A woman was crowned king? Hu Xiaotian suddenly felt incredible, and suddenly a flash of light flashed in his mind, wasn't Qiqi the Princess of Yongyang in the past? Could it be that this little girl suddenly became the King of Yongyang during the time when he left Dakang? Damn it,
With this girl's scheming and methods, it may not be impossible, but isn't she Long Yelin's daughter? She was chased by the old emperor back then, and fled in a hurry under the protection of Quan De'an. If they hadn't met her, I'm afraid they would have died.
How could Pengyin Mountain suddenly be favored by the old emperor?
Hu Xiaotian was a little confused. Why would the old emperor make Qiqi the king? And also entrust her with important tasks? But no matter what happened, Qiqi being made the King of Yongyang should be good news to him.
After all, he was also her savior. However, although Qiqi Na Nizi was not old, she was extremely cruel at heart and had a changeable temperament. In the past, she was quite careless towards her, but at that time, after all, he was of value to her.
, now that she has transformed into King Yongyang, I wonder if her attitude towards herself will change.
Xiao Tianmu said: "What is the third brother's plan?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "I have no plans for the time being. I will first understand the situation and then consider returning to the palace."
Xiao Tianmu nodded and said: "That's fine!"
Hu Xiaotian asked: "Is there any news about Feiyan?"
Xiao Tianmu said: "I've never seen her appear before. It's really strange."
Hu Xiaotian couldn't help but feel worried, and he whispered: "Second brother, please send more people to investigate."
Xiao Tianmu said: "Don't worry, I will notify you as soon as there is news about her."
Although the situation in the Dakang Palace has changed, it has not had a great impact on the daily lives of these eunuchs. No matter who is the master, they have to be cared for. It is the hard work of thousands of eunuchs and maids that can maintain the stability of the palace.
The normal functioning of this huge family.
Shi Xuedong has become obviously restless recently. The old emperor was successfully restored to power. He originally thought that his father could make a comeback. He would be reinstated and serve as the Minister of the Ministry of Human Resources of Dakang. He would also be able to get rid of his servile eunuch career and start a new life.
Life in the old yamen, but things have changed in the palace for a whole month, but there is no news that the old man has been re-appointed. Various signs indicate that the old emperor seems to want to maintain the current situation and has no idea of ββre-appointing his former ministers.
. Shi Xuedong's heart changed from excitement at the beginning to anxiety, from anxiety to disappointment, and as time went by, it gradually turned into despair. The reason why he has not reached the stage of despair is because there is still a glimmer of hope in his heart.
This glimmer of hope is his beloved brother Hu Xiaotian. Maybe Hu Xiaotian can change everything after he comes back. Although Hu Xiaotian is just an eunuch like him, for some reason, he always feels that Hu Xiaotian has magical power.
As a buyer of the Siyuan Bureau, going out to the palace every day to make purchases is a required course for Shi Xuedong. Since the old emperor came to power, he has no intention of doing these things. He simply pushed everything to Xiao Zhuozi and would rather sit in the market.
Gather at nearby teahouses to listen to some reliable or unreliable rumors.
Shi Xuedong was listening with his ears to the people sitting next to him talking about Ji Feihua. However, someone sat down opposite him.
Shi Xuedong was slightly startled. Although he was a eunuch and a distinguished eunuch, who could be so bold as to dare to sit across from him? When he raised his eyes, his eyes suddenly widened, and then he opened his mouth, his mouth was filled with joy.
The flesh is exposed: "It turns out..."
Hu Xiaotian, wearing a hat to protect himself from the sun, raised his index finger and hissed at Shi Xuedong, telling him to keep quiet so as not to attract other people's attention.
Shi Xuedong hurriedly closed his mouth and looked around. After making sure that no one noticed them, he said with a smile on his face: "Brother, when did you come back?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "This is not the place to talk. Let's go to the carriage and talk."
Shi Xuedong nodded repeatedly, threw a piece of silver on the table, followed Hu Xiaotian out, and arrived at a carriage in front of the door. As soon as they got on, the carriage began to drive slowly on the street.
The feelings Shi Xuedong had endured for a long time could finally burst out. He grabbed Hu Xiaotian's shoulders with both hands and said, "Good brother, you are back."
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "We haven't seen each other for a few months, Brother Dong seems to be rich again. After all, he is pampered in the palace, and his life must be leisurely and contented."
Shi Xuedong complained endlessly: "Brother, you are so glorious when you are sent to Dayong as an envoy to repatriate marriage. I lived in the palace with fear and fear. After all, I am not a slave. How can I be leisurely and contented?"
Hu Xiaotian quickly turned to the topic: "Brother Dong, I heard that there have been quite a few changes in the palace recently."
Shi Xuedong nodded and said, "That's right." He told Hu Xiaotian everything he knew about the situation. Although Shi Xuedong was in the palace, he really didn't know much inside information, which made Hu Xiaotian feel a little agitated.
disappointment.
Shi Xuedong sighed: "Brother, do you think it's strange? Since His Majesty has returned to sit on the throne, why doesn't he take down all the ministers who betrayed him in the past? Do you really intend to let things go by the wayside?"
Of course Hu Xiaotian knew that what Shi Xuedong cared about was not when the old emperor would settle his accounts, but when his father would be able to resume his official duties.
Hu Xiaotian said: "I came to see my elder brother today to ask for something."
