Xiao Shunzi still stood in front of her.

"Empress Liang, you should go back. Our queen and princess have really gone to bed."

The next morning.

The black whale and the white whale entered the palace together.

Concubine Shu gave a brief explanation to the two people.

He changed Mu Qianqian into a bright red wedding dress and carried her to the Cining Palace.

People are happy when they are happy.

The Queen Mother had just finished her breakfast and was wearing a purple Shu brocade dress, which exuded a touch of luxury in her elegance.

Seeing Concubine Shu coming, she pulled her to the dressing table and carefully chose which red hairpin would match her clothes best.

Concubine Shu picked out a lavender hairpin and put it on the empress dowager's head.

"Empress Dowager, what I told you before, you..."

The Queen Mother patted her hands comfortingly.

Motion to reassure her.

This Empress Dowager was the champion of the palace fight last time.

She has been in the palace for so many years.

He had already mastered all the tricks and gimmicks in the palace.

When Concubine Shu explained everything to her, she already understood it and even kept it in mind.

The Emperor has arrived.

Long live the emperor.

The eunuch's voice came from the door.

Emperor Yuanwu strode in.

After paying respects to the Queen Mother, he sat aside holding Mu Qianqian.

The ladies from each palace also brought gifts they had prepared for the Queen Mother.

In order to show his filial piety, he arrived at the Cining Palace early.

When everyone left, no one noticed that the Queen Mother quietly took off the lavender hairpin that Concubine Shu had just put on his head.

Then the birthday banquet was held in the Imperial Garden as scheduled.

Singing and dancing gracefully.

The atmosphere of the dinner party reached its climax in an instant.

The empress dowager was wearing a purple dress and was carried from the Cining Palace in a coach.

No one noticed, amid the singing and dancing.

There was also the rustling sound of the bamboo forest in the Imperial Garden, with branches and leaves being pulled.

Concubine Shu had already heard Mu Qianqian's thoughts.

At this time, he did not focus all his attention on the Queen Mother's teachings like everyone else.

He glanced secretly at the bamboo forest without making any expression.

as predicted.

There were several dark shadows swaying back and forth on the branches of the bamboo forest.

The night is already deep.

The noisy banquet was only illuminated by the dim light of candles.

If you don't look carefully, no one will notice this side.

"The Queen Mother is here."

"Your feet are so beautiful, Madam Queen!"

As everyone spoke, one person spoke after another.

The Queen Mother's coach stopped just south of the Imperial Garden.

A maid lifted the curtain of the sedan chair.

Concubine Shu's heart suddenly tightened.

Just now.

Concubine Shu closed her eyes because of the bright light of a dagger reflected from the candlelight in front of her.

Immediately afterwards, a dozen men in black rushed down from the bamboo forest of the Imperial Garden.

The man in black at the highest point leaped up, and the dagger in his hand flew rapidly towards the location of the Queen Mother's sedan chair.

"not good!"

"Protect the emperor! The imperial guards are protecting the emperor."

"Ah ah ah ah..."

Screams came and went.

The dagger was moving rapidly in the air, and was about to hit the empress dowager's forehead.

Lu Zhaofeng raised his hand and threw the sword at his waist in the direction of the dagger.

It seemed as if time had stood still at this moment.

The sword and dagger collided in the air, creating sparks.

There was a heavy sound.

At the same time, it fell at the feet of the Queen Mother.

The group of men in black who wanted to assassinate were also captured by the guards who had been hiding in the dark.
