Chapter 172: Let the Dark Guard Peel Peanuts
"Then thank you, Lord Wang." Song Qian said gratefully.
Ji Changye felt very awkward like this, because it seemed that the relationship between them was very estranged. ap.
Seeing that it was almost the third watch, Ji Changye got up and said, "Song Niangzi, go back and rest quickly, I will have people prepare these materials."
Saying that, Ji Changye took the peanuts away with the basin, which made Song Qian have no choice but to go back to rest.
Early the next morning, Changfeng got out of the carriage early, and set off immediately after waiting for Ji Changye to come out.
Just as he was about to go to the study to find Ji Changye, suddenly a dark shadow appeared in front of him in the blink of an eye, and Changfeng said a little angrily, "You scared me to death, why are you still elusive?" This is the secret guard under Ji Changye's hand.
Seeing that he was still holding peanuts in his hands, Changfeng suddenly became vigilant and pulled him to advise in a low voice: "I can tell you, although you are very capable of being elusive, but this people's things can't be taken casually? This is damaging the image of the prince. If you want to eat, come to me, and I will buy it for you, and I will have enough."
Hearing these words, although the expression of the secret guard under the veil did not change, he was still very helpless in his heart, and explained, "Brother Changfeng, you misunderstood. We are all trained by you and the prince, and we will definitely not do anything like stealing chickens and dogs. This peanut is the ...... given to us by the king."
Changfeng breathed a sigh of relief, patted him on the shoulder and said, "The prince gives you peanuts to eat, which means that he attaches importance to you, why are you still unhappy? Okay, go back quickly after eating, the prince is going to prepare to go, and I have to count on you to secretly protect the two princes and Song Niangzi." As he spoke, he stepped forward to Ji Changye's room, but he didn't expect to be stopped by the secret guard again.
"Is there anything else you need?" Changfeng looked at him strangely. I thought that these secret guards were good at everything, but they were like a piece of wood when they got along with others, and they were not happy at all. So he wanted to apply to Ji Changye to exercise the social skills of these secret guards.
The dark guard's tone was as cold as ever, "The prince asked a few of us to go to Song Niangzi's shop to peel peanuts, so we can't secretly protect the two princes and Song Niangzi, but there are other secret guards." His eyes were very serious, which made Changfeng very unbelievable.
"The prince asked you to stay and peel peanuts? How could it be ......" Changfeng suddenly remembered that Song Niangzi had planned to make peanut crisp today, maybe it was because Ji Changye knew about it that she would do so.
Let the top secret guard of the regent of the dignified emperor do the work of peeling peanuts, it is estimated that only Ji Changye can do it.
When the dark guard and Changfeng were talking, they didn't forget to peel the peanuts in their hands, and it could be seen that he was very meticulous about the tasks assigned by Ji Changye.
"Since it was arranged by the prince, then you have to finish it well, and don't make any mistakes. I know about it, go ahead." Although Changfeng didn't expect Ji Changye to do this, he still accepted the reality.
"Yes." As soon as the words fell, the Dark Guard quickly vanished.
Anyway, how can Ji Changye help Song Qian, although doing so will not let Song Qian know his intentions, but it can be regarded as an enlightenment.
Just as Changfeng was about to enter the room, Ji Changye opened the door and walked out, and said strangely, "Who are you talking to?"
"Back to the prince, it was the secret guards who came to say that you had arranged some tasks for them, so they couldn't follow, so they sent a few more secret guards, otherwise it would be misunderstood if they couldn't find them then." Changfeng didn't say anything specific, because he didn't want to pierce Ji Changye's careful thoughts.
Sure enough, when he heard these words, Ji Changye's face became a little unnatural, and he coughed twice and said, "In that case, let's hurry up." Don't delay the hour."
As he spoke, he walked straight to the carriage outside the door.
Changfeng looked at his back and smiled meaningfully, and then followed.
After Song Qian sent the ingots to Wang Niangzi, they officially set off for the temple outside the town.
Because it is winter, the temple located on the mountainside is surrounded by bald trees that have fallen frost, and it is cold
The wind howled, and the branches swayed, making a harsh sound that was very uncomfortable.
Song Qian got out of the carriage, tightened the cloak on his body, and said to Ji Changye, who had not yet gotten off the car, "Lord, the wind outside is not small, let's put on that big coat."
"Okay." Ji Changye listened to Song Qian's words, put on his clothes and got off the carriage.
At the same time, on the steps of the temple on the same mountain, Zhao Liuyin waited here early for Ji Changye's arrival, and was very happy after seeing his carriage, but because of Song Qian's existence, she was jealous.
Hongyin reminded on the side, "Miss, the prince is here."
"I saw it, do you still need to say it?" Zhao Liuyin was angry at Hongyin's body, so frightened that the other party immediately didn't dare to speak, for fear that he would be implicated.
Thinking that he couldn't admit defeat in front of Song Qian, Zhao Liuyin changed into his usual kind appearance and walked down the steps to Ji Changye and them.
"Lord Wang, you're here." Zhao Liuyin directly ignored the others, and said happily in front of Ji Changye.
However, Ji Changye's face was very indifferent, "Well, I really didn't expect Miss Zhao to be here."
Zhao Liuyin reacted quickly and hurriedly explained: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also sent an invitation to the courtiers, and besides, the prince will also come here, so how could the courtiers not come?" Her eyes stayed on Ji Changye's body, very expressional.
