When he arrived in the palace, as soon as the emperor heard that Shuo had entered the palace, he sent someone to call him away, saying that he wanted to discuss important matters.

Wu Ling said that she would not go, saying that she wanted to go to see the queen mother, and when he was done, she could come to her again.

Shuo nodded after hearing this, and then relieved to order the servant to take Wu Ling back to the emperor's Changle Palace.

After Shuo left, Wu Ling walked with the attendant for a distance, and saw the road on the right, which was the road to Roufu Palace, the sleeping palace of Concubine Lan, the mother of the stream.

"Go down, I'll know the way back." Wu Ling waved her hand and motioned for the attendant to leave.

"Yes." The little girl bowed very interestingly and withdrew.

Wu Ling looked around, and a column of attendants was lining up as if they were going somewhere. Two of the little maids laughed and seemed to be lazy.

They were all carrying some food boxes and utensils in their hands, obviously to give them to someone.

"What are you doing?" A sharp female voice came, and I saw a high-ranking maid dressed in dark blue coming towards her.

"Aunt Qing is fine." The little maids leaned down and saluted.

"You remember, although Concubine Lan is down, you can't wait slowly, otherwise you won't be able to eat and walk around!" The woman spoke fiercely, staring fiercely at the few little maids in front of her, and the little maids immediately nodded in a hurry.

After the woman finished speaking, she walked away, leaving only a few little maids trembling and walking into Concubine Lan's bedroom.

After listening to this woman's words, Wu Ling understood that these people were originally delivering food to Concubine Lan, so they quietly followed.

There were more than a dozen guards standing at the gate of Concubine Lan's palace, each wearing silver armor, and the little maids could only enter with the sign on their waists, which looked heavily guarded.

Wu Ling thought for a moment, then walked to the high wall on the right that no one could see, turned over, and hid behind a tree.

Johor Palace does not look particularly extravagant and gorgeous, but it is full of warmth.

The courtyard is full of flowers, beautiful flowers bloom everywhere, many butterflies of various colors fly around, the scene is beautiful, and there are all kinds of fruit trees mixed in, and the trees are even more fruitful.

The entire Johor Palace looks like a sea of flowers and trees, and it is as beautiful as a dream.

Wu Ling quietly followed behind the little maids, careful not to be noticed by them.

The little maids made their way north, and after many checks, they finally reached the front of a small courtyard that looked dilapidated.

Although this small courtyard is dilapidated, it is still heavily guarded, and Wu Ling secretly guesses that this should be the place where Concubine Lan is held.

Sure enough, there were four guards guarding the door of the hut in the courtyard, and the guards only allowed them to enter after carefully checking the waist cards of the little maids.

What kind of fault was it that even the mother who was involved in Xi was treated like this?

Because there are not many concubines in the palace, and Concubine Lan is considered to be a favorite concubine of the emperor, Wu Ling probably knows her.

Moreover, Concubine Lan is the daughter of the national teacher.

When Wu Ling was a child studying law, the queen mother once asked the national teacher to teach Wu Ling the art of astrology and divination, so among the many concubines, Concubine Lan was the one Wu Ling knew best.

Before Concubine Lan entered the palace, she was a first-class beauty, and the emperor had already given the position, which showed that she was considerate of the only one daughter in the national teacher's family, and she would enter the palace when she became an adult.

But before Concubine Lan entered the palace as an adult, she encountered the turmoil at that time, and the neighboring country raided at this moment and took her as the daughter of the national teacher as a hostage.

The Great War is on the verge of breaking out.

At that time, many ministers in the court were opposed to the emperor using thousands of troops to save a little woman, although her daughter of the national teacher, but after all, she was just a woman, the family and the country, and persuaded the emperor to think twice.

The national teacher calculated that she was in danger this time, so the emperor immediately decided to kill and rescue her beloved in a neighboring country.

This can also be regarded as a gamble, if the national teacher is not accurate, Concubine Lan may have died in another country back then.

So since this incident, the prestige of the national teacher has been higher.

Only Wu Ling knew that at that time, the national teacher looked at her fiery red hair color and sighed: "Baby, when you grow up, don't be like me, astrology, divination, the road of no return." ”

At that time, Wu Ling was still young and didn't understand what the national teacher meant, and the national teacher told a small story.

At that time, when the emperor was persuaded to save Concubine Lan, the hexagram was a big murderer, but if he didn't save it, how could his daughter be okay in a neighboring country? Even if you are fighting to the death, you have to go as a parent.

For so many years, Concubine Lan has relied on the big backer of the national teacher and the favor of God, her status can be described as stable, second only to the two mothers who gave birth to the silver-eyed emperor, so if there is no major fault, the emperor will not treat her like this.

There are also two ventilation windows on the right side of the house, however, they are very high, so they are unguarded.

Wu Ling silently hid behind the tree, until a few little maids went in and came out after delivering things, she climbed the cliff with both hands, borrowed her strength, and ran into the room.

At this moment, there was a woman sitting in the room, with willow eyebrows, as elegant and leisurely as the reincarnation of Na Xi Shi, and there was a little melancholy between her eyebrows, which made people look pity.

