"Is that so?" Gongsun Mengwei's expression tightened, and he continued to say casually, "Oh? Maybe, it was the mother who gave the handwriting? Not a letter?"

"No," Empress Dowager Xiao turned over, turned her back to Gongsun Mengwei, and said, "The Ai family has no relationship with Master Huineng."

"But Master Huineng said that he received the letter from the queen mother." Gongsun Mengwei said word by word, his eyes fixed on the back of Empress Dowager Xiao and her side face, and noticed that she suddenly opened her eyes, clearly Clearing his throat, he said: "Really? Maybe it happened, Aijia forgot, what did the emperor want to say? Why bother with Aijia."

"It's nothing, I have always respected Master Huineng, and I am afraid that my words will make him feel uncomfortable." Gongsun Mengwei stood up and said, "Since the mother said no, then I believe the mother."

So, who actually lied?Before Gongsun Meng left Kuntai Palace, he was holding the elixir tightly in his hand.Tu Su went to Weiqing Palace to entangle Hua Chao, and Gongsun Mengwei hurriedly left the palace with Baiyue.Chaoyang took a look at the two handsome young men who were galloping towards them on horseback from a distance, and knew that the master's prediction was correct, and they really came three days later.Chaoyang conveyed to her the two tongue-twister words that Long Qingque had told her in advance, "My master said, it's hard to paint a person's skin, but it's hard to paint a heart." Seeing Gongsun Mengwei's displeased expression, Wanting to ask more questions, Chaoyang said: "My master has already wandered away." The implication is that it is useless to ask, "There is also this kit, which my master asked me to give to the young master, saying that it will be opened only when it is extremely critical."

Gongsun Mengwei only got these two sentences and a kit that couldn't be opened now, feeling unwilling in his heart, he took out the fine sand and elixir in his sleeve, "Then girl, help me find out what it is." Although Gongsun Mengwei is also well-informed, he is still inferior to someone like Chaoyang who has lived for an indefinite number of years.Chaoyang touched the fine sand with his hands, smelled the elixir, bit it into his mouth and tasted it, then spat it out, frowning tightly, and remained silent for a long time.Gongsun Meng was in a hurry before he could wait, "Speak up if you have something to say!"

Chaoyang hesitated, whether or not to say, is this what the master meant in his words?Since the master knew about it long ago but didn't tell the truth, shouldn't she tell the truth, she lowered her head and pondered for a while, then raised her head again and said, "Young master, I don't understand very well, but you can ponder over my master's two words." In fact, with a little effort, one can figure out the meaning of those words.

Obviously, Chaoyang knew what to say and refused to say it. Gongsun Mengwei still wanted to force her, so Baiyue gently pulled Gongsun Mengwei's sleeve and said in a low voice: "Master, let's sit there first, humble I have something to say." Chaoyang took the opportunity to retreat, Gongsun Meng didn't frown, and said impatiently: "What do you want to say?"

"Master, I know you see through Chaoyang's heart and know about it, but since she doesn't say anything, she has her reasons." Baiyue persuaded in a nice voice, "Why don't we go back to the palace first, the outside is no better than the palace. It's safe here." Gongsun Mengwei was willing to leave, but Long Qingque was not there, and Chaoyang also hid, which made Gongsun Mengwei feel depressed.

These two sentences are actually not difficult to understand, but they are not easy to understand. What did Long Qing Queding know?Gongsun Mengwei wondered to herself, what did she want to ask Long Qingque?It's about fine sand and elixir.If this is the case... Gongsun Mengwei drank a cup of tea, his mind gradually stabilized, he pondered carefully, his frown gradually relaxed, and whispered a few words in Baiyue's ear, Baiyue was stunned when he heard it Dazed, he finally asked: "Could it be like this?"

"If you follow the meaning of the words, it is very possible, let's go, let's go back to the palace," Gongsun Mengwei led the horse, and talked to Baiyue while walking, and Baiyue was still a little unbelievable, "Then is there any way to crack it? "

This is also Gongsun Mengwei's difficulty, she doesn't know, Long Qingque is not here, should she go back and read the books of the Western Regions?Having said that, aren't all the books from the Western Regions stored in the Weiqing Palace?How did she feel that she hadn't seen him since she came back?

Back in the palace, Gongsun Mengwei went back to Weiqing Palace first, Tu Su was playing chess with Hua Chao, Baiyue yelled that she was interested in playing chess, so he continued to play chess instead of Tu Su, while Tu Su pestered Gongsun Mengwei to chat.The two went out one after the other, Baiyue stayed behind and Hua Chao continued to play chess, looking serious.Gongsun Mengwei told Tu Su about the conversation with Empress Dowager Xiao and the matter of going out of the palace. Tu Su was also a little dumbfounded, but he did not forget to explain, "All the books in the Western Regions are with me." However, the effect was minimal. , she didn't read anything.

Speaking of books, Gongsun Mengwei said something again. Could it be that the mother's empress went to Moxiang Pavilion that day? , She didn't remember that the Empress Dowager had been to Moxiang Pavilion at all, and Kuntai Palace didn't even have a book.Gongsun Mengwei nodded, his eyes became more and more meaningful, heh, things are getting clearer.

"Don't worry about the matter of Rongguo Temple. I'll ask Baiyue to investigate. You and King Xianjun will handle the peripheral affairs well." Gongsun Mengwei ordered in a low voice, and returned to Weiqing Palace.After paying homage to the moon, oh my god, the emperor is finally back, she is going to be bored to death.Before Gongsun Meng came in, he said, "Worship the moon, I will go with you to see the moon sacrifice."

