The courtyard is deep in spring

Chapter 78
"Miss! Why are you back?" Liu'er wondered while serving, "And it was accompanied by His Highness the First Prince himself..."

The fact that Ye Zhaoqing was canonized as the Crown Princess was already known all over the world from the moment the imperial decree was issued. Although Liu Er was in the Jokhang Temple, she also got the news early.

While she was happy for Ye Zhaoqing, she couldn't help but feel lost for her former master Lin Xirong, but she was smart enough not to show it in front of Ye Zhaoqing.

"I'll come back to see Huahua." Ye Zhaoqing looked up at Liu'er, and said, "By the way, I will pick you up, this is what His Highness promised me."

"So that's how it is!" Liu'er suddenly realized when she heard the words: "I thought it was you who offended His Highness, and he sent you back... But I also know that this is simply impossible!"

Hearing this, Ye Zhaoqing couldn't help showing a smile on his face: "Liu'er, you still haven't regarded me as your real master, but I didn't force anything. Although I want to take you back this time, I will respect you." Opinion, if you don't want to follow me into the palace, I won't force it."

"Miss, what do you mean by that? Don't you want me anymore?" Liu'er's face turned pale when she heard this.

"No!" Ye Zhaoqing quickly shook his head: "The imperial palace is a place where people can eat people and don't spit out their bones. If you follow me into the palace, there will be many dangers. I don't want you to take this risk. You should always pay attention to what you want and what you want in everything." , are you right?"

Liu'er breathed a sigh of relief when she heard the words, touched her chest and said, "I was scared to death! I thought you really abandoned me, miss! I'm not afraid of danger. Anyway, after I came out of the Lin family, I decided that you were mine." Master!"

"Aren't you afraid to follow me into the palace to suffer?" Ye Zhaoqing raised his eyebrows.

"Don't be afraid!" Liu'er shook her head and said solemnly, "Miss, I will go wherever you go!"

"Do you want to go back to your lady's side?" Ye Zhaoqing asked suddenly.

Liu'er's complexion changed, and she said angrily: "Miss, what do you think of me? Since my lady gave me to you, then I will be your servant and I will serve you for the rest of my life. If I go back halfway, What does that look like? Wouldn't it make my lady fall into injustice?"

Ye Zhaoqing listened quietly, with a smile on his face.

Seeing this smile, Liu'er suddenly realized what she had said, and couldn't help explaining: "Miss! You are the master of this servant, and this servant was talking nonsense just now..."

"I don't blame you." Ye Zhaoqing shook his head and interrupted Liu'er, "I didn't mean to ask you to abandon Xirong and accept me as the master. Xirong's attitude was too firm in the Lin Mansion that day. There is no other way to take you away." She said with a wry smile, and said: "But after taking you away, I just want to protect you well. I really don't want you to go to a place like the palace. When the time comes It's easy for me, but hard for you."

After hearing this, Liu Er's eyes widened in surprise: "Miss? Are you leaving the palace? Your Highness the First Prince?"

"Shh! Keep your voice down!" Ye Zhaoqing stretched out his fingers and made a hissing motion in front of his mouth, and said with a smile: "This matter is a secret, don't tell others."

Liu'er's eyes were still wide open, she looked at Ye Zhaoqing in bewilderment, but she didn't speak again.

"Don't ask questions, you will understand later." Ye Zhaoqing smiled slightly and said, "Okay, you go out first, I want to rest for a while."

Liu'er nodded obediently, and said: "Then, miss, the servant will call you to get up for dinner in two hours?"

"it is good."

……

It was night, Ye Zhaoqing was sleeping in a daze, and suddenly felt a cool thing on his neck.

"Who is it?" She suddenly woke up from the dream, but after shouting this sentence, she suddenly felt someone click on her neck, and immediately after that, she couldn't make any sound.

The next moment, her body soared into the air, and she was hugged tightly and flew out of the window!
Ye Zhaoqing's heart fell to the bottom in an instant. She couldn't figure out who was so bold as to break through Li Yubu's hidden guards outside, quietly dodge Ji Yan and Shen Lang, sneak in here and take herself away?

