one step closer to the end

Zhao Guanren frowned and said: "But I can tell you with certainty that this sorcery comes from the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and the sorcerer must be an onmyoji, so you have to investigate both inside and outside the palace. You can't leak a word about the Qi Refining Pavilion. Pretend you don't know anything!"

"Damn it!"

Emperor Shun Yao slammed his fist on the wall, and said angrily, "It's the Heavenly Kingdom of Peace again, I must send troops to let them destroy the country!"

"Godfather! Your harem needs to be rectified..."

Zhao Guanren shook his head and said: "The maids and eunuchs are in a mess. They are clear about how many times you went to the hut today. I checked the case and there were seven or eight people watching me in the dark. It's not that my son ran fast, but the queen chopped off his head. La!"

"Hey~ It's hard to guard against house thieves by day and night..."

Emperor Shun Yao sighed and drooped his head, and he no longer put on an imperial airs, but Zhao Guanren whispered a few words in his ear, and he was stunned for a moment and said: "It's a good idea, but isn't this taking off your pants and farting? Check it out directly." The Queen will have it!"

"What if it's not the queen..."

Zhao Guanren said in a low voice: "Do you know how the little eunuch died? Jin Bao wanted to catch Concubine Bai Shu, but disappeared without a sound!"

"Concubine Bai Shu? Her prince is still in his infancy, what's the use of murdering me..."

Emperor Shun Yao blinked in confusion, and Zhao Guanren said: "If you don't understand, you can't be careless. For your godfather's safety, please hold back your breath for a while. You send me a group of reliable female field guards, and my son will definitely give me a hand." Check it out and find out!"

"Okay, okay! I'll call someone over for you right away..."

Emperor Shun Yao opened the door and said: "You stay in the palace tonight, don't leave, help me to see if there are any female ghosts, and then go to the harem to pick a group of beauties to accompany you, don't be polite to your godfather , anyway, the godfather can't run out, and the combination of work and rest can get the errands done well!"

"no!"

Zhao Guanren said dumbfoundedly: "How can I, a big man, live in the harem? How can I live if word gets out?"

"I didn't let you live in the harem, and I wouldn't dare to live in the harem..."

Emperor Shunyao went out and said: "At night, you take your guards around, and if you don't find them, come to the palace to protect me. We father and son are of the same heart, and their benefits cut gold. I'm going to change the blood of the capital, so as not to let the prince That little bastard took advantage of the loophole, hum~"

At this time, Zhao Guanren saw the real Emperor Shunyao, who had the same sex with his prince, and had no bottom line in order to win people over. The oath was probably not a big deal for him, but seeing how he was in a hurry, Zhao Guanren was sincere. Sad for their family.

Chapter 0485

"Tan Qianhu! What happened in the palace? Why hasn't our husband come back..."

Bian Xianglan and other women walked out of the main room of the inner house one after another, and it was almost evening at this time, only to see Tan Qingning running in wearing the official uniform of white guards, panting and anxious.

"A major event has happened! All nine gates are under martial law, only entering and not exiting..."

Tan Qingning held Bian Xianglan's hand, and said solemnly: "The crown prince and Prince Duan were brought back to the palace by the forbidden army, and the generals who had ties to them were also deprived of military power. You must tell me something!"

"Oh, we don't know..."

Bian Xianglan said anxiously: "My lord was called to go to court early in the morning, and people kept running to inquire after him, saying that the lord was locked up shortly after he entered the palace. Even the crown prince and Prince Duan came here, and there were rumors that the lord assassinated the emperor. No nonsense!"

"Hey hey hey! The imperial decree has arrived, get ready to receive it..."

Song Chizhu suddenly rushed in, making the group of women stunned, but Song Chizhu waved again and said, "Get ready for the incense burner, all the eunuchs and maids are here, and there is a carriage behind them. It's time to dispatch the guards!"

"Oh my god! That's great, but I'm so worried..."

Bian Xianglan almost burst into tears of joy, and hurriedly asked her sisters to enter the house to get money and incense burners, but the people who were not ready to pass the decree arrived, and they actually brought a lot of boxes, and all the people from the Epidemic Diseases Department gathered and surrounded the inner courtyard. It's leaking.

