"I know that you treat me as a friend, and I know that it is inappropriate to say this, but in this situation, it is better not to involve you, I am a son of the world, and no matter how much the household officials have to worry about it."

Seventeen rarely didn't refute, only lowered his head, and kept pondering, Yiren saw that his face was unhappy, pursed his lower lip, and looked at Xiao Yu'an, "Although you are the son of the world, I am afraid that it will be difficult for the household department to join hands to cover the sky, and the Houfu will be pulled into the water." ”

"I know, but at the moment this is the only way, although I don't have any real power, but the name of the prince is still noble."

This is at most a comfort, although he is a prince, but he has just returned to Beijing, he has no prestige, and he has no real power in his hands.

Hearing this, Yiren smiled lightly, picked up the tea set in front of him, and said, "Compared with Her Royal Highness the Princess, whose identity is more noble?" ”

The two of them couldn't see the clenched fists of the seventeenth table, and they just felt that something was wrong with him today.

Seventeen controlled the anger in his heart, gritted his teeth, and asked as calmly as possible: "Why does Her Royal Highness the princess care about this matter, she can send someone else to do it, why take the risk herself."

"Because of her noble status, because this is Dayan's business, because she has her responsibilities and responsibilities." Yiren's tone was calm, and he calmly made tea, as if he was saying something very ordinary.

Seventeen said, "Yes."

Something flashed in Xiao Yu'an's mind, so he didn't have time to grasp it, he looked at the strange reactions of these two people, and lowered his eyes.

"Her Royal Highness the princess has not returned to Beijing yet, even if she returns to Beijing, how to involve him in this matter."

Seventeen had returned to normal, buried his head in the teacup, and said casually: "Xiao Shizi has seen Her Royal Highness the Princess?"

"No, it is rumored that Her Royal Highness the princess has never seen the world with her true face."

"Does anyone know when His Highness will return to Beijing?"

"No, I didn't."

"But anyone dares to pretend to be His Highness?"

"This!"

"That is, no one has ever seen His Highness, and no one dares to pretend to be His Highness, so this matter was happened to be bumped into by His Highness, His Highness cares about the people, should he investigate?"

At this point, some things depend on what some people think.

Xiao Yu'an hadn't recovered from the shock just now, Qi Luo hurriedly ran in, and he didn't catch his breath, "The prince is going to save the princess, there is news from the house, the princess arrived in Beijing today and was intercepted and killed." ”

"What!" How could it be such a coincidence.

The situation was urgent, he didn't have time to think so much, he followed Qi Luo out, and he didn't take two steps, but he was stopped.

"Xiao Shizi doesn't have to be in a hurry, it's hard to defeat the crowd with the strength of one person, it's better to go to Jing Zhaoyin first, send enough people, and then it's not too late to rescue, Qi Luo is in a hurry, you can listen to him slowly on the way." The soft voice sounded behind him, causing him to froze, but he didn't look back.

Yiren watched him walk farther and farther away, until his back disappeared in front of him.

"The little lady is not afraid that Xiao Shizi will be late and will not be able to save people." Seventeen lay on the table, his head resting on his head and looking up at her.

Yiren lowered his eyes and said in a low voice: "If you can't save it, you can't save it, the bigger the trouble, the better."

Seventeen's eyes darkened, and then he showed clarity, hooked the pigtails in front of her, and quipped: "If you can't save it, you can't save it, anyway, with me, it won't be saved."

Yiren pulled back the pigtail he was playing with in his hand, and said with a smile: "If you can't get rid of it, then let's go, but you have to take care of it." ”

"Okay, the little lady is dressed well today, and it won't make you feel bad."

Yiren took his outstretched hand, his big palm was wide and had a thin callus, and the man took her by the way, and walked forward in the silent alley.

The wind is very light tonight, the alleys are quiet, the weather is dry, and the people who are on the watch have not yet gone out on the streets, and there will always be people who accidentally knock over the candles.

