As soon as it got dark, Wei Yanran dressed as a man and followed Gu Chengyu out.

Her purpose is very simple, to infiltrate the Five Princes' Mansion and see if she can find out about Liufeng Country and relieve Qin Yenan.

It's just that before nightfall, the door of the five princes' mansions has been closed.

Is this a closed-door visitor?

Gu Chengyu got off the horse and slammed the door with doubts, and a small guy came.

"The twelve princes atone for their sins, but my master is not doing well recently."

The little guy who opened the door admitted his mistake vigorously, but he didn't say a word about the reason why the door was closed, and even urged Gu Chengyu to go back early before it was dark.

"Where is my royal brother?"

Before Gu Chengyu could finish asking, the fifth prince ran over drunkenly holding a fan.

"Didn't I tell you to close the door? It's good or bad to toss in our own house, what if Qingqing comes back in a while? ”

Wei Yanran followed Gu Chengyu and stood and peeked.

The five princes have become unshaven and in a trance after only a few days of hard work, what is the article here?

"Why does the royal brother drink alcohol during the day for no reason? The royal brother has never been in this situation before, what has happened these days! ”

The little guy is just a gatekeeper, how can he see the prince making power, when he saw Gu Chengyu with such a look and tone, he was so frightened that he knelt directly on the ground to admit his mistake.

"The Twelve Princes Mingjian, there have been a lot of strange things in the house recently, the master said that he was born as a human being but is so incompetent, presumably the five princesses returned to the house in the sky, and the housekeeper said that he would not find some people to come to the house to see, but the master just refused, and he could only drink and have fun all day long."

The five princes are not reused, and the concubine is not a favorite concubine in the palace, and she doesn't even have any momentum with the subordinates in the palace.

After hearing this, the drunken Fifth Prince came to Gu Chengyu's side when he heard this.

"Twelfth brother? Is that you, the twelfth brother? ”

Wei Yanran smelled the smell of wine and just wanted to retreat, but who knew that the fifth prince actually hugged Gu Chengyu.

"Twelfth brother, the life of the imperial brother is so miserable, do you know how incompetent I should be as a man!"

A bunch of people cried all the way to the hall along the five princes.

From the conversation between the fifth prince and Gu Chengyu, Wei Yanran knew that she had come to the right place today.

Because the five princes said that in the past, Zhan Qingqing liked to listen to the sound of the Qiang flute, but it was interrupted for five days since the day Zhan Qingqing fell into a coma, and the sound of the Qiang flute came again four days ago.

Not only the five princes, but also the people in the entire mansion heard it clearly.

Zhan Qingqing died in prison in front of Wei Yanran and Gu Chengyuan, and Wei Yanran never believed in ghosts and gods.

After she exchanged glances with Gu Chengyu in private, Gu Chengyu sent the two out on the pretext of letting her scholar go to the study of the fifth prince to look for a copybook.

When Wei Yanran heard this, she and Lu Xue went straight to the study.

The courtyard where Zhan Qingqing lived before his death was next door to the study of the five princes.

"It's night, be careful."

Wei Yanran lowered her head and walked quickly past the study, stopping when she passed a huge acacia tree in the courtyard.

This acacia tree is growing quite well, and it happens to be in the flowering season, and the tree is full of the fragrance of acacia flowers.

"I've looked for it, no, there is neither a secret compartment nor a secret room in this room, I have searched all the places I can find, but I haven't found anything."

Lu Xue was born as a secret guard, and her ability to say this was enough to prove that there were indeed no clues in this room.

Could it be that the problem is not in the courtyard where Zhan Qingqing lived before his death?

Wei Yanran walked to Zhan Qingqing's usual dressing place and sat down, turned her head to look out of the window, and there was nothing else in her eyes except the acacia tree. Eighth Library

"Lu Xue, go to the roof, go to the opposite roof, if I wave your hand, you will come back."

Lu Xue heard the sound and went out to the roof, but Wei Yanran sat motionless and tilted her head to look out of the window.

In Wei Yanran's image, Zhan Qingqing was only an unfavored princess in the Liufeng Kingdom, and was adopted under the name of the Queen of Liufeng when she was married, in fact, her biological mother is still imprisoned in the palace of the Liufeng King.

came over and kissed only to marry the five princes who were useless, so if Zhan Qingqing wanted to pass on the news to the people of his home country, he would also be very passive.

Wei Yanran just thought for a while, and Lu Xue stood on the roof opposite and beckoned her.

Sure enough, the angle from this position is just right.

Wei Yanran beckoned Lu Xue to come down, and she was about to go out to have a look, but as soon as she stepped out of the room, she bumped into an old woman who had been in the house for many years.

"You are the people of the Twelve Princes? The master has instructed that the princess should not touch anything during her lifetime, what are you doing here? ”

Wei Yanran didn't expect to be so unlucky, she could only lower her voice and reply at this moment.

"I've only been on an errand with the Twelve Princes on the third day, and the maid serving tea just now pointed out the way, and I found here, and I have to bother Mama to point out where the Five Princes' study is."

Women are born to lie.

After Wei Yanran said this, she entered the study of the five princes under the guidance of her grandmother, but Lu Xue squatted on the tree helplessly because of this unexpected episode.

It turns out that this tree is the real hidden mystery.

Just when Wei Yanran ran into the study and ran out with a book casually, Lu Xue had just come down from the acacia tree in the courtyard.

"Something wrong with the tree? Can you climb up with me? ”

Wei Yanran and Lu Xue exchanged glances and prepared to go up the tree.

It's just that the tree is too tall, and she stood aside and looked at the top of the tree helplessly.

Lu Xue was silent for a long time and shook her head.

"Since we haven't found any clues, it's better to go back first, it's already completely dark, if there is really any problem, the subordinates don't dare to say that they must protect the princess and concubine, this matter is already very involved, there is no need to rush for a while,"

Lu Xue's worries are not unreasonable.

Wei Yanran also understood these words, the last time she was here was held to her neck with a dagger by someone from Liufeng Kingdom.

She was afraid, but Qin Yenan didn't have so much time to wait.

The sooner she finds the clues, the less dangerous Qin Yenan on the border will be.

"I don't have to rush, but how long can Yenan wait?"

Wei Yanran began to roll up her sleeves without saying a word, and at this moment, the sound of the Qiang flute in the mouth of the fifth prince came intermittently.

"Concubine Shizi be careful."

Lu Xue looked around vigilantly, but everything around her was quite quiet.

In the main hall, the noise of Gu Chengyu and the five princes also came intermittently.

Except for the intermittent sound of the Qiang flute, there was nothing wrong with the entire palace.

Wei Yanran made a decision after thinking about it.

"Up the tree, quick!"

Now that you've found out about this, you must figure out the problem behind it.

And according to the little servant in the Five Princes' Mansion, this voice will only ring for a short time every day, and since you want to check, you have to go over to check it before the sound disappears.

"Concubine Shizi beware, there is something in the tree!"
