Out of the palace, Wu Zhengxiang came to an abandoned courtyard in the city, where Wu Rui was waiting. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Seeing him coming alone, Wu Rui stepped forward in silence to salute.

Wu Zhengxiang nodded slightly with a smile on his face and asked, "It's all dealt with?"

Wu Rui said in a deep voice: "Back to the master, the subordinates have eliminated all traces and will not leave any traces." ”

Wu Zhengxiang narrowed his eyes, hiding the dangerous aura in his starry eyes. From the day he learned that the crown prince wanted Xu Wanzhen's life, he was determined not to let him ascend to the throne. This is just the beginning.

The crown prince and the king of Qi, he originally had no position. It's just that this matter is quite good for King Qi. So, at the moment, should he be regarded as a Qi Wang Party? Thinking about this, Wu Zhengxiang felt that things had become interesting.

……

Such a big ugly matter, with the strong attitude of Emperor Qinglong, no one in the palace dared to mention it, and it was almost invisible.

But the rumors were irrepressible, and they spread in Beijing.

What is "the prince ** Su Xi Gongzi", what "Su Xi Gongzi has long been raised by the prince in another courtyard", and there are even outrageous rumors such as "Qin Youcheng dedicated his son to the prince in order to be promoted".

These and other versions have spread in the market. The people of Luoyang City are most interested in such powerful secrets.

What's more, the two of them, one is His Royal Highness the Prince, who is extremely noble, and the other is the famous Prince of Suxi in the capital, and the two people who seem to be unable to beat the eight poles are actually mixed together.

Such a peach-colored scandal doesn't know where it came out first. When people whisper, they all have a look of excitement, curiosity, and secrecy. Between people's ears and mouths, many details that make people blush and heartbeat are added, and the words are as if they have seen it in person.

It is said that such rumors should have been detected by the powerful and important ministers in Beijing as early as possible.

But the strange thing is that until the day before Empress Dowager Xiao's birthday, the powerful and important ministers seemed to be unaware.

It is reasonable to say that they all attracted attention to the birthday of Empress Dowager Xiao. However, there is no shortage of old and mature figures in the court, and Empress Dowager Xiao's birthday is every year, will it occupy all their attention?

It was as if there was a wall between them and the market, so that these rumors could not reach their ears, and they naturally did not notice any clues.

This wall was carefully built by Zhaoyang Gong who took the initiative to use all his hands, and even lost a few strands of hair when he was overthinking.

It was night, and several figures in black tights, avoiding the guards and soldiers who patrolled the night, haunted Luoyang City shrouded in night.

They did not steal or rob, and did not go to the mansions of high-ranking officials and magnates, but instead put a few bundled volumes of books into the palaces of the Imperial Historian, the Imperial Historian, the Imperial Historian, and the Imperial Historian.

All this fell into the eyes of Wu Zhengxiang who was lying on the roof.

Princess Zhaoyang is a good method! Even if I don't like her, I can't help but applaud her.

In this way, after the incident, King Qi's silence in the past few days also makes sense. It's not that they don't take advantage of the situation to pursue, but they are brewing a bigger momentum!

At this point, Wu Zhengxiang smiled slightly, and the snow white was particularly dazzling in the night.

The prince probably couldn't have imagined that when the dawn came, everything he knew would change dramatically!

……

In the same night, the candles in the Chu Palace's mansion had been extinguished one after another, except for the patrolling guards and the mother-in-law and doorman who guarded the door, all fell into a deep sleep.

At this time, the king of Chu, who should have been in the palace, appeared in an inconspicuous two-entry courtyard in the west of the city. And the one who was supposing in his arms was the son of Su Xi who was at the center of the rumors these days!

"This matter, I just wronged you!" King Chu's eyes were full of apologies.

Qin Shuxi's cherry-like lips opened lightly, and his eyes were full of love. He shook his head slightly, his voice was as beautiful as a yellow bird, and said, "Don't be wronged, I want to be willing." ”

"Fool, I took advantage of you in this matter!" King Chu's hand gently touched his lips, and there was infinite pity in his tone.

Qin Shuxi's body trembled slightly, looked up at the King of Chu, and said, "Let the prince use it, Su Xi is as sweet as a glutton." The prince saved me from Lei Ba, and my people and my heart are all the king's. Don't say it's a little use, even if it costs my life, Su Xi will never say anything. ”

The undisguised affection in his voice touched the heart of King Chu.

His such naïve trust made him a calculating heart, and he couldn't help but sink.

Obviously, he used him himself, and he didn't even tell him beforehand. In the past few days, the hot rumors in the market in Beijing, although they came from the handwriting of Princess Zhaoyang, he also acquiesced.

These not only stained Qin Shuxi's reputation, but also stained Qin Youcheng's face. When it dawns tomorrow, the matter will be known to everyone.

When the time comes, will Qin Youcheng still love this son who has disgraced him so much? Will there still be few people in Jingzhong who are eyeing him? Without his father's protection, how should he deal with himself in the mansion? Will he be dismantled by those evil wolves?

Qin Shuxi is not a three-year-old child, how can he not understand the power of this? Where does he get the confidence to trust himself like this?

The king of Chu felt sorry, leaned over and kissed his soft and fragrant lips, and escaped vague words between his lips and teeth: "Suxi, I'm sorry. ”

Qin Shuxi dropped a drop of crystal tears, but his body became softer and softer.

He said silently in his heart: "Lord Wang, I know your suffering, and I also know that you can't take refuge in me in order to avoid suspicion. So what? If it weren't for you, Su Xi would have died a few years ago. Now it is a great blessing to be able to steal a few years of life and have a lot of joy. If it is really unimaginable, Su Xi sacrificed this life, and he will also protect the innocence of this body. ”

Such a forbidden love, Qin Shuxi has been carefully buried in the bottom of his heart. Even to the King of Chu, he couldn't tell him. He felt that he was dirty, and that if he said it, it would stain his dignity.

For a while, it was turned into a red wave, a little joy, a little pain.

No one cut the candles, and the red candles under the window gradually went out, and only the wheezing sound of the night could be heard.

……

Prince's Mansion, front yard.

Wang Miaoyan screamed and woke up from the nightmare. Cold sweat trickled down her back, flowing over her wounds, and she gasped in pain.

Ignoring the pain, she stroked her throbbing chest and looked around in panic.

Her eyes gradually adjusted to the darkness around her, and she slowly calmed down from her panic. Fortunately, this is my own room, my own bed, and I am alone. Wang Miaoyan let out a long breath.

Hearing the sound of the room, Xiaolan held a candlestick in her hand and pushed open the door to enter.

"Miss, are you having nightmares again?"

Wang Miaoyan nodded, his breath was a little unsteady, and ordered, "Fetch me water." ”

Xiaolan put the candlestick on the table, answered it in her mouth, and after a while, she called a basin of hot water.
