There are beauties in the East Palace

Chapter 45
He nodded, stretched out his index finger to his lips and gestured for silence, I quickly held my breath.But listen to their voices echoing in the peach forest.

The man asked sharply, "I said, I want to kill Wu Yan as soon as possible, why are you still hesitating?"

The woman was a little perplexed, "Didn't you agree to give him a slow poison before, so that he would die silently? Why are you so anxious to kill him now?"

"Oh, the case of bones in the dry well in the general's mansion was stabbed to my father's place. Paper can't cover the flames. Right now, the empress mother and the old general have become thorns in my father's eyes. If the truth is dug out by the descendants of the detective Ye Wenhe , my crown prince, being deposed is a trivial matter! At that time, the entire Wu Kingdom will be in turmoil!"

The man's voice had obviously escalated from excitement to fury, and even more panic. The woman seemed to be choked. She kept coughing and said for a long time, "Yingying understands, please forgive me, Prince!"

Prince Wu?

I was always in the dark about the corpse incident, and I don't understand why the matter has developed to the current stage, even Luo Yingying and the Crown Prince of Wu have intervened.It's just a pity that Wu Yan loves the wrong person. Luo Yingying is not a spy of Zhou Guo, but a chess piece buried beside him by the crown prince he is loyal to. If Wu Yan knew everything, it would be even more painful.

However, I don't believe that Luo Yingying really hasn't had any feelings for Wu Yan.

I sighed, for this pair of fateful mandarin ducks.Turning his head, he saw Ye Qiyan's expression of sudden realization, but he said, "He probably didn't expect that forcing me under this waterfall would bring me one step closer to the truth."

"the truth?"

"Yes, Old General Wu and the Empress conspired to kill those two corpses in order to hide a secret, and the Crown Prince of Wu is obviously the one who knows the truth, and he chose to make the secret disappear completely."

"Disappear completely? No, it is Wu Yan who the Crown Prince of Wu wants to disappear! So, the secret is Wu Yan?"

Ye Qiyan smiled, "You must have saved the common people in your previous life, so you will meet me in this life."

Thanks to him being able to say such shameless words, "Why do you say that?"

"Didn't you think you had a higher IQ when you were with me?"

"..." At this time, can you be more serious? "By the way, the ones you mentioned refer to the little widow and that mysterious person... The little widow is the second princess of the state of Jin, and the state of Jin is Xiyu's ally, so she stole the bones and wanted to destroy them, and now she forces you to fall into the trap." Under the waterfall to prevent you from finding out the truth, it seems that they are helping Wu to hide the secret, but it is strange, they seem to have not communicated beforehand, otherwise, you would not have encountered the scene just now, it is impossible, the little widow and the others have another purpose ?”

I heard Ye Qiyan say cool words in a very calm tone, "There are no permanent friends, only permanent enemies. If you want to keep yourself from being passive, you can only put others in a passive position. Wu Guo hopes Hiding the secret, the Jin State hopes to use this as a handle to control the Wu State, this is a very simple reason."

"Don't people have to fight each other like this, can't it be simple and pure?"

"The wages of avarice is death."

"Then what about you? Bringing your child all the way from Chen to Wu, and exposing such a big secret, what benefits can you gain?" Sometimes, whenever I think of Little Baozi, I feel that Ye Qiyan is a big man, Raising the child with one hand, and still looking so cute, I think he should be a good father and a good husband.But sometimes, I feel that I never seem to see through Ye Qiyan.

Right now I'm not suspicious of him, just curious.

"Is it a benefit to embrace a beautiful woman?"

His ecstatic smile made me flustered and my legs were weak. I accidentally slipped my foot and was hit by a stone to my ankle. Although I held back and didn't make a sound, the sound of the stone flying out and hitting another stone But it woke up the two of them.Ye Qiyan sighed, "I'm really not afraid of opponents who are like gods, but teammates who are like pigs."

"..."

But when Ye Qiyan shot the leaves into the air, a bird landed next to the stone, and the two of them breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that it was a bird.

After those two people left, I limped out, bowed softly to the little bird that seemed to have some internal injuries, and then said to Ye Qi, "Look, sometimes birds are not just for food. It died, it just flew and met a birdman, and then there was no more..."

Ye Qiyan nodded, "Look, that bird man is still pretending to be kind."

Can we really be happy friends like this?
Fortunately, this Taoist nun is broad-minded and doesn't like to think about it. "What should I do next? Then Luo Yingying is actually a spy sent by the prince of Wu. Wu Yan's life may be in danger."

"Since Luo Yingying can come down here, there must be an exit."

I stepped up and wanted to leave, but seeing Ye Qiyan still standing there, I urged, "Hurry up, we have to keep up with them."

He hummed lightly, turned around, but instead of walking away, he squatted down and said softly, "Come up."

I was stunned for a moment, and felt that the ankle injury was actually not particularly serious, and I should be more reserved at this time, but after thinking about it, he was willing to carry it, and I was so full that I refused him without sickness, so I silently fell on him, his hand Holding my calf, he stood up cautiously, just after taking two steps, he suddenly turned his head and said in a low voice, "Hold tight."

I bit my lip, and then I dared to carefully wrap my arms around his neck, and put my chin on his shoulder.A piece of peach petals circled around and fell from the air, and landed on his forehead. I reached out and brushed it away for him. His face was so close to me, so close that I could touch it with my lips...
