East Palace.

Zheng Guanyin sat in the warm hall and looked at the missing carvings from time to time.

After waiting for a long time and not waiting for news, Zheng Guanyin instructed Lan Rong: "Go and see if Caiyue has returned." ”

"Yes."

Lan Rong immediately walked outside.

It didn't take long for Lan Rong and Caiyue to walk in together.

"Crown Princess, no, Princess Jinyang was taken away by Concubine De." Lan Rong was a little flustered.

Concubine De and Princess Jinyang have always been at odds with each other, and it will definitely be nothing good for her to take Princess Jinyang away.

Zheng Guanyin's face changed: "What's the matter?" ”

With a "poof", Caiyue knelt on the ground: "The slave originally picked up Princess Jinyang outside the Ningxiang Pavilion according to His Royal Highness's instructions and brought her back to the East Palace.

"But when I was about to arrive at the Tongxun Gate, the slave ran into Concubine De, and Concubine De said that she was about to come to the East Palace to visit you, let me give Princess Jinyang to her, and she brought Princess Jinyang to see you......"

Lan Rong continued: "Crown Princess, the slave asked, Concubine De did not enter the East Palace, she took Princess Jinyang away." ”

"The slave was ineffective, he believed Concubine De, and asked the princess to surrender." Caiyue kowtows and asks for sin.

Zheng Guanyin couldn't help but scolded: "This Concubine De, I really don't know what to do, she dares to snatch someone from me." ”

After scolding a few words, Zheng Guanyin reprimanded Caiyue again: "You too, if you are so unreliable, won't you come in with Concubine De?" ”

Caiyue's face was full of shame: "The slave is stupid, please calm the princess's anger." ”

"You ......" Zheng Guanyin was angry, but she knew that now was not the time to punish people.

So, Zheng Guanyin instructed Lan Rong: "You go to Concubine De's palace immediately and bring Princess Jinyang back." ”

"Yes." Lan Rong immediately led people to set off.

However, after a while, Lan Rong came back and brought bad news: "Crown Princess, it's not good, Commander Ding led people to block all the palace gates of the East Palace. ”

"What?" Zheng Guanyin stood up in surprise and hurriedly walked out.

When Zheng Guanyin arrived at the main hall, Shan Xiongxin and Xue Wanche were reporting to Li Jiancheng.

“...... Fortunately, Feng Shangshu informed us in time, so that we could rush back in time, otherwise we would have been caught by Commander Ding if we were one step too late. Thinking of what happened just now, Xue Wanche had palpitations.

Shan Xiongxin said: "Your Highness, Feng Shangshu told me that King Qin had long known that you were going to assassinate him today, and he also arranged for someone to report this matter to His Majesty and lead His Majesty to Ningxiang Pavilion.

"And the King of Qin also hid the evidence against you in the Ning Xiang Pavilion......"

"What?" Zheng Guanyin couldn't stand anymore and walked in.

Shan Xiongxin and the others hurriedly saluted: "I've seen the crown princess." ”

Li Jiancheng frowned slightly, but did not ask the reason, but asked Shan Xiongxin: "Feng Shangshu said that King Qin hid evidence in Ningxiang Pavilion, can you go and find it?" ”

"Found." Shan Xiongxin took out something from his arms and put it in front of Li Jiancheng: "This is what we found out from Ningxiang Pavilion. ”

East Palace waist card, a jade wrench.

Zheng Guanyin picked up the jade wrench and looked at it: "Isn't this the jade wrench you lost some time ago, Your Highness?" ”

Li Jiancheng's face was ugly at the moment, if these two things were found, he would explain again, and his father would not believe him.

Fortunately, Feng Deyi arrived in time......

"Have you looked carefully? Is there anything else? Li Jiancheng asked.

Xue Wanche replied: "We searched very carefully, and the evidence left by King Qin is here. ”

Shan Xiongxin: "Your Highness, rest assured, there are no clues left in the Ning Xiang Pavilion pointing to the East Palace." ”

"Those assassins...... Is it true that there will be no confession to His Highness? Zheng Guanyin said worriedly: "Commander Ding has already led people to block all the palace gates of the East Palace, and it seems that His Majesty has already known the news of King Qin's assassination."

