Beauty Xuan was lying on the beauty couch, leisurely eating the grapes fed to her by the palace maids. The grapes were as round as pearls and exuded a faint fragrance of roses. They were extremely attractive and attracted the palace ladies next to them to swallow their saliva.
Grapes are a tribute. They not only taste delicious, but also have the effect of nourishing yin and nourishing the skin. They were specially given to Xuan Meiren by the Zhou Dynasty and Yuan Dynasty. In the palace, except for those with high status, only Xuan Meiren had it. I know how many concubines have gritted their teeth over this.
There is no way, after Concubine Lan lost the Sacred Heart, Xuan Meiren was the only one to receive the Holy Grace!
It's not that no one has thought about harming Xuan Meiren, they have used poison, assassination, and all kinds of tricks, but somehow, Xuan Meiren always appears outside alive and kicking the next day.
Will Xuanmei be afraid? After eating Tai Sui meat, she will not die as long as Tai Sui does not die. What can little poison or assassination do to her? As long as she is not crushed to ashes, she will not die.
"Harder!" Xuan Meiren said lazily to the little palace maid behind her who was squeezing her shoulders. Her charming look made the little palace lady lose her mind.
Since practicing the "Bright Moon Book", Xuan Mei has become more and more charming, with a little bit of holiness in her charm. This contradictory temperament makes people want to stop looking at her.
Seeing that there was no response from behind, Xuan Meiren turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"
The palace maid came back to her senses, fell to her knees with a plop, and said in panic: "This slave deserves to die, this slave deserves to die! Your Majesty is so beautiful that I lost my mind for a moment."
"Giggle~~~" Xuan Meiren covered her mouth and laughed, and for a moment, the whole room seemed to be filled with countless bright roses blooming, "You are really good at talking, get up."
Seeing that the empress did not blame her, the little palace maid stood up with great gratitude.
"Thank you, empress, thank you, empress!"
Xuan Meiren casually handed the leftovers from the plate to her, "Here, here's a reward for you! Once you can speak, you can talk more. I like to hear it."
The little palace maid was ecstatic when she saw this. She immediately knelt down on her knees, raised her hands above her head and took the grapes, "Thank you for the gift!"
Seeing that the little palace maid had received the reward, the other palace maids immediately praised Xuan Mei's beauty, praising Xuan Mei to the point of trembling with joy.
Such a beautiful life was not enjoyed by a humble person like her in the past, but now she has it at her fingertips!
Thanks to the master! Xuan Meiren couldn't help but think in her heart, and at the same time she couldn't help but feel admiration for her master.
Suddenly, Xuan Meiren's laughter suddenly stopped. She waved her hand and said to the maids, "Okay, everyone, please go down. I want to rest for a while."
"Yes, slave, please leave!"
With that said, the maids bowed and left.
As soon as the maids left, a dark kitten jumped out of Xuan Meiren's shadow.
Xuan Meiren picked up Yueying Cat, stroked its soft satin-like fur, and said respectfully, "My lovely cat, I don't know but the master has something to say."
Yueyingmao glanced at Xuan Meiren coldly, then clapped her little paw, and a wooden bottle fell down.
Xuan Meiren picked up the wooden bottle and was about to say something when the Yueying Cat disappeared into her arms.
"This Master Cat is really hard to please!"
Xuan Meiren shook her head helplessly, and then opened the wooden bottle, only to see a pill lying inside. The moment she opened the cork, a cold fragrance hit her face, and she instantly understood the use of the pill.
Pouring out the elixir, she raised her head and swallowed it without hesitation. The elixir melted in her mouth, and bursts of elegant fragrance emanated from her body.
At this time, the palace maid's voice suddenly came from outside the door.
"Your Majesty, your Majesty is here!"
After hearing this, Meiren Xuan was about to get up, but after thinking about it, she smiled and lay back on the beauty's couch. Her clothes slipped off, revealing her crystal-white shoulders.
With a creaking sound, the door was pushed open, and Zhou Chaoyuan strode in.
"Oh, Your Majesty, why did you come in? I was about to go out to greet you!" Xuan Meiren said disheveledly.
"I don't know about you yet?" Zhou Chaoyuan stepped forward and hugged Xuan Meiren, "You must be trying to hide away again, right?" As he said that, he buried his head in Xuan Meiren's neck and took a deep breath, and then looked surprised.
"Why does your beauty smell so good today? What kind of fragrance did you use?"
Meiren Xuan didn't answer, she hugged Zhou Chaoyuan's neck, slumped on him as if she were boneless, and said coquettishly: "I won't tell your majesty."
"You little devil!"
Zhou Chaoyuan couldn't stand being hooked, so he picked up Xuan Meiren and walked to the bed.
"See how I treat you!"
Then the two started to have a goblin fight.
After dealing with state affairs for a whole day, Zhou Chaoyuan was very tired and finally found a chance to come out of the Government Affairs Hall to relax.
