Chapter 034: Praying Mantis Catches Cicadas

"I'll go see Jin Zhaoyi first." Find an excuse to get out quickly, Bai Qige really can't stand being sandwiched between two men with different goals, how they like to fight, it has nothing to do with her.

After seeing Bai Qige's figure disappear completely, the soft smile on Yi Chenxuan's face disappeared, and the expression on his younger brother became much colder: "She is smarter than you and I imagined, if she doesn't handle it well, it will be easy to get burned." Now that your father values you very much, why bother pretending to be crazy and stupid? Chenjing, it's not me who stands in the way of your future, you don't have to treat me as your primary enemy all the time, as for her...... What I can give her, you can never give. ”

"The Fifth Emperor Brother is still so confident." Yi Chenjing was not annoyed, and the thin lip line outlined a faint smile, "I don't know if the Fifth Emperor Brother has thought about it upside down, what I can give her, can you give it?" ”

can control the Zhao ** government, can control the life and death of the Bai family, these can only be done by him Yi Chenjing.

Turning around and leaving without hesitation, Yi Chenjing chased in the direction where Bai Qige's figure disappeared, leaving Yi Chenxuan alone to stand in place.

"Jinyan, you must keep an eye on it before the banquet is over, I'm afraid tonight's wine will be easy to get intoxicating." With a flash of sharp eyes, Yi Chenxuan returned to his usual gentleness, stepped into the East Palace with a smile on his face, and the stunning man standing respectfully behind him nodded slightly, looking at the inner courtyard with a blank face, not knowing what he was thinking.

Compared with other female dependents, Bai Qige is relatively faceless among everyone, except for gossiping with Su Yan and Jin Zhaoyi, she can only drink with her head down, Su Yan only said that she was far away from her hometown and was depressed and did not stop her, but after a few rounds of wine and food, Xiao Shi Mi Fendai's face was already two crimson.

"I'm in a hurry to drink today, I don't understand what chess skills that person talks about, I'll go back first before I get drunk, and I will come to the door to make amends to Jin Zhaoyi when I have time one day."

Jin Zhaoyi has never seen a woman who drinks so fiercely, and she is also worried in her heart: "If you don't feel well, go back early, and you don't have to make amends or anything, just walk around more during the day and talk more with me, this wine can be avoided." ”

"Your Highness, I'm afraid I still have to entertain for a while, so I'll go back with you." Su Yan put down the dishes and chopsticks and wanted to get up, but was stopped by Bai Qige.

"Your Highness doesn't drink well, sister, you know, in case you get drunk again, you can't take care of it by your side." Bai Qige pressed Su Yan back to his original position, and after whispering beside Yi Chenjing, he retreated alone.

Of course, she wasn't drunk, everything was going according to the plan she had set before, and the next step was to sneak into the apse.

Yu Che said before that among the princes, the crown prince and the five princes have the most capable people, and there will naturally be no fewer masters lurking in the East Palace, the reason why Yi Chenjing chose to let Bai Qige risk infiltrating instead of the battle court is afraid of being discovered by the hidden master - Bai Qige is a married princess after all, and she is not familiar with the place soon after entering the palace, so it is understandable to take the wrong path and mistakenly break into the harem; Second, as a woman, entering the apse will not violate the rules, and it will not make others suspicious.

There are very few people coming and going in the apse, and there is no one in the left wing room on weekdays, the guards are not as strict as the study of the prince's bedroom, and there are many female dependents who came to the banquet today, so the guards guarding the door did not ask too much, and when they saw Bai Qige's drunken face and full of alcohol, they thought that the princess had asked her to come here to rest, and frowned and let her go directly.

After entering the apse, Bai Qige immediately changed into a twelve-point spirit, groping for more than ten rooms from left to right.

Yi Chenjing was not sure whose thing he was looking for, and his subordinates who were watching outside only said that there was always a concubine who came here late at night to have a private meeting with the prince, because the concubine was dressed in common clothes and veiled, and every time she went back, she left extremely carefully through the back door of the East Palace in the high-walled compound and could not continue to track, so she couldn't be sure which one in which palace.

Yao Guo has the custom of giving purse folding fans between couples, and what Bai Qige has to do is to find out if the concubine left the purse as soon as possible when everyone is feasting in the front hall, and if so, you can know who the concubine is by the embroiderer on the purse.

Maybe everything seems ridiculous and boring, but if you think about it, you will understand the depth of Yi Chenjing's intentions.

The position of the crown prince is extremely difficult to shake, unless he commits a crime that is enough to make Emperor Yao Long Yan angry, and the filthy harem is the thing that Emperor Yao hates, who values the atmosphere, the most hated, even if he does not abolish the prince because of this, he will be greatly disappointed, so as to give Yi Chenjing, who is being favored, a chance. I don't know what the prince thinks, the crown princess who is sitting on a young, beautiful and powerful backstage, even has six or seven concubines, why take such a big risk to provoke the emperor's woman? Bai Qige sighed silently, silently feeling sorry for the concubine who was likely to die because of the revelation of this matter.

There was no light in the empty room, Bai Qige could only use the moonlight outside the window to look around, the funny thing is that a few carefully embroidered purses could be found in each room, and when he walked to the sixth room, Bai Qige was already dazzled.

"Where do people in their thirties get so much energy? Every day, the big supplement is not added to the brain, and it is absorbed by the sperm worm. Helplessly, he continued to rummage through boxes and cabinets, and finally, Bai Qige found a unique purse in the most luxuriously decorated room.

