Chapter 406: The Heart of Conspiracy
A man flashed in through the open courtyard door.
The man was dressed in a lilac dress, like a peony blooming in the night, and there was only a little girl ring beside her, holding a lantern in her hand, she waved her hand, and the little girl retreated to the door.
The seventh princess looked at her sideways, waved her hand impatiently, and the seventh princess's maid also withdrew.
Rong Xi beckoned, and Leng Fifteen stepped forward and leaned over, "Go and see, who can secretly patrol over there." ”
"Yes." Leng Fifteen got up and left, and the black clothes quickly melted into the night, as light as a swallow.
Rong Xi whispered, "It's too far away to hear what they're saying." ”
Princess Ying's breathing was tight, but she still nodded, her eyes burned, staring at the woman in the courtyard, and then at the indifferent look on Rong Xi's face, she whispered: "Third Imperial Sister-in-law...... Not angry? ”
Rong Xi immediately understood what she meant, and then smiled and said, "What do I have to be angry about?" She was never with me in the same mind, even ...... They still want to kill me and then hurry up. ”
Princess Ying lowered her eyelids and looked at the delicate woman in the courtyard, but there was a faint look of resentment on her face, cold as a poisonous snake.
Rong Qiu.
Soon, Leng Fifteen came back and shook his head lightly at Rong Xi, Rong Xi chuckled and said, "Let's go, let's listen together." ”
After saying that, his body flashed lightly, and Leng Fifteen and Leng Fifteen then helped Princess Ying to follow all the way.
The advantage of this villa is that there are towering trees everywhere, and the dense shadows of the trees seem to be able to cover a qiē, Rong Xi and Princess Ying are in this shadow, and they really see every look on the faces of the Seventh Princess and Rong Qiu.
The seventh princess sat on the swing and did not come down, her toes touched the ground, and she swayed gently, and the tassels on the red gold hairpin on her head also swung on the black hair with that frequency.
"Come to Hongu, what's the matter?" The Seventh Princess did not look at Rong Qiu, but looked at her toes, she was wearing a pair of red embroidered shoes, on which were delicate embroidered patterns of colored threads, it was said that the best embroiderers of the Ministry of Industry and the Lady embroidered for three days before the upper was made.
The tip of the shoe is embellished with a good South Pearl, although it is not as precious as the East Pearl, but it is round and huge, and it is extraordinarily delicate on the tip of the shoe.
Rong Qiu lowered her eyes, and her gaze swept over the tips of her shoes - she also had such a pair of shoes, although they were not as delicate as the Seventh Princess's, but they could be regarded as the best products.
She still remembers that when Zhang Yang said that he wanted to take her away, her eyes fell on the shoes on her feet, and she thought that Zhang Yang was extremely poor all his life, and she was afraid that he would not be able to earn money for this pair of shoes.
"Huh?" The Seventh Princess couldn't wait for her answer and looked up at her.
Rong Qiu immediately raised her head, collected her thoughts, and cleaned up those past events from her mind, she smiled lightly, and saluted the seventh princess: "The concubine has seen the princess. ”
"Alright, get up." The seventh princess turned her gaze away again and said lightly.
"The princess's shoes are really beautiful, if the concubine is not mistaken, the upper of these shoes is the cloud brocade of Su Cheng's tribute? I heard that this brocade is very well woven, and only a dozen horses are produced a year, not to mention embroidering this exquisite flower and the best Nanzhu. Rong Qiu's tone was full of admiration, and his eyes flashed with envy.
"You know the goods," the seventh princess curled her lips slightly, and smiled, her toes were raised a little, the hem of her skirt slid down, and her shoes were all exposed, which was really exquisite.
"This is the time of the eighteenth birthday of the palace, and the father sent someone to let people start preparing a month in advance, which is naturally precious," the seventh princess leaned her head on the hand holding the swing rope, and her tone was long.
Rong Xi didn't see anything good about the shoes, it was nothing more than that the colors were brighter, and there were more decorations on them, she suddenly remembered that when she was in modern times, she still liked to wear some classic black high heels, and she wore sneakers when she was mountaineering.
She felt that the shoes on the feet of the seventh princess were not as beautiful as the black brocade boots on Leng Yixiu's feet, she tilted her head slightly, and saw that the eyes of the British princess were also full of amazement, and she knew that the shoes were really valuable, she couldn't help laughing at herself, it seemed that she really didn't know the goods.
Rong Xi's attention was not on the shoes, but on the tone of the seventh princess, she seemed to be remembering something, could it be ...... Are you missing the supreme glory of the beginning?
Once the proud daughter of the sky, once like this, no one has a grudge in their hearts, and they can't be calmed down, right?
However, Rong Xi raised his eyebrows and smiled, this is all you looking for yourself.
"Yes, the things that the emperor gave to the princess are naturally precious," Rong Qiu echoed.
