"But it's too frequent. For example, at Xihuamen, there are usually three fixed shifts of guards on duty and patrolling, with six people in each shift, for a total of 18 people. But in the past three days, the guards on duty at Xihuamen have been mobilized. It has been more than 20 times, and hundreds of personnel have changed. The guards on duty at the palace gate are generally fixed personnel, and they may not be adjusted for months or even years. However, in recent days, the entire palace has been frequently in small areas. Internal adjustment of the military establishment."

"What do you think is the problem?"

Xuanyue has worked as a special agent, and she also understands that there must be some insider driving this unusual movement of the army.

Xiao Zhengnan said cautiously: "The last general does not dare to guess randomly, but this matter is most likely related to the Prime Minister."

Xuanyue was slightly startled, and said cautiously, "Are you sure?"

Xiao Zhengnan shook his head and said, "The last general is not sure! However, the last general tried to track down the inside story of the frequent adjustment of personnel, but was repeatedly shied away and obstructed by several lieutenants..."

Xuanyue blurted out: "Are those lieutenants who are prime ministers?"

"Yes!"

Xiao Zhengnan nodded solemnly.

Xuan Yue stared coldly in her eyes, and said, "What exactly does Liu Chengtian want to do? It stands to reason that he does not have direct command of the imperial palace army, even if those lieutenants are his people, you are the general at the critical moment, only you can Mobilize the army. What is the purpose of him doing such a small gesture behind his back?"

Xiao Zhengnan said: "This kind of frequent mobilization will directly cause chaos in the order of the palace guards, and it will cause a lot of disputes and chaos. The most likely situation is... This kind of timing is the easiest to sneak into the palace!"

"You mean there are assassins?"

Xuanyue asked in surprise.

Xiao Zhengnan said: "There is no evidence that any assassins want to enter the palace to assassinate. However, according to the current situation, this possibility is very high!"

Xuan Yuexiu frowned slightly and said, "If Liu Chengtian is the mastermind behind him, why did he arrange for an assassin to enter the palace? The people he hates most in the palace should be me and Xing An!"

Xiao Zhengnan said: "The last general also thinks so, so he hastened to report to the Empress!"

Xuanyue said: "What do you think about this matter?"

Xiao Zhengnan said: "The last will strengthen the guarding of the palace, and strictly prevent people from fishing in troubled waters. However, those who have the ability to enter the palace to assassinate are definitely not ordinary skills. The last will only worry that the assassin's martial arts are too high, and ordinary guards can't stop it! "

This is indeed a matter of concern.

The palace guards, Xuanyue knew it.

It can be said that it is not strict, but most of them are ordinary palace guards who reach out their hands, and there is no problem in dealing with ordinary masters. But once you meet the top masters, you will be powerless. She and Xing An can easily break into the palace. If the assassin's martial arts can reach their level, then breaking into the palace is not difficult at all.

"Empress Empress, according to the general's opinion, this matter should not be publicized, so as not to cause panic. However, we must also take strict precautions. Please allow the Empress to send palace guards to patrol and deploy defenses near Qinghua Palace."

"You do it."

"The last will obey!"

"By the way, you should also send more experts to strengthen the guards of Hongmei Pavilion."

"Queen Empress, what do you mean..."

Xiao Zhengnan looked at Xuanyue in confusion.

Xuanyue said lightly: "Your sister is now the queen mother, there will inevitably be people who are jealous, maybe someone is going to hurt her. She is your sister, you must protect her well. In this palace, the power struggle is very complicated. The water is deep. There are only two concubines from the Prime Minister's Mansion!"

She was implying that Xiao Zhengnan should focus on monitoring Yu Taifei and Liu Guifei, maybe one of them was conspiring to do something wrong.

Xiao Zhengnan said: "Don't worry, madam, you will know what to do at the end."

"It's okay, just go do it yourself." Xuanyue waved her hand, she hurriedly went back to accompany Xing An.

"Yes! I will retire at the end!"

Xiao Zhengnan hurried back to arrange a new security task.

Xuanyue returned to the bedroom, and saw Xianglian standing at the door in a serious manner, standing upright, quite comical.

"Slave, see the Empress."

"No more politeness."

"Queen Empress, no one has been here since you left."

"Very well. You go down, it's none of your business here."

"Yes! Madam."

Xuanyue waved her hand, drank Xianglian down, and walked into the bedroom.

Xing An was still lying on the bed, although he had fallen into a coma and his consciousness was blurred, but his face flashed with a struggling and painful expression. Xuan Yue knew that he was fighting the cold air in his body wholeheartedly at the moment. If it was before, she would definitely use her body temperature to warm Xing An, but now she can only watch him suffer and can't do anything. The situation made her feel so helpless.

Xuan Yue was alone, sitting quietly beside him.

Seeing the pained expression on his face, her heart ached like a tear.

A little bit of time has passed...

She also seemed to have turned into a stone, motionless, just looking at Xing An infatuatedly, for fear that something would happen to him.

In the evening, Jingjing brought the food, but she didn't have the appetite to eat it.

Even when Concubine Xiao came to visit in person, she avoided seeing it.

Concubine Xiao specially came to thank Xuanyue, she finally became the queen mother as she wished, and she also completed the enthronement ceremony of the queen mother. She is already an official queen mother! However, neither Xuanyue nor Xing An appeared during the enthronement ceremony. She thought that she had done something wrong and angered Xuanyue. So after dinner, she, the new queen mother, came to visit in person, which is also a kind of gratitude in action.

However, she did not expect that Xuan Yue would avoid seeing her.

Xianglian explained, Xing An's body had some problems, and she was relieved.

It turned out that something happened to the star!

She knew that Xing An was always very nervous in Xuan Yue's heart, and Xing An's affairs were more important than anything else. She also has nothing to do, just not going to the ceremony.

Without seeing Xuanyue, she, the queen mother, went back to her own bedroom.

It wasn't that Xuanyue didn't want to see Concubine Xiao, but she understood that Concubine Xiao had nothing important to do here, and she didn't want to leave Xing An, so she simply thanked her.

She wants to accompany Xing An all the time!

Until he wakes up again!

Until he opened his eyes and was able to see everything!

This is her duty as a wife!

Silent night.

The entire palace was also quiet, like a sleeping lion. Except for a few guards and eunuchs on duty patrolling, most of them have already fallen asleep.

The Qinghua Palace was silent, and there was no sound at all.

People are already asleep.

Xuanyue closed all the doors and windows, the autumn night was very cold, and she didn't want the stars to catch a cold. Now all his energy is resisting the backlash of the cold air, and his body is weakening.

The two candles on the table swayed weakly with weak flames, and occasionally made a crackling sound, breaking the dead silence.

Xuan Yue's icy face has become a little stiff.

She hadn't eaten all day, and her body was a little weak, but to her, it wasn't a big deal. She is so powerful that she can't die without food for a few days. It's just that she was even more thin and haggard when she was originally sad.
