In the room in the side hall, Xu Bu Ling's breathing was stable, and the whispers of several palace maids echoed in his ears:

"Sister Qiao'e, Prince Xu is so handsome, he is much better-looking than Master Xiao Second. In comparison, Master Xiao Second is like a monkey who just came down from a tree..."

"Shh~ Don't be heard by the Queen Mother, otherwise you won't think of leaving the palace in your next life..."

"Hehe... the Empress Dowager didn't say let us serve in bed, did she?"

"I didn't say...Don't make a bad idea. You sneak into the prince's bed tonight. If the prince is unhappy tomorrow, don't even want to stay in Changle Palace, let alone follow him..."

"Oh~ It's a pity... Unfortunately, Sister E, please ask, maybe the little prince wants you..."

Chicken, chicken.

Xu Buling felt someone stretched out his hand. It should be Qiao'e, the queen mother's close maid. She took advantage of the undress and leaned into her ear and sniffed Ru Lan: "Little Prince, do you want me to arrange a personal warm-up bed for you..."

Qiao'e was able to follow her into the palace because she was used to serve the emperor when her master was inconvenient. The family members carefully selected and trained them since childhood, and they were both good from appearance to temperament. It was probably because she knew that she would have to accompany the empress dowager to live alone in the future. When she met Xu Buling, she was encouraged by the palace maid and had some thoughts.

Xu Buling is not a ruthless monk. He was a little itchy when Qiao'e was seduced. However, if there is something important tonight, it is naturally difficult to appreciate. He had to act like "I'm good at killing people in my dreams", snorting coldly, turning around and facing inside.

Qiao'e was startled and didn't dare to speak anymore. She turned around and glared at a few palace maids who had bad ideas, then blushed and retreated and closed the door.

The house became quiet and the footsteps were getting farther and farther away.

Xu Buling covered his quilt and looked like he was sleeping soundly, waiting patiently for the drunkenness to pass by. During this period, a palace maid walked in and looked at it a few times, walked out again. The empress dowager seemed to have come, held his wrist and took the pulse, and then left again.

It took about two hours, and the time passed.

The sparsely populated Changle Palace was completely silent, leaving only the "whirring" sound of the cold wind blowing through the palace pavilion.

Xu Buling's drunkenness also disappeared. He opened his eyes, sat up silently from the bed, untied the strap around his waist, took off his white robe, exposed the dark night clothes inside, and took out the black cloth and the "human skin mask".

The ‘human skin mask’ is something used to disguise in the world, but it has been lost because of the fake and real thing. Now it can be found that it is just a piece of dough that can be applied to the face, looking like a piece of yellow cloth.

Putting on the shoddy dough, Xu Buling covered his face with black cloth, took off his boots and only wore black cloth socks, tied the door to handle the traces of the bedding, opened the window of the room and leaped out silently.

Dayue developed the country with martial arts. The masters of all kinds are like crucian carp across the river. Among them, the best ones cannot stop them. If there is no strong man in the palace city, Ning Qingye could enter the palace and kill the emperor and leave.

Xu Buling didn't know how many masters were hidden in the imperial city, but the king of a country must have a stronger appeal than the Su Palace. King Su has dozens of disciples under his command. It's not surprising that there are more than a hundred masters in the imperial city, so it's really not surprising that he is very careful.

Changle Palace is the residence of the empress dowager, and the location is not important, but the empress dowager's identity is here. If the flower-picking thief is killed by a flower-picking thief, the emperor may have to punish himself and apologize to the late emperor, so there must be masters hiding in the dark.

If it were an ordinary gangster, he would definitely not dare to run around secretly, but Xu Buling obviously did not belong to an ordinary person. He was famous for his military power at the age of sixteen, but it was not just a talk.

Although I cannot move my energy and fight power after being infected with the poison, it is obvious that I don’t need much effort to sneak, and it depends entirely on my perception and vigilance.

Xu Buling was like a ghost, and his toes were almost silent when he stepped on the snow. He wandered like the wind in the darkness, gradually passing through the Qianbu Lounge connected to the harem, and looked at the top of the Tai Chi Hall in the distance from time to time. There was auspicious beast squatting there for many years, looking at everything in the imperial city.

There are many rumors about Eunuch Jia in the world, such as "Eternal Age, Killing People Like Mass, Cultivating Evil Killing with Babies", etc., with extremely poor reputations, and are almost the standard template for the evil villains in chivalrous stories.

However, according to Xu Buling's understanding, Eunuch Jia had never left the imperial city alone. He was where the emperor was. Every day he went to court and yelled, retreated and yelled, and stood on the roof of the room at other times, probably without time to pay attention to the people in the martial arts world. There are many different opinions on how good Eunuch Jia is, no one has ever seen Eunuch Jia take action, and no one who has ever seen him would have the chance to tell him.

As the saying goes, "There is no vain under the reputation." According to Xu Buling's prediction, when Eunuch Jia was young, he was definitely the top martial artist in Dayue. Now that he is old this year, it is difficult to say whether his martial arts skills will decline or improve. After all, "The boxing is afraid of young and strong sticks is afraid of old wolves." It is difficult to make a conclusion on a person's martial arts attainments based on his age alone.

Xu Buling had already passed through the Qianbuling from the dark place and entered the harem. The palace complex in the harem was large, with thousands of palace maids and emperor concubines living in, and there were also many eunuchs. At this time, there were many people on night shifts, and people could be seen walking around.

The emperor Song Ji's reputation as diligent officials are well-known. They usually stay in the imperial study room and rarely come to the harem. They should also be in the imperial study room tonight.