After a hearty exercise, Xuan Meiren lay on Zhou Chaoyuan's chest and said with a pout, "Your Majesty has been promiscuous all day long. If the elders of the clan know about it, I will definitely be scolded again."
Zhou Chaoyuan gently pinched Xuan Meiren's waist and said, "It's not like you, a little fairy, are too charming!"
Beauty Xuan lightly punched Zhou Chaoyuan's chest and said dissatisfiedly: "Your Majesty, stop talking. Recently, there are always rumors in the palace that the concubine is a monster, confusing Your Majesty, and causing cholera.
Don’t you know whether I am a monster or not? If this rumor spreads outside the palace and reaches the previous dynasty, wouldn't His Majesty's reputation be ruined? "
Hearing this, Zhou Chaoyuan's face turned cold. The aura of a Zhou Tianjing master filled the air, and the oppressive Xuan Meiren almost couldn't breathe.
"Don't worry, my beloved, I will investigate this matter."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Xuan Meiren gently drew circles on Zhou Chaoyuan's chest with her fingers, and a bright smile appeared on her face, which made Zhou Chaoyuan's mind sway, and he was about to hold her and fight for another 300 rounds.
"Your Majesty, I haven't finished speaking yet!"
Xuan Meiren was not happy and pushed Zhou Chaoyuan.
"What else?"
Zhou Chaoyuan was a little dissatisfied that his interest was interrupted.
"Your Highness is not yet the Sixth Highness. Our Ninth Princess was just relaxing in the Royal Garden. He neither provoked nor provoked him. He actually ordered the young eunuch to slap our Ninth Princess. This is too unreasonable. If it weren't for my concubine We went just in time, we don’t know what will happen yet!”
Hearing Xuan Meiren's words, Zhou Chaoyuan's eyes moved but he said nothing.
"I know that the Ninth Princess has a special status. I don't ask for your majesty to treat her well, nor do you ask for your highnesses to be friendly to her. I just ask that we don't offend each other. In this way, in the future, I will grow old and fade away, and my honor and favor will no longer be When the time comes, we can have someone to rely on. We, the Great Zhou Dynasty, can’t afford to support a princess and an old concubine, right?”
As she said this, Xuan Meiren burst into tears.
"My concubine has a low status and will never have any heirs in the future. She never asks for anything extravagantly. She just wants to live with the princess. Isn't such a small wish not allowed?
Your Highnesses are the future of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and now we cannot even tolerate our frail and sick sisters..."
The more Miss Xuan spoke, the more miserable she became, her tears were like broken pearls, which made me feel pity for her.
Finally Zhou Chaoyuan sighed, "Okay, I know, I will investigate. If the matter is true, I will not let Lao Jiu and you be wronged."
"Really?" Xuan Meiren raised her pitiful little face and looked at Zhou Chaoyuan expectantly.
"You are not joking, how can I still lie to you?" Zhou Chaoyuan found it funny and couldn't help pinching Xuan Meiren's little face that was flushed because she had just cried.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Xuan Meiren laughed through her tears and kissed Zhou Chaoyuan hard on the face.
Feeling the softness on his face, Zhou Chaoyuan couldn't help but pull Xuan Meiren into bed again.
In a pavilion in the Royal Garden, Zhou Jinchun was sitting in a daze holding a black kitten. The cat was a Yueying cat, which was sent by Chang Yue to Zhou Jinchun to protect her.
Moon Shadow Cat looks petite and cute, and most people just think it is an ordinary kitten when they see it.
Of course, it is impossible for others to know the existence of Moon Shadow Cat. Today she is here...
There was neither eunuch nor maid by her side. Xuan Meiren made arrangements for her when she went out, but she refused.
Xuan Meiren knew that Zhou Jinchun was not as easy to mess with as she seemed, so she did not persist.
At this time, the sixth prince, who had been sued by Xuan Meiren, came over with a group of eunuchs and maids. When he saw Zhou Jinchun sitting in the pavilion, his eyes suddenly lit up.
"It's Ninth Sister. We are really destined." Ninth Prince Zhou Li came over and said casually, "We meet again!" The word "you" was meaningful.
Zhou Jinchun glanced at him lightly, and then withdrew his gaze.
It was this indifferent look that made Zhou Li feel offended. He said with a straight face: "Jiu Mei, you don't know how to say hello when you see your brother. Is this your upbringing as a royal princess?"
Zhou Jinchun glanced at Zhou Li again, then stood up slowly, "I've met Sixth Brother."
Seeing Zhou Jinchun's half-dead look, Zhou Li frowned in disgust. He looked so worthless, so what if he got out of the cold palace by donating blood? So what if she is the daughter of the first queen? Not a wimp!
At this time, he suddenly noticed the Yueying cat in Zhou Jinchun's arms, his eyes suddenly lit up, and then he said maliciously: "Jiu Mei, your cat is not bad, why don't you give it to Sixth Brother?"
