"Niangniang is not a person with a careful eye."

If it were someone else, it would be fine, but these words came from the mouth of Compassion, and Qingtan knew in her heart that what she minded would not be the identity of the daughter of the second princess, an old enemy.

Just, what could it be?

She waved her hand, sent her back left and right, thought about it, and said tentatively: "Could it be that you are watching Pan Guifei end up now, and you can't bear it anymore?" ”

Min Dai looked at her for a moment, shook her head and smiled.

"I can't talk about it." She said: "If you really want to say it, it's probably the death of the rabbit and the fox." ”

Qingtan's heart moved.

"I don't think I'm as smart as the Pan family, although I don't have the same ambition as hers, but the current situation of the Xiang family ......" Min Dai sighed, "The second princess is the most powerful reminder to keep me by my side." Qingtan, I won't tell you, this palace is really uneasy! ”

Qingtan understood.

If it were in the past, she probably didn't have anything to say to persuade Dai, so she could only sigh with her, but now, ......

"The mother is too careful." She smiled faintly, "Uncle......"

She seemed to have a lot to say, but when she finally looked at the people around her, she still smiled.

"I heard that his spirit has been worse recently, and every day when he goes to court, he will summon those people from the three sects and nine streams to come to him, and become a family with the elixir and magic, eager for immortality. Go on like this......" Qing Tan said this, changed the conversation, shook Min Dai's hand, and said with relief: "Don't worry, although the Xiang family is now on top of the Pan family's shortage, the emperor is no longer the emperor of the past." There are many things, he has a heart, and he is afraid and powerless. ”

After she said this, Min Dai on the side looked at her in a daze for a long time.

It wasn't until Qing Tan calmly cast a questioning look that Min Dai came back to her senses, put her mind together, and said worriedly: "Qing Tan, you girl...... What's going on today? ”

How do you speak...... Inexplicably, there are a lot of edges and corners that can't be touched?

It's as if she knows something, but she can't say it.

Thinking of this, Min Dai was not at ease, and just wanted to ask, but Qing Tan opened her mouth first.

"The matter of the second princess, I am very happy for the mother!" She said: "This girl is also a blessed person, although she was not reincarnated well, but in the imperial palace of this short and good person, she can still have a mother like you, which is also her creation." ”

At dusk, out of the Xiancui Palace, the faint smile on Pei Qingtan's face was all powerless. She dismissed the sedan chair, accompanied by Su Xue, and slowly walked towards the Yecheng Palace.

"Princess," after going through the technique, Su Xue pondered for a long time, and said worriedly: "Since the dim sum from Chenghui Palace was delivered, you have been so depressed for the past two days. The slave and maid look worried! ”

Speaking of the dim sum three days ago, I have to mention the person who delivered the dim sum.

"Cui Xuan......" she asked, "The girl's funeral has been arranged?" ”

Su Xue bowed, "The emperor, together with the matter of the second princess, sent an edict back, gave a thick burial, and also sealed the title of county monarch, which can be regarded as giving enough face." ”

"This girl, who has been with Pan Guifei for many years, is a little smart," she said, smiling lightly, "She also knows how to cultivate the plank road in the open and Chen Cang in the dark." ”

Three days ago, for the dedication of Xie Gegong for the funeral of the concubine, Cui Xuan ordered people to make a few exquisite snacks and assign palace people, from Yuxiu Palace to Yecheng Palace, and sent them one by one.

At that time, this dim sum entered the Yecheng Palace, and Su Xueyuan didn't want to send it to Qingtan, but the little palace maid who couldn't stand the dim sum said a special sentence, saying that the style of this dim sum was newly researched by Cuixuan girl, called Dongtian Cake, please Princess Yecheng must appreciate her face, and it is good to taste it.

Her words make people suspicious, Pan Guifei passed away, where does Cui Xuan still have this mind, what new dim sum to study? What's more, the cave cake ...... The name is too obvious.

Sure enough, she sent the food box to Qingtan's eyes, and replied to the palace maid's words, Pei Qingtan opened the food box, and tore open the only sesame baked cake inside, even if she got a note.

The content is also simple, only telling her that the death of Empress Renyi was the result of the Son of Heaven's order for Princess Qi to set up a formation for her, intending to use the prince's life to gain her luck today.

When Qing Tan just saw these words in her eyes, she only thought that Cui Xuan was talking crazy and provoking indiscriminately, but when she hid behind the palace gate with Su Xue last night and saw Li Bai come forward to take Cui Xuan away, her thoughts changed.

Thinking of this, she let out a long sigh, took Su Xue's hand and said, "Auntie, to tell you the truth, if Li Bai doesn't do this, I really don't dare to believe this sentence from Cui Xuan." ”

Thinking of the tragic death of the first queen, there is such an unseemly grievance behind it, the emperor is like this, and even Princess Qi is very likely to be an accomplice...... Thinking of these, Su Xue frowned and was sad, and her heart was painful.

"What are you going to do now?" she asked. ”

How to do it......

All night last night, Pei Qingtan tossed and turned on the embroidery couch, thinking of these three words in his mind.

