Chapter 136: Upheaval in the East Palace
Within ten days, Pei Wuyi and Yu Qingfeng went to the East Palace three times and were turned away three times. They didn't even see the prince's henchman, the prince.
Pei Wuxian asserted that something must have happened to Qi Jinglin.
Yu Qingfeng asked rhetorically: "Are you so sure?" Can't it be that the prince is still angry with you? You're too confident in your relationship, aren't you? ”
Pei Wuxian replied as he went out: "That's how confident." ”
Yu Qingfeng quickened his pace to keep up.
Pei Wuxian was improvised early in the morning, and he had already changed into his official uniform, but Yu Qingfeng was still dressed at home. I thought of asking Pei Wuyi to wait for her to go back and change into official clothes, but after thinking about it, civilian clothes also have the benefits of civilian clothes.
But she still asked Pei Wuyi to wait for her for a while, and the official uniform had to be brought.
Yu Qingfeng deliberately asked the groom to park the carriage at a distance from the East Palace, get out of the carriage alone in civilian clothes, and wander at the gate of the East Palace.
These days, the guards at the gate of the East Palace only know that there is a female official in Dali Temple, who is the future side lady of Dali Temple, and she follows Pei Wuyi into the palace together. Since it was a woman from Dali Temple, they didn't dare to stare at their faces carefully, and they bowed their heads every time.
Yu Qingfeng was worried about whether she would be recognized, but fortunately, people relied on clothes and horses to support saddles, and none of the guards recognized her.
"Who dares to trespass on the East Palace!" The guards shouted fiercely at Yu Qingfeng from afar, and raised their sabers.
Alas, the status is different, and the treatment is very different. When the feeling of civilians has been lost for a long time, it is still so bad.
"Brother Guard, I'm here to look for relatives, my cousin is on an errand in the East Palace, her name is Cheng Minrong, and she is a celebrity next to His Royal Highness the Prince. Brother Lao gave a report. Yu Qingfeng lowered her head, for fear of being recognized.
Yu Qingfeng expected that the people in the East Palace should all listen to Cheng Minrong's name, just like everyone in Dali Temple knew her Yu Qingfeng. Despite this, for the sake of insurance, Yu Qingfeng still took out the broken silver, intending to dot it,
On weekdays, the prince who is not close to women is a servant girl who is the only favorite, and it is strange that this kind of thing can't be spread. Since he is a relative of the big celebrity Cheng Minrong, Yu Qingfeng expects that the guards will not be too embarrassed, and maybe they can really find someone to talk to.
"What's Cheng Minrong? Hurry up, this is not the place you should be. The guards looked at each other, obviously stunned for a moment, and from the rear, a man who seemed to have the highest position unceremoniously sent Yu Qingfeng away.
"How could it not be? I've been here before, and Min Rong brought me in, and I've also met His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and His Royal Highness ...... to Min Rong."
The guard pushed Yu Qingfeng, "Nonsense! ”
Yu Qingfeng almost fell, and after standing firmly, she wanted to continue to step forward and ask.
At the very edge, one of the youngest guards shook his head at Yu Qingfeng's eyes.
Yu Qingfeng found a breakthrough, so he stepped aside, found a corner to avoid people, and waited for the young guard to take the initiative to come over.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for the young guard to come to the corner where Yu Qingfeng was, sneakily, and it could be seen that he should have secretly run here under the pretext of going to the thatched house.
As soon as the guards saw Yu Qingfeng, they stared at Yu Qingfeng's purse as if they had just made eye contact with her.
Yu Qingfeng hurriedly gave him the broken silver that he had just prepared to take care of the guards, "Little brother, my cousin Cheng Minrong, do you recognize it?" ”
The little guard put away the broken silver, "Yes." Before, His Royal Highness always took her with him when he went out of the palace to play. I've seen it. ”
"I want to see her, please go and talk to her."
The little guard was still staring at Yu Qingfeng's purse.
Well, young people who have just joined the work are short of money, Yu Qingfeng understands!
Yu Qingfeng took out another piece of broken silver and gave it to him.
"I can't pass the word, Cheng Minrong is not in the East Palace now."
"How so? Where did it go? ”
The little guard still didn't speak.
