Zhou Guiren's heart was faintly uneasy.

She was flustered and hurriedly planned a countermeasure.

If you can't find a suitable way to deal with it, you're afraid that you will die and have no place to bury.

That night, a round-faced palace maid walked out of Zhou Guiren's bedroom with a panicked face, walked through the dark night, and hurried towards her residence.

"Stop!"

Suddenly, there was a shout.

The round-faced palace maid shuddered, followed the voice, but saw two guards striding towards her, staring at her unkindly.

Seeing this, the round-faced palace maid's heart trembled, and she suddenly felt bad.

The two guards asked sharply:

"Where are you a palace maid? Where is this going? ”

In fact, the palace maid did rarely travel at night, but there were no palace rules that forbade them to go out, however, this time two guards intercepted and interrogated, which was obviously a bit extraordinary.

The round-faced palace maid suspected that she was being maliciously targeted.

She is Zhou Guiren's sticker maid, and she knows everything Zhou Guiren has done.

Moreover, she also participated in the conspiracy between Zhou Guiren and Prince Zhongshun to kill the second prince.

Now, she was intercepted and interrogated by two guards, and she was naturally a thief and frightened.

One of the guards asked coldly:

"Why don't we answer what we ask you?"

The palace maid hurriedly replied:

"The two military masters, the slave maid is the maid of the Qifang Palace, and she just finished serving Zhou Niangniang and fell asleep, and she was about to go to her room."

Unexpectedly, another guard smiled and said:

"Really? Lift up your head and behold, and I will prove you. ”

After that, he actually reached out to pick the palace maid's chin.

Such an excessive move was unimaginable before.

Seeing this, the round-faced palace maid hurriedly slapped his hand away, took two steps back, and said coldly:

"Master Jun, please respect yourself."

Although the round-faced palace maid occupies the reason, she lacks confidence, and it depends on the owner to beat the dog, since this guard dares to bully herself, it is likely that the matter of Zhou Guiren killing the second prince has been spread in the palace.

Zhou Guiren lost power, and the guards dared to bully themselves.

If it was when Zhou Guiren was favored in the past, which guard would dare to make trouble for himself?

But tonight, there were two guards who came to find trouble for themselves, which shows that Zhou Guiren has fallen out of favor.

The round-faced palace maid's face sank, and she wanted to cry.

Without the protection of Zhou Guiren, she is the master of the murderous harem like a lamb to the slaughter.

Seeing the round-faced palace maid sobbing, the guard snorted coldly: "Huh." It's boring! ”

After complaining, he and his companion left in a huff.

However, he didn't see that before leaving, his companion secretly shook hands with the round-faced palace maid, and in his companion's hand, there was an extra note.

The round-faced palace maid breathed a sigh of relief, glad that she had completed the task assigned by Zhou Guiren.

In the early morning of that night, after the rotation, the guard who took the note handed over his post, but went straight to the outside of the palace, went straight to an inn, ordered a few breakfasts, took out a piece of silver and put it in front of the shopkeeper, and then left quickly.

The whole process is silent, and the act is very secretive.

The shopkeeper put away the money and quietly put away the note under the silver.

In fact, his real identity is a meticulous worker.

Looking around, seeing that there was no one around, he came to the dark place, unfolded the note and looked at it, and was suddenly startled, and hurriedly tied the note to the pigeon's leg and released it.

Through the darkness of the night, carrier pigeons fly straight to a hidden estate.

It's always manned.

An old man received a message from a flying pigeon, and he was so frightened that he just wanted to go out, but suddenly there was a knock at the door.

The old man was startled.

"Who?" The old man asked vigilantly.

"Uninvited, please forgive me, old man, I went out to play, I forgot the way back, I was thirsty and tired, and I just wanted to beg for water."

Soon, a voice came from outside the door.

The voice was a little unfamiliar.

The old man looked out through the crack in the door, but saw a handsome and tall young man standing at the door.

Who is this man?

Because of the weakness of being a thief, the old man was vigilant, frowned and said:

"It's not that the little old man is stingy, Childe, please forgive the little old man for being rude, the water tank at home is empty, there is a stream not far ahead, Childe can get water from the stream, and down the stream is the market."

Soon, a male voice came from outside the door: "Thank you, uncle!" ”

Hearing this, the old man relaxed.

It seems that he is just a passing boy.

However, in the next moment, he only felt dizzy, and then he collapsed to the ground with weakness in all fours.

Just before he could lie down, the door was suddenly pushed open, and the handsome and tall young man walked slowly into the house.

But when he saw the old man lying on the ground, the corners of his lips raised slightly.

The young man asked, "Old man, what's the matter?" Why are you lying on the ground? ”

"You, you're Jia Chen!"

The old man glanced at the young man with difficulty, and was suddenly shocked.

Hearing this, the young man smiled faintly and said, "The old man is really good eyesight. ”

The tone is very flat, but there is an inexplicable majesty.

The old man didn't expect that Jia Chen would suddenly appear here.

How did he know about this point of contact?

It's incredible.

It's scary to think about!

"You! You! ”

The old man's eyes widened, his eyes were full of shock, but he couldn't say a word, he didn't understand why Jia Chen was able to find this place.

Could it be that this Jia Chen knows how to demons?

Jia Chen smiled: "Don't understand? Do you really think you can hide it from my eyes? ”

As a human being in two lives, Jia Chen doesn't know how many books and film and television dramas he has read.

These methods of transmitting information by ancient people are not clever at all, and Jia Chen should not be too simple to track down.

The old man gritted his teeth. "Jia Gongzi, I know that you are both civil and military, and your intelligence is amazing, but you and I have no enmity in the past, and no resentment in the near future, why do you want to provoke me?"

Jia Chen sneered and said to him:

"No hatred in the past? Hum! You are the meticulous work of Zhou Guiren, Zhou Guiren wants to harm our Jia family, can this be regarded as no hatred? ”

As soon as these words came out, the old man was speechless.

After a while, the old man became angry and said:

"Now that you know everything, then you have to kill or chop, listen to it!"

Jia Chen said coldly: "You are just a fine worker, I don't need to kill you, I want to arrest your master." ”

The old man stiffened his neck and said:

"I won't betray my master, you better kill me!"

"It's a hard bone!" Jia Chen snorted and said:

"Come on, arrest him in the Jinyiwei prison and interrogate him severely!"

"Yes!"

More than a dozen brocade guards rushed in from outside the courtyard gate, flipped the old man to the ground, tied him up, and escorted him away.

On the other side, a brocade guard changed into a set of ordinary people's clothes and secretly informed Zhou Guiren of the news of the old man's arrest.

Zhou Guiren was suddenly anxious, if the old man confessed, then she would be completely finished!
