◎The flame swallowed the letter in an instant, leaving only ashes◎

Soon the moon is on the branches, and the house is full of candles.

After Ruhua settled His Highness to bed, he blew out the candles, held the palace lantern, and gently closed the door.

The sound of footsteps gradually faded away, Qi Jingyan opened his eyes abruptly, threw off the quilt, put on his clothes again, and then put the pillow upright and stuffed it into the quilt, forming a human shape, just in case.

Afterwards, he cautiously groped to the window in the dark, opened the window gently, thinking that his grandfather was out of tune every day, so he would not forget the agreement.

Looking up, there is a person sitting on the glazed tile roof opposite. Under the bright moonlight, even in dark clothes, he is very eye-catching.

Qi Jingyan is sincerely grateful: Fortunately, there are no heavy guards in this courtyard, only a few entourages who don't know how to fight, otherwise everyone would be shouting to catch assassins...

He raised his right hand and waved it forward. Like a big bird, Su Tianyi slid down from the top of the hall, like riding against the wind, and landed in front of Qi Jingyan's window lightly and skillfully.

As soon as they met, the grandfather and grandson immediately started to act. It was still Su Tianyi who carried people behind his back and walked over the eaves, and Qi Jingyan was responsible for guiding the way in a low voice.

Because there are guards patrolling in batches outside Zhanchen Palace's bedroom, flying on the roof under the moonlight, the target is too big and easy to be found, so the two chose to walk through the ground together.

Fortunately, Su Tianyi's martial arts were high enough, and the two of them fell out of the dormitory lightly with the effort of a cup of tea.Only Yuan Fu was watching the night in the side hall, and the grandfather and grandson easily entered the hall through the window.

Qi Jingyan walked into the bed, and just as he stretched out his hand to lift the curtain, he heard the second brother scold him, "Who is it!"

Unexpectedly, Brother Erhuang's vigilance was so high, Qi Jingyan was taken aback.However, the grandfather who followed behind him made a quick move, and the second brother only sat up halfway when the acupoints were tapped.

Su Tianyi also took out a porcelain bottle, poured out a pill and stuffed it into the mouth of the Second Emperor, pinched his cheeks with his fingers and pushed together, and the pill went down.

After finishing all this, Su Tian turned around happily and looked at his grandson, as if to see how fast his grandfather was, it was over.

Qi Jingyan, on the other hand, was startled by the whole set of movements, and jumped up, grabbed his long beard and shouted in a low voice: "What are you doing! Who told you to touch the acupoints of Brother Huang, and even fed medicine privately, why did you choke Brother Huang?" Do it! Untie it quickly!"

Su Tian grinned his teeth as soon as he grabbed him, and hurriedly begged for mercy: "Oh, Xie Xie, good grandson, let go quickly, your beard is going to fall off!"

During the fight between the two, Qi Jingluo who was on the bed was shocked and thought that he had met an assassin tonight, and his martial arts were so high that he had no strength to fight back. He closed his eyes and sighed: It seems that my life is over.

For a while, I felt neither pain nor itching, and seemed to hear Xiao Yan'er's voice.As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw what was happening in front of him. He was not nervous at all, his eyeballs rolled around, and he had an expression of watching the excitement.

After old man Su unlocked the acupoints, Qi Jingyan stepped forward and asked anxiously, "Brother Huang, are you alright?"

Qi Jingluo moved her waist, which had been stiff for a long time, and then moved her cheeks twice and said, "It's okay, it's Xiao Yaner, you don't sleep in the middle of the night, why did you bring someone to my room?"

"Brother Huang, he's not a bad guy, he's my grandfather. We just met." Qi Jingyan pointed to the old man who was sulking with his arms crossed and said, "Besides, you're poisoned, and I'm here to detoxify you. I just fed you. You are taking antidote pills."

As soon as the words fell, Yuan Fu knocked on the door, "Your Highness, what's the sound?"

