Chapter 199

"Xuanxiao," Xie Yingmei shouted to the main hall, "xuanxiao. Where are you? We're back."

Xue ronghua booed her. "Keep your voice down. Xuanxiao told me she wanted to take a nap."

"Now it's time to have dinner. What does she do with her nap? She's really a lazy little bug," Xie Yingmei ran into xuanxiao's rest room again. "Xuanxiao... Xuanxiao is not sleeping. There is no one in her room."

Xue ronghua followed in strangely and looked around the room. "I clearly told xuanxiao not to go out easily. If I met the German imperial concubine, it would be troublesome, but she still didn't listen to me."

"Forget it. This girl is very wild. That's how she ran away from us."

Xue ronghua chuckled, "then you really came out of the same place with her. You weren't like that at that time."

Zhuang Youyi and Jiang Jinwen turned the front wall over. Sure enough, there was a space inside and a palace lantern hung. Below is the staircase leading to the underground, sinking in a dark atmosphere in the dim light.

"Finally found it." Jiang Jinwen took down the palace lantern and put it in her hand. "Do you want to go down with me?"

Zhuang Youyi looked carefully at the door. Seeing Yin Yin and Lin Lang nodded at her, he said, "aren't you afraid of anything scary below?"

"Are you afraid?" Jiang Jinwen smiled softly. "You may see Prince Chun below."

"Prince Chun is not so easy to see," said Zhuang Youyi. "Then you lead the way."

"It seems that the general's daughter is very timid," Jiang Jinwen went down like a little monkey. "Be careful. The ladder is very steep."

Zhuang Youyi smiled and said, "my father didn't let me move around when I was a child. You are a civil servant's daughter. You are very brave."

"That's it," Jiang Jinwen just settled down and saw the passage below. She couldn't see anything clearly inside. It was like shrouded in a layer of black fog. She couldn't even see half a lamp. She could only rely on the palace lamp in her hand to illuminate a piece of heaven and earth. "There was indeed a secret way in here."

Zhuang Youyi followed her carefully. There was dust flying in the secret path, and there were spider webs in several places. It seemed that no one had set foot here for a long time. "You said how could there be a secret path in Penglai hall? Was it built by imperial concubine Jing to enhance the relationship between mother and son with Prince Chun?"

"Maybe, but you can't be sure that this secret road leads to Prince Chunqin's house. It may lead to other places."

Zhuang Youyi pondered for a moment and said word by word: "if my direction is not wrong, this secret road really leads to Prince Chunqin's house."

"Are you sure?" Jiang Jinwen picked her eyebrows. "Then you must keep your mouth shut. If people know that there is a secret road in your palace leading to Prince Chunqin's house, we'll wait to be cleaned up by the emperor."

"I saw the emperor that day. He was humorous and should be a good person to get along with." Zhuang Youyi blinked.

"Don't be too naive," said Jiang Jinwen with a chuckle. "He is humorous to you because you are the daughter of general Zhuang. Do you think he will joke with Prince Chun when he sees a traitor like him?"

Zhuang Youyi sighed, "do you think the magic of the throne is so great? How can so many people be crazy about it?"

"Then you have to ask Prince Chun and the emperor," Jiang Jinwen smiled. "I'm not the son of the royal family, but I also know that the throne symbolizes endless wealth and power, which means you can get everything you want. With such a temptation ahead, who wouldn't be crazy about it."

"As soon as I think that there are so many people who do not hesitate to hurt each other and turn their husbands and wives against each other for the sake of the throne, I feel that a cold air rushes into my heart," Zhuang Youyi reluctantly spread her hands. "If only everyone could calm down and don't be so obsessed with power and wealth."

"You can't understand these things since you were a child," Jiang Jinwen patted her on the shoulder. "If you are also a prince, you know the temptation and difficulties."

"Who is talking there?"

A voice containing tension and anger came. Zhuang Youyi screamed. Jiang Jinwen hurriedly pressed her flustered body, boldly took a few steps forward, explored the palace lantern, and saw a shadow in front of the secret Road, behind him was the sunshine from the outside.

This man's place should be the end of the secret road. Jiang Jinwen hugged Zhuang Youyi, who was trembling gently, raised her voice and asked, "who are you? This is Penglai hall."

With a sneer, the figure threw something and put out her palace lantern. With a very magnetic voice and a sense of oppression, he asked, "this is Prince Chunqin's house. Who are you?"

Jiang Jinwen shook her hand and threw the palace lantern on the ground. Her heart beat like a drum. She hardened her head and replied, "I... I'm Princess Qi, the master of Penglai hall."

"What, concubine Qi," the man's face didn't really see it, and he just felt a cold, "you're not concubine Qi, you're... You're Jiang Jinwen, the daughter of Lord Jiang."

Jiang Jinwen was stunned and bit her lower lip. "How do you know who I am? I haven't asked who you are. Are you from Chunqin palace?"

