Chapter 67

After making up her mind, Bai Yiyan called Hongling and Lu Qiao to pick out clothes for her, and at this time, Sun Ruoruo consciously came over and told her some of the princess's likes and dislikes, but because of the relationship between the prince, Bai Yiyan accidentally offended people without knowing it.

"Aren't you going with me?" Bai Yiyan pointed to the invitation on the table.

Sun Ruoruo didn't expect Bai Yiyan to say this, she thought that she didn't need to go, so she wanted to take the initiative to tell her about some of the women who would appear at the banquet.

"Since the crown princess has invited you, it's good for you to go, it's inconvenient for me to go." Sun Ruoruo put down the Buddhist scriptures in his hand and sorted them into the box himself.

"Sister go together, she didn't say that she could only go to the princess, what she wrote was to invite the princess." Bai Yiyan could see that Sun Ruoruo wanted to go, but he was afraid of other people's jokes because of his face.

And if Sun Ruoruo goes, she can help her cover up, and when the time comes, she will help her block in front, and it will be more convenient for her to go to the East Palace to find evidence of the prince.

"I'm afraid this is not good, I'd better go and ask the prince?" Sun Ruoruo hesitated, afraid that Mei Changqing would be angry.

"Ask him what to do, naturally he listens to me, don't I even have the right to speak about this?"

Anyway, she is still the princess, she is too lazy to take care of the financial power, anyway, there is a Zhao Mama who thinks about the palace, and she came out of the palace, she is Mei Changqing's henchman, she has nothing to say. But for the rest, she always has the final say.

"That's not what I meant, don't get me wrong."

"Of course I know that my sister is worried that I will get into trouble, and you can always remind me if you follow me, you know my previous identity, and I have never been qualified to participate in these activities!" Bai Yiyan lowered his eyes, pretending to be sad.

"Yan'er, don't be sad, I'll just go with you." Sun Ruoruo frowned and gently patted Bai Yiyan's hand.

"Thank you, sister, that tortoiseshell, come and clean up for your master." Bai Yiyan turned her head and called the tortoiseshell waiting at the door, signaling her to come over quickly.

When Bai Yiyan went back to the main courtyard to find clothes, the tortoiseshell was dressing Sun Ruoruo in the room, and Liuli stood aside with a reluctant expression.

"Miss, why are you kind enough to tell her that, she won't appreciate it!"

"Liuli, don't talk about it, everyone is in a good mood, just talk a lot!"

The tortoiseshell glanced at her, feeling that the girl was becoming more and more ignorant.

Even Sun Ruoruo was so angry that she smashed the hosta in her hand, so frightened that the two girls hurriedly knelt on the ground to plead guilty.

"Miss, the slave knows that she is wrong, and the slave will never say it again!" Liuli's pitiful appearance made Sun Ruoruo even more irritable.

"Get up, I don't blame you, it's just that I can't go to today's banquet, but when others ask, I always have to find a reason. Otherwise, people will laugh at our palace for not having a princess in charge, which will damage the reputation of the prince. "There is a more important point, that is, if the prince knows, he will feel that she does not know the general situation, and she is hypocritical, thinking that she wants to seize power.

"But, isn't that just right, Miss Shengdu is always bullied by the princess." Ruri lowered her head and muttered quietly.

"Ruri! Don't you understand Miss Ben's hard work, one glory and one loss, if you continue to be so selfish, how dare Miss Ben let you serve by your side! ”

Sun Ruoruo angrily slapped the table and stood up, and reprimanded bitterly.

"Miss forgive the sin, the slave must be obedient in the future, and dare not chew the root of the tongue again. Please calm your anger and don't get angry. ”

"Miss, forget it, you see that Liuli has served you for so many years, and she is also dedicated to your good, so she will feel that the princess is too much."

"Let's go with me today, Liuli, you have thought about it in the palace, don't think about it for me, and let me know that you are talking nonsense everywhere, and I will send you home, whether you should be sold or married, everything is arranged by Mrs. Hou!"

"Don't, Miss!" Liuli cried and shouted, her face was covered with snot and tears, and she looked very embarrassed.

