It was needless to say that Bai Zhan Ke was most worried that the Empress Dowager would take action against Hua Muse when he set off for battle.

So far, he didn't know where to put the flower hibiscus.

But to bring a flower of hibiscus onto the battlefield was something he would never agree to.

"This Emperor is tired. Let's go to bed."

Bai Zhan kai knew that if he continued to discuss this issue with Hua Mu Jin, it would be endless.

Seeing the tired look on her face, Hua Mujiao opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but swallowed her words and finally nodded.

Not long after he lay down, he fell into a deep sleep.

In this period of time, Hua Mujin couldn't understand how tired Bai Zhan was.

But at least she knew he was really tired.

Ever since he knew Bai Zhan Ke, he had never appeared so exhausted in front of Hua Mujiao. In her eyes, being an emperor was not a good thing.

Looking at the sleeping Bai Zhan Ke, Hua Mu Jin's heart ached. She gently placed a mark on his cheek.

At the same time, within the Eternal Music Palace.

Inside the hall, under the curtain, two figures tightly intertwined together.

"Zi Chu, I, I can't take it anymore, really …"

"Be good, it's going to be ready soon …"

After the woman made a sound, the blending of the two bodies stopped.

Both of them were heavily gasping for breath as they laid on the bed.

Mu Qiu turned around, his face flushed as he looked at the man beside him. The corners of his mouth curled up in a contented and blissful smile.

Suddenly, the man sat up and began to dress.

"Zi Chu, didn't you say you're not worth it today? Why are you leaving again? "

His grandson glanced at Mu Qiu and said, "I'm not on duty, but I can't stay overnight at the Eternal Music Palace. If we were to be discovered, we'll both die."

Mu Qiu sat up slightly. He looked at the man dressed in clothes with an unhappy expression.

"It's not like you've spent the night in the Palace, what are you afraid of? In any case, those palace maids have already been sent away by me, so no one will know that you are in my palace.

His grandson Chu knew that Mu Qiu was slightly angry.

However, in his heart, he had countless ways to coax her not to be angry.

"That's true, but you have to be careful."

As he spoke, his grandson Chu sat on the edge of the bed and extended his hand to cover Mu Qiu's face.

"I know that you don't want me to leave, but this is the Imperial Palace after all. "Qiu'er, I won't let you down. Once the empress dowager has decided on the bigger picture, we'll be together forever."

His grandson's "I won't let you down" made Mu Qiu extremely happy.

However, what he said after that caused her to frown.

"Overall situation? Zi Chu, I know you're working for the empress dowager, there are many things that cannot be decided by you. No matter what the empress dowager wants to do, or what you want to help the empress dowager, I can only hope that you won't hurt Big Sister Jin or the Mu Clan. "

It was not a secret that the Empress Dowager and the Emperor opposed each other.

Mu Qiu knew about this as well.

As for her father, as the prime minister, he was someone close to the emperor both in public and in secret. It was the empress dowager who wanted to get rid of him as well.

"Qiu'er, you should know that your father is a big threat to the empress dowager's heart. I'm just a lowly imperial bodyguard, how could I decide what the empress dowager thinks? "And that Imperial Concubine Xi, how many times have I told you to cut down on her? Otherwise, the empress dowager would make a move on you sooner or later."

His grandson Chu was still worried about Mu Qiu. Before this, he had already told her that the empress dowager hated Xi Fei to the bones, and getting rid of her was only a matter of time.

If she continued to have a good relationship with Empress Dowager Xi, the empress dowager would probably not even let her off.

Moreover, right now, the empress dowager had already noticed the abnormal relationship between him and Mu Qiu. As for why the empress dowager didn't expose it, even her grandson Chu Feng wasn't too clear.

"I didn't do anything, why would the empress dowager attack me? What's more, Big Sister Jin treated me like my own sister, how could I break off our relationship? I can't do something so heartless and heartless. "

Looking at Mu Qiu, his grandson Chu Feng helplessly shook his head.

"Qiu'er, why are you so stupid? How do you know she thinks you're her sister, just in case she's using you? "

"Impossible!"

As soon as his grandson finished speaking, he was immediately rejected by Mu Qiu.

Mu Qiu was extremely clear about how Hua Mu Jin treated her.

"Zi Chu, you're working for the empress dowager, so many things can't be helped. I know, but if you really want to help the empress dowager hurt my father and Big Sister Jin, I won't forgive you."

Hearing Mu Qiu's words, his grandson Chu Feng's face darkened.

As far as he was concerned, that Hua Mu Jin was more important than him in Mu Qiu's heart. This made him feel extremely unhappy.

"I've said what I needed to say. I'll be leaving first."

With that, his grandson Chu stood up and disappeared from the hall.

"Zi Chu …"

Mu Qiu knew that his grandson Chu Tian was angry, but she said those words because she didn't want him to hurt Hua Mujiao and her family.

When his grandson, Chu, sneakily returned to the Dew Hall, just opened the door to his room, he was called out.

"Guard Sun, it's so late. Where did you go?"

The person who called for his grandson Chu was none other than the empress dowager's Senior Servant Qin.

His grandson, Chu, turned to face Senior Servant Qin respectfully. "I just went to the toilet. Senior Servant Qin called me, is there something you need?"

