"I took you in this Hou Mansion for so many years, not to let you return to him as soon as you see Luo Jingsheng, I don't have that much energy, I don't know what it means to fulfill others." He clenched his fists and said in frustration with his head down.

Song Qingge took a sip of tea and gently wiped the corners of his lips with a silk handkerchief, "You're so busy these days, it's better to go back early to rest." ”

He had not been sitting there for long, but she felt a cold smell in the air.

Duan Wangchen raised his eyes and looked at her, "Are you driving me away?" ”

"I'm going to rest, too."

She let go of her teacup and stood up. Fu Rou stepped forward and took off her coat for her.

Duan Wangchen stared at her back until the curtain was lowered, and he was still sitting on the brocade stool. In Jiang Wanyin's place, he was isolated from the curtain, but he didn't expect that when he came to Song Qingge, he was also isolated from the curtain, and he suddenly felt a little ridiculous.

A self-deprecating smile curled into his lips as he left her room.

The night was slightly cool, which made him feel a chill on his body.

"Master Hou." The clerk took the robe in his hand and stepped forward to put it on him. He stood on the corridor, staring at the Zhuyun Garden shrouded in night, and a chill welled up in his heart.

"It's good to wait for the second lady to be angry." The waiter opened his mouth to comfort him, but he did not respond, and walked towards the garden.

Five days later.

Emperor Xuanyuan's strategist selection competition for Xuanyuan Jing began, Duan Wangchen passed all the way, compared to the competitors, and at this moment he had the highest call for the first place.

Xuanyuan Jing smiled on the surface and gave him face, but in his heart he didn't want him to come to him as his advisor.

Luo Jingsheng is the most satisfactory candidate in his heart. Duan Wangchen is too ambitious, and it can be seen from the fact that he pulled Jiang Hechi off the stage that he doesn't like people who are too ambitious.

Duan Wangchen also knew that he would not easily believe in himself, and only maintained the compliments that he should have on the surface, and he did not pay attention to the rest.

It's just that before the strategist selection competition was completed, there were some unfavorable remarks in Chang'an City.

It was probably because he sneaked into the Hou Mansion and instructed Duan Wangchen's second lady to slip the fetus in the eldest lady's womb. In less than three days, there was already a commotion in Chang'an City.

Immediately afterwards, I don't know what happened, along with the fact that he had an affair with Jiang Wanyin, and the incident that he insulted her in the Prime Minister's Mansion back then.

Now, the story is coherent.

Song Qingge sat in Zhuyun Garden, listening to the things that Fu Rou had spread outside about Xuanyuan Jing and Jiang Wanyin, and the more she heard it, the more uneasy she became.

This person must be someone who knows Xuanyuan Jing and Jiang Wanyin very well, otherwise how could there be so many detailed things.

It's just that there is a personal affair between Jiang Wanyin and Xuanyuan Jing, which she didn't expect.

"This person has such a thing at this juncture, it is obviously aimed at Xuanyuan Jing, the emperor is going to make him the crown prince, Jiang Wanyin is just one of his funeral objects." Song Qingge stared at the tea leaves floating on the water in the teacup, his eyes were deep.

"But there is no other prince in the palace who has the ability to compete with the four princes?" Furou didn't quite understand that the other princes were either too young or incompetent. Harming Xuanyuan Jing in this way will not benefit them at all.

"People's hearts are separated from their bellies, not to mention the royal dispute, this is not something you and I can judge." Song Qingge blinked, not wanting to discuss this matter further.

As soon as this incident came out, Xuanyuan Jing's reputation plummeted, and the matter of the strategist and the establishment of the prince was put on hold for the time being. It's just that Emperor Xuanyuan and the ministers of the court have noticed a person, this person has emerged among many capable people, literati and scholars, and ministers of the court, and has become the best candidate for a strategist, that is, Duan Wangchen.

Emperor Xuanyuan was a little panicked in his heart, when did this person he had never taken to heart before become so good at strategy?

He was so panicked that he couldn't sleep for several nights, so he called Jiang Hechi and a few old ministers to the imperial study to talk for night after night, and told them about the panic in his heart.

