The night in late spring is not as cold as it used to be.
The imperial city of Huaijing is located in a water town in the south of the Yangtze River, so it is unbearably hot in summer. Even in late spring, the nights are a bit unbearable.
Carrying a palace lantern, Jinli walked through Dongyin Avenue without haste, and entered the East Fourth Palace through the Yaoguang Gate. Once inside, it was the palace road Tai'a Road. After leaving Tai'a Road, there is a north-south Moxie Road, which is far away from the Ganjiang Road in the West Fourth Palace.
There are four palaces on the west side of Mo Xiedao, the largest of which is Jianjia Palace, which is also the destination of Jinli's trip.
It was late at this moment, but the side door of Jian Jia Palace was still open, and the well-trained eunuch was waiting respectfully by the door, so it was not surprising to see Jin Li coming. He saluted silently, and then took the first step to lead Jinli the way.
"Is the imperial concubine okay recently?" Jin Li asked in a low voice, before smiling, she laughed first, making people feel like a spring breeze, very comfortable.
The little eunuch didn't dare to raise his head, so he replied in a low voice: "Thanks to my aunt for your concern, my mother is in better health recently."
With that said, he has arrived in front of the main hall.
Although the little eunuch was not seen along the way to ask others to deliver the message, Man Chen, the first lady of Jianjia Palace, had already been waiting in front of the palace, waiting to receive the first lady Jin Li who was in front of the emperor.
"Miss Jinli." Man Chen saluted, "Your Majesty has already fallen asleep after drinking the medicine."
Jin Li narrowed her eyes slightly: "It seems that I came here by accident."
Man Chen didn't comment on this, but suggested with a paralyzed face: "Young lady is also tired from walking at night, go to Dong Nuan Pavilion to rest for a while."
With that said, he made way for Jin Li and invited her into the hall.
The moment Jinli lifted her foot, she looked back at the dark sky. Tonight, there is no moon.
The imperial palace, the front palace, and the altar dedicated to the altar.
A black shadow passed silently, and lightly landed on one of the nine statues around the altar. She hides in the shadows and no one notices her.
Shen Yuqing pulled the brim of her hat and hid her face deeper.
The disciples of Mingjiao in the Western Regions are the kings of assassination in the desert, and they are good at escaping, stealth and assassination. Now being forced to stay in the Jiangnan Imperial City, although a little uncomfortable, it is still a novelty.
Shen Yuqing waved her hand, and a chain suddenly shot out, about the thickness of a thumb, firmly fastened to the corner of the eaves beside it, with only a slight sound. Before she had time to attract the attention of the imperial guards, Shen Yuqing had already retracted her chains, catapulted over, jumped to the eaves in an instant, then tapped on the glazed tiles, and disappeared without a trace.
This is Mingjiao's qinggong golden rainbow hitting the hall.
As a former NPC in the game, Shen Yuqing's use of lightness kungfu is superb, and it is by no means comparable to ordinary players. Moreover, she has a good friend, Sister Pao, to help transform the iron chain, otherwise such a thin chain would not be able to withstand the violent pull.
Shen Yuqing quickly crossed the East Palace and the Sumei Palace of the West Empress Palace, jumped from the eaves of Xianlu Palace into Jianjia Palace, and returned to the bedroom through the back window.
The big lady Man Xing has been waiting for a long time.
"Your Majesty." Man Xingban knelt and changed Shen Yuqing's clothes.
As an assassin, most Mingjiao disciples don't like night clothes, but prefer loose white robes. Although it is easy to expose, it also looks very different.
Man Xing took off the white robe for the imperial concubine, ignored the fine clothes she was wearing, and directly took a set of middle clothes and a set of outer skirts for her to put on, and then tied a simple bun for her.
"What?" Shen Yuqing raised her eyebrows while taking off the armguard on her left forearm.
Wearing a skirt at night to meet guests
Man Xing covered her lips and smiled lightly: "Sister Jinli who is beside His Majesty is here."
I'm afraid they came to urge her mother to "recover" quickly.
Speaking of which, it has been a month since the imperial concubine said she was sick. His Majesty the Emperor should be upset too.
Shen Yuqing was not surprised.
She reached an agreement with the emperor that she would help deal with the restless women in the harem, and the emperor would do whatever she wanted. Even if she ran out to play every night, as long as she showed up on time when she was supposed to, and was serious about who she should be angry with, the emperor would not care about her at all. Not only did he ignore it, but he also opened the door to her convenience.
However, Shen Yuqing has not worked for a month.
Speaking of which, Shen Yuqing didn't take this job at all, but the emperor promised to give her a million taels of gold and the protection of power, so that she can walk sideways in the whole Dayan in the future. As a Jianghu woman who just came here and didn't know anything about it, and accidentally let go of a concubine who escaped marriage, Shen Yuqing decided to accept this cooperation.
So, she replaced the imperial concubine whose appearance and name were exactly the same as hers, and "married" into the palace.
It has been a year since now.
Thinking about it, the real noble concubine has already slept and flew with her sweetheart, maybe the baby is finished.
Of course, the main reason is that there are top cat food and beautiful girls in the palace, Shen Yuqing likes these.
She casually handed the armguard to Man Xing, and touched the cat sleeping soundly in the nest next to her, feeling extremely satisfied.
Then.
She couldn't help but leaned over and rubbed her face against the cat.
Master Cat's little paw scowled impatiently and pushed him away.
It's really annoying to disturb the cat's sleep.
