Chapter 308: Secret Calculation
"It's all said, you don't have to say this between friends, otherwise, you will really see each other. Xiuxiu's gentleness made Miao Sangsang feel more and more warm.
The bamboo house in the imperial capital. The wind drives the bamboo leaves, and the "rustling" heart statement is noisy but makes people feel reassured.
Crying You was lying in the corridor outside the bamboo house, the wine jug was rippling back and forth in his hand, his face was slightly red, looking at the bamboo forest in front of him, and a woman's voice suddenly appeared in front of him.
Dressed in fiery red clothes, looking back and smiling, the crying became more and more addicted, and Yoyo called a name: "Hongrao." ”
Slowly, the woman turned around, but it was not Qin Muyao. Crying You suddenly woke up, and the person in front of him was gone, and she muttered to herself: "She doesn't look like you, but she has you everywhere, and her temper and personality are ...... Sometimes, you really can't tell which one is your ......."
"Sect Master. The old man's ugly voice interrupted Weeping's thoughts, and as soon as his hand was released, the white porcelain wine jug fell, and the wine jug was not broken, but the wine spilled out, dyeing his clothes, and Weeping You seemed to be unhappy, or the action just now: "What?"
The man wearing a hat stood on the stone road under the bamboo house, the broken clothes of his subordinates were swaying in the air, and there was a faint stench on his body: "I got the news, Cheng Lianjin's newly promoted side concubine is secretly sending someone to find someone who knows Gu arts." I have already asked the hall under the command of the sect master. ”
"Do you know what she is going to do? Is it to Hongrao, or to Cheng Lianjin?"
"I don't know. The man replied to the truth, looking through the black veil of the hat, he could still vaguely see the figure of the weeping ghost, revealing a little hatred, but he didn't dare to show it, "I may be able to try, go and test it, find it out, and then report to the sect master." ”
"Good. Crying You sat up and gave the man an afterglow, "If you make your own decisions and hurt Hongrao, then you can't imagine the consequences." ”
All the arrogance of the man was beaten back, and he just pinched his arm and wrist without a palm with his hand, and was a little more afraid: "Yes." ”
Night. There's always a lot going on in the shadows.
The news of Qin Muyao's pregnancy has not yet spread, if Qiao'er knows, she doesn't know what the situation will be.
She can't sleep now, Cheng Lianjin knows about today's events, and he doesn't care about her in the slightest.
Hua Yao persuaded a few more words, and Qiao'er scolded her when she was angry, but she could only bear it.
Hua Yao admitted her mistake vigorously, knelt on the ground, Qiao'er remembered that she had taken care of herself for many years, and she was a little reluctant to think about it, and comforted her: "You know my temper." You bear it. ”
Human nature is very strange, if you beat her and scold her every day, and suddenly one day you stop scolding and stop fighting, she will be grateful to you from the bottom of her heart.
Painting Yao is like this now, Qiao'er rewarded her with a few more things, and Painting Yao is only happy. When I got up, I saw an extra letter under the door of the room.
There was no signature on it, and the painting picked it up: "Princess, this is what you dropped?"
"Show me. Qiao'er reached out to take the letter, read the contents, and became excited, "Bring the candle." ”
"Hmm. ”
Qiao'er burned the letter, and asked the painting to put on a black cloak, carry a lantern, bypass the guards who were patrolling the night, and go out through the back door.
No matter where you are, there are always people who love money, and since that's the case, it's not impossible to arrange your own people in the palace.
"Princess, if it is discovered by the princess and princess, this is a ......" Hua Yao's worries are not groundless, Cheng Lianjin doesn't like her in the first place, if she pinched any more handles, what will happen, who can guarantee it.
"What's the matter? You just go with me. "Since Qiao'er has come out, if she is not completely sure, how can she do such a thing.
If you say it again, it will only cause Qiao'er's dissatisfaction, so it's better to follow obediently.
The two came to the alley, and before they had taken a few steps, they were stopped.
"I don't know if Your Excellency is Concubine Yunbian?" In the dark night, I couldn't see where the man was, only heard his voice.
Qiao'er was a little scared, and clutched the hand of the painter tightly. The painting is also bold and protects in front of Qiao'er.
"This is not the agreed place. Qiao'er sighed, looked around, and took the lantern in the hand of the painter.
The man walked out slowly, dressed in black, and his hair became more and more conspicuous. Qiao'er took the lantern to illuminate his person, and he was so shocked that he withdrew his hand.
"Wise people don't speak dark words. The man didn't care about Qiao'er's facial expression, "I don't know who Concubine Yun is going to attack?"
"Aren't you using money to do things, and how can you manage who to do?" Qiao'er endured the fear in her heart, and was dissatisfied with his inquiry.
"If you can't tell me, forgive me for not being able to do anything. The man turned and was about to leave.
"Princess. The painting tugged at Qiao'er's sleeve, this person was hard to find.
"Can you change your memory?" Qiao'er asked out loud as she looked at his back.
"I don't understand enough. The man stood still, but had no intention of turning back.
Qiao'er gritted her teeth, indeed, if you don't use him, then you really don't know where to find someone who knows Gu magic: "Change the memory of King Chu." Let him remember, in his heart, in his head, pretend to be me! It's all my memories with him!"
"Since it's a competition for favor, why don't you just kill Princess Chu?" This time, he turned around, and his tone was a little more playful.
