It was the dead of night, most of the palace people rested, only the patrolling guards were walking around in the imperial city.

Gu Ning followed behind Xie Yan. She changed into the clothes of the imperial army and walked carefully in the corridor, feeling a little nervous.

Just now Xie Yan came forward to dispel the confusion of Yue Rong and others for her, but she knew that at this time Xie Yan must be suspicious.

Indeed, the eyeliners of Pei's family all over the palace didn't know the existence of the edict. She only came to the palace for a few days before she got the whereabouts of the edict, and even found it in the ruins. unusual.

Gu Ning lowered his eyes, not only apprehensive, but also panicked.

Xie Yan could see her silence.

"Don't worry." Xie Yan's tone was calm, and he gently rubbed Gu Ning's head, "Yue Rong and the others are stubborn, so they won't think too much."

"Aren't you worried?" Gu Ning suddenly raised his head, staring at Xie Yan persistently, "I know so many secrets, have you never doubted me?"

Hearing this, the corners of Xie Yan's lips curled up, revealing a faint smile: "Ning'er won't harm me, right?"

His low and gentle voice made Gu Ning's heart drop instantly.

"That's right." Gu Ning nodded slightly, and said arrogantly, "Even if everyone wants your life, I will not harm you."

Xie Yan, who has great luck, is her golden thigh, not to mention, she and Xie Yan are connected, how could she harm the other half she believes?

Xie Yan gently held Gu Ning's palm, and wrapped the small hand with the big hand, and the temperature of the man's body was transmitted to Gu Ning's body through the palm.

"Ning'er, I don't care how many secrets you have, I only care about one thing." Xie Yan's tone suddenly changed, "Your safety is more important than all these."

In Xie Yan's view, the late emperor's edict is just icing on the cake, even without this edict, he can still avenge his father, so what if he is regarded as a rebellious and unscrupulous minister?He never cared about these false names.

What he wants are two things, one is to avenge his father, and the other is to let Gu Ning stay by his side.

If there is something wrong with Gu Ning...

Xie Yan leaned down slightly, and whispered in Gu Ning's ear: "Ning'er, if you have any accidents, I will never live alone."

Gu Ning was surprised, the violent heartbeat resounded through the chest at this moment, the two of them were the only ones in the tunnel at the moment, in the silent and dark night, the two hearts were very close to each other.

……

All the way back to the side hall smoothly, seeing Xie Yan's figure disappearing in the night, Gu Ning then looked away and sighed at the empty bedroom.

"Master, did your plan fail?" Chunyu became worried when she saw it.

And Gu Ning shook his head: "The plan was very successful."

Not only did he find the last edict of the first emperor, but he also scared the shit out of the dog emperor, which is the real shit.

"If that's the case, why is the county magistrate still sighing?" Chunyu was suddenly puzzled, "Could it be that you and Mr. Xie are having a quarrel?"

"That's not true." Gu Ning said quietly, "I just feel a little sorry for him."

It can be said that Xie Yan treated her honestly, but she kept the secret of the system and did many suspicious things, but he didn't pursue her at all.

She felt ashamed.

Chunyu took a breath: "Could it be that you have a crush on someone else?"

"What are you thinking!" Gu Ning waved his hand angrily, "Turn off the lights, I'm going to rest."

"Yes."

Seeing Gu Ning lying on his back on the couch, Chunyu thoughtfully put down all the curtains and walked out the door cautiously.

Outside the door, Xie Yan, who was supposed to leave, was standing in the corridor, looking at her with pitch-black phoenix eyes.

Chunyu's heart trembled, and she quickly leaned over: "Thank you, sir."

"Is there anything unusual around the county lord these past few days? For example... besides you, who else is close to her?"

Chunyu was at a loss: "The county lord is doing everything as usual, except for the slaves, he is only getting closer to the Xinyue county lord."

Chu Shiling...

Xie Yan's eyes flickered slightly, and after a slight nod, he left.

Yue Rong waited under the tree early, and when he saw the banquet, he walked over beamingly: "Master, let's leave the palace as soon as possible! This will must be carefully read by Mr. Lu and Old General Pei!"

"The emperor is in a coma. As the imperial army, we should never leave the imperial city." Xie Yan's eyes flashed coldly.

Yue Rong did not doubt that he was there, and nodded with a smile: "The county lord is so powerful, he can even overhear this secret! The dog emperor probably thought it was a ghost seeking revenge!"

Although Xie Yan took everything on him before, Yue Rong, as one of Xie Yan's most trusted people, can naturally see the clue from Gu Ning's whereabouts.

All of this today is led by Gu Ning.

Before finding the will, Xie Yan obviously didn't know its existence, and only took this matter on himself to avoid people's eyes and ears.

Xie Yan frowned, and when Yue Rong saw it, he closed his mouth embarrassingly.

He has been by Xie Yan's side for many years, so he naturally knows that Xie Yan is unhappy at this time.

The master and servant were silent for a long time, and Xie Yan said: "There will be a big event in a few days, tell the people in the palace to protect the county master."

Yue Rongfei nodded quickly: "Naturally, the county master is our lucky star!"

