The sick king dotes on the princess and the mad concubine

Chapter 159 V162 Secret Road Exit
Hu Yanhui waved her hands impatiently, and the attendants behind her immediately stepped forward to escort Lin Qiuyi out of the crowd.

Lin Qiuyi said: "Go and take care of the princess. My people are outside. I will go back to the Lin Mansion tonight. If the princess needs me tomorrow, I will send someone to come."

Fang Huyanhui's attention was already attracted by the things on the stage, and he didn't hear what she said at all.

Lin Qiuyi snorted coldly, and her gaze fell to the center of the stage. At this time, it happened that Caiwei girl was performing her dance skills, which really made the boys and buddies in the audience stare round. In Lin Qiuyi's eyes, these were just some It's just a way to seduce men by sensationalism.

After leaving Yanyu Lane, a sweet fragrance wafted from the side of the road. It turned out that there was an old couple selling wontons by the side of the road.

It was still a few hours before the dinner road, Lin Qiuyi's stomach also sang empty city tricks, and without hesitation, she took two maidservants and sat at the street stall.

Regarding food, she is really similar to Lin Fanghua, she is not picky, and she does not put on aristocratic airs. The two old couples looked at the three of them dressed in expensive clothes, and greeted them with sincerity. Soon, a bowl of hot chicken soup The wontons are on the table.

The servant girl carefully wiped the chopsticks and handed them over, but stretched out a hand and hid the chopsticks.

Lin Qiuyi frowned, followed that hand to look, but saw that the person who came was actually the so-called Mr. Duxiu whom she met in Jieyou Pavilion that day, so she couldn't help being stunned.

Ogawa twirled the chopsticks between his fingers, as if he suddenly became interested in chopsticks.

"Bold! Who are you to dare to..."

The servant girl yelled, Lin Qiuyi slowly raised her hand, and the yelling stopped abruptly.

Xiao Chuan smiled foolishly and said, "It's so late, Miss Lin San doesn't come home, why is she eating wontons at this street stall? Tsk tsk tsk, it's really surprising..."

"What's none of your business?" After saying that, as soon as he stretched out his hand, the maid quickly took out another pair of chopsticks and handed them over.

However, Xiao Chuan sat down opposite Lin Qiuyi, and said, "At any rate, we know each other. Since you want to eat wontons, why don't you buy me a bowl too. I'm hungry and I don't have any money." The old couple said: "One more bowl."

Lin Qiuyi sneered: "Why should I invite you to eat?" Although she is not extremely smart, she can tell that this young man must have a close relationship with Yin Jieyou, and that this young man is so skilled that he dares to touch anyone named Yanhui She is also surprisingly courageous, so even if she is very dissatisfied and irritable in her heart, she has to suppress it and control her tone and words when she speaks.

"Don't be so mean..."

The old couple quickly delivered the wontons, and Xiao Chuan had already begun to feast on them without hesitation.

Lin Qiuyi was still a little hungry at first, but now she was half full, and was about to leave when she got up, but a pair of chopsticks stretched out in front of her, "You didn't give me any money."

"none of your business?"

Xiao Chuan stood up with a playful smile, but he didn't look like a hungry ghost just now. He slowly circled Lin Qiuyi twice, and said, "I heard that the day before your fourth sister went to the royal temple to offer incense. Today, you once secretly met Wei Lan, the son of Duke Wei, didn't you?"

Lin Qiuyi's face turned pale in an instant, "You—" But realizing that this place is outside, with many people talking, she lowered her voice instantly, "Don't talk nonsense——"

"I have evidence." Xiao Chuan waved a sachet in his hand, and said with a half smile, "If I told Lin Shuai and everyone about this, what would they think?"

Lin Qiuyi looked at the sachet, and her pale face became whiter than gold paper, "What do you want?"

"No money yet?"

How dare Lin Qiuyi refuse?Throwing an ingot of silver on the table hastily, the old couple put it away gratefully, but also saw that the two guests seemed not to be provoked tonight, and cautiously hoped that the two of them would leave, so they hurriedly packed up and went back. go home.

Xiao Chuan took a sip of the soup, stood up satisfied, and walked forward.

Lin Qiuyi stood behind with a pale face, staring straight at Xiao Chuan's back, wishing he could stare a few holes.

Xiao Chuan walked a few steps, then stopped suddenly, looked back, with a smile in his eyes, "I said, why don't you come over?"

Lin Qiuyi quickly retracted her gaze, but still couldn't escape Xiao Chuan's eyes.

With a sneer in Xiao Chuan's eyes, he stopped waiting for her and walked straight forward.

Lin Qiuyi didn't think for a long time, so she chased after her.

Xiao Chuan walked a few steps and saw a stone table in front of him for pedestrians to rest, so Shi Shiran sat down.

