Chapter 158 Watching the Show from the Beam

The Third Prince thought he was the only one who left the classroom, so he didn't pay attention to anyone else and slipped out the back door.

But he didn't know.

In the next room, Qiao Niannian finished writing the plan, stretched her waist, and planned to take a rest, and then she saw the Third Prince leaving through the back door.

She raised her eyebrows.

Thinking of the evil spirit she felt last night, Qiao Niannian followed him directly.

The Third Prince sneaked all the way, perfectly avoiding all the guards, and came to the East Palace.

Qiao Niannian followed behind, and she was not surprised at all that the Third Prince could come to the East Palace smoothly.

As a prince, and an ambitious prince, he naturally knew the layout of the guards in the palace.

But what did Xia Zeqi do in the East Palace?

And why aren't any of the guards of the East Palace here?

Just when Qiao Niannian was puzzled, the third prince climbed over the wall. Qiao Niannian thought about it, and directly used the force to climb onto the roof.

She watched the third prince enter Xia Rongyu's room, hide something in the room, and then leave quickly.

Qiao Niannian took a look at the location where the things were hidden, and left without staying for long.

On the way back, she happened to run into Xia Rongyu.

A gentle smile naturally hung on Xia Rongyu's distant face.

His smile was different from Xia Zeqi's. One was a smile that could make mountains and rivers pale, and the other was a cold smile.

Xia Rongyu's smile made people feel comfortable, while Xia Zeqi's smile made people feel awkward.

"Niannian, why are you here?"

He clearly remembered that the little girl was going to sort out the teaching process.

Qiao Niannian's eyes fell on Xia Rongyu's face, and she found that his luck was somewhat affected.

He was quite normal in the morning, why did he change in the afternoon?

Could it be the item that the third prince just placed in the East Palace?

Thinking of this, Qiao Niannian spoke directly.

"I want to go to the East Palace with you."

Xia Rongyu agreed and wanted to take Qiao Niannian back to the East Palace.

At this time, the attendant behind him suddenly spoke: "Your Highness, the old tutor specifically instructed you to concentrate on writing articles."

Xia Rongyu's expression was calm: "It's no problem."

After that, he looked at Qiao Niannian lovingly: "Let's go!"

Today the old tutor came over and talked to him about an article that was very profound. He asked him to write some comments on the article and he would come to check it tomorrow.

This was not a difficult task for Xia Rongyu, so he was able to come back so quickly.

As for the academy, he actually didn't have to go or not. After all, he had the old tutor and the tutor to teach him personally, and the prince's resources were already higher than others.

There was no need to go to the academy for classes.

The prince only went there occasionally in the past, and the purpose was to force his sister to study.

These two days, he went there consecutively.

It was just because Qiao Niannian had to go to the academy for classes, and he was afraid that she would be bullied, so he went together.

In the end, he found that this girl would not be bullied at all.

Not only that, she also became a teacher.

He doesn't have to go there anymore in the future. He

originally wanted to go see Qiao Niannian, but he didn't go because he was afraid of affecting Qiao Niannian.

Unexpectedly, he ran into Qiao Niannian here when he came back.

Xia Rongyu took her back.

He dismissed his attendants, and there were only the two of them in the study.

When leaving, the servant that Xia Rongyu had spoken to looked inside, then closed the door and left.

After the door was closed, Qiao Niannian suddenly spoke.

"Brother Crown Prince, the fifth servant following on your left, is he your personal bodyguard?"

Xia Rongyu shook his head: "No, he serves in the yard. A servant was injured while doing something before, so a new one was promoted to take his place."

Qiao Niannian nodded.

"No wonder, that man is the Third Prince's man."

Xia Rongyu's expression remained unchanged, and it seemed that he had known that the other party was the Third Prince's man.

That's right.

Xia Rongyu was so smart, it was not surprising that he knew.

"It just so happens that I just saw a good show."

Xia Rongyu looked at Qiao Niannian and raised his eyebrows: "What good show?"

As for the servant being the Third Prince's man, he knew that the Third Prince had been trying hard to place people around him and had been doing small tricks.

He thought the other party was too clingy, so he let the man who did odd jobs in the yard go.

The Third Prince immediately sent someone over.

Xia Rongyu agreed, and the people in the yard were put in.

As for the servant sent in by the Third Prince, everyone in the yard knew about it, and every time the other party tried to get some words, he would tell him the truth as soon as he finished speaking.

From time to time, he let people leak some news out to reassure the Third Prince.

These two days, the Third Prince suddenly became anxious.

He hurt the people who served him, and the people he sent showed their enthusiasm, so he wanted to know what Xia Zeqi was going to do, so he kept the people by his side.

There was no action in the past two days, so he didn't take it to heart.

But Qiao Niannian's meaning just now clearly showed that action had been taken.

Xia Rongyu called the secret guard in and asked what happened in the East Palace today.

The secret guard immediately explained everything in detail.

"Today, a concubine fell into the water, and there happened to be no one around her. The guards of the East Palace were sent to rescue her." "

Later, the third prince came and entered the master's bedroom. But after a cup of tea, he came out again."

"At that time, Miss Qiao followed the third prince, went up to the roof, and left after the third prince left."

Qiao Niannian: ...

No.

She saw that there was no one in the East Palace, and the Third Prince had risked his life, so she followed him in. She

thought that no one knew about her and the Third Prince, but she didn't expect that the secret guards saw it all.

Mingming, when she entered the yard, she didn't feel any breath.

Xia Rongyu probably saw Qiao Niannian's curiosity, and smiled and said.

"The secret guards have a magic weapon given by the national teacher to gather breath. As long as they don't show up on their own, no one will find them."

"In addition to the magic weapon, they also know a kind of practice, which can also achieve the effect of the magic weapon."

"It's just that the practice has a time limit. On weekdays, they use magic weapons to suppress it."

After speaking, he looked at the secret guards.

"Go to my bedroom and look for something the Third Prince left behind!"

The secret guard responded and turned away.

Qiao Niannian was full of admiration.

The East Palace was as solid as a rock, and the Third Prince was so cunning that he couldn't beat Xia Rongyu at all.

If Xia Rongyu hadn't died, the throne would never have gone to the Third Prince.

Moreover, she discovered a problem, that is, the Grand Master was particularly concerned about Xia Rongyu.

But the Grand Master she had heard of before was clearly a person who didn't care about the mundane world, so why was he always thinking about Xia Rongyu now!

Qiao Niannian was confused and just asked.

Xia Rongyu explained.

"The Imperial Master once made a prediction about the fate of the Great Xia Dynasty."

"He said that the fate of the Great Xia Dynasty is linked to me. If I die, the Great Xia Dynasty will also perish."

"So if he saves me, he is saving the Great Xia Dynasty."

It is for this reason that the Imperial Master is so active.
