40. Surrender
Just when Honghe was about to kick Baiyi, he heard the door open with a "pass", and then there was a loud shout: "Stop." ”
Honghe was taken aback, and Bai Yi immediately gathered all her strength when she was surprised, and she avoided this kick. Honghe turned his head sharply and saw that the room was full of guards, so he couldn't help but look back at Bai Yi again, and said without giving up: "You have colluded with the East Palace, how did you collude with the East Palace?" ”
Mao Ruhai and the two guards came over, and grabbed the red lotus with a small grapple, and the red lotus flashed twice, although he avoided the attack of the three, but he knew that the general trend had gone. She looked like she was crazy, and she tried her best, and for a while, Mao Ruhai and the three of them couldn't help her. Seeing this scene, three guards jumped in again, and the six of them surrounded the red lotus and stared at her fiercely.
The red lotus hair was scattered, and his face was full of regret: "It's not a pity for me to die today, but it's a pity that I missed the master's big event." After finishing speaking, he slapped his palm towards his heart, shattering the meridians, spitting out a mouthful of blood, and dying of exhaustion.
Qin Ji walked out from behind the guards and said to the white clothes in the corner, "Holy Maiden, the prince is invited." ”
Dressed in white, he slowly stood up from the corner and said to Qin Ji, "There is Gonggong Lao." ”
It turned out that before Bai Yi fell asleep last night, she felt a wisp of fragrance into her nostrils, and then she felt drowsy, she suddenly felt abnormal, and quickly held her breath, she had no internal strength, no different from ordinary people, she only felt groggy and weak, just in the room where she seemed to be asleep, she heard the red lotus call the name of "red maple" in a low voice, and in a trance she heard the red lotus say proudly: "It's a pity that the holy daughter of the Red Lotus Sect is so vulnerable." Then there was the sound of the door opening, and Honghe carried Hongfeng out, not knowing what to do. After a long while, Bai Yi felt that her head could be raised, and she heard a knock on the door, and the red lotus flashed back to the house, and she quickly made a sleeping appearance. On the second day, the three of them found that Hongfeng was missing, she knew that Honghe regarded Hongfeng as herself, but she didn't know whether Hongfeng was alive or dead, but she was shocked in her heart, and later saw Hongfeng's body in Moon Lake, how could she not have imagined that someone had known that she had infiltrated the palace and wanted to put herself to death. When the three of them were taken away by the guards, Bai Yi immediately made a decision and told the guards to see the prince. It's just that the prince couldn't see it so easily, and the guards just reported the matter to Qin Ji. When Bai Yi saw Qin Ji, he confessed his identity and told Qin Ji about last night. Qin Ji was half-convinced at the moment, and at this time, Xiao Bianzi told the red maple about breaking the vase, and Qin Ji pushed the boat down the river and decided the matter to paralyze the red lotus, and secretly made a plan with the white clothes, so that the white clothes led the red lotus to tell the red lotus about last night. Now Qin Ji saw that Honghe killed himself, and he couldn't help but be a little afraid, he thought that the East Palace was like an iron bucket, but he didn't expect that among the four palace maids, two of them were mixed in, and after the matter was over, he would have to sort it out carefully.
In the study of Yuqing Palace, Zhu Youzhu was sitting straight, the candle flame jumped, his face was cloudy, he didn't know what he was thinking, four guards stood in front of him, and separated the white clothes from a distance.
