Huining Hall.

Concubine Rong leaned on the top chair in the hall, Tinglan behind her was pinching her shoulders, and Pang Dai was standing below.

Today, Pang Dai also entered the palace. Because the plan she discussed with her aunt was carried out today, she stayed in the Huining Hall and never came out, just waiting for the news to come.

It's just that she waited for a long time and there was no movement, until her aunt returned to the palace, and Tinglan beside her told her that Xie Ying slapped the cat away with one palm, and then was only punished for copying Buddhist scriptures fifty times at her aunt's request.

She was a little annoyed: "I didn't expect that Xie Ying's martial arts skills would be so good, we were careless." ”

Looking at Pang Dai's anxious look, Concubine Rong was very calm, "I have long thought that Xie Ying's martial arts are extraordinary, and it is difficult for a cat to hurt her." ”

Pang Dai was a little puzzled: "Then my aunt also gave the potion to Song Xin and asked her to sprinkle it on Xie Ying?" ”

"I changed the potion a long time ago, and today Song Xin is here, it is good to ruin Song Xin's face and break the power of the prince's side."

Concubine Rong said as she waved her hand to signal Tinglan to go out and watch, she wanted to whisper something to Pang Dai.

"Auntie originally planned to do so, but Auntie, why did you later intercede for Xie Ying?"

This made Pang Dai feel even more confused, shouldn't he fall into the well and suppress Xie Ying at this time?

Concubine Rong looked at her niece's impatient appearance and sighed, the young man was just a little impatient.

"Today, the emperor saw Xie Ying, and he was very satisfied." Concubine Rong remembered that the emperor's stunning gaze when he saw Xie Ying made her very unhappy.

As soon as Pang Dai heard this, he knew that his grandfather and aunt's plan to let the emperor accept Xie Ying as a concubine would definitely succeed, but sooner or later.

After the birthday banquet that day, my grandfather heard her say that Xie Ying was beautiful, so he planned to let the emperor meet Xie Ying and see the emperor's reaction.

Today's emperor loves beauties the most, and the more charming he is, the more he likes it, which is also the reason why my aunt can spoil the harem and even overpower the ordinary-looking queen.

Since the emperor was interested in Xie Ying's mother Xia Jiao back then, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not have the same mind when he sees Xie Ying today.

As long as the emperor is interested, their plan will be half successful.

"Then what we have to do next is to try to catch the handle of the prince, whether it is true or not, what we want is to give the emperor a reason, use his psychology of Xie Ying's ambition to win, and justifiably abolish the prince."

Pang Dai followed her aunt's words and analyzed.

"Yes, in this way, without the crown prince, with the status and means of me and your grandfather, your cousin's third prince will become the crown prince.

Anyway, the emperor doesn't like the queen and the crown prince, so he doesn't care whether the prince's handle is true or not. ”

Concubine Rong nodded in agreement, her eyes were full of approval, the grandchildren of the Pang family only had one granddaughter, Pang Dai, and no grandson.

If this granddaughter is smart and witty, their Pang family can prosper for another generation.

However, there is a question that Pang Dai feels that he should also consider in advance: "Auntie, aren't you afraid that the Xie family will use the power of the Holy Lord to sit big?" ”

Hearing Pang Dai ask this, Concubine Rong was a little happy, which proved that her niece still had some brains.

"I've thought about this question for a long time, don't worry, without the Xie family, a Xie Ying is not to be afraid of."

Concubine Rong disagreed, with her father Pang Guan here, the Xie family would die.

Although Pang Dai didn't understand, she didn't dare to say anything more when she saw that her aunt didn't want to mention it, so she just nodded and stopped talking.

"Today's Song Xin is ruthless, Xie Ying and Zhang Xuan treat her well, but they can't escape her calculations." Concubine Rong mentioned Song Xin with some disdain.

