princess is fine

Inside Kunning Palace, Xiao Rongjin looked out the window at the darkened sky, holding the news that had just been sent from outside the palace.

Xi Chao she did not go to Jinzhou...

Zhi Hua came over to collect the remaining tea on the table, looked at Xiao Rongjin who was standing outside the window, and couldn't help calling: "Your Highness, it's windy by the window, let's go into the inner room."

Xiao Rongjin didn't answer, but turned around and looked at Zhihua who stood respectfully aside.

Zhihua was startled by the gaze, and hurriedly asked, "Your Highness, what's wrong?"

Xiao Rongjin stared at her face and said: "You went back to the palace last night, but did you see someone from Xuanzhou?" She slightly stretched out her hand, revealing the piece of paper in her hand.

Zhihua glanced at the slightly yellowed paper, nodded, "I see."

"Then why didn't you bring the news?" Xiao Rongjin's face was slightly cold, she put the note on the table: "You and Zhiqin, did you hide something from me?"

Although Zhihua already knew the whereabouts of Xi Chao at this time, her safety could not be fully guaranteed. Therefore, facing Xiao Rongjin's questioning at this moment, Zhihua did not dare to tell the whole story of what happened to Xi Chao.

Knowing that painting and talking are very straightforward on weekdays, Xiao Rongjin saw that she was hesitant today, and already had some guesses in her heart, but suddenly heard a knock on the door.

Zhi Hua breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly went to check the door, but saw an older maid standing outside the door, with her head slightly lowered, and after seeing Zhi Hua finished, she said in a low voice: "My master invites Her Royal Highness to come over. one trip."

Zhi Hua was a little puzzled, but saw the maid raised her head slightly, revealing a plain face.

The maids in the palace will be sent out when they reach a certain age, and those who can stay must have an extraordinary friendship with the master, and their status is also quite respected among the palace maids.

Therefore, this elderly maid, who knew Hua, was none other than the eldest maid next to the noble concubine of Changxin Palace, Xunqiu.

"Aunt Xunqiu?" Zhihua's surprised voice startled Xiao Rongjin who was in the room, she was slightly taken aback when she heard the name, and then said: "Zhihua, don't invite anyone in yet!"

Zhihua hurriedly invited Na Xunqiu in, closed the door again, and followed behind.

When Xun Qiu entered the room and saw Xiao Rongjin, he saluted slightly.

Xiao Rongjin frowned slightly, always felt that Xunqiu's behavior today was a bit weird, so he stopped greeting and asked directly: "Is there something wrong with the imperial concubine?"

Xun Qiu still lowered his head and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty would like to invite Dian to Changxin Palace."

"It's already late at night, I don't know what is going on with the imperial concubine..." Xiao Rongjin replied casually, but was interrupted by Xun Qiu: "Your Highness, you can just go."

As she spoke, she reached out and took out something.

That white jade hairpin, crystal clear, was held in a strange hand at the moment, and it looked a little fragile for no reason.

"What does this mean?" Xiao Rongjin turned cold and looked at Xunqiu.

Xun Qiu raised his eyes to look at Xiao Rongjin: "Since Your Highness recognizes this thing, it will be easy to handle. Whether to go or not depends on Your Highness's own wishes." After saying that, he bowed again and turned to leave.

When had Xiao Rongjin been threatened like this before, but that jade hairpin was enough to turn all her anger into worry.She looked at the back of Xun Qiu leaving and said coldly: "Go to Changxin Palace."

How could Zhihua dare to hide this, and hurriedly stepped forward to explain: "Your Highness, don't worry too much. A few days ago, Miss Chao'er had some accidents, but Ye Xing has already solved it..."

"Then where is she now?" Xiao Rongjin clenched her fists and looked at Zhihua. Her eyes, which could have been transformed into spring water for Xi Chao, are now as cold as ice for nine days: "Then tell me Gong, where is she now?"

Zhihua bit her lower lip, and finally shook her head with difficulty.

"Go home." Xiao Rongjin pushed open the door and looked at Zhihua: "I guess Zhiqin is also involved, you two go to receive the punishment yourself. It's good to ask Zhiqi to enter the palace tomorrow."

Seeing Xiao Rongjin like this, Zhihua quickly knelt down and said, "Your Highness, this time it's the servant girl's fault. It's just that the situation is urgent, so I hope His Highness asks the servant girl to accompany you." She kowtowed heavily, and continued: "If If something happens to His Highness, it will not be a pity for the servant girl to die!"

Xiao Rongjin looked at her figure kneeling on the ground, sighed, turned and went out the door without speaking.

Zhi Hua hurriedly got up and picked up the cloak in the house to catch up. His Highness is in a state of instability at this moment, and she wants to follow beside her... Besides, tonight is not a safe night at all.

Xiao Rongjin didn't say anything more about Zhihua's actions at the moment.It's just that when the two of them walked to the gate of Kunning Palace, they saw Nan Deming walking over from outside the palace wall: "His Royal Highness is in a hurry, where are you going?"

"Why is Director Nan here?" Xiao Rongjin was a little surprised, but quickly said: "I just remembered something, I must meet someone tonight."