But she knew that she must not be sent home by the young lady. The current Mrs. Hou Ye is the continuation of the old general's marriage, and she is most unaccustomed to her young lady, and she is naturally not able to get any better treatment of her, the personal maid of the former young lady.

Sun Ruoruo put down the cruel words and asked the tortoiseshell to drive Liuli out of the door.

By the time Bai Yiyan and Sun Ruoruo came to the East Palace Prince's Mansion, there were already many exquisite and gorgeous carriages stopped at the gate. Bai Yiyan couldn't see anything from the appearance of this car, and only when they sat in the carriage did they know how precious this car was.

Anyway, let Sun Ruoruo envy Bai Yiyan, this carriage was carefully built by the prince, with drawers, sleepers, coffee tables, can sit and sleep, and also select the strongest and most patient horses, as well as the most proficient coachmen. The most important thing is that it is not bumpy, this is the most heartfelt gift that the prince gave to the princess.

Since she took charge of the palace, she was still wondering what the prince was going to do, and now she knows that this is the princess's wedding gift.

Sun Ruoruo looked at Bai Yiyan, who was sitting on the main seat on one side, she was wearing a rose-red dress, a pink scarf around her body, and the white tiger auspicious jade rewarded by the prince plus the word Jin Xiangfu Yingluo. The facial features gradually grew, and the original youth and immaturity became exquisite and gorgeous today. In the past, it was a clear water hibiscus with buds waiting to be released, and now it is a gorgeous peony in full bloom.

And herself, since the princess wore rose, she could no longer wear anything more gaudy or the same as it, and it would not be good to cross her. She can only wear a pink skirt and a white scarf, and even the Peiyu around her waist can't exceed her grade, because the clothes are only her color, and Peiyu can only choose the medium grade.

She actually knew that she shouldn't have come, and she didn't have to give others a chance to humiliate her. But no, she must come, otherwise the emperor will not spare her family.

Since Bai Yiyan married into the palace, she didn't even have a chance to go out of her side courtyard to listen to Yuxuan, and the emperor would think she was useless. Now, she can only show the prince's favor to her in front of other noble ladies and noblewomen, and she also respects the princess very much, so that she can temporarily maintain the prince's face and her image in the emperor's heart.

When Xiao Linzi went to hand over the post and came back and asked them to get out of the car, Sun Ruoruo came back to her senses, first Bai Yiyan got out of the car, and then turned around to help her, indicating that they had a good relationship and her respect for her.

Bai Yiyan was still in excitement, lifted the curtain and looked around, she saw a woman in white walking down from a carriage in front of her, seeing that her figure and hair accessories were still a girl who had not left the cabinet, her temperament was very dusty, and she didn't know which family's daughter she was.

As she watched, the woman actually looked at her, then took out her handkerchief, covered her lips and laughed, and said something to the woman next to her, and the two laughed together and bent over......

Bai Yiyan thought that he had provoked them to laugh at something, and was looking down to take care of it, but he didn't hear the call of the maids and eunuchs outside.

What she didn't know was that she was looking at the beauty in the car, but she was worried about Sun Ruoruo outside, so she stretched out her hand in embarrassment and bowed her head to ask.

After waiting for a long time, Bai Yiyan didn't come out, and the tortoiseshell standing next to Sun Ruoruo felt that the princess had deliberately embarrassed her young lady. was seen by the people around them, and their contemptuous eyes made the tortoiseshell's face flush, not to mention Sun Ruoruo, who lowered his head.

"Miss, it's Princess Huayang and Mrs. Shilang over there." Seeing that the two of them were blatant, the tortoiseshell lowered her head and leaned next to Sun Ruoruo to remind.

Sun Ruoruo's hand trembled, stiffened his waist, and took back his hanging hand.

When she was a noble lady in the boudoir, the crown princess did not deal with Sun Ruoruo, and now her close friends saw her embarrassment, which made her eager to go up and smash their ridiculous faces.

The princess's close friend is the white-clothed woman Princess Huayang, who once married, but the horse died on the battlefield before she got married. But who knew that she died in a foreign country, and she didn't even find her body, she only brought back a sword, and Princess Huayang hated Mei Changqing since then.

