According to the rules, Zhao Wanxi got up and sent Leng junao out. On the way back, she kept silent and didn''t know what she was thinking. Joan, who accompanied her on one side, looked very sad.


    "I didn''t expect that the ninth king of Xiqi would compromise so easily. I thought..."


    There will be many twists and turns.


    After all, the person Ouyang shengqian really looks up to is her mother, and the master is not good at it.


    Thinking of this, Joan could not help but have another layer of worry.


    "Cough, madam, do you think he really has a crush on Miss Ren, the legitimate daughter of the doctor?"


    Even though she asked like this, Joan could not help noticing the insincerity and suspicion in her words.


    She didn''t mention Zhao Wanxi, but she forgot. When she said that, she soon realized something, and her expression was dignified. At first, the response sounds like a wrong answer and shakes his head regretfully.


    "Not necessarily, who knows? It''s a pity that Miss Ren is a lady in a boudoir. "


    "What a pity?"


    This is not clear, people can not guess, Joan smell speech, as expected is a face muddled, "Niang Niang, why is it a pity?"


    In the face of her doubts, Zhao Wanxi didn''t say a word. She sighed again. The worries that had been lingering in her heart all night were slowly climbing up the corner of her eyes.


    "I hope I think too much. "


    It''s rare to see her like this, which makes Joan a little confused. Seeing her master leave, she subconsciously follows her and steps over the steps in front of the hall with one foot. Then she sweeps the blinding on her face and stares at her in shock.


    "Lady, what do you mean is to say..."


    Unfortunately, before she finished, she was suddenly interrupted by Zhao Wanxi.


    Different from Joan''s state of staying on the previous topic, Zhao Wanxi''s dignified face and sharp eyes scan around quietly, but she doesn''t find any abnormality.


    But at the same time, her nose moved a little, and the bottom of her eyes was a little dark.


    "Joan, do you smell anything?"


    "Taste?"


    Seeing that there was something wrong with her master, Joan was in a state of alertness. She looked around warily, especially at the palace people who came to collect the main hall for a long time. After making sure there was nothing abnormal, she provoked her nose for several times.


    Unfortunately, obviously nothing was found.


    "What''s wrong with me? I need a servant to call someone... "


    "No more."


    Because in medicine, we often need to identify medicinal materials. Zhao Wanxi''s nose is more sensitive than ordinary people. Now that Joan didn''t hear it, she called someone else. It didn''t help.


    Waving to stop her, Zhao Wanxi frowned. According to her own feeling, she began to walk in one direction, across the corridor, and finally stopped on a path.


    Next to the lush flowers, nothing remarkable.


    Joan''s reaction is quick. When she walks this way from Zhao Wanxi, she quickly asks for an angry wind lamp from a eunuch. She looks at the master''s stop. Without waiting for orders, she takes the lamp and looks at it carefully.


    The flowers on one side were neat, and there was no damage to the eyes. The ground was clean, and there was no problem at all.


    Fearing that she might miss it, Joan observed it very carefully, and finally determined that there was nothing unusual. Then she looked at Zhao Wanxi in a puzzled way.


    But found that she has been frowning at the ground, action almost never changed. When Joan couldn''t help feeling a little uneasy, she saw Zhao Wanxi squatting down and touching the ground.


    After a few strokes, she put her finger under her nose and sniffed it carefully. At first, it was nothing, but soon, Zhao Wanxi''s eyebrows wrinkled deeper.


    The expression is even more strange.


    "This place, once stained with blood. It''s just It''s been dealt with in a special way. And this kind of treatment means.... "


    There is a bit strange, even familiar with the drug of her, almost muddled in the past.


    Joan couldn''t keep up with the rhythm. After confirming that she didn''t find anything unusual again, she tried to guess.


    "Don''t be someone who was knocked when cleaning. After all, this is Qionghua palace."


    The place specially ordered by the emperor to be protected, no matter who it is, it doesn''t have the courage to make trouble here.


