"Sure enough, he was imprisoned by the old emperor." Bai Jiuxiao obviously took a deep breath.

"Do you know the secret room of Longxiang Palace?" She asked Ning Shiqian.

Ning Shiqian was still thinking about it.

Although he had guessed for a long time, he still had some hopes for the good of his father, but in the end, everything disappointed him.

Hearing Bai Jiuxiao asking himself, he returned to his senses in a daze, and shook his head: "I've never heard of a secret room."

Bai Jiuxiao wasn't surprised either: "If you've heard of it, it won't be called the Chamber of Secrets."

"Well, it's quite difficult to find this secret room. Longxiang Palace is not accessible to ordinary people, especially the inner hall. Even Longxiang Palace's own palace people are not allowed to enter at will." Ning Shiqian said in a solemn tone.

"It's just a matter of planning."

Bai Jiuxiao stared at the prescription on the table for a while, then raised his eyes and looked at Ning Shiqian: "At least, we can let Empress Defei come out to see the sun."

*
In the basement of the Fourth Prince's Mansion, Bai Jiuxiao saw Concubine De for the first time.

"So... a woman disguised as a man?"

At the end, he added with a smile: "Don't get me wrong, my child. I just want to see what a person who can make Liang Yan so caring looks like. After all, I once thought that this son is Tang Seng is reincarnated, and in this life he has nothing to do with love."

Then, Shi Wu and Yuan Zhu's behind-the-scenes people probably didn't see that the picture referred to the chestnut forest, so there was no ghost of her people waiting there.

Seeing Bai Jiuxiao, he took her hand: "My child, I heard that you saved Bengong?"

"I'll check your pulse." She grasped Concubine De's wrist and stroked it with her fingertips.

Bai Jiuxiao was inexplicable: "What's the problem?"

Ning Shiqian couldn't help laughing, let go of her, walked to the side and sat down, spread a new piece of paper, and took the pen with his hand.

Ning Shiqian watched and smiled from the side, and said to Bai Jiuxiao: "The concubine mother is her own, so there is no need to be cautious in front of her."

Dip ink and put pen to paper.

"I told my mother and concubine that you pretended to be Zhuyan because you wanted to find Master Siya, but because of selfishness, I really wanted you to be my fourth concubine." Ning Shiqian said.

Ning Shiqian pursed his lips and remained silent: "Since that's the case, I will not hide from my concubine mother. She is Bai Jiuxiao."

Seeing her puzzled look, Ning Shiqian smiled: "So, what exactly are you painting?"

With picturesque eyebrows in her eyes, Concubine De's pupils narrowed, and she swayed back.

Concubine De nodded, then shook her head again.

"You are." Concubine De's already pale face turned even paler, and she looked at Bai Jiuxiao in disbelief: "Who are you to Bai Jiuxiao?"

Ning Shiqian and Bai Jiuxiao were also very surprised.

Bai Jiuxiao let out an "um" and withdrew his hand.

Bai Jiuxiao was not angry, puffed his mouth, and handed him the pen: "You come."

"Liang Yan told Bengong that Zhuyan is the emperor's secret work. He died on the day of the wedding, and now you are playing the fourth princess. Are you wearing a human skin mask that imitates Zhuyan?"

Bai Jiuxiao didn't make a sound.

Now that he has seen the resemblance to Bai Jiuxiao, if he doesn't tell the truth, his mother and concubine will definitely investigate by herself, so it's better to say it bluntly, so as not to cause any unnecessary corrections.

Although Bai Jiuxiao has long been famous, but before he went to Da Zhao, he had never seen her real face.

Bai Jiuxiao's eyelashes trembled, unexpectedly he said such a sentence suddenly.

"Ghost painting talisman." Ning Shiqian said.

"You painted Longxiang Palace?" Ning Shiqian couldn't believe it.

The corner of his lips curved, he walked over and hugged her from behind: "What to write?"