The white clothes gently wrapped up the salute, Zhu Youzhu saw that she had a generous attitude and extraordinary temperament, knowing that her face must have been disguised, and she did not break it, so she asked lightly: "The White Lotus Sect has made rebellion and instigated the people to rebel, which has always been incompatible with the court and the court. What does the Red Lotus Sect do? Can it be related to the White Lotus Sect? ”
Bai Yi replied in a deep voice: "The Red Lotus Sect and the White Lotus Sect are only similar in name, and the two are not related, the Red Lotus Sect only came to the capital in the past two years, and it only teaches people to be good, and they do not dare to participate in political affairs." ”
Zhu Youzhu asked again: "What are your intentions when you infiltrate the East Palace as a Holy Maiden of the Red Lotus Sect?" ”
Bai Yi hesitated for a moment, and then said slowly: "It's really because the Red Lotus Sect has encountered a major event, a month ago, someone found the Red Lotus Sect, saying that the current emperor is incompetent, the prince is weak, if the Red Lotus Sect can help him get up, he will definitely take the Red Lotus Sect as the state religion after the fact." ”
Zhu Youzhu didn't wait for her to finish, and shouted loudly: "Who is that person?" ”
Bai Yi replied: "It's just that it's from the palace, and I don't have more details." Originally, the Red Lotus Sect didn't dare to believe it, but the few things mentioned, that person did it one by one, and the Red Lotus Sect didn't dare not believe it. ”
Zhu Youzhu asked again: "What does this matter have to do with your infiltration into the East Palace?" ”
There was no trace of panic in the white cloth's voice: "That person said that the prince was weak, but the Red Lotus Sect did not dare to be gullible, so he sent the white clothes to sneak into the East Palace. ”
Zhu Youzhu continued: "If I am incompetent and mediocre, you will definitely help him." ”
Bai Yi hurriedly shook his head: "Don't dare." ”
Zhu Youzhu sneered: "You dare to sneak into the East Palace, why don't you dare?" After a moment's pause, he asked, "In your opinion, how am I a human being?" ”
Bai Yi's voice was full of appreciation: "The prince was born in a difficult situation and has gone through many hardships, but he is open-minded and cares about the people of the world, and Bai Yi admires him deeply, so he dares to be violent and confess this matter to the prince." ”
Zhu Youzhu snorted coldly, there was no sadness or joy on his face, there was silence in the room, only the candle flame "snapped" and burst a flower, and after a while, Zhu Youzhu said: "I also know that someone is about to move, but I don't know what means this person has, and now he has found the Red Lotus Sect, which shows that his skills are quite large." The Holy Maiden of the Red Lotus Sect is in white clothes, who is in charge of your sect? ”
Bai Yi bowed down and replied, "Red Lotus Sect Holy Aunt." ”
Zhu Youzhu said again: "You go back and tell your holy aunt, follow the vine to find out the mastermind behind it, I don't blame the past." ”
He spoke calmly, like a young man of seventeen or eighteen, Bai Yi thought to himself: If the Red Lotus Sect is an enemy of the crown prince, it is a way to kill himself. I have made up my mind, and immediately bow my head and say yes.
Zhu Youzhu instructed again: "Now give me a jade pendant, you can come to see me with this thing." ”
Qin Ji immediately presented a piece of jade pendant, and the white clothes were in his hand, and he was surprised and happy in his heart, he only felt that Zhu Youzhu was benevolent and heavy, but he didn't expect that the killing decision was so neat, it seems that he made a good choice, and he must talk to the holy aunt after he goes back. Bai Yi gave a deep salute: "The prince is wise, and Bai Yi will convey what the prince said to the holy aunt." ”
Zhu Youzhu waved his hand, several guards went down with white clothes, and only Qin Ji was left standing on the side in the room, he pondered for a while, as if talking to himself, and as if asking Qin Ji: "Who is delusional about colluding with the Red Lotus Sect?" What is the intention? Who is behind this? Liang Fang or Wan Xi, or someone else? ”
Qin Ji said softly on the side: "Prince, no matter who it is, if you have any conspiracy, you are just a praying mantis blocking your arm, and you can't do anything about it. ”
Zhu Youzhu nodded and said: "Yes, Concubine Wan was here at the time, and I couldn't help me, but now that Concubine Wan is gone, those villains are even more powerless to return to the sky." He said in a deep voice: "Send someone to keep an eye on Liang Fang Wanxi, and report to me immediately if there is any change." ”
Qin Ji immediately said yes.
