Zhao Ji looked at these two thin paper faces and turned green, even if he borrowed ten guts, he didn't dare to stick them to the door.

"Isn't Steward Zhao busy, why did he stay in a daze for so long in front of two pieces of paper." Bai Lilan said impatiently, "If Steward Zhao is busy, then let other little people stick to the door, this little thing, I don't need to tell you anymore." Remember, if there are still people who want to break in, just let the family out, the family of the deceased is the greatest, and no one dares to do anything to you. ”

Don't you dare to do anything to yourself, but what about after this? Do you still want to live in the palace for a long time!

"Forget it, Steward Zhao is a slave bully, and even I, the princess, can't be called! Spring breeze, you go to post! ”

"No, no, no, the princess misunderstood the villain," Zhao Ji was so anxious that he was in a cold sweat, and hurriedly explained, "The slave is not afraid of ......"

"Where are there so many things to be afraid of, if Steward Zhao is afraid of everything, then there is no need to be the housekeeper of this palace, go quickly!" Bai Lilan was too lazy to talk to him, so she simply slapped the table and scolded coldly.

Where could Zhao Zhi stand Baililan's intimidation, he ran out of the door at the moment, didn't dare to say a word, and honestly posted two notices outside the gate.

"Hmph, this old slippery head always takes what the county lord says as a deaf ear, I think, I should teach him a lesson, so that he can remember it for a long time!" Xia Yu said, then rubbed his palms, looked at Baili Lan excitedly, and asked, "County Lord, what do you think of this idea?" ”

"Now is not the time to joke," Bai Lilan lightly interrupted Xia Yu and said, "We don't even know what the purpose of the enemy is, and it's easy to be used without knowing it." Now it is necessary to find out who is behind the trouble as soon as possible and reverse the disadvantage! ”

After hearing this, Xia Yu hurriedly restrained his joke and said, "Then the county lord, should we go back to live in the other courtyard tonight, or stay here?" Just now, the slave maid inquired and said that the prince still kept your yard, and no one had ever lived in it, and someone cleaned it every day. ”

"Naturally, stay here!"

Before Bai Lilan could answer, she heard a handsome voice outside the door say this.

"If there is something in the palace, does the princess still have to be alone? If I were you, it would be better to stay in the palace, even if not for the palace, but for the sake of your reputation! Shu Yichen walked to Baili Lan's side in a few steps, and looked at her delicate face with heavy eyes. I haven't stood so close to her for a long time, Shu Yichen feels that his heartbeat is uncontrollable, and the fragrance of the orchid in his hair makes Shu Yichen intoxicated, and he wants to hold her like this, close his eyes, and ignore everything in the world.

"There is a big loophole in the prince's speech." Baili Lan turned sideways and avoided Su Yichen's gaze, "Xiao Shizi has an accident, and I am also very sad, but what does it have to do with my reputation?" Besides, there will be no visitors at night, so what will I do in the palace, I might as well go back to the courtyard and have a good rest. ”

Baili Lan's words made Shu Yichen angry, and his lowered voice was already a precursor to anger, "What's the matter, the palace let you rest badly?" ”

"Of course, it's always calculated, if it's the prince, maybe it's okay to rest? Although the courtyard is remote, it is better to be quiet, which is incomparable to the palace. By the way, since the prince is here to chat with me, but Concubine Ou has already rested? ”

Seeing that Bai Lilan blocked her words, Su Yichen was even more angry, and she didn't have a good tone, "Do you think she is as heartless as you, if it weren't for the doctor who gave her a bowl of soothing soup, I'm afraid she would still be crying." ”

"Hey, the prince has to tell Concubine Ou that she must take care of herself in order to find the murderer of her child and take revenge."

Shu Yiling's face changed, she looked at Bai Lilan with an unpredictable expression, and asked rhetorically, "What did you just say?" ”

"What to say, the prince himself knows it in his heart!" Bai Lilan raised her chin slightly, and looked at Su Yichen with an arrogant expression, as if she wanted to tear off all his disguises, "Ou Qingshan is different from my father, he is full of ambition and full of desire for power. He was afraid that the emperor would be jealous of him, so that one day he would be like my father, who would be like my father, and he would be secretly eliminated by the emperor. So, he needs a trump card, a trump card that can protect his life. And this trump card is you, the prince. Two equally ambitious guys hit it off the most, the prince takes a fancy to Ou Qingshan's military power, and Ou Qingshan appreciates your talent, I hope that one day you can ascend to the throne of the crown prince, or even the throne, so that the knife on his head will not hang there from time to time, and his life is in danger. Isn't Concubine Ou married into the palace under an alliance like yours? This child also came at the right time to strengthen the covenant between you. It's just that some people don't want to see your solid alliance, so they take action to break your tacit understanding a little bit, who this person is, I don't say, the prince will also know. But today's events have nothing to do with that person at all, it's all because of you, Lord Chen! ”

Seeing that when Bai Lilan said these words, he didn't know how to avoid his servants, Shu Yichen couldn't help but be furious, and a murderous intent flashed in his eyes. Voices seemed to pop out of his teeth one by one, "Baililan, do you know what you're talking about!" ”

"Of course I know the truth of the matter!" Baili Lan leaned back leisurely against the chair pillar and said mockingly, "Since the prince has the courage to do it, why don't you have the courage to admit it." If you say that you did all this, then I will still praise you for your life. But now you're like a shrunken turtle, pushing everything away, and I look down on you. The world-famous Prince Chen will only hide under a woman's skirt to live! ”

"You guys, all get out!" Su Yichen turned around and roared loudly at Chunfeng and the others.

