The deeper you go into the back garden, the fewer pedestrians there are on the road and the fewer guards in the palace.
The sky was completely dark. Although a little palace maid in front of Huangpu Yu was holding a lamp, she was walking in front, and the lamp was not too bright, so she could not see clearly what was around her.
Meng Qianxun followed slowly step by step, keeping her eyes slightly lowered, walking much slower than Huangpu Yu.
"You should hurry up, the banquet is about to start." Huang Puyu was a little impatient. He stopped and turned to look at her, urging. He was very angry, but he didn't dare to show it for fear of Meng Qianxun.
will doubt.
"Oh." Meng Qianxun responded softly, slowly raised her head, looked around, and then deliberately said, "Princess, this road doesn't seem to lead to the main hall, it seems to lead to the back garden."
As she spoke, she deliberately frowned slightly, with a look of confusion on her face.
Huangpu Yu was shocked at first, but when he saw Meng Qianxun's puzzled face, as if he was not sure at all, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then said, "Isn't Princess Lu Ben in the palace more knowledgeable than you?
You have only entered the palace a few times, and this is the direction leading to the main hall."
"Really?" Meng Qianxun's brows furrowed even more tightly, "Why do I feel like something is wrong?"
The two of them were standing on the road at this moment and did not continue to move forward. The girl holding the lamp in front also stopped, but she did not come closer and just stood about five meters away from them.
Meng Qianxun knew that the princess wanted to lure her to the back garden, and she also knew that the prince's people must have been ambushing her in the back garden, waiting to kill her.
If they had tied her up and thrown her into the well in the back garden in the middle of the night, she would have been unnoticed. This prince and Meng Ruoxi were really poisonous.
And they chose to let the princess lead her to the back garden, so there would definitely be identifiable features.
The biggest difference between her and the princess is the hairstyle. The princess wears a princess hair with her hair tied up high, but because she was too pressed for time, she didn't dress carefully at all, so her hair was simply pulled back.
This is the easiest place to tell.
In contrast, the difference in clothes is not very big, but the color of the clothes is different. Her clothes are lavender, while the color of the princess's clothes is bright red.
It's just that it's too dark at the moment, so I can't see much difference at all.
Then, she only needs to change her and the princess's hairstyles, and this matter will be much simpler.
When Meng Qianxun looked at the little palace maid holding the lantern in front of her, her eyes flashed slightly, and she secretly took out a thin needle, pointed it at the lantern and shot it.
She always aimed very accurately, and the thin needle flew out. The lantern in the palace maid's hand suddenly fell to the ground, and the fire went out.
It was completely dark now, and we were already close to the back garden. No one else was passing by, and there were no other lights, so it suddenly became pitch black and nothing could be seen.
"What's going on? What did you do? Why did you put out the light?" When the princess saw that the light was put out, she was furious, and then she yelled at the little palace maid.
The little palace maid knew that she had made a mistake. She was so scared that she trembled all over. She squatted down to pick up the lamp on the ground, but the wire was broken and it must not be used.
"Back to the princess, the light cord is broken and can't be used anymore." The little palace maid said tremblingly, her voice as thin as a mosquito's cry. She was obviously very scared. It's no wonder she would be scared. Usually, as long as the palace maid makes a small mistake,
, Huang Puyu beat and scolded the palace maids, and many of them were even beaten to death.
Now that she has made such a big mistake, the princess will definitely not let her go.
"It's useless, why don't you get it done quickly? If you can't get it done, then hurry up and get another lamp." Huangpu Yu was secretly anxious. After all, if there is no light at all, then the prince's people will be gone.
I can't tell which one is her and which one is Meng Qianxun.
If you make a mistake, it could be a big deal.
But what Meng Qianxun wants is this effect.
"Yes, yes, slave, go and get another lamp now." When the maid heard that the princess did not punish her, but just asked her to get another lamp, she responded repeatedly, stood up from the ground, and left quickly.
.
At this moment, only Meng Qianxun and the princess were left. But in the darkness, neither of them could see the other clearly. They could only vaguely see two shadows.
"Princess, why don't we walk forward slowly? In fact, there is moonlight tonight. If you get used to it, you can still see the road. Otherwise, the banquet is about to start and it will be bad if we are late." Meng Qianxun
He said softly to the princess, his voice was extremely gentle and without the slightest hint of defensiveness.
"Let's wait a moment. I am afraid of the dark and dare not leave." The princess was afraid that the prince's people would confuse them, so naturally she would not agree to go forward at this time. After all, the back garden is not far ahead, and the prince
People have been waiting there for a long time.
Meng Qianxun looked toward the back garden through the moonlight, and faintly saw a few figures flashing past in the darkness. It was obvious that he had been delayed for too long and was a little anxious.
"Is the princess really afraid of the dark? Is it just that there is a ghost in her heart?" Meng Qianxun suddenly snorted coldly, and there was a chill in the deep voice that made people tremble. Especially in this darkness, there was a kind of chill that made people tremble.
A creepy feeling.
Huang Puyu was stunned, turned slightly, and looked in her direction, but could not see her expression clearly, and said in shock, "You, what are you talking about?"
"Am I talking nonsense?" Meng Qianxun said coldly again, looking straight at her with a pair of eyes. It was obvious that she couldn't see clearly in the darkness, but Huang Puyu suddenly felt that there was a sharp gaze that seemed to penetrate her.
Got her.
