A month and a half of time has passed, the begonias have fallen, the lotus flowers are budding, Liu Qiqi was still counting the number of newborn young lotuses on the pond at first, and after a few days, he could no longer count. Like a broken flower, when he experienced Kwai Shui for the second time, Qiqi also faded away from shyness and fear, and began to treat it with a normal heart. She even secretly rejoiced in her heart, because Ruan Niang said that it meant that she was growing up - Qiqi imagined that as she grew up, in the near future, the prince would marry her unexpectedly and logically.

The wind in the early summer morning, soft and slightly cool, the prince took Liu Qiqi in the study: Xiaolou listened to the spring rain overnight, and sold apricot blossoms in the Ming Dynasty in the deep alley.

King Yuyang said several times that the last sentence was not good, but Qiqi didn't think so, in her heart, the pale and calm after the prosperity fell, it was full of sadness.

After finishing the sentence, Qiqi rubbed his elbows. The prince hooked his lips and smiled, and was about to say something, when he saw Bai Su panting and walking in, hurriedly saluting, and then whispering a few words in the ear of King Yuyang.

The prince's face showed a look of horror, and after a while, he pretended to be calm and said, "Call Ruan Niang in, and then send someone to clean up the rooms of Qiqi and Eleven." ”

Qiqi put the pen away and looked at the prince and Bai Su for some reason.

"Yes." Bai Su glanced at Qiqi worriedly, turned around and walked out of the study.

"What's wrong, lord?" Qiqi was worried and surprised.

The prince's soft eyes fell on Qiqi's face, and he comforted: "Qiqi, don't worry, today's lunch, Ruan Niang will take you out to eat." ”

While speaking, Ruan Niang still walked in with Liu Shiyi, who looked suspicious, and also looked flustered: "Lord Wang, Steward Xue has already prepared the car, and the old slave will take Miss Seven out first." ”

"Lord Wang......" Liu Qiqi had a premonition that something bad was about to happen, and he was reluctant to leave King Yuyang.

King Yuyang knew that Qiqi would not leave easily, so he sighed helplessly, pulled Qiqi to Ruan Niang's side, and his eyes were like torches: "Qiqi, time is urgent, I can't explain it to you for the time being, I promise you, you can go back to the palace before dinner and see this king, okay?" ”

The eyes of the prince were like a pitch-black and deep abyss, Qiqi fell into it, and involuntarily responded: "Okay." ”

King Yuyang breathed a sigh of relief, put Qiqi's hand into Ruan Niang's hand, and advised, "Take care of Miss Seven and Young Master Eleven." ”

"Yes." Ruan Niang looked at the prince, nodded solemnly, and led her sister and brother out of the study, through the back garden, and walked out of the back door to a small sedan chair.

After the three of them sat down, Ruan Niang took two breaths, and hurriedly ordered the coachman to go to Guangjuxuan Restaurant.

The small sedan chair was bumpy, Liu Qiqi and Liu Eleven looked at each other, and Eleven opened his mouth first: "Ruan Niang, what happened?" Why did we all leave and leave the prince in the mansion. ”

Ruan Niang stroked Xiao Eleven's head helplessly and distressedly, sighed in embarrassment, and hesitated for a while before saying: "The prince was kindly entrusted, saying that he had a heart of disobedience, and His Majesty sent someone to search it!" ”

"Huh?" Qiqi was taken aback, isn't the prince more auspicious now, she would rather stay in the palace and share the joys and sorrows with the prince, rather than hide out and live secretly.

Ruan Niang noticed the look of horror on Qiqi's face, and hurriedly comforted: "Miss Qi doesn't need to worry, the prince said, this search is just Your Majesty's order to block Youyou's mouth, and one of the two Yulin Zhonglang generals in charge of the search is an old acquaintance of the prince, and His Majesty has also instructed them not to hurt the prince and other people in the palace." Otherwise, the prince would not have been able to get the news in advance and send the seventh young lady and the eleventh young master out. ”

Ruan Niang's deliberate indifferent attitude made the seven and eleventh generals suspicious, still worried about the prince, and didn't know that all this was set up by the king of Yuyang. Concubine Wan's faction intended to provoke the trust of the Eight Great Heirloom Kings of Great Liang and Emperor Liang. After thinking about it, King Yuyang secretly entered the palace and said that Emperor Liang's eight heirlooms were corrupt, and asked Emperor Liang to pretend to liquidate the Yuyang palace to warn the eight heirlooms. Emperor Liang was suffering from the fact that the eight heirloom kings were getting bigger and bigger, and he was suffering from the rules of the ancestors and could not be punished, so he wanted to use this Liang to make a show before he was crowned King Yuyang hundreds of years after the founding of the country, so he readily agreed to King Yuyang's proposal, where did he think that King Yuyang had other plans in his heart.

After a short time, the sedan chair stopped at Guangjuxuan. Guangjuxuan is one of the best restaurants in Yijing City, with many dishes and accommodating various cuisines of Daliang. Helplessly, the three of them had no appetite at this time, Ruan Niang ordered a few small dishes at random, ordered them to be served at noon, added a few taels of silver, and booked a private seat on the second floor.

Ruan Niang sat by the window, with an anxious and helpless look on her face, looking in the direction of Yuyang Palace.

Qiqi followed Ruan Niang's gaze and looked over, the heavy building was covered, and he couldn't see the Yuyang Palace, only to see a pair of men and horses wearing armor and halberds running by, and everyone on the street was startled to dodge. Qiqi saw that this team of people was going in the direction of the palace, and he was worried.

I don't know how long later, the shopkeeper came up with lunch, and the three of them were restless, and they just ate two bites randomly. coincidentally and silently looked at the direction of the palace outside the window, and even the lively little eleven had no smiling face at this time.

About an hour later, with a rush of footsteps, Bai Su walked into the compartment, first gave Ruan Niang a comforting look, and then said: "The car is ready, please Ruan Niang take the seventh lady and the eleventh young master back to the house." ”

"Okay." Ruan Niang breathed a long sigh of relief, stood up and straightened her clothes.

Seeing this, Seven Seventy-One also stood up and went downstairs with Ruan Niang Bai Su.

The group anxiously returned to the back gate of the palace, and after walking a few steps, they saw that the flowers and trees in the back garden were broken, which was undoubtedly trampled by people. The prince knew that they were back, so he greeted them, glanced at Qiqi worriedly, and sighed lightly: "Ruan Niang take the young master down to rest, after a day of running around today, you don't need to learn to memorize." ”

Qiqi was unwilling and wanted to ask something, but was blocked by the prince's serious eyes. She knew that even though the prince was in a difficult situation, she didn't want her and Xiao Eleven to know, so she was heartbroken and helpless, so she had to follow Ruan Niang back to her room.

As soon as Qiqi entered the room, he saw Chunyan sorting out the clothes in the cabinet.

Chunyan glanced at Qiqi and explained: "The prince was afraid that the officers and soldiers would implicate the young lady and the young master if they found out, so he specially ordered the slaves and maids to hide the personal belongings of the young lady and the young master, and disguised this empty room as a hospitality. ”

Qiqi had already thought of this, and asked, "Have you ever been scared, have you ever been hurt?" ”

Qiqi not only cares about Chunyan, but also wants to speculate on the situation of the prince.

Chunyan said: "Miss, don't worry, the prince has informed the slaves and maids in advance, and the search of the officers and soldiers is also a formality." ”

Qiqi nodded reassuringly.
