Concubine, don't flirt: His Royal Highness is hiding something

"Where is the person? His Highness was still inside just now..." The servant's legs trembled slightly, and he almost fell to the ground.

"Don't spread the news that His Highness has left the East Palace." Chu Peiyu felt bad, turned around and asked him eagerly, and left in a hurry.

"yes..."

The servant lowered his head and agreed in a low voice.

At that time, Nangong Yan was wearing a black golden hook cloak, and had already rode his horse to Yanjing City. Beside him, he quietly followed the hidden guards in the Eastern Palace.

Thinking of what the hidden guard said, he became angry, and after sitting in Chenghe Hall for a while, the anger in his heart became more and more uncontrollable.

After Yan Shiqing returned to the Proton Mansion, he called Qing Yu and asked him to keep an eye on the situation in Yanjing City, especially the people from West Chu.

Qingyu twitched the corners of his mouth after hearing what he said, but still didn't speak. Seeing his hesitation, Yan Shiqing said, "If you have anything to say, just say it."

"My lord, in the past few days, I have met people from Xichu in the city several times." He nodded slightly, and there was a flash of panic in your eyes.

Yan Shiqing narrowed his eyes, "Are you sure?"

"I'm sure, those people's actions are very covert. Could it be that the concubine Yi warned the son?" I can tell.

Yan Shiqing's eyes sank, and he read carefully.

Qing Yu looked at the movement around him, and said in a low voice, "Master Ning, why don't you go and tell Mr. Ning, after all, many people know about it, so they can take care of you."

He stopped Qing Yu and shook his head, "No, now that the Lin family is making such a fuss in the court hall, there must be people in the court who know about my contacts with the Lin family before. If something happened to them right now, I will Throw yourself into Brother Ning's arms, and you will definitely be gossiped about."

"But, here in Yanjing City, you have no one to rely on..." Qing Yu's sense of panic in his heart became stronger.

"Look at them first to see what they want to do, but don't startle them." Yan Shiqing looked calm and at ease. He never thought of turning back when he got to this point.

"Yes!" Qing Yu hurriedly backed away.

However, Nangong Yan also heard about the plot against Yu Qiqi when he was escorting Yu Qiqi back to Nanzhao and passing through the border of Western Chu.After all the calculations, it was time for Yu Qiqi to return to Yanjing, but there was still no news of her.

After thinking about it, he still went to the East Palace, but this time he sneaked in quietly.

In Yaoguang Hall, there was silence, only Zhaoniang and a few maidservants were guarding, he walked slowly to Zhaoniang, and pulled her into the inner hall, "Bold thief, dare..." Zhaoniang hadn't shouted yet use up.He covered his mouth, and the only sound he could make was "uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...".

"Zhaoniang, it's me."

After seeing that there was no one around in the hall, he let go of his hand.

"Yan Shizi?..."

Surprise flashed across Zhaoniang's face, and she hurriedly stood aside.

"The Crown Princess hasn't come back yet?" His eyes narrowed slightly, falling on her panicked body.

"The Crown Princess was robbed on the way back. Your Highness is distressed and doesn't know how to rescue the Crown Princess." The news of Nangong Yan's going to Western Chu was blocked by Chu Peiyu.

"When did it happen?" Yan Shiqing stretched out his hand and grabbed her arm, with a touch of excitement in his words.

After hesitating for a while, Zhao Niang opened her mouth, "Things during the day..." Her eyes flickered a few times, and she stopped Yan Shiqing, "His Royal Highness will think of a way around this matter, and the son of the world should not risk his life." good."

If Nangong Yan found out that she told Yan Shiqing about Yu Qiqi's being robbed, he would definitely get her down.

"Don't worry, I won't trouble you."

Seeing the worry in her eyes, Yan Shiqing spoke to comfort her and disappeared from the inner hall.

Zhaoniang made up her mind, and then went outside.

It took Nangong Yan less than two days to arrive in Western Chu.Ever since she came back from the polo field that day, Yu Qiqi didn't deliberately avoid Duke Xichu. She didn't know what those people outside thought of her, but he treated her very well here.

After staying in the county prince's mansion for a few days, she almost played for a few days, and A Jian also woke up and followed her all the time, fearing that the prince of Xichu would hurt her.

"Princess, in my opinion, it's really not possible here, let's go quickly." This is the first time she woke up and persuaded Yu Qiqi, she couldn't count it, and Yu Qiqi couldn't count it either. .

"Where to go, there are delicious and fun things here, the king of Xichu County treats us so well, is it possible that we have to go back to Yanjing?"

When she thought of that cold East Palace, she felt chills in her heart.

"Even if we go back to Yanjing, it's better than staying here." A Jian had fought against Wu Lian, and knew what kind of cruel person she was. In this case, the King of West Chu was not much better.

