Chapter 126: Good Times
Shuyu called Xiangling, who was guarding the courtyard, in, and brought it to Qingchen, so he stood beside Qingchen and stopped making a sound.
Xiangling stood in front of Qingchen, glanced at her timidly, bowed and saluted, and then spoke: "I don't know what the princess summoned the slave maid, what is the so-called matter?"
"Bengu asks you, when did you stay guarding outside the courtyard?" Qingchen asked.
"The slave and maid are guarding the courtyard at three o'clock. Xiangling listened to Qingchen's words, and answered truthfully.
"So, Red Silk didn't want to exchange with you at the beginning, but after guarding the courtyard here for a while, she said that she was uncomfortable and asked you to replace her?" Qingchen asked as soon as he heard the time.
"Back to the princess, yes, the princess went out at the end of the day, and then Miss Huaijin came in to clean up, and left almost at the end of the day. Red Silk was on time in the yard, but it didn't take long for her to come to the slave and maid, saying that she was not feeling well, and asked the slave and maid to keep vigil for her. Xiangling nodded and replied, "The slave maid looked at the red silk and looked very bad, so she agreed. ”
"Alright, you go down. After listening to Xiangling's words, Qingchen commanded.
Xiangling nodded, left in response and continued to return to the courtyard.
After Xiangling walked away, Xiao Yi, who had already heard everything about it, asked, "Do you suspect that Hongsilk took your hairpin?"
"Not a doubt, it's a certainty. Qingchen said, "I, who have different intentions in Luluoju, are almost clear, except for the prince who Tingyuxuan brought over to do chores outside, and she is her." ”
"Listen to what you mean, this girl called red silk doesn't seem to be as simple as stealing hairpins?" Xiao Yi was stunned for a moment and asked.
"The prince didn't know that Sister Huai Jin once found the chronic poison of drunken sleep on the princess's bed curtain, which was smoked little by little by someone while the princess was not in the house, the purpose was to let the princess be poisoned unknowingly in her sleep. Later, we quietly changed the bed curtain, and found out that the person who poisoned the princess was red silk. Grip Yu explained.
"Sleep when you're drunk?" Xiao Yi was startled, then took Qingchen's hand, looked up and down, and asked, "Are you okay?"
"The prince doesn't have to worry, fortunately, Huai Jin knows how to heal, and he found it early, so there is no major problem. Qingchen gave Xiao Yi a relieved smile, and then said, "But this red silk has not moved for so long, and there must be something wrong with suddenly taking away my hairpin today." ”
"Today?" Xiao Yi seemed to have some kind of image flashing in his mind, but he didn't have time to capture it.
"No matter what the purpose of Red Silk is in doing this, and no matter who the master behind her is, she will definitely make a move tonight. Qingchen's eyes were misty, the clues in his mind flashed one by one, and he suddenly opened his mouth to assert.
"How so?"
"If it weren't for Jinyan's good memory, Fang just discovered that something was wrong, then this hibiscus hairpin would have been found when I was dressing up tomorrow morning. The hairpin is a relic of my mother, it is very important to me, I will definitely order a thorough investigation, Luluo Ju is such a big place, if it is searched next to each other, it will definitely be able to be found, so the red silk can only send this hairpin out tonight. Qingchen said.
"Hold Yu, you go and call Xiangling just now in, you change her clothes and quietly go back to the house, see if Hongsilk will go out in the middle of the night and meet someone. Hearing this, Xiao Yi thought about it, and said to Zhan Yu.
"Yes, slave and maid will go. As he spoke, he went out again and called Xiangling in, and the two changed their clothes, so Zhanyu pretended to be Xiangling and went to Xiangling's house.
The house where Xiangling and Hongsu live is next to each other, and they are all Luluo's rooms in the backyard, which are much smaller than Huai Jin's rooms, and the furnishings in the house are also much simpler. Zhiyu quietly arrived at Xiangling's room, and did not dare to slack off at all, listening to the movement next door.
It didn't take long for him to hear a soft footstep from next door, passing by the door of Xiangling's room. Holding Yu waited for the red silk to go a little farther, then opened the door and quietly followed behind the red silk, watching the red silk walk to the back door of the palace, and then learned three bird calls, and a man in black jumped in from outside the wall of the palace and landed lightly.
"Where's the thing?" the man asked, his voice hoarse, and it seemed to be a man.
Red silk took something from his bosom and handed it to the man in black, and in the moonlight, Ji Yu clearly saw that something flashed with a trace of fluorescence, it was a jade carved hibiscus flower, glowing white in the moonlight.
Zhiyu kept seeing the man in black leave, and Red Silk turned around and walked back, only then dodged and hid behind a big tree not far away, and waited for Red Silk to return to the room, before quietly walking out and going to Qingchen's bedroom.
"The princess was right, and she guessed wrong. After Ji Yu entered the house, he said this, and under Qingchen's instructions, He Xiangling changed his clothes again.
Xiangling was a little baffled by Qingchen's actions, she didn't know what was going on, looking at Qingchen's face with a strange coldness, she didn't even have the courage to speak.
