Wishful Things

"You don't need to ask too much, knowing too much is not good for you..." Yue Pei stared at Zhao Guo closely, and said, "You just need to send the things to Yongfu Palace..."

Zhao Guo looked at the thing that was clutched in that dirty hand, although he had a lot of doubts in his heart, he couldn't help being tempted.

Sending something into the palace is not a difficult task for him now.

The police guard is the emperor's man, and he often has the opportunity to go in and out of the palace, especially the new commander who values ​​him a little bit...

There is nothing too taboo on this piece of cloth, even if it is sent to Yongfu Palace by others, there is no need to worry about any mistakes.

What's more, it's Concubine Rong!

Who is Concubine Rong?

Two years ago, he might have had to weigh how feasible it was, but now Concubine Rong is the most favored one in the palace since she gave birth to the little prince!

All the Rong family went to heaven because of this!

Even if the little prince is taken into captivity, the court will definitely try to rescue him, especially when there is no other prince in the palace except the prince, and the prince shows that he will not live for a few days——

Concubine Rong's current status is still there.

Moreover, Empress Wu fled out of Beijing privately, and the sixth palace has no owner, so everything must be under the control of Concubine Rong...

If you want to send a letter, there shouldn't be any obstacles...

The most important thing is... five hundred taels!

Compared with the two hundred thousand taels he had heard about Xia Tingzhen's private collection just now, it was nothing worth mentioning, but compared to the unattainable two hundred thousand taels, the five hundred taels was the most practical for him.

Five hundred taels...

First take it to repay the one hundred and thirty taels of gambling debt, play in the casino for half a day, and then go to Zuixianglou to ask for two jugs of good wine, and ask Cuiyan and Zhu Liu to serve them together...

Already figured out how to spend it!

The last sliver of rationality left made him ask in doubt: "Do you really think that with this thing alone, Concubine Rong will be willing to rescue you?"

His incomplete understanding of the situation made him not afraid that the letter would not be delivered to Concubine Rong. The only thing he worried about now was whether this move would not only be useless, but also annoy Concubine Rong, which would bring him another disaster——

"She doesn't dare not help..." A sly smile flashed across Yue Pei's face: "If I'm not sure, I wouldn't dare to ask you to deliver the letter, and bet this last chance on her!"

This sentence was like the last effort to completely push Zhao Guo who was staggering.

It's just a piece of rags anyway!

He didn't know anything beside him, even if Concubine Rong wanted to silence him, it wouldn't be his turn!

——Under the desire for money, a little luck was forced in his mind to convince himself.

With a heartbroken heart, he took the ball of sackcloth and stuffed it into his bosom.

Maybe in the future, the five hundred taels of silver will be spent in the gambling house, and Zhao Guo will be able to prosper from this!

...

After he got the things, he was not in a hurry for the next thing.

Impatience is easy to make mistakes, such things just need to wait for the time with peace of mind.

The time is coming soon.

Four days later, Emperor Qingming summoned Wang Tong, the commander of the security guards, into the palace, and he was able to accompany him.

After reporting all the recent events, the emperor on the sickbed left Wang Tong alone to explain the important matters, and they all retreated outside the hall to wait.

Zhao Guo left the Hall of Mental Cultivation with the excuse of wanting to relieve himself.

Although the police guards have always been free to come and go in the ban, relying on the fact that they only obey the emperor's orders and have the right to intervene in everything, but it is absolutely impossible to enter the harem directly.

As for secretly trying to sneak into the harem, it is also impractical, and once discovered, the consequences will be disastrous.

Therefore, he still needs to borrow the hands of others.

"stop."

In the garden behind the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Zhao Guo stepped into a vermilion corridor and called to a small eunuch in front of him who was walking past here with his head bowed.

Hearing the sound, the little inner supervisor stopped to look over, saw that he was wearing the green robe of the police guard Baihu, he did not dare to neglect at all, stepped forward to salute, and said timidly: "I don't know what Master Baihu has to say..."

"Which palace are you from? What are you doing here?" Zhao Guo glanced at the inner eunuch uniform on his body, which was the sample of the last second-class inner eunuch in the palace.

"Returning to my lord, this slave is in the concubine Rong's concubine's courtyard. I was told by her to come to the Hall of Mental Cultivation and ask His Majesty if the dragon's body has improved..."

Concubine Rong?

Have not heard.

But there is no prince in the palace and she is only a concubine, so she is obviously not an important figure.

That would be easier.

It's normal for concubines to pass messages between concubines in the harem, and it's not easy to attract attention...

And with the identity of the little eunuch, it is undoubtedly easy to buy.

