The princess is beautiful and Ziye

Chapter 175 Two in One
Xie Shuhui led Xicha and ran back to the yard, avoiding people, wiped the tears on her face, and showed a smile that was bound to win.

"Miss, can our plan come true?"

Xicha asked confusedly.

"Why can't it be done? With Zhao Wenjin's temperament, knowing that Xie Tinglan is going to kill her, he was so angry."

Xie Shuhui brushed off the tea leaves floating on the surface of the tea, and said slowly: "Just arrange the people, and everything will go according to plan."

A few days later at night, Yang Mei sneaked in through the mountain gate and went straight to Zhao Wenjin's residence.

Zhao Wenjin's room was still lit with a small lamp, she stretched her neck nervously and looked out, until she saw Yang Mei's figure, she immediately got up and opened the door.

"It's back, how is it?"

Yang Mei gasped and said: "Miss, don't worry, miss, the slaves are all arranged, arranged!"

On the other side, Xicha took off her hood in Xie Shuhui's room and said, "Miss, everything is done according to your instructions."

Xie Shuhui smiled in satisfaction, "The day after tomorrow is the day to go down the mountain, and tomorrow night I will ruin Xie Tinglan's reputation."

She sneered, poured herself a cup of tea, and said, "Then Zhao Wenjin is such a softie, such a great opportunity, he only did such a trivial thing, no wonder he has been a prince for so many years. no result."

Xicha carefully lifted the teapot away, slandering in his heart that the Lord of Changle County was afraid that his deeds would be exposed, and there was still room for redemption, but he did not expect that there would be Xie Shuhui waiting behind him, and Xie Shuhui had Zhao Wenjin standing in front of her, so naturally she was not afraid at all. How ruthless.

Xie Tinglan knew nothing about the coming disaster, she was still reading Fu Pingye's letter by the lamp.

She twitched her mouth helplessly, Fu Pingye was already on his way back to Beijing, and the two of them would meet each other in a few days, so he wrote a letter to herself.

Yuxiu came in from the outside, changed a brighter lamp according to her instructions, and said hesitantly: "Miss, go to bed early, I believe we will see it tomorrow. There will be a Dharma meeting in the temple tomorrow, so don't you have to get up early to help?" Well, if this continues, Miss Ming'er will have a headache when she wakes up."

"Go to bed right away." Xie Tinglan had already read the letter, she was just hesitating, whether or not to give a symbolic reply to His Highness the Crown Prince in such a short time.

It's just that Yuxiu next to her was anxious, Xie Tinglan couldn't do anything about being tortured by her, so she had to put the letter away and rest on the couch.

The next day, the bell of Huijue Temple rang early, and Xie Tinglan woke up from her sleep, and hurriedly washed and tidied up.

Just in time for the Dharma Assembly Day, many people at the foot of the mountain are offering incense and worshiping the Buddha today, and there is a solemn scene in the Buddhist temple.

Xie Tinglan helped tidy up the Buddhist hall, arranged the altars, stood with the Xie family and the monks in the temple for a day under the scorching sun, and presented the handwritten Buddhist scriptures in the temple to the pilgrims. When it was closed, Xie Tinglan was so exhausted that he could barely raise his hands.

Zhao Wenjin fished in the troubled waters, and her spirits were as good as hell. Seeing Xie Tinglan's tired eyes, she snickered in her heart.

Soon after nightfall, several panicked voices rang out in the temple: "Come quickly! The back mountain is on fire! Come quickly and put out the fire!"

Xie Tinglan had already rested, but was awakened by the firelight coming in from under the window, sat up in a daze, and called Yuxiu to come in.

Yuxiu slept in the outer room and woke up earlier than Xie Tinglan. She tied her belt and said, "It's okay, miss. I heard that it's the back mountain. Now the sky is dry and things are dry, so it's easy to catch fire. The servant saw that there were already many warriors. The monk put out the fire with a bucket, so he should be fine."

Just as we were talking, another group of monks ran past the wall, and the voice in the conversation was very anxious: "We need to call more people to put out the fire! The back of the mountain is full of grass and trees. The fire spreads very fast, and if it cannot be contained, it will burn to the top of the mountain." Already!"

"I'm going to call a few more senior brothers over!"

Xie Tinglan's sleepiness had passed, she frowned, and said to Yuxiu: "Let the servant who came with us follow the monk to fight the fire."

There are quite a few monks and pilgrims staying temporarily in Huijue Temple. If the fire is really uncontrollable and burns up, it will be fine if the mountain temple cannot be kept. If this group of people cannot escape, it will really be doomed.

Yuxiu nodded immediately, "My servant will go right away!"

Not long after Yuxiu left, Xie Tinglan called Shen Jiu over, "Did Sansi come here too? You mixed in with those people and went to fight the fire together."

Shen Jiu clasped her fists in response, "Yes, miss!"

He wanted to leave, but when he walked to the screen, he stopped for a moment, turned his head and said, "All the subordinates leave, that young lady..."