"Since you like Yanjing so much, you can go back by yourself." Yu Qiqi nodded her head vigorously and reprimanded her.

"Princess, maybe he lied to you!" A Jian patted her head helplessly, and continued to go around to persuade her.

Yu Qiqi sat on the edge of the guardrail, throwing the fish food in his hand into the fish pond, "I know, he just wants to use me to deal with Nangong Yan, but I just want to try, will Nangong Yan know?" Come and save me..." Her voice was a little soft, and Ah Jian couldn't hear the rest of the words clearly.

"Then you can't stay here!"

Without saying a word, A Jian took her hand, and she immediately grabbed the guardrail, resisting: "A Jian, you are the person next to me, why did you help Nangong Yan to speak up! You see, I am staying here It's been so many days, but he hasn't heard from him at all, so I won't take the initiative to go back!"

"I didn't speak for him. It's because the servant is the princess's side, so I can't just watch the princess jump into the fire pit! You and I don't know what the king of Xichu County is. What if one day he turns his face and refuses to recognize anyone?" , I want to put you to death, and it will be too late for the servants to regret..."

A Jian pulled very hard, and Yu Qiqi still couldn't escape her full body force in the end, but just as the two of them walked to the side of the path, they ran into King Xichu who was walking towards him, "Seventh Princess, Miss A Jian , where is this going?"

Yu Qiqi's ferocious face immediately returned to calm, she patted Ah Jian's tightly grasped hand, and raised the corner of her lips to explain to him, "A Jian said that he saw an egret in the back garden of your house, If you insist on taking me to have a look, no, they are dragging me there desperately."

"Oh, is that so? It seems that the feng shui in my palace is good, and it can attract egrets." After listening, King Xichu also smiled.

A Jian lowered her head, with a bitter face, she didn't know what kind of posture she should use to face the king of Xichu who suddenly appeared and grabbed him again.

"I think it's the Seventh Princess' good fortune. That's why the egret flew to our mansion, Duke, why don't you go and see it with the Seventh Princess."

The attendant standing beside the king of Xichu County was very good at talking, and a few words eased the slightly awkward atmosphere in front of him.

The king of Xichu narrowed his long and narrow eyes, with a smile still on his face. He was very satisfied with what the servant said, and nodded immediately, "It just so happens that this king has nothing to do, so I will let you join in the fun."

"county..."

Yu Qiqi wanted to stop her, but it was too late.

"Your Majesty, it took a long time for the slave to find the princess. If the egret had already flown away, the Duke should not blame the slave."

A Jian hurriedly explained while following behind.

"Hey, don't worry, I won't blame Miss A Jian." In front of Yu Qiqi, he was almost smiling, and the guards beside him thought he was a different person.

"Yes, the King of the County has a lot." Yu Qiqi apologized.

"Come."

King Xichu turned his head and held out his hand to her.

"what?"

Yu Qiqi was startled, not quite understanding what he meant.

"The road ahead is too winding, and it's all trails. I'm afraid it's not easy for you to walk." He explained casually, seemingly meaningless.

"No, there's no need, A Jian is protecting me." The back of her ears turned red, and she waved at him.

As if he didn't hear her, he held her hand tightly in his palm, "Come on, don't mind."

A Jian's complexion immediately changed, she gritted her teeth, and suddenly felt that Nangong Yan was better than this Xichu County King in front of her, at least he wouldn't act like this to a woman who was already married to her husband.

The sword in her hand was about to lose its grip.

"That's good." Seeing that A Jian was about to draw his sword, Yu Qiqi replied casually, and then lightly patted A Jian's wrist.Only then did she let go of the hand holding the hilt of the sword.

Nangong Yan, who was lying on the edge of the wall, was about to explode!

But just as he popped his head, he saw the scene just now. Yan Shiqing had never been so excessive in front of him. How dare he, an elderly king of Xichu County? !

Thinking of the disgusting things that Concubine Yi was about to do to him last time, he felt uneasy, and the king of Xichu's treatment of Yu Qiqi made him even more uneasy.

It's really worthy of being a family, so devoid of conscience, they can do things that violate the rules and ethics!

But he was angry, he didn't have the desire to rescue Yu Qiqi immediately, he wanted to see how far this woman could betray him? !

The irritability in the heart became more intense.

"Your Highness, don't you want to make a move?" After they left, the hidden guard who was hiding in the dark asked him in a low voice.

As soon as they arrived in West Chu City, Nangong Yan frantically asked them to explore the way to the Prince's Mansion in West Chu County. After finally finding out the secret passages of the mansion, he lost the urge to save people before.

"What are you going to do?! Others are here, and your lives are not enough!" He came here this time to quietly rescue Yu Qiqi. I got a few sharp and fast ones.

