Chapter 103: The Door of Conspiracy
The seventh princess also came over and said, "It's a pity," she said in her mouth, but there was no pity in her expression and tone, and there was a faint sense of excitement, she turned her head to look at the sixth princess and said, "Sixth sister, please take the third sister-in-law to change clothes." ”
"No need," Rong Xi refused lightly, just a glass of wine, what big deal can it be? What's more, she hasn't figured it out yet.
She just finished refusing, only to see a pair of black boots appear in her lowered eyes, embroidered with gold silk claws, like sharp claws rising in the air, her heart warmed, and then her hands were also warm, Leng Yixiu's voice came from the top of her head: "Are you okay?" ”
The voice was scattered in the aroma of wine, with layers of warmth, which made Rong Xi's somewhat irritable heart instantly calm, she raised her head and looked into his black eyes, his eyes were deep but shining, like two precious gems, she curled her lips at him and smiled, "It's okay." ”
"Third brother, I'm really embarrassed," the seventh princess saw the flow of affection between the two people, and her heart was dripping with hatred, she stepped forward and said, "Why don't you let the sixth sister accompany the third sister-in-law to change clothes?" It's really not appropriate to get wet like this, and it smells of alcohol. ”
Rong Xi and Leng Yixiu's eyes flew together, Leng Yixiu heard Qigong's words, his eyes couldn't help but be cold, he moved his lips and was about to refuse, but Rong Xi pressed his fingers, his palms were very hot, but his fingers were slightly cold, the bones were exquisite, and there were thin calluses between his fingers.
Leng Yixiu swallowed back the words in his mouth and asked Rong Xi what he meant with his eyes, but Rong Xi smiled at the seventh princess and said, "There is Sixth Sister Lao." ”
A hint of joy suddenly burst out between the eyebrows of the seventh princess, and then she turned her head and said to the sixth prince, "Go quickly." The sixth princess bit her lip and stood up.
"Third sister-in-law, please come with me." The sixth princess walked up to Rong Xi and said.
"Where to take her to change?" Leng Yixiu stared at the sixth princess and asked.
His gaze was cold, his slightly constricted eyes were like goshawks flying high in the sky, and there was no warmth in his tone, the sixth princess trembled slightly, and small beads of sweat appeared on the tip of her nose, "Go back to the third brother, is you going...... Apse. ”
"Oh?" Leng Yixiu smiled slightly, raised his eyebrows and looked at the seventh princess, "How come the seventh sister knows that your third sister-in-law is going to be spilled wine today, so she specially prepared clothes in the apse?" ”
The seventh princess's smile froze, and the sixth princess's movements also stopped, a trace of panic appeared in her eyes, and then she quickly lowered her head.
"The third brother doesn't know? Father Emperor saw that the seventh sister usually had a lively temperament, and although Xiaoyun Palace was remote, it was quiet and beautiful, so she was specially allowed to stay here for a few days every month in order to cultivate her self-cultivation. Qi King Leng Yiwei suddenly spoke.
"Oh?" Leng Yixiu smiled faintly, but the smile only floated in his eyes, and did not reach the bottom of his eyes, "Eighth brother knows very well, but my brother doesn't know about this." ”
King Qi pursed his lips and smiled, "The third brother is joking, I also heard my father inadvertently talk about this matter, the younger brother is not like the third brother, he only pays attention to national affairs, and these household trivial matters are naturally well-informed." ”
Leng Yixiu turned his head to look at him, just gritted his teeth slightly, and then smiled softly, the smile was long, and the hooked lips were with a cold feeling, "National affairs?" A homely chore? Why does the eighth brother think that this royal family still has a family thing? Presumably you are so filial, my father must be very happy! ”
Leng Yiwei's face changed slightly, but Leng Yixiu no longer looked at him, flicked his sleeves and turned around and sat back in his seat.
The sixth princess hung her head and came over to support Rong Xi, but Rong Xi smiled at Liu Yuhe and said, "Can the eighth brother and sister go with me?" Liu Yuhe was slightly stunned, and before she could refuse, Rong Xi continued: "It's not very convenient for the sixth sister to accompany me alone, she still has to guard outside, and it will be faster for me to have someone to help me when I change clothes." ”
Liu Yuhe wanted to refuse but couldn't find a suitable reason, so she had to look at Leng Yiwei for help, Leng Yiwei hadn't opened his mouth yet, Rong Xi said, "Eighth brother should have no opinion, right?" ”
A faint hesitation appeared on Leng Yiwei's pale face, and then he met Rong Xi's smiling gaze, only to feel that this woman's eyes were really as bright as stars, and the light seemed to be able to shine into his heart, making him feel an indescribable strange feeling in his heart, so he nodded and said, "Okay." ”
When the seventh princess heard him agree, she bit her lip slightly, and glanced at him, implying dissatisfaction, but the matter was irreparable.
The sixth princess seemed to be a little overwhelmed in the face of this sudden incident, she was already very nervous, and now she ...... She scratched at the hem of her skirt, and the folds were scratched in her gorgeous dress.
