Chapter 96

In fact, the queen mother originally wanted to stir up the relationship between the three sisters of the Mu family and use the hands of Mu Qingzhu and Mu Qingxiang to deal with the queen. Luckily, Ruyin proposed a second plan, which happened to be applicable. Thinking of this, the empress dowager's face softened, and she spoke with a smile.

"Since you don't want to stay in the palace and want to reunite with your family, Ai's family agrees. Regarding this incident, Ai's family feels uneasy. I will hold a banquet for you tonight. How about taking a walk in the garden with Ai's family now?" ?”

The empress dowager's benevolent look made it hard to refuse, and she didn't make things difficult for the two of them. Mu Qingzhu and Mu Qingxiang heaved a sigh of relief and nodded at the same time.

"Qing Zhu (Qing Xiang) obeys."

"Come on, the Ai family wants to go for a walk." After the queen mother said, Eunuch Li immediately held the arm of the queen mother graciously, and helped her walk down the phoenix couch, followed by eunuchs and maids, and a group of people walked out go.

Mu Qingzhu and Mu Qingxiang hurried forward to accompany the Queen Mother for a walk in Guangyang Palace...

The evening clouds dispersed, and the sky was light blue, as clear and clean as if washed by water, without a trace of dust.

The breeze blows the green grass, forming a shallow sea of ​​waves...

In the side hall of Fengluan Palace, Mu Qingyao had just finished her dinner, and she was contemplating what to do tonight. This matter must be done quietly, otherwise the Queen Mother would be alarmed, and Chun Han would not be saved, but would end up in a trap , As long as you find someone, you won't be afraid of her.

"Bingxiao, Mochou, have you two figured out the location of the torture chamber in Guangyang Palace?"

Mochou and Bingxiao nodded at the same time: "Yes, empress."

"Then let's act now. Remember, you must be quick and don't alarm anyone. There is a powerful master hidden in Guangyang Palace. Bingxiao will lure her away and let Mochou bring Chunhan out.

"Your Majesty, what if there is no one?" Mo Chou asked worriedly. In fact, she did not approve of saving Chun Han. Anyway, the eunuch belonged to the Empress Dowager. Even if she killed her, it was his life. Why bother to save such a eunuch? What about the villain?For Mo Chou's reluctance, Mu Qingyao knew it at a glance.

"Mochou, if there is no one, you will come back. Anyway, we have done our best, but if someone is really inside, you can bring him back. Don't forget that he is the chief eunuch of our Fengluan Palace. At least his Caught to prove that he did not betray us, we can't just ignore it."

Mu Qingyao's voice resounded in the side hall, and everyone who heard it could not help being respectful. The empress has always been principled in her work, and Mo Chou felt guilty: "It's the servant who thinks too much."

"Mochou, I know you have always cared about me, don't worry, I have my own sense of proportion."

Mo Chou nodded, yes, she regards the master's life as her own, this palace is like an abyss, even if thousands of people die, she doesn't want the master to die, what does the life and death of those people have to do with them, the master didn't want to enter The palace was forced to enter the palace, and now so many things have happened, especially the old woman in the palace, it is really grinding...

"The servant knows."

"Well, let's do it."

Mu Qingyao waved her hand, Mochou and Bingxiao retreated quietly, Mei Xin accompanied the master in the hall, and served tea, seeing the worry on the master's brow, she couldn't help asking with concern: "Ma'am What's wrong?"

"It seems that something is going to happen tonight, which is disturbing."

Mu Qingyao's eyes were dim and hard to see, and the coolness of early autumn covered her clear face.

Mei Xin just felt startled, the master's sensitivity has always been strong, could something really happen tonight, thinking of this, Mei Xin became anxious.

"Mother, since I feel uneasy, why should we let Bingxiao and Mochou go to save people, maybe there is a trap waiting for us!"

"A trap?" Mu Qingyao thought about this possibility. If Chunhan's arrest was really a trap, the queen mother would not benefit much. She sent someone to break into Guangyang Palace privately, and at most she would be reprimanded. For the queen mother, I'm afraid she is not reconciled, the worry in her heart seems to be more than that simple.

"They have already acted. Let's wait for the news. It's useless to say anything."

"Your Majesty, let's go to the dormitory to rest for a while, don't know when you will be back?"

"Okay," Mu Qingyao stood up, brushing away the uneasiness in her heart. She didn't believe that the queen mother could turn the world upside down when the soldiers came to cover her up. However, he was worried about his eunuchs, which is why he was so reckless. Even if the emperor knew about it, he would not say anything deeply.

A master and a servant got up and left the side hall. The eunuchs and maids were guarding the door. Mu Qingyao looked up. The originally clear night sky was now covered with a layer of dark clouds, covering the brilliance of the dark night. Is there something big going on like that?
Compared with the gloomy and restless Liuli Palace, Guangyang Palace is now full of joy, with laughter from time to time.

In the main hall, there are beautiful figures, dazzling...

