Mingchen smiled faintly, played with the folding fan and said: "Maybe it's really the second girl in the dart game, the people who can make Miss Song remember, I'm afraid it's only those noble girls, just a woman in the rivers and lakes, you don't know." ”

"General Bai came over at this time, didn't he notice something and deliberately came to test it?" The woman said again.

Mingchen said: "Perhaps, he left alone for a while, but even if he was suspicious, he couldn't find anything." ”

The woman stood silently for a moment, then bowed and took her leave.

Sitting in the carriage, the maid next to her finally couldn't help but say: "Girl, the slave maid also thinks that the girl just now is very familiar. ”

"We haven't seen that girl from the Shangyang Dart Bureau, so naturally we won't feel familiar, but today this one must be fake." The woman replied.

"Yes, the slave maid also thinks so, that girl can follow General Bai's side, she must be someone General Bai knows. But the slave maid had never heard of a girl beside General Bai, nor had she heard of him being in a close relationship with any woman. ”

"Dansha, this person can not only make us feel familiar, but also get very close to General Bai, isn't it easy to find out her identity?" Song Wantang took off the curtain on his head, and a strange light flashed in his eyes.

"Actually...... The slave maid has a bold guess, do you remember when General Luo Xiao took people to shout outside the gate of Youduwei? Dansha said shrewdly: "It is said that the person who asked General Luo Xiao to take the initiative to stop at that time was a little cook lady in Youduwei. ”

Song Wantang's eyebrows frowned slightly, and he suddenly thought of what happened in Hanling Temple.

"But when we met General Luo Xiao in Hanling Temple that time, it was Father-in-law Bao who accompanied him, did General Luo Xiao call her Miss Lan at that time." The more Dansha spoke, the more he felt that he had guessed correctly, his eyes lit up, and his tone became excited, "Could it be that Grandpa Bao is the rumored cook?" ”

At the mention of the blue baby, a flash of fear flashed in Song Wantang's eyes, and he couldn't help but shudder when he thought of what happened in Yahelou last time.

"Dansha, do you think that General Luo Xiao is really indistinguishable from men and women?" A shadow flashed on Song Wantang's face.

Dansha shook her head, "After seeing the girl's demeanor just now, the slave is sure that she is definitely not a man. Even those attendants in the palace can only twist their postures, and they can't be compared with real women at all. ”

"If she is really a woman...... Song Wantang smiled in a low voice and said, "Then it will be more fun in the future." ”

"What is the girl going to do?" Dansha asked.

Song Wantang said: "Don't worry, you go and confirm it carefully, so as not to make any mistakes and harm yourself." ”

At the same time, in another carriage, the blue baby looked at Bai Xiao and said, "General, do you remember catching a glimpse of the figure on the verandah?" I always felt familiar, but I didn't see the face, and I didn't get the number right. ”

Bai Xiao touched his chin and thought about it, trying to remember that back, but he had little observation of the women he had seen, and he didn't feel that the back was familiar at all.

Lan Baobao saw his expression and knew that he definitely didn't feel this way, so he said: "I thought about it when I was in the other garden just now, that woman left in a hurry, as if she was deliberately avoiding us, which is really a bit of a concern. ”

"Go back, I'll send someone to check on this sword village." Bai Xiao said.

Lan Baobao was quite surprised, she thought that Bai Xiao would definitely not listen to her words, but she didn't expect to make a decision so quickly. Believing her so much, Blue Baby couldn't help but laugh.

It was already evening when she returned to Youduwei, and the blue baby had just jumped out of the carriage, when she suddenly felt someone rushing towards her, turned her head to look, and saw a woman dressed in black and wearing a black hat.

At the same time, the guards at the door and Bai Xiao were vigilant, the two guards held spears to block the woman in black, and Bai Xiao also blocked the blue baby's expression, quietly staring at the suspicious figure.

"Father-in-law Bao, it's me, Shen Ji, I have something to say." The woman in black opened her mouth, her voice was very soft, as if she was afraid of being heard.

Shen Ji? Shen Ji from King Sheng's Mansion, how did she come here? Still dressed like this?

Blue Baby quickly patted Bai Xiao's arm and whispered, "Let's invite her in first, I think she may be here to provide clues." ”

After a while, the three of them sat down in the atrium lobby, and the woman in black still did not take off her black hat, but looking at the direction her body was facing, she should be looking at Bai Xiao.

The blue baby touched his cheek in embarrassment, and said cautiously: "General Bai, can you, please avoid it first?" ”

Bai Xiao furrowed his brows, looked at the woman in black a few more times, and finally left.

As soon as he left, Shen Ji obviously relaxed, and slowly took off her hat, revealing a gorgeous and moving face, but her eyes were particularly cold, and her gestures also carried a sense of pride.

Lan Baobao has only seen her once, and vaguely remembers that she was wearing a very bright and bright dress at that time, and now with this black dress, she actually gives people a kind of aggressive royal sister style.

I have to admit that His Royal Highness King Sheng is very discerning, and the wives and concubines in his house are all very eye-catching, and they are rare beauties when pulled out alone.

"Shen Ji Niangniang." The blue baby bowed and asked, "I don't know what the important thing is for the mother to come over in person?" ”

Shen Ji pursed her lips, as if hesitating, and after a while, her eyebrows and eyes became more and more cold, and finally said with determination: "I deliberately waited for you to come back, I thought about it, and this matter can only be told to you, as long as you can understand me." ”

Lan Baobao was quite surprised, thinking of what happened outside the door just now, it turned out that Shen Ji had been staying here for a long time, just waiting for her to appear.

"It's the villain's honor to be able to relieve the worries of the mother, but it doesn't hurt to say it." Blue Baby said flatteredly.

