September is full of flowers

So the three of them almost stayed up all night in Zangshu Pavilion.The next morning came, and the sound of birdsong outside the window was transmitted to the house.Shen Man rubbed her eyes and looked at the surrounding decorations, and it took a while to come back to her senses. She had already come out of the Library Pavilion of Tianwen Gate and returned to the Tai Pavilion.

Last night, she found the records of Concubine Li, and learned of a cruel secret history of the palace—the concubine Li, who was once beautiful and in full bloom, was only [-] years old when she was only sixteen years old, because she confused the harem. And was ordered to die by the emperor.And, it was buried alive.After death, it was thrown out of the ground, and then rolled up on a straw mat and sent out of the palace, and then thrown into a mass grave, with no bones left.

This record was first discovered by Shen Man. She reads very fast. Every time she reads a word, it seems that there is a beautiful woman in luxurious clothes smiling at her. Her eyes are as dark as the night sky, and her smile is like a big dipper. brilliant.This was a docile and charming girl, why was she cruelly bestowed to death by the emperor because of something unbearable?

Buried alive?

To bury a living person under the thick soil, first struggle in despair, then suffocate in despair, then turn pale, and finally stare at bloodshot eyes, raise hands upwards and die in a lifting posture .

In the dark underground, all the hard work and struggle are futile, it will only consume more energy and lead to a more miserable death.

When Shen Man saw this place, he felt that he was having difficulty breathing for a while.

Putting his hands on his shoulders, he raised his head heavily, and saw Tang Jiuyue's calm, fair, smooth and beautiful face.Shen Man was sitting on the ground at the moment, holding the volume of records in his hands.Tang Jiuyue stood and bent over.His eyes gradually shifted from Shen Man's face to the scroll in her hand.

"Found it?" Tang Jiuyue asked softly.

"Well, I found it." Shen Man handed it out.

Tang Jiuyue took it and stood up straight to read.Her delicate eyebrows were slightly frowned, and she looked out at the dark night outside.After a long time, he raised his voice and said, "What you see here, you can't mention a word outside."

Although Shen Man was surprised that Tang Jiuyue's voice suddenly became louder, he had no choice but to agree, and then went to find Lian Yi.But he found that Lian Yi was leaning against the wall with her eyes closed and her head hanging, holding a roll of books that looked brand new in her hand.

Seeing Lian Yi's cute and well-behaved sleeping posture, Shen Man smiled slightly, "It seems that Lian Yi's supervisor is too tired."

Holding the records Shen Man found, Tang Jiuyue looked at Lian Yi who was sleeping soundly, and looked at the dust flying around, bent down and looked down at Lian Yi's face carefully, her lips seemed to move.Then he walked towards the door freely, leaving a cold sentence, "Then let her sleep here overnight."

"Sleeping here? This place is full of dust."

"However," Tang Jiuyue turned her head slowly, staring at Shen Man with an unclear tone, "Do you want to carry her back yourself?"

Shen Man knew what was going on when he looked at her like that. Thinking of what Qing Ning said about the "careful" topic of "the gate supervisor" at the beginning, he knew that if he really went back behind Lian Yi's back, then Don't expect to see Tang Jiuyue's good face in the next few months.

So he said resentfully, "Since Lian Yimen is asleep, we can't disturb her casually."

Tang Jiuyue gave a "hmm" and led Shen Man back to Taige.Shen Man was still worried, turned back after following a few steps, took off his coat and covered Lian Yi's body.Lian Yi's eyelashes seemed to move, but she didn't wake up.

Shen Man quietly closed the door, leaving Lian Yi in the darkness.

But at this moment, Shen Man was sitting on the bed, looking at the rising sun outside, secretly wondering whether Lian Yi, who had slept all night in the dusty library, would suddenly die of tuberculosis because of this.If he really fell to the root of the disease, he would have to bear some responsibility, but the biggest responsibility must be Tang Jiuyue.

After dressing and getting ready, as soon as she stepped out of the room, she saw a maid sent by Tang Jiuyue to invite her.Shen was full of expectation that it happened yesterday, so he followed the maidservant into the main hall, and saw Lian Yi sitting in front of the round table with a handkerchief in his hand, covering his mouth and nose and coughing desperately.The eye sockets are red, and there is still a tinge of blue under the eyes, which shows that he suffered a lot last night.

