I'm a professional

Before setting off on the road, Bai Mu checked with his servant several times, but they all got affirmative answers.

Bai Mu was a little puzzled: Could it be that the palace is so beautiful?Haven't seen it before?

But after all, this is not an important matter. Since Mo Yan has made such a firm request, it is difficult for him to refuse.

When we arrived at the gate of the palace, there was a light snowfall outside, making the already cold weather even colder.Some cars and sedans that came earlier were parked outside, and the bearers and servants who were outside were rubbing their hands in anger with their hands and faces flushed with cold.

Bai Mu thought about what was going to happen next, the assassination in the palace...until the reason was found out, they would not even open the palace door, some of these people were waiting.

He frowned. Other families can't control it, but his own...

Bai Mu got out of the sedan chair and sent everyone back with a strong attitude.

"Just send someone to look at it every hour. Don't you still plan to wait here? Can I still be frozen in the palace?"

Mo Yan murmured in his heart: I've heard of servants waiting for their masters, how could a master wait for his servants instead?What kind of system is this? !

But when Bai Musu lowered his face to give orders, he was full of majesty, and Mo Yan didn't dare to refute at all, so he could only hesitate and say yes.

The other side sent the people away, and Bai Mu followed the leading eunuch into the palace.

Guided by the eunuch leading the way, he raised his eyebrows in surprise and asked, "Eunuch Cui?"

Eunuch Cui smiled all over his face, his eyes were almost closed, he bowed low, "What orders does Mr. Pei have?"

Bai Mu hesitated, "Is this position... wrong?"

Whenever a banquet is held in the palace, it is an ordinary small gathering, and there are particularities in the seating, not to mention that it is a yearly banquet, royal family members, aristocratic families, court officials... this group of people gather together, the doorway inside the seat may be arranged I can't finish talking about it for a few days.

Eunuch Cui seemed puzzled, "Didn't Master Pei always sit here?"

Bai Mu: "..."

It's not the same, is it?

In previous years, as the knife in that little bastard's hand, of course, the closer he behaved and the more favored he was, the better.

But this year, if I remember correctly, he is still Yan Xiao's person, right?Putting it so close, isn't he afraid of being cut by the blade?

Eunuch Cui glanced at the newly added seat on the opposite side, as if he had realized something, he lowered his voice and said in a low voice, "I ask someone to move your seat forward an inch..."

He pointed to the opposite side with the hand in his sleeve, and lowered his voice, "It looks like they are in a line, and you must be in front."

Bai Mu: "..."

Is this what he cares about? !

Bai Mu was silent for a while, realizing that he might not be able to tell Eunuch Cui clearly.

Anyway, from today onwards, he is Li Tanyi's man again, so he seems to be all right... Besides, he is so close, it will be convenient to save people later.

Bai Mu finally sat down, Eunuch Cui nodded and bowed, "You can order me something."

It's hard to say whether someone can climb to a high position in the palace with political literacy, but the ability to figure out the Sacred Heart is absolutely top-notch.Who is the most important thing in the Holy Majesty's heart, these people are clear in their hearts... No matter how many discussions outside, Bai Mu's treatment in the palace is still the same as before.

Among the people coming in from Tai Le Palace, Pei Baimu is the only one worthy of Eunuch Cui's personal greeting. After Bai Mu took his seat, he left in a hurry, which was not very eye-catching.

But only Eunuch Cui knew that his palms were sweating.

With a movement of his wrist, he arched the note that was secretly stuffed in his hand just now into the depth of his sleeve, worried that his whereabouts would be revealed, and he was afraid that his sweaty palm would stain the handwriting.

On the way, the little eunuch bowed his head and saluted. He tried his best to maintain his usual attitude, scolded at the top of his throat, turned his head and hurried to His Majesty's bedroom——

This palace... I'm afraid something big will happen.

……

Hand out the small note, and the first step of the task is considered complete.

Bai Mushi calmly sat on his seat, waiting for the banquet to start.

According to the customary rules at the banquet, naturally the lower the rank, the earlier.

In terms of the emperor's relatives, although Bai Mu is responsible for the "elder brother" of the emperor, but in terms of blood, he is not in the capital; official rank, he is not so outstanding in this capital where everything is above the first rank, and now he is even more so. Even the Holy Grace is gone... He thought that this year he was just sitting at the last seat outside the main hall.

He didn't want to attract too much attention, and he had a task ahead of him, so Bai Mu came early.

But being invited to the top right now, facing the empty hall, it seemed extraordinarily lonely.

This is even more wronged to the officials who accompanied the last seat outside. Before taking their seats, they planned to greet each other a few times and make friends with each other, but when they looked up, they saw that someone was already seated in the hall, and they all wondered if they were late. He didn't dare to walk around indiscriminately anymore, so he had to kneel down and sit in his position obediently.

Bai Mu: ...So how long does he have to wait here?

He was silent for a while, and said: "San'er, let's start the game..."

No one in this world can play games online with him, only stand-alone.

But to pass the time, Xiaoxiaole and Tetris are very stress-reducing...

