Chapter 2: Escape from Death
I saw a slender figure dressed in red, with a soft figure and an official hat, stepping in under the candlelight.
The candlelight reflected the delicate face, about sixteen or seventeen years old.
Ye Cheng was shocked, isn't this just a high school girl?
Why are the eyes so cold, and the tone is a bit murderous.
Suddenly, Ye Cheng's back felt a chill and he felt a fatal fear.
Because a memory popped up in his mind.
This girl seems to be Shangguan Feiyan, a fourth-grade female official of the prince's mansion, and she is a celebrity in front of the prince.
I heard that she was murderous like hemp, and she often punished the palace maids and eunuchs, and everyone was in awe in the prince's mansion.
"This delicate girl seems to be a living Hades." Ye Cheng felt bitter in his heart.
Really.
Shangguan Feiyan stared at Ye Cheng, pursed the corners of her thin lips and sneered, "Prince, others don't know him, I don't know him yet?" He entered the Prince's Mansion with me. How could he be the Queen's eyeliner? ”
"Dog minion, you actually deceived this king! I think you're getting impatient! ”
Ling Xiaoyue's willow eyebrows were upside down, and there was a cold killing intent flowing in those phoenix eyes.
This dog slave is so daring!
She hated people for cheating on her the most.
Ye Cheng's identity was revealed, but his face did not change.
He knew that the more panicked he was, the faster he would die.
"Your Highness, Shangguan Feiyan entered the palace with me, but does she know anything about what happened before I entered the palace?"
Ye Cheng smiled calmly.
In fact, he panicked.
When Shangguan Feiyan heard this, she twisted her eyebrows and said, "I don't know." ”
After all, Ye Cheng has been in the palace for two years, and he has not been as happy as he is, he is just a little eunuch at the bottom, who will pay attention to him?
"That's not it. I'm actually the Queen's undercover agent. Don't you think it's strange that I took the crown prince's palm just now and didn't die? ”
Ye Cheng asked rhetorically.
The two glanced at each other, and sure enough, they noticed that something was unusual.
Ling Xiaoyue frowned slightly, and said softly: "This is indeed very strange, with the strength of this king's eight-rank martial honor, with you, an ordinary little eunuch, how can you withstand the power of this king's palm?" ”
"Actually, the villain has practiced martial arts, and now he is a second-grade martial artist, which was taught by the queen's mother. The purpose of the queen sending me here is just to protect the crown prince, and now His Majesty's dragon health is not safe, and there are many people in the court with ill intentions. ”
Ye Cheng continued.
"You are just a little eunuch, how do you know that Your Majesty's dragon body is not safe?"
Ling Xiaoyue was shocked in her heart, and her eyes couldn't help but widen.
"This matter is a secret in the palace, and few ministers in the court and the central government know about it, but he, a little eunuch, actually knows, could it be that he is really the queen's person?"
Even the ruthless Shangguan Feiyan was shaken, gritting her tiny little silver teeth.
Ye Cheng was overjoyed, it seemed that he was really right.
He continued: "This is naturally told by the queen mother. Otherwise, how can I, as a little eunuch who is not in the stream, know? ”
"It seems that he is really the queen's person."
Ling Xiaoyue also began to believe Ye Cheng's words, after all, it was impossible for a little eunuch with no rank to know about such a thing.
"But there is still something suspicious about him, what if he reveals His Highness's identity?"
Shangguan Feiyan's delicate face still carried some murderous intent.
Ye Cheng hurriedly said: "The villain will never reveal half a point to the queen, this matter will shake my Great Zhou Guoben, in case others know, then my Great Zhou is also in danger!" ”
"I can't see that you, this little eunuch, are so loyal to my Da Zhou, spare you this time, and don't allow a next time, if this king hears some rumors outside, be careful that your head falls to the ground."
Ling Xiaoyue waved her slender hand and decided to let Ye Cheng go.
Walking out of the palace, Ye Cheng's back was already soaked, just like walking away from the ghost gate.
"It's so thrilling that I almost died at the hands of that female devil."
Ye Cheng wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and couldn't help but feel afraid.
He can know that the dragon body of the Great Zhou Tianzi is not safe, and it is related to the owner of this body.
Just now, in a hurry, he remembered the past.
It turned out that the owner of this body was the prince of the previous dynasty, and two years ago, he accidentally learned of the illness of the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, so he pretended to be a eunuch and infiltrated the prince's mansion in the East Palace, intending to assassinate the prince.
When today's son, there is only one heir of the prince, and when the prince is assassinated, once the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty dies, there will be no one to inherit the Great Zhou Dynasty, and it will definitely fall into civil strife and strife, and the previous dynasty will have a chance to restore the country.
Who knew that this guy had an upright personality and would not stammer, and he did not mix well in the prince's mansion, and in the past two years, he has never had the opportunity to contact the prince, and he has not found a chance.
Moreover, this guy has a low level of martial arts, and he is only a second-grade martial artist.
A few days ago, this guy angered the chief eunuch of the Prince's Mansion, Mr. Li, and was beaten with fifty strokes by Mr. Li.
Ye Cheng was about to go back to his room to sleep, when suddenly the prince walked over quickly, still holding a set of official uniforms and a stack of silver tickets in his hand, and said with a smile:
"Congratulations to Father-in-law Ye, just now the prince made an order, and you will be promoted to be the seven-rank foreman. This is an official uniform and five hundred taels of silver tickets, and you don't thank the prince for the reward? ”
Ye Cheng was stunned when he heard this, this fake prince suddenly sealed himself as an official, could it be that he wanted to block Lao Tzu's mouth?
Is this considered to be a breakthrough?
"Thank you for the reward."
Ye Cheng knelt down and saluted.
"Xiao Chengzi, it's not simple, just after serving the prince once, he was rewarded by the prince, and the future is immeasurable."
The prince praised.
"This is thanks to the cultivation of the prince."
Ye Cheng grinned, took out a stack of silver tickets and stuffed them into the hands of the prince.
The prince's eyes widened, this is not to mention three hundred taels, this little Chengzi has changed his temperament?
In the past, this kid was an iron rooster, but now he has opened his mind? Is it so generous?
"Princess, thank you for your cultivation." Ye Cheng said with a smile.
Don't look at the prince's grade, he is only a six-grade general class, but he is an old man in the prince's mansion and has a wide range of contacts.
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say." The princess nodded with a smile.
After sending the prince away, Ye Cheng returned to the room and continued to sort out his thoughts and make plans for the future.
At the moment, this restoration is definitely impossible.
Even if the prince is assassinated, how can he escape from this prince's mansion?
What's more, with his strength, how could he assassinate that female demon?
She is an eight-rank martial artist, and in this martial arts world, she is already a top master.
Ye Cheng couldn't figure it out, how did this female devil cultivate? The strength is so high!
Ye Cheng decided to save his life in this Longtan tiger's den, and then he took a wrong step, and his head would fall to the ground.
As soon as he fell asleep, a cold voice suddenly came from Ye Cheng's ears, "Still sleeping?" The crown princess summoned you, why don't you come with me soon? ”
Ye Cheng opened his eyes and saw a woman with a cold face standing in front of the bed, white as jade in the moonlight.
"The crown princess summoned me? What's going on? ”
Ye Cheng's heart couldn't help but be full of doubts.