"Finally there is something you Bai Jiuxiao doesn't know."

Concubine De was still looking at her face.

Bai Jiuxiao: "."

Bai Jiuxiao looked at Ning Shiqian.

"Well," Ning Shiqian nodded: "About her, I will tell my mother and concubine carefully, but mother and concubine must not reveal anything to the outside world. In the eyes of the world, Bai Jiuxiao is already a dead person."

"Can I see your real face?" Concubine De asked.

"She is Bai Jiuxiao?" Concubine De was extremely shocked.

Bai Jiuxiao: "."

As soon as the words came out, I realized that she was not writing, but painting: "I didn't expect that you are not only good at Qi Huang, but also good at Taoism."

When Ning Shiqian came back, he saw Bai Jiuxiao was sitting at the table writing with a brush in his hand, meditating for a while, and writing down a few strokes for a while.

Ning Shiqian quickly supported her with his eyes.

Concubine De nodded with a pale face.

"It doesn't count as acquaintance, but I have seen his portrait. It was many years ago. At that time, General Ling was not dead. I saw it at his house. He said that the boy's name was Bai Jiuxiao, and he was only 16 years old. He is brave and good at fighting, and he is a genius in using soldiers. Under his leadership, Da Zhao's army has never been defeated. At that time, I thought it was so powerful, so I wrote down that face. You are so similar to him, what is the relationship between you two?"

"It's not a matter of omission." Ning Shiqian sweated, and then couldn't help laughing, and let out a low laugh.

She wants to say, is she being reserved?
She is not used to it.

Bai Jiuxiao looked at Ning Shiqian, not knowing how far he and Concubine De had talked about the actual situation.

Seeing that he didn't intend to stop, and remembering that he said just now that the concubine mother is his own, he raised his hand and peeled off the veil from his face.

Especially Ning Shiqian: "My concubine knows Bai Jiuxiao?"

Bai Jiuxiao watched him draw.

"It's because you can't tell that it's Longxiang Palace's problem." Ning Shiqian was really pleased by her: "Your painting skills are really good. I can't compliment you."

*
Ning Shiqian sent Concubine De back to her room, but Bai Jiuxiao knew that the mother and son had something to say, so she didn't accompany her.

He took advantage of the opportunity to peck her lips, and pointed to the unknown thing she drew: "Aren't you just drawing symbols?"

And his mother and concubine have been comatose for many years, let alone seeing him.

After a moment, he nodded: "It's recovering well."

"Longxiang Palace."

Being treated like this for the first time, Bai Jiuxiao was inevitably a little stiff.

"Where is the symbol?"

While speaking, he pulled Bai Jiuxiao and looked her up and down.

He looked down at what he had drawn.

"What Taoism?" Bai Jiuxiao was puzzled and turned to ask him.

She is a very beautiful woman with kind eyebrows and kind eyes, and she looks easy to get along with. Except that she has slept for a long time and doesn't see much sunlight, her complexion is a bit too pale.

Bai Jiuxiao didn't expect his reaction to be so big: "Otherwise? I know there must be many omissions, but I have only been there three times, so I can only draw a picture based on my memory. You can add it later."

It's not the first time she has been laughed at. That time when she painted the chestnut grove in Xishan, Tong Quan thought she was copying the picture of happy plum shoots on the tea pot.

Ning Shiqian suddenly stopped writing: "By the way, I just told Concubine Mu about your situation and our affairs. Don't worry, Concubine Mu is very nice and has no complaints about you, only my heart aches."

Bai Jiuxiao nodded.

In fact, she didn't think about it at all, as long as she didn't reveal her identity and didn't trip her up.

And she knew very well that Concubine De would definitely not reveal her identity, after all, she and Ning Shiqian were on the same boat, and if she was exposed, he would not be able to get away with it.

As for what Concubine De thinks of her, whether she has opinions on her, whether she is satisfied or not, she doesn't care.
