The ruthless prince and the enchanting concubine

Chapter 273
Suddenly, the masked man stopped and gritted his teeth, because the mysterious black figure suddenly disappeared from his sight...

It was so unbelievable that the black shadow was like a ghost that had escaped into the underworld, and could no longer be seen.

The next second, the man wearing the mask suddenly felt a gust of cold wind blowing through his back, the bone-piercing cold, and he finally recognized where he was now.

Now he is on the edge of the imperial mausoleum in the east of the imperial capital...

A sense of fear instantly hit this person's heart, and now he is completely confused, could it be... is it a ghost that he has been following?
Outside the imperial mausoleum at night, it was eerie, and the stern cold wind carried a bone-chilling chill. Looking around, it was quiet and empty, which only aroused fear.

After thinking for a while, the masked man left this ominous place and flew towards the imperial capital again.

……

After several days of trekking, Nangong Jin finally returned to the imperial capital triumphantly, and the troops under him were still settled in the military field outside the city.At this time, the news that the coalition forces defeated the bandits of the Western Jin Dynasty had already spread in the imperial capital. Everyone knew that Nangong Jin had made great contributions to Feng Nanchao again. On the way Nangong Jin returned to the palace from the city gate, countless The people crowded the road and stayed still, just to witness the victorious King Jing'an's demeanor, but Nangong Jin walked for an hour for a few miles, relying on his guards to clear the way, and finally returned to the palace. middle.

Facing the praise of the people in the imperial capital, Nangong Jin didn't feel the slightest feeling, he just kept a cold face all the way, and he didn't feel the slightest sense of satisfaction for the victory of the war.

Nangong Jin didn't intend to go to see Nangong Huan first, after all, he still felt a little unhappy in his heart now, he knew that even if he didn't go to see Nangong Huan, Nangong Huan would not do anything to him, so he simply took a day off and went back tomorrow.

After returning to the palace, Nangong Jin didn't have the slightest feeling of kindness. In his opinion, the Jing'an Palace is just a big empty and heartless house...

After all, there is no more beautiful woman to greet him in triumph, no more the warmth that should be there.

After returning to the palace, Nangong Jin didn't do anything, she locked herself in the Weili Building, fell asleep, didn't eat all day, and didn't receive any officials who came to visit.

Perhaps, his heart is really too tired...

It wasn't until night that Nangong Jin woke up sleepily. Everything in front of him was so clear and familiar, as if he had never left the palace, nor had he experienced the tragic war so many days ago.

Chang Xin, who had been waiting outside the door until Nangong Jin got up, entered the Weili Building and asked if Nangong Jin wanted some food. Nangong Jin finally seemed to have some appetite, and ordered Chang Xin to go down and prepare.

Not long after, the servants brought countless delicacies, arranged cups and plates, and filled the round table in the Weili Building.

After sending everyone out, Nangong Jin sat alone and poured himself a drink. At this moment, a faint sense of loss surged in his heart, and he looked intently at the seat beside him from time to time.

"Yan'er..." Nangong Jin read silently, reaching out and gently stroking the mahogany seat, as if feeling the tenderness that had long since ceased to exist. With a smile on his face, he gently took the cup and gently filled the wine glass in front of him...

However, after the next second of concentration, the room is still empty, where is there any shadow of Condensed Yan...

After drinking down the strong wine in her hand, Nangong Jin filled it up again, and drank it down again. Repeated this several times, within a short time, she became three-point drunk.

After such a blurred meal, after half an hour, Nangong Jin finally finished eating, and the servants walked into the room one after another and removed the leftover seats.

The lights were dim and flickering, and Nangong Jin was the only one left in the Weili Building. He sat alone on the bed, looking at the empty room with drunken eyes, and warm illusions appeared before his eyes from time to time.

In this way, Nangong Jin sat for a long time, although he was a little drunk, but because he had slept all day, he didn't want to fall asleep at this moment.

There was the sound of a watchman knocking outside the window, it seemed that it was already late at night.The noisy palace has gradually fallen into silence, and the servants have all fallen asleep one after another...

Suddenly, a light flashed in Nangong Jin's eyes, and he was keenly aware of someone outside the window.

The two carved windows quietly opened, and the familiar white figure leaped into the Weili Building. Immediately, the window sash behind him was tightly closed by an invisible force. The next second, Gu Yihan respectfully appeared in front of Nangong Jin.

"My subordinates see the prince, and congratulate him on his safe and triumphant return." Gu Yihan said in a low voice and coldly.

The corners of Nangong Jin's mouth raised slightly, and he waved his hand.

"Yi Han, I really didn't expect you to come tonight."

