Ye Xinyi twisted his eyebrows and thought for a moment, then he also got up.

"Ma'am?" Liu Lu was anxious, especially when she saw Ye Xinyi taking a step, she was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly followed. She didn't believe what she could think of, and Mrs. didn't think of it, but why did Mrs. still go knowing that it was inappropriate?

Although Ye Xinyi didn't know why Feng Yunyi wanted to tell her, perhaps, this real layout was not aimed at Zhaoning, but at her, perhaps, with some different deep meanings, perhaps, perhaps, it was ....... But even if she knew, she couldn't sit idly by. What if it's true, then she knows, but does she stand idly by? Zhaoning ...... In this filthy and dark palace city, the only existence like a clear stream, the straightforward and simple, the Zhao Ning who loves and hates clearly, the Zhao Ning who makes her always have a trace of unspeakable guilt......

Seeing that the master and servant of Zhaoning had already left the palace banquet behind the palace maid in the blue skirt, Ye Xinyi followed, and his steps did not lag for a minute.

Liu Lu knew that she couldn't stop her wife, so she simply stopped stopping it, gritted her teeth, and followed in silence.

It's just that when they went around to the direction where Fang Zhaoning left, they chased along the path between the flowers and shadows for a while, and they came to a fork in the road, but they had already disappeared from Zhaoning.

Ye Xinyi stopped and looked at the road leading to two different directions with a frown, "Where are they going?" ”

Liu Lu's ability is not small, when she was about to enter the palace before, Shen Yue didn't know what method she used, so that she was almost familiar with the location and road in the palace city, plus later their master and servant lived in the palace for a period of time, presumably Liu Lu had already touched the roads in the palace.

Sure enough, Liu Lu wandered around for a while, determined the direction, and pointed to a road on the right, "This is to the inner palace." He pointed to the left again, "That's to the pond." ”

There is a royal pond in the imperial garden, and the banquet hall where Emperor Qianhe invited courtiers to the imperial pond is also on the edge of the imperial pond.

It stands to reason that it is impossible for Princess Zhaoning to go over there, but it is more likely that she will return to the inner palace.

But that stands to reason, if someone really sets up a trap to harm her tonight......

Ye Xinyi hesitated slightly, then turned his head and walked towards the flower path on the left. Liu Lu didn't speak, but was silent and couldn't follow.

After walking for a while, he saw the curtain.

Because the men and women were seated separately, they were separated by curtains.

Ye Xinyi stopped and turned his head to look around, "Is there any place near here that is convenient for people to have private meetings at night?" ”

Liu Lu suppressed the surprise in his heart, thought about it for a while, and then lowered his head and replied in a deep voice, "There is a water pavilion near the river on the left. ”

Ye Xinyi did not hesitate, and walked to the left.

Because of the banquet in front of him, the sound of silk and bamboo was far away, as if through the fog veil, looming. But the stream, which draws water from the imperial pond to create a landscape, is so quiet that no one can hear a voice. Along the way, I didn't meet anyone.

After walking for less than a stick of incense, Ye Xinyi saw the riverside water pavilion in Fang Cai's willow green mouth.

At this time, it is normal for the doors and windows of the water pavilion to be closed. There is also a faint light in the water pavilion, which is not surprising. Today, the palace holds a banquet, which is not far from the two places where the banquet is held, in case someone comes to rest for a while, there will naturally be lamps and candles, and even refreshments and other things, and someone should also be left to serve.

Although Ye Xinyi is here, he is not a fool and will not act rashly.

She made a silent gesture with Liu Lu, and the master and servant slowed down and walked slowly. Before he really got closer, he vaguely heard a sound in the water pavilion, and then, the door shook vigorously, and on the door, a figure was cast on it by candlelight, and the slender figure could be vaguely seen, it was a woman, judging from the image of the bun, it was an unmarried girl.

Ye Xinyi's eyesight was good, and when he looked closely, he realized that the door of the water pavilion was actually locked from the outside.

At this time, the person in the water pavilion let out a slightly raised cry, but as soon as it reached her mouth, she swallowed it alive.

It's really not loud, but because they are close and it's quiet here, both Ye Xinyi and Liu Lu can hear it clearly.

Liu Lu's calm face changed slightly, "It's Princess Zhaoning." ”

Ye Xinyi twisted his eyebrows and thought for a moment, turned his head to look around, and immediately made a decision, that is, he stepped over, and when he reached the stone slab bridge that was the only way to the water pavilion, he ordered Liu Lu to "guard", and then walked over quickly.

When she reached the door, she shouted softly, "Zhaoning." Then, through the window screen, I could vaguely see the situation in the water pavilion, and then I heard Zhao Ning shouting "Help me", his expression was dazed, and he didn't think much about it anymore, he took out the hidden blade that never left his body, and split the lock on the door at once, and when he entered the door, he frowned.

Naturally, there is not only Zhaoning in the water pavilion, but there is also a man, who is also an acquaintance. Ye Xinyi didn't think of someone else, Xie Ming.

Moreover, whether it is Zhao Ning or Xie Ming, it is very wrong.

The two of them were flushed, their eyes were blurred, Zhao Ning still had a trace of clarity, and shrank by the door, but Xie Ming had already pounced at Zhao Ning's feet, it seemed that one hand reached out, as if he was going to lift Zhao Ning's skirt, but the other hand still had a trace of reason, tightly picking at the back of the hand that was leaning out, because of the force, it was already scratched flesh and blood, and a handsome face was twisted in pain.

At the same time, smelling a strange fragrance at the end of his nose, Ye Xinyi raised his hand, covered his nose with his sleeve, and his eyes wandered in the water pavilion, and soon saw the blue and white seawater gossip pattern porcelain stove by the window, which was rising white smoke, and then picked up the teapot on the table of the eight immortals and strode over, opened the lid of the stove, and then tilted the teapot, the tea gurgled out, poured into the furnace, and the fragrance made two sounds, and finally extinguished.

On the high table at the other end, there is a pastel flower goose, and a bunch of gardenias are inserted in the goose.

She walked over quickly, took out the gardenia, threw it away, and carried the flower goose, and when she came to Xie Ming, she mercilessly splashed the water in the flower goose on his face......

Xie Ming was excited, as if he had sobered up, but it was a pair of faintly burning apricot eyes, staring at him, and asked coldly, "Are you awake?" When you're sober, just listen to me......"

With the sound of footsteps, as well as faint human voices and laughter, they leaned towards this place. At this time, it is normal for someone to leave the table and walk together.

"And voila! There's a water pavilion over there, and I've been walking for so long, and I'm a little tired, so it's better to go over and rest. A group of women, dressed in fragrant clothes and sideburns, Ye Xinyi looked through the window screen, she didn't know this voice, and she didn't know who it came from.

However, her suggestion was apparently answered, and footsteps came along the stone bridge.

The door was ajar and pushed open.

Ye Xinyi didn't seem to expect so many people to come suddenly, and after being stunned, he stood up, bent his knees lightly and bowed, his face a little cramped.

And the group of women obviously didn't expect that there were already people in this water pavilion, they were all stunned, and after a while, someone asked, "Are you ...... Mrs. Shen, right? ”

Ye Xinyi raised his eyes and glanced at it lightly, but he didn't have any familiar faces, so he had to say a little crampedly, "It's Shen Ye's family." ”
