"For the next few days, don't show your face, rest at home, and try not to go out if you don't have to, especially the wounds on your faces, but don't let people see them. Remember? ”

Zhang Desheng led Jiang Qiaoqing and Wang Xuan to the palace gate, and did not forget to tell him carefully.

"Yes, yes, the slave knows, the slave knows."

Jiang Qiaoqing nodded resignedly.

"Let's go."

Zhang Desheng waved his hand.

The two immediately got into the carriage and drove out of the palace gate.

Zhang Desheng looked at the carriage, shook his head and said, "It's like, it's so similar!" ”

The little eunuch on the side asked, "Young eunuch, what do you say?" ”

Zhang Desheng immediately glared at the little eunuch and said, "You have so many mouths, sooner or later your life will be lost." ”

The little eunuch was immediately too frightened to speak.

......

on the carriage.

After leaving the palace, Wang Xuan and Jiang Qiaoqing breathed a sigh of relief, and their expressions became cautious.

"Are you alright?"

Jiang Qiaoqing first observed the environment outside the car before asking in a low voice.

Wang Xuan shook her head, just covered half of her face with her hand, and a sneer rose at the corner of her mouth.

Jiang Qiaoqing breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It seems that we have passed this most difficult level." ”

Wang Xuan smiled and said lightly: "It's still too early to say this now, that woman won't stop easily, my battle with her has just begun." As she spoke, she narrowed her eyes and said, "Of course, if she is willing to let me go, this play will not be able to continue." By the way, there doesn't seem to be a curfew tonight? ”

Jiang Qiaoqing was stunned for a moment, and then said: "It seems that yes, the businessman specially chose the finals today, just knowing that those sons and brothers will definitely go to celebrate at night." ”

Wang Xuan said: "After we go back, we will prepare immediately, and we will leave Luoyang overnight tonight and go back to Jinling." ”

Jiang Qiaoqing looked at Wang Xuan in astonishment.

Wang Xuan said thoughtfully: "If we are just ordinary courtesans, we should want to go home at this time, instead of continuing to stay here, which is not logical. ”

Jiang Qiaoqing frowned and said, "But .....!" ”

Wang Xuan didn't wait for her to finish, and said, "Your Majesty will not let us leave easily." ”

Jiang Qiaoqing suddenly realized, but then said worriedly: "But Your Majesty just let you go back, it can be seen that Your Majesty ...... you!" ”

Wang Xuan said: "My intuition will not be wrong, if Your Majesty lets us go so easily, then it will only be a dead end for us to stay here." ”

......

......

"The queen has arrived!"

In fact, before she could shout this "drive", Wu Meiniang had already rushed to Li Zhi's study.

Li Zhi seemed to have expected Wu Meiniang to come, his expression was calm, and he just waved his hand at Zhang Desheng, who immediately led the two maids who were waiting by the side to retreat.

As soon as the door was closed, Wu Meiniang asked, "Did the concubine hear that His Majesty let those two sluts go?" ”

Li Zhi nodded and said, "Yes." ”

Wu Meiniang said excitedly: "This matter has not been investigated clearly, how can Your Majesty let them go?" ”

Li Zhi said: "I have already said that we have recognized the wrong person, and that Hongchen is not Wang Xuan at all." ”

Wu Meiniang snorted coldly: "I don't know how Your Majesty found out?" ”

Li Zhi frowned slightly, he was a little unhappy with Wu Meiniang's tone, but he still endured it and said, "You also know Wang Xuan, do you think that with Wang Xuan's character, he will run to be a courtesan, this is simply impossible." ”

Wu Meiniang said: "Your Majesty, this is clearly a conspiracy!" The concubine had never seen two people so similar in the world. ”

"What conspiracy?" Li Zhi smiled and said, "I think you think too much, then Wang Xuan was burned to death in the palace a long time ago, what you and I saw with our own eyes, is there still a fake?" If you don't believe it, you can send someone to Jinling to investigate, but I think that Hongchen is definitely not Wang Xuan, although the two look very similar, but other than that, there is nothing like it. ”

Wu Meiniang sneered: "Since it's not, then I don't know why Your Majesty is so protective of a courtesan?" If the concubine was going to punish other courtesans today, would Your Majesty still be so nervous? ”

The answer, of course, is no.

But Li Zhi will never admit it, only said: "I will never shield anyone, since she is not Wang Xuan, then she is innocent, even if you are the queen, you can't kill innocents indiscriminately." In addition, I don't blame you for your abuse of lynching of Jiang Qiaoqing, so you don't want to be aggressive anymore. ”

"Your Majesty said that the concubine was aggressive?" Wu Meiniang was very aggrieved and said: "Why did the concubine do so many things, because she was afraid that Your Majesty would be deceived by traitors, and she would regret it when the time came." In short, the concubine will never stop there, and the concubine will definitely find out about this matter. ”

After speaking, Wu Meiniang shook her long sleeves and left angrily.

Li Zhi couldn't help frowning, but then he closed his eyes and sighed, leaned on the couch, his mind was full of pictures of Wang Xuan, and after half a loud sound, he suddenly shouted outside: "Someone!" ”

......

