After leaving the bandit village, Yang Jian and others continued to rush their way, and were now in a remote town. Before entering the city, Yang Jian and the other two saw a wanted order with their appearance outside the city gate, and thought to themselves that they were troublesome. Fortunately, Wei Xiaokuan knew a little. The three of them successfully got into the city through disguise and found a small inn to stay in, trying to repair the town for a few days, and secretly inquire about some information and recruit talents.

When he received the address, Dugu Jialuo rushed there without stopping. When he passed by the bandit village, Dugu Jialuo hesitated for a while and chose to go in and take a look. He had been traveling for nearly a day, and even if he didn't eat water, the horse could not stop eating.

Without those deserters, Dugu Jialuo could no longer feel the breath of any living person in the bandit village. This made Dugu Jialuo feel a little strange. Even if the deserters had left the bandit village, Mrs. Luo was still in this village.

Could it be...

Thinking of this, Dugu Jialuo's heart sank.

Walking through the injured woods, just as I thought I had reached the end, an ancient house appeared in front of Dugu Jialuo. Dugu Jialuo looked at the old house that was not as tall and majestic, but also majestic, and went forward to knock on the door, without any movement. Dugu Jialuo reached out and pushed it gently, and found that the door was open.

As soon as I entered the ancient house, Dugu Jialuo smelled a rotten smell mixed with unknown sandalwood. He frowned and walked inward. Dugu Jialuo saw a scroll hanging on the wall. He couldn't help but be attracted by the woman who looked like a fairy in the painting. He sighed in his heart that such a beautiful woman could only appear in the scroll!

Continue walking inward, I saw that the ground was covered with pieces of porcelain, and the pieces were stained with dried blood. Not only the pieces, but also the floor was dark. The smell of rotten smell became more and more intense. Dugu Jialuo frowned and raised the hanging lotus tent. The scene in the tent made Dugu Jialuo take a step back. He saw a skeleton with incomplete postures covered with maggots!

Suddenly, a slight hissing sound made Dugu Jialuo tense his nerves.

There seems to be some living thing lurking in this house...

I saw a flower in front of me, and several large flower snakes rushed towards Dugu Jialuo. Dugu Jialuo quickly avoided it. Seeing several poisons crawling out of the darkness of this ancient house, gradually forming a circle where Dugu Jialuo stood. Dugu Jialuo sneered, jumped up, and removed the hibiscus tent hanging on the bed.

He stood upside down and lay the hibiscus tent in his hand to the ground, quickly dragged it around the floor, then hooked the four corners of the hibiscus tent with his backhand to form a small bag, held the hole tightly, landed on the ground, took a larger wooden box, poured all the poison into it, covered the lid, and completed the action in one go.

After doing these things, Dugu Jialuo looked at the broken bones on the bed and the strange posture of a hand hanging on the edge of the bed, and suddenly realized a little.

He reached out and sucked the bright red brocade silk quilt neatly stacked beside the corpse, with a pair of mandarin ducks embroidered on it. He shook off the maggots on the silk quilt, and Dugu Jialuo gently covered the silk quilt on the bones.

"Madam Luo, rest in peace."

Dugu Jialuo said lightly, glanced at the box that was placed on the table with poisons, and finally decided to take it away. The poison that Mrs. Luo raised by herself must be of the best quality.

When passing by the painting again, Dugu Jialuo looked up again, feeling infinitely melancholy.

Since ancient times, beautiful women have been so poor that even a beautiful woman like Mrs. Luo can't escape the so-called love.

Dugu Jialuo left the ancient house and set fire to burn the entire house. Before he could see the ancient house burning to blue ash with his own eyes, Dugu Jialuo hurriedly continued on his way.

The blazing fire was burning and bursts of blue smoke came out. If someone had passed through the bandit village at this time, he might have seen the blue smoke floating to the sky. The clouds formed the appearance of a beautiful woman at some point, and the woman was smiling gently.

...

The weather was particularly clear that day, and the snow gradually faded away. Many people in the town were busy sweeping away the snow outside their homes. Yang Jian sat in the independent room of the inn, planning his next plan.

Knock--

Suddenly, the door of the wing room was knocked. Yang Jian thought it was Wei Xiaokuan and Hu Hai, and said lightly: "Just come in directly, Wei Xiaokuan and Hu Hai, what happened to you guys early in the morning?"

Knock--

No one answered, only the knock on the door that still remained unstoppable.

Could it be that Hu Hai and Wei Xiaokuan? Yang Jian asked in confusion: "Who is it?"

Knock--

The people outside the door still used knocking on his answer. Yang Jian stood up and opened the door with a little unhappy expression. After he saw clearly the person standing outside the door, the unhappiness on his face was swept away, and instead he was surprised, "You..."

"Mr. Xiao, long time no see." Dugu Jialuo looked at Yang Jian who was surprised after opening the door, looked at him with a smile on his lips, and said hello happily.