Lin Qiuyi stood a few steps away from Xiaochuan, with two maidservants following behind him. Because there was no light here, it looked very dark, but it was not as black as Lin Qiuyi's face.

"What do you want to return the sachet to me?"

Xiao Chuan's voice seemed to have a cynical smile, "This sachet is really yours. I was just cheating you, but I didn't expect..."

Lin Qiu was furious.

Xiao Chuan sighed again, "Since it's yours, you always have to return it to the original owner, but I'm really curious, what did you do to find that Wei Lan the day before your sister was incensed?" Woolen cloth?"

"Stop talking nonsense! Don't think you can do anything to me when you get this sachet. If you want to give it to me, you can give it to me. If you don't want to give it, you can do whatever you want." Lin Qiuyi spoke harshly, even Xiao Chuan knew Yin What's the big deal about worrying, after all, it's just a white dress with no identity and background, so it's possible that she can still be afraid of her!

"Ah, I seem to have forgotten to tell you. Recently, I have been with Prime Minister Right to help him inquire about the missing of your little sister from the Lin family. You said that if Prime Minister Right..."

Lin Qiuyi's face turned blue and white in an instant, her breathing was stagnant, and she couldn't speak a word.

This sachet was indeed hers. She didn't have to go to see Wei Lan in person that day, but Wei Lan clearly asked her to go, and she was also afraid of handing it over to others. After the incident was revealed, there would be witnesses, so she went there alone. After telling Wei Lan the time for Dong Nuan to burn incense, that Wei Lan became lustful again and started to touch her. Fortunately, although she is usually lazy, she is more than enough to deal with idle dudes like Wei Lan. Lost the sachet while pulling.

She didn't pay attention at the time, she just thought it was thrown elsewhere, but she never thought that someone would get it, and she used it as a threat.

The empress dowager needs to know that she has actually left evidence for people to catch. According to her past style of handling things, once this matter is revealed, she is the best candidate to be the scapegoat...

All of a sudden, she felt chills all over her body, and Xiao Chuan's normal voice made her extremely terrified at this moment.

"how?"

"What do you want to do?" Lin Qiuyi's voice at this time was extremely low and soft, without the original arrogance at all.

"I'm a little confused, and I want to talk to you."

"You said."

"Well..." Xiao Chuan pondered for a while, and suddenly said: "You go to see Wei Lan, you can't have a secret promise for Wei Lanfang, right?"

In the dark night, Lin Qiuyi's face was pale, but a look of disdain flashed in her eyes. Under such a dark situation, Xiao Chuan must not be able to see it. As everyone knows, Xiao Chuan has deep internal energy, and seeing things in the dark is just a common thing. At the beginning, Lin Qiuyi said that the current look, all of them fell into her eyes.

Lin Qiuyi's voice suddenly became a little embarrassed, a little scared: "I... Please don't tell others, okay..." It turned out to be an admission.

Xiao Chuan looked a little deep, "But if this is the case, wouldn't I have no benefit at all? Well, I heard that there is a snow lotus plant in your Lin family ancestral temple. You bring it to me in exchange for your sachet. How about a secret?"

"Snow lotus... I have indeed heard of this thing, but I have been to worship many times every year, and I have never seen that thing. It must be a rumor?"

is it?

Xiao Chuan raised his eyebrows, and said again: "Hmph, that kind of thing must not be put on the bright side, is there some kind of mechanism?"

Lin Qiu felt that he seemed to have been fooled by Xiao Chuan, so he started talking nonsense, "Yes, maybe not, I don't know... please give me the sachet."

Xiao Chuan chuckled, "Hey, you didn't give me the answer I wanted, how about this, you go to investigate and find out what else you didn't say, and then you tell me about the snow lotus, and I will give you incense It's packed."

Lin Qiuyi's complexion changed, "You—"

Xiao Chuan laughed again, "Or just let someone hand it over to the emperor. If you secretly want to see each other, you must also be deeply in love. If so, I have done a good deed."

Lin Qiuyi's heart almost collapsed, who can't bear to love that Wei Lan?I just want to follow Wei Lan's hand to ruin Lin Dongnuan's innocence, so that she can't marry Huaiyin as a concubine, so as to make the Queen Mother happy, and let the Queen Mother pave the way for himself and Lie Yan, but this matter , How can it be made public?If this sachet appeared in front of the emperor, it would be a serious crime to give and receive it privately. Even if no punishment was imposed, she would probably fall on Wei Lan's head in this life.

Seeing that Xiao Chuan was about to leave, Lin Qiuyi blurted out.

"wait."

"Have you thought about it?"

