Qingchen was originally standing silently in the hall after Nie Xinyao and the others went out, looking around at the Yangju Palace, and unexpectedly heard the voice of the chamberlain, so he turned his head and chatted with them.

"Two days ago, I occasionally felt cold and felt unwell, and the doctor said that it was not suitable to blow the wind, so I could only miss the good spring in the imperial garden. It's also that I don't have this eye......"

Qingchen's voice was faint, and there was a hint of regret in his tone, as if he was really sad that he couldn't go to the Imperial Garden to take a look. And the two chamberlains did not suspect anything, but continued:

"Miss Mu doesn't have to worry, His Royal Highness the Sixth is being favored now, and there are many opportunities to enter the palace, and when the girl is in good health in the future, it is not too late to enter the palace with His Royal Highness and see the beautiful scenery of the Imperial Garden. ”

"That's right. Qingchen nodded and smiled lightly, "By the way, Your Majesty is not in the Yangju Palace, wouldn't it be inappropriate for us to stand here like this?"

"If it's someone else, it's naturally a little inappropriate, but the girl is naturally different. Your Majesty's life was saved by the girl, so why not stay here?" said one of the chamberlains, "What's more, the two of us are here, as long as the girl doesn't touch the things in this palace, there will be no problem." ”

Qingchen just smiled and didn't answer, standing silently, as if he had listened to the words of the waiter, and didn't move around or ask more, quiet as if it didn't exist.

Seeing this, the two chamberlains didn't say anything, thinking about their duties, they concentrated on guarding the palace, and for a while, the whole room was silent, only the bronze tripod next to the empress's desk was smoking, exuding a vague fragrance.

Qingchen just stood quietly like that, but he had a full view of the layout of the Residence Palace, and compared the layout diagram that he had written down in his mind, he quickly had a bottom in his heart.

The palace is the place where the empress reviews and folds every day, and there will be courtiers who come and go on weekdays to discuss the government, and the male concubines of the harem will occasionally come here to send some soup and water to the empress, hoping to get the empress's favor. Therefore, although the Yangju Hall is also a place under the eyes of the empress, the possibility of placing the clues of the Holy Land here is not very large.

In particular, the layout of the palace is clear at a glance, even if the empress is not there, there have always been people guarding here, and the two inner servants guarding the door may have been bought by other princesses, not to mention that the parchment scroll given by Xiao Yi did not show that the palace has secret rooms and secret passages, so Qingchen speculated that the thing was placed in the palace.

Thinking like this, Qingchen had the answer in his heart.

The empress and Nie Xinyao have been out for a while, and Night Death and Tomorrow have also been lurking in the dark for a while.

So, Qingchen walked to the door, and when the two guards were a little distracted, he shouted into the air: "What person-"

shouted, and stepped forward to chase two steps, looking at the empty direction, it seemed that someone really flashed from there.

"Miss Mu, what's going on?" The two attendants were startled, walked to Qingchen's side, and looked where her eyes were, but they didn't see anyone.

"I seem to see a dark shadow flashing by, but you didn't see it?" Qingchen asked with a little surprise.

"No, we don't have anything to ......," the chamberlain replied, and before he could finish speaking, he heard the sound of breaking wind in his ears, and the chamberlain couldn't help but turn his head, just in time to see a flash of black shadow.

The rest of the words suddenly choked in his throat and couldn't speak, and the chamberlain was stunned, and turned his head to look at his companion beside him, with questions in his eyes, not knowing whether he was dazzled or if it was really something.

"Xiao Li, don't look at me, someone really passed from here just now, I'm guarding here, you go and inform Commander Yun, and then go to the Imperial Garden to tell the emperor!" The other chamberlain seemed more assertive, and immediately spoke.

"I'll go right away, Xiaojing, you just stay here, don't leave a single step. Xiao Li said, then turned to leave, and glanced at Qingchen as he left, with doubts in his eyes.

That Xiao Li's work efficiency was obviously very high, and it didn't take long for Commander Yun to come with people, surround the Cultivation Palace, and then asked Qingchen and Xiao Jing the direction where the black shadow left, and then commanded the people to search in all directions with the Cultivation Palace as the center.

"I've been on an errand in the Raising House for so many years, and nothing like this has happened, and if I lose something in the Raising House today, Your Majesty will definitely blame me. Xiao Jing looked at the forbidden troops coming and going, and couldn't help but feel anxious.

"No, we were all at the gate of the Cultivation Hall just now, and we didn't notice anything wrong with the Cultivation Palace. Besides, I saw that the black shadow did not come out of the Cultivation Palace, but went directly to that side, if it wasn't for the Cultivation Palace to check the confidential information in Southern Xinjiang, then what would it be for?" Qingchen comforted Xiao Jing, and then pointed to a place, but it was the direction of the Empress's Bedroom.

Xiao Jing listened to Qingchen's words in his ears and remembered them in his heart, but he didn't say anything more, just looked at the direction where the empress had just left, hoping that the empress would come back from the imperial garden to preside over the overall situation soon.

