Coming out from underground and seeing the light of day again, it felt so good!
Feng Qingmo turned Qi Yu around, "Look here."
Then, Qi Yu saw the pile of archers that were searching for traces of his and Feng Qingmo. At this time, they were only about two hundred meters away from them, separated by two small soil slopes. If they were slightly careless, they would expose her and Feng Qingmo's whereabouts.
Qi Yu panicked and squatted down, and asked softly: "What do we do?"
Feng Qingmo pulled her up: "Go back and find Bi Su first, and enter the palace at night."
Bi Su was waiting for them in the tavern. Seeing that Qi Yu had returned and was about to ask questions, and then seeing the bloodstains and bloodstains on her clothes, she could not help but be stunned.
"What's wrong?" Bi Su asked in a low voice, surprised.
"Mrs. Xu is dead." Qi Yu was gloomy.
"The Mrs. Xu is dead?" Bi Su was shocked, she could not believe her own ears, "Yes …. The Mrs. Xu in our residence? "
"Who else do you think it is?" If it was another Mrs. Xu, she wouldn't be this concerned!
Bi Su was stunned, she looked at Qi Yu for a long time. Seeing that Qi Yu was about to take off her outer robes, she immediately took out a set of clean clothes and changed Qi Yu's clothes, "Mrs. Xu … "She's fine, how did she die?"
"Crown’s Master killed him!" Qi Yu said. Although she was sure that Xu Chang was the one who killed the person, there was no evidence.
But this was already enough to shock Bi Su!
After changing into clean clothes, Qi Yu wrapped herself in the quilt. Her entire body was in a state of being emptied, no, she did not empty her mind, countless memories kept flipping through her mind. The memories that were left in the original owner's head were helping her to organize them again and again, as her judgement towards Xu Chang, Chu Yixuan and the others slowly became clearer and clearer.
Yes, what Mrs. Xu said was not wrong, Xu Chang is not someone from the Eastern Palace Clan, but someone from the Prince Qi Palace!
On the surface, Xu Chang supported Eastern Palace, but in the end, he did something that harmed Eastern Palace. The one he served was not Crown Prince Chu Yizhao, but Prince Qi Chu Yixuan!
In truth, Xu Chang was not seeking for Chu Yixuan's position of power, and he would not truly be loyal to anyone. Everything he had done, was only because of his hatred for Chu Zhe, and it was just to make Chu Zhe's son suffer the pain of having his entire life trying to avoid!
To use almost twenty years of time to take revenge on his love rival, Xu Chang had plotted deeply and schemed to do it, and at least, had achieved what he wanted!
But, what about Chu Yixuan?
And how did he collude with Xu Chang, come to an agreement with Xu Chang, and attack the Eastern Palace Clan together?
Now that he was finally going to succeed, Chu Yixuan had finally fulfilled his wish, with him enduring such humiliation and scheming, even if he won the East Palace, was he not afraid of Xu Chang rebelling and giving him a fatal strike?
But no matter what, Chu Yixuan and Xu Chang are the same type of person!
Use, use, in the eyes of people like them, only scheming and scheming. As long as it was useful to them, they would make full use of their identity!
The original owner of her body was first used by Xu Chang, then Chu Yixuan. In such a situation, it was truly tragic for Xu Rouzhi!
Qi Yu felt sad, sad!
Seeing Qi Yu's expression, Bi Su did not dare disturb her, and went to ask Feng Qingmo about the Mrs. Xu. She did not hide anything, and told her about it.
"Can't believe what?" Feng Qingmo asked.
Bi Su looked at Feng Qingmo, and then quietly lowered her head, her heart was filled with mixed emotions, she could not tell what the smell was!
Although she clearly knew that she was just using a chess piece, Bi Su didn't expect that the Manager Tong was actually the crown prince's person. She was only a tool the Crown’s Master had used to prove his loyalty to the Eastern Palace!
No, not only was she a tool used by the Crown’s Master to prove her loyalty to the Eastern Palace, she was also a tool the Prince Qi Palace used to lure the Eastern Palace to make the wrong judgement! She was used by both Crown’s Master and Prince Qi at the same time!
Looking silently at Qi Yu who was in a daze on the bed, Bi Su turned her head, looking at Feng Qingmo, he said softly: "Tonight, it is better not to let her enter the palace!"
"Why?" Feng Qingmo raised his eyebrows suspiciously.
"I don't want her to face such a cruel reality." Bi Su whispered.
It was not because she was worried that Qi Yu would not be able to accept her father's scheming, but rather, Bi Su was worried that he would not be able to face Chu Yixuan's scheme. After all, Bi Su also saw what Qi Yu felt toward him in her heart.
Feng Qingmo laughed: "Don't worry! She's definitely stronger than you think. "
"Ugh …" That's true!
After all, he was not the real Xu Rouzhi! How could a girl like Qi Yu, who didn't fear power, was brave enough to resist, and was good enough to discipline her opponents, be weak enough to flee?
— —
At night, they finally entered the Imperial Palace.
Of course, it wasn't a fair and square way, but it wasn't like flying over a wall either. Right. Drilling the tunnel again.
As for why Feng Qingmo dared to bring her and Bi Su into the palace from the tunnel, Qi Yu planned to ask after he finished dealing with the matters in the palace. In any case, Feng Qingmo would not say it out loud now. He would only say it, and he would tell her when the time was right.
