Chapter 685: Moon Halo Night (1)

This night, the entire capital was extremely quiet.

A half moon hangs in the sky, and there is a circle of halo around it. Occasionally, a few night birds fly by, and they seem listless.

In a corner of the palace, a slender woman stood upside down against the wall and raised her legs high against the wall. She had been doing this for a long time, so she was relaxed and could talk: "How is Webster's movement?" ?”

Not far away, a figure was hiding in the shadows, and said in a low voice: "When Wei Shi and his son were arrested, they didn't say anything. Grand Master Wei even prevented the children from resisting at home. It can be said that they were arrested without a fight."

The woman turned over and stood up lightly, straightened her veil, straightened her back and legs, and stood tightly against the wall: "Tsk tsk, old fox, you can bear it. Chen's suicide has already given them the best chance. They really can Don't hold back?"

The figure was a little confused: "Didn't Mrs. Chen die to protect her husband's family and her mother's family from being implicated?"

"Stupid!" The woman said to him: "Wei is His Majesty's mother clan. Now the Empress Dowager Wei is driven crazy, the Chen family is forced to commit suicide in the palace, and Mrs. Wei and his son are imprisoned. It's not innocent, but people in the world don't know it. No matter how you look at it, it seems that His Majesty doesn't care about his relatives and wants to drive the mother clan to extinction. This is public opinion."

The figure said "Oh": "Then what's next?"

The woman said: "The Wei party has been quiet for the past few days. No one has raised objections to His Majesty's detention and examination of Webster, right? In this way, even if His Majesty wants to take the opportunity to kill them, there will be no excuse in a short time."

It would take some time to thoroughly investigate the case of the assassination of Empress Zhenzong, which gave the Wei party a chance to breathe and make it easier for them to join forces in secret.

Then, as long as she pushes back, Wei Dang can logically rebel.

The figure said: "What should we do now?"

The woman said: "Go and guard a pavilion and help Queen Mother Wei."

The figure left quietly.

The woman did not go back to the room, but said to the shadow of the eaves not far away: "Since you are here, come down."

A figure flew down, standing vigilantly a foot away from the woman, with a hoarse voice: "Are you looking for me?"

The woman raised her orchid finger and handed him a cup of tea: "Drinking tea under the moon has a special charm. Don't you think so? Admirer?"

Mu Xi sneered: "Who the hell are you? My lord protector?"

The woman said with a smile: "You don't need to know who I am, you just need to know that I am a real protector. Now I need you to do something."

Mu Xi crossed her arms and said coldly: "If you ask me to do it, I'll do it?"

The woman smiled and said: "I know that the Gu mother has fallen into your hands, and no one can direct you to do things. However, the Gu mother cannot be killed, so you will be afraid that it will be stolen and control you again for the rest of your life, yes no?"

Mu Xi gritted her teeth and said nothing.

"I know how to undo your Gu, do you want to exchange it?"

Mu Xi said: "How do I know if you are lying to me?"

"Because you have no choice. He Suoyi has come to the capital and is looking for your whereabouts. If I guessed correctly, your manpower in this palace has been exhausted, and there are not many left in the capital. You are alone, How can I become a venerable? I'm afraid I won't even be able to save my life, and I still want a woman? Dreaming!"

Without saying a word, Mu Xi waved her sleeve casually, and a poisonous needle as thin as a hair quickly hit her. Under the moonlight, it looked like a silver mist shining with demonic light.

The woman laughed, and raised her wide sleeves casually, a strong wind rolled up the silver mist and bounced back towards Mu Xi.

Mu Xi was taken aback, tipped her toes, and bounced back, narrowly dodging the poisoned silver needle: "Who the hell are you?"

The woman was still sitting on the ground, and the teacup and teapot in front of her were not messed up in the slightest: "Two choices, either help me do things, I will detoxify you, and help you go to Dongling to take He Suoyi's seat; or die in my hands Here, one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, if you are disobedient, you will have to die."

Mu Xi jumped up, ready to show his contempt for her with practical actions.

But just as he jumped up, a large net came down from above his head, and he was firmly pressed to the ground by the net, like a fish on the verge of death.

In the hazy yellow moonlight, the woman's face suddenly approached, her body had a light and elegant fragrance, just like the smell of lotus.

Mu Xi panted nervously: "What do you want to do?"

The woman flipped her wrist, revealing a bright and sharp dagger. She concentrated on pulling away the cloth from his abdomen, and said: "I know that the Zigu is in your stomach, I really want to cut it open to see how it grows. What kind, maybe it can be planted in Zhong Weiwei or His Majesty's belly, it must be fun."

The cold dagger pierced the skin of the abdomen, and the fear was suffocating, Mu Xi called out: "I will help you!"

The woman withdrew her hand with a smile: "Isn't it right to be so good earlier?"

She threw him something and took off the net: "You take this thing and go to Ke Baiqiu, the deputy commander of the Imperial Forest Army. He knows what to do. Then you have to stay and help him do things and listen to his instructions."

Mu Xi stood up slowly, didn't dare to ask anything, and left angrily.

The halo is getting thicker and thicker, and there is more humidity in the air.

"The sky is going to change." The woman looked up at the moon, and smiled with a smile on her lips: "Brother Jin, I will avenge you."

The fourth watch drum sounded, and yawned to Lu Ruosu's palace guards and clan, full of sleepiness: "It looks like it's going to rain."

"I can't afford it, it's cloudy at most."

Suddenly, there was a loud bang, and the door of the palace was slammed open. Everyone was startled and said, "What's going on?"

But he saw that the door of the palace was wide open, and there was no one around.

A palace man stroked his chest and said, "Oh, it seems to be blown by the wind."

Another palace man shrank into the corner: "How could it be the wind blowing, there is no wind at all..."

Suddenly, I saw a long figure walking in slowly, staying at the door, motionless.

The clan plucked up their courage and shouted: "Who are you? What are you doing? I'm going to call someone!"

That figure flew up suddenly, and went straight into the mourning hall, someone yelled: "Ghost..."

Everyone screamed and fled in all directions, and when they came to their senses, they heard a few crisp "pops", and bright flames shot up from Lu Ruosu's coffin, engulfing the hanging curtains and beams in an instant.

A few palace people tried to put out the fire, but more palace people were busy fleeing. After all, a powerless, fierce and dead queen is not worth losing her life for her.

When the gong sounded, the eunuchs' characteristic high-pitched voice sounded: "It's water, it's water!"
