"Where's Xianxian? Why haven't I seen her again?"

Ruan Wenjun had just taken a sip of water when she heard Li Xiuzhu's question and said, "Xianxian went to the Heavenly Prison yesterday and went into seclusion again after returning."

Prison, seclusion? Is the blood-sucking bag so big? I envy my apprentice for no reason. What should I do? "Will you still appreciate the moon?"

"Well, the moonlight is beautiful tonight." Ruan Wenjun added with a hint of pleading: "Can you stay with me for a while? Just a quarter of an hour is fine."

Is this the lonely woman in the boudoir?

Li Xiuzhu didn't know whether Ruan Wenjun was lonely or in love, but he was obviously moved by her eyes.

Li Xiuzhu hugged Ruan Wenjun gently and whispered: "No matter how beautiful the moonlight is, it is not as beautiful as you. No matter how gentle the wind is, it is not as gentle as you."

He didn't answer Ruan Wenjun, but it was obvious that his words were telling Ruan Wenjun that he was willing to stay.

Ruan Wenjun's face turned slightly red and she leaned on Li Xiuzhu.

An hour later, Li Xiuzhu left.

When he arrived at the main hall, there were not many people left. The only concubines left in the harem were Concubine Hui and Concubine Shu, accompanied by the five princesses.

Noticing someone coming back, everyone looked over. When they saw it was Li Xiuzhu, Li Biyao turned her head away angrily. Even Concubine Hui's eyes were filled with reproach.

When Li Xiuzhu came closer, Li Liuli said in a sarcastic tone: "Hey, did you take a laxative and take a bath?"

"If you don't know, you might think this is a lost person."

Li Xiuzhu knew that he was in the wrong, and with two imperial concubines around, it was impossible for him to challenge Li Liuli. Anyway, you can say it, it's not like I'm going to lose a piece of meat.

But he still had to give a reason, so even though he knew that no one would believe him, Li Xiuzhu still said, "Hey, when I went out, there were no palace maids, so I got lost. In the end, I had no choice but to find a bush to solve the problem."

"Then I got lost again when I came back. I didn't dare to ask anyone and had to hide. I had no choice but to come back now."

After hearing this, Concubine Hui suddenly realized that she believed in the child.

Concubine Shu was just the opposite, she didn't believe it at all.

She is gentle and non-competitive, but she is wary of everyone. She is also smart and knows how to seek benefits and avoid harm.

To put it simply, it's just a little bit of paranoia.

So even if I see through her, I won’t say it out loud.

Li Liuli and Li Biyao didn't know whether it was true or not. Their emotions seemed to tell them that what he said might be true, but their reason seemed to tell them that there was something fishy going on. Fortunately, neither of them was the kind of person who wanted to get to the bottom of things, so they didn't ask any further questions after hearing what he said.

"Husband, shall we go home now?"

At this time, Concubine Hui said, "It will be dawn in another hour. Are you going back now?"

After hearing this, Li Biyao and the other two thought about it and said, "Let's go back. We are so sleepy today and we can't stand it anymore."

"Yes, Auntie, Biyao and Liuli have been shopping all day today, and they are indeed a little tired."

Only then did Concubine Hui nod.

"Okay then, I'll have someone escort you out of the palace."

Upon hearing this, Li Biyao quickly said, "Oh, no need, auntie."

"Tonight the sky is full of lights and the moon is bright, so there is no need for a send-off."

"Besides, Bi Yao and I are also skilled in martial arts, and my husband is also quite skilled, and we are in the palace."

Concubine Hui shook her head when she heard this.

"No, tonight, in addition to the people from the imperial palace, there are also many performers coming into the palace. If you go alone, your aunt will be worried."

Hearing this, Li Liuli curled her lips, always feeling that her aunt treated her like a child.

You have to know that she and the fifth sister are now second-rate masters. With the Lingbo Weibu, even first-rate masters can't stop them.

As for their husbands, they are even more powerful.

But my husband likes to hide his incompetence and pretend to be a pig to eat the tiger, so he said that he has some skills.

But now there are not so many tigers who dare to provoke her husband.

A real county duke, and also the current emperor's son-in-law, with the support of the prime minister and his father, who has nothing better to do? The three of them couldn't say anything more, and left the palace under the escort arranged by Concubine Hui.

Speaking of skills, these people are also skilled in martial arts, and most of them are second-rate masters. If they reach the position of commander, they will all be first-rate masters.

It is said that Leader Zhengtong is in seclusion. He has already reached the first-class perfection and it is very likely that he will reach the peerless level after coming out of seclusion.

When the three of them returned home, the two girls fell asleep immediately. Li Xiuzhu was not sleepy, so after washing up, he also lay down reluctantly.

In order to keep his body energetic, he needs to rest for an hour or two every day.

He can meditate or sleep, but he personally prefers sleeping.

But just an hour after he lay down, he suddenly heard the sound of soldiers and screams outside.

Li Xiuzhu was not sleeping soundly to begin with, and he sat up upon hearing the sound.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

His heart sank slightly, and he wondered who had attacked him.

At this point, everyone is resting, and even though a tunnel leading out of the city has been dug, not everyone can leave.

Among the female guards he trained, few were capable of taking on important tasks, and the strongest one was only at the peak of third-rate.

Just as he got dressed, there was a knock on his door.

"Master, are you up?"

Li Xiuzhu nodded and walked forward to open the door, then looked at Du Sanniang.

"Master, there are a large number of troops outside the gate. They said they are the imperial guards of the palace. They want you and the two princesses to go and question them."

The Royal Guards? Why are they here?

But as long as he is not dealt with suddenly, it will be fine.

Li Xiuzhu frowned slightly, but still walked out first.

"Go and wake up the two princesses. I'll go take a look first."

Du Sanniang looked at Li Xiuzhu's back with some worry. Obviously, even if she had never experienced it, she knew that it was definitely not a good thing for soldiers to surround the mansion.

Li Xiuzhu saw the commander leading the troops, bowed and said, "Commander, I wonder what happened?"

Upon hearing this, the commander glanced at Li Xiuzhu and then looked behind him.

"Where are the two princesses? His Majesty and the Queen are waiting."

"I've already called you. There has to be a time to wake up, right?"

The commander nodded after hearing this, and after thinking for a while, he realized that Li Xiuzhu could not be the murderer and could not turn the tables, so he hesitated for a moment and said, "I can't say the details, I can only say that something big happened in the palace."

While speaking, the commander stared at Li Xiuzhu. A person's eyes and micro-movements can reveal a lot of things. He wanted to see Li Xiuzhu's possibilities first, and then decide what to do next.

Li Xiuzhu was stunned when he heard this. Big deal? What big deal? And why did it involve the Queen? Did someone see what happened between me and the Queen?

What should we do if it is true? Get rid of Li Kuo in advance and let the prince ascend the throne?

Or be detained first and then escape from Da Zhou?

Seeing that Li Xiuzhu was slightly startled and then began to think, without any sign of guilt or panic, the commander was roughly certain that this matter had nothing to do with Li Xiuzhu.

In other words, Li Xiuzhu was confident and not panicking, otherwise the commander might have really seen through something.

At this time, he didn't know that what he was worried about and the matter of the Royal Guards coming to find him were two different things.