Shi Xuedong said: "If you have anything to do, just tell me, we two brothers have nothing else to ask for. If you hadn't protected me back then, I wouldn't be where I am today." Don't look at Shi Xuedong as a domineering government official in the past, but this time
More than a year of palace life has worn away this guy's sharp edges. He has gradually adapted to the role of a eunuch. He originally thought that he would have to wait on people in the palace for the rest of his life, just muddle along and live as long as he can.
Originally, he was content with life, but he did not expect that the old emperor would be successfully restored. This incident rekindled his hope of leaving the palace and regaining freedom.
Hu Xiaotian said: "I want you to arrange for me to enter the palace!"
Shi Xuedong smiled and said: "Brother, you are joking. Just because of your identity, you still want me to arrange it..." At this point, he suddenly realized something again and lowered his voice: "Do you want to enter the palace quietly without disturbing anyone?"
Hu Xiaotian nodded and said: "I heard that the palace is now headed by King Yongyang. I want to meet her first."
Shi Xuedong said: "That's Princess Yongyang! She is very famous now."
Hu Xiaotian said: "I'm not going to hide it from you. The reason why I was able to become the envoy to Dayong in the history of sending marriages depends entirely on Ji Feihua's recommendation. Now that Ji Feihua is dead, it's hard to say what the court will do to me."
At this time, Shi Xuedong woke up from the joy of reuniting with Hu Xiaotian after a long separation. Hu Xiaotian was the popular person in front of Ji Feihua. This was a widely known fact in the palace. Ji Feihua fell. All the cronies around him in the past were eliminated.
, Hu Xiaotian was lucky to be on an envoy to Dayong during this period, otherwise it is difficult to say whether it would have affected him. No wonder Hu Xiaotian did not dare to go to see the saint after he came back.
Historian Dong said: "Now it is Mr. Quan De'an who is in charge of the house again."
Hu Xiaotian said: "I must first see the little princess and find out what her attitude is towards me. If she is willing to come forward to protect me, everything will be solved naturally. Before I see her, I must not let anything happen when I come back."
People know.β
Shi Xuedong said: "Because of Ji Feihua's trouble recently, the interrogation in and out of the palace has been much stricter than in the past. Even if I can take you back to Siyuan Bureau, it is not that easy to see King Yongyang. Not to mention the palace.
There are guards checking every intersection in the city, and there are always people around her to protect her."
Hu Xiaotian asked: "Is she still living in Chuxiu Palace?"
Shi Xuedong shook his head and lowered his voice and said: "Move! Ever since Queen Jian hanged herself in Xinning Palace, she has moved away from Chuxiu Palace. It is said that she felt that the two palaces were too close to each other, and now she has moved to Zilan Palace.
.β
Hu Xiaotian was overjoyed when he heard this and said, "Could it be the place where Princess Anping lived before she got married?"
Historian Dong said: "That's exactly where it is."
Hu Xiaotian was really overjoyed. As the saying goes, it takes no effort to find a place without looking for anything. He was just thinking about how to get close to Qiqi. The opportunity came to him. There is a secret passage from the Siyuan Bureau wine cellar directly to the Purple Orchid Palace.
, Hu Xiaotian had used this secret passage to have a tryst with Long Xiyue in the past, but he didn't expect that it would finally come in handy today. He put his arm around Shi Xuedong's shoulders and said: "Brother Dong, you have to help me no matter what this time, as long as you
Take me back to Siyuan Bureau Wine Cellar, and I will take care of the other things."
Historian Host: "Wine cellar?"
Hu Xiaotian nodded.
The historian said: "Just a few days ago, Eunuch Quan had the wine cellar sealed, and he also issued an order saying that anyone who dared to remove the seal and enter the wine cellar without permission would be killed."
Hu Xiaotian said: "Don't worry about him. You only need to take me to the place, and I will solve other things. If there is any problem, I will take care of it. You will never be involved."
Shi Xuedong hesitated for a while, then finally nodded and said: "Okay!"
Although the security of the Dakang Palace is still tight, it has been relaxed a bit compared to the past few days, especially for purchases by the Bureau like Shi Xuedong. Because the weather is getting hotter, several carts of fruits and vegetables are transported back to the palace almost every day, along the way.
The guard is just doing a symbolic check.
Hu Xiaotian hid in the fruit cart and successfully sneaked into the palace and entered the Siyuan Bureau. It had been many days since he left the Dakang Palace, and he still felt a little warm when he returned to his hometown. Of course, Hu Xiaotian could not show up in public under this situation.
The group of subordinates chatted and reminisced about old times.
When we arrived at Siyuan Bureau, it was already getting dark. Shi Xuedong found an excuse to drive away the other young eunuchs. Hu Xiaotian jumped out of the fruit cart and quickly hid in a dark corner.
Shi Xuedong looked around and made sure no one noticed him, so he whispered to him: "The wine cellar has been re-locked and sealed by Eunuch Quan. I don't have the key, so I can only help you get here."
I sent two updates in the early morning. Many book friends responded to the late update. The problem with the afternoon update is that Octopus has to go to work in the morning and only has time to type in the afternoon. I wrote these two chapters very late tonight. I read them.
Looking at the monthly vote list, it seems that I can no longer keep the second place. To be honest, I am really unwilling to be surpassed after working hard for so long. It seems that there are too many things in this world that are not proportional to the effort! You can only do your best.
, brothers and sisters who still have monthly tickets, please support Octopus, maybe your monthly ticket can determine the ranking of the medical system! (To be continued)
