On how UP masters play palace fighting games with their lives

Not Yin Lisu.

Mu Guyu looked at her again, only to find that her appearance was completely different from Yin Lisu's. Yin Lisu's appearance could be called a beautiful fairy. Although Concubine Xue was beautiful, she was a little older after all, and she looked much inferior to Yin Lisu.Moreover, among so many women Mu Guyu knew, only Concubine Su Gui could rival Yin Lisu in appearance.

But this Concubine Snow is very much like Yin Lisu from her clothing and jewelry to her temperament and demeanor, even the peaceful and soft cock between her eyebrows.

Could it be...she is the younger sister Yin Sangzhi that Miss Li Su has been looking for? !

She will become a concubine?

While Mu Guyu was pondering over the identity of Concubine Xue in the corner, another key figure of this banquet came.

The Empress Dowager's parent and son, Prince An, Qing Qi Yao, brought a veiled woman into the hall to pay their respects.

Qing Qiyao has delicate eyebrows and eyes, and looks like a slender boy.He is the youngest son of the first emperor, who has just turned fifteen this year. That year, "Blood Slaughter Weiyang" was lucky to escape because he didn't go to Weiyang Palace with his brothers.After Qing Yusheng ascended the throne, Qing Luoxiao, who came back from the dead, managed secretly, sent Qing Qiyao to Xiangcheng, and made his mother the empress dowager.Looking at it this way, both Qing Qiyao and his mother are under control, and he is quite hard-working, no wonder he is a little restless.

The empress dowager, a passer-by who had been on the background board for a long time, was finally moved when she saw her parents and children. She stood up from the main seat without dignity, and said excitedly: "Yaoer, please, please! My Yao My son...the queen mother hasn't seen you for a long time..." As she spoke, the empress dowager wanted to go to Qing Qiyao to take a good look at her son, but was frightened by Qing Luoxiao's gaze, so she could only keep a smile on her face. Sour watching from afar.

"Mother, don't worry, my son and minister are all well." Qing Qiyao knew her mother's difficulties and comforted her with a smile.

Qing Luoxiao looked at Qing Qiyao in a blink of an eye, and said: "It seems that Prince An is not lying, the beautiful woman next to her is Princess An? Last month you hurriedly reported your marriage to your imperial brother. You are really infatuated with Princess An."

Qing Qiyao bowed his head and replied: "I am sorry for your empress's concern. This time I came to the capital, besides celebrating my mother's birthday, I brought her to meet the emperor brother." Then, he led the veiled woman beside him to Qing Yu Sheng bowed down.

Qing Yusheng is someone who would care about this kind of thing, he glanced lightly, but stopped for a moment when he passed the veiled woman, and then didn't pay any attention, but Qing Luoxiao asked with a smile: "Why are you safe?" The princess is wearing a veil, is she sick?"

"Back to the Empress, my wife's face has blemishes, and I'm afraid I'll lose my face in front of the palace if I reveal my face, so I have to hide my face to show others." Qing Qiyao replied.

At this time, Concubine Yao Shu suddenly smiled and said, "My lord and my concubine are really affectionate husband and wife. On the other hand, our emperor treats the queen well, but recently the emperor misses Mu Jieyu, sister Mu. I heard that this time, sister Mu was specially invited by the queen mother." , Hey, where's Miss Mu?"

Concubine Yao Shu, you shit-stirring stick!

Mu Guyu, who was named by concubine Yao Shu for no reason, was in a big trough in his heart, so he stood up reluctantly, saluted the empress dowager, and said the formula, "I am very honored to be invited by the empress dowager. A concubine is just doing her duty as a concubine."

"Hehe, Mu Jieyu has done her duty very well, and she has shared a lot of my worries." Qing Luoxiao smiled and looked at Mu Guyu with a playful look. Obviously, both of them knew that Concubine Yao Shu was deliberately provoking again. The relationship between queen and concubine.

Seeing that the provocation was unsuccessful, Concubine Yao Shu's eyes sank, and she turned her head towards Mu Guyu again, "Yo, I haven't seen Sister Mu for a few days, but she has grown a lot taller. From a distance, she looks similar to Prince An."

As soon as the words came out, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay. After all, it was the first time that someone compared the emperor's concubine with the prince, and they didn't know whether she was saying that the prince was too feminine, or that the concubine was too tall.

