Wishful Things

It obviously didn't sound like the movement of the wind.

Princess Yufeng looked at the big black shadow reflected outside the window, raised her chin slightly, and signaled Shi Shi to take a look.

Shi Shi walked over, and as soon as he carefully opened the window, he saw a hairy and bald head appeared in sight.

After being stunned for a moment, she couldn't help showing surprise in her eyes. She turned her head and said in a low voice, "Princess, it's the vulture raised by the Xu family girl..."

Although all the vultures in the world look about the same, Miss Xu's is particularly round and rich, and the unique lazy temperament on her body cannot be confused at all.

Standing here, the big bird with an overly fat figure made the window lattice seem quite crowded——

Princess Yufeng has already walked over.

"It really is……"

Surprised, she lowered her head and looked at the big bird's feet. Seeing nothing, she stretched out her hand to search the bird's body again: "Where's the letter? You probably lost it..."

Tianmu scratched his neck and barked twice, as if expressing his negation.

Is it the kind of stupid bird that is unreliable?

Then he turned half of his body and yelled twice more urgently.

"...what does it mean?"

Princess Yufeng's eyes were full of confusion, she was not Xu Zhaozhao, how could she understand the birdsong.

Seeing that she was not on the road, the big bird turned around again, stretched out its neck and pecked Princess Yufeng's sleeve with its long beak, and pulled it out vigorously.

"This seems to mean to let the princess go out..." Shi Shi guessed.

go out?

Princess Yufeng's eyes flickered.

Could it be that what came was not a letter, but...

"Go, let me go and have a look." She pulled back her sleeves and immediately left the bedroom with Shi Shi.

Seeing her coming out, Tianmu flapped its wings and flew down from the window.

The big bird led the way, and Princess Yufeng followed Shi Shi with a lantern by his side out of the yard.

The more he walked forward, the more affirmed the bold guess in his heart by Princess Yufeng.

She is very familiar with this road...

It went to the side door in the backyard.

To be honest, in the entire Princess Palace, there are only two masters, she and Xie Dingning, who have not even covered up their faces, so there is nothing that requires her to sneak through the side door of?

But there is one.

In the past, when the relationship between her and Xu Zhaozhao was kept secret from the outside world, the two often met secretly at the side door. Sometimes she would quietly bring people into the mansion, and sometimes the two of them could talk for a long time just behind the side door.

Those were the secret years that she and Xu Zhaozhao shared.

as expected--

When she arrived, there was indeed a figure under the dark corner of the side door.

Princess Yufeng was overjoyed, and quickly ran over with her skirt in her hand. When she came to him, she stretched out her arms and hugged the figure: "Xu Zhaozhao, it's really you!"

"It's dark, how do you know it's me? I'm not afraid of hugging the wrong person, if it's a little gentleman who climbed over the wall, let's see if you can't get rid of it—"

"Is it you? I can recognize it just by looking at the shadow." Princess Yufeng let go of her, and said in a leisurely tone: "Even if you are really a young man, so what, just hug me, is it true that my eldest princess's mansion is still in my arms?" Do you think there is one more, and it’s not that you can’t afford it.”

Xu Mingyi nodded earnestly: "I forgot for a moment that your place is a dragon's lake and a tiger's lair, and no matter which little man comes here, it's just a sheep in the tiger's mouth."

When the two met, it was just a gag, Shi Shi smiled and walked over with a lantern.

With the light of the lantern, Princess Yufeng stretched out his hands to pinch his friend's face in surprise: "How did you do it? It seems like a different person."

This appearance is completely different from Xu Zhaozhao's usual appearance when he was dressed as a man. In comparison, it was just a sloppy and perfunctory appearance in the past.

"I specifically asked an expert for advice. If it wasn't for this, how could I sneak into this capital?"

"You really dare to come back..." Princess Yufeng sighed lightly: "This journey must be extremely difficult, right?"

A joke is a joke, but it is true to feel sorry for a friend.

While talking, seeing that the person in front of him was only wearing a thin jacket of a servant, he took off his red fox fur cloak inlaid with snow, and put it on Xu Mingyi without any explanation.

"Since you have climbed over the wall and come in, why don't you go find me directly, it's very cold, and it's late at night... let's go, go to my courtyard and talk slowly."

Xu Mingyi nodded, walked with her, and said: "It's not likely that everyone in your house is your own. I was afraid that I would be bumped into again, so I thought it would be better to lure you to find me."

Princess Yufeng thought about it, and this is true.

"So, I want to hide you properly so that no one will notice... Why don't you live in the Linglong Pavilion in my garden. No one will go there on weekdays. Let Shi Shi pick two of you to use." The girl is watching and serving."

