Gonggong Sa carefully closed the door of the dormitory, beckoned the eunuch and palace maid who were waiting outside, and whispered: "You are careful to serve outside the door, if it is not for Your Majesty's words, do not disturb, and cook a bowl of white fungus soup in another hour......"

These palace maids and eunuchs have been uneasy recently, the emperor is seriously ill, the whole court is extremely worried, the atmosphere in the palace instantly becomes tense, as long as they approach the emperor's bedroom, it will be a lot of checks, returns, even if it is the palace maid who delivers food and water, the slightest carelessness will be on the ground.

This is probably the reason why this palace is high enough for the world to look up, but it is steep and difficult for ordinary people to climb.

After all, in the depths of power, there are crises everywhere.

Gonggong Sa slowly walked down the stairs and looked at the sky, he had been in the palace for so many years that he had almost forgotten the self before entering the palace.

The time of the day finally seemed to gather in the sunset in front of him, and he seemed to have seen a person's life, coming and going in a hurry.

His steps began to become a little hasty, but this time instead of going to the place he usually frequented, he came to a very secret side hall in the palace, which was overgrown with vegetation and seemed to have been left unattended for an unknown amount of time, and it was hard to imagine that there was such a place in the magnificent palace.

Gonggong Sa raised his head slightly, looked at the plaque above his head, which said "Youlan Palace", just imagine that there was once a "Hollow Valley Youlan", and now it has become a cold palace, and even the eunuchs and palace maids who often walk in the palace rarely come here.

He didn't hesitate, entered the Youlan Palace, and closed the door again.

Under a long and lush tree, a man in a gray robe was sitting there, his robe was not tied with a belt, but just let it spread out, looking wide and loose, his face was white and delicate, and at this moment his eyes were looking into the distance, if he didn't know that he was the leader of the famous Night Killer Organization in Lin'an City, who had commanded the twelve rakshasas and countless well-trained killers, then he would definitely think that he was an elegant and beautiful man.

However, since the Hundred Years Old Pavilion was broken at dusk that day, he disappeared, and the Hundred Years Old Pavilion seemed to have completely disappeared from the city of Lin'an.

In the dim and bloody small building, countless corpses were found, among which there were even two of the twelve rakshasas of the Hundred Year Pavilion Pavilion, but some people said that as long as he was alive, the Hundred Years Pavilion would not really perish.

As soon as Gonggong Sa saw the night embers, his usually humble and cautious gaze suddenly changed, becoming more sensitive and compassionate.

"Father-in-law, are you here......" The man slowly turned his head and got up to worship.

It is hard to imagine that the most mysterious "old Bodhisattva" in the Hundred-Year-Old Pavilion has always been hidden deep in this deep palace, and he is the most important eunuch around the emperor today.

Even among the most important twelve people in the Hundred Years Pavilion of the Hundred Years Old, only Yeshen has seen the true face of the old Bodhisattva, so unless necessary, Gonggong Sa never sees people with his true face, and today, when Yeshen appears in the deep palace, it must be an extremely urgent matter.

The worry between Gonggong's eyebrows turned into kindness, and he said with some emotion: "If time can be turned back, I really shouldn't have brought you into this Lin'an City!"

Night Ember didn't seem to expect the Sa Gong Guild to say this, but he had always been pampered and not surprised, just shook his head, and said: "Father-in-law, I was born with a family and country that has been destroyed, and I am a person who has no place to go......

"Hey......" Grandpa Sa sighed, and said no more, because he knew that for these people, there was no excess emotion

Useless.

"Has the messenger been brought out?" he asked.

Nightash nodded, but his gaze became a little dim, and said, "Pick it up, it's just ......"

There seemed to be a heart-rending scene in front of him, and that person was the shepherd who was once full of pride and anger.

"It's just not as smooth as I thought it ......"

Gonggong Sa frowned slightly, he couldn't think of what could happen to the "messenger" safe and sound, could it be that those guards in Dali Temple could still threaten the murderous herdsman?

"Mu Sha was abolished by someone, and life is better than death at this moment......"

"Who did it?" asked Gonggong Sa in a deep voice.

Ember gritted his teeth and said, "Mu Sha is now delirious, but from his words, you can tell that he is a man in a snowsuit, and he only used one trick...... If he hadn't disdained to kill Mu Sha at all, Mu Sha would never have come back alive......

Gonggong Sa pondered for a long time after hearing this, and finally hesitated, and even didn't want to believe it, but still said, "Do you think it will be a person from the Four Great Sects?"

Night Ember didn't answer, as a person who practiced martial arts, he naturally knew the four major sects that lived in seclusion outside the world, and it was said that those places were the holy places in the martial arts, and compared to them, the rivers and lakes in the world were not worth mentioning at all.

However, they hadn't set foot in the mundane world for many years, and why did they suddenly appear, could it be that the Hundred Years Pavilion that had been rampant in the dark night of Lin'an City for many years really angered them invisibly?

It's just that now that the Centenarian Pavilion has been broken, it doesn't make much sense to think about it again.

"If there are four major gates, everything will be unpredictable, but it doesn't matter to us anymore......" Sa Gonggong's voice became a little ethereal and vicissitudes.