Qing Qiyao remained calm, but Mu Guyu was in danger of being seen through. Concubine Yao Shu said again: "Perhaps the emperor spoiled Sister Mu so much that he raised Sister Mu so well. Eh, I heard that Sister Mu has an older brother who looks exactly like Sister Mu. I don’t know if the Emperor and you have seen your relatives at home this time. After all, you are also from your mother’s family. Why don’t you let the Emperor help your brother in court? It's a one-off job."

"Cough-cough-"

"Empress Taifei, you, what's wrong with you?"

Just when Mu Guyu didn't know how to deal with it, Concubine Xue who was sitting in front suddenly coughed uncomfortably, attracting most people's attention to her.

"Send the imperial physician quickly." The Empress Dowager asked someone to pass the order.

"It's okay, I'm sick." Concubine Xue smiled weakly and said to Qing Yusheng and the Empress Dowager, "Empress Dowager, Your Majesty, Empress, I'm not feeling well, so please take a step back."

Qing Yusheng nodded, and the empress dowager also said: "Then the concubine should go back first."

Concubine Xue leaned back and retreated, Qing Luoxiao actually said: "Mu Jieyu, why don't you send the concubine back to the palace."

Mu Guyu was stunned for a moment, not knowing Qing Luoxiao's intentions, it can be seen that Concubine Yao Shu bit her lips in displeasure, as if she wanted to embarrass Mu Guyu, and immediately understood that Qing Luoxiao wanted him to leave this place temporarily, lest Concubine Yao Shu completely expose him, So he agreed to follow Concubine Xue.

Concubine Xue smiled, but did not object, "In that case, Mu Jieyu will be in charge."

"The concubine lost her concubine, this is what I should have done."

When Mu Guyu left with Concubine Xue, when passing by Prince An and Concubine An, Mu Guyu inadvertently raised his eyes and happened to meet Princess An who was looking over. Concubine An's eyes seemed somewhat familiar...

After leaving Ningxu Palace, Mu Guyu sent Concubine Xue back to the Manxue Palace where she lived. When she was walking into the main entrance, Mu Guyu noticed that there was a snow-white pear blossom forest in front of the gate of the palace.

The breeze is in the air, and the pear blossoms are like snow, whirling and turning, which is very gorgeous.

pear blossom...

Mu Guyu was thoughtful, and unintentionally asked Princess Xue who was walking in front of the hall: "Ms. Taifei, the pear blossoms here are so beautiful, it reminds me of a person, a beauty who is so beautiful in the world, It is said that there is also a word 'pear' in her name."

Concubine Xue stopped in her tracks, turned her head and replied with a smile, "Isn't Mu Jieyu talking about Yin Lisu who is comparable to Empress Li and Su Guifei, who is known as the beauty of Yin Zhuang?"

"Oh, the empress dowager knows her?" Mu Guyu said in "surprise".

"Hehe, Yin Lisu's beauty is the most beautiful in the entire Chen Dynasty. Who doesn't know it? It is said that the former emperor married Empress Li and Su Guifei at that time, and wanted to bring her into the palace together. It's a pity that the beauty is unlucky, and this palace has no chance to meet this Yin." Beauty Zhuang." Concubine Xue said with emotion.

"Well, hasn't the empress dowager seen Yin Lisu?" Mu Guyu continued to ask.

Concubine Xue shook her head with a smile, "I lived in the capital since I was a child, and was sent to the palace to serve the emperor when I grew up. How could I have a chance to see her beauty. It is said that Yin Lisu also stayed in Yinzhuang since she was a child. How many people have seen her real face?"

Mu Guyu was silent. Listening to Concubine Xue's words, it seemed that she and Yin Lisu didn't know each other, but why her behavior and demeanor were so similar to Yin Lisu's, could it be that she was not Yin Sangzhi?

"Mu Jieyu, do you want to sit in my palace?" Just as Mu Guyu was thinking about her relationship with Yin Lisu, Concubine Xue stood at the entrance of the palace and asked him with a tired face. It is barely perfunctory.

"No need, empress dowager, you look bad, take care of yourself, I'll leave first."

Of course, Mu Guyu is not someone who doesn't know how to read people's faces. If he goes in again, it is obviously a nuisance, so he can only leave today.Anyway, since Concubine Xue appeared on the stage, it means that they should have intersections in the future, and... there are indeed too many unclear things about her, no matter whether she is lying or not, whether she is Yin Sangzhi or not, only Mu Gu Yu didn't know until she got the truth.

