Stunning Phoenix Emperor

Chapter 55

"Dark guard?" Su Hanxiao thought for a while.
"That's right." Mei Ruoshui nodded and continued, "The hidden guards under the control of Empress Feng, and the Xuanming Palace behind the Mei family."
"Xuanming Palace..." Su Hanxiao vaguely remembered seeing this name in a book.
"These two forces originally came from the rivers and lakes, and they were brought back into the palace by Emperor Tianfeng." Now that Mei Ruoshui had spoken out, she no longer hid anything, and explained before she could ask, "The origin of the prototype of the dark guard During the period of Emperor Dayong, he spent hundreds of years living in the rivers and lakes and achieved the Wu Nian Sword Sect. Until the time of Emperor Tianfeng, Murong Zi, the head of the Wu Nian Sword Sect at that time, led the people back to Dayong. Decades later, Murong After Zi passed away, the Wunian Sword Sect merged with the original hidden guards in the palace to form a new hidden guard, and the power was handed over by Emperor Tianfeng to her queen, Mu Qingchen."
"I remembered." Su Hanxiao suddenly said, "I remembered what Xuanming Palace is."
"500 years ago, the power of Emperor Mei Huanggui was taken over by the descendants of the Mei family." Mei Ruoshui said calmly, "These two powers have a history of more than a thousand years, and they are the last power to protect the royal family. personal."
Su Hanxiao couldn't help sighing, somewhat understanding.
This is the most important reason why the Mei family men have never had a queen in the palace for generations?However, on the contrary, no matter how the royal family fights, the Mei family will always be honored and favored, as stable as Mount Tai.
But... Empress Feng and the hidden guard?It seems that tomorrow's palace banquet cannot be taken seriously...

When the lanterns come on, the Fenghe Pavilion in the palace is brightly lit and resplendent.
Unmarried men of appropriate age in Beijing gathered here. The palace banquet held by Queen Feng was not as formal as usual, but tables and chairs were placed everywhere in the hall and garden. The tables were full of food and fruits. Anyone can use it, and the teenagers shuttle in twos and threes, talking and laughing in low voices. If you look closely, the garden is full of fragrant grasses.
Su Hanxiao was sitting in a tall pavilion not far away, just in time to have a panoramic view of the entire Fenghexuan. There was a gauze curtain hanging on the railing, but the people inside could not be seen below.
"Boring..." She curled her lips, lying on the table, she couldn't help but continued to sigh.
Originally, she had met Mei Ruoshui, Lan Chenyan, Bailiqing, Han Shumo, and she no longer had any prejudice against men in this world, but...Look at the following, really...Is there a big gathering of monsters tonight?
Finally, occasionally there are a few who can barely catch the eye, but they look timid and weak, like a frightened little rabbit. Such a man, even if he is placed in the shrine, he will be suffocated.
"You can choose from all the beauties in the capital, why do you still have this expression?" Mei Ruoshui's voice came from behind.
"Beauty? Where is it?" Su Hanxiao sighed, and slowly sat up straight.
Mei Ruoshui closed the door behind her back, walked over and put everything in her hand on the table.
"What is this?" Su Hanxiao looked at the pile of scrolls like a hill with a black line on his head. He really didn't know how he could carry so many things all by himself.
"Portraits and biographies of beauties!" Mei Ruoshui said angrily, "It is also the duty of the attendant to help you look at these, so hurry up and choose one!"
"No!" Su Hanxiao pushed the scroll without thinking.
Even if I still had the idea of ​​picking a cute one first and then talking about it later, after seeing the "beauties" below, I lost my appetite. Fortunately, the few around me are quite normal.
"How did I hear that you used to like the kind of pitiful little beauty with pear blossoms and rain?" Mei Ruoshui raised her eyebrows.
"I heard? Who did you hear it from?" Su Hanxiao felt chills.The original princess...isn't that weird in taste?Or is that just the normal taste in this world of empresses, and she's the weird one?But looking at the Queen of Phoenix is ​​also obviously very good.
"Jinse." Mei Ruoshui only uttered two words.
Su Hanxiao gritted her teeth, and secretly wrote down the name. It seemed that it was one of the teenagers sent by the Queen or Phoenix after being injured last time?Since she is so restless, she doesn't mind using other means to make him learn the lesson!
Donggong, there is no need for servants who gossip about the master's rights and wrongs.
Mei Ruoshui shrugged, and didn't care how the boy would be treated. Anyway, he didn't like the arrogant boy with eyes on the top of his head. It wouldn't be a bad thing if he didn't have to see him again.What's more, the people in the East Palace should also be rectified.
Suddenly, there was a faint sound of a piano in the garden, as if some young master had come up with a way to attract the attention of the empress.
Su Hanxiao couldn't help but roll her eyes, she was far behind Bailiqing's piano skills, yet she had the nerve to show it off!
"I know you don't like it, but..." Mei Ruoshui sighed softly, approached her, and said in a low voice, "Being born in the emperor's family, there are many things you can't do..."
"I can't help it?" Su Hanxiao sneered, "How can someone else decide my life!"
"What are you going to do?" Seeing her standing up all of a sudden, Mei Ruoshui was stunned.
"Go out for a while and solve the problem." Su Hanxiao put his arm around his waist, but the other hand clasped the back of his head, snatching a deep kiss, and then let go, before he had time to react. Opened the door and went out.
It took a while for Mei Ruoshui to come back to her senses. She blushed and looked at the half of the scroll on the ground, frowned, but looked at the lampstands on the four walls.
The woman said it would be resolved, so these unsightly things are gone... It doesn't seem to matter, right?
As soon as Su Hanxiao got out of the high pavilion, before he had walked a few steps, someone grabbed his right arm and dragged him into the dark bushes.Because she was too familiar with that breath, she followed it without any resistance.
The man didn't say a word, just grabbed her hand and went through a few bushes, and came to a osmanthus forest, which was some distance away from the main venue of Fenghexuan, and the sound of silk and bamboo could be faintly heard, but there was nothing nearby. human footprint.
