Traveling to the ancient harem

Chapter 417: Someone Arrives Late at Night at Yihua Palace

Ningyuxuan.

Hongdou looked at Hongyue who was smiling at her in a fawning manner in the dim light of the lanterns in the corridor.

Because of Huangye's instructions, Hongdou usually did not show any particular dislike for Hongyue.

So Hongyue thought that she, like Xiaojuan, had a say in front of Hongdou.

"It's so late, why aren't you asleep yet?"

Anko asked calmly.

"I made a purse for you and wanted to give it to you..."

Hongyue shyly spread out the purse in her hand in her palm for Hongdou to see.

Hongdou could tell at a glance that it was Hongyue who had been carefully dressed up.

There's something else she doesn't understand.

This Hongyue's information is a bit inaccurate. Could it be that she thinks that the Emperor is still in the Empress's bedroom?

That’s right, when the emperor left just now, no one saw Ning Yuxuan off.

So she doesn't know.

This made her feel that she could meet the emperor by offering a purse as a gift.

And then make the emperor look at her differently?

Isn't she dreaming?

She didn't even pee and look in the mirror. How could the emperor even look at her in such a horrible state?

Don’t tell me that the emperor already knew her background, okay?

"The queen has gone to bed. You can send the purse tomorrow."

Hongdou endured it in her heart and spoke in a gentle voice.

"Yes, thank you, Sister Hongdou."

Hongyue looked at Huangye's door with disappointment, then went to her own bedroom at the back with a lost look.

"This Hongyue has a big heart..."

Fanghua and Xiao Xiangzi walked out and said while looking at Hongyue's back.

"Aunt, should we remind the queen to just kill this Hongyue?"

Ever since Xiao Xiangzi knew Hongyue's identity, he has been particularly disliked towards her.

It was just that he was restrained by Huang Ye, so he didn't show it so obviously.

"Do you think the Queen doesn't know that she is a hidden danger? Letting her live is just to lure the snake out of its hole..."

Fanghua now admires her queen from the bottom of her heart.

Letting Hongyue stay in Ningyuxuan well will be of great help.

"When I'm not in the yard, you must keep a close eye on her and not let her take advantage of any opportunity."

Fanghua instructed Xiao Xiangzi.

"Don't worry, auntie. Xiao Xiangzi knows."

Yihua Hall.

That night, Yihua Hall also welcomed an uninvited guest.

In the evening, Concubine Liang took the jade pendant in her hand and played with it as usual.

After playing with it for a while, she put the jade pendant back to its place and went to bed.

While she was sleeping soundly, a man quietly climbed in through the window of her bedroom.

If Concubine Lin were still alive, she would definitely recognize that this person was the one who broke Aunt Yan's neck.

The man tore off the black cloth covering his face, revealing a face as gentle as jade.

He walked to Concubine Liang's bed and gently pushed her who was sleeping soundly.

Concubine Liang was pushed by him and opened her eyes in a daze.

With the light of the only candle in the room, Concubine Liang saw clearly the person who pushed her.

this person…

Looking at the face in front of her that she had been thinking about for a long time, she thought she was still dreaming.

"You...I'm not still dreaming, am I?"

Concubine Liang reached out and touched the face that was bent down, muttering.

It seems like I’m not dreaming, this face has warmth.

She sat up in surprise.

"Hu Lang, is it really you? How did you get in?"

When did it become so easy to enter the imperial palace of the Great Xia Dynasty?

Only then did the visitor feel relieved.

It seems that this woman has not forgotten him, so his task today will be much easier.

"it's me…"

The visitor's voice was as gentle as always.

She gently held the surprised woman in front of her in her arms.

"In order to be able to enter the palace to see you, I have practiced martial arts hard over the years, and now I have finally achieved my wish."

"Hu Lang, I miss you so much, can you take me away?"

Concubine Liang sobbed softly.

"Soon, soon we will be together. You also know about the war between our Nanzhao Kingdom and the Great Xia Dynasty, right?"

Princess Liang nodded. This matter was not a secret, of course she knew it.

She prayed in her heart every day, praying that Nan Zhao would win a great victory.

That way she could be reunited with her loved ones.

"We sent troops together with the Prince of Zhennan, but the results were still not ideal. The Great Xia Dynasty was too powerful..."

The visitor sighed softly.

"What should we do? When can we be together legitimately?"

The person in front of me has made a promise.

As long as the Nanzhao Kingdom annexed the Great Xia Dynasty, he would marry her with a phoenix crown and a red bridal robe.

"Now there is only one way."

The visitor held up Concubine Liang's face, looked into her eyes and spoke.

"any solution?"

Concubine Liang asked blankly.

"Kill the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty, and the Great Xia Dynasty will fall apart..."

The person who came had a face as gentle as jade and said the most vicious words in the world.

"Kill him?"

Concubine Liang almost screamed.

Can the emperor be killed so easily?

Didn’t you see that Concubine Shu put in so much effort, but still failed?

"In fact, it is very simple to kill the emperor. I just don't know if you can do it?"

The person who came said that killing the emperor was as easy as deciding what to eat today.

"But…"

Concubine Liang was a little hesitant.

The emperor treated her well, and subconsciously, she didn't want the emperor to die.

"Don't you want us to be together as soon as possible?"

There was some grievance on the visitor's gentle face, and he asked gently.

"I dream of being with you..."

How could Concubine Liang bear to see her beloved being wronged, so she blurted out the answer without thinking.

"You are mine, I won't hurt you."

The visitor hugged Concubine Liang again and whispered in her ear.

Concubine Liang felt that she was surrounded by his tenderness and she felt very happy.

"What did you want me to do?"

Hearing her question, the visitor felt that his performance was not in vain.

"I have brought a kind of poison. This poison is colorless and tasteless. You must find a way to make the emperor eat it..."

"Then I can't survive either?"

Concubine Liang was not stupid. If the emperor died on the spot, she would be caught red-handed.

"Silly boy, how can I hurt you? I still want to spend my whole life with you?"

The visitor kissed her forehead tenderly.

"This poison will not take effect immediately, but will cause sudden death after three days..."

The visitor's voice sounded somewhat proud.

"Even the most skilled imperial physician could not find out the cause of death."

Princess Liang was relieved.

She took the small paper bag he handed her and placed it on the dressing table.

A question suddenly occurred to her.

"Didn't you say that there is no antidote for the poison given to the eldest prince? Why do I feel like he's already recovered?"

"impossible."

The visitor spoke with absolute certainty.

Even they could only make the poison but not the antidote for that kind of poison.

"But the eldest prince is really well now. He can still run on the road now."

Princess Liang also found this matter very strange.

The visitor couldn't help but think of Jian Yuehuan, who was given to the second young master of the Huang family.

Wasn’t that poison also inexplicably cured?
