Chapter VII Winning Letters

Although Bai Xiaofu is just his own guess now, he doesn't know how he believes in seven or eight points, he doesn't believe that there is such an oolong thing in the world, is it really unstable for a person as big as Princess Changhui, and why is the action he saw underwater, and finally someone slapped his mouth with his hand, is it really a coincidence?

The more Bai Xiaofu thought about it, the more frightened he became, if it was really what he thought, then the four princes he usually saw were all pretended, and he was also the person he wanted to kill this time, so as an accident that should be eliminated but accidentally stayed, what is the outcome of his future is obvious. How to keep yourself alive? If you wait for the matter to be over, let the second prince directly let himself live, he is a eunuch and is only five or six years old, no matter how long he can live, if he is discovered, he will be a fugitive slave in the palace, regardless of the reason, and the local government can be directly executed. Besides, the four princes will not let themselves go. If you tell the second prince about this, what will the second prince do, although the second prince looks gentle and elegant, but is it really like this in his heart? Now the matter is an accident, the second prince is only temporarily locked up, and the emperor is just looking for a reason to give an explanation to Princess Changhui, but if this layer of gauze wrapped in the truth is really revealed, the court will be a bloody storm, which no one wants to see, and even the emperor probably hopes that the big things will be turned into small things, and he will not be able to please either side in the end, or maybe the second prince will kill himself directly, so as not to make a noise. This road will definitely not work, then the other way is to become the person of the Four Princes, and stand on the same team with the Four Princes, the reason why the Four Princes want to kill him is because he is the person of Concubine De, maybe it is inconvenient for him to move during the days he is in, so he uses this time to kill himself. But if he also becomes his confidant, then the external contradiction becomes an internal contradiction, and Jiang Zhen has been disciplined very strictly by Concubine De since he was a child, the little eunuchs, little palace maids and even the guards in his palace are carefully selected by Concubine De, Bai Xiaofu is gambling, betting that Jiang Zhen lacks his own people, and he is also betting on whether his ability can attract Jiang Zhen.

Two days later, Princess Changhui died of high fever due to unresolved water poison. Bai Xiaofu stayed in the Second Prince's Mansion until Princess Changhui was buried before asking to see the Second Prince, and the Second Prince smiled when he saw Bai Xiaofu kneeling at the bottom, and said: "You are a scheming person, now that the wind is calm and you come out again, I have forgotten your existence." ”

Bai Xiaofu knelt calmly and said, "Thank you for the second prince's life-saving grace, and I ask the second prince for one thing." ”

The second prince smiled again and said, "But let this king let you out of the mansion?"

Bai Xiaofu said: "No, the slave is the slave of the fourth prince, and he must be loyal to the fourth prince, the slave just wants to ask the second prince to send the slave back to the fourth prince." ”

The second prince thought that he didn't expect this result, and frowned slightly and looked at this little chamberlain.

At this time, the porter arrived: "The fourth prince asks to see His Highness." ”

The second prince said: "Fourth brother, it's just the right time, please invite the fourth prince in." Then he bowed his head and said to Bai Xiaofu: "Your master came at the right time, you have a heart." ”

The fourth prince glanced at Bai Xiaofu, who was kneeling on the ground, without a trace, and said: "What a coincidence, the younger brother came today to see if my little chamberlain was in the imperial brother's mansion, but I didn't expect it to be there, the younger brother took the little eunuch away, and the days without this little eunuch are much more boring." ”

When the second prince heard this, his sword eyebrows frowned slightly, and he was a little surprised in his heart, and then showed a friendly smile and said: "The fourth brother really accepted a good slave, this little slave just begged me to send him back to the fourth brother, I haven't sent the fourth brother yet, but I came to ask for someone, presumably this little eunuch also has something extraordinary." ”

When the fourth prince heard this, he also looked at Bai Xiaofu and said: "I didn't know that my little slave was so loyal to the Lord, it seems that I will treat him well in the future." ”

After that, the two exchanged a few words of greeting, and the fourth prince took Bai Xiaofu away.

