Chapter 53 The water falls and the black clouds urge

In the night, there were many figures in the remote part of the cold palace, which had always been cold. Under an abandoned palace wall, a woman in a black cloak leaned her back against the wall, and her face covered in black was blurred, but from the curvature of the cloak, the woman's frequent eyes could be seen.

I don't know how long she waited. The woman was a little anxious, and the steps under her feet were disordered.

The rattling branches popped up the joy of the strings, and the ground was mottled moonlight and the black shadow of branches and leaves. After a long time, a woman in the same black cloak came from a distance, followed by a maid. She was very cautious and took light steps to look back from time to time.

Seeing the person she was waiting for, the previous woman couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and her shoulders dispersed. She greeted her and muttered, "Your mother is here."

There are a little indistinguishable things in the respectful tone.

"What's the matter with you?" The coquettish voice was very impatient: "Say it, you said there was something important to discuss with me. What on earth is it?"

"Didn't the Empress already know? If I hadn't talked about how to solve this problem, would the Empress personally risk coming to this cold palace?

The voice was calm and hoarse, with no ups and downs, but it made people chill in their hearts.

"Who the hell are you?" Stimid by the words, the man looked up and showed a weak face under the moonlight, which was undoubtedly Wang Shu. But the woman who had been waiting did not reply. She also raised her head, but her face was hidden by a silver mask, which still made people unable to see her identity.

"You don't need to know who I am, just know that I'm here to help you." With that, the woman turned her back again, leaving only a silver arc shining under the white light of the moonlight.

Wang Shu was shocked by the strangeness. She looked back at her confidant not far away before she calmed down.

"Then you can say it."

She poses as a high-ranking person, and she doesn't know whether Wang Shu is appeasing her current mood or wants to show her status. But the other party doesn't care.

An indistinguishable laughter came out: "The Empress got the emperor's will to investigate Wu Wanqing's matter. Isn't this to attract fire to herself?"

Hearing this, Wang Shu frowned. This matter was only settled in the afternoon. The concubines in the harem only heard about it. How did she know? Moreover, she seems to know that it has something to do with herself.

"The Empress must be very distressed at this time..." With a little sarcasticity, the man saw Wang Shu's face change, and Fang continued to say, "How about I give you an idea?"

"Do you give me some advice? Well, let's talk about it." Wang Shu looked unconcerned and looked down at the shadow under her feet.

The man raised his head, and under the mask was a white neck. At first sight, he knew that this woman was extraordinary. Wang Shu was very hostile. Could it be that he wanted to climb dragons and phoenixes?

"What is the mother looking at?" Wang Shu's eyes made the woman uncomfortable.

"I can help you get the imperial favor. What do you think?"

"Huh, hehe... No need, it's better to keep yourself. Do you still want to hear my idea?" Seeing that Wang Shu interrupted the conversation, the woman raised it again.

Wang Shu nodded and said "um" gently.

I saw the woman walking in place: "If the Empress wants to keep herself from doing nothing, someone must come out to bear this name, but Shen Guifei is not difficult to do it. She is very favored, and I'm afraid she will find trouble for herself."

"She may not be so favored." Thinking of what she saw in the Moon Hall in the afternoon, Wang Shu didn't care about the view of the people in the palace.

The woman wearing a mask did not answer her words, but continued: "But the Empress's companion can sacrifice one or two."

"I don't need your reminder, and I naturally know what to do."

Hearing that this woman was going to come up with this idea, Wang Shu's eyes all dispersed. After taking over this burden, Wang Shu has already figured out the way out. If she wants to get the emperor's approval, she has to find out the "true murderer" as soon as possible.

No decision has been made yet, just because it has not been determined who will take the blame.

Companion... Wang Shu's mind flashed an idea that the man had lost power, and she was useless to the Wang family, so she didn't have to worry about anything.

"If you want to say this, it's really stupid that I would have told you such nonsense for so long." Wang Shu said coldly, holding the tree on her side of her body, palming hard, breaking a branch and making a "clap" sound.

"Don't panic, it seems that there must be a candidate in your heart, but I still want to remind you of the last sentence." The woman only sneered behind the mask when she saw Wang Shu's appearance. And she couldn't help weakening her voice, making people sound evil.

"Say it." Wang Shu listened to this man's words at this time, and her tone eased a lot.

"It's better for the mother to find someone who can catch her pain, and she has not been in direct contact with the mother." After saying that, the woman's right hand, her black cloak was blown up by the wind, and she could faintly see the woman in a palace costume. Wang Shu rushed forward, but she still couldn't see the embroidery on her skirt.

The sentence "It's better for the Empress to find someone who can catch her pain, and she has not been in direct contact with the Empress" wandered around Wang Shu's heart.

