Chapter 33: Secret Mission
"The emperor's condition is getting worse and worse, and his body is getting weaker and weaker, I'm afraid it's ......"
Traceless glanced at Xiao Yan and didn't dare to continue.
Xiao Yan's brows furrowed even tighter, "What did the Imperial Doctor say?" ”
"The Imperial Doctor still said the same things as before."
Seeing Xiao Yan's difficulty, Wuxian couldn't help but add: "Do you want the princess to try?" ”
"No way!"
It's hard to say who Luo Yao is, and she can't be allowed to get close to the emperor.
Recognize his attitude, and dare not say anything more without a trace.
"What's been going on with the princes lately?" Xiao Yan asked.
"The eldest prince will sneak out of the palace every day, looking for food in major restaurants and inns; The second prince is a frequent visitor to the tavern, drunk and dreaming all day long; The three princes stayed in the land of fireworks night and night, and were punished many times by Concubine Zhou, and they had no intention of restraint; The four princes are still mixed in the major gambling houses in Pingdu. ”
Seeing that Xiao Yan's face was getting darker and darker, the traceless voice was getting smaller and smaller.
The four princes were very motivated before, and the emperor was quite satisfied with them, but after learning that the emperor intended to pass on the throne to Xiao Yan, they became like this.
On the surface, he has no intention of taking the throne and supports any decision of the emperor, which is a waste wood that cannot become a climate, but behind the scenes, he has assassinated Xiao Yan several times, and has not left any evidence.
These four people are so deep that people can't grasp them.
"Keep getting people to stare at them." Xiao Yan said.
"Yes."
"You stand down first!"
"The subordinates retired."
After leaving without a trace, Xiao Yan sat alone in the study and fell into deep thought.
He refused the emperor's offer to ascend the throne, but took over the secret task given by the emperor to select a qualified successor from several princes.
While he wanted to find out who was calculating himself, he was also paying attention to and inspecting several princes.
Because Luo Yao failed to take care of the Queen Mother's reward, the bag naturally fell into Xiao Yan's hands, and Luo Yao didn't bother to come back these hot potatoes.
If she loses it again, she can't stand it.
After these few incidents, the entire people up and down the palace knew that the princess was not easy to mess with, and in order not to cause unnecessary trouble to themselves, the people tried to avoid the abandoned courtyard.
No one came to bother herself, Luo Yao was able to calm down and nourish her body, and after drinking medicine for a few days, most of her body healed, but her internal strength never recovered.
There is no choice but to go with the flow.
On this day, Luo Yao sat in the room bored, thinking that the silver sent by Shu Qing should have fallen into Xiao Yan's hands.
Damn it!
She wanted to save some money, why was it so difficult?
has no money, and is trapped here as a princess, she can only sigh that her luck is not good.
Xiangxue entered the door, saw her sighing, and walked straight to her, "What's wrong with Miss?" ”
"What do you say?"
Liu Yinyin's house has ice cubes to cool off, she has nothing here, it is so hot that it smokes day and night, and she can't go out to breathe.
Is she still in a good mood?
Xiangxue brought a fan and fanned her side, "Miss, don't sigh, the slave fan for you, you can also be more comfortable." ”
"It's hot air that comes out of the house, don't fan it."
After the incident with Mama Xu, the guards in the mansion were much stricter, and it was even more difficult to get in and out of the palace.
No way!
She had to find a way to get out, what should she do?
Xiangxue put away the fan and was completely out of line.
Luo Yao stood up suddenly, her eyes lit up and asked, "Where is the little wooden box?" ”
"The slave is in the closet."
"Find it out."
Xiangxue looked puzzled, "What do you want the small wooden box for?" ”
"With the little wooden box, we can get out of the house."
Xiangxue hurriedly found out the small wooden box, and Luo Yao took the small wooden box and went to find Xiao Yan.
As soon as she came to the backyard, she saw Xiao Yan walking out in a hurry with no trace, and she immediately chased after her.
"Wait."
Xiao Yan's face was anxious, and he looked impatiently at Luo Yao, who suddenly blocked the way, "Why are you here?" ”
She patted the small wooden box in her arms, "The prince forgot what he promised me?" ”
He frowned in displeasure, "This king has something important now, and he will take you to pick the lock another day." ”
When the words fell, he took a step and was about to move forward, but Luo Yao stopped him again.
Xiao Yan's brows furrowed even tighter, and he said with a dark face: "Get out of the way!" ”
"The prince gave me the address, and I just took the small wooden box to pick the lock."
He couldn't have let her go out alone, out of his sight.
After thinking for a moment, he turned his head to Wuji behind him and said, "You take her to unlock the lock, and go back to the house immediately after unlocking the lock, and you can't delay for a moment." ”
"Subordinates obey."
He looked at Luo Yao with a warning look, "Pick the lock, open the lock, don't have other thoughts." ”
"I ......"
Before Luo Yao's words were finished, Xiao Yan walked away quickly.
She looked at Xiao Yan's figure getting farther and farther away, and muttered dissatisfiedly: "Every time, let me not have other thoughts, what can I think?" ”
During the time he came to leave the palace, it was the first time he saw Xiao Yan in such a hurry, what was he going to do?
She asked without a trace with a curious expression, "What are you princes going to do?" ”
"My subordinates don't know."
Luo Yao didn't believe him, "You follow him all day long, can you not know where he goes?" ”
"My subordinates really don't know."
She waved her hand nonchalantly, "Forget it, let's go!" ”
"Yes." Traceless Road.
She followed without a trace out of the palace, and soon came to a magnificent mansion.
Looking up, on the plaque in the center of the gate of the house, there are two big gilded characters - Chu Mansion.
She turned her head suspiciously and asked without a trace, "This is the locksmith that your prince said?" ”
"Hmm."
"This locksmith is so powerful, can he buy such a big house?"
Without a trace explained seriously, "The house was bought by the grandson of the old man Chu, and the grandson of the old man is Chu Lin, the richest man in our west." ”
Chu Lin?
The name seems a little familiar, as if it has been heard somewhere.
He is the richest man, and it is normal to hear it, but she didn't think much about it.
Without a Trace led her up and knocked on the door, and as soon as he did, the door opened, and the porter looked respectfully at them.
"Who are the two?"
"We are people who have left the palace, it is my prince who asked us to come to find the old man Chu, we have already come to send a message a few days ago, and we are tired of spreading it." Traceless politely.
"Two later."
"Hmm."
The porter passed through the door, and in a moment the door opened, and the porter respectfully welcomed the two into the door and led them to the antechamber.
"Later, our old man will be here soon."
Luo Yao bowed his head and said, "I'm tired." ”
The porter retreated, and Luo Yao and Wuxian were left in the hall.
The hall is carved with beams and painted columns, resplendent gold, and there are also valuable porcelain, which is worthy of being the mansion of the richest man, and there is a sense of wealth and compelling people everywhere.
Luo Yao couldn't help but pace in the hall, and stood at the door to look at the courtyard.
It is not inferior to the palace at all, and it is even more magnificent than the palace, and it is worthy of being the richest man with deep pockets.
Just as she was guessing how much property the richest man had, a familiar voice came from the side.
"Luo Yao, it's really you!"
