In the dim night, the inside and outside of the palace were brightly lit, and the lanterns were in full bloom. Inside the palace, the hall was full of guests and the atmosphere was strong. It should have been a time of drinking wine, but at this time it was exceptionally quiet.
Everyone's attention was drawn to one place.
There is a three-sided bead curtain gauze screen at a corner, and the gauze screen is slim, with a silhouette reflected on three sides.
The silhouette is enchanting, and it moves into a coherent dance.
The dancing posture is light, reflected on the gauze screen, as if it is integrated with the gauze screen, the dancing posture is dancing, and the silhouette is like jumping on the gauze screen, vivid and vivid.
Fu Yujun was only focused on the gauze screen because of the Muguo Emperor, but seeing this situation, he couldn't help but be absorbed in all his thoughts.
He was curious about the person who can dance this dance, what kind of peerless beauty it is.
He imagined that this person must have a peerless appearance, a proud figure, a cloyingly sweet voice, and a docile and well-behaved temperament.
Thinking of this, Fu Yujun is full of expectations for the people behind the gauze screen.
The silhouette is sometimes elegant like a fairy, and sometimes enchanting and charming.
As for the person behind the gauze screen, sometimes the sleeves flutter to make the silhouette appear dusty, but sometimes the waist swings to make the silhouette coquettish and charming.
Under the interlacing of light and shadow, it was hard to tell for a while whether this dancing posture was more elegant and charming, or more charming and provocative. .
Amazement flashed repeatedly in Fu Yujun's eyes, and he suddenly understood the reason why the emperor of Muguo looked down on the three beauties he brought.
With such a peerless beauty, no one should really look down on her.
Thinking in this way, Fu Yujun saw the silhouette make a last turn on the screen, and then the person behind the screen knelt down on the ground, appearing docile and well-behaved.
The dance is over.
That person is about to come out and walk out of the screen!
Seeing this, Fu Yujun couldn't help standing up, he couldn't wait to welcome the beauty out of the gauze screen, eager to see her peerless grace for the first time.
However, after saluting, the beauty turned around and left the banquet.
All that was left to Fu Yujun was an imaginative back view.
"This..." Fu Yujun was puzzled. According to Muguo's practice, shouldn't this woman come out to salute and bid farewell to the Muguo's emperor after performing arts? Why did this beauty just leave
Didn't this mean that Emperor Muguo was not taken seriously? Can the Emperor Muguo bear it
Fu Yujun couldn't help looking at the emperor on the high seat, but saw that his expression was as usual, with soft brows and satisfaction in his eyes, without the slightest anger after being underestimated.
Fu Yujun's eyes flashed, and he vaguely understood something in his heart. It seems that this beauty's departure was acquiesced by the king, or it was deliberately ordered. The emperor of Muguo didn't want the peerless beauty to be public here, so he wanted to hide it...
Thinking of this, Fu Yujun's eyes were full of regret, but also seemed unwilling.
Perhaps Fu Yujun's eyes were too earnest, the emperor also turned his head to look at him, and his eyes met. The emperor was displeased with Fu Yujun's rudeness, so he opened his eyes first, and then looked at the prime minister as a signal. Drinking wine, he stepped forward to get closer to Fu Yujun.
"Prince, what do you think of my silhouette dance? It was originally a dance I wanted to dance for the prince last night, but it was destroyed by a reckless woman. Today, it can be fully presented in front of the prince."
Hearing the words, Fu Yujun came back to his senses and lowered his eyes. It seems that today's dance was used to save yesterday's scene, but this time it was saved very successfully. Fu Yujun was not stingy with praise, and replied with a smile: "Muguo's song and dance Really exciting!"
It's just that compared to this wonderful song and dance, he wants to know the front of the back, the true face of the silhouette on the gauze screen...
Fu Yujun twirled the wine glass in his hand thoughtfully, suddenly raised it and drank it down, he had already made up his mind.
Inside Ningxuan Palace
Ling Xiao took off the dance clothes, changed back into eunuch clothes, and stepped out of Ningxuan Palace. Although the emperor said that he didn't have to go there after the performance was over, Ling Xiao always felt that if he had been waiting in the palace, After the banquet, what must be waiting is the arrival of the emperor.
And the emperor's arrival was the last thing he expected at this time.
The emperor was too sexually interested in him during this time.
He had to find a way to make the emperor less sexually interested in him a little bit.
Ling Xiao sighed, his mind was full of worries.
Suddenly, a blue afterimage flashed in front of his eyes, which startled Ling Xiao, but when he saw it clearly, he didn't see any shadow.
Ling Xiao blinked, thinking that he was dazzled, but after thinking about it, he felt something was wrong.
The palace is heavily guarded, how could there be a blue shadow
Could it be an assassin? With a flash in Ling Xiao's eyes, he recalled the direction in which Lan Ying disappeared.
leading to...
Ling Xiao looked sideways, it was Condensation Palace!
Ling Xiao suddenly came to his senses, a person flashed in his mind, that person happened to like to wear blue clothes, with high martial arts skills to come and go freely in the palace, he knew who it was in his heart, he couldn't help but sneered and rushed to the Condensation Palace.
He said, Mo Qi was in trouble, how could the flower protector not move!
The Condensation Palace is in an abandoned corner of the palace, dark and gloomy.
When Ling Xiao arrived here, he only saw two dilapidated lanterns hanging on both ends of the plaque at the entrance of Condensing Palace, the candlelight flickered faintly inside, and the large golden characters on the plaque had peeled off the paint, making it look dim and irrelevant.
The cold wind hits everywhere, bringing the chirping of insects at night, which makes people shudder.
Ling Xiao swallowed, raised his head and looked inside for a few times, it was deep and dark, and it didn't seem like there was any shadow of a living person.
