After Gao married the prince, the sick and weak concubine lost her horse

Accompanied by a rush of hoofbeats, a carriage galloped from the east.

It is particularly abrupt and harsh on the streets surrounded by soldiers.

But there was a sign of the Eastern Palace on the carriage, and the driver was still holding the token of the Eastern Palace. Not only did no one dare to stop them along the way, the officers and soldiers who saw them lowered their heads to avoid collision with the people inside.

After Shen Qingci and Sheng Tingye exchanged a look, they didn't delay at all. They slid down from the roof one after the other, avoiding the soldiers who were interrogating them all the way, and rushed to the entrance of the alley, just in time for the carriage to pass by.

The driver of the car was a secret guard that Sheng Tingye had arranged in advance. When passing by the alley where Shen Qingci and Sheng Tingye were hiding, the driver flicked his fingertips and fired two hidden weapons, directly knocking down the lantern at the intersection.

As the light at the intersection dimmed, Shen Qingci and Sheng Ting Yefei got into the carriage, moving so fast that no one was even alarmed.

The carriage continued to run wildly towards the palace, while Shen Qingci and Sheng Tingye had already got on the carriage steadily.

And there was another person in the carriage.

It was the rightful lord who rushed to the palace this time, the lord of Xihe County, Xiao Yuexi.

She rushed into the palace this time, of course it was under Shen Qingci's calculations.

Xiao Wenyan may be indifferent to others, but he has some genuine affection for this sister who is a compatriot from the same mother.

He didn't want to involve Xiao Yuexi in the Yong'an Palace's treason case, so in order to protect her, he ordered people to trap Xiao Yuexi in a garden in the south of the city.

When Xiao Yuexi was taken down, Sheng Tingye's hidden guards followed her all the way.

As for the token to enter and exit the East Palace, Sheng Tingye stayed in the East Palace these few days, not just looking at Xiao Wenyan.

Especially after Xiao Qingqi's accident, Xiao Wenyan's case piled up like a mountain of official documents and notes. Even if he pretended well in front of Sheng Tingye, with so many things and so many clues, it's hard not to reveal his flaws.

What's more, when it comes to scheming, Sheng Tingye is simply the king in this area.

The past few days have been enough for Sheng Tingye to sort out Xiao Wenyan's party lineage in the court, the information of courtiers who have contacts with Xiao Wenyan, and the weaknesses of some courtiers that Xiao Wenyan used...

A Token of the Eastern Palace is naturally a no-brainer.

Xiao Yuexi acts impulsively and does not care about the consequences, as long as she is told a little news about something happening in the palace, she will definitely rush there immediately.

This happened to be able to bring Sheng Tingye and Shen Qingci into the palace.

When Shen Qingci left the palace, he had already thought about this.

What Xiao Wenyan wanted was for them to go and never return, so she wanted to go back right now to see what step Xiao Wenyan had made.

Counting the time, the Tai Chi Palace is bustling right now.

The sudden appearance of Shen Qingci and Sheng Tingye directly frightened Xiao Yuexi in the carriage.

Before she could cry out in surprise, Shen Qingci directly chopped the man unconscious with a knife in his hand.

Seeing her fall down, her head was about to hit the side wall of the carriage, Shen Qingci quickly grabbed her shoulders, stabilized her figure, and then slowly put her body against the side wall go down.

At the same time, she still didn't forget to tease Sheng Tingye: "Don't you take a closer look, husband? Maybe you can recognize where the girl was saved by taking a second look."

Sheng Tingye had already avoided it all the way, but when he heard this, he subconsciously moved to the side again.

"There's nothing."

That's what he said, but Sheng Tingye was already silently lighting a piece of wax for himself in his heart, praying that he would not have to do such a thing next time.

Shen Qingci was actually just making a joke.

Seeing Sheng Tingye sitting in danger as if he was facing an enemy, she couldn't help laughing. Thinking of the words he deliberately teased Wang Cheng in the secret passage to destroy the country and massacre the city, Shen Qingci had found his place once again.

But before the smile on the corner of her mouth fully bloomed, Sheng Tingye was like a roundworm in her stomach. He only took one look at her expression and guessed what she was thinking.

He sighed helplessly, raised his hand to grab her arm, and pulled her into his arms.

Before Shen Qingci could struggle, he had already patiently said: "That's because that person said some unsavory things in front of you in Jinyi Lane."

Although he didn't say it to Shen Qingci, Shen Qingci listened to those words and didn't say anything. When he turned back to the attic, Sheng Tingye saw his eyes looking at Shen Qingci, and he felt uncomfortable at that time.

After he said this, Shen Qingci finally realized that she sat in Sheng Tingye's arms without struggling to get up, with one hand still on Sheng Tingye's shoulder, she couldn't help laughing and said, "In this way, my husband really must take revenge."

Sheng Tingye glanced at Xiao Yuexi, who was unconscious next to the two of them, and pointedly said: "Both each other."

As soon as the words fell, the two looked at each other and smiled.

The carriage was galloping all the way, and Shen Qingci, who was sitting in Sheng Tingye's arms, felt his heart tremble.

After laughing, thinking of the situation in the palace, she couldn't help frowning and said, "I don't know what's going on with my aunt."

Sheng Tingye held her shoulders with one hand, circling her body so that she could sit more comfortably, and played with her long hair with the other hand.

Hearing this, he paused at his fingertips, and the black hair that had just wrapped around his fingertips slipped down in an instant.

He hooked Shen Qingci's finger with that fingertip, and said softly: "It will be fine."

How can a female monarch who can turn against the wind in the hands of the regent and hold power for many years be an idle person.

She was poisoned before because she was manipulated by others, and people around her took advantage of her loopholes.

How could something like this happen a second time.

Of course Shen Qingci understood this truth.

Otherwise, she would not have the courage to leave the palace at this time to deliberately create opportunities for Xiao Wenyan.

It's just because that person is her long-lost mother-in-law, and it's a lie to say that she doesn't worry.

Just as he was thinking, the galloping carriage stopped suddenly.

"who!"

With a shout, a sound of uniform footsteps stopped in front of the carriage.

The hidden guard driving the car took out his token calmly, and said calmly: "There is chaos in the city tonight, His Royal Highness is worried about the safety of the princess, and ordered me to go and pick him up back to the palace."

It is well known that Xiao Wenyan loves this younger sister, let alone his subordinates.

After hearing this and adding the token, the guards at Zhengyang Gate already believed it.

But after all, before seeing the princess himself, the leader was about to speak. Shen Qingci had already got up from Sheng Tingye, and raised his hand to open a gap in the curtain of the carriage.

The light from the lantern under the city gate came in through this gap, and it just happened to shine on the face of Xiao Yuexi who had fallen asleep leaning against the opposite side wall, causing everyone to take a closer look, Shen Qingci lowered his voice at the same time and said: "Princess It’s been hard for the past few days, and it’s hard to take a nap, if you wake up, and your Highness blames you later, can you bear it?”

The leader who was about to go up to check and inquire, after confirming that Xiao Yuexi was in the carriage, how could he dare to be negligent, and immediately asked someone to open the palace door lightly and put the carriage in.
