Qi Bao'er couldn't ask any more questions. After all, this had nothing to do with her, right? How could Eunuch Qi pass the secret message to her?
At this moment, kneeling in front of Qi Bao'er was a man in black with his eyes wrapped in black gauze. He answered in a tone that was completely emotionless:
"The blue beauty was seen by the emperor when he left the palace to watch the dragon boat race. She was Xiang Yuan's daughter.
After the emperor saw Lan Meiren, he decreed that night to confer her the title of Beauty.
Nowadays, Beauty Lan is the only one favored in the palace. Although she cannot enter and leave the imperial study at will, the emperor often reviews memorials in her palace."
Oh, Qibaoer understands.
Eunuch Qi is worried that a demon concubine will appear in this dynasty, and that Lan Meiren will follow in the footsteps of the late emperor's noble concubine.
At that time, the late emperor was not on guard against the late emperor's concubine, and would often listen to the late emperor's concubine's opinions on state affairs. It would be fine if the late emperor's concubine was a strange woman with real talents and learning, but the late emperor's concubine was the kind of person who was raised in a boudoir.
There were no ordinary women in the Shen Mansion, which resulted in the late emperor making many wrong decisions in his later years.
It all happened sixty or seventy years ago, and many people may not remember it well, but as a loyal steward around the emperor, no one can forget this matter. Eunuch Qi definitely remembers it, and is always on guard against it.
But, what's the point of telling her this? She can't change the emperor's mind, okay?
After all, she is just a baby girl. Is it possible that she can still care about who the emperor likes?
The man in black seemed to know what Qi Baoer was thinking, "Eunuch Qi said that he has served the emperor all his life, and so far the only person whom the emperor has trusted is the princess. Eunuch Qi hopes that the princess can handle the southern affairs as soon as possible."
Return to Beijing."
——It sounds like she is quite anxious, so anxious that Eunuch Qi does not hesitate to reveal in front of her that he has secret power. It seems that the situation in the palace is not just what Eunuch Qi said in his letter.
Qi Baoer thought she had guessed 80% of the situation, but she never thought that she still guessed too lightly.
That same night, as soon as she lay down after the man in black left, another man in black, also dressed in black, appeared in her room.
This one came in more awkwardly than the previous one. Although he also came in through the window, the previous one jumped in with a light and almost silent figure, while this one rolled in through the window and smelled of blood.
Really, Qi Bao'er sat on the bed and watched with her own eyes as he clumsily opened the window, and then fell unsteadily into the room. After falling in, he rolled several times on the ground, and then he collapsed.
No one noticed the coming and going of the previous one, but this one...
Wang Liu and Wang Qi followed him one after another and jumped into the room. Wang Liu ducked to the man in black and reached out to pick him up; while Wang Qi was already standing by the bed with full vigilance.
"Wait a minute, he is from the palace."
Eunuch Qi trusted her, so Qi Baoer was naturally not prepared to harm Eunuch Qi; Wang Liu and others were all the prince's people, so she did not say they were Eunuch Qi's people, but vaguely said they were people from the palace.
Sure enough, when Wang Liuyi heard what was coming from the palace, he thought it was someone sent by the emperor, so he changed the carry to a hand.
The man in black didn't know where the injury was, but he was already taking in less air and outgoing more air. He could only say, "Save, save the emperor," and then died.
Hiss~
The emperor is in danger?!
Wang Liu and Wang Qi both had their claws numb, but the emperor was in danger, but he sent people all the way to find the princess. What does this mean?
Look at the dead man in black in front of us...
Beijing, how are you?
"Princess Princess, do you want to inform the prince?"
Qi Baoer had a solemn look on her face. In the eyes of Wang Liu and Wang Qi, she was silent for a moment and then said: "I will return to Beijing immediately. The matters in the south will be left to Prince Li. You don't have to follow. Wang Liu, you
Take your people back to the prince immediately.
It seems something has happened in the capital, and it is not safe for the prince to be around him."
The fact is, Qi Baoer was just listening to the man in black talking.
Nothing happened in the capital, but something did happen to the emperor.
And the man in black in front of him was not kidnapped and killed by some force as Wang Liu and Wang Qi imagined. He was just lucky.
Because he had been ordered to find her as quickly as possible, he kept on traveling day and night, and he always walked as straight a path as possible, which required him to frequently cross mountains and forests.
Then, I was attacked by a group of tigers, because I was too tired and only one person...
Wang Liu and Wang Qi looked at each other, with a little struggle in their eyes. What the prince told them at that time was to let them follow Princess Anle and serve Princess Anle as their master from now on.
However, they were originally the prince's people. Between the new master and the old master, they still preferred the prince.
Qi Bao'er didn't give them any more time to struggle. He waved his hand and ordered in a cold voice that showed no resistance: "You will also set off immediately."
"……yes."
After the two left, Qi Bao'er got dressed, turned around and went into Qi Kang'an's house to talk for a while, then disappeared into the night on his silver horse.
Beijing.
Outside Deyuan Restaurant, a fight movie was being staged. Both well-dressed young men were fighting like elementary school chickens, one punching the other and kicking the other. They were either slapping each other in the face or in the lower third.
.
Beside them, the servants from both sides were also busy.
However, there were not many people watching the theater around, and even if passers-by passed by, they would stay away.
In a private room on the third floor of Deyuan Restaurant facing the street, there was a pretty little girl standing on the window looking at the scene below with excitement on her face.
Yes, the little girl looked to be about twelve or thirteen years old, with a cute and cute face, but her eyes were shining when she looked at the nosebleeds and spurting blood below.
Occasionally, he would also let out a low voice with excitement.
"Brother, hit him, yes, say hello in the face."
"Oh, why is it crooked? Face, face, brother, why did you hit him on the shoulder? You can't even see it even though it's bruised. Just hit his face."
"Kick him, kick him, kick him over there, brother."
The maid behind the little girl had already covered her face as if she didn't recognize her, "Miss, that is Lan Guiren's biological brother. The prince beat him in the street and even greeted people in the face. Are you not afraid of the emperor?"
Will you blame the prince?"
"I'm afraid that he is just a fool. It doesn't matter if he has a noble sister in the palace. No matter how noble he is, he is still a concubine. Can the emperor kill my brother because of a concubine?"
As for her brother being punished, that's okay, her brother is thick-skinned anyway.
The little girl didn't deliberately suppress her words. Qi Bao'er, who was next door and also had the window open and looked down, had a hard time not hearing her.
"Who's next door?"
Butler Qi, the only person in the box, also heard the 'rebellious' words coming from next door. Although he had never seen the person next door, it sounded like he meant the younger sister of the prince in the fight below.
"Princess, the two people fighting below are the eldest son of Chun'an, the newly appointed Marquis of Chun'an by the Emperor, and the other is the son of General Zhenxi who has just returned to Beijing."
Then the identity of the little girl next door was revealed, the only legitimate daughter of General Zhenxi, Gu Linghua.