"Yes." Baiyue hurriedly got up, Gongsun Mengwei came to him, took Hua Chao's hand and said: "You will be tired after playing chess for a long time, you take a rest and have dinner with me later." Hua Chao nodded in response .Gongsun Mengwei went out with Baiyue, they were silent all the way, when they arrived in the room, Jiyue wanted to get up to say hello, but Gongsun Mengwei stopped him, "Forget it, your complexion has improved a lot."

Jiyue wanted to apologize, but Gongsun Mengwei waved his hand, "Don't mention it again." Gongsun Mengwei didn't want to bear the matter of sprinkling salt on her scars. Besides, she came here not just to see Jiyue, The most important thing is that she wants to pay homage to Yuecha Rongguo Temple. If she can't outsmart the dark space, then she will force it. She can't wait any longer.

"Yes, I will go to Rongguo Temple tomorrow morning." Baiyue agreed, already thinking about what to do in her heart, Jiyue's body hadn't recovered yet, she wanted to go out, but was rejected by Baiyue.

"One more thing, worship the moon, after you go to Rongguo Temple tomorrow, go privately to see the Minister of the Household and the Minister of the Ministry of War, and pass on my order to transfer all the generals who lead the army, regardless of their official rank, to all their household registrations. The specific location must be confirmed. At this time, there should be no delay, and it should be done as quickly as possible." Gongsun Mengwei did not stop too much, and after giving instructions to worship the moon, she quickly returned to Weiqing Palace.That night, Hua Chao and Gongsun Mengwei were still sleeping together, and soon, there was the sound of Gongsun Mengwei's faint breathing.Hua Chao couldn't fall asleep, eyes open, thinking about what the envoy said to her today.

Today, before Tu Su came to Weiqing Palace, the envoys came to her, and they still said about the assassination, and also issued a death order, if they don't do it, they will be at their own risk.The consequence is that she died, but she had tasted the taste of being a human being, although there was bitterness in it, there was also joy, Hua Chao couldn't give up.If he only hurt the emperor and didn't take her life, it would be good to spend the rest of his life guarding Gongsun Mengwei.

In fact, even being injured, I can't bear to hurt Gongsun Mengwei. Hua Chao thinks that Gongsun Mengwei is not as easy to control as others, just like Hua Qianning, like Jiyue... like that, she doesn't have to take such extreme measures , but for some unknown reason, all the illusion and Gu methods have no effect on the emperor.Hua Chao almost stayed up all night. Three days later, it will be the queen mother's birthday. She must do something, either kill the emperor, or...report the prince?Is it worth it in exchange for the destruction of body and soul?If the emperor really likes her, it's worth it.But Hua Chao faintly felt that the one the emperor was happy with was not her.

No one has ever cared so much about her. When she appeared as a human being, she was everyone's prop, a sharp weapon to kill people invisible.She has never expected it before, but her body was warmed up and she could no longer adapt to the cold. She likes Gongsun Mengwei, how she treats her well, and her smile... because no one told her that she would really like a people.Prince Rong never said it, the messenger never said it, they only said: Hua Chao, the real you is a person with no heart; the present you, the heart is all drawn, that is fake, if you don't obey, you will Instantly vanished.

So, Hua Chao tried her best to do it, as long as it was Prince Rong's order, she would die, and the invisible blood had already stained her hands.Hua Chao didn't mind that, no matter how many people were killed, it was pointless, because those people had nothing to do with her, she just wanted to live as a person, that's all.

But now, Gongsun Mengwei made Hua Chao no longer cold-blooded and ruthless. She would feel distressed, sad, and even cry.Heh, Hua Chao is laughing at himself, where do you have tears to shed?You are not a real person at all, have you forgotten?Hua Chao.

The next day, Gongsun Mengwei went to bed early, and Hua Chao curled up on his side, curled up in the quilt, as if he had fallen asleep.After Gongsun Mengwei got up, he lifted the quilt, and in the corner of Hua Chao's eyes, he saw something strange, there were golden sequins.Gongsun Meng didn't raise his hand to caress, and the fragments instantly turned into fine sand, exactly the same as the fine sand in Huachao's room.Gongsun Meng didn't think about it, she already fully understood Long Qingque's words, Gongsun Meng didn't look at it carefully for a long time, this face was extremely beautiful, those eyes were like ghosts, seductive, the more beautiful, the more It hurts.She obviously had the opportunity to strike, but she didn't move. Was it because the opportunity hadn't arrived, or her master had never given an order?Or is there another reason?Gongsun Meng didn't look at it for a long time, covered Hua Chao with the quilt, got up and left.

Hua Chao opened her eyes and looked at the distant figure, as if her heart also flew out.Your majesty, why do you treat her so well?Can a person not love someone but be kind to him?Hua Chao doesn't understand, her world was originally only darkness and killing, no one told her what love is, how to love...

Above the court, Gongsun Mengwei sat on the Golden Luan Hall and said majestically: "Prince Rong, the Queen Mother's birthday is approaching, can I trouble Prince Rong to make a painting for the Queen Mother?"

"The emperor has orders, and I should obey." Gongsun Jin stood up and saluted slightly. Gongsun Meng did not squint his eyes, but with a smile, he said, "Well, I had a dream yesterday. If the Empress Dowager congratulates her on her birthday, please ask Prince Rong to make a picture of seven fairies celebrating her birthday." Gongsun Jin replied, "Yes."

"The Empress Dowager's birthday will be in three days. I want to see this painting tomorrow night." Gongsun Meng didn't put away her smile, showing majesty. Gongsun Jin bowed slightly with his head held high, "Yes." An imperceptible sneer.
