Concubine Shu hurriedly returned to the palace, changed her clothes, and hurried again.

Walking all the way to the verandah, although it is longer than the road straight through, fortunately, you don't have to worry about not being able to see the puddle when it's dark.

When she entered Cining Palace, she repressed her steps and slowly entered.

Entering the inner hall, the ladies were setting the table.

The queen mother glanced at her: "The mourning family still thinks you won't come to dinner." ”

"Go slowly, let you, the emperor and Mrs. Hou wait for a long time," Concubine Shu smiled softly, "I don't dare to go fast, I'm afraid of splashing water again." ”

"Come and sit."

Concubine Shi Shi went over and sat down.

The emperor's gaze slid over the hem of her clothes and shoes, clean and clean, but thinking about how careful she was along the way, it was no wonder that she was so slow.

The palace man poured wine.

The emperor raised the wine cup and said to Mrs. Yongning Hou: "I respect Mrs. Marquis with a glass." ”

Mrs. Hou also raised her glass.

She wasn't worried about poisoning in the food and drinks.

If you really want to use such a straightforward method that doesn't care about face, the emperor has already done it, so why bother to bother until now.

I'm afraid that there will be something sleeping and out of strength in it, and that is what makes people suffer and can't say it.

The wine cup was raised, brought to his lips, and leaned against the cuffs to cover it, slightly oblique.

The drink ran down his sleeves and soaked the veil inside.

When I put it down again, there wasn't a drop left in the cup.

She learned this technique from a young age.

There is no rival in the galloping wine field, except for real guys like good drink, you also have to know all kinds of tricks.

Otherwise, she is very sincere and sincere, and she drinks wine when she has it, and can she drink those tricks?

Only by knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can one not be defeated.

The emperor is high, he appreciates wine, and no one dares to play tricks.

Less knowledge, of course, can't see through.

He didn't find Mrs. Hou's tricks, and praised "good drinking" and "heroic".

The Queen Mother moved her chopsticks.

Mrs. Yongning Hou also said "use more", she only used the dishes that the emperor had touched.

The atmosphere in the banquet seems to be harmonious, but there is an undercurrent underneath, and Mrs. Hou herself knows it.

She is ready to sacrifice, but who wants to sit idly by if she can fight?

At this hour, everyone else had already withdrawn from the city.

After a while, when the city gate is closed, the Ji family will also follow her explanation and let everyone set off first.

I just don't know what kind of situation Aluan is in now......

Hula –

It's windy again.

Xu was not strong enough in the afternoon thunderstorm, and in the distance, two more thunders came.

"Isn't it going to rain again...... Lady sighed.

"It's really uncomfortable," said Madame Hou, frowning, and complaining, "and when I have eaten this wine, I'd better go back, lest it rain again." ”

The emperor raised his eyes.

The queen mother's heart moved, and she persuaded: "If it rains, it will rain, so that people will go back to the house to report a message, and you can live here in the mourning house." ”

"Huh," Mrs. Hou couldn't let the palace send people, "Then look again, it's really raining, let's decide." ”

Concubine Shu chewed slowly, but she was anxious in her heart.

I don't know what the queen mother has come up with......

Just as he was thinking about it, all of a sudden, there was the sound of hurried footsteps outside.

Soon, a chamberlain came in without waiting for the transmission, and said eagerly: "No, it's not good, Changning Palace is gone." ”

All the figures were stunned.

"What's going on?" The emperor came back to his senses, "Isn't it powerful?" ”

Without waiting for the attendant to answer, an exclamation came from outside.

The emperor got up, walked out quickly, stood in the courtyard, and looked north.

In the dark sky, the fire was not heavy, and the black smoke was soaring into the sky.

Changning Palace is in the very corner of the imperial city.

After the death of the first emperor, it was suspended there, and then it was vacant.

Because it is a resting place, although it is not inhabited, it has to be cleaned and repaired every year.

It's just that one place, and it's burning.

"Didn't it just rain?" The emperor's face sank, "Has anyone gone to save it?" Don't hurry up and save it! ”

Concubine Shu helped the Queen Mother and also went to the courtyard.

Looking at the thick black smoke, the Queen Mother's heart went up and down.

Concubine Shu looked frightened, and said softly: "Niangniang, Changning Palace is separated from here by a palace, will it burn over?" ”

The Queen Mother said: "With so many people, can you still save the fire?" ”

"But this wind today," Concubine Shu pressed her throat and coughed heavily, coughing so much that her eyes were red, "It's too rushing." ”

When she said this, the Queen Mother also felt uncomfortable and cleared her throat.

"Otherwise, go to my place and rest for a while, and when the fire is extinguished, it will not be too late to come back." Concubine Shu persuaded the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother thought about it and responded.

Concubine Shu went to see the emperor again.

The emperor blushed and said, "I went over and took a look, you take care of the queen mother." ”

After speaking, he flicked his sleeves and strode in the direction of Changning Palace.

"You take care of the emperor!" Concubine Shu raised her voice, waved her hand, pointed to a large area, and then helped the queen mother, and said, "The road is still a little wet, you watch your feet, I will help you......"

The people brought by the emperor left with the emperor.

The people of Cining Palace either went to help extinguish the fire, or went with the queen mother.

All of a sudden, there were fewer people in this palace.

Mrs. Hou stood in the courtyard, looking at the billowing smoke, and pulled a sarcastic smile.

In this situation, either someone helped her, or she had long eyes, in short, she found an opportunity.

Taking advantage of the fact that the emperor and the queen mother remembered the fire and no one remembered her for a while, Mrs. Hou strode out of Cining Palace and ran all the way to the palace gate.

The good foundation when I was young, and the exercise in recent months, have been quite effective.

Mrs. Hou ran fast and steadily, not at all like an old woman.

Approaching the palace gate, seeing that the guards were about to close the door, Mrs. Hou hurriedly beckoned, "Wait a minute." ”

The guard's hand, holding on to the palace gate, hesitated.

The door is still closed.

Mrs. Hou stepped forward and said, "I want to leave the palace." ”

The guard said, "Look, it's time. ”

"Open the seam, don't you just go out?" Seeing that the guard did not cooperate, Mrs. Hou's eyes widened, and she said, "Don't let me go, I'm not afraid of sleeping in the open air on the palace road for the night, do you dare to let me lie here?" ”

The guard's face turned white.

Mrs. Hou said again: "Do you see the water there?" The emperor and the queen mother are busy, and I will let the two of them comment on the matter of whether to sleep in the palace or not? ”

Where do the guards dare?

Just as he was hesitating, the guards who had changed shifts arrived.

One of the older ones, without saying a word, opened a crack with all his might.

"Please." He said.

Mrs. Hou bowed her head at him and thanked him.

When she came out, the crack in the door behind her closed again, heavy.

Inside the door, a group of guards look at me, I look at you, and the old man said, "It's not appropriate, right?" ”

"What's not suitable?" The man hung his son and said, "Mrs. Yongninghou, can you and I provoke you?" Hurry up and send it away as a bodhisattva, won't it be all right? Or do you want to ask the emperor? Save it, kick you to carry water to put out the fire! ”

This is quite reasonable, and no one is entangled in it immediately.

After all, it is Mrs. Yongning Hou, who looks fierce and vicious, and her husband sings with her wife.

I can't afford to mess with it!

As for firefighting, forget it.

Thankless work.
