The snow dragon in the southern border is sleeping, and the dragon garden is extremely quiet. The bamboo forest emits a faint bamboo fragrance, mixed with the intoxicating body fragrance of the red elixir, refreshing the heart.

After thinking for a moment, Qi Ning asked in a low voice: "Aunt, with your martial arts, even if you don't have this secret passage, will it be easy to enter the palace?"

Chi Danmei smiled charmingly and said softly: "Don't praise me so much. If the island owner comes, don't talk about the palace. Even if it is a place with stricter vigilance than this, the island owner will come whenever he wants, and leave whenever he wants, as if he has entered a state of no one."

"The Lord of Baiyun Island naturally needs no need to say." Qi Ning said: " Otherwise, how can he be called a grand master?"

Chi Danmei said, "Although I can't be like entering a world of no one, it's not too difficult to enter and exit this palace." She smiled softly and said, "When Senior Brother Bai and I arrived at Da Guangming Temple, we thought of sneaking into the temple, but Senior Brother Bai stopped me from doing that." When she mentioned Bai Yuhe, a hint of gloom suddenly appeared between her eyebrows.

Bai Yuhe was expelled from the sect by the owner of Baiyun Island Mo Lancang, and Qi Ning was also present. He knew the charm of Chi Dan and the friendship between his classmates, so he was also worried about Bai Yuhe.

Qi Ning nodded slightly and said, "I think it's not difficult for my aunt to enter the palace. Aunt, you said that one of the two black robes is excellent in martial arts. In your judgment, is it higher or lower than you?"

"That's not sure." Chi Danmei said, "I have never fought with him. I only saw his body skills a few times, and I knew it was not an ordinary person at first glance." After thinking about it, he said, "If he said he was better than me, that's not the case, but his martial arts should not be inferior to me, and I should be the same as him."

"According to this, if that person wants to sneak into the palace and not use this secret passage, he can come in." Qi Ning said: "But they sneak into the palace from the secret passage. Does that mean that the other person's martial arts are actually very ordinary, and they may not even know martial arts?"

Chi Danmei nodded and said, "Yes, I have seen another person's body movements. If it weren't for intentional concealment, it would be very easy."

Qi Ning held his chin, thought for a while, and said, "Since they sneaked into the palace together, they are naturally accomplices, and they know each other's background, so there is no need to hide it. If both of them have the ability to sneak into the palace, they would not enter the palace from this underground secret passage." After a pause, they continued, "If they were to enter the palace to assassinate, they naturally had to choose people with great martial arts. However, one of them was mediocre, that means that the two of them sneaked into the palace, not to assassinate them."

Chi Danmei nodded and said, "I saw them for the first time half a month ago. Every three days since then, they sneaked into the palace from this underground secret passage. Tonight is their fourth time entering the palace. If it is really for the purpose of assassination, it is impossible to enter and exit so frequently."

"What my aunt said is that there are many palaces in the palace. If you want to enter the palace to assassinate, you must have known in advance where the target of the assassination is located and have a good understanding of the terrain in the palace." Qi Ning thoughtfully said softly: "If you enter the palace several times to find out the terrain in the palace, it would be unreasonable. If you let them stay in the palace for a few months, you may not be able to fully understand the terrain."

Chi Danmei also frowned slightly and said, "Then what do you think they entered the palace for?"

Qi Ning sighed, "I don't know either." Thinking of something, he stared at Chi Danmei's charming eyes and whispered, "Will they be the same as you?"

"Same as me?" Chi Danmei frowned: "What is the same as me?"

"It's to steal things from the emperor." As soon as Qi Ning said, he shook his head: "No, right, they all know the underground secret passage leading to the palace, so how can they not know the terrain in the palace?" He suddenly thought of something, stared at Chi Danmei, and whispered: "Aunt, do you think we were thinking the wrong direction?"

"Thinking about the wrong direction?" Chi Danmei didn't understand yet: "What does it mean?"

Qi Ning said: "We all thought that the two of them were sneaking into the palace from outside, but is it possible that they were originally people in the palace. They did not sneak into the palace, but returned to the palace?"

Chi Danmei was stunned, thought for a moment, and said, "Are you saying that they are people in the palace? They always enter the palace at Chou at night, and they will definitely leave the palace before Mao hour!"

"Maybe they were ordered to leave the palace to do business." Qi Ning said: "Every time I come back in the middle of the night, I just report the matter or accept new tasks." Qi Ning said.

Chi Danmei: "After ordering to do things? Whose orders are your little emperor? He is the emperor. If he really wants to issue an order, why should he be so sneaky?" Her beautiful eyes turned and she said softly: "Didn't your little emperor trust you very much? He gave you such an important task to go east to do it, but now he is getting more and more distant from you? If he issued an order to make someone secretly do it, why don't you even know the news?"

Qi Ning looked solemn.

