The corridor of the temple is tortuous, the palace lights are as bright as day, the lake is frozen in winter, and the pebbles on the paths are snowing.

Under the moonlight, Bai Muguan looked anxious, and his voice was very low: "Brother Ye, the leading singer at the banquet in the Fangcai Palace is unusual, as if she is coming for you." ”

"I also found it inappropriate." Yuwen Ye's sword frowned slightly, and he said in a deep voice, "Yuwen Cheng is still grounded, he doesn't have the ability to put his hand into the Chinese New Year's Eve palace banquet, I haven't figured out who wants to make a move tonight." ”

Bai Muguan blurted out without thinking: "Could it be the Sixth Prince?" ”

What she guessed was also the object of suspicion in his heart, and Yu Wenye couldn't help but sneer: "It's hard to say." If it were him, I was afraid that the Queen Mother would be indispensable behind him. ”

The girl thought for a while, and thought about it: "Brother Ye, why don't we plan it......" Before she began to speak, she saw Yu Wenye suddenly make a gesture to signal her not to make a sound, and she quickly shut up.

At this time, although only the two of them hid in the corner of the corridor and talked privately, the deep palace was full of spies from various families, and they still needed to speak carefully.

I saw that not far from them, a figure hurriedly ran to the west, not even holding the palace lamp, and his behavior seemed to be very sneaky.

Looking at it, Bai Muguan whispered softly: "The back is a bit like Heng Guogong." ”

Yu Wenye raised his eyebrows, and said in a firm tone: "It's him." ”

"There must be something wrong with this man sneaking around, so I'll follow quietly." After speaking, Bai Muguan was about to raise his feet, but he was subconsciously dragged by him.

"Remember to be careful!"

The light emitted by the goose-yellow palace lamp in the corridor reflected his handsome face extremely softly, and the lines of his facial features were perfect and just right. His long eyebrows furrowed slightly, and the starry eyes at the bottom of the well were deeply worried. At this moment, Yu Wenye's appearance was deeply imprinted into Bai Muguan's heart, Lang Jun was like him, and she was willing to swear to the death to follow the soup in this life.

The girl who was stunned smiled and only said two words: "Don't worry." With that, his nimble body disappeared into the darkness.

Yu Wenye turned around and suddenly opened his mouth to shout out two names: "Vermilion Bird, Dragon Sparrow." ”

In an instant, two black-clothed secret guards appeared in the night, both of them were black-clad and masked, and only the sword behind their backs emitted a dark and treacherous light, which was breathtaking. They all saluted respectfully, and their voices were not loud but hidden: "My subordinates have seen the prince." ”

Suzaku and Dragon Bird are both confidants and secret guards who are deeply trusted by Yu Wenye, and the two are not only extremely high in martial arts, but also have their own strengths. Suzaku is proficient in the art of medicine in case of emergency. The dragon bird is good at using poison, especially good at trying to cover up and wait for an opportunity to get out. Placing them in the palace will not only be able to secretly monitor everyone's every move, but also be prepared in case of emergencies like tonight.

Yu Wenye went straight to the topic: "How did you find out?" ”

Suzaku replied succinctly: "Back to Your Highness, the lead dancer at the palace banquet is named Zheng Yuan, who is the singer who was newly selected into the harem from the Jiangnan area this year. Tonight was her first performance, because she danced gracefully, sang melodiously, and was born beautiful, so she was specially ordered to lead the dance to surprise the four seats. ”

Yu Wenye asked in a deep voice: "Since she has not been in the palace for a long time, who has she usually come into contact with?" ”

Suzaku did not hesitate, and replied directly: "As far as her subordinates know, she stays in Yunxi Pavilion where the singer lives every day, and her words and deeds are not abnormal, and she has never had close contact with anyone. ”

Acting so carefully and prepared, he is obviously not an ordinary person.

Yu Wenye snorted coldly, and said to himself with a gloomy face: "In this way, they have already discussed it before she entered the palace, lest it be tricky!" ”

"The subordinates dare to ask more, I don't know where His Highness saw through this woman's flaws?" The dragon bird next to him couldn't help but have doubts in his heart, and asked. As secret guards, they shouldn't have said much, just faithfully carried out the tasks ordered by their masters, but they have followed Yu Wenye for many years, and the relationship between master and servant is extraordinary. Tonight, the prince gave them an impromptu order to investigate the singer quickly, and without warning, they were really surprised.

Hearing this, Yu Wenye smiled slightly, and did not blame him for not answering.

In fact, his biggest judgment is based on intuition. As soon as the singer named Zheng Yuan showed her face tonight, she seemed to have unintentionally met his eyes, and he saw through the subtlety of disguise in her soft eyes. After that, she performed indulgently and quietly glanced at him from time to time, which made Yu Wenye more and more suspicious. Only then did he use his own channels to quietly order his own people to send a message to Suzaku Longque and hurriedly investigate Zheng Yuan.

Obviously, Queen Tong was also aware of it, so she deliberately ordered Ye Shiying to follow him out of the table. It's just that he gave Bai Muguan a look before leaving the table, and the two came here tacitly to talk privately, and Ye Shiying couldn't find it for a while.

Gathering his thoughts, Yu Wenye lowered his voice and asked again: "Where is this woman now?" ”

This time, the dragon bird preemptively said: "Rest in the ear room of the side hall, and the subordinates will send someone to watch her." ”

"You guys fly pigeons out of the palace tonight, and you must thoroughly find out the details before Zheng Yuan enters the palace in the next few days." After giving the order, Yu Wenye waved his hand and said, "Stand down." ”

The Suzaku and the Dragon Sparrow responded together and disappeared into the night.