Hearing that she arranged everything well, Xu Mingyi felt a little funny: "What kind of Linglong Pavilion do you live in? I didn't come to Beijing to enjoy the blessings. I have my own place to stay. This time, I didn't come to Beijing to seek refuge with your wealthy relatives."

Princess Yufeng turned to look at her.

If you don't hide here, why are you here?

He couldn't come to see her specially - if he said that, then she would start to be moved.

"I have something important to discuss with His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess." Xu Mingyi said in a low voice.

Princess Yufeng let out an "oh".

Immediately, his eyes changed slightly.

wrong……

"What do you come to discuss with her, a silly child?"

Xu Mingyi also turned to look at her, and asked back: "You still think your Xie Dingning is a fool?"

Princess Yufeng suddenly raised her eyebrows, and then stopped: "You...see it too?"

She still thinks it's her illusion!

Or... She would rather believe that it was her illusion.

Hearing the word "also", Xu Mingyi felt a little relieved, she thought it was time to find Doctor Qiu to show Xie Jiaojiao's mind.

Seeing her demeanor, Princess Yufeng was inexplicably flustered, but at least she still knew how to ask a serious question: "What do you want to discuss with her?"

This discussion, shouldn't "Xie Dingning" be directly discussed, right?

"It's a long story. You'll understand it when you listen to it later."

Princess Yufeng's face froze: ... No, no, she won't listen!

Immediately, she thought about it and said: "She should have fallen asleep at this time, so I called here rashly because I was afraid that she would not understand, so I will make another scene... I will take you to see her directly. When she rests at night, Ye Mo will be alone. Come on, don't worry about other people around."

Xu Mingyi nodded.

The reason why she came here at this time is to avoid people's eyes and ears, so she can only disturb the eldest princess this time.

Princess Jingrong was fast asleep.

Since she suffered from amnesia, the imperial physician has prescribed some recuperating prescriptions, which are beneficial to her sleep.

The earth dragon was burning in the room, and the warmth felt like mid-spring. Ye Mama lay on the floor in the inner room and woke up when she heard footsteps. She sat up and saw her princess first, and then saw Xu Mingyi who came in.

Why is the princess coming at this hour?

And with a servant!

Nanny Ye's drowsiness was instantly overwhelmed, and she quickly grabbed her coat and put it on—although the family is a young man, but her face is like a servant, how is that the same?

Xu Mingyi had already stepped forward, bent over and said with a smile, "Nurse Ye, don't be afraid, it's me."

Mother Ye paused as she buttoned her clothes, and looked at the person in front of her in disbelief: "Xu...Miss Xu?!"

Xu Mingyi nodded slightly.

Mother Ye breathed a sigh of relief, but also felt her heart hang up—why did Miss Xu come back to the capital?

She couldn't ask what she shouldn't ask, so she just got up and saluted quickly.

Princess Yufeng has come to the bed, lifted the bed curtain and hung up, stretched out her hand and poked Princess Jingrong's face: "Xie Dingning, wake up quickly."

The eldest princess frowned in her sleep, turned over and continued to sleep.

"Ah, this... where did this mouse come from!" Princess Yufeng's tone was panicked, but her expression was calm.

"mouse!"

The eldest princess on the bed suddenly opened her eyes, and sat up with her legs stretched up, her hair loose, with a terrified look on her face: "Where are you! Ye Mo, hurry up!"

Xu Mingyi silently glanced at his friend who was holding back a smile.

This is really a typical broken pot, broken and broken, and the debt is not overwhelming...

"There are no mice, but there is one guest who came to the door in the middle of the night." Princess Yufeng turned sideways, pointed at Xu Mingyi with a smile.

Princess Jingrong looked up in shock.

Xu Mingyi stepped forward to salute: "Your Highness."

The eldest princess was startled, and said a little uncertainly: "Miss Xu?"

"It's a junior. It's rude to visit late at night. It disturbed His Highness's dream. I hope His Highness will forgive me."

The eldest princess seemed to be unable to recover for a while, and she was still in a daze between half asleep and half awake.

"Xie Dingning, stay here and talk to the guests well, I'll go out for a walk, the moonlight is beautiful tonight..."

Princess Yufeng walked out meanderingly while speaking.

As long as she doesn't listen and she's not present, she doesn't know, and if she doesn't know, she doesn't have to bear the consequences-is that the reason?

Ye Momo glanced at her Highness and Xu Mingyi, and lowered her eyes, "This old servant is going to make a pot of hot tea for Miss Xu."

After speaking, he backed out.

Looking at the eldest princess sitting on the bed, Xu Mingyi didn't rush to say anything, but curled up his mouth and smiled.

