Nowadays, the imperial city has been almost turned into a sieve by Huang Wenbo, the former commander of the imperial palace. Zhao Yu's every move is monitored by all his imperial guards. What happened in the palace today will be reported the next day. to the ears of officials outside the palace.
Similarly, it would be easy for Huang Wenbo to spread the news to someone in the palace.
Early this morning, Yin Hanhan received the news from Prince Taihe's Mansion.
Looking at the secret letter in her hand, Yin Hanwan thought for a moment, and finally called Bai Qing'er and Wei Lianxiang to her face.
After driving away all the servants in the palace, leaving only Yin and Han, she spoke:
"Junior Sister Qing'er and Uncle Wei, this is what Marquis De'an sent to the palace. He wants Wu'er to persuade His Majesty to agree to the appointment of their confidants. Wu'er felt a little hesitant in her heart. She didn't know for a moment whether it was true or not. We must invite His Majesty to Nuanchun Pavilion as stated in the letter, so I want to hear your opinions."
After reading the content of the letter, Wei Lianxiang considered it and said:
"Senior Nephew Wu'er, according to my uncle's opinion, it is best to avoid too much contact with the little emperor. The little emperor seems to be under the control of King Taihe, but based on what my uncle has seen in the past few days, I am afraid that he is The dragon lurks in the abyss with other plans.”
"Uncle Master, are you afraid that the little emperor will see through our disguise?"
Bai Qing'er was stunned for a moment, and then said with some surprise:
"Uncle, are you too worried? Even the old lady of the Huang family and Huang Wenbo didn't notice that senior sister and I were fake. The little emperor has almost never been in contact with Huang Zixin, how could he see through it?"
Wei Lianxiang said:
"Uncle, it's just my intuition. I wonder if the two nephews still remember Eunuch Gao Lishi?"
"The little emperor's personal servant, we will naturally remember him."
The two girls, Yin Huan, Bai Qing'er, looked at each other and said in unison.
"If my uncle hadn't also been a chamberlain and was proficient in aura-containing techniques, I would never have seen that Eunuch Gao, who is like His Majesty's shadow, possesses powerful martial arts." Wei Lianxiang paused and emphasized, "Uncle even I have a feeling that Gao Lishi’s cultivation level is even higher than that of his uncle."
"How can this be?"
After hearing these words, the two women's faces showed surprise.
You must know that their uncle is not practicing ordinary martial arts, but martial arts tailor-made for the eunuchs in the Imperial Palace of the former Han Dynasty.
When the former Han Dynasty collapsed, the master of Tianyin Pavilion of that generation collected this classic from the royal secret treasury of the former Han Dynasty, and removed the essentials to retain the essentials, which became the martial arts passed down in the pavilion.
Although Master Wei has not achieved great success due to his limited qualifications, with this skill, if Master Wei really gets involved in the world, I am afraid that ordinary famous sect leaders will not be his opponents.
"Could it be that Eunuch Gao was left to Your Majesty by Emperor Daxing or Emperor Dezong?"
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Yin Hanhan shook his head repeatedly.
"No, your Majesty's rise to power was a coincidence. In addition, your Majesty is from the Wuzong lineage..."
After spending so many days in the palace, Yin Hanhan gradually understood the relationship between the royal family and quickly overturned her own judgment.
"What Senior Nephew Wu'er said is true. Uncle Senior has been secretly investigating for the past few days and finally found out the origin of Gao Lishi." Wei Lianxiang's tone was a little serious and solemn, "It turns out that Eunuch Gao was originally Xuan Xuan. An ordinary little Huangmen in the Bird House, when His Majesty came to Beijing, for some reason he caught His Majesty's eyes, and that's how he got his status today."
"Uncle Wei, it should be less than half a year since His Majesty came to Beijing and ascended the throne, right?"
Bai Qing'er suddenly realized something and asked aloud.
Wei Lianxiang corrected: "Today is November 20th. To be precise, it's not even three months."
"this……"
At this time, both Bai Qing'er and Yin Hanhan realized the seriousness of the problem.
In less than three months, Eunuch Gao Lishi, an ordinary young man with no martial arts skills, turned into a master who could compete with his uncle. What this means is amazing to think about. Feeling shuddering.
"Your Majesty, is he hiding his clumsiness?"
Yin Hanhan said in a harsh voice, with a hint of disbelief in her tone.
If this is really the case, then His Majesty’s forbearance is truly terrifying!
With such forbearance, she could even imagine that if the little emperor took action, the situation would be reversed in an instant like the earth was shattering.
"You can tell the whole leopard by looking at one spot. That's why, uncle, I suggest that you try to avoid contact with the little emperor, so as not to reveal the truth without realizing it." Wei Lianxiang sighed.
Bai Qing'er thought for a while and then said:
"Uncle's concerns are not unreasonable. But if Senior Sister avoids His Majesty like this, His Majesty may also become suspicious. Don't forget that Senior Sister is playing the role of an unruly young lady with Taihe Wang Zuo behind her."
