The third prince was obviously very tired, and fell asleep after breakfast, and Xiao Xia was always excited to get the eight night pearls.

She asked the craftsmen of the palace to make a two-layer big box, wrapped all the eight night pearls in black velvet cloth and put them in the box, and opened the box every once in a while to see.

Every time I see those beads, I feel how happy I am when I see my reborn self.

The third prince had only slept for two hours, and someone came to him and said that he had something important to report.

Although he couldn't bear to disturb his dreams, Xiao Xia knew that the situation between the DPRK and China was tense and he couldn't delay for half a minute, so he called him up in person.

The third prince whispered a few words to the visitor, sent the person away, and said goodbye to Xiao Xia with a stern face.

He took Xiao Xia's hand and took her out quickly, saying that he personally familiarized her with the environment of the palace.

Coming out of the courtyard, he didn't speak, knowing that when he walked near a long row of rooms with high eaves and arches, he pointed to the row of houses and said: "See, this is the warehouse of my palace, and the valuables of my palace are hidden here, I will give you a jade plate, and there are important things, just go and get whatever you need." ”

Xiao Xia waved her hand again and again, except for the night pearl, she didn't need anything else, but the third prince was very insistent, put the thing in the palm of her hand, grabbed her hand and wrapped it, kissed her lightly on the forehead, and then leaned into her ear and whispered:

"Xiao Xia, I won't come back in the last few ****, and the house will depend on you. There is a secret passage behind this warehouse, once you hear the wind, or find out that something is wrong, hurry out of the secret passage, leave the capital quickly, and go to Huguo Temple to take refuge. ”

Then he stepped back a little, took Xiao Xia's hand and looked down at her and sighed softly: "I'm sorry, I let you go through this as soon as you marry into the door." You won't blame me, will you? ”

Xiao Xia shook his head vigorously, of course not, he did a qiē for himself, what right did he have to resent him? On the contrary, if he knew that he was approaching him because he wanted to use him, he would definitely hate himself!

Looking at her reluctant and pitiful with tears in her eyes, the third prince's heart was warm. He took her into his arms again: "Don't look at me like that. I will be reluctant to leave you for half a minute, and I can't wait to take you with me every day. But...... I can't wait long, as long as this time it happens. I'll take you with me every day, okay? ”

The third prince took Xiao Xia's hand and walked back slowly, and someone outside urged him again, and the three princes didn't say anything but waved their hands to let them retreat.

"Konatsu. I'm leaving, take care of myself. Wait until I'll come back and pick you up, you know? ”

Xiao Xia was melancholy in her heart, she knew what he was going to do, this could be life and death. Even if he succeeds, we will go further and further apart in the future, right? For some reason, Xiao Xia was really reluctant at this time.

The third prince pinched her face. He smiled at her and turned to walk outside.

Xiao Xia stood quietly in the courtyard. Watching him slowly walk away, walking through the doors one by one, no one was seen again.

"Miss, where is the third prince?"

Xiao Xia turned around and saw that it was Guilan who was asking, her eyes were full of smiles, and she didn't look like she had no mind.

Xiao Xia thought about it, shook her head, turned around and went back to the house, and handed a letter to Guilan, asking her to send it to the Liang Mansion as soon as possible.

After about half an hour, Gui Ying didn't come back, but the breeze outside the window floated, and there was a familiar smell.

Xiao Xia, who was napping, suddenly woke up, she tiptoed out of the room, looked around, and there was silence around her.

She went to the study silently, and ordered the guard at the door not to let anyone in.

When she closed the door of the study and turned around, a strong wind blew in her face, and with a bang, she was choked by the neck and pressed against the door panel, and in front of her was the familiar face, but the eyes were terribly cold.

"Say! Why did you kill my grandmother? ”

Xiao Xia opened her mouth and couldn't speak, so she could only look at him fixedly. She knew that when Liang Chenjing came back, she asked Gui Ying to send a letter to call him, why did she call him? Because I want to tell him the truth, I can no longer condone Su Linglong's misdeeds and harm people everywhere.

Their faces were close at hand, and although his hand was around her neck, he didn't exert half of his strength, but just restrained her so that she couldn't move.

Xiao Xia slowly raised her hand and gently stroked his cheek, tears unconsciously welling up in her eyes.

Liang Chenjing's heart moved slightly, and he suddenly let go and retreated, and Xiao Xia, who had lost his support, slowly slid down the door panel.

Liang Chenjing turned his face sideways and didn't look at her, he was afraid that as soon as he saw her eyes, his heart would involuntarily soften and even be moved, he stood at the table with his hands in his hands: "What are you looking for me?" ”

Xiao Xia sat on the ground for a while, trying to suppress his feelings, got up and walked to the table and sat down, ready paper and pen: "Do you also think that I poisoned the old lady to death?" ”

When Liang Chenjing saw this, a tangled and complicated hatred rose in his eyes, and he clenched his fists: "You are not allowed to mention my grandma, you are not worthy!" ”

Xiao Xia's heart ached, and he felt that his words were like a heavy punch to his heart.

