The Zhaode Palace was already in a mess.

The palace people tremblingly curled up in a corner, wishing that there would be a crack in the ground so that they could get in, lest the furious master and empress in the palace suddenly saw him and spread this resentment on him.

"What a bunch of slaves, dare to lie to me!"

Wan Zhen'er gasped for breath, everything that caught her eyes was swept to the ground, she wished to destroy the whole Zhaode Palace, she took all precautions, unexpectedly leaked out the variable Zhu Youtang, and now it's even worse After attaining the Tao and being established as the crown prince, Wan Zhen'er wanted to grit her silver teeth to pieces when she thought of how beautiful the thorn in her eyes was, and said secretly, "What a bitch! Ji Xi'er, what can you do if you become my palace? Even if your son becomes the prince, so what, I want to see, he has this blessing to be the prince, but he still has this fate to be able to sit firmly!"

"Come on, go to Ye Ting to find a few barbarian girls and send them to Concubine Ji Shu, and say that the gift I gave her to Concubine Ji has been in the Anle Hall for all these years, so that those old sisters from back then will be happy to accompany her. "It's just a barbarian whore, who dared to seduce the emperor behind her back, and even gave birth to such a wicked person, how could Wan Zhen'er make her feel more comfortable.

In Yongshou Palace, Ji Xi'er didn't have much joy on her face, and Fu'er couldn't help but persuade: "Why do you need to be so worried, now that all the hardships have come to an end, the days to come will all be better. Could it be because of The prince is raised in the empress dowager's palace, and the empress can't adapt for a while?"

"It's a blessing that Youtang can't wait for the empress dowager to be raised in the Renshou Palace. I can only be grateful, so how can I have other thoughts?" Ji Xi'er shook her head. After she came out, most of the boulder in her heart was truly let go, and with the Queen Mother taking care of her, her emperor's son must be much smoother in the future.Seeing Fu'er's worried appearance, Ji Xi'er opened her mouth, wanting to explain, but she didn't know what came to her mind, and she just sighed dejectedly, "If it wasn't for my son, I really don't want to be such a waste of money." Concubine Shu, it would be better if you were still in An Le Tang."

Looking at the majestic palace, the dazzling array of rewards, rich clothes and fine food, but it is not as peaceful as eating a simple meal.Inexplicably, he thought of Miss Wu who was still in the side hall, sighed again, took Fu'er's hand, and whispered: "In the future, you should be more taboo, don't mention Miss Wu again, but write it down." ?”

"But……"

"I'm a person, after all these years, you still don't know? This is also Wu Niangniang's wish. Don't make any mistakes. If you make your empress tired, I really can't atone for my sin even if I die a hundred times."

Seeing her serious expression and speaking so seriously, Fu'er quickly responded: "I know in my heart, I will definitely not cause trouble for Miss Wu. Don't think too much, everything will be fine."

"I wish." Ji Xi'er smiled wryly, and didn't say anything more.The apprehension and fear in my heart just got worse.

As for this anxiety, when she saw the only three remaining palace servants who had entered Yeting and worked in the inner treasury together, Ji Xier slumped on the embroidered stool, and did not come to her senses for a long time: "The rest What about people?"

Ji Xi'er opened her mouth with difficulty, her voice was as dry as a light knife scraping bamboo, with almost invisible tremors.

"Dead, all dead... I offended the imperial concubine and empress, and all of them died with the stick." When talking about their former companions, there was obvious fear on their faces, which also caused Ji Xier's heart to sink deep. If you put in an ice cellar, there will be no more warmth.

The past few days for Emperor Chenghua were really ups and downs, mixed with joys and sorrows, and the contradictions were very complicated.First, he found the emperor's son who had been hiding for six years, and he is also his only heir. A little more goodwill.

From time to time, I also sit in the Yongshou Palace and talk about Youtang's childhood, missing his father's childhood.Concubine Ji Shu is an intelligent person, and she is not flattering or flattering, nor self-pitying, which makes him even more satisfied.

This is joy, the joy of life.

But the beloved Concubine Wan Gui, because of his recognition of her son, shed tears every day and kept crying, which made him extremely distressed, but he was at a loss and didn't know how to comfort him.Youtang is his only remaining bloodline, the heir left to him by God's pity, how can he give up?But seeing his favorite woman so miserable, how could Emperor Chenghua not feel uncomfortable?I had no choice but to hug her every night and stay with her, hoping that she could smile again.

When he heard the news of the sudden death of Concubine Ji Shu in Yongshou Palace, Emperor Chenghua could only lament, waved his hand, called Huai En, and told him to take care of the funeral affairs, and personally drafted the imperial edict. After her death, she will be buried in a grand manner, and I only hope that she can be buried in peace.

At this moment, Fu'er knows why Xi'er has been depressed and always has a lot of thoughts.It also made her feel fearful and uneasy, afraid that when she woke up, she would see Concubine Wan Gui send someone to take her life.But within three to five days, the whole person lost weight, and finally couldn't bear it anymore, and ran back to the cold palace in the dark.

"Miss Wu, Xi... Xi'er didn't do it voluntarily, she was forced, forced..."

Seeing Fu'er, who has always been daring, curled up tremblingly like a frightened bird, Namin couldn't express the feeling in her heart. She didn't expect Xi'er to go in such a hurry, so fast, people were caught off guard.Silent for a long time, sighed softly: "For the current plan, you still have two options, one is to find a way to go back to An Le Tang to do business, and Wan Guifei will not mobilize all the teachers for you, and the other is to ask the Queen Mother, Going to Renshou Palace on business, based on your friendship with Xi'er, the Empress Dowager must agree."

"Then... I'd better go back to An Le Tang." Fu'er was already worried, and only hoped that the farther away the better.

