Chapter 495: Eavesdropping
Not long after Lin Xiao left, Lin Qingqing hesitated for a while, but still got up and prepared to go to the palace to visit Su Mian.
It's just to visit, and even if they don't find out anything in the end, they can't do anything about her.
Thinking like this, Lin Qingqing had a little confidence, and it was also during this time that neither Gong Qianxue nor Gong Yuming had ever looked for him again, so that although Lin Qingqing was a little nervous, he was not too scared.
But Lin Qingqing didn't expect that when she arrived at the gate of the palace, she saw a car parked at the gate of the palace, and she recognized it almost at a glance, it was Gong Qianxue's carriage.
For a while, Lin Qingqing was so nervous that her heart beat faster, she didn't have the courage to get along with Gong Qianxue and Su Mian at all, because she knew that in that case, she wouldn't be able to control herself at all, and she would definitely be so nervous that she would be caught off guard and do something wrong.
So Lin Qingqing subconsciously hid.
At the gate of the palace, Gong Qianxue's maid Lianxin was still talking to the palace guards: "Our princess just heard that the princess was sick, so she wanted to come to visit, our princess is studying in the princess's academy, the two not only know each other, but also friends, and now it is natural to come to visit the patient, why can't you go in?" ”
The guard glanced at Lianxin suspiciously, and his tone was still resolute: "No, since it is a friend, then when the princess is in better health, it will be too late to visit again, and now the princess is not in good health, and she has been ordered, and the palace has not seen any guests in the past two days." ”
Lianxin was a little anxious, and stepped forward and said in an awe-inspiring tone: "Why are you so inflexible, you said that we are here to visit the patient, and our princess also brought some supplements to the princess, when she is well, is there still a need to visit the patient?" ”
"Lotus Heart." Gong Qianxue's soft voice came from the car, she lifted the curtain with one hand, glanced at Lianxin disapprovingly, and reprimanded, "Don't be so rude, since you said that you can't enter, then we won't go, just trouble this eldest brother to help us bring the gifts in, just let the love arrive, and when the princess is better, we will visit again." ”
Her attitude is friendly, and her tone is soft, and she can't see half of the princess's frame at all.
Compared with Lianxin, who had just commanded and yelled, Gong Qianxue was simply too gentle and approachable.
For a while, the guard was embarrassed to embarrass people, and after receiving the gift, his attitude eased, and he whispered in a harmonious voice: "Originally, the princess was not allowed to meet guests, but since the princess is here, then I will go in and report it, if the princess can meet the princess, it will naturally be the best." ”
"Thank you very much." Gong Qianxue's face was happy and she saluted.
After the doorman entered, it took almost half a pillar of incense to come out.
His face was also very solemn, and after he came out, he waved his hand helplessly and said: "Princess, please go back, the princess hasn't woken up yet, her body is really weak, she can't blow the wind, and she can't see guests." ”
Gong Qianxue's face was full of worry, her tone became more and more solemn, and she said: "It's so serious, then I won't bother, let's come back another day, Lianxin, let's go." ”
After getting into the carriage, Gong Qianxue's face immediately changed, she grabbed the handkerchief in her hand gloomily, and said sullenly: "I don't know if what this guard said is true, if this Su Mian hasn't woken up yet, I'm afraid it's a little serious, and I don't know what happened to make her such an optimistic person actually become like this." ”
Lian Xin shook her head slightly, and said helplessly: "The slave maid has asked someone to inquire, and they only said that she did not succeed in entering the palace, and no one knows what the hell is going on, but the speculation is flying all over the sky, but most of those speculations are not true." ”
Gong Qianxue closed her eyes slightly, stretched out her hand to support her head, and said in a long tone: "Who knows, rumors are spreading, maybe when will they come true, you tell me, what are the rumors?" ”
Lianxin hesitated for a moment, as if she didn't dare to open this mouth.
Gong Qianxue waited for a moment, and said impatiently: "Say, what can't you say." ”
Lian Xin pursed the corners of her mouth, and after suppressing the fear in her heart for a few minutes, she said tentatively: "It's not related to the regent, it is said that the princess was affected by his regent, and said that the prince must not have dealt with the errand arranged by the emperor when he went to the south this time, so the emperor did not wait to see the princess, and he also said...... The emperor has long seen that the prince is not pleasing to the eye, and wants to take this opportunity to get rid of ...... Get rid of him, this kind of hostile relationship, how can the emperor meet Su Mian, maybe he has already made people attack the prince. ”
Seeing that Gong Qianxue's face was difficult to see the extreme, she stared at Lianxin with a pair of eyes open, her eyes were dark and swarthy, and she couldn't see any emotion under her eyes, which made people panic, Lianxin panicked for a moment, and quickly explained: "Princess, these are all passed on by those people outside, not by the slave maid, and it has nothing to do with the slave maid." ”
Gong Qianxue sank her tone, and her voice was deep and cold: "Nonsense, don't listen, if you continue to come to the palace tomorrow, I don't believe that Su Mian will never wake up, as long as you know why she entered the palace." ”
If she inquired about it and had nothing to do with Gu Zhixing, she didn't want to care about Su Mian's affairs.
