After a while, Shangguan Qian had no choice but to leave. He hugged Ouyang Jin deeply, and then opened the door. Looking into Yisan's sleepy eyes, he couldn't help but find it funny.

After turning around and glancing at Ouyang Jin, the two of them carefully left. Ouyang Jin, on the other hand, didn't see the figure of the voice as he closed the door with a solemn expression on his face.

When they were almost at the empress's chamber, a black shadow flashed in front of them, and Isao pulled Shangguan Qian along, leaning against the wall to confirm that the black shadow was gone.

As for Shangguan Qian, he was still a little afraid, because that person had walked out from the empress's chamber. If they had not coincidentally walked around the corner, they would have definitely been discovered.

The two of them looked at each other, then looked at the Queen's bedroom that was not lit at all. They could not help but feel puzzled, but they still quietly went back to their own rooms.

Both of them were in bed early. After sitting down, it was now time for Shangguan Qian'er to catch his breath and take big gulps of tea.

Then he lowered his voice and asked, "What do you think about that person's martial arts?"

She didn't know a thing about martial arts. It was just a coincidence that she could see that black shadow. As for that person's appearance, she couldn't tell at all.

Yi Shan also had a serious face. After a while, she said uncertainly, "That person's martial arts shouldn't be very high, but her qinggong is first-rate. Moreover, from her figure, I'm afraid …" A woman. "

A woman who knew martial arts?

Even Shangguan Qian was shocked. The most important thing was, who was this person who hid so deeply? Was he someone who wanted to harm the empress, or was he at the orders of the empress?

More importantly, who was she and what was her goal?

Shangguan Qian'er felt as if he was stuck in a whirlpool. Being tangled was not something she could see through alone.

Since he had appeared in the palace, he might as well start from the palace. After all, it wasn't easy to arrange for a person to enter the palace. At the very least, entering the palace alone would be extremely difficult.

With a solemn face, he went through all the people in the palace that he could remember until he arrived at Imperial Concubine Xiao.

"Do you think that person looks like Imperial Concubine Xiao?"

Imperial Concubine Xiao also knew martial arts. Moreover, she could be considered to have had some conflict with the empress and had some conflicts of interest. There was also a reason for her wanting to harm the empress.

"That person's martial arts should be above Imperial Concubine Xiao's. The most important thing is that she doesn't have too many worries, if it was Imperial Concubine Xiao, she would naturally not easily use martial arts. I watched her escape through the bamboo forest and didn't climb over the wall to walk down the path.

At this point, Shangguan Qian was also a little tired. Looking outside, which was about to light up, he said lightly, "Since you can't guess, then you should take care of this slowly. It's almost daybreak, you should also sleep here."

After saying that, she took off her clothes and shoes and moved into the room. It was not that she was slacking off, but she could guess what was going on just from her figure. It was simply impossible.

Yisan did not object and went to sleep as well.

Under the dark curtain, a woman in black said to a man in a hideous mask while cupping her hands, "Master, the matter has been settled."

The masked man was still indifferent, neither praising nor reprimanding. He only lightly nodded his head and then prepared to leave, as if he was waiting for this report.

However, no one knew that he was just trying to get a bit closer to a person, so he somehow ended up at the entrance of the palace.

"Mistress, do you have any other instructions?"

The man in black, who was originally looking in that direction and lost in his thoughts, was interrupted by the voice. He only tilted his head slightly and did not turn around, instead he said calmly, "What else do you want to do? Do you need my advice?"

Her voice was calm, like the evening breeze. When it blew on the face, it also felt cool. Unfortunately, the woman in black panicked and immediately kneeled down. "This subordinate deserves to die. Please punish me, Master."

After a long while, the masked man didn't say anything. He only gave a faint, cold snort before calling out, "Scram." He called the girl in black and immediately let out a sigh of relief. With a tap of his feet, he disappeared without even a word of thanks or farewell.

This time, she didn't dare to say anything else.

"Yan Si, how's the situation in the Turk?"

His voice never seemed to waver, and this time, it sounded as if he was speaking to the moist air. Only, as his voice faded, a man in black appeared out of thin air.

Unlike the woman before him, this man revealed his face. However, no matter who saw his face, they would involuntarily cry out and even faint. Aside from his pair of dark and clear eyes, there wasn't a single place that anyone would dare to look at.

His face was full of holes. The man was scarred and scarred. He wore a hideous mask, and even if this man in black didn't wear a mask, he was still more terrifying than those fierce green fangs.

He really did hope that he would wear a mask, but the man in front of him didn't show the slightest trace of fear. Instead, he quietly watched him and listened to his report.

Those low and rough words were torture even when one heard them. However, the masked man still had a solemn expression on his face without the slightest hint of displeasure. He had a bit more praise on his words, but no one knew what the terrifying man in black had said to him.