After a while, the empress came back, followed by Nie Xinyao, and Xiao Li, who had just left, walked to the door of the Yangju Palace, looked at Xiao Jing, and asked:

"Say, what the hell is going on, I just left for a short while, and there were bandits in the palace!"

"Your Majesty, the slave and maid don't know what happened, it was Miss Mu who found out that something was wrong, and then the slave and maid and Xiao Li both found the figure of the man in black and went in the direction of His Majesty's bedroom...... Commander Yun came in time and had already brought people to chase after him" Xiao Jing heard the empress's question, and hurriedly knelt down and said.

The empress had already heard Xiao Li tell the matter just now, and when she heard Xiao Jing's words again, there was not much difference from what Xiao Li said, so she didn't blame it anymore, but just looked at Qingchen with doubts in her eyes.

"Miss Mu, why didn't you go with you to the Imperial Garden, but stayed in the Residence Palace?" the empress looked at Qingchen and asked.

"Your Majesty, the maiden occasionally felt cold a few days ago, and she was unwell, and the doctor said that she couldn't blow the wind, so she stayed here and didn't follow, and asked Your Majesty to forgive her sins. Qingchen said what he had just said to Xiaoli and Xiaojing.

With the same excuse, Qingchen said it very naturally, and there was nothing unusual, and the empress naturally wouldn't really find a doctor to check whether Qingchen was really infected with the wind and cold at such a time, because the empress's main target now was on the man in black.

"You've been here all along, and you've never left?" the Empress asked again, and just because she didn't check it didn't mean she didn't suspect it.

"Yes, the folk girl has been staying with the two girls until the folk girl felt as if someone had broken in, so she told the two girls that the little girl went to tell Your Majesty, and the folk girl and the little girl Jing have been here all the time and have never left. Qingchen nodded and replied, involving Xiaoli and Xiaojing word by word, just to tell the empress that she had someone to testify, and she had never left anywhere.

When the empress heard Qingchen's words, the doubts in her eyes gradually dissipated, but her heart still did not relax, and at this moment, Nie Xinyao suddenly spoke:

"Mother, let Yun lead them to check to see if anything has been lost in the Yangju Palace, the Yangju Palace is a place where important documents are placed, if it is stolen, the sons are afraid that the court situation will be turbulent......"

Nie Xinyao's words reminded the empress, and the empress seemed to come back to her senses, and immediately ordered the two attendants around her to enter the palace of the housekeeper, carefully check the entire hall, whether there was anything missing, and check all the documents and folds, and even the books on the surrounding bookshelves were carefully checked.

The large number of people is really efficient, but after a while, someone came to the empress and said: "Your Majesty, there is no trace of the palace being rummaged through, everything is there, and it has not been lost." ”

"It's good if you don't have it. Nie Xinyao seemed to be relieved when she heard the announcement, and said so.

"What direction did you just say, where did the man in black go?" the empress suddenly seemed to remember something, then turned her head to look at Xiao Jing, and asked sharply.

"Your Majesty, go in the direction of the dormitory. Xiao Jing was startled by the empress's sudden shout, and hurriedly said tremblingly.

The empress felt a chill in her heart, and without saying a word, she shook off Nie Xinyao's arm, left the attendants beside her, and headed in the direction of the palace.

"Keep up with and protect Your Majesty's safety—" Seeing this, Nie Xinyao hurriedly shouted.

When Commander Yun heard this, he was going to follow behind the empress with the forbidden army, and Nie Xinyao also took Qingchen and Wu Qin and followed the empress in the direction of the dormitory.

"Get away from me!, don't get too close!" said the Empress, who heard the commotion behind her, and then trotted toward the bedchamber.

Nie Xinyao and Qingchen glanced at each other, understood something from each other's gazes, and the pace under their feet did not speed up, but they followed the empress not far away, and watched the empress enter the palace, and then stopped.

"Commander Yun, the safety of the mother emperor will be handed over to Commander Yun, the man in black has not been found yet, the mother emperor will be in danger at any time, and please ask Commander Yun to bother more. Nie Xinyao stood at the door of the dormitory and said to Commander Yun, deliberately raising her voice so that the empress could vaguely hear it.

"Please rest assured, Your Highness Six, Weichen will definitely live up to Your Majesty's trust. Commander Yun arched his hand, then turned to the forbidden soldiers and ordered, "You, surround all this place, don't allow anyone to enter or leave, and carefully search for the whereabouts of the man in black." ”

Following Commander Yun's orders, everyone scattered in all directions, and Commander Yun and Nie Xinyao personally guarded the door, listening intently to the movements in the palace, and if the empress had any needs, they rushed in.

Qingchen stood far away, not standing with Nie Xinyao and Commander Yun, her eyes searched around, looking at all the places near the dormitory where people could hide, she knew that according to the original plan, she should hide in this vicinity tomorrow.

Commander Yun is Nie Xinyao's person, not to mention that it is easy to evade these forbidden troops with tomorrow's martial arts, even if someone accidentally discovers it, Commander Yun's people will not break it.

Qingchen only now dared to be sure that the clues about the Holy Land were really placed in her bedroom by the empress. In this bet, she can be regarded as winning the bet.
