Chapter 8: The Assassins
Yu Xinling woke up to find herself lying on a slightly unfamiliar bed, the tip of her nose smelling sandalwood all over the room, she sat up a little dazed and looked around. Even though it was late at night, it didn't prevent her from observing the room, which was both familiar and unfamiliar.
The room is very spacious, and the layout is very simple, with a large bed carved in pear wood, a dressing counter, a table in the center, and a desk by the window...... It's a clear display, Yu Xinling looked at it for a long time before she recognized that this was the plum garden of Tianxiangju, and specially left the plum garden for herself......
"Rain." After a good night's sleep, she almost forgot all the troubles before going to bed, but at this time, who can say that she will not collapse.
"The slave is here." Ying Yu pushed the door from outside the door and approached, "What's wrong with the master?" ”
"I ...... My room ......" she wanted to cry without tears.
Ying Yu looked around the room and said, "Oh, the shopkeeper is cleaning up today, so move all your things to other places first." The bed tent is also temporarily made of other freshly washed tents. ”
"Really?" Yu Xinling breathed a sigh of relief, "I was scared to death, I thought my little baby was gone." ”
Ying Yu wiped the cold sweat from her forehead, "It's time now, can the master go back to the palace?" ”
"You don't urge me to go back on weekdays...... Yu Xinling raised her eyes to look at her, "What's wrong?" ”
"Ying Liu said, the fifth prince is waiting for you in the Autumn Palace, and he refuses to go back no matter how he coaxes him, saying that he has found something, and he has to tell you in person."
"Joan?" Yu Xinling was slightly surprised, "This kid is stubborn, after all, he is an eight-year-old child." ”
Seeing that Ying Yu wanted to speak and stopped, she said again, "If there is anything else to say, I will not punish you." ”
"Today, the lord of Ogi County met Princess Zhaoyang when he went back, it is said that she has been asking Princess Zhaoyang about the cause of death of King Qi, and then she fainted or Princess Zhaoyang carried her back, and after waking up, she said I'm sorry for you, master, and I want to hang myself to apologize......"
"This is a bad smell once in a hundred years, why do you look like you want to say something and stop, just say something directly."
"Han Wei came to report, saying that I don't know what the red girl said to the lord of Ogi, and the lord of Ogi is now ...... I hate you so much. ”
"Huh?" Yu Xinling's eyes widened, "Me again?" Where did I offend them? ”
"I don't know, that Honggu seems to have a strong hostility towards you, and a lot of what the Lord of Ogi has done in the past few years has come from this Honggu."
"When King Qi died, I didn't seem to have been born yet, it's been fifteen years, and I'm only fourteen years old......" Yu Xinling held her cheeks, "People's hearts are really complicated. ”
After a pause, she got up and tidied up her clothes slightly, and said, "Let's go, let's go back to the palace, Qiong'er's child won't leave until he waits." ”

Wen Qiye listened to the secret guard tell everything today, and there was almost invisible fierceness in her eyes, "You say, why did she bully Princess Zhaoran for no reason?" ”
"My subordinates don't know."
"Isn't that simpler, I don't know what to do," Wen Qiye suddenly smiled, that smile clearly warmed the time, but it made people shiver for no reason, he continued, "Go, kill your mouth." ”
"That'...... The woman who is going to marry the Second Highness should be kept? ”
"Stay, why not?" Wen Qiye shook the folding fan in his hand, "Only when you keep it can you sing." ”
After the secret guard was ordered to retreat, he turned his head to look at the guard beside him, "You go and tell Emperor Sheng, we will return to Xijun on April 6." ”
"You're going back the day after tomorrow? Doesn't Childe still have to accompany Princess Zhaoran? The guards were a little confused.
"But Xu Yin, I have to prepare things, if I don't go back to China, what will I give to the beauty?" Wen Qiye was a little frustrated, his little heart was still very fond of money.
Xu Yin nodded and felt reasonable, "Childe doesn't plan to go to Emperor Sheng by himself?" ”
"What are you wasting that time for? I'm going to accompany my future lady. Just go for it. Wen Qiye waved his hand, looking disgusted.
"......" Xu Yin was a little helpless, was he disliked by his son? Or was Emperor Sheng disliked by his son? I don't know, anyway, he hopes that the latter is disliked, so that he feels better.
"Hey, that's not right, Childe...... The subordinates remember that before the Second Highness left, he told you not to cause trouble, and you just asked the secret guard to go......" Xu Yin made a gesture of wiping his neck and sticking out his tongue, "If you are known by the Second Highness......"
"Shhh Wen Qiye glared at Xu Yin, and glanced at the look of hating iron but not steel, "If you do such a thing, you have to be discovered, so what do you want to do?" Have a casual meal? ”
The night is still long, and some are doomed to restlessness.