Back in the palace, Bai Xiaofu knelt down and saluted: "The slave greets the master, the master is in great trouble and unharmed, and there will be great blessings in the future." ”

Jiang Zhen smiled on his face, walked around Bai Xiaofu, stood in front of Bai Xiaofu, and said, "Get up, does this prince also want to congratulate you, if you don't die, there will be a blessing?" I heard the second emperor brother say that you want to come back and be my slave, I don't know if you want to be better to you in the future if you are so loyal. ”

Bai Xiaofu stood opposite Jiang Zhen, Jiang Zhen suddenly turned sideways and put his mouth close to Bai Xiaofu's ear: "Do you want to see Lonely, or do you want to see Lonely's mother, but I'm afraid you can't wait to see Lone's mother." ”

Bai Xiaofu felt that Jiang Zhen pounced on himself fiercely, his hand was about to pinch his neck, Bai Xiaofu didn't know where his small body got so much strength, raised his arm and waved away Jiang Zhen's right hand, and then turned to the right to avoid Jiang Zhen's attack, Jiang Zhen just wanted to pounce again, Bai Xiaofu hurriedly stepped back, put his hands in front of him to make a defensive gesture, and said busily: "It is very inappropriate for His Highness to kill the slave now, the slave saw what His Highness did that day, it was the water poison that His Highness gave to Princess Changhui, The minions all saw it. ”

Jiang Zhen's expression instantly became a little vicious, Bai Xiaofu looked at him like this and continued: "If Your Highness wants to execute the slave now, the slave will shout out about this matter now, the people outside this palace are all sent by the mother, and there may be people inserted by the emperor, what His Highness has done is not to want the emperor and the mother to know!" ”

Just when Jiang Zhen pounced on Bai Xiaofu again, Bai Xiaofu deliberately shouted: "Please, the fourth prince spared the little one, the little one didn't dare." Then he deftly dodged it.

Fu said in his usual voice: "Your Highness can do it if you are small. Ask Your Highness to let go of the small ones, and the small ones will be tight-lipped like bottles. ”

Jiang Zhen stopped his movements and stared at Bai Xiaofu viciously, suppressed his anger, and said in a deep voice: "You dare to threaten me!" ”

Bai Xiaofu did not relax his vigilance, and hurriedly said: "The slave doesn't dare, the slave just wants to be His Highness's person, be used by His Highness, and save his own life." If His Royal Highness kills the slave now, even if the slave doesn't tell the matter, it is difficult to ensure that the emperor and Niangniang do not doubt that His Royal Highness has pretended to be clumsy in front of people for so many years, and he wants to seek the position of that great treasure, and the small one wants to help His Highness to repay His Highness for not killing today. If the little one guessed correctly, Jiying's father-in-law estimated that he was on the way here, and His Royal Highness spared the little life of the little one today, and the little one must mention that His Royal Highness kept it a secret and was loyal to His Royal Highness. ”

Jiang Zhen sneered: "How can this palace believe you, this palace is not a fool, you can go with him as soon as Jiying comes later, tell the queen mother about it and let him save your life, since you have seen it, how can you not know that I am also going to kill you, how can I not hate it in my heart." ”

Bai Xiaofu continued: "Your Highness, the little one just wants to live, and the little one can only live with His Highness, His Royal Highness is also short of manpower, why not accept the small one, if the little one tells the mother, the most secret is the dead man, the mother will not let the little one live through tomorrow, and can do it without leaving any traces." I beg Your Highness to believe in the little one. ”

Bai Xiaofu has been paying attention to the changes in Jiang Zhen's application, and now Jiang Zhen's expression is a little loose, Bai Xiaofu retreated to a safe position, knelt in front of Jiang Zhen, kowtowed three times, stretched out three fingers to the sky and swore to the sky: "Bai Xiaofu swears here, he will be the slave of the fourth prince Jiang Zhen in this life, be loyal, and never betray, if he violates this oath, he will die without a place to be buried, and he will fall into the way of beasts in the next life." His eyes looked at Jiang Zhen sincerely, and then kowtowed to Jiang Zhen reverently.

