"What exactly did you do to Dali? Why did they obediently surrender to Nan Qi?"
An Yu looked at Xie Weixing curiously. She had been thinking about this issue for two months. One month after Le He ascended the throne, Dali suddenly surrendered to the Southern Qi Dynasty. All countries were shocked and at a loss. Fortunately, the northern wing was controlled by Lai Yingying, who paid flawless attention. Although Zhongyou wanted to rebel, he had the will but was powerless. Only Northern Qi and Dajin are left. Dajin and Southern Qi are separated by two countries. Although they are a little surprised, they have no practical ideas. Only Northern Qi is alone now...
"Haven't you figured it out yet?"
Xie Weixing lay on his back on the grass, resting his right hand on the back of his head, squinting slightly, enjoying the tranquility of this moment. An Yu was lying like this originally, but she still couldn't figure it out and got up with some resentment, breaking his peace at the moment.
"There are two reasons why Dali and Nan Qi went to war, one is superficial and the other is actual. As long as these two reasons are solved, what reason do they have to continue to waste time?"
"But even if they don't go to war, why is Dali willing to succumb to Southern Qi?" An Yu immediately grasped the key point.
Xie Weixing sat up: "Everything in the world is unfavorable. As long as we seize the benefits that Dali needs, who will care who succumbs or not? Dali has gone through wars, and the holy objects have never been returned, and they have long since ceased to exist. It's just a need It’s just a suitable opportunity.”
"So Le He is taking advantage of the situation? Did he hit the right target?" An Yu was surprised.
"You can say that. Besides, the saint of Dali is now the Queen of Southern Qi, so Dali has nothing to say."
"Ah, I can't tell, Le He is really shameless!" An Yu murmured to himself.
All people in Dali believe in the Holy Religion, and the Holy Religion's prestige is even stronger than that of the royal family. If the royal family does anything against heaven, the Holy Religion has the right to decide the life or death of the royal family. However, the sacred object was lost in the Holy Religion. It was originally a matter of secret investigation, but someone spread it out, causing internal and external troubles in Dali.
"Their sacred object is..."
"The sixth volume of the Heavenly Book!"

Coming to Nandu again made An Yu feel a lot of emotions. Sometimes people are really unreasonable animals. When I was here, I always thought about how to escape from here, but now there is no need to escape. The former prime minister's home has been confiscated and he has been exiled for three thousand miles. The people he once knew are now separated. thing.
Xie Weixing did not take An Yu back to Xie Mansion, but stayed in a quiet small courtyard. The yard is not big, but it is two hundred square meters, which is enough for them to live in. Besides, I don’t know how long they can stay here...
"Get some rest first. I'll go to the palace in the evening." After Xie Weixing ordered the housekeeper and the others to pack their things, he turned to An Yu and said.
She thought for a while and said, "Can I follow?"
"Okay. But it needs to be modified."
The palace in Nandu has been baptized, and it has a sense of vicissitudes. However, the cold walls and tall and solid doors cannot hide the bloodstains inside, because all of this proves the bleakness of the time and witnesses. Looking forward to the coming of light in the next moment.
"You'll be waiting outside the door for a while and don't wander around, okay?"
An Yu nodded, secretly raised his head and glanced at the figure in front of him. At this time, they were following a young eunuch towards Qinzheng Palace. The scenery along the way is extremely beautiful, and with the white moonlight, it is even more dreamlike.
"Please thank the young master for waiting here. Rong Xiao goes in and makes an announcement."
"Yeah." Xie Weixing nodded slightly.
Not long after, the eunuch from before came out. Watching Xie Weixing enter, An Yu retreated to the side and waited quietly for the opportunity... Guards on both sides were waiting, but as long as they didn't force their way inside, these people were basically just decorations. An Yu saw the opportunity, moved slowly, turned a corner, and immediately walked from another corridor.
This is the Qinzheng Palace belonging to the emperor. If you go to the south, it will be the harem, and if you go to the northeast... it should be there!
"Who are you?" A high-pitched voice came, and An Yu's whole body tensed up and he went into a state of alert.
"little..."
"Come on, come on, take this bowl of soup to the Magnolia Palace!"
Before An Yu could react, someone forced a wooden plate into her hand. She took a closer look and saw a bowl on the tray with a cup of soup next to it. Her mind changed, Magnolia Palace? Isn't that palace in the northeast the Magnolia Palace? After thinking about it, she immediately nodded and said: "Yes, yes, the little one will definitely be delivered!"
After that, he turned around and headed northeast. The eunuchs behind him were not suspicious. The palace was so big, it was inevitable that there would be one or two people who could not recognize him. Besides, it was night again, and An Yu was wearing a boy's uniform. Although there were many differences between the boy's uniform and the eunuch's uniform, at this time, he was confused by that The eunuch ignored her, so she escaped.
An Yu was not afraid of anyone seeing him while carrying the tray, and broke into the Magnolia Palace smoothly.
