Chapter 226 Assassination on the way to Jiangnan 3
"Your Highness!" Lan Xue was very surprised after hearing this, calmed down, and quickly turned her head and said, "My maidservant remembers that both Empress Li and His Royal Highness King Xing like sweet-scented osmanthus cakes, and I will let my maidservant." Before she finished speaking, she saw the other party He picked up a cloud cake and stuffed it into his mouth.
"Go." Qi Zheng said vaguely, "Leave these."

".Yes!" Seeing Lan Xue, she quickly put down her snacks and hurried to the back kitchen!
Bai Xue was arranging and cleaning the cooking utensils in the back kitchen of the East Palace. His thoughts were still wandering, thinking about how to swallow the whole heart-changing pill for the master. Suddenly hearing the hurried footsteps outside the door, he pulled back his consciousness and saw his sister Trotted in, patted his chest and panted desperately
"elder sister?!"

"Scared me to death." Lan Xue drank a cup of tea without saying a word, and then said softly, "I thought I was discovered by the master. Fortunately, fortunately~"

Bai Xue: "Sister, what happened?"

"Your Highness ordered me to prepare special snacks and send them to Qingque Palace." Lan Xue explained, seeing that the other party was also nervous, she comforted her, "Don't worry, the master is not suspicious and is eating. It seems that the master is going to Qingque Palace I'm going to bring some gifts there." She stood up and carefully took out a plate of sweet-scented osmanthus cake from the steamer, and put it in a ventilated place until it cooled completely.
Bai Xue also helped find a beautiful brocade box and picked sweet-scented osmanthus flowers, preparing to decorate the sweet-scented osmanthus cake. While moving, he suddenly thought of something!Hurry up and whisper to my sister! !
"!!!" After listening to Lan Xue, she felt that what her brother said was reasonable!Since the master asked them to identify the ingredients of the sachet, it means that the master is different from His Highness and does not understand medicine!
The two looked at each other tacitly, thinking carefully~
After a while, Prince Zheng led Lan Xue to Qingque Palace, only to see Concubine Li coming out to greet her.
"Why don't you see Brother Ying?" He looked around and asked.

"Go back to His Royal Highness the Prince." Nanny Gui from Qingque Palace replied respectfully, "His Royal Highness King Xing went to the gate of the palace to see His Royal Highness King Yi'an and Princess Yi'an off."

"Ah~" Prince Zheng changed his mind and signaled Lan Xue to put down the snacks, "It's just right, I'm going to send Brother Ming off too." After he finished speaking, he turned around and left Qingque Palace, leading Lan Xue straight to the destination!
In front of the palace gate.

"Brother Erhuang~" King Xing was grabbing his elder brother's sleeve, playing coquettishly, "Let Xiao Wang go with you~" She looked like someone's concubine. the ~
Yan Mo put his arms around his chest with great interest, watching King Xing's performance, secretly laughing, thinking that such a Ninth Prince is really rare in the world!
"Brother Jiuhuang, this king was demoted to Jiangnan, how can I take you with me?" Qi Ming mercilessly pulled back his sleeves, and said in a flat tone, "Besides, Jiangnan is far away from Beijing, and local forces will inevitably run rampant. , it’s not safe for you to go.”

"Huh!" King Xing snorted, and said angrily, "I also said to let Xiao Wang see more sufferings in the world. It's not the northern line or the southern border, it's just the south of the Yangtze River. I don't want to take Xiao Wang there!" He reached out and grabbed Qi Ming's sleeve again!Shameless, there is a tendency for me to rely on you! !
"Don't be like a dog's skin plaster!" Yan Mo couldn't stand it anymore. If she continued to be entangled like this, she wouldn't be able to leave the palace after dark. She wiped off King Xing's hand and pulled Qi Ming behind her. Thought you were his concubine!"

King Xing was taken aback!So desperately following the other party's words, I fantasized about myself pretending to be a concubine cough cough! !It's really dirty!He swung his arms, scattered those non-existent appearances, and was about to rob someone with that gangster!I don't want the other party to slap me in the face! !Staggered two steps! !
Qi Ming took the opportunity to pull Yan Mo into the carriage, moving very fast! !With one order, he roared out of the palace gate! ! !

"Second Brother——" King Xing wanted to catch up, but he didn't want the smoke and dust to roll in, making him cough again and again while blinding his eyes, "cough cough cough!!"