"And, Your Majesty is suspicious of Your Highness."

Just now I heard that Li Shimin left evidence in Ningxiang Pavilion, Li Jiancheng was still very worried that the matter would be revealed, but after listening to the assurances of Shan Xiongxin and Xue Wanche, he was not worried at all.

"It's normal for Your Majesty to suspect me after knowing the news, but you don't have to worry, as long as there is no evidence, Your Majesty won't do anything to me."

Although things were not what he expected, there was no bad news.

Li Jiancheng said to everyone: "Your Majesty will definitely send someone to ask you later, don't be nervous, just like usual, don't show your flaws." ”

"Yes, Your Highness."

Li Jiancheng asked again: "How is Li Shimin?" Dead? ”

"Before we left, King Qin was already injured, and he is estimated to have been killed at this time." Shan Xiongxin raised the corners of his lips and said confidently: "There are only three people in King Qin, there are so many of us, and each of us is a master, we will definitely be able to kill him." ”

Hearing this, Li Jiancheng smiled.

However, the next moment, Zheng Guanyin's words made him unable to laugh.

"By the way, Your Highness, Princess Jinyang was taken away by Concubine De."

Li Jiancheng's smile instantly froze, and he said angrily: "What's the matter? ”

Shan Xiongxin immediately cleared up the relationship: "Your Highness, we pretended to have a few tricks with Princess Jinyang according to the plan, and then we knocked her out and handed her over to Caiyue." ”

Seeing Li Jiancheng come over, Zheng Guanyin was a little embarrassed, she lowered her eyes slightly, and said the matter again.

"Didn't you say that Caiyue is strong in martial arts and very reliable? How can you still make such a mistake? Li Jiancheng couldn't help but sarcastically mock Zheng Guanyin.

Zheng Guanyin lowered her head, her face turned red all of a sudden, she gritted her teeth and said, "Your Highness is angry." ”

Shan Xiongxin and the others also lowered their heads, trying to reduce their sense of existence.

Li Jiancheng glanced at Shan Xiongxin and the others, suppressed the anger in his heart, and then said to Zheng Guanyin: "You don't have to meddle in this matter, go back first."

"Remember, take care of your people and don't say anything you shouldn't say."

Zheng Guanyin said respectfully: "Yes, Your Highness." ”

After speaking, Zheng Guanyin walked out.

However, when Zheng Guanyin passed by Shan Xiongxin, she suddenly stopped and took a deep breath.

She looked at Shan Xiongxin's waist, which was empty, and frowned: "What kind of fragrance do you have?" ”

Shan Xiongxin froze, why did the crown princess ask this question?

For some reason, Shan Xiongxin suddenly stammered: "I...... I...... ...... on the body No...... Fragrance. ”

Some just smell of sweat and blood.

Zheng Guanyin shook his head: "No, you have a strange fragrance on you, I have never smelled it." ”

Li Jiancheng's face changed, he realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly walked to Shan Xiongxin's side, leaned over and sniffed it.

The crown prince suddenly approached him, and Shan Xiongxin's whole body stiffened, and he didn't dare to move.

"That's right, you have a weird scent on you, and I haven't smelled it either." Li Jiancheng affirmed Zheng Guanyin's discovery.

At this time, Wei Zheng walked in from outside and said to Li Jiancheng: "The fragrance on General Shan's body must have been made by King Qin, and the fragrance must be eliminated immediately, otherwise His Majesty will know about it, and we will be finished." ”

The faces of the people turned pale.

Li Jiancheng walked to Xue Wanche's side again and took a deep breath: "You also have it on you." ”

Then, Li Jiancheng ordered: "Those who have been to Ningxiang Pavilion just now, go to bathe and change clothes immediately, hurry up." ”

Shan Xiongxin and the others left the main hall in a hurry.

Wei Zheng said again: "Your Highness, the plan was leaked, but it allowed King Qin to seize the opportunity, if it weren't for the Feng Shangshu, the consequences would be unimaginable."

"There must be a spy of King Qin in this East Palace, otherwise he would never know about our plan......"
