Chapter 13: Suspicion
"Don't, don't...... Who are you? Don't, don't...... Be careful. ”
Qi Yanran woke up from her dream, yes, she had a dream just now, the first time she had a dream in so long, and it was a not very good dream.
Before dawn, the room could only faintly see the reflection of some leaves outside the window, Qi Yanran put her chin on her knees, reached out and touched her forehead, the dream just now made her forehead sweat fine.
To this day, her heart is still beating irregularly, and the scene in her dream makes her dare not think about it.
But it's so real, like it's happening, there's no way not to care, the plot in the dream is completely different from the one in the book.
Could it be that because of her existence, it has affected the direction of things?
In the dream, the same day, the same place, the only difference is that this time the object has changed, it is Xiao Xuqing.
A group of assassins dressed in night suits, they appeared at the kilometer without warning, and from the moment they appeared, the target was Xiao Xuqing.
Before the assassin attacked, Qi Yanran had already taken Xiao Xuqing to the location she had originally chosen, so she searched for the assassin in the palace to no avail, and began to search every corner of the palace.
And Qi Yanran didn't have time to let herself and Xiao Xuqing escape unharmed, and she was already caught up by a group of people who came by order.
Even if Xiao Xuqing can deal with it easily, it is only when he is alone, and at this time, with Qi Yanran needing to take care of it, it is inevitable that he will take care of one or the other, so he let the other party take advantage of the loophole.
Just when the sword was about to pass through Xiao Xuqing, Qi Yanran helped him block it, and also stopped his own little life.
She opened her eyes in horror, and faintly felt that there seemed to be pain in her chest, but the time and place were not right, could it be ...... Is this a hint?
After waking up, Qi Yanran even joined the Fa and fell asleep, she couldn't figure it out, how could she have such a dream for no reason? If, if that's a hint, then how should she keep it from happening?
Go directly to tell Xiao Xuqing? Unrealistic, based on Qi Yanran's words alone, Xiao Xuqing can't believe it and find out who is behind the scenes? This is only a dream, there are no clues, where to look?
What's more, inside and outside the DPRK and China, in the struggle for power, it is unknown who has a grudge against her grandfather, and she cannot get out of the behind-the-scenes.
The only thing that can have a motive is probably to move Xiao Xuqing, who will benefit the most, or who will have direct or indirect benefits?
The crown prince is only undecided, there are not a few heirs of the lord today, just looking at the ability and power in the court, there are seven people, each of which Qi Yanran does not understand, and there is no way to point to anyone.
So...... In addition to rights, there are only women left, Xiao Xuqing loves Fu Pinyun, and also likes Fu Pinyun's ...... Yes! Is it the Prince of Anguo?
Thinking of it, Qi Yanran found that she didn't dare to continue to think about it, if it was really Fu Pinyun's line, then the other party's target would probably be the entire Yunzhou.
In this way, Xiao Xuqing is likely to become the victim of temptation.
Regardless of whether Qi Yanran thinks correctly or not, she believes that she needs to find an opportunity to remind her father that this kind of thing is related to social affairs and cannot be played.
Also, she needs to have frequent contact with Prince Anguo, perhaps...... You can set out a half-star message.
The sky slowly brightened, and Qi Yanran found that she had wasted two hours of sleep time, and if she didn't rest, tomorrow would be another day of national treasures.
When I woke up again, it was almost noon, and my father had explained it, so no one came to disturb Qi Yanran's rest.
After Qi Yanran eased down, she lifted the quilt, got out of bed, and after some rest, she was much more energetic in the mirror than yesterday.
At this time, someone knocked on Qi Yanran's door, at this point, it should be Caiyue who sent lunch to her room.
"Miss, are you awake?"
Qi Yanran opened the door from the inside, and Cai Yue excitedly crossed the threshold of the room, holding a tray in her hand, which was indeed lunch.
"Is my father back?"
My father usually goes home at lunchtime.
"Well, I'm back, these are all sent by adults to me, Miss, eat quickly."
"Okay, I didn't go to breakfast today, but what's the matter?"
Qi Yanran asked Caiyue about the morning over and over again, and ate the meals specially prepared for her.
"Hmm...... It's nothing, Miss Biao didn't go to breakfast in the morning, so the slave maid couldn't hear their gossip, oh, by the way, Prince Anguo is here, and now he is in the front hall, and the adults are accompanying him, Miss, the Prince of Anguo is also strange, why do you like to run to Xiangguo's mansion, if he says that he likes Miss Biao, why don't you just ask the lord of the country for a marriage, how much trouble is it......"
Cai Yue's eyebrows fluttered and talked about Prince Anguo, and Qi Yanran seemed to be wary of this seemingly easy-going Prince Anguo since the dream last night.
He came to Xiangguofu today, he must have his own plans, and it is possible that from the beginning, he did not come for Pinyun.
Qi Yanran's movements of picking up vegetables became slow, and she could see that she was hesitating, and the chopsticks and eggplants stayed in her mouth for a few seconds, and there was no follow-up.
Qi Yanran put down the dishes and chopsticks in her hand, got up and walked out quickly.
"Hey, miss, you haven't finished eating yet."
Cai Yue reminded Qi Yanran behind her, but now Qi Yanran was thinking about more important things in her mind and had no time to take care of them.
When Qi Yanran appeared in the front hall, she saw her father playing chess with Prince Anguo, Qi Yanran slowed down and walked to her father's side, she observed Prince Anguo's expression attentively, and it seemed that she was very attentive in this game of chess.
At the moment Qi Yanran walked in, he didn't seem to care, and all his attention was on the chessboard.
"Lord Qi, I agreed."
Prince Anguo won in the end, although it was a small win, but Qi Yanran could see that he had the heart to put some water.
"Sure enough, it's still terrifying, it seems that I can't recognize the old anymore."
"Father."
When the two of them were playing chess just now, Qi Yanran was inconvenient to disturb.
"I've seen Prince Anguo."
Qi Yanran asked for peace without being salty.
"Miss Qi, I haven't seen you for a long time, it seems that ...... It's more moving than before. ”
Qi Yanran glanced at Prince Anguo, but did not answer, she was thinking, this Prince Anguo is not a proton, nor is he the prince of his country, how can he stay in Yunzhou for a long time, and run to the house of the minister of Yunzhou without hesitation? Wouldn't this book be too casual?
However, there is no need to delve into the details, and besides, ...... That's not the point at the moment.
"By the way, Lord Qi, tomorrow is Niangniang's birthday, Miss Qi should attend the birthday banquet with you, right?"
As soon as the words fell, Qi Yanran reflexively looked at Prince Anguo, and it happened that the other party also looked at her intentionally or unintentionally, and for a while, the four looked at each other, and the two were very delicate.
Qi Yanran quickly retracted her gaze, "Tomorrow night, maybe he will really do it." Suddenly, such a thought flashed through Qi Yanran's mind, tomorrow night, she needs some time to think about it.