Several hidden guards who had been carefully trained by him for many years said that they couldn't figure out what he was thinking.It was fine when he just entered the mansion, but after seeing the Crown Princess, it became even worse.

Moreover, the old man's vinegar is obviously unnecessary.

However, they only dared to think about it in their hearts, and the next moment, they hid in the dark again.

In the back garden, there is no egret that A Jian mentioned, but there is a magpie with colorful feathers flying around the pear tree in the back garden.

"Magpie, come down."

The King of Western Chu saw Yu Qiqi's joyful expression.She stretched out her hand to the magpie bouncing on the pear tree. It stopped on a branch, tilted its head, saw him, flew towards him immediately, and landed firmly in his palm.

"Like it?"

He moved his hand and moved it in front of Yu Qiqi.

"I didn't expect there to be such a miraculous bird in the Prince's Mansion." This was the first time Yu Qiqi had seen a bird covered in colorful feathers.

"How is it? Do you like it?" Yang Sheng, king of Xichu County, asked her.

Que'er thought it was the first time he saw them, the eyes on this little head kept rolling, as if trying to see them all clearly.

Seeing its clever appearance, Yu Qiqi nodded immediately.

"It just so happens that it is also missing a master. I will give it to you." A smile appeared in the long and narrow eyes, and the hand of King Xichu moved a little further in front of her.

Yu Qiqi couldn't help but stare, "Give it to me?" Over the past few days, he has sent her a lot of things in a row, and he sent all the strange treasures to her room.

"It was given to you. Besides, it has a destiny with you. It was the first day you came to the mansion. Only the people around this king found it in the mansion. Afterwards, they refused to leave."

Seeing a little hesitation in her eyes, she explained.

"yes?"

Yu Qiqi cried out in surprise, this magpie really liked her, and it was very clever.

"So, you accept it for the king and take good care of it." Her preferences, as early as when she was robbed from the West Chu land, the King of West Chu had already investigated clearly.

"good."

She stretched out her hand, Que'er jumped twice, and jumped into the palm of her hand.

"fool!"

At a glance, it was obvious that he compiled it to fool her, but she couldn't even see it. Nangong Yan hid by the wall, and the irritability and anger in his heart surged up again.

In a daze, Yu Qiqi seemed to hear someone talking, she turned her head to look, but saw nothing, she frowned, then turned her head to tease the magpie in her hand.

Nangong Yan was taken aback by her sudden look, and almost fell off the wall. Fortunately, he was good at light work, so he stabilized his balance.

The hidden guard beside him showed half of his body, saw that he had stabilized his balance, and then disappeared again.

After getting a magpie, Yu Qiqi lost all vigilance and spent half a day in the back garden with King Xichu before returning to her own yard.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, the Crown Princess has gone back." The dark guard reminded him, and he turned his face back, and replied coldly, "My Highness is not blind!"

The dark guard groaned inwardly, he tilted his head just now, but he was about to fall asleep after waiting, and he still refused to admit it.However, he has been on the road for the past two days, and indeed he has not been able to lie down and rest.

However, following him halfway, the hidden guard, who was not afraid of death, couldn't figure it out again, "Your Highness, didn't you say you won't save the Crown Princess? Why wait until she returns. Follow her back to her yard?"

"Why do you care so much?!"

Nangong Yan immediately turned around and scolded him harshly. This was the secret guard who talked the most that he had ever seen. It seemed that he had nothing to do recently and was too slack.

"The subordinates know their mistakes!"

Seeing the anger on his face, he comforted him and quickly admitted his mistake.

As soon as Yu Qiqi walked into the house, before A Jian followed her in, the door was blown by a gust of wind and closed, A Jian was locked outside.

"male..."

As soon as she uttered the first word, someone tapped her acupoints. She didn't even see who that person was, but she was aware of the familiar chill.

The guard who was locked out of the door like her looked at her and secretly regretted, 'It's so pitiful. '

A Jian's eyes moved, but he didn't see the speaker.

"Why are you so rude?" Yu Qiqi thought it was Ah Jian who closed the door, and turned her head away, but as soon as she turned around, there was a strong wind blowing in front of her, she closed her eyes, then opened them again At that time, the person standing in front of him was Nangong Yan.

The magpie in her hand was startled and flew aside with fluttering wings.

"You, what are you doing here?!" After not seeing her for so many days, Yu Qiqi had both resentment and fear in her eyes.

"Are you wishing that I would never come?" Nangong Yan twisted that cold face, frowning so hard that he couldn't wrinkle any more.

"I wish you would never come here. I eat well, sleep well, and have fun here. Why should I go back to that cold East Palace with you?!"

When she didn't see him, she was looking forward to his coming every day.Seeing him now, the anger in her heart was rising again and again.

Nangong Yan approached her little by little, with a cold smile in his deep eyes, "I don't want to go back, I want to stay here, right?"

