"Please forgive me, my queen."
After settling Su Xian, Liu Fuquan paid homage to Concubine Tang again:
"Your Majesty, your Majesty, this is Mr. Su Zhesu. He was invited by Your Majesty to treat the Queen Mother. He is not a...eunuch in the palace."
"oh?"
Concubine Tang was very surprised. The fierce light in her eyes subsided slightly, but she still had a high and condescending posture. She looked down at Su Xian and her voice became softer:
"Are you that Su Zhe? The one who is proficient in the Nine Needles of Huiyang?"
"Su Zhe, a common man, pays his respects to the noble concubine."
Su Xian felt very strange in his heart.
First of all, he was keenly aware that Concubine Tang had a better attitude after learning that he was Su Zhe, or that he was proficient in Huiyang Nine Needles.
At the same time, Tang Guifei's irresistible temptation towards him also weakened a lot.
Could it be an illusion?
Concubine Tang nodded, but then she blinked, looked Su Xian up and down, and said with a smile: "So you're not a palace eunuch, no wonder you... dare to be so rude!"
Su Xian subconsciously looked up, and the moment his eyes came into contact with Tang Guifei's eyes, his heart beat violently again.
The allure of Tang Guifei seemed to be back, but this time it was much softer, unlike before, where there was a sense of danger of falling into a dream and being unable to wake up.
To be honest, the experience of your heart racing and your blood boiling is a wonderful one.
He was so immersed in this wonderful experience that he almost couldn't extricate himself.
But suddenly, he remembered that this was the Chu Palace, and the lady opposite was the Emperor of Chu's concubine. It seemed inappropriate for him to look at others unscrupulously here.
Just when he was about to look away, he remembered again, Emperor Chu's noble concubine?
Haha, if it were someone else, that would be fine. Since she is the concubine of Emperor Chu, out of revenge for Emperor Chu, he would not be polite. Just watch it with confidence!
"interesting!"
Not only was Tang Guifei not angry, but she also smiled brightly and said, "This is the first time I have seen such a rude person like you since entering the palace."
Liu Fuquan, who was kneeling on the ground, felt something was wrong after hearing these words. He stood up and looked at Su Xian, and he was immediately frightened to the point of death.
He stepped in front of Su Xian, nodded and bowed to Concubine Tang, and said: "Concubine Tang, please atone for your sins. Mr. Su is entering the palace for the first time. He doesn't understand the rules. Please be magnanimous..."
"snort!"
Concubine Tang snorted coldly and walked past with the eunuch and maid behind her with delicate steps.
When she passed by Su Xian, she turned her head without any warning, looked at Su Xian, and smiled sweetly, with an indescribable meaning in her cool eyes.
Su Xian also looked sideways. The moment their eyes met, he inevitably opened his mouth slightly and took a deep breath...
After a quick glance, Concubine Tang walked away quickly with the others.
Judging from their direction, they should be going to visit the Queen Mother.
"Master Su, let's get out of the palace quickly."
Liu Fuquan waved his sleeves to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead and quickly led the way.
"good."
Su Xian followed slowly.
Along the way, Concubine Tang's voice and smile always appeared before his eyes.
By this time, he was very calm.
In fact, in terms of external appearance, Princess Lanling, Tang Shuwan, Chen Keyan, Zhang Meiniang and other girls are slightly better than Concubine Tang.
Or in some ways, they are indistinguishable from each other and each has his or her own merits.
However, in terms of inner temperament, Concubine Tang is so special.
Her every move, word and smile, as well as her expression, eyes, etc., combined into a whole, have an indescribable attraction!
There must be something weird about this bitch!
Su Xian analyzed calmly.
I learned from Wang Mo the day before yesterday that the autobiography of the late Emperor of Southern Chu seemed to be in the hands of Concubine Tang.
It seemed that she was bound to have some dealings with Concubine Tang.
If we can uncover the secrets of Concubine Tang in the process of searching for that autobiography, it will be a worthwhile trip.
…
Leave the harem and return to the Yaowang Palace where you are temporarily staying.
boom!
The moment the door closes.
Yang Zhilan turned around, looked at Su Xian, and said calmly and calmly: "I know the details of Concubine Tang!"
Zhou Wei also ran over at this time, grabbed Su Xian's arm, and shouted loudly: "Brother, Yang Nuxia, you are finally back..."
"Do you know her details?"
Su Xian was shocked and overjoyed at the same time. He shook off Zhou Wei's pull, grabbed Yang Zhilan's thin shoulders with both hands, and said excitedly:
"I have a hunch that Concubine Tang is an important person. Zhilan, if you know anything, tell me quickly."
It was said that after Zhou Wei was thrown away, he didn't take it seriously. He approached him with a smile on his face and said with a smile: "Senior brother, Yang Nuxia, if you have anything to do, let's talk about it inside the house. Be careful that the walls have ears."
Su Xian finally turned to look at Zhou Wei, nodded and said: "Junior brother's words are reasonable. Let's talk about it after we enter the room. Be careful that the walls have ears."
