Gao Yan pondered for a while and asked: "When that girl was poisoned, were any of you around?"
"No." Several people shook their heads together. "I heard that it was very painful. The Emperor of Xiling looked very anxious and furious. He sent his servants back to report that -" Eunuch Wu did not dare to say that Xiling wanted to raze Dongling to the ground.
At this point, I bowed my head and stopped.
"Needless to say, their people have all arrived in the capital, and the soldiers have arrived at the border soon. You all can go down. As long as that bitch doesn't return to Dongling, it doesn't matter to me whether he lives or dies." Gao Yan waved to them, signaling to them.
Go down.
Coming out of the elegant Fengyi Palace, Xiao Zhu followed Liu Ye closely, while secretly memorizing the route to the palace.
Liu Ye was inconvenient to ask her about her plan, so he only took her to the place where she lived before going to Xiling, letting her rest there, and then hurriedly went to report to the grandma in charge and resume her work. Xiaozhu waited for Liu Ye to leave.
, a person left the house and walked slowly back along the corridor towards Fengyi Palace.
A group of people walked towards them from a distance, and the leader was Qi Yu. Xiaozhu stood sideways on the edge of the corridor, held his breath and curtsied, and after they passed by, he followed them secretly.
Xiaozhu followed them for a while, silently observing the layout of the palace. Maybe Dongling had strengthened its defenses. There were guards everywhere. She walked around and didn't find any weak spots in the guards.
Unexpectedly, the day passed and after dark, Xiaozhu walked outside Fengyi Hall pretending to be nonchalant. The maid waiting outside Fengyi Hall recognized her and smiled at her affectionately: "Sister Huamei."
Xiaozhu couldn't call her by name, so he just smiled back at her.
"Sister Huamei, have you also come over to work for the empress?" the little palace maid asked.
"Yes." Xiaozhu replied softly and made a gesture of silence. The little palace maid quickly shut up and stood obediently. She thought Huamei had turned over and it was their head.
Suddenly there was the sound of things being smashed in the hall, and then came Gao Yan's curse: "Idiot! Apart from these few tricks, are there no other new tricks every day? Even I myself feel annoyed, let alone
Your Majesty!" Xiaozhu was listening outside, walked into the palace, walked to Gao Yan, and whispered softly: "Your Majesty, please let your servant come."
Gao Yan glanced at her, sat upright and acquiesced.
Xiaozhu's hands were very skillful, and his fingers were skillfully tangled in Gao Yan's hair. After a while, he made her a flying cloud bun, which was playful yet solemn. Gao Yan looked in the mirror and smiled with satisfaction.
"Please stay with me from now on," she said.
"Thank you, empress." Xiaozhu thanked her, and then put on makeup and changed clothes for her. Gao Yan was very satisfied with Xiaozhu's service. She looked at herself in the mirror and asked: "Huamei, do you think I am getting old?"
"
"Why, the empress's skin is so good that her age is not visible at all. Besides, the empress is beautiful and noble, with a temperament that cannot be changed by time. No one can compare with the empress." Xiaozhu said.
Gao Yan's mouth was filled with a smile when she said it, and she could tell that she felt very happy.
"Compared with the princess?" she asked.
Xiaozhu endured the nausea in his heart and said: "I have already said that my queen is unparalleled."
"Haha, Xiao Nizi is really good at talking." After she finished speaking, she pondered again, and said after a while: "I wonder if the emperor will meet the princess this time. Since the princess went to Xiling, the emperor has been in a state of despair.
"
Listening to these words, Xiaozhu's heart moved, and he suddenly had an idea. "We won't meet, right? The princess is now pampered by Emperor Xiling, how can we let her come back."
Gao Yan nodded happily when she heard what she said.
"Your Majesty, the Emperor is urging you to come over quickly." A eunuch came in from outside and bowed.
"Look at the emperor, he urges me as soon as he arrives. This can be regarded as the feeling of an old couple. He must be waiting for me to talk to him." Gao Yan said with some pride. In Dongling Harem,
For more than ten years, no concubine has been favored because no one can defeat her scheming and cruelty.
Xiao Zhu smiled, helped her up, and walked out of Fengyi Palace with her. A small sedan was waiting outside, and carried Gao Yan to Qi Yu's palace. Xiao Zhu followed several other palace maids there.
Waiting. When they arrived outside the palace, Gao Yan got down from the sedan chair. Xiaozhu hurriedly came over to support her and followed her into the room.
"Your Majesty." There was no big gift between Gao Yan and Qi Yu. She just gave him a slight greeting and came to Qi Yu's side with a smile on her face. She rubbed the shoulders of Qi Yu who was reading.
"My slave has resigned." Xiaozhu said, and when he exited the palace, he deliberately fell to the ground. "Ouch!" She screamed. Gao Yan's brows suddenly furrowed, and Qi Yu also raised his head to look at her.
"This slave deserves to die!" Xiaozhu tried to get up in a panic, but couldn't.
"Isn't she the one who followed the princess to Xiling?" Qi Yu stood up and walked to Xiao Zhu. He stretched out his hand to pull her. Gao Yan's face suddenly changed, and she rushed over and raised her hand to give Xiao Zhu a slap in the face. "
Can't she even walk steadily? Someone, pull her down!"
"This slave deserves to die! This slave deserves to die!" Xiao Zhu covered his face, but glanced at Qi Yu again, as if he had something to say.
"Queen, please go to the inner hall and wait for me first. I have something to ask her." Qi Yu glanced at Gao Yan dissatisfied. Gao Yan glared at Xiao Zhu and turned around angrily and entered the inner hall.
"You all go down, I have something to ask her." Qi Yu sent the eunuch who came in to pull Xiao Zhu away. Xiao Zhu knelt on the ground, waiting for Qi Yu to ask questions.
Qi Yu sat down, sighed and asked, "Is it okay for the princess to be in Xiling?"
"The princess is doing well in Xiling. The emperor of Xiling loves her very much, but the pain she suffered when the poison hit her was too miserable." Xiaozhu replied.
Qi Yu frowned and stood up, walking around the hall and sighing. "I can't bear to torture her with poison. I can't help myself."
"Your Majesty." Xiaozhu suddenly looked up at him and spoke with lips: "The princess wants to see you."
Qi Yu was stunned. He could see that Xiao Zhu's lips said the word princess, but he didn't understand the meaning behind it. He thought for a moment and said, "Let's go out."
Xiaozhu stood up, bowed his head and exited the hall, waiting outside.
Qi Yu thought for a moment, then turned around and entered the inner hall. Gao Yan was still sitting on the bed and sulking.
"Queen, I'm tired, let's rest." Qi Yu said to her, Gao Yan stood up and undressed him, and put her soft lips on his face.
Qi Yu responded to her and pushed her down on the bed. He had something on his mind, so he did it perfunctorily, while Gao Yan seemed to be in high spirits. It took him half an hour to calm her down. "You stay here with me tonight.
Well, I feel lonely." Qi Yu coaxed her with gentle words, and Gao Yan was getting what she wanted. She clung to him and soon fell asleep. Qi Yu gently took her arm away and got up from the bed.
