Chapter 214
The moonlight is bright and clear, and the ground is full of silver light.

In the middle of the night, everything is silent, inside and outside the imperial city, except for the imperial guards who are still patrolling non-stop, not a single breathing creature can be seen, the silvery moonlight is intertwined with human shadows, the sound of orderly footsteps, weapons rubbing against the metal of the armor The sound was very clear in this silent night, and it made people feel a strong sense of anxiety for no reason.

The disappearance of the high priest made the empress, in extreme anger, almost lose her mind and order to kill all the rebellious dragoon guards. In the end, the palace did not escape a bloody storm.However, the principal culprit escaped, and there was no direct evidence pointing to the person who conspired behind the scenes. Even though the empress knew who the chief culprit was, there was nothing she could do without conclusive evidence.

Up to this night, the guards of the princely palaces and princess palaces located at the foot of the imperial capital are still heavily guarded, and no one is allowed to step out of their respective mansions without the Queen's order.

Inside and outside the imperial city, there is an atmosphere of panic everywhere. Just standing on the street, you can deeply feel the extremely tense and oppressive atmosphere in the air.

The moonlight tonight is exceptionally bright, and the streets after the bustling curtain are covered in silver, every plant, tree, brick and tile, and even the notices posted on the walls to find the high priest are clearly visible, making everyone Xiaoxiao, who wanted to hide through the darkness, had nowhere to hide in this night, which was almost the same as the day.

One wave of countless Imperial Guards has not disappeared, another wave has appeared in front of them, patrolling alternately without interruption, forming a tight ground network on all the streets in the imperial city.

The net of heaven and earth——

However, there are bold people who don't believe in evil, and always enjoy challenges.

Like ghosts, two black shadows shuttled across the well-arranged roof ridges silently, as fast as lightning, as fast as shooting stars, and passed under the noses of tens of thousands of imperial guards completely defiantly, without leaving a trace.Not long after, it stopped on the ridge of vermilion rubble in a mansion.

Above the main gate of the mansion, there are three magnificent characters "Princess Mansion" hanging on it impressively.

This mansion is owned by the queen's younger sister, the only unmarried third princess, Situ Wanrou. It is an independent princess mansion that does not occupy the largest area but is absolutely luxurious.

At this time, the two people who were leisurely standing on the ridge overlooking the entire mansion structure indifferently, one of them was wearing a black shiny tight-fitting leather jacket and leather pants, with his arms around his chest, looking at the courtyard below with cold starry eyes, with a faint expression on his face. Very lazy smile.The other person only wore an ordinary black gown, which already outlined a tall, thin and perfect body. His expression had been calm and indifferent for several years, as if even if the sky fell apart, he couldn't teach him to be calm and unafraid to lift his eyelids— —

In the Princess Mansion, there are 240 guards, including 80 first-class guards who are responsible for guarding the main courtyard where the third princess lives alone every day, and 160 second-class guards who are responsible for protecting the entire Princess Mansion.The serving maids are divided into first, second and third ranks, a total of 120 people, only eight of them are able to serve the daily life personally, and the rest are in charge of serving tea, pouring water, doing laundry and cleaning.

Of course, these are only the configuration specifications of the Princess Mansion on the surface, and almost everyone with status in the imperial capital knows this.

As for some hidden in the dark and unknown... such as the dead guards, of course there are countless.

Situ Wanrou, the third princess who loves luxury, the mansion is lit almost every day and night, especially in the main courtyard where she lives, even when she is sleeping, there must be at least seven soft luminous pearls in the bedroom for lighting. .

These are all news from Qi Lang. In his words, it is that he has done too many bad things, and he is afraid that ghosts will knock on the door in the middle of the night.

The topographic map had already been memorized by heart, so Su Mo only glanced lazily, and he had a panoramic view of the topographical layout around him.Just like the streets outside, in the Princess Mansion, there are groups of guards patrolling back and forth, not allowing any unauthorized thieves to sneak in.

Of course, in recent days, without exception, the entire princess mansion has been surrounded by iron barrels without any gaps at twelve hours a day. Before the queen's decree to lift the ban was issued, the three princesses who were released from the priest's hall, It was like being put under house arrest in the mansion.

Therefore, the guards with these routine duties have already relaxed their vigilance a little invisibly.

Qi Lang's familiarity with the terrain of the Princess Mansion is almost more thorough than that of the Priest's Palace. The map he drew shows the specific structure of each building in detail, including the most secret underground secret room and the detailed hidden weapons in the secret room. Organ settings.

When going out tonight, Su Mo didn't bring Qi Lang with her, and Bi Yue was also left in the other courtyard. She and Xie Changting were the only two who quietly avoided the numerous forbidden troops outside, arrived at the Princess' Mansion, and easily avoided the numerous mansions. guards, all the way to the main courtyard where the third princess lived.

There is no nanny in the princess mansion, and all the maids who serve the princess are young maids, but in the past few days, all the servants in the princess mansion know that the princess is in a very bad mood, and her temper is getting more and more irritable day by day. Difficult to serve, often scolded and punished, everyone served tremblingly, almost wishing to disappear from the princess' eyes immediately.

"All to this princess, get out!"

As soon as her feet stepped on the magnificent vermilion glazed tile roof, a scolding sound of undisguised anger was clearly heard in her ears. Su Mo raised her eyebrows lazily, and looked at Xie Changting, feeling amused. mouth.

Not long after, a group of maids retreated from the yard in a file. The one who was carrying the basin, the one who was holding the clothes, the one who was serving the tea, everyone lowered their eyebrows and looked down, their faces were faintly pale and frightened, and even their footsteps were slow. Very light, not daring to make a sound.

After everyone disappeared from sight, Su Mo said with a faint smile: "Changting, guess, after this bluff, can we see a good show?"

In the main courtyard, which was brightly lit as if it were daytime, after all the serving maids were dismissed without leaving a single one, silence was restored.

Outside the main courtyard, the patrolling guards still kept their duties.

The moonlight is very bright tonight. Su Mo, who is dressed in black leather, looks so graceful and lazy under the moonlight. Her cold and enchanting face is like a goddess in the dark night. There is a careless and lazy smile on the corner of her mouth, free and easy, luxurious and comfortable. Self-satisfied, without the slightest nervousness of being afraid of revealing one's identity.

Xie Changting glanced at her indifferently, and raised his lips almost imperceptibly, feeling more and more that her expression at this time was almost the same as that of the master, no wonder the master was moved by the first glance.

Perhaps such a woman was born for her master... Otherwise, who else in this world can fall into the eyes of her master?And this woman, who can control her?
"Whether we can see a good show or not, we will know later."
