Just after the end of the day, this palace banquet also came to an end.

Just like the silence after every pomp and circumstance, this one is no exception. The palace people of Ning Palace spent three months preparing for the glory of these few hours, and behind this glamorous and glamorous, the masters were infinitely beautiful, but the minions were going to continue to clean up the mess.

The Empress Dowager Qin was too old to stand the noise and left the table early, and Shen Ze left the next moment when the Empress Dowager left, so she left with no one next to Mrs. Li and went back to Changming Palace to make love.

Only the vassal kings and courtiers looked at each other, always feeling that the main masters were gone, and it was not interesting for them to stay here, so they also took their own excuses and left.

Shen Che seemed to be drunk, walking staggeringly, pressing the weight of his entire body on Jiang Yi's body, and the two of them walked all the way towards the palace gate with difficulty.

"Your Highness, slow down, the carriage is here!" Jiang Yi said while helping Shen Che, showing Shen Che the way.

"Yo, the seventh brother looks drunk, and I haven't seen him drink much during the banquet, the amount of alcohol is so bad, how can you drink with your brother when you turn around?" King Jing Shen Xun also looked drunk, but he seemed to be a little better than Shen Che, and he could still speak clearly.

"Fourth brother, aren't you also drunk? I haven't seen you for so many years, and your alcohol consumption seems to have deteriorated a lot. When Biwang Shen Hong heard this, he laughed, and when he said this, he seemed to look down on King Jing and King Yi.

After all, looking at the seven vassal kings, this Bi King Shen Hong is the most normal one, he drank a lot of wine during the banquet, almost everyone came to toast, and he did not refuse to come, but even so, he did not see him drunk in the slightest.

The others did not want to speak, and seemed to be very tired, and each climbed into his carriage and headed for the royal palace.

King Hao's carriage had already swayed and taken the first step, and the rest of the people followed closely behind, but Shen Che hadn't climbed into the carriage yet. And at this time, a slightly cold voice sounded on the side of the carriage, it was Aunt Jinxiu.

"His Royal Highness King Yi, Mrs. Jiang, the Queen Mother has a decree, saying that His Royal Highness is drunk and should not be bumpy, and asked Madame to help His Royal Highness to the palace, and the slave maid has ordered someone to clean up the palace and let His Highness and Madame live. Jinxiu said in a respectful tone, and his attitude was very sincere.

This is Aunt Jinxiu's consistent style, no matter who the person in front of her is or what kind of identity she has, she just does her part, so for so many years, there has never been a mistake.

Jiang Yi listened to Jinxiu's words, and was a little undecided for a while, she turned her head to look at Shen Che, and wanted to ask his opinion, but she remembered that Shen Che should be drunk now, and she couldn't ask anything.

In an instant, countless thoughts flashed through Jiang Yi's mind. She thought that if she stayed in the palace, she would be under the surveillance of the Empress Dowager Qin, so that no matter what she did, she had to be careful and not make a mistake, otherwise she would fall into the hands of the Empress Dowager Qin. But if you refuse Aunt Jinxiu now, wouldn't it just let the Empress Dowager Qin grab a handle to resist disobedience?

After thinking about it, Jiang Yi felt that she could delay it for a while, anyway, it was just a night in the palace, as long as she and Shen Che were cautious, there shouldn't be any problems.

Thinking of this, she nodded, and said to Aunt Jinxiu with a smile: "The Queen Mother has a heart, since this is the case, I will bother Aunt Jinxiu to lead the way." ”

"Madame, you're welcome, this is a matter for slaves and maids, please come here. Jinxiu said, and then ordered the two little eunuchs to help Shen Che, and then led Shen Che and Jiang Yi towards the palace.

It was already very late, and after all the courtiers left the Fenglai Shui Pavilion, the palace gate was locked, and the forbidden army dutifully guarded the palace gate, and the people inside couldn't get out, and the people outside couldn't easily enter.

And Shen Che and Jiang Yi, because of the edict of the Empress Dowager Qin, were left in the palace and became trapped beasts in this cage.

The palace prepared by the Empress Dowager is called Ganquan Palace, which is where the young Empress Dowager Jiang lived when the first emperor was alive in the past, and now it is used for Shen Che and Jiang Yi to live, which can be regarded as making the best use of things.

When Shen Che was young, he also lived here for a few years, until the first emperor died and the new emperor ascended the throne, he moved out of here with his mother and went to Yiguo, which was thousands of miles away.

Ganquan Palace is still the same as in the past, it still retains the appearance in Shen Che's memory, and it seems that nothing has changed over the years. Come to think of it, the Empress Dowager Qin has been busy controlling the power in Shen Ze's hands for so many years, and has been busy creating the glory of her Qin family, where can she have time to take care of these small things?

"Madam, this is the dormitory of Ganquan Palace, the Queen Mother said, please Your Highness and Mrs. rest here. Aunt Jinxiu said, "In addition, the Queen Mother asked the slave maid to tell Madame, saying that Mrs. Hui has a blue heart, and will take good care of His Royal Highness King Yi, and invite Mrs. to Jianzhang Palace early tomorrow morning, and the Queen Mother will be rewarded." ”

"Jianzhang Palace?" Jiang Yi's heart tightened, but he tried his best to maintain the previous smile on his face, and admitted, "Yes, Aunt Lao told me, I know, I will definitely arrive at Jianzhang Palace on time tomorrow morning." ”

Aunt Jinxiu nodded, and left a few palace maids and eunuchs to wait for the dispatch, and then left Ganquan Palace and went back to report to the Queen Mother.

