Emperor's Red Makeup: The Duke is too black

Chapter 135 Nantong's Strategy
On the second day, Xuan Luo hurried back to Qianque Palace with Meteor and Feiyun. After returning to Qianque Palace, Zi Yi and Lu Yi were ushered in. A refreshing breeze.

"My subordinates see that the palace lord's complexion is good. Presumably, the injuries he suffered should have healed slowly. The speed is indeed astonishing." Qingfeng was a little surprised when he saw Xuan Luo for the first time, and then he understood What, looking at her eyes became more and more strange.

"Meteor's medical skills are good." Xuan Luo reflexively placed his super healing ability on Meteor's head.

"I can't see it. I haven't seen you in half a month. Meteor, your medical skills have improved to this point? Well, in this case, you can challenge those strange people in Ghost Valley, and add some face to my Qianque Palace." Qingfeng shook Fan Zi followed behind Xuan Luo, but looked at Meteor beside him with a smile.

Meteor glanced sideways and glared at him, "Stop mocking me, who doesn't know that the palace lord is able to—"

A sharp gaze fell lightly, and Meteor quickly covered his mouth, for fear that if he said one more word, the palace lord would sew his mouth shut.

Withdrawing his warning gaze, Xuan Luo suddenly asked: "How are you doing with what I asked you to do? I haven't seen you in half a month, Qingfeng, you are getting more and more gossip. If you don't get things done well, I think I should send you I went to see the Kingdom of Jin."

The tone was light, but there was a sense of threat in it.

Qingfeng naturally heard it, and smiled silently in his heart for a moment, is the palace master becoming angry from embarrassment?

But, can the Palace Master really control someone like Huangfu Yao?He thought to himself, wondering if he should stop Yi Er or not, otherwise the Palace Master would be at a disadvantage?
It is true that the palace lord is a genius when it comes to stratagems and tactics, but the IQ of the palace lord needs to be improved when it comes to adultery. After all, at this age, experience, and mentality, he is no match for the monstrous Duke Ding who has seen countless people.

"Qingfeng?" Xuan Luo snorted coldly, "What are you thinking, didn't you hear me asking you?"

Sensing that the Palace Master seemed to be angry, Qingfeng rolled his eyes, and hurriedly said: "Back to Palace Master, the subordinates have almost done the things that the Palace Master told me this time, but there is one thing that I didn't do very well, that is, the identity of that person. It seems that someone deliberately hid it, and the subordinates only know that the person is hiding in the Wuyue Mountain of the Dashi Kingdom after half a month of busy work."

"I can't find it or someone is deliberately stopping it?" Xuan Luo asked lightly, already sitting at the top of the front hall of Qianque Palace.

Qingfeng's eyes darkened, "All of them."

"So, this Shi Jiang is really related to the death of the late emperor?" Xuan Luo raised his eyebrows, unable to see the emotion in her eyes clearly.

"Yes."

"Huangfu Yao sent the Dragon Soul Guard over there, do you have any news about the Dragon Soul Guard?" Xuan Luo suddenly thought of this and couldn't help asking.

Back then, she owed Huangfu Yao a favor for Shi Jiang, but she didn't know if the Dragon Soul Guard of Duke Dingguo's mansion was really as powerful as the rumors said.

"The whereabouts of the Dragon Soul Guard are very mysterious. This subordinate once met Long San, the captain of the third team. I have to say that the Dragon Soul Guard of Dingguo Mansion is indeed very powerful." Qingfeng sighed with respect in his eyes.

Meteor looked at Qingfeng in surprise, "You kid never praises others easily, why, is Long San really that powerful? Even you, Qingfengshi, have to show this look."

"There is a specialization in surgery, and I am good at using my brain." Qingfeng was not angry, but pointed to his head and smiled.

"You are deceitful." Meteor glanced away at him, and said again: "Looking at you, could it be that you didn't keep up with that Long San? Or did you make a move?"

Qingfeng nodded, then looked at Xuanluo, "Returning to Palace Master, that's true. That Long San not only has excellent lightness skills, but also seems to have a high attainment in tracking and anti-tracking, and even received special training. On the one hand, the subordinates are indeed not his opponents, so that..."

"Needless to say, I know all about it." Xuan Luo rubbed a pair of small gold bracelets on his wrists, his expression remained unchanged, but his eyes looked a little strange.

Dragon Soul Guard is the biggest trump card in Huangfu Yao's hands. Of course, she believes in the strength of Dragon Soul Guard. However, it stands to reason that Huangfu Yao has been investigating the death of the late emperor. Why can't even he find Shi Jiang?

Or, he didn't want to find Shi Jiang at all, and now that she mentioned this person, he sent people to Dashi Country?

chaos!
The mind is really messed up!

"You mean, Long San has news about Shi Jiang, even more than you?" After a moment of silence, Xuan Luo's cold and domineering voice sounded from the hall.

Qingfeng does not have the ability of Long San. She admits that the Dragon Soul Guard is powerful, but the intelligence network of Qianque Palace controlled by Qingfeng is not good enough. How could it be...
"The subordinate is incompetent." Qingfeng lowered his head, waiting for punishment.

but--

After a long time, Xuan Luo just looked at the expressionless Feiyun, and said: "Feiyun has repeatedly violated my orders recently, and now I have a chance for you to take the blame and make meritorious deeds. I hope you will not let me down again."

Feiyun's tall body shook, and finally there was an expression called hope on his handsome face.

