Dongfang Ling Wu frowned and walked slowly towards his Ling Xin Palace, halfway through, paused, stunned in place for a moment, turned his head and walked back to Zhaoxian Palace quickly.

The little eunuch guarding the palace gate saw Princess Fengling go and return, and hurriedly greeted her, "Your Royal Highness the princess, is there something left here by Zhaoxian Niangniang?" "If something hadn't been left in the palace, it wouldn't have come back suddenly," something was left behind, and the slave went to fetch it for the princess. The little eunuch smiled flatteringly.

Seeing that the princess didn't answer, the little eunuch smiled and shouted again: "Your Royal Highness the princess? He bent down and stood in front of Dongfang Lingwu, waiting for her orders.

Dongfang Lingwu lowered his eyes and hesitated for a moment, then asked slowly, "Where does Senior Sister Chu live?" She came back, just to find Chu Mi, and she had many questions in her heart, and only Chu Mi could answer them for her. Concubine Xian won't sue her, Dongfang Du won't sue her, and Chu Mi seems to be an insider.

"Miss Chu lives in the side hall, and the slave will lead the way for the princess." The little eunuch wondered how Princess Fengling could come to find Miss Chu, Miss Chu was the senior sister of the second prince, and she didn't seem to have much friendship with Princess Fengling, but whether there was friendship or not, he was a little eunuch, and he had to lead the way for Princess Fengling.

The little eunuch took Dongfang Lingwu to the room where Chu Mi lived, raised his hand and pointed to the room and said, "This is where Miss Chu lives. Seeing that the door was closed, he continued: "Miss Chu's house is usually closed, but people are there most of the time. The little eunuch saw that Princess Fengling seemed to hesitate on her face, and said thoughtfully: "The slave will knock on the door for the princess." ”

"No need." Dongfang Lingwu called out to the little eunuch who was about to knock on the door, "You go down first." The hand hidden in the cloak grabbed the cuffs nervously, I don't know if it was because I was nervous about the question I was going to ask, or because I was nervous because I had to face Chu Mi alone, I always felt that this Chu Mi was different from others when facing himself.

"No, the minion went down first." Seeing that Princess Fengling was obviously unwilling to let him stay, the little eunuch bowed down with a smile.

Chu Mi in the house had already heard the movement outside the house, got up and walked slowly to the door, opened the door, and saw Dongfang Lingwu standing in front of the door in a daze, "Your Royal Highness Princess, are you here to find me?" Walked out of the door and walked to Dongfang Lingwu, "Come into the house, it's cold outside." ”

In winter, charcoal fires are lit in the house. Chu Mi is a person who practices martial arts, and she doesn't feel very cold outside the house, but Dongfang Lingwu is different, she is a pampered princess, and she has not learned any advanced martial arts since she was a child, so she has to teach the martial artist a few sets of boxing and leg techniques to strengthen the body, and there is no way to use internal strength to keep out the cold.

Dongfang Lingwu, who was thinking about it, came back to his senses, looked at Chu Mi, and replied, "There is a lot of disturbance." Then he stepped into Chu Mi's house first.

"Sit down." Chu Mi followed Dongfang Lingwu into the house, turned around and closed the door, walked to Dongfang Lingwu's side, and motioned for her to sit down and talk. poured a cup of hot tea and handed it to Dongfang Lingwu, thinking that she would hold her warm hands.

Dongfang Lingwu took off his cloak, put it aside, took the hot tea handed by Chu Mi, held it in his hand, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Why don't you have a palace maid and eunuch here to serve you?" "This is the way of hospitality, and there is not even a single subordinate.

Chu Miwan smiled, "I'm just a rough man, where do I need someone to serve." "If there is a palace maid and eunuch waiting in her room for twelve hours a day, how can she take off the □□ on her face, and she will not be suffocated.

Catching a glimpse of Dongfang Lingwu's tightly knit eyebrows, after thinking about it for a while, he knew that she was not here to tell her some trivial matters about the palace maid and eunuch, and seeing that she hesitated and seemed to be unable to open her mouth, she asked first: "Your Royal Highness Princess, what are you here for?" With a knowing expression, he looked at Dongfang Lingwu with a light smile.

"Senior Sister Chu, are you ...... Why are you transfigured? When chatting with the mother, I suddenly saw a strange woman come in, if it wasn't for the mother concubine who said that Mi'er was coming, I was afraid that she would have to ask who the girl in front of her was. Hearing that the strange woman in front of him was Chu Mi, Dongfang Lingwu was stunned and speechless on the spot, and after some effort, he suppressed the surprise in his heart, turned his head and pretended to be casual and chatted, but the doubts in his heart were more and more.

