Unexpectedly.
Su Xian and the others had just set off and walked out of the hall.
Then I heard the sounds of fighting and scolding coming from the east side.
That's... the wall of Miyagi!
The three of them immediately stopped and turned around to look. They saw dim firelight on the tall and towering female wall, and several black figures huddled together, making it impossible to tell who was who.
"Someone broke into the palace at night?" Zhou Wei was surprised.
"The person who dared to break into the palace must not be simple. Maybe it is related to the group of black-clothed and masked men last night..." Su Xian suddenly paused here, as if he had caught some inspiration.
Yang Zhilan and Zhou Wei both turned to look at him, waiting for the next words.
After a few breaths, Su Xian raised his eyebrows, looked at Yang Zhilan and said with a smile, "I remember you once said that those masked men in black came from the southwest mountainous area?"
"Not bad." Yang Zhilan nodded.
"I'm wondering if they have anything to do with Concubine Tang?" Su Xian looked thoughtful.
Yang Zhilan's eyes narrowed when she heard this. She instantly understood what Su Xian meant. The masked man in black came from the mountainous area of southwest China, and Concubine Tang Guifei came from the Tiancan God Sect in central Guizhou, which is also a mountainous area in the southwest...
There must be some connection between the two of them!
"Senior brother, Miss Yang, what are you talking about?"
Zhou Wei was nearby and couldn't understand anything. He was so anxious that he scratched his head and scratched his head.
Su Xian ignored Zhou Wei, only looked at Yang Zhilan and ordered:
"Let's suspend our operations first, Zhi Lan. You go out in person to see their situation. It would be best if you can find out the identity of the person who broke into the palace at night."
"Yes." Yang Zhilan accepted the order, tapped the ground lightly with her jade feet, flew up to the eaves and disappeared.
"Senior brother..." Zhou Wei had a question mark on his face.
"Junior brother, don't be anxious. Let's go back first and let me explain to you slowly." Su Xian turned around and returned to the main hall of Medicine King Palace.
"Okay." Zhou Wei followed back to the main hall and immediately asked, "Senior brother, can you tell me now."
Su Xian poured a cup of tea and sipped it slowly. He raised his buttocks and sat on the chair, leaning on the back of the chair comfortably. He turned to look at Zhou Wei with a puzzled look on his face:
"Junior brother, what are you talking about? What are you telling me?"
"Senior brother..."
"Okay, okay, I understand, I understand. Sit down first, drink a cup of tea and listen to me slowly." Su Xian poured him a cup of tea himself.
"Okay." Zhou Wei had no choice but to sit down, took Su Xian's tea and took a sip.
"By the way, junior brother, do you have any anti-worm medicine with you?" Su Xian suddenly asked.
"Anthelmintic medicine?" Zhou Wei hurriedly groped for a while, took out a small porcelain bottle the size of a thumb, and handed it to Su Xian: "This is it. Master prepared it himself. No matter what kind of mosquitoes are afraid of this, .”
"Is it so powerful?" Su Xian took it and put it away next to him. It might be useful when he goes to Tang Guifei's territory later.
"Senior brother, can you tell me now? What exactly is that thing you and Yang Nuxia talked about?" Zhou Wei immediately asked.
"Since you want to know why there are so many stars in the sky, I can tell you now..."
"puff!"
Zhou Wei spat out a mouthful of tea, coughed violently, and looked at Su Xian helplessly, his facial muscles twitching crazily.
After finally regaining his composure, he stared at Su Xian and said loudly:
"Senior brother, you...you...you...tell me, I'm really curious about why there are so many stars in the sky?"
"..."
In this way, Su Xian helped Zhou Wei "popularize science".
He spoke very mysteriously.
Zhou Wei was even more confused when he heard it, but he listened extremely seriously. What he enjoyed was the pleasure of "knowledge flowing into the brain from the left and flowing out from the right."
After some time.
Zhou Wei was "intoxicated" when he heard that Yang Zhilan suddenly came back.
Su Xian immediately left Zhou Wei behind, stood up and went over to greet him, asking with concern: "Are you not injured or discovered?"
