Chapter 318: Secrets in the Palace
Looking at Ti Mulan's firm eyes, Chu Tianqi was calm, and said disapprerovantly: "This king said that this king will not interfere in this matter, you can do it yourself." ”
Hearing this, Temulan smiled.
"As long as you don't intervene to stop it, I'm going to find out tonight. ”
Zhang Mingqiu was dumbfounded, how could he check and check, and he went to Yongde Palace? It was the inner courtyard of the palace, how could this be? Even His Majesty the Emperor ......
"Princess Zhan, you have to think twice! Empress Dowager Zheng is His Majesty's biological mother, if you really find out something?"
"You don't have to meddle in this matter for the time being, I'll handle it myself. ”
Looking at the wave of Ti Mulan's big hand, that free and easy appearance, Zhang Mingqiu was dumbfounded again. He secretly glanced back at the war king's face, and felt that he really couldn't interfere. Even if the princess of war broke into a catastrophe, the king of war gave her a bag. But he can't, if the emperor knows that he is investigating the Empress Dowager Zheng, not only will he not be able to protect his black hat, but his head may not be guaranteed.
That night, Tie Mulan changed into a night coat and found Chi Rong, who was about to go out but was unexpectedly blocked at the door by Mei Sanniang.
"Aunt Mei, I'll go out to do something, you take care of the house!"
"Princess, take me with you! I know a secret passage into the palace, and I am also familiar with the Yongde Palace. ”
Temulan looked at Mei Sanniang in surprise.
"You know I'm going to the palace, you ......"
"During the day, I overheard your plans. ”
"But......" Although Mei Sanniang's kung fu is good, bringing one more person will only be a trouble for Temulan.
"Princess, I not only know the secret passage to enter the palace, but also know that there is a dungeon hidden in the Yongde Palace, where or where is the place you are looking for. ”
"How do you know so much about the palace?"
Mei Sanniang's expression froze and sighed. "This is a long story, I can't explain much at this time, but please believe the princess, I will never harm you. ”
Temulan believed her in this.
"But you must be careful, everything is under my command when you get to the palace, and you must not act without permission. ”
Mei Sanniang nodded, took off her cloak, and had already changed into a night dress inside, it seemed that even if Timulan didn't agree just now, she would act without permission.
As soon as the three of them left the Battle King's Mansion, the oil lamp in Chu Tianqi's study flickered and went out.
Mei Sanniang really didn't tell a lie, in a hidden abandoned courtyard, there was a secret passage leading directly to the palace.
This secret passage had apparently not been walked in years, and it was full of dust.
The three of them covered their mouths and noses, and walked for two pillars of incense before they touched the exit on the other side.
Mei Sanniang, who was leading the way at the front, held the oil lamp in her hand, turned around and reminded softly: "Go out is the stone mountain of the imperial garden, go southeast is Yongde Palace, and pass through the Feifeng Palace where the concubine lives now, everyone should be careful." ”
Tie Mulan nodded, staggered Mei Sanniang's body forward, and pushed open the stone door after Mei Sanniang pressed the mechanism.
At this time, it was already midday, and the palace lamps in the distance were hung high, but it was indeed pitch black in the imperial garden.
Led by Mei Sanniang again, she was really familiar with this palace. Every time, they were able to accurately evade the guards of the palace, and the three of them soon arrived at Yongde Palace.
"Wait for me here. ”
Temulan gave a message to the two of them, and disappeared in place, and Mei Sanniang and Chi Rong, who were watching, rubbed their eyes.
And Tie Mulan, who had attached an invisibility talisman, was already lying on the roof of the main hall of Yongde Palace at this time.
"Are you comfortable?"
Hearing an old man's voice, Timulan was startled. The old emperor has long since died, is this the Empress Dowager Zheng......
"You press very comfortably, it's been really hard for you all these years, if you don't have you, the mourning family doesn't know how to live until now. ”
Sure enough, this Empress Dowager Zheng has already put on a big green hat for the dead old emperor, but I don't know, does the current emperor know?
Temulan gossiped, gently uncovered a glazed tile, and looked inside.
"It is the honor of the old slave to be able to serve by the queen mother's side. ”
Empress Dowager Zheng suddenly stood up, turned around and looked at the man standing behind her, her eyes red.
"The mourning family told you a long time ago not to call yourself an old slave, why don't you listen. ”
The man was wearing the palace clothes of a great eunuch, but his clothes were embroidered with gold and silver threads, and jade and agate were inlaid with him, and his identity was not ordinary.
"I'm used to it, I'm afraid that I will make a mistake in front of outsiders and ruin your reputation. ”
Empress Dowager Zheng turned around silently, dissatisfied with her sadness, and lay down on the rocking chair again, letting the man behind her beat her shoulder.
"When Ming'er's life is saved, you have to take more time to teach him in the future, but you can't let him mess around like before. He is our only flesh and blood, hard-won, even with our life's work to make him live happily in this life, not like us. ”
Empress Dowager Zheng sighed, got up and pulled the man to the chair, leaned on the man's body, and asked with a little helplessness and remorse.
"If it weren't for the mourning family being sent to the palace back then, you would have been a eunuch in the palace for the mourning family, and your lifelong affection for the mourning family would not be forgotten even if the mourning family died. When the mourning family really comes to the day of death, you must bury me by your side, and I don't want to enter the imperial mausoleum. ”
The man also seemed to be moved, and hugged the woman leaning on his arms tightly.
"Don't worry, the blood of eighty-one virgins will surely give my son a new life. ”
And Ti Mulan, who was lying on the roof, left quietly with surprise in her heart.
Unexpectedly, she overheard a touching history of love between men and women here, a man is willing to enter the palace as a eunuch for a woman, and the love for women in her heart is really moving.
But no matter how helpless they are, it's just not right to hurt someone else's life!
Seeing that Temulan came back safely, Chi Rong and Mei Sanniang breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's confirmed, but we need to make sure that the kids aren't here. ”
"I'll lead the way. Mei Sanniang was about to move, but was stopped by Temulan.
"There are a lot of guards inside, you find a safe place to wait for us. ”
Tie Mulan glanced at Chi Rong, and the two flew up and went according to the entrance to the dungeon that Mei Sanniang had said before.
Sure enough, the closer you get to the entrance of the dungeon, the more heavily guarded it becomes, and this entrance is in the back garden of Yongde Palace.
Seeing the old eunuch who had just flirted with Empress Dowager Zheng in the house, he walked out, and after looking around a few times, he cautiously walked into the entrance of a rockery, and Timulan asked curiously with a voice that could only be heard by two people: "Do you know who this person is?"
"The chief of the inner house, Zhao Kun, the true master of Qingtianmen. ”
When Tie Mulan heard this, she knew in her heart, she couldn't complain that this old eunuch was so awesome, it turned out that there were people in the palace, and she was also the most powerful queen mother.
So what the Empress Dowager Zheng said just now, is it Zhao Guangming?
