Mu Qingchen didn't know whether Concubine An's reminder was kind or had ulterior motives, but he just took Concubine An's words to heart. In the past, she only felt that she could be cautious and not make mistakes, but now she realized that she had ignored the most important thing, and Concubine An could see it, and the Queen Mother and Xiao Ling might not be able to see it.

The meal was tasteless because of the strange atmosphere of the Queen Mother and Xiao Ling, and the harem concubines except for Gu Yanru's occasional words in front of Xiao Ling, even Shen Bihuan had to stay quietly, and her arrogance suddenly dropped.

The Queen Mother was probably in a bad mood, and after lunch, she deduced that she was tired, and sent everyone away, leaving only Shen Bihuan and Shen Bining sisters to chat and serve in the palace.

Qingchen returned to Lu Luoju, but saw that the night corpse, who had always been hidden, was waiting in her room, frowning slightly.

"Princess, something happened. As soon as Ye Di saw Mu Qingchen, he opened his mouth like this.

"Jinyan, go outside and keep guard, don't let anyone approach. As soon as Qingchen heard this, he commanded, and when he saw Jin Yan go out of the door, he asked again, "What happened?"

"The forbidden army has captured the heavenly machine, such as today the machine is brought into the palace, and the life and death are unknown. Ye Di said, "This matter should have been reported to the princess a long time ago, but when the subordinates arrived, the princess had already entered the palace." ”

"I already knew about this matter, Xiao Ling interrogated Tianjizi, and he even suspected that Ye Chengcheng was not dead. Mu Qingchen lowered his head, thinking back to the conversation between Xiao Ling and the Queen Mother in Ci'an Palace, his eyes were gloomy, "It's really ridiculous, isn't it?"

"Princess, although Tianjizi's predecessors are proficient in manufacturing secret weapons, they don't know martial arts, I don't know if they can withstand the torture instruments in the palace, if he tells the identity of the princess......" Zhan Yu said worriedly on the side.

"Tianjizi's predecessors have always been indifferent and kind, and they will never be beaten into tricks, but I am worried that he will anger Xiao Ling and invite death. Mu Qingchen said, "I once said that I would not let the person who picked up the Star Tower become my tool for revenge, nor would I let anyone die so easily." ”

"The princess means ......," Nightshade asked.

"Xiao Ling is very suspicious, he will never lock Tianjizi in the Criminal Department or Dali Temple, for Xiao Ling, the prison in the palace is a good place to hold prisoners. The streamer in Qingchen's eyes flashed away, and his expression was firm, "So, I'm going to go to the prison." ”

"Does the princess want to save the predecessors of the heavenly machine? But the heavenly prison is heavily guarded, and the emperor is prepared, so it is difficult to guarantee that it is not the emperor's plan to invite the king into the urn. Ji Yu said.

"Despite this, I still have to go, one day late, the more dangerous it will be for the predecessors of Tianjizi. Qingchen said, "Nightfall, send a message to the palace to see if you can find out where Tianjizi is locked up in the prison." ”

"Yes, my subordinates will go. Nightshade was ordered to leave, and jumped out of the back window.

After Nightshade left, Qingchen sat down in his chair and bowed his head in contemplation.

Xiao Yituo picked up the Star Tower to look for Ye Tingcheng's body, Feng Xiran entered the palace several times to explore, but he didn't find any clues, so where is Ye Tingcheng's body?

Since she returned to Ningyue, although she is the driving force behind some things, there are also many things that she can't guess, such as Xiao Yi's purpose and the poison on his body, as well as Concubine An, who has no friends or enemies.

"Is the princess back?" asked Jin Yan in Huai Jin's voice at the door.

"Yes, the princess commanded me to stand guard at the door, and no one was allowed to enter. Although Jin Yan didn't know why Mu Qingchen had contact with Huai Jin Zhanyu before, she knew that Huai Jin was Mu Qingchen's confidant, so she answered truthfully.

"Let them in. Qingchen commanded to the handshake beside him.

Zhan Yu nodded, opened the door, and called Jin Yan and Huai Jin in, while he looked towards the door and saw that there was no one else, so he was relieved.

"Princess Qiyu, the princess asked the slave to sleep when she was drunk before, and there is a clue. Huai Jin came in and said to Qingchen.

"What is sleeping while drunk?" Jin Yan asked with some confusion.

"Is it an inner ghost?" Qingchen did not answer Jin Yan's words, but asked Huai Jin.

"Yes, it's an inner ghost. Huai Jin nodded and spoke again, "On weekdays, Miss Jinyan is with her, Hold Yu serves her life, and the slave maid is responsible for the meal, and Aunt Qiu rarely enters the princess's bedroom because of the princess's deliberate alienation. ”

"What do you mean by that? Do you suspect what I've done?" Although Jin Yan didn't know what he was sleeping in when he was drunk, he also knew what Huai Jin meant by what he said, so he asked.

"You listen to Huai Jin's words, if you have such ability, God unknowingly gave me the poison that I slept when I was drunk under my nose, and it would not be so easy for me to find out, you have a relationship with the imperial sister-in-law. Qingchen snorted coldly and motioned for Huai Jin to continue.

"Princess Shengming, in addition to the slaves and maids, there is another person who is the closest to the princess's dormitory, she only needs to come in when the princess is not in the dormitory, and no one will suspect it. Huai Jin nodded.

"I know that it is the red silk that cleans the bed and makes the bed, and no one but her can come close to the Princess's bed. It dawned on him.

