Chapter 427: The Plan of Counterattack (I)
"There's nothing wrong with me looking at the third lady, I've always stayed in my yard and never went out." The little maid glanced at Wei Qidao beside her, "Is it that our young lady is too careful, and misunderstood the third young lady, the slaves and maids have been guarding outside the Zixuan Pavilion every day these days, and they haven't seen anything wrong." ”
"Are you sure that the third lady has never been out of Zixuan Pavilion?" Wei Qi believed in Ning Zhixuan's ability, thinking that if he was not very sure, Ning Zhixuan would not have instructed Wei Qi to keep an eye on Zixuan Pavilion's side.
"I've been taking turns guarding outside Zixuan Pavilion, twelve hours a day, and I haven't relaxed for a moment." The little maid replied tightly, "It's true that I didn't see the third lady come out of the courtyard." ”
Listening to the little girl's affirmative answer, Wei Qi immediately frowned unconsciously, and there were already some doubts in his heart, could it be that Ning Zhiwen had misunderstood Ning Xinyu with a lot of heart.
"Has anyone else in the Zixuan Pavilion come out in the past few days?" Wei Qi still didn't believe that Ning Zhixuan would make a mistake, so he asked again, "In the past few days, except for the third young lady, I think that there have been other people who have come out?" ”
The little maid seriously recalled the people who came out of Zixuan Pavilion in the past few days, and immediately replied: "Because the eldest lady was scolded by the cane for fifty boards, and the third lady has always been friendly with the eldest lady, so the third lady will send the little maid to Qionghua Pavilion to bring snacks to the eldest lady every three or five days." ”
Wei Qi asked again: "Who will the third miss send to deliver snacks to the eldest lady every time?" ”
The little maid replied: "Every time, Miss Yuwei, who is next to the third lady, leads the two little maids to bring snacks to the eldest lady." ”
Wei Qifu asked again, "Have you followed up to take a closer look?" ”
The little maid listened to Wei Qi's words, and said with a look of horror on her face: "Now this prime minister's mansion is full of the eyes of the eldest lady, if it weren't for our young lady's thoughtfulness, we were arranged in other courtyards in advance to be on errands, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to stand here and monitor Zixuan Pavilion's every move now." If our identities are exposed, we will die on the wall, and I am afraid that we will ruin Miss's overall plan. ”
Long before entering the palace to participate in the chrysanthemum banquet, Ning Zhiyun secretly placed the clever little maids in Yunxi Pavilion in Ning Moru's Fanying Pavilion and Ning Wanran's Cuiwei Pavilion as errands.
Wei Qizi knows the difficult situation in the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion now, if one is accidentally noticed by Ning Xinyu that someone is following, it will be a catastrophe for the person who is following, and those little maids will not dare to follow easily.
At the end of the seventh day, he ordered: "Another day, if Yuwei, who is next to the third lady, goes to deliver snacks to the eldest lady, remember to send someone to Fanying Pavilion and only give me a voice." ”
The little maid hurriedly responded: "When the young lady left, she had already told us to listen to you in everything, if Miss Yuwei next to the third young lady went to send snacks to the eldest lady again, I immediately sent someone to Fanying Pavilion to spread the news." ”
The Weiqi in the Zuo Xiang's Mansion had already followed Ning Zhixuan's instructions to keep an eye on Ning Xinyu in the Zixuan Pavilion, and Su Xin, who had taken refuge in Prince Heng's mansion, was also concerned about everyone in the Zuo Xiang's mansion.
Now that she and Ning Zhixuan are not in the mansion, she doesn't know if the seven who stay in the mansion will be able to take on the heavy responsibility of protecting the grandmothers and little maids in the Zuo Xiang's mansion.
Those grandmothers and little maids in Yunxi Pavilion are all some hard-working people that Ning Zhixuan collected in the imperial capital city according to the memories of her previous life when she was in trouble.
It was already moonlight outside, and as long as he thought that Shangguan Hanyue would enter Prince Heng's mansion to visit the sick tomorrow, Su Xin was already sleepy.
Su Xin got up from the couch and lit the lamp, and Forsythia, who was guarding the outer room, hurriedly got up and asked, "Miss Su Xin, but you are not feeling well again?" ”
Su Xin put on a dress and got up, and said to the outside: "I'm fine, but I can't sleep, I want to get up and take a walk." ”
Forsythia asked again, "There is a supper in the kitchen, can the girl use a supper before going to sleep?" ”
Su Xin refused: "Don't bother, I'll get up and take a walk, you don't have to worry about me, hurry back to the couch and sleep." ”
Forsythia, who was guarding the outer room, reminded Su Xin: "It's autumn now, and the dew is heavy at night, so the girl carefully don't catch a cold." ”
Su Xin replied: "Got it, you go to sleep quickly." ”
Listening to Yuxuan's inner room, Su Xin was completely sleepy, and Shangguan Qingqiao in the Cangzhu Garden was also standing in the backyard watching the emerald green and tall phoenix bamboos.
The phoenix bamboo in the Cangzhu Garden where Shangguan Qingqiao lived in Prince Heng's mansion was planted by Shangguan Qingqiao himself, and the difference with the front yard was not that the color was more green, but that most of the phoenix bamboos were slender, so Leng Qing deliberately said that day he would go to Cangzhu Garden to dig some thick phoenix bamboos for Huiyue.