Xiao Yu'an originally followed Qi Luo back to the house, and on the way, he remembered what Yiren said, so he changed directions and walked towards Jing Zhaoyin, his face was calm, and he asked Qi Luo on the side: "How did the mansion know that the princess arrived in Beijing tonight and was intercepted and killed." ”

Qi Luo didn't know why Gongzi asked this, but he still said seriously: "It was the maid next to Her Royal Highness the princess who came to ask for help." ”

"Maid?"

"Yes, she took the token of Her Royal Highness the Princess, and said that in order to avoid the pursuit of the traitors of the previous dynasty, she secretly entered Beijing tonight, who knows that the news is still leaked out, in order to avoid the pursuit, Her Royal Highness the Princess is now hiding in South Street, and the house has sent someone to investigate, and also gave me the token, asking me to hand it over to the son."

Speaking of this, Qi Luo also reacted, this passage can be said to be full of loopholes, how could the princess return to Beijing without a single entourage by her side, and sent her personal maid to ask for help, why did she give him the token again, and why didn't she directly find the government or personal soldiers to find Xiaohou's mansion.

"Childe, this 。。。。。"

"It's okay, think about what are the characteristics of that maid?"

Qi Luo pondered for a moment, "The maid was not in a hurry at all when she came, her face was covered with a golden veil, she seemed to know that I was the guard next to the prince, and when she saw me, she asked me to inform the princess that she was in trouble, and asked me to inform her quickly. ”

When the maid came, he happened to return home from Jing Zhaoyin, and he didn't have time to think about it, so he ran to the study, wanting to pass a message to his son-in-law, but now that he thinks about it, it's not quite right, why is it so coincidental, just in time for his son-in-law to go out, and it happened to catch him back.

Golden veil, Xiao Yu suddenly remembered Yiren's outfit today, his pupils widened, and he walked quickly towards Jing Zhaoyin, and instructed Qi Luo as he went, "You first send someone to spread the news that Her Royal Highness the princess arrived in Beijing tonight and was intercepted and killed, and make the matter as big as possible, and go to the study house first." Then send people to the county king's mansion, the prince's mansion, and the families of various adults to spread the news of the thief's assassination of the princess, and it must be transmitted to the criminal department, and then hold the token to pass the princess's order, and dispatch the government soldiers to search the whole city and arrest the traitor. Then ask my father to stay in front of the palace gate, wait for the chaos in the city, and immediately enter the palace to tell the emperor, only say that the princess was assassinated, and the thieves entered the city, and don't mention anything else. ”

Qi got the order, hurriedly saluted, turned around and ran back.

Although Xiao Yu'an was calm on his face, his heart was already turbulent, and he guessed in his heart, but he didn't dare to think about it.

And what about him? Did he already know? If she had just put her down in the past, he was now completely dead.

Time didn't allow him to think about it, he carefully calculated everything that happened tonight, and let Xiao Houfu and Jing Zhaoyin be the first to get involved, in order to seize the opportunity and not give the household officials a chance to intervene, and send someone to spread the news, in order to make the situation bigger, as for the transmission to the criminal department, it was completely to add chaos to the household department, in the name of the princess, in order to divert the tiger from the mountain, once the household officials reacted and led the first palace, they may drag His Majesty, win time, and change everything to the pillars, even more, There will be many innocent people involved who will be their scapegoats.

It can be said that today all this was calculated by the princess, and he was indeed moving forward step by step according to all she wished, and this woman was extremely clever and courageous, and she would not be unaware that if he made a wrong step, everything would be ruined tonight.

She is testing his ability and understanding his personality, or rather, she is leaving a way for Xiaohou Mansion to live, everyone in Kyoto is involved, there is no reason for Xiaohou Mansion to bear it alone, and there is no way to escape the responsibility in front of everyone.

And all this was quietly carried out in his ignorance.
