Occupational Disease Dark Guard's Favorite Concubine Survival Guide

At three o'clock in Haishi, the study room of the Duke's Mansion.

Tang Miao took Wei Yuan's order and crouched quietly on a tree outside the study door. The branches were wet and slippery, but his lightness kung fu was pretty good. He stepped on the branches without moving, as if he had merged into the dark night, completely Turned into a part of the tree, growing among the lush branches and leaves.

Rain is indeed a perfect day for an assassin. Tang Miao stared at the wandering shadow in the window of the study from the leaves. When he put down the book in his hand, blew out the candle, and opened the door, he immediately raised his arm and lowered his head to pull the crossbow. Suddenly, a sharp arrow shot through the crack of the door with a note hanging on it, and pierced the wall with a muffled sound.

Fu Chuanli was stunned for a moment before he came back to his senses, gasping for breath after realizing it, he subconsciously wanted to call out, but when he turned around and saw the note tied to the arrow, his face changed abruptly and he suppressed his voice. Instead, he half-closed the door and looked around in panic, for fear that others would know.

Tang Miao planned to immediately distance himself from his legs, and when he saw this, he squatted back again. He secretly said that it was a bit interesting, and he might be able to gain extraordinary secret information this trip. , saving him from throwing off the pursuers.

He quietly waited for Fu Chuanli to pretend to be calm and close the door, then stepped on a branch lightly with his feet, rushed under the eaves, and carefully poked open a bit of the high window paper.

Fu Chuanli swallowed his saliva, and inserted the bolt on the door like a frightened bird, turned his head while walking, moved to the side of the arrow branch and pulled it out forcefully, then quickly untied the rope and unfolded the note.

He frowned and saw that there were only four correct words, "don't say too much".

Fu Chuanli gripped the note tightly, threw it on the ground in frustration, propped his forehead and sighed deeply, and after a while he walked quickly to the window, opened the window and begged in a low voice: "Who the hell are you? The old man didn't reveal anything. , didn’t say anything to His Majesty! Yi’er is dead, and the old man let Qiufeng enter the palace, so can’t you let the old man go?”

Tang Miao grabbed the beams and pillars under the eaves, and Fu Chuanli's tone gradually became exasperated. After thinking for a while, he guessed that Yi'er should refer to Fu Jingyi, the eldest son of Fu Chuanli who died in battle. It really wasn't as simple as threatening Fu Jingze's life as Fu Chuanli said.

At this moment, a middle-aged woman came hurriedly along the path, carrying a food box, and when she heard Fu Chuanli's words of stopping, her expression became uncertain.

"Master, is there someone shooting arrows again?" Mrs. Fu entered the study and asked worriedly.

"Well, warn me not to talk too much to His Majesty." Fu Chuanli closed the window, "Unexpectedly, Yi'er was confused for a while... Sigh."

"Master, can we only be threatened by him all the time?" Mrs. Fu picked up the note, a little unwilling, "Your Majesty brought Fu Qiufeng here. If I hadn't pretended to be sick and disappeared, Fu Qiufeng would have humiliated me with a show of power. If I had known today, Why don't you just ignore it at the beginning, it's just a letter, saying that someone forged evidence to tarnish Yi'er's reputation, Yi'er has been dead for many years, would His Majesty believe that person who hides his head and shows his tail?"

"Prudent protection will also lead to destruction." Fu Chuanli repeated in a low voice, and sighed, "The sender hides his head and shows his tail, but what about his master? Assuming that this letter of collusion with the enemy is in the hands of Chen Junde, how can my Fu family turn around?" day!"

The two fell silent at the same time, and Fu Chuanli paced around the room, complaining, "If you hadn't said that Wu Yan should not stay in the mansion due to her humble status, I would not have sent her away, and there would be no danger today."

Madam Fu raised her eyebrows, and said angrily: "Master, why didn't you say that you didn't go to the Laoshizi brothel back then, and didn't know any beautiful singing girls, so you wouldn't be in danger today? It's all your decision, you're so weird I come."

"All right, all right, I won't quarrel with you." Fu Chuanli waved his hand wearily, "Wait a while and wait and see what happens. Ze'er should be back tomorrow. Let the mansion prepare some good wine and food. I'll talk about it carefully." Say him."

As soon as Mrs. Fu heard about Fu Jingze, she immediately showed distress. She nodded, and when she walked to the door, she suddenly remembered something, and asked in a low voice: "By the way, I remember that after you brought that woman back, an assassin asked her what palace she wanted. The peony jade pendant in the palace, this time Fu Qiufeng was also allowed to enter the palace, could it have something to do with it?"