He bravely walked in, and entered the inner palace in the dark.
Inside the palace, there was only one place that was lit, and voices could be heard faintly there, Ling Xiao slowly moved closer to it.
"Brother Lan Wei, why didn't you help me yesterday?" As soon as he got closer, he heard Mo Qi crying.
Ling Xiao curled his lips in disgust, and looked through the window to see the situation inside.
Lan Wei, dressed in blue, wiped away Mo Qi's tears with pity. From Ling Xiao's perspective alone, Mo Qi looked haggard.
"Lan Wei is incompetent." Lan Wei blamed herself.
Hearing this, Mo Qi cried even more sadly: "You just let me be locked up here by them."
"There is nothing to eat or live here, and there is no one there. It is pitch black at night, and it takes a long time to find even a lamp."
Mo Qi complained, Lan Wei felt distressed when she heard it, she couldn't help but looked at her affectionately by turning her shoulders and said: "Come with me, Qi Qi, I will take you out of the palace, change your identity, and we will live a new life, even though I am not the emperor , I can’t give you what you want, but at least I won’t let you suffer from hunger and cold here.”
Hearing this, Mo Qi's gaze wandered, and she couldn't help but stop crying. She moved slightly, twisted and struggled with Lan Wei's hands and refused: "I don't, I... I like the emperor."
"You like? What do you like about him? You've only seen him twice." Lan Wei was also puzzled.
Mo Qidao: "He is wise and powerful, tall and handsome, with a wave of his hand, all officials kneel down, and when he gets angry, he can kill anyone! As long as he likes him, he can get the best things in the world..."
Lan Wei was taken aback for a moment, and looked at Mo Qi in astonishment: "This... I don't like it."
He murmured, but Mo Qi was immersed in her own imagination and didn't hear it.
As if thinking of the beauty, Mo Qi raised her smile, but seeing her current situation, she suddenly became lonely again, no, she must not stay here.
Thinking about it, Mo Qi couldn't help but cast her calculating eyes on Lan Wei, she raised her eyebrows, and leaned softly into Lan Wei's arms.
Lan Wei was startled, her heart skipped a beat, a little overwhelmed, she couldn't help beaming with joy: "Qiqi, you are..."
"Brother Lan Wei, help me, help me get out of here, intercede for me, ask the emperor to let me go out, talk to the prime minister, and ask the prime minister to intercede for me, as long as the emperor is willing to give me a chance and see me, I will I will definitely make the emperor fall in love with me."
Lan Wei heard the words, her heart was bitter and complicated, she couldn't help but sighed leisurely, and then she heard Mo Qi coquettishly say: "Brother Lan Wei, can you promise me? Promise me, okay?"
After speaking, Mo Qi started to sob again, and Lan Wei finally softened her heart and said: "Okay, I promise you. I will definitely rescue you."
When Mo Qi heard this, she buried herself in Lan Wei's arms with a proud smile, and then she emphasized: "Brother Lan Wei, you will help me to intercede tomorrow, I don't want to stay in this place for a moment."
Saying that, Mo Qi looked around, and frowned in disgust: "No, I don't want to stay for a moment, Brother Lan Wei, you go now, go and intercede for me now, and beg the emperor to let me go!"
Mo Qi got up from Lan Wei's arms and pushed Lan Wei, Lan Wei remained motionless, looking at Mo Qi sadly: "Qi Qi, listen to me, this matter is not as simple as you think, don't mention it I, father, are now having a difficult time in the court because of you and me, if I mention you in front of the emperor at this time, I am afraid that not only will I not be able to help you, but it will make father even more difficult."
Mo Qi was taken aback when she heard the words, then she frowned and looked at Lan Wei: "What do you mean?!"
"Are you saying that I have dragged down the prime minister? Do you mean that you don't want to help me?!"
"No, I mean now is not the right time, you have to be patient and wait for the right opportunity." Lan Wei explained.
But Mo Qi couldn't listen at all, as long as she thought of nesting in this ghost place in her mind, it was like thousands of insects and ants gnawing at her heart, she couldn't stand it, she was mad, and suddenly pushed Lan Wei away He shouted: "I think you just don't want to care about me! You only have the chancellor's mansion in your heart but never me! The prime minister does whatever he says! Why do you just listen to him like this? He's just an old man who has stepped into a coffin half of his body !"
Realizing that she had said something she shouldn't have said, Mo Qi suddenly stopped talking, but Lan Wei had already heard it all. He stared at Mo Qi in astonishment, and asked in disbelief: "What are you talking about? Qi Qi, is that my father."
Mo Qi was silent, gritted her teeth for a while and said softly: "I'm sorry, Brother Lan Wei, I'm just impatient, I didn't mean to disrespect your father, I..."
Lan Wei narrowed her eyes, her eyes filled with sorrow: "Since Qiqi entered the palace, you have changed..."
"I haven't changed, Brother Lan Wei, I'm just in a hurry..." Mo Qi wanted to explain.
Lan Wei shook his head, but expressed that he didn't want to hear it. He reached out and touched Mo Qi's hair, and said sadly: "Qi Qi, I will save you, and I will save you if I risk my life, but you You really have to calm down, don't let yourself become so crazy... you have a good rest, I'm leaving first."
"...I..." Mo Qi wanted to say something, but Lan Wei had already left through the window.
Ling Xiao looked at Mo Qi who was stomping in frustration in the room, closed his eyes and thought for a while, then turned and followed Lan Wei.
After following for a few steps, the blue figure in front suddenly disappeared. Ling Xiao stepped forward to check in astonishment, but suddenly a cold sword stabbed at his neck, chilling.
"Ling Xiao! Enemy's road is so narrow!"