"What are you doing? Hurry up and take the third sister-in-law. The seventh princess couldn't get used to her hesitant appearance, and came over to remind her, her voice was a little cold and a little harsh, and the sixth princess immediately trembled again.
Rong Xi saw the reactions of these people, but he didn't see them on his face, and just said with a smile: "Please lead the way, two of you." ”
The sixth princess walked in front with her head down, walking towards the door to the apse, Liu Yuhe also smiled, but no matter how she looked at it, it was a little unnatural.
"It's a pity that it's a good glass of wine," Rong Xi looked relaxed, chatting with Liu Yuhe beside him as he walked, "Eighth brother and sister, did you say?" ”
"Yes...... Ah, no," Liu Yuhe felt that it was wrong when she spoke, and hurriedly smiled: "What did the third sister-in-law say, it was just a glass of wine, no matter how expensive it was, it was also for people to drink, and I blamed me for being reckless, knocking over the third sister-in-law's wine, and wetting my clothes." ”
"Look at you, I don't mean to blame you." Rong Xi's smile became more and more kind, his eyes were clear, and he grabbed Liu Yuhe's wrist affectionately as he spoke, and when he looked down, he saw the blood jade bracelet on her wrist, "Yo, this jade bracelet of the eighth brother and sister is really beautiful, the whole body is blood red, it is really the best." ”
When Liu Yuhe heard her praise for her jade bracelet, her face showed a slight smugness, "It's okay, this is the dowry that my grandmother gave me when I married the prince." ”
Rong Xi's face was full of envy when he listened, but he sneered in his heart, big wedding? It's just a side concubine who became a later, it turned out to be just a concubine, how could she get married?
She looked at it for a while, praised a few words, and then let go of her hand, and her fingers quietly wiped it on the brocade handkerchief, really...... There is too much fat powder on this woman.
She looked at the sixth princess who was walking in front of her, and then looked around, "Sixth sister, why can't you be there yet?" It's just to go to the apse, why do you have to walk for so long? ”
The sixth princess's back stiffened, and she turned her head, but she lowered her eyes, didn't dare to look at Rong Xi, and said in a weak voice: "It's almost there, it's coming soon." ”
However, Liu Yuhe explained: "The third sister-in-law doesn't know, this Xiaoyun Palace is larger than other palaces, and it was later expanded, so it will feel farther away." ”
"Oh?" Rong Xi smiled slightly, two rays of light flew out of the corners of his slender eyes, and in a trance, like two sharp knives, Liu Yuhe's breathing suddenly tightened, and he shrunk his neck.
"Then let's go." Rong Xi said lightly.
When Liu Yuhe heard what she said, she let out a sigh, secretly hating herself in her heart, but she just glanced at her, why was she so nervous just now? She quietly took another deep breath, and the fingers under her sleeve shook hard, no matter what, today's matter is very important, and it must not fail.
Whether it is for himself or for the prince, once today's matter is done, then his position in the palace is stable, and the princess above is just an ornament, and he will be the head of the side concubines at that time.
Moreover, things are going smoothly, and King Ning's face has to be thrown to Java, so what qualifications do he have to compete with his own prince?
She was thinking about it, the six princesses in front of her had already walked towards a small door, there were a few cracks on the black wooden door, like a hideous wound, and the black paint on it had also fallen off a lot, revealing black and gray stubble, mottled and vicissitudes.
Rong Xi squinted her eyes slightly, and the corner of her eyes swept over Liu Yuhe beside her, she seemed to be a little nervous, as if she was worried about what she was asking or refusing to go through that door, it seemed that all the strange things today should be behind this door.
What exactly?
Trap? Rong Xi flashed this thought, and quickly denied it, no, if it is a trap, how can a total of three people in the same company be so accurate and only let themselves fall into the trap?
Hidden weapons? It's a possibility, it's just ...... Entering the palace by yourself is something that many people know, why choose such a time? If you have the ability to go out or go directly to King Ning's Mansion to assassinate, how can you be brought here? Even if it's successful, what should I do after I kill it? Whoever knows, all those who have lost their mouths? Even those princes and princesses were wiped out? Is it possible?
Rong Xi calmed his mind, his whole body was vigilant, but his face was as usual, seeing that she had no doubts, and there was no intention of stopping, Liu Yuhe seemed to relax a little.
"Ouch!" Just as Rong Xi was about to reach the door, her body tilted, she raised her hand to hold on to the wall on one side, her fingers secretly forced, leaving a shallow mark on the wall, but the other hand held her leg, with a painful expression on her face.
"What's wrong?" Liu Yuhe hurriedly asked.
"Hmm...... It seems to be a sprain," Rong Xi said with a frown, rubbing his fingers gently at his ankle.
Liu Yuhe's expression was anxious, and he unconsciously looked at the door, "How can this be good?" ”
Rong Xi sighed, "It hurts a lot, why don't you go to the palace and call a few palace maids out of the palace?" Give me a hand. ”
"How can there be a palace maid here......" Liu Yuhe blurted out, and after saying it, he realized that he had said the wrong thing, and he was stunned before he hurriedly covered it up: "Today, the princess set up a banquet, and they all went to the front to help." ”
Rong Xi lowered his head, hooked his lips and smiled.
