It was only at noon that someone unlocked the door and withdrew. A little girl came in from outside, carrying a food box in her hand and walking inside.

Haitang recognized her, Yixiu had always mentioned this girl in front of her before, saying that she was careful and serious, and she would see if she could be promoted to be a big girl in front of Haitang in the future. When Yixiu serves the begonias, she can still let this little girl wait.

The little girl took out the contents of the food box and put them on the table, the food was ready, and finally took out the chopsticks and put them away in a proper manner. When she was about to retreat, Begonia grabbed her. The little girl was so frightened that she almost screamed, and Begonia tightened the strength in her hand and shook her head.

Knock knock.

Someone knocked on the door, and Begonia looked forward and saw the person standing at the door, staring coldly at them. Haitang let go of the little girl, and greeted the person's ancestors in her heart.

"At supper, the slave and maid will come and collect these dishes."

After saying this in a hurry, the little girl ran out with her head down. The door was slammed shut again, and then locked.

Begonia has no heart to eat, looking at these meals is just upset. She picked up the bowl of rice in front of her and slammed it against the door. Not enough to vent, she pulled down the tablecloth again, only to be put on the table with the food crackling and falling to the ground, and the soup was spilled everywhere.

"Is the food out of your appetite or is the young lady going on a hunger strike? Or maybe the eldest lady wants to play a suicide play on the debris on the ground? The man outside chuckled with mockery, "The eldest lady can use the dagger you hid in your sleeve earlier to finish yourself off, and you don't have to use these blunt weapons, not simply." In addition, the subordinates persuaded the eldest lady to say a word, Xiang Ye is bound to win this time, if the eldest lady is obedient, then after the matter is completed, she must be a noble princess, Xiang Ye only has a blood under the knee of the eldest lady, and the eldest lady asks for a favor again, and the life of the little prince should be able to stay. But if the eldest lady can't think about it, then there is no need for Xiangye to keep the life of the little prince. ”

"You dare!" Begonia rushed to the door of the room and kicked it twice, and heard the man outside laugh arrogantly a few times.

"It's not up to us to dare or not, it's Xiangye who has the final say. The eldest lady has the strength to toss, so she might as well think about how to help Xiangye achieve a great cause. ”

"Be your uncle!" Haitang carried some internal force, kicked hard according to the locked position of the door, and listened to the sound of the copper lock falling to the ground outside, she was happy. As soon as she opened the door, a cold light pierced her forehead, and she dodged the sword, and the man's sharp moves rushed straight over, not giving Begonia a respite at all.

Yu Guang saw the mess on the ground that was smashed to the ground, Begonia's eyes flashed, and he deliberately led the man to the soup and vegetable oil, and sure enough, the man's feet were slipped by an inch, and his moves were offset. She took this opportunity to run out of the house, and it was only two steps before the two of them became entangled.

Haitang recognized these two people, who were the people who had just broken into the house together, and they were Huo Starling's cronies!

"Miss, don't make it difficult for your subordinates."

Begonia ignored it and still wanted to go out. The two of them were holding swords, one was at her neck, and the other was at her heart, and they were really unsympathetic! Begonia narrowly avoided the sword in front of her, but she couldn't hide from the sword in her mouth. Fortunately, the man stopped in time, but Ling Yan's sword qi still cut through her clothes and overflowed with blood beads.

The two of them put away their swords, and stood in front of Haitang together with the one they had fought before, "The eldest lady should go in by herself, don't let her subordinates do it again." ”

Begonia looked down at the blood beads that overflowed on her placket, let go of her lower lip, which had already been bitten to the pale lower lip, and turned around and entered the house.

A servant came in and cleaned up the mess with great skill, and when he left, the door was closed tightly and a new lock was dropped.

The wound was not deep, it only scratched the surface, she was not a squeamish person, she didn't need to be dressed, she just changed her clothes. When he walked out of the inner room, Begonia was not as restless as before, but calm and a little weird.

She sat down at the table, poured herself a cup of tea, and did not drink it, but dipped some tea with her fingers, and drew her little courtyard on the tabletop without a tablecloth. From the front door, to the back window, to the direction she knew the whole yard to escape......

When she first came back, she was startled by Huo Starling waiting in the house, but she didn't realize that he still had a few masters. Now that she calmed down and lifted her spirit, she could gradually distinguish the position and breath of the three people outside the house at this moment.

The table top had been turned into a water mirror by the tea, she used her palm to pour all the water on the ground, wiped the table dry with her sleeve, and finally poured another cup of tea and drank it in one gulp. The moment she put down the teacup, the corners of her lips pursed upward.

She already knew how to leave.

At dinner, the door was opened again, and the person who was fighting with her stood by the door, watching the little girl come in with a food box, and staring at the little girl bringing out the food and putting it away.

"The slave will come back tomorrow morning to clean up."

