Xu Boqing recounted the incident of Jianyang's encounter with bandits a year ago, because of the starry night escape, he had not seen the appearance of the bandits, and the only clues given were time, place, and Jianyang's Xu family...

When they were sacked by thieves on the way to Beijing, the original owner was present to witness their murder, so he drew a few portraits of the thieves according to the memory of the original owner and confessed...

Examine!!

Although Daliang has a vast territory and few clues he gave, Dongchang and Jinyiwei have a mature information system, and the scope of influence is far more than just Kyoto!!

With money to open the way, and the big cake of 'the position of the governor' hanging, the team of the West Factory is naturally full of enthusiasm.

After receiving the order, they didn't even need to mention it, they went to move their joints, or investigate the files, find the corresponding information, or mobilize the secret agents under their hands to secretly explore...

It's like a delicate machine, when a command is given, one gear starts to turn, and the other gears follow suit...

Xu Boqing saw that the people below had dispersed and the sky was dark, so he also returned to Cining Palace...

The old eunuch who was guarding the door saw him come back, his eyes lit up, he leaned over with small steps, and said in a low voice: "Chief, the queen mother of Kunning Palace is visiting." ”

"The Queen?"

Xu Boqing paused when he heard this, stopped in front of the gate of Cining Palace, he glanced at the direction of the Queen Mother's bedroom, and asked quite incomprehensibly: "On this big night, what is the palace lady doing in our Cining Palace?" ”

"The villain doesn't know..."

The old eunuch who was guarding the door shook his head, then seemed to think of something, and whispered: "This afternoon, Concubine Liu Guifei of Yongning Palace also came to visit Niangniang, and asked the villain to bring you a message when she left." ”

"Liu Guifei has also been here?"

Xu Boqing was shocked and asked, "What did she ask you to bring?" ”

The old eunuch grinned and said meaningfully: "Concubine Liu said that Your Majesty rewarded a piece of jade, which is very exquisite, and I heard that Mr. Xu is an expert in this way, so I want to invite you to appreciate it." ”

“……”

Xu Boqing nodded silently.

What to appreciate jade, what to give the queen mother's jewelry, are all the code words set by Liu Guifei and him before.

He thought about it carefully, since Mr. Huang passed away, he didn't seem to have been to Yongning Palace, although Liu Guifei had visited many times, but she didn't taste the 'sweetness'...

I want to come and I want to come...

And now that Empress Zhang is still in Cining Palace, it is not easy for her to go to the Queen Mother's bedroom, and she will leave Beijing in a few days, so it is reasonable to appease Concubine Liu...

"It is ...... invited by Liu Guifei"

He pondered for a while, nodded and said: "It's better to choose a day than to hit the day, I'll go to Yongning Palace Liu Guifei to appreciate the jade, if the Queen Mother asks, you just report it truthfully." ”

"The villain's provincial..."

In the Yongning Palace...

Liu Guifei sat in front of the dresser in a daze with her hands on her cheeks.

At noon, Empress Zhang came to visit, and when she chatted, she accidentally talked about interesting things in the martial arts arena, and when she heard that Xu Boqing appeared in front of the saint and subdued more than a dozen martial arts masters with a hand of 'flying dragon in the sky', she was annoyed and resentful.

Annoyed that he was not there, and that he could not see the majestic posture of the thief;

The complaint is that the thief has been ruthless, and he has not come to visit him for several months since the death of Mr. Huang, and he only teaches people to panic.

But when I think of all the things before, especially when I was playing in the bath, I felt sweet to the heart, not to mention the body, but the tip of the heart was tickled and unbearable...

When Empress Zhang left, she couldn't wait to go to Cining Palace, but she was empty and didn't see anyone.

and my sister cried, and let people pass the message to the thief before returning to the palace and waiting.

It's an afternoon...

Liu Guifei glanced at the sky outside the window, saw that the stars and moon had been hung in the night, and secretly thought that the little thief would not come again.

She sighed resentfully, took off her hairpin, took off her fancy clothes, took off her middle clothes, and looked at the beautiful people in the mirror, but she felt more and more aggrieved...