"Brother Lin." Prince Zheng just arrived, and saw that King Yi'an's chariot had already driven out of the palace gate, which was just right!

"Ahem! Huh? Brother Prince?" King Xing turned around and hugged his arm immediately, and said coquettishly, "Brother Prince! Quickly think of a way to let Xiao Wang go to the south of the Yangtze River with Second Brother~"

Qizheng could only reluctantly accept this kind of skillful arms-folding, pretending to be kind and judo: "Brother Lin really wants to go to Jiangnan?"

"Of course!" King Xing nodded affirmatively!
A gleam of light flashed in Qizheng's eyes, he smirked, and whispered a few words in the other's ear.
King Xing's eyes lit up a little bit!I am so happy that I can't believe I look back at my big brother.
Prince Zheng watched his younger brother continue to smile, quietly withdrew his arm, coughed lightly, and led Lan Xue away as if nothing had happened.
King Xing couldn't hide his joy, he jumped up and down twice, glanced proudly at the guards around him, and swaggered back to Qingque Palace!
On the way back to the East Palace, Lan Xue didn't know what the master had said to King Xing, and was worrying about what else to do. If she didn't want to, she just listened to the master's next sentence.
"Lan Xue, when Brother Nine Emperors makes a move, you will follow secretly and watch on my behalf! Hahaha~" After Qi Zheng finished speaking, he couldn't help laughing~ causing Lan Xue to widen her eyes in surprise Almond eyes!So confused! !

Yi'an Palace.

After Qi Ming returned home, he ordered Lu Jiu and Qian Su to pack their bags, and sat by the tea table to think about it.
Why did the royal father let himself kidnap Concubine Li?Why let Yan'er investigate everything?Also, the matter could be resolved so smoothly. Not only was Concubine Li cleared of suspicion, but Concubine Qi was also saved?The more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. Based on his understanding of his father, this matter might not be simple. It was very possible. Both himself and Yan'er were pawns in his father's game?So, is it true that the father already knows everything? !Also, the matter of General Liu is also quite strange. The emperor said it so firmly at the time, as if he had already confirmed it.
"!!!" Qi Ming suddenly sat up in shock!The matter between Liu Jie and Concubine Qi is enough to make him suspect that there is an eyeliner of his father in the mansion! !Although, all the people in the mansion were carefully selected by him, there should be no careful work.But if it is the person placed by the father, he must be very wise and foolish, and it is not easy to be doubted. Then, who is this person?

"My lord?!" Lu Jiu tidied up his luggage and asked his lord to have a look. After calling several times, his lord didn't come back to his senses!

Qi Ming stopped his thoughts, turned around and looked at the other party, causing Lu Jiu to think that he had done something wrong, so he quickly knelt down to apologize!

"Your Majesty, forgive me! Subordinates" Lu Jiu didn't know where she made a mistake, she tilted her head, thinking desperately that the package was packed incorrectly?Or did the prince find out about speaking ill of the master behind his back?Or did the prince get jealous when he saddled the princess?
If you are wise enough to be stupid, like Lu Jiu, you should have shown your feet a long time ago!

"Get up." Qi Ming lost his momentum, let Lu Jiu go, and let him carry on with his luggage.Later, he called Lai Qiansu and said, "Father ordered me to send the reward to the Tianmu faction, and I will leave this matter to you. After finishing, you will go to Hezhou to support Lanbo."

"Your subordinate obeys." Qian Su replied, and then remembered another matter, he asked for instructions, "How does the prince plan to deal with the follow-up construction of Mengxiang Tower?"

"The acquisition of Mengxiang Building was originally used to monitor Yun Shikang," Qi Ming thought, "If Mr. Yun knows that it was repaired by the two banks of the king, he will definitely suspect Liao Can."

Qiansu: "What does the lord mean?"

Qi Ming felt that it was a pity to abandon Mengxiang Tower just like that. After thinking about it, he had to go out: "Qiansu, take people to the bamboo forest in the south of the city." Fan came to the main house with a folding fan. At this moment, Yan Mo had packed his bags and was accompanying the people in the other courtyard.He moved quickly, lifted the bed board in the inner room, shrunk and jumped and disappeared!
The setting sun was about to go down the mountain, and the sunset glowed everywhere. Liao Can was wearing a black hood, and was quietly taken by Qian Su to the bamboo forest. There were few people in the distance, which was very suitable for secret talks.