"It seems that Li Fengyi really isn't a simple person!"

The masked man in black only spoke lightly before waving his hand casually. The person who had appeared out of nowhere immediately vanished without a trace, without even a trace of sound.

However, that person called Yan Si placed the piece of news he was holding onto the neck of a leopard cat before truly leaving. These actions, the man wearing the mask didn't know about it at all.

Shangguan Qian'er did not know when he had woken up, but he felt that these past few days, he had been in a muddled state, or more accurately speaking, he had lost his head. This was something he should not have done, after all, he was in the Imperial Palace, and he could not be careless, but alas, no one had come to call for his.

After hastily eating lunch along with breakfast, he considered whether he should go to Imperial Concubine Xiao's palace to have a look. There was a palace that came to find her, and the reason was that Imperial Concubine Xiao invited her to tea.

The corners of Shangguan Qian's lips lifted slightly as he glanced at the lady who had his head lowered respectfully, but in his heart he felt mockery. She refused to believe that Li Fengyi had given Imperial Concubine Xiao the order to cause trouble for his.

The reason why he wanted to drink tea this time was probably to find trouble.

Shangguan Qian didn't answer immediately, instead glancing at the Yishan by his side, asking casually, "Is the Empress awake now?"

Although Yishan didn't know that there were some matters, she knew that Imperial Concubine Xiao must have deliberately caused trouble, so she smiled and said, "The Empress just woke up and was still talking about the princess."

Shangguan Qian gave her a faint smile. It seemed like he was too happy to be lying with Yishan. He then said to the palace maid with a troubled expression, "Then what do we do? I'm afraid we won't be able to leave the empress's side!"

The palace maid was obviously startled, but soon she lifted her head in a somewhat awkward manner. Then, as if she had realized something, she immediately lowered her head. Although her movements were quick, Shangguan Qian and Yi Shan still managed to see her appearance clearly.

Wasn't it the palace maid who deserved to be caned?

As expected of Shangguan Qian, Imperial Concubine Xiao had only done so to give him a blow, or perhaps to increase the stakes, but she was still reluctant to take the lives of the people around her. Furthermore, she should have been able to tell that it was done by Yi Shan.

"Princess, there are quite a few palace maids by the empress's side, and the empress won't hold up the princess for too long." Princess, there are quite a few palace maids by the empress's side, and the empress won't hold up the princess for too long.

He had said so much, but it was a pity that he didn't say anything useful at all. He just blocked off his own path so there was no excuse for him not to. He also belittled himself by saying that he was just a palace maid serving the empress, and a person who wasn't lacking at all.

In that case, even Yishan who was beside him had heard it and could not help but look with interest at the palace maid who still had her head buried. Shangguan Qian had never let anyone off with his words, there was no reason for him to continue being bullied.

"So it's like that …"

Sure enough, Shangguan Qian also lifted his eyelids leisurely, then loosened a fresh grape in his mouth. Looking at its satisfied look, it meant that he did not see the newcomer in his eyes at all.

She gracefully spat out the grape skin and said, "It's better if you go back and talk to the imperial concubine. His Majesty is awake now, and there's so many things going on in the palace. Little Qian should rather not drink tea."

It was still a light tone, but the meaning behind it was very clear. At this moment, it could be said that internal troubles and external troubles, and the Emperor had only just woken up. It really wasn't good for them to drink tea and chat.

Although he knew it was an excuse, the palace maid could not refute it, only feeling somewhat embarrassed and angry. Although his head was still lowered, Shangguan Qian could still feel her emotions fluctuating, but she did not care at all.

After a long while, the palace maid finally raised her head. Her eyes were full of unwillingness, but she dared not to say anything else. She then took her leave.

"I didn't expect Imperial Concubine Xiao to be such a two-faced person. Fortunately, she refused."

Shangguan Qian only glanced at her, before looking at the door that was wide open, saying passively, "Be careful."

Yi Shan pouted in frustration. It was just like this in the palace, she couldn't even talk.

Looking at her current appearance, Shangguan Qian could only smile helplessly. Although they were about the same age, she had a better understanding of the palace matters, and was more like a lady from the martial arts world.

He got up and closed the door, then looked at her and solemnly said, "Don't speak carelessly about these things, even if … It's true. "

There were even many things that Ish didn't know about.

Yi Shan was stunned for a moment, but then she nodded her head and heard Shangguan Qian saying helplessly, "However, I can't reject something like that once, not in a lifetime. Besides, I actually do want to go as well."

"Then you …"

"Naturally, I'll wait for her to invite me again."

As for the reason, Yi Shan finally understood. If that was the case, Imperial Concubine Xiao would definitely be flustered and exasperated. Then, the more secrets she exposed, the more anxious she became …