There seemed to be some kind of honesty in this smile that didn't need to be said, and both of them knew each other well.

The four eyes met, the dazed look on Princess Jingrong's face gradually faded, and after a while, she said, "Wouldn't it be dangerous for Miss Xu to enter Beijing at this time?"

When he spoke, his facial features were still the same, but because of the change in his expression, he seemed to be a completely different person.

Xu Mingyi's heartstrings loosened slightly——

Princess Jingrong is back.

In other words, the other party was willing to let go of the disguise and meet her honestly.

This is a good start to the conversation, and it can even be said that a good result of the conversation can be foreseen.

She knew that the eldest princess's amnesia was false, and the eldest princess also knew that she knew.

But if the other party is determined to pretend to be stupid to the end, she will have to take her time and find another way.

"This junior has an extremely important matter to discuss with His Highness, so I have to make this trip."

The eldest princess nodded lightly: "Sit down and talk."

"Thank you, Your Highness." Xu Mingyi sat down on a tasseled sandalwood drum stool beside the bed.

"I don't know what Miss Xu wants to talk to me about?"

"The junior wants to know why the emperor wanted to kill His Highness—"

The girl asked directly and suddenly, and the eldest princess half-hidden her fingers in the soft brocade quilt slightly curled up.

Almost dying at the hands of her own brother was neither honorable nor easy to accept. No matter how many times she thought about it or dreamed about it, she would still feel a chill all over her body and even her internal organs.

And just when she was about to answer, she heard the girl's voice following the words just now: "But because of the late emperor's edict?"

The eldest princess suddenly raised her eyes to look at her.

She knew that this little girl knew many things, including reminding her at the beginning, leading someone to rescue her in time, and everything after that, silently cooperating with each other——

But she never thought of...

Seeing her astonishment, Xu Mingyi roughly explained: "It was discovered from His Highness's experience and other past events, and after analyzing many times with his grandfather at home, and the fact that the Emperor came to the Princess Palace that day and was lured away by His Highness. Xiyuan—”

She saw it all.

The eldest princess was overwhelmed, and after a while, she nodded and said: "Yes, the imperial father did leave a will...and it was handed over to me."

At this moment, Xu Mingyi seemed to hear the sound of a stone falling to the ground in his heart.

No matter how many affirmations before, it was just speculation, and now it is truly confirmed that the will did exist.

At this time, there was a faint sound of inhalation and exclamation from outside the window.

Xu Mingyi looked over.

This eavesdropper was actually standing directly outside the window...

With the lights on in the corridor, that slim figure is not too eye-catching.

Nanny Ye, who was also in the corridor, wanted to remind her, but after thinking about it, she felt that it was unnecessary.

Inside the room, Xu Mingyi looked at the eldest princess, and confessed the purpose of this trip: "This junior wants to invite His Highness to come forward and personally confirm in front of all the ministers that the late emperor left a will."

The eldest princess was silent for a moment.

After that, she nodded slightly and said, "Miss Xu doesn't need to say the word 'please', after all, this is what I should do."

She said: "When the father handed over the edict to me, he once told me that if one day, the emperor dared to do things that endangered his brothers and the world, he asked me to announce this edict to the world..."

Hearing this premise suddenly, Xu Mingyi couldn't help but said: "The former emperor was really soft-hearted and tolerant towards His Majesty today. Is there anything he can't do after a person who dared to kill his father?"

Princess Jingrong's expression changed drastically.

"Miss Xu...what did you say?"

——Patricide? !

Xu Mingyi was also a little surprised: "Does Your Highness not know about this?"

She thought that since the edict was handed over to the eldest princess, the former emperor must also tell the truth to his daughter.

Could it be that even the first emperor himself didn't know that he was assassinated by others?

Leaving this posthumous edict is only for the sake of protecting King Yan and the stability of the country?

This idea flashed through my mind, and was quickly rejected by Xu Mingyi—impossible, even if a person who sits on the throne by his own ability will be less wary of the eldest son because of his father, it is impossible In the end, he didn't even know how he died.

"I never knew about this...!" Princess Jingrong's complexion was snow-white, and she wanted to ask "Is there any evidence", but the words were already felt superfluous.

The emperor's brother killed his father...

In the past, she would not have believed it, but she herself has experienced life and death under the hands of the emperor!

For a person who can attack his own sister just out of suspicion and fear that his throne will be threatened... what else is impossible?

Princess Jingrong's eyes were red, she was shocked and distressed when she first learned the truth, and even more uncontrollable anger.

Thank you Qinghan for your many rewards, and thank you for your monthly tickets and comments.
