Rebirth of Shuangshu

Chapter 170 Visiting the Palace at Night
Little children are out of energy.

Cui Panpan and Lin Xiaoxiao played with Cui An for a while, and the child fell asleep.

Cui Panpan put Cui An on the couch, and Lin Xiaoxiao took out a small rechargeable fan and put it on the table next to her.After the two settled the child, they went aside to talk.

"Rui Jiang, what does this mean?"

"She thought Pingping was Tian Mu's child. The Qin army attacked Rui, and Tian Mu was the deputy commander."

"Sure enough, the news Ji Huang heard is also the same. That's fine, you are important hostages, and she won't treat you harshly."

"I think so too, so I can't let her know."

Cui Panpan and Lin Xiaoxiao looked at each other, and they knew each other.

"Amu and the others?"

"They can only come here during the day, and they can only live in the residence of the palace maids and guards at night when the palace gate is closed."

"Is she guarding against them?"

"The three of them are highly skilled in martial arts, Rui Jiang still has some taboos. In addition, we are not allowed to break the rules of the palace just because we live here."

"Does she call you often?"

"I saw her the day I came here, but I haven't seen her since. I originally wanted to inquire about her in the name of paying her respects, but I was rejected. I heard that she is very busy, and it seems that she is preparing for the war."

"It's a pity that I can't take people directly, and I can't take you out directly."

"Don't worry, we'll eat and drink here, and we can go to the Imperial Garden to play during the day. She won't do anything to us easily."

"do you have any plans?"

Cui Panpan shook his head silently, looking a little depressed.

Lin Xiaoxiao was a little different, but after thinking about it carefully, she understood.

Tian Mu is Xiao Cui's ex-husband, and Han Wu is Cui Panpan's incumbent.Tian Mu hijacked Han Wu to attack Han Wu's country.

Isn't this a bit of an embarrassing situation between the former and the current?
The corner of Lin Xiaoxiao's mouth twitched: "Because Tian Mu feels embarrassed?"

"No," Cui Panpan shook his head, "I'm not Xiao Cui, and besides, Xiao Cui never lived with Tian Mu at all."

"That's Han Wu."

Cui Panpan sighed: "He has a strong personality. This time he has been wandering abroad for almost two years, and was arrested by the Qin army. It must have dealt a heavy blow to him."

"It's like this in the world," Lin Xiaoxiao said, "After Rui Guo went to the country, was he demoted or deposed as a commoner?"

"He was demoted."

"That's okay, he's still a nobleman, and he should still have a fief. When are you going to let him know about ordinary things?"

"Look again, I don't really want Pingping to participate in these messy things."

"But I think Pingping should at least be from a noble family. We are here now, and when we grow old in the future, we won't be able to protect him.

The aristocratic family system has far-reaching influence, and it is very difficult to jump up the ranks.You must not think about letting Pingping live the life of an ordinary person.The life of ordinary people is not so easy.Birth is not only useful to Pingping, but also to his descendants in the future. "

What Lin Xiaoxiao said was the truth.They are not harassed now, mainly because Lin Xiaoxiao has the status of Kunlun Mountain girl, which has elevated Laiqi Mountain's status and protected everyone.

In the future, if Lin Xiaoxiao passed away, or something happened, Cui Panpan and Cui An would probably become refugees.

In this era, the gentry and the common people, one is in the sky and the other is in the ground.

Since Cui Panpan's mother and son are not in danger for the time being, Lin Xiaoxiao will not stay any longer.At present, there is no good way to take them out. For the time being, we can only take one step at a time.

Lin Xiaoxiao didn't go directly back to Ji Huang's place, she planned to take a look around the palace.

The points for teleporting into the palace gate are one hundred, and the points for teleporting in the small area of ​​the palace are fifty.Therefore, the points directly transmitted to the West Side Hall are one hundred and fifty.

The highest point of the palace is naturally the Bell and Drum Tower.

Lin Xiaoxiao went to the Bell and Drum Tower first.

Looking outside the palace, it was pitch black.The few highlights are the lanterns lit by the noble mansions.The once lively and bustling night market in the business district has been cancelled.

Looking into the palace, there are two places where lights are burning.One is the Empress Dowager's bedroom, where Rui Jiang Bingzhu studies strategies against the enemy.One is Mrs. Hua Jiang's bedroom.I heard that Ji Mo never took a concubine, and stayed in Huajiang Palace every night.

With a flash of Lin Xiaoxiao's figure, she first came to Hua Jiang's bedroom.It looks quite lively here, not as deserted as other places.

The door of the bedroom is closed, and there are no palace guards outside, and the voices inside can be heard standing under the window.

"Why didn't the Queen Mother ask for help from the Song Dynasty? Even I was not allowed to write to my mother's family?"

"She has her reasons for doing that. You don't know the details, maybe you are worried that you may say the wrong thing."

"I don't understand? Then she can tell me. You are almost 15 years old now, and you should have some serious business."

"Hey, I'm also doing business now. Having no heirs is worse than fighting a war."

"What's the rush? You're still young, and I can have a baby. Sooner or later, there will be a child. If the Kingdom of Rui is gone, we can only go back to the Kingdom of Song."

"Then what do you want to do?"

"I always feel that the Empress Dowager has concealed something. You should find out when you go to pay her respects tomorrow. If she doesn't tell you, you can go to Chunyue and say that I agree to let you take her in."

"Chunyue? But I like Xiadie."

"Chunyue is more sensible than Xia Die. You accept her first, and then let her help you win over Xia Die. Those in the Empress Dowager's palace will be yours sooner or later."

Lin Xiaoxiao listened for a while under the window, feeling very speechless.In a flash, she came to Ruijiang Palace.

It was also quiet here, only the bedroom was still lit.

Lin Xiaoxiao didn't dare to get too close, for fear of being discovered.There must be more masters in Ruijiang Palace than in Huajiang Palace, maybe there are people with sharp eyes and ears.

Lin Xiaoxiao hid in the shadows in the corner, quietly waiting for the opportunity to come.

This feeling is the moment when the hunter waits for the prey to relax.

After a while, there were voices in the room, followed by a rustling sound, and then the lights were turned off, and several maids came out from inside.

An older lady-in-waiting pointed to the next young lady-in-waiting.The little palace lady was left on duty at night outside the door, and everyone else went down to rest.

The little maid looked okay at first, but after a while she began to doze off standing up.The glasses have been closed, the head rests on the door frame, only the man is still standing.

I don't know if it's the rules of the palace, or because of the hot weather, the door of the dormitory is left open.

The night wind blew the tulle door curtain, and Lin Xiaoxiao sneaked in wrapped in black cloth.

A pile of leather scrolls and silk cloth were placed on the table on the couch.There was no paper in this era, and silk and leather rolls were mostly used to transmit messages over long distances.

Lin Xiaoxiao flipped through it and returned to the original state, then disappeared in place.

This time she got a lot of information.

Lin Xiaoxiao didn't go back to Ji Huang's mansion, but directly went back to Laiqi Mountain.

He didn't have time to sleep at all, so he called Kong Ci and A Wu up for a meeting overnight, and the others can wait until tomorrow to inform.

Lin Xiaoxiao told all about her inquiry.
