"Your Majesty." Jiuqi opened the door and walked in gently. Inside, Bailiqi was writing something on rice paper with a brush in his hand.
He didn't even raise his head when he heard Jiuqi's voice, "What's the matter?"
Jiuqi took out the small bamboo tube and handed it over respectfully, "We have news from the Jiang family."
Baili Qi's hand paused, then he put down the brush and took the bamboo tube, opened the paper, scanned the contents on it and lit it.
The paper turned into ashes. Jiuqi was a little curious. Jiang had not contacted him for a long time. What useful news could he convey this time?
"Where are the people sent to the Prime Minister's Mansion?" Baili Qi asked.
Jiuqi replied: "They are all around the palace, but my subordinates are worried about Mu Xuan, and there is also Mu Qi.
Don’t dare to get too close.”
Bailiyou must have sent someone to watch secretly. Bailiqi's eyes narrowed slightly, "Without my king's orders, everyone will stay put."
Now is not the opportunity to take action. He cannot use his own people, otherwise once exposed, his father will definitely hold him accountable.
"I obey my orders." Jiuqi clasped his fists.
Baili Qi stared at the bamboo tube in his hand thoughtfully, he had to borrow a knife to kill someone.
The information given by Jiang cannot be said to be very important, but it can still be used.
"Which of those rich ladies has a problem with Mu Qingyan?" He suddenly asked.
Jiu Qi thought for a while and quickly thought of someone, "As far as my subordinates know, the Fourth Miss of the Prime Minister's Mansion doesn't seem to like Miss Mu very much, but Jiang Xingge has a very good relationship with Miss Mu."
Miss Mu's identity is there, and there are many people who are envious and jealous of her, but the only one who dares to show it openly is the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Fourth Miss? Baili Qi couldn't remember it for a moment. He knew about Jiang Xingge, but he didn't seem to have any impression of this Fourth Miss.
Catching his master's confused look, Jiuqi immediately said, "That's Jiang Wan, the one who threatened to challenge Miss Mu at the garden party."
Baili Qi sneered, "So it's her." The girl who plays the piano is tall and pretty, but not as good as her sister Jiang Xingge.
Jiuqi lowered his voice, "Your Majesty, my subordinates heard that Jiang Wan's brother Jiang Ye has always wanted to drag the eldest son of the Jiang family into trouble. Do you think... is it possible?" Take advantage of it a little.
"Ha" he has seen many people like this. After all, the prime minister's position is also a hot spot. There are only two sons of Prime Minister Jiang. Jiang Ye is a concubine, so he will definitely not be able to get his turn.
"You go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to meet with him and explore his tone first. If you can use it, that will be easy."
One Jiang Wan and the other Jiang Ye, although I don’t know what their brains are like, they can be used as shields.
He is very confident, and he is the best at dealing with this kind of people. "Please don't worry, Your Majesty." As long as you give him a little benefit, the fish will take the bait.
Baili Qi stood up and walked to the door, a dark light flashed in his eyes. Mu Qingyan stayed in the house and couldn't come out. He couldn't find a place to start even if he wanted to.
You should think of something.
Seeing that he was worried, Jiuqi stepped forward and said, "What worries does the prince have? Jiuqi is willing to share the worries for the prince."
Baili Qi glanced at him and said, "I know you are loyal, but how can you enter the Mu family at will?"
Since the last time he went to the Prime Minister's Mansion, the old man had tightened his grip. Although he couldn't see it from the outside, he knew that there were probably many secret guards in the courtyard.
He didn't think that the old fox Mu Sheng would be so obedient. He definitely had more than a hundred secret guards in private.
Jiuqi rolled his eyes and suggested: "Since she can't get in, why doesn't the prince lead her out?"
Baili Qi rolled her eyes at him and said coldly: "Do you think Mu Qingyan will be obedient when I invite her?"
She is no longer what she used to be, and now she wishes she could stay far away from him.
"The prince can't attract him, but what if he is replaced by a noble concubine?"
Being reminded by Jiu Qi, Baili Qi suddenly laughed, patted Jiu Qi on the shoulder with satisfaction, and praised: "Why didn't I think of this?"
He couldn't scream, but the same could not be said for his mother and concubine.
"Go down, I want to go to the palace." Now that you have thought of it, do it immediately!
"Subordinate, please prepare the carriage right now." Jiuqi immediately went to prepare.
"No, just prepare a horse."
Jiuqi was stunned and said hesitantly: "But riding horses is not allowed in the palace." Even the prince is not allowed.
Baili Qi looked at him coldly and asked, "Is it okay to just sit in a sedan?"
Jiuqi knew that it was unnecessary. The prince wanted to ride a horse just because he wanted to go faster. "It's because my subordinates are stupid."
"What are you doing standing there in a daze? Go quickly!"
Baili Qi frowned. Actually, there was something that he had been unhappy about for a long time. Although his father gave him a mansion, he did not have his own fiefdom in the capital.
Although Bailijin also didn't have it, as the prince Bailiyou, he had his own fief. Not only could he live in the palace, but he could also return to his fief at any time.
The rights he has are almost half rights.
His father gave him so much real power when he was still in power, so he can be reassured.
Thinking about it, Baili Qi's face became more and more gloomy. His father was really not partial to Bailiyou. Even the Imperial Master praised him.
Isn't it just because he is the eldest son?
——In Ronghua Palace, Concubine Rong was leaning on the concubine's couch. The maid next to her was fanning herself, and she was gently rubbing her face with jade. Her face was delicate and her posture was lazy.
The eunuch next to her entered the room, saluted to her, and then said: "Your Majesty, the Second Highness is here."
Concubine Rong raised her eyes and replied slowly: "Let him come in."
Baili Qi entered the room and bowed first, "My son, please give my regards to my mother and concubine."
"Why did you suddenly come here? Although the Holy Emperor allows you to come into the palace to visit me at will, it is better to come as little as possible to avoid making him unhappy," she said quietly, without getting up. The imperial concubine was very arrogant.
Baili Qi's eyes dimmed, "I would like to ask my mother and concubine to help me do something for me."
Concubine Rong stopped massaging her hand, stood up and sat upright, a little curious, "Tell me about it?"
Baili Qi glanced at the people present, and Concubine Rong lazily raised her hand, "You all go down."
Except for the aunt who was serving her, everyone else left one after another.
After seeing no one else, Baili Qi revealed his purpose, "I want to ask my mother and concubine to lure Mu Qingyan out."
Concubine Rong glanced at him without any surprise in her eyes. From the moment he said he wanted to help, she guessed that it was related to the girl from the Mu family.
She got up from the imperial concubine's couch, walked to the table and sat down, then motioned for him to sit down too.
The aunt beside her poured the tea and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, please have some tea."
"Last time she made you embarrassed, made you look bad several times, and even embarrassed me in front of the Holy Master. Why are you still bothering her?
She is not the only woman in the capital, but the mother-in-law thinks that the daughter of the prime minister's house is not bad. If you win her, the prime minister will naturally side with you."
