Chapter 247: Entering the Palace Late at Night
"The prime minister is really powerful, and he thinks he is covering it up properly, but he didn't expect to be guessed by the prime minister."
Han Shu smiled, and he was indeed a little surprised in his heart.
"The rumors about the son of the Han family on the rivers and lakes, I guess it shouldn't be fake, right?" The prime minister didn't want to be too entangled with him about his identity, so he looked up at him and said, "What I just said, Han Gongzi should be able to do it, right?" ”
"Since the prime minister has said so, even if you can't do it, you should try your best," Han Shu smiled and said again, "But the prime minister, don't forget the agreement with me." ”
"Don't worry, once I sit in that position, the entire capital's commerce and trade will be developed by you," the prime minister smiled with satisfaction, and said his conditions without hesitation.
When Han Shu's purpose was achieved, he didn't stay here for a long time, and left here directly.
"The Prime Minister really wants to hand over all the business and trade to him for development? Isn't it a little unsafe to let their Han family dominate? ”
The subordinate slowly walked out from behind the screen and looked at the prime minister with some concern.
"It's just to coax him," the prime minister sneered, his eyes full of murderous intent.
When he really sat in that position, Han Shu would be the first person to die, after all, he wouldn't keep such a scourge.
The subordinate didn't speak, just nodded slightly and retired for the afternoon.
Outside the Prime Minister's Mansion, Han Shu sat in a carriage in the corner, looking at the girl opposite.
"Does the young master really want to do this?" Jiao Niang subconsciously clenched her hands, but tried her best to keep her face unchanged.
"The Prime Minister will definitely do those things that unload the mill and kill the donkey, but I just don't let him get his wish, since he will find out my identity, then I don't need to hide it."
Han Shu smiled slightly, stretched out his hand and picked up Jiao Niang's chin, "Jiao Niang, you are a smart person, you know what to do, right?" ”
"But with your identity, isn't it a little difficult to convince the public to sit in that position?" Jiao Niang's face changed, and she still didn't want Han Shu to do this.
"It's okay, isn't there still my teacher here?" Han Shu waved his hand nonchalantly, "What I can't do, the teacher will help me solve it, so you don't have to worry about these things." ”
"Yes," Jiao Niang lowered her eyes slightly, hiding the hesitation in her eyes.
If Han Shu can stop here, maybe he can still leave a life, but if he is so persistent, I am afraid that he will only end up with no bones left.
The carriage slowly moved forward, merging into the crowd in an instant, and then vanished.
At night, Cheng Shuiyao sat on the swing in the backyard, staring at the rope.
"Madam, it's cold outside, let's go back to the house and sit," Xiaoyun put on a cloak for her and spoke slowly.
Cheng Shuiyao shook her head, wandering boredly for a while, and just as she was about to go back to sleep, she saw Mo Shu walking in in a hurry with a face full of faces.
"Madam, something is wrong, the prime minister's men and horses have already assembled at the city gate, look like that, the palace will be forced tonight."
"How can it be so fast?" Cheng Shuiyao stood up instantly, ignoring the cloak that slipped off her shoulders, and hurriedly spoke, "Who is on duty at the city gate tonight?" ”
"Gu Feng," Mo Shu sighed, "He has already been bought by the prime minister, so it is estimated that he has already let people in at this time." ”
"That's not good!" Cheng Shuiyao frowned, "How many people can we use here now?" ”
"There are about two hundred secret guards left by the master, and each of them has good skills," Mo Shu hurriedly spoke, "Madame, but you want us to go to the palace to help?" ”
"I don't know how they plan to act for the time being, if we move first, we will put ourselves on the cusp," Cheng Shuiyao shook his head, "You gather the people first, and I will go to the palace now." ”
"At this time, the palace gates should have been locked," Mo Shu shook his head, "There are no tokens or anything like that, you shouldn't be able to get in, right?" ”
"I have my own way," Cheng Shuiyao smiled calmly and beckoned Moshu to prepare a carriage for herself.
This incident happened suddenly, and the palace was probably unprepared, in case he was caught off guard, the prime minister was really likely to succeed.
In order to prevent this from happening, it was better for her to enter the palace in advance to remind the emperor.
"Xiaoyun," Cheng Shuiyao turned her head and stared at her with a serious face, "After I leave, you will leave the city with my mother-in-law and two children, and go to the secret courtyard in the mountains to live temporarily, I will send someone to escort you, and after everything is in order in the capital, I will send someone to pick you up." ”
"How's that going to work? Madame, you're not safe alone, so let me stay and take care of you!" As soon as Xiao Yun heard this, he was instantly anxious and spoke eagerly.
"This matter is far from being as simple as you think on the surface, you don't know martial arts, it's not good to stay here, don't worry, I'll be fine," Cheng Shuiyao patted Xiaoyun's shoulder, smiled and shook his head.
If she really wants to make a move, I'm afraid that the prime minister will kidnap the Xiao family and threaten them as soon as possible, in order to avoid this happening, she should send people away as soon as possible.
Xiaoyun didn't speak, but his face was full of unwillingness.
"Don't worry," Cheng Shuiyao smiled, "I promised to go picking lotus roots with you in the summer, and I will definitely not miss the appointment." ”
Xiaoyun knew very well what she meant, her eyes instantly filled with tears, she bit her lower lip and nodded.
Cheng Shuiyao smiled again and asked Xiaoyun to tell Xie Yin and the others to pack their things.
After Xiaoyun left, Cheng Shuiyao took one last look at the swing in the back garden and left the mansion.
No one knew that in this dark night when they couldn't see their fingers, a carriage was rushing from Xiao's house to the palace gate at high speed.
When he arrived at the gate of the palace, Cheng Shuiyao dismounted and stretched out his hand to show a token.
"It's ...... The brand of the concubine? The guards guarding the palace gate looked at each other suspiciously, and their hearts were full of surprise.
"Your concubine Niangniang invited me to talk late this night," Cheng Shuiyao smiled and stuffed a bag of silver into the guard's hand, "She is not in good health, now, seeing that the limit is approaching, don't call me here, I'm afraid ......"
The two guards looked at each other, as if to consider whether her words were true or false.
Huang Qiyu does not have a strong sense of presence in the palace and rarely communicates with the outside world, but what Cheng Shuiyao said also makes some sense.
In the end, the two guards looked at each other and nodded with a smile, "Madame, be careful, don't disturb the rest of several big people." ”
Cheng Shuiyao knew that this matter had been settled, so she quietly slipped into the palace and went straight to Huang Qiyu's palace.
Huang Qiyu hadn't slept yet, and the palace was bright.
"Niangniang, Mrs. Xiao is here suddenly," the waiting palace maid came in and reported.
"Enter the palace at this time?" Huang Qiyu frowned, "Let her in!" ”