"If you have anything to say, just say it," the Seventh Princess's soft tone instantly receded, and she regained her coldness and hardness, like a condescending phoenix, and swept lightly.
Rong Qiu sneered in his heart, what else are you pretending, that little...... Are you embarrassed to put up a shelf here? That is, because of the identity of this princess, because of the emperor Laozi, otherwise, if this kind of woman was born in an ordinary family, she would have been thrown on the street, saving people from embarrassment.
But because of the identity of this princess, she didn't dare to say it, she could only think in her heart.
Rong Qiu said in a low voice: "When the concubine came to find the princess, she naturally had something to ask for. ”
"What's the matter, tell me quickly." The seventh princess said impatiently: "The palace still needs to rest." ”
Rong Qiu was choked and swallowed, where do you look like you want to rest? Do you sit on a swing and rest? Let alone......
Rong Qiu couldn't help but feel hatred when she looked at this swing, she thought that when Leng Yixiu went to Rong Mansion, when she saw Rong Xi for the first time, she was Rong Xi looking back and smiling on this swing.
If it weren't for her swinging, if it weren't for the fact that she was seen by Leng Yixiu, if it weren't for the fact that she was forced to pretend to be Leng Yixiu, it was herself who met her......
If it weren't for the various qiē caused by this damn swing, how could there be today's qiē?
Thinking of this, she saluted the Seventh Princess again, her voice was low but firm, like solid ice frozen in winter, "click", "Princess, please also help the concubine, so as to get rid of Rongxi!" To relieve the hatred in the hearts of the princess and the concubine! ”
Rong Xi curled his lips and smiled, gently raised his hand and touched his smooth chin, as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world.
"Oh?" The seventh princess also smiled lightly, turned around, her eyes swept over Rong Qiu's face, she didn't say anything, just a faint question, but her eyes were like a few slaps, back and forth on Rong Qiu's face.
Rong Qiu's face was feverish when she looked at her, and the roots of her ears were hot, as if she had been roasted by fire.
Although the seventh princess has an arrogant personality and is quite disapproving in morality, she is the emperor's favorite daughter, and she has been in the top position for a long time, and there is no doubt about her innate nobility.
Although Rong Qiu is a young lady in the General's Mansion, she is a concubine after all, how can she be compared to a princess?
"What do you have that this palace can help you with?" The seventh princess looked at her slightly red face, and said slowly: "With your ability, this palace doesn't think that you can be compared with Rong Xi. ”
Rong Qiu's face became more and more hot when she was choked, she took a deep breath, her tone was full of resentment and viciousness, "Princess, this time is different, Suming Villa will be a blessed place for you and me, a place for Rong Xi to die!" ”
In the deep night, it is always a good time to listen to the news, and those who have the intention to weave nets and hunt will never let go of such a good opportunity, and a black shadow turned out from the courtyard of Leng Yiwei, the king of Qi, and went straight to the direction of the east.
Leng Yiwei stood under the window of the study, gently pushed the window open, the night breeze blew in his face, pushed his hair, and slowly fluttered on his body, he squinted his eyes slightly, and a pair of eyes flashed with a cold light.
He looked in the direction the shadow was running and smiled softly.
The black shadow fell in the courtyard of the King of England, the courtyard was very quiet, only under the porch there was a dead wind lamp, to gently flutter in the wind, the black shadow fell on the wall, hiding in the shadows, listening attentively.
At this hour, the guards patrolling in front of the courtyard had just passed by, and there was silence.
The black shadow walked up the steps slowly, without making a sound, his body as light as a tanuki, a black cloth covering his face, revealing a pair of bright fox eyes.
He turned around, the cat was under the window, and waited for a long time, to make sure there was no sound, and then slowly straightened up, and he took out a shining silver needle from his bosom, which flashed coldly in the moonlight.
The silver needle was held in his fingertips and gently pierced into the window paper, but without making any sound, he pierced one by one, one by one, until the dense needle eyes allowed him to see clearly what was going on in the room.
There was no one in the room.
Although the master said when he came that the King and Princess of England went out and were not in the courtyard, he was still cautious and did not dare to have a trace of relaxation and carelessness.
It was because of his prudence that he was the most outstanding of all the members, and the most appreciated by his master, that he slowed down his breathing, drew a sharp dagger from his waist, struck twice at the crack in the window, and then gently pried the window open.
There was still no sound.
He smiled in satisfaction, jumped out of the window, and closed it gently.
There was no light in the room, and it was impossible for him to light a fire, so he could only take advantage of the moonlight leaking in and squint at the things in the room.
His eye and night vision are the first, which is one of the reasons for his outstanding results.
Stepping to the bookshelf, his fingers gently stroking over the books, one row, two rows, three rows...... There was nothing unusual, just when he was about to be disappointed, suddenly, his fingers were slightly stiff, the soft feeling of the paper unique to books disappeared, and the fingertips were a little crisp.
The man in black had a happy face, and his fingers gently stroked the book.
