When Chu Huaize heard the news that Li Shengyi was entering the palace today, he came over impatiently.
After standing in the cold wind for a while, he thought he had found the wrong place. When he was about to turn around and leave, he saw the door in front of him slowly open.
The moment he saw Li Shengyi, his eyes lit up immediately, "Sister!"
Seeing Little Potato’s red face from the cold, Li Shengyi immediately reached out and pulled him into the house.
When closing the door, he did not forget to imitate what he saw in TV dramas, sticking his head out and looking around outside the door. After confirming that there was no one around, he closed the door.
This scene fell into the eyes of Meng Jiuan, who was sitting not far away. He just thought that his little daughter's vigilance was really cute.
After all, if someone really wanted to eavesdrop, how could that person just stand at the door and wait for someone to catch him?
Smiling and shaking his head, Meng Jiuan stood up and was about to make tea for the twelfth prince when he saw the little potato pounce straight on his little daughter.
Meng Jiuan:!!!
"Twelfth Prince! I have taught you before that a true man can bend and stretch, and shed blood but not tears."
"Disclosing your emotions is a big taboo on the battlefield."
A low scolding voice rang out in the hall.
Chu Huaize hasn't gotten up from Li Shengyi's arms yet.
Suddenly hearing Meng Jiuan's low voice, he was so scared that he trembled all over and stood up in a panic.
Turning around and seeing the tall figure in the hall, he took a deep breath and said through gritted teeth, "Your Highness understands!"
Meng Jiuan nodded. "Shengyi is a girl, still young. If the Twelfth Prince rushes towards her rashly, he might fall."
"The Twelfth Prince wouldn't want to see Sheng Yi fall, would he?"
It has to be said that Meng Jiuan’s words hit Chu Huaize’s heart directly.
He undoubtedly liked Li Shengyi, but when he thought that Li Shengyi would be hurt because of his unintentional behavior, the expression on his little face suddenly fell.
Turning around, he pouted and said to Li Shengyi, "I'm sorry, sister."
When Li Shengyi saw that the little potato who was excited at first had now turned into a sad potato, he immediately raised his hand and patted his shoulder to comfort him, saying that he was fine.
After comforting him, she turned her head and glared at Meng Jiuan.
Chu Huaize is only four years old. What’s the point of asking a four-year-old little potato to know so much?
In response to her, Meng Jiuan blinked innocently again.
Li Shengyi ignored him. She reached out and pulled Chu Huaize over, guiding him to sit down on a chair. "The Twelfth Prince is looking for me. Is there something important?"
Chu Huaize nodded, and after reaching out to take the tea handed to him by Meng Jiuan, a heavy expression suddenly appeared on his little face. "Does Sister know that the fifth brother escaped from the prison last night?"
"And General Meng."
Meng Jiuan nodded, "I understand. I let him go."
Specifically, he pretended not to know that Chu Huaifeng was going to escape from prison, and deliberately turned a blind eye, allowing him to escape from the prison.
After all, with his skills, Chu Huaifeng is no match for him.
If the two of them really met, he would have to hold back and restrain the strength of his fists so that the other party could "escape."
When Chu Huaize heard that Meng Jiuan had deliberately let Chu Huaifeng go, his already large eyes suddenly widened even wider, "Why?"
"He...he was doing that kind of thing with Concubine Su."
Originally, Chu Huaize didn't know about the affair between his fifth brother and Concubine Su.
Both the Crown Prince and Eunuch Fu Hai kept it from him.
If Li Shengyi hadn't come, he wouldn't even be able to get involved in this battle for the throne.
Since the fifth prince has already done such a thing, why did General Meng let him go?
My father said that he would execute my fifth brother at a later date...
Meng Jiuan curled his lips and smiled at the little prince. He casually picked up the teacup at hand, skimmed off the foam in the tea, blew on the tea to cool it down, and took a sip.
Then he pretended to be profound and said, "The Twelfth Prince must have heard of the story of luring the snake out of its hole."
This look...
Qin Songmo, who was far away in the villa, suddenly popped up in Li Shengyi's mind.
Therefore, Meng Jiuan's profoundness was all deliberately imitated. He was a person with a hot temper and was not suitable for pretending to be profound.
Chu Huaize understood everything when he heard the phrase "lure the snake out of its hole".
The light in his eyes returned, and he looked at Meng Jiuan excitedly, "Is this Prime Minister Qin's idea?"
Meng Jiuan paused while holding the tea, and then he tutted softly, "Couldn't it be my idea?"
Chu Huaize shook his head honestly, "General Meng, you are more suitable for fighting in the battlefield. Planning is not suitable for you."
Meng Jiuan, who was exposed, was not annoyed, but looked at him with a smile, "You brat!"
The clear and pleasant laughter of children suddenly rang out in the hall.
As the laughter gradually faded, the corners of Chu Huaize's lips slowly narrowed.
The next moment, he spoke again, "Your Highness, I have come here for another matter, but this matter must also be within Prime Minister Qin's plan."
He raised his head, his bright eyes falling on Li Shengyi and the other two, "Noble Concubine Su is missing."
Su Jinrou had just had a miscarriage and was very weak. For such a grown person to disappear from the palace inexplicably, there must be someone hiding behind the scenes and controlling all this.
"My brother the Crown Prince also said that the imperial physician said that the child in Concubine Su's belly was not lost due to stimulation, but was contaminated by musk or other abortion drugs."
"Crown Prince is very busy, so he asked me to come and ask General Meng if this is also your plan?"
Chu Huaize's last words seemed to be spoken to Meng Jiuan, but in fact his eyes were always on Li Shengyi.