"I... I seem to have heard the old man beside my mother say that there is a piece of ice jade there, and the snow lotus flower is embedded in the ice jade by my mother. It is in the ancestral temple, but I don't know where it is placed. .”

"Is that all?" Xiaochuan looked at her dodging expression, "I'd better go."

"Also—" Lin Qiuyi hurriedly said again: "Also, there are many organs inside..."

"Government... Is there any secret thing? Why do I think you don't want to talk about it?"

"This—" Even though Lin Qiuyi felt resentful in her heart, she still hesitated. The ancestral temple is not only a place for the Lin family to worship their ancestors, but also a place of escape prepared for future changes in the court situation. A traitor to the Lin family?
Xiao Chuan waved the sachet in his hand.

Lin Qiuyi gritted her teeth, and told herself that she didn't want to marry Wei Lan, and she might as well die, not to mention that the Lin family was in full swing, and the escape would not be used, no.

"I only heard that there is a secret passage leading to the outside of the city, but I don't know where it is..."

Xiao Chuan frowned slightly, turned around and left.

Lin Qiuyi was stunned for a moment, and quickly chased after her, "Give me back the sachet!"

"Ah! Sachet, I suddenly like this sachet, why don't you give it to me?" Xiao Chuan smiled and threw the sachet up, then quickly put it back in his hand, looking at the pale and resentful Lin Qiuyi, he left proudly up.

"You stop!"

Lin Qiuyi ran a few steps to catch up, but saw that Xiao Chuan had long since disappeared. Suddenly, her whole body became cold and her heart sank to the bottom.

Xiao Chuan got the layout drawing of the Lin Family Ancestral Temple very quickly, looked at the various lines on the drawing, and secretly analyzed the organs and structures that might be embedded in it.

Nalan Yuyuan was dealing with official business and didn't study. Wen Xun also came, but he saw Xiao Chuan concentrating on the drawings.He really had never seen Xiao Chuan so serious and focused, and took back all the words that came to his lips.

Xiao Chuan said: "Do you have any drawings of the capital? The more detailed the better."

Nalan Yu hesitated for a moment, then took out a carefully preserved blueprint from the hidden compartment and handed it over.

Xiao Chuan opened it and saw that it was the defense map of Gyeonggi, so he couldn't help being startled.

Nalan Yu said: "If you really want to find out where the exit of the Lin Family Secret Road is from the blueprint, you need to look at this picture."

This map covers the entire layout of the major forces in the capital, both in the open and in the dark. It is indeed much clearer than ordinary drawings for finding a needle in a haystack. However, isn't this kind of capital defense map the top secret of the imperial court?Why did Nalan Yu show it to her?

Xiao Chuan secretly thought, could it be because Yin Jieyou is his fiancée, so he doesn't care about secrets or not?
However, these thoughts also passed by in a flash, and there were more important things waiting for her to do at this time.

She quickly followed the distribution and layout of the various forces on the Gyeonggi defense map, keenly found several possible estates at the exit of the secret road, and wrote them down on paper.

Nalan Yu took the paper and handed it to Chang Ming, "Go and check, hurry up."

"Yes."

Changming took the order to leave.

Xiao Chuan frowned and continued to look at the drawings seriously, thinking about other possibilities in his heart, couldn't help moving the Langhao pen in his hand, but he didn't expect that the pen was originally dipped in ink. With her inadvertent movement, the remaining ink It was thrown out all of a sudden, and a few drops fell on her face.

Ogawa was taken aback.

When Nalan Yu turned around, he happened to see this scene, and couldn't help but sighed in his heart. He was indeed smart in his bones, but his temperament was still confused.

A pure white silky handkerchief wiped Xiao Chuan's cheeks, wiping away the sudden ink.

Xiao Chuan stared blankly at Nalan Yu who was so close to him, couldn't help pursing his lips, and said, "Do you always carry a handkerchief with you?"

"Not often."

"Um... I mean, do you give handkerchiefs a lot?"

Nalan Yu smiled slightly, "Do you think I'm very free, I often give handkerchiefs to others when I have time." After wiping the cheeks, he went to wipe the eyebrows, because of the huge difference in height between the two, Nalan Yu had to slightly He leaned over to wipe her clean.

And this leaning, the too close distance almost made Xiao Chuan take two steps back immediately, but she told herself that she couldn't do it because she wanted to be strong. She took a deep breath, but regretted it to death, because of that deep breath, a rush Qinglian breathed into her nostrils, and her head could be a little confused, she told herself secretly, be normal, Zhuge Wangchuan, this is a man with a marriage contract, um.

She closed her eyes, and when she tried to open them, she had regained some sanity, and hurriedly took two steps back, "Okay, okay, don't wipe it, if you continue to wipe it, Yin Jieyou's life will be lost."