Amidst the series of "double kill" and "thriple kill" sound effects, Bai Mu heard something different. He opened his eyes and saw that it was Yan Xiao who had come over.

Bai Mu thought that the banquet had almost started, but it turned out that the hall was still empty, but now there were only two people sitting instead of one.

Bai Mu: Is Yan Xiao out of his mind?so early?

……

After the routine greeting, Bai Mu originally planned to continue closing his eyes (playing) raising (playing) the mind (playing), but a burning gaze fell on him, no matter how big-hearted Bai Mu was, he couldn't do it in such a way. While staring, then close your eyes.

The two stared at each other for a long time, and finally waited for the next visitor. Bai Musong let out a warm welcome to the visitor.

This adult surnamed Liu was flattered and even a little scared.

Although this Mr. Pei has not shown up in the court for several months, there are even rumors that he has lost his holy family.But anyone with a little brain in the court, no matter how foolish they are, would not dare to treat this person slowly.

Not to mention anything else, just the surname "Pei" is enough for him to live in the court, not to mention that this person has a relationship with His Majesty who grew up, how can it be said that it is gone?Look at the seats at today's New Year's Banquet again. Where does it look like it has lost its Sacred Heart?

Being treated so warmly by Wei Wei, Master Liu desperately flipped through the notebook in his mind: He hasn't offended this Master Pei these days, has he?

Liu Hao didn't think of a reason in the end. Fortunately, other people came over one after another. Because Bai Mu was resting on the grounds of "sick leave", he got greetings from many people, and he couldn't distract himself from greeting them for the time being. Master Liu.

Liu Hao sat down first, looked at Bai Mu who was surrounded in the middle, and couldn't help feeling sad: No matter what the reason, he didn't take advantage of the opportunity to show off just now, so it would be good to make an impression on Mr. Pei.

... Mistake, misstep.

After greetings, everyone took their seats one by one.

Li Tanyi finally came late, Bai Mu exchanged glances with him when he came in.After all, after so many years of tacit understanding, Bai Mu immediately confirmed that the news had reached him when he met his eyes.

He took a sip from the wine cup on the table, and raised his eyes to meet Yan Xiao's eyes.

Bai Mu guessed that he was suspicious, but he didn't panic, smiled lightly, and raised his glass from afar.

——It seems to indicate some will, but it seems to have nothing.

Yan Xiao squinted her eyes, pulled the corners of her lips, picked up the wine cup, and drank it down in one gulp.

When the emperor arrived, the banquet began naturally.

The sound of silk and bamboo is overwhelming, and the singing and dancing are graceful... Bai Mu unexpectedly thought of the big banquet in the frontier——

The joyful sound of laughing and shouting filled his ears, but in the blink of an eye the melodious sound of the piano brought him back to reality...

Man, how strange.

Obviously, the dancing here is more graceful, the music is more melodious, and even the dishes are more exquisite... But the people present are not happy.

... Desires are really endless.

Bai Mu only pondered for a while, then collected his mind and concentrated on admiring the dancing of the girls.

It's interesting to talk about what happened today——

"Pei Baimu" got the news that Yan Xiao was planning to assassinate him at the New Year's banquet, so "he" naturally wanted to remind Li Tanyi to be careful.

But in fact, the assassination was true, but the target was wrong. The assassin was assassinated by General Yan Xiao of Marquis of Wu'an... Yes, it was an assassination drama directed and acted by Yan Xiao himself. Palace guard.

But in the end Li Tanyi was indeed assassinated, and it was Pei Baimu who blocked the knife...

The story here is more tortuous.

How else can we say that the main character, Gong Shou, is a natural couple?After Li Tanyi got the news of "Pei Baimu", he immediately guessed Yan Xiao's plan, and then followed the plan, and took advantage of the situation to direct and act on his own.

If Yan Xiao didn't want to be labeled as a regicide when the situation was not stable, he had to do his best to protect Li Tanyi from now on.

It's interesting for the two to speculate on each other's minds, but this matter is really funny in the eyes of onlookers.

kill yourself...

Bai Mu took a bite of the dish that was already completely cold, and couldn't help but sigh at the system, "In the end, I'm the only one who rushed up and gave it for nothing."

There is a description of the assassin in the plot line, she is a beautiful woman dancing solo with silk and satin, it will take time for Li Tanyi to arrange it, and the assassin's appearance should be at the end of the banquet.

Therefore, Bai Mu is quite devoted to admiring the ladies and sisters dancing with their sleeves.

The long red sleeves are like extended arms in the hands of these dancers, flexible and soft, and the sleeves flutter to reveal the smiling lotus face behind, which is really beautiful.Bai Mu's fingers clasped on the table tapped a few times in sync with the beat.

At a certain moment, the tapping action was a pause.

He hesitated for a moment, and asked the system: "The reflection just now..."

Before the words fell, the leading dancer suddenly left the team and rushed straight to the head.

Bai Mu:! ! !

At the very moment, everything around seemed to be in slow motion, and Bai Mu even saw the black poison extracted from the dancer's dagger.

He jumped up, saw the surprise in Yan Xiao's eyes, and saw Li Tanyi's frown.

--no!Not these two! !
