Chapter Ninety-Four: He's True to You
After that day, He Shufan borrowed two sets of clothes from Meng Qinghe, bought a bamboo basket from the street, and spread soft cloth into the basket.
In the evening, he put the little bell in a basket on a low couch by the window, and put folded clothes beside the basket, so that he could sleep peacefully.
Little Bell doesn't want to bother with He Shufan at all now, except for curling up in the basket all day, he secretly crawls out to play.
He Shufan went out to look for it at first, but later found out that the little white snake was deliberately avoiding him, so he didn't bother to bother anymore.
However, Meng Qinghe looked at it and always felt that something was wrong with him.
He Shufan often wandered when he spoke, or he was startled, as if he was being stepped on by his tail.
When he wanders, he looks a bit like the stunned demons on the street.
Yes, the out-of-body demons mentioned by Shangguan Lan also appeared on the streets of the imperial capital.
As for people, Meng Qinghe didn't pay much attention to it, after all, there have been fools of the human race since ancient times, and it is not unusual.
These demons walk on the streets, ordinary people don't notice anything unusual, but it's impossible for a demon hunter who is in the imperial capital not to notice it.
It seems that the dark tide of the imperial capital is surging, not just above the court.
I wonder if there is such an anomaly in other towns?
The demon guard sent out by He Shufan to investigate, there is no news yet.
The Queen Mother sent someone to give Meng Qinghe a lot of valuable gifts, and Princess Anyang also came to the inn to find her a few times, and every time she came, she brought a few bags of precious medicinal herbs, saying that it was for Ye Jibai's body.
Although Princess Anyang was refined into a puppet by Ye Jibai, she still has her own consciousness on weekdays.
Although Princess Anyang is calmer than when she was in Qianze City, in the end, it is a teenage girl's family, and when chatting with Meng Qinghe, she is always inseparable from those things of love and love.
When she first returned to the palace, the Queen Mother asked Princess Anyang about her and asked her how Ye Jibai was?
Princess Anyang naturally praised him against the sky, so much so that the Queen Mother immediately wanted to meet the mysterious master of the Yunshan faction.
Is there really such a perfect person in the world?
The Queen Mother didn't believe it.
Later, Ye Jibai refused to enter the palace to get rid of the demon, which made the Queen Mother feel that Princess Anyang was confused by Ye Jibai's appearance.
Since Princess Anyang is interested in Ye Jibai, and the Queen Mother has the heart to win over the power of the Yunshan faction, and the matter of eliminating demons is related to the secrets of the royal family, if Ye Jibai is willing to stay in the imperial capital, it will save a lot of trouble.
The Queen Mother sent Princess Anyang to Qianze City, originally ordering Princess Anyang to lure Ye Jibai to the imperial capital no matter what means she used.
Now as Princess Anyang wishes, why not recruit Ye Jibai as a concubine?
When Princess Anyang said this, she glanced at Meng Qinghe's face, covered her mouth and smiled: "Of course not, Ye Gongzi has a heart, how can he be my concubine?" β
Meng Qinghe lowered his head and drank tea, listening to Princess Anyang talk about these things that happened during her coma.
Meng Qinghe promised Princess Anyang on the way to the imperial capital that she would protect her safety, but now that she has become Ye Jibai's puppet, Meng Qinghe has to ask her what she means.
While she's sober.
Meng Qinghe asked, "Do you want to leave the palace?" β
Knowing that the first emperor was bewitched by the succubus, there were only a few important ministers of the court, and the concubines of the harem scolded Xiyu every day for being a fox spirit, but they didn't dare to argue on the surface.
The most important thing is that those concubines can't get out of the palace gate in this life, and it is impossible for those pickled things in the palace to be revealed from their mouths.
And Princess Anyang is different, she will marry sooner or later.
After Ye Jibai resisted the decree and refused to marry, the fate of Princess Anyang was either to die in the palace of old age, or to marry the children and grandchildren of those important ministers, and became a tool for power disputes.
Meng Qinghe guessed that the latter was more likely.
Princess Anyang was able to go out of the palace to find Meng Qinghe in the past few days, which does not mean that the Queen Mother trusts her, otherwise there would not be so many guards in the lobby downstairs.
When Meng Qinghe leaves the imperial capital, who can protect her?
Seeing that Princess Anyang was stunned, Meng Qinghe asked again: "Do you have a place you want to go?" β
Princess Anyang shook her head, "I used to be naΓ―ve, and I always wanted to avenge my mother and my grandfather's family, but later, I realized how small I am, not to mention revenge, that is, to live, it is also like walking on thin ice, and the sky beyond the high wall is unthinkable." β
"You can think about it now."
Princess Anyang still shook her head, "That day when I fell into the water in the mountains, I had no ambition to live in the world, but I just wanted to see the fate of those people." β
Meng Qinghe was puzzled, "If you leave the palace and start over, how can you make a living?" β
"Qinghe, you don't have to persuade me, I won't hide it from you, I have signed a contract with Ye Gongzi, he will help me take revenge, and I will use it for him."
The heavy snow on Chinese New Year's Eve three years ago buried the blood of the General's Mansion and the life of Princess Anyang.
She wants revenge more than fleeing the palace and starting over in a place where no one knows her.
Only when her heart is freed can she truly escape from that cage.
Ye Jibai was rarely merciful, and gave her a choice, probably because Meng Qinghe had promised to ensure that she had no worries.
Princess Anyang didn't want to mention her own affairs anymore, so she turned the conversation on Meng Qinghe, "Ye Gongzi may not be a good person, but he is sincere to you, you don't have to bear him." β
Which eye do you see that I am going to bear him?
Meng Qinghe put down the teacup, his expression was slightly gloomy, and asked, "Who is your enemy?" β
If Princess Anyang's maternal grandfather's family was killed by the first emperor, her revenge should be avenged.
But looking at Princess Anyang's expression, with Meng Qinghe's intuition, this matter is not so simple.
Princess Anyang looked at the gray sky outside the window and said, "Back then, General Weiyuan supported the Six Princes, and the officials who impeached him were supporters of the Crown Prince. β
So this matter has nothing to do with the crown prince and even the queen mother.
Although the Queen Mother listened to Meng Qinghe's advice and abolished the position of Prince Ye Hong, she did not take his life.
Ye Hong is now imprisoned in the side hall of Cishou Palace, which shows that the Queen Mother still has the intention of protecting him.
The queen mother has become a human spirit, if she really wants to protect the prince, how can she release the news of the prince's murder?
caused the court to shake, several princes were originally competing in secret, but now they have all moved to the surface, the bones of the first emperor are not cold, and these sons have fought for the throne.
Only when the situation is chaotic can the troublemakers catch those forces that are unfavorable to them and collapse them one by one.
What the Queen Mother wants is not a benevolent monarch, but an obedient puppet.
Ye Jibai relied on magic to control the puppets, while the Queen Mother relied on people's hearts.
The court of Tian'an Kingdom is about to usher in a storm.
At this time, if Ye Jibai gets involved, he will directly come to a lore and destroy the old spirit of the Queen Mother, the royal family of Tian'an Kingdom, wouldn't it really be a mess.
The royal family is in chaos, how can the imperial capital be peaceful?
The imperial capital is in chaos, and the Tian'an Kingdom will be in turmoil sooner or later.
Meng Qinghe thought of the strangely behaving demons that appeared in the imperial capital and Qianze City, and the fog that had shrouded her heart in recent days suddenly dissipated.
So that's how it was!
