Zhao An planned to wait until the empress fell asleep before leaving. Unexpectedly, she suddenly started chatting and asked about the mastermind behind the scenes.
"Slave, you are so strong, the mastermind behind the scenes seems to be frightened by you."
"Is he really that timid? I don't think so."
Zhao An had a hunch that if the person behind the attack failed to use the opportunity to kill someone, there must be another trick, but as for what it was, it was unclear.
The empress warned: "The imperial city is not safe. The aristocratic family hates the imperial court because of the new salt and paper business. Now a lot of resources and business in Daxia are in the hands of the aristocratic family. In order to retaliate, they may cooperate with that person and continue to deal with them." you."
Zhao An nodded and went to see Luo Xiaoxiao later to persuade her to ask the Queen Mother to come forward to fight the thunder. Old witch, don't think that nothing will happen to her after Chen Guogong died. Even if the family wants to set fire to fire, the relatives should be burned first. On the body.
After a long time, the empress finally fell asleep. Zhang Chi looked at her peaceful sleeping face and put down the gauze curtain.
When I went out, I saw Huang Zhong outside the door. He smiled and said, "I haven't had time to congratulate the factory supervisor on his promotion."
Hey, this old eunuch is a flatterer, but he's still loyal.
Zhao An casually rewarded a bottle of medicine. Huang Zhong was overjoyed and put it into his arms, secretly saying: "You asked me to investigate the matter but I still don't have a clue, but don't worry, I will do my best."
Zhao An frowned and asked him to check if there was a concubine with a mysterious origin in the harem, or if Li Dai Tao had entered the palace on behalf of someone else.
Because it was previously considered that the original owner entered the palace alone for someone he cared about, then that person was most likely the original owner's sister.
There are only so many concubines in the harem, are they not concubines, but maids or something like that? Or maybe the original owner’s sister died?
With mixed emotions, Zhao An dismissed Huang Zhong and entered Tianyun Court alone.
Concubine Yun was basking in the sun. Since Chen Guogong was dealt with, her mood has become better. She has not been as relaxed as she is now for many years.
Seeing Zhao An arriving, Concubine Yun immediately stood up, saluted gently and called Mr. Zhao.
Zhao An had a dark face, tapped her white brow, and pretended to blame: "What do you call me, sir? Husband."
Concubine Yun's cheeks were red, and she led people to the pavilion in the back garden and made a jar of Xinghuachun that she brewed herself. Although the taste was a bit bland, it still smelled good.
"My father liked to drink these the most when he was alive. I want to go to the palace to worship my parents. I hope you will agree."
Concubine Yun made the request somewhat pitifully.
Zhao An's head softened, and he took his fair little hand and said softly: "It's time to give an explanation to my father-in-law and mother-in-law. When do you plan to leave? Is the journey far?"
"It's about two or three days' journey to the border of Chenzhou. I won't delay too long and will come back after paying homage."
After Concubine Yun finished speaking, she added another sentence, as if she was afraid of not agreeing.
"Chenzhou..."
Zhao An always felt that place names were so familiar, as if he had heard them somewhere.
After repeating it several times, I suddenly realized, "I remember it!"
Fuyunshan Yunding Palace is in Chenzhou!
That mysterious palace master, the greatest grandmaster in the world, personally experienced the massacre of the champion marquis’ family and was the teacher of the original master!
Concubine Yun was surprised and said: "So you also know her. Legend has it that she is the most beautiful woman in the world. The late emperor also expressed his true feelings to her back then, but she was aloof and did not agree."
Zhao An thought for a while and said: "You want to go to pay homage, you might as well find a time for me to come with you. It just so happens that I have something to do and want to go to Yunding Palace to visit the palace owner in person, and I don't want you to go out alone. rest assured."
The current situation is chaotic, and the masterminds behind the scenes are hiding their heads and tail. Traveling alone is like a sheep entering a tiger's mouth.
Concubine Yun said in confusion: "I live deep in the harem and never have any grudges with outsiders. Why did they kill me?"
"Because you are my woman."
Zhao An's love was not concealed at all.
Concubine Yun was so embarrassed that she finally nodded in a low voice. She was not in a hurry, but she just didn't want to delay it for too long.
In the end, the two decided to leave for Chenzhou in five days.
For the next time, Zhao An hugged her soft body and rubbed her ears and temples together, and restlessly put her big hands into Concubine Yun's robe, causing her face to turn red. At a certain moment, she suddenly said, "If you If you have time, you might as well give me some medicine."
"Are you sick?" Zhao An was startled, and Concubine Yun shook her head and said, "I don't know why, but I have been having nightmares recently."
Zhao An's big hand that was causing trouble in her belly suddenly stopped, and his face became stiff, "What nightmare?"
Concubine Yun looked sad and said sadly: "It's not a good dream, so don't tell me."
"I want to hear it."
Zhao An was inexplicably nervous. The empress also had a nightmare and was even frightened. The content of the dream was very similar to the memory fragments of the original owner. If Concubine Yun's dream was the same, it might not be a dream!
Concubine Yun was silent for a moment and whispered: "I dreamed of a fire in the imperial city, and everyone in the palace was killed, including you..."
"Beheading?"
"No, it's a cut in the waist." When Concubine Yun said this, she couldn't help but shudder.
Zhao An also had goosebumps all over his body, "I mean, Zhi'er, are you sure you remember it so clearly?"
"Yes, I dreamed about the same scene for several days in a row. I also saw a small woman in white clothes and disheveled hair wandering around the palace in the sea of blood. I would wake up every time. Unfortunately, I couldn't see it. To her face."
When Concubine Yun said this, her face turned pale.
Zhao An asked seriously: "When did you start having nightmares?"
"It was probably a few days ago, when King Chu returned to Beijing, right?"
Concubine Yun was not sure. She had been living in a deep palace for many years, and her concept of dates had long been blurred. It was normal for her not to remember clearly.
Zhao An asked again: "What does a little woman mean?"
"She is not tall and seems to be very young, but just looking at her makes me feel very depressed."
Concubine Yun covered her brows, a flash of deep fear flashed across her eyes, "Tell me, is the harem unclean?"
Looking at each other, Zhao An couldn't help laughing, and the hearty laughter dispelled the gloomy atmosphere.
Concubine Yun asked in confusion: "Why are you laughing?"
"If the harem is not clean, why wait until now? You are just thinking wildly. If you really don't want to live in the palace anymore, I will find a place to properly place you, Hongluan and the others."
"That's fine."
Concubine Yun had long been fed up with the life in the palace. Even if she went out to be a beggar, she would accept it.
As everyone knows, Zhao An laughed deliberately just now to make her relax, because from her description, there was indeed a person who fit the image in her mouth.
That is, the sister of the original owner!
That sister never appeared, but she harbored a huge hatred for the royal family!
If she wanted to destroy Daxia, it was entirely possible.
But why did Concubine Yun and the Empress both have such outrageous dreams? Could they be foreshadowing the future?
Unscientific!
In short, we need to find the person quickly. That woman is hiding somewhere in the harem.
Zhao An did not stay with Concubine Yun any longer, he prescribed medicine for her and left the palace in a hurry.
