Across half of the garden, Concubine Shu immediately discovered the Queen Mother and others.

With a look of surprise on her face, Concubine Shu tightened her steps slightly, and when she came to the Queen Mother, she saluted respectfully.

"At this hour," she asked with a smile, "how did you get out of Cining Palace?" ”

The Queen Mother said, "Why are you here?" ”

"The concubine didn't sleep well all night, and the rain last night was too disturbing," Concubine Shu took the place of the palace maid and supported the queen mother, "The concubine thought that you were also annoyed by the rain before, so she thought of coming to see you." It would be better if you were still asleep, and if you woke up, the concubine would have breakfast with you. ”

"It's still you're careful," the Queen Mother said lightly, "The mourning family has nothing to do, and you wake up when you wake up." You go back first. ”

When Concubine Shu heard this, her face turned embarrassed, and she hesitated: "You want to take a walk in the garden?" Concubines accompany you. ”

The Queen Mother looked at her twice: "That's it, you can follow." ”

After speaking, the Queen Mother walked away.

Concubine Shu helped her and followed all the way, without asking the destination.

She actually knew where the Queen Mother was going.

Concubine Shu can be like a fish in water in Cining Palace, how can she not have a little eyeliner?

The little palace maid who was in charge of sprinkling and sweeping outside the palace gate was the one who reported to her.

Therefore, Fu Jieyu entered Cining Palace, and not long after, the prince went out in a hurry, and another person went to the direction of the Middle Palace, and these messages quickly reached the ears of Concubine Shu.

The concubine, who was sleeping in a daze, was dozing away in an instant.

Concubine Shu didn't know what Fu Jieyu had complained about, but it was only a few cases that made the queen mother anxious to find the queen when the sky was not dawn.

The group walked outside the middle palace and happened to meet Queen Cheng.

Empress Cheng greeted the Queen Mother: "Erchen is about to go over, and I don't want my mother to come behind." ”

"If you meet here, let's go back to the mourner's house." The Queen Mother said coldly.

The queen nodded spontaneously.

Concubine Shu helped the Queen Mother to walk, and when she passed by the Queen, she glanced at each other.

Eyes are staggered, very quickly, and closed at the touch of a button.

Empress Cheng saw the solemnity in the eyes of the concubine.

The comers are not good.

In the distance, an inner servant hurriedly ran to report the news: "The queen mother, the queen, the thieves outside are attacking the city, and the defenders are sworn to defend the capital division, please rest assured." ”

Empress Cheng clenched her fingers and returned to Cining Palace with the Empress Dowager.

Mammies serve tea and snacks.

The Queen Mother's fingertips tapped on the table and asked, "Among the palace maids who came with you, is there a woman named Fang Rui?" ”

When Mama Zhong heard this, she subconsciously looked at Queen Cheng.

Empress Cheng pursed her lower lip.

As soon as Fang Rui was mentioned, she completely understood the Queen Mother's intentions.

That night, Mrs. Yongning Hou left the palace, and she was exposed.

"Fang Rui," Empress Cheng remained silent and said indifferently, "I left the palace last month." ”

The Queen Mother raised her eyebrows: "Out of the palace?" ”

"Yes," said Queen Cheng, "a letter from home asked when she would be able to leave the palace, and wanted her to return to her hometown to marry. ”

"It's a coincidence," the Queen Mother snorted coldly, "It's a sad family, the last thing I don't believe is this word 'Qiao'!" ”

Empress Cheng raised her eyes and looked at the Queen Mother: "Why did the Queen Mother say this?" What's wrong with Fangrui? ”

"She has a fellow villager surnamed Li, who is a palace gate guard?" The Queen Mother asked again.

Queen Cheng thought about pretending to be stupid, and when she heard this, she wouldn't answer indiscriminately.

"Really? Erchen didn't know," said Queen Cheng, who turned her head and asked Mama Zhong again, "Do you know about this?" ”

Mama Zhong lowered her eyes and said, "The slave has never heard of it. ”

Empress Cheng faced the Queen Mother again: "The sons really don't know, why is the Queen Mother asking this?" ”

"I know you won't admit it," the Queen Mother urged Mama Xia, "What about Guard Li?" Hurry up and bring it here. ”

The atmosphere was deadlocked.

Even my breath was tight.

At the same time, on the city wall, Wan Cheng didn't dare to take a big breath.

Although he grew up in troubled times, he had never encountered two armies so closely.

Looking out from the corner tower, the ladder car can almost directly hook the city wall.

Bao Kui shouted to block the enemy army's hypothetical ladder, and for a while, the city wall was in chaos.

In the chaos, I don't know who shouted: "The car crashed into the city gate!" ”

Bao Kui almost jumped.

He couldn't believe his ears.

I didn't see the rushing car at all before, and even if there were, it should have been at the rear of the enemy's army, why did all of a sudden the rushing car go around to the front and have already crashed?

It's all to blame!

It was pitch black and foggy.

If it's summer, it's not even the beginning of the day, and the sky will be bright!

Bao Kui was so anxious that he didn't care about the danger or not, and most of his body threw himself out of the city wall, wanting to take a look in the direction of the city gate.

It's a pity that nothing can be seen clearly.

Even, the rumbling sound of rushing the car and hitting the door, in the mess, he didn't hear it.

Several soldiers were afraid that Bao Kui would fall, so they rushed up, some grabbed their arms, some hugged their round waists, and some dragged their thighs, stunned to pull Bao Kui back.

Wan Cheng saw this situation, understood it, and rushed out with his head covered, grabbing Bao Kui's belt with one hand and pulling the waist card with the other.

Several people exerted their strength, and when they fell back to the city wall, everyone fell on their backs.

Taking advantage of the chaos, Wan Cheng hid the ripped waist card in his sleeve and stepped back to prevent Bao Kui from seeing him.

Bao Kui fell not lightly, and he really didn't have the heart to see who dragged him back one by one, let alone found that the waist card was ripped away.

His attention was all on the enemy.

Wan Cheng rubbed his aching arm and rushed down the city wall from the other step.

Since the rushing cars have arrived at the city gate, as long as the latch is removed, the rushing car can crash open the city gate!

He hurried to the city gate.

Dozens of guards stood inside the door, very serious.

Surprisingly, none of them went to the top gate, and the gate did not move at all, and there was no trace of being struck at all.

Wan Cheng was shocked.

However, the guards all saw him: "Who is it?" ”

It is impossible to hide, Wan Chengxin took out his waist card, and said: "There is a shortage of manpower on the city wall, and the commander will let you all go to the city wall!" ”

Guards, look at me, look at you, obviously don't understand this order.

"We're all gone, what are we going to do here?" Someone asked.

"The guards at the North Gate will be there soon," Wan Cheng said indiscriminately, "Is it time to explain?" Hurry, hurry! ”

Military orders really do not allow for detailed questioning.

The person who gave the order in front of him, although he was not wearing a battle robe, looked like an errand in the yamen.

Moreover, the token is clearly in front of you.

They stopped asking and ran briskly.

Wan Cheng watched them leave, and the other soldiers nearby were also very busy, and no one cared about him.

His heart almost jumped out of his throat, and as soon as he turned his back and walked under the city gate, he fell to the ground, and a man appeared behind him, and grabbed him by the neck from behind.