Concubine Shen didn't care about the indifference of her adults, she kissed the little paw, stood up calmly amidst the coughing of the stars, straightened her clothes, and walked out Shi Shiran. It's time to meet that Jinli girl, this person is not so easy to deal with.
As soon as she entered the East Nuan Pavilion, Jin Li stood up and saluted.
"The imperial concubine and empress are blessed and safe."
Shen Yuqing sat down at the top: "Why is Miss Jinli here in the middle of the night?"
It seems that the emperor is very unhappy.
Normally, when he asked Jinli to pass on the message, he would come to the market in broad daylight, eager to announce to the world his "favor" for the imperial concubine. Then, the women in the palace would start to yell at Shen Yuqing crazily like chicken blood, hoping to pull down the imperial concubine who favored the harem.
It's a pity that the imperial concubine and His Majesty have a stronger love than gold, and they can't provoke them.
Last time, there was a little nobleman who was short-sighted, and he said something sour about the imperial concubine and empress by virtue of being favored, and he was thrown into the cold palace directly.
Just kidding, His Majesty the Emperor spent so much money and promised so many benefits to keep him, not to make these women offend Shen Yuqing. Shen Yuqing is of great use, and it's best not to annoy her, otherwise Mingjiao's father who comes and goes without a trace will kill him and her in minutes.
The fact is that none of the hidden guards trained by the emperor can beat Shen Yuqing. No, it should be said that once they fought, they couldn't even find Shen Yuqing.
Jinli and the entire Jianjia Palace are insiders of the cooperation between the emperor and the imperial concubine. Especially the maids and eunuchs in Jianjia Palace, who were originally trusted by the emperor, but now...
Shen Yuqing touched the Gu insect tattoo on her wrist that could only be revealed with a special potion, and smiled without saying a word.
Thanks to my good friend Du Jie who once "selflessly provided" (snatched by Shen Yuqing) Gu worms, relying on these little guys, she directly turned most of the palace people in Jianjia Palace into her vassals, and she didn't worry about betrayal at all . Only a few are left, all of which are pawns buried by other concubines, waiting to be used in the future.
Standing in the center of the Nuan Pavilion, Jinli slowly raised her head and looked directly at Shen Yuqing: "Your Majesty has been ill for a long time, and His Majesty was very worried, so he sent a servant to visit."
Shen Yuqing picked up the teacup and took a sip: "Thank you, Your Majesty. I recently said that I'm not sick. I wonder what's going on in the palace?"
Seeing Shen Yuqing being so upbeat, Jin Li heaved a sigh of relief.
It is good for the imperial concubine to cooperate, if she is beaten to death and unwilling to continue to work, she is a little maid with only "weak" martial arts, she can't do anything to her.
"Everything is fine in the palace, but Concubine Shu has recently raised a new pet, so she may not be able to play with your grown-up, Madam."
——Well, that's right, the cheating Shen Yuqing named her cat "Master".
Everyone complained silently, but His Majesty the Emperor acquiesced, so no one dared to have an opinion.
After saying what she had to say, Jin Li quickly left.
Shen Yuqing's slender fingers tapped lightly on the table. Her nails were not as excessively long as those of other women in the harem, only a little bit, and they were beautifully manicured. The cardamom dyed light red is very nice on the pale fingertips, and the color is not too exaggerated.
Shen Yuqing didn't want to dye it at first, but adults like to lick her fingers, fearing that cardamom would be bad for cats. However, she later found out that her Persian cat is a product of the materialization of game data, which is fundamentally different from ordinary cats and not so delicate, so she felt relieved.
The women in the harem don't wear make-up, fancy clothes, dyed nails, or jewelry to look like freaks. After Shen Yuqing was looked at strangely by a group of women for half a month, she finally compromised a little bit.
"Your Majesty." Man Xing brought up a cup of hot cheese, "Drink it while it's hot, and go to rest after drinking it."
Shen Yuqing took it, and poured it boldly, and was stared at by Man Xing. Her mother tried to drank and shredded mutton every day, which was really helpless.
Shen Yuqing didn't care about her sharp eyes, put down the bowl, and asked casually, "Is there any activity in the Palace of Tomorrow?"
If not, he would have to get up early in the morning to greet the queen.
The emperor sent people to remind her several times, and Shen Yuqing couldn't be lazy anymore. And this time Jinli's words mean Shen Yuqing to deal with Concubine Shu, this is the main task at present, and there should be no delay.
I don't know how this concubine Shu's natal family offended the emperor in the previous dynasty, and the emperor wanted to stab her in the back like this.
"Tomorrow afternoon, the empress will hold a flower appreciation party in the imperial garden, and the early lotuses in Taiye Lake will bloom." Man Xing thought for a while and said.
Shen Yuqing immediately made a decision: "Flower viewing party, I'm going, remember to prepare."
"Yes." Man Xing responded immediately.
Thinking of Concubine Shu's unlucky appearance, Shen Yuqing smiled gloatingly, and began to think about how to hate Concubine Shu tomorrow.
This woman is soft and weak every day, wiping her tears at every turn, and the white lotus is very good at pretending. It's a pity that Shen Yuqing hated fake white lotus the most in her life, she had suffered a lot from this kind of person.
She couldn't beat the white lotus she met before, but now she can take care of this one. After finally waiting for the emperor to give her a chance to deal with Concubine Shu openly, Shen Yuqing didn't have to restrain herself anymore. She only used words to sting two or three sentences like before, which was really not enough.
