The night was hazy, and the moonlight hung high like a silver platter. On August 16, the full moon, like a bright pearl, shrouded the courtyard with a clear light.

Such a beautiful night is like a picture scroll, if those who have a heart see it tonight, they will definitely be amazed.

However, Lu Zhaoyi and Qu Zhiyun sat quietly in the hall in the front yard, staring at the door with serious expressions.

They were waiting for Princess Liang's arrival.

The spies outside came in every other cup of tea to inform the location of the carriage of the Liang Wangfu at the moment.

Listening to the report, Qu Zhiyun only felt that something was wrong, and couldn't help complaining, "It's not far from the gate of the house to the gate of the house, and at this hour, I can walk to it."

"Tsk, people are princesses, don't be so rude." Lu Zhaoyi was stunned and scolded lightly.

Qu Zhiyun pouted, snorted, and said no more.

Finally, after another cup of tea, a magnificent and extravagant carriage approached and slowly stopped at the gate.

Hearing the rumor, Lu Zhaoyi got up, glanced at her, asked her to get up, and went out to greet her.

Saying this, Qu Zhiyun got up from the banquet unhappily and went out with her to greet her, muttering, "It's just a princess, and it's such a big show......

Lu Zhaoyi shook his head and sighed lightly.

When I came to the outside of the house, I happened to see Su Xiuniang get down from the carriage, and was about to go up to speak, when I saw her holding a single finger against her mouth and making a silent gesture.

This move really made Qu Zhiyun stunned, but Lu Zhaoyi's brain moved quickly, so he guessed that there was another person in the carriage.

Su Xiuniang turned around, looked at the carriage, and called respectfully, "Lu Niangzi's mansion has arrived, please deign to move!"

Immediately, there was a sound of clothes rubbing against each other in the carriage.

At this time, Lu Zhaoyi and Qu Zhiyun glanced at each other, and their expressions immediately became surprised, and their eyes stared closely at the curtain of the carriage. Z.br>

Sure enough, the curtain of the carriage was lifted, revealing a slender figure, the woman in red clothes and a golden hairpin on her head, who seemed to be not very old, and her hair was coiled, which also indicated that this woman had married and became a wife, and she was full of valuables.

And she carried a pair of gold bracelets on her wrists, which seemed to be quite a noblewoman's posture.

It seems that she saw the doubts in Qu Zhiyun's eyes, and Lu Zhaoyi squinted her eyes, she saw the appearance of the person who came, and couldn't help but show an extremely complicated expression, Su Xiuniang turned around again and faced them.

"This is ......"

She was just about to introduce her, but Lu Zhaoyi immediately stopped her, "You don't need to mention it, I know ...... Please come into the house, madam!"

This woman is dressed in gorgeous clothes, with a delicate face, long black hair, a shawl hanging down, and an elegant fragrance, which comes to the nose and makes people feel refreshed.

It's just that the chill in those eyes flickered faintly, which made people shudder.

Su Xiuniang noticed that the atmosphere was a little weird, walked up a few steps, and said with a smile; "It's not early, it's windy outside, let's talk inside......

The woman's face was calm, and accompanied by Su Xiuniang, she entered the mansion first.

Lu Zhaoyi saw that she had already entered, so she was about to follow, but was pulled back by Qu Zhiyun, full of nervousness, and asked; "Who is this man? Look at Princess Liang so respectfully!"

Seeing this, she raised her eyes slightly, her eyes were misty, and she seemed extremely complicated, "That's the mother of King Peng, Concubine Hong......

"Concubine Hong?" Qu Zhiyun was surprised, "Is that the lady who gave birth to the lady who was known as a prodigy and was posthumously called the King of Mourning by His Majesty?"

"Call the concubine ...... at the moment" Lu Zhaoyi corrected her, and hurriedly took her and followed.

Walking behind Concubine Hong, suddenly, an extremely gentle voice came from the front, "Lu Niangzi, the courtyard here is very chic......

Lu Zhaoyi hurriedly responded, "Concubine Xie praises!"

For a long time, I didn't hear Concubine Hong speak, and when she was about to look up, the soft voice remembered again, "I have heard the Queen Mother talk about you many times, and you are indeed a smart lady......

"The concubine praises, Qi Niang really doesn't dare to be!" Lu Zhaoyi hurriedly said modestly, "The concubine is the real smart and wise."

As soon as she finished speaking, Concubine Hong in front of her seemed to chuckle, walked into the hall, and sat on top of the place, with a beautiful posture and eyes staring at her closely.

"King Peng is still young, and it is too early to start his own mansion, and in the past two years, thanks to the care of King Liang and Princess Liang, my son will live well."

Hearing her suddenly talk about this, Lu Zhaoyi couldn't help but feel strange in her heart, but she didn't think much about it, and looked at what she said later.

Su Xiuniang has a dignified posture from beginning to end, and out of respect for her elders, she always responds with her body half down.

At this time, Concubine Hong's eyes fell on Lu Zhaoyi's face, and after looking carefully, her face was delicate and small, with a smile on the corners of her lips, her eyes were clear, and her appearance was peerless.

She couldn't see very clearly under the moonlight, but now in the house, under the background of the candlelight, she could see this face clearly.

"It turns out that the "Hebei pretty girl" looks like this, and it really deserves its reputation." Concubine Hong sighed, "There is no one here, I will make it clear the purpose of my visit to you this time......

