The night was misty, Gu Shengchao changed into his night clothes, and while the moon had not yet risen, he quietly touched the outside of the palace. There are tall corner towers at the four corners of the palace, and there are also royal guards on the city wall who are constantly patrolling, and it is impossible to climb over the wall to enter with strict defense. Gu Shengchao came to the place that Fan Lixin told him, there were just low bushes to cover it, he leaned over to the moat, took off his coat and hid in the bushes, leaving only his close-fitting clothes and pants to go into the water quietly, take a deep breath and dive into the water, touching the embankment all the way forward.

According to the map shown, Gu Shengchao turned a corner and swam forward for a while, and his hands suddenly touched the air, which should be the passage that connects to the palace. Anyway, he couldn't see anything, he touched it with his hands, and sure enough, there was a guardrail in the middle, and he tentatively grabbed it with both hands and broke it to both sides, and the guardrail spread out like a soft dough. He was overjoyed, and continued to swim forward by touching the stone wall, and suddenly opened up through the narrow passage, looking up at the light shining through the water.

Gu Shengchao floated cautiously, and his exposed face happened to be hidden under a lotus leaf.

He heard the voice of a woman talking.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, run slowly and be careful." The sound of footsteps surrounded the pond one after the other, and it should be the palace maid chasing the prince, that is, the child of the princess who later became the queen.

The prince smiled and ran, and his innocent appearance made people forget that this was a deceitful court. Gu Shengchao also remembered the carefree time of his childhood, and the smiles of his parents had long been blurred in his mind, but that kind of warm scene was unforgettable.

Gu Shengchao inhaled slowly and returned to normal, his feet treading water under the water to allow himself to float without making a splash.

"Hong'er, run slowly, this kid is really disobedient." Another woman came.

"Queen Mother!" The palace maid stopped saluting, no one chased after her, and the prince in front also stopped panting and said proudly: "I can't catch up, I'm still fast." ”

"Yes, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is running really fast." The palace maid praised.

"Hong'er, you see that you are sweating all over, go back with your mother and wipe it well." The prince ran to the queen's side, jumped and followed away, and the palace maid followed.

Gu Shengchao sensed that there were no bystanders nearby, so he climbed up from the pool, hid under the rockery next to him, shook off the water stains on his body, and quietly slipped towards the Dahong Hall in front of him in the night with bare feet. The lights in the Dahong Hall are bright, there are guards at the door, Gu Shengchao listened to Fan Lixin's explanation, that is where the emperor went to the early dynasty, and there will be no one now, and the review of the chapter at night is in the Inquiry Pavilion. Because the emperor was set up by the eunuch Wen Zhe, it should be Wen Zhe reading the ministers' recitals.

Gu Shengchao observed the surroundings and determined the position, and the one on the left behind the Dahong Hall should be. He waited for a few eunuchs on patrol to pass, jumped in front of the courtesy like a tanuki, sensed that there was no one inside, pushed open the hidden door and quietly entered. There are lights on in the Inquiry Pavilion, although there is no magnificent momentum of the Dahong Palace, the tall carved beams and paintings of the cornices are also very exquisite, and the complex structure gives Gu Shengchao more stealth options. He quietly jumped on the beam of the room, found a dark place to hide, and waited for Wen Zhe to arrive.

After a stick of incense, there was a chaotic sound of footsteps, and many eunuchs walked in with a pot-bellied man, he sat on the soft collapse in the middle, and several eunuchs held the folds and placed them on the table in turn. Gu Shengchao saw it clearly, this obese man should be Wen Zhe without a doubt.

"Have the people from Baisha City arrived?" Wen Zhe flipped through a notebook and asked casually.

"Back to my father-in-law, I have arrived, and I should come to see my father-in-law tonight."

Wen Zhe said "um", "They will be brought here after they enter the palace, and I will receive them personally." ”

A eunuch was ordered to retreat.

Gu Shengchao couldn't believe it, you must know that there are five major sects today, the Dawu Dynasty has the Wuwang Palace, the Xileng State has the Yunqi Palace, the Hu people in the north have Baisha City, and the high mountains and mountains in the south have two sects. Wen Zhe first had Liao Weikang, the left envoy of the Martial King Palace, to help, and now Baisha City has come to help, and his hidden strength should not be underestimated.

Wen Zhe's review and folding speed was extremely fast, and from time to time, a eunuch shouted sharply: "The queen has arrived." ”

Wen Zhe hurriedly got up and led a group of eunuchs to meet him. The queen mother came with the support of the palace maid and sat down in Wen Zhe's position just now, and the prince also followed and sat down next to his mother to read the recital.

"Back to Niangniang, the world has been peaceful recently, and the twists and turns are mostly flattering, and there is nothing important, so you don't have to bother Niangniang." Wen Zhe said respectfully.

The queen mother read a piece of music and threw it on the table, and said with a solemn expression: "This Jiangdong County chapter says that there are bandits rampant, what is going on?" ”

Wen Zhe's face was as usual and said: "Hui Niangniang, it's just a gang of bandits running around, don't worry, Weichen has already issued an order to order the county government to exterminate them." ”

The queen mother nodded slightly: "What else do you have to say?" ”

Wen Zhe looked back, and the eunuch behind him immediately understood, walked over and hugged the prince and said, "His Royal Highness the Prince, Gonggong Wen and the queen mother want to discuss national affairs, let's go back and rest first, don't make trouble, okay?" ”

Although the prince was a little reluctant, he had to obey the eunuch's hostage, and soon, the eunuch and the palace maid walked clean and closed the door.