"The ins and outs are in these letters, the emperor will understand after reading it, grandpa, let's go quickly." Qi Jingyan said, stuffing the porcelain bottle and the letter into the emperor's arms, and swiftly took away the burning incense burner in the room.

With a sound of "whoosh", Qi Jingluo recovered from the news that he was poisoned, and wanted to ask again. Looking around, there was no one else, only the bed curtain was slowly falling down with a gust of wind.

Yuan Fu outside the door couldn't hear His Highness's response for a long time, and knocked on the door several times, "Your Highness, what's the matter?"

Qi Jingluo replied calmly: "It's okay, I just got up at night and poured a cup of tea thirsty, you go to sleep."

After Yuan Fu left, Qi Jingluo took out a fist-sized luminous pearl from the hidden box at the head of the bed, and carefully lowered the bed curtain. The radiance of the luminous pearl was warm and long, not as penetrating as candlelight, so it was not easy to attract attention.

At this time, he took out the letter and porcelain bottle in his arms with confidence, and looked through...

Besides, Qi Jingyan's grandpa and grandson returned to the room without any danger, but Su Tianyi was about to leave when his grandson gently grabbed the hem of his clothes.

After a pause, he turned his head to look at the little hand that was holding his sleeve, and purposely put on a straight face to show that he was still angry.

"Thank you grandpa tonight. It's late at night. It's going to be a night in the soft cave. It's late at night and the roof is heavy, so be careful of catching cold on the roof." Qi Jingyan said softly.

As soon as Su Tian heard his grandson's words of concern, he immediately smiled and felt refreshed.

Qi Jingyan first extinguished the incense burner brought from the emperor's brother's room and stuffed it under the bed, then took a thick quilt from the cabinet and handed it to him.

Su Tianyi happily took it and lay down on the couch, shook off the quilt and covered himself, sighed: "It's so comfortable and warm!"

Here, Qi Jingyan took off her coat, climbed onto the bed, and lay down on the pillow that was erected earlier.

He turned over, couldn't see clearly, only heard a sentence: "Tomorrow morning I will take you to pay respects in front of mother's memorial tablet, and the emperor will be free to look for me after lunch."

After a while, Su Tianyi sighed and said: "Well, children go to bed early, they are so worried about growing tall."

Facing Qi Jingyan who was in the bed, he bent his mouth and did not reply, letting himself go to meet Duke Zhou.

The grandpa and grandson were sleeping soundly on their backs. Qi Jingluo didn't feel sleepy after reading the letter. In the cold night, his back was soaked in a layer of cold sweat.

He didn't disturb anyone, but quietly called Yuan Fu, explained the situation briefly, and told him to pack up the rest of the agarwood, take these letters with him, and quietly go to see his concubine the next morning, after she read the letter, she knew what to do response.

Yuan Fu, however, was so shocked that he was sweating profusely, fell to his knees with a thud, choked with sobs and said, "It's the servant's negligence, the servant is sorry for His Highness, and I'm sorry for the entrustment of Concubine Min!"

Qi Jingluo frowned and said, "Why are you crying? I'm not dead. Are you trying to alarm everyone? Hurry up and do something."

Yuan Fu quickly wiped away his tears with his sleeve, and while getting up limply, he nodded and said, "Yes, Your Highness, this servant will do it now."

On the second day, just as the sky turned pale, Qi Jingluo took today's dose of pills, put the porcelain bottle in his arms, and went to the palace to deal with affairs with the same expression as usual.

Yuan Fu picked up the small package that had been packed in advance, hid it in his arms, bowed and quietly copied a path to Concubine Min's bedroom.

Concubine Min's personal maid, Xiang He, came out of the side hall yawning, and saw Yuan Fu, a confidant of His Highness Second Highness's confidant, rushing towards her from afar.

Before Xianghe could ask her a question, Yuan Fu grabbed her wrist and said out of breath, "Is your majesty up? Your Highness is in a hurry."

When Xianghe heard that it was the Second Highness's business, she didn't dare to delay, so she asked him to wait in the side hall, and immediately went to the dormitory to report, and waited for the empress to get up to freshen up.