Later, the wife of the emperor's newly promoted chamberlain hugged the crown princess's thigh, and now the three of them are the best friends of the Iron Triangle, often exchanging news, and the situation of the women in and out of the palace at home is very accurate.

In many cases, they relied on the various banquets invited by the crown princess to set up the words of the people, so as to judge the situation of their men in the court. Those who are vigilant are not very bothered by this kind of thing, and other people who are a little vain and want to climb the dragon and the phoenix feel that it is a great honor to be invited by the crown princess.

"Princess, it's time to get off." Hongling naturally saw Sun Ruoruo's ugly face and her sarcastic appearance, and after squatting down to salute Sun Ruoruo, she walked to the side of the car and knocked on the window gently.

"Princess?" Hongling asked suspiciously.

When Hongling opened the curtain of the car, he found that Bai Yiyan was unconscious in the car, and Xiao Linzi followed behind and exclaimed.

Bai Yiyan didn't get out of the car for a long time just now, which has attracted the attention of many people, and even Mengdie, the princess's personal maidservant who was standing at the door, looked over.

Now, because of Xiao Linzi's shouting, Mengdie has already come over to inspect the situation.

"What's going on?" Mengdie smiled, full of luxury and dignified.

If you don't know, you still think that it is the daughter of a nobleman, but in fact, everyone is praising the princess for teaching people, and even the personal maid is so well raised.

In fact, the crown princess has sent her maidservants to the mansions of major people, some of them have become the concubines of a certain adult, and some have even helped them to be their wives. It is true that the whole court has the prince's eyeliner, but all this is acquiesced by the emperor, otherwise how dare they be so blatant.

This dream butterfly is now the object of competition among officials, not for themselves and for their own children, as long as they can climb the big tree of the prince, it doesn't matter what method they do. It's just that this Mengdie girl is demanding and doesn't want to be a concubine, the man can't be very old, he can't be very young, he doesn't need to be able to be literate and martial, but he has to be in line with her heart.

This caused the Manchu Dynasty to despise her a little, but because the prince could only pretend not to know, he continued to show his goodwill in front of her, so that the daughter of other people's families was really faceless, and he felt that he was not as good as a girl.

The daughters of other families thought about it, and they had to compare with her, what kind of husband is better, so they set off a trend of marrying late.

This also makes the identity of Princess Huayang no longer embarrassing, but some people are vying to follow suit, so that Princess Huayang gradually values her, and the status of this dream butterfly is rising again.

"If you go back to Sister Mengdie, my princess is unwell, so she has to go back first, why don't you let the side concubine Niangniang attend the banquet on behalf of my master?" Hongling squatted down and asked Sun Ruoruo.

Sun Ruoruo swept away Fang Cai's unhappiness and glanced at the carriage with a little worry.

Just as he was about to nod his head in agreement, Bai Yiyan's slightly weak voice suddenly came from the carriage, but it gave people a false impression of gentleness.

"No, I can go." Bai Yisu pulled the curtain with his hand, walked out of the car with a pale face, stepped on the driver's back, and got out of the car with a shaking.

Fortunately, Hongling and tortoiseshell eyes next to her quickly supported her body, otherwise she would have to fall. At that time, people will misunderstand that the matter is small, and she will be injured by falling, and the prince will have to take their lives!

When Bai Yiyan lowered her head to arrange her skirt just now, a sachet fell out of the cuffs, and as soon as she picked it up and smelled it, her head was dizzy.

She heard Hongling's call just now, but she didn't have the strength to respond, or she thought that there was a medicine box in the drawer, and Mei Changqing deliberately asked her to stay in the car in case of emergency.

She took out the Brain Awakening Pill and the Antidote Pill to ease it a little, but her body was still uncomfortable, but she couldn't miss this opportunity to enter the Prince's Mansion. If she wants to find evidence, she must prove the innocence between Mei Changqing and Mei Zixin.

When Sun Ruoruo saw Bai Yiyan's face, a sense of guilt rose in her heart.

"What's wrong with you?" Sun Ruoruo leaned into Bai Yiyan's ear and whispered.