However, Qi Yu had already made a clear judgement in her heart: Feng Qingmo was not an ordinary person.
However, she still could not determine what Feng Qingmo's intentions were for helping her, and what goal did he have to use her?
The tunnel leading to the palace was guarded by sentries. But Feng Qingmo had already prepared a bag of sleeping incense, as long as he met with the guards and scattered the medicinal powder, all the guards would be hit. The soldiers that had been struck by the bewitching incense fell to the ground with a "plop" sound like a dead pig and stopped moving.
"Why do you have something like this? It is a despicable method to use this medicine in the martial arts world. " Qi Yu asked in surprise.
Feng Qingmo said: "Without those things, we will not be able to enter the palace. Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, and the security in the palace is extremely tight. If we want to advance above ground, we have no chance. If we go through the tunnel, these sentries will not expect any uninvited guests, so it's easier for us to get close. "
Tomorrow is New Year's Eve?
Qi Yu was startled, err, it's the new year! She had actually mixed herself with Bi Su in the tunnel and wanted to barge into the palace at night!
He didn't know if he would be exposed or killed. The road ahead was truly dangerous and unpredictable. He didn't know if he could endure until tomorrow's New Year's Eve!
As if seeing through Qi Yu's thoughts, Bi Su turned around and held Qi Yu's hand, and said gently: "Tomorrow night, let's release the fireworks together."
Qi Yu looked at Bi Su, smiled, and nodded.
Although it was almost New Year's Eve and the palace was decorated with lanterns and decorations, it was obvious that there was a heavy atmosphere enveloping the entire palace.
There was actually no one guarding the exit of the imperial palace's tunnel. Perhaps it was because the tunnel was under the jurisdiction of the Seven Treasures Division, but no one would have expected that an outsider would actually be able to enter this tunnel and head straight for the Imperial Palace.
After the three of them came out of the tunnel, they happened to be patrolling the Forbidden Army s as they headed over. Feng Qingmo gestured for Qi Yu and the other two to follow him as they hid in the shadows at the corner.
The patrolling Forbidden Army quickly passed by, Feng Qingmo turned and hooked his fingers at the two, and said softly: "Follow me."
Bi Su nodded towards Qi Yu, signalling him not to be afraid. Even if Feng Qingmo had other intentions, she would still protect Qi Yu's safety.
Qi Yu understood the meaning behind Bi Su's eyes and nodded. Even if she had already revealed that she was not Xu Rouzhi, Bi Su was still concerned with her and took care of her. This friendship was something that she would forever remember.
With Feng Qingmo and Bi Su, the two experts, leading Qi Yu, Qi Yu easily flew over the wall. Hmm, this cold weather, flying is really painful. The cold wind is like a myriad of knives slicing through the body. It's both cold and painful. It's completely not as casual and comfortable as I imagined it to be.
stopped in his tracks as he flew into a majestic brick palace with gold spikes and red lacquer, and quietly landed along with Bi Su. This palace was carved with dragons, phoenixes, and phoenixes. The decorations were especially grand and grand.
The three of them quickly disappeared into the darkness, hiding behind the suspended beam. Looking down, the spacious hall was empty except for the red fire that warmed the room.
Feng Qingmo said softly: "This is the King's Court."
The King's Lodge? The residence of the Emperor, Chu Zhe?
Qi Yu looked down carefully, but where was she? Why was there no one in Wang Bei's room?
Thinking that no one was around, this person came.
Two palace maids came in with something that looked like bird's nest porridge. After checking that there was no one around, the two court ladies closed the door and placed the bowl of soup on the table. Then, they started to chat quietly.
One of them said, "Why is there no one else around your majesty? Did he go to the empress's place? "
The other said, "Impossible? "Didn't the empress send someone just now to invite her in, and His Majesty already refused them outright?"
One of them said, "Even if you say so, His Highness the Crown Prince is still the son of His Majesty after all. His Majesty has always doted on the Crown Prince. Even if he doesn't like the empress, he should at least give her some face."
Another one scoffed. "The emperor is about to punish the Eastern Palace. The crown prince's power is about to collapse. How could the empress have any face?"
"That's true." The palace maid from before said, "It's just that Justice Division has already gathered all of the crown prince's evidence at noon, but until now, Your Majesty still hasn't decided to convict the crown prince. So, it's still unknown whether or not the crown prince's power will crumble!"
"Then, do you think that if His Majesty were to convict the crown prince, he would cripple his position as the crown prince?"
"This... No one could guess the thoughts of His Majesty! "If you insist on guessing, I feel …"
"You dare to talk about His Majesty and the Crown Prince in the King's Couch, what should be your punishment?" A soft, yet incomparably ice-cold voice interrupted the conversation between the two young palace maids, and a slender cyan figure slowly appeared in front of the two young palace maids.
It was likely that the two palace maids did not expect that there would be someone else in the hall, hence they guessed wrongly. Now that they saw this figure, they were immediately scared to the point of kneeling down and kowtowing, "Please forgive Manager Qing for her sin, I will not dare anymore, I will not dare anymore!"
Manager Qing?
Qi Yu was startled, could it be that this slender body of a eunuch, was actually the Qing`er that Mrs. Xu spoke of, and also the birth mother of Xu Rouzhi — Cheng Wan?