Gu Yihan quietly hid his figure behind the mahogany pillars of the Weili Building, so that even if someone entered the room abruptly, they would never find his presence.

"My lord, you just returned today, and my subordinates didn't want to disturb you. It's just that my subordinates want to tell your lord something. Maybe your lord will be interested in these things."

"Oh?" Nangong Jin's cold eyes flickered, and she was still sitting on the bed just now.

"What's the matter, tell me."

Gu Yihan's voice behind the pillar was soft, but Nangong Jin heard it so clearly.

"My lord, do you remember that your subordinates told you about this before you went out last time? Recently, a mysterious man in black always appears in the palace at night. I don't know if it is an enemy or a friend."

Nangong Jin raised her eyebrows slightly: "Of course I remember, what's wrong? Go ahead."

"Yes. According to the investigation of Ye Xiao's brothers in the past few days, they finally got some clues. This person seems to be... related to the royal family."

"What?!" Nangong Jin was startled.

"This person is quite familiar with the terrain of the palace, as if he has stayed here before, and sometimes he will go to some secret palaces that even Ye Xiao doesn't know, and stay for an hour or two. It seems that he is quite impressed by the affairs of the palace. Interesting, and just last night, this person appeared again, just happened to be discovered by the brothers who were arranged by his subordinates in the palace, and he has been secretly following him. Last night, the emperor went to the harem to have dinner with the queen mother, and this person was in the harem room Po Shang kept eavesdropping on him, and seemed to be very concerned about the things between them, and he didn't leave until the emperor left the harem." Gu Yihan narrated to Nangong Jin what happened last night in detail, and Nangong Jin only felt that The matter is getting more and more confusing.

"Did Ye Xiao's brother follow this person to his residence or hiding place?" Nangong Jin asked curiously.

"My lord, Shengming, that's what my subordinates did. One of Ye Xiao's brothers followed him outside the city, and that person disappeared near the imperial mausoleum. All his actions seemed to be related to the royal family, so my subordinates doubted whether this person really Is there any inextricable connection with the royal family..." Gu Yihan said his speculation.

"Royal family..." Nangong Jin secretly thought, if this is really the case, wouldn't it have something to do with Nangong Huan or himself?

After a while, Nangong Jin continued to ask.

"Yi Han, do you have any other clues?"

"Back to the prince, this is all the information. I thought you might be interested, so I came to see you overnight."

"Hmm..." Nangong Jin seemed to have fallen into a boundless quagmire, and the sticky mystery wrapped him tightly at this moment. The more he tried to figure it out, the deeper he sank.

"By the way, I asked you to check the note I gave you last time. What did you find out?" Nangong Jin suddenly thought of this again.

Gu Yihan was silent for a while, and then told the truth, "Forgive me, my lord. Regarding this matter, my subordinates don't have any clues yet..."

"Well, don't worry, check it out slowly, I always feel that the man in black who wrote this note may be inextricably linked to the man in black who sneaked into the palace you mentioned." Nangong Jin said silently thought in mind.

"Yes, my lord, I will try my best to do it. My lord, you are exhausted on the way home. Let's rest early today. I will take my leave. If there is any news in the future, I will let you know as soon as possible."

"Well, let's go." Nangong Jin slowly closed her eyes, as if she wanted to clear her mind.

The room became quiet, and after the window slammed, Gu Yihan disappeared.Nangong Jin got off the ground gently, came to the window, looked out, only the bleak moonlight, no trace of anyone just coming.

After closing the window lattice again, Nangong Jin put his hands behind his back and started pacing aimlessly in the room. He, who was not sleepy at first, was full of energy now.

He didn't understand, did the black shadow that Gu Yihan mentioned really have any subtle connection with the royal family as he deduced?What is the purpose of this person visiting the palace at night again and again?
However, at this moment, what he wants to know more is whether this black shadow is the same person as the black shadow who gave him the Wuxiang internal energy...

He would never have imagined that within the time Gu Yihan left for less than three bowls of tea, the window behind him opened again strangely. When Nangong Jin finally realized all this and suddenly turned around, he opened his eyes wide. Eye.

"Hahaha..." The uninvited guest sneered in a low voice and came to Nangong Jin.

"Nangong Jin, you have some tricks! The person who left just now should be your elite spy, right?"

Nangong Jin's face sank, unexpectedly, the mysterious person in his mind just now appeared in front of him without warning.

This person's voice is so familiar, he is the man in black who taught Nangong Jin the Wuxiang Internal Strength...

After Gu Yihan left, the mysterious man in black reappeared and appeared in Nangong Jin's room without warning, staring at him indifferently, sneering from time to time.