Several old ministers comforted and comforted him, saying that Duan Wangchen was only famous, but the threat to his throne and the four princes was not great.

Jiang Hechi not only comforted him, but also took the opportunity to participate in Duan Wangchen's book, he couldn't wait until this day. Now that he has this opportunity, he will naturally not let it go.

It's just that they were all suppressed by Emperor Xuanyuan for the time being, and he was flustered in his heart, and he didn't dare to deal with Duan Wuchen easily. Xuanyuan Jing's matter is on the cusp, the condemned person is him, the injured person is Duan Wangchen, and the public opinion of the common people is naturally on his side.

If Duan Wangchen was dealt with at this juncture, how should the people of Yan Kingdom think of him, so he scolded Jiang He.

Jiang He was scolded for a long time, and he didn't dare to mention it again.

As soon as Jiang Wanyin knew about these things, she immediately went to find Duan Wangchen, but he had been going out early and returning late recently, not because he was deliberately avoiding her, she went for several days and didn't find him.

She didn't dare to go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and now she was even afraid of leaving the door of the Hou Mansion, let alone going back to the Prime Minister's Mansion. Jiang Hechi sent someone to send her a letter, which said that he and the Du family were fine, and promised her that he would definitely participate in Duan Wangchen in front of Emperor Xuanyuan, but now that several days have passed, Duan Wuchen has nothing to do, and even this reputation is like the sky.

She knew that Jiang Hechi's plan had failed. She wrote and replied to Jiang Hechi and Du Shi with a letter, and asked Ruxiang to hand it out.

Three days after the incident, Luo Jingsheng appeared in Xuanyuan Jing's Changle Mansion.

He was drinking, but there was no singing or dancing in the garden, and he was the only one pouring wine.

His face looked very depressed, and he must have lived like this for the past three days.

"Why are the four princes so decadent, you haven't completely lost yet." Luo Jingsheng was wearing a crescent-colored robe, standing in front of him, the hairband on his head fluttering in the wind, and there was a burst of light between his eyebrows and eyes.

"Do you know who did it?" Seeing him so arrogant, Xuanyuan Jing put down the wine glass in his hand and leaned back against the back of the chair.

"Whoever has the most reputation now is the one who does it." He lowered his eyes and looked at him, his voice hard.

Xuanyuan Jing frowned, "Duan Wuchen? How dare he?! ”

The corners of Luo Jingsheng's lips hooked up a smile, with a hint of indescribable meaning in the smile, "You have offended his eldest lady, what else does he dare not do?" This time, he just wants you to not be able to turn over. In this way, he has a chance to usurp the throne. ”

"What did you say?" Xuanyuan Jing's eyes widened, his face was full of surprise, and he even woke up half of his wine.

"If you expose him at this time, there is still a chance to turn over." With that, he put the evidence he had gathered over the course of time before him.

This is what he asked Yu Feng to collect, Duan Wangchen and Bian Luo have corresponded in the past few years, and the evidence that Duan Wangchen wants to seek power and usurp the throne is confirmed.

Xuanyuan Jing tried to stay awake, flipping through the letters on them one by one.

"Tomorrow, tomorrow I will go into the palace and hand this evidence to my father!" He held the letter in his hand and said through gritted teeth.

"But I have two conditions."

Finally, Luo Jingsheng said the purpose of his visit.

"Childe, please speak." Xuanyuan Jing raised his head and looked at him.

"One, help me rescue the second lady in the Hou Mansion. 2. Redress the grievances of Xiao Wangfu and Song Wangfu for me. ”

He furrowed his eyebrows, thoughts rolling in his eyes.

At this time, Xuanyuan Jing couldn't figure it out, he looked at him suspiciously, "Who are you?" ...”

"I am Xiao Yunqi, the little prince of Xiao Wangfu." He was outspoken, and he had nothing to hide in front of Xuanyuan Jing about his identity.

"But Song Qingge, you personally came to ask this king to let this king marry her to Duan Wuchen." He was puzzled, he knew a little about the relationship between him and Song Qingge.