Ye Xiangwan?Or Fang Zhilin?Or Mrs. Lin?
At present, there are only a few people who can be called her 'enemies' who want to put her to death. Which one will it be?
In a panic, Ye Zhaoqing suddenly thought of Mrs. Ye.

That old woman looked down on herself with half an eye, looking forward to her death outside all the time, could it be her?No!Tiger poison doesn't eat children, no matter what, her surname is Ye, Mrs. Ye won't do that!

But who would it be if it wasn't her?

Ye Zhaoqing couldn't figure it out, she was held by that man, she walked through the dark courtyard, the large palace, and finally came to a forest.

She couldn't exert all her strength, and she couldn't even look back at who that person was.

Finally stopped, the man threw her to the ground with a "bang!", and strode away.

When he came back a moment later, he had a shining lantern in his hand.

Ye Zhaoqing slowly got up from the ground, fixedly staring at the person walking towards her, secretly vigilant in his heart.

The man didn't seem to be afraid of being recognized by her at all, he walked up to Ye Zhaoqing without dodging or avoiding.

The light from the lantern illuminated the man's handsome, unparalleled face.

Ye Zhaoqing suddenly dared not say anything as if he had been struck by lightning: "My lord, what are you doing here in the middle of the night without sleeping?"

"What are you doing?" Murong Shen raised his beautiful eyebrows, glanced at Ye Zhaoqing with a half-smile, and said slowly, "Did you forget what you promised me before? When are you going to explain what I want?"

As he said, he took a step forward, his chest was almost touching the tip of Ye Zhaoqing's nose: "Why is Huahua so close to you, why is Princess Anning's jade pendant in your hand, and the Fenji sword, why are you trying so hard to get my brother's love?" Snatch it in your hand, you have to give me a reasonable explanation for all of this!"

Ye Zhaoqing was taken aback when he heard this, and said: "You can ask these questions anytime you want, it's not that I won't tell you, so I won't be taken here in the middle of the night, right? Aren't you afraid that His Highness will get angry?"

"That's why you hold on to the eldest prince, right?" Murong Shen sneered immediately after hearing the words: "I have to say, you made a wrong calculation!"

"You don't have to sneer." Ye Zhaoqing shook his head when he heard the words and said, "It's not that I haven't seen the scene of you getting along with His Royal Highness the First Prince. When he sees you, it's like a mouse seeing a cat. I didn't foolishly use him to contain you. That's self-defeating!"

"Oh? Really? You're quite self-aware, don't you?" Murong Shen's eyes flashed when he heard the words, and he continued, "Do you think I'm willing to go to such trouble? From the two confrontations, I know you're a smart person." People, if I press you in the palace or other places, you will definitely lie and deceive me, and you will only tell the truth if your wealth and life are in my hands!"

"What can you get if you force me to ask this?" Ye Zhaoqing shook his head and said, "I really can't figure it out. Huai Wang's family has been dead for so long..."

"Shut up!" Murong Shen's complexion suddenly changed: "Who do you think you are! What right do you have to mention King Huai!"

Ye Zhaoqing couldn't help being startled when he heard the words, he didn't expect that he just mentioned his father's name, and this man would have such a big reaction, and she couldn't help being curious about this Murong Shen.

"Master Taifu, what are you doing so radically?" Ye Zhaoqing asked curiously, "This has to make people suspect that you have something to do with King Huai?"

"None of your business?" Murong Shen's expression turned cold in an instant, and he suddenly stepped forward, grabbed Ye Zhaoqing's collar, looked straight into her eyes and said, "I'm interrogating you now! It's not you interrogating me! Please!" Don't get this confused!"

Following his sudden movement, the lantern that he had been holding in his hand for lighting fell to the ground, instantly burning with flames, illuminating the place as brightly as daytime, but the next moment, it returned to calm.

In this flickering light and shadow, the expression on Murong Shen's face appeared a bit ferocious.He suddenly stretched out his hand and waved it behind him, and a lantern suddenly lit up on the tree trunk behind the two of them.

The dark night was restored to light in an instant.

