Chen Palace

Chapter 148 Li Wei
When Yunluo heard her mentioning the emperor, she felt a chill in her heart. Then, she seemed to remember something, her complexion returned to normal, and she said with a charming smile: "I am in charge of the palace on behalf of the concubine Mei. There is chaos in the palace, how can it be good... Your majesty is so powerful and kind, he will definitely understand my heart."

She pretended to look at the sun, pointing at Sang Huai and angrily angrily annoyed the maid beside her: "You don't wink, what are you watching!"

Still not satisfied after scolding, he stretched out his onion-like nails and pinched them hard.

The maid suffered from pain, but her subordinates did not dare to stop, so they could only shake the lupine with tears in their eyes, making the cool wind faster and faster.

Chen Lu smiled coldly, but did not get angry, her black pupils as thick as lacquer flickered slightly, gave her a rather interesting look, and said with a smile: "Sister Yun, you are really hardworking..."

Seeing that her voice was flat, Yunluo became even more agitated, and said: "Where, I have been promoted and worked hard, and I am afraid that I will owe the empress dowager's deep kindness——"

She glanced at the pale lady, and said arrogantly: "You still don't go back, do you want to taste the taste of prison?"

"Concubine Yun, you are so dedicated to your duties, the Queen Mother must take you very seriously - but, do you have to check everyone who comes and goes in front of the Longsheng gate?"

Listening to her words, Yunluo vaguely felt that she was looking for Yang Baolin's bad luck. She kept on doing nothing, raised her head slightly, and said, "Of course we have to check one by one. The palace is important, so it's not like you can come in and out at will--sister Last time you lured those private soldiers into the palace, the Queen Mother was very upset!"

The private soldiers she mentioned were the elite that Chen Lu borrowed from General Zhou's mansion during the last palace change.

As soon as she said this, everyone around her was filled with resentment——

They all knew well that if Chen Lu hadn't led the army to rescue, the rebel party would have broken through the Shenwu Gate and entered the palace. Now that Yunluo has turned black and white, she is relying on the Queen Mother's words to ridicule Chen Lu. Too shameless.

Chen Lu glanced at everyone's reaction, secretly laughed in her heart, and said nothing more.

Yunluo thought more and more that she had frightened her by moving out of the queen mother, so she laughed dryly and raised her voice even more contentedly: "What are you doing, haven't you heard what I said - search all the people who come and go !"

The guards of Longshengmen all showed displeasure. As the emperor's close servants, they didn't need to obey the orders of a palace concubine. Teng Teng took the order and went.

Longsheng Gate was originally the place where palace eunuchs entered and exited, and some concubines and family members with low status also entered the palace to visit through this gate. When the guards blocked it, some people in twos and threes were stopped and searched, and immediately complained.

Yunluo sat in the shadow, chuckling lazily, looking at the chaotic scene in front of her, quite proud of her power.

Chen Lu didn't just leave, but also asked the guards to move a large sandalwood chair, and watched coldly from the side.

They sat quietly in the shadows, surrounded by palace servants like stars holding the moon, one was beautiful and beautiful, the other was awe-inspiring and noble, causing people who were blocked to peek at them from time to time, the situation was a bit weird.

At this time, Yunluo was in the limelight, and under the attention of everyone, she became more excited and instructed the guards to turn around.

When it was a young eunuch's turn, he was a little nervous, his forehead was covered with sweat, and Chen Lu couldn't help but stare at him. When she looked everywhere, she caught a glimpse of the person behind the eunuch with a faint glint in her eyes.

Yunluo looked at the eunuch, also a little strange, she shouted softly: "You! What are you doing sneakily?!"

The eunuch was shocked by this, and sweat broke out on his forehead. No matter how ignorant Yunluo was, she also felt that there was something strange inside. She was about to speak, but Chen Lu said from the side: "It's just a little eunuch. Scared, what to do with him!"

Yunluo sneered, and said leisurely: "Is sister begging for him..."

Her whole body was full of energy, thinking in her heart: There must be something strange between this person and Concubine Chen!
She stretched out her jade finger, pointed at that person, and shouted decisively: "Check him carefully for me!"

Before the words were finished, the man was about to run away, but the guards were quick-eyed and quick-handed, and pushed him to the ground, but he didn't struggle, but trembled like chaff, his complexion turned pale, and he fell to the ground stiff.

Yunluo was taken aback, she tiptoed lightly on the lotus steps, and approached to have a look——

A strand of purple-black blood slipped from his lips, the guard leaned over and reported, "He's dead!"

There was a fatal accident!
Yunluo turned pale with shock, she didn't dare to look at the dead, she took three steps back, was supported by the maid, and sat on the chair to rest.

After thinking about it, her eyes sparkled with excitement again. Regardless of the shock just now, she stood up and asked loudly, "How did he die?"

The leader of the guards was also terrified, stepped forward to inspect it carefully, and said: "It's the poison pill in my mouth!"

"This is a thief!"

Yunluo's eyes shone brightly, she gritted her teeth and said, thinking of her words just now, she was even more proud of this foresight.

She smiled gracefully, glanced at Chen Lu, and said softly: "Ms. Chen Concubine, I think you know this person..."
Chen Lu still had a smile on her face, and took the time to say:

"Sister Yun was joking, how could I know him—it's just the one behind here..."

She pointed to a person lined up behind the deceased and said something in a low voice.

"Is it today's emissary?!"

Yunluo was taken aback secretly, the exhilaration and surprise just now had begun to cool down.

Chen Lu waved at the man, and the man came close enough to pay homage to the two empresses, and he was indeed a secret agent of the emperor.

"This person sneaked into the Qianqing Palace and took away some things. We didn't want to startle the snake, so we followed silently. Who knows..."

He bowed his body, in front of Yunluo, he didn't want to blame anything, but anyone could hear the meaning behind his words.

Chen Lu smiled leisurely, and said politely: "Sister Yun, now you know why I let you let this little eunuch go... It's such a big case, but you startled the snake, and all the clues were broken. If the emperor knows Yes, I'm afraid..."

She stopped talking, but Yunluo froze on the spot, as if being poured over her head by a basin of ice water——

They were talking in a low voice, but someone on the other side shouted in alarm: "God! This is the little zygote in the Empress Dowager's Palace!!"

This sound was like a bolt from the blue, shaking everyone's hearts!
