The First Empress - Chapter 208
Chapter 208 Secretly Deceive
Linglong sighed inwardly. Ji Zhuhua said, “It’s fine. With this palace here to help you protect this baby, they don’t dare to do anything. If you make too many enemies, many people will naturally take advantage of the situation. However, you still have to be careful. You can’t be numb and let people in.” Linglong could only nod her head repeatedly. Suddenly, she remembered what had just happened and couldn’t help but feel a little puzzled, “Just now?”
“He didn’t dare to make a move just now because the hidden guards were secretly protecting you. She also knows what I mean by clapping my hands. You can’t see the shadow guards, but they’re right there.” After Ji Zhu Hua finished speaking, a ball of green man covered in willows hung over his head and said, “Li Concubine Mude himself is completely unaware of Chongyuan’s courtyard.”
Ji Zhu Hua glanced at Ling Long and said, “Did you hear that? When you arrived at the palace in Concubine Mude, you let Zhenxi leave the palace and made a strong enemy for yourself. Do you know that?” Linglong nodded and said, “I know.”
Ji Zhuhua said, “You only know the great effects. You must not only protect yourself, but also fight back. Otherwise, such a person will become even more arrogant. If she were to join hands with Lan Sou Yu now, the two of them would naturally attack with all their might. This palace cannot stay with you. Therefore, you must understand the importance of tactics.”
Her words made Linglong feel as if she was drinking wine. As if bathed in the spring breeze, He nodded repeatedly. Ji Zhuhua was also a little relieved. “I also like you because I know by analogy, “With this palace here to help you, you don’t need to be afraid. They are just smart people. You and I are both wise people. There’s no need to be afraid. You need to firmly remember that it’s the guarantee of survival for a soldier to block the water and cover the earth. You understand what this palace means, don’t you?” Linglong nodded her head repeatedly. Ji Zhuhua said, “Then this palace will leave first.”
Linglong was even more attentive, sending Ji Zhuhua away.
Linglong sat and waited for Huiqi tonight. She believed that Huiqi already knew about what had happened today. Even if she didn’t know, Huiqi had already come. Linglong naturally knew how much of this was due to the Empress. Therefore, the hair of the noodle soup had already been twisted up. A man dressed in makeup appeared again. Eunuch Lu and his guard of honor had already walked towards Yunluan Palace. Before the group of people arrived, Eunuch Lu’s sharp voice had already come over. “The Emperor has arrived. Master Yunluan Palace, come out to welcome you.”
Huiqi waved his hand and said, “Eunuch Lu, are you also old and foolish? Now that the moon is dark and the winds are high, it’s not a big deal to take the carriage. If something happens, wouldn’t it be dangerous?” Eunuch Lu hurriedly spat, “It’s a slave, isn’t it?”
Leaving outsiders behind, The two of them arrived in the inner hall one after the other. Linglong greeted her happily. Huiqi saw that Linglong’s footsteps were still quick and she hurriedly supported her. As she asked about the recent situation, she said something neither salty nor insipid. When Linglong saw that Huiqi had talked to her about entering Hong Kong, she couldn’t help but be in a good mood. She said, “The Emperor happened to be here. Does this concubine have something to ask the Emperor for an idea?”
Huiqi looked at Linglong. Linglong hesitated for a while, but still did not speak directly. After all, the matter was very important. Sometimes, Ji Zhuhua’s words could not be completely believed. She could only say, “The Emperor has blood droplets under him, right?”
Huiqi was secretly shocked. Linglong was naturally aware of this in the study. The emperor was protected not only by the Ming Featherwood Guards and Royal Guards, but also by the hidden Dragon Taboo Commandant and Blood Droplet, The Dragon Taboo Lieutenant will go all the way when necessary, And Blood Droplet is a very mysterious organization, Huiqi rarely talks about these things, Besides, Blood Drop always kills one person from a thousand miles away, After the matter is settled, no one will be able to see Xing Zang. However, Linglong asked her. She was shocked and naturally knew Linglong’s intentions. She said, “Alright, I will let Blood Droplet protect you in your palace. When you encounter danger, they will all come out, but now you can’t see them.”
“Invisible man?” Linglong was puzzled.
Huiqi only nodded. Obviously, he did not want the topic to continue. He said, “You can say so.”
Linglong begged again and again, and Huiqi said, “They will come from today onwards. I will find you someone who can protect you personally. When the time comes, I will send them to you. You can rest assured that you will have a baby. Don’t think nonsense.”
The fragrance in Yunluan Palace is dense, and Huiqi seems to be drunk. He says, “Don’t use this fragrance in the future. I don’t like it.”
Linglong felt that Yun Tan’s fragrance was not bad, but since Huiqi didn’t like it, she naturally wouldn’t use it in the future. Huiqi nodded. Linglong had already removed all the spices, so the palace didn’t have a faint smell.
