After Zhu Chengxuan left the imperial study, he did not go back directly to his Chengqian Palace, but went to Yikun Palace in secret.

However, the concubine was not there.

He was a little surprised, but in order to see Nanyan and tell her something, he still waited here, fortunately, after a while, Nanyan came back from outside.

However, her face was a little paler than when she was in the imperial study before.

Seeing her like this, Zhu Chengxuan was also startled, and hurriedly stepped forward: "Guifei Niangniang, what's wrong with you?" ”

Aunt Tongyun and the others also hurriedly stepped forward to help her, Nianqiu glanced behind her, and said in surprise: "Niangniang, when you got up early and went out, didn't you take Sister Xiaoyu with you?" Why didn't she accompany her mother? ”

At the mention of Xiaoyu, Nanyan's face became even more ugly.

It was Zhu Chengxuan who said to them: "Xiaoyu was sent to prison by his father, you - don't ask about this matter for the time being." ”

Hearing this, Aunt Tongyun and Nian Qiu were both startled.

"How so?!"

"Sister Xiaoyu, she-"

Nanyan waved his hand with a pale face and said, "This palace, this palace knows what to do. You, you go down first, and stay alone with Your Highness for a while. ”

“…… Be. ”

They could only retreat with worries on their faces.

When they were all gone, Zhu Chengxuan turned around to look at Nanyan's pale face, and said softly: "The noble concubine's face is pale, as if she has a disease. ”

“……”

Nanyan knew that although he was young, he had excellent medical skills, and he was unwell, so he was afraid that he would be able to see through it at a glance.

But now is not the time to worry about this.

She said lightly: "It's okay to be a little thing. ”

After speaking, he said to Zhu Chengxuan: "Just now, thank you, Your Highness." ”

"This king thinks that there is no need to say that word between me and the concubine."

“……”

Looking at Zhu Chengxuan's serious eyes, Nanyan smiled bitterly.

Of course she knew that Zhu Chengxuan was referring to the last time he was in prison, and how he helped him.

Things in the world are sometimes full of magic.

Zhu Chengxuan asked again: "By the way, where did the concubine Niangniang go just now?" It's still raining outside. ”

Nanyan arrived: "The main palace went to Chonghua Palace. ”

"Chonghua Palace?"

Zhu Chengxuan looked at him in surprise, as if he couldn't believe it: "The concubine is going-"

"Bengong went to Concubine Kang for help?"

"She?!"

Zhu Chengxuan is even more strange, you must know that it is very clear inside and outside the palace that the concubine and Concubine Kang are incompatible, how could the concubine think of going to Concubine Kang for help?

Looking at his surprised expression, Nanyan smiled bitterly again.

In fact, when I walked into Chonghua Palace just now, the people inside also had such expressions.

Even, when she made a request to Concubine Kang, she looked at herself with the eyes of a madman.

What she said was also taken crazy by her.

Nanyan could only say: "Concubine Kang, don't forget, when the Emperor wanted to punish you, who stopped this matter. ”

In general, there is no hope for mercy.

If you have shown kindness to others, if you want to say it so clearly and clearly, so that people can repay you, you will inevitably fall behind. But for the sake of Ran Xiaoyu, don't say that you are inferior, it is a shame, and you admit it.

And hearing her words, Concubine Kang's face became even more ugly.

Of course, she didn't forget that when Feng Shu provoked in front of Zhu Feng and asked Zhu Feng to punish herself, it was Si Nanyan who took out the concubine's money and lost her temper in front of Feng Shu, so that Zhu Feng forgot to punish herself.

In this way, she did help herself.

Wu Yun hesitated for a long time before he said coldly: "This time, I'm not helping you, I just don't want that slut to be too proud." ”

Nanyan said: "Then, I won't thank you either." ”

After speaking, he left Chonghua Palace.

Zhu Chengxuan asked her, "What did the concubine ask her to help do?" ”

Nanyan said: "Xiaoyu was put in prison by the emperor, and the palace wants to save it, but I'm afraid it will be difficult to save it for a while, so I can only find a way to stabilize the people in the prison first." Concubine Kang, in these aspects, has her means. ”

"Oh......"

Zhu Chengxuan nodded understandingly.

Indeed, I suffered so much in prison before, wasn't it Concubine Kang's handiwork?

He was just a little surprised-

"I didn't expect that the concubine would go to her."

Nanyan sighed and said, "If it were normal, this palace would definitely not go to her. ”

“……”

"But, for the sake of Xiaoyu—"

“……”

"This palace now knows that in this harem, there are no permanent friends and enemies, only temporary alliances of interests. As long as Xiaoyu can be saved, this palace can do anything. ”

Zhu Chengxuan looked at her, and after a while, he said softly: "Guifei Niangniang said that there are no eternal friends, but Niangniang can pay for Sister Xiaoyu like this, isn't this the best counterexample?" ”

“……”

Hearing his words, Nanyan smiled bitterly again.

Looking at Zhu Chengxuan again, there was a trace of relief on his tired and tired face.

This child is much more mature than in the past.

Probably, the previous incident made him grow up a lot.

At this time, Zhu Chengxuan said to her very seriously: "By the way, Guifei Niangniang, this king is coming this time, in fact, there is something important to tell you." ”

"Oh? What's up? ”

"Father's recent attitude towards Niangniang is not the same as before?"

“……”

Nanyan glanced at him.

This, it seems, is no longer necessary.

The people of the entire harem felt it.

But, if a man doesn't love anymore, maybe that's it.

Once, because of himself, he had a blue eye for Ran Xiaoyu, but now, he can also beat Ran Xiaoyu into the prison mercilessly.

Nanyan said bitterly: "This ...... Your Highness will leave it alone. ”

Zhu Chengxuan looked at her and said seriously: "This matter, this king can't ignore it." ”

“……”

Hearing his serious, even a somewhat heavy tone, Nan Yan was stunned for a moment and looked up at him: "What do you mean?" ”

Zhu Chengxuan said: "I found that there is a strange smell on my father's body, or in other words, on the body of Concubine Li. ”

"What does it smell like?"

"I can't say it right now, but based on how I feel about the drug, it seems to be a distracting scent."

"What?!"

Nanyan's eyes widened in astonishment and looked at him: "Your Highness, you-didn't you make a mistake?" ”

"Nope."

Zhu Chengxuan said with certainty: "When I went to Yangxing Zhai yesterday, I smelled that strange smell. Although it is faint and may be difficult for ordinary people to notice, I still perceive it. ”

“……”

Nanyan was stunned.

A distracting smell?

Could it be that —
