Chapter 6 Hongen Pavilion

Su Yuejin balled up the secret letter and threw it into the flickering candlelight.

"Bold! Do you know what the crime is for secretly transmitting letters from your foreigner?"

The waiter, who was secretly delighted, suddenly panicked and knelt on the ground when she shouted.

"My queen, please spare my life!"

Su Yuejin's face darkened, and she said coldly: "I didn't receive any letters today, and you have never been to Kunning Palace. Do you understand?"

The chamberlain nodded repeatedly and left in a hurry.

She exhaled slowly, and the fingertips embedded in her palms relaxed.

In her previous life, she was too reckless and ended up like this. Walking in this palace, she should walk on thin ice in order to protect her family and her own life.

Just as she was pondering, there was a sudden sound of something falling to the ground behind the screen.

"who!"

Su Yuejin did not dare to delay and rushed over. However, the only response she received was the cold wind passing by the rustling of the ancient bookshelf. A few books were scattered randomly on the ground, as if they were piled too full and fell out.

Su Yuejin frowned slightly and picked up the book on the ground. The pages of the book were slightly yellow, obviously they had been there for several years.

She flipped through it casually, and then she remembered that this book was a dowry forced upon her by her father when she first entered the palace.

Maybe it's a valuable ancient book.

Su Yuejin became interested in this and was about to put it down when she caught a glimpse of the small words printed on the spine.

Hong En Pavilion.

She pursed her lips in surprise and flipped through the book carefully, but she didn't see any clues.

If I remember correctly, this book should have been given to my father by Guo Tang, the Minister of Civil Affairs. My father did not understand these calligraphy and painting scrolls, so he gave them to her as a dowry.

Guo Tang, the Minister of Civil Affairs... seems to have been imprisoned in a prison for taking bribes.

Su Yuejin's eyes narrowed slightly, and she had some thoughts in her heart.

Although it is a place where criminals are imprisoned, compared with the Tianlao, the Cold Palace is like a fairyland. As soon as Su Yuejin stepped into the prison door, she smelled a fishy smell mixed with blood.

The guard guarding the door took the money into his arms and said respectfully: "My dear, please hurry up, otherwise I won't be able to bear it."

"knew."

Su Yuejin nodded calmly and walked into the prison holding the bamboo basket.

After passing through the cells where screams were heard, she stopped outside the innermost room.

The middle-aged man in the prison was dignified. Except for some dirt and blood on his body, he did not look like a criminal in prison. On the contrary, he had a bit more temperament than the officials in the court.

"Master Guo."

Su Yuejin called softly: "I'm here to see you."

Guo Tang glanced slightly sideways, his eyes gently falling on the visitor: "Are you...from the Su Yuan family?"

"Exactly."

Su Yuejin replied in a neither humble nor overbearing tone, opened the bamboo basket in her hand and took out an indigo wine bottle.

"I heard from my father that you like to drink this jade dew wine the most, so I sent someone to find some to relieve your boredom."

Guo Tang snorted coldly and turned around: "Guo cannot afford the Queen's wine."

Su Yuejin was not upset, she just filled up the wine and put it on the ground.

"I know Master Guo doesn't want to believe me, but the situation is urgent and I have to come here."

Smelling the aroma of the wine, Guo Tang's attitude relaxed a little: "Why, that old guy Su Yuan is also in trouble? Let a daughter who has entered the palace come to me?"

"It's not just my father, there are many things involved in this matter. Mr. Guo, let me tell you straight, are you the master of Hong'en Pavilion?"

Hearing the words "Hong'en Pavilion", Guo Tang's expression suddenly froze, but his tone remained calm.

"I have been an official for many years. When did I go to the study room? I am tired today, so I'd better go back."

Seeing his attitude, Su Yuejin became more and more determined: "Master Guo! Nowadays, Mongolian craftsmanship is everywhere in the court. If you don't care about it, not only our Su family, but the entire Liang Dynasty will be in danger!"

Guo Tang froze and slowly turned his head: "What did you say? There was Xin Zuo mixed in?"

Su Yuejin was a little surprised that he didn't know, but she still admitted honestly: "Yes, I have captured one and even replaced her identity."

She took off the jade medal and handed it to Guo Tang. Guo Tang carefully stroked the jade waist medal with a cold look in his eyes: "Humph, it seems that those bastards have been doing a lot during the time I have been locked up.

!”

He picked up the jade cup and drank the wine in one gulp.

"Does your Majesty have a sharp blade?"

Su Yuejin took out a dagger inlaid with gems from her boots and handed it over.

Guo Tang took the dagger and took off his shirt, revealing his body full of scars.

Under Su Yuejin's surprised gaze, he quickly opened his arm, and a jade button with flesh and blood fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

Guo Tang, however, acted as if nothing had happened. He simply stopped the bleeding with his belt and handed the jade button to Su Yuejin.

The jade button is in the shape of a tiger and is exquisitely carved. It is obviously not an ordinary object.

"Master Guo, this..."

"I didn't dare to hand this thing over to others casually, so I used a secret technique to seal it into a piece of fake skin that could be easily used and brought it into the prison."

Guo Tang looked solemn: "Do you know what this is?"

Su Yuejin shook her head. She had very little information about this mysterious organization in her previous life, and she had lived in Mongolia all year round, so she really didn't know what it was.

Guo Tang touched his messy beard: "This is something the late emperor gave me. Even the current Holy Emperor may not necessarily know everything about it. As long as you take it to Hong'en Pavilion, you can mobilize a

Secret Guard."

Su Yuejin was shocked. Although she did come here to trick Guo Tang, she didn't expect...this man would actually give such an important token to herself.

Guo Tang didn't seem to care that much. He smiled and swung the wine glass: "My Majesty has the same charm of Su Yuan in the past. I can feel relieved if I give this token to your Majesty or Su Yuan."

He poured the wine directly and raised it slightly: "Tell that old guy for me, I'm afraid I have to go down and wait for him first."

Su Yuejin clenched the token in her hand and promised word for word: "I will save you."

Guo Tang glanced at her lightly and did not respond. He just said casually: "It's late at night, so you have to be more careful when you go back."

After receiving such an important token, Su Yuejin did not dare to stay long. She left Jade Dew wine and a few dishes of side dishes to Guo Tang, and ordered the guards to treat him well before leaving in a hurry.

Not long after leaving the prison, she noticed something was wrong.

Su Yuejin glanced back with her peripheral vision, and sure enough she found a cold shadow on the treetop not far away.

Working at night, he didn't even know how to put away his weapon.

She thought to herself, "Idiot." She kept touching the sachet at her waist as if unintentionally.

After turning a corner, the man on the tree finally couldn't hold himself back and rushed straight towards him.

The sound of a sharp blade cutting through the air came from behind, and a hand reached straight for Su Yuejin's waist.