"Well, how did you get in?" Seeing Wu Ling rushing in, Concubine Lan didn't seem to be shocked, but just turned her head and asked softly.

"See the mother." Wu Ling bowed her head and saluted softly.

Because she is Xi's mother, Wu Ling is friendly with Xi. Therefore, Concubine Lan had heard of Wu Ling, so she did not panic.

She gently approached Wu Ling and motioned for her to go to the inner room a little farther away to talk.

There were a few guards guarding outside the door, obviously inconvenient to speak, Wu Ling nodded lightly, and followed Concubine Lan into the inner room.

"You're Princess Wuling, I've heard Xi talk about you." After gently covering the door, Concubine Lan slowly spoke.

"Yes, I heard that something happened to the creek yesterday, so I came to ask what was going on."

"You...... Ask what this thing does. Although she knew that Wu Ling and Xi were friends, Concubine Lan still had scruples, Wu Ling was the emperor's person after all, and she had to guard against it.

"Tell Niangniang the truth, Wu Ling and Xi have known each other for many years, this time I learned that Xi had an accident, Wu Ling was anxious, and Shuo was also worried about it, so I came here to disturb, and I hope that Niangniang will tell Wu Ling everything she knows." Wu Ling looked at Concubine Lan with sincerity in her eyes, which made people have to believe it.

"But...... The emperor ...... there, "Concubine Lan still hesitated.

After all, for so many years, she has suffered a lot under the iron-fisted autocracy of the emperor, and this time, the emperor advocated severe punishment, if it were not for the emperor's protection, I am afraid that she would have been reduced to a prisoner by now, and the queen's daughter, how can she be gullible.

"...... If this matter alarms the queen mother, I am afraid that Wu Ling will not be so easy to help. Wu Ling didn't know that the emperor was involved in this matter, but Concubine Lan was suspicious.

Concubine Lan frowned, thinking in her heart whether to believe her.

Although she is the righteous daughter of the emperor, and she has heard a lot of rumors, but this righteous daughter has only been by the emperor's side for more than four years, and she was lost to the emperor by the emperor before she was a minor.

Besides, the incident three years ago made Concubine Lan know that in the eyes of the emperor, Wu Ling was just a chess piece, at the mercy of the emperor.

Compared with the two, the relationship between Wu Ling and Xi may be much worse than the relationship between Wu Ling and the emperor.

Thinking about it like this, Concubine Lan suddenly felt that Wu Ling was credible, besides, she had been locked up for three days, and no one could get close to Roufu Palace, but Wu Ling came in, if she didn't ask her at this time, there would be no chance!

"Mother?" Wu Ling called softly, not knowing what Concubine Lan was thinking.

"Actually...... Creek...... In fact...... He...... It's a woman. Concubine Lan waited for a long time before she told the truth.

Wu Ling suddenly frowned, what is Concubine Lan kidding, Xi is a woman? Isn't he the emperor?

"It's a long story...... "Concubine Lan actually began to cry faintly.

Later, from Concubine Lan's intermittent narration, Wu Ling heard the whole story.

Three days ago, General Ma suddenly entered the pilgrimage to see him, and for some reason he expressed his willingness to continue to be loyal to our court, turn hostility into jade silk, and no longer have a rebellious heart.

For Yun Guo, although General Ma and the others are not to be afraid, it is always much better to be under the income than to become an enemy while adrift.

In the middle of summer, the lotus flowers on the shore of the lotus lake have all opened, the pink lotus flowers, enchanting blooming in the lake, the scene is beautiful, so General Ma proposed to set the banquet on the shore of the lotus lake, the emperor also loves the lotus, so he set the banquet on the shore of the lotus lake again.

When Wu Ling heard that a banquet was going to be held on the shore of Lotus Flower Lake again, a trace of bad vigilance suddenly appeared in her heart.

A while ago, an unpleasant thing happened on the shore of Lotus Lake, and now I want to go there again, and it was General Ma who took the initiative to ask for it, and it seems that it must be inseparable from him.

Sure enough, in Concubine Lan's subsequent narration, the stream was on the shore of Lotus Lake.

The water of the river and lake on the shore of the lake was quite deep, and during the banquet, I don't know who pushed him behind when he was enjoying the fish in the stream, and the stream immediately fell into the cold lake.

Concubine Lan immediately shouted for help after she reacted, at that time, Cang was on the side, immediately jumped under the water, and quickly fished him up, it was not a big deal, the stream was rescued by Cang as soon as she fell into the water, and she was not frightened, and she should have been fine.

But the summer clothes were already slender, and the stream that fell into the water was hugged by Cang, and the white clothes were all soaked and wrapped around his body, although Cang was hidden tightly, but he couldn't help but be seen, he looked like a woman as enchanting and charming.

One of them actually joked that the figure of the Sixth Highness was actually like a woman, graceful and graceful.

As soon as these words came out, everyone present was immediately shocked, as if they were a stick in the head and woke everyone up, looking closely, Xi was like a woman, with a delicate face, although she was wearing a men's robe, but her figure was enchanting and graceful, where is the appearance of an emperor?

It's clear, it's a real woman!