At this time, Lan Sou Yu’s Changle Palace was bustling with activity. Someone was singing and dancing on the stage, Someone below the stage was intoxicated. Of course, the one in a bad mood was Concubine Mude. Concubine De looked at Lan Sou Yu with her desolate and lonely eyes and said, “This palace still doesn’t believe it. There’s no other way. According to this palace’s intentions, it’s better to kill us quickly. I’m sure the Emperor doesn’t dare to do anything to us now. How about my sister?”
The banquet was just a cold exchange between the two of them. After a long time, Lan Sou Yu smiled and said, “Sister He De, how can you have any good ideas? You also understand in Yunluan Palace today …” At this point, Lan Sou Yu clapped her hands. A man had already walked out and said, “Come on.”
The man took a step forward without saluting or greeting, and said, “Today, when I arrived in Yunluan Palace, I found that there were countless guards there. I was afraid of death, so I didn’t immediately make a move.”
“Truth be told, you’re all like you, so can’t I take revenge for my grudge?” The phoenix wings above Concubine De’s head moved coldly. Lan Sou Yu pretended to be slightly surprised and said, “Could it be that Sister has a better idea?”
Imperial Concubine De sneered, “There is only one way. Find someone who is not afraid of death.”
Lan Shuyu nodded. But Lan Sou Yu also knew that Ling Long Yunluan Palace was heavily guarded, He shook his head and said, “I don’t want to act too hastily. However, if there is someone who isn’t afraid of death next to the Empress, then arrange for them to go. However, it is naturally useless for everyone here to be pustules. It would be ridiculous if they don’t succeed in putting on makeup like this.”
After Lan Shuyu finished speaking, she took two steps and gently tapped the man’s shoulder. “This palace is wondering who will be able to play the perfect role next time. What does Imperial Concubine De think?” She said. Imperial Concubine De sneered, “It’s as if you can’t assassinate without playing a cat or a dog. Could it be that ancient assassins had to play a person under a clever name? This palace doesn’t feel the need for this. There is a person beside this palace. First, he will disguise himself, and secondly, he is not afraid of death. I can let him give it a try.” When Lan Sou Yu heard this, she knew that the topic had succeeded. Now, even if she was caught, it had nothing to do with her. How could there be people who were not afraid of death these days? It was simply a fantasy. People who said that they were not afraid of death often ran the fastest in the end.
Imperial Concubine De clapped her hands, and the weak little palace maid behind her walked over. Lan Sou Yu couldn’t help but be disappointed, “She will disguise herself, and she will assassinate?”
Imperial Concubine De merely sneered, “Why don’t you let her disguise him? Your Highness will understand after seeing it.” As she spoke, Concubine De pointed at the man standing on the spot. Lan Sou Yu nodded her head repeatedly and said, “Alright, go to the back and disguise yourself as a fake Bu Ling Long. You must be very similar. This palace would like to have a look.”
The two of them arrived at the back. Lan Shuyu slowly broke open the fresh pomegranates on the plate with a knife. He put the pomegranate seeds on a plate and said, Then she sent it over. Concubine De took it in her hand, but she didn’t eat it. Lan Sou Yu was using her knife to break open another one. At this moment, a man suddenly cried out in the back hall. His voice was loud, but it was very short. It was gone in a while. The knife in Lan Sou Yu’s hand also fell to the ground. She didn’t expect it to be so fast …
This was the time for a broken pomegranate. Was it … over?
At this moment, she was not a merchant, but a carefully selected person from the thousands of people. She knew that it was impossible for them to really disguise themselves behind her, but she did not expect that they would be so fast …
The palace maid walked over and dragged the man’s soft body out like a snake. Lan Sou Yu was surprised, “How did he die?” Lan Shuyu also felt that it was a good death. Such a person did not have the slightest bit of precaution, did he not deserve to die? The woman smiled like a silver bell and said, “It’s just a stab in the chest.”
Lan Shuyu looked at her chest. There was not a single drop of blood on that person’s body, It was as if she had fainted. She was afraid that the two of them were acting. Before she could finish suspecting him, the woman had already ripped off the man’s clothes. When she looked again, there was indeed a wound there. There was a rag stuffed on the wound. The woman smiled and said, “I just don’t want his blood to dirty the Empress’ palace.” At this time, Lan Shuyu treated Concubine De differently. Such a little girl had always been obedient to her. She poured water whenever she wanted and did whatever she wanted. However, she did not expect that she was actually an expert. Furthermore, she was clearly an expert who came and went without a trace. With her, she would not worry about killing Linglong.
The next day, Huiqi had arranged for the blood droplets, Linglong was afraid that the blood would not come out at this critical moment. After Huiqi told her about the incision, Linglong secretly remembered the complicated sentences that were like the ‘Inhibition Curse’ and nodded her head. Linglong knew that with the protection of the blood droplets in the dark, her heart was much quieter. After all, now that her child’s month was getting bigger and bigger, she couldn’t let down her guard.
Sure enough, Linglong did not go out anymore. She only paced around the rich house every day. According to Huiqi, there was no need for even a little incense. She often looked around with Qin’er and did not want to take a small step out of Yunluan Palace.