In the dormitory of Ganquan Palace, there were only two people left, Shen Che and Jiang Yi, and after a long silence, Shen Che opened his eyes and stared at the curtain above his head, his eyes were clear, and he was not half drunk.

Jiang Yi looked at Shen Che like this, and was a little surprised: "You're not drunk, then why are you pretending to be drunk? Now it's okay, the Empress Dowager Qin made an excuse to stay in the palace, and we have to be controlled by others everywhere again." ”

Shen Che sighed and said, "I just deliberately pretended to be drunk to stay in the palace." You have to find a way to keep an eye on those palace maids and eunuchs at the door, I'm going to go out. ”

"You're crazy! This is Ning Palace, not in our Yiguo! Do you still think that Empress Dowager Qin hasn't tempted you enough? If you are like this, sooner or later you will be exposed!" Jiang Yi couldn't understand the intention of Shen Che's actions at all, and she didn't seem to be able to find anything else to say except for objections and complaints.

And Shen Che didn't want to explain to Jiang Yi anymore, he missed the days when he talked with smart people very much, and he couldn't help but think of Yun Yao and Lu Yingquan in his mind, and then shook his head and sighed.

"Alright, if you don't want to die here, do as I say. Put away your curiosity and opposition, and cooperate with me to survive tonight, and when you return to Yiguo, the queen's position will be yours. Shen Che looked at Jiang Yi coldly, and said these words lightly.

Jiang Yi originally wanted to say something more, but when she heard Shen Che mention the word "queen", all the dissatisfaction and doubts in her heart disappeared without a trace.

She has worked hard for so many years and done so many things, isn't it just for the position of the queen? What's more, even if she is not very clear about what Shen Che is plotting, she also knows that once Shen Che becomes the emperor of this Daning, then she will be the queen of the high and the mother of the world.

This glory is her lifelong pursuit, so she will not hesitate to follow Shen Che's words. However, she didn't know that the position of Queen Yi was not hers for a long time, long before Shen Che left Yi Kingdom, the edict and phoenix seal of the queen had already been handed over to Lu Yingquan.

Shen Che concealed the truth and took advantage of Jiang Yi. But this is nothing to him, if it is not the person he treats sincerely, there are only two kinds of people in his eyes, valuable and worthless. And Jiang Yi is just one of the valuable people.

The palace maids and eunuchs were guarding outside the dormitory, and because Ganquan Palace was uninhabited all year round, the defenders were lax, which just gave Shen Che a chance to leave.

Shen Che looked at the dark clothes on his body, walked to the window without saying a word, and jumped out of the window.

His purpose was to go to Changming Palace to find Shen Ze. Although the two brothers have been secretly communicating with each other, in order to avoid being discovered by the eyes and ears of the Empress Dowager Qin, the contact is not very frequent, so some things still have to be discussed in person.

Between Shen Che and Empress Dowager Qin, each has its own calculations.

The Empress Dowager Qin wanted to test Shen Che's details, but Shen Che couldn't find any flaws in what she said and did, so the Empress Dowager Qin would definitely start with Jiang Yi, because Jiang Yi seemed to be a good breakthrough.

And Shen Che took advantage of Empress Dowager Qin's thoughts. He concluded that the Empress Dowager Qin would definitely find an excuse to keep Jiang Yi in the palace, and instead of letting the Empress Dowager Qin find an excuse to catch him off guard, it would be better for him to take the initiative to send it to the door and pretend to be drunk to do what he liked. In this way, Empress Dowager Qin would definitely leave the two of them behind, and it just so happened that he could also take this opportunity to see Shen Ze.

Therefore, before Shen Che participated in the palace banquet today, he deliberately wore a dark shirt, this color looked like black in the dark night, and he couldn't see anything at all.

Shen Che's figure was running in the dark night, although he was not as familiar with Ning Palace as Yi Wang Palace, but Shen Ze had already told him all about the terrain and the distribution of the forbidden army here, so he was familiar with it by heart.

What's more, there are characters like Yun Yao and Gu Qingming around him, all of whom came out of the Ning Palace, so they naturally know everything about this place.

Successfully dodging several waves of patrolling forbidden troops, Shen Che slowly approached Changming Palace, like Gu Qingming in the past, jumped in through the back window, and went directly to Shen Ze's dormitory.

And in Changming Palace, the candlelight was gentle and gentle, and others didn't know what was going on, and they thought that the emperor and Mrs. Li were already entangled in the dormitory, but only Shen Ze knew in his heart that he was waiting, waiting for the person who should come.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew in the dormitory, and there was a dark figure in front of Shen Ze, it was Shen Che.

"Third brother, long time no see. Shen Che stood in front of Shen Ze and said with a smile, time seemed to be reversed many years ago, when the two brothers were still practicing martial arts and studying together.

When they were young, although Shen Che and Shen Ze were quite different in age, although their respective mothers were lifelong rivals, the two of them were the brothers with the most compatible personalities, together with Gu Qingming.

Although the first emperor has many heirs, and all of them are relatively good, but in count, the three who really have feelings are Shen Ze, Shen Che and Gu Qingming. That's why, in the midst of all the chaos, they can trust each other.

Because you understand, you understand.