Seeing this scene, Ye Zhaoqing couldn't help but feel a little scared, but she never showed timidity on her face, and even deliberately showed a sneer on her face: "Master Tai Tuo, why can't you speak well if you have something to say, and you have to be rough? You Do you think you can really kill me? As for the threat, the little girl has never known what it is since she was a child!"

As her voice fell to the ground, Murong Shen's expression couldn't help changing. He didn't need to look down to know that the silver needle in Ye Zhaoqing's hand was pointing at his big hole in his waist. As long as he dared to make any abnormal movements, the silver needle would definitely be merciless Stab into your body!
it is good!Really good job!

Murong Shen felt a surge of anger, narrowed his eyes, and said coldly: "So, are you going to tell me?"

"I'm just dissatisfied with Master Taifu's behavior, it's really rude!" Ye Zhaoqing said in a cool tone: "Break into a house in the middle of the night to take people away, if you disagree with me, you will strangle them to death, and threaten their life and death, Master Taifu , The things you did don’t match your status at all, do they?”

"It seems that you have ignored my words. I said that you have no right to ask me questions!" Murong Shenwen gave Ye Zhaoqing a cold look and said; "Isn't it the seat of the Crown Princess that you really want? ? Believe it or not, I just need to say one word, and you will fall from heaven to hell!"

Heaven fell to hell?

It seemed that she had lived like this in her previous life.

"Okay?" Ye Zhaoqing smiled, and said indifferently: "I didn't want to be a crown princess at first, but it was Concubine Rong who forced me to treat His Highness' illness. If Lord Tai Tuo can cure His Highness' illness, Concubine Rong will be the first to drive me away, and your goal will be easily achieved."

Murong Shen saw how calm and breezy she said, and immediately remembered the scene in the carriage when he came up the mountain, and the phrase 'fake marriage' came to his mind again.

It seems that this girl really doesn't care about the position of the crown princess at all!

Really interesting.

"I can't cure Li Yu's illness." He smiled, glanced at Ye Zhaoqing and said, "It seems that you know very well why Concubine Rong wants you to be the Crown Princess. You are a transparent person."

"It's just that my patience is limited. You'd better explain everything clearly before I get angry, otherwise, you may not be able to bear the consequences." Ye Zhaoqing said that he was rude and mean, and Murong Shen tried his best to show himself He was a little gentler, but the words that came out of his mouth were still as sharp as a knife: "Or, do you really think that I can't do anything with that little silver needle in your hand? Stupid!"

Before the words fell to the ground, he shot like lightning, and his wrist flew like a snake. Almost instantly, the silver needle that Ye Zhaoqing was pinching fell on Murong Shen's hand.

In order to prevent Ye Zhaoqing from making another sneak attack, he even snatched away the silver needle that she had hidden in his sleeve.

Being so cautious also shows that he is very afraid of Ye Zhaoqing.

Ye Zhaoqing glanced at Murong Shen in surprise, but he didn't panic, he just said indifferently: "Your Excellency must have heard that I have always been an ominous presence in Ningguohou's Mansion, no one cares about it, and no one cares about it." I like it, if there is any good thing, it will be taken away by the servants of those forces. I have a warm jade bracelet, which I like very much. In order to prevent it from being taken away by others, I took advantage of it while offering incense in the Jokhang Temple , secretly buried in a deserted courtyard, I know that it is the courtyard where Princess Huai used to live."

As Ye Zhaoqing said, he raised his wrist, and the silk blouse slipped down, revealing a wrist as white as jade. On it, a pink and white bracelet glistening with water lay quietly there, very beautiful: "That day I thought I wore it, so I sneaked into the courtyard at night to get it back, but the time interval was too long, I couldn’t remember exactly where it was buried, I only remembered where it was, so I had to search for it, and the result was A jade pendant was accidentally dug out."

"Before I took a closer look, the jade pendant was snatched away by His Royal Highness." Ye Zhaoqing said: "That's the case with the jade pendant."

After hearing this, Murong Shen slowly shook his head: "No, if that jade pendant is not yours, why did you take it out when Li Yu threw it into the flower cage? Don't agree with your temper!"