"Because my father-in-law wants her to watch it well, the person she loves has become the only one for others. I also want her to feel the feeling of being snubbed and abandoned by the King of Chu. Qiao'er grinned, and the hatred in her eyes could be felt in the cold air, "Since they love each other so much, this princess will let her not love." How can there be so many concubines in the world, but no one uses means. ”
"Concubine Yun is not afraid, this will hurt the King of Chu?"
"What if it hurts? Oh, what Princess Ben wants now is to see how the two of them look like they are worse than dead. The more Qiao'er spoke, the more energetic she became, as if she had forgotten that she was just a businessman in front of her, and since she could do business with her, it was the same with others.
"Concubine Yunfang, wait for my news. With that, the man disappeared into the night.
Qiao'er only then thought of the seriousness of the matter, if he revealed it, what would happen to herself, she didn't dare to think about it, but pretended to be calm: "Let's go back." ”
"Yes. ”
Qi Qing has always been confident in her appearance, Concubine Long asked her to come, just because she is a little like Qin Muyao, just this matter, thinking about it carefully, you know that Cheng's feelings for Qin Muyao are not ordinary.
In this way, she might as well make good use of her looks, and the eldest prince is a candidate for the future prince, if she succeeds, she may become a concubine.
At that time, why should he be instructed by others to be someone else's maid, and he will become his own master.
Since Concubine Long asked her to be a spy, it is better to coax Cheng Wei and help him in turn, and when he becomes the prince, he will become a hero, and he is afraid that he will treat him badly?
And how much can Concubine Long believe what she said to herself? Her heart is ruthless, and she knows that when the time comes, she will kill herself in order not to leave a handle.
No! Qi Qing looked at the pearl hairpin in his hand and made up his mind, this time no matter what, he must give himself a hand. Qi Qing believes that with his own means, he can be around Concubine Long and Cheng Wei, since they all want to use themselves, why can't they use them?
"Sister. At this time, the new little palace maid in the imperial garden came over, took off the hairpin on her head and showed off to Qi Qing, "Do you think this hairpin looks good?"
When Qi Qing saw the hairpin, his brows furrowed together, and his eyes were more asked: "Where did it come from?"
"I picked it up in the garden when I was repairing it today. The little palace maid carefully stroked the hairpin, "I don't know who dropped it, it's so good-looking, it would be nice if it was mine." ”
"Give it to me. Qi Qing stood up and took the hairpin, "I don't know if the noble man dropped it." Someone must be looking for it in the garden now. You are right here, if you want a hairpin, I have it here, you can pick one yourself. ”
The little palace maid clapped her hands happily, jumped up and down to her dresser, and couldn't hide the envy in her eyes: "Really, they're all so beautiful, where did you get them?"
"Ask so much what are you doing? Pick one yourself, or I'll regret it." Qi Qing was still a little distressed, but when he thought that there would be more and better in the future, he was relieved.
"Then you're welcome. The little palace maid was not greedy, she only took the most worthless one, and went out happily.
Qi Qing followed, and the hairpin picked up by the little palace maid was Concubine Long's, and she recognized it at first glance, this is Concubine Long calling herself to report the progress.
It's okay, it's time to cast the net slowly, otherwise when the time comes, you won't know how to collect it, and if you're not careful, you'll hurt yourself.
"Slave maid see Niangniang. "When Qi Qing came to the specified place, there were only Concubine Long and Chunrong.
"Get up. Concubine Long's grace and luxury really made people dare not despise her, "How's it going?"
"The eldest prince has begun to trust the slaves. Qi Qing got up and saw that Concubine Long's eyes were full of loyal ministers, "I have seen the king of Chu yesterday, the status of the slave is humble, and she cannot be on the left side of the eldest prince and the king of Chu, and the anger on the face of the king of Chu is obvious when he leaves." Presumably, the eldest prince has already told the king of Chu about Concubine Lan. ”
"Good. Concubine Long's eyes were sharp, for so many years, when she thought of Concubine Lan, she always felt an inexplicable jealousy, "Next, we must slowly lead the eldest prince and the king of Chu into the set." Concubine Lan's affairs are inseparable from the queen, how to tell the eldest prince, you should know. ”
"Although the slave and maid are dull, but the slave and maid will naturally do their best to help the things that the mother explains. ”
"Good. It's just that Tang'er, if you dare to reveal half a sentence, you don't have to live anymore. "Concubine Long mentioned Cheng Tang, her whole temperament has changed, if Cheng Tang knows that she is secretly manipulating, with his temper, I don't know what will happen, and it will be really difficult to deal with Cheng Lianjin when the time comes.
"Yes. Qi Qing was so frightened that he knelt down, looked at Concubine Long affectionately, to show his loyalty, "The master of the slave is Concubine Long, what the mother says, the slave and the maid will do, and the slave and the maid will look at the head of the mother." ”
"After coming out for so long, you should go back too. Concubine Long lowered her eyes and twisted her fingers, she already had a plan for something in her heart. glanced at Qi Qing, who had retreated, and there was no extra emotion.
"Niangniang, do you really want to deal with the King of Chu?" Chunrong was a little unbearable after all, she was sixteen years old when she served Concubine Long, Cheng Lianjin and Cheng Tang were ten years old, after more than ten years, she saw the growth of the two in her eyes, and regarded the two as younger brothers to serve.
"The only one who can do that position can only be the son of this palace. Concubine Long was a little more ruthless, and looked at Chunrong dissatisfied, "He has always been the son of that slut, you say, how should this palace choose?"