"No." Yang Zhilan shook his head gently.
"That's good. Have you ever found out who that person is?"
"It was too dark, I didn't dare to get too close, and besides, they were just fighting and not talking, so..." Yang Zhilan lowered his head, his thin body a little stiff and nervous.
"That's it." Su Xian didn't care and waved his hand: "It doesn't matter, it's not a big deal."
After hearing this, Yang Zhilan felt inexplicably relaxed. She suddenly realized that Su Xian was not the leader of the small pavilion and would not punish her...
"Sir, although I didn't find out the identity of that person, I picked up something."
Yang Zhilan took out something from her close-fitting clothes and handed it over with both hands.
Su Xian said "Oh" and reached out to take it. The moment he took it, he felt that this thing didn't look big, but it was very heavy and he almost fell out of his hand.
"What's this?"
Su Xian took a closer look and saw that it was an object that looked like a token. It was slender and round, about four inches long, two inches wide, and less than half an inch thick. If the weight of the object was not taken into consideration, it would be difficult to hold it in the hands of future generations. Cell phones are almost the same.
This object is completely carbon black, has an excellent texture, and is cold in the hand. It is obviously a unique metal.
On the front of the token, there are three large characters engraved on it: "Godly Silkworm Order". There are decorative patterns around the characters, which exudes a simple and mysterious atmosphere.
On the back, there are three unknown symbols, which look like a kind of text, and there are also a few lines of small words, which are also in an unknown font.
"The Divine Silkworm Order?"
Su Xian took the token and looked at it over and over. His eyes flashed and he made eye contact with Yang Zhilan.
Since this object is called the Divine Silkworm Order, it goes without saying that it must be closely related to the Heavenly Silkworm God Sect. In other words, the person who broke into the palace at night was a member of the Heavenly Silkworm God Sect.
Another question arises here. Since that person is from the Tiancan God Sect, if he needs to enter the palace, wouldn't it be enough to contact Concubine Tang directly? Why are you trespassing?
Could it be that Concubine Tang has been lurking in the Nanchu Palace for so long, but she still hasn't developed her own power?
"Brother, what is this?"
Zhou Wei came over and stared at Shen Can Ling again and again. He had more doubts in his heart, so he kept scratching his head with confusion in his eyes.
Su Xian directly put the Divine Silkworm Order close to his body, calmed down, looked at Yang Zhilan and asked:
"By the way, what was the final result of that person? Did he escape or was he caught?"
"That man was not weak, but he was outnumbered by the palace masters. After fighting for a while, he fled far away. The Divine Silkworm Token also fell from this man." Yang Zhilan replied.
"Then ignore him and let's continue our actions." Su Xian raised his feet and walked out.
Zhou Wei grabbed him and said, "Brother, if that person breaks into the palace at night, the palace must be on guard. If we go to the harem again... I'm afraid it won't be appropriate."
Su Xian patted his thick shoulder and said with a smile:
"It doesn't matter, they only strengthened the security outside the palace. As for the palace, they must not have expected our presence! Let's go!"
"oh."
"..."
As expected, the security inside the palace was not specially strengthened.
Yang Zhilan was carrying Su Xian on his back, followed by the Queen of Zhou Wei Palace. In a few ups and downs, they had gone deep into the harem and arrived at the palace where Concubine Tang lived - the Hot Spring Palace.
They did not sneak in directly, but sent Yang Zhilan to explore the way first.
Not long after, Yang Zhilan returned and said: "There is indeed something strange in the Hot Spring Palace. I noticed that there are several masters, but they are all inferior to me and Zhou Wei."
"That's it."
Su Xian turned to look at Zhou Wei and ordered: "Junior brother, in order to prevent accidents, you should stay outside the Hot Spring Palace to receive us. There is no need to go in."
Zhou Wei looked shocked, stared at Su Xian, and lowered his voice: "Brother, are you really going to avoid me and steal Emperor Chu's Concubine Tang?"
"What nonsense!"
A black line appeared on Su Xian's forehead. He punched Zhou Wei lightly and said, "When it comes to sneaking in, Zhi Lan is more experienced than you. Just stay on guard outside and don't startle the snake."
