In the imperial city, several battle marks on the square in front of the palace have been repaired and restored overnight.

Outside the Taihua Palace, hundreds of courtiers dressed in various court clothes came out from the thousand-step corridor, and they were in groups of three or five along the way, discussing the disposal strategy of yesterday's case involving King Wu.

Behind the Taihua Palace, a hundred honor guards, surrounded by a Son of Heaven, walked to Changle Palace.

On the royal chariot, the Empress of Da Wei, dressed in a black and red dragon robe, put her left leg on her right leg, revealing red palace shoes and white ankles, elbows pillowing armrests to support the side face, sitting a little lazy, and a proud figure in the atmosphere, but revealing a different domineering spirit like a king in the world.

The twelve jade algae hanging down from the crown covered the empress's delicate and unparalleled face, and the eyes that were originally so deep in the court that they seemed to be able to understand people's hearts were now with three points of distraction.

The rebellion of the vassal king is very big, but with the strength of King Wu, he can't make waves at all, and with a reasonable reason, pinching death is just a flick of his fingers, which is not a big deal in the eyes of the empress.

Last night, she was rescued by a male hero, and she also saw the appearance of a beautiful woman bathing, which is a big thing for a woman, but the empress is not an ignorant little girl, and she is not shy and cowardly for this.

At this time, my mind wandered, thinking about how to break the game next.

There is more than one king of Wu in the Great Wei who has different intentions, there are Northern Liang outside, there are kings with ill intentions inside, and there are countless traitors of all sizes such as green bandits and Pingtianjiao, and this situation can be called surrounded by strong enemies.

But the empress never regarded these as difficulties, and from the day she sat in this position as her daughter, she knew that she had the ability to extinguish all the calamities in her sight, leaving only a prosperous era without soldiers for future generations.

But it takes time to do this, and to live is to accomplish everything that is in your heart; The only dilemma she faces is her own body.

If you want to live for a long time, you have to find a way to find the five missing pictures of the Ming Dragon and heal the physical defects caused by touching the taboo.

But she couldn't have run all over the world to find Minglong Tu by herself.

Although Shizun Xuanji is really powerful, he is also secretly helping her find it, but luck in finding Minglongtu is more important than strength.

First of all, you have to have quite bad luck and find clues; and then relied on superior detection and tracking ability to find out the whereabouts; and then grab it with peerless martial arts.

These three points, the link of strength, are the simplest conditions.

Night Terror Hall seems to meet these three conditions, but there is obviously no reason to go to the soup for her sister-in-law.

If you want to arrange this important task, you have to find a way to get closer to each other and establish a deep friendship with each other that transcends the difference between kings and ministers.

But as soon as I came out like this yesterday, and then I got closer, maybe I would be pulled to the dragon bed.

It's not a pure friendship, it's a strange relationship.

The dignified empress, relying on beauty tricks to capture the hearts of men, so as to let men help her with things, is not her style of acting.

As an emperor, he should use absolute personality charm to make his subordinates swear allegiance and submission.

Yesterday, he poked over Gonggong Cao with a shot, and his peerless demeanor has already made the night terrors show amazing admiration.

But he didn't hold it for a few breaths, so he broke the work on the spot, his image plummeted, and everything that was hairless was discovered.

A hairless phoenix is not as good as a chicken, and a hairless tiger certainly doesn't look majestic and domineering.

How does this make the Night Terror Hall surrender in awe......

The empress sat on the royal chariot, and she didn't know what she was thinking, and as soon as she returned to the Cheng'an Palace, she heard the voice of the palace maid Hongyu in the hall:

"Queen Mother, the saints are back, you can change your clothes first, it's almost noon......"

……

The empress came back to her senses, walked down the imperial chariot, let the palace people retreat, and entered the palace unhurriedly.

The hall was empty, the palace people had been kicked out by the queen mother, and in the bedroom near the lake, Hongyu stood in front of the dragon bed, persuading softly.

