It was getting dark, and the harem seemed peaceful.
Before Zhao An left the East Palace, he had people prepare a sumptuous banquet for Pu Yuan. After all, only when he was full could he have the strength to work.
Tonight, the lights are hung high in the Yangxin Hall.
The empress frowned when she heard that Pu Yuan was going to break into Cining Palace at night.
Zhao An explained: "Even if the old witch wants to blame, she won't blame you. Let's go for a walk in the Royal Garden and watch a good show from a distance?"
"You guys are really brave. I am worried that Master Puyuan will make a mistake..." The empress smiled helplessly.
Zhao An didn't care about that, he pulled her out of the Yangxin Hall, and then had her put fine wine and food in the imperial garden, treating it as a moon-viewing ceremony. At this moment, the empress was only accompanied by eunuchs such as Zhao An and Huang Zhong.
But I don’t know where Chen Yuru got the news, and she brought Chang Ming over.
She has good acting skills. She held her belly and looked like a majesty in front of the empress. It would be unfair not to award her with an Oscar.
And now Zhao An is facing Chen Yuru, and his mood is indescribably complicated. He was tricked by the empress, and his fate is tied to Chen Yuru!
Fortunately, we know that the empress is a woman, otherwise the green grassland above her head would be unbearable.
There was a lot of chatting and laughing here, and suddenly there was movement in the distance. At a glance, it was Luo Qingshuang coming with several eunuchs and maids.
Zhao An and the Empress looked at each other and saw the shock in each other's eyes.
not good!
Did the old witch see through tonight's actions?
Zhao An secretly thought something was wrong and planned to go back and tell the old monk not to go to Cining Palace, but before he could leave, Luo Qingshuang had already arrived.
The Empress and Chen Yuru immediately greeted them, and Zhao An, Chang Ming, Huang Zhong and others also lowered their heads.
Luo Qingshuang was still wearing a black and gold patterned phoenix robe tonight, with a hairpin on her head. She was graceful and gorgeous. She personally grabbed the hands of the empress and Chen Yuru, and greeted them enthusiastically.
"The Ai family was depressed in Cining Palace tonight and wanted to go out for a walk. Who would have thought that we would catch up."
"My son, I also want to enjoy the moonlight tonight with my mother."
The empress replied with a smile, and then kept winking at Zhao An.
Zhao An turned around and left, and Luo Qingshuang said: "Slave, come and serve."
Zhao An stopped in his tracks and said, "Queen Mother, I'm going to help your Majesty clean up."
"With so many servants here, it's your turn to be the factory supervisor of the black factory. Come and talk to the Ai family."
Luo Qingshuang waved her hand, leaving no room for doubt.
Zhao Anxin complained, and it seemed that she had really seen through it.
A dragnet has been set up in Cining Palace. I hope the old monk won't be so stubborn and run for his life when the situation is not right.
Just like that, Zhao An was put on the shelf and stood dryly behind her.
Chang Ming saw resentment in his eyes.
He is also an eunuch, but he has to stand aside and drink from the northwest wind, while Zhao An can win the favor of the Queen Mother.
He also wanted to have a taste of the late emperor's widow!
Time passed little by little.
In the blink of an eye, the three of them were chatting about some worthless gossip for half an hour.
Seeing that there was no movement in Cining Palace, the empress felt that time was almost up, so she planned to leave.
Luo Qingshuang's face turned watery and she said calmly: "Why is the emperor so anxious? The Ai family still has a lot to say to you."
"My son..."
Just as the empress opened her mouth, suddenly fierce shouts of killing came from the Cining Palace in the distance.
Zhao An was startled and shouted: "Protect Your Majesty!"
Wow!
The imperial guards patrolling in the distance rushed over, and the eunuchs nervously surrounded the round table, feeling uneasy.
Finished.
Several figures flickered on the other side of Cining Palace, and among the shadows of swords and swords, a figure moved left and right at an extremely fast speed.
Zhao An recognized it at a glance. The black shadow on the cliff was Pu Yuan. He was discovered, and among the people who besieged him were Wu Ji and the grudge-like old woman.
In addition to the two of them, there were several strange figures who were very powerful. There were even people shooting bows and arrows in the distance.
The sharp sound of breaking through the air belonged to the ninth-grade archer, General Changyuan.
Puyuan was dressed in black at the moment, with his head covered. He still had enough energy to dodge, and kicked the old woman away. The latter groaned and rolled under the wall of the imperial garden, seemingly seriously injured.
Zhao An was so stunned that he pinched his teeth.
Fortunately, Puyuan is strong enough. The Grandmaster's strength is not just a boast, and he can handle one to many with ease.
But the Imperial Guards also surrounded him.
The empress said angrily: "This is unreasonable. Who is so bold as to dare to break into Cining Palace!"
Luo Qingshuang smiled and said: "It's just a little thief, the emperor doesn't need to be angry."
After the words were settled, a large number of imperial guards appeared in the direction of Pu Yuan's retreat, directly blocking the retreat.
Puyuan knocked Wuji away with a palm, and quickly escaped by stepping on the wall.
However, the Imperial Guards came well prepared. They all drew their bows and fired arrows. Suddenly, countless sharp arrows struck in mid-air!
Puyuan's figure was erratic and he quickly dodged. At the same time, a sharp arrowhead was swiped past his ear.
Zhao An's heart was in his throat.
Despicable, what a gang fight!
The Imperial Guards were not idle at all and continued to fire arrows.
A dense rain of arrows shot towards the wall. Puyuan had no choice but to rush towards the imperial garden.
Not long after the old woman got up, she immediately turned around to meet him.
Zhao An shouted: "Protect Her Majesty and the Queen Mother, retreat quickly!"
A group of imperial guards protected the group of people as they retreated, while the imperial guards in the distance surrounded Pu Yuan, shouting for death and screaming.
No matter how anxious Zhao An was, there was nothing he could do. He could only say that Luo Qingshuang was indeed the boss behind the scenes, and testing her was simply overthinking.
The group of people retreated a hundred meters away, and Luo Qingshuang said to the empress: "The Ai family is a little tired. The emperor and the empress should go and have a rest."
The empress opened her mouth, but didn't say anything after all, and turned around with Chen Yuru.
But just when Zhao An was about to leave, Luo Qingshuang suddenly said: "Eunuch Zhao is staying, you are the chief manager of Cining Palace. Something happened in Cining Palace tonight, and you need to take charge."
"This slave takes the order."
Zhao An had to stop and look at the empress looking back, her heroic face full of worry.
Luo Qingshuang left people behind, which explains a lot of problems.
But no one will pierce this layer of window paper.
After watching the empress and Chen Yuru disappear under strict protection, Zhao An said to Luo Qingshuang: "Queen Mother, will I send you back to the palace right now?"
Luo Qingshuang nodded and stretched out her hand. Zhao An immediately bent down to support her.
She did not choose to take a detour, but walked past the fighting area with a group of palace maids and eunuchs in a swaggering manner.
At this moment, Pu Yuan's black clothes were stained with blood, and the ground was full of imperial guards. Fortunately, he did not kill them. At most, they would lose their fighting ability. However, with strong men such as Wu Tongue watching eagerly, it would be difficult for him to escape.
At a certain moment, he and Zhao An looked at each other, and Zhao An immediately gave him a look.
Pu Yuan suddenly woke up and punched out. Some of the Imperial Guards screamed and flew out, hitting a person and knocking him over. Pu Yuan took this opportunity to rush in front of Zhao An.