"Senior brother, just go ahead with peace of mind. Hehe, junior brother, I will keep you outside for a while."
Zhou Wei had a strange smile on his face.
Su Xian was too lazy to pay attention to him, and quietly sneaked into the hot spring palace with Yang Zhilan...
In fact, if it weren't for the fact that this mission was to find the autobiography of the late Emperor of Southern Chu, Su Xian could have simply not come and just wait in the Palace of Medicine King.
Just because Yang Zhilan felt dizzy when reading a book. What if Tang Guifei collected many books? If you are dazzled, wouldn't it be a waste of time?
So Su Xian decided to go there in person...
Late at night.
It was quiet in the hot spring palace.
After Su Xian and Yang Zhilan sneaked in, they used the cover of darkness to find a suspected study location.
"This is it, let's go in and take a look first." Su Xian lowered his voice.
Yang Zhilan nodded, holding the door gently with both hands, preparing to push it open slowly.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, a eunuch's shrill voice came from two or three yards away, resounding throughout the world: "Your Majesty has arrived!"
Su Xian was startled and hurriedly stopped Yang Zhilan: "It's so late, why is Emperor Chu coming here? Let's hide first and wait and see what happens."
"Um."
Yang Zhilan nodded and took Su Xian into the darkness.
With the arrival of Emperor Chu, the Hot Spring Palace, which had been quiet just now, suddenly became lively.
The palace maids and eunuchs quickly got up and got ready to welcome the holy driver. People came and went in the hot spring palace.
There was darkness at the top of a certain corridor. Su Xian and Yang Zhilan were hiding here. They held their breath and silently watched the palace maids and eunuchs walking back and forth in the corridor.
"Come so late!"
Suddenly, a cold voice came from the end of the corridor.
Su Xian sounded familiar, and looked sideways slightly. It turned out to be Concubine Tang. As a concubine of the harem, she naturally needed to pick her up at the entrance of the Hot Spring Palace in person.
The moment Su Xian saw Concubine Tang, his heart still beat hard.
However, it was not as serious as this morning, probably because he took medicine, which offset most of the "poison" emitted by Concubine Tang.
Furthermore, Concubine Tang did not know that he was hiding here and did not use any charms on him.
It's so late, why is Concubine Tang still wearing makeup? Her hair accessories were not removed, her clothes were as neat as they were during the day, and she didn't look like she had just gotten up from the bed... Su Xian gradually became confused.
In other words, Concubine Tang did not sleep at all in the middle of the night!
So what is she doing?
At this time, Concubine Tang and a group of palace maids and eunuchs were walking along the corridor and passed by Su Xian and Yang Zhilan.
Su Xian breathed a sigh of relief slowly. As long as Tang Guifei led the people over, they could relax, at least they wouldn't have to hold their breath anymore.
However, something that made Su Xian shrink back finally happened -
Concubine Tang unexpectedly stopped in her tracks.
It stopped under Su Xian and Yang Zhilan!
Su Xian's heart was in his throat, and his scalp was numb. What was going on? Could it be that Concubine Tang discovered them? If it is discovered, the situation will not be pretty.
"That's all, let's get in first and then talk! Annoying!"
Tang Guifei lifted her jade feet lightly and continued to walk forward. Although her voice to herself was full of irritability and indifference, Su Xian always felt full of charm in her ears.
It is really not easy for a woman who has practiced the art of bewitching... Su Xian felt relieved.
It turned out that Concubine Tang didn't stop there because she discovered them.
But he was hesitating whether to welcome Emperor Chu into the palace.
In the blink of an eye, Concubine Tang and her entourage were gone.
The surroundings became quiet again, and there was silence.
Su Xian breathed in the fresh air, turned his head to look at Yang Zhilan, and asked in a low voice: "Tell me, why did Emperor Chu stay up so late at night and come to see Concubine Tang?"
Yang Zhilan shook his head.
"Concubine Tang is also very strange. Judging from her makeup and clothing, it's obvious that she didn't sleep most of the night... These people are really strange, they are almost like night owls."
