Chapter 161: Someone has been here
Shen Tingyu watched quietly, not daring to disturb her.
After temporarily sealing his acupoints with silver needles, Miss Yi Han said to An Chi.
"Take him to a safe place quickly. I want to continue giving him the injection."
"Okay." An Chi hurriedly helped His Majesty up from the ground.
Out of the corner of my eye, I caught a glimpse of a newly dug-out small bump on the grass, and my heart skipped a beat. This is...
The group moved from the grass to the nearest clean room. When they opened the window, they could see the calm lake nearby.
Xin Hongying lay weakly on the bed.
Miss Yi Han continued to give him acupuncture with a focused expression, even though beads of sweat were oozing from her forehead due to excessive stress.
"I can only temporarily suppress the Zi Gu within him, but this won't last long."
She put away the silver needle, wiped the cold sweat from her forehead with a handkerchief, and asked slowly: Where is my...sister?
Fortunately, the two of them showed up in time, and Shen Tingyu's heart, which had been hanging high, fell halfway, but she was still worried.
Because the person who can remove the poison is still not here at the moment.
Shen Tingyu: "The Queen Mother's people are searching for him in the palace. He has changed his appearance. Even I don't know where he is now, but I have tried my best to find him."
…
Bai Feng, who had just left the greenhouse, heard a slight movement in the grass nearby.
He turned swiftly back into the greenhouse, his body pressed tightly against the pearwood door, his narrow eyes slightly narrowed, his mind highly alert.
Suddenly, something jumped out from the bushes and meowed softly.
Looking through the narrow crack of the door, facing the dim light of the early sun, Bai Feng looked doubtful. He clearly heard the cat's meow, but could not see the cat.
His hair stood on end, and his cold eyes scanned the area, searching for the cat.
Suddenly, the wooden door under his palm was pushed suddenly, as if a small hand was pulling at the door frame.
Bai Feng suddenly looked down, and with his drooping brows, he met the gaze of a black cat with an inky black body.
"It really is a cat."
The black cat stretched out its claws and pressed on his thin crescent-colored clothes.
The inky cat paws look like a splash of ink on a piece of pure white clothing. Others might find it aesthetically pleasing.
But Bai Feng only felt dirty.
Bai Feng's mysophobia kicked in, he pursed his lips and frowned, then took a step back to avoid its claws.
The sharp claws hooked onto the thread of the clothes, leaving a clear mark.
Bai Feng frowned even more tightly, worried that palace servants would come soon to take care of the flowers.
He ignored the cat and started to leave the greenhouse.
Before he could take a few steps forward, the black cat followed his footsteps, meowing a little anxiously, and even opened its mouth to bite his clothes.
Bai Feng could only stop helplessly, squat on the ground, and stroke the black cat's head with a little disgust, skillfully.
I touched the small tag hanging around its neck and said, "It's still owned. I don't have time to play with you right now."
Play?
The black cat enjoyed his stroking of its fur, narrowed its eyes, showed a look of contempt, and avoided the comfortable fingers.
After walking for a while outside, she raised her head and turned around, signaling him with her eyes to follow her. Seeing that he was squatting in the same place, she even meowed to urge him to follow.
The expression on the black cat's face was so vivid and anthropomorphic, as if it was guiding him somewhere.
Bai Feng was stunned, his eyes scrutinizing the black cat like a hawk, and suddenly he smiled softly, "So, you are the little pet sent by the goddess!"
The black cat meowed, ran a few steps gracefully towards the Observatory, and then looked back at him.
Bai Feng looked at the direction it left and immediately understood where it wanted to lead him.
"You mean, the goddess is waiting for me in the Stargazing Pavilion."
The black cat nodded, with its long and slender tail raised high, and its eyes seemed to say: Human, you finally understand, follow me!
The man and the cat left the greenhouse of Weiyang Palace.
After seeing them walk away, a short eunuch stood up from a hidden bush in the greenhouse, his body still covered with morning dew and fine grass debris.
The young eunuch heard Bai Feng's words clearly.
He smashed a pot of precious flowers of the Empress Dowager yesterday, and was punished by his father-in-law to kneel outside the greenhouse for a night.
But he fell asleep halfway, and when he woke up, he saw Bai Feng sneaking out of the greenhouse. He was frightened by the black cat, which looked very agile, so he hid himself again and dared not say a word.
The young eunuch's eyes lit up, it was his time to make a contribution.
He bypassed the eunuch in charge and did not dare to delay at all. He went straight to the nanny beside the Empress Dowager and told her about this matter.
When the nanny heard this, she was so surprised that she couldn't close her mouth.
"You really heard it. If you dare to lie to the Queen Mother, you will have to consider the consequences carefully. Don't let me be implicated."
The young eunuch was anxious. "This is absolutely true. Even if I had ten heads, I wouldn't dare to lie to the Empress Dowager."
The nanny was skeptical and told the empress dowager the news directly.
Mammy: "Your Majesty, I have something important to report..."
The weather was already hot and the empress dowager was in a bad mood because the emperor could not be found for a long time.
Upon hearing the news, the Queen Mother's first reaction was a little anger.
"Mammy, you're actually starting to fool me too."
"That monster I saw earlier, she died right before me. How could she be waiting for someone in the Stargazing Pavilion?"
The nanny reminded her, "Your Majesty, it's better to believe it than not to believe it."
"That monster might have other tricks up its sleeve. I suspect that Your Majesty is in the Stargazing Pavilion right now."
The Queen Mother's eyes moved slightly. What the nanny said was not without reason.
Her voice was as cold as ice: "If this is true, then I will kill her again!"
"That monster wants to play cat and mouse with me. It actually hid back in the Star Observatory. Does it think that the most dangerous place is the safest place?"
The Queen Mother's outstretched fingers gradually clenched, her long bright red nails were exceptionally eye-catching, and she had a confident look as if she had won.
"That's a mistake. It just gives me the opportunity to wipe out everyone at once."
The empress dowager moved her hand slightly, motioning the nanny to come closer and whisper something in her ear.
As he spoke, his eyes flashed with ferocity.
After the nanny took the order and left, a gleam of light flashed in the empress dowager's narrow and long phoenix eyes.
She returned to the bedroom, dismissed all the palace servants, and walked into the dark room through the secret passage.
There were countless secrets hidden in the dark room, so she naturally cared about them. The Queen Mother suspected that the suspicious little eunuch might be the mysterious Gu Master hiding in the palace.
The Queen Mother's eyes were cold, and she couldn't help but feel concerned.
She had to go to the secret room and take a look in person, otherwise she would always feel uneasy.
All the objects and furnishings in the darkroom were as they were before, as if no outsider had ever been there. However, the Queen Mother was so familiar with the darkroom that she could tell what was going on just by intuition.
Someone must have been here!