He thought it was ridiculous, and asked again.

"You'd better go back quickly, or I'll call someone!" Yu Qiqi took a few steps back, her waist touched the edge of the table, her body leaned back slightly, and she grabbed the edge of the table with both hands.

"You are screaming." Nangong Yan is not afraid of her little trick, since he can get in, he can also find a way to get out.

"Come on, come on!"

She really yelled twice, and Nangong Yan covered her mouth. He originally wanted to scare her. If she really called for someone to come over, he had to leave immediately. Moreover, the defense force of King Xichu was only will become stronger and stronger.

"You really scream!"

Nangong Yan lowered his head and scolded her angrily.

Yu Qiqi stared at him like a sharp knife, piercing towards him fiercely.She struggled hard, but he wouldn't let go.

In the end, Nangong Yan said helplessly, "If you promise not to call me, I will let go, and if you don't call me, then nod."

She nodded.

"Let me ask you, what are you doing with his things?" The magpie flew back and forth several times in front of his eyes.

As soon as Yu Qiqi's face changed, he would ask this, which means that when she and the king of Xichu went to the back garden, Nangong Yan had already appeared in the mansion of the king of West Chu, she pouted, "I would like to , can you control it?"

"I've been here for a few days, I can't control you anymore, can I?" Since he appeared until now, she has always been in this irritating look, and the anger in Nangong Yan's heart was drawn out by her for a while. for a while.

"I didn't belong to you anymore."

She was still angry, she had been missing for so many days, but he ignored her.

"I just want to ask you, will you follow me?!" Nangong Yan's patience has been worn down by her, and if he left it in the past, he would not have such a good temper.

"I do not go!"

Yu Qiqi was also angry, at this moment, how could she let go.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuu..." Hearing the conversation inside, Ah Jian yelled a few times, but she couldn't open her mouth, so she could only make some inaudible sounds.

"Okay, then you can stay here, my highness doesn't care about you anymore!" Nangong Yan took a few steps back, keeping a distance from her, and then he smiled again, "It's just right, my highness's There is no shortage of you as a concubine in the East Palace, if you stay here, His Highness can spend time with Wanniang!"

"you!"

Yu Qiqi's tears rolled in her eyes, Nangong Yan made her so angry that her face turned red, her heart hurt so badly that she couldn't say a word.

After leaving a sneer that made her feel cold, Nangong Yan disappeared from her room.

A Jian's acupoints were unlocked by him, she hurried into the room, Yu Qiqi was sitting on the round stool, wrinkled face, extremely wronged.

Her shoulders trembled slightly, and her nose twitched, but no tears fell.

"Princess, why don't you go with His Highness?..." A Jian twisted her sleeves, but still knelt down and asked her.

"Wow!..."

All of a sudden, Yu Qiqi burst into tears, and tears fell down her cheeks.

"He didn't take me to heart at all. Didn't you hear him say just now that you didn't go back, just to please him. I think he planned this robbery. He just doesn't want me to go back." Yu Qiqi's grievances burst out at this moment.

A Jian wiped the sweat from her forehead, and murmured, "But, I think His Highness seems to be angry, so he just said something angry..."

"What's there to be angry about? He hasn't come to me for so many days, is he still reasonable?!" Yu Qiqi glared at her with tears in her eyes.

"In my servant's opinion, it's not that His Highness is not coming. He may have received the news too late, so he came late."

For the first time, Ah Jian found a reason for Nangong Yan.

The anger in Yu Qiqi's eyes dissipated a little, and she was covered with surprise, "It's so good, why did you speak up for him?" She was not like this before, except herself, A Jian hated Nangong Yan the most up.

"No, it's not the servants who are speaking for him. I heard that there are secret passages everywhere in the county palace. Maybe it's His Highness who has already come to Xichu City, but there are too many institutions here, so he has to figure out the route." , so I can come in and save you." The mechanism in the mansion was discovered by A Jian himself, and if it wasn't for someone with a bit of internal strength, they wouldn't be able to see that there are so many mysteries hidden in this seemingly well-behaved county palace.

"However, his attitude just now was not good, he yelled at me as soon as he came up." She carefully recalled Nangong Yan's words and deeds just now.

"You have already become his concubine, and you are still so close to other men. Of course, His Highness is angry."

This point, even the stubborn A Jian can see it.

Yu Qiqi thought about it, and felt that what A Jian said was not unreasonable.

As soon as Nangong Yan left the gate of the Prince's Mansion, Chu Peiyu greeted him, "Your Highness." He rushed over in such a hurry that he was panting even when he spoke.

Nangong Yan was still angry, and only gave him a cold look.

"Your Highness, I have a trick to save the Crown Princess!" Thinking that he was frustrated because he didn't rescue Yu Qiqi, Chu Peiyu added again.