"good."
Su Xian pulled Yang Zhilan and walked quickly to the main hall of Yaowang Palace.
Zhou Wei thought he had "made a great contribution" and followed him with great energy. However, when Su Xian brought Yang Zhilan into the house, he turned around and stopped him, and ordered:
"Junior Brother, in order to prevent the wall from having ears, please ask me, Junior Brother, to guard outside."
As soon as he finished speaking, without waiting for Zhou Wei's reaction, Su Xian closed the door with a bang.
Zhou Wei was stunned outside the room, motionless, and the smile at the corner of his mouth slowly disappeared...
Inside the palace.
"Zhi Lan, tell me quickly, what's so weird about Concubine Tang?" Su Xian asked immediately after closing the door.
"Tang Guifei should belong to a mysterious Jianghu sect in the southern part of Jiannan Road and the hinterland of central Guizhou." Yang Zhilan replied calmly.
"Mysterious martial arts sect? Do you know more specific information?"
"A long time ago, I was ordered to go deep into central Guizhou to perform a certain mission, and I had some dealings with this sect. After I came back, I read through the classics collected by the inner guards, and finally determined that the name of that sect is the 'Celestial Silkworm Sect'! "
"Celestial Silkworm Cult? It's interesting."
"That territory has high mountains and far distances, and has always been mysterious. According to the records of the Imperial Guard, the Heavenly Silkworm Sect has existed for thousands of years... The strange thing is that they almost never leave that territory, but why do their people appear in the south? Chu Palace?"
Su Xian frowned and asked:
"There must be something weird here, but the Nanchu incident has nothing to do with us. I'm just curious, Zhilan, how did you determine that Tang Guifei is a member of the Tiancan God Cult?"
"Because of 'charm'!"
"Charm?!" Su Xian twitched the corner of his mouth.
"Yes, I think the young master must have felt it just now." Yang Zhilan raised his hand and pointed at Su Xian's shoulder.
Su Xian understood. When he met Tang Guifei just outside the Queen Mother's palace, he felt that the feeling was abnormal. If Yang Zhilan hadn't pinched his shoulder gently, he didn't know what would have happened.
"Is there really such a mysterious thing in the world?" Su Xian said it was difficult to understand.
"Yes, but most of them are concentrated in that mysterious territory. According to legend, those who can practice the art of charm must meet three conditions at the same time. One of them is indispensable."
"What three conditions?"
"First, he must be the direct bloodline of the first leader of the Celestial Silkworm Religion. Second, he must be naturally charming. Third, he must also raise Love Gu."
"That means that Concubine Tang has an extraordinary status in the Tiancan God Sect?" Su Xian guessed, and then said:
"No wonder, I always feel that Concubine Tang...well, it is extremely rare for a woman to be naturally charming, and with the blessing of Love Gu and Charming Arts, Concubine Tang is going to defy the heavens!"
"However, Concubine Tang's charm skills must have just been practiced recently and are not yet mature."
"Why?"
"Because she can't move freely yet. In the harem, there are usually only eunuchs and maids. Concubine Tang can practice at any time, but if she encounters... such as the young master, problems will easily arise."
Su Xian nodded, and then another question popped up:
"But according to what you said, Emperor Chu's favorite... should be Concubine Tang, but why the queen? Emperor Chu is the only man who can freely enter and exit the harem."
Yang Zhilan replied:
"Emperor Chu, he must have been confused by Concubine Tang. This is the primary effect of the charm technique. Although Concubine Tang has just practiced it, it should not be difficult to confuse Emperor Chu."
"That's it...it seems that Concubine Tang must have some agenda when she is in Emperor Chu's harem. I hope it won't conflict with our plan."
Su Xian's brows suddenly wrinkled again:
"That charm technique does have some skills. Since it can confuse Emperor Chu, then I will also be tricked... Unfortunately, in order to find the autobiography, we have to deal with Concubine Tang!"
"Master, don't worry."
Yang Zhilan's face remained calm and said:
"The charm technique of the Tiancan God Sect is not uncontrollable, but it is actually a kind of poison. Furthermore, Tang Guifei's charm technique is not very skilled yet. I have a way to solve it."
"What can I do?" Su Xian was shocked. When dealing with Concubine Tang, if he could avoid the temptation of Concubine Tang, he would be invincible!
"A simple prescription, I saw it from the classics collected by the Imperial Guard. It is said that this prescription was written by a famous doctor."
"Famous doctor?"
"Well, that famous doctor is...Butterfly Valley's miracle doctor Li Qingniu!"
"Is it that bad old man?!" Su Xian was in disbelief, and then smiled: "Then this is a coincidence. I believe that with the old man's ability, it should not be difficult to break Tang Guifei's charm."
"only……"
The smile on Su Xian's lips dropped again, his face changed slightly, and he sighed: "It's just that that bad old man is far away in Daliang Shendu, where can we find the needed medicinal materials?"
Yang Zhilan glanced at the closed door and said:
"Zhou Wei has it on his body."
"..."
Outside the main hall.
