The breeze slowly came and the petals fell, like a fragrant flower rain gently sprinkled with the beauty of the hair, the two women sat opposite each other, the blue and white clothes in this garden of spring but felt elegant, away from the troubles of the world, the house in the suburbs was full of flowers, accompanied by wisps of tea fragrance, the two were silent for a long time.

"Sister, do we still have a chance to get here?" Liu Ruyan lowered her eyebrows and brushed the delicate flowers, and asked leisurely.

I saw that the opposite was the concubine Qi of the Eight Princes' Mansion who was highly suspected by Yunshang and Jinqi, and Qi Rumeng, the leader of the Miaoyin Pavilion. Qi Rumeng took off the shrewdness and flamboyance of the whole day, and muttered for a moment: "Ruyan, you and I sisters have been in a high position in the Miaoyin Pavilion for many years, you should know." ”

A desolate smile appeared at the corner of Liu Ruyan's mouth: "Sister, if there is nothing left in Rumeng that day, I hope that my sister can leave a maid position for me and Qing'er in the Eight Princes' Mansion." ”

Qi Rumeng looked at Liu Ruyan's sad appearance, and said gently: "The Eight Princes' Mansion will always leave a place for you, it will be your home, your home and Qing'er's home." ”

"Thank you, sister" Liu Ruyan smiled movingly, turned her head to look at the sundial and said: "It's not too early, I'll go back first, thank you sister for your hospitality today." ”

"Well, you can go back first." Qi Rumeng nodded with a smile, watching Liu Ruyan's slender body disappear outside the door, sighing slightly, looking at the peach and plum in the garden, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Ruyan, for your sake, I will also try to keep the Eight Kings Mansion, otherwise the Eight Kings Mansion will be forgotten by everyone and become a dilapidated mansion that has declined. But like smoke, can I really do it? When we succeed, is it still worthwhile? No, you still have it, the master needs you, he needs your Tingxue Yuan, and when he can take you to decay, can you really retire at that time?

After all, we are just pawns on the chessboard, and those who hold the chess can be unbearable.

Qi Rumeng looked down at the tea that was quietly sinking in the hot soup, he would not be free for the rest of his life, when would he be able to enjoy the real happiness with Ruyan, how beautiful this courtyard should be at that time.

"Alliance leader, the eldest princess and His Royal Highness the imperial grandson have just returned home, is the alliance leader ......?"

"Click"

With a crisp sound, the tea suddenly splashed the hem of the maid's skirt, and the hot tea and the broken porcelain bottle pierced the light skirt of the spring and crossed the delicate skin, and the maid was startled, avoiding the fragments and hurriedly knelt down: "The alliance leader is angry." ”

"Oh, are you going to tell me where the concubine is angry? Well? Qi Rumeng swept his eyes sharply, and approached the maid's life with a chilling aura.

The maid didn't feel the cold sweat in her palms and whispered: "The side concubine is angry, the eldest princess and the eldest grandson ask to travel, and the slave and maid dare not stop it." ”

"Oh, you're wronged?" Qi Rumeng asked coldly, with a hint of a smile on the corner of his mouth.

The maid hurriedly kowtowed and said, "The side concubine forgives her sins"

Qi Rumeng smiled coldly, walked down slowly from the bamboo couch, bent down slightly, lifted the woman's cheek hard, and sneered: "Concubine Ben asked you, have you met anyone on this road?" ”

The maid said affirmatively: "No, the eldest princess has been disguised, please rest assured." ”

Qi Rumeng shook the woman's face hard, and said with a smile: "I will spare you this time, remember, I don't want to have another concubine who went with the prince in this house, right?" ”

"Yes, yes, the slave and maid will be carefully guarded in the future"

"Guard?"

"No, it's to serve the princess and grandson carefully." The maid had just returned. Today, with a total of four maids between the two, she has the largest position and the longest face, originally wanted to ask for credit, but she didn't want to be reprimanded by the alliance leader, she didn't want to die, and she didn't want to be buried directly by the alliance leader as a concubine. Recently, because of the disobedience of the concubines, two people have died at the hands of the alliance leader. The rest of them are miserable too.