"She is a singing girl. Even if she has a valuable jade pendant, she would have been a prostitute a long time ago. How many years of things can still be related." Fu Chuanli shook his head, "To be honest, I always feel that this is Chen Junde's person. Let His Majesty snub the imperial concubine and create opportunities for his daughter."

"But the noble concubine is fine now. I heard that a chief eunuch was lost in the concubine's palace." Mrs. Fu sneered a little, and put the note on the table, "I'll go back to rest first, and don't bother me, sir. There must be a way ahead.”

Tang Miao watched with bated breath as the two turned off the lights and went out. Fu Chuanli hid the arrow branch in his outer shirt and did not go back to the bedroom directly. , like an ordinary showroom, Tang Miao avoided a group of patrolling guards, jumped onto the roof and lay down under the ridge, lifted a tile, saw Fu Chuanli turn the vase a few times, and entered the opened underground secret room .

In less than a quarter of an hour, Fu Chuanli left the room. Tang Miao waited, then quickly entered the room, opened the secret room according to the angle Fu Chuanli twisted the vase, and found a long flat box placed at the bottom of the bookcase. Pulled out a thin needle from the cuff, bent it slightly, inserted it into the keyhole and fiddled a few times to unlock it, and saw two arrows and a note put together.

……

"The subordinate took the arrow and the note, and returned everything to its original place, so he rushed back to the palace as soon as possible." Tang Miao described the history of the Xiangguo Duke's mansion, "According to my subordinates' inference, when Fu Jingyi led troops to fight against Beiyou, he returned to the palace as soon as possible." , communicated privately with Beiyou, this letter was used to threaten Fu Chuanli, but the only thing my subordinates didn't understand was that Mrs. Fu mentioned the peony jade pendant in the palace."

"Why would a singing girl have a jade pendant in the palace? If she was rewarded by the palace, how could she be reduced to prostitution." Rong Fan was puzzled.

"I have never heard my late mother mention it, but my late mother knows everything about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Maybe it's because of her family's decline. Even if she has property, she sold it." Fu Qiufeng frowned and said to Tang Miao, "This note is written by Sun Lihui. handwriting."

Tang Miao was stunned: "Sun Lihui is dead, isn't that a death without proof? Could it be that this is also done by the masked man? Mr. Fu, you have been in the palace for so long, and no one has secretly contacted you to coerce and lure him to do things for him?"

Fu Qiufeng pressed his fingertips, and the arrow branch nimbly twirled twice between his fingers. He looked at Tang Miao with a smile, and asked unhurriedly, "Are you suspicious of me?"

Tang Miao covered his mouth, knowing that he had made a slip of the tongue, and shook his head again and again: "No, how is it possible! This subordinate knows that you and His Majesty have a deep relationship, and will never betray His Majesty. Even if you have tens of millions of gold, it is impossible to shake your loyalty, my lord. !"

Fu Qiufeng sneered at Tang Miao's bald strings, Rong Fan got up and took the arrow from Fu Qiufeng's fingers, after checking it was just an ordinary arrow in the barracks.

"Fu Chuanli suspects Chen Junde, and he must keep the evidence. If there is any emergency, he can show it to testify." Rong Fan handed the arrow back to Tang Miao, "You send the things back intact, don't let Fu Chuanli find out. "

"Yes." Tang Miao immediately took the arrow and quickly escaped from Fu Qiufeng's sight.

Standing by the window, Rong Fan pondered and said, "I will add two hidden guards for you, who will take turns to protect your safety day and night."

Fu Qiufeng refused without thinking: "Your Majesty, I can't accept it. We have to pretend that we don't know about it. If we suddenly increase the guards, won't we clearly inform the enemy that we have discovered something in the Duke's Mansion?"

Rong Fan turned his head and stared at the rigorous Fu Qiufeng: "You didn't take your own safety into consideration at all."

"Since someone needs a minister to enter the palace, it cannot be for the purpose of killing him." Fu Qiufeng insisted.

"Then why were you pushed into the pond and almost drowned?" Rong Fan raised the corner of his mouth sarcastically, "Do you need to drown again to cool down your feverish mind?"

"Your Majesty." Fu Qiufeng softened his tone helplessly, "It was an accident, maybe it was because Yang Huai was not high enough in the mysterious man's organization, so he didn't know the role of the minister... It seems that the mysterious envoy's network is very powerful. It is complicated, and it is also cautious enough in terms of intelligence to prevent one person from being captured and leaking secrets."

