Chapter 245: The Hidden Guard Infiltrates
"It looks like a hidden guard in the palace, and there is only one person here, it should be sent by Zhan Qianqi."
"Zhan Qianqi?" Bai Qianning, who was sitting on the side, stood up and muttered: "When I had to promise to use the elixir to change the position with him in order to get out of the palace smoothly, now he must have heard that I was going to marry someone else, and he was suspicious." You say he only sent one man? ”
"Yes, there is only one person at the moment, and our people have not easily revealed their identities, but they are also strictly guarding against letting him in."
"Let him in, since there is only one person, you guys will definitely not hurt me in him, and I don't expect Zhan Qianqi to kill me, he also wants me to develop an elixir for her, and besides, even if he thinks I lied to him, he will keep me to balance the power of the Yan family for her." If you let him in, I'll see what Zhan Qianqi wants to do when he sends him. ”
Hearing her analysis like this, Zhan Qianche was still a little uneasy, and only said: "That's what I said, but I still don't want you to take risks." ”
"It's okay, you can hide in the shadows, and if you have any problems, you can come to my rescue at any time."
"Okay!"
Zhan Qianche was no longer at ease, and he could only agree, after all, if Zhan Qianqi really dispelled his doubts about Bai Qianning, he couldn't prevent it from being too dead.
Saying that, Zhan Qianche took out the sword locked in the box, and then ordered Mu Yan to relax his guard, and then jumped onto the beam.
After a while, there was silence all around, and the tip of a sword reached through the closed door of the courtyard door, and the tip of the sword cut the bolt of the door little by little, and the wooden door was opened with a creak.
Bai Qianning lay on the bed and pretended to wake up, and saw the faces of the people who came clearly by the reflection of the candlelight. She wrapped herself in the futon and stepped back and asked in surprise, "Who are you?" ”
The person who came saw clearly that it was Bai Qianning on the bed, so he lowered his voice and said: "I was sent by the emperor, and you can answer whatever I ask you now, otherwise you will ......."
The hidden guard said, the hilt of the sword in his hand flipped over, and a touch of golden light happened to be reflected on Bai Qianning's face, Bai Qianning subconsciously stretched out his hand to block it, understood the threat in his words, and hurriedly said: "You ask, I will say." ”
Seeing that Bai Qianning didn't mean to resist, the hidden guard still showed a look of disdain on his face, he didn't know where such a thin woman had the ability to make the emperor have high hopes for her, and tried to use her to balance the power of the Yan family.
It's just that thinking about it like this, he can only do what a slave should do, so he can only look at it and continue: "The emperor asked me to ask you, it is rumored in the market that you are going to marry a gentleman businessman, but is there such a thing?" ”
"It is true."
"You ......" The hidden guard was obviously a little stunned, he originally thought that Bai Qianning might be able to quibble, but he didn't expect her to answer so neatly and crunchyly. Then he asked: "Have you forgotten that you once made an agreement with the emperor with the elixir?" If you marry a businesswoman at the moment, don't you want the next position? ”
"Don't do it!" Bai Qianning still replied calmly, she pulled the corners of the quilt, wrapped herself more tightly, and said: "The emperor actually sent you, so I bother you to convey it for me, I don't want the posterior, but I will still refine the elixir for him." As for who I marry, the emperor doesn't need to ask, because I wanted the throne for power at the beginning, and today I marry someone surnamed Cheng for money, anyway, it's all married, and it's okay to marry anyone. ”
"Ahem......" The hidden guard couldn't help coughing because of this woman's bold divine logic, worried about being sent a letter and quickly covered his mouth, and then said again: "Do you think that the money you can get as a queen is not as good as a businesswoman?" ”
"Oh, that's not it."
Bai Qianning hurriedly denied it, and then said: "I just suddenly feel that it is more interesting to get something directly than to earn it little by little." If he is willing to believe me and find the missing herbs as soon as possible, I can quickly refine the elixir of life for him, and the Yan family is rich and powerful, and it may threaten the imperial court at any time, so the emperor must have tried his best for this, and you tell the emperor that within two years, I will definitely create another commercial empire to compete with the Yan family, and this can be regarded as a gift from me to the imperial court. ”
"Don't be a fool of you! The foundation of the Yan family for decades is also comparable to that of a woman like yours? ”
"If you can match it, try it. Also, if the people sent by the emperor want to see me, just report at the main gate, don't break in in the middle of the night and disturb people's dreams. Now, please go back. ”
After Bai Qianning finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and gestured to please, without any fear of the black-clothed masked guard in front of him who held a sharp sword.