"It's good to come back, if there's something to do, it's good to have someone to take care of you." Na Min hesitated for a while, and couldn't help asking, "Maybe you can contact Zhang Min? If... tell him to go to Renshou Palace more, The crown prince is still young, so he always needs to find some useful companions."

When Fu'er brought the message to Zhang Min, Zhang Min was stunned for more than half a cup of tea, his heart was turbulent, and he couldn't help but look back at the inner room. There was a gold letter under the pillow towel, which he had prepared for himself. Concubine Ji Shu died suddenly, and he was terrified all day long, thinking that he would have such a day in the end, instead of being dealt with by Concubine Wan Gui, it would be better to end it on his own, and leave a clean ending for himself.

But she didn't expect that Wu Niangniang was thinking of herself as a rootless person, and figured out another way out for herself. She couldn't help but knelt down towards the west-facing Leng Palace, kowtowed heavily, and headed for Renshou Palace.

In Renshou Palace, the Empress Dowager Zhou also had a severe headache: "Did the prince sleep well last night?"

"Yesterday, as soon as the hour of Xu passed, the villain served the prince with a decoction to help sleep, and went to rest, but... the prince seemed to be having a nightmare, and he didn't sleep well. He woke up six times in one night yesterday."

The Empress Dowager Zhou frowned and sighed: "Still calling 'mother'?"

The little eunuch lowered his head even lower: "At first it was called like this, but later, the villain listened carefully, as if calling 'Niang Niang'."

Empress Dowager Zhou's eyes flickered slightly. She had seen Concubine Ji Shu, and she clearly remembered that the crown prince always called his mother. Who could this empress be?Confused, he waved his hand to tell the little eunuch to step back, and then asked the nurse who was serving in front of him: "When does the prince finish school today?"

"Looking at the sky, it should be on the way back. Will the Queen Mother send someone to remind me?"

The Empress Dowager Zhou shook her head, planning to ask Youtang when she came back, but she heard a report from a palace official outside the palace, saying that it was Zhang Min, the gate supervisor, who was waiting outside the palace, and felt even more strange that Zhang Min was the emperor The one serving in front of me is quite useful. Could it be that the emperor has something to do?

"Announce him in."

Zhang Min bowed his waist respectfully and entered the hall, after paying homage, he didn't dare to get up, thinking about his words, as soon as he heard this suggestion, he grasped at straws, causing him to lose his usual composure and vigilance, and waited in a trance. Come to think of it, it is already outside Renshou Palace.At this moment, I don't know how to speak.

He was hesitating, but heard another report from outside the palace, but Zhang Min was shocked when the prince came back. Didn't Niang Niang also mention it to the prince?

"Grandson pays respects to the emperor's grandmother."

The Empress Dowager Zhou hurriedly called him to the front, and asked someone to serve his favorite shortbread and snacks. Youtang snuggled up to the Empress Dowager Zhou obediently, and then pointed to Zhang Min in the palace and asked, "Imperial Grandmother, is he..."

Zhang Min hurriedly said: "Villain Zhang Min sees His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"Zhang Min? Are you Zhang Min?" Youtang put down the pastry in his hand, looked at him, and murmured softly, "I've heard of you." He died when he was still in his infancy, and he looked at Zhang Min with a little more gratitude, and turned back to ask the Queen Mother, "Did he make a mistake?"

How could the Empress Dowager Zhou fail to see his thoughts? She had also heard about Zhang Min's deeds in the past, and she was satisfied when she saw her grandson being so gracious and righteous. , the Ai family will not go against the prince's wishes. Zhang Min, are you willing to serve the prince? For the emperor, the Ai family will tell you, you don't need to worry about it."

Zhang Min hastily knelt down again: "The villain should be utterly heartbroken, and serve the prince with all his heart."

Only Youtang was a little ignorant, and looked at Zhang Min with a sense of understanding, then at the Queen Mother Zhou, and then knelt down: "My grandson thanked the imperial grandmother for her kindness."

Leaving the Empress Dowager Zhou's living room, Youtang led Zhang Min back to her own room, and as soon as she entered the room, she asked anxiously: "But the empress asked you to serve me?"

Zhang Min lowered her head slightly, and replied respectfully: "It's indeed Wu Niangniang who sent Miss Fu'er to find a villain." But in his heart, he secretly sighed at the young master's tact and intelligence.

"Your Majesty, it's really your Majesty..." Youtang's small face suddenly became bright, and Zhang Min felt even more sour when he saw it, and couldn't help persuading him: "His Royal Highness, please take care of yourself, as long as your Highness is well, Empress Wu will also feel at ease."

Xiaoyoutang nodded vigorously: "I won't disappoint my mother." Suddenly, she drooped her face again, and asked cautiously, "Can I go to see my mother? Let's go quietly, okay? "

"My little master, I can't go anywhere right now. If someone else finds out, they will punish Miss Wu." Zhang Min broke into a cold sweat from his fright, and kept talking about the dangers here, trying to dispel it. Zhu Youtang's idea.Zhu Youtang probably also knew that he was too reluctant, so he just said: "Then I won't go."

Zhang Min heaved a sigh of relief: "Your Highness is wise." He praised a few words carefully, seeing that he was still a bit sleepy, Zhang Min was also extremely powerless, but if he really went to find Wu Niangniang, he was absolutely desperate Those who didn't dare, had to ask cautiously, "It's getting late, Your Highness should have dinner." Seeing his low reply, he quickly bowed and left the room, before he could get dinner, he was sent by the Queen Mother People passed it back.

"Wu?" The Empress Dowager Zhou was stunned for a moment, the abolished Empress Wu?Unconsciously, he thought of the girl who was educated and reasonable but was unjustly deposed, and asked thoughtfully, "Is she also the empress that the crown prince talked about?"