Su Xian shook his head.
The probe glanced at the sky, then looked at Yang Zhilan:
"Emperor Chu and Concubine Tang don't know how long they will be tossing it. Let's make peace with it now that we're here. I'm afraid we have to wait a little longer. Hey, I really hope to find that book early and go back to sleep."
After Su Xian said this, he always felt that something was wrong, but he frowned and thought for a long time, but couldn't remember...
At this time, voices came from afar.
It turned out that Concubine Tang had already welcomed Emperor Chu into the palace. After a while of greetings, they both went to a room. Looking at the layout of the palace, it should be Concubine Tang's bedroom.
In the darkness, at the top of the corridor, Su Xian held his chin with his hand, rolled his eyes, and suddenly turned to look at Yang Zhilan:
"Zhi Lan, why do you think they went to the dormitory in the middle of the night?"
"I don't know."
Yang Zhilan actually thought of a possibility, but was embarrassed to say it.
Concubine Tang is the concubine of Emperor Chu. Emperor Chu came over in the middle of the night, and the two of them walked into the bedroom together. What do you think they were going to do?
Isn't this something obvious?
"Let's go take a look." Su Xian suddenly suggested.
"this……"
Yang Zhilan was speechless for a moment, what's so good about that kind of thing? She thought to herself, the young master is causing trouble again... Sure enough, lust is a man's nature!
Su Xian, however, had a calm look on his face. He didn't seem to notice anything wrong and continued to analyze carefully:
"Emperor Chu and Concubine Tang are both weird. If we eavesdrop on their conversation, we will definitely get important information."
"Oh well."
Yang Zhilan would not refuse Su Xian.
Even if he knew Su Xian was going to do bad things.
So, under the cover of darkness, Yang Zhilan took Su Xian to the roof of Concubine Tang's dormitory in a few ups and downs.
"I wonder what the two of them are doing inside?"
After Su Xian stood firm on the roof, he looked around and said with a smile:
"They actually took away all the expert guards, as well as the palace maids and eunuchs. There is no one within half a mile, which is very convenient for us!"
Without making a sound, Yang Zhilan knelt down and carefully uncovered a tile, and the faint light in the room suddenly came out.
Su Xian immediately put his head over and peeked through the hole... Oh no, it should be observation.
Yang Zhilan realized what was going on below and took the initiative to step aside, not wanting to watch.
"Zhilan."
Su Xian lowered his voice. He leaned over the hole, and the dim light from the room illuminated his handsome, weird side face.
At the same time, he pulled Yang Zhilan with his hand and said, "Come and see, has Emperor Chu fallen under Concubine Tang's charm? It's as if he has completely changed."
"Charm?" Although Yang Zhilan was confused, she still didn't dare to look.
"It's okay, Emperor Chu is wearing clothes, come and see." Su Xian urged.
Yang Zhilan breathed a sigh of relief and took a closer look. He saw Emperor Chu in a bright yellow dragon robe, holding a pillar and doing crazy and indescribable movements, as if he was having epilepsy. , looking intoxicated.
On the other side, Concubine Tang was neatly dressed, with her back to the Emperor of Chu, sitting on a chair with a cup of tea.
Judging from her face, she seemed to be extremely disgusted with what happened behind her, but she was helpless.
After a while, Emperor Chu slowly fell to the ground, as if all his strength had been drained.
Concubine Tang stood up, squatted in front of Emperor Chu, took out a pendant-like object from nowhere, swung it like a pendulum in front of Emperor Chu's eyes, and said in a voice full of magic and charm:
"You are the Emperor of Chu, and your favorite person is the queen. Concubine Tang is the fairy in your mind. You must not blaspheme her. You are ashamed of yourself and cannot reach such high places... Go back and don't come back in the near future."
"yes!"
Emperor Chu slowly got up and walked out the door slowly like a puppet on strings.
roof.
After Su Xian observed this scene, his heart was shocked. He might have understood what Tang Guifei's so-called "charm skills" were!
He couldn't help but think of something called "**water" in later generations. The poison of Tang Guifei's love poison should have similar effects.