About a quarter of an hour later, Xianghe supported Concubine Min to sit on the soft slum in the side hall. This woman was not like Concubine Xiao's grace and luxury, nor Concubine Shu's demure and tranquility.

The facial features are profound, and the outline is neat, revealing a unique beauty of heroism, presumably because several generations of the Ji family were born as military generals, the result of being influenced by their ears and eyes since childhood.

She leaned slightly on the bed, raised her hand and rubbed her forehead, probably because she got up early, she couldn't lift her spirits a little, and asked slowly, "What did Luo'er send you here?"

Yuan Fu bowed his waist, held the bag with both hands, and raised it above his head, "Your Highness said that after seeing the contents inside, the empress will naturally know how to deal with it."

"Oh, this kid, he's even played charades. Xianghe, please present it."

"Yes, ma'am."

A moment later, Yuan Fu had already knelt on the ground, and said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty is the slave's fault, please punish me, Your Majesty."

Concubine Min held those pieces of paper in her hands, shaking like leaves in the wind, which showed her emotional ups and downs.

"You are at fault, and I am even more at fault. You easily fell for that vicious woman and almost killed Luo'er." Concubine Min said in a sad voice, unable to hold the letter in her hand any longer, letting it fall to the ground.

Those in the palace who were able to be close to one's body and confidantes had Linglong's thoughts. Seeing this situation, Xianghe already guessed about seven or eight points, knelt down and picked up all the letters and put them on the low table.

Then said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, this is the end of the matter, now is not the time to find out who is right and who is wrong, what Your Highness wants is a way to deal with it."

"You're right. Yuan Fu, after you go back, tell Luo'er that the mother concubine knows about it, and that the matter of the harem will be handled by the palace." Concubine Min said calmly, "Xianghe, You take a box of pastries to Yuan Fu and take them back, the Second Highness should be the pastries made by the gluttonous mother."

"Yes, empress." Xianghe turned around and went down to prepare.

After she left, Concubine Min suddenly said sharply: "Yuan Fu, this time I will not punish you according to His Highness, so that no one else will be suspicious. Remember this is the last time." Vertically, with sharp eyes, he shot straight at Yuan Fu who was kneeling below.

At this time, Concubine Min still hadn't been so sluggish earlier in the morning, like a lioness whose territory had been violated and went into a rage to protect her cubs.

"Yes, slave, remember, slave promises that there will never be a next time." Yuan Fu replied firmly with a head-scratching tone.

After a while, Yuan Fu took the cake, and Concubine Min waved to him, indicating that he could go.

Xianghe brought another brazier and put it down, and then stepped forward to massage the forehead skillfully for the empress.

Concubine Min threw the letters on the low table into the basin, and the flames instantly swallowed the letters, leaving only ashes, "At first, I only wanted to protect myself wisely, and didn't bother to use those low-handed methods to fight with others, but now someone dares to murder me My son is dead, Xianghe, do you think I can bear it!"

"Your Majesty, in this deep palace, your harmless heart can't stop others from harming you." Xianghe replied after thinking, "The tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop, Madam."

"The tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop, so I will let the wind in the harem blow more violently. Xianghe, come here with your ears..."

Stopping her movements, Xianghe turned her ear, and the empress whispered a few words in her ear.

Afterwards, Concubine Xiao discovered that the harem where she was able to handle with ease was suddenly blocked everywhere, and everything went wrong.

The author says:

Here we invite Concubine Min to do an interview: Last time you seemed to dislike Concubine Xiao's planning purpose, so what is your reason?

Concubine Min raised her eyebrows: Hey, it's been a long time since I married into the palace and I haven't touched a sword. I just want to practice sword freely!

Concubine Xiao sneered as she passed by: She really deserves to be called a tigress, no wonder His Majesty is reluctant to go to your place, hahaha~

Concubine Min flicked her finger lightly, and Concubine Xiao fell to the ground with a groan...