"At the beginning, I was blinded by hatred, and I was also bewitched by Duan Wangchen, so I misunderstood Ah Ge for so many years, and I was sorry for her. When I investigated the relationship between Duan Wangchen and Bian Luo before, I was threatened by Bian Luo. At this moment, Ah Ge is in their hands, if I don't rescue her, she will die. Luo Jingsheng's eyes were full of anxiety, afraid that Song Qingge would have an accident no matter how late it was.

"Then when I present the letter to my father tomorrow, I will take care of this matter for you." Xuanyuan Jing probably knew the anxiety in his heart, just as he was worried about Jiang Wanyin.

When Bian Luo rushed to the Hou Mansion, Duan Wangchen was in the study, planning what to do next. Bian Luo's appearance made him a little surprised, "At this juncture, you shouldn't be here." He yelled at him.

"Luo Jingsheng has stolen the letters that you and I have exchanged in the past few years, and I am afraid that they have been handed over to Xuanyuan Jing at this time."

Bian Luo gasped, his face solemn.

"What's going on?"

Duan Wangchen immediately put down the pen in his hand and walked in front of him.

"I have been in the capital all these days, and the palace in Zhenbei is guarded by secret guards. The secret guard sent to keep an eye on Changle Mansion has also been staring at Luo Jingsheng's whereabouts, I originally thought that he had been planning in Changle Mansion these days how to compete with you for the position of strategist, but who knew that he was actually a plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, and personally went to the Zhenbei Wangfu Mansion to steal the letters we exchanged. ”

Bian Luo lowered his head, not daring to look at him.

"Then you say, what do we do now? What do we do now?! Duan Wangchen was so angry that he grabbed him by the collar at once.

Bian Luoyu frowned solemnly, clenching the sword in his hand, "So far, you can only go back to the north of the town with me to avoid the limelight, and I still have 300,000 troops guarding the town." The king of Zhenbei is friendly with me, and he is willing to support you, and the 200,000 troops in his hands will surely be of our use. ”

This is the most complete plan he came up with on the way to the Hou Mansion.

"Grandmother is in the house, Ah Ge is in the house, and Yin'er, can you withdraw this big family if you say it? Besides, if we go to the north of the town, can you guarantee that we will be able to return to Chang'an City? Are you sure you won't be shot into a meatloaf by the elite in Emperor Xuanyuan's hands? ”

Duan Wuchen felt that he was really whimsical, even if he withdrew, it would not be now, and the time was not yet ripe.

"But if you continue to stay here, tomorrow the emperor's holy decree will come to the Hou Gongfu, your charges have been confirmed, and if you are imprisoned, there will really be no chance at all." Bian Luo stared at him in a low voice.

Duan Wangchen slowly let go of his collar, his brows furrowed, and his mind was very messy. But the more chaotic he is, the more he has to tell himself that there is no chaos at all, otherwise all the hard work of so many years will really be over.

"Shishu, you go and inform the old lady and ask her to pack her things, and say that I will take her to play outside Zhenbei Pass."

He exhaled heavily and said to Bian Luo, "You go to Zhuyun Yuan and bring Ah Ge over." "He is going to Qiuqian Yuan and bring Jiang Wanyin over, Jiang Wanyin is the person Xuanyuan Jing cares about the most, with her, he will listen to him somewhat.

"Yes."

After Bian Luo came down, he hurried away.

She went to Zhuyun Garden, and without saying anything, she tied up Song Qingge and Fu Rou together and took them out of Zhuyun Garden. Song Qingge had never seen him, but she recognized his voice, which she had heard in the ancestral hall last time.

"Is a dignified Zhenbei general so rude that he went directly to the Hou Gong's mansion to rob people?" She didn't know what had happened, but being tied up and taken out of Zhuyunyuan by a man was a humiliating thing.

"It was Master Hou who called me here." Bian Luo said coldly.

"You talk nonsense! Cousin, he wouldn't do that to me! She wanted to scare him with the relationship between herself and Duan Wangchen, but he only had a cold face and was not afraid of her at all.

