This is the fifth time Shen Zhi has sneaked out of the main hall at night.

Du Qinning opened the way for her not far in front of her, and Shen Zhi followed her all the way from Neifang to the gate of Yiqiu Palace, where he climbed over the palace wall, which was a little less than two feet high, and entered Taiji Palace. palace.

There are fewer guards patrolling here than elsewhere, and they often pass by here when they go to the prince's school on weekdays, so it is much easier to be a thief.

Leaving the East Palace, it is forbidden for the two of them to be here, so even though they have already experienced the first four times, the two of them are still cautious in their actions and dare not neglect at all.

Especially Du Qinning, as Shen Zhi's only trusted close person, she must not only ensure that she will not be discovered by guards who may pass by, but also pay attention to Shen Zhi's movements at all times, so as not to lose her on the way, or Was found to go.

Her Wu Gen is smarter than Shen Zhi, and she has fewer things to be busy with than Shen Zhi, so although the two are learning together, she has a deeper knowledge of martial arts and protects Shen Zhi. Knowing is also her responsibility.

The two walked close to the palace wall, keeping themselves in the dark as much as possible, hiding and hiding for more than a quarter of an hour, and finally arrived at the Penglai Palace smoothly.

This is the residence of the noble concubine, except for the emperor and the palace people who serve the noble concubine, ordinary people are not allowed to enter easily.

It was late at night, the palace people had all rested, and needles could be heard all around, but there was still a candle burning in the main hall.

In this huge palace, the light from a small oil lamp seemed to be negligible, but for Shen Zhi, that little spark that was barely noticeable instantly rekindled her hope that was almost extinguished.

Half a month ago, there was an urgent report from the Guangyang border. Xianbei, who had always been on good terms with Guo, sent a letter of war to Guo without warning after the national funeral, and even threatened to destroy the capital of Guo within six months.

Although the Guo State was founded in less than [-] years, after two dynasties, the emperors were shrewd and concerned about the world, and it can be regarded as peace and tranquility for more than [-] years.

There has been no battle for many years, even though the army is well-trained on weekdays, as the king of a country, Shen Tianhe still has some scruples.After thinking about it, in order to ensure nothing goes wrong and minimize the loss, he finally rejected the advice of the ministers and went to the imperial conquest.

After all, before he ascended the throne, he was already a great general who made the generals of neighboring countries and the three armies fearful.Condescending to go forward, it is already better than boosting morale.

Before Shen Tianhe left, Shen Zhi, as the only heir to the emperor, would stay in the imperial city to oversee the country, and all civil and military officials would listen to him, with the imperial concubine Liu as his assistant.

Originally concubines should not be involved in politics, let alone assist the crown prince on their own, but the emperor's excessive love for the concubine is seen by everyone on weekdays, and Shen Tianhe's attitude is firm, so even if the ministers are concerned about the real power in the hands of the concubine I know what's going on here, and no one really stands up to object.

As the crown prince, Shen Zhi has disliked the imperial concubine since she was a child. After learning of the holy will, she was already displeased with this matter, but what she didn't expect was that the imperial concubine couldn't bear it after Shen Tianhe had left for only three days. The rumor that Lonely raised a lover in the palace spread to everyone in the palace.

Shen Tianhe was out fighting on the battlefield, but the woman he loved the most was spending time with others in the palace.Shen Zhi didn't want to tell him that it distracted him, and even if Shen Tianhe knew about it, he might not believe it.

She thought about finding out the truth secretly.If it is true, she will find opportunities and evidence to reveal her true face, and she will have to believe it when Shen Tianhe returns triumphantly.

Looking at the main hall, Shen Zhi thought, this lamp must have been left by the imperial concubine for her lover.Today, she only needs to guard the gate of the hall to know who the lover is.At that time, if she seeks some more evidence, the imperial concubine will deny it even if she wants to.

Thinking in this way, Shen Zhi looked around again, and after confirming that there was no one around, he made a silence gesture to Du Qinning.

Du Qinning nodded in response, and she pointed to Du Qinning and the half-person-wide palace wall below her one after another, indicating that Du Qinning was waiting for her here, and then she jumped and landed lightly on the inside.

The goal of the two of them walking together is too big, and it is better for her to go alone.Du Qinning stayed here, and if Shen knew that there was an accident, she would be able to cope with it outside.

There is a peach tree in front of the Penglai Palace, which was planted by the noble concubine who specially sent someone to find good seedlings from Shuzhou when she first entered the palace.At this time, it is February, and the spring is full of spring, and the peach blossoms seem to have some signs of sprouting.In more than a month and a half, they will probably all be competing for beauty.

Shen Zhi hid behind the peach tree for a while, carefully recalled the layout he saw on the palace wall just now and a few days ago, and then jumped to the side entrance of the main hall in three steps at a time.

A few days ago, she saw that most of the maids serving the imperial concubine came out of this place, and the light in the palace also came from this place, so she guessed that the imperial concubine must live near here.