Only by grasping the painful foot can it be used for her regardless of the cost, and the person who has not been in direct contact with her in this matter can take the blame and bite her.

Seeing the deep color on Wang Shu's face, the woman smiled in a low voice, and then came up with an idea: "You don't have to be embarrassed. This person has already appeared..."

"Who is it?" Wang Shu asked quickly, and her rapid voice shocked the birds around the cold palace, and the sound of wings seemed very abrupt at night.

The woman put her hands in front of her, and her lips opened lightly: "It's the person from Guixiang Palace. As for who it is, you can think for yourself. Ha..."

"What on earth do you want to help me this time?" Wang Shu, who was broken at one point, naturally knew it, but she knew that everything had to pay a price, and she really couldn't see through the woman in front of her.

The woman turned her back and walked away along the barren corner. Wang Shu chased after a few steps and stopped, and her mind was full of her last words.

Soon, this matter was understood.

One morning, in the early morning, a sharp cry in the harem reached everyone's heart. Xiao Yuanqi, who had just been groomed, was preparing to drive to the Taihe Hall, but he was disturbed by this call. Shen Sirong, who was still sleeping on the couch, was also uneasy, and then changed his clothes and got up hastily.

Wang Guangrong coaxed the emperor and the noble concubine's nurse to wait for the news first and went to find out. Wang Guangrong's face was not abnormal, but he was extremely annoyed. It's good that there are people who don't understand the rules in the palace. If something happens, it's okay. How can he explain to the emperor?

He lowered his head and scolded the screaming man, but as soon as he came out of the gate of Yongqing Palace, he was hit hard. Wang Guangrong looked up. The man who bumped into him saw him. The sweat on his forehead fell straight down and said with a chill in his mouth, "Eunuch Wang. I didn't mean to."

"Hum..." Wang Guangrong was full of displeasure. Naturally, he didn't let go when he met a person who bumped into him to extinguish his anger.

"Which palace are you from? So ignorant? Is this an ordinary boundary? Ah?" Wang Guangrong shouted and scolded with a gun and a stick. The internal supervisor seemed to be anxious, but he did not dare to contradict.

"Say it, what's the matter?" After scolding for some depression, Wang Guangrong asked with a serious look.

The internal supervisor carefully arched his hand and replied, "There is an accident in Guixiang Palace. That's the willow concubine."

First hearing the words Guixiang Palace, Wang Guangrong frowned, and when he heard the sentence "Liu Concubine", Wang Guangrong was dumbfounded. Regardless of the internal prison who was still waiting for words, he turned around and ran quickly to Shen Sirong's bedroom.

"Your Majesty, your Majesty..."

In the hall were Xiao Yuanqi, who was waiting impatiently, and Shen Sirong, who was comforting him. Wang Guangrong rushed in. Shen Sirong's heart thumped and vaguely felt that something had happened.

Xiao Yuanqi also rarely saw Wang Guangrong in such a panic. He asked, "What's the matter?"

Wang Guangrong's breath was a little calm and replied, "I returned to the emperor, the noble concubine, and the news came from Guixiang Palace, saying that she was lost."

"Is Liu Concubine gone?" Xiao Yuanqi patted the table and got up, while Shen Sirong fell down and sat down. Is this the abandoned car?

Xiao Yuanqi glanced at Shen Sirong, and her face was very ugly. He came forward to hold her hand, and the palm of the hand was cold sweating. Shen Sirong thought of Liu Ran, who was so shrewd to advance and retreat, and whispered, "It's only been three days."

"Don't think too much."

Xiao Yuanqi is always more used to the life and death in this palace than Shen Sirong. Hearing the news of Liu Ran's death, his heart is like a mirror, and naturally he does not have much sadness. Looking at her lost look and stiff body, Xiao Yuanqi couldn't bear it and hesitated to send someone to preach the decree for a day.

He did not rush to the Guixiang Palace, but sent out the palace people and stayed in the hall to accompany Shen Sirong.

"You just woke up. Take a rest." Xiao Yuanqi said softly and stroked Shen Sirong's hair.

She shook her head: "Your Majesty, I want to go to Guixiang Palace."

Shen Sirong thought that another human life surged up coldly, and his gold-rimmed tables looked so cold.

"No, you can't go at this moment." Xiao Yuanqi patted her hand and kissed her gently on the tip of her forehead: "If you go, I'm afraid there will be a sharp edge towards you."

Xiao Yuanqi's concerns did not come at random. Since Wang Shu could "check out" things in such a short time, this made Shen Sirong faceless.

"Your Majesty, Guixiang's concubine must go, at least to figure out how Liu Concubine carried this charge. And there is Wu Wanqing, and it's time to give her justice.

Seeing that Shen Sirong had made up his mind, Xiao Yuanqi no longer stopped him, but Xuanren prepared an honor guard and went to Guixiang Palace with her.