    "What''s more, it''s so close to the main hall. Even if there''s any movement, we were just in it, and we''ve been startled for a long time."


    "It makes sense, but..."


    After looking up and observing the distance, Zhao Wanxi unconsciously shook her head and stretched out her arm again. This time, however, she explored the root of the flowers on one side.


    Then she said something, and Joan didn''t despise it at all."The soil here, which has been newly turned over, should have been dug deeper than it was loosened. And these flowers I always feel that... "


    After all, it''s already dark, so she can''t be sure of anything by relying on a lantern. All she can rely on is her own intuition, touch and sense of smell.


    Therefore, there are some uncertain hesitations in the discourse.


    But these hesitations were not important in Joan''s ears. She couldn''t help being nervous just looking at her master''s dignified look.


    "Lady, are you Guess what? "


    I don''t know if it''s affected. When Joan asked, there was an illusion of blood Lingering between the wings of her nose.


    Just in response to her, Zhao Wanxi is still not sure, "it''s a bit strange. You''d better find someone to have a closer look tomorrow morning."


    I just hope that there will be no other changes in one night.


    With that, Zhao Wanxi clapped her hands and stood up, suddenly thinking of something.


    "By the way, what about pomegranates? Didn''t I tell her to send the message? How come it''s all this time, but no one is there yet? "


    At her mention, Joan came back to herself, followed by a rebuke.


    "This little girl is getting more and more unruly."


    Although in the mouth scolds, but Joan on the face of worry, already is a glance.


    After all, Joan was dissatisfied with her sister, but she couldn''t help but worry. She just sent Zhao Wanxi back to the bedroom, and then she took people to look for her.


    It''s been a long time.


    It''s strange that such a living man disappeared after entering the gate of Qionghua palace under the eyes of the palace people escorted from Donggong.


    The missing is so thorough that there is no trace left. Rao finally startled the palace guards, but he was not found.


    Zhao Wanxi has something in her heart, so she can''t rest. She has been waiting for the first news in her bedroom. Just after she sorted out the events of the past few days, especially all kinds of abnormalities at today''s banquet in her mind, she saw that Joan, who had been busy in the middle of the night, came in with a sad face.


    But not empty handed.


    Fixed eyes to see her hand, has been opened the box, Zhao Wanxi''s eyes immediately sink.


    "Love? Where did you find it? "


    Pomegranate is responsible for bringing this thing from the east palace. Now that sushi has found it, pomegranate has news. It''s just that Joan doesn''t look right. Zhao Wanxi can only think about the bad side.


    "But what happened to pomegranate?"


    Hearing this, Joan just shook her head.


    "If you go back to your mother, the pomegranate hasn''t been found. This flower was found by the eunuch on duty from a wing room in the back hall. There are no pomegranates in it. "


    "No one? That''s not right


    Pomegranate disappeared, but the flower was intact to find back, how to see, this thing is not quite right. At this point, if you can''t find the problem, it''s too late.


    Combined with the previous guess, the air pressure on Zhao Wanxi''s body dropped a little bit, and the whole person became cold a lot in an instant. Suddenly speaking, there is still some solemnity that cannot be ignored.


    "Joan, you go to ask, before the emperor sent to guard in Qionghua palace all over the Ming Wei dark Wei, but still?"


    "Niang Niang, you..."


    At this time, isn''t it important to find pomegranate? Why are the dark guards involved?


    Joan was too anxious to figure out the connection for a moment, until Zhao Wanxi turned her eyes and suddenly understood the meaning.


    "Yes, I understand. I''ll see it now!"


    Guarding Qionghua palace, the dark guards everywhere must have bright eyes. Anything in the palace must not escape their eyes.


    Why didn''t she think of it in the first place?


    As a secret guard, those secret guards who had been assassinated in Leng Yulin and had been specially sent to Qionghua palace to protect Zhao Wanxi''s safety were naturally hidden.


