A Promotion Guide in the Harem - C167

The banquet began with the empress dowager and the emperor sitting high above, Princess Changle at the same table as Dongfang Haotian, Leng Qiyue to the left, and Imperial Consort Rong to the right, followed by her concubines and ministers.

Leng Qiyue was not in the mood to watch music and dancing. Both consort Rong and consort butterfly were full of worries. It was quite quiet lately, as if she didn’t want anything to happen to them.

After three rounds of drinking, Lin Fei actually took her leave first. Leng Qiyue’s heart tensed up. Could it be that she was going to find Xifei? She winked at Shun Zi, who was waiting for her in the distance. Shun Shun Zi was very smart, so he immediately took notice of her thoughts. He nodded and quietly left the room.

When Little Shun Zi came back, it was already two hours later. His expression was not good as he looked anxiously at Leng Qiyue.

Leng Qiyue’s heart sank. Could something have happened? She stood up and said, “Your Majesty, chenqie is a little tired. Can you take your leave first?”

Dongfang Haotian nodded and said: “My beloved concubine is pregnant. Go back and rest.”

Leng Qiyue rose to leave, but as soon as she left the Music Temple, Little Shun Zi said, “Esteemed Empress, I’ve found the whereabouts of Imperial Concubine. Esteemed wangfei is currently torturing her confession!”

Leng Qiyue angrily snorted. “Lin Fei’s offer is too big, isn’t it with the empress dowager’s backing? Quick, take me there. This time, if I catch her, I will definitely kick her out. ”

Little Shun Zi said anxiously, “Esteemed Empress, you should take the Wandering Dragon Jade and leave the palace. The gatekeepers don’t dare to stop them. If you do, I’m afraid they will make things difficult for you.”

“Hmph, I am a imperial concubine. Who would dare to stop me?” Leng Qiyue said unwillingly.

Little Shun Zi helplessly said, “It is because you are a imperial concubine that they would stop you. After all, it is already late. If the Empress were to leave the palace, she would probably need to follow a group of imperial bodyguards. Right now, all of the guards at the palace gates are esteemed imperial concubine’s men. We have no choice but to be on guard! ”

Leng Qiyue nodded and asked, “Have you seen Protector Yan?”

“In reply to the Empress, your servant has not seen you.” Shun Zi replied.

Leng Qiyue thought about it for a moment. The Yan guard was a secret guard, it was impossible for him to appear openly. It was normal for Little Shun Zi to not be able to see him.

When they arrived at the entrance of the palace, Leng Qi and the moon revealed their identities and wanted to leave the palace. As expected, the guards blocked them with all sorts of reasons, so she had to take out the Wandering Dragon Jade Pendant to successfully leave the palace.

When he left the palace, he saw Yan Su rushing back. He said anxiously, “Esteemed wangfei, esteemed wangfei is in danger. Your servant is too weak to save her.”

“Then what should we do? Can’t the two of us add up? ” Leng Qiyue was truly anxious.

Yan Su shook his head. “That won’t do. Empress, you should ask the Emperor to send out the troops.”

Leng Qiyue shook her head. “That won’t do. His Majesty still hasn’t dismissed the banquet. If we go and beg His Majesty, we’ll definitely alert the enemy.”

“Empress Dowager means the empress dowager?” Yan Su had guessed it right.

Leng Qiyue said, “How about this? You go and find Bai Lan. He is the commander of the Imperial Guards. I’ll go with Little Shun Zi to look for Xifei.”

Yan Su thought for a while and said, “Empress, you must not act rashly. Wait for this servant to come before you do anything.”

Leng Qiyue nodded and pulled Little Chun onto the horse that Yan Su had come back on. Yan Su, on the other hand, went to the palace to seek help.

The streets were quiet and deserted, only the sounds of the horses’ hooves could be heard. They stopped in front of a abandoned house. The door to the house was tightly shut, and there was no one guarding it.

“Are they here?” Leng Qiyue asked.