Why did Dongfang Du bring Chu Mi back to the palace, and why did he let Chu Mi live in Concubine Xian's Zhaoxian Palace, why did someone suddenly poison Concubine Xian after many years of calm in the palace, one by one, Dongfang Lingwu, who is a princess, is also a person in the palace and the daughter of Emperor Qianwen, and this mind is not comparable to ordinary people.

"This, you also know my true appearance, if I show my true appearance, I am afraid that there will be many troubles." Chu Mi replied with a smile, looking at Dongfang Lingwu intently, "What else does the princess want to ask?" Looking at her like that, I knew that what she wanted to ask would not be just that, but I was afraid that there were still many things in my heart.

Thinking back to Chu Mi's face that brought disaster to the country and the people, my heart was pinched, and then I looked at her ordinary and ordinary appearance now, I really felt a little unbearable. Thinking of her father and those royal brothers, he also believed in the purpose of her disguise.

There was silence for a moment.

Chu Mi only smiled and looked at Dongfang Lingwu, who was hesitant and entangled, and no longer urged. Dongfang Lingwu hesitated again and again, bit his lower lip lightly, and decided to ask Chu Mi directly: "You and Du, are you planning something?" She didn't want to beat around the bush anymore, she intuitively felt that they were planning something, but she didn't want to tell her.

"Me and Xiaodu, what can we plan?" Chu Mi slowly approached Dongfang Lingwu, and was about to paste it, "Princess, this is something related to Xiaodu, why don't you ask her and ask me as an outsider?" "She's just Dongfangdu's senior sister, but not her Dongfang Lingwu's senior sister.

As she spoke, Chu Mi raised her right hand and lightly clasped Dongfang Lingwu's chin, turning her face to herself: "Or does the princess want to come to see me?" After a pause, he continued: "If you didn't want to come to see me, how could you come to me?" This self-questioning and self-answering, coupled with the obviously teasing and teasing action, made Dongfang Lingwu a little uncomfortable.

After being slightly stunned and coming back to his senses, Dongfang Lingwu raised his hand and slapped Chu Mi's right hand, "Senior Sister Chu, you...... You show respect, this palace is telling you the right thing. "In front of Concubine Xian, that generous and decent Chu Mi, how could he suddenly seem to be a different person. I was talking about serious things, but I didn't expect Chu Mi to be so inserious.

Seeing Dongfang Lingwu's face gloomy, Chu Mi hooked the corners of his lips, withdrew his hand, and sat up straight, "What's the matter, the princess should go and ask Xiaodu, I won't say." "I sighed in my heart, it turned out that it was so interesting to tease the princess, but compared with Xiaodu, it was still much more interesting for Xiaodu.

"In that case, don't bother too much." Dongfang Lingwu saw that this Chu Mi would not tell her about the matter at all, but this kind of appearance was a good thing for Dongfang Du, at least it showed that her senior sister would never hurt her.

Dongfang Lingwu resisted the urge to slap her, got up, put the cloak back on his body, hesitated for a moment, but turned his head and thanked Chu Mi: "Senior Sister Chu, thank you." "Thank you for protecting the second emperor brother like this.

"For her, I am willing." Chu Mi smiled slightly, watching Dongfang Lingwu leave. After Dongfang Lingwu left, he put away that smile and began to think about the next plan.

Dongfang Du only took a pillar of incense, and roughly said the general plan, how to do this, it depends on Chu Mi to draw it carefully. Thinking of Senior Brother Fang Huiting, who he hadn't seen for a long time, the corners of his lips rose, "Senior Brother, it seems that I can't let you go around freely outside alone." ”

November 21, 15th year of Qiansheng, early dynasty.

The nineteen-year-old prince Dongfang Xi has participated in the early dynasty since he was seventeen years old, listening to the civil and military officials playing state affairs, watching Emperor Qianwen deal with the art of civil and military officials, and learning the way of being a king. And in the early dynasty today, in addition to the crown prince, Dongfangdu, who is the second prince, unexpectedly appeared on the Zichen Palace.

In addition to the hussar general Zhang Shaocheng understood why the second prince, who was only fourteen years old, appeared in the Zichen Palace, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty whispered in their ears why he appeared.
