Chapter 7: Sleeping with Wolves

"If you have something happy, you might as well say it and share it with your second brother."

Xiao Yan smiled, like a gentle spring breeze, which made people unconsciously let down their guard against him.

Yan Tao smiled shyly, "I'm happy for Sister Rou'er, she is going to participate in the queen mother's selection of concubines for the prince, with her family background and appearance, I believe she will definitely be selected." ”

After Yan Tao finished speaking, she felt that her words sounded a little tea-tea-tea.

After all, she and Xiang Dairou usually don't have a good relationship, and if the king doesn't see the king, it is hard to believe that she will be really happy that Xiang Dairou was selected as the crown princess.

But Yan Tao was really happy at this time, and the strings that had been tense for two months seemed to be loosened in an instant, which was very comfortable.

She opened her hand under the flower tree in the breeze and turned a big circle, her skirt fluttered, rolled up a pile of fallen flowers, gently held it in her hand, and then bent down and smiled to Xiao Yan:

"Second brother, flowers with beauty!"

Xiao Yan was slightly stunned.

He took the falling flower, raised his eyes and glanced at Yan Tao, and smiled lightly: "I'm also very happy, the person who went was Rou'er, not you." ”

“……”

The smile on Yan Tao's face gradually became sluggish.

When Xiao Yan turned her wheelchair and left, she was still standing under the tree, scratching her little head blankly.

According to her memory of the plot, Xiao Ergongzi seems to be one of the heroine's beautiful male harem group, so it shouldn't be interesting to her......

The wound on my forehead started to hurt again.

Seven days later.

Yan Tao's injuries have been recuperated, and Kyoto is also full of turmoil.

Dali Temple searched everywhere for the murderer of the Nine Princes, and even took the eldest brother of the Xiao family to inspect day and night, and never returned home.

From the various evidences left at the scene, the emperor concluded that it was the subordinates of the Nine Princes who killed the master.

The man was forced to flee.

As for how the government rounded up later, and whether that person successfully escaped from Kyoto, more news did not reach Yan Tao's ears again.

She only knew that Mo Shiyuan had wiped out a prince, but he had thrown it cleanly, and successfully transferred the suspicion to the commander-in-chief of Yu Linwei, who had planned to assassinate several of his cronies.

Marrying this kind of man, what is it called?

Call to sleep with the wolf!

Yan Tao was once again glad that she slipped away quickly.

"Peach, what are you thinking?" Xiao Yan held the teacup and looked at her gently.

I don't know if it's Yan Tao's illusion, since deciding who to send to the East Palace, this second son always likes to come to her to enjoy flowers and drink tea.

Yan Tao honestly made tea for Xiao Yan and said, "I'm thinking about the case of the Ninth Prince...... Is it possible that the murderer is someone else? ”

Xiao Yan was silent.

After a while, he said softly: "Even if there is another person, the emperor has opened the golden mouth, whether it is now or in the future, it is impossible to overturn the case." ”

Yan Tao was stunned, recalling what Mo Shiyuan said that night, "ten days later", and seemed to understand something.

The Imperial City is terrible.

Mom, she wants to go on a long voyage.

"Second brother, I suddenly thought that I had something to do, and I would come back and have tea with you." Yan Tao stood up suddenly.

"Huh?"

Xiao Yan raised his eyebrows after taking a sip of tea, and watched the little girl fly away with the corner of her skirt.

Yan Tao went back to the house and changed into a plain green coat and prepared to go out.

At the beginning, she made an appointment with others to meet in the mountains behind Xiangguo Temple, and left Kyoto together to go to the rivers and lakes, but there was an accident on the way and she couldn't go to the appointment, and because she was injured, she never had the opportunity to explain to the person.

Swallow Tao crossed the avenue in the middle of Kyoto, leaving the area where the nobles lived, and went around the city of the bridge.
