The two stepped into the courtyard of Xiaoyao Hou one after the other.

I saw Chen accompanying Xiaoyaohou, and both of them looked solemn.

"Yan'er, you're here." Xiaoyao Hou glanced at Gu Yanbai, and caught a glimpse of Mingyue Creek following him: "Xiaoxi is also here." ”

Ming Yuexi nodded, and then followed Gu Yanbai to Chen's side.

"Father, are you feeling better?" Gu Yanbai has been busy with the affairs of the court in recent days, and he hasn't come to see Xiaoyao Hou for a long time, and he feels very guilty in his heart.

Xiaoyaohou nodded, knowing the purpose of his coming, he got straight to the point: "I heard that the crown prince was locked up by the emperor." ”

"Exactly."

Seeing the father and son talking about national affairs, Chen took the medicine bowl that Xiaoyao Hou had drunk and exited the room, and did not forget to take a look at Mingyue Creek before leaving.

The meaning of that look was probably to take care of Gu Yanbai.

Ming Yuexi nodded slightly, and then turned her gaze to Xiaoyaohou.

"Yan'er, don't worry, my father will do his best to help you in this matter."

"It's just that we need to rescue the prince at the moment." Gu Yanbai said a little anxiously.

But then, Xiaoyao Hou denied his idea.

The crown prince is the emperor's son after all, even if the matter is true, it should not be what will happen.

On the contrary, if these courtiers overstep their responsibilities, I am afraid that they will be the ones who will really be held responsible.

"So what does Father think we should do?"

"Wait and see."

"Wait and see."

Xiaoyao Hou and Mingyuexi spoke in unison.

Mingyuexi glanced at Xiaoyao Hou with some embarrassment and apologized for her rudeness.

Xiaoyaohou didn't care very much, but was attracted by Mingyuexi's bold strategy.

At present, they are in a clear position, and there are many disadvantages, and only by standing still and waiting for the enemy's next plan can they be prepared, and even take the initiative to attack.

After some discussion, Gu Yanbai seemed to understand something, and decided to do as his father said, and hold his troops first.

However, he is not tied up, and the master's side may also be a clue.

On the way back, Gu Yanbai didn't say a word, but Mingyuexi couldn't breathe.

She couldn't help but break the low pressure between the two: "You say, how about we start to find out from the master?" ”

Gu Yanbai turned his head and glanced at Mingyue Creek.

I didn't expect her mind to be so lively.

He leaned Mingyuexi against the rockery on the side, and looked at her with straight eyes: "Mingyuexi, you have really refreshed my opinion of you over and over again." ”

Mingyuexi was frightened by his sudden move, and her whole person shrank into a ball.

After a long time, she stammered, "You... You... You don't know a lot about me! ”

After Gu Yanbai heard this, he put his face closer to her: "Then are you willing to be understood by me?" ”

Time seemed to stand still at this moment, and Mingyuexi could even hear her own heartbeat.

Just when she thought she was about to fall, Lu Min'er, who had not seen her for many days, ran in, and it was enough to break the conversation between the hungry two.

Two minutes later, Lu Min'er repented for her inopportune appearance.

"I'm sorry Xiaoxi, I didn't know about the two of you..."Lu Min'er sat on the stone bench, looked at Mingyuexi, whose face was a little unnatural, and scratched her head.

"It's fine!"

"It's fine."

Mingyuexi saw that Gu Yanbai said the same thing to herself, and turned her head to look at him.

In Lu Min'er's eyes, this scene became Hashimoto who was infatuated with each other. More and more, she felt that her shining light bulb needed to be taken away. However, the thought that I came for something did not make me feel embarrassed.

She cleared her throat, then glanced at Ming Yuexi, who was blushing into persimmons, and said, "Xiaoxi, do you know that there has been a big incident in the DPRK recently. ”

"What?"

"The prince was corrupt and bribed, and was locked up by the emperor."

Lu Min'er also learned about it from her brother by chance. Speaking unintentionally, the listener was intentional, and Gu Yanbai suddenly felt that he seemed to be the last person to know about it.

"I heard that the emperor is furious and wants to eradicate *** feathers one after another." Lu Min'er said with her teeth and claws, her expression was extremely cute.

Gu Yanbai felt that this matter could not be delayed any longer, so he said goodbye to the two of them and prepared to go to Master Du's house.

When they arrived at Du Mansion, the subordinates at the door had been waiting for a long time, and they led Gu Yanbai directly to Du Ziqiao's study.

Seeing that Gu Yanbai hurriedly dared to come, Du Ziqiao bent down and saluted: "Little Hou Ye." ”

"Do you have a plan?" Gu Yan got straight to the point, and Du Ziqiao naturally knew what he was referring to: "I'm afraid this matter is not urgent." ”

"How so?" Gu Yanbai saw that he had a statement with his father, and he also understood a little bit in his heart.

Du Ziqiao told him that the emperor had always known that the prince was friendly with him, and if he jumped out to speak for the prince at this moment, the emperor would definitely blame him, and maybe he would also confirm the prince's name of corruption and bribery.

There are already few cronies of the prince, and if they are arrested again, then no one will be able to save the prince, let alone clear the charges.

"You and I both know the prince's temperament, and he will not do such ugly things, so what we have to do now is to collect evidence and wait for the opportunity."

Du Ziqiao calmly analyzed the pros and cons of the matter, and Gu Yanbai nodded.

He came over today to find out Du Ziqiao's attitude towards the prince's imprisonment.

In this way, it seems that he is really following the prince, and Gu Yanbai is also relieved.

After leaving Du's mansion, he went to Liu Shangshu's house non-stop.

Coincidentally, Liu Shangshu also seemed to know that he was coming, but his attitude was diametrically opposed to Du Ziqiao, and he ordered his subordinates to close the door tightly and not accept any guests.

When Gu Yanbai saw his attitude, he became suspicious.

In the past, this Liu Shangshu seemed to be very close to someone, and he couldn't remember who it was for a while.

After thinking about it for a long time, when he saw Mingyuexi and Xia Nanfeng standing together, he remembered the name of that person - Xia Nanfeng.

"What are you doing here?" Gu Yanbai saw Mingyuexi and Xia Nanfeng walking side by side on the street, and his heart was full of doubts.

I haven't seen her for a few days, how can she be so close to His Second Highness?

"This is Xiao Xia, my savior." Mingyuexi introduced Gu Yanbai lightly, looking at the surprised expression on his face, the conjecture in his heart settled.

I'm afraid this Xia Nanfeng is a member of the royal family.

"Xiaoxi, this must be the big devil you often mention, right?"

Xia Nanfeng looked straight at Gu Yanbai's eyes, and his expression was calm.

Something happened to the prince, and he naturally wanted to see what this most loyal dogleg thought.

"The Great Devil?" Gu Yan glanced at Mingyuexi, then pulled her to his side, and clenched his fists in his chest: "Thank you for taking care of this brother, it's just that Mingyuexi is a person from my Hou Mansion, and I hope that Brother Tai will take care of it." ”