She said: "In a few days, it will be my aunt's taboo." ”

Su Xue was stunned for a moment, then immediately understood something, and replied: "Yes, September 15, it will be ten days." ”

"Let's go." Qing Tan's mind was already settled, and his feet were faster, "Go back and write an excerpt to your uncle." ”

The next day, when Xiao Chai had lunch, Pei Qingtan's fold was delivered.

He handed the excerpt to Sun Zhifang, who read it roughly and replied: "Your Majesty, Princess Yecheng asked for a decree, saying that it was about to go to the queen's mother's birthday, and the princess has been missing her mother recently, so I would like to ask for your permission, and allow her to go back to the Huaiguo Mansion on the day of her mother's death, in order to remember." ”

Xiao listened to it, and his chewing movements slowed down slightly, and he was silent for a moment.

Sun Zhifang reminded at the right time: "Your Majesty, what do you mean ......?" ”

Xiao came back to his senses and glanced at him.

"Just go." He reactivated his chopsticks and said casually: "Remember to let Li Bai send a few more people to secretly guard, the princess is a precious body, and nothing must happen." ”

Sun Zhifang bowed, "Yes, the old slave understands." ”

After Pei Qingtan got Xiao Zhu's permission, he began to order people to prepare for the sacrifice. In a blink of an eye, on September 15, she said goodbye to the Queen Mother and Concubine Xian early in the morning, and then left the palace and went straight to the Huaiguo Mansion.

Although since the death of Pei's father and son and Pei Yao's entry into the palace with Qingtan, the title of Duke of Huaiguo has been passed to the end, and there is no more serious master in the house, but Pei Yaowei has always kept this mansion, and put some trustworthy slaves to watch the garden on weekdays, only to keep a maiden home for himself.

Even after her death, Xiao Chai didn't break this thought. It is very convenient for Qingtan to come back now.

The chief keeper of the garden led the people in the house to stand in front of the door early in the morning, waiting for the princess. As soon as Qing Tan arrived, he said a few words, and the chief manager said that knowing that the princess was back, he had ordered someone to clean up her past residence again in the past two days, but he didn't want Su Xue to interrupt his next words.

"As for the residence, the princess means that she won't live in the original Shuyi Pavilion."

The manager was stunned for a moment, and asked tightly: "Yes, I don't know what the princess means......?" ”

"Let's go to my aunt." Qingtan said, "I remember when I was a child, whenever I lost my temper and couldn't sleep, I always loved to go to my aunt. She always coaxed me and accompanied me......"

At the mention of this, a sour feeling swelled in her heart, and she hurriedly sorted out her emotions, "Tonight, I'll accompany my aunt." ”

The chief manager received the order, turned around and led the people to arrange.

During the day, Qing Tan recited the scriptures for Pei Yao in the Buddhist room for a day, and after the sacrifice at night, she returned to Pei Yao's old residence.

"In the past, the girl loved to play, and every time she was grounded by Shungong, she had to rack her brains to think of countermeasures, and finally with the help of the second son, she came up with such a thing, which is the most suitable for hiding from the world!"

At night, under the back wall of the garden, Qingtan, who was dressed as a maidservant, successfully set her sights on the 'dog hole' through the guidance of Xue Xue.

“…… Dog holes, huh? She swallowed two mouthfuls of saliva before she asked this sentence in disbelief, "Auntie won't stop!" ”

Thinking of the old things, Su Xue snorted and said, "You really haven't seen Shungong's temper, and you don't know how much headache your aunt had before she got married." ”

Speaking of which, if she was the only one in the house, it would not be like this. For Shun Gong, the difficulty lies in the family of fathers and sisters, except for himself, one of whom talks about rules and etiquette, and the rest from his father to his younger siblings are all more than one can toss the master, and it is rare to make people feel light.

Su Xue said, afraid that Qing Tan would respond, and deliberately explained: "But you can rest assured, this hole is blocked on weekdays, and it is covered with weeds, although it looks like a dog hole, but in fact, it has never been used by people." ”

"The girl can't wait to come over to check three times a day, for fear that Shun Gong will find out and block her back road."

The more he said, the more the memories of the old days seemed to be touched more deeply, Su Xue gathered her spirit and urged: "Don't say it, time is pressing, you can go quickly." ”

"The girl's residence, the bamboo forest is next to it, under the forest, the secret road leading to the outside of the house, you know, there is this bamboo forest as a cover, Li Bai and those people, they will never find this road."

She said, but the worry in her eyes was heavy for a while, "It's just a princess, you go out alone this time, you must be careful, be careful." ”

If it weren't for the fear that the two of them would leave together, and then arouse the emperor's suspicion and anger at the other palace people in the palace, Su Xue would never agree to let her escape alone and go north to the Zhao clan.

Qing Tan knew that she was worried, so she stepped forward and hugged her, and said with relief: "Aunt Suxue, don't worry, I'll be fine." ”

Su Xue tried her best to hold back her tears, nodded, and instructed uneasily: "Also, princess, the person you are going to find him to help...... Although the queen also believed in him in the past, is he really reliable? ”

"It's been all these years, and people's hearts are changeable! The slave and maid were still not very relieved. ”