    Of course, no matter how good it is, it still can''t hide Joan''s eyes. In the evening four of the training, she also has a little necessary ability.


    That''s why Zhao Wanxi sent her out to check.


    After qiong''er takes orders to leave, Zhao Wanxi doesn''t worry. It''s already early in the morning. She calls a palace maid again and orders her to come to Mingyue pavilion to show her love.


    Immediately, without any delay.


    It''s ten minutes after midnight, just when I''m sleepy. Clay figurines have three clay natures, not to mention normal people. However, in the bedroom of Mingyue Pavilion, the sound of calling is like a wake-up call.


    "Lady? Lady, wake up, lady? The empress is in a hurry to let you pass without delay. Mother... ""You cheap hoof, I think you want to fight!"


    "Pa pa..."


    Wake up by own palace maid, angry Bai Lian can''t help but fan a few slaps in the past, out of that share get up turbid gas, just have the mood to listen to her talk.


    After being beaten, the maid in waiting didn''t dare to make a sound. She didn''t even dare to make any unnecessary grievances. She covered her side face and repeated what she had just said. After listening to it, Bai Lian''s sleepiness disappeared completely.


    "You say, the queen declares me? Now? "


    How can I feel a little uneasy.


    When she got out of bed, Bai LianWu went to the dresser by herself, opened a box on it, took out the butterfly''s hairpin, and looked at it by candlelight. Her eyes were very upset.


    Finally, he became angry and threw the hairpin back. Then he said in a vicious voice, "don''t you come here to make up for our palace?"


    The empress can be summoned by order. Naturally, there must be no delay. The maid in waiting helped to clean up, but after a while, it was ready.


    But Bai Lian was uneasy in the end. Before she went out, she took a look in the mirror and made sure there was nothing wrong with it. Then she walked out with anxiety. To the door, the heart in the end or feel not safe, a pull off the maid of honor Mu duo, attached to her ear whispered a few words what, finally dawdled out of the door.


    After she left, mu Duoli hung her head at the door and hesitated for a long time. After all, she left Qionghua palace and went towards Changjing palace with a lantern.


    But the time is still early, everywhere the door has not been opened, it is necessary to wait for some toss.


    Because of the inexplicable disappearance of pomegranate, Qionghua palace was in a state of bright lights all night.


    Zhao Wanxi leaned on the soft couch and rubbed her forehead with some headache, but her eyes were clear and sleepless.


    Shao Qing, there''s something about it outside. With a whisper of conversation and inquiry from the maid on duty, Joan comes in quickly. Face a change in the past beautiful, slightly with a bit dignified, a heavy look.


    Knowing that his master was waiting, he didn''t want to show off. He came over and bent his knees, and then he came forward and whispered back.


    "Lady, those people It was all recalled last night, saying it was According to the emperor''s orders. "


    "Leng Jun Ao?"


    "Yes. In addition, the maidservant also got a message. Last night, in addition to pomegranate, there were several eunuchs in the palace who were also missing. Originally, they were responsible for passing meals, but some people in the palace did see them coming. Later, they disappeared inexplicably. Like pomegranate, there were no people alive and no corpses dead. "


    "Well?"


    If pomegranate is the only one missing, it''s OK. Now there are several more. If there is no problem, who will believe it?


    Her eyelids twitched, and Zhao Wanxi immediately had a very bad feeling. She was waiting for the exit, and she looked at Joan with a little scruples.


    Seeing what she was thinking, Joan''s face was even dimmer. "Lady, is pomegranate More bad than good? "


    "According to the current situation..."


    It is.


    Such a big palace, but Leng is can''t find people, if only one also just, or a continuous number. It''s hard not to think about the bad side of this anomaly.


    Even Zhao Wanxi couldn''t relax. Just as they were talking, there was an echo outside the hall.


    "Madam, here comes Bai Jieyu. She is kneeling outside waiting for you to summon her."
