Chapter 276: Secret Letter

Because of the news of the disappearance of the second prince, there was a dead silence in the palace, and everyone knew that the emperor and the empress were on the verge of collapse, and no one dared to disturb them.

For the missing person, time means a qiΔ“, the sooner it is found, the more hope there is for life, with the time on the road of Zhao Yunfan, there has been no news for seven days, and all the people are waiting depressedly, waiting????

Xibao was also anxious in her heart, when she was helping Qi You sort out the text in the Yangxin Palace before, she had seen it, such a situation, such a rainfall, it was inevitable that the embankment would burst, as the second prince of the water control Qincha, there was no reason not to know this, even if he didn't know, the accompanying water control officials were not stupid.

Besides, even if the second prince is young and vigorous, and he is a little arbitrary, when it comes to the experience that he is a child in the end, those auxiliary ministers sent are all unable to eat dry food, thinking about it, Xibao thought of a possibility, that is, some radical behaviors of the second prince threatened the interests of some people, that is, those wicked people who could not make profits early, so they suffered this catastrophe.

But after thinking about it, she had already told Qi You clearly, and Qi You seemed to have a plan, just like what she thought before, Xibao felt that Qi You sent the second prince to disaster relief was a temptation, he seemed to want to see how bold those people were, and where they could put the law, this seems to be a trap, but who is the outsider?

The more Xibao thought about it, the worse he became, even Huanyue found that her mother was a little distracted these days, always holding him and looking at the sky in a daze, Xiao Huanyue was still young, how could he understand Xibao's worries at the moment, he just knew that his mother didn't seem to pay attention to him, so Xiao Huanyue babbled: "Cool?? Cool??? Cool! ”

Xibao was exchanged for thoughts by Xiao Huanyue's shout, and smiled slightly: "What's wrong?" ”

Xiao Huanyue frowned and babbled, "Cool??? Look? ”

Xibao smiled: "Is Huan Yue asking what her mother is looking at?" ”

Xiao Huanyue nodded: "Look! ”

Xibao hugged him and said, "Mother is watching the sky, I don't know when this rain will stop????"

"Rain?? Rain???? Under???? Cool????? Outside????? Rain ????" Xiao Huanyue wants to go outside to play in the rain.

Where would Xibao be in any mood, Huanyan on the side also knew that Xibao was uncomfortable, so he said: "Mother, give your brother to your daughter." His daughter took him to the side hall to play, and he didn't want to rain for a while. ”

Xibao glanced at Huanyan and said, "Forget it, you still have books to read, Xiao Huanyue is still hugged by her mother." ”

Huan Yan put down the book in his hand and said, "Mother is worried about my uncle." ”

Xibao sighed: "Seven days without faith. How can you not worry, it is not somewhere else, it is the place where the flood is overflowing, and when your uncle goes, the hearts of the heads of the family are hanging. ”

Huan Yan was a little embarrassed: "Mother." They say that the second emperor brother fell into the water and disappeared, is this true? ”

Xibao knew that the news had already spread throughout the harem, and it was normal for Huan Yan to know, she sighed: "The news is so, but my mother is not very clear, your eldest uncle went there this time to find out the truth." ”

Huan Yan was stunned for a moment and said: "Mother, if something happens to the second emperor brother, will the eldest emperor brother be happy?" ”

"Huanyan? What do you hear? Xibao was a little surprised that ten-year-old Huanyan would ask such a question.

Huan Yan hesitated a little and said: "It's not just that I heard it, but my daughter saw it with her own eyes." Two days ago, my daughter got out of school, and the garden was waterlogged, so my daughter disturbed the road and passed through the rockery forest, and happened to meet the eldest brother who was smiling goodbye to Concubine Xian, and the daughter heard Concubine Xian say something Don't steal joy or something, the eldest brother seems to be very confident and said What has nothing to do with this matter, destiny is also??? Mother, my daughter always thinks that the eldest brother is not as sad as others. ”

Xibao walked a few steps and asked, "Is there anyone else who sees it but you?" ”

"No, my daughter was alone that day. Ou, in order to prevent the eldest brother from seeing me, I waited for half an hour before I came back by detour, mother, do you say that the eldest brother is very happy? Huan Yan shook his head and said.

Xibao was stunned at first. Then he said: "Huan Yan, in this case, you can only ask your mother, you must not mention it again in front of other people, even your father is the same, do you understand?" ”

Huan Yan nodded and said, "My daughter knows, but why is this." The mother taught her daughter's brother and brother Gongzhi to say, so why did the second emperor brother have an accident and the eldest emperor brother had such an attitude? ”

Xibao took a deep breath and said: "Huan Yan, you are ten years old, and you are not young, you should know a lot of things but look at the surface, my mother doesn't want to say what happened between your eldest brother and the second emperor's brother, my mother just wants to tell you that people die for money, birds die for food, even if it is a close relationship, once personal interests are involved, it is inevitable that people will see that people's hearts are sinister, my mother doesn't want to scare you, but I don't want you to live in a naΓ―ve, you have to remember that you can't have the heart to harm people, and you can't have the heart to prevent people, understand?" ”

Huan Yan frowned and was stunned for a long time and said: "Mother, you don't have to worry, this, Uncle Wuwang sued his daughter a few years ago, he said that the royal family is the most ruthless place, sometimes it is inevitable that the blood and blood will cheat me, not to mention outsiders, he also told his daughter to look more attentively, and wanted to ask first, so my daughter also thought about it for a few days before she dared to ask you." ”

Xibao was surprised, she didn't expect Qi Zhe to care so much about Huanyan in private, this is true, but is it a little early to teach, these five masters have always refused to get married, but they teach Huanyan as their own daughter, this affection, she just wants to ignore it.

was surprised, the white ape outside suddenly came in mysteriously, Xibao and Huanyan were startled, although the white ape is good at kung fu, but every time he will ask to see according to the rules, but this time he came in quietly, it really scared people.