Shortly after the young emperor ascended the throne, although he was an orthodox inherited the throne, he was young after all. Both his qualifications and prestige were actually not enough to shock the ministers. On the contrary, Sima Lan, an old minister of several dynasties, was the best in the dynasty. Moreover, he had always assisted in the government affairs, and now most of the affairs of the court are controlled by Sima Lan.

After the King of Huainan committed suicide, the Sima family's power grew further. Although everyone in the court knew that the Jinyi Qi family was considered the descendant of the Huainan King, it was actually far from the Jinyi Qi family's power to balance the Sima family's power.

Of course the little emperor knew this.

Longtai knew that Qi Ning was the fake prince of Li Dai Taozun, but he still asked Qi Ning to inherit the title. One of his purposes was to use Qi Ning to control Jinyi's family, so that Jinyi's family would become the emperor. In fact, when Longtai wanted to meet Qi Ning for the first time as an emperor, the two sides had tacitly reached an alliance contract. Since then, the little emperor has indeed been using the power in his hands to strengthen Jinyi's family's power.

What puzzled Qi Ning was that after the wedding, Longtai suddenly changed his temperament. As Chi Danmei said, the little emperor seemed to be alienating him. Qi Ning didn't believe that this was just because the emperor was addicted to beauty, but Qi Ning himself couldn't understand why.

A gust of wind blew, and the bamboo forest rustled. Then Qi Ning said, "Aunt, do you know where they are going?"

Chi Danmei said, "I followed a short distance last time, but I didn't want them to find out, so I kept my distance. The palace was like a maze. If I accidentally lost someone, I didn't know where they were going, but before the hour of Mao, they would definitely return here."

Qi Ning smiled bitterly and said, "What do you mean is that we are waiting here now?"

"Otherwise, what?" Chi Dan gave him a blank look: "I told you such a big secret, look at you're not happy?"

"No." Qi Ning shook his head and said, "It's just that I don't know how to start with this matter. If those two people are indeed the emperor, I naturally cannot speak out to the outside world, and even in front of the emperor. Since the little emperor issued an order secretly and had never told me, he naturally did not want anyone including me to know. But if they are not the emperor, what do they want to sneak into the palace?"

Chi Danmei chuckled and said, "That has nothing to do with me, anyway!" Before she finished speaking, she suddenly stopped talking, reached out to hold one of Qi Ning's hand, and whispered: "Squat down!"

Qi Ning followed her and squatted down quickly. At this time, he heard a slight sound. Chi Danmei leaned close to his ear and whispered: "Someone is coming!"

In fact, Qi Ning had already heard something wrong from outside, and nodded slightly, thinking to himself whether the two of them had come back so soon?

The two of them hid in the bamboo forest and looked out through the gaps in the bamboo forest. The moonlight was faint, but they saw that under the moonlight, a figure had already run to the edge of the bamboo forest, holding something in their arms, looking extremely panicked. Looking around, they looked like they were looking for a way. Qi Ning saw that the man was wearing night clothes and was covered with masks. The things in his arms were wrapped in brocade, and they were not small in size, so he could not tell what it was.

Suddenly, I saw the man flashing and had already entered the bamboo forest. Although the bamboo forest was not big, it was very dense. After the man came in, he immediately squatted down in the bamboo forest. At this time, he was only four or five steps away from Qi Ning. I don’t know if he was too panic, but the man did not notice Qi Ning and Chi Danmei behind him. Chi Danmei and Qi Ning looked at each other, and they also held their breath and watched the changes.

At this time, another figure floated over. His body style was obviously much smarter than the man in black. He was naked and not dressed in the palace, but he was not wearing a night clothes. He was wearing a gray long gown and a strap around his waist, but his face was covered with a cloth scarf, and under the moonlight, his eyes were only exposed.

The man stood outside the bamboo forest and looked around. The man in black squatted in the bamboo forest, motionless.

At this time, Qi Ning and Chi Danmei understood that the man in black came here in panic, obviously to avoid the man in gray.

The man in gray looked around and then turned around and left. His body movement was extremely light. When Qi Ning looked at the man in gray, he knew that his martial arts were really good, and his lightness seemed to be two more points better than himself.

After the man in gray left, the man in black remained motionless. After waiting for a short while, he seemed to be sure that the man in gray had left. The man in black slowly stood up and still did not turn around. He walked out of the bamboo forest with his hands and feet. Qi Ning stared at the back of the man in black. When she saw her walking, her waist was slightly swinging, and the back felt a sense of familiarity. He was surprised. At this time, he could already see that the man in black was a woman, but he had seen the familiarity of his back, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

The man in black just walked out of the bamboo forest, but suddenly stopped and sighed: "Your Majesty's move to get is indeed awesome!" It was the woman's voice.

When Qi Ning heard the sound, her body was shocked and her face showed a look of surprise. Chi Danmei saw it in her eyes. I wonder why Qi Ning had such a reaction. Seeing Qi Ning's eyes wide open, her pair of dark eyes as black as stars staring at the back of the man in black.
