Chen Palace

Chapter 17
She was almost in a trance, tonight and what night?
Many years ago, there was a pair of identical twin sisters who bowed down in front of me in scanty clothes:
"Xiaochen, your great kindness and virtue, we will never forget it."

They were a pair of imperial concubines of the former Emperor Jingle. The city broke down and fell into the hands of the Tatars, and they have not been heard from since then.

34 years later, at the first glance, she is already a woman, and she is looking at herself curiously, puzzled by the familiarity in her tone:
"You are……?"

Qu Yun couldn't help explaining, dragged the two of them upstairs, and talked to Qing Min behind the screen for a while, the latter didn't believe it at first, but she came to him and looked at it carefully, but finally shed tears: "That's right, in the whole world, only Xiao Chen has such a A pair of eyes!"

Chen Lu has always been cold-hearted, and at this moment she couldn't help being moved, she pulled Qing Min Di Ji's hand, feeling that it was extremely rough, and there were scars everywhere.

"Qing Min, why did you come here?"

Qingmin held Chenlu's hand tightly, her eyes were full of water, she sighed, and finally said:
"When the news of your death reached Hulu Khan, he was so sad that he couldn't help himself. He sighed: 'The emperor of the Celestial Dynasty destroyed the Great Wall himself!' He called our sisters and talked about the first time we met you in the capital. God, let someone send our sisters to the mainland of China—although he is a barbarian and foreign prisoner, he is an upright man, and he has always kept his bet with you before, let us sisters do some work under the tent, and no one will bully him."

When Qing Min said this, she was very grateful, and then she changed her tone and immediately became excited: "The Tatar barbarians treat people with courtesy, but when we arrived in the Central Plains, our sisters suffered the greatest disaster in our lives - we traveled thousands of miles to the capital. , the money on her body was almost used up, Xuan Min said: Lin Yuan is now a queen, and our mother and concubine are also from the side line of the Lin family, so she will not die! She went to Miyagi regardless of my dissuasion See you, and never come back from now on!"

Qing Min's voice turned into a shrill voice: "It snowed so much that year, I begged and begged at the gate of the palace, but no one answered. I went day by day, and finally a manager couldn't bear it, and pulled me aside and said: 'Stop entangled here, let me tell you, this person is long gone! If you behave like this, one day you will be killed."

"At that time, I was like a thunderbolt, and I wanted to crash to death in front of the palace wall. I didn't expect to be beaten unconscious. In the dimness, I heard the group of people arguing. One said that he would follow the order of the palace to clean up the matter. The other said that I look good, and wanted to sell me to a brothel, I was anxious and angry, and when I woke up, I was in the 'Red Silk Courtyard'..."

Her body trembled slightly, and she couldn't speak anymore, as if she had fallen into a great nightmare. Qu Yun shook her hand, and she smiled back, before continuing: "At that time, I was whipped every day, and I was whipped several times. Fleeing, only in exchange for even more tragic humiliation... The last time, I ran into Qu Yun..."

She stared at Qu Yun with a beautiful smile, Qu Yun blushed a little, but finally squeezed her hand tightly.

Facing Chen Lu, she showed a small child's mysterious smile: "Qu Yun asked me to keep something for you, and now it can be returned to the original owner."

"Today is not the time to gather, the leaders of several parties are not here, you should take a look at this first."

Chen Lu took over a thick stack of book-like things and flipped through it, the more she looked at it, the more frightened and excited she became.

With her blood boiling, she raised her head and looked at the two of them—Qu Yun was looking at her with a doting smile, and Qingmin Emperor Ji was elegant and elegant, with sassy eyes and a smile.

Chenlu's tears finally flowed out.After suffering so many disasters, she did not cry. Today, she finally shed tears when she saw two or three confidants silently paying for her and working hard for 26 years.

This thick book records the intricate, secretive and huge organizational power of "Chenlou". In the past 30 years, it has done countless earth-shattering but unknown events.

In her previous life, in order to grasp the general trend of the world, she specially formed this secret organization that spread all over the world. The members are all lonely young men. , converging into points, lines, and planes, it is the ghostly dark blade in her hand.

She went there suddenly back then. Unexpectedly, Qu Yun, who is usually dull, tried his best to maintain it and didn't let it disappear. Qingmin Emperor Ji was ice-snow and smart. After taking over, she quickly made it grow and become the current giant. situation.