"Well, let's go down." Qi Rumeng looked at the woman's reaction coldly, fortunately nothing happened this time, if it was discovered intentionally, the master's efforts would not be in vain.

"Alliance leader, the second aunt of the Marquis of Ningguo Mansion sent a letter saying that Li Chengyin was detained by the forbidden army because of the arrangement of the royal family."

"Li Chengyin? Let's bet on it. Qi Rumeng really didn't bother to care about him, and said indifferently. This Li Chengyin is quite in the way, and told the mother whether to do it or not. ”

This Li Chengyin has not succeeded enough to fail, and it is better to end it as soon as possible to prevent future troubles.

"Yes"

Li Chengyin didn't know that the person he hoped for the most wanted wanted to kill himself. Of course, he's probably in pain now. The whip on his body made him cry and howl.

"Let go of the master, you abuse lynching! Yes! Li Chengyin shouted extremely unwillingly, these people tied up the whip without asking anything, and said that he was the illegitimate son of the eighth prince, even if it involved the royal bloodline, but he should be treated with a good voice, and he said that he could find Concubine Qi to confront him, why didn't these people listen.

How did Li Chengyin know that this was not a forbidden army prison at all, but the private prison of Tianji, and all he saw in front of him were Tianji that Jinqi had accepted. For this guy who wants to fight Yunshang's idea, he is not polite at all, he deliberately doesn't ask anything and then fights. Disgusted while beating, this is the weakest whip in the private prison, the dead soldiers and enemy soldiers in this private prison have been imprisoned, so I can't help beating, but it is the first.

After receiving about thirty lashes, Li Chengyin's anger was long gone, most of his clothes were in tatters, his originally delicate skin was also red and purple, and he begged for mercy in a hoarse voice: "Uncles, uncles spare their lives."

"Who are you?" Qi Miao asked coldly. When Li Chengyin was in the Zhilan Hall, the whole person was fluttering and excited, and there was a flutter in front of him, so he naturally didn't remember that Yun Sheng was blocking the two of Qi Miao and Qi Han in front of him, and he was only a soldier serving in the forbidden army.

Li Chengyin has not been good at practicing martial arts since he was a child, and he has practiced a trick, so he has never suffered much, not to mention, he has been intoxicated with fireworks and willow lane for such a long time, and he can't help fighting.

"Li Chengyin, the second son of the Marquis of Ningguo"

The "snap" whip was whipped down mercilessly, and Li Chengyin, who was hit directly, screamed.

"I ask again, who are you!" Qi Miao looked at Li Chengyin viciously, and the disdain in his heart did not diminish at all.

"Li Chengyin of the Marquis of Ningguo's Mansion" Li Chengyin swallowed his saliva, looked at the whip that Qi Miao was about to fall over, and said loudly: "The late eighth prince's private son"

The corners of Qi Miao's mouth twitched, and she sneered: "Oh, the eighth prince's illegitimate son, the eighth prince is deceased, why didn't I see you go to find relatives that day, call me, and call until you tell the truth." ”

"Don't, don't fight, uncle, ah!"

Qi Miao walked out of the dungeon without looking back, the smell in the dungeon was really unpleasant, and he suddenly breathed the fresh air outside, but he felt a lot more comfortable, of course, the most comfortable thing was to look at Li Chengyin's whipping bag, if he could survive the dozen or so criminal laws in this dungeon, he might be able to look up to him by two points. Sure enough, it's waste.

Qi Miao walked out of the dungeon and went to the study, at this moment Princess Yunshang, Jinqi, and Li Chengqi, the prince of the Marquis of Ningguo, were all here.

"What Jinqi said is true, strange, I don't see any arrogance in the second brother in the house, although it is quite unsuccessful, but I didn't expect to murder the princess, it was my negligence, please forgive the princess." Li Chengqi said respectfully.