Zhou Wei was bored and lazy, sitting on the stone steps in front of the palace, holding his chin in his hands, motionless.
The senior brother and Yang Nuxia obviously wanted to discuss important matters, but the senior brother did not let him in to listen. This made him very hurt and felt like being "abandoned."
Squeak!
Suddenly, there was the sound of the door axis turning from behind.
Zhou Wei looked back and saw that the closed door had indeed been opened. Su Xian waved to him from inside: "Junior brother, come in. There is a big event that you must participate in!"
"okay!"
Zhou Wei jumped three feet high and was suddenly full of energy. He knew that his senior brother would not forget him and that he, Zhou Wei, would still need to take action when encountering big problems.
After entering the room, he rubbed his hands eagerly and asked with a smile: "Senior brother, what big thing needs my participation? Senior brother, just ask me!"
"First take off all the bottles and jars on your body and put them on this table." Su Xian pointed to the large round table in the middle of the hall.
"no problem!"
Zhou Wei was in high spirits. After a clanging sound, there were more than a hundred small porcelain bottles as big as thumbs piled on the table.
"Brother, everything is here, what should I do next?" Zhou Wei put his hands on his hips, full of energy, and looked like he was ready for a big fight.
"oh."
Su Xian picked the small porcelain vase on the table. Without even looking at Zhou Wei, he just pointed outside the room and said, "Your business is done. Go out and continue to guard. Be careful that the walls have ears!"
"ah?!"
Zhou Wei was stunned, stunned on the spot, at a loss.
The senior brother asked him to come into the house and said that there was a big thing for him to do. It turned out that the big thing was... to take off all the small porcelain bottles on his body?
"What are you doing standing still? Go quickly!" Su Xian urged.
"oh……"
Zhou Wei scratched his head hard and slowly turned around and walked out of the house. Of course, he followed Su Xian's instructions and closed the door.
…
inside the house.
Su Xian has picked out a pile of small porcelain vases, five in total.
Yang Zhilan pulled out the stoppers one by one and poured the five pills into the palm of his hand. After observing them carefully, he nodded and said, "Yes, these are the five pills."
"Then I'll eat it first."
Su Xian directly held Yang Zhilan's little hand, using it as a "medicine bowl", and poured it directly into it. After swallowing the five pills in one gulp, he served them with tea.
"Master..." Yang Zhilan was a little nervous.
"What are you afraid of? I believe you." Su Xian said with a smile. Seeing Yang Zhilan hesitate to speak, he smiled and asked, "Are you afraid that I will have eating problems?"
"That's not true...Young Master should be more cautious."
"Why should I be cautious about you?"
"Young Master..." Yang Zhilan lowered her head, unable to bear Su Xian's burning gaze.
"Ouch!"
Su Xian suddenly screamed strangely.
Yang Zhilan's heart trembled, and she hurriedly supported Su Xian, with a slight panic in her eyes, and asked: "Sir, what's wrong with you? Could it be that medicine..."
"broken!"
Su Xian hugged Yang Zhilan, looking like he was "feeling weak after taking poison", and said, "I may have been poisoned!"
This frightened Yang Zhilan so much that she hurriedly went to find the antidote.
But Su Xian held her tightly and said, "There is no cure for my poison, because I was poisoned by your... love poison!"
"Sir, you..."
Yang Zhilan suddenly realized that Su Xian was playing tricks and was not really poisoned. Although her face remained expressionless, she felt relieved.
Immediately, an indescribable emotion filled her body.
She liked this feeling, but was also afraid of it, and wanted to retreat... If she hadn't wanted to maintain her reputation as the number one female assassin in the inner guard, she would have pushed Su Xian away and ran aside.
"There is a way to cure this poison."
Su Xian still hugged Yang Zhilan and looked directly into her eyes.
After such a long period of "feeding", although Yang Zhilan is still thin and not as good as Tang Shuwan, Chen Keyan and others in terms of appearance, she is quite moving if you look closely.
"any solution?"
"Simple, just give me a kiss."
Yang Zhilan almost stopped, but she suddenly remembered that when she was in Youzhou, she promised to be Su Xian's woman, and finally she slowly closed her eyes.
Su Xian saw the opportunity and leaned forward.
…
Throughout the rest of the day, no one came to Yaowang Palace again.
Emperor Chu must be really busy and never sent anyone to disturb them.
Only towards dusk, Liu Fuquan came and asked Su Xian to enter the palace to diagnose the Queen Mother's pulse. The nine Huiyang needles were indeed effective, and the Queen Mother's condition gradually improved.
Other than that, nothing else.
Su Xian and the others took advantage of the daytime to rest. They didn't sleep all night last night. Moreover, they had to take action after midnight tonight, so they had to replenish their energy...
Finally, it was midnight.
The whole palace was quiet.
Everything is quiet.
Su Xian, Yang Zhilan, and Zhou Wei were all ready.
It's time to explore the harem at night and steal all the concubines... No, it's time to explore the harem at night and look for the autobiography of the late Emperor of Southern Chu!