The empress dowager hosted a banquet, not only the two sisters of the Mu family, but also Princess Ruyin, the imperial concubine, and the crescent girl. For a while, the red and green shirts in the hall were extremely gorgeous, and the eunuchs and maids could be seen Dumbfounded, these women are more beautiful and prettier than the other.

Before the banquet started, the Empress Dowager was a little powerless, extremely exhausted, and yawned from time to time, and Princess Ruyin immediately said distressedly: "Mother, please go back to the bedroom to rest for a while, let us talk for a while, and wait for you to rest. Okay, how about we have a banquet again?"

When the Queen Mother heard it, it was just what she wanted, and immediately covered her mouth with Dan Koonong's finger, and said lovingly: "You help the Queen Mother entertain the girls well, the Queen Mother will come out after lying down for a while, and we will have a banquet."

"Yes, Queen Mother." Ruyin nodded obediently, then turned around and told Eunuch Li who was next: "Xiao Lizi, please go to the bedroom to rest for a while after helping mother."

"Yes, princess." Eunuch Li didn't dare to offend the princess. This girl is no better than others, but the Queen Mother still thinks of him a little bit. She doesn't admit it. A roll of her eyes can kill him, so she has always been careful with her.

Eunuch Li helped the queen mother back to the palace slowly.

The main hall fell silent, Princess Ruyin glanced around, and a silver bell-like laughter rang out: "Everyone, please be casual, the queen mother is not here, let's chat for a while, don't sit still."

"Yes, princess."

Except for the imperial concubine, no one would dare to make a mistake. Everyone has heard of Princess Ruyin's reputation. She is arrogant and tyrannical. If you make her unhappy, you will be overwhelmed. Therefore, Mu Qingzhu and Mu Qing Xiang only looked at her cautiously, Ximen Xinyue raised her crescent eyebrows, her thoughtful light was hidden under her black pupils, what happened tonight was a little unusual, but if she had to say what was unusual, she would Unable to speak?
This uneasy atmosphere became more and more intense, Ximen Xinyue simply stood up and spoke gently.

"Princess, Xinyue suddenly feels unwell and wants to go back to Weiyang Palace to rest."

That Chu Yuyan didn't know why her aunt was hosting a banquet tonight, but she knew that it was absolutely nothing good, and she was too lazy to meddle in their affairs, so when she saw Ximen Xinyue get up, she also got up, and said calmly: " Royal sister, I will go back with Xinyue."

"Okay, come back later, the queen mother has rested, and we will have a banquet."

It was rare for Murong Ruyin to smile softly, there was a surging undercurrent in her eyes, Chu Yuyan and Ximen Xinyue drew back.

In the main hall, Mu Qingzhu and Mu Qingxiang immediately became fidgety. Originally, the Empress Dowager hosted a banquet for them, but they were already terrified. Who knew that the Empress Dowager was tired and wanted to rest for a while. The banquet was postponed, and the imperial concubine and Miss Xinyue left. It wasn't a problem to leave the two of them sitting dry with the princess, so Mu Qingzhu and Mu Qingxiang stood up and blessed themselves.

"How dare Qingzhu and Qingxiang work for the princess, let's go back to Chuxiu Palace and wait until the Queen Mother wakes up."

There was a flash of hostility on Murong Ruyin's bright face, and a gentle smile appeared on the corner of his lips: "Then how can I do it? The Imperial Concubine and Miss Xinyue are not feeling well, so I allowed them to go back to rest. You should also understand that this evening's banquet is theirs, and you are the main guests, so let me take a walk with you outside, I believe that the queen mother will wake up soon."

"This?" The two sisters looked at each other, and Mu Qingxiang frowned, always feeling that something was unusual, but what was the problem? By the way, it was the attitude of the princess. The princess was always arrogant and rude, but now she became gentle and polite. , It's really weird, but since she said it, they have a reason not to obey it, if they really annoy her, I'm afraid they will have no good fruit to eat.

"Thank you princess."

The two sisters stood up, Murong Ruyin got off the phoenix couch, and the three of them led their personal maids out of the hall.

The night is dark, and only a few stars can be seen from far and near. It is gloomy and unsettling. There is a layer of gray and thin mist everywhere. Occasionally, a gust of wind passes by, rustling, which makes people feel cold and stand on end. Cold sweat.

What kind of a walk at night like this? The more Mu Qingzhu and Mu Qingxiang thought about it, the more something was wrong, but the group of people had already walked through the corridor and headed for the back garden of Guangyang Palace.

The eunuch was lighting a lantern in front, and the lantern trembled flickeringly, like a ghostly fire, indescribably weird.

Mu Qingxiang and Mu Qingzhu shook hands nervously, and walked around behind Princess Ruyin, not daring to say a word, always feeling as if someone was spying on them in the dark night, creepy and frightening... …

The autumn night is cool and thin, and the dew is deeper, and everyone seems to be preoccupied.

Among the winding corridors and forests, it was pitch black everywhere, and everyone's footsteps were light, blurred in the afterglow of the lanterns.

Princess Ruyin's voice suddenly rang out: "Listen to what my mother said, you two are going out of the palace?"