Wei Lianxiang looked at Yin Hanwen and sighed: "Senior nephew Qing'er said this, uncle, I can't do anything for the moment. Senior nephew Wu'er, you are the person in charge now. No matter what decision you make, as long as it does not violate the rules of the pavilion, Uncle Master, I will do my best to support this big plan."
Bai Qing'er nodded.
"The same goes for junior sister."
Seeing both of them looking at her, Yin Hanhan frowned and thought for a moment before speaking:
"Uncle, Junior Sister, Wen'er feels that we should get in touch with His Majesty before we talk about it. If His Majesty is really ambitious, then it would be a good choice for me, Tianyin Pavilion, to turn to His Majesty. After all, it is better to provide help in times of need than to add icing on the cake."
From Yin Huan's point of view, it didn't matter whether he was helping the young emperor or King Taihe. What Tianyin Pavilion wanted was to finally gain a foothold in the Chu Kingdom.
As soon as these words came out, both of them looked thoughtful.
…………
In the evening, Zhao Yu, accompanied by Gao Lishi, came to Nuanxiang Pavilion.
"I see you, Your Majesty!"
Today, Yin Hanwan specially wore a moon-white uniform. She tied her waterfall-like hair behind her head with only a silver hairpin. She also carefully put on light makeup, making her skin as white as fat, her eyebrows as dark as black, and as elegant as a fairy.
The cold appearance is like a fairy from the Moon Palace coming to earth, which makes people feel pity.
"My beloved concubine, please get up." Zhao Yu looked Yin Hanhan up and down and said warmly, "I never thought that my beloved concubine would be dressed up like this. She doesn't have the meaning of being a worldly person. She doesn't look like a person in this world, but like a person in this world. It’s like a fairy in the painting.”
"I don't dare to be your Majesty's compliment."
As Yin Hanwan said this, she stood up, welcomed Zhao Yu into the Nuanchun Pavilion, and respectfully offered him tea.
Then the waiter stood beside Zhao Yu, and she didn't dare to sit down until Zhao Yu offered her a seat.
Looking at Yin Hanhan's cautious appearance, Zhao Yu secretly laughed in his heart. Is this the devil's witch who was not afraid of anything and could knock him unconscious with her finger on her wedding night?
This is showing courtesy for nothing, which is either adultery or theft!
Zhao Yu was thinking this in his heart, but he made a sighing look on his face and said:
"My beloved concubine has been in this palace for a few days, and she has become more aware of the etiquette in the White House."
Yin Hanhan was stunned for a moment, then realized that this was a compliment to her attitude today, and hurriedly said:
"My concubine used to be pampered and pampered by her parents at home. Only after entering the palace did she realize the importance of the seven words "if there are no rules, there will be no success."
When Zhao Yu heard these words, he nodded in agreement on the surface, but he was laughing in his heart.
You witch, the Huang family won't even pay you a penny of salary, so what are you trying to do by performing so hard?
If I didn't know your details, you would have fooled me without checking.
However, Zhao Yu didn't want to expose the true face of this witch at this time. He also wanted to find a suitable time to show off his cards with the other party and use these witches for his own use to become a major help in dealing with Huang Jingming.
While the two were talking, Bai Qing'er brought the prepared pastries in front of them.
"I thought that His Majesty was busy with many things, and the food might not be as satisfactory as expected, so I made a few cakes for His Majesty with my own hands, which can be regarded as a small token of my devotion."
As Yin Hanwan spoke, she raised her wrist lightly, picked up a piece of pastry, and handed it to Zhao Yu's mouth.
"Your Majesty, please comment on my concubine's craftsmanship."
Zhao Yu was unprepared for a moment, and when he reacted, the cake was already on his lips.
Suddenly, there was a warm and moist feeling on my lips, and my nose was filled with a rich aroma.
"Your Majesty~"
The beauty begged softly, so Zhao Yu had no choice but to follow the good advice and opened his mouth.
The next moment, the lingering and sweet taste of the pastry spread between your lips and teeth.
"Your Majesty, is it delicious?"
Yin Hanhan stared at Zhao Yu's face and asked softly.
"It's delicious, but although the food is good, it can't compare to the love of my beloved concubine."
Zhao Yu licked the corner of his mouth and laughed.
"Your Majesty does not disdain my concubine's craftsmanship, and I am already satisfied."
The blushing Yin Hanhan lowered her neck as long as a swan and spoke softly like a mosquito.
"I once heard that my concubine has a very unruly temperament in the palace. If my concubine's current demeanor is seen by King Taihe, countless eyes will be shocked." After Zhao Yu said something casually, his expression gradually changed. Get serious.
"I wonder if my concubine, apart from inviting me to taste the pastries, what else would you like to say to me today?"