Qi Ming was already waiting by the stream, standing gracefully under the sunlight, the golden light outlined his well-proportioned figure
"Ah!" Liao Can, whose hood had been removed, took a breath of fresh air, saw the figure, recognized who it was, and hurriedly saluted, "My lord!"

Qian Su slapped Liao Can at the right time, forcing him to change his words immediately!

"Ah, the villain has seen the young master."

"Mengxiang Building has suffered serious losses. My son wants you to sell and pawn other property and fields. You must restore it as before." Qi Ming did not turn around, "Don't worry, as long as you use all the money from the sale in Mengxiang Tower, this young master will In addition, I will give you a sum of money as a subsidy, and you are still the boss of Mengxianglou."

Liao Can is a shrewd person. After thinking about it for a while, he knew that the other party was doing this to keep Mengxianglou, and at the same time he didn't want to expose himself. He thought about it and asked, "What is the other money?"

The corners of Qi Ming's lips curled up: "My lord will give it to you in batches. As long as you manage Mengxianglou properly, you will be indispensable for money. If Mengxianglou never recovers, I will sell your property and land as a pawn." Buy it back, redeem it one by one, and return it to you."

Liao Can pondered, this is a deal that cannot be lost. The prince does not want to expose his identity, so he will not break his promise. Thinking of this, he smiled and said: "Young master, don't worry! The villain understands!!"

Qi Ming still turned his back to others, and said with a slight smile: "Boss Liao, there is no need to rush to agree, I have other things for you to do."

"." Liao Can lowered his head, looked at the young master and asked, "What else does the young master need from the villain?"

Under the rays of the sun, Qi Ming only smiled meaningfully~
The people in Beijing saw the sun go down, and those who closed their stalls closed their stalls, and those who went home went home. In a short while, several city gates became crowded with traffic. After the warm light faded, the stars blinked, accompanied by the moon hanging high in the sky.It was late at night, and in the evening, Yun Shikang, who had returned to Beijing in disguise, walked out of an inn, avoided the crowds, and headed to the old place.
The deep valley under the dark night was filled with gloomy coldness. Yazheng had been recharging his energy for a day and still maintained a male posture. At this time, his eyesight can also recover a little. The white of the red eyes faded to reddish, and the pale eyes showed Gray-black.But he can only see light and shade, and cannot distinguish too many colors.Following Shen Bu's walking, he slowly walked out of the deep valley with a whoosh!Hidden in the night! !

In Prince Yi'an's mansion, everyone was sleeping soundly in order to go out the next day, but the guards outside the mansion were still on guard, guarding the safety of the manor with due diligence.Only Qing Muhui couldn't fall asleep because of worrying about the night and thinking too much, pacing in the guest courtyard, thinking how to avoid the eyes of everyone, taking the antidote of Jue Ning Pill, so as to track Ya Zheng.
Feng Zhiben slept with the window open, so that he could be dispatched at any time just in case. Taking advantage of the dark night, he hid in the corner and cast his eyes on the second master. Seeing that the other party was just pacing back and forth, and had no intention of going out, he relax, keep watching
The huge full moon, bright and bright, Yazheng flew over half of the capital, moving forward faintly according to the direction of the perceived evil spirit!Occasionally, a black-robed figure appeared on the treetops. After observing the direction, he disappeared in the night again, moving indistinctly like a ghost! !The treetops he had stood on remained motionless, as if no one had ever stayed there.
When he came near the destination, he turned around and looked around, only to realize that such a luxurious courtyard was the Yi'an Palace.

"There is evil spirit in the palace of Prince Yi'an?" His masculine voice sounded faintly, and he said to himself.When he lifted off again and smelled a familiar smell, he couldn't help but tilt his head, like an ignorant animal, "Isn't this the boy who dragged me down?" He turned to look at the man in the courtyard. The young man in Tsing Yi could barely make out the face of the other party by the moonlight. After a few breaths, he regained his stern expression and expanded his perception. In the direction of Yanmingyuan, "There is also that female doll who is chasing after him."

