The mystery of Zheng Qizhi's life and death is now a secret that spreads far and wide, and in the chessboard laid out by Ji Gongyan, the few chess pieces in his hand are very clear about the whereabouts of this ruthless general. Judging from these people who are familiar with Ji Gongyan's behavior, he will definitely help Zheng Qi to ascend to the throne and make him the prince of Zheng State, so that Zheng Boyou will be elevated.

If it had been placed in the past, Uncle Zhao believed that Zheng Boyou would never become a threat to him, but now, everything is different. Today's Ji Gongyan will not only not kill Zheng Boyou, but may reuse him; Today's Bao Xi may be more inclined to Zheng Boyou than herself. Coupled with the fact that Zheng Boyou himself was gradually distancing himself from himself, Uncle Zhao was very worried about this matter, so he didn't want Bao Xi to meet Zheng Boyou alone in the palace, and he didn't want any of their conversations to be carried out behind his back.

Bao Xi picked up the cup and took a sip of tea, and looked at Uncle Zhao's complexion, which was not too good. She got up several times to persuade him to drink, and asked Uncle Zhao to drink with Zheng Boyou, Zheng Boyou's alcohol is somewhat estimated, and Ji Gongyu returned drunk several times, it seems that Zheng Boyou is quite quiet, and Uncle Zhao rarely drinks, and he will definitely not be able to sober up tonight.

During the banquet, the dancers shuttled, Zheng Boyou's expression flashed several times, but he didn't dare to stop and stay, for fear that his heart would be snooped on by others, except for a few necessary eye contacts, he tried his best to stop his eyes on the Xiren performing in the center of the hall.

was blocked by Bao Xi's words to talk about business, Uncle Zhao and Zheng Boyou could only talk about some inconsequential topics, and said all the relatives and friends at home, and then looked at the dance music on the stage silently, the sky was a little darker, Bao Xi got up and said goodbye, "Nian'er is still waiting for me in Qiongtai Palace, it's time for me to go back, uncle and Uncle Zheng please have fun, now there is nothing happy in this palace." ”

"You don't have anything to tell Uncle Zheng?" Uncle Zhao looked at Bao Xi and felt so strange, she called the person, but she didn't say anything at the moment, Bao Xi shook his head, "I just care about the situation of Twenty-seven, what else is there to do?" ”

Uncle Zhao frowned, and didn't know why Bao Xi didn't tell the truth, "I'm just concerned about Twenty-seven's situation, why don't you write a letter?" You have to call people to the front of you for questioning. ”

"The people of the Zheng family know that even if she is thousands of miles away, Twenty-seven is still my favorite person, if you want to embarrass her and bully her, I will definitely not allow it!" Bao Xi replied like this, without mentioning anything about the Qin State's dispatch of troops, Uncle Zhao had a red face and red ears, and his speech seemed incoherent and insignificant, which showed that he was already a little superior.

"I know, I once promised my mother that as long as I, Zheng Boyou, am here for a day, I will not be wronged for a day!" Zheng Boyou looked at Bao Xi and said, his heart sank little by little, he only had this role in Bao Xi's heart now, looking at her figure, he felt a little irritable more and more.

"Isn't Twenty-Seven really wronged?" Bao Xi looked at Zheng Boyou and asked, these words were like a pot of cold water poured down from the top of Zheng Boyou's head, he suddenly woke up from the dizzy drunkenness, looked at Bao Xi with a blank look, his eyes were confrontational, he didn't take his eyes off again, she should have known the fate of Twenty-seven when she married Twenty-seven into the Zheng family that day, all he could guarantee was that she would not be punished, would not be injured, would not starve and be cold, and other grievances exceeded his protection.

"Farewell." Seeing that Zheng Boyou didn't answer, Bao Xi said again, and then turned around and walked towards the outside of Dazai's Palace, Xiuxiu followed closely, turned her head back several times to look at everything that happened on the table, and walked out for a long time before she spoke, "Uncle Zheng has been looking at Niangniang for a long time. ”

"Really?" Bao Xi replied.

"Uncle Zheng seems to be a little different from Niangniang." Xiuxiu continued, with some speculation.

"Really?" Bao Xi replied.

"I used to just hear Mrs. Zheng talk about it, but now I see it with my own eyes, but it's really different. Uncle Zheng looked at Niangniang's eyes, and it seemed that he was more affectionate than when he looked at his wife, so it was no wonder that Zhao Shangqing didn't dare to ask you to meet alone in the harem. Xiuxiu analyzed, feeling a little uneasy in her heart, if Zheng Boyou understood the truth about Bao Xi, then Bao Xi was sandwiched between Zheng Boyou and the king...... She didn't dare to think about it anymore.

"Really?" Bao Xi replied.

"On that day, the king suddenly gave the twenty-seven to Uncle Zheng, but because of this matter?" Xiuxiu asked.

Bao Xi turned to look at Xiuxiu and was silent, Xiuxiu knew that she was talking too much, and immediately lowered her head and said, "It's Xiuxiu who talks a lot!" ”

"After so many years in the palace, you should also know that the partition wall has ears!" Bao Xi said.

"Yes, Xiuxiu remembers the teachings of her mother." Xiuxiu responded, very regretful to say these words to Bao Xi, judging from Bao Xi's appearance, she is no stranger to Zheng Boyou's feelings, not to mention that she has long heard that Bao Xi has been going to Qiongtai Hall to accompany her when she was left out, if there is really nothing happening between the two people, it is a little suspicious, Xiuxiu looked at Bao Xi's figure, and wondered whether the two had ever ...... She cut off her thoughts, not daring to let this dangerous imagination spread any longer, took a deep breath, and ran a few steps forward to catch up with Bao Xi's pace.

