It was an old female voice.

After hearing this voice, Yan Huaiyin paused, and retreated back into the backyard the next moment.

There is a room next to the corridor, Yan Huaiyin turned to one side, tightly pressed against the wall.The guard's body was dragged by him and quietly placed beside him.

The shadow of the room came down, completely covering him in the darkness.

There was ice-cold sobriety in the young man's eyes until the candlelight came to his side.

It seemed to be an old nanny who had lived in the palace for many years. Her footsteps were small and cautious. She carried the palace lantern and came to Yan Huaiyin's side. She didn't realize that the person was beside her, but walked straight over.

Yan Huaiyin's breathing did not change, her eyes were fixed on the figure of the old mother.

The old mammy reached the end of the backyard, turned around the wall and walked back, muttering, "No one."

Yan Huaiyin watched her, calmly analyzing the situation in front of him.

Since there are old mothers, there are concubines, and concubines who can live in Weixi Palace are naturally not favored.

Since he is not favored, if he knocks people out, even if he wakes up and goes to the emperor, the Chengde Emperor is violent, and he probably won't bother with a concubine he doesn't like.

While Yan Huaiyin was thinking this way, the old nanny over there had already returned and walked to his side again.

She went around the yard and found nothing, so she walked back much faster.

But when she was rubbing shoulders with Yan Huaiyin, she seemed to have noticed something, the lines on her face suddenly tensed up, she suddenly stopped, and turned her head to look at Yan Huaiyin.

The next moment, Yan Huaiyin's hand fell on her neck.

The old mama couldn't resist, she could only raise her arms subconsciously to block it, and she held the palace lantern in her hand, so that it was blocked between her and Yan Huaiyin.

The light from the palace lantern illuminated the two of them, and also clearly illuminated the face of the nanny.

The moment he saw her face clearly, Yan Huaiyin's hand suddenly lost strength.

A familiar face appeared before his eyes.

The pain Lian Fang thought didn't come, even the hand that fell on her neck hadn't been clenched tightly, so she retracted it.

When she opened her eyes, she saw a pair of eyes that were too bright in the darkness.

Those eyes retreated two points into the darkness.

Yan Huaiyin let go of her hand, held her breath, and said softly, "Let's go."

Lian Fang never thought that the person who was choking her just now would say that. She walked through life and death, but she didn't realize it for a while, and stood there in a daze.

"Don't tell anyone that you've seen me." Yan Huaiyin's eyelashes trembled, his voice seemed to be soaked in a piece of moonlight that had been frozen for a long time, "If you want your master to be well."

He thought for a while, and then confessed: "Clean up my footprints."

After saying this, he pursed his lips, pulled up the corpse, and was about to turn around and leave.

But before he took two steps, he heard another footstep.

The embroidered shoes with soft soles are light and obvious.

The owner of the footsteps spoke calmly, with some doubts: "Lian Fang, what's wrong?"

Yan Huaiyin tightened the hand that was holding the corpse, he was already a strong bow at this time, but he had to subconsciously raise his breath and use light work to leave.

From the moment he saw Lian Fang, he already knew who was living in Weixi Palace at this time.

But he didn't want to see her.

But the rushing voice had already come to the backyard. The moment she saw the back of Hurrying, she blurted out: "If you take another step forward, I will call."

Yan Huaiyin had no choice but to stand where she was.

After Lian Fang heard the voice, she turned around, hurriedly stood in front of her, and called out with fear in her voice, "Empress Empress."

Empress Empress.

Empress Xiao, wife of Emperor Chengde, sister of Emperor Ming Sheng, Yan Wanqing's best friend in her boudoir when she was young.

Yan Huaiyin's biological aunt.

Apart from Yan Xiuqing, he was the last relative.

Empress Xiao was blocked by Lian Fang, and she could clearly see the person whose back was facing her under the moonlight.

Thin and dragging a dead body, he looks like a water ghost taking revenge on the court.

But Xiao Rubi didn't know why, and said softly: "Turn around."

In the silence, after a long time, Yan Huaiyin turned around.

Under the bright moonlight, Xiao Rubi could clearly see the appearance of the person in front of him.

A face she didn't recognize, an unfamiliar one.

Yan Huaiyin lowered her eyelashes deeply, and the words she said quenched her anger: "Don't let me leave again, I don't care if you are a queen or not, before the guards in the palace come, I can kill both of you, believe it or not?"

He threatened people, bluffing people very much, Lian Fang immediately moved closer to Xiao Rubi, her wrists trembled.

The Empress is not favored, Nuo Da has a Weixi Palace, and there are only a few people serving here and there. If the person in front of them goes crazy, no one can come to save them.

But Empress Xiao acted as if she didn't hear Yan Huaiyin's words. Empress Xiao, who was in her 40s and already had gray hair on her sideburns, stood there, sizing him up carefully.