At the same time, a few buildings away, Mo Yu became alert!He walked over to the window and stared straight at Yi'an Palace! !Surely he sensed Ya Zheng's breath, he jumped!The cat waist walks on the eaves!Come to a corner of the roof where you can observe the whole picture of the palace and hide your figure!However, from a distance, he saw Ya Zheng suspended in mid-air, with his left hand supporting his right hand, and his right hand resting his cheek, thinking about something like an ignorant child. Only three or two breaths!Seeing the other party move suddenly, he quickly slid down the roof! !Hide in the deeper darkness and wait with bated breath.
Yazheng really sensed the sound of someone else's breathing in this direction, silently stepped on the roof to check the silence, suddenly!He heard thunderous snoring from the room under the ridge! !He was speechless for a while, as uncomfortable as stepping on dog shit, and flicked his ink robe!Disappear in the dark!gone! ! !
After a while, Mo Yu came out from the corner of the house, looked back at the door, and had to thank the owner for his shocking snoring!Saved myself once! !After a few silent steps, he also disappeared into the deep night! ! !
On the other side, there was still the hidden small bridge where the water flowed. Yun Shikang waited for a long time before he saw the black-robed nobleman appearing from another direction, walking with heavy steps, and standing on the small bridge.But he was still standing there, with a distance from the other party.

"My lord, forgive me!" Yun Shikang pleaded respectfully, "The little one failed to complete the mission and let Nayou Chengling escape."

"Escaped?" The black-robed nobleman stood with his back to his hands, his tone displeased.

"I was going to catch it!" Yun Shikang said regretfully, "I don't want someone to cut me off halfway! Those people have good movements, one of them is a woman, and she has amazing skills! With her sword, she will make a sound like someone is crying! Believe it With this inquiry, we will be able to know their identities.”

"A sword like a cry?" the nobleman in black interrupted, and then laughed. According to the secret report from the northern line, it was Princess Yi'an's sword.He said calmly, "It seems that King Yi'an and Ling Youcheng have met face to face."

Yun Shikang said nervously: "Why do you make such a decision, my lord?"

The black-robed nobleman: "This group of people not only know the order of You Cheng, but also have great skills. Who else can it be? Besides, the sword that can cry is called Cang Qi, and it is the sword that Princess Yi'an wears. In this Battle of Mangzhou, Princess Yi'an shined brilliantly! She has earned a lot of good reputation for King Yi'an!!"

Yun Shikang rolled his eyes, and You Chengling escaped, fearing that he would inevitably be punished, so he changed the subject and said, "My lord! For the great cause, why don't we make King Yi'an!!"

"Hahahaha~" the black-robed nobleman couldn't help but look at the night sky in the distance and said, "With King Yi'an's peerless skill, if we rashly send someone to assassinate, maybe we will expose ourselves instead."

Yun Shikang stared at the back of the other party guilty, not daring to speak, it seems that punishment cannot be escaped
"I know." The black-robed nobleman did not show his face, he hung his eyeliner in the shadow of the hood, and looked behind him. He knew exactly what the other party was afraid of, "You Chengling escaped, you are afraid that this seat will punish you, Is it right?"

"Small ones don't dare." Yun Shikang said with a sneer, dodging his eyes
"King Yi'an, it's already difficult to deal with, it's no fault of you."

Hearing the nobleman's words, Yun Shikang was overjoyed: "Thank you sir for being sympathetic to the little ones!"

"However!" The black-robed nobleman withdrew his gaze, and said in a cold tone, "This is not an example." Hearing the other party's nodding and saying yes, he raised his hand to stop the sound, and then said, "King Yi'an is going to Jiangnan, let me keep an eye on you." Tighten up! Every move must be reported!"

".Yes!" Yun Shikang has to answer no matter how difficult it is. This is a good opportunity to pay off the crime. Fortunately, there are some eyeliners he has placed among the local officials. They can pay attention to King Yi'an's actions along the way. "Don't worry, my lord." !"

The night was quiet, and after the black-robed nobleman disappeared, Yun Shikang stood still for a long time, and suddenly he clenched his fists, with a murderous look in his eyes!If you want to avoid future troubles forever, King Yi'an and Princess Yi'an must get rid of them as soon as possible! !With the flip of his sleeves, he quietly turned around and left the secret meeting place
The bright moon hangs high, the small bridge and flowing water are quiet, and there are no traces of people. But more than ten feet away, a graceful figure flashed from the shadow of the bamboo forest!Disappeared in the blink of an eye!Only the bamboo shadow remains, and the stars blink their sleepy eyes
