When Long Chen came back, Hong'er anxiously asked about the situation.
Long Chen hugged Hong'er, enjoyed the softness of her body, and said happily: "The empress did not agree at first. She said that you are the concubine's personal maid, and she was worried that you would be unfaithful and do bad things."
Hong'er immediately said: "No, the imperial concubine's personal maid is Xue'er. I am not. I just followed the imperial concubine."
Long Chen patted Hong'er's back and said comfortingly: "Don't be anxious, listen to me."
Hong'er nodded and looked at Long Chen nervously.
"I told you, Xue'er is actually my confidant, and you just followed her not long ago."
"Besides, you are my woman, you will listen to me."
Long Chen's eyes stared at Hong'er, penetrating into Hong'er's soul.
Hong'er looked into Long Chen's eyes and said seriously: "Yes, I will be very obedient. I am your woman, and my sister is yours."
Long Chen's eyes were gentle, he nodded slightly, and then suddenly grabbed Hong'er's arm tightly and said coldly: "Sister Hong'er, the queen did not agree!"
Hong'er's eyes were stunned and she muttered: "No... I agree."
Long Chen shook his head slightly and said: "My Majesty, I don't believe you at all. In the end, I will vouch for you with my own life and Zhu'er's life."
"I swear to my face that if Sister Hong'er betrays, Zhu'er and I are willing to be executed in Ling Chi."
Hong'er looked at Long Chen, tears welling up in her eyes. She didn't expect that Long Chen would do this for her, and actually use his own wealth and life as a guarantee.
"Liu Feng, my sister owes you. Don't worry, my sister will never betray your empress. When the concubine dies, the three of us will be together."
Hong'er hugged Long Chen and burst into tears with emotion.
Long Chen hugged Hong'er and said, "Sister Hong'er, our lives are in your hands."
Hong'er burst into tears...
Long Chen thought to himself: I am really a genius, at the level of a movie king!
Hong'er cried for a full quarter of an hour before she stopped.
Long Chen comforted him: "Okay, Sister Hong'er, stop crying."
"Things are still being planned. You can return to the imperial concubine temporarily and everything will continue as usual."
"Just pretend what happened today didn't happen."
"I will inform you when the queen is ready to take action."
"Remember, if this happens, you, like Pearl, will be able to live a life of being a young master, with maids to serve you, someone to help you walk, a sedan to go out, clothes to wear, food to eat, and mouth to open."
Long Chen offered some inducements, and Hong'er nodded seriously: "Sister, remember, you have to be careful too."
Long Chen hugged Hong'er, kissed Hong's lips affectionately, and said, "My identity as a eunuch at the queen's house is also that of a eunuch. Don't make a mistake."
Hong'er nodded, hugged Long Chen with both hands, and said, "Sister, go back first."
Long Chen wiped away Hong'er's tears, took out a pill from his body, and said, "Swallow this pill, be careful there is something here."
Long Chen patted Hong'er's belly. Hong'er understood immediately, looked slightly shy, opened her mouth and swallowed the pill.
"Sister is gone."
Opening the door, Hong'er looked at Long Chen affectionately and walked back slowly.
The key chess pieces have fallen, and things can slowly move forward.
In the whole plan, Hong'er is an important chess piece.
To detonate the harem, Hong'er is needed.
In the morning, Long Chen was a little tired after serving the master's wife and cleaning up Hong'er just now.
After eating something, Long Chen went back to his room and took a nap.
Hong'er came out of Liu Mansion and walked back slowly.
She walked slowly, partly because of the pain, and partly because she was thinking about what to say when she got back.
By the time she reached the entrance of the Royal Concubine's Palace, Hong'er had already thought of her words.
Taking small steps, Hong'er entered the pavilion, where Concubine Li was enjoying the shade and listening to music.
A female musician played the harp, and a singer sang a cappella:
Tenderness is like water, good times are like dreams.
I can’t bear to look at the Magpie Bridge on my way back!