The white ape also knew that he was a little reckless, but the matter was really urgent, so it could only be like this.

Xibao knew that he had something to say when he saw the white ape's expression, so he said to Huanyan: "Huanyan, you take your younger brother to the side hall first, my mother and your white ape uncle have something to say." ”

Huan Yan nodded and pulled the swaying little Huanyue to the side hall, and Xibao asked directly: "What happened to the white ape?" ”

The white ape said respectfully: "Niangniang, Lord Zhao's secret letter!" ”

"What! MeSign? Xibao was stunned, the secret letter given to him by the eldest brother, could something really happen.

Xibao was stunned for a moment and said, "Where is the letter?" ”

The white ape stepped up and said, "I just received my humble position, here." ”

Xi Bao took the secret letter and unfolded it, her face turned pale instantly, her heart rhythm was a little irregular, and her breathing was a little short, she shook her hands and said, "White Ape, do you know where the emperor has received a letter from the area along the Yellow River?" ”

The white ape pondered for a moment and said, "There shouldn't be." In the past few days, the emperor has either stayed in the Palace of Heart Cultivation or accompanied the queen's mother, if he received any news, he would not be so quiet, why did Lord Zhao say in the letter? ”

Xibao was a little panicked and said: "It seems that someone is indeed manipulating this matter behind the scenes!" ”

"What do you mean?" The white ape was a little puzzled.

The eldest brother said in the letter. Just in case, he divided the letter into three ways, one complete to the emperor, and two halves were sent to me and my sister-in-law, just to prevent the letter from not reaching the emperor as scheduled, it seems that the eldest brother's worry is still necessary."

Xi Bao pondered for a moment and then said, "White Ape." There's something you have to do overnight! ”

The white ape hugged his fists and said, "Niangniang just commands." ”

Xibao paused and said: "What Brother An means, there is bound to be half of the letter that has been sent to my sister-in-law, Bai Ape, you can go out of the palace, take my token to my eldest brother's house and pick up the second half of the letter overnight, this matter can't be delayed, you can leave." Xibao commanded.

The white ape was stunned and said: "This is a humble position, so I don't need to worry." ”

As he spoke, the white ape flashed out of the palace gate, and Xibao held half a letter and anxiously guarded the palace. Xibao knows that it is not a good kind that can force his eldest brother to act so cautiously, presumably the eldest brother's current situation should also be dangerous, just looking at the first half of the letter, you can guess one or two, this is obviously a list and a record of criminal evidence, just in case, Zhao Yunfan wrote them horizontally, and divided them into left and right, these things can only be understood by combining the two letters, and it is estimated that the situation of the second prince can be known by then.

Xibao just waited, late at night. Huan Yan and Huan Yue had already fallen asleep one after another, and Wen Qin saw Xibao's worried look and said, "Niangniang, what are you worried about?" ”

Xibao kept looking at the door and said, "What time is it, is the white ape man coming back?" ”

Wen Qin looked at the hour and said, "Master." It's already time to come, why don't you rest first, as soon as the white ape comes back, the slave and maid will immediately come in and inform you, it's not a problem for you to stay up like this. ”

Xibao shook his head and said, "How can I sleep." ”

Wenqin knew that Xibao was worried, but she didn't know what Xibao was worried about. Persuasion could not be persuaded, Wenqin had to warm up another pot of rose dew seeds and put it in front of Xibao and said, "Master, if you have to wait like this, the slave and maid will accompany you." ”

Xibao sighed: "It's okay, you better go down and rest for a while, I'm also destined to spend a night, if I don't get up or come back tomorrow, Huanyan and Huanyue still have to be taken care of by you, you go down and rest first." ”

As soon as Xibao said this, Wenqin's heart also followed and said, "Niangniang, you ??? What do you mean by that, don't scare the slaves. ”

Xibao sighed and said, "Don't worry, it's just a message for the eldest brother, you can go." ”

Wen Qin looked worried, but she couldn't resist Xibao, so she could only go down to rest first, but how could she sleep on this.

The time has passed, Xibao felt a little tired, so he got up and moved, but this sight has not left the temple gate, in the dead of night, the sound of the rain outside is a little chilling, this is almost three hours, the white ape should also come back, Xibao prayed to get the letter and return safely.

The rain is getting heavier, the night is getting deeper and deeper, and only the sound of heavy rain seems to be left in the darkness, and Xibao's heart tuggs???

was anxiously waiting, there were two sudden buttons outside the door of the hall, and before Xibao could react, the white ape was already soaking wet and appeared in the hall with a chill, and the rain flowed down the hem of his clothes.

Xibao asked carefully, "White Ape, are you okay?" ”

The white ape coughed twice and said: "Xie Niangniang cares, and there is nothing to do, but the rain is too hurried and a little choked??" Ahem?? Here's the other half's letter??? When the lowly office goes??? Niangniang's sister-in-law also just received it?? I haven't had time to open it yet????? Just in case?? Humble or abducted to the second brother's house to inform the second brother, after all, the sister-in-law orphans and widows?? I am afraid that someone will have bad intentions. ”

Xibao hurriedly handed the handkerchief to the white ape and said, "Thank you, thank you for your hard work, wipe the water on your body first." ”

The white ape took the handkerchief and wiped his face and said, "Niangniang, open it quickly and take a look, it should not be wet by the rain." (To be continued.) )