The Queen Mother folded her hands on her waist and sat upright on the edge of the dragon bed, her expression was very vivid - her cheeks were bulging, her big eyes were foggy, and she was obviously very angry!

The empress knew the reason, she didn't wake up naturally this morning, but the queen mother, who was awakened from a nightmare, kicked off the dragon bed.

Then the Queen Mother shrank in the corner of the bed and hugged her knees, looking humiliated, and did not dare to say what happened.

In terms of that reaction, the empress estimated that she had really done something last night, and the queen mother had to eat coptis dumbly, so she didn't dare to say it.

The empress was afraid that the Queen Mother would not be able to think about it, so she specially explained to the Queen Mother that she was called by the Night Terror Hall, and she had a secret errand to explain, so that the Queen Mother should not go to her heart.

Then the Queen Mother couldn't hold it back, and complained to her, accusing the Night Terror Hall of atrocities, and wanted to call the Night Terror Hall into the palace for interrogation.

The empress definitely didn't agree, she refused to shirk it, and the queen mother lost her temper, and sat here in the morning, without eating or changing clothes, and the palace was going on a hunger strike.

The empress entered the bedroom, spread her arms, asked Hongyu to untie the dragon robe and crown, and said softly:

"It's already noon, the Queen Mother go to eat, don't be hungry."

The Queen Mother got up and threw the red jade out and helped the empress undress, her eyes were very aggrieved:

"How can this palace have the heart to eat? The Night Terror Hall sneaked in, even if it was secretly summoned by the Holy Lord, after discovering the main palace, he should not cover the mouth of the main palace and knock him unconscious...... This palace is the queen mother, such a rebellious behavior, the saint doesn't even care, if he is a divorce, he will definitely help this palace to explain the law......"

The empress reassured: "I have already reprimanded him, he is afraid of alarming the palace people, and it is also helpless to stun the queen mother." ”

The Queen Mother didn't think so, hesitated for a while, and said in a low voice:

"Helpless, but what has he done, this palace has to ask clearly, right? When he knocked Hongu unconscious, the saint was not present, and there were only two people in the room, Hongu and him, and if he did anything to Hongu, no one would know at all...... I dare to go against the grain and knock out the palace, so kiss and touch ......it by the way."

The more the Queen Mother said, the more aggrieved she became.

The empress was asleep at the time, and she didn't know what the Night Terror Hall had done, but judging from the attitude of the Night Terror Hall towards her, she wouldn't do anything rebellious, and explained softly:

"As soon as he knocked out the Queen Mother, I came back, and I didn't have time to offend the Queen Mother."

The Queen Mother raised her hand and tapped twice at the position of the empress's collarbone:

"Isn't that an offense? Is this place accessible to men? And he covered his mouth in the palace, covering it so tightly......"

The empress tied the belt of the red dress and had no choice but to compromise: "It was my inconsiderate thought that frightened the queen mother." How is the Queen Mother going to punish him? ”

The Queen Mother's red lips opened and closed slightly, and she wanted to vent her breath, but when she thought of the night before yesterday, she took her to explore the tunnel and protect her with all her might, and it seemed that she couldn't do it......

"He is holy...... No, he is the one who left the people, and the Holy One called him in the middle of the night......"

The empress raised her hand slightly, her eyes solemn:

"This matter is related to the fortunes of the Great Wei Dynasty, and the Queen Mother must not spread it. If I am interested in the Night Terror Hall, I can openly call into the palace to accompany me, I can seal the person as the king side by side, and how can I let my sister ask for it without being sad. ”

The Empress Dowager thought about it, and with the character of the empress, if she wanted to sleep in the night terrors, there was really no need to sneak around, so she continued:

"He is the favored minister of the saint, and the palace punishes him, doesn't it make the saint in a dilemma, this matter...... It's okay if the palace doesn't care about him, but the saint has to let him know that it was the palace that didn't punish him, and it wasn't the saint who protected him, and told him not to take an example. ”

The empress bowed slightly: "I will inform him that he will not be allowed to set foot in Fushou Palace in the future, and avoid it in advance when he sees the Queen Mother, so as not to make the Queen Mother angry." ”

？

The Queen Mother felt that if the empress said this, she would not see night terrors for the rest of her life, although she didn't mean anything, but it was completely unnecessary.