It was not early, Nian'er had already fallen into a deep sleep, Bao Xi looked at Nian'er, patted his swaddling clothes, sat beside him for a long time, and then got up and let Xiuxiu release the water, she went back to the dormitory after bathing, and told Xiuxiu to sleep herself, and no one should disturb her.

Xiuxiu responded and instructed a few people who were on duty at night, her room was not far from the dormitory, and she didn't dare to sleep too deeply, so she had to prick up her ears to pay attention to the movements in the room, for fear that someone would break into it at night. Bao Xi said that she was asleep, but in fact, she didn't plan to rest at all, she changed her clothes, changed from plain white to black, changed her skirt into pants, and calculated that it was time for Uncle Zhao to take Zheng Boyou to finish eating and go home.

If Bao Xi didn't tell Zheng Boyou anything this time, it wouldn't hurt to just ask him to go back. After all, no one would believe that she had come all the way to call Zheng Boyou, ask two sentences of twenty-seven, and then send people back as they were. But as far as Bao Xi is concerned, she feels that this is not appropriate, so next time she calls, Zheng Boyou will come or not? Do you bring soldiers and horses with you when you come? Do you bring twenty-seven or not?

These words are like a fish in her throat, she must say it, she took advantage of the deep secret passage left by Ji Gongyan, left the palace directly, avoided the occasional crowd of people on the street, and walked towards Zheng Bo's mansion, looking left and right along the way, in case someone followed and exposed.

Zheng's mansion was dark, only the lantern hanging on the door was still flickering with faint light, Bao Xi walked to the back door, gently patted the copper ring on the door, no one answered, she was a little anxious, and patted it harder. She was worried that Zheng Boyou's house did not know about anyone, and if no one answered the door this time, she was afraid that she would run in vain.

Fortunately, there was a sound of footsteps inside this time, and without even asking who it was, the door was slowly opened, and the person who opened the door was Zheng Boyou, who looked at Bao Xi stunned there, and almost couldn't believe his eyes. After a long time, he suddenly opened the door wider, and asked Bao Xi to come in, looking at Bao Xi who entered sideways, he asked a little puzzled, "Niang Niang visited in the middle of the night, what happened?" ”

Bao Xi turned to look at Zheng Boyou, he was actually wearing an inner shirt, he should have fallen asleep and turned over when he heard the knock on the door. It's just that I didn't expect that it would be a woman who visited in the middle of the night, and I didn't think about dressing up neatly, but at this moment, Zheng Boyou felt a little embarrassed, "I ......" He didn't know how to explain, "I'll go and change my clothes first!" ”

"No need," Bao Xi grabbed Zheng Boyou, "I can't stay too long, in case something happens in Qiongtai Hall overnight, Xiuxiu can't handle it alone." ”

"Niangniang, please tell me directly." Zheng Boyou bowed down and asked.

"My relationship with my uncle, now you have seen it, he is on guard against me everywhere, and it is inconvenient for me to speak in the main hall." Bao Xi said and sighed, as Zheng Boyou walked forward, the visit in the middle of the night obviously did not want to be known, Zheng Boyou could only bite the bullet and bring Bao Xi into his bedroom, Bao Xi sat by the window, and then the moonlight could still see some things clearly, Zheng Boyou sat at the head of the bed, as close to the direction of Bao Xi as possible, and asked, "Why are you and Lord Zhao here?" ”

"Aren't you and your uncle close friends in the past?" Bao Xi asked.

"It's just that I'm narrow-minded, and I can't mind Zhao Shangqing's use of me, I think Niangniang probably won't stick to these little things." Zheng Boyou said.

"Uncle Zheng doesn't have to be polite, if you are narrow-minded, there are not many people who are afraid of being broad-minded." Bao Xi said.

"Niangniang came here this time, probably not to praise me!" Zheng Boyou had a smile on his face, but it was difficult to detect it in the dark, his voice was still tight, and his throat was a little dry, after all, he had drunk wine and felt thirsty at the moment. He got up and wanted to get the teacup on the table, but he was embarrassed, this intention was understood by Bao Xi, she took the cup on the table and handed it to Zheng Boyou, Zheng Boyou took the teacup with a red face, and whispered, "Xie Niangniang." ”

"I can't tell what my uncle and I are trying to do evil, but I always feel that something is wrong with him." Bao Xi said that Uncle Zhao is too powerful and too powerful, and he hopes that everything is under his control and no accidents are allowed. On that day, Nian'er grabbed lots, and Bao Xi had already spied out, and the subsequent incident of Bao Xi seducing Bao Hongde showed his power. And these, Bao Xi didn't know how to talk to Zheng Boyou at all,

"Niangniang may just think too much," Zheng Boyou said with relief, "If the situation is too grim today, it is natural for Lord Zhao to be careful and look ahead." As for the domination of the harem and the * of the mother, it is also an extraordinary period, and the mother does not have to take this matter too seriously. ”

"I didn't come to listen to you!" Bao Xi thought it was a little funny.

"Oh......" Zheng Boyou suddenly remembered that Bao Xi was a special visit, not a walk he took, met by chance on the way, and complained to each other! I've drunk some wine, and now I'm not very sober, and I hope my mother will forgive me. ”