There were no more idle people in the Inquiry Pavilion, the queen mother got up immediately, and only stood aside to serve with her hands down, Wen Zhe sat down on the soft collapse in a grand manner, and the queen mother immediately poured hot tea and held it with both hands: "Lord Wen, please use tea!" ”

Gu Shengchao really saw it on it, and at first he thought that he was dazzled, and pinched himself hard before he believed that this was a true fact.

Wen Zhe took the teacup and drank it all with peace of mind, and pulled the queen into his arms and put his hands on it, but the queen mother said with a happy face: "What Lord Wen promised counts?" ”

"Of course." Wen Zhe said without hesitation: "When I kill this kid, the world is not your mother's." ”

The queen mother sat on Wen Zhe's lap and giggled: "When Hong'er, the child, ascends to the throne, the world's major affairs still depend on Lord Wen's decision, where will our orphans and widows know this." ”

Wen Zhe's big hand roamed over the queen mother's body, and asked: "The medicine I gave you remember to let the emperor take it on time, the saint's body is weak, the medicine is too strong, and the life is too ostentatious, take your time, you will be terminally ill in less than a hundred days, and even the gods can't save it." At that time, let Hong'er ascend the throne, and that kid made it difficult for him to fly. ”

The queen mother hugged Wen Zhe's neck and said softly: "I remember, every day I put it in soup and let the saint take it, and I started to cough in the past few days, like a cold wind." But the Nine Emperors have the support of the officials, and it is not so easy to overthrow. ”

Wen Zhe's right hand pinched the queen's face: "Don't worry, I have the support of the Martial King Palace and Baisha City, and Xiao Cheng is a grasshopper after the autumn, let us handle it." ”

The queen mother was touched to a private place by Wen Zhe, laughing insolently, and she was not afraid of being heard by the eunuchs outside, she was puzzled: "I just don't understand, how good it is to let that kid continue to be a proton in the Xilang country, if you have to exchange it with the proton of the Xilin country, wouldn't you be making trouble for yourself." ”

Wen Zhe shook his head: "You don't understand, letting the tiger return to the mountain is a scourge after all, and you can only catch it all by closing the door and beating the dog." ”

The queen mother said approvingly: "It's still Lord Wen who is clever, the Wuwang Palace is the leading and decent family in our Dawu Dynasty, and it is connected with the royal family, and being able to obey Lord Wen's orders shows that the adults are skilled." ”

Wen Zhe got carried away: "The Wuwang Palace is mercenary, as long as you give them benefits, of course you will obey your words, that kid is just a prince with no power and no power, and the Wuwang Palace will not do loss-making business, and it is natural for him to join forces with me." ”

Wen Zhe subconsciously let go of his hand as he spoke, and the queen mother picked up his hand and put it on herself again, "The fact that Xiao Cheng can return to the capital from Xilan Kingdom alive is enough to prove that he is scheming, and it is not easy to kill him." ”

"The Criminal Department is all walking corpses, a bunch of waste, if I let him die in the wilderness a long time ago, how could he come to the capital alive." Wen Zhe was angry, and the strength in her hand was a little stronger, and she couldn't help but scream "oops", and then snuggled in Wen Zhe's arms and let him bully.

Wen Zhe snorted coldly and said: "On the day of the Flower Appreciation Festival, I knew that Yu Cheng was going to do it secretly, but fortunately, the heavy rain from the sky helped me, but he didn't know that in a few days I would hold the Flower Appreciation Festival again in the name of the Holy Lord, so they were unprepared and caught off guard." We were boating together on the lake to admire the moon, when the water spirits I had secretly trained came from under the water with reed rods in their mouths, and then overturned their boats and killed them in the water. Those who are lucky enough to go ashore are not afraid, with the assistance of the Wuwang Palace and Baisha City, as well as the elite Royal Forest Army, they will definitely have no return. ”

The queen's delicate body trembled under Wen Zhe's hands, and her moans rose higher and higher, without caring about the eunuchs waiting outside. Suddenly, the eunuch outside knocked lightly on the door and said in a low voice: "Father-in-law, the envoy of Baisha City has arrived at the gate of the palace. ”

Wen Zhe stopped his movements and said in disappointment: "Okay." ”

The queen mother hurriedly stood up, tidied up her tiara, and ran out in disheveled clothes. The eunuchs were not surprised, and one of the eunuchs carried a lantern in front of them to lead the way and lead the queen back to the palace.

After a while, the sound of footsteps in the distance came, and the footsteps were neat and calm, as if a fierce beast was coming from afar, which made people feel cold. Wen Zhe couldn't help but stand up from the soft collapse and came to the door to greet him.

"Hello Lord Wen." A sonorous voice came.

"This is the hero known as the first warrior of Beihu and known as the nine-headed wolf!" Wen Zhe greeted him with a smile.

"Where, in the next fresh iron, the title of the first warrior depends on everyone's love." Xian Yutie came to the door and bowed his hand. His face was bronzed under the light, and his tall and sturdy figure had a big belly like Wen Zhe, which made Gu Shengchao very surprised. You must know that flashing and moving is very important for practice, and a big belly will hinder the flexibility of movements, and many moves cannot be performed.

A total of five people strode in, Wen Zhe gave up his seat, and he still sat back on the soft collapse. Xian Yutie and the others were not polite, and they sat down, everyone had a big belly, like a round shield in the lower abdomen.
