I was divorced because I got pregnant during the lean years, so I went back to my parents’ home and

After chasing for a while, the man in black flashed to the gate of a yard.

The man in black seemed to have known that someone was following him.

Just as Ji Xiaobei was about to step into the yard, the man swung the knife at Ji Xiaobei.

At the same time, the man felt a chill on his neck...

He looked down and saw a dagger flashing with cold light against his neck, the blade embedded in his skin.

"Who are you? Why are you following me?"

The man asked coldly.

Ji Xiaobei felt that the voice was somewhat familiar.

She raised her head and looked at the face. It was the good-looking guard beside Princess Qing. Last time at the inn, when Princess Qing was injured, it was this man who begged Huang Po to see her.

Ji Xiaobei sneered and said, "You were the one who begged Doctor Huang to treat your master in the inn behind the Anzhou government office, weren't you?"

The man was stunned and put away the knife in his hand.

Ji Xiaobei also put away the dagger that was on his neck.

"You attacked Prince Qing in the middle of the night. If you are discovered, you will be beheaded!" said Ji Xiaobei.

Lang Ning said calmly, as if ready to die: "I'll die! Prince Qing is doing evil, and Heaven will not tolerate it!"

Ji Xiaobei didn't know that the evil things he mentioned had several meanings.

But Ji Xiaobei knew that this man knew many secrets of Prince Qing.

"Are you Prince Qing's secret guard?" Ji Xiaobei asked.

"Are you a relative of Mr. Fu?" Lang Ning asked.

Ji Xiaobei nodded.

Lang Ning also nodded.

"Go around this courtyard and pass a rockery. There is a jujube tree at the gate of the courtyard. That is Prince Qing's courtyard. Maybe you can hear some unexpected news..."

After saying this, Lang Ning flew away.

Ji Xiaobei: Hey, wait a minute, what do you mean?

Ji Xiaobei pondered for a while. He mentioned Fu Jichang. Could it be...

Ji Xiaobei didn't dare to delay for a moment. He walked around the yard, but didn't find any rockery...nor did he find any jujube trees.

Damn it, I'm lost again...

Ji Xiaobei pulled the scarf up again, leaving only his eyes, and walked forward.

After walking around for a long time, I finally met a servant walking hurriedly with a food box in his hand.

A servant came over and asked, "Brother Zhang, where are you going so late?"

The servant said, "Hey, there are guests in Prince Qing's study, and he asked them to prepare wine and food. I was just about to send them over..."

Ji Xiaobei was delighted and followed the servant.

Ji Xiaobei followed the servant for a short distance and arrived at a remote courtyard.

Ji Xiaobei: Prince Qing lives in such a remote place?

Ji Xiaobei just stepped into the yard when he stepped on something with a "whoosh" sound...

The servant turned around suddenly, but before he could scream, Ji Xiaobei slapped the back of his neck, and the servant fell to the ground with a thud.

Ji Xiaobei took off his scarf, put on the servant's fur hat, and then took off the servant's cotton coat and put it on.

The boy is very tall, and the fit is very good.

She put her clothes in the cold storage.

Ji Xiaobei dragged the servant behind the jujube tree, tied him up, stuffed some rotten leaves into his mouth, then took a deep breath and walked into the house carrying the food box.

I knocked on the door, but there was no movement from inside.

After a while, I heard a man say, "It's the delivery of wine and food!"

"Come in!" Prince Qing said.

Ji Xiaobei: Prince Qing, who just harassed the little girl, is back so soon?

In other words, the place where Prince Qing was attacked just now is very close to here...

Without time to think, Ji Xiaobei pushed the door open and went in.

A gust of cold wind blew in.

There was a herbal smell in the room.

There was no one in the room, and there was a shadowy figure swaying behind the screen.

Ji Xiaobei sniffed and said respectfully: "Prince Qing, the wine and food are here!"

"Put it there, close the door and leave quickly, it's too cold!" Prince Qing's cold voice came from behind the screen.

"Second brother, how did you get injured like this?"

"Don't mention it. He was kicked by a donkey when he went out... If I catch him, I will tear him into pieces..."

……

Ji Xiaobei put the food on the table, turned around and left, closing the door.

She was waiting at the door with a lunch box.

She had already thought it through. If she was discovered, she would say that she was afraid Prince Qing would have other instructions.

The noise inside has become quieter and can no longer be heard.

Who was the man who just spoke?

It’s so late, they must be plotting something!

Ji Xiaobei thought about it, took some pastries from the cold storage, gently pushed the door and went back in.

"Second brother, is father really in poor health?"

"I can't lie to you. We have only been in the palace for a short time, and Queen Zhao must know about it. I know a lot about you. From now on, we two brothers will work together. If the eldest brother wants to restore the crown prince, he is dreaming..."

"Second brother, I will listen to you. During the New Year, the soldiers guarding the city gates will be less vigilant. Do we really have to take action at that time?"

said the man.

"No, on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, father will go to the Fuling Temple to pray for blessings. You will arrange the guards who will accompany him. We will have to make careful plans at that time..." Prince Qing laughed cunningly.

"Second brother, if it fails, then we will be..." the man was terrified.

"Royal brother, you can't accomplish anything great if you are timid. What you and I have done, once exposed, privately organizing an army, colluding with external forces, smuggling salt and iron, which one is not a capital crime. If we act in advance, we may still have a chance to survive, otherwise..."

Hearing this, Ji Xiaobei shuddered.

Oh my god, this bastard is trying to usurp the throne.

Ji Xiaobei almost dropped the cake in his hand.

I don't know when a big black cat came in and meowed at the food and wine on the table...

Ji Xiaobei was afraid of disturbing the old man, so he walked out...

“Swish! Bang…”

A sharp knife was inserted into the door panel, trembling...

Ji Xiaobei turned his head to take a look, and it was only half an inch away from his ear: I was scared to death, luckily I dodged quickly...

"Who?" Prince Qing roared.

Ji Xiaobei raised his foot and stepped on the big black cat's tail: Meow, with a howl, the big black cat jumped onto the table.

A dish was knocked off the table.

Ji Xiaobei took advantage of the chaos to go out, and covered his pounding heart.

I thought to myself: The person behind the screen has such skillful knife skills, luckily he didn’t aim!

Ji Xiaobei heard from Fu Jichang that the Prince of Wei was the eldest prince and also the deposed crown prince.

The second son is Prince Qing, the third son is Prince An, and the fourth son is Prince Yongding.

The person speaking inside was definitely not Prince Yongding, so it could only be Prince An.

Ji Xiaobei didn't dare to delay and walked out.

We met two maids and a woman coming towards us.

Ji Xiaobei: Oh my god, it’s such a mess in Prince Qing’s Mansion!

She just felt that the woman's walking posture was somewhat familiar.

She hid behind a large rock nearby and listened carefully to the voice. It was the princess's sister, Zhao Mu.

They went towards Prince Qing's courtyard.

Ji Xiaobei: The Qing Palace is such a mess! Really such a mess!

Does the princess know?

Hey!

She really sympathized with the princess.

After several contacts with the princess, I found that she is a little arrogant. However, as a member of the royal family, everyone is arrogant, and this is not a problem.

Other places are also okay.