To say that it is different is not to refer to the embroidery pattern, but to the two small characters embroidered on the side.

Clusters.

Bai Qige gasped, Yi Chenjing's confession instantly ran out of the clouds, and all he wanted in his mind was to quickly destroy this purse and not let anyone see it. If she had known that this would be the result, she would not have risked this trip, not only could not satisfy Yi Chenjing, but also knew the most unknowable secret.

Jintuan, Jiang Jintuan, that is the name of Jin Zhaoyi.

In a hurry, there was a sudden sound of neat footsteps outside the room, and the brighter and brighter firelight fully indicated that someone was coming.

"Search me room by room! Don't miss a corner! A man shouted.

The situation is not right, the row of wings in the apse of the East Palace has been idle for a long time, and no one else lives except for the prince who occasionally steals fish at night, and now it is not normal for someone to suddenly come and search around. Bai Qige hid behind the door and patrolled left and right, but there was no place to hide except under the bed and the wardrobe, and these places were inevitably searched, and they couldn't be hidden at all. Looking up at the dark beams, Bai Qige sighed gloomily, she could hide there, but unfortunately with her current physical condition, she couldn't go up at all.

The rummaging and shouting were getting closer and closer, and seeing that a bunch of soldiers were about to search this room, Bai Qige gritted his teeth, hid his purse in his sleeve, and fell to the ground.

The door opened soon sounded, and someone screamed in surprise, and then shone a lantern on the motionless woman on the ground, and turned to report to the leader: "There is a man here!" ”

"Is that the woman?"

"Lord Hui, it's her, and no one else enters the apse."

I don't know who pushed Bai Qige's shoulder, Bai Qige turned over, still lying on the ground with his eyes closed, muttering a bunch of unclear words, as if he was drunk.

"Smoked to death with the smell of alcohol, which palace is this? Ask if anyone knows anyone in front of you! ”

Pretending to be drunk was not difficult for Bai Qige, who had originally planned to use this as an excuse to prevaricate if he was discovered, and this step was already within Yi Chenjing's plan. Bai Qige just thought it was strange, why was no one stopping her when she came in just now, but now Xingshi mobilized a group of people to search for it?

A chill rose, and Bai Qige suddenly realized that maybe she was not the only one who came to the apse of the East Palace, and before she knew it, she was being followed again.

"Wake up, which palace are you in?" The little eunuch who came with him took a lot of effort to help Bai Qige up, and asked with a sad face.

"Go to the East Palace...... Drink, drink again......"

The heavy smell of alcohol hit his face, and the little eunuch's face was about to twist into a ball, he shook his head helplessly and put the person down again, and came to the man with the soldier and bowed down frequently: "My lord, you see that she is drunk like this, I don't know anyone, how can it be that she is here to steal?" Eighty percent is a cheap rumor, we haven't heard of anything lost in this palace! ”

"Okay, okay, Rory is verbose, I don't know that Donggong is stable?" The man leading the team shouted impatiently, "If someone hadn't reported that they had seen a suspicious person, I wouldn't be willing to toss around in the middle of the night!" Damn, I don't know which bastard thing ran to blow the wind in the ears of the princess, the masters were drinking in front of me, our group of slaves ran and broke their legs for some reason, and in the end of the trouble, there was not even a ghost except for the drunk woman, what a fucking bad luck! ”

The gibberish continued to pretend to be drunk, Bai Qige's brain was spinning rapidly, and he kept in mind all the useful information in the conversations of others.

Someone knew that she had infiltrated the apse before reporting the news.

The status of the crown princess is extraordinary, it is a big crime for strangers to enter here without permission, and there is also a theft, this person really wants to force her to death. Fortunately, she has nothing of value on her, no matter how much she is framed, she can't get evidence, the only thing she needs to worry about at the moment is the purse, if she is searched out and asked where she came from, she will definitely not be clear, she can't lie that it was Jin Zhaoyi who gave it to her, right? The object of love is not an ordinary thing, in case someone thinks that the purse was originally placed in the East Palace, I am afraid that Jin Zhaoyi will be difficult to avoid the disaster, and she will no longer be able to get out of the relationship.

Bai Qige in the apse is in trouble, and the front hall is still singing and dancing, but there are more and more absent-minded people.

The eunuch who came in a panic whispered in the ear of the crown princess, and at the same time, the young man with a beautiful face also quietly walked into the banquet and leaned over to say something to the fifth prince, Yi Chenxuan. Everyone's eyes were fixed on the face that was more delicate than a woman, but Yi Chenjing, the seventh prince, paid attention to the change in Yi Chenxuan's expression, and saw that the other party's brows were tightly locked and he was about to go, Yi Chenjing also stood up, his fists clenched in his sleeves.

Yi Chenxuan has always sent someone to stare at Bai Qige, Yi Chenjing knows this, if something happens to her, the first person to know is Yi Chenxuan.

"Why are the five princes and the seventh prince in a hurry to leave?" The voice that penetrated into the bone marrow was like a demon, and the crown princess on the main seat suddenly spoke, with a variety of charms between her eyebrows and eyes, enchanting, and the corners of her lips were smiling, but her eyes were so bright that they were terrifying, "I heard that the apse just caught a kitten that was stealing food, and I don't know which palace it ran out of, why don't we go and see together?" ”
