After I bloom, a hundred flowers will kill

Chapter 423: Being Overheard

It is a waterway hidden behind a high mountain. Few people climb up the high mountain, and no one would think that there is a river passing through the mountains behind the mountain, and they can leave Kyoto from here.

Gu Qingzhi likes to climb mountains to collect spices or look for rare flowers and plants. She reached the top of the mountain by accident and almost fell. Later, Xiao Changqing found a branch with her fabric hanging on the treetop, thinking she fell from there, and hurried down the mountain to find someone. When I found it, I searched in the water with a bamboo raft, and found this secret waterway by accident.

Little is known about this matter, these days Xiao Zhangqing must have played many tricks to disperse Xiao Huayong's people, and then secretly found a way, if there is no such secret waterway, the only way he can choose To confuse Xiao Huayong, let Xiao Huayong be sure that this is his only choice.

Shen Xihe was about to turn around to look for Xiao Huayong at the moment, but he calmed down in an instant, Xiao Changqing might not have been staring at Xiao Huayong's every move.

After she gave Xiao Zhangqing a slight nod, she turned back to her room and immediately summoned Mo Yuan, telling him to rush back quickly, on the grounds that she was going to pick up what she had left behind.

When Xiao Huayong was in the capital, Xiao Changqing didn't dare to act rashly, so he set off today, he wanted to cover the mountains and ridges with Ye Wantang with him, the footsteps should not be too fast, if Mo Yuan can catch up, he can stop the killing in time .

"Princess, what happened?" Pearl looked at Shen Xihe who was standing in front of the window looking at the moon, and moved the candlestick closer to Shen Xihe.

Ever since the princess met His Royal Highness Xin Wang, his expression became solemn, and he remained silent after sending Mo Yuan out.

"I know how King Xin helped Xiao Changtai out of danger, and I sent Mo Yuan back to ambush." ​​Shen Xihe will not hide too much from his confidantes, otherwise it will make them speculate and worry for no reason, which is not conducive to the trust and harmony between master and servant. tacit agreement.

"Princess, don't you tell His Highness the Crown Prince?" Pearl asked after hesitating for a moment.

It's not that Pearl doesn't believe in Shen Xihe, nor does it have a feeling of dependence on Xiao Huayong.It's just that Xiao Huayong and Xiao Changqing were secretly competing with each other from the beginning to the end of this matter, and Shen Xihe never intervened.

"No need." Shen Xihe shook his head.

Except that Xiao Huayong was informed of some worries, Xiao Changqing was alerted when Xiao Huayong moved, Shen Xihe didn't know how to explain to Xiao Huayong how she was able to know such a secret reason.

Are you lying?Xiao Huayong is too smart, he must have a judgment on whether what she said is the truth.

In the future, will this cause a grievance to be planted between each other and hide the root of the disaster?

It is absolutely impossible to answer truthfully, even her father and brother, she has no intention of telling it, let alone Xiao Huayong?

But don't tell Xiao Huayong that with her strength alone, the chance of ambush Xiao Changtai in the combination of Xiao Changqing and Xiao Changtai is very small.

Fortunately, she did not expect to kill Xiao Changtai this time, but did her best.

"Princess, are you waiting for the result if you don't rest?" Pearl asked, "Do you want to prepare some refreshments for the princess?"

"No need to bother..."

"What are you doing here?" Before Shen Xihe finished speaking, Shen Yingluo's voice sounded outside the room.

Shen Xihe and Pearl walked out quickly, and they saw Shen Yingwei outside the carved window, leading Tan Shi and two maids, and Biyu who came earlier blocked Gu Qingshu.

This is a corner outside her house, and you have to go around her house to get here, but Gu Qingshu is next to her house, and you can also come here from outside Gu Qingshu's window. She is alone, without a servant girl.

Shen Yingluo's room was facing Gu Qingshu's window. She was packing her things when she happened to see Gu Qingshu jump out of the window, and then the cat stayed there for a long time, so she brought the maid and Tan over. Shu was separated by a wall, but she could hear a faint voice coming from Shen Xihe's room, so she sounded a reminder.

"My raccoon slave was lost, and I came here only when I heard its call." Gu Qingshu explained softly.

"I saw you jumping here when I was in the room. I walked over from the room, and this place is too small to turn around. How long would it take?" Shen Yingluo stood on the other side of the wall, looking through the slit The window hole is particularly aggressive in the night, "Since it is a raccoon slave, why don't you call it out?"

"I..." Gu Qingshu was at a loss for words for a while, and ignored Shen Yingluo, but looked at Shen Xihe with clear eyes, "Princess, I am really a raccoon slave."

Shen Xihe glanced around, she indeed smelled the scent of the raccoon slave that belonged to Gu Qingshu, which proved that her cat was real and just jumped out from here not long ago, she smiled slightly: "The raccoon slave is real, Eavesdropping is also true."

Gu Qingshu still couldn't make a point of jumping to this corner to squat for eavesdropping. Before that, they didn't know that eavesdropping was possible here, let alone what secrets the other party would have.

It should be to find the cat to jump down, and it happened that she could faintly hear Shen Xihe mentioning Xiao Changqing, so she let the cat run away and squatted here to eavesdrop.

Following Shen Xihe's gaze, Gu Qingshu landed on the bent clump of grass and the stamped marks, which were obviously in the direction of Shen Xihe's house, and it would not have formed if it hadn't been for a long time. With such traces, she still calmly said: "Princess, my raccoon slave was entangled here just now, and I squatted here to help it out of trouble. It was Mrs. Shen who frightened me so that it escaped." .”

Shen Yingluo's utterance did startle Gu Qingshu, and the cat caught by her broke free and jumped out. This scene was indeed seen by Shen Yingluo, Tan Shi and the maid, but it was clearly not the case.

"you……"

Shen Yingluo was about to make a sound, but Shen Xihe interrupted her by raising his hand, turned around and said to her through the window, "It's late at night, go back to your room early and rest, the journey is long tomorrow, it's not easy to sleep in the carriage due to the heat."

Shen Xihe is the eldest sister, so naturally Shen Yingwei would not refute her orders in front of outsiders, not to mention that she understood Shen Xihe's methods better than others, so she obediently complied, and took Tan Shi and the servant girls away.

After they left, Shen Xihe turned to Gu Qingshu and said, "Master Liyang County, this is just this one time, don't make another example."

After leaving a faint sentence, Shen Xihe took Jasper and Pearl back to the room, regardless of what Gu Qingshu did.

Because they are all noble girls, it is inconvenient for the guards to guard in the house, Mo Yu returned to the capital together with Mo Yuan, only Ziyu, Jasper and Pearl were left to serve Shen Xihe, and Hongyu stayed in the capital to take care of her. Duhuo Building.

Inevitably there will be omissions.

"Princess, will she hear..." Pearl worried.

"So what if I hear it?" Shen Xihe didn't care, "Even if I know now, it's too late."