Yu Qingfeng rolled her eyes, who can stand squeezing toothpaste like this? She directly took out a tael of silver, "Give me a happy word." ”
The little guard didn't have much time, and when he saw that Qian was open, he immediately said with an astonishing speed: "A month ago, His Royal Highness entertained the envoys of the Great Britain Kingdom and gave Cheng Minrong to the envoys as concubines, and before the twentieth day, Cheng Minrong returned to the Great Britain Kingdom with the envoys. ”
"Impossible!" Yu Qingfeng shouted in surprise and took back the silver taels, unwilling to give the real money to a crook who made up nonsense.
The little guard saw that the cooked duck could still make it fly? If you come up, you will rob it, "What I said is true!" Bring it to you. ”
Where did Yu Qingfeng grab the guards, and he lost the silver taels in an instant.
The guard took the money, turned around and left.
Yu Qingfeng still wanted to chase, but heard Pei Wuyi's voice behind him.
"Forget it, give it to him."
Yu Qingfeng turned around and saw Pei Wunuan, a warm heart, Pei Wunuan must have been hiding by her side to protect secretly.
"How much do I have a month, why should I ......give it to a liar," Yu Qingfeng secretly complained to the boss about the low salary.
Pei Wuyi took Yu Qingfeng's hand and pulled her to the direction of the carriage, "In the future, my monthly salary will be yours, take a long-term view." ”
Yu Qingfeng pursed her lips and snickered, and obediently followed Pei Wuyi.
In front of the carriage, Pei Wuxian asked Yu Qingfeng to go up first and change into the official uniform he brought.
Yu Qingfeng changed the official mansion in the carriage alone, and then beckoned Pei Wuyi to get into the car.
"You heard that, right? Qi Jinglin gave Cheng Minrong to the envoys of the Great Britain Kingdom, how is this possible? Yu Qingfeng waved his hand again and again.
"Someone must have made a false will. I said a long time ago, the prince must have had an accident, he hasn't seen me for so long, and he is under house arrest, along with the prince. Pei Wuxian opened the window and looked around to make sure that no one was eavesdropping, "The other party uses Cheng Minrong as a threat, which is enough to make the prince a puppet." Today, no matter what, I have to meet the prince. ”
"House arrest? Gao Manpeng? The details of the East Palace have learned that we have found out that the master behind the scenes is him? But even so, daring to directly put the prince under house arrest, Gao Manpeng is too bold, right? ”
Pei Wuyi's eyebrows were deeply locked, "Maybe it's Gao Manpeng, maybe it's ...... It's a national teacher. ”
"National teacher, Dongfang Cao?" Yu Qingfeng realized that the villain on this side of the S+ ancient puppet plot is the national teacher Dongfang Cao.
It is not only her Yu Qingfeng who is stringing dramas, but also Qi Jinglin, who is obviously the male protagonist here, and also plays a supporting role over there.
Pei Wuyi is obviously the actor over there, but he has to be a supporting role here.
After the plots of the two dramas intersected, they all became off track, and everything became uncontrollable. Pei Wuyi will definitely not be beautiful alone on the side of the B-level small web drama and stand by and watch.
"Who dares to put the prince under house arrest, just try it." Pei Wuyi was thoughtful and looked solemn.
When he arrived at the gate of the East Palace, Pei Wuxian personally got out of the car and talked to the head of the guards.
"This official has something important to tell His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in person, please report it."
"Master Pei, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has an order, I don't see you."
"Your Royal Highness didn't see me because of Princess Pingyao's matter, and my request to see me this time is precisely because of Princess Pingyao's matter, and the case has other inside information, so I must report it in person. Even if you report it, if this reason is still missing," Pei Wuyi raised his eyebrows and smiled, and said playfully, "It doesn't make sense." The prince is abnormal, it is a major event that shakes the foundation of the country, and the official can only go to face the saint. ”
The chief guard nodded with a dry smile, asked Pei Wuyi to wait a while, and trotted to report.
After a short time, the chief guard personally greeted him and led the carriage into the East Palace, but only if he opened the door of the carriage and let him see if there were any others in the carriage.
"Inside the car is Dali Temple Si Zhiyu Qingfeng." Pei Wuxian motioned to the guards of Dali Temple to open the car door.
Yu Qingfeng didn't get out of the car, kept a distance from the guards and appeared, and it was a hasty appearance.