"It's about Qin...... Sister Concubine's, but before I do that, I have to talk about myself first. After Shen Ji finished speaking, she fell into deep thought again.

Shen Ji was born in a family of military generals, and her ancestors also had great generals, but it was only in her father's generation that the family withered, and her father was just an eight-rank soldier Cao who joined the army in a small town, and his power was low.

Shen Ji became acquainted with Concubine Zhang Qinqin when she was young, and the Zhang family was also in decline at that time, and she nested in a small town with them. It wasn't until that year that His Royal Highness King Sheng passed through their hometown and took a fancy to Zhang Qinqin at a glance, so he included her in the house as a concubine, and it didn't take long for Zhang's father to be promoted, and the Zhang family moved to the capital.

"You may not know that I entered King Sheng's Mansion not because of His Royal Highness King Sheng, but for Qin'er." The corners of Shen Ji's mouth pursed a wry smile, and a trace of warmth gradually appeared in her cold eyebrows, "When I was young, Qin'er was weak and couldn't help it, every time I went out to play, I would be bullied by others, and I protected her every time, so Qin'er has always relied on me, and I also vowed to protect her for the rest of my life." ”

"It wasn't until she was taken away by King Sheng that we separated, and a year later I received a letter from her saying that she was having a very difficult time in the palace and that she wanted me to come and help her. I only thought about it for a day and said yes because I also wanted to stay by Qin'er's side......"

Under Zhang Qinqin's recommendation, King Sheng met Shen Ji who was waiting there in the racecourse, she was born as gorgeous as not as gentle and delicate as other women, and her cold and heroic spirit finally attracted King Sheng.

After that, she successfully entered the palace, she did not ask for the favor of His Royal Highness, she thought about Zhang Qinqin wholeheartedly, and soon helped Zhang Qinqin to rise to the position of concubine. However, King Sheng has a romantic temperament, and his favor for Zhang Qindi only lasted for two or three years before it slowly faded.

Zhang Qinqin has a weak temperament, if it weren't for Shen Ji's help in the past two or three years, she would have fallen out of favor long ago, and she didn't know how to compete. Zhang Qinqin was also forced to enter the Shengwang Mansion back then, and she did not have deep feelings for the amorous Highness beside her, and she did not disdain to compete for favor.

"But I can't bear to see Qin'er being wronged, we also need to have a foothold in the palace, after several times of persuasion to no avail, I can only stand in front of Qin'er to fight, and finally got mixed up with the concubine who is second only to Qin'er."

Shen Ji paused, looked at Lan Baobao and continued: "With the current status of the two of us, those who entered the mansion later are no longer afraid, we just need to guard this position carefully." ”

"You must have a deep relationship with Concubine Niangniang, so when you came to Youduwei today, do you know why Concubine Concubine disappeared?" Blue Baby asked.

A touch of pain flashed in Shen Ji's eyes, she covered her chest with her hands, and whispered: "I always guarded Qin'er before, but this time Qin'er may have left to protect me." ”

Blue Baby's eyes lit up and he hurriedly asked, "What do you know?" ”

"This time, the Shengwang Mansion wants to choose a concubine, His Royal Highness wants to choose one from the backyard, and he already belongs to the side concubine, but the side concubine is not blessed. Later, there were rumors in the palace that His Royal Highness was interested in the concubine, because His Royal Highness often went to the concubine's room in those days, but in fact, Qin'er had no intention of being the concubine, so he recommended me to His Royal Highness. ”

The words came out everywhere, Shen Ji slowly clenched her fists, as if she was angry, "I just need Qin'er's temper, she doesn't want to manage those messy things in the backyard." But not everyone is like her, how many people in the backyard covet the position of the princess, and how many people fall into the well in the open and in the dark. ”

"These Qin'er understand, but she knows that Her Highness no longer cares about her, but she still allows the rumors to intensify, and I know that she is using this method to protect me."

Shen Ji's eyes were red, and she continued with a stiff neck: "I didn't know this, but His Royal Highness was worried about the frequent incidents in the palace recently, and when he went to my room yesterday, he mentioned the matter of Concubine Lizheng, and I just wanted to understand everything Qin'er did for me." ”

"I, I suspect that Qin'er's disappearance is due to the matter of Concubine Lizheng, and someone wants to get rid of her as an obstacle. In fact, I have also looked for Qin'er in private in the past few days, but there are no clues, even a few places that only the two of us frequent, I have also searched for them, but I still haven't found anyone. ”

"If Qin'er didn't hide by herself, she would definitely ...... It's already ......" Shen Ji really didn't have the courage to say it, she was just reddening her eyes, but now she was full of tears.

Lan Baobao looked at her painful expression, and felt that the relationship between Shen Ji and Concubine Shu was a little unusual. And just now Shen Ji also said that she could only talk to her about this matter, could it be because the rumors between her and His Royal Highness made Shen Ji feel that they were the same, and they were both moved by the same sex.

However, these are just her guesses, the other party did not say it explicitly, and it is inconvenient for her to inquire about other people's privacy.

"Who do you think in the palace would want to get rid of the concubine?" Blue Baby asked.

Shen Ji hurriedly put away her tears, sniffed and slowed down for a moment before replying: "I know that my father-in-law has a lot of relationship with Yao Liangdi, but in my opinion, she is the only one in the backyard who has the ability to plan this matter, and besides, there are a few helpers attached to her, especially the Xuanru. ”

"Xuanru?" Blue Baby's eyes flashed, and he pretended to be surprised and asked, "I've seen it twice, and it seems that it is also a non-contentious character." ”

"Don't fight, don't grab?" Shen Ji sneered, "Judging from the number of years she has been in the mansion and her status, she does look like a person who does not fight or rob, but which person who does not fight or grab will be brought into the palace by His Highness for a banquet?" She was not qualified to attend that occasion at all. ”