When Gong Qianxue's carriage left the street outside the palace, Lin Qingqing slowly stood up.
The guard knew her, but he didn't embarrass her, and said directly: "Miss Lin, the princess hasn't woken up yet, why don't you come back tomorrow?" ”600
Lin Qingqing shook his head slightly, and said slowly: "I'll go in and accompany Ah Mian, the prince is not here during this time, I will guard her and rest assured." ”
The guard knew that Lin Qingqing was a very good friend of Su Mian, and this statement was completely fine, so he let her in.
And Gong Qianxue didn't go back to the academy, but went to Gong Yuming's temporary residence, and there were some things she wanted to discuss with the other party.
The carriage stopped outside the courtyard, Gong Qianxue got out of the car, and instructed Lianxin: "You stay outside, I'll come out soon." ”
It's just a matter of saying two words, after being successfully tracked and eavesdropped by Lin Qingqing last time, Gong Qianxue was much more cautious.
Gong Qianxue pushed open the courtyard door and walked in, and just walked to the door of the room, but heard the sound of conversation inside.
Liu Ce's voice revealed a strong sense of pride and fearlessness, and he said proudly: "I'm sure Gu Zhixing must be dead, and there is news from my side in Songyan that Gu Zhixing's subordinates have been staying in the inn with Song Yi, and there is a coffin inside, which is guarded day and night, and they attach great importance to it, if it weren't for Gu Zhixing, who would let them be so careful?" ”
This voice Gong Qianxue was slightly familiar when she heard it, but she couldn't tell who it was, but she probably didn't expect someone to come outside, and their voices were not deliberately lowered, so Gong Qianxue listened to these words word for word.
The hand she had raised to knock on the door retracted, and her face quickly turned white after a blank space and almost confused relief.
Gong Qianxue subconsciously stood at the door with bated breath, and heard Gong Yuming's familiar voice: "It's good to be sure, our plan must be foolproof, even if he is lucky enough not to die, this palace will let him die on the way back." ”
Gong Qianxue couldn't stand up at all now, all the strength in her body seemed to be drained by this sentence, her legs were so weak that she almost stumbled, her face was empty and pale, and her eyes were dead and misty.
She only felt like a breath was stuck in her throat, so nervous that she couldn't make a sound, and she couldn't even control her body.
At the moment when she was about to push the door in and question, Gong Qianxue suddenly remembered what Gong Yuming said last time: "If you affect the plan at this time because of your children's private affairs and your own selfish desires, you know the consequences." ”
In just a second or two, Gong Qianxue quickly retracted her hand, turned around and ran towards the door.
Nan Xing heard the movement outside, chased out, and saw the back of Gong Qianxue stepping out of the threshold of the courtyard door, and said to Gong Yu in the room: "It's the third princess." ”
Gong Yuming's brows relaxed slightly, and she said, "It's okay, she doesn't dare to set off any waves, don't take it to heart." ”
This was obviously said to Liu Ce, Liu Ce was really relieved, patted his chest slightly, and gasped: "That's good, now is the most critical time, don't be sloppy, we have met too often in the past two days, if you want me to see, we still don't contact each other." ”
Gong Yuming had no objections, nodded and said, "Okay, then let's do this today, Nan Xing, send Lord Liu back." ”
Gong Qianxue ran out with a word, got into the carriage in a panic, covered her chest and felt that her heart was about to jump out, and her face was terrifyingly pale.
This appearance startled Lianxin, and she asked worriedly: "Princess, what's wrong?" ”
"Let's go, let's go." Gong Qianxue clutched her chest and gasped deeply, shocked.
Lianxin urged the coachman to leave quickly, and then quickly got into the carriage, looking at Gong Qianxue's demeanor, she was even more worried, and said in surprise: "Princess, did you see something, or did you hear something, aren't you going to see Your Highness?" See? ”
Gong Qianxue exhaled deeply, and then she was relieved, but she didn't respond to Lianxin's question, but said directly: "Lianxin, maybe those rumors before are really not groundless, Su Mian must also know about it, let's go to the palace again, I have to confirm with her again." ”
Gong Yuming and that person both said that Gu Zhixing was dead, Gong Qianxue felt shocked and frightened, but after reacting, she didn't want to believe it.
If anyone has the most right to know about the truth of this matter, it must be Su Mian.
Lianxin suddenly became even more confused, and was embarrassed: "But princess, we just came over there, and they won't let us in." ”
Gong Qianxue squinted her eyes slightly, and at this time, she remembered that Lin Qingqing was coming, and said meaningfully: "We can't get in, someone can go in, go to Lin Qingqing, and let her come to the palace immediately." ”
The carriage stopped on the side of the road, and it didn't take long for Lianxin to jump off and walk in the direction of the Lin Mansion, and the carriage went to the direction of the palace again.