The little girl didn't dare to look at Haitang, and hurriedly left with the food box. Begonia glanced at the table, and it was all the meals she used to like to eat.

She had been there for a while, and the food was all cold, before she picked up her chopsticks and forced herself to eat two bites.

I thought that the little girl should bring breakfast the next morning, but the door was not opened until noon. The little girl took back last night's meal and brought her a freshly cooked meal. This time, Begonia didn't wait for the little girl to put the chopsticks on the table in a proper manner, but directly snatched the chopsticks from the little girl's hand. During the action, she had already stuffed the note prepared in advance into the little girl's sleeve pocket.

The little girl stiffened for a moment, raised her eyes to look at Begonia, and saw that she looked indifferent, as if nothing had happened at all.

"Slave maid...... Come back in the afternoon to clean up. ”

Just like yesterday, the little girl hurriedly dropped these words, picked up the food box containing yesterday's food and left. The door was closed again, but Begonia heard the man outside shouting to the little girl, and she was rummaging through the food box.

She pursed her lips and smiled, not at all surprised.

The little girl was half frightened to death, and she didn't dare to gasp, and when she saw that the food box had been checked, she had to pick it up and leave. She had barely taken two steps when she heard the man calling out to her. "Stop."

The little girl turned around and looked at him timidly, "Slave, slave still has something to do." ”

The man came over with a cold face, and the little girl was so frightened that she retreated again and again. "What are you going to do?"

Seeing that the man raised the sword in his hand, the little girl was so frightened that she screamed. The begonia in the house quickly came to the door, and her heart rose to her throat.

The sword was not unsheathed, but only tapped the little girl's two hands with the scabbard. "Stick out."

The little girl's face was pale, and the food box almost fell to the ground.

"Put the thing down, put your hand out."

The little girl swallowed, obediently put down the food box, and spread out her two trembling hands in front of him. The man looked back and forth with the scabbard, stared at the little girl twice, and then waved his hand to let her go.

The begonias in the room secretly breathed a sigh of relief, returned to the table and raised their chopsticks to eat lunch.

The little girl was busy with her own business, and she had to read the note when it was convenient. Seeing the meaning clearly, the little girl was a little embarrassed for a while, and after thinking about it, the little girl simply tore up the note and threw it into the pile of filth.

In the afternoon, the little girl came to deliver food again, Haitang didn't say anything, the little girl didn't look up, and the two didn't even look at each other. One took something and left, and the other raised his chopsticks to eat by himself, not suspicious at all.

Just two days later, when Huo and the others had already accepted their fate, a major event happened in the capital.

I heard that it was the descendants of Jin Zisong's family who saw Xiahou Guan Jing come to the house again, and had an intimate conversation with Huo Hanyan for a whole hour, and they were both satisfied when they left. I thought it was just a sister's heart-to-heart conversation, but I didn't expect that the next day, someone saw Huo Hanyan come to the door and ask to see Xiahou Xunmu......

Later, some people said that there seemed to be signs of soldiers and horses stationed a few miles outside the capital, and they did not look like they were from Dongyuan, but looked like they came from a country. At the same time, I don't know who spread that there is a private stronghold of Xiahou Xunmu, the prince of a country, in the capital......

For a while, the people in the capital were panicked, and everyone felt that the sky was about to change.

Public opinion in the capital can be suppressed for a while, but there is no wind and no waves, everyone does not say it on the surface, but it has already been discussed in private. When the matter reached the court, it caused a big wave, and instantly woke up those neutral and pedantic old ministers, and they all wanted to enter the palace to meet the emperor. Although the emperor's unconscious was just a pretense, the actual situation was not much better, if he wasn't still useful, Qian Guifei and the five princes were afraid that they would want to kill him at this moment.

"Your Highness......" Xiao Tong hurriedly ran over, and was about to tell Yin Shen about the outside matter, but he didn't expect that he had already learned the news in advance, and it was not surprising at all.

"She's fast."

The child was stunned for a while, "Who?" ”

Yin Shen's eyes were heavy, "Wait two more days and see what Xiahou Xunmu will do?" Let's see what else she has to offer. ”

Xiao Tong was a little puzzled, "She? Who is the Second Highness talking about? ”

Yin Shen laughed meaningfully. "Begonia, the princess of your family."

Meanwhile......

The court and the people became more and more dissatisfied with Xiahou Xunmu, and even the envoys of the countries who had not yet left secretly exerted pressure. It was a foolproof plan, but several were blocked by this incident. Xiahou Xunmu didn't care, but the fifth prince was forced to meet Xiahou Xunmu overnight, and finally asked Xiahou Xunmu to enter the palace to make a plea.

When Xiahou Xunmu stood at the gate of the palace and was about to enter the palace, the old ministers who had been refused to enter the palace and spontaneously waited at the gate of the palace finally couldn't sit still.