Emperor Ji Qingmin stood up, Lianyi bowed to her: "If you hadn't rescued us back then, our sisters would have been trampled to death long ago. For more than twenty years, I have always had a thought in my heart to make the 'Chenlou 'Take care, when I hand it over to you, I will not humiliate your hard work. Today's long-cherished wish has been fulfilled!"

Chen Lu was surprised: she has been waiting for herself?But she clearly knew the news of her death...

Qu Yun answered her doubts: "At that time, Master received the news of your death and looked at the stars at night, only to find that your natal star has not fallen, but has only turned dim. The old man was very relieved and said to me, you are still alive. There is a chance of surviving. Although we are skeptical, there is always this ray of hope in our hearts... Now that you are reborn, it is a pity... Master, the old man, is no longer here!"

His eyes were flushed, he was hurt by the scene, and his voice couldn't help but choke.

Chen Lu's heart was surging and she couldn't help herself—it turned out that in the past 26 years, her relatives and friends have never forgotten herself, and they have been looking forward to her return.

The three hands folded together tacitly, and the three of them laughed in unison, and their voices were extremely carefree——

"For our reunion, let's drink this cup!"

****
When Chen Lu and Qu Yun returned to the palace, from time to time, there were still strong men dressed in government uniforms searching the street with a ferocious expression—it seemed that the pair of little mandarin ducks had left the city safely.

Those servants were reckless and arrogant, rampaging on the street, and pedestrians gave way one after another.

They simply showed their dog-legged qualities, ordering some fruit at the east stall, teasing the little girl at the west stall, and then laughing, life is very pleasant.

A burst of galloping hooves interrupted their arrogance——

A tall and strong man of a foreign race dressed in black iron armor was coming on a horse.Followed by a team of attendants, all of them are handsome and handsome, with a very good look on their faces.

When he saw this group of big men who were raging, he rushed straight over without moving his eyebrows or eyes. Suddenly, two people screamed and were trampled by horseshoes. Looking at the pool of blood, they probably couldn't live.

The servant, who was more agile, was about to slash the horse's hooves with a simple knife in his hand. The man drew out his big sword and leaned over to meet him lightly. Going out, one handle even broke in two.

The man finally reined in his horse. Looking at his hairstyle and clothes, he was a young Tatar nobleman.Facing the sun, his dark skin shone with a dark golden honey-colored luster. On his extremely handsome face, he smiled domineeringly and confidently:
"Unexpectedly, the majestic kingdom of heaven would be ravaged by a group of villains... How come I don't feel the slightest sense of the state of etiquette that you Han people talk about?"

The loud and clear weird accent caused the onlookers to boo. There was hatred in their eyes, but they couldn't refute it.The bloody ones can't wait to butt their heads to death—let this shameful scene be seen by the Tatar savages, how can the face of the people of the Celestial Dynasty be saved?
Chen Lu suddenly remembered that a few days ago, Yuan Qi mentioned that a Tatar envoy came to the capital to deliver a letter written by Hulu Khan in the capital.

****
The two hurried back to the Qianqing Palace, but saw that the atmosphere inside was dignified, and all the palace eunuchs were trembling. Qin Xi stood guard at the door, and when he saw the two coming hand in hand, he immediately frowned: "Commander Qu, Lord Shangyi, you are back!" ...Long live, Long Yan is furious right now!"

Chen Lu walked in, and Qu Yun knew that she could handle it, so she also walked towards the commanding office—a lot of government affairs today have not been dealt with yet!
Chen Lu walked to the inner hall, and saw Yuan Qi looking anxious, reviewing the memorial, dripping with ink pen, and wrote a lot in the yellow book.

Seeing her coming back, he asked directly: "Did you see her on the way back?"

This nonsensical sentence, but Chen Lu understood it: "I see, the Tatar's words and deeds are really abominable, but the people in Jing'an's mansion are too arrogant to disturb the people..."

The emperor threw down the vermilion pen, picked up the report on the "scene on the street" that had just been reported by Feiqi from the Ministry of Rites, and squeezed out a few words from his teeth: "Laugh the world!"

Chen Lu didn't show any anger at all, she said politely: "Why is the emperor getting angry, it's a godsend opportunity for you to come here—Grand Jing An has such a bad reputation, you can take advantage of the opportunity to punish his faction..."

On the second day, a decree came out from the palace that Duke Jing'an was lax in his command and harassed the people.In the name of dereliction of duty, several ministers from the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Officials were dismissed. They were all friends with him on weekdays.

(There will be a super exciting tomorrow, don't miss it!)
