Xin Lan went downstairs through the window, landed lightly on the ground, climbed over the wall, and stepped on a branch not far away, hiding her figure among the branches and leaves.

If the emperor is to be removed from that position, his minions must first be removed, as he did to the Xin family.

Xin Lan's first pick was the Commander of the Forbidden Army. The Forbidden Army was also called the Yulin Army, responsible for protecting the safety of the imperial city. This was the first lock Wu Yanqing put on himself.

Xin Lan investigated for a few days, and when he pretended to be a passer-by passing by the commander of the imperial army, he asked Ling Jiu to scan his situation, and then pieced together everything through some comments from neighbors.

Dong Huaixi is indeed one of Wu Yanqing's more loyal subordinates. He is powerful, has a clean family background, is easy to control, and is not easy to be swayed by other interests.

Xin Lan didn't intend to coerce or lure her. For what she wanted to do, that kind of behavior of cultivating power and infiltrating it was too slow, and she needed efficiency.

So she chose a very villainous way to achieve her own protagonist.

Dong Huaixi has a beautiful woman in a brothel, and her family has a fierce wife, so he can't redeem that person.

After Xin Lan found out, she immediately came to investigate. The funny thing is that Dong Huaixi, the so-called beauty, was just perfunctory to him.

She only loves Dong Huaixi's generous rewards compared to other benefactors, and her gentler care. It is not necessarily true that she is pretending to be ruthless, because she has her own heart and likes a doctor in a medical clinic.

The doctor is kind and charitable, and he can help the world, but he is often in short supply, so she always goes to patronize the business and sends some food.

The story always seems to go like this, he loves her and she loves others.

But this is not what Xin Lan cares about. She told the girl that as long as she can help her with one thing, she will redeem her life.

Who doesn't want to be a clean and innocent person, Xin Lan doesn't want her to seek wealth and murder, as long as she lights a kind of incense and shakes the bell, she quickly agrees.

The time when Dong Huaixi came to look for her happened to be tonight, so Xin Lan immediately went out and went to the Red Sleeve Pavilion first. After finishing the arrangement, she gave the girl some silver as a deposit to make her feel at ease, and waited for her prey to come.

Dong Huaixi entered the room, and as soon as he entered, he smelled a strong fragrance.

Feeling dizzy all of a sudden, he shook his head, and felt that the smoky smell was quite pleasant.

"Why did you change the scent today?"

"Mum has some new spices, so my family begged for some. The slave family thinks it smells good, don't you like it?"

Qingqing limply leaned against her, Dong Huaixi didn't care about the scent, hugged the person in her arms, and shook her head carelessly.

"Why don't you like it? I like everything my sweetheart likes. Come, sit, drink and talk with me."

Qingqing nodded, secretly relieved.

If this person rushed to the bed as soon as he came, she still had to think of a way to ring the bell. Since she was drinking as soon as she came, it would be a good time to delay.

Dong Huaixi said some interesting things, which amused Qingqing in her arms, but she didn't know whether it was because she was drunk tonight or something, and she became extremely dizzy.

"My family has learned a new dance, sir, would you like to see it?"

Qingqing asked in a soft voice, Dong Huaixi nodded, and let go of the hand around her waist.

Qingqing picked up a string of bells from the dressing table and shook them with Wu.

Sitting there, Dong Huaixi's expression became more and more dull, until finally he seemed to lose his mind.

Qingqing shook the bell dozens more times according to what the man said, put down the bell, and looked at the sitting person anxiously.

A stone flew in from the window and hit the back of her neck with precision.

Xin Lan came in from the window, looked at the sluggish Dong Huaixi, and shook her hands in front of him.

Dong Huaixi's eyes were loose, as if he didn't see such a person.

Xin Lan was very satisfied, she let Ah Rou collect medicinal materials and spices for several days to make this soul-losing incense.

A golden needle appeared in Xin Lan's hand, and Xin Lan avoided the fatal place with skill, and buried the golden needle in Dong Huaixi's brain.

Dong Huaixi's expression became more dull, but he was able to look at Xin Lan.

"I will be your master from now on, understand?"

"Yes."

Dong Huaixi nodded, her movements were also very stiff.

"What did the emperor say to you today?"

Dong Huaixi repeated it verbatim, and it was indeed similar to Ling Jiu's recitation Xin Lan heard today.

Xin Lan gently shook Qingqing who was on the ground, and Qingqing stood up from the ground without knowing why, she didn't know why she suddenly fell into a coma just now, thinking of the weird girl in front of her, she immediately understood the reason.

"Everything will be as usual later, let this incense burn out, and I will send someone to redeem you tomorrow."

Qingqing nodded, she just used money to do things, she didn't think so much.

Xin Lan took the bell on the table and went out of the window again.

There was a faint sound of bells coming from outside the window, and Dong Huaixi shook his head and pressed his own head.

What happened just now, seems to be a little dazed, but the woman in front of her is still dancing softly, as if nothing happened.

"Lang Jun, what's the matter, but the slave's dance is not good?"

Qingqing was beating drums in her heart, but she still pretended to be calm and asked.

"How come, it looks good, it looks great."

After hearing the conversation, Xin Lan flickered, disappeared in place, appeared in the long street, and walked towards the inner palace.

