When Luo Lianyi heard Liu Hongjing ask her how she stabbed Eunuch Tong, she recounted the scene just now vividly.
"You are quite clever." Concubine Xue Shu smiled.
"If I wasn't smart, I would be drowned in ashes right now." Luo Lianyi pouted.
Liu Hongjing nodded slightly. He and Concubine Xue Shu did not carefully appreciate her "being drowned in ashes" and thought she meant death. "From today on, you are not allowed to leave the palace. For the time being, you will live in Shicui Palace. No."
With my permission, you are not allowed to leave the palace and run around." He ordered.
"Are you putting me under house arrest?" Luo Lianyi frowned displeased.
"Until I find out your identity, I must put you under house arrest." Liu Hongjing said expressionlessly.
"What about Shang Pharmacy? And what about your illness?" Luo Lianyi asked.
"If you want to go to Shang Yao Bureau, I will send someone to follow you and see a doctor for me. I will call you." Liu Hongjing said.
"Uh, okay." Luo Lianyi could only nod.
Concubine Xue Shu glanced at her and said, "If what you tell is true, the emperor will actually protect you."
Luo Lianyi thought about it, and she said: "Then please send someone to the Taifu Mansion to deliver a message, otherwise my mother will be worried."
Liu Hongjing nodded in agreement, thought for a while and asked: "Why are you living in Tai Tu's Mansion? Don't you open a medical clinic on Shou'an Street? Where is the medical clinic?"
"Because the Tutor's Mansion is safe, if you return to the hospital, you will be attacked by evil hands." Luo Lianyi playfully made a beheading gesture.
Liu Hongjing was amused by her appearance and said: "Let's go to Shicui Palace and stay. The day after tomorrow, we will drive to Sanqing Taoist Temple. Man'er, you can arrange her affairs while I go to the front hall to handle some things."
"Yes, Your Majesty, your health has just improved a little. Don't be too tired." Concubine Xue Shu put a cloak on him.
"I know." Liu Hongjing smiled gently, turned around and left Ruoxi Palace. There were already eunuchs waiting outside.
Concubine Xue Shu and Luo Lianyi were the only ones left in Ruoxi Palace. Concubine Xue Shu knew that she was a woman, so she looked much more relaxed and natural. "Fengyu, let's go," she said.
"Is Shicui Palace far away?" Luo Lianyi followed her out of the palace.
"It's not far. It's right next to my Manjun Palace. It's always been idle. You go to Manjun Palace to sit down first. I'll tell people to prepare everything before I send you there." Concubine Xue Shu said to her as she walked.
"Can I bring my mother here?" Luo Lianyi asked.
Concubine Xue Shu stopped, thought for a moment and said, "Just wait until the emperor finds out your identity."
Luo Lianyi pouted and nodded, then walked for a while and asked again: "Empress Shu, do you believe that I am a good person?"
Concubine Xue Shu stopped again. She looked at Luo Lianyi carefully and said: "It's hard to say. I hope you are a good person, but it is related to the safety of the emperor. I can't judge based on my own ideas. The emperor will investigate the matter thoroughly.
Don't worry, as long as you are a good person, we will not wrongly accuse you."
"The Emperor is so happy to have you." Luo Lianyi said sincerely. After spending the past few days with Concubine Xue Shu, she could see that the Emperor was everything to Concubine Shu. She thought she would be able to protect this man with her life.
"Your Majesty is not happy." Concubine Xue Shu lowered her head sadly and walked forward silently.
Luo Lianyi looked at her back and knew what she was referring to. She shook her head and smiled slightly. When they arrived at Manjun Palace, Concubine Xue Shu looked Luo Lianyi up and down and said, "Seeing that you are dressed so ugly, I will ask someone to give you something."
Bring me the clothes and jewelry."
Luo Lianyi looked at the gown she was wearing. It was dirty and torn from the fight with Eunuch Tong. It was indeed ugly. She smiled and nodded.
Concubine Xue Shu's maids quickly brought clothes and jewelry. Under Concubine Shu's instruction, they changed Luo Lianyi's clothes. Concubine Xue Shu looked at the person in the mirror and frowned slightly.
"Shu Fei, am I a little ugly?" Luo Lianyi asked. Because the person in the mirror was wearing a human skin mask, her appearance was very mediocre.
"It's not that you are ugly, it's that your expression is so stiff and has no aura at all. Alas! Compared with these hands, your face is so disappointing." Concubine Xue Shu was quite straightforward. She picked up Luo Lianyi's hand.
sigh.
Luo Lianyi wanted to laugh in her heart. It would be better if she didn't live up to expectations with this face. Beauties are unlucky, but luck lies with ugly women. As the old saying goes, it must make sense. If she hadn't time-traveled in Dongling, a peerless beauty, she wouldn't have been able to live up to expectations.
We wouldn't be so homeless and in danger.
"I'll take you to Shicui Palace." Concubine Xue Shu said.
Luo Lianyi hurriedly stood up and followed her. Sure enough, Shicui Palace was not far from Manjun Palace. She walked through the corridor, passed through a corner gate, and walked around a rockery. Luo Lianyi saw Xiaozhu standing at the door waiting for her.
, in addition, there were dozens of stern-faced imperial guards standing in the corridor in an orderly manner. It seemed that they were all arranged by the emperor to guard her or protect her.
"Xiao Zhu!" When Luo Lianyi saw Xiao Zhu, it was like seeing a relative for the rest of his life. He picked up her skirt and ran over to hold her hand.
"I was negligent today, but luckily you're okay." Xiaozhu also tightened her hand. When she saw Concubine Shu approaching, she quickly let go of Luo Lianyi's hand and saluted.
"Feng Yu, you must not run around, wait for the emperor's call, remember." Concubine Xue Shu stopped and warned Luo Lianyi again.
"Don't worry, Concubine Shu, I won't run around." Luo Lianyi promised her.
"Then I'm leaving. If you need anything, just ask someone to come over and say something." After Concubine Xue Shu said this, she walked into the Shicui Palace and looked around. After seeing that everything was in order, she turned and left.
"Xiao Zhu, you scared me to death!" Luo Lianyi and Xiao Zhu were the only two people in the hall. Luo Lianyi hugged Xiao Zhu and said.
"I heard about it over there and was scared to death. Later I heard that the emperor had arranged for you to come here, so I asked the emperor to come over and protect you. Well, don't be afraid, I will always guard you.
"A gentle smile appeared on Xiaozhu's cold face.
"It's quite clean here. I can read with peace of mind. By the way, go and bring some books from Master Mu Shi's collection so that we can practice together." Luo Lianyi suggested.
Xiaozhu nodded happily: "Okay, the swordsmanship of the Duanmu family's swordsmen is not difficult to deal with. I think we can decipher their moves one by one if we figure it out for a while."
"Those sword masters are not difficult. The key is the martial arts skills of Eunuch Tong. I haven't seen the secret yet." Luo Lianyi frowned.
Xiaozhu nodded: "I think he has the same family number as the second grandfather I killed. They are both weird. They should have been created by their brothers."
"Self-created? It's possible. I wonder if he will record it in a book." Luo Lianyi pondered.
"There will definitely be records, but I'm afraid it's unlikely that we will steal his secrets. Also, Eunuch Tong's internal strength cultivation is progressing very quickly. I saw him fighting against Master Sima yesterday. Compared to what I did in Sanqing Taoist Temple,
When he fought, his internal strength reached a new level," Xiaozhu said.