Pang Dai looked at her aunt and echoed: "What my aunt said is that Song Xin is from a humble background after all, how can she know what etiquette, righteousness and shame are." ”

"Well, but that's fine, it's just right for a villain like Song Xin to deal with Xie Ying and the prince." Concubine Rong thought about it and smiled with some satisfaction.

"But auntie, Song Xin will become the prince's concubine in the future, and she will stand on the opposite side of us." Pang Dai didn't understand why her aunt dared to appoint someone like Song Xin.

"What can we do on the opposite side, our enemies are the queen, as well as the crown prince and Xie Ying, she Song Xin is at best a side concubine, isn't it a concubine?" Concubine Rong gave Pang Dai a patient explanation.

"After today, Xie Ying will inevitably turn against her, the two have not entered the East Palace, they will fight first, if there is any contradiction, the prince's reputation will be greatly hit,

When the queen intervenes again, things will be even more chaotic, and as soon as the chaos arises, our opportunity will come. ”

Pang Dai knew in her heart that there was no urgency in this matter, "My aunt still has foresight, and Dai'er will learn from my aunt." ”

Song House.

"Uncle, you don't know, Xie Ying could have avoided that cat today, but she still helped me, a person who will be her enemy in the future." Song Xin's tone was a little anxious.

Not long after she went home, Song She called her to the study and asked her about her entering the palace today.

Looking for Pang Dai before, she went secretly, so naturally she didn't say how the cat pounced, only that the cat pounced on her face.

"Xie Ying is not doing this today to show the queen her intelligence, and at the same time to win your trust."

Song She didn't know that there was Song Xin's calculations in this, but she only felt that this Xie Ying was martial and smart, and it was not simple.

"But later, the queen mother also reprimanded Xie Ying for acting recklessly." Song Xin tried hard to argue that Xie Ying was definitely not that kind of person.

"Xin'er, you think too little, this Xie Ying is quite scheming." Song She is still trying to explain to Song Xin.

"If she doesn't save you, she will inevitably attract the dissatisfaction of the queen and the crown prince.

Because the queen will think that she has long known about your appointment as the crown prince's concubine, so she is jealous and deliberately lets the cat ruin your face, so that there is one less object to fight with. ”

Song Xin listened to Song She's remarks, only lowered her head and stopped talking, what the uncle said made sense.

She couldn't say that she was uncle, but she still insisted that Xie Ying saved her because of sisterhood.

Yasukuni Mansion.

After Xie Ying returned home, she went through what happened today from beginning to end, thinking carefully about what she had done.

What she felt most suspicious about was the surprise of the emperor when he looked at her and the jealousy of Concubine Rong when he looked at her.

The two must have known something related to her, and the queen didn't even know about it.

She had a hunch that Concubine Rong was very likely to use this matter to calculate her and the prince's faction, and she had to figure it out.

After thinking about it, she called Ah Zhen to keep vigil, changed into night clothes, and went to visit Zuo Xiang's Mansion at night to find out if there was any news available.

Left Prime Minister's house.

Although she was here last time, Xie Ying had only stayed in the pear garden, the pond, the Cuiwei Pavilion and the bamboo forest.

Therefore, as soon as she entered the Zuo Xiang's Mansion, Xie Ying avoided the place she had been last time and walked towards the place where she had hosted male guests last time.

Along the way, Xie Ying walked around and walked towards the somewhat bright room.

She found that Zuo Prime Minister Pang Guan and Wenchen, the night patrol at home turned out to be five men with extremely good martial arts.

This made her very curious, could it be that there was something unsightly in the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion? It also needs to be protected by a special person.

After walking back and forth a few times, Xie Ying had a general understanding of the layout of the Zuo Xiang's Mansion and walked towards the courtyard of the Zuo Xiang.

However, she saw a shocking scene.

In the middle of the night, there were several men dressed as martial artists at the door of Pang Guan's room who were keeping vigil.

What's even more incredible is that these men are now all beaten to the ground, hiding in the shadows of the corner, not knowing whether they are alive or dead.