......

This Keju league is run by businessmen, so of course the purpose is not for world peace, but to make money, which is nothing to deny. Therefore, the businessmen put the day of the finals on the day of the no curfew, even if it rains today, the businessmen will postpone it to the next no-curfew day, and will never postpone it until tomorrow, in short, they must squeeze the benefits of this to squeeze out, after all, they spent a lot of money just to invite the red dust to perform on stage.

That night, the whole Luoyang City was brightly lit and lively, and all the wine shops, tea shops, restaurants, and green buildings were all full, and the seats were full.

But only a small part of the talk is about the finals, and most of them talk about Hongchen's performance at halftime, and everyone is talking about it.

It can be seen that Hongchen's performance has completely overshadowed the limelight of the finals, because there are too many amazing places in this performance, everyone knows for the first time that the original dance can still be danced like this, and the plot can also be added to it, and everyone is even more devoted to Hongchen's dancing skills.

Especially with the advent of the sliding step, no one has figured out how this dance is performed until now.

Almost all the gentlemen in Luoyang are concentrated in Huayue Building, everyone is not here to drink flower wine, nor is it here to tease the girls, they sit in the building, and keep shouting "Hongchen", which is even more than those crazy fans in later generations.

Of course, Wang Xuan has never appeared, and the explanation given by Huayuelou is that he is on bed rest today because Hongchen is too tired and cannot appear.

While everyone felt deep regret, they also gave understanding, and instructed the turtle of Huayue Building to take good care of Hongchen.

......

At the third watch, a carriage quietly headed for the south gate at night.

But when he came to the south gate, he was stopped by the Praetorian Guards in front of the gate.

"Official, isn't there no curfew today?"

The groom asked.

I saw a short and fat man walking out from behind the forbidden soldiers, it was Zhang Desheng, he waved his hand first, and the forbidden soldiers immediately took the carriage to the side. Zhang Desheng came to the carriage again and said in a low voice: "Hongchen lady." ”

The curtain was lifted in the corner, and then a nervous voice came from inside, "Why--- why is it--- it's you?" ”

"I don't know where Hongchen Lady is in a hurry so late?" Zhang Desheng asked tepidly.

"Slave is --- is ----!"

"I'm going back to Jinling." Zhang Desheng helped her with the answer, and said: "But has the Hongchen lady ever thought about it, and you can't say anything clearly?" ”

"Slave maid --- slave maid knows that it is wrong, slave maid knows that it is wrong."

"You're not wrong, it's just that you have to stay here for the time being, and you're safe here. Go back, and when this is over, Your Majesty will naturally see you off in person. ”

Zhang Desheng didn't know that Jiang Qiaoqing in the carriage wiped his sweat at this time, and breathed a sigh of relief, if they didn't stop it, this play would not be able to continue.

......

After all, Wang Xuan is the apprentice brought out by Han Yi, and he is the only disciple who entered the room, Wang Xuan at this time is really not the previous Wang Xuan, she can be said to be an old Qian, Lao Qian is specialized in pondering human nature, according to human nature, if it is an ordinary person, at this time must be insecure, when anyone is insecure, they will definitely want to return home, she should go home quickly.

Li Zhi thought of this, and Wu Meiniang naturally thought of this as well.

"Back to the queen, that Hongchen really wanted to go out of the city overnight, but he was stopped by Zhang Desheng in front of the city gate, and now he is back in the house where they live."

A palace lady reported to Wu Mei Niangyu.

Wu Meiniang's face was gloomy when she heard this, and she didn't say a word.

If Wang Xuan didn't leave, she would definitely think that Wang Xuan had a problem, but if Wang Xuan left, as long as she got out of Luoyang City, it would be the dish in her bowl, and the killer had already been ambushed. Of course, she also thought that Li Zhi might send someone, but this is the last thing she wants to see, if Li Zhi really thinks that she is just a courtesan, then she should be allowed to leave, if she sends someone to stop Hongchen, it proves that Li Zhi wants to keep Hongchen.

Wu Meiniang also wanted to use this to test Li Zhi's mind.

Of course, the result was very angry for her.

Seeing that Wu Meiniang's face was gloomy and extremely ugly, and she didn't speak, Yang was also very worried, and quietly waved her hand to that Gong'e.

That Gong'e immediately bowed down and retreated.

Yang sat next to Wu Meiniang and said softly: "Daughter, Weiniang always feels that you are still too impulsive today, which is similar to the usual you, judging the two of you, the difficulties you encountered in the past are much greater than now, but the more difficulties you encounter, the calmer you are, how can you be so impulsive today, and compete with Your Majesty." ”

Wu Meiniang was stunned when she heard this, and said in her heart, what my mother said is that I should calm down at this time.

Thinking of this, her face softened a little, and she carefully sorted out the matter from beginning to end.

However, this is very scary to think about!

Wu Meiniang suddenly slapped the table, slammed it, and frightened Yang, and when she was about to open her mouth to ask, she heard Wu Meiniang exclaim: "Han Yi!" It's Han Ye! ”