Now that the time has passed, there is still about an hour left after the palace banquet is over. Thinking of this, Yu Wenye turned around and walked towards the main hall.

After turning the corner and taking about two hundred steps, a shadow appeared in front of him.

"Blessed is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

The soft and charming voice came slowly, Yu Wenye raised his eyes and looked directly at the young woman standing in front of him, only to see her thin skirt covering her body, the cold wind blowing her light skirt on a cold snowy night, and the loose bun only wore a white jade carved pearl to shake, showing her charming and beautiful by the moonlight.

Yu Wenye glanced at it, and already recognized her as Zheng Yuan, the leading dancer at tonight's palace banquet. remembered that Long Que just said that she was resting in the side hall, and this kung fu came to him in a blink of an eye, which should not be underestimated.

"No courtesy."

He was about to leave, but as expected, he was entwined by a silky voice behind him: "Your Highness, please stay." ”

Yu Wenye stopped, looking back and smiling: "What's the matter with you?" ”

"The slave maid Zheng Yuan has been waiting for His Highness here for a long time, and finally I am looking forward to His Highness." Bending her knees slightly, Zheng Yuan's waist is soft, and her voice is naturally coquettish.

aroused Yu Wenye's interest: "How do you know that this prince is here?" ”

Her eyes flickered, and she whispered, "If you have a heart, you will naturally know." ”

"What should you be guilty of peeping into the whereabouts of your master?" He took a sharp step forward, his gaze pressing on her.

Zheng Yuan leaned forward and approached him, the snow white on his chest under the tulle robe loomed, and he said with affection: "The slave and the maid have a heart, if you say the word peeping, the slave and the maid will never dare." ”

She was confident that no man could refuse such a beautiful woman, even if it was just a spring breeze.

Yu Wenye's eyes were deep and indistinguishable, and he suddenly sighed lightly: "There are no colorful phoenix wings, and there is a little bit of clarity in the heart." ”

"The slave maid has long admired His Royal Highness's majestic spirit, and in terms of the slave's selfishness, today's palace banquet dance is actually for His Royal Highness. However, the slave and maid knew that they were humble and did not dare to recommend themselves to serve the pillow closely, but asked His Royal Highness to be merciful enough to keep the slave and maid by his side. No matter how bad it is, if you can get closer to His Royal Highness, you can say hello sooner or later, even if you are the last lowly slave of the East Palace, the slave maid is also willing. With that, Zheng Yuan raised a pair of tearful beautiful eyes and looked at him intently. She is a rare beauty, and her appearance is not inferior to that of the crown princess, and it is impossible for the prince not to have a trace of feeling.

Yu Wenye was indeed looking at her carefully, she was also born with apricot eyes, which was somewhat similar to Bai Muguan's smart apricot eyes. It's just that Zheng Yuan's eyes are far less clear and simple than Bai Muguan's, on the contrary, her eyes are full of fog under the coquettishness, which is unpredictable.

Thinking of this, Yu Wenye couldn't help but scold himself secretly, how could he compare the humble singer in front of him with his beloved Guanguan? No, all the women in the world can't compare to him.

Thinking of Guanguan, he unconsciously hooked his thin lips, and smiled: "Your courage is really not small, you dare to speak so bluntly, aren't you afraid that this prince will be angry?" ”

Zheng Yuan's hands folded in front of his chest trembled slightly, and thin sweat oozed from his palms. His face was extremely calm, his red lips were curled shallowly, and he said: "Your Highness is the pride of the sky, and the slave is naturally afraid of His Highness's anger." But the slave dares to speculate that you will not be angry, because you are a man of affection and righteousness, and no man in the world will dislike a woman who loves him wholeheartedly. ”

The sixth prince once said that her greatest capital is this beautiful skin. Although the prince is not close to women, as long as he is not a broken sleeve, it will be impossible to resist such a bold, soft and unique singer. Yes, she dared to block the prince's way tonight, it was indeed bold.

Yu Wenye raised his eyebrows, reached out and pinched her slender chin and lifted it gently, his starry eyes were unpredictable: "Then you are wholeheartedly admiring Prince Ben?" ”

Seeing that he was gradually taking the bait, Zheng Yuan pretended to be in tears, but his eyes were full of charm, and he seemed to be a little choked: "The slave is full of admiration for His Royal Highness and is willing to die for the king, otherwise how dare you risk death tonight to block your way, and you have to confess your heart." Your Highness cannot doubt the slave and maid's admiration for you. ”

"In this case, the crown prince will not live up to your love, and he will ask your father for you back tonight. If the beauty is like this, the red sleeves add incense and dance under the lamp, which is very good. After speaking, Yu Wenye showed a sly and playful but extremely handsome smile.

Instead of waiting for her to use all her means to make a storm and enter the East Palace, it was better for him to take the initiative to bring her back and take the initiative.

Zheng Yuan hurriedly bowed down: "Thank you, Your Highness, for your success." She almost cried tears of joy on the surface, but she felt deeply uneasy inside. Isn't it too easy? She didn't bother at all, and the prince agreed to stay with her. Is it because the prince is not as clean and self-conscious as the world thinks, and is he attracted by her beauty, or is there another reason?

Yu Wenye pretended not to notice that she was distracted, and ordered: "You pick it up, this prince will ask your father to go to the East Palace to be an artist." ”

Zheng Yuan was overjoyed, her eyes were full of joy, and she hurriedly responded with a smile: "The slave and maid will follow His Highness's arrangement." ”