Yang Jian's first reaction was to hug the woman in front of him. As a result, his actions were one step faster than his thoughts, giving Dugu Jialuo a big hug, who had not had time to react, and whispered in Dugu Jialuo's ear: "Welcome back."

Yang Jian's body temperature was not too warm, which gave Dugu Jialuo a long-lost peace of mind. Dugu Jialuo felt that the frequency of his heart beat became abnormal, and his cheeks were a little hot.

Dugu Jialuo raised his hand and patted Yang Jian on the back. Yang Jian mistakenly thought that his behavior scared Dugu Jialuo, so he immediately let him go and coughed a few times awkwardly, "No, sorry, I'm out of my composure."

Hearing Yang Jian's apologetic expression, Dugu Jialuo smiled and said that he didn't care. "You..." Yang Jian wanted to ask why Dugu Jialuo suddenly appeared here, but seeing her coming all the way, she swallowed her words back and said, "After rushing for such a long way, you go and rest first, which room to live in?"

Dugu Jialuo pointed to the tail room, Yang Jian nodded and said that he knew. The two turned around and returned to their respective rooms, thinking about the not-so-sweet hug just now-

Inside the Daxing Palace

"I wish you a greeting to the Empress, and the Empress will be a thousand years old." Concubine Zhao Shu led all the concubines to Daxing Palace early in the morning to invite Queen Chen Xuanhua to the morning.

When the concubines behind saw that Zhao Shu was like this, they all knelt down and shouted in unison: "I wish the Empress a blessing to the Empress, and I wish the Empress a thousand years of life."

Although all the concubines who asked to rest assured maintained the etiquette in the palace, those with a little care could easily see that there was no respect in the eyes of these concubines in the harem.

After Yang Su took office, he replaced all the concubines in the harem, as big as the concubines, as young as the young and unpopular queen, and they were replaced. If these concubines were only over a month old, they would naturally be dissatisfied with this young queen. Chen Xuanhua was too lazy to bother with these intrigue women, but had to make a perfunctory smile on his face, "Sit down, all sisters don't need to be polite."

Concubine Zhao Shuli was the first to ask Chen Xuanhuali: "How is the Empress going to be happy in the near future?"

Chen Xuanhua tasted the tea in the cup, and his demeanor was very polite, "Where are all the sisters?"

Seeing Chen Xuanhua's question, Concubine De hurriedly answered: "Thank you for your concern. According to me, Concubine Zhao Shu always looked red recently, and she must have been favored by the emperor."

Concubine De's flattery made Concubine Zhao very helpful. She gently supported her high-carried hair and looked at Chen Xuanhua provocatively, "It's just a few days in a row. The emperor has a lot of things to do. We wives naturally have to serve the emperor well. However, we concubines are naturally not as leisurely as the Queen and mother like the Queen. Naturally, we concubines are not as good as us."

When Chen Xuanhua heard every thorny words from Concubine Zhao Shu, the smile on his face remained the same. Even though he was angry about Concubine Zhao Shu's words, he looked calm on the surface.

Seeing that Chen Xuanhua was not angry at all by his words, Concubine Zhao turned her face boredly and winked at Liu Zhaoyi beside her. Liu Zhaoyi understood it and said, "Empress, I have always been sleeping soundly recently. According to the eunuchs and palace maids, it seems that the harem is not peaceful."

Chen Xuanhua looked at Liu Zhaoyi's smiling face and felt that the smile on his face seemed to be almost unable to hold it.

Seeing that Chen Xuanhua's face began to change, Liu Zhaoyi continued proudly: "The Empress must have noticed it, so she often goes to the imperial garden to burn rhinoceros horns. Is it to drive away evil spirits and disasters? In this harem, it is a place where women gather, and women are yin... But I seem to hear that the rhinoceros horns, after burning, seem to be completely opposite to the effect of driving away evil spirits..."

Chen Xuanhua's face immediately became sank when he heard Liu Zhaoyi's obvious words, and the other concubines whispered because of Liu Zhaoyi's words, "Rareless! How can you, a little Zhaoyi, behave like this in the harem? You can't sleep, afraid that the emperor has not favored you for some time, so you are here alone! If you dare to speak wildly again, don't blame me for your mouth!"

"You!" Liu Zhaoyi was so angry that she was about to talk back in public, but unexpectedly, she took action against Concubine Zhao and stopped her. Seeing Concubine Zhao like this, even if Liu Zhaoyi still had resentment in her heart, she had to swallow it back.

"Empress, why bother to get angry for a little Zhaoyi?" Zhao Shufei said sarcastically, and every word on the surface seemed to comfort the Empress, but the sarcastic tone was obviously mocking Chen Xuanhua for his narrow-mindedness.

"Yes, yes, the Empress, Liu Zhaoyizhi is a newcomer who has just entered the palace. Why do you have to be as good as a newcomer?" When the other concubines saw that Concubine Zhao Shu spoke, they also spoke one after another. Seeing that so many people were helping her, Liu Zhaoyi naturally had an expression of her tail rising to the sky.