After a long time, Empress Xiao suddenly laughed, like laughing at a junior, she looked sideways at Lian Fang and said, "Look at him, why did he become like this?"

"Where did you come in?" Empress Xiao smiled without showing the slightest fear, "Is it that secret door? It was specially left by my sister-in-law for my little nephew. The main door is closed, and he doesn't want to disturb the little eunuch to open it, so he often comes in through this secret door."

Yan Huaiyin thought for a moment that Xiao Rubi recognized him.

But Empress Xiao immediately said: "That secret door has never been closed in this palace, you must have come in from there groping, but you are quite capable."

There was no trace of intimidation or threat in her words, just the most common greeting, but Yan Huaiyin took two steps back.

The young man who used his body as a hook in the icy lotus pond thought: I can't listen anymore, no matter where I go, but I can't stay here anymore.

But Empress Xiao seemed to know what he was thinking: "You want to leave the palace, right? The Weixi Palace in this palace has a secret way out of the palace. But now you dragged a corpse and left Weixi Palace. Within half an hour, you will be spotted by patrolling guards, right?"

After a moment of silence, Yan Huaiyin raised his eyelids: "What do you want?"

"No way," Empress Xiao smiled, "Follow me to change clothes, I will let you leave."

She said: "It's cold at night, what's the matter with wearing wet clothes."

Lian Fang opened his eyes wide, pulled Xiao Rubi's sleeves, and hurriedly said: "Mother, his origin is unknown, and he still..."

Still dragged a dead body.

Yan Huaiyin also reminded: "I don't know Madam, so I want to kill Madam."

Empress Xiao bent her eyes: "Just treat me as kind-hearted. I have practiced Buddhism all these years, and I don't want people to suffer anymore."

She turned to Lian Fang and said, "Lian Fang, go to the small kitchen and make a bowl of ginger soup."

All of Yan Huaiyin's feigned ferocity was thrown away by the sound of boiling ginger soup.

He was really like a child who was always by his aunt's side, with his head down, he followed Xiao Rubi all the way to the front yard.

There were no candles lit in the main hall in the front yard, and it was dark, with only some moonlight shining coldly.

Lian Fang lit the candles in the hall.

Xiao Rubi said: "There is no one else in Weixi Palace, so you can put the corpse outside."

She brought Yan Huaiyin to the right side hall, and said gently: "There are clean clothes inside, you go and change quickly, I am waiting for you in the main hall."

There are two left and right halls in Weixi Palace, and Queen Yan left the two side halls for her son and daughter respectively.

At that time, Yan Wanqing had just given birth to Yan Xiuqing, and she was unable to separate herself, so she entrusted the division of the palace to Princess Changning, the little prince's aunt.

It was a sunny day when Liu was slightly swept up in the soft spring breeze. Xiao Rubi, the eldest princess of Changning, took her little nephew by the hand and came to the door of the hall on the right side, and said with a smile to him: "Look, Yiqiu, Auntie, I will arrange the plans myself. Yes, go in and have a look."

"Look slowly, I'll go to the main hall to drink tea with your mother and wait for you," she said, her brows and eyes curved, and the green dragonfly hairpin shone faintly on her temples, "Come and see us after you finish reading."

Like tonight.

Yan Huaiyin entered the side hall.

He didn't delay for too long, everything was in order, and he was very familiar with the layout inside, so after casually changing into clean clothes, Yan Huaiyin hurried to the main hall.

Empress Xiao was dressed in plain white, she was sitting in the main hall picking out candle wicks, when she saw him coming over she smiled and said, "Why don't you wipe your hair."

Yan Huaiyin pursed her lips and said, "I'm leaving."

Empress Xiao sighed, and said softly: "Drink the ginger soup first, and then it's not too late to leave."

Not long after, Lian Fang came over with ginger soup.

Empress Xiao personally pressed him to drink ginger soup. She pointed at Yan Huaiyin's neck by candlelight and asked, "Who pinched him?"

Yan Huaiyin paused, and finally replied: "I have already killed him."

Empress Xiao snorted, waved her hands and said something to Lian Fang, Lian Fang turned and went into the room.

Yan Huaiyin didn't want to stay here for too long, and didn't care about the heat, so he drank the ginger soup in the bowl in three mouthfuls, and said again: "I'm leaving."

"Yes," Empress Xiao nodded, her lips curled up, "but the secret passage has been sealed, so what should I do?"

Yan Huaiyin froze in place.

Seeing his rare blank look, Xiao Rubi smiled a little more, she said: "Don't be afraid, I still have a way."

What his aunt thinks is a good idea has always been different from the good idea that normal people say.After hearing her words, Yan Huaiyin immediately became vigilant.

Facts have proved that his vigilance was not wrong.

The palace gate of Weixi Palace was opened, and two figures walked through the courtyard and entered the main hall.

Behind Jiang Yang, who nodded and bowed, stood a faint figure.
