"Mother, don't be sad. It's not like my daughter won't come back when she returns to the palace this time." Concubine Wu thought that Chen's blush was because she was sad for her departure.
"Well, okay." Mrs. Chen didn't say anything more. She watched Concubine Wu get into the carriage and closed the curtain.
The happiest people were the two brothers Wu Xian and Wu Yu.
When Concubine Wu was at home, she supervised them every day, and the girls in Rouge Garden were almost strangers to them.
"You two!" Unexpectedly, Concubine Wu suddenly opened the car curtain.
"Sister!" The two of them immediately stood up straight.
Lu Yun couldn't help laughing.
These two brothers were so afraid of Concubine Wu.
"Yue'er, don't worry, my mother will take good care of them." Mrs. Chen said with a smile.
"Yeah, yeah, yeah!" The two brothers nodded like chickens pecking at rice.
"Everyone, please take care!"
Concubine Wu's carriage started slowly, with Xiao Hanzi and others leading the way as usual, while Lu Yun was accompanying the carriage as always.
After traveling for a while, when the car arrived at the palace gate, there was a sudden commotion ahead.
"What's wrong?" Concubine Wu opened the car curtain.
Little Hanzi hurriedly ran over from the front: "Concubine Wu, Eunuch Lu, and the guards guarding the palace gate do not allow us to enter, saying that they want to check the carriage."
"That's unreasonable!" Concubine Wu laughed angrily: "Who gave them the power? Xiao Hanzi, just order the team to move forward. I want to see who dares to stop me!"
"Yes, empress!"
The motorcade moved forward slowly again, but stopped again after half a cup of tea.
"snort!"
Lu Yun stopped watching and walked straight forward with a cold face.
"Concubine Wu is returning from the palace to visit relatives. Who gave you the order to stop her here?"
The palace guard sneered and said: "There was a commotion at the Chen Yuan Lantern Festival, and a large number of civilians died. It is said that some people took advantage of the chaos to commit crimes. We are just doing a routine inspection."
"Oh, routine inspection?" Lu Yun looked at them with a trace of pity in his eyes.
These people didn't even know they were being used as guns.
"Then let's see if Concubine Wu wants to enter the palace. Do you dare to stop her?"
"Enter the palace!"
As Lu Yun waved his hand, the Yuexin Palace car behind him slowly started to drive away, and this time, no one said anything.
The two palace guards' faces turned green and red, but they didn't dare to make any move.
"If I were you, I would take the initiative to receive the punishment. If it's too late, something might happen." Lu Yun left these words and then left.
Yuexin Palace.
As soon as everyone came back, Lu Yun divided the work among them and cleaned everything inside and outside.
By the time all this work is over, it will be almost noon.
"Why are you so tired after a trip out of the palace? Xiao Yunzi, come here and give me a squeeze on my shoulders." Concubine Wu was lying on the window sill. The midday sun was shining down on her, and with her delicate face, she looked like a goddess coming to the world.
"Yes, empress,"
Lu Yun's fingers pressed rhythmically on her shoulders. From this angle, Concubine Wu's collarbone could be clearly seen.
"Well, Xiao Yunzi, your skills are getting better and better." Concubine Wu closed her eyes comfortably.
At this time, a palace maid came to report that it was Concubine Yin who wanted to see her.
"Concubine Yin? Why is she here? Come in quickly."
Lu Yun stepped aside knowingly.
"Sister." After a while, Concubine Yin came in with small steps.
She was dressed more elegantly today, with her hair tied up in a bun with an emerald jade rocker, and a plain white dress, like a blooming white lotus.
Lu Yun glanced at her. He also had a sign-in reward at Qionghua Palace.
And his glance happened to be seen by Concubine Yin.
Concubine Yin blushed for no reason.
"Xiaoyunzi!"
"Empress!"
Concubine Wu pointed at the door angrily: "Hurry and get some vegetables and fruits, and also tell the kitchen, Concubine Yin will have lunch here."
"Young man, I obey!" Lu Yun retreated.
At this time, only Concubine Wu and Concubine Yin were left in the Yuexin Palace.
"younger sister."
Concubine Wu warmly greeted Concubine Yin to sit down: "Sister, you came just in time. I just came back."
"Sister, I heard that there was a riot at the Chenyuan Lantern Festival and many people died. Sister, are you not injured?" Concubine Yin asked with concern with her big watery eyes.
"Thank you for your concern, sister. Sister is very good and nothing is wrong." Concubine Wu said with a smile.
She did not tell Concubine Yin about the assassination by Queen Dugu, because it would be of no use and would only add to her worries.
"Sister..." Concubine Yin chatted casually for a while, then stopped talking.
Just in time, Lu Yun personally came up with a melon and fruit plate.
"You two ladies, please use it slowly."
Concubine Wu picked up a crystal clear nut and was about to put it into her mouth, but she found that Concubine Yin was not in high spirits.
"Sister, if you have anything, don't keep it in your heart. Tell me. I'll see if I can help you think of a solution."
Concubine Yin raised her head, her eyes were a little red.
"Sister, two young eunuchs have died in my palace in the past few days. They came to do an autopsy and they said they committed suicide, but I really don't believe it."
"Why?" Concubine Wu asked, the expression on her face didn't seem to care very much.
It was too common for a few eunuchs to die in the deep palace compound. Maybe Concubine Yin was a little too kind-hearted.
"I just picked them out of the prison yard some time ago. I can clearly feel their yearning for a follow-up life. How could they commit suicide?"
"Empress Yin." Suddenly, Lu Yun interrupted: "Are you saying that the two young eunuchs who died just came out of the prison yard not long ago?"
"yes!"
"In addition to the two who have died, are there any other young eunuchs in the palace who were transferred from the prison yard at the same time?"
"Well, there is another one. At that time, Qionghua Palace had a total of three young eunuchs transferred." Concubine Yin didn't understand why Lu Yun was obsessed with this point.
"Well, I understand." Lu Yun nodded and said nothing more.
But his eyes were like a deep pool.
Getting closer!
No, I have to reach the limit of energy and blood as soon as possible, then break through to the realm of strength, and then join the West Factory, so that I can truly have some power to protect myself!
"Sister, those two little eunuchs died in extremely tragic circumstances. Sister...sister is a little scared." Concubine Yin said coquettishly.
Concubine Wu glanced at Lu Yun with her beautiful eyes, and then at Concubine Yin, with a sly smile suddenly appearing on her face.
"Sister, how about this? How about I lend you Xiao Yunzi for a few days?"
"ah?"
"ah?"
Lu Yun and Concubine Yin opened their mouths at the same time.
This Concubine Wu is really good at getting things done!
However, Lu Yun did not reject this at all.
After all, not only is Concubine Yin a great beauty, but the most important thing is that her sign-in reward is in the inner court of Qionghua Palace.
Moreover, he had a premonition.
The sign-in reward this time will definitely allow him to quickly reach the limit of high-level Qi and blood!