"No need, this matter can be pretended not to have happened."

The Queen Mother's face softened a little, and she changed the topic:

"Anyway, when will Xuanji Zhenren come over? The saint has been busy with government affairs, and he can't wait to follow the night terror hall from morning to night, and yesterday he said that he would come to pick up the palace, and he forgot about it when he turned around, and he didn't say hello without ......saying hello."

"Xuanji Zhenren comes here every autumn every year, it's already June, it's almost there. When Xuanji Zhenren came over, I asked her to accompany the Queen Mother to go out for a good time, and it was okay to visit Wutong Street in the middle of the night. ”

The Queen Mother looks forward to the leisure time when her best friend comes over every year, and when she heard this, even yesterday's anger disappeared a little:

"The saint urged her, she has been in Yuxu Mountain for many years to cultivate immortals, and she has not seen her cultivate any tricks, and it is not the same to meditate when she comes to the capital."

"Got it."

……

————

It was noon, and the scorching sun of midsummer in June turned Yun'an City into an oven in an instant, and there were almost no pedestrians on the streets.

Night Terror Hall rode along the shade of the trees on the side of the street, holding his hands in front of the birds, still studying the wind palm.

Listening to the wind palm is to use the sense of touch, to perceive subtle fluctuations, not only useful for people.

In the past, when the bird was blindfolded, it would shake its head, but today I found that no matter how it shakes, it will follow with its dignified hands.

After being unable to shake it off again and again, it also aroused the fighting spirit of the birds!

The bird first did not move, and then suddenly probed, and even "chirp!" "Putting false information about enemy attacks, interfering with the attention of the Night Terrors, and thus sneaking up on them, can be regarded as extremely perceptive.

The night terror hall teased the birds, and came to the dyeing street first.

Dyeing Street was rebuilt very quickly, and now it can be regarded as a new look, but it is still being renovated and has not settled in the tenants.

Night Terror Hall came to the depths of Shuanggui Lane, and did not come back for a few days, and the yard did not change much.

Although she is about to move and wants to change to a larger house, Lady Locke hopes to keep the place where the two met for the first time and the place where the melon was opened, and this yard was still bought, and the objects inside were not touched at all, so that she and Lady Locke would come over to remember the past in the future.

Night Terror Hall opened the door of the main house, took the 'Hawker Buying Chicken Picture' hanging on the wall, thought of the pressure in his heart that had just provoked the painter of this painting yesterday, and after carefully rolling it up, he took a few daily objects and returned to Tianshui Bridge.

Sanniang helped him buy a house, it must be a little selfish, the new house is only half a small street away from the Pei family's mansion, the distance is very close, leaning on the Nanxun River, the east is the riverside viewing gallery, the front is the pedestrian street leading to the stone bridge, the surrounding willow trees are shady, the environment is extremely elegant.

Night Terror Hall led the horse to the gate, and it could be seen that there were many men from Tianshui Bridge inside, busy back and forth in the house, cleaning or placing furniture.

In order to meet the needs of Luo Woman, the house is the style of Jiangzhou, the east side is the garden, the buildings are mostly on the west side, the layout is compact, the back house is divided into four small courtyards, and there is a two-story embroidery building where the lady lives in the east.

The first time I came to the Night Terror Hall, I really didn't expect Sanniang to get such a big house in the capital where every inch of land is expensive, and I turned around inside before I found Sanniang in the big garden in the east.

In the middle of the garden is a small lake, on which a small stone bridge is erected, behind the stone bridge is a pavilion, and the original east wall, because of the river, has been built into a row of houses, and after entering is a viewing gallery and other buildings.