Seeing him frowning and analyzing again, Rong Fan didn't have the slightest intention of reflection, but felt powerless for a while, so he simply gave the order: "Then after the spring hunting, I will send a secret guard to teach you martial arts and protect you by the way. If someone wants to take advantage of you, they can always find an opportunity, and I just happened to see what they can do."

"Yes." Fu Qiufeng could only agree.

"You don't seem too happy about letting the hidden guards teach you martial arts?" Rong Fan walked to Fu Qiufeng's side, and glanced at him with a smile from the corner of his eye, "Could it be that you don't like the meager skills of the dark guards?"

"No, I am very happy." Fu Qiufeng pulled out a bright smile, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Rong Fan withdrew his eyes in disgust: "Tomorrow I will ask Shangguan to inquire about the peony jade pendant in the palace to see if there is any record. Even if it has nothing to do with the enemy, if you can find Lingtang's former family or relatives alive, if you are willing, I will I'll take care of you."

Fu Qiufeng himself hadn't thought about this, he was dumbfounded for a moment, Rong Fan always surprised him in details, this kind of carefulness and respect was nothing like the high-ranking emperor who always said he wanted to hold the world in his hands, Ambitious young emperor, but at the same time has a gentleness that should hardly exist.

"Sir...let's talk about it later." Fu Qiufeng nodded and said in a low voice, "It's getting late, does Your Majesty want to rest?"

"You go to bed first, I'll wait for the result from the Shangguan." Rong Fan walked to the table and picked up the chess piece back into the box, and smiled coldly, "If I can implicate Concubine Xian by this, I will demote her. point."

Fu Qiufeng nodded. He untied his belt and hung it on the hanger. Hearing the crashing of the chess pieces, the time for the missed tick had come, and even he felt sleepy.

"Your Majesty." Fu Qiufeng hesitated for a while, remembering that Rong Fan would occasionally show fatigue, he still persuaded, "You should pay attention to your health, go to bed early, if there is any news, it will come early tomorrow morning."

After finishing placing the chess pieces, Rong Fan tilted his head in surprise: "Aiqing still cares about my body?"

Fu Qiufeng said seriously: "If you stay up late too much, your hair will fall out. You love and cherish your long hair so much. You should take good care of it."

Rong Fan: "..."

Rong Fan tried to explain: "I don't care about these little things."

"Yes, Your Majesty is naturally informal." Fu Qiufeng nodded perfunctorily, then called Xiaoyuanzi in, and put the chessboard back.

Xiaoyuanzi leaned over to pick up the chess pieces on the chessboard. When he took a step, he felt something was kicked under his feet, so he stepped on it to try it out, only to hear a click.

Fu Qiufeng rushed up and stood in front of Rong Fan, turned his head and glanced at the top of Rong Fan's head, there was no sign, but he still said nervously: "Your Majesty, be careful, there seems to be a trap under the table, could it be that someone sneaked in?"

Rong Fan was also made vigilant by Fu Qiufeng, grabbed Fu Qiufeng's shoulder and took a few steps back, said coldly: "Xiao Yuanzi, look at what's under the table."

Xiao Yuanzi was so frightened that he was sweating, but he could only obey orders, put down the chessboard and squatted down slowly, lifted the tablecloth, ready to be shot by the poisonous needle crossbow arrows, but after he opened it, he only saw a puppet .

The puppet was carved funny, and there was a tall and redundant object on the lower body, which was broken by his foot, and the whole root fell to the side.

Xiaoyuanzi looked back at Fu Qiufeng with a strange expression.

He thought to himself that the palace has always avoided dolls very much, and it is easy to be labeled as using the technique of disgusting victory, not to mention that this doll is so unsightly, if Fu Qiufeng hid it, wouldn't he have harmed his master.

"What's under the table?" Fu Qiufeng asked.

"Uh, no, it's nothing, it's...a writing brush!" Yuanzi said with difficulty.

"Say it again?" Rong Fan's eyes turned cold.

Xiaoyuanzi was about to cry and didn't dare to move. Fu Qiufeng went directly to squat down, then remained silent for a while, then turned around and said, "Your Majesty, you should pay attention to this trivial matter."

Rong Fan raised his eyebrows inexplicably.

"It seems that the imperial concubine took the note and threw the doll here." Fu Qiufeng directly reached out to take out the doll, and looked down as if nothing had happened, worried, "Do you feel okay?"

Rong Fan: "..."

Rong Fan said angrily: "I can't do it, what can I do to you!"

His face turned red with anger, he snatched the doll from Fu Qiufeng and threw it on the wall, and strode away from Lanxin Pavilion.

A quarter of an hour later, Rong Fan came back again.