"The empress dowager has urgent matters to attend to. Guard Sun, please …"

Her Majesty summoned him?

In his heart, his grandson wasn't confident for a moment.

He didn't know why the empress dowager had summoned him at this time, but he had wanted to see something from her expression, but it was hard to tell from her indifferent expression.

"Since the empress dowager has summoned us, this subordinate doesn't dare slight you. Senior Servant Qin, please first."

Arriving at the palace, his grandson Chu knelt on the ground and bowed respectfully towards the empress dowager.

The empress dowager looked at him for a long time without saying a word.

After the cup of tea was finished, the empress dowager slowly opened her mouth and said, "Guard Sun, how long have you been following This Dowager?"

"In reply to the empress dowager, this subordinate has followed her for nearly six years."

The empress dowager's question made his grandson feel even more uneasy.

"Six years …"

With that, the empress dowager smiled. "Six years. It can't be said to be long, it can't be said to be short. This Dowager wants to ask, during these six years, how did This Dowager treat you? "

His grandson Chu lowered his head, not daring to look at the empress dowager's face.

"The empress dowager treats this subordinate extremely well. It's this subordinate's fortune to be able to stay by her side."

"For the past six years, Guard Sun has been quite loyal to This Dowager. Now that This Dowager has gotten into trouble, I wonder if Guard Sun is willing to help This Dowager solve this problem?"

Although his grandson Chu didn't know what the empress dowager wanted him to do, he knew she was testing him.

"It's this subordinate's honor to be able to help the empress dowager out of her troubles. I ask that you give me your orders."

Hearing these words, the smile on the empress dowager's face grew even wider.

She glanced at Senior Servant Qin and said, "I'm sure Guard Sun knows that the Right Prime Minister and Master Hou have been suppressing This Dowager, making it difficult for me to do anything else. I heard that you and Feixuan grew up together, and the Right Prime Minister treated you like his own son. Tell me, if This Dowager wanted you to kill the Right Prime Minister, would you not be unable to do so?"

Although his grandson, Chu, had worked for the empress dowager for six years, the empress dowager had never trusted him.

Even though he had been promoted to the position of the deacon of the Dew Palace, he was only responsible for the safety of the Dew Palace.

"Empress Dowager, your subordinate's abilities are still shallow. I'm afraid it'll be difficult for me to take on this task."

His grandson's words were nothing more than a rejection of the empress dowager.

However, the Empress Dowager did not get angry. Instead, she looked at him and laughed even more.

"Guard Sun, This Dowager knows that you are in a difficult situation. If you can help This Dowager complete this matter, This Dowager will promise you whatever you want."

Regarding the Right Prime Minister, who was also Mu Qiu's father, his grandson Chu Feng didn't really have a good impression of him.

If it wasn't for the Right Prime Minister stopping him, he and Mu Qiu would have long ago been together.

As for Mu Qiu, he wouldn't be sent to the Imperial Palace and become one of the tens of thousands of women in the Emperor's family.

"For the empress dowager's sake, your subordinate will not refuse. However, the Right Prime Minister's Mansion is under strict security. It would be difficult for us to sneak in with just our subordinate's power. "

"The reason why This Dowager wanted to promote you to the position of Guard Captain is because I fancy your ability. This Dowager believes in you. You will definitely not disappoint This Dowager. "

"But the empress dowager …"

"How dare you!"

His grandson Chu Gang opened his mouth and was about to say something more, but was stopped by Qin mama.

"Guard Sun, the empress dowager likes to tell you that you've repeatedly defied her imperial decree. Are you tired of living?!"

That's right, the empress dowager could have ordered her grandson Chu to assassinate the Right Prime Minister. The reason why the empress dowager had kindly spoken to him was simply to test his loyalty to her.

"It seems that Guard Sun is unwilling to help This Dowager solve her problems. This Dowager has heard that in the past few days, Guard Sun, you have frequently snuck in and out of the Palace. Could it be that Guard Sun is with Xuanfei … "

The Empress Dowager did not continue with her next words.

At this point of time, his grandson Chu was trembling uncontrollably.

"The empress dowager has a clear judgement that this subordinate is only going to visit Xuanfei. I'm afraid that if I go to the Eternal Music Palace in broad daylight, people will speak nonsense. That's why …"

His grandson's explanation was very far-fetched.

"Pa …"

Just as her grandson Chu Gang finished speaking, the empress dowager slammed down on the armrest of the imperial concubine's chair.

"Visit? Guard Sun, do you think This Dowager doesn't know what you're doing in the Palace? As a guard of the Dew Hall, you actually dare to go against the emperor's concubine? Do you know that this is a crime that involves all nine clans?

How could his grandson Chu not know that his imperial bodyguards and concubines had committed a heinous crime.

"Empress Dowager, please spare my life. This subordinate was muddle-headed for a moment before …" "May the empress dowager have mercy, please have mercy …"

Previously, his grandson Chu Feng felt that the empress dowager had discovered the matter between him and Mu Qiu, but he didn't know why the empress dowager hadn't exposed him.

Now, he finally knew that the Empress Dowager wanted to use this matter to make him work for her.

"Hmph, have mercy?" Guard Sun, didn't you have a body full of pride just a moment ago? However, This Dowager does not intend to spare you. What do you think I should do? "