"It will be fine, this is in the temple." Xie Tinglan said so, but his fingertips touched the sleeve arrow placed under the pillow.

Shen Jiu didn't dare to disobey Xie Tinglan's order, so she had to hurry to put out the fire, thinking that the sooner the fire could be extinguished, the sooner she could come back to protect the young lady.

There was a commotion outside the temple, Xie Tinglan couldn't sleep anymore, got up and changed his clothes, and planned to go out to see the situation.

Who knew that at this moment, she heard something moving in the direction of the rear window with sharp ears.

She retreated vigilantly behind the screen, held her breath and pretended not to wake up, and stared wide-eyed in the dark to observe the movement through the rear window.

The man was also careful, and after prying open the window, he quietly pushed it open.

Xie Tinglan listened for a while, but no one came in. After a while, a pipe was inserted.

Xie Tinglan thought it was not good.

She looked around, walked quickly to the side of the couch, picked up the teapot, and soaked the silk handkerchief in the teapot to get wet.

Then he took off his outer robe two or three times, went to bed and pulled the quilt to his shoulders, facing the inner wall, covering his mouth and nose with a wet silk handkerchief.

Smoke spread in the house.

Afraid that it would be useless, Xie Tinglan covered his mouth and nose while holding his breath as much as possible, and pressed his hand on the firing switch of the sleeve arrow.

I don't know how much time passed, the misty smoke gradually dispersed, the man made some noise outside the window, and hearing that the house was silent, he turned into the house through the window openly.

He looked around, and finally found his way inside.

Seeing that the person on the couch was motionless, he showed a sinister smile.

"It's so easy..."

The man walked to the side of the couch, Xie Tinglan closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep, ready to subdue the intruder immediately.

The man couldn't hold back the smug smile that was about to succeed, and stretched his hand to Xie Tinglan's shoulder, intending to pull off the brocade quilt on her body.

"Bam—"

"what!!"

Xie Tinglan opened his eyes suddenly, sat up and looked behind him, and then his pupils constricted in shock from the scene in front of him.

"Fu, Fu Pingye——"

The man in front of him with a violent expression like a god descending into the world is not Fu Pingye.

How could he be here!
Fu Pingye's sudden appearance made Xie Tinglan stunned for a long time, until he was called back to his senses by a scream, and the room was instantly filled with bloody smell.

Xie Tinglan blinked, and was about to take a look at what Fu Pingye had done to her, so she put a cloth over her head to block her view.

Fu Pingye's hoarse voice was still cold, he pulled Xie Tinglan from the bed under the cloak, and comforted him softly: "It's okay, don't be afraid."

Xie Tinglan swallowed, trying to explain that she was not afraid at all, but there was a violent heartbeat in her ears.

Fu Pingye's hand on her waist also trembled slightly, whether it was from anger or fear.

But combined with this heartbeat, he was probably afraid.

Xie Tinglan pursed her lips, and let him carry herself out of the room, and placed her on a chair in the living room.

After a while, she silently put embroidered shoes on her feet.

Xie Tinglan moved his ankle uncomfortably.

Fortunately, she went to bed without socks.

The inability to see clearly made Xie Tinglan uncomfortable, but she sat obediently without moving, and said, "Why are you here?"

"Come to pick you up."

After Fu Pingye finished speaking, he glanced at her room with hostility in his eyes, and said in a deep voice, "Where's the guard by your side?"

"The back mountain is gone, I asked them to help put out the fire. You just came, do you know how the fire is going?"

"..."

"I saw a mountain fire when I went up the mountain, and I asked the people accompanying me to rescue it. I came here only after the fire improved."

In fact, he saw a familiar face in the crowd, seeing that it was the guard beside Xie Tinglan, he was a little panicked, so he came all the way.

Unexpectedly, I saw a broken window bolt and a pipe used to blow smoke in the backyard.

Fu Pingye tried his best to restrain the lesson in his tone, and said to Xie Tinglan: "Next time, don't remove all the guards around you, you understand?"

Xie Tinglan nodded obediently.

Ask: "What did you do to him? Don't let him die. I still want to ask who made him harm me."

Fu Pingye was expressionless, "He's not dead, just fainted. We'll investigate this matter after the mountain fire is extinguished and everyone returns."

He had some guesses in his mind, and the most suspicious one was the one who pretended to go up to the mountain to practice meditation.

Just as he was thinking, someone pulled his sleeves.

He looked over and saw the person in front of him wearing his cloak, and asked him obediently below: "Can you take the cloak away? I'm not afraid of seeing blood."

Fu Pingye was stabbed in the heart by her cuteness, and the anger in his heart gradually calmed down a little.

He said: "The smell is not good, I will take you to another room to rest, and then pick it up."

Xie Tinglan followed Fu Pingye out of the wing, and after walking a few steps, she heard Yuxiu's voice.

Yuxiu called the lady all the way and ran into the yard, only to find a tall stranger standing in the yard, the light was too dark, Yuxiu didn't recognize it was Fu Pingye, but she knew Xie Tinglan very well. Even though the person he was holding was only half of his body, Yuxiu recognized that it was Xie Tinglan.

