also flowing.

In the flowery Chunning Palace, Queen Abe Romeo has just woken up, and the maids are changing her clothes and dressing.

A beautiful lady suddenly appeared in the garden and hurried in the direction of the queen.

Female officials are unique official positions in the harem, and their usual duties are to help the queens and concubines who are unable to step out of the harem to go out to do errands, purchases, or deliver information to their families.

It is generally held by middle- and low-ranking women in the eight side branch families of Yunlong.

But this female officer is very special, she walks with the wind under her feet, her figure is heroic and straight, there is no ordinary female officer's submissive feeling, but there is a female warrior on the battlefield.

Seeing her coming, Abe Luo Miu immediately waved his hand, and all the maids around him retreated in interest and left Chunning Palace. The maid who walked at the end gently closed the door outside the palace garden.

When only she and the queen were left, the female official approached the queen, put one palm on her forehead, and bowed to the queen.

"Well, let's talk about it. ”

Abe Romeo looked lazy and didn't care, but his eyes kept staring at the female officer with her head down.

"Lord Yun has already left the palace, and it is said that he has begged for an oracle for the heavy snow, and he will turn back a day later. ”

"So... How's it going over there?"

The "over there" that Abe Romeo refers to is the Akiwa Palace where her sister Abroyu lives.

One of the most important tasks of this female official was to monitor her sister's movements on behalf of the queen.

"There has been no movement on Concubine Chen's side, and since last night's dinner, Concubine Chen has not taken half a step out of Qiuhe Palace. ”

"Really?... Is she alone or is she accompanied by a maid in the palace?"

"There are no maids, because it is almost the New Year, and you are going to give birth, and there is a shortage of manpower in the palace these days, so since three days ago, Prince Yu has not sent any maids to Qiuhe Palace. ”

"Oh......" The tone of the voice gradually lowered, indicating that Abe Romeo was thinking.

After a while, she asked again, "So, did King Yun take anything with him when he left?"

"I don't know, but I just heard ......"

Leaning closer, the lady leaned in to the queen's ear and said something in a voice that only the two of them could hear, and then returned to her original posture of standing with her head bowed.

Hearing the female official's report, a trace of fear flashed in the queen's eyes, but it quickly covered up.

"Do you see their faces?"

"No, but it sounds a bit like ......"

"Like who?!" Abe Romeo couldn't help but straighten his upper body slightly.

There was another whisper, and the female officer informed Abe of the name of the person she had guessed.

"How could he ?...," Abe Romeo was a little puzzled.

But she immediately changed the subject and continued, "Are you sure that Concubine Chen has been in the palace all along?"

"Yes, I've been watching her since I saw her go in, and I haven't seen her come out. The female officer's tone was very affirmative.

After thinking about it for a while, Abe Luo Miu was still not at ease, and she said, "Let's go, go to Qiuhe Palace." ”

"But your body ......"

"Don't get in the way, let the maid carry my soft sedan right away. ”

"Yes!"

After answering the order, the lady turned and went out into the garden, and after giving a few explanations to the maid guarding the door, she immediately turned back to the queen's side, and stood aside for orders.

After putting on the phoenix robe embroidered with gold silk and a hundred flowers, Abe Luo Miao was helped into the soft sedan chair by the maid, and went all the way to the Qiuhe Palace where Concubine Chen was located.

After arriving at the palace gate of the Autumn Harmony Palace, Abe Romeo motioned for the maids to stay in front of the palace gate and wait. I'm going to go in by myself.

The female officer behind him hurried to follow, but just as she took the first step, she received a stop from the queen.

She had no choice but to take a step back and wait outside the gate of Qiuhe Palace with the palace maids.

This autumn and palace is just like its name, at a glance is the color of autumn, in front of the palace gate is full of fiery red maple trees, push open the palace gate, the courtyard is depressed, on both sides of the sparsely grow some wood hibiscus and begonias, has passed the flowering season, now it looks grass withered wood white, lifeless.

The queen did not squint, and her feet in delicate gilded phoenix boots hurried through the path in front of the hall, looking like two people when she had just given birth.

Stretching out her hand to push open the delicate carved palace door, Abe Romeo was about to step into her sister's dormitory, when her head was raised, and something instantly came into view, and she was immediately frightened and took a step back and screamed.

The maids and female officials who were waiting outside the door heard the queen's exclamation, and immediately rushed into the palace of Qiuhe without giving orders—

That afternoon, the harem of the palace sent out a hundred thousand urgent orders from Prince Yu: Concubine Chen of the harem hanged herself, and the queen saw her sister's corpse with her own eyes, was overly sad and fainted, and urgently summoned all the high-level medical elves in the imperial hospital to rush to the harem to treat the queen, and it was not allowed to be delayed, and the violators were killed immediately.

At the same time, Prince Yu sent his own Winged Spirit Rain Moth to the Great Temple of Ersomso, informed the Prime Minister of the matter, and asked for the Prime Minister's order.