"It's okay, it's just that my body is a little uncomfortable, just take a rest." Bai Yiyan waved her hand, so that she didn't have to worry.

"Why don't you just go back, just have me here." Sun Ruoruo frowned, looking at her situation is really bad.

If Bai Yiyan had an accident in the prince's mansion, the prince would not be able to blame the prince, and then she would be blamed......

"No, I'm going in." Bai Yiyan looked at Sun Ruoruo with firm eyes and expressed her determination.

Sun Ruoruo had no choice but to follow behind Bai Yiyan.

As soon as Bai Yiyan saw Mengdie and heard Hongling's introduction, she said to her: "I'm a little tired from the car, can you ask the girl to arrange a room for me and let me rest for a while?" ”

Seeing this, Mengdie despised Bai Yiyan fiercely in her heart, and frowned, but what she thought in her mind was that this woman was not worthy of the king she liked. is such a small family, his body is still weak, and he is tired after sitting in the car for a while, how can he compare with Mei Changqing?

That's right! The princess and maidservant in front of her, whose eyes are above the top, is Mei Changqing.

But Mengdie was full of joy on the surface, she personally led Bai Yiyan into the door, and then turned left and right to the side courtyard of the East Palace Prince's Mansion.

Rooms abound along the way, but Mengdie had the heart to lead her to a courtyard where there was no way out, and then pushed open one of the rooms and invited Bai Yiyan in.

Bai Yiyan had silently memorized the route all the way, secretly guessing where the prince's study was, and now he was helped to the room. Mengdie went to the door under the pretext that there was a pretext, and Bai Yiyan naturally nodded, wishing that she would leave quickly. She weakly sent Hongling to pour hot tea and let her rest alone for a while.

Hongling was worried that she didn't dare to leave, and was scolded by her, so she finally had no choice but to leave the yard and go to the kitchen.

When Hongling was completely gone, Bai Yiyan lay down on the soft couch gently, listening to her footsteps and gradually walking away.

She was about to open the door and walk around when she noticed a man sneaking towards her room.

She hid behind the screen, and the man rubbed his hands at the door, laughed lewdly, and finally pushed the door in.

Bai Yiyan leaned sideways, took the wooden basin behind him in his hand, and when the man approached the bed, he was just about to lift the mosquito net, but Bai Yiyan splashed himself with water, and she knocked his head with the wooden basin.

Playing this trick again?

Heh, last time she was in the Prime Minister's Mansion, she was quite experienced, and she won't be fooled this time.

Could it be that the sachet is the prince's hands and feet?

It shouldn't be, Mei Changqing handed over the palace to Mama Zhao, and Mama Zhao guarded the palace like an iron bucket, it must have been done by the people in the mansion.

According to Mei Changqing, the only people in the prince's faction in the mansion are Sun Ruoruo's master and servant, but the sachet was not given to her by Sun Ruoruo.

Your sachet is still made by Lu Qiao, Lu Qiao, as Mama Zhao's henchman, should not be able to change the pollen and petals inside.

If it's not them, only Zhu Qibi has a grudge against her, if she doesn't give up, then it's quite possible.

It's just how did she unite with the people of the Prince's Mansion?

Bai Yiyan is becoming more and more sensitive in the investigation of Mei Zixin, and everything will be conspiratorial.

There is no way, the main reason is that what the emperor and the crown prince did stimulated her too much, and she loves to make up for her brain, so she naturally found a lot of doubts.

What Bai Yiyan didn't know was that after the dream butterfly said goodbye, she didn't go to the front yard door to continue to greet her. Instead, she went to the lower room, where there were many little maids that the prince wanted to take when he went out, and she picked the ugliest one at random.

He made some money to let him go to the most difficult room in the backyard, saying that there was a servant girl who annoyed the princess and was punished to go there, and today while the princess was holding a banquet outside, he could take the opportunity to accomplish good deeds, and when the raw rice was cooked and cooked, the princess would naturally give him that person.

When the old bachelor heard this, of course he was willing, so he hurriedly thanked Miss Mengdie and rushed here.

This girl is beautiful, but she is actually a femme fatale, if anyone marries her, the backyard will inevitably be full of miasma.