"If you don't let go of me, cousin, he won't let you go!" She had no choice but to scare him again.

"Don't shout, if it weren't for the fact that it was useless to keep your life, do you think Master Hou would take you away?" Bian Luo turned his head and looked at her with a sneer.

"What do you mean by that? What does it mean to keep my life and some use? You make it clear! Song Qingge was a little panicked, not knowing what Duan Wangchen was going to do.

"Luo Jingsheng handed over the letters I have exchanged with Hou Ye over the years to the hands of the four princes, and there are countless incriminating evidence in them, do you think Hou Ye will still take care of you? It's just to keep your life alive, so that you can threaten to fall into the mirror in the future! He snorted, ignored her, and pulled the rope in his hand hard, ignoring her bared teeth.

Song Qingge was stunned, knowing Duan Wangchen's intention to take her away. If Luo Jingsheng was threatened by him, then he would also die.

She was angry and anxious, but at this time, the heavens should not be called the earth, every place in the house was in a panic, and the people were busy packing up their things, and she was led around by Bian Luo and went to Duan Wangchen's study.

It didn't take long for the Wang family to be coaxed by the servant and taken to Duan Wangchen's study. She looked at Song Qingge, who was tied up by Bian Luo, and asked him, "What are you doing here?" Why tie her up? "It's just a trip to the north of the town, as for such a big fight?

She thought it was really going to play, but she also noticed that something was wrong.

When Duan Wangchen went to Jiang Jiang's Autumn Garden, she was still in the pavilion and drinking tea. Duan Wangchen had avoided her for so many days, and when he saw him appear in the Autumn Garden, he immediately stood up and walked in front of him, "Did you release those news?" Do you want to discredit the reputation of the fourth brother? ”

She was full of questions, and at this moment she said everything in front of him.

"Yes, I put it." He admitted it in one breath, then turned his head to Rue Xiang and said, "Go and pack up the eldest lady's things, we are going to the north of the town to play for a few days." ”

"What are you going to do in the north of the town? I'm not going! She hasn't investigated this matter yet, so she won't go to Zhenbei with him.

"I can't help you this time, I will go when I say go." Duan Wangchen grabbed her hand, no longer giving her a chance to explain, and directly pulled her to the outside of Zhuyun Garden.

"You, you let go of me, let go!" Jiang Wanyin didn't want to go with him, so she lowered her head and bit him hard, Duan Wangchen screamed in pain, but he didn't let go, and directly reached out and hit the back of her neck, making her faint.

Rue Xiang packed up her things and came out to see this scene, the whole person was shocked, and after being glared at by Duan Wangchen, she hurriedly withdrew her eyes and followed him.

When he carried Jiang Wanyin outside the study, he found that it had become a mess, Song Qingge was tied up by Bian Luo, Bian Luo was counted by the Wang family, and he was explaining to the Wang family with a look of embarrassment.

Seeing Duan Wangchen coming back, he stepped forward to hold his hand as if he had met a savior, and asked him to calm the old lady's emotions.

He put Jiang Wanyin down and let Bian Luo support him.

"Grandmother, we're just going to the north of the town for a few days, so we don't have to be too nervous." He soothed her softly.

"Since you're going to play for a few days, why do you want to drag your family with you? Still packing so many things? Chen'er, tell your grandmother honestly, have you committed any crime? ”

Her eyes were sharp, and she stared at him motionlessly.

A few drops of hot sweat broke out on Duan Wangchen's forehead, but he still patiently explained to her, "It's you who are too worried, now that I am valued by the emperor, how can I commit a crime?" ”

"If it weren't for that, why would we make such a big fuss, those who don't know think we're on the run!"

She took the faucet cane in her hand and knocked it.

"You go with your grandson first, and then you can explain to you slowly when you get there." Duan Wuchen wanted to explain to her again, but Bian Luo next to him reminded him, "Master Hou, there's no time." ”

He looked at Duan Wuchen and shook his head.

"Grandmother, don't blame your grandson for being disrespectful to you." After saying that, he stretched out his hand to knock her unconscious, and carried her to the study.