Nan Deming shook his head: "Who can be as honorable as Princess Changle, to ask His Highness to bother you so much?"

Xiao Rongjin and Nan Deming looked at each other for a moment, and then said: "Director Nan, I must go today."

Seeing her attitude, Nan Deming sighed slightly: "Your Highness, do you know why the Holy Majesty asked you to stay in Kunning Palace?" There is a fear that there will be a bloody storm in the imperial city soon, no matter what the final result is. , he couldn't even cause Xiao Rongjin to have any accidents.

Xiao Rongjin smiled slightly: "My Royal Father's intentions, I know. I will definitely not mess with my Royal Father's overall situation. Director Nan may report back, and today's affairs are all my own decisions."

Director Nan wanted to say something else, Xiao Rongjin said again: "Director Nan should know that if I want to leave, you will definitely not be able to stop me."

"This point must be clear to my father." After Xiao Rongjin said this, Director Nan's face was a little embarrassed. He wanted to say something more, but someone had already tapped his acupuncture points. That black shadow was exactly today. Ye Chen who came to deliver the letter.

"Let's go." Xiao Rongjin whispered.

Changxin Palace.

Concubine Zhao looked at the jade hairpin in her hand, and smiled lowly: "Xiao Rongjin, Xiao Rongjin, I also said that you are a heartless person. Neither Zhou Yu back then nor Xue Ling now could catch your eyes. Today I messed up because of a little girl, should I say that God helped me?"

Xiao Rongjin looked at her somewhat crazy look at the moment, but the panic in her heart gradually calmed down. She looked at Concubine Zhao: "I am very surprised by the words of the concubine today."

Concubine Zhao's red lips curled slightly: "I'm afraid there will be more things that surprise you later."

"Where is she now?" Xiao Rongjin didn't want to talk nonsense with her anymore, and asked straightforwardly.

"Don't worry, as long as you are here, she will be fine." Concubine Zhao put the jade hairpin on the table casually, and said, "Can'er doesn't like unnecessary sacrifices, and as a mother, I naturally won't abuse her." Kill the innocent."

"Innocent?" Xiao Rongjin sneered: "It's hard for the imperial concubine to know the word innocent."

Concubine Zhao laughed a few times when she heard this: "Listen to this, does Changle know?"

"Come back from Xuanzhou, I have already suspected it." Xiao Rongjin sat opposite Concubine Zhao, her eyes were calm without any waves: "My mother's death back then, and my palace's poison back then, I thought it was Concubine Zhou alone. But that time, the spies who came back from Xuanzhou actually went back to Mr. Zhao's house, you think, should this be suspicious?"

Concubine Zhao sneered: "There are always one or two trash."

Xiao Rongjin looked at Concubine Zhao's appearance at this moment, with a trace of clarity in her eyes: "Poor Concubine Zhou is domineering, but in the end you treat her as a handy knife."

"Knife?" Concubine Zhao sneered, "How do you know that I am the only one who uses this knife?"

"I know." Xiao Rongjin said: "There are many people who are on the sidelines, but at least those people have a conscience, and they will not harm the whole leader for their own selfishness."

The Zhao family also made great military exploits back then, and held a pivotal position in Daliang, but after losing the battle with the Northern Wei Dynasty, they gradually withdrew from the army.Later, because of the affairs of the palace, he was displeased by the emperor, so he was suppressed by the Zhou family.

"Father didn't investigate the reason for the defeat back then, so why don't you assume that he has no doubts? Pushing the Zhou family to the cusp of the storm is nothing more than diverting the tide of disaster." When it came to Xuanzhou, if she hadn't secretly rescued him later If you leave Fu Xiuying, you won't know that Xu Xingliang is still related to the Zhao family.

Although the Zhao family was not the mastermind of these old events, they were like hands that have never been seen, secretly guiding these conspiracies several times.

"It turns out that you all know." Concubine Zhao's face was a little more relaxed: "I was just thinking about whether I would be too impulsive to act rashly tonight. Now it seems..." Concubine Zhao's complexion suddenly became dark: "Sure enough, strike first!"

A faint shout came from outside, Xiao Rongjin was startled, and had already walked to the door.

That voice came from Yugan Palace in the east.

"So that's it." Xiao Rongjin shook her head slightly, but did they really think that relying on the imperial guards, they could get the throne and the beam?

"Of course I won't be so stupid that I only want to rely on the Imperial Guard." Concubine Zhao's voice came faintly from behind: "This palace is tightly guarded, it seems that it is because of the Imperial Guard guarding, but in fact it is relying on those ordinary people. Invisible shadows."

"And these shadows, maybe it's more appropriate to call them Night Guards. The person who can mobilize Night Guards is standing in front of me now, isn't he?" Concubine Zhao looked up at Xiao Rongjin who was standing by the door: "If you fall down , what will happen to these night guards?"

Concubine Zhao looked at the two figures suddenly appearing behind Xiao Rongjin, and smiled slightly: "Is this the power of the night guard? It's just..." She reached out to pick up the jade hairpin on the table: "You can protect the person in front of you, What about outside the palace?"