Shangguan Qingqiao knew that Shangguan Hanyue swaggered into Prince Heng's mansion to visit the sick, and its purpose must be to prepare for Ning Zhiyun's plan to fight back.
Shangguan Qingqiao, who has never been alone, will not worry about anyone in his heart, but this time he can't help but be a little worried, worried that if tomorrow's plan fails, Ning Zhixuan and Su Xin are afraid that it will be difficult to die well.
Because tomorrow is the day when Shangguan Hanyue brings the news of Ning Zhixuan, Shangguan Qingyu is not the only one who has no sleep tonight, and he is not sleepy even with cold feelings, and he unconsciously walked outside Tingyuxuan, where Su Xin lived.
Leng Qing has served by Shangguan Qingqiao's side since he was a child, and he never thought that in this life, he would have thoughts other than guarding Shangguan Qingqing's safety.
Leng Qing is called Leng Qing, but he is not a real cold-hearted and ruthless person, others think that his temperament is as cold as Shangguan Qingqing, but everyone who is familiar with him knows that Leng Qing is a gentle person with a heart, otherwise he would not protect Hongyun like his brother.
Leng Qing jumped on the beams of the room, and when she saw that the light was still on in Su Xin's room, she knew in her heart that she was also worried about tomorrow.
Now the eyes of the entire imperial capital are almost fixed on Shangguan Hanyue, who can spare his life for Ning Zhiyun, and there is no longer known how many spies sent by the imperial concubine and the Bai family are lurking outside Prince Yu's mansion, whether someone enters Prince Yu's mansion or Shangguan Hanyue goes out, there will be countless pairs of eyes behind him.
Don't say that it is Shangguan Hanyue's Prince Yu's Mansion, that is, there are countless pairs of eyes lurking outside Shangguan Qingyue's Prince Heng's Mansion, and the imperial concubine and Shangguan Qingyu have always had a disagreement, so naturally they want to send someone to keep an eye on Prince Heng's Mansion at all times.
At the beginning, Su Xin's smooth entry into Prince Heng's Mansion was all due to the fire of the Qingtian Palace, which attracted everyone's attention, and now it is almost impossible to hide the eyes of so many people outside the mansion and quietly send Su Xin out of the mansion to connect with Shangguan Hanyue.
Even if Su Xin can be sent out of Prince Heng safely, although the imperial capital is large, there is no real safe place, if Su Xin is accidentally found by the imperial concubine and the Bai family, he will definitely be arrested as a bargaining chip to threaten Ning Zhixuan's submission.
Leng Qing looked at the moonlight, and estimated that it would soon be the third watch, and after a while, he saw Shangguan Hanyue, dressed in a blue brocade robe, falling in the courtyard of Tingyuxuan.
The reason why Shangguan Hanyue sent a message to Prince Heng's Mansion several days in advance was to draw everyone's attention away.
Prince Heng Shangguan Qingyue was affected by the eldest lady of the Zuo Xiangfu, and had no choice but to hide in the mansion by calling himself sick, but at this time, Shangguan Hanyue, who had always been on bad terms with Shangguan Qingyu, gave a message to Prince Heng's mansion, and everyone naturally thought that Prince Yu Shangguan Hanyue was holding back something bad to deal with Prince Heng Shangguan Qingyun.
Changchun Palace in Ziyun City.
"Why hasn't the mother slept yet?" When the night moire entered the inner room, he saw the imperial concubine sitting on the edge of the bed with a dress, "It's autumn now, and the mother has suffered the cold carefully." ”
"Moire, what kind of medicine did you say Prince Yu was selling in the gourd?" The imperial concubine frowned and said, "Now that the imperial capital knows that Qing'er is affected by Hua'er, this is why he is hiding in the mansion and wants to avoid this limelight. ”
"With what hurtful thoughts Prince Yu has." Seeing that the imperial concubine couldn't sleep because of this matter, Yunwen followed and persuaded, "No matter what harmful thoughts Prince Yu has, the prince has no handle in his hands. ”
"That being said, this palace has always been a little relieved." The imperial concubine was still uneasy and said, "Yunwen, tomorrow Shangguan Hanyue will enter Prince Heng's mansion to visit the sick, tell the people outside to keep an eye on it, and report it quickly if there is any wind and grass." ”
"The slave and maid know, not only the people who are watching outside, but also the spy slave and maid who are watching in the palace, if there is anything wrong, Niangniang must be the first to know the inside story."
"You have always done things properly, and there is nothing uneasy about this palace."
"Niangniang, it's late at night, the slave and maid are waiting for you to sleep peacefully."
Shangguan Hanyue sent the worship post to Prince Heng's mansion with a swagger, the purpose was to make the imperial concubine guess his sinister intentions and have trouble sleeping.
Su Xin saw that it was the third watch, and then walked to the door and lit the worry-free incense that had been prepared in advance, which was Ning Zhixuan's latest improved incense, which could make people unconscious for an hour but would not leave dizziness sequelae.
After opening the door to confirm that the forsythia on the bed in the outer room was asleep, Su Xin cautiously walked to the window and learned to call the cuckoo three times.
Shangguan Hanyue, who was guarding outside the window, heard the cuckoo call coming from inside the house, and had already responded to the sound of three long and two short five window snaps on the window.
Su Xin didn't dare to prop up the window until she heard the sound of three long and two short knocking on the window outside the window, and whispered to the outside: "The inside has been arranged, the prince can come in." ”