"Brother Chengqi doesn't have to be like this, the three of us have known each other since childhood, since even Brother Chengqi said so, you can imagine how deep Li Chengyin is hidden." Yunshang said with a smile. Li Chengqi is the son of the Marquis of Ningguo's Mansion, and in his previous life, he failed Sister Linyi and harmed him, and he really can't blame him in this life. What's more, he and Li Chengyin once shared the same bed, and they didn't know their tiger and wolf hearts.

Jinqi looked at Yunshang gently, turned her head to look at Li Chengqi and said, "Is there anything suspicious about his background?" ”

"I just heard that it reminded me that this second aunt seems to have been given by the eighth prince, as for the rest, I'm afraid I have to ask Linyi, I don't know about the backyard." Li Chengqi said in a deep voice. On the one hand, he didn't care about the things in the backyard, and on the other hand, he said that his aunt was half an elder after all, so it was a little inconvenient to inquire.

"Well, I'll visit Sister Linyi another day." Yunshang said with a smile.

"The fact that the second emperor brother conspired against him is suspicious, can Concubine Zhen have any doubts?" Jinqi asked in a low voice, since it is the person that Yunshang cares about, then you might as well give Ningguohou Mansion a wake-up call, and save Yunshang from being sad.

"I didn't tell Linyi about this, Linyi just got pregnant, so it is not appropriate to be angry, and I asked the princess to help hide it." Thinking of Linyi's body, Li Chengqi couldn't help but be a little worried, and said that the first three months were the most dangerous, and the whole house blocked the news, but this was hidden for a while, and he couldn't hide it for a lifetime, so he begged His Royal Highness to get rid of the crime as soon as possible.

Hearing this, Yunsheng's hanging heart also let go, originally looked at Lin Xuan frowning, and thought about why Ning Guohou's Mansion didn't even have a letter, and didn't even reply to Lin Xuan's post, thinking about it, I was afraid that Sister Linyi's sister would have a fetal gas, so she stopped, but fortunately, nothing happened.

"It's a good thing that Sister Linyi is happy, I think Sister Linyi is a junior, and I don't know, why don't you ask Mrs. Wang to solve my doubts? I asked my mother to help me post. Yunshang asked with a smile.

"That's very good."

The three of them gossiped for a while before Li Chengqi said goodbye and left, looking at the back of Li Chengqi leaving, apology appeared in Yunshang's eyes, this humble gentleman in his previous life did not complain to himself until the end, and quietly packed up his things and left the Ningguo Mansion, only Sister Linyi came to the courtyard sadly, crying blood: "You will regret it, from the day you marry into the Ning Guohou Mansion, you should regret it!" ”

Yes, I have repented of it in this life.

Suddenly, his body was light, and a warm embrace woke Yunshang from his memories, and he raised his head slightly to meet Jinqi's concerned eyes.

"Seems upset?" Jinqi asked in a low voice, the gentle voice was like a warm spring, and the corners of Yunsheng's mouth raised, you may be my salvation.

"It's just a little relieved, I originally thought that the Marquis Mansion of Ning Guo would resist the rebellion of the second emperor brother, it seems that I thought too much." Yunshang smiled and said, "Brother Chengqi said that the second aunt was given by the Eight Princes' Mansion, isn't it ......?"

The corners of Jinqi's mouth lifted and said, "Do you think that the second aunt is a person from Miaoyin Pavilion?" ”

"Hmm," Yunshang nodded.

"Just look it up." Jinqi smiled and said, "Come in." ”

Leng Xuan and Qi Miao searched for a voice and said, "I've seen the master, Princess Yunshang." "I've met Miss, Third Highness"

Jinqi smiled lightly at Yunsheng, and glanced at Qi Miao, who was standing there, drinking tea by herself.

"Li Chengyin's identity is suspicious, Aunt Ning Guohou's Mansion is the best breakthrough, the two of you go to verify, and reply to the palace in two days." Yunshang raised his voice.

"Yes, my subordinates obey."