If the love between two people lasts for a long time, how can it last day and night?
The singer's voice was clear and clear, like broken jade and silk. Concubine Li and the surrounding maids were all fascinated by it.
Hong'er walked into the pavilion softly, not daring to disturb her, so she waited nearby.
After the singer finished singing, Concubine Li realized that Hong'er was back.
"King Wu of the Great Zhou Dynasty was excellent in both civil and military affairs. It is said that there are many scribes in Southern Liang, and his poetry is unparalleled."
Concubine Li couldn't help but admire.
This song "Magpie Bridge Immortal" was given to Ji Xianxian by Long Chen, and it spread to Xixia. Concubine Li especially liked it.
No one of the surrounding maids dared to answer the question.
They knew that Long Chen's poetry and prose were peerless, and they also knew that Concubine Li was particularly fond of them.
However, Long Chen was King Wu of the Great Zhou Dynasty and the mortal enemy of Xixia. Shi Le was fighting and confronting Long Chen on the front line.
Anyone who dares to say good things about Long Chen is committing treason and collaborating with the enemy.
Concubine Li waved her hand, and all the musicians, singers, and maids withdrew, leaving only Hong'er present.
Since Xue'er's death, Hong'er has become Concubine Li's confidant. The two of them often talk quietly while others retreat.
Although they had never heard of it, they all had guesses in their minds that it should be related to Xiao Lizi.
"how?"
Concubine Li asked coldly.
Hong'er bowed and replied: "It seems that something big happened with the queen, but Liu Feng refuses to say what it is."
"Slave, it will take some time. I will definitely be able to dig something out of Liu Feng's mouth."
Hong'er said it very confidently.
Concubine Li was dissatisfied at first, but later felt that things should not be rushed.
"Okay, just keep walking with that Liu Feng. No matter what method you use, you have to trick him out."
Concubine Li poked Hong'er's forehead with her finger and said.
Hong'er was a little embarrassed and said: "My Lady, that Liu Feng is a eunuch just like Liu Yubi... I have to think of something."
Obviously, Concubine Li wanted to seduce Hong'er.
A woman's ultimate weapon and most convenient weapon is her body, and her most common tactic is seduction.
But Long Chen's public identity was that of a eunuch, so the imperial concubine's seduction obviously didn't apply.
Concubine Li sneered: "Don't worry about whether they are eunuchs or not. Eunuchs are also transformed from men. They want women more."
"If you try to seduce me, you will definitely succeed."
"Get out of his mouth, you must get it out."
Hong'er nodded and said, "Okay, I will definitely do it."
Concubine Li nodded with satisfaction: "If this is done, I will let you be the palace official of the harem! Just like Yuyao, the entire harem will be under your control!"
The position promised by Concubine Li is equivalent to the chief steward of the harem, with great power.
If it were before, Hong'er would be heartbroken.
But now, Hong'er knows that both Shi Le and the Queen want to kill the Li family, and she just wants to leave Concubine Li and save her own life.
"Thank you, ma'am."
Hong'er immediately knelt down and kowtowed to express gratitude.
Concubine Li sneered and said: "Get up and do your best. When I go up, you can climb the dragon and follow the phoenix."
Hong'er kowtowed again and said, "I remember this, slave."
Concubine Li said coldly: "Let the singer come in and sing a few more of Long Chengen's poems."
Hong'er got up and immediately went out and called the musicians and singers inside to continue playing music and singing.
...
Yangcheng, Taishou Mansion.
Zhang Qian and the other five entered the room, and Wu Jian was waiting inside.
"Old Wu, what's going on?"
Several people sat down.
Wu Jian closed the door and said, "There is a letter from King Wu."
In the Long Family Army, Long Chen's true confidants are the six people here. Zhao Ying has just been under his command, and the time is too short, so Wu Jian does not trust them.
Especially Zhao Ying's identity, she was the woman of the prefect Zhao Lun, Wu Jian could not always trust her.
