Chapter 881: Clever and Stupid

Throwing yourself into the net? Whose snare is it? ”

Qingxiu gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, and told all his guesses about the prince: "When Your Majesty ordered the slave maid to leave the palace, although the reason was not clearly stated, the slave maid guessed that it was because of His Royal Highness the Prince, if there is a chance in the future, His Royal Highness and the Lord will definitely be able to see the difference between him when they see him!"

In Feng Changqi's eyes, the prince has always been the idle prince who only thinks about his own princess, how much can he change if he changes?

"What the hell is wrong with him, Prince?"

Qingxiu sighed and said, "His Royal Highness the Prince is no longer like himself. On weekdays, he avoids most of the court affairs, and he will never take the initiative to step forward, let alone take care of the affairs of the entire Meng Liguo...... But the current His Royal Highness has changed very completely. He not only governs the entire capital, but even rules the whole country, and the soldiers and jade seals are all in his hands, and he is like a different person. ”

No matter how much a person changes, there is always no way to change his nature, otherwise there will be no such thing as being easy to change and his nature is difficult to change. The idle prince on weekdays suddenly became a powerful minister with great power, and Bai Huan specially told her not to return to the palace......

Bai Qingyu suddenly guessed a possibility: "Could it be that the current imperial uncle is not the imperial uncle himself at all?" Instead, it's a pretense? ”

This kind of thing has happened before, so Feng Changqi doesn't dare to ignore it.

Qingxiu nodded vigorously: "The slave maid also thinks so in her heart, for some reason, she didn't make it clear to Your Majesty back then, and after Your Majesty explained the slave maid's itinerary, he let the slave and maid leave the palace early......"

The nameless junior sister before, that is, Nangong Zhuoran, the master of the Xuanyin Sect, had done this kind of thing, and it was not impossible for it to happen again. Thinking of this, Feng Changqi became more and more concerned about Bai Huan's life safety: "Since you can leave the palace, what about A-Niang?" Why didn't she just come out with you? ”

It's not that Qingxiu hasn't persuaded this kind of thing, but unfortunately she can't persuade her: "Your Majesty personally said that she wants to live and die with the country, as a monarch, no matter what happens in the Forbidden City, she will not leave."

Feng Changqi closed his eyes in despair.

At this time, she was like duckweed in the water, and when she heard that Bai Huan was in a dangerous situation, she was completely disoriented, and could only move with the current.

"Master, what should I do now......" Before this time, the only person Feng Changqi could trust was Yu Wuhope.

Yu Wuwang could understand her current mood, and patted her on the back lightly, before turning his head and continuing to ask: "His Royal Highness the Prince may be dropped by someone, so His Majesty's health is deteriorating, does it have anything to do with him?"

Qingxiu nodded vigorously: "Half a month ago, His Royal Highness the Prince suddenly brought a doctor into the palace, saying that this doctor is the best at treating hidden diseases, and his medical skills are even more superb than his nameless predecessors, so he invited her into the palace to treat His Majesty's illness, and His Majesty's condition only deteriorated after drinking new medicine!" What's more, His Majesty was unconscious a few days ago, and it was the slave maid who took the initiative to stop the medicine before she recovered. ”

It seems that this 'prince' has gradually revealed his claws and fangs, and Feng Changqi can only pray that Bai Huan can be safe in the palace now, and he can last until he returns to the palace.

The capital of Mengli Kingdom, in the imperial palace.

The imperial study was brightly lit, and the guards and officials stood at their posts, all of them waiting for fear of upsetting the one in the imperial study.

Since taking over the affairs of Meng Liguo, His Royal Highness the Prince's life has been getting worse and worse, last time there was a maid who didn't understand the rules, because she accidentally collided with the prince, she was dragged out and beaten to death with a stick on the same day, until now, there are still blood stains in the place where the dead man died!

An attendant whispered, "Do you think that His Highness has changed a lot recently?"

"Heh, His Highness has changed a lot, his current appearance is like two people from before, if it weren't for the fact that his face is still the same as before, I would have to suspect that His Highness is not His Highness."

"It's weird......"

"Alright, don't talk about that." One of the chamberlains cautiously glanced in the direction of the imperial study, and said with a worried face, "Maybe His Highness's temperament has changed dramatically because of his busy affairs recently, so let's not talk nonsense about small people like us!" Your Highness and Your Majesty's affairs, which one of our little people can put their beaks? Obediently do our part. ”

Not long after the two of them finished whispering, there was a sound of footsteps not far away, and after a while, a figure appeared in the sight of the two.

Without saying a word, the two stepped forward to stop: "The imperial study is heavy, but it is not a place to come and go at will!"

The palace maid nodded again and again, and Qingxiu's face showed a touch of eagerness: "The slave knows that you can't come and go here at will, but the slave and maid can't help it!" Please also ask the two adults to be accommodating, let the slave and maid in, the slave and maid have something important to report to His Highness. ”

The two chamberlains looked at each other.

