Chapter 169
Xuan Po frowned, took out a long strip of yellow paper from her pocket, bit her index finger, and drew a character on it.

This talisman is of the same type as the character Wen Huang had seen on the dragon bone relic.

Sure enough, the old servant came to the open space under the window.

Seeing the ladder, I was taken aback for a moment.

Then when he saw the rope on the ladder leading directly to the window above, he suddenly came to his senses, his face changed drastically, and he turned around to leave.

The talisman in Xuan Po's hand flew out of the window and hit the old servant.

His eyes gradually became dull, and he turned and walked away slowly.

Then all afternoon, they circled around the Prime Minister's Mansion...

……

Wen Huang rushed back, climbed up the ladder, took back the sack, pulled back the bamboo ladder, put it back, locked the door, patted the ashes on her body, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and returned to the third floor.

"Why so long?" Xuan Po frowned and asked her, "Did you have diarrhea?"

"Yeah! Maybe it's because I ate too much messy food." Wen Huang said while clutching her stomach.

Xuan Po asked her, "Why are you sweating so much?"

Wen Huang: "... sweating."

Xuan Po: "Why are you still out of breath?"

"It's exhausting!" Wen Huang said, "I'm out of breath after climbing a few steps!"

Xuan Po suddenly smiled.

Wen Huang: "What are you laughing at? The concubine has become like this, are you still laughing?"

"Who told you to be greedy?" Xuan Po said, "Let's go back and find the imperial physician to show you."

"No, no, no! My stomach is empty, I have to add some more." Wen Huang firmly picked up the chopsticks, and ate again, before she called someone to lift Xuan Po down.

……

She didn't intend to tell Xuan Po about stealing the imperial decree.

Mainly, how did she know that King De was coming, and how did she know that King De had a secret decree?This is really inexplicable.

……

After returning to the palace and changing clothes, Qiu Wen came to Wen Huang and saluted.

Wen Huang: "Is there something wrong?"

Qiu Wen said: "Zhao Cairen was taken away in the morning, together with her servants in the palace."

Wen Huang: "Oh..."

Xuan Po sent Li Dan to come back to the palace in advance, just to do this.

Qiu Wen: "Later, a young eunuch from Zhou Jieyu's palace was also taken away! Zhou Jieyu was not happy and made trouble with the Queen Mother.

I heard that when he came back, he scolded Zhao Cairen severely, saying...a biting dog doesn't bark..."

It must be that Zhao Lianye used Zhou Yinger's people to poison him, and it was also recruited.

Wen Huang nodded: "Understood! Is there anything else?"

Qiu Wen suddenly knelt down in front of her: "Niang Niang!"

Wen Huang: "Huh?"

Qiuwen: "Your maidservant knows that since she came to the Kunhua Palace, she has not devoted herself to doing things for her mother for a day, and only thinks about her own future and retreat! This servant deserves death!"

Wen Huang didn't speak.

"Your maidservant also knows that once this matter is over, it's time to send out your maidservant." Qiu Wen said again, "No maidservant has any complaints about how your mother treats your servant!"

"Well... I said that you were made to commit crimes and meritorious deeds. You have done nothing wrong. Considering that you have been with the empress dowager for many years, and the empress dowager has always been merciful. If something really happens to you, the empress dowager will think about it." It’s inevitable that you’ll feel uncomfortable.” Wen Huang said: “Let’s do this, I’ll give you two choices. One is to let you go out of the palace. The other is to go to the sixth round, and you can choose a place yourself!”

Qiuwen said gratefully: "My maidservant did such a thing, the empress did not beat the servant into a sinful slave, thank you for your great kindness!"

Wen Huang: "Then what are your plans? Leave the palace or stay?"