"Cough cough cough—" An Yu heard coughing from inside before he even got close. She pushed the door open gently and went in, only to see the person inside asking weakly, "Is it Lan'er? Please give me the medicine quickly!"
medicine? An Yu lowered his head and looked, was it this in his hand? Seems to be…
"Ahem, you, cough, what are you doing there? Why don't you bring it to me quickly?"
An Yu poured out the medicinal soup and walked slowly inside. Lifting the bead curtain, An Yu could see clearly the person who had just spoken. She was truly a beautiful lady!
Delicate and white skin, long hair hanging loosely on her smooth shoulders, her face was very pale, but to her surprise, her eyes were exactly the same as Yu Chen's, looking at a certain place aimlessly. , this is... blind? !
"Lan'er?"
An Yu was startled and quickly brought the soup in front of her. She took the bowl, raised her head and swallowed it.
"Lan'er, please help me take out the box under the bed!"
An Yu saw that her expression was very bad, and wanted to persuade her to calm down for a while, but he was worried that his trap would be exposed as soon as he opened his mouth, so he had to lie silently under the bed and take out the iron box inside. What does this woman want to do? Could it be that the Book of Heaven is in this
According to Xie Weixing, the person who lives in the Magnolia Palace is none other than the saint that Dali married, who is also the current queen of Southern Qi. She and Xie Weixing entered the palace this time precisely to find the sixth volume of the Book of Heaven.
"Ahem—uhhh—"
An Yu was lost in thought when the queen's voice suddenly went out of tune. She looked up and saw that the queen who had been talking just now was strangling her neck tightly, moaning and twitching. An Yu was shocked and looked around. There was no one around at this time. What on earth was going on? Someone wants to harm her
No, if she doesn't leave, I'm afraid she won't be able to leave even if she wants to!
"Lan, Laner...save, save me—"
Intermittent sounds came, disturbing An Yu's thoughts. How to open the box? An Yu opened his mouth and suddenly caught a glimpse of a hairpin that was neither gold nor wood on the queen's head. As a country, are you still worried about not having enough gold and silver? Why wear such a special hairpin? She quietly dodged the emperor's twitching body and gently stretched out her hand...
"You are not Lan'er!"
The outstretched hand was suddenly grabbed, and An Yu frowned. Why is this woman so strong
"I am indeed not a Lan'er. Someone asked me to give you this medicine just now. I didn't know what was in it just now, but now I know it."
She sympathized with the person in front of her, but sympathy didn't mean she would save her. Besides, it was obvious that she was in a state of poisoning. She has never studied medicine, and she is not an expert in detoxification. Even if she wants to save her, she is determined but unable to do so.
"Ha, hahaha -" Upon hearing this, the queen raised her head and burst into laughter. She just smiled, and a trace of bright red blood slowly flowed from the corner of her mouth. "I didn't expect that so many people want my life! Hahaha—"
While she was distracted, An Yu broke free from her restraints and took off the hairpin from her head. With a "pop" sound, the delicate little lock outside the iron box opened! She opened the box carefully and found a parchment lying quietly inside. She picked it up and saw that it was the seventh volume!
"Who are you?" the queen asked blankly.
"I'm just a passerby. I'll just borrow the things for a while. Say goodbye!"
Now that the things have been obtained, there is no use in leaving them behind. An Yu grabbed the seventh volume of Fengzhong's broken book and turned around. As soon as he left, many guards came in...
While wandering around, An Yu finally discovered a troublesome thing - she was lost!
If I had known that I would leave in such a hurry, I should have brought that map with me more often! As we age, our memory deteriorates. The place where she was at this time was a place overgrown with grass, facing a palace that had been abandoned for a long time. The signboard hung diagonally on the palace door, crumbling. Despite this, An Yu still recognized the three characters engraved on the sign - Hanyue Palace.
What is this place? Could it be the legendary cold palace
After Lehe came to power, he changed the names of the palaces in the harem, which meant replacing the old and welcoming the new.
"There are traces here, the assassin is here!"
Just as An Yu was standing in front of the palace hesitating, a guard's roar came from the distance. She felt anxious and ran towards the cold palace. But because the dust was too heavy, she had to erase her traces. As soon as she hid it, a group of people came running over there.
"Commander Li, this is the Cold Palace. There may be assassins hiding here. I will take people in to search!"
"Okay, everyone else will go over there."
"yes!"
An Yu did not enter the palace, but hid in a big tree next to the palace, where he could vaguely see below. Because she was hiding behind a big tree, it was a bit difficult to find her.
"Lord Commander, the Emperor has summoned you to Qinzheng Palace—" Not long after, a small figure ran over panting and said to Commander Li.
"It turns out to be Eunuch Huang. What's the important thing your Majesty has summoned me to do? I'm searching for the assassin's whereabouts. He must be hiding around here." (To be continued.)