After Chunfeng and the others saw Baili Lan's acquiescence again, they left in turn.

Seeing that only the two of them were left here, Shu Yichen no longer concealed his anger, he panted roughly, and approached Baili Lan step by step, his eyes were fierce, as if he was going to eat her.

"You don't know what that seat means to me. For so many years, I have long been accustomed to calculating and being calculated, if I don't have that seat, I'm afraid it won't be long before my name will be hung in the cabinet, like the second prince and the fifth prince, in the eyes of future generations, he is just a prince who died early! You don't know how fierce the battle for royalty is, there is no winning or losing, death or life! Ou Qingshan asked too much, even if he put Zhilan by my side, what could he guarantee? Once something happens, he won't care about a concubine on the side at all! But if the child gets the title, then he is the child's imperial uncle, with a noble status and military power, do you think the ambitious Ou Qingshan will be satisfied with this? You don't understand at all, I not only have to guard against Yiling, I have to guard against Ou Qingshan, but also against my father, I'm so tired of living, you won't understand at all! ”

"So, you killed your child with your own hands? Hmph, no matter how many high-sounding reasons you say, you can't hide that you are a beast! Although it was all her own guess just now, when Shu Yichen said it himself, Bai Lilan still felt sick to her stomach. Tiger poison does not eat children, Su Yichen, it is really ruthless!

Su Yichen didn't think that Bai Lilan would know about the truth, but he didn't think that Bai Lilan would know so quickly, and in front of him, he ruthlessly tore off his disguise, with blood and flesh.

"No matter what you think of me, you will always understand my distress in the future. Being in the royal family, I always can't help myself. ”

"I don't have to make high-sounding excuses for you." Bai Lilan said disdainfully, "Although I don't know what your purpose is for coming over to say these things today, but I'm not interested in knowing, what should be said, the prince seems to have finished speaking, and the hour is not early, I will also go back to the other courtyard, so I won't bother the prince." Spring breeze! ”

A few girls didn't go far, and as soon as they heard Baili Lan's call, they all came over together, looking like they were ready to be on call at any time.

"Concubine Ou has fallen asleep, we should go back too. There are still a lot of things to do in the palace tomorrow, if you don't have a good rest, you really don't have the energy, don't look back and delay something, no one can afford it. Bai Lilan didn't look at Shu Yichen, and left with the maids, and no one dared to stop him.

"Hundred-li-arashi!"

Just as Baili Lan turned around and disappeared at the entrance of the garden, she heard the roar of the man behind her like a lion, and the guards were startled to run over to this side.

Hooking the corners of her mouth sarcastically, Bai Lilan left the Chen Mansion without hesitation.

When Shu Yichen also left the garden, from a dark corner, a thin woman slowly walked out. Through the moonlight, it can be seen that the woman's face is elegant, her eye sockets are deep, and her dull eyes reveal a bitter hatred.

***

After a few people returned to the courtyard, Dongxue had been waiting for a long time, and after seeing Baili Lan, he hurriedly said, "County master, the slave maid heard some rumors in the palace, I am afraid it is related to the death of Xiao Shizi!" ”

"Got it, go in and say!"

Ordered the spring breeze to close the doors and windows, Bai Lilan sat at the table, listening intently to the report of the winter snow.

"Tell me what you know."

"Yes!" Dongxue bowed, and then said coldly, "Today, the slave maid went to the tea shop, and the shopkeeper told me that an earth-shattering event had happened in the palace recently. Concubine Jin has always been at odds with the Queen Mother, but she will never confront the Queen Mother in person, at most she is arrogant. But that day, when the Queen Mother said that Concubine Jin was not behaving properly, Concubine Jin retorted at that time, and her words were fierce, as if there was a tendency not to put the Queen Mother in her eyes. The Queen Mother was angry and almost fainted, but later it was Concubine Qi who heard the news and hurried over to persuade Concubine Jin to return to the palace. But the Queen Mother couldn't afford to be sick, and she didn't eat or drink for three days in a row, just waiting for the emperor to give an explanation. However, the emperor obviously favored Concubine Jin, but instead of punishing him, he did not even show any signs of pleading guilty to the Queen Mother. ”

Speaking too quickly, Dong Xue took a sip of tea, and then said, "The Queen Mother was angry, so she made a decree, saying that Concubine Jin had no respect for her elders and would be confined for three months. thought that this matter would be over, no matter how respectful Concubine Jin was, she couldn't contradict Yi Zhi, but Concubine Jin just did it, and ran to the emperor to cry with the seven princes in her arms, saying that someone wanted to frame their mother and son, and she was afraid that the emperor would favor them too much and endanger the status of those who had a heart. Although Concubine Jin did not point out her name, everyone knew that what Concubine Jin said was not Prince Ling? The Queen Mother has always favored Prince Ling, and since the crown prince was deposed, the position of the prince is between Prince Chen and Prince Ling, pending in the balance. At this moment, Concubine Jin's move made it clear that she was dissatisfied with the Queen Mother's support for Prince Ling. ”
