Empress Abandoned in the Cold Palace: Queen Juan, she doesn't talk about martial arts

Chapter 116 Fragrance
He could only dispel his doubts temporarily.

Thinking of being deceived by Shi Qi, Xiao Zhaolin's face became even more ugly: "Your Majesty, rest well, and I won't bother you in this hall."

After he finished speaking, he left.

Two days later, the day for the selection of maids in the palace arrived.

When Su Lijin came to Xiu Pavilion, there were rows of maids standing neatly inside, and people from each palace sent people to choose from them.

Her gaze swept across the rows of maids, and her eyes paused for a moment on one of the thin and delicate maids.

"You, and you, come here."

Randomly pointing to two court ladies, Su Lijin took a sip from the teacup and asked a few simple questions.

After the two maids answered, she casually pointed to the corner and said, "That one also come over and let me have a look."

The thin figure stepped forward and lowered his head: "Your servant sees the empress."

"That's right, she's a girl who understands the rules." Su Lijin nodded: "You follow Bengong too."

"Yes." The little maid raised her head, it was Xianxian.

Su Lijin got up.

When choosing a palace lady today, she deliberately let the immortals follow her, but it is a bit suspicious, and she still has to go through the cutscenes in a decent manner.

After Su Lijin left Xiuge, she went back to her own palace.

Xianxian followed behind her, moving his nose from time to time, and after smelling a fragrance, there was an unconcealable surprise in his eyes.

She looked up at Su Lijin's back in a daze, her eyes were full of shock.

After entering the palace, Su Lijin looked back at her, but Xianxian knelt down on the ground with a "plop", kowtowed her head and said, "Thank you, my maidservant, for saving my life!"

Hearing this, Su Lijin was surprised, and looked at her for a long while, with a somewhat complicated look on her face.

Xianxian looked around, the other maids had already stepped back, and said: "Your Majesty is Sister Shiqi, right?"

Su Lijin's expression was even more astonishment. Xianxian was able to directly tell her relationship with Shiqi, which meant that Xianxian must have recognized her.

At this moment, Su Lijin had no way to deny it, and said, "How did you recognize Bengong?"

Seeing her like this, Xianxian smiled a little embarrassedly: "Your Majesty has a fragrance on her body, Xianxian can smell it, that smell is very special and very good."

Su Lijin sniffed herself a few times, then shook her head amusedly: "Maybe only those with a unique sense of smell can smell that fragrance."

She felt that the smell on her body was very light. Although she smelled it carefully, it seemed to have a vague aroma, but under normal circumstances, other people would not have the opportunity to smell it so closely for so long.

She thought to herself, maybe this is Xianxian's unique sense of smell.

"Xianxian, since you already know that Bengong is Shiqi, can you help Bengong keep it a secret?"

Xianxian nodded again and again: "Xianxian will definitely not tell other people, and must keep this secret."

Su Lijin nodded and said nothing more.

For the next few days, Su Lijin was thinking about one thing.

After the brothel was slaughtered, her status as a flying fairy in the brothel could no longer be used.

Now, without this layer of identity and a channel to collect information, she is very troubled.

"Right now, what should we do?"

Thinking about various possible channels, suddenly something flashed in his mind, Su Lijin thought about it, and immediately stopped.

"By the way, I almost forgot someone!"

Thinking of that person, Su Lijin became excited, and quickly called Xianxian: "Xianxian, do you know the whereabouts of Tantai Chun?"

That's right, the person she thought of was none other than Jianghu Baixiaosheng Tantai Chun!
In this world, is there anyone who knows more about the secrets of the world than Tantai Chun?

If she can find Tantai Chun, then she can inquire from him, which is much more convenient.

Xianxian said: "Returning to your mother, Tantai Chun was only invited by the old bustard to sit in the brothel, and he doesn't often stay in the brothel."

Don't stay in the brothel often?

Su Lijin remembered that every time he saw Tantai Chun, it was in a secret room.

Presumably, it was the old bustard who invited people to sit in the secret room every time.

However, since the bustard can invite Tantai Chun, it means that there is a way to contact him, which is exactly what Su Lijin wanted to ask.

"How does the bustard usually contact Tantai Chun?"

Now that the brothel has been destroyed and Tantai Chun has no news, I can only ask from Xianxian.

Although Tantai Chun's whereabouts were secretive, she didn't hold out much hope, but it would be nice if she could get some more clues.

Xianxian thought about it carefully, then pursed his lips and said: "Madam, Xianxian remembers that every time the old bustard invites Tantai Chun, he will go to the peach blossom forest outside the city."

"Go to the peach blossom forest outside the city?" Su Li blinked: "Could it be that Tantai Chun is there?"

Hearing this, Xianxian thought for a while and continued: "When the old bustard goes to the Peach Blossom Forest, he always brings a white jade jug with him."

"White jade jug?"

Presumably this Tantai Chun is a man of wine.

However, it is also possible that this is just a password?
Thinking of this, Su Lijin felt that this conjecture was also very possible.

Sure enough, Xianxian's next words answered her doubts.

"The bustard put a white jade jug in the peach blossom forest outside the city, and also attached the time and place."

Xianxian said: "Tantai Chun will arrive according to the time and place."

Su Lichen lowered her eyebrows and thought, now she already knew the way to find Tantai Chun, but now she still needs to try it herself.

However, the peach blossom forest outside the city is too far away, so we still have to find a way to get there.

"What excuse should I find to go to the Peach Blossom Forest outside the city?" She pressed her forehead and thought.

At this moment, there was a commotion outside, Su Lijin raised her head, and saw Concubine Shu swaggering in.

"Empress, so you are in the palace."

Hearing these yin and yang words, Su Lijin almost didn't bother to respond: "Is there anything wrong with Concubine Shu?"

Concubine Shu touched her stomach, glanced at Su Lijin, and then at the sleeping hall: "I didn't expect, the empress is a bit clean here."

"If you want the concubines to say, it's because the empress is not pregnant, so the palace is so deserted, unlike the concubines, the threshold is almost broken."

"Today, the Queen Mother sent a lot of supplements to the concubine, and the concubine is almost tired of eating."

Su Lijin was really speechless, she pursed her lips and said: "Concubine Shu, if you have something to do, just tell me, there is no time to chat about me."

Concubine Shu said with a smile: "The concubine's pregnancy is hard, but the palace is too boring. The concubine wants to go out of the palace and go back to her mother's house to get some air, so I came here to report to the empress."

Said it was a report, but the tone was clearly showing off.

How could Su Lijin not hear it?

Su Lijin looked at Concubine Shu with a smile, and when Concubine Shu was getting hairy all over, she only heard Su Lijin categorically refuse: "No, I don't approve."

"You!" Concubine Shu thought that Su Lijin would refuse without mercy, and her face changed with anger.

Especially the smile on Su Lijin's face was extremely dazzling in Concubine Shu's eyes, it was no different from provocation, I wish I could tear the smile off her face!
