When Mingwei saw Concubine Pei move out of the window alone, she knew something was wrong.
No matter how ignorant she is, she still knows that every step in the harem is dangerous. With Concubine Pei's situation, there are many things that must not be exceeded.
However, when she thought about it again, she felt strange. Who is Concubine Pei? When the emperor had murderous intentions for Yang Shu, she could remain calm and use the opportunity of slippage to settle the matter. Not only was she clear-minded, but she was also
You are so alert and keen, how can you be easily deceived?
Mingwei was full of questions and decided to take a look before talking.
She followed Concubine Pei all the way out of the back hall, and the farther she walked, the more remote she became. Moreover, she discovered that someone was quietly following Concubine Pei.
As I walked, a burst of smoke came out of my sleeves and turned into a little white snake: "Sir, there is something moving ahead!"
"movement?"
"Well, someone is also walking in this direction." The little white snake stopped for a moment and suddenly ran into the grass, "Wait a moment, I will be back soon."
Soon, the little white snake came back with a man.
Yang Shu strode towards her, beaming with joy: "The moon is sparse and the stars are blowing, and the night breeze is blowing. How can such a lucky girl come out to enjoy the scenery?"
Mingwei patted his forehead: "Speak carefully!"
"Oh." Yang Shu asked her, "Why are you here?"
"What about you? And why?"
"Because of two idiots." Yang Shu curled his lips and laughed again after thinking about it, "I was so happy. I saw the prince leaving the table before, and King Xin also went to change clothes. He followed him out of curiosity. Guess what?
What did you see?"
"What?"
Yang Shu laughed and said, "Originally, the prince walked in front and King Xin followed. The prince got some news and suddenly walked back. King Xin was unprepared and was caught by him. I don't know what the prince's strength is.
I got the wrong ride, so I dragged King Xin to admire the moon. As we were walking, the two of them got into an argument, and they were currently wrestling. Oh, it’s so funny to me, they are the only ones competing for the title of legitimate son, it’s really funny."
Mingwei didn't smile. She looked at the direction Concubine Pei left and asked, "Where are they now?"
Yang Shu looked at her solemn face and was confused. He stretched out his hand and pointed: "Next to the pavilion."
"No!" Mingwei ran away before she had time to explain.
"Hey! What are you doing?" Yang Shu was confused and could only follow him.
Mingwei rushed forward quickly and saw the palace attendant who was secretly following Concubine Pei. She reached out and flicked her hand, hitting the other party's sleeping point before he turned his head. Then he caught up with Concubine Pei and shouted in a low voice: "Empress! Concubine."
Empress!"
Concubine Pei was startled. She turned around and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw it was her.
"Miss Mingqi? Why are you here?"
Then, she saw Yang Shu.
"Shu'er?"
Mingwei grabbed her and said urgently: "My dear, you can't go any further."
Yang Shu was also surprised. He looked at her and then at Concubine Pei.
"What's going on? Why is my aunt here?" He thought for a moment and understood instantly. He was shocked and angry, "Is it Jiang Sheng? Did he lure his aunt here on purpose?"
Concubine Pei was originally in a state of confusion. When she saw Yang Shu, she couldn't help but grab his hand and said, "Shu'er!"
Yang Shu held her hand back and lowered his voice: "Mother, although I don't know why you are here, I am sure that this is a trap. The prince and King Xin are right in front. In such a remote place, the prince and the concubine appeared at the same time...
."
Concubine Pei's face turned pale, and her chaotic mood finally calmed down.
It turned out to be false, and it turned out to be true.
She said, how could he be resurrected...
With her rationality returning, Concubine Pei didn't need their advice to understand: "Since someone deliberately lured me here, the next step is to catch the adulterer. Is Your Majesty right behind?"
Mingwei glanced at the little white snake.
The little white snake turned into smoke and fled into the grass. After a while, it came back and said: "Here he comes, the emperor is here."
Concubine Pei nodded and pushed them away: "I know what to do. You leave quickly, Shu'er, especially you, return to the table as soon as possible. At this time, no one can associate you with this matter.
"
"mother..."
"Quickly! There are secret guards around him. If you get too close, you will be discovered."
"You hurry up and leave." Mingwei shook his cold hand, "I'll watch for you. As long as you stay away, they won't find Xiaobai."
Yang Shu was reluctant to leave, but had no choice. Seeing that the emperor was about to arrive, he could only turn around and leave.
Mingwei then left.
She discovered the secret passage in the palace two days ago. She quietly repaired and covered up the formation in the secret passage in the past two days. At this time, she took advantage of the surrounding woods to hide.
Afterwards, Concubine Pei wandered at the intersection, acting hesitant.
Not long after, the emperor arrived.
...
"No one suspects Shu'er, right?"
"No." Mingwei replied, "When Your Majesty saw the Crown Prince fighting with King Xin, he had already returned to the banquet."
Concubine Pei nodded and breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good. You must not interfere in this matter. That person is stubborn and can only make him dislike the prince."
After a pause, she said again: "What a pity, King Xin will take advantage this time."
She didn't even mention the prince in front of the emperor, and only cried and blamed herself. With the emperor's temperament, she would only get more and more disgusted with the prince.
He was originally dissatisfied with this heir, but now that the prince has caused such a catastrophe, his position as crown prince is in jeopardy. In this way, King Xin can take advantage of the situation and rise up.
Mingwei smiled and said, "Mother, I'm afraid that's not necessarily the case."
"Oh?" Concubine Pei raised her eyebrows with a look of doubt, "Did I miss something?"
Mingwei said: "My dear, think about it, what kind of person is the prince? He is jealous of talents, but also as timid as a mouse. Because of your favor, he has always stayed away from you, for fear of making enemies for himself, so why would he suddenly attack you? And?
, based on your status in the heart of the Holy Emperor, if you want to overthrow you, you need the full strength of the counselors in the East Palace. But do you think this strategy is too crude? If nothing else, he wanted to trick King Xin into going to Wangyue Pavilion, but in the end.
.."
She smiled mockingly: "He messed up even such a simple move. It doesn't look like it was carefully planned. It looks like it was thought up with a slap on the forehead."
After she mentioned this, Concubine Pei also understood: "That's right. What kind of stimulation has the prince received? I have been at peace with him these years, and I have always kept my peace."
"So, I suspect that there is someone behind it who is adding fuel to the fire. You also know that in terms of scheming alone, the prince is no match for King Xin."
Concubine Pei understood: "You mean, King Xin played a role in it, leading the prince to take action in a hurry?"
"That's right!" Mingwei said again, "Have you noticed, there is a doubt in this. Only if we know your true identity, will we think of using King Yongxi's handwriting to lure you there. I can assure you that the prince did not know before
I am afraid that if he suddenly learns about this matter, he will suddenly take action."
With Fu Jin as his spy, they could see what the prince wanted and did.
Comparing the two, it is easy to find that the prince knows something that he did not know before.
If this is really the trick of King Xin, when he pulls out the crown prince, he can attack King Xin at the same time! (To be continued)
