Chapter 6: Exploring the Palace at Night

Chapter VI

Late at night, Congsi was neatly disguised, wearing a black night suit and leaping out of Mengliangju.

Mengliang Residence is located in the middle of Qixiang Street, the geographical location is excellent, the view is wide, although this is the closest street to the palace, although the guard is quite strict on weekdays, but it is also easy to hide the traces.

At this time, the curfew time has not arrived, taking advantage of the noise of the night market and the noise of the crowd, the silk is as light as a swallow and passes through the eaves and high walls, leaving no trace, and no one pays attention to the black shadow that disappears in an instant from the heights.

Tonight, the destination she was going to was the palace not far away.

Before she could get closer, she saw the soldiers standing guard on the city wall. Naturally, she is not stupid, and she will have the audacity to enter through the palace gate.

Quietly came to a no-man's corner, looked around, and made sure that there was no one.

Entering it, it is still just staying in the outer court, although the place is a little remote, but it is a small forest. Not far in front is a small palace, there is no one in it, and there is no candle light.

Taking advantage of the night, Congsi continued to move forward quietly, avoiding many forbidden army guards, and after a stick of incense, he finally came to the inner court.

It is not like a foreign court, but it is more exquisite, a combination of palaces and gardens, the scale is grand, magnificent, and the whole building complex is like a sea of palaces.

The red walls, the golden glazed tiles, and the countless candles are shining brightly and reflecting the colorful light. In the golden soup building, the white carved jade floats, the fragrant pine and purple bamboo, and even the Beique Immortal Palace and Yaochi Qiongge in the book have to be looked at.

From the silk stepping on the starlight, fly all the way to the Baguio Palace.

She sneaked in, quickly passing through the west tower and the side hall, and finally appeared on the roof of the main hall.

In the hall, several palace maids gathered in a group to serve the glamorous palace maid in the middle.

I saw that the woman's green silk was like a waterfall hanging down the ground, and the pink and purple embroidered hundred butterfly silk skirt on her body was spread, and the placket of her chest was hooked with fine lace. The face is slightly powdered, and all the rest of the jewelry is removed, and the forehead is dotted with pink flowers, a pair of watery eyes are like stars, the neck is stretched, and the red lips are not fresh.

Nourished by the three years of court conditions, she became more and more charming and charming.

Concubine Yun was reading a book by candlelight at this time, and suddenly heard two nightingale cries outside, clear and far-reaching, with a very wide vocal range.

In an instant, her beautiful eyes widened, and her figure moved slightly.

The big palace maid beside her saw it and hurriedly approached: "Niangniang, but you were scared?" Today is the summer solstice, there are a lot of insects and birds outside, and the slave will be carefully cleaned up tomorrow, so as not to disturb the mother! ”

"It's okay, it's just that the palace is a little tired just now, and when I hear such a crisp birdsong, I feel sober." Concubine Yun came back to her senses, and her face was full of gloom.

Then she continued: "You wait, there is no need to keep vigil in the palace tonight, and the palace will sleep after a while." ”

When the surrounding palace maids heard this, they respectfully obeyed: "Yes!" Empress! ”

After the rest of the people in the hall went out, he quietly entered the room, looked at the familiar woman in front of him, and suddenly choked a little.

"You're here?!" Concubine Yun smiled softly, and her joy spread to the corners of her eyes.

"Hmm." Nodding lightly from the silk.

"Sit down, I haven't seen you for many years, you are really still the same as before, but I ...... Got you down, didn't you? Concubine Yun's expression was unknown.

Congsi took off the black mask, revealing the hidden face with clear eyebrows: "Maybe, but it doesn't matter anymore." ”

"As, I had to do the choice I made back then. And now, after really staying in this deep palace for three years, I have found that the world outside the palace is far more beautiful and free. ”

"Oh? Is it? I thought that as soon as you entered the deep palace, you would be a new life, and you would never have anything to do with the rivers and lakes from now on. ”

Concubine Yun smiled bitterly: "It's me who is extremely naΓ―ve." Born in the rivers and lakes, grew up in the rivers and lakes, how can it be that there is nothing to do with it? ”

"Let the people of the Chongyi faction go to you, I am also forced to do so. But I didn't mean to implicate you in the Tianning Treasure, but I had another secret. ”

Congsi raised her eyebrows: "There is another secret? ”

"In a few months, I will give birth. When my baby is born...... He'll be replaced......"

"So, your real purpose is for me to help you secretly?" From Silk looked at her bulging belly asked.

Concubine Yun smiled: "The Tianning treasure is just a lie, I have visited this place with you many years ago. And this time it set off a storm again, and the things planned behind it ...... It's huge...... And my soon-to-be-born child will also be implicated. ”

"In the past, when I wandered the world and killed people like mustard, I never thought that my future fate would be entangled with the palace, let alone that I would become a mother."

"I have too many unspeakable grievances, and the fate of my life is destined to be manipulated, so I don't want my unborn child to go down this path, which will be ......unfortunate after all."

Hearing this, Cong Si was angry: "Then you still smiled and told me that you wanted to enter the palace?" ”

"I can't escape...... The fate of me and yours is fundamentally different. In the past so many years, I still envy you so much, even if you are born in Dongyan Building, you have enough freedom and power to protect yourself and stabilize your life. ”

"But I'm different, but I'm different......" Concubine Yun muttered distractedly.

looked at the woman who used to support each other with herself, but now she is showing endless embarrassment, and she is full of sorrow in her heart, but she doesn't know where to start.

After a long time, Congsi broke the relative silence of the two: "Forget it, I will help you then." No matter what the plans of the people behind it are in the future, you must remember to keep your life for the master, and you must not forget that your life was saved by me. ”

Before the words fell, Concubine Yun rarely raised a smile: "Thank you, your kindness, I will never repay it!" ”

Cong Si Leng snorted and put on a stinky face: "Since this is the case, then you must keep your life and repay me in the future, I am the number one killer of Dongyan Building, which is much more expensive than your title of 'Concubine Yun'." ”

Concubine Yun was not angry: "Yes, yes, what you said is right......"

Tonight, I broke into the palace from the silk night, one was to see Qin Yueqing, and the other was to see the map and key of Tianning's treasure.

Concubine Yun didn't hide much, took out a detailed drawing of the layout of the palace, and told Cong Silk Road that the map and key of Tianning's treasure were in the Qiongluan Palace, but it was heavily guarded, and there were guards by the Imperial Forest Army day and night, so there must be a lot of machinery in it.

From the slightest clue, just try your best to take it, you will not take risks.

Familiar with the handling of things, Concubine Yun was a little relieved, and she continued to persuade: "At that time, the map and key can be given directly to the people of the Chongyi faction, you don't follow along to explore the treasure, you also know that it is a conspiracy." ”

From the corner of the silk mouth smiled slightly: "I know, my mother, I spare my life very much, and I will never send her to death." Besides, I have saved so much money in the bank, what a pity if I don't spend it and die? ”

Concubine Yun stroked her bulging abdomen and laughed, and sure enough, she was still her......