Song Qingge wanted to break free from the rope in her hand, but the waiter hurriedly stopped her when she found out, "Second lady, please cooperate." ”

Duan Wangchen, who was walking in front, heard the voice, his body froze for a moment, and then hurriedly walked forward.

There is a tunnel hidden in the study, which is the back road left by Duan Wangchen, and he is afraid that one day this matter will be exposed.

Song Qingge looked at the furnishings in this room, and then she knew that there was a hole in it, and she sneered at the corners of her lips. Unexpectedly, Duan Wuchen had planned early on, she had been by his side for so many years, and she didn't even notice it at all.

When he went outside, Bian Luo had already arranged for someone to answer outside, and Song Qingge was escorted into the carriage by the waiter. Duan Wangchen and Wang were in a carriage, and Jiang Wanyin was led by Bian Luo.

When Luo Jingsheng rushed to the Hou Gong's mansion, the building was already empty.

"Childe, they must not have gone far yet, and we may be able to catch up." Yu Feng searched in the Hou Gong's mansion, but found no trace of them, he ran to Luo Jingsheng.

Luo Jingsheng glanced around, thought for a moment and said: "We didn't notice anything unusual on the way we came, they must have gone out from another exit, there should be other tunnels in this mansion." ”

When Yu Feng told him the news that Bian Luo had gone to the Hou Mansion, he had just come out of the Jing Palace, and as soon as he came out, he rushed to the Hou Mansion, but who knew that he was still a step late.

"If there is an authenticity, it must be in Duan Wangchen's study." When he had finished speaking, he went to his study. After going in and searching for it a few times, I found a switch in the booklet.

Only when he came out of the tunnel, only the traces of the wheels of the carriage remained, and even a figure could not be seen.

"Look in this direction, it's like the road to the north of the town." Yu Feng looked around for a while, and saw that the traces of the wheels were heading in the direction of the north of the town.

"Bian Luo is the general of Zhenbei, and their only way out is to go to Zhenbei. It's just that now, Ah Ge and I are even more difficult to rescue. ”

Luo Jingsheng looked in the direction of the north of the town and clenched the sword in his hand. His eyes were full of remorse, and when he got the correspondence between the two of them, he should have gone to the Hou Mansion to save Song Qingge first, but now he really missed the opportunity.

"Senior brother, how's it going?"

Behind, the sound of cloud dancing was heard. She also found the entrance to the tunnel, and came out of it, her face still stained with dust.

"It's already gone."

He turned around and walked forward.

"Aren't you chasing?" As soon as Yun Wu came out, he had to chase after him, and he was really tired.

"Bian Luo is a general of Zhenbei, not a vegetarian. In a hurry, he is better than us. "Neither will the mirror.

Yun Wu wanted to say something, but after being pulled by the wind, he also stopped.

Song Qingge's hands were always tied, and Fu Rou sat beside her, staring at the waiter with wide eyes like her. The waiter was looked at by the two of them, and lowered his head and lowered.

"What the hell is wrong with him, cousin?" Song Qingge asked him again, his face was extremely cold.

"Slaves, slaves don't know." The waiter whispered back, he really didn't know.

After Bian Luo arrived at the study, he had been waiting outside the study, and he didn't know what was being talked about inside, only that as soon as Duan Wangchen came out, he asked him to take the old lady outside the study.

"You don't know, you follow Hou Ye every day, and you dare to say that you don't know?!" Song Qingge threatened him coldly.

"The slave only knows that the Hou Ye has offended the four princes, and the slave knows so much..." was forced to ask too much, and in desperation, the servant could only squeeze out such a sentence.

Song Qingge sneered, what he said was no different from what he didn't say. The matter between Xuanyuan Jing and Jiang Wanyin, she had already guessed that it was leaked by Duan Wangchen.

It's just that why she wants to flee to the north of the town now, she can't figure it out. And when she went to Zhenbei, she didn't know if Luo Jingsheng would find Zhenbei, let alone if she could see him again.

promised him at Guan Ju Pavilion, is she going to lose her words again?

She bit her lip, and a pang of worry appeared between Junxiu's eyebrows.