Sanniang was sitting on the small stone table in the pavilion, with the account book in front of her, and she was carefully checking, and Xiuhe was helping beside her, looking like a big lady who was in charge.

Night Terror Hall walked across the small bridge, came to the pavilion, and said with a smile: "Sanniang, I'm afraid this house is a bit big, and there are only three of them plus Luo Nuxia, and they have to be tired of lying down just to clean up." ”

Pei Xiangjun saw that the night terror hall was coming, remembered what happened last night, his face was still like fire, he turned around slightly, buried his head in a demure and dignified manner, and said in a calm tone:

"Who knows how many girls you will bring back in the future, if you don't buy a bigger one, what if you can't live in the future."

Xiuhe was enthusiastic, holding a small fan, got up and let the night terror hall sit down, helped fan the wind next to him, and said with a smile:

"The young master will live here in the future, so why do you need to clean it up yourself. There are a lot of maids in the family, and I think the young master is good, and he has no shelf, so he wants to come and serve, and now he is drawing lots, and he can only come if he wins the lot. I'll be a housekeeper for the young master in the future, the young master won't dislike it, right? ”

Night Terror Hall looked at the lovely Xiuhe of the water spirit, and was happy as if the new official had taken office, and it was a little funny:

"How could I be disgusted, but you ran away, what should Sanniang do?"

Xiuhe sat down in front of him and said proudly: "Can you work harder, I'm running at both ends now, waiting for Sanniang to move in......"

"Xiuhe!"

Pei Xiangjun raised his eyes and looked at Xiuhe, looking like he was about to clean up the portal.

Xiuhe blinked, knowing that he was speechless, put down the fan and got up and said, "What's that...... I'll go outside to take a look, and the young master will talk first. With that, he ran away.

Night Terror Hall picked up the fan, fanned Sanniang who was sitting on the stone bench, raised his eyes and looked, it can be seen that Sanniang is lit with a man-colored lip grease, her hair is combed meticulously, and the finch-tail hairpin he gave is inserted.

After a few glances at the garden, Night Terror Hall said: "The house is too big, and there are few people living in it, or Sanniang will live here." ”

Pei Xiangjun's eyelashes moved slightly, and he glanced at the Night Terror Hall, but he didn't understand the meaning of the Night Terror Hall, and his heart was a little complicated.

Last night, she fell into her arms naked, and sat down with her face, although she was embarrassed, she still figured it out, just as an accident.

But before she fell, she and Fox Meizi were talking about very private things, and they said everything that should be said and what should not be said, and Jingtang must have heard it......

This is no different from confessing your heart to the hall in person......

Surprise Tang asked her to stay......

After Pei Xiangjun glanced at the night terror hall a few times, he looked down at the account book and said unhurriedly:

"I'm a young lady of the Pei family, and it's not suitable to live outside...... But you're often not at home, and it's a big house that no one can take care of. I'll go and talk to my aunt, and if she makes that arrangement, I'll come over; Aunt Ling didn't agree, so she just asked Xiuhe to come over and help take care of it. ”

Night Terror Hall smiled and nodded along with the words:

"Sanniang has to tell my aunt well, I used to live in Liangzhou, and the yard was not as big as the stable, and there were no maids, and I didn't know how to take care of the house. Sanniang doesn't live here, let me be in charge, and the maids who came to help were afraid that they would have to go to the house to uncover the tiles, and they all drilled into my house at night. ”

Pei Xiangjun knew that this was the truth, Xiuhe's courage was much greater than her, so he let Xiuhe sleep next door to the Night Terror Hall, and within three days, he had to stage a scene of 'sleepwalking' and drilling the wrong bed.

"Got it. This house doesn't need to be cleaned up, you can start the stove by moving the daily things over, you go around, I'm busy. ”

Night Terror Hall chuckled, didn't bother Sanniang, got up and took the bird to look at the new nest in the future......