She closed her eyes and took a few deep breaths before suppressing the pain in her heart and wrote: "It doesn't matter if you don't believe me, what do you think of Su Linglong?" ”

Liang Chenjing frowned slightly: "What do you want to say?" ”

Xiao Xia looked at him with a little impatience in his eyes, and seemed to be very unhappy that he mentioned Su Linglong's name, he still loves her, right? Will he believe what I say? Believe it or not, this is the last time, let him decide for himself.

Xiao Xia gritted his teeth, took out the porcelain bottle containing Gu worms from his sleeve and pushed it in front of him, Liang Chenjing glanced at it: "What is this?" ”

Xiao Xia gave him a look and asked him to take a closer look, Liang Chenjing picked up the porcelain bottle and looked around, and could faintly see that there seemed to be a red thing in the bottle slowly squirming, and he had a bad feeling in his heart.

Liang Chenjing has been walking the rivers and lakes for many years, and he has seen a lot, but he has never seen this thing.

He put down the porcelain vase and asked, "What is it?" ”

Xiao Xia wrote down two words, Liang Chenjing was immediately shocked, he picked up the porcelain bottle and looked at it carefully: "This is really a Gu worm?" ”

Xiao Xia nodded, Liang Chenjing thought about it, impossible, I heard that Gu worms have always had a male and a female, it is impossible for one to survive alone, and they survive by sucking human blood, how can they grow in a porcelain bottle?

Xiao Xia wrote: "In the bottle is my blood, which must be changed every day, and it must be soaked in it to survive, this is only male." The other one that was drawn out of my heart was in Su Linglong's hand. ”

Liang Chenjing was shocked again, no matter how stupid he was, he understood that Xiao Xia meant that his beloved wife Su Linglong had used this Gu worm to control Xiao Xia, and Xiao Xia found someone to untie it, but Linglong stayed in Liang Mansion every day, how could there be such a thing? She is her own pillow person. How could he not be aware of the use of witchcraft at all?

No way! When pigs fly! It must be this girl who wants to frame Linglong!

Liang Chenjing raised his eyes to look at Xiao Xia. Seeing that she was looking at herself with real eyes, it was written on the paper:

"I know you won't believe it, and that's okay. I just want to tell you that ten days ago I suddenly fell ill and made a lot of noise in the house, and even lost my mind. It was Su Linglong's doing.

She accused me of drugging my sister-in-law, so that my sister-in-law could not have children for the rest of her life. He poisoned the two rough mothers-in-law in my hospital, who should have wanted to poison me, and those two mothers-in-law had exactly the same symptoms as the old lady's poisoning. ”

Liang Chenjing was shocked, and his face became more and more ugly. Xiao Xia's writing hand did not stop:

"You can not believe me for a while, but I want you to be wary of her in case she attacks the people in the house again.

And also. Guilan beside me was also tricked by Gu, and Su Linglong asked me to write down the whereabouts of the three princes every day and hand them over to Guilan. Guilan will be handed over to the person she wants, Gui Ying has been tracking before, but there are many masters on the other side, Gui Ying is not an opponent, I hope you will focus on the overall situation, track Guilan, and catch the mastermind behind the scenes.

This matter is related to the survival of the Liang Mansion, please be sure to go. ”

Xiao Xia wrote this long list of words in one breath, she put down the pen and rubbed her hands, and finally said it, her heart was much more relaxed, and the rest was up to him!

She looked up at Liang Chenjing and saw that his face was expressionless, but his eyes were struggling and tangled, and he didn't want to believe it and couldn't believe it.

His reaction was expected, it was already very good that he didn't hurt himself, he needed to be calm, he needed to think about it, Xiao Xia didn't bother him, silently wrote a letter, and wrote down the process of the third prince coming back in the morning to leaving at noon and put it in an envelope and put it on the table.

Looking back at Liang Chenjing again, she was going to ask Guilan to pick up things, didn't he think about it yet?

Liang Chenjing closed his eyes and took two deep breaths, then opened his eyes and looked dark and profound: "Okay, I'm going on this trip, but it doesn't mean that I believe you, I just want to verify and verify, see if what you say is true or false?" ”

Xiao Xia smiled, this was the expected result, she knew that he would definitely agree.

Xiao Xia nodded to him, motioned for her to hide, and then opened the door and went out, seeing Gui Ying and Gui Lan standing at the door.

Xiao Xia beckoned Guilan into the door, pushed the letter in front of her, and motioned for her to send it away.

