Chapter 38: Whereabouts
In the main courtyard where the princess was, Hou Cong accompanied her, and finally made a preliminary investigation plan. First of all, it is the members of the investigation team, the princess is the mainstay, and Hou Cong is the auxiliary, and the investigation will be carried out in a secret way, without much fanfare at the beginning. Because a large part of the work that Bai Shen is responsible for is related to intelligence and detailed work, there is no record of how they committed the case, how they were sentenced, and how they were executed.
Hou Cong suggested that the princess should start from death row.
"First check the order to carry out the death penalty, the first order to take in the detention came from which yamen and which person."
Princess Yanyang found an opportunity to ask at this time, "Your girl didn't die, is this matter over?" You're not mad at me anymore? ”
Hou Cong lowered his eyelids and did not speak. Mo Yanyang was coquettish, "She can escape from a place like death row, what if she comes back and hides in my house and wants to kill me?" ”
Hou Cong still didn't speak.
Mo Yanyang "hummed and chirped", "The people in your team can't be found on our ground, and this is also your responsibility." ”
Hou Cong changed the topic, "The less people know about the old case of the Bai family, the less people know. Those who already know, such as His Royal Highness King Yangxian, don't need to hear any more details. Today in the Slender Waist Lake, don't mention these. ”
"Okay." The princess happily enjoyed the feeling of being instructed and governed by Hou Cong.
Hou Cong gently lifted his robe and stood up, this action, on him, was always natural and bewitching enough. Mo Yanyang can't get enough of it anyway. How nice it would be if you could see it every day, even three or four times, five or six times.
She heard Hou Cong say, "Your Highness is busy with other things today, and I'll talk about it tomorrow." ”
Mo Yanyang was stunned for a moment, thought about it and reacted, knowing that this meant going to death row. She was also suspicious for a moment, Hou Cong asked herself to check the death row first, did she suspect that Bai Yi was still there? Or, do you want to go to the scene to see how Bai Yi escaped, and then find clues and then find Bai Yi?
But he didn't seem to be in a hurry.
Let my heart go up and down, pondering for a long time. However, the more this happened, the more she looked forward to the pleasure of taking him for herself after all.
Bai Yi went to the palace for the second time, and estimated that it was an afternoon. The weather was hot and dry, and the flowers in full bloom were half closed in a dejected manner. At this time, in the Yuwen family and the Bai family, they were the least crowded places in the courtyard. In the palace, sure enough, it was the same. Without meeting anyone, Bai Yi left the back garden smoothly. Her destination today is clear, it is to go to the Huanyi Bureau. There, not only can you get some clothes of lower-level palace maids to cover yourself, but you can also check the clothes sent by the Yilan Palace, where the Queen Mother lives.
The sun was scorching, and because it was not a place where thieves or assassins came and went, there were no soldiers to patrol or guard. The white clothes bypassed a few sleepy eunuchs, entered the courtyard, and entered the room again. First, she found two worn palace maid uniforms, rolled them up and tied them around her waist, and then, when she heard the sound of someone coming in, she covered herself with stacked bedding to be washed and hid it in the fabric.
There were five or six palace daughters who came in, and they talked about eating and drinking, and talked about Mo Hui, sure enough, the Huanyi Bureau and the Palace Weaving Bureau all took some children's items to rush to work a few days ago, and everyone guessed that the prince was about to be established, but there was no news.
The words of the palace daughter were pulled from Tiannan to Haibei, maybe it was because the Huanyi Bureau was too marginal, and they didn't have too many scruples, which palace and hall heard the wind and grass, and they dared to take it out. Bai Yi looked forward to hearing about the Yilan Palace, but it never happened. And the conversation between the palace daughters finally fell back to Mo Hui.
One said, "This little prince is too pitiful." The one who gave birth to him didn't even seal Zhaoyi. ”
One said, "Men are so affectionate." It turned out to be as deep as the sea, but now it is left to fend for itself. ”
Another said, "It's still the reader's brain." The one didn't look at who he was, and insisted that the emperor was not right, even if the former prince couldn't come back, he should let the concubine of the first emperor take the throne, how could he say this kind of thing? It's not that the emperor hasn't coaxed her and appeased her, she just turned her back on the king. So what to expect? ”
The first to speak sighed, "Not really." With such a mother, how could the emperor let the little prince see her? Isn't it bad to teach? ”
The second answered, and his voice was obviously full of sympathy, "Now that person is half dead in Bihan Tower, and he doesn't even go to the imperial doctor, I'm afraid he won't be able to survive for a few days, this mother and son, don't expect to see each other again in this life." ”
There was a eunuch outside, and a few palace maids went out to deliver things, and the white clothes secretly came out, jumped out of the window and jumped to the backyard, and left the Huanyi Bureau while people were not paying attention. My heart was full of distress for Mo Hui.
At dusk, while the guards and the eunuchs and palace maids on duty were on duty, the white clothes were changed into the clothes of the palace maids, and the damage was not obvious, but she still avoided people and went to the Zhaoqing Palace. She squatted down in the most suitable flowers for concealment, endured the dampness of the damp land, and waited for more than half an hour to find that Mo Hui, who had finished dinner, had been sent back from outside. According to the rules, he has the freedom to play for half an hour before reading the night book.
Although the little prince is young, he has an undoubted majesty, "You just have to close the gate of the palace, you don't have to wait for the key, outsiders can't get in, and no one can get out." Now let me walk freely, and you will each eat your own. ”
The palace maids and eunuchs had no choice but to agree to the word "yes", the door was closed, and the door was closed, and the dispersed were dispersed, Mo Hui's small figure walked back to the room through the courtyard, and after another quarter of an hour, he hit the small lantern with a glass cover the size of a fist and walked out.
He placed the little lantern on the ground, and his little short legs ran a few steps quickly, and got around a few places that were too dense with flowers.
Even if a palace maid and eunuch saw it from afar, they didn't dare to care about him.
"Yuwen is white." He laughed and called his new friend.
"Mo Hui." Bai Yi said.
"Are you here specifically for me?" The little prince's eyes were full of wisdom.
Bai Yi nodded, "Well, let me ask you, do you miss your mother?" ”
Mo Hui didn't speak, leaned closer against the white clothes, stretched out his little hand to her, and nodded.
"I heard she's in Birham House, I'll take you to meet her."
"Where's the Birham House?"
Bai Yi shook his head.
Mo Hui smiled, "You're so stupid." I'll ask you to go. ”
Bai Yi grabbed him, "Then the person you ask, you know that we are going there." ”
The two of them squatted among the flowers, melancholy for a while.
Or Mo Hui had an idea, "What does Bihan Tower do?" I seem to have heard of it — yes, I remember in a trance, they borrowed and returned books, and they went there. ”
In this way, the Bihan House is the library of the palace.
Mo Hui was confident, "That's easy, you wait for me." ”