Finding a nearby column to hide behind, Shen Zhi changed into a suitable posture, and secretly watched the situation at the door without moving.

The night in March was still a bit chilly, with the breeze blowing by, and the sound of "chirp chirp chirp chirp" from unknown birds could be heard from time to time.No matter how strong Shen Zhi's self-control is, she will inevitably feel a little tired after standing there for half an hour.

But until now, even Shen Zhi's legs were a little numb, and the lover she was looking forward to had still not arrived.

Shen Zhi roughly calculated the time, if she guessed correctly, it should be close to the end of Haishi now.

I can't wait for that person again today.But it's still bright inside, and it never happened in the past, so why didn't he come?Or... the words passed by others are indeed false, the so-called lover does not exist at all, and she misunderstood the imperial concubine?

Thinking of this, Shen Zhi's eyes darkened instantly.

Sighing a long sigh, just as she was about to make some smaller movements to relax her legs, the candlelight in the temple flickered for a moment, and then went out.

Why did it go out?

Is it because the imperial concubine didn't wait for that person, or that person has already entered the palace from another place?

After silently snapping his fingers, Shen Zhi pursed his lips, resisting the numbness in his legs, and tiptoed to the edge of the palace door, leaning sideways and pressing his ear up, hoping that there would be a sound coming from inside. Some worthwhile moves.

But not long after she did this, there was a sudden breeze, which made the door squeak.

Although he knew it was because of the wind, Shen Zhi couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

After all, if she was really found out, if word got out that the prince broke into the concubine's bedroom at night, her reputation would be ruined.

But if she misses this opportunity, she doesn't know when she will be able to seize the opportunity of the noble concubine, so that she can avenge her mother's blood in the future.So it was a last resort to take such an adventure.

Fortunately, after that gust of wind passed, there was no other movement around.

But before Shen Zhi could breathe a sigh of relief, the door in front of her opened unexpectedly.At that moment, Shen Zhi felt like he was in a daze, as if he had lost even the ability to think and react.

Shen Zhi didn't see who the person was, but only knew that the person was dressed in plain white, and felt that a slender and strong hand grasped his wrist, and then he was pulled into the hall.

By the time she realized it, the door had been closed, and she had been pressed against the door by that person.

A burst of peach blossom fragrance rushed into Shen Zhi's nose, and she couldn't help but hold her breath, clasping the door tightly with her hands, and when her vision became a little clearer, she realized that the person lying on top of her was the imperial concubine Liu Shuyan.

Liu Shuyan was taller than Shen Zhi, she leaned slightly, staring straight at Shen Zhi with those captivating red phoenix eyes.

Her aquiline nose was also very beautiful, and her red lips, which could not conceal the beauty in the darkness, were slightly raised, which made Shen Zhi's throat twitch.

At this time, Shen Zhi's nervousness was hard to express in words, the sweat in her palms slightly moistened the wooden door, and her legs, together with Jiu Li just now, had already started to tremble slightly.

Fortunately, she was wearing a mask, so Liu Shuyan couldn't see her face clearly, so it was less likely that she could see that she was at a loss.

Shen Zhi wasn't sure if Liu Shuyan recognized her, her mind was spinning rapidly, she guessed the most likely situations, and silently waited for this smiling imperial concubine to say such a thing first. intention.

If she really recognized her, Shen Zhi wouldn't mind being forced to pretend to be crazy.The power is in Liu Shuyan's hands, and if she doesn't pretend to be stupid, she is the biggest threat to Liu Shuyan.Since she has already pretended to be stupid, she doesn't mind being more completely stupid.

Liu Shuyan and Shen Zhi looked at each other and snapped their fingers. Finally, she was the one who broke the silence first: "I have agreed with you to come every five days at Haishi. Why are you here now tonight?" Knowing that there was a little on his body, he lowered his head and sniffed carefully.

It seems that she regards herself as her lover.

While Shen Zhi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, the anger in his heart grew even worse.

Now, just a few days after her father left, she couldn't bear to look for a lover by herself.At that time, in order to get her father, she did some shady things, and it was not impossible.

As soon as the queen mother left, she replaced the queen mother and became the only favorite of the harem.This matter must have nothing to do with her.

Thinking of Wei Qian'er, the queen mother who loves her the most, Shen Zhi's eyes couldn't help showing a bit of uncontrollable sharpness.

"Xiao Lang Jun, don't say a word like the previous two times. I know you are not dumb." Seeing that Shen Zhi didn't speak, Liu Shuyan put his hands on her neck again, and put his head on her shoulders , whispering next to her ear, "If Xiao Lang-jun continues to behave like this, I will think that you just want to make some upheavals with me, instead of liking me sincerely."

As he said that, Liu Shuyan's tone became more and more aggrieved: "But this palace coincides with the arrival of sunflower water today, so I'm afraid I won't be able to have some romantic affairs with Mr. Xiaolang. Mr. Xiaolang... How about just chatting with me for a while?"