"You don't know what you're talking about?" Huang Puyu broke out in a cold sweat, and his body couldn't help but tremble, but he still managed not to admit it.
"Oh, forget it, let's wait here for the palace maid to bring the lantern." Meng Qianxun did not continue to ask further, but automatically answered the question, as if nothing happened just now.
However, when Huang Puyu heard what she said, she felt even more worried. She was afraid that Meng Qianxun would discover something strange and her plan would fail. She thought that it was relatively remote here anyway and there weren't many people around, so she might as well just leave the prince's body alone.
The man led him away and tied up Meng Qianxun.
Thinking of this, Huang Puyu's face became a little more ruthless, her mouth opened slightly, and she was about to shout, but at that moment, something round suddenly rolled into her mouth.
Before she could react, it had completely melted in her mouth.
Huang Puyu was shocked. She had seen poisoning and other things in the palace. Could it be that Meng Qianxun poisoned her? But at this moment, Meng Qianxun was still some distance away from her, and she didn't notice Meng Qianxun at all just now.
She moved, and she didn't even move at all. How could she be poisoned?
Suddenly, she thought of what Meng Ruoxi said before about Meng Qianxun's sorcery skills, and the princess was so frightened that her whole body trembled like fallen leaves in autumn.
She subconsciously wanted to shout, but she opened her mouth, but no sound came out, not even a weak yak sound.
Huang Puyu was even more scared. Why couldn't she speak? Could it be that she had become mute? It must have been the poison that just melted in her mouth that made her mute.
She did not expect that Meng Qianxun could be poisonous, and she had just been poisoned without even realizing it. It seemed that this woman was really good at black magic.
The more she thought about it, the more frightened she became, and she turned around and wanted to run away.
Meng Qianxun snorted, if you want to leave, it would be that easy.
Since Huang Puyu agreed to harm Meng Ruoxi, don't blame her for being ruthless.
Just when Huang Puyu was about to take a step forward, Meng Qianxun jumped up, moved forward quickly, turned her body around, and easily restrained her.
At this moment, Huang Puyu had his back to her, so he couldn't see her, and in the darkness, he couldn't see anything at all.
Meng Qianxun approached Huang Puyu's ear and whispered something. The princess's body stiffened suddenly, as if she was a little surprised and a little suspicious.
Huang Puyu couldn't scream at the moment and could only struggle desperately, but Meng Qianxun held her tightly and didn't give her a chance to break free.
One of Meng Qianxun's hands clasped her wrist, and the other hand reached for the princess's hair, completely ruining her hairstyle, and all the hair strands were spread out, and then Meng Qianxun tied the princess's hair.
The silk bun was the same hairstyle as hers now.
Although Huang Puyu was impulsive, he was not stupid. He quickly understood what she wanted to do, and he was even more frightened and struggled harder.
Thinking of the words and sounds she just heard, the princess's body trembled even more.
However, how could Meng Qianxun give her such an opportunity? After messing up the princess's hair, he pressed his feet against the princess's legs. The princess felt pain and subconsciously bent her legs and knelt down.
On the ground.
Meng Qianxun stepped hard on the princess with one foot to prevent her from escaping.
And she herself quickly arranged her hairstyle again.
Before the lamp broke, Meng Qianxun had already memorized the princess's hairstyle. Although she didn't have any tools at the moment, it was roughly the same and she could still get it out, not to mention that she couldn't see clearly in the darkness.
After finishing her hair style, Meng Qianxun imitated the princess's voice and shouted, "You guys, come here quickly, I have already caught her." She deliberately lowered her voice, acting like she was afraid of being alarmed.
The way other people look.
The dark figures in the distance obviously heard her voice and moved slightly. They seemed to be hesitant and suspicious and did not come over immediately.
"You dare to disobey my princess's orders. Be careful if I tell the prince, I will deal with you severely." That voice, that tone, including the arrogance and domineeringness, were exactly the same as the princess's.
What's more, when she mentioned the prince deliberately, those people no longer had any doubts and ran over quickly.
"The light just broke, and she wanted to leave. I was afraid that something would go wrong, so I took the opportunity to catch her. Please hurry up and deal with it according to the prince's instructions." Meng Qianxun imitated the princess's voice again and said.
The princess who was stepped on by her was sweating anxiously on her forehead and wanted to explain, but unfortunately she couldn't make a sound at all, and Meng Qianxun was touching her, so she couldn't stand up at all.
"Is she really the person the prince said?" One of the guards was very cautious and cautious, and further confirmed.
"Why, don't you still believe in me? It was me who brought her here just now. She is absolutely right. If you don't believe me, just take a look with a lamp." Meng Qianxun deliberately raised her voice slightly, angrily.
said.
The prince's subordinates were startled when they heard that she was bringing a lamp. The commotion here just now might alert the guards in the palace. If she brought a lamp again, they would most likely be exposed.
"Captain, the prince said that the princess is wearing a princess hair, and Meng Qianxun's hair is simply pulled back. You can tell it even under the moonlight. It shouldn't be wrong. It's not early now. If you don't hurry up,
Please finish what the prince told you, otherwise he will be angry again and punish us." One of the guards said in a low voice.
"Well, what you said makes perfect sense. Not many people knew about this matter." The captain nodded slightly in agreement, and then ordered again, "Tie up Meng Qianxun first, and everything will proceed as planned."
When the other guards heard what the team member said, they moved forward without further identification, and quickly picked up the ropes and sacks prepared in their hands.