She screamed and was about to beat Fu Pingye with a lantern in her hand, shouting: "What a disciple! Let go of our lady!"

Yuxiu didn't dare to publicize it, for fear of ruining Xie Tinglan's reputation, she anxiously looked forward to Shen Jiu's return soon.

When Xie Tinglan heard the movement, she quickly stopped in front of Fu Pingye, fearing that Yuxiu, a tigress, would accidentally hurt the prince.

"It's okay, Xiu'er, he is..."

"What's going on here!"

It was still dark before Xie Tinglan's eyes, but he could tell from the voice that it was Wei Shi.

It was Wei Shi who came, and she was accompanied by Xie Zhen and Xie Shuhui. The three of them were all neatly dressed, probably because they were worried that the mountain fire would not stop.

Wei Shi's eyes were dark, he looked at Yuxiu and said, "What are you making a fuss about so late? The mountain fire has gone out?"

Yuxiu put down the lantern, "It's already turned off..."

"Then why are you still standing here, don't hurry up..."

Wei Shi swept aside, startled, took a few steps back and stammered, "You, who are you!"

All the servants went to put out the fire and hadn't come back yet. Worried that it was a villain, Wei hid behind the nanny.

Xie Shuhui squinted her eyes to see Fu Pingye's face clearly, but the night was too dark, she could only see the outline.

Could it be that it was a coincidence that the beggar took Xie Tinglan out?
She was about to open her mouth to say something, when there was a noise outside the courtyard, and Zhao Wenjin's voice came clearly:

"Hurry up! Don't let the thief get away!"

Xie Tinglan listened, and suddenly thought of something, she immediately tore off the cloak on her head, and put her backhand on Fu Pingye.

Fearing that he would not cooperate, Xie Tinglan leaned on his shoulder and said in a low voice: "The person who seeks someone to harm me is probably here. I am sorry for your highness to pretend to be a disciple and lure the snake out of the hole."

Fu Pingye froze in place, the fragrance under the cloak and the temperature on his body made him dizzy for a while, and his breathing became heavier.

Xie Tinglan didn't know His Royal Highness's nervous reaction, she pretended to be very nervous and grabbed the cloak tightly.

Zhao Wenjin led the people into the courtyard quickly.

A large area of ​​torches illuminated the yard, and Xie Tinglan's face was also revealed.

Zhao Wenjin ordered people to light the lanterns on the porch, and was about to order them to 'catch the rape' when he glanced out of the corner of his eye and saw Xie Tinglan standing in the yard.

Zhao Wenjin's eyes widened, and his heart skipped a beat.

Could it be that the plan failed? !
Seeing the embarrassment on Xie Tinglan's face, his clothes and hair bun were messed up, and there was another figure at hand, covered by a cloak...

Zhao Wenjin was overjoyed.

Wei stepped forward suspiciously, and said, "Mr. Changle County, the mountain fire has just been extinguished, and everyone is going to rest. Why are you bringing so many people here?"

Zhao Wenjin saluted her and said, "Madam Xie, don't blame me. In fact, when I was at the gate of the courtyard just now, I happened to see a person running here in a panic. I also smelled kerosene on him. Smell. This wild anger is too weird, I'm afraid someone did it on purpose, and I'm catching this thief!"

Xie Shuhui said: "Did the county gentleman see the thief and enter our yard?"

"Exactly!"

"Are you all alright!"

Zhao Wenjin pretended to care about Wei Shi and Xie Shuhui, and then immediately turned his finger on Xie Tinglan.

Xie Tinglan was doing a full set of plays, and at this moment he was pretending to be guilty and wanted to drag Fu Pingye back to his room.

It was at this moment that Zhao Wenjin looked over, "Mr. Jinyang County! Where are you going!"

After she finished speaking, she couldn't wait to ask, "Eh? Who is this that Jinyang County Lord is pulling? Is it Jinyang County Lord's maid? No, he is so tall, he must be a man!"

"How can the county lord slander our young lady!"

Yuxiu was very clever, seeing the interaction between Xie Tinglan and Fu Pingye, and thinking about the letter, she had a guess in her mind.

It's just that she couldn't tolerate the impatience of His Royal Highness, so she rushed out to act together: "This man, this man is just a bodyguard! He accidentally burned his face in a mountain fire, so he covered it!"

Xie Tinglan didn't say a word, looking very guilty with lowered eyes.

Zhao Wenjin sneered, "If you want to make it up, you have to find a suitable reason. Why didn't I know that someone's face was hurt when fighting the fire just now? Even if it was hurt, what does it have to do with your lady? She doesn't need to be so nervous. He took the cloak to deliberately cover the person's face, and took the opportunity to run away!"

Zhao Wenjin was very angry at his dantian, and angrily reprimanded: "Xie Tinglan! You are so brave! You have an engagement with His Royal Highness, and you dare to take the opportunity to mess around!"

Zhao Wenjin strode forward and pulled the cloak away.