At this time, there was a message from outside the door: "Jiying's father-in-law has arrived." ”

Father-in-law Jiying entered the palace and saluted the four princes first, and then said: "In the past few days, Niangniang has been thinking about His Royal Highness. ”

As soon as the fourth prince entered the palace door from Jiying's father-in-law, he put on his usual cynical expression, and sat on Bai Xiaofu's back in this kneeling posture, and then said: "Help Gu thank the queen mother, but you don't have to send it again in the future, you can order the palace people to do it yourself if you want to eat." Jiying's father-in-law can retire first if he is fine. ”

As if he hadn't heard Jiang Zhen's words, Jiying continued: "I heard that His Royal Highness is going to the Second Highness's Mansion today to return the little slave sent by Niangniang to His Highness, but this one under His Highness. Niangniang asked the servant to take this little chamberlain to ask questions and knock knock, Niangniang was also afraid that this would stay with His Royal Highness for a few days, and this little thing would be insincere, and he would always have to review and observe it again. ”

At this time, Bai Xiaofu felt that he was pricked by a needle in his leg, and his leg was numb instantly. Jiang Zhen got up from Bai Xiaofu, kicked Bai Xiaofu's body with his foot, and then sneered and said: "The queen mother is so distrustful of Lonely, good, it's really good, the queen mother is also good at choosing people, the slave who can't die with poison in the water, the queen mother is really good!" Get lost! ”

Bai Xiaofu stood up and followed Jiying's father-in-law out of the hall, only to hear the sound of something being kicked over behind him, and Jiying's father-in-law still walked in front with an expressionless face.

Bai Xiaofu thought about a lot of rhetoric along the way, but he still felt that his head was empty. Before I knew it, I came to Concubine De's bedroom.

Seeing Concubine De again, Bai Xiaofu still felt a sense of oppression.

Concubine De put down the book in her hand, glanced at Bai Xiaofu and said, "How did the four princes fall into the water that day." The calm tone made the sense of oppression in Bai Xiaofu's heart even stronger.

Bai Xiaofu was still that deferential servant, and calmly stated: "That day, the Four Highnesses were drunk, and the servants helped the Four Highnesses and several princes and princesses to enjoy the lake together. ”

"Why are you still alive, it was the second prince who saved you, what does the second prince have to do with you, why do you want to save you, a minion." This question was asked very sharply, and fortunately, on the way, Bai Xiaofu thought of what Concubine De wanted to ask him, otherwise he really didn't know how to make it up.

Bai Xiaofu deliberately made a look of panic, then knelt down tremblingly, and said tremblingly: "The slave didn't have any contact with the second prince, and the second prince didn't really fish up the slave to save the slave, I was afraid that he fished the small one because he died in his lake and it was unlucky." The slave has no dissent, please believe in the slave. Then he trembled and began to kowtow.

Concubine De looked at the little eunuch frightened like this, and she also checked the situation of the eunuch before entering the palace very clearly, and said casually if there was nothing suspicious: "Get up, this palace will ask you again, how did the four princes go to find you in person, when did you have such a good relationship with the four princes, and why didn't you go back to the palace earlier since you are still alive." ”

Bai Xiaofu didn't seem to have recovered from the trembling state just now, and when he heard the second half of the sentence, his body trembled even more, and even his lips trembled a little, and he said in a panic: "The little one doesn't know why the fourth prince went to find the little one, the fourth prince just said that he wanted to ride a horse, and let the slave give him a horse to ride." There is also a small one who has not found the second prince when he was in the second prince's mansion, and no one has taken care of the small one, and the little one doesn't know how to return to the palace. ”

Concubine De knew that this little chamberlain was lying when she looked at his expression, but she also knew that as long as this little chamberlain appeared at that time, the third prince would not keep him in order to vent his anger, so this little chamberlain hid and came out when the wind calmed down, but I don't know if it was someone else who suggested it or if he came up with it himself, of course, these are not important things. Concubine De didn't dwell on it anymore, but she also believed that what Bai Xiaofu said earlier was true.