All the guards hurriedly lowered their heads when they saw Yu Qingfeng's outfit, only the little guard who had just been spotted by Yu Qingfeng saw her appearance clearly, and his face turned pale with fright.
Since only the little guards were watching her, it would be easy to do. Yu Qingfeng lightly hooked his little finger and took out another ingot of silver.
Pei Wuxian squinted at Yu Qingfeng, and after getting into the carriage, he complained in a low voice: "Although...... But ......"
Yu Qingfeng snickered, knowing that Pei Wuyi was dissatisfied with the way she had just "hooked up" with the little guard, thinking about it, it was silver, eyes and fingers, and it was indeed a little frivolous.
The carriage went all the way to the prince's bedchamber.
At the door of the dormitory, there was a strange father-in-law, who called himself Father-in-law Dai Dedai, who was the current chief eunuch of the East Palace.
"Where's the princess?" Yu Qingfeng's mouth was fast, and after listening to Dai's father-in-law's self-introduction, he asked.
"The prince died of illness, His Royal Highness was sad, and the matter of Princess Pingyao was in a hurry, and he fell ill. The imperial doctor diagnosed that it was a fainting and weak disease caused by qi stagnation and blood stasis, although there was no major problem, but it needed to be recuperated. Grandpa Dai replied slowly.
"Death?" Yu Qingfeng didn't care about Qi Jinglin's illness, but the death of the prince, "The princess has always been healthy, how could he die of illness?" ”
Father-in-law Dai shook off the dust, "Yu Si's words are wrong, everyone knows that the prince has a cough and a stubborn disease." Half a month ago, the prince's cough worsened, vomited blood all day long, and died. ”
"The prince is His Royal Highness's confidant, and His Royal Highness must have invited the Tai Hospital to come for treatment. I don't know, which doctor was invited? Pei Wuyi asked.
"Oh, this miscellaneous family is not clear, the miscellaneous family was sent to the East Palace by the celebrant after the death of the prince."
"Master of Ceremonies." Yu Qingfeng repeated to Pei Wuyi, meaning that the person who put the prince under house arrest is likely to be Gao Manpeng.
Yu Qingfeng knew that it was nonsense, but she still wanted to distinguish between one and the other, "But I remember that the prince said that although his cough is a stubborn disease, it is not a big problem." Coughing up blood, I've never seen it. ”
Father-in-law Dai casually greeted a passing palace maid, "Cuiya, you should have seen the princess get sick, tell the two adults." ”
This palace maid named Cuiya Yu Qingfeng was a little impressed, and she was indeed a servant girl waiting for the prince, so she waited for her description.
Cuiya's face was full of horror, as if she remembered something very terrifying, and as if the situation she was facing was a very terrible thing. The acting skills can't be said to be not passable, but they still passed, anyway, it is clear that they are lying under threat.
"Alas, yes, one day the slave and maid saw that the prince was coughing violently, and covered her mouth with a handkerchief, and when she looked again, the handkerchief was full of blood. Alas, at that time, the prince was also too frightened to believe it......"
"Handkerchiefs? White? Yu Qingfeng interrupted Cuiya.
Cui Ya was stunned for a moment, "Yes, white, is there anything wrong with the handkerchief?" ”
"No, white is right."
Yu Qingfeng used a white handkerchief to confirm that Cuiya was lying, and someone coerced her to hide the truth.
The scene of meeting Wang Gonggong for the first time, Yu Qingfeng still remembers it vividly. At that time, Yu Qingfeng instructed the prince not to cover his mouth with a handkerchief when coughing, especially the white handkerchief.
Although the princess didn't know why, when they met in the future, the princess also specially mentioned it to her, remembering Yu Qingfeng's original instructions, not to cover her mouth with a handkerchief when coughing, and to carry a cyan handkerchief with her. Wang Gonggong said that Yu Qingfeng was on the rise, and he must be a lucky star, he followed her advice and changed the blue handkerchief, because he wanted to touch Yu Qingfeng's blessing and please him.
Dai Gonggong entered the door.
Yu Qingfeng and Pei Wuyi stood outside the door of the dormitory and waited, looking at each other, tacitly: the East Palace has changed drastically, Qi Jinglin is sick, the prince is dead, and Cheng Minrong is married to the Great Britain Kingdom.