The hidden guard seemed to be frightened, frowning but not moving half a step, but said: "Do you think that if you say this, the emperor will believe you?" ”
"How can I say that it doesn't matter, the important thing is that the emperor replied to the letter, and he has already chosen to believe me, hasn't he? You and I both know that if the emperor has the intention of killing me, I am afraid that I have already died a hundred times, and he only sent you alone this time, isn't this enough to explain the problem? ”
Bai Qianning said and smiled, took out a medicine box from the space in front of the hidden guard in front of him, opened the medicine box, and the thousand-year-old ginseng, hundred-year-old He Shou Wu and other precious medicinal materials fell into front of him.
The hidden guard watched Bai Qianning once again exert this ability to change out of thin air, and his surprise had completely overshadowed the doubts in his heart, coupled with this box of precious medicinal materials, he completely dispelled the doubts in his heart.
Bai Qianning looked at his surprised look, got up and handed the box to him, and said: "These are all the medicinal materials needed to refine the elixir except for the one medicine that is missing, if the emperor doesn't believe it, he can send it to the Medicine King Valley, ask the Medicine King to test it, and take 10,000 steps back, even if you search all over the mountains and five seas, you can't find that medicine, and if you take it according to this recipe, it is enough to prolong your life." In addition, I have promised to open 100 restaurants within three months, and I ask the emperor to wait and see. ”
After Bai Qianning finished speaking, he walked to the door, stretched out his hand and made another gesture of please, and the black-clothed guard hugged the box and said, "Okay, I'll believe you once, but I still have a question, and I'll leave after asking." ”
"What's the problem?"
"The Seventh Prince...... Still alive? The hidden guard looked unusually serious when he asked this, so serious that it was not like he had come to pass on the word, but it seemed that he really cared about the answer.
Bai Qian pondered his expression, but he didn't have time to think about it, and only explained according to the previous good words: "I haven't seen the true face of the Seventh Prince, and I don't know if the one I met that day was or not, but when that person left with a woman who called herself Bai Shao, he was respectful to Bai Shao, I think, I was deceived." ”
After Bai Qianning finished speaking, he sneered, but the hidden guard's face showed inexplicable disappointment, but it was quickly hidden, and then the hidden guard left with the box.
Bai Qianning re-closed the door after making sure that the hidden guard was gone, and Zhan Qianche, who was hiding in the shadows, also jumped down from the beam of the room and put the sword in his hand back in its place.
"I've always thought this guy was a little weird, do you recognize him?" Bai Qian's eyes were contemplative, and he paced back to the bed.
Zhan Qianche also walked over and sat beside her, and said, "The light is too dim just now, I didn't see it clearly, but I heard the voice is a little familiar, what's wrong?" ”
"I can't say it, I just said that the Seventh Prince I met is not real, and he seems to be a little disappointed."
"Oh? Then I'll order Mu Yan to check tomorrow, but it's late at night, so let's go to bed first. After Zhan Qianche finished speaking, he helped Bai Qianning to lie down, and he also lay beside her, wrapping her tightly.
The late autumn night was already a little cold, but his arms were unusually warm and comfortable.
......
The sun is gradually emerging from the mountain stream, and the Yanfu in the east of the city in Jibei is already restless.
Yan Moze woke up and found that he had slept for two whole days, and appeared in Jibei County, dozens of miles away, and only Wei Qi and dozens of hidden guards of the Yan family were guarding in front of him.
"Wei Qi? It's you? Who gave you the guts? Yan Moze turned over and got out of bed, grabbed Wei Qi's clothes, and the green tendons on his forehead burst out. It was not the first time in his memory that such a scene had occurred, and every time he woke up on a full moon night, he was surrounded by such a scene. If he hadn't woken up and asked the maid, knowing that yesterday was not a full moon night, he would almost have thought that he had run out and killed someone again.
But if he wasn't sick, why did he sleep for two days, and why did he appear in Jibei? There was only one answer, it was Wei Qi and these hidden guards who kidnapped him after he was stunned.