"This subordinate swears to die to complete the task!" He knelt down directly, with a respectful expression.

"Go, I will ask Hongyi to bring you the task, and you take her there."

"This—" Feiyun frowned reflexively.

"Huh? Could it be that you still want to disobey my order?" Xuan Luo raised his eyebrows, his eyes full of impatience.

"Your subordinate obeys!" Fei Yun knew that he had been causing displeasure to the Palace Mistress recently, whether it was because he was worried about her or Huangfu Yao deliberately framed her, but he was wrong.

From the very beginning, I shouldn't indulge myself to be tempted, and I never should!

Qingfeng looked at Feiyun's kneeling back, his eyes flickered, as if he understood something, "Palace Master, I have something important to report, can I see you alone?"

See you alone?
Xuan Luo raised his eyes, and probably knew what Qingfeng was going to say, so he nodded, "Feiyun, go down first, if you fail again this time, don't come back."

"Meteor, don't look at it, go and make the 'sugar pills' I ordered you to make immediately, and prepare the ingredients I asked you to prepare as well."

"Yes." Meteor bowed, turned and left, but Ying Ting's brows were slightly frowned.

Thinking of the things the palace wanted, his brows could not help but wrinkle even tighter.

It's not that those things are too rare for him to find, but that he really can't understand what the palace wants to do with those ordinary ingredients, not only ingredients, but also some cooking utensils, um, not just cooking utensils, but also some other things For recipes that he didn't understand, the Palace Master just asked him to follow the recipe, and didn't allow him to ask any more questions.

It's really strange what the palace lord is going to do.

"Zi Yi and Lu Yi are waiting for me at the palace gate, we will return to the palace in a while."

"Yes." Zi Yi and Lu Yi bowed and left slowly.

After everyone left, Xuan Luo waved his hand and signaled Qingfeng to sit down, "Let's talk."

Qingfeng was not hypocritical, she just sat under Xuan Luo's hands, and said straight to the point: "Palace Master is smart, he should know what Feiyun is thinking."

"nature."

It is because of knowing that Xuan Luo will be disappointed.

Feiyun is one of the four great ambassadors of the Qianque Palace, and has always been her right-hand man, but he is not in the right mind, how dare he have such thoughts for himself, how can she not be disappointed?
"Is it because the Palace Master knows his thoughts that he wants to send him out?" Qingfeng calculated Xuan Luo's intention and said.

"Well, he is a rare talent, and I don't want to lose a useful person because of this matter. Besides, Feiyun is my emissary of Qianque Palace after all. I am not a cold-blooded and heartless person. As long as he can figure it out, I can do it. Call him back."

"So, the palace lord deliberately asked him to take Hong Yi with him because he wanted..." Qingfeng flashed a sly look, although he didn't finish his sentence, but the meaning he wanted to express had already been achieved.

"That's right, you're a smart guy, you must have guessed Hongyi's thoughts on Feiyun a long time ago, and even if the two of you can't have anything, you still fulfilled Hongyi's wish." Very satisfied.

Hongyi is the most stable of the Seven Star Envoys, and she also hopes that she can get what she wants. After all, although this is a time and space of authority, she still has a little sense of equality in her heart.

If you can't get real justice and equality, then try to make everyone around you get the treatment they deserve.

"The palace lord's move can be regarded as the beauty of an adult." Qingfeng raised the corners of his mouth and said with a smile, "I wonder if the palace lord has thought about Concubine Shu?"

"Oh? What do you want to express?" Xuan Luo raised his eyebrows.

"My subordinates remember that the Palace Master promised Concubine Shu that day. Once you take charge, the first imperial decree will be to make her the empress. I wonder if the Palace Master still remembers this?"

"Remember." Xuan Luo nodded, pondered for a moment, and said: "It's not that I can't fulfill this promise. On the contrary, I plan to solve this matter in the near future. After all, a country cannot live without a king. Then the mother of this country is For the first thing to be settled, the Nan family should be waiting."

When mentioning the Nan family, thinking of that shrewd old guy, Xuan Luo's mouth curled up in a sarcasm. Did he really think that after Concubine Shu became the queen, he would be able to control the government?

Do you really think that she is still the bully little emperor back then?
Seeing the sneer at the corner of Xuan Luo's mouth, Qingfeng understood, "Palace Master wants to take this opportunity to completely disintegrate the power of the Nan family?"

"That's right." Xuan Luo glanced at him appreciatively, and continued: "Although the Nan family is not a military general, they have an extremely large network of relationships with Dayan's civil servants. What I'm worried about is that once Concubine Shu becomes empress, that old fox in Nantong will be unable to bear it anymore. Don't look at this court ceremony just to capture King Ning and expose the crimes of Empress Dowager Shengde. In fact, his arrangement is also—— "

Xuan Luo thought for a while, and added: "The clothes are seamless."

"How do you say that?" Qingfeng was puzzled, he didn't know much about the grand celebration ceremony. At that time, he was on the way back to Dayan from the Dashi Kingdom, but he only received a secret report from the Palace Master to come back quickly. When I came back, I encountered the palace lord taking the Divine Tower Order to exchange for Huangfu Yao, and even the two of them fell off the cliff.

He was too busy dealing with the ins and outs of this matter, and had to completely cover it up.

Xuan Luo propped his chin and said with a smile: "The family members of those civil servants."

Qingfeng suddenly realized, it turned out to be the case, maybe even the Empress Dowager Shengde didn't know that she was being played so viciously by Nantong, right?
