Li Zhaoyi was doing needlework with a peaceful expression under the dim candlelight.

The palace maid on the side said: "Niangniang, I heard that His Royal Highness the Seventh has been saved, you make so many cloaks, what if Your Highness can't use it?" ”

Li Zhaoyi pinched the embroidery needle, rubbed her dry eyes with the back of her hand, and continued the movements in her hand: "Thank you for the emperor's grace and the antidote for Huai Pity, I also hope that I am doing useless work-"

The palace maid sighed helplessly, and also assisted on the side.

When the emperor walked into Xian Yinxuan, he did not order the transmission, but stood quietly outside the window and looked at Li Zhaoyi, who was dressed more simply than the aunt in charge of Zhong Cui Palace, and felt a bad feeling in his heart.

"Ahh Ah-" The palace maid Qingxun finished the embroidery work in her hand, and when she looked up to look for scissors, she saw a figure standing outside the window.

Xian Yinxuan has not been here for a long time, and she only thinks that she has seen a ghost, and she can't help but exclaim.

Li Zhaoyi followed her gaze and looked back, and when she saw the emperor standing outside the window, she rubbed her eyes unconsciously.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty? The concubine has seen Your Majesty! ”

panicked for a moment, and Li Zhaoyi immediately saluted.

"Flat." The emperor walked in, and his tone was intriguing: "I only care about making clothes for the seventh child, how long has it been since I received the clothes made by Concubine Ai?" ”

"Concubine—"

Li Zhaoyi hung her head in shame.

Gonggong Su retreated with a smile, and instructed the eunuchs standing outside the palace gate, "Your Majesty will stay at Xian Yinxuan tonight, you should go back first." ”

……

Ning Shu's eyelids jumped hard, and she always felt that something bad was about to happen.

She stood in front of the main entrance of the Guogong Mansion and kept looking.

"Girl, the adults should be back soon, why don't you rest first?"

Ning Shu shook her head, she was now more than just eyelids, even her heartbeat was accelerating.

"Yuan Wu, you go and pick up the adult."

Yuan Wu didn't think about it, and left.

Xuan Feng stood quietly aside, holding a long sword in his hand, and his eyes kept wandering in the alley outside the Guogong Mansion.

Ning Shu's footsteps suddenly paused, she turned her eyes to look at one place, and her disordered mind also calmed down.

It turned out that she was here!

No wonder she was upset!

Ning Shu smiled and turned to Xuan Feng and said, "Xuan Feng, I'm thirsty, you go and pour me a cup of tea." ”

Xuan Feng looked around, didn't see or feel that someone was nearby, so he bowed his head slightly and entered the Guogong Mansion.

As soon as the others left, Ning Shu couldn't wait to look at the darkness.

Sure enough, a ghostly black shadow was slowly walking towards her.

Her whole body shrunk under the black robe, making it impossible to see her appearance clearly, but Ning Shu knew that she was the Great Elder of Miao Jiang.

And just now, the Great Elder was playing a trick on her.

The Vientiane Gu in her body defended against the Great Elder's Gu worms, so she was in a state of mind.

"The old woman has seen Mrs. Xie!" The Great Elder greeted Ning Shu softly.

She held a snake-headed cane in her hand, her head slightly raised, her wide hood swayed slightly, and under the shadow of the hood, her wrinkled eyes were glowing with a faint cold light.

It seems to be looking, and it seems to be tempting.

Ning Shu's indifferent gaze fell on her face, and a thin smile appeared at the corner of her mouth: "It turned out to be the messenger of Miao Jiang." ”

The witch king is in retreat all year round, and the great elder ghost woman is half of her master.

Honestly, her Gu technique can have today's creation, and the ghost woman's credit is indispensable.

It's just that she doesn't know her real cause of death, whether it is related to the ghost woman, and she naturally can't put on a good face when facing the ghost woman.

The ghost woman was a little surprised by Ning Shu's calm expression, "Madame knows the old woman? ”

"I've met the Mid-Autumn Festival Palace banquet." Ning Shu sat in the crowd that day, and the Great Elder didn't notice her.

She nodded knowingly, "I see—the old woman has something to ask about, and she asks the lady to solve the old woman's doubts." ”

"Great Elder, but it doesn't hurt to say it."

Ning Shu stood on the steps in front of the mansion, looking down at the Great Elder who was only up to his waist, that kind of superior bearing and calm look, which made the Great Elder's eyes suddenly bloom, as if he had seen the previous Holy Maiden.

She hurriedly lowered her head, gathered the unrealistic illusions in her heart, and asked faintly, "Madame, have you ever been to Miaojiang?" ”

"No, I didn't."

"Madame, do you know about Gu arts?"

"I don't know."

"How can the lady sense where the old woman is?"

The ghost woman asked step by step, she was indeed curious.

When I was in Dali Temple before, I found Ning Shu's abnormality.

She just thought that she hadn't performed Gu magic for a long time, and the Gu worms were not properly controlled.

But with a hint of suspicion, she followed Ning Shu all the way to the Guogong Mansion, and she felt more and more that Ning Shu had a big problem.

Even just now, she hid in the dark and stabbed Ning Shu, Ning Shu didn't move at all, and she could even sense the direction she was in.

Also, the guard didn't even perceive the location where she was hiding, how did Ning Shu, who didn't know martial arts, perceive it?

Ning Shu narrowed her eyes, looked at the ghost woman and asked, "What the Great Elder said is the Gu worm I understand?" ”

"Yes." The Great Elder's hand holding the mahogany snake-headed cane couldn't help but tighten.

She only cared about surprise, but ignored the sneering smile on Ning Shu's face.

Ning Shu shook her head suddenly, and said to her, "I've never seen any Gu worms, and I don't know why the Great Elder has this question. ”

The Great Elder blurted out, "How did the lady find the old woman just now?" Didn't he deliberately push the guard away so that he could see the old woman? ”

Ning Shu's tone was full of sarcasm, "The Great Elder is standing there, staring at me directly, I can't ignore it?" Seeing that the Great Elder was reluctant to step forward for a long time, he deliberately took away Xuanfeng, could it be that the Great Elder still played a Gu on me? ”

"How dare the old woman—" The Great Elder's sharp eyes stared at Ning Shu's expression, trying to see something from her expression, but in the end it was all in vain.

She was already very close to Ning Shu, if Ning Shu was pregnant with Gu worms, as long as it wasn't Vientiane Gu, then she would definitely sense it.

But she didn't feel anything, and it was impossible for her to believe that there would be Vientiane Gu on Ning Shu's body, which couldn't help but deepen the doubts in her heart.

Ning Shu has been standing on a high place, and said lightly: "Maybe it's because I've been in bad health since I was a child, and I've eaten a lot of strange medicines at my grandfather's house, so ordinary poisons are useless to me." ”

The Great Elder didn't know Ning Shu's background, but this was indeed the best explanation.

In Miaojiang, there are also many exotic grasses that have an inhibitory effect on Gu insects.

If Ning Shu really defended against her Gu worms because of the medicine, then she had to study Ning Shu thoroughly.

The Great Elder's deep eyes suddenly lit up, like a hunter staring at his prey, eager to try.

However, she didn't know that high-end hunters often appeared in front of her in the form of prey.

Ning Shu evoked a meaningful smile, "I also have something to ask, and I also ask the Great Elder to solve my doubts." ”

Grand Elder: "Madame, please speak." ”

Ning Shu slowly walked down the steps and approached the Great Elder, her eyes deeper than the Great Elder.

"I still remember that the holy woman of Miaojiang is named Wu Yue, I don't know where that holy woman is?"