Little Shun Zi shook his head and said, “No, they are at the abandoned house behind this mansion. If I were to ride my horse directly over there, I would be discovered, and this servant will lead the Empress to the secret passage. ”

Leng Qiyue nodded and got off her horse to follow Little Shun Zi over the wall. Only then did she realize that Little Shun Zi was also a practitioner, and she couldn’t help but suspect that Little Shun Zi had sent someone from Dongfang Haotian.

The walls were overgrown with weeds, and the collapsed buildings had a strange black hue. It was as if there was a huge fire going on inside.

“Little Shun Zi, what is this place?” Leng Qiyue asked.

Little Shun Zi said, “To reply Empress, this is the former residence of the Jin family. A large torch burned all the members of the Jin family to death, leaving only the empress dowager here.”

“Jin family’s old home?” Leng Qiyue suddenly shivered. This big fire had taken more than two hundred lives.

“Empress, this way.” Little Shun Zi called to her from a crack in the wall.

Leng Qiyue slipped through a crack and entered another abandoned house. This place was much better than the Jin family’s old residence. The pavilion and pavilion were all available, but why was it abandoned?

Little Shun Zi said, “Niangniang, although the Jin family wasn’t implicated after the fire, the rumors were that they always heard the mournful shrieks in the middle of the night, and they were so scared that they moved away. After that, the house changed hands a few times, but it never grew and eventually became abandoned. ”

Leng Qiyue felt goosebumps all over her back. Logically speaking, there were two demons right beside her. They shouldn’t be afraid of ghosts, but that feeling in her heart was as uncomfortable as if she was looking at an extremely ugly insect.

“Empress, we cannot go over. If we go any closer, we will be discovered.” Little Shun Zi pulled Leng Qiyue and hid behind a tree. In front of them was a courtyard with a guard standing by the door. A light was lit inside, and three figures were projected onto the window.

Leng Qiyue frowned and said, “I can’t see anything from here!”

Little Shun Zi looked around and said, “Empress, let’s go to the tree over there.”

The two of them sneaked over and climbed up a tree. The window in their direction was in a terrible state, so they could see what was going on inside the house.

There were three people standing in the room, Lin Fei, Qing Xi, and a eunuch.

“Where’s my wife?” As soon as Leng Qiyue finished her words, Qing Xi bent down to look for something on the ground.

He faintly heard the joyous words, “Empress, she fainted.”

Lin Fei coldly snorted, “Splash her awake for me.”

Qing Xi took the kettle and splashed it on the ground. With a soft moan, she said weakly, “I really don’t know.”

Lin Fei raised her foot and kicked him a few times. “Since you don’t know, then there’s no use in keeping her. Someone, this girl will reward her for you to play with.”

A few eunuchs walked in from outside. Although the eunuchs were not humane, they had endless methods of torturing others. The panicking Imperial Consort moved backwards. Leng Qiyue was finally able to see her. She was tied up like a bundle and her hair was disheveled in an extremely sorry state.

Leng Qiyue was so anxious that she wanted to jump down the tree. Little Shun Zi hastily pulled her down and said, “Empress, don’t worry. Let’s wait for Commander Bai and the Yan guard.”

Leng Qiyue coldly looked at Little Shun Zi and said, “Your Qing Gong is pretty good. Don’t tell me that even if we work together, we won’t be able to save Xifei?”

Little Shun Zi pointed at the grass in the dark and said, “Empress, this servant can only use my lightness skill. Look at those places, there are hidden arrows.”

Leng Qiyue looked around and indeed saw the faint reflection of metal. Could it be that Lin Fei was sure that she would follow them, so she arranged for the hidden arrows to be delivered to her doorstep?

The eunuchs in the room started to tug at Fei Fei’s clothes and even started to touch her body. She was crying and trying to dodge, but couldn’t escape from the clutches of the Demon Claw. Leng Qiyue couldn’t bear it any longer, so she steeled her heart and jumped down from the tree … She couldn’t wait any longer!