Speaking of this, he happily recalled many things before: "That treasure was also found by the county lord by mistake. Today, thanks to the county lord, we can scare away the dog emperor and get the will. Now, we’re doing things a lot more smoothly.”

"From now on, you can't say such things in front of other people." Xie Yan's voice was cold, making Yue Rong shudder.

He glanced at Xie Yan cautiously, feeling a little uneasy: "Master, this is..."

Could it be that he doesn't want the magistrate to bear these credits?

Yue Rong wrote all his thoughts on his face, Xie Yan saw what was in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "The plan has not yet succeeded, even with the support of the old people around the father, but they have different thoughts, if they know Ning'er's Strange thing? It's hard to guarantee that you won't have other thoughts."

Although these old people are loyal, they are only loyal to him. Ning'er has a special status, so it is hard to guarantee that they will not use Ning'er as a tool that can be used.

Before he took power, he must not expose his beloved to others.

Yue Rong knew the seriousness of the matter, and nodded quickly: "This subordinate understands!"

……

The Second Prince's Mansion.

"Is the palace haunted?"

Chu Mengyang was astonished when he heard the rumor.

As Chu Mengyang's most trusted and capable staff member, Mr. Du nodded slowly: "It's absolutely true, the haunted place is still the ruins of the former East Palace."

Hearing this, Chu Mengyang didn't think about it, and a sentence came out of his mouth: "Could it be that the first prince came to seek revenge from the emperor?"

"It is said that there was a fog in the ruins last night, and many ghosts appeared, including a headless ghost and a pregnant female ghost." Mr. Zhuang said quietly.

After Chu Mengyang's brain turned rapidly, he opened his mouth in disbelief: "Could it be that the headless ghost is the first prince, and the pregnant female ghost is the first princess?"

"Yes or no, only the emperor knows." Mr. Zhuang said meaningfully, "It's just that the emperor has been in a coma and hasn't woken up yet."

Chu Mengyang shivered violently: "Father actually... cut off the head of the first prince!"

Even if he wanted to get rid of Chu Yunyi, he would never cut off his head after Chu Yunyi's death. After all, he was also the prince's son and grandson. Such an unseemly way to die...

Mr. Du stroked his beard and smiled: "Your Highness, I'm afraid you don't know the folk rumors? If you cut off a person's head and separate the head from the body, then this person will not be able to gather his soul."

"So...so that headless ghost is really the first prince?"

"My subordinates don't know if there are ghosts in this world." Mr. Du shook his head, "Maybe it's just a trick of others?"

Even so, Chu Mengyang still muttered in his heart.

If he killed Chu Yunyi, would he also be killed by ghosts?

Seeing that Chu Mengyang was absent-minded, Mr. Du coughed a few times to attract his attention: "General Xu is going to marry Miss Song soon. After marriage... Your Highness should act now."

"I know!" Chu Mengyang was half uneasy, half excited, "General Xu's old house is outside the city. On the day they got married, we took the opportunity of giving the dowry to bring in all the swords."

"During this period of time, Mr. Du has to be bothered. All the private soldiers we raise outside must enter Beijing on the day of the incident."

"To serve Your Highness, I should do my best." Mr. Du stood up and bowed deeply to Chu Mengyang, "It's just that Your Highness must not be kind to women! If you should uproot yourself, you must uproot it! Your Majesty back then Only by acting ruthlessly can you sit firmly on the throne!"

When Chu Mengyang heard the words, he slowly clenched his hands: "It's natural."

This night, there are still many people who can't sleep.

Song Shuqing was sitting in the boudoir, with a bright red wedding dress beside her.

There was a bleak smile on the corner of her lips, she didn't expect that she tried her best and ended up like this in the end!

At this moment, the window shook slightly, and a black figure suddenly appeared in her bedroom.

"Who are you!"

"Don't call!"

Seeing Song Shuqing panicked, Yue Ming quickly covered her mouth.

"This subordinate was sent by the county lord of Changning, and the county lord asked the subordinate to give this to you." Yue Ming said, and then stuffed a porcelain bottle into Song Shuqing's hand, "After taking this medicine, it can make people Falling into a dream, on the wedding day, Miss Song just needs to put this medicine in the wine and let General Xu take it, and you will be safe."

When Song Shuqing heard the words, she subconsciously clenched the porcelain bottle: "Why didn't she come?"

"The county master is in the imperial city, so he can't help himself, so he can only ask his subordinates to bring the medicine." Yue Ming said in a low voice, "The county master also said that I have wronged you to stay in Xu's mansion for a few days, and wait for her to leave the palace. , immediately send someone to send you to Jiangnan."

"Okay." Song Shuqing was in a daze for a while, holding the porcelain vase in her hand, and pinned her last hope on this porcelain vase.

"Will she really come to pick me up?"

"Since the county lord has agreed to you, he will definitely overcome all difficulties and send you away." Yue Ming's tone was calm and convincing, "The county lord has already planted a few eyeliners in Xu's residence. , and will take good care of you."

Song Shuqing nodded, and said with difficulty: "I believe her."

Apart from Gu Ning, she has no other way out.