Zhou Jinchun was in a daze quietly, as if he didn't hear Zhou Li's words.
Zhou Li's face suddenly turned ugly. He signaled the little eunuch next to him with his eyes. The little eunuch understood and stepped forward, snatching the kitten away from Zhou Jinchun's arms.
"Meow~"
The kitten was pinched and couldn't help but howl.
Zhou Jinchun opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but finally closed his mouth and lowered his head.
"Hmph! What a loser!"
Without saying a word, Zhou Li proudly left with a group of eunuchs and maids.
What he didn't know was that Zhou Jinchun was staring at his back with strange eyes.
After walking far away, the eunuch holding the kitten asked Zhou Li, "Your Highness, what should I do with this kitten?"
Zhou Li raised a cruel smile on his lips and said, "Beat him to death with a stick."
"okay!"
The little eunuch responded excitedly.
Then the group of people found a hidden corner, threw the kitten on the ground, and raised the arm-thick wooden stick in their hands to beat it to death, while Zhou Li stood aside and watched with interest, his eyes full of excitement. .
However, just when the stick was about to fall on the kitten, the kitten suddenly raised its head, and a strange red light appeared in its eyes. In an instant, all the little eunuchs holding the sticks were unable to move.
"What's going on? Why don't you take action?" Zhou Li asked with a frown.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, a cold light flashed, and heads fell from the necks of the young eunuchs one by one. Blood spurted out like a fountain, dyeing the corners of the wall and the grass red.
The remaining young eunuchs and maids were about to scream when they saw four or five identical kittens jumping out from the shadows in the corner again. Their eyes also flashed red, and the screams of the eunuchs and maids suddenly stopped.
The kittens jumped up and turned into black light one after another, passing by the eunuchs and maids respectively. A cold light flashed between their claws, and the heads of the eunuchs and maids rolled one by one to Zhou Li. underfoot.
Soon all the eunuchs and maids were dead.
At this moment, Zhou Li was frightened. He collapsed on the ground and didn't understand how a cute kitten suddenly became so cruel.
But when he reacted and wanted to fight back, he found that he couldn't move no matter what. He turned his head and looked behind him, and saw another little black cat with cold eyes standing in his shadow.
"Meow~"
The cat meowed softly, which was obviously gentle, but it made Zhou Li shiver all over.
This black cat is the leader of the Moon Shadow Cat Clan, with Zhoutian Realm strength.
Moonshadow cats are good at assassination and are naturally gifted with extremely superb breath-containing talents. In addition, they also have an innate magical power called shadow-trampling.
Anyone whose shadow is stepped on by the Moon Shadow Cat will be restrained by the shadow and unable to freely control the body.
Zhou Li's cultivation is actually not bad. If he really resists, it doesn't mean that he has no power to resist.
But he grew up in the palace, and the most cruel thing he experienced was beating several eunuchs and maids to death. He had never seen such a bloody scene, and he was so frightened that he lost his mind and could not break free from the shackles of the shadow.
"No... don't come here! Don't come here!" Looking at the Moon Shadow Cat walking towards him step by step, Zhou Li felt that it was like the god of death who came to welcome him into the underworld.
However, the Moon Shadow Cat did not hurt him, only a glimmer of light flashed in its eyes, and Zhou Li, who looked at it, instantly lost consciousness.
At this time, the leader of the Moon Shadow Cat came forward. He patted the shadow under his feet. A dagger emerged from the shadow and fell to the ground. The arc of the dagger's blade tip was almost the same as the one on the Moon Shadow Cat's claws. The cold light is exactly the same.
After putting the dagger covered in blood into Zhou Li's hand, the leader of the Moon Shadow Cat shouted softly at his men.
"Meow meow meow~~~"
One by one, the Moonshadow cats slipped into the shadows and disappeared, as if they had never appeared.
At this time, the fourth princess Zhou Jinfei and a group of palace maids were chasing a bird with green fur.
"Get it, get it!"
"Over there, whoever catches it will be rewarded heavily by the princess!"
But the bird flew so fast that the palace maids could not catch it. When they caught up to a corner of the palace that no one usually visited, the bird suddenly disappeared.
"Where did it go?"
A palace maid came out of the corner and was about to carefully search for traces of the bird. She was suddenly frightened by the scene in front of her and screamed.
"Ahhhhh!!!"
After hearing this, Zhou Jinfei came over with other palace maids and scolded dissatisfiedly: "I asked you to find birds, what are you screaming about..."
Before she could finish her words, she was stunned.
At this time Zhou Li woke up when he heard the noise. He struggled to get up from the ground, still holding the dagger in his hand, because he had just woken up and his head was still a little dazed.
"Sixth brother killed someone!"
A piercing scream instantly brought him back to consciousness. He looked at the corpses on the ground, then at the dagger in his hand and the blood all over his body. For a moment, his mind went blank.
