"Thank you, Master Song, for your consideration!"
Song Danqing waved his hands, but what he was thinking about now was how to report to the emperor when he returned!
The two left the room.
"Gu Yanming" lying on the bed quietly opened his eyes. He looked around and when he was sure he was alone, he breathed a sigh of relief. He slowly got up and sighed for a while.
Only a few people know that he is actually the leader of the secret guards, Xu Sheng!
Ever since he was dragged away by the two bastards, Qiangqijihua, and Hua, and sold himself to bury his father, he has acquired a new skill, which is to pretend to be dead or dying! Oh! Too miserable!
He has to lie down every day, unable to move or go out, and has to take care of his urgent needs in a small space. He is almost suffocated to death.
"Squeak!" The door opened!
Xu Sheng was startled and quickly lay down and closed his eyes.
He felt someone push open the door, walk into the room, and approach him quietly.
The smell is wrong, it's not the princess and the others.
He frowned. Was there no one guarding outside? How could they let someone in so easily? He calmed his breathing and tried to make himself look like he was asleep.
Little Changle looked at the person lying on the bed curiously and whispered.
"Are you really sick? Are you dying?"
Seeing that the other party is not speaking.
Little Changle lay on the bed, blinking his eyes, "It's great that you're sick! You don't even have to wake up. I also want to be sick and never wake up!"
Xu Sheng knew that the person coming was Changle, and he breathed a sigh of relief. He was curious. Why did this child come here? Wasn't she with the princess' parents?
"My father is a bad man, I am so sad!" Tears flowed from Changle's eyes.
"But I still have to forgive him, because he is my father!"
Xu Sheng felt sad. He already knew that Su Changfeng was a hypocrite. Poor Changle was so young, but she had to bear so many things that she shouldn't have to bear.
"Squeak!" The door was pushed open again, and Lin walked in cautiously. Seeing Changle here, she breathed a sigh of relief, but also felt distressed. She stepped forward and patted Changle gently.
"Changle, let's leave here! Otherwise we will disturb your brother-in-law's rest!"
When Lin saw Gu Yanming like this, tears welled up in her eyes. But she knew that no one was allowed to stay here, so she pulled Changle to leave.
Changle dodged Lin's hand and shook his head.
"I, I...I understand."
Changle stood up, glanced at Lin, then lowered his head and walked out.
Seeing her like this, Lin felt sad for a while. She glanced at Gu Yanming on the bed again, wiped her tears, and walked out quickly.
Ji Hua was guarding the door, and when he saw Chang Le and Lin coming out one after the other, he immediately understood what was going on.
Changle has become much quieter recently. He is no longer afraid of people like before, but seems to have grown up overnight. He has his own ideas and thoughts.
Jihua has already recognized Lin as her mother, and Lin is also very kind to her and Qiangqi. Seeing Lin's sad look, Jihua is also very sad. She holds Lin's hand and says.
"Mom, let's take our time with Sister Changle. Don't rush!"
Lin nodded. The three of them left together.
Dao Qin walked out from the darkness, looked around, pushed open the door and walked into the house.
There was no other way. The princess also assigned him a task, which was to entertain Xu Sheng when he was not busy! He thought about the jokes he had just learned and planned to tell them to Xu Sheng later!
It was dark soon.
Ye Xinran brought back a lot of meat, and had Daoqin stew it before. When it was time for dinner, everyone in the palace, including the officers and soldiers, except for the people in Yiyongbo's mansion, had a large piece of fat and lean braised meat to eat.
The people in Yiyongbo Mansion didn't even dare to get angry. They were in a very awkward situation now. They had no money and no power. They wanted to go back to Yanjing City, but they didn't know how to go back. Even if they went back, they didn't know if their previous mansion could be returned to them.
At night, everyone rested, and Ye Xinran practiced alone. Dao Qin watched from a distance. By the way, he was thinking about what to say to Xu Sheng tomorrow.
Jianshu was guarding outside Xu Sheng's room.
In the middle of the night, Ye Xinran opened her eyes with a smile on her face. Her internal energy finally reached the fifth level!
Smelling the stench, she said hello to Daoqin and flew out of the post station. She found a secluded place and entered the space.
After taking a good shower and changing into clean clothes, I left the space and headed to the post station.
As soon as I arrived at the entrance of the post station, I saw fire.
Ye Xinran sneered in her heart, as expected, how could it be so easy.
Not far from the gate of the post station, there were crowds of people, and many of them were holding wooden barrels, going back and forth to put out the fire.
Jianshu was standing behind the crowd. Seeing Ye Xinran coming back, he quickly stepped forward and bowed.
"Princess! Fortunately, we made arrangements in advance. No one has died so far. Two soldiers and one person from the side branch of the palace were injured. All of them were minor injuries."
Ye Xinran nodded.
"Who is the other party? Have you caught him alive?"
"There are four survivors. They took the hallucinogenic drugs given by the princess and confessed everything!" Jianshu put away his usual playful smile and said seriously.
"It's King Wensheng's people!"
After saying that, he frowned and said, "There is another one who is from the Great Jin Dynasty. He pretended to be a man of King Wensheng, but under the hallucinogenic drugs, he couldn't resist and told the truth. He should want to kidnap the old prince and take him to the Great Jin Dynasty as a hostage!"
Ye Xinran narrowed her eyes, "Then can we find out who in the Jin Dynasty ordered this?"
"The Great Jin's King of Dongxiao, Tuoba Yan!"
"Lock up this big golden man alone! Hand the remaining men in black to Song Danqing later.
Also, quickly pass the information you find to the prince.
We must also strengthen the protection of the old prince! Since they want to kidnap the old prince, it won’t be just this time. "
Jianshu nodded.
"Where are Song Danqing and the eldest princess?" Ye Xinran asked.
"They are all in the house arranged by the garrison, not far from here. They will probably be here soon."
"Well, let's put on a show for them later!"
Ye Xinran quickly walked to the old princess and the old prince. Xu Sheng was placed on the bed with his eyes closed. Dao Qin and several secret guards dressed as officers and soldiers were guarding him. No one else could get close.
Everyone in the palace was horrified. They were all thankful that no one died tonight, only a few people were slightly injured.
The old princess nodded at Ye Xinran. The eye contact between the two was only for a moment and no one noticed.
"Sister-in-law, are you okay?" Gu Yanxin looked nervous, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Ye Xinran was fine. "I don't know why a fire broke out out of nowhere, ah!"
"It's late at night, everyone is here, I don't know what sister-in-law is doing, she only shows up now!" Gu Yanlin said sarcastically. "Stay in the middle of the night..."
The old princess' eyes darkened and she was about to say something.
Ye Xinran raised his hand directly.
"Pa!" A slap hit him on the face. Almost knocked out one of his teeth!
"Sister-in-law, you, you actually hit me?" Gu Yanlin never expected that Ye Xinran would hit him directly. After all, he was the second son of the palace!
"I am a first-rank princess, and you are just a commoner. How dare you act so rudely in front of me? I used to do that because you are the prince's younger brother! But now I am very unhappy!"