"Night Ember, you take a few of them out of this city, never come back, haven't you always wanted to live that kind of life when the sky is high and the earth is far away, and the fish and birds are peaceful? The right to choose in the future is your own, and You Ji and Ming Tang are dead, and the others are not afraid of martial arts, Mu Sha cultivation is abolished, as a father-in-law, I have no way to take care of him, so I should hand it over to you, the 'big brother'!"

"Father-in-law......" Ember's voice also changed, because he could hear that "father-in-law" was explaining what was going on to him.

Gonggong Sa smiled, still full of kindness, and then said: "I have been hiding in this city for too many years, and even if I achieve my goal one day, I will never find my way home, even if it is a fallen leaf, I can still return to my roots...... And I have long been a fallen leaf in this palace, and I will have no roots to rely on when I leave this place......"

After he said this, he waved his hand at Nightash, because he didn't want to continue to dwell on such a thing, because he had already made up his mind in his heart that no matter whether he succeeded or failed in the end, he would never leave the city again.

"The people sent to Qin Hui's Mansion have news coming back, what is his move?" Grandpa Sa asked suddenly.

"The prime minister's mansion is preparing for the big wedding, but Qin Hui, as the head of the family, has locked himself in the study for some reason and stayed ......at home," Ye Ember said.

Grandpa Sa's eyes lit up, and he smiled slightly: "It is said that someone sent him a gift......

"Gift?" Night Ember was a little incredulous, but he also knew that with the vast power of the "Old Bodhisattva", both the palace and the prime minister's mansion had their eyeliner in this Lin'an City, and many things were not done through the Hundred Years Old Pavilion.

"The timing of this gift is very good, maybe someone wants to use this to deter Qin Hui and make him act carefully from now on, but in fact, people's hearts are unpredictable, and it may be unknown if it makes him, a person who is swaying from side to side, speed up his pace......

"At the beginning, the four princes were defeated

After that, he immediately sent a secret envoy to Lin'an, in addition to finding one of my troops, there is another group of people, and the two are acting independently, and Qin Hui and I are actually the two chess pieces that the prince sent in Lin'an!"

"But whether it's coercion or inducement, Qin Hui is really so easy to comply?" asked Night Ember.

Gonggong Sa smiled and said: "Qin Hui is a thoughtful person, and he has sent Dajin twice, but everyone knows that a person like him is by no means completely wooed by promising high-ranking officials, as for why he is willing to risk becoming the most despised sinner in the history books of the Great Song Dynasty, I really can't think of it......"

"And he has always had an ambiguous attitude, which must be caused by his hesitation!"

"So this time he can actually make a move?"

"This time he had no way back, because ......" He stood under the big tree in the Youlan Palace, but his eyes looked at the tallest and majestic palace in the entire palace.

"What does the righteous father mean, this is also what the emperor of the Song Dynasty meant?" asked Ye Ember again.

Gonggong Sa did not answer his words, but walked out with his hands in his hands, in front of the night embers, his figure was straight, like a green pine, where was the chief eunuch who groveled in front of people, cautious?

......

Soon, the court ushered in another major event, the current emperor was born in the first year of Daguan on the second day of May, and now it is the eleventh year of Shaoxing, which is just the thirty-fourth birthday.

Just in the past two days, the emperor who had been lying on the sickbed for a long time passed through the diagnosis and application of medicine by a traveling doctor outside the palace, and he quickly got better.

When the emperor walked out of the palace, the weather outside was excellent, the sun was shining on the world, and there were no clouds, and his mood was much better.

Hearing this good news, many ministers wanted to come to ask for peace, but he was pushed away, and now he just wanted to walk alone, with only the eunuch chief Guan Sa Gonggong behind him.

Grandpa Sa put his hands in the wide sleeve robe, bent over, and followed the emperor with very light steps but not far behind, after leaving the Youlan Palace, he turned back into the "old slave" beside the emperor.

The emperor was holding on to the white jade railing, looking at the palace in front of him, and was seeing two young men practicing martial arts with the martial artist at the foot of the Yunshui steps, one was white and pure and slightly fat, and the other was tall and thin but also very thin.

"Xuan'er has always been reluctant to practice martial arts, and it's embarrassing for him to think about it, but it's really unexpected that Xuan'er can still persevere despite being so weak!" the emperor sighed.

"Are they practicing Taizu Long Fist?" he asked after taking a closer look.

Gonggong Sa also stepped closer, looked down, and said: "All the young people of the Great Song Dynasty who practice martial arts are naturally based on the Taizu Long Fist, and they must not be bad!"

The emperor's expression changed slightly, thoughtful, but he only exhaled a breath and said no more.

"Your Majesty, it will be your birthday in two days, I don't know where to put the birthday banquet of the Son of Heaven?"

The emperor turned around, thought about it slightly, and said: "It's in the Chongde Palace, and in the Jiaming Palace, I want to enjoy the moon with Qin Xiang, Wang Lao and General Yue!"

"The old slave obeys!" replied Grandpa Sa.

"Wait......"

Sa Gonggong was about to retreat, but was stopped by the emperor.

He saw that the emperor seemed to have something to say, but he hesitated again and again, and then said, "Your Majesty, but there are other people who are hesitant in your heart?"

The emperor glanced at him, couldn't help laughing, shook his head and said: "Old General Han has been in the mansion for so long, with his temperament, he must have been bored for a long time, and I also miss him a little, so let him come along!"