"May I ask who is Princess Bian of the county..."

A chief eunuch came in obsequiously, Bian Xianglan froze for a moment, then hurriedly waved her hands and said: "I am the Bian family, but I am no longer the princess of the county. You are mistaken!"

"That's right! Your Majesty, you are the princess of the county, please kneel down and receive the order..."

The chief eunuch unfolded the imperial decree with a smile, puffed up his chest, and read aloud: "Fengtian Chengyun Emperor, pardon me! Promote my adopted son Zhao Yunxuan as the king of Yongshi County, and confer the titles of his concubine Bian and Xie as fourth-rank noble ladies. Two sets of red brocade auspicious lion court clothes, one thousand taels of gold, ten boxes of pearls, and one hundred pieces of brocade..."

"..."

Everyone in the Zhao family was stunned, not only Bian Xianglan opened her mouth so hard that she could swallow a fist, but Tan Qingning also had a look of disbelief, the black crowd outside the courtyard almost went to heaven, and they gasped in unison.

"Oh my God!"

Song Chizhu turned his head in disbelief, and stammered in a low voice: "Ben, I heard you right, why did Mr. Zhao go to the palace for a long time, and suddenly became a prince? I, I have never heard of this It's a rule, can someone with a foreign surname still be a prince?"

"Kin this!"

The chief eunuch put away the imperial decree with a smile, helped up the stunned Bian Xianglan with his own hands, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty! Mr. Zhao is already the godson of the emperor, so you are naturally the princess of the county. Of course! The official title can only be called your second son." Ma'am, but in private, you are the princess!"

"Godson? The emperor has become our master's godfather..."

Bian Xianglan was stupefied and shocked, but the eunuch actually handed over a large stack of banknotes, and said with a smile: "This is a wish from our supervisor of ceremonies, the empress must accept it, please inform the prince of the county, We are the eunuchs of the Chief of Ceremonies, the Chief of Ceremonies!"

"This is the happy money collected by our Shang Baojian, Shang Baojian..."

"We are from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, everyone is out..."

"Shengong Supervisor, we are Jingujian..."

The eunuchs and maids came up to give presents in turn. Song Chizhu squatted on the ground with his mouth open, like a big toad that was about to suffocate. It was a long time since he met today. Not only did he see the prince with a different surname, but also the eunuch and maid Line up to send money.

"Your Majesty! We belong to the Clan Mansion, and this is the gold medal for exempting you two..."

An eunuch obsequiously handed over two gold medals, with a thick stack of silver bills underneath, and said with a smile: "From now on, you two will be relatives of the emperor, and when you two enter the palace, follow us to register It's over, our clan mansion is far away from the harem, so it's innocent!"

"Are we going to the palace too?"

Bian Xianglan and Xie Yingying were all frightened, and the chief eunuch nodded and said: "That's right! Please change into the court clothes, and bring the two concubines to accompany you into the palace. Just wear the gorgeous clothes at the bottom of the box. Eating hot pot in the palace, waiting for the two empresses!"

"Eat hot pot in the palace? Mandarin duck..."

Song Chizhu felt that he was about to die, and what he heard was all hallucinations, but Tan Qingning hurriedly asked: "Father-in-law, I am Tan Qingning from Baiyiwei, and I have worked with Mr. Zhao in Lantai, can you tell me what happened? What's the matter?"

"Oh, you are Mr. Tan, and I happen to have your warrant..."

The chief eunuch took out a document and handed it to her, and whispered: "Please immediately select twenty reliable and loyal female court guards with no bad deeds, either in black or white, there are people waiting inside the Wuyang Gate, remember! Don't mention this to anyone, go!"

"Female field guard? This is after investigation..."

Tan Qingning realized something, but the other party hurriedly said: "Shh~ you are a white guard, you know how to keep it secret, don't ask too many questions outside, and our family doesn't dare to talk too much, anyway, our supervisor is innocent, Mr. Wanwang Do it impartially!"

"The next official understands, and will issue a password..."