"Please concubine, but it doesn't hurt to say!" Finally, listening to her go straight to the point, Lu Zhaoyi suddenly relaxed, and the atmosphere just now felt a little suffocating.

"Now that you have solved the danger of King Liang and the trouble of King Peng, can you please help?"

"What's wrong with King Peng?" She didn't understand, Peng Wang Xia Ji opened the mansion at the age of ten, and now, he is only eleven years old, such a child, could it be that there are people in Beijing who want to attack him?

Concubine Hong sighed, but she couldn't open her mouth, and looked at Su Xiuniang, as if she wanted her to relay it on her behalf.

Su Xiuniang saw that her gaze fell on her, so she bowed slightly and nodded.

She turned her head and said to Lu Zhaoyi, "Qi Niang, you may not know that King Peng is young and is not welcomed in the government and the opposition. For more than a year, my husband has been taking care of him on his behalf."

"But recently, King Han has often been in and out of King Peng's mansion, and I don't know what King Han said to him, and these days he often insults his eldest brother without saying a word. And these words, somehow, also reached His Majesty's ears, although His Majesty did not blame him for insulting himself, but in the long run, it is difficult to ensure that His Majesty has other thoughts. Therefore, my husband thinks of you, can you investigate this matter and find out what King Han said to him that made him so emotional!"

After hearing this, Lu Zhaoyi lowered his head and pondered, as if it had been a long time, before asking, "How long has it been since this happened?"

"On that occasion, you and I stayed in the palace the next day, and when we went back, we found out about it!"

"It's not a few days!" She said it casually, and then thought about it again.

This matter is indeed a bit embarrassing, in this case, if she rashly agrees, it will definitely cause some adverse effects on His Majesty, and she herself is not a member of the clan, this move, interfering by herself, will not make Xia Pei suspicious again?

When she was hesitating how to speak, Su Xiuniang said; "Although King Peng is the concubine of the first king, he is not the kind that is not unpopular in the clan. Many uncles in the clan loved him very much. It's just that if this matter continues to ferment, it may cause disgust among the uncles!"

At this point, whether it is Concubine Hong or Su Xiuniang, they are all attentive to her, hoping that she can agree.

And the more this happened, the more she felt that something was wrong, and a touch of confusion crossed her eyebrows.

I don't know how long it took, Lu Zhaoyi raised his head again, and said softly, "That's it! I'll send someone to inquire first, and then I'll think about how to deal with this matter. King Han and King Peng are both His Majesty's younger brothers, so how to deal with them needs to be made separately!"

Her answer made Concubine Hong nod her head in satisfaction, and she immediately let out a sigh, "In this way, I will bother you!"

"It's just a matter of raising your hands." Lu Zhaoyi smiled shallowly, but there was no bottom in his heart.

And Qu Zhiyun was afraid, although she didn't say a word, her eyes kept turning with self-love.

Even she knew that this matter was not so easy to handle, but she listened to her promise without permission, her face was pale, and she didn't dare to speak casually

At this point, Lu Zhaoyi also observed the change in her expression, and she didn't mention it again, so she continued to face Concubine Hong

"It's just that I'm curious, why did you suddenly leave the palace?" The Queen Mother and Your Majesty, you should know that you are out of the palace, right?"

When she heard her say this, Concubine Hong also seemed to be a little apprehensive, if this concubine did not only come for King Peng's business, then I am afraid that the intention of coming this time is not simple.

Sure enough, when Concubine Hong heard her ask like this, her face suddenly became gloomy.

She sighed, "You're right. However, I also told the Queen Mother that I wanted to see my son, so I allowed it."

The Queen Mother and Concubine Hong have three sons, but unlike the Queen Mother's three sons, Concubine Hong's first son, who is known as a prodigy, is not in good health and died early, so after the second son, let him go out and walk around more, hoping that they can live a long and healthy life.

If King Mourning did not die early, but lived to this day, with Duke Wu's love for this son, perhaps the position of the son of Yuan in the future, and the throne later, would be that King Mourning.

If this is the case, maybe today's emperor will not be Xia Pei to sit.

Of course, the world only dares to think about this kind of thing in their hearts, but they dare not say it.

And today, Xia Pei has won the heart of the people of the world, and the position of emperor is becoming more and more stable, and he probably doesn't care too much about the nonsense of the world.

Right now, Lu Zhaoyi raised her eyes and met Concubine Hong's gaze, she was indeed extremely curious about her leaving the palace this time.

"Concubine, please forgive Qi Niang's quick mouth. Qi Niang doesn't think that the Queen Mother will easily allow the concubine to leave the palace, and the other concubines who live in the Yongshou Palace, even if they have children, will not necessarily be allowed to go out."

When she said this, she paused, and continued to ask, "Qi Niang wants to hear the truth from the concubine."

Now, she has something to ask for, and she is the wife of the former king, so she doesn't have any power in her hands, in this case, on the one hand, as a courtier, she will not be as polite to her as Su Xiuniang.

And Concubine Hong also knew this, and when she heard her say this, her face immediately became nervous and stunned.

At this moment, the atmosphere was indeed a little dignified, Su Xiuniang and Qu Zhiyun were both closing their mouths and taking a deep breath, not daring to say more.

It wasn't until a long time ago that Concubine Hong smiled lightly and eased the atmosphere, "Such a woman, a bit of a powerful minister."