Guilan stood silently for a while, and sure enough, her eyes gradually lost their minds as before, but at this time, Xiao Xia's Gu worm flashed, Xiao Xia took it out and looked at it, and it was the unfamiliar voice again:

"Yu Xiaoxia, remember my warning, and let people follow you, I want you to regret it."

Xiao Xia smiled, raised her eyes to look at Guilan in Mune, and wrote a sentence: "Go, I won't send someone to follow you." ”

Guilan turned around and jumped out of the window, Gui Ying outside the door followed, Liang Chenjing walked out from behind the bookshelf, he silently glanced at Xiao Xia, and also flew out following the footsteps of the two.

Xiao Xia slowly stood up and walked to the window, looking at the direction in which they disappeared, Liang Chenjing made a move, this time he should be able to find the mastermind behind the scenes!

Husband, I can only help you this way, you hate me, you hate me, you hate me, our fate ends here, I hope we don't see each other again in this life.

Xiao Xia silently tidied up the study, returned a qiē to its original position, and carefully erased all the traces of his own.

Then she went back to her yard, under the pretext that she wanted to rest, sent away all the subordinates, silently packed up a few sets of clothes, put the night pearls in her bag, and prepared this qiē, she opened the door, sat on the chair, and waited for Gui Ying to come back.

In the middle of the afternoon, Gui Ying and Gui Lan both returned, and Gui Lan returned to her original state, no different from usual, but Gui Ying's face became more and more ugly.

Gui Ying made an excuse to take away a few other people, and came to see Xiao Xia alone, she knelt in front of Xiao Xia: "Miss, I have found the mastermind behind the scenes, it is the cousin of the queen's mother's family, Guilan sent the letter there, and they immediately forwarded it, and it should eventually reach the queen." ”

Xiao Xia lowered her eyes, this answer was expected and unexpected, Liang Chenjing saw it clearly, right? The Liang Mansion must fully support the three princes, so that the three princes have one more chance of winning, and the Liang family also has one more way out, isn't this exactly what they expected? As for whether they succeed or not, they can only resign themselves to fate!

Xiao Xia stood up and walked under the eaves to look up at the sky, she never felt that the sky in the capital was so good, it was so good, I was going to be free! Xiao Xia was in a good mood and pursed her lips and smiled.

"Miss, what are you laughing at?"

Xiao Xia looked back at Gui Ying, this girl has been with her for more than a year and has helped her a lot, she knows a lot of her own things, but it's a pity that I can't take her away.

Xiao Xia took out a letter and handed it to her, Gui Ying frowned slightly, she was very sensitive to sending a letter now, especially thinking of Guilan's matter, she felt very uncomfortable.

"Miss, is it important? Yes...... Let Gui Fang Guixiang send it? ”

Xiao Xia shook her head, stuffed the letter into her arms, took out a pen and paper and wrote: "The third prince said that something big is about to happen in the court, just in case, let me secretly leave the palace and hide." You have been acting like you were when I was still in the mansion these days, and when the matter is over, take Guilan to Huguo Temple to find Master Yuanfang, and he will cure Gu poison for Guilan. ”

Gui Ying was surprised after reading it: "Really, Miss, did the third prince only let you go out to take refuge alone?" What if someone recognizes you? Or let the slave follow you? ”

Xiao Xia shook her head, patted her shoulder, went back to the house to pick up her baggage, smiled at her before going out, and then walked out slowly.

Gui Fang and Gui Xiang chased after a few steps, Xiao Xia shook his head, pointed at Gui Ying, and walked out of the door alone.

Gui Fang and Gui Xiang looked dazed: "Sister Gui Ying, what is the young lady doing with her baggage?" Where is she going? ”

"Shh~ The third prince left a secret order to let Miss leave the palace alone, let's not do it, just do things like Miss is still doing that."

Gui Fang and Gui Xiang glanced at each other: "Huh? Is Miss alone? Why should we go and serve her alone? ”

Gui Ying shook her head slightly: "Miss won't let me!" Since it is the arrangement of the three princes...... Let's go! ”

In the evening of that day, Xiao Xia left the palace alone from the secret passage of the treasury, changed into civilian clothes, and left the capital before the city gate was closed, leaving the place where she wanted to return but made her sad.

Liang Chenjing, who was following Guilan, quickly caught up with Gui Ying, and he instructed Gui Ying to copy Guilan in the direction that he couldn't get through, avoiding interception, and finally saw her enter a mansion with his own eyes, and that mansion was, as Gui Ying said, the cousin's house of the queen's mother's family.

Liang Chenjing was shocked in his heart, although he didn't want to believe it, but Xiao Xia's words were being confirmed step by step, Guilan was instructed by Linglong, so Linglong was also related to this matter?

No, he didn't believe it, he was going back and asking Linglong in person. (To be continued.) )
