Chapter 71 Eavesdropping, Secret Attack

On the way back to the palace, Huangfu Ao didn't speak a word, and Yan Ruobing didn't bother to provoke him, the two of them kept a distance neither far nor close in the carriage, staring at each other until they returned to the palace.

As soon as he got off the carriage, the butler who had been waiting at the door hurried up to greet him, and then he reported something in Huangfu Ao's ear.

Yan Ruobing didn't hear the butler's words, but judging by the panicked expression on the butler's face, something bad must have happened.

After Huangfu Ao heard this, his expression changed immediately, he strode towards the palace, and left Yan Ruobing alone at the gate of the palace.

Yan Ruobing didn't care, and went back to Taozhu Pavilion by herself.

After resting for a day and a night, Xiaotao's injury is almost healed.After Yan Ruobing went to visit Xiaotao, she went back to her room to rest.

She didn't sleep well last night, fearing that Huangfu Ao would wake up in the middle of the night and make a sneak attack, so she almost didn't sleep all night.

Seeing Yan Ruobing's exhaustion, Xiaotao and Xue'er didn't disturb her, allowing Yan Ruobing to sleep comfortably until the sun went down.

"Miss, neither you nor the prince came back last night. Tonight, the prince left the palace in a hurry. Did something happen?"

After Yan Ruobing woke up, Xiaotao asked curiously while tidying up for Yan Ruobing.

"The prince is not in the palace? When did you leave?"

Hearing that Huangfu Ao had left the palace, Yan Ruobing immediately revived.She only knew that during the day, Huangfu Ao looked weird, but she didn't know exactly what happened.

However, since Huangfu Ao is not in the palace.She had to take advantage of such a good opportunity!
Yan Ruobing dressed up a bit, so she disguised herself as a man and sneaked out of the palace again.

She had been trapped in the palace before, and she hadn't gone out to play in the streets for a long time.

Although it was already sunset, the capital city was bustling and bustling at night, with vendors hawking in an endless stream.

After getting tired from playing in the street, Yan Ruobing went directly to Zuixian Tower.

This is the place where Huangfu Ao brought her here last time, and she still remembers the matchmaker who dressed her up meticulously.

Zuixianlou is the largest restaurant in the capital, and it is the busiest time when it is full of guests.

Yan Ruobing found a corner seat by the window and sat down, and ordered some side dishes and drinks casually.

This position can not only hide her well, but she can also safely observe the situation in the hall.

There is also a stage in the hall on the ground floor of Zuixianluo, but it is a place for some entertainers to perform.

But at this time, a show was being performed on the stage, and the sound of gongs and drums was overwhelming, and the performance was at its most intense.

Yan Ruobing also sat in her seat and watched with relish. There is nothing to entertain in this ancient times, it's just these handymen, singing and dancing, drama and so on.

However, just when she was watching happily, two familiar figures walked through the hall and went directly upstairs.

Yan Ruobing was sure that she was not mistaken, because she was very familiar with those two people, one was Huangfu Yi, and the other was Huangfu Ao.

"How did the two of them come here?"

Yan Ruobing said to herself suspiciously, although Huangfu Ao brought her to this place, but at this time, Huangfu Ao and Huangfu Yi appeared here together, there must be something wrong.

Without thinking too much, Yan Ruobing followed upstairs quietly.

Arriving at one of the most luxurious private rooms on the fourth floor, Yan Ruobing quietly jumped onto the beam, and then carefully looked at the situation inside.

Besides Huangfu Ao and Huangfu Yi, there was a man in white in the room, but the man in white had his back to her, so she couldn't see his face clearly.

Huangfu Ao sat directly opposite to the man in white. Judging from the way he looked at the man in white, it seemed that they were old acquaintances and not strangers.

Yan Ruobing carefully observed every move of everyone in the room, only to see the man in white put a dark purple ceramic vial on the table, and then said something.

The man in white's voice was very low, Yan Ruobing couldn't hear it very clearly, he could only hear something like blood or something.

Huangfu accepted the things with a blank expression. After a moment of silence, he suddenly said: "The plan needs to be advanced, so we must speed up the refining of the elixir."

In order to be able to hear their conversation clearly, Yan Ruobing moved closer to the skylight, almost pressing her whole body against the wall next to the beam.

"Now the crown prince is gone, and the queen's power has also been weakened. The second prince returned to the border early. This is a good opportunity for the prince. You must not let the tiger go back to the mountain."

At this time, Yan Ruobing suddenly heard the voice of the man in white. The man's voice was a bit strange, with a trace of magic sound, as if it had been processed by a voice changer.

But what Yan Ruobing cared about was not the man's unique voice, but the words in the man's mouth.Obviously, he wanted Huangfu Ao to deal with Huangfu Fei.

"Huangfu Fei is very cunning, it's not easy to deal with, and he still holds military power..."

"My lord becomes a mother-in-law whenever he does things. If you want to succeed, you shouldn't have any worries. It's not difficult to kill someone."

Before Huangfuao finished speaking, the man in white directly interrupted his words in displeasure, and reminded him what to do in a cold tone.

"Third Brother, the doctor is right. As long as we get rid of Second Brother on the way, we don't have to worry about his military power anymore."

At this time, Huangfu Yi suddenly spoke, and his eyes were full of determination, as if he had no brotherhood towards Huangfu Fei.

"This king naturally knows what to do, but now this king has another good way to successfully ascend to the crown prince, so let Huangfu Fei live a few more days."

"Since the third prince thinks this way, I have to ask the third prince more. Is there any result in the case of buying and selling girls that the prince investigated recently?"

Hearing this incident, Huangfu Ao's originally confident eyes dimmed a bit, "The evidence has not yet been confirmed, and the mastermind behind it has not been arrested."

"The people below have heard the news that the Third Prince has recently recruited troops at the border, stockpiled weapons, and accelerated military training under the pretext of defending against foreign enemies. The military expenses spent are not a small amount!"

"The doctor's consciousness is that the case is related to the second brother?"

This time it was Huangfu Yi who spoke, obviously the news shocked him.

The man in white didn't continue talking, but Huangfuao's eyes became deeper and deeper, as if he understood something.

"This king knows what to do! Shuoyue has tracked down the target, and she can do it anytime!"

Yan Ruobing was terrified when she heard that, she never expected that Huangfu Ao was conspiring to assassinate Huangfu Fei.