Tan Qingning nodded earnestly, winked at Bian Xianglan and left immediately, while the chief eunuch raised his voice deliberately and said: "Madam! Nothing happened in the palace, it's just some scumbags who don't want to open their eyes and eat nothing. The county prince is investigating. !"

"Thank you, father-in-law! Then let's go into the house and change clothes..."

Bian Xianglan couldn't tell me I believe you, so she walked into the house in a dizzy state. Several court ladies followed in with brocade boxes, and the eunuchs also moved the imperial gifts into the main room. He was still polite, and kept talking about how innocent he was.

"Aunt Luo! Liuliu! Change into your clothes and enter the palace with us..."

Bian Xianglan stood in the bedroom with her arms wide open, and the court lady kindly helped them change into court clothes, while Yuniang took the servants out to distribute candy and wedding money, and even sent someone to the Bian Xie family's shop in the capital to announce the good news. Let the whole Lantai County know that Zhao Guanren has become the prince.

"Master Song! Why are you still sitting on the ground..."

Yuniang looked at Song Chizhu wonderingly, only to see Song Chizhu sitting on the ground with a sad face, and said in a sad voice: "Yuniang! Do you think I am stunned? I actually heard that your master has become a prince." , slap me quickly, let me wake up!"

"Crack~"

Yu Niang gave him a slap without hesitation, and the smoked Song Chizhu screamed: "Ah! You really smoke, then tell me how your master did it, I'm going crazy!"

……

"Wow~ The palace is so big, Aunt Luo! Have you ever been in the palace..."

The four daughters of the Zhao family walked nervously in the urn city. The eunuchs and maids walked with their heads down. There were red inner walls tens of meters high on both sides. People can't stop being in awe.

"Liu Liu! Don't look around, you have to follow the rules when you enter the palace..."

Luo Tan was as nervous as a little quail. It was also the first time for her to enter the deep palace, but after passing through two palace doors, Bian Yulei suddenly pointed to a door and shouted: "Look! This is our master." The word, Mr. Zhao came here for a visit!"

"What?"

Luo Tan and the other women's eyes popped out, and they saw Zhao Guanren's travel commemoration, but Bian Yulei asked happily again: "Sister palace lady! Can you leave words on the palace gate? The emperor won't scold you?"

"Your Majesty! Please don't call me sister, I'm a slave..."

The maid turned her head in fear and said: "No one has ever carved words on the palace gate. Prince Yongshi is the first one, and I'm afraid he will be the last one. The courage of the prince of the county is not ordinary people!"

"That is! He is my husband..."

Bian Yulei laughed arrogantly, and walked for a long time before arriving near the nave, just as Tan Qingning came in with twenty female guards, ten in white and ten in black, but the All weapons were seized.

"You can't speak loudly in front of you. If people hear you, you have to slap your mouth..."

After a court lady gave a reminder, the two groups quickly joined together, leaving only four people to continue leading the way, but Tan Qingning and the others were also very nervous, and no one knew what happened. But to beheaded.

"The harem?"

A female field guard let out a low cry, Tan Qingning kicked her hastily, only to see two groups of male and female guards guarding in front of the harem gate, and the female guards searched them one by one before letting them go. He didn't even dare to take a breath.

"Why is there no one there, it's so deserted..."

Second Miss Xie couldn't help but look around, the inner harem was originally a narrow road with high walls, no one could be seen and it was extremely quiet, both oppressive and eerie. Look left and right.

"Bang~"

Bian Yulei suddenly bumped into the back of a palace lady, who suddenly stopped and knelt down, and when they looked up, they found a beautiful woman in palace costume appeared at the gate of the other courtyard ahead, accompanied by a chief eunuch, she must be a high-ranking woman. level of concubines.

"Kneel down quickly! Concubine Wu Xian..."

The little maid reminded her in a low voice, and all the girls hurriedly knelt down. The rule in the harem is that you are not allowed to speak while saluting, but Concubine Wu Xian stepped forward and asked in surprise: "Huh? Why even the guards of the capital are here, you guys What kind of errand did you do?"

"Returning to the words of the imperial concubine..."