Zhao Guo made up his mind, fearing that he might delay the time to go back, if he offends the commander, he didn't delay: "...I don't know little eunuch, would you like to run for me?"

While speaking, a silver coin was handed to the little inner eunuch.

The little eunuch's eyes brightened slightly, and he said in a low voice: "If you have any orders, just tell me..."

Concubine Rong doesn't have much sense of presence in the palace, and she is too frugal, so the lives of those below are very difficult.

Such an ingot of silver, he could easily never see it on weekdays!

Seeing his expression, Zhao Guo became more and more sure that he had found the right person. After seeing that there was no one around, he took the thing out of his pocket and confessed in a low voice: "Send this thing to Yongfu Palace...after seeing the thing, There must be an answer from Yongfu Palace, and I will enter the palace again tomorrow afternoon, then you only need to give me the response from Yongfu Palace, and the benefits will definitely be yours..."

Looking at the soft object wrapped in blue cloth stuffed into his hand together with the silver, the little inner supervisor was stunned.

where?

Forever... Yongfu Palace?

Yongfu Palace seems a bit uneasy recently...

Although his master doesn't have much sense of presence, his biggest hobby is to close the door, eat melon seeds, watch operas and inquire about gossip——

Therefore, the people below are more or less affected by what they see...

Instead, the instinct of not wanting to cause trouble told him - forget it on weekdays, it's not a big deal for these little people with no names to run errands and deliver something, who can't make some extra money? But at such a critical moment, this thing cannot be delivered!

Can……

But this silver feels like old friends at first sight...

He saw it as before, and he expected Yin Zi to see him as he should.

It's really unbearable to push it out like this.

"Have you written it all down?" Zhao Guo asked.

The little eunuch nodded.

The words are not too complicated, just remember...

"Remember to play it by ear, don't let people outside Yongfu Palace find out." Zhao Guo confessed again.

The little eunuch nodded again: "I understand..."

He took all the money, so at least he had to behave to reassure the gold master.

Zhao Guo didn't know what happened to Yongfu Palace, so naturally he didn't think it was such a tricky job, so he confessed it, he didn't stay for long, and after asking the little eunuch's name, he turned back to the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

The little inner supervisor stood there for a while, then turned and left.

But what you are walking on is not the road to Yongfu Palace——

He found a confidant eunuch under Li Ji, and made a frightened look: "...the lord gave this thing to the slave and left, but the slave opened it and saw that it was covered with blood! I'm sorry, I was afraid that I would bump into the imperial concubine, so I didn't dare to send it off as promised...Eunuch Zhang, how do you deal with this..."

This eunuch surnamed Zhang had once received the favor of their concubine Rong, and he was quite reliable, so after much deliberation, he finally found him.

He didn't want to take the risk, but he didn't have the courage and determination to refuse on the spot...

Although he left a nonsense pseudonym, but in order not to be accounted for afterwards, he can only explain the situation first and ask for asylum.

"Are you the one who entered the palace today? What is your age?" The eunuch was shocked when he heard this, but his face remained silent.

"Aged around thirty, tall and thin, with a mole here, and a thin voice..." The little eunuch described it, and said, "That's the lord of the police guard, I really don't dare to refuse... ..."

Eunuch Zhang nodded slightly: "I know about this matter, I will handle this matter, you can go back first. Remember, don't leave Yu Guixuan easily these few days, so as not to cause trouble for the concubine Rong."

"Yes!" The little inner supervisor quickly agreed, thanked him again and again, and left with the money in his pocket - the money he earned was the money he earned from dangerous probing on the edge of the knife!

Eunuch Zhang looked at the two torn blood cloths, his eyes repeated.

Others don't know what happened to Yongfu Palace, how can he not know that he follows Li Ji all day long!

But why are you still involved with the police? !

Recently, the emperor has been angered by Concubine Rong, and it may not necessarily be a bad thing to have such a new discovery today...

In any case, first report to Ming Jigong and then...

The things were quickly handed over to Li Ji.

Li Ji walked out from the outer hall, the eunuch beside him looked at the person in the corridor, and said in a low voice: "Grand Ji, it should be that person..."

Zhao Guo, who just came back not long ago, stood with several other police guards, as if he had never left.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, he glanced subconsciously.

Seeing that it was Li Ji, the eunuch with palm prints, he lowered his eyes respectfully.

However, from the corner of the eye, he saw the other party walking in his direction.

Seeing the pair of cloud shoes stop in front of him, Zhao Guo suddenly became uneasy.

can't...

No, it's impossible.

That is not elsewhere, but Yongfu Palace!

Where is Yongfu Palace, and who is Concubine Rong?

He comforted himself in his heart to keep calm.