The little palace maid in front of them, they have actually seen it, Bai Huan does not like extravagance and waste, not only is she more frugal in life, but even there are not many palace people around her, and there are not a few cronies, except for Qingxiu, whose name is relatively loud, this little palace maid is one of Bai Huan's henchmen. She hurriedly ran over there, didn't she really have something important to report?

The two attendants did not dare to delay, one was outside, and the other was entering the door to report.

The prince, who was reviewing the folds in the imperial study, heard that the matter was related to Bai Huan, and without saying a word, he let the maid enter the door to report.

"Your Highness, Qingxiu is gone!" The maid fell to her knees.

"Qingxiu?" The prince raised his eyebrows, and only remembered who this person was after a while, she was the closest confidant to Bai Huan's side, and when he went to see Bai Huan a few days ago, he also talked to her. The prince was unhurried and apparently did not take the matter seriously.

"A good person, how can he say that he can't see it? There are high walls on all sides, and there are forbidden troops guarding the palace inside and outside the palace, how can she, a weak woman, leave the palace quietly? Isn't it like he has a pair of wings and sent people to search around, maybe he is hiding in a corner of the palace now. ”

It's just a palace maid, and the prince doesn't care.

But the maid who came to report stubbornly said: "I have searched everywhere, but I have not seen her whereabouts, and the slaves and maids who are close to her on weekdays have also asked one by one, and they all said that they do not know...... One of the strangest things is His Majesty's attitude. Your Royal Highness, you know, there are not many cronies around Your Majesty, except for a few slaves and maids, it is Qingxiu, on weekdays, Your Majesty has to summon Qingxiu if he has anything to do, but for some reason in the past two days, she didn't see Qingxiu and she didn't ask, as if she had expected it a long time ago......"

The prince abruptly stood up from his position.

If there was just a palace maid missing, he wouldn't care too much, but if Bai Huan used an unusual method to send people away, it would be more troublesome, after all, he still has some secrets that must not be passed on outside the palace.

The tangled emotions only appeared on the prince's face for a short time, and in an instant, he had already adjusted his emotions: "Did you see anyone before Qingxiu disappeared?"

The maid wrinkled her brows and thought for a long time, and finally remembered something: "She talked to the internal official of Qin Tianjian in private, and at that time the slave maid had other things to do, so she didn't pay attention to it, and when the slave and maid found out, the internal official had already retreated......"

As soon as she said this, the prince understood.

A cold wind blew from nowhere, and the expression on his face also gave people a gloomy feeling: "It seems that I was too careless." Come on, go and bring the officials of Qin Tianjian here...... No, take him to Huaming Palace. ”

Some things have to be confronted face to face to be interesting.

Outside the half-open window, if you look intently, you can vaguely see the flowers and trees in the imperial garden, purple and red, like a picture scroll in the hands of a famous artist.

Bai Huan remembered that when Feng Changqi and his party left, those flowers and trees had just bloomed, and now a month has passed, and the flourishing flowers are gradually withering, and they are no longer alive before. Now this blooming flower is beautiful, but it gives people a sense of embarrassment that the sun is about to set.

"Ahem......"

Bai Huan coughed softly while looking into the distance, that was the direction of Ling Cheng, in a certain place, maybe the person she cared about the most was nesting in someone's arms, and she might be worried about her mother, but it didn't matter anymore.

Bai Huan spread out his palm and saw that a red plum was blooming on the silk handkerchief, and the blood was slowly flowing along the lines. I guess I won't be able to survive the day when Feng Changqi comes back......

Just as he was thinking, a scream suddenly came from outside the door.

"Your Royal Highness, you can't go in, Your Majesty is still resting, can't-"

"Fuck off."

The voice of persuasion stopped abruptly, but the heavy footsteps were not heard, and the people walked through the courtyard all the way to Bai Huan's bedroom. Bai Huan didn't even have to look back to know who the other party was, and when he told Qingxiu to tell her to leave the palace quickly, Bai Huan thought that the news would reach the ears of the prince, and thought that he would have such a day. I just didn't expect it to come so quickly.

"Your Majesty......"

The prince wanted to do etiquette on the surface, but before he could say a word, Bai Huan gave him a roll of his eyes, and said with a disdainful expression: "You don't need to do superficial work in front of me, I already know that you are not him."

There was a flash of surprise in the prince's eyes, and he touched his cheek, a little regretful: "You can actually see that I thought the mask on my face was good enough."

Bai Huan snorted coldly again: "You are indeed good enough in your leather mask, and you have acted very hard, but unfortunately there are some details that you can't interpret at all."

"Well, it is worthy of Her Majesty Meng Liguo, she is really smart." The man smiled and sighed again, "If Her Royal Highness the Imperial Lady is half as smart as you, it will be troublesome." ”