Tan Qingning lay down on the ground and said cautiously: "I don't know! I just entered the palace and haven't seen the Shangguan yet, the Holy Majesty only asked me to enter the palace to wait for orders!"

"Well! Then you must do your best and handle it impartially. Don't tolerate and cover up. Do you hear..."

Concubine Wu Xian came over full of aura, looked down at them dignifiedly, and then waved for people to come over for a reward. A group of women all knelt down to receive the gift in trepidation. Many of them didn't even see what she looked like. Very rude thing to do.

"Shocking thunder! This sky-reaching cultivation base is falling into the sky, Zijin Hammer, Zidian! This Xuanzhen Flame Nine Heavens Hanging Sword is shocking, use the nunchaku quickly, hehehe..."

suddenly!

A rough sound of shouting wheat suddenly sounded, as if a tattered bag suddenly broke into the college entrance examination room, the complexions of the female family members of the Zhao family changed suddenly, and the voice behind it was so familiar.

"Oops!"

Tan Qingning said with a face full of horror: "Why did he come here in the harem? He is too courageous. Trespassing in the harem is a capital offense!"

Chapter 0486 Eating Hot Pot in the Queen's Palace

"Use the nunchaku quickly, hehehe, use the nunchaku quickly, the wind will flourish..."

In the quiet palace, it was like breaking into a tattered house. The faces of the female family members of the Zhao family turned pale with fright. Those who had never been in the palace knew how strict the rules were. They were already imagining that Zhao Guanren would be dragged down and held in the Caishikou beheaded for public display.

"Oh, Mr. Zhao! You've come..."

suddenly!

The high-end Concubine Wu Xian changed her face in an instant, stepped forward delicately, waved and shouted: "I made some dumplings by myself, Mr. Zhao, please take them away and taste them. The dumpling stuffing is specially prepared for you. You must like it. Your lord has worked hard to inspect it." La!"

"..."

The girls couldn't believe their ears, and looked back secretly in fear. Sure enough, Zhao Guanren came over wielding a small copper hammer, and a group of female guards followed behind him, holding many gift boxes in their hands, as if he had just arrived. After receiving a lot of gifts, I came back.

"What kind of dumplings are you eating, come here for me..."

Zhao Guanren actually pushed Concubine Wu Xian away with a single push, and the chief eunuch knelt on the ground, his old and soft face instantly turned pale.

Zhao Guanren pointed at him with a copper hammer and yelled: "You are the leader of Shangshan Supervisor, you really know how to hide, I am looking for you everywhere!"

"No, no, no! My lord, this old slave is the eunuch with the handprint of the gangster, you are mistaken..."

The old eunuch lay on the ground trembling with fear, Zhao Guanren stepped forward and grabbed him by the back collar, whispering something to him.

The old eunuch nodded repeatedly as if he had received an amnesty: "I know, I know! This old slave knows, thank you for your noble hand!"

"Concubine Wu Xian! I'm sorry, I admitted the wrong person..."

Zhao Guanren walked back to Concubine Wu Xian again, mockingly said: "You soaked your brain in the bath, you actually led the eunuch in charge of the bathhouse into the house, I think you, a concubine, will soon become a concubine. The door of the cold palace has been opened for you!"

"My lord! We have dry goods, really dry goods..."

Concubine Wu Xian's eyes were bloodshot in an instant, and she handed over the food box with a hideous face. Zhao Guanren took the heavy food box and handed it to the female guard, saying: "Concubine Wu Xian is deeply favored by the emperor, don't disturb her to rest, good grade The guards will do!"

"Yes!"

A female guard came forward with red paint, and drew a red "good" character in front of Concubine Wu Xian's courtyard. Concubine Wu Xian immediately breathed a sigh of relief, bowed her legs happily, and hurried back to the house with the maid. The old eunuch also ran away in a hurry.

"Why are you still kneeling, get up..."

Zhao Guanren looked at his family members jokingly. The women all seemed to see gods. Looking around, they were sure it was the emperor's harem, otherwise they would have thought they were in Zhao Guanren's house.

"Tan Qingning!"