"Yes, I also found unused drunken sleep poison powder in her room. Huai Jin nodded and said.

"What do you mean, Red Silk poisoned the princess?" Jin Yan finally understood what was going on, and then he spoke, "This little girl usually looks quite well-behaved, and she doesn't even dare to speak loudly, but she didn't expect to do such a thing, so the slave went to her and asked her why she did this." ”

"Wait a minute, the princess hasn't said anything yet, what are you anxious about?"

"Yes, it's not appropriate to startle the snake now, and pull out the red silk, it's hard to guarantee that the other party won't send other people to mix in the Lu Luoju in other ways. Qingchen nodded, "Only the three of you know about this, find an opportunity, find a random mistake and send her to do rough work in the backyard, don't let her approach the dormitory." ”

"The slave understands. The three people in front of him nodded and said.

"Alright, you all go down, I want to rest for a while. Qingchen gave the order, got up and walked towards the bed.

Hold Yu knew that Qingchen was going to visit the palace prison at night tonight, and a trace of worry flashed in her heart, but she knew that Qingchen's temperament and the things she decided would not change, so she didn't say anything, just went out with her, closed the door by the way, and guarded the door.

When it was near evening, Night Dead reappeared and told Mu Qingchen the news he heard in the palace, and then he spoke:

"Princess, why don't you let your subordinates go down to save the seniors of the Heavenly Machine?"

"No need, although your light skills are good, your martial arts are not as good as mine, and you are not familiar with the Ningyue Palace, so it is more appropriate for me to go in person." Qingchen said, and let Nightshade leave.

After dinner, Mu Qingchen found out his night clothes and changed them, and let Huai Jin and the others look at Lu Luoju, and he took advantage of the night to go towards the Ning Yue Palace.

In the Star Picking Tower, Ye Di had just come back, and was stopped by Ning Chen:

"Does the landlord have any instructions, how should we rescue Tianjizi?"

"Back to the deputy landlord, the landlord didn't have any orders, she went to the palace in person. Nightshade arched his hand towards Ning Chen, and then spoke.

"What did you say?" Ning Chen was taken aback, then turned around and left, "Sure enough, it was guessed by the Wind Mansion Lord." ”

Ning Chen came to a stone room in the underground palace of the Star Picking Tower, pushed open the door and walked in, but saw Feng Xiran sitting inside, holding a picture scroll in his hand, frowning, his eyes worried, not knowing what he was thinking.

When I got closer, I saw that there was a woman in red on the picture scroll, dressed in red flying yarn, hanging behind her like a waterfall and green silk, only a few strands of hair seemed to be flying in the wind, her eyes were bright, her smile was arrogant, and the three-foot long sword in her hand added a little fierce murderous aura to the daughter's family.

His eyes moved upwards and fell on the face of the woman in the painting, and he was surprised to find that the woman was none other than Ye Tingcheng, who was peerless in elegance back then.

In the past, when the Star Picking Tower was first established, Ye Chengcheng came back from the Star Country, a night of wind and snow, and the horse's hooves outside the plug stepped on the return journey, with a three-foot long sword, everyone in the Star Picking Tower was impressed, just like the portrait, dressed in red, smiling proudly at this long red dust.

"Wind Lord, Night Dead came back and said that the landlord had entered the palace alone. Ning Chen's mind withdrew from the portrait and spoke.

"She's so stubborn, she'd rather be alone than come to me. Feng Xiran sighed, rolled up the portrait in his hand, put it away carefully, and said, "The matter of the Hidden Scripture Pavilion has already made Xiao Ling suspicious, and catching the heavenly machine may not lead the snake out of the hole, but that stupid girl knows that it is a plan, but she still has to take risks." ”

"Presumably, the landlord doesn't want to involve us. Ning Chen spoke.

"Let everyone in the building not act rashly, I will go to pick her up, and I will definitely let Tianjizi come back intact. Feng Xiran said, holding the sword leaning on the table, and got up to leave.

Ning Chen looked at the back of Feng Xiran leaving, with a slight depression, and shook his head silently.

The world only knows that Feng Xiran is a chivalrous man, wandering arbitrarily, and becoming famous as a young man, but who knows that his heart is actually troubled by the complexity of this world? What Ye Chengcheng captured in one fell swoop was not only the appreciation of the first emperor and the value of Xiao Ling, but also the admiration of Feng Xiran.

It's a pity that creation makes people.

Feng Xi ran out of the Star Picking Tower, and went straight to the palace, carried enough internal strength, exerted light skills, the night wind blew his fluttering white clothes, like the fairy who stepped on the moon, only the long sword in his hand, so that he was contaminated with some worldly atmosphere.

Different from Mu Qingchen's familiarity with the Ningyue Palace, Feng Xiran, as the first master of martial arts who became famous as a young man, wanted to enter and leave the palace, and naturally it was more like entering a no-man's land.

The heavenly prison is in the southeast of the Ningyue Palace, far away from the harem, but closer to Xiao Ling's Longchen Palace and Yangxin Palace, the moonlit night sky is bright, and the heavenly prison is also in the shadow of the night with a little firelight, through the moonlight, the wind can clearly see the forbidden army around the prison from time to time or walking by, as well as the hundreds of people standing at the door.

Suddenly, a black shadow flashed in front of Feng Xiran's eyes, and the petite and agile figure evaded the guards with lightning speed, flew down from the roof, and landed in the shadows of the trees.