This method of controlling people sounds like a villain's method. How can the protagonist do this? It is neither majestic nor convincing.

Xin Lan thinks it doesn't matter, as long as the goal can be achieved.

But in the past, she would kill her directly, but now she has learned to save her life and use it. I don't know if it has changed for the better or worse.

Xin Lan entered the Jade Moon Palace and took off the veil on her face. Although the veil was so thin that it could not cover much of her face, talking about it was better than nothing, and it could always blur people's memories.

After walking around like this for a whole day, Xin Lan lay on the bed and fell asleep quickly.

The next day Xin Long came to find her and told her what he wanted to talk about yesterday.

"Auntie, my great-uncle is going to die."

Xin Lan was also shocked when she heard the words, and was silent for a moment.

Xin Long's great-aunt was her grandfather, her mother's father, General Zhenyuan.

Speaking of which, the old man has also reached his age.

The Xin family can have today's position, but General Zhenyuan spent a lot of thought on his son-in-law. Xin Sheng also strived to climb up to a higher and higher position with the help of his father-in-law, so the relationship between the Xin family and that side is Relatively close.

Once General Zhenyuan falls, the Xin family will inevitably weaken, and they have been struggling to support themselves. In this way, the situation will be even more grim.

Obviously, the Xin family knew the seriousness of the situation, and even Xin Long couldn't help being anxious.

Xin Long comforted her niece and began to think about meeting Prime Minister Zuo.

Wu Yanqing over there is also in better health, and only then remembered the time when he went to Biyue Palace that day, and asked someone to ask, the guard said tremblingly that he didn't know why the Empress Dowager was not fainted that day, but smashed him with something Dizzy, dragged outside the palace and closed the door.

Wu Yanqing didn't think that Xin Lan was lucky, but thought that the guard was useless, and was knocked unconscious by a woman, so when he let people go down, he gave Mei An a look.

Mei An understood and said that he was asking the guard to drink, watching the guard drink a glass of poisoned wine and kick his limp corpse.

Dozens of days have passed like this, seemingly calm, but in fact the dark tide is surging underneath.

The situation in the court became more and more tense, and Wu Yanqing didn't care about Xin Lan, so he didn't come to find trouble again.

Xin Long was left alone by him. In the harem, he often went to Concubine Xi and Concubine Gui, but they often slept with their arms around each other. Wu Yanqing had the intention to do that kind of thing, but for some reason, when he did that, he always felt chilly underneath. , as if the tip of a knife had been scratched, and then thinking of the tearing pain, he turned blue and lost interest.

The noble concubine cried while biting her handkerchief after the emperor left. His Majesty may not be able to get pregnant with a child. Not to mention, she is not as brave as before. She sent someone to inquire about it. Recently, there are no hoofs in the palace to hook the emperor. Heart, this made her depressed.

Concubine Xi also noticed this, but her reaction was not like that of Concubine Xi. She silently asked people to find some spices to add to the fun, and made some tonic for the emperor, so the emperor had the prestige of the past with Concubine Xi. There is a lack of interest in others.

The imperial concubine looked jealous, and was about to die of anger in the palace.

Xin Lan doesn't care about the actions of these women, she now focuses her attention on the front, the support in the front is gone, what can be done in the back, and vice versa, even if these people in the back are knocked down, there will still be New people enter the palace.

The Xin family had always used the banner of being good for the emperor, and asked the emperor to fill the harem with drafts. The emperor really had no reason to refuse. After agreeing, he lost his temper again in front of Qu Zhi'an in the imperial study.

"Look at Zhi'an, how useless I am as an emperor. Things like the harem have to be dictated by those people. Do you know how unwilling I am?"

Wu Yanqing stared straight at the jade-like courtier below, with some eagerness in his words.

He didn't want himself to be an emperor who was obsessed with beauty and accompanied by many beauties in Qu Zhi'an's heart, for fear that she would not like it.

What's more, he knew that in this draft, someone from the Xin family would definitely come in.

"Your Majesty, please appease your anger. If you can't bear it, you will make big plans. So what if this matter is according to their wishes. You are the Son of Heaven. As long as Your Majesty is unwilling, no one in this world can persecute you."

Qu Zhi'an bowed, and said calmly to the angry Wu Yanqing, it was like a breeze blowing into the heart, making people's anger disappear.

Wu Yanqing felt comfortable hearing these words, and since it came from Qu Zhian's mouth, when he met those eyes, he felt that Qu Zhian was loving him.

The monarch and his ministers talked and discussed things again, until there was nothing to say, and then reluctantly let Qu Zhian leave.

Qu Zhi'an pushed the door out, and the eunuchs, maids and guards at the door hurriedly saluted. This is a recent celebrity in front of His Majesty, a very popular figure in court.

It wasn't until Qu Zhi'an sat in the carriage that the expression on his face changed, and he let out a sneer with a hint of sarcasm.

She has become much more stable these days, not as emotionally revealing as she was at the beginning.

The emperor used her hands to eradicate two people, and she also used the emperor to achieve her temporary goal.

She finally understands the benefits of power, which can make people catch up to flatter and frighten people.

It also allows her to do what she wants to do.

When Xin Lan closed the net, the emperor knew what it was like to be persecuted everywhere and end up with nothing even if he was an emperor.