Shen Man walked around her, carefully chose the farthest seat and sat down.But Lian Yi's ferocious eyes continued to cast him, and he was so heavy that he couldn't breathe.

There was hot breakfast on the table, Shen Man picked the nearest meat bun to eat.At this time Tang Jiuyue came in from the side door and sat down, eating the buns elegantly and carefully.

Shen Man peeked at her, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would have thought Tang Jiuyue didn't eat breakfast.But another person who wants to practice Yin-Yang Dao knows how to take care of his body best. Thinking about it this way, Tang Jiuyue just doesn't often eat with them.

Lian Yi coughed a little better, took a sip of tea to moisten her throat, squinted at Tang Jiuyue and said, "I failed to catch the murderer yesterday, seeing that Ning Chun is almost unable to hide from the imperial concubine, are you really not in a hurry? "

Tang Jiuyue politely tore the skin of the bun and stuffed it into her mouth, "Don't worry." She also took a sip of her tea and said with a half-smile, "If it's really impossible, I'll let someone go out and take the blame."

Shen Man opened his mouth slightly, feeling that the steamed stuffed bun in his mouth was dry and difficult to swallow, and felt that Tang Jiuyue, the person to be confessed, was far away in the sky, so he couldn't help turning his head to look at Lian Yi, wondering how she would react.

Lian Yi threw the chopsticks angrily, and said angrily, "I worked so hard to guard the library for you, but you repay me like this? I quit!"

Shen Man was stunned, did Lian Yi not sleep last night?Then a flash of lightning flashed in my mind, could it be that last night in Zangshu Pavilion was deliberately doing a trick to lure snakes out of their holes?Who is this "snake"?

Tang Jiuyue finally wiped out the white and tender bun, and said with a smirk, "Lian Yimen has worked hard, what did you gain last night?"

Lian Yi stood by the table, with his hands folded, his anger still undiminished.Suddenly felt that the sleeves were being pulled, and the expression on his face was a bit surprised, and then he caught a glimpse of a juicy girl from the corner of his eye, but it wasn't Tang Jiuyue. "Shen Man, don't talk."

She was having a relationship with Tang Jiuyue, how could Shen Mann be able to solve it.

Last night, Tang Jiuyue deliberately pretended to hand over the records of Concubine Li to her, and then left herself and left together with Shen Man.Although she whispered in her ear, Lian Yi was unwilling to do so.After being tortured all night, and being treated like this in the morning, it is simply too cruel and inhumane!

Tang Jiuyue smiled faintly, "If you tell me what happened yesterday, I will consider not letting you continue to stay in the Library Pavilion, and I will leave all the affairs of Tianwenmen to you without interfering."

Lian Yi's eyes lit up, "Really?"

"It's a word."

"Okay then," Lian Yi was finally satisfied, grabbed a bun and ate it slowly, "When I was pretending to be asleep yesterday, someone sneaked in and tried to take the book from me, but unfortunately he didn't know The book was not what he wanted."

"Just seeing each other so close, you let him run away too?"

"You don't know how cunning this man is. I may just be breathing a little messily, and he turned around and left."

"So you still got nothing?"

"This..." Lian Yi stared at Tang Jiuyue cautiously. Tang Jiuyue looked calm and behaved gracefully.Lian Yi raised her eyebrows and said, "Master of the gate, please tell me everything you have to say, don't keep it up."

Tang Jiuyue glanced at Shen Man and asked, "What do you think?"

When Shen Man was asked out of the blue, he shook his head and said methodically, "It seems that this suspect is not only related to the palace, but also has something to do with Tianwenmen. Although the scope is getting smaller and smaller, but the number of people is getting bigger and bigger. It's hard to find."

"I already have someone in mind, but I'm not sure yet." Tang Jiuyue's words revealed a hint of self-confidence, and the expression on her face became subtle, "If you find him rashly, he will not admit it, and no one will admit it." I will believe this matter. People who oppose me may also take the opportunity to make things worse, so it is necessary to find definite evidence."

The corners of Lian Yi's lips curled up slightly, "It's best to let him appear automatically."

"Then what will be used to lure him?" Shen Man asked.

Tang Jiuyue and Lian Yi looked at each other, then smiled knowingly, and at the same time said to Shen Man, "Use the person he cares about the most."