Xu Buling quickly walked between the palace and the courtyard, and the speed was not fast, but the goal was clear. After Dayue broke into Chang'an, he directly settled in the imperial palace of Daqi, and there was no major construction to rebuilt. Most of the buildings in the imperial city have existed for hundreds of years, and the location of each house is not a secret. Xu Buling has been memorizing it these days.

Since Jia Yi was guarding Lizheng Hall, he must have lived there. Lizheng Hall is the empress's residence, located in the center of the harem, and it should have been a major place with the emperor's residence. However, Empress Cui died of illness a few years ago, and Song Ji refused to re-establish the queen, so Lizheng Hall was still the former residence of Empress Cui, and no other concubine dared to settle in without authorization.

Xu Buling came to the vicinity of Lizheng Hall, listened carefully to the movements around him, and after confirming that there was no one, he flashed over the outer wall and entered it.

Compared with other concubines' palaces, the Lizheng Hall is much more deserted, and it even has a bit of depression in the cold winter. There is no red lantern hanging, but white silk hanging between the veranda of flying eaves, without a single figure, but it does not look gloomy.

Xu Buling looked at it carefully and found that every corner of the Lizheng Hall was spotless and there was no snow.

The courtyard is full of peach trees, and white flowers are tied to the bare peach branches. Even in the middle of winter, it is like being in a peach forest.

The paper flowers tied to the peach branches are spotless and new, and have not been eroded by wind and snow. They seem to have been tied for a short time, and they may be replaced every few days, while Queen Cui has been dead for four or five years.

Thinking of this, Xu Buling couldn't help but secretly admire his infatuation today.

The two major regrets in the world are nothing more than "watching the heroes in their late twilight years and watching the beauty grow old."

The most sad thing in the world is that "the ambition is not fulfilled, and the beauty has passed away."

Compared with the former's sighs and sighs that the years are unforgettable, the latter is often more unforgettable. The most admired and obsessed characters in their hearts come to an abrupt end at the most glorious moment in their lives, and the regrets and sorrows left to the living are simply unaware of by those who have never witnessed it.

Dayue Jianghu still remembers the previous generation of "Xuanhe Bakui". It is not that there are really no beauties in the world, but that the sad endings of each beauty fall in my eyes, just like the Red Mansion, making people feel worried whenever I think of it.

Xu Buling heard Lao Xiao talk about the world of the world. Cui Xiaowan, the young lady of Cui in Youzhou, was a bookish beauty who was "weak, sick and sad" in the mouth of the storyteller. She did not have the various deeds of the heroes of the world, nor did she have the talent of the official ladies. Since she grew up at the age of fourteen, she has been staying in Cui's peach garden, three points shy and seven points delicate, and never went out.

Originally, the city of Jianghu didn't know that the Cui family had such a beauty hidden. Until one day, Xu Danqing, who liked to play in the world, broke into the Peach Blossom Forest to enjoy the scenery. With a glance, he was shocked.

It is said that countless Cui family guests arrived with knives at that time, but they saw Xu Danqing holding rice paper in one hand and brush in the other, chasing the Cui family in the peach forest, shouting, "I will kill me when I finish painting..."

When the head of the Cui family heard that it was Xu Danqing, he was so proud of his talent, so he was reluctant to kill him. After Xu Danqing finished painting, he drove away the Peach Blossom Forest and took the painting away.

Xu Danqing is a prodigal son in the world. His quirky personality has almost harsh requirements for paintings. Not only does he not have a memory after being born, he feels that painting in the peach blossom forest is a failure. At the risk of being chased by Cui, he secretly drew two more pictures. Unfortunately, he is not as good as the one in the peach blossom forest. Finally, he sighed, "It's better to die in the peach blossom forest."

It was because of Xu Danqing's words that Cui Xiaowan's name became famous all over the world overnight, and reached the point where everyone knew it. Countless wanderers and literary talents ran to the Cui family to propose marriage, almost squeezing through the archway building of the Cui family in Youzhou. This craze gradually faded until the appearance of the Tang family in Youzhou's words, "The beauty in the world is hard to enter the painting anymore."

It is impossible for a daughter of a family to marry into a poor family, and it is mostly a marriage between a good family.

Later, the first emperor passed away and the new emperor succeeded to the throne, and needed a mother to treat the world. The court officials looked for the daughter of the family, and originally had a crush on the Miss Tang family who was praised as the "Qianqiu Guose".

The Tang family was originally a long-standing family in the world, but after many years of giving Dayue, it gradually evolved into a general family. Its status in Dayue cannot be underestimated, and this move can also officially make the Tang family among the top families.

Unfortunately, things didn't go as expected. After the wedding team arrived at the Tang family, they found that the Tang family had escaped from marriage and disappeared.

The consequences of escaping from the emperor's marriage can be imagined. The head of the Tang family was furious and apologized to the court. While expelling the unfilial daughter from the house and sent someone to chase her. It was not until the lady of the Tang family hid and ran to the foot of Wudang Mountain to become a Taoist nun, and was protected by Wudang Mountain to escape.

The new emperor has ascended the throne, and all the civil and military officials are waiting for marriage. The bride-welcome cannot carry the empty sedan chair back. Seeing this, the nearby Cui family sent Cui Xiaowan to the sedan chair and became Dayue's queen.

Afterwards, there were few rumors in the world. When I heard Cui Xiaowan's news again, it was the imperial edict from the court. Empress Cui's accumulated worries and became sick for a long time but could not be cured, and she died in the deep palace.

Since then, Emperor Dayue has been rushing to the government all day long, rarely going to the harem, nor has he established a queen again.

Xu Buling saw the peach blossoms all over the garden, and except for a sigh, he didn't know what to say.

Stepping on—

When Xu Buling was thinking, a faint sound of footsteps suddenly appeared. He was shocked and hurriedly hid in the darkness.