Seeing that he was dizzy, Bai Yiyan sneered, turned around and left.

It seems that this crown princess is not necessarily pure.

At the emperor's family banquet that day, the gentle and virtuous woman I saw during the banquet was actually a wolf in sheep's clothing.

Bai Yiyan returned along the same path, and when she was about to step into the front hall, she bypassed from behind, knocked out a girl by the way, and stole her clothes. pretending to be her again, I asked a few maidservants and found the prince's study.

She climbed in through the window and saw many treasures, more than she had seen in Mei Changqing's study.

She looked left and right, became greedy for money again, touched a few pieces of jade, put them in her arms, and then rummaged through his books, and finally found what she wanted.

As soon as he was about to go out, he was frightened by a sound of footsteps and hurriedly hid in the bookshelves lined up on the side.

Prince Mei Changyi pushed open the door of the study, and found that a few pieces of jade on the shelf were missing, he twisted his eyebrows fiercely and called the eunuch who cleaned up.

"Where did the few pieces of Hetian Nuanyu on the shelf go?" Mei Changyi grimaced his face and smashed the hot tea in his hand on the little eunuch's face.

Bai Yiyan watched, sighed at his ruthlessness, and tightened the jade in his arms.

Hetian Nuanyu, it must be very valuable!

Just as Bai Yiyan was secretly moving towards the door, Mei Changyi heard the movement and shouted: "Whoever is there, get out of the palace!" ”

Bai Yiyan had no choice, thinking that she was going to be discovered like this, she was in a hurry, saw an undried inkstone on the bookshelf, stretched out her finger and dipped some ink and wiped it on her face.

When Mei Changyi was about to get angry for the second time, he finally saw the cyan figure coming out from behind the bookshelf.

"Who are you?"

"If you go back to the prince, it was the princess who asked the slave maid to come to the study to get these pieces of Hetian jade." Bai Yiyan pinched her throat and spoke, so that people couldn't hear her original voice.

"Then why did you hide when you saw Hongu?" Mei Changyi squinted her eyes and didn't believe her words.

He felt that the woman in front of him was very familiar, but because of the blackness on his face, he couldn't see who it was.

He pulled out his handkerchief and dipped it in some tea, telling her to look up to wipe the ink off her face.

Bai Yiyan raised his face and asked him to wipe it, so when he was not paying attention, he kicked his crotch, and then ran away with the jade in his arms.

Mei Changyi's face was swollen and red for a while, and he was holding his crotch and twisting in place, unable to breathe in pain.

Who the hell is this damn woman who dares to kick him?

Bai Yiyan had just run away, so he went back to change his clothes, and saw Hongling anxiously guarding the door of the room.

"Princess, where have you been?" Hongling is dying.

"It's okay, you saw the man in the room too, throw him out for me. Let's change our clothes and leave the Prince's Mansion quickly, this place can't stay! ”

Bai Yiyan didn't want to explain too much, so after instructing Hongling, let him throw this person into the garden where the crown princess was enjoying the flowers, and wait for her to come back and pull her away.

Hongling don't look at the soft and weak, in fact, the strength is surprising, carrying that man is just a trivial matter, and it is just right for her to do this.

After Bai Yiyan said goodbye, she sat in the carriage and took out the pieces of jade and evidence, almost getting wet with cold sweat all over her body.

"Princess, what happened just now?" Hongling's eyes were red, and she was still remembering what had just happened, blaming herself, blaming herself for not guarding her well, so that the bad guys had a chance.

"I was fine just now, I found him early in the morning, so I knocked him unconscious and didn't hurt myself. You don't have to worry. Bai Yiyan comforted her.

"Princess, damn it, the slave and maid almost made you suffer an insult!" Hongling still felt that she was at fault, so she hurriedly got up and knelt in the car, and pleaded guilty with Bai Yiyan.

"Hurry up, you said it's okay, let others see it, what should you think of this princess?" Bai Yiyan saw that she refused to get up, so she asked her to think about the stakes.

This time, Hongling didn't dare to kneel anymore, so she immediately stood up cautiously, sat aside, and smashed tears on the back of her hand.
