After dark.

Ruyi took advantage of the night to pick up Yue Qingming and Fang Kui, they had been in that humble house for a day, only drinking some water, and they were already a little out of strength.

Seeing Ruyi coming, Yue Qingming suddenly smiled: "Ruyi, you can be regarded as here!" ”

Ruyi frowned tightly to support Yue Qingming, his face was full of worry: "Miss, didn't you say that you were going to take Fang Kui to a place to run errands, why did you suddenly provoke the prince's people in a good manner?" ”

"It should be that they have been secretly watching our movements."

"That's ...... now."

"It should be fine now," Yue Qingming smiled: "Okay, let's not talk nonsense, take us back quickly, I'm about to starve to death." ”

Ruyi nodded: "Okay!" ”

Ruyi came secretly, and the carriage was not the style of Mingyue Tower, and the way back was deliberately spared for a while, avoiding the prince's eyeliner, although it was delayed for some time, but it was finally returned to Mingyue Tower safe and sound.

Yue Qingming breathed a sigh of relief, there was finally no danger today, but I really didn't expect the prince to really get rid of her and Fang Kui, if they hadn't taken Dong Xi with them today, they might have died in that Qinglou.

Fang Kui took a sip of water to ease his senses, and said with a frown: "Now that your plan has failed, what should you do next?" ”

Yue Qingming was also thinking about this, originally according to her plan, she would bring those Qinglou women back to Mingyue Tower to take care of them, and then bring them to the emperor to testify against the prince's ambition to usurp the throne, but who would have thought that the prince was so ruthless that he directly sent someone to kill them, and no one was left alive!

"Forget about this matter, now it's very difficult for us to even go out to find evidence, the prince's people must still be looking for us outside, and it's safer to stay in Mingyue Tower recently."

"You're right, but you still have to find the evidence you need to find."

Fang Kui's brows furrowed a little tighter, and his tone couldn't help but have a little anger in his tone: "Are you serious?" Are you going to go out and find evidence at a time like this? You don't take your life seriously, do you? ”

Ruyi, who was standing next to him, also agreed with Fang Kui's statement this time, in this situation, it was safest for them to stay in Mingyue Tower, but if they left here for a single step, they would be assassinated by the prince's people.

So Ruyi comforted and said: "Miss, what Fang Kui said this time makes sense, it is safer for you to stay in Mingyue Tower, if you go out, you may encounter accidents at any time, you shouldn't want the prince to worry about you." ”

Yue Qingming subconsciously frowned, she definitely didn't want Jiang Qiancheng to worry about herself, but if she was just staying in Mingyue Tower, what if she had promised to find evidence before? This is the best time for Jiang Qiancheng to step on the crown prince!

Ruyi looked at Yue Qingming and frowned, with a hesitant expression, and after thinking about it, he suggested: "Miss, since you can't leave Mingyue Tower for the time being, why don't you leave the matter of finding evidence to someone else?" ”

Yue Qingming raised his head and looked at Ruyi puzzled: "Someone else?" ”

"Isn't Young Master Fang Huai in the Imperial City now? Moreover, the third lady has already been in contact with many nobles, and there are some things that they can help. ”

Yue Qingming refused almost without hesitation: "No! ”

"Miss, this is a critical moment, we need their help!"

"If I say no, then no! Their purpose in the Imperial City is just to collect information, they don't have to worry about other things, if something happens to them, how can I explain it to my family? Absolutely not! ”

Seeing that Yue Qingming was a little angry, Ruyi didn't dare to continue.

Fang Kui was a little curious about the two people Ruyi just said, he hadn't heard of Yue Qingming's relatives still helping to collect information in the imperial city before, it seemed that Yue Qingming had quite a lot of lines hidden in the dark!

Fang Kui smiled and said, "If you really need someone's help, I actually have a suggestion as well. ”

Yue Qingming and Ruyi looked at him at the same time: "Who?" ”

"Don't you still have a friend who is the king of Nan'an?" Fang Kui said with a smile: "With his identity and ability, plus he now has a princess of the Yan Kingdom by his side, even if he wanders around the entire imperial city casually, no one will doubt their purpose." ”

After Fang Kui's reminder, Yue Qingming had a feeling of sudden enlightenment, but was Gu Shun's character really suitable to help them find evidence? Wouldn't this kind of thing be a little dangerous for him?

Seeing that Yue Qingming seemed to be hesitating, Fang Kui said again: "Yue Qingming, although I know that you are worried about your friend, but in this situation, the two of them are the most able to help us, unless, you want Jiang Qiancheng to get involved in your affairs." ”

Yue Qingming frowned instantly, and subconsciously clenched his fists, Jiang Qiancheng's affairs were tricky enough, and he must not be worried about his own affairs anymore!

So Yue Qingming took a deep breath and said to Ruyi: "Ruyi, then please go to Gu Shun after dawn tomorrow, tell him what I mean, and see if he is willing to help me with this." ”

"Yes."

Fang Kui said: "I think he will help, after all, you are friends, aren't you?" ”

Yue Qingming frowned, his expression still worried: "I just hope that he can be safe, regardless of whether he can find evidence in the end." ”

Early morning.

Ruyi took advantage of the fact that the sky had just dawned and was still a little hazy when he went out, and the destination was clear and he arrived directly at the Nan'an County Palace, but it was too early at that time, and the door of the mansion was not opened, so Ruyi didn't want to alarm the irrelevant people, so he went directly over the wall.

When he found Gu Shun, he was still sleeping, and Ruyi directly pulled him up and shook his shoulders to wake him up.

Gu Shun opened his eyes, and when he saw that it was Ruyi, he yawned and said, "Ruyi, it's you, what are you doing coming to me so early?" ”

Ruyi let go of his shoulders and said respectfully: "King Nan'an, I'm sorry to disturb you so early, but there is something very important on Miss's side, and I need your help, so please don't refuse." ”

"What's the matter?"

"Miss is now looking for evidence of the prince's crime with Fang Kui, but they were assassinated yesterday, and they can only stay in Mingyue Tower for the time being, and what they haven't had time to complete needs to be replaced by the king of Nan'an County,"

Gu Shun's drowsiness suddenly woke up, and he looked at Ruyi in disbelief: "Me? You're not kidding, are you? ”

"No," Ruyi replied seriously: "King Nan'an, now you are the only one who can help Miss!" ”
