first concubine

Chapter 1149 Shadow in the middle of the night.

"Really, why does this small Suzaku Gate need two lines of defense? Aren't we all unnecessary?"

One of the guards couldn't help complaining, he was so cold that he couldn't hold back his words: "It's good that there are so many guards outside, the emperor just doesn't want us to have a good time, so he still wants to send us here."

It is true that there are two guards at the Vermilion Bird Gate, because Zhao Hanqi sent additional defenses after he entered the palace to assassinate.

After all, the emperor was also afraid of death, so he had to guard against it.

The other person heard the man speak so freely, so he immediately glared at him and said, "If you don't shut up, your end will be the same as that of the man above."

The man looked up at the corpse hanging above the gate tower, and immediately closed his mouth.

Qiu Yinong has been standing behind them for a long time, and what they said has been lingering in her ears. She opened her eyes and looked at the corpse hanging on the top of the tower. In the snowflakes flying, she could vaguely see the blood on the man's body. The dyed white prison clothes, the body is dry, and the white hair is loose, tied around the neck and hung on it.

Because of the strong wind, his body was gently swayed by the wind, infinitely desolate.

The wind and snow whistled in her ears, and the man's body was constantly swinging on the top of the tower. She stood below, weeping, and fell on Yaoxi's shoulders. In the end, Yaoxi helped her back and waited for her to rest.

Of course, Yaoxi never dared to go back to rest, for fear of waking up in the middle of the night in autumn, she would have some orders, so she kept waiting in the hall.

At the beginning, she was embroidering with an embroidery stand, and she didn't know how long she was going to get, she became a little drowsy, and fell asleep without propping herself up on the chair.

She didn't know how long it took before she heard a creaking sound, similar to the sound of a door being opened. She opened her eyes in a daze, as if she saw the door open, and a black figure came from the doorway. Go out through the opened gap.

Then disappeared into the deep night.

She woke up from the fright, went to the inner room to check on Qiu Yinong, but found that the room was empty, and the white gauze clothes Qiu Yinong had replaced were casually thrown on the bed~, obviously because she was in a hurry to get out, I didn't have time to clean up.

Yaoxi was dumbfounded all of a sudden.

In the middle of the night, where does Qiu Yinong want to go?

Suddenly thinking that there was something wrong with Qiu Yinong's mood in the evening, she understood it all at once, and hurried to Ruyu and Qingqing's room to wake them up, they were sleeping in a daze, Hearing Yaoxi's words, he woke up with fright.

"What, you said that the fourth girl went to Suzaku Gate to snatch the body of Director Li?" Ruyu sat up from the bed in fright, the drowsiness just now was dispelled by Yaoxi's words, and now only shock and panic.

Yaoxi nodded and said: "Just now, I seemed to see the fourth girl go out in a daze, wearing a night clothes, she must have gone to Suzaku Gate to snatch the body of Director Li."

"Ah, what should I do? Although there are not many guards at the Suzaku Gate, it is still very difficult to remove a corpse. Isn't the fourth girl going to die?" Qingqing clenched her hands tightly in fright. intertwined together.

Among them, only Ruyu knows a little kung fu, but Qiu Yinong never allows her to use it.