Xie Ying looked up at Pang Guan's courtyard, one of the side rooms was still lit, and through the shadow on the window, she could see a figure sitting, and a graceful woman standing next to her.

According to Xie Ying's guess, this room is a study, and the person sitting should be Pang Guan, and the one standing is obviously polite, it is unlikely to be a concubine, it should be his only granddaughter Pang Dai.

Thinking of this, she was even more confused, the grandfather and grandson were talking, why should the people in the rivers and lakes stay outside?

And who knocked the men to the ground, but the two people in the house did not notice. Besides, if you knock these people down, aren't you afraid that you will be discovered by Pang Guan for a while?

Xie Ying adjusted her breathing and quietly listened to the surrounding environment, and she found that there were people not far in front of her, and there were still two people.

Luckily, Xie Ying looked up in that direction, there was an uncle over there, it was dark and dark, and he couldn't see anything. She guessed that the two were hiding near the tree.

After all, next to the tree were the grandparents and grandchildren who were talking.

Didn't you meet your peers?

This was Xie Ying's first reaction. She hesitated a little, that tree was the best hiding place near Pang Guanzu and his grandson.

It's just that now I don't know whether it's friend or foe hiding on the other side of the tree, and if she rushes forward, it will inevitably cause trouble that she can't meet, and maybe she will alarm Pang Guan and them.

But turning his head to look at the few people lying on the ground in the darkness over there, Xie Ying had an epiphany.

She leaned over now, even if she accidentally clashed with the two people by the tree, what if she alarmed the grandfather and grandson?

Because after a while, when the grandparents and grandchildren come out after talking, they will inevitably see people lying on the ground, and they will not be alarmed by that time.

So sooner or later she will be alarmed, is there anything she needs to add to it?

With this in mind, she quietly moved in the direction of the tree.

There was a man squatting on the tree over there, and he was now looking down at the man standing behind the tree and whispering, "Someone is coming." ”

The man standing looked towards the door, the courtyard door was open, and there were a few corpses lying on the ground in the dark.

Seeing his master looking towards the door, the man on the tree whispered again: "It should be someone like us, she found us." ”

Mu Jue, who was standing under the tree, was stunned, and immediately rejoiced, tonight's Zuo Xiangfu is very lively! Sure enough, it didn't come in vain!

He learned the news tonight that several martial artists dressed in rivers and lakes had entered the back door of Zuo Xiangfu, and he felt that something was strange.

Zuo Xiang was born as a civil servant, how could he be involved with the Jianghu people.

took Ji Bai over quietly, but not long after entering the door, he saw five men with good skills patrolling a team.

He also sneaked into the Zuo Xiang's mansion last month, and there were no people patrolling at night, so what was this Zuo Xiang planning?

When he and Ji Bai arrived at the gate of Zuo Xiangyuan, they found several people from the rivers and lakes guarding the door, and then Pang Guan and his granddaughter Pang Dai chatted in the house.

Just when he was guessing what the two of them would say, Ji Bai suddenly told him that the people dressed in rivers and lakes guarding the door were from Beirong.

He was stunned for a moment, Zuo Xiang would have an intersection with the Beirong people?

Thinking that Ji Bai had gone to the border with the Su family caravan and had seen the Beirong people, he shouldn't be wrong.

So he ordered Ji Bai to eavesdrop on Pang Guan's grandfather's conversation, and he waited at the gate of the courtyard.

Who knew that those Beijung people seemed to be from the secret guards, and soon found his hiding place.

When he was walking in his direction, Ji Bai returned, and in order to save him, he had to knock those Beirong people unconscious.

He looked at a few Beirong people lying on the ground, and understood that he was bound to startle the snake today.

He no longer struggled, and only let Ji Bai drag a few people to the dark, at least avoiding the people who came to patrol.

It's just that later he found that no one has come to this side, and the original nursing homes with good kung fu have not come here, it seems that Pang Guan specially instructed them.

This made him more and more curious about what Pang Guan was going to do today, so he sneaked into the courtyard with Ji Bai under the tree and listened carefully.