Zhuang Youyi leaned softly against her, pulled her sleeve, and whispered, "you said it's too late for us to go back now. This man makes me so afraid. We found this shady tunnel. He won't kill us."

"Don't be afraid. I can do some martial arts with me," Jiang Jinwen cleared her throat and said loudly. "I'm Princess Qi of Penglai hall and Lord Jiang's daughter Jiang Jinwen. Who are you? Don't tell me your name."

The man was silent for a long time and suddenly said in an extremely gentle voice, "I'm Meng Yuanzhen. Don't you know me?"

Jiang Jinwen opened her mouth in a daze. "You are Meng Yuanzhen. Who are you scaring? You are prince Chun?"

Zhuang Youyi suddenly raised her head from her arms. There was a surprise in her eyes, "Meng Yuanzhen... He is Meng Yuanzhen, this is Prince Chun's voice." she turned her head happily, "Prince Chun, you are prince Chun."

Meng Yuanzhen stood where the sun shone. He rubbed his eyes and raised a gentle smile to them. "Jin Wen, how did you come to the palace?" he paused and said sadly, "after many years, you should be the emperor's concubine."

Zhuang Youyi rushed forward. She saw the face of the man she had admired for many years. He was still the style that attracted her at first sight. His eyebrows and eyes were clear and handsome, and his smile was warm. Just an ordinary standing posture showed the bearing of Yushu facing the wind. The sunshine pouring in behind seemed to set him off better.

Meng Yuanzhen looked at the woman in Palace Dress and said strangely, "are you?"

Zhuang Youyi's smile on her lips stiffened and lowered her head in some loss.

"She is the empress Qi of Penglai hall," Jiang Jinwen followed her closely. "She is Zhuang Youyi, the daughter of general Zhuang."

"Oh, I seem to have heard the name somewhere," Meng Yuanzhen suddenly remembered. "I've seen general Zhuang many times. It turns out you're his daughter."

"Yes," Zhuang Youyi smiled unnaturally, "you've seen me too, but you may not see me at my father's birthday."

Meng Yuanzhen didn't seem to hear her. He just looked at Jiang Jinwen behind her, "are you the person around Princess Qi?"

"No," Jiang Jinwen shook her head gently and smiled. "I'm min Jieyu from Zhongcui palace. Prince Chun hasn't seen you for a long time." she looked at the vicissitudes between his eyebrows and eyes. "I haven't seen you for a long time. You've changed a lot."

Meng Yuanzhen nodded slightly, with thousands of meanings in his eyes, "but you are still the same as you were when you were a child."

Zhuang Youyi was very embarrassed to stand in front of the two people who were talking about the past. What's more, it was not a plain acquaintance relationship. They almost became husband and wife, and they were really not even acquaintances. They were just strangers.

"You can talk to him for a while," Zhuang Youyi said with a faint smile. "I'll wait for you in the back."

Jiang Jinwen nodded, and the hand in her sleeve tightly clutched the corner of her dress.

"It's all dinner time," Xue ronghua looked at the gate of the palace. "Why haven't you seen xuanxiao come back?"

Xie Yingmei is not interested in xuanxiao's whereabouts. "Don't worry, she will come back naturally when she is hungry. We are also anxious here."

Xue ronghua locked her eyebrows. "I always feel something wrong in my heart. You know xuanxiao's identity. Xirong's detailed work was found to be life-threatening. It's not so easy to solve. Not to mention the presence of the German imperial concubine. It's not good for her to meet anyone." her heart tightened. In those years, Zhu Tong disappeared inexplicably, and so did Xiang He and Qing Ning.

Xie Yingmei waved to the palace people to serve quickly. "Let's have dinner first. You know xuanxiao's martial arts. I'm afraid she can't succeed even if several bodyguards surround her."

Xue ronghua opened her hand and said, "xuanxiao doesn't care. If she's lucky and hasn't been touched by others, she can come back safely. If she's caught unfortunately, we'll try to save her."

Xie Yingmei nodded her head, but her eyes kept staring at the food. "Yes, yes, I know. Just rest assured."

Xue ronghua curved his lips. "Now if the imperial concubine and the German imperial concubine know that you are pregnant, go out in a big way in the future."

Xie Yingmei nervously covered her stomach. "You said they wouldn't be so cruel to hurt me?"

"They definitely had such an idea," Xue ronghua thought, "But it's not a good strategy for you. For example, the imperial concubine can use your children to control a pair of children of the German imperial concubine and please the emperor. What's wrong can also pour dirty water on the German imperial concubine. The German imperial concubine can let you have your own children and transfer some of the fire originally concentrated on the great imperial son and princess to your children, so you think they have Who will harm your children? If you give birth to a princess, they will be more happy. They won't even have the threat of the prince. "

Xie Yingmei put down her chopsticks and tooted her mouth. "These women in the harem are so calculating. I'm not their opponent at all."

"So learn more and don't know anything like a child," sighed Xue ronghua. "I'll go back to the state of Qi no matter what. If you don't learn to deal with them again, what will you do if I leave?"