"What's your surname?" Li Ji asked.

Zhao Guo raised his head slightly, met those bright and introverted eyes for a moment, he was sure that the other person was asking him, his heart sank suddenly, and he replied with some trepidation: "Return to Ji Gong, my surname is Zhao."

"Zhao Baihu." Li Ji nodded slightly, then said: "Take it—"

The two servants immediately stepped forward, one left and one right, and detained him.

Zhao Guo was shocked.

The incident happened so suddenly, and several police guards beside him were also taken aback.

But for a while no one dared to speak.

Although they are used to running rampant, this is the palace, and the other party is the eunuch with palm prints under one person, and their commanders will respectfully call him Ji Gong when they see it!

At this time, Wang Tong just walked out from the inner hall.

Most of the other people are promoted, with red faces and high spirits. He was fine, his face was yellow and waxy, and there were spots of red—his eyes were red from the heat.

In the past, he had a lot of disagreements with Han Yan secretly, thinking that the other party's ability was mediocre, and he couldn't bear the responsibility.

But now it's different!

To be able to stay in this position for so long, he respects the other party as a character!

The emperor is so fucking difficult!

It's so difficult that he has no extra thoughts to fight for power now!

Not to mention that His Majesty the emperor is still very irritable even in his sick body, and he would vent his anger on others at every turn. Just listening to the errands that were ordered to him today, is that something a human can do?

Yesterday he was ordered to find out the lair of the Purple Star Sect within three days, and bring back the head of its leader...

At that time, he still thought - if he can think so, why not just order him to assassinate Duke Zhen!

That was an example that he thought was impossible, to highlight his helplessness, the emperor's whimsical...

But today, it came true!

The emperor really ordered him to secretly try to lead people into Linyuan City, rescue the little prince, and kill Zhen Guogong...

Daqing's survival seemed to be on his shoulders all of a sudden!

At that moment, he suddenly envied Han Yan who was lying in the coffin at this moment.

It has to be said that the other party's death was quite prescient.

Wang Tong felt that this road to high promotion made him have a dark future, and when he was thinking about what to do next, he saw Zhao Guo being escorted by Li Ji's men as soon as he stepped out of the palace gate. The situation of going down——

"Ji Gong...what's the meaning of this!" Wang Tong hurried forward.

"Commander Wang came just in time." Li Ji's voice was very low, and he glanced at Zhao Guo: "This Zhao Baihu just secretly bought a small eunuch, and wants to send this thing to Yongfu Palace to be handed over to Concubine Rong Gui ...Our family is about to take people down to ask why this happened."

Only then did Wang Tong see the bloody cloth held in the hand of the eunuch next to Li Ji.

— Concubine Rong? !

Although he had just taken over the police department not long ago, as the commander, he knew more or less the current situation of this imperial concubine...

It is said that he committed a serious crime of regicide, but he is still under trial in secret...!

This Zhao Guo, what did he send to Yongfu Palace at such a critical moment!

"No... none of my subordinates!" Zhao Guo shook his head in panic and denied it.

"No?" Eunuch Zhang sneered, and looked at the others: "Did this person leave alone just now?"

Those people hesitated to speak again and again, looking secretly at Wang Tong.

Wang Tong's face turned cold: "Say!"

A group of idiots are staring at him at this moment, and what they don't know is his plan!

One of them hurriedly said: "I said earlier that I was going to relieve myself, but I made an appointment for a quarter of an hour before returning..."

Wang Tong looked at Zhao Guo sternly.

Zhao Guo was covered in cold sweat.

How could this be so? !

He just asked someone to quietly send something to Yongfu Palace. If we really want to talk about it, this kind of thing is not a rare thing in the palace!

What's more, it was Yongfu Palace!

Calculating the time, the little inner eunuch must have not had time to send the things over...

But knowing that it was something sent to Yongfu Palace, how dare Li Ji stop it like this? Ordinarily, he should turn a blind eye and close his eyes... Isn't this going to openly oppose Yongfu Palace now? !

It was precisely because he firmly believed in Concubine Rong's status that no one would dare to offend in the palace that he dared to easily take over this matter!

At this moment, under such a situation, Zhao Guo had vaguely realized that there must be something wrong, but it was obviously too late.

Thinking of the worst outcome, his head was buzzing, and his eyes went black for a while.

"Bastard!" Wang Tong was furious: "How dare you deny it! Could it be that Ji Gong will wrong you!"

"...it's...it's Yuepei!" Knowing that it's useless to deny it to death, it's better to confess that there is still a chance of life, Zhao Guo tremblingly said: "It's him...he asked me to send this thing to Yongfu Palace, I don't know the rest!"

Goodnight everybody.