Mu Guyu didn't stay for long, and simply rejected Concubine Xue and left.

Late that night.

Manxue Palace, deep in the pear blossom forest.

The pear snow is flying, compared with the splendor of the day, the flying at night makes it more mysterious and beautiful.

A woman in a white palace dress is sitting on a stone bench, holding a chess piece in her hand, and is carefully observing the chess game on the stone table in front of her. Another elderly woman in a red palace dress is rushing towards her angrily. , it can be recognized that the woman in the red palace dress is the Empress Dowager who is born today.

"Concubine Xue, what do you mean by that? Didn't you agree that today you and that girl from the Yao family will get rid of the monster's love? Why did you stop suddenly?! Do you know that after you left today, the monster's The queen wants my Yaoer to embarrass me to the extreme!" At the end, the empress dowager gritted her teeth, and her mediocre face became even more distorted with hatred, "Hmph, when my Yaoer ascends the throne someday, I will definitely let that monster along with all his The concubine and concubine died together without a place of burial, so as to comfort the spirit of my sister and her third prince in heaven, and the pain of being separated from Yao'er!"

"Empress Dowager, don't be in a hurry, I'll hold back, because I feel that the time has not come yet." Concubine Xue leisurely pressed a white chip, called to eat, and just took a black chip.

"Opportunity, opportunity, opportunity again! How many opportunities have we missed over the years! Hmph, you want us to form an alliance with the Yao family, and now that girl from the Yao family is willing to help us get rid of Qing Yusheng's love, and deal a serious blow to that monster, why? You're starting to be timid again? Don't worry, after I, Yao'er, succeeds as Datong, your benefits will be indispensable!" The empress dowager said dissatisfied.

"How does the empress dowager know that Mu Jieyu is the emperor's favorite?" Dowager Xue asked with a light smile.

"Did not you say……"

"I'm just talking about rumors from the outside world." Concubine Xue interrupted her, "If you have love in your heart, why does the emperor want to spread rumors at will? The reason is very simple, it is a trap."

"Then why did you want Yao'er to catch Mu Guxi?" the Empress Dowager asked puzzled.

"It's not Mu Guxi that was caught, but another big fish. If you catch him, you'll win." Concubine Xue pressed another chess piece, "Okay, the empress dowager, let's go back first. , and please ask the prince not to act rashly, let alone have any contact with the Yao family."

"Hmph, I don't care what mystery you're up to. Anyway, if you trap Yao'er and me in an injustice, I'll drag you to be buried with you!!"

The Empress Dowager flung her sleeves and left, while Concubine Xue was still playing chess leisurely. After a while, a black shadow swept into the pear blossom forest, approached behind Concubine Xue, and gently added a coat for her. .

The person who came was the owner of Jiuyin Tower, Yuan Yishen, or Hei Xuan.

"Stupid as a pig, he still thinks about the throne when disaster strikes."

Concubine Xue put down the chess pieces, looked disdainfully at the direction where the Empress Dowager was leaving, and asked Hei Xuan: "Ah Shen, how are you?"

"There is no news. Although we have caught Mu Guxi, there is still no sign of Liu Feifei." Hei Xuan replied.

Concubine Xue frowned slightly, "If you can't catch Liu Feifei, you won't be able to expose the fake queen's identity. Hmph, what is a Mu Guxi? What I want is Qing Luoxiao."

"After my identity was exposed and I accidentally missed it last time, Qing Luoxiao has already sent more people around him. It's not easy to catch him."

Concubine Xue heard Hei Xuan's remorse, and comforted her softly, "Shen, I didn't blame you. For me, I don't trust anyone in Jiuyin Tower except you. Hehe, Xianggu The girl betrayed me a long time ago, and it was in vain for me to let her live so long for her mother's sake."

"..." Hei Xuan was silent for a while, "You... today, if you feel something about Mu Guyu."

Concubine Xue was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "I really can't hide it from you, Mu Guyu, I am a little interested in him, but..." She turned around and picked up another chess piece, and put it on the board, " He is just a pawn in this chess game."

"Whether it's Emperor Hao, Li Jiaoying, Su Xidie, Bai Ruoshui, or Qing Xiangcheng, Qing Luoxiao, Qing Yusheng, they are all pawns. But now, the closing time is not far away."