Song Qian and Changfeng were a little embarrassed to stand beside them, and Changfeng was dissatisfied with Zhao Liuyin's pestering Ji Changye as soon as he came, so he coughed twice in a reminder style, which really attracted Zhao Liuyin's idea.
However, Zhao Liuyin didn't care about Changfeng, but looked at Song Qian and pretended to be surprised and said, "Song Niangzi, you are actually here too, I'm really sorry I didn't see you just now." This made Zhao Liuyin very happy, because Song Qian came to them to implement the plan.
Obviously, she passed by her just now, how could she not find out that she existed?
Song Qian smiled perfunctorily and coped, "I have nothing to do recently, and I haven't bullied the temple yet, so I accompanied the prince." The main thing is to see what tricks they are playing.
Zhao Liuyin didn't want to waste time on Song Qian, so he nodded, then put his eyes on Ji Changye, and said to them, "Let's go up quickly, it's easy to get wind here." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived and is waiting at the temple."
Thinking of this stubble, Zhao Liuyin inevitably became a little worried, after all, she deceived two people, what if they met and were exposed.
So suddenly she stopped and said to the three people behind her, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was a little uncomfortable when he first wanted to come, so don't disturb him. The courtier took the prince to the back meditation room to rest and rest, how about it?"
Ji Changye's eyes were unclear, which made Zhao Liuyin feel a little weak.
"No need, since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not feeling well, this king has to go and see it, and he can't be guilty of disrespect, right?"
As soon as these words came out, Zhao Liuyin panicked, but now he can't stop anything in order not to expose it, otherwise it will arouse suspicion.
Song Qian saw her careful thoughts, but she didn't say anything, but glanced at Ji Changye in tacit understanding.
At this moment, He Yujin's voice suddenly came from behind him: "I didn't say it, you set off so early, why are you still here?"
He Yujin originally wanted to come with them, but because Gu Yuan had something to do with him from the imperial capital, he came alone in a carriage.
Seeing He Yujin here, Zhao Liuyin's face was even more difficult to look at, because she was worried that He Yujin would make trouble here.
The other party also noticed her, and had a bad idea in his heart, so he deliberately said, "Why is Miss Zhao here? Did the prince also ask Hongyin to give you the invitation? This king seems to remember that the prince's subordinates are called Rongmen, when did they change their names to Hongyin?" As she spoke, she also looked at Hongyin beside her.
Hongyin immediately lowered her head with a weak heart, Zhao Liuyin secretly glared at her dissatisfied, and then explained: "Lord Jin laughed, that day it was the courtiers who discussed things in the palace of His Royal Highness the Prince, and it happened that the people under His Royal Highness the Crown Prince went out to do business, so
The courtier asked Hongyin to help send an invitation to the prince. I didn't expect to cause a misunderstanding, I hope the prince won't blame him."
"This king didn't misunderstand anything, Miss Zhao is probably thinking too much." He Yujin joked, and then went straight around their master and servant and walked towards the mountain with Ji Changye and Song Qian.
Looking at their distant backs, Zhao Liuyin finally stopped hiding the anger in his heart, looked at it and asked, "Didn't you say that Prince Jin wouldn't come? Why is he here now? What about our plans?" After saying that, he pinched her several times.
Hongyin suddenly burst into tears in pain, and explained with a sob: "Miss, the slave maid did hear that the prince of Jin said that he didn't want to come, this must be the prince of Jin who changed his mind later, not the slave's fault."
Zhao Liuyin was afraid that her crying would arouse suspicion, and then shouted, "Okay, don't cry, what if others hear it? Now hurry up and find a way to get rid of the prince of Jin, if this matter is complicated again, I just ask, do you know?"
Hongyin timidly put away the grievances in her heart, and hurriedly responded, and then hurriedly caught up with Ji Changye and Song Qian with Zhao Liuyin.
"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, this regent invited you here, but you can't say it if you don't show up." Rong said.
At this time, Ji Qirui was also full of anger, "This Ji Changye doesn't take this prince seriously, and he dares to snub this prince. When Prince Ben sees him, he must be made clear about his dignity and order."
The next moment his words fell, Ji Changye stepped over the threshold and appeared here, which suddenly reduced Ji Qirui's arrogance by more than half.
"What's wrong with His Royal Highness the Prince, I heard His Royal Highness the Prince's voice not far away just now, did something happen?" Ji Changye asked.
And Ji Qirui did not allow the majesty they expected, but pretended to be calm and said, "It's nothing, I just think that this place is very pure and can cultivate the body and mind."
Rong sighed secretly, thinking about when Ji Qirui would be able to harden up and take out the majesty of the prince.
Ji Changye nodded thoughtfully, and the three distinguished people took the lead in taking a seat, and then Ji Changye asked Changfeng to bring a chair to Song Qian: "Song Niangzi is tired all the way, sit down and rest."
"The folk girl thanked the prince." Song Qian deliberately sat behind Ji Changye, which was an inconspicuous position, because he didn't want to face Ji Qirui.
"The prince invited this prince to come and pray for the imperial grandmother this time, and he really worked hard, if the imperial grandmother knew about this matter, she would definitely be moved."
Hearing Ji Qirui's words, Ji Changye and Song Qian immediately understood what Zhao Liuyin's plan was.