Ye Zhaoqing smiled indifferently when he heard the words, and then said: "What Tai Tuo said is really funny, isn't that jade pendant belonged to the late Princess Anning? How could it be mine? If it wasn't for His Royal Highness who bullied people too much, I wouldn't have Close to Huahua's cage."

"I didn't say it was peaceful, how would you know?" Murong Shen raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and then looked at Ye Zhaoqing with scrutiny.

"You captured me just now, and the first question you asked was this, Mr. Tai Tuo has such a bad memory!" Ye Zhaoqing said in a cool tone, "If you didn't say it, how would I know?"

After hearing this, Murong Shen lowered his head and thought about it carefully for a moment, and found that he had indeed said that the jade pendant was An Ning, and his expression immediately eased: "Even so! But you still have a lot of suspicions!"

"Then what do you want? I've already explained it, it's up to you whether you believe it or not." Ye Zhaoqing shrugged and said.

Murong Shen looked at her appearance of not being afraid of him at all, and immediately felt that this girl was very courageous.

He raised his lips to reveal a smile, but the smile didn't reach his eyes: "Then the second question, why did Huahua get close to you alone? What method did you use?"

"Master Taifu really likes to joke." Ye Zhaoqing couldn't help showing a sneer on his face after hearing this: "Huahua is not a cat, nor a dog. How bold do you think I am, to dare to fight against a tiger?" Hands and feet on the body? Do I think my life is too long?"

"What you said makes sense." Murong Shen said in a deep voice after hearing the words, "But I still can't explain why Huahua got close to you!"

"I suggest you ask Huahua herself this question." Ye Zhaoqing pursed his lips and smiled, and said, "You can't ask me anything, because I don't know anything at all."

Hearing this, Murong Shen looked at Ye Zhaoqing quietly, and didn't say a word to her answer.

"As for the Fenji Sword, I want to get it purely because I love it. It just so happens that I have this ability." Seeing that he didn't speak, Ye Zhaoqing couldn't help becoming bolder: "Although the capital doesn't like embroidery and loves swords There are very few ladies here, but His Highness cannot conclude that I have ulterior motives."

"Aren't you trying to gain fame?" Murong Shen snorted coldly when he heard the words: "In Fengyang Tower, you defeated Fang Zhilin and even snatched my younger brother's sword. It can be said that your reputation has shaken the capital since then. The one who never looked down on you I'm afraid Ning Guohou wants to take you back because of this? Isn't that what you are doing?"

"Yes!" Ye Zhaoqing answered decisively and calmly this time: "The so-called man is not for himself, and heaven and earth will perish! What's wrong with me wanting to go back to the Hou's mansion? I am also the daughter of the Ye family who is upright and young, so why should I send it to others?" alive?"

"Finally, I'm willing to tell the truth." After hearing this, Murong Shen took a firm look at Ye Zhaoqing, and said, "What you said earlier, I just take it as fart!"

As he said that, he paused and said: "Forget it, I can see it. You won't tell me the truth. I have to investigate slowly by myself. Miss Ye, you'd better hope that you haven't done it." What an evil thing, otherwise, I, Murong Shen, will never let you go!"

After saying this, he gave Ye Zhaoqing a deep look, then turned around and strode away suddenly.

This is muddling through?
Ye Zhaoqing stood there in a daze for a while, until Murong Shen's figure disappeared before her eyes, she realized, and couldn't help shouting loudly: "Hey! Do things have a beginning and an end? Capture me and throw me in the What's going on in this barren grass and forest? How can I go back?"

In the empty night, the only sound was the quacking of crows, without even an echo.

Fortunately, with the lamp on the tree, Ye Zhaoqing didn't feel so scared. She looked at the spot for a long time before she knew the direction to go back to the guest house.

But she just took a step, and the lantern on the tree suddenly went out.

Ye Zhaoqing fell into the darkness in an instant, and a huge fear surged in his heart.She didn't dare to stay any longer, and ran towards the direction of the guest house!

But after running a few steps, her people ran into a wall of people head-on!
