The Imperial Guard’s Revenge

Ruyilou, an ordinary restaurant, would never have the guts to do such a thing. Fu Tingzhou put his fingers on the screen, and sure enough, he felt the traces of splicing.

It seems that it was Lu Heng who knew in advance the time and place of Guo Xun's banquet. He first manipulated the screen here, and then asked Wang Yanqing to pretend to be Le Ji and enter the venue early to play music. Fu Tingzhou, Guo Xun and others can hear the music when they enter the door. They are like the vases on the wooden shelf and the calligraphy and paintings on the walls. They are the decoration of this room. No one will pay too much attention to the decorations.

After that, Lu Heng deliberately put some fake smoke to induce Fu Tingzhou to go out, and then took the opportunity to let Le Ji retreat, and Wang Yanqing could leave quietly. Even those Jin Yiwei chasing and blocking in the restaurant were deliberately done by Lu Heng, the purpose was to intensify Fu Tingzhou's suspicion and delay time for the real Wang Yanqing.

Fu Tingzhou was very remorseful. It turned out that he was only one step away from Qingqing, but he didn't notice it. He hated Lu Heng for being cunning, but in the end, Fu Tingzhou didn't care enough about Wang Yanqing.

If he had known Wang Yanqing for many years and invested more energy by her side, how could he not hear Wang Yanqing's piano sound? Every time Lu Heng succeeded, it was like a slap in the face of Fu Tingzhou, telling him how much he neglected her.

Fu Tingzhou stopped inside the screen and didn't come out for a long time. Guo Xun noticed something was wrong and asked loudly, "What's wrong?"

Fu Tingzhou was woken up, he quickly calmed down, and walked out from behind the screen with a blank face: "It's okay, I'll take a look."

There is no one behind the screen, what's so beautiful? Guo Xun stared at Fu Tingzhou suspiciously. There was no one else here, and Guo Xun stopped covering it up and asked directly, "Is there something between you and Lu Heng that you are hiding from me?"

Fu Tingzhou flatly denied: "No."

He denied it so quickly, and Guo Xun became more and more unbelievable. Guo Xun said calmly: "That's good. The war is imminent, you should know what is most important?"

Fu Tingzhou clenched his fist tightly and finally said, "I understand."

Chapter 81

Wang Yanqing took the carriage home, and Lingxi Lingluan was ready. After seeing Wang Yanqing, he immediately served her and took off Le Ji's clothes.

Lingxi asked: "Girl, the water is ready, do you want to take a bath?"

Wang Yanqing said, "I'll just do it myself. You guys go and get rid of the clothes first."

Lingxi Lingluan said yes, left something to bathe indoors, and bowed to leave. Because Wang Yanqing was going to pretend to be Le Ji, she sprinkled a lot of fragrance powder on her body. She endured it all the way, and now she finally returned to her home. She quickly soaked in water and washed away the fragrance powder and the smell of the restaurant.

Wang Yanqing was immersed in the water, her hair was draped behind her casually, only her slender and graceful shoulders were exposed. In the mist, her skin was like a jade bib, and the water droplets could not hang on it at all.

Wang Yanqing splashed the water on his arm with his hand, thinking about what happened just now. She only learned in the afternoon that she was going to pretend to be Le Ji, and she only had time to practice two pieces. After she remembered how to play the qin, she was taken to the restaurant. When she went there, there was already a woman in the room. The other party was wearing Le Ji's clothes, so she was not surprised to see her. She brought Wang Yanqing a set of clothes, and carefully explained to Wang Yanqing how to play the piano for a while, and what to do if someone asked.

The other party's tone was calm and steady, as if he had experienced it many times. Wang Yanqing didn't dare to think that this was Jin Yiwei's disguise, or that he was originally a spy of Jin Yiwei.

Ruyi Building is known as the first floor of the capital. Naturally, he knows the taboos of dignitaries and their relatives, so he would not ask Le Nu to serve him at will. Especially for such a high-level guest as Marquis Wuding, the owner of Ruyi Building must be cautious and choose a woman he can trust to play music for the honored guest.

Wang Yanqing is a stranger. If the other woman is also a stranger, it will be difficult to gain the trust of the owner of Ruyi Building.

When Guo Xun and the others first entered the room, Wang Yanqing was very nervous, for fear of being called out. Fortunately, the three men were busy talking about court affairs, and no one paid attention to her behind the screen. Not long after Lu Heng came, Wang Yanqing's heart was completely put down, and only then did he have the heart to observe the performance of the people in the room.

The piece was specially arranged, and the pipa was the main force. Wang Yanqing only needed to match the sound of the pipa in certain passages, and plucked the strings softly at other times to join in the fun. The subsequent plan also went very smoothly. Fu Tingzhou and Guo Xun left one after another, and Lu Heng was able to speak to Xia Wenjin alone. Sitting behind the treated screen, Wang Yanqing clearly saw all of Xia Wenjin's expressions.

Lu Heng refused to change his seat after entering the box. The most important point was the seat number. Guo Xun sat on the main seat, Xia Wenjin sat on the left, Fu Tingzhou sat on the right, and Lu Heng sat on the bottom seat. The screen is located on the right side of the box, facing Xia Wenjin, and Wang Yanqing can see it clearly when he looks up. While Lu Heng and Xia Wenjin were talking, Wang Yanqing hid behind and observed quietly. Later, after Lu Heng finished the question, he made a secret conversation and sent Wang Yanqing away.

The whole process was natural, and Xia Wenjin had no doubts at all. Wang Yanqing didn't know what happened next. After she went out, she was immediately escorted to the side door of Ruyi Building. There was already a carriage waiting for her outside. The road was cleaned up by Jin Yiwei in advance, and Wang Yanqing didn't even knock a single stone, so he went back to Lu's house smoothly.

Everything went surprisingly well, and none of the situations they rehearsed happened. Wang Yanqing pondered for a while in the water, and felt that the water was a little cold, so she got up with her clothes on.