Gu Ying felt sorry for herself for a while...

With a long sigh, Liu Guifei's misty eyes gradually came back to her senses.

She walked lightly over the curtain, and tested the water temperature of the bath with her pink and delicate toes, feeling that the water temperature was just right, and then she stepped into the bath with peace of mind.

Fill a scoop of soup with petals with the water ladle in your hand, raise your neck of powder, and pour it on yourself.

The water flows over the hill like a waterfall, and the petals also slide down on the skin, the petals lining the skin are pink and tender, and the petals are also lining the skin milky white...

The two complement each other beautifully.

At that moment, the window opened silently...

A figure wearing a gilded python suit quietly climbed in from the window, and the person who came crossed the curtain and saw the enchanting back and laughed: "The concubine is so interested~"

Liu Guifei's delicate body trembled when she heard the familiar voice, and the water ladle used to hold the soup also slipped out of her hand.

She turned around and saw the longing thief standing by the curtain, staring at her with burning eyes...

Hurriedly wrapped his arms in front of him to protect his chest.

Seeing that the thief's eyes were even hotter, his burning skin was a little itchy, and his interest seemed to be higher...

She raised her pink neck and pretended to be indifferent and said, "How can Governor Xu, a busy man, have time to come to this palace?" ”

Xu Boqing could hear the resentment in her words, and sneered: "Not long ago, Mr. Huang passed away, and as a junior, I naturally have to wear filial piety for his old man. ”

As he spoke, he was still undressing.

"Tut-tut......"

Liu Guifei snorted a few times jokingly, and said in a hidden needle: "Today's concubine has heard the story of Lord Xu's 'flying dragon suppressing more than ten martial arts masters in the sky'. ”

Her voice paused, and she sighed with self-pity: "I only hate the shallow fate of the concubines, and I couldn't be present to witness the heroic appearance of the overseer~"

"It's never too late to see it now~~"

The silence in the room was broken by the sound of falling water......

……………

On the other side, in the dormitory of the Empress Dowager of Cining Palace.

The two girls sat on the edge of the phoenix, and Empress Zhang's eyes were red and she took Empress Dowager Chen's hand and cried: "Sister, you should know, the emperor has been well-behaved since he was a child and has a kind heart, how could he collude with that rebellion?" Someone must have done him a ......."

"Don't cry, don't cry..."

Empress Dowager Chen didn't feel good in her heart, so she wiped her tears with a handkerchief, and said with relief: "The emperor was already annoyed when he was assassinated, and there were traitors who made trouble from it, so it would be good to wait for the emperor to be angry." ”

"Pity my prince who has been well-behaved since he was a child, how can he suffer from this sin?"

Empress Zhang's voice paused, and she sobbed and said, "I came to disturb my sister today, but I actually have something to ask for." ”

"Alas......"

Empress Dowager Chen sighed and said, "The emperor is angry, don't say that the mourning family is not the emperor's biological mother, but it won't help you." ”

"I know..."

Empress Zhang gently wiped the corners of her eyes, and said softly and weakly: "I don't want to bother my sister, the one who can help is Xu Boqing Xu, the manager of your palace." ”

"Xu Boqing..."

Empress Dowager Chen's heart tightened, as if she had thought of something, she subconsciously shook her head and refused: "Although Xu Boqing has been in the palace for a short time, his feelings for Mr. Huang are extremely deep.

Mr. Huang was victimized by those assassins, but I am afraid that he does not want to cause trouble in this matter..."

"It's okay..."

Empress Zhang's eyes moved slightly, and a secret smile suddenly appeared on her face, and she whispered in the ear of Empress Dowager Chen: "If I expected, Xu Boqing should go to Concubine Liu at this time, and most likely he won't come back tonight..."

“……”

Empress Dowager Chen's breath stagnated.

"Sister doesn't want the matter between you to be known to outsiders, right?"

Seeing her good sister's expression, Empress Zhang was even more convinced of her guess, and said meaningfully: "I'm going to spend the night at my sister's place today, and I'm bothering my sister Ming'er to help me introduce Master Xu, I believe he will help me." ”

"You !!"
