Chapter 2283 Chapter Concubine

Chen Hao did not let the paper Gu worm directly enter the harem where Concubine Zhang was. Instead, he put away the Gu worm, and then used his shadow-possessing ability to sneak into the harem silently.

Although Concubine Zhang is just an ordinary concubine, her cultivation is in the middle stage of integration after all. Not only does the harem she lives in have much better protection than ordinary royals, but she is also a super strong person.

The paper Gu insects made by Chen Hao were all of the Void Refining level. Although they were extremely small, there was no guarantee that they would not be stopped by the protection, and there was no guarantee that they would not be discovered by Concubine Zhang.

But it doesn't matter if you use the shadow ability to sneak.

Even Emperor Xuanqing of the late Mahayana period would not be able to discover the ability to possess a shadow, let alone Concubine Zhang.

After entering, Chen Hao discovered that Concubine Zhang's harem was much larger than the Eighty-Sixth Palace. It was so empty that it was even wider than the tall buildings on earth.

Moreover, Concubine Zhang's harem is not as deserted as the Eighty-Sixth Palace, with Du Xueqing alone. Instead, it is quite popular with people coming and going.

In addition to the maids and attendants, there are also many monks, dressed in different ages, in different rooms. Some are meditating, some are practicing, and some are busy with other things.

These monks are all monks or guest ministers of Concubine Zhang's family. Although Concubine Zhang has entered the palace and is the emperor's concubine, monks are different from ordinary people, so naturally they will not lose contact with the family.

Concubine Zhang was sitting upright in a brightly lit hall. She was tall, dignified in appearance, not very beautiful, but as a monk in the middle stage of integration, she naturally had a strong majesty.

Around her, there were more than a dozen monks standing or standing, as well as two young maids, standing respectfully around Concubine Zhang.

Although it was the first time for Chen Hao to see Concubine Zhang, he was no stranger to her because he had the memory of the old man in the late stage of refining the void.

As for the other monks, including the maids, he also knew their names, origins and personal circumstances from his memory.

Chen Hao sneaked into the hall, hid in the shadow under the candlelight, and watched the situation quietly.

Concubine Zhang glanced at the sky outside the window: "It's been more than an hour and Zuo Yan hasn't come back yet. It must be a failure, right?"

Zuo Yan is the name of the old man in the late stage of refining the void.

No one said anything, but their faces showed recognition.

With Zuo Yan's level of cultivation, no matter how powerful the Eighty-Sixth Princess is, she cannot resist her. As long as she meets her, she will be killed instantly.

Under normal circumstances, Zuo Yan would come back to life within a quarter of an hour at most.

Even if Zuo Yan was careful, in order not to leave any traces, even destroying the corpses and destroying traces, it would only take half an hour at most.

It's been more than an hour now and I still haven't come back. It's probably because something went wrong.

"Your Majesty, why don't I go to the Eighty-six Palace in person and see what's going on?"

A monk in his forties with dark skin said.

Concubine Zhang shook her head: "No, you are all members of the Zhang family. Many people know about you. There must be a lot of people watching you at Eighty-Six. If you go out to investigate, if anyone finds out, Zuo Yancheng will be put to death regardless of whether he succeeds or not."

If the matter is connected with us, it will be troublesome to attract Ouchi's investigation.

Eighty-six is ​​not important, what is important is the other royal families who have the strength to threaten us."

Everyone nodded.

"Your Majesty is right. Even if Zuo Yan doesn't succeed, it doesn't matter. We are definitely not the only ones who want eighty-six lives. After this court meeting, there will definitely be many people who can't hold back."

A monk in his thirties said: "We don't have to worry about Zuo Yan betraying us. After all, his only bloodline is in our hands, and he only has a few months to live. This assassination will unleash all his remaining life potential."

, even if it fails, he will die suddenly on the spot, both physically and mentally."

Concubine Zhang said: "I'm not worried about this, I just want to know why Zuo Yan failed?

Does the Eighty-sixth Princess have any other trump cards?"

She looked thoughtful.

No one spoke, they all frowned and thought.

"Your Majesty's confusion is also my confusion."

An old monk shook his head and said: "Zuo Yan's cultivation, at least here, is lower than that of the empress alone and above all of us. Moreover, he does not have long lifespan and his bloodline is in our hands. There is no reason to betray him."

, is there a hidden master in the Void Refining Stage protecting Du Xueqing?"

Hearing this, everyone looked stern.

Only Concubine Zhang shook her head: "Impossible. If Du Xueqing is protected by a hidden master, he will definitely fight with Zuo Yan. How can a mere eighty-six palace hide the sound of two masters fighting in the Void Refining Stage?

, will definitely disturb the Tianxing Formation, and everyone will know it by then, unless..." At this point, she suddenly changed her words: "Unless the master hidden next to the Eighty-Sixth Princess is in the integration stage, and will be dead in seconds.

Zuo Yan will be silent."

Everyone was shocked.

"Impossible, my dear, a master in the integration stage is a rare big shot even in the imperial court. How can he hide in the Eighty-Sixth Palace without being noticed?"

"That's right. Besides, how can Eighty-Six be so virtuous as to allow a master in the integration stage to secretly assist her like a shadow?"

Immediately, many people shook their heads.

Concubine Zhang did not refute, but nodded: "What you said makes sense, I just raised a possibility.

This is why I am very puzzled as to why Zuo Yan failed."

Everyone was silent.

After the atmosphere solidified for a while, Concubine Zhang said: "Forget it, it's pointless for everyone to wait like this. Let's go and practice separately. How about Eighty-Six? It won't take long for us to know."

Everyone said yes, stood up one after another, and bowed their hands to say goodbye.

Concubine Zhang stopped the monk who was in his forties and had dark skin: "Zhang Peng, go and take care of Zuo Yan's son. Although he doesn't know anything, this is a gap that cannot be left open."

"Yes, empress."

The monk named Zhang Peng saluted, turned around and left quickly.

Other monks also left the hall one after another.

After everyone left, Concubine Zhang turned around and looked at the dark night outside the open window, with a thoughtful look in her eyes. She didn't know what she was thinking.

"Help me back to the bedroom."

After a long while, Concubine Zhang said.

"Yes, empress."

Two maids came up, one took her arm, the other held her hand with both hands, and walked out of the hall elegantly.

Chen Hao did not follow Concubine Zhang, but wandered in the shadows and followed the monk named Zhang Peng.

After Zhang Peng went downstairs, he came to the eighth floor of the harem and walked to the door of the innermost room on the right. He didn't knock on the door, but quietly used his hand to strike, and cast a ban to close the room.

Isolate.

Then, he smiled and pushed the door open.

Chen Hao stayed in his shadow and followed him in.

Behind the door is a rather spacious room with simple furnishings. On the bed against the wall, a young monk is sitting, practicing with his eyes closed.