"Jinyan, you take Xiangling down, she will live with you for the past few days, you look at her, remember not to leak any rumors. Qingchen commanded towards Jin Yan.
"The slave obeys. Jin Yan knew that Zhu Yu was going to tell Mu Qingchen what he had discovered, so he didn't stay long, and left Qingchen's bedroom with Xiangling directly.
"There are people waiting in the alley behind the palace, and Red Silk has already handed over the things to him. Seeing Xiangling leaving, Zhan Yu opened his mouth to speak, and told Qingchen what he had just seen, and finally said, "If it hadn't been for following the princess for a long time and knowing that she couldn't startle the snake, the slave would have snatched the hairpin back." ”
"Well done, the person behind the red silk has not yet appeared, and premature exposure is not good for us. Qingchen nodded and said.
"It seems that the princess has already thought of a way. Xiao Yi saw Qingchen's calm appearance, and his heart also let go, and said.
"Isn't the prince the same? Why bother asking me. Qingchen shook his head with a smile and said.
"It's not as smart as the princess, and there is a way to deal with it in an instant. Xiao Yi's expression of self-shame made Qingchen cry and laugh.
"The prince and the princess have more and more tacit understanding, and even think of ways at the same time, I don't know if the prince and the princess think of the same?"
When Xiao Yi heard this, he and Qingchen glanced at each other, as if they saw something in each other's eyes, and then spoke at the same time: "Brake quietly." ”
Zhan Yu glanced at the two of them with a clear look, shrugged his shoulders, and spoke: "The two masters have a way, then I, the slave and maid, don't worry, I toss for most of the night, the masters still rest, and the slave and maid are waiting outside." ”
After saying that, Ji Yu turned around and walked out, leaving the space in the room for Xiao Yat and Qingchen.
"After such a fuss today, is the princess still sleepy?" Xiao Yi looked at Qingchen and asked.
"What does the prince think, even if you have to brake quietly, you have to be prepared, you can't wait for others to calculate, and then you are in a hurry, right?" Qingchen said with a smile.
"Let's go, then. Xiao Yi said, and jumped out of the window with Qingchen, "Follow me to a place." ”
The two of them performed light skills and walked quickly in the dark night, Qingchen's hand was always tightly held by Xiao Yi, and he never relaxed in the slightest. She looked at the smile walking in front of her left, and the smile on the corner of her mouth looked a little bewitching and dazzling in the dark night, which made her a little distracted for a while.
I don't know how long it took, when I heard Xiao Yi say it, Qingchen came back to his senses, looking at the position of the two of them, not far away, the warblers were singing and dancing, people came and went, and they didn't have to think about it to know what kind of place this was.
"Light smoke and green willows?" Qingchen turned his head and asked Xiao Yi.
"The princess is really smart. Let's go, haven't you always wanted to meet the legendary little peach?" Xiao Yi led Qingchen into the back door of the light smoke and green willows, and went directly into the backyard, avoiding the crowd in front of him, and went upstairs.
The room on the top floor of the light smoke and green willow is Xiao Yi's exclusive room, and every time he comes to the light smoke and green willow, he rests here.
The door was opened, and Xiao Yi walked in with Qingchen, but the two people who were waiting inside were dumbfounded, looking at Qingchen, and then at Xiao Yi, and after a long time, he saluted: "See the princess." ”
"Zhao Xu, Zhao Yan, it turns out that the two of you stay here every day, and you are quite good at picking places, with Xiao Yi as the backstage, this girl with light smoke and willows, isn't it all your two brothers?" Qingchen looked at the two people in front of him, and then joked.
The princess laughed. Zhao Xu was more familiar with Qingchen in the end, so he said with some embarrassment.
"Xiao Yi, now is not a good time to look for flowers and willows, you brought me here, should it be just to let me see your beauty cave?" Qingchen turned his head to look at Xiao Yi and asked.
"Zhao Xu, you go, Mr. Liu, please come over. Xiao Yi didn't answer Qingchen's words, but turned his head to Zhao Xu and commanded.
Zhao Xu took the order and left, and Zhao Yan waited on the side.
Qingchen saw that Xiao Yi didn't say anything more, but walked to the desk, turned on the light next to him, and then picked up the pen and ink on the desk, spread out the paper, and waved the pen on the paper.
Xiao Yat is not writing, but drawing, and the room is full of pen, ink, paper, inkstone and various pigments, which is just convenient.
He painted it when he first saw Mu Qingchen in the vast mountains, when Qingchen was dressed in a bright red wedding dress, with a hibiscus hairpin carved from white jade on his head, behind which were the lush woods of the vast mountains, and when the night fell, there was a residual ray of sunset in the sky.
Qingchen walked to Xiao Yi's side and watched him swing without pausing at all, as if her face was so deeply in his mind, there was no need to think about it carefully, as if it could appear in front of him at any moment.
Looking at Xiao Yi who was so serious, watching himself on the white rice paper gradually take shape, Qingchen couldn't tell what it was like in his heart, he only lowered his head and sighed that the world is impermanent, when she approached Xiao Yi to say hello, she just thought that she could use his identity as Prince Yi, but she never thought that one day, she would stand by his side like this, watching him sketch her one by one.
