Chapter 699: Frustration
However, Xiaoqing just shook her head, "It's nothing, I just remembered that when I was a child, I had the opportunity to learn formations, but at that time I was determined to practice martial arts and didn't want to learn it at all. Now that I think about it, I missed it a lot."
Xie Songhua always maintained a disbelief and unnegative attitude towards such mysterious things, so he did not continue to talk about it.
When I returned to the palace, it was already dark, but before I could reach Yanchuntai, I was stopped.
Huang Zicheng's official uniforms have not taken off his body yet, and it seems that he came straight over.
I was relieved when I saw her, and then I clasped my fists and saluted her, "I learned that the princess had not come back when I came to the mansion, so I thought I had gone to inquire about the prince, but there was no trace of the princess in Xie's mansion..."
Xie Songhua did not want to hide it from him, "I went to the Han Mansion and wanted to get some news from Han Jian's mouth."
Huang Zicheng was obviously a little surprised about her going to the Han Mansion, but it was only a moment, and it seemed that he quickly understood, "The princess has found something."
Xie Songhua shook his head helplessly, "Han Jian was very alert and said he told me not to worry, and said that the prince would not have any trouble and said nothing else."
Huang Zicheng seemed to breathe a sigh of relief when he heard this.
Xie Songhua couldn't help but say in surprise: "Do you believe Han Jian so much?"
Huang Zicheng sneered, "Although the eunuch is full of evil and sinister, I rarely tell lies based on my understanding of him."
Unexpectedly, in the other side's camp, Han Jian received such a review.
"Then what did you find today?"
Huang Zicheng nodded slightly, "The day the prince entered the palace, he did go to see His Majesty, but according to the integrated news, he did not see the prince in Qianyuan Palace since then. The food sent to Qianyuan Palace has not changed, and there was no abnormality in daily expenses. It is highly likely that the prince was not in Qianyuan Palace, and it is very likely that he left on the first day."
"But when the prince told me that he was obviously planning to go in for several days."
Huang Zicheng nodded, "That day, no one except the national teacher entered the palace, so the prince's whereabouts can only be considered in these two places."
One place refers to the only national teacher who entered the palace, and the other one is naturally the prince who does not need to enter the palace.
Judging from the incident where Jiang Shuhua blocked the road at that time, the chances of the prince were obviously greater.
Xie Songhua told him what happened at that time, and Huang Zicheng just nodded slightly, "I will continue to give orders and monitor the every move of the East Palace. I think there will be a result soon."
Monitor the East Palace.
He said these four words as if he was ordinary, and he didn't seem to notice that this was a traitor.
"But Princess, you should not participate in this matter. Han Jian said such a thing, and... your status is valuable. If something happens, the subordinates really don't know how to explain to the prince after the prince returns."
Xie Songhua opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but when he remembered another thing, he changed his mind, "What you said is, the most important thing is that I can't help too much in such a thing. The prince's safety is still entrusted to you."
Sure enough, seeing that she stopped insisting, Huang Zicheng's eyes were obviously relaxed.
Only when he entered the Yanchuntai did Xie Songhua feel tired.
She knew in her heart that Huang Zicheng was worried about her safety, not a false statement, but more importantly, if she was still involved, it might not only not help, but it would disrupt their position.
In fact, there are only one or five possibilities that Huang Zicheng mentioned just now.
I won’t talk about the national teacher that most people in the world have never seen before. I have no idea where this person came from, nor what kind of resources he has in his hands. If everything is arranged by him at the moment, how likely it is, Xie Songhua can’t calculate and measure it at all.
But the prince can still guess one or two.
After so many years, Xiao Yu's status has been firmly above several princes. With the prince's desire to trap Xiao Yu so quietly, Xie Songhua felt that it was unlikely.
The reason why it is just not that it is impossible is because of the current situation in the court and Jiang Shuhua's behavior that day.
Then, in addition to these two people, Han Jian's words reminded her of the third possibility.
Before Xiao Yu entered the palace, what she said to her was clearly prepared for not being able to come out for several days after entering the palace.
So did he know something in advance?
Xie Songhua sat by the window, thinking about the matter in a daze, but there was no word left.
Suddenly, she suddenly remembered someone in her mind.
I just wanted to call Aunt Lan and remembered that it was so late. Aunt Lan had already gone home.
So early the next morning, she took her people directly to Chenliu's house.
This was the first time she came to Chenliu's house. Because she knew that the place where he lived was narrow, she specially changed to an inconspicuous carriage.
When I arrived at the place, it still attracted the attention of the surrounding neighbors.
Dingxiang went up to knock on the door, and Aunt Chen opened the door with annoyance inside. When she saw that it was Xie Songhua, she was immediately overjoyed. She rubbed her apron with both hands and then smiled flatteringly: "Why is Yao Niang coming? Oh no, it's the princess! Hurry up, princess come in and sit down!"
After greeting Xie Songhua in, he immediately shouted in his throat, "Sanlang is coming out quickly, the princess is here!"
After all, Xie Songhua once lived in a village. Knowing Aunt Chen's nature, he immediately said, "Auntie, there is something important here today. Don't be publicized, otherwise it will be a bad thing if it ruins the prince's affairs."
Aunt Chen was about to go out to buy some food, but she thought to take this opportunity to spread it outside, so that people could know that although her son is not an official now, he is also in contact with noble people.
These days, Aunt Chen's heart was filled with a fire when she was pointed at by those people. This time, Xie Songhua came over, which was like a rain from the sky.
Who knew that Xie Songhua suddenly said something, which made her burning desire to talk suddenly become thoroughly poured.
She quickly smiled and said, "How could it be! But..."
I don’t know why, but the woman in front of me was just looking at her with a smile, but Aunt Chen couldn’t say a single word of quibbling, so the smile on her face became a little embarrassed, "Auntie knows the importance, I will listen to you."
Chen Liu heard his mother's voice and thought he had heard it wrong. When he left the door, he saw Xie Songhua standing in the yard. Only then could he believe it was true.
For a moment, he couldn't help but get rid of it, "Yao... why is the princess here?"
Xie Songhua smiled slightly, "It's been a long time since I saw you."
The passionate flame in Aunt Chen's heart was extinguished by Xie Songhua's words just now, but when he heard the conversation between her son and Xie Songhua, he suddenly woke up again.
Now Yao Niang is a princess, and she is a serious royal relative. If her son wants to be an official, isn’t it just her word?
Now that I have to curry favor with her, I shouldn’t have called her by the former name in Qingshui Town? I should have called her the princess!
Aunt Chen was thinking about whether he should make up for one or two sentences, but suddenly heard Xie Songhua smile and said, "In fact, I am here to find Miss Gao today, and I want to find out some things with her."
The expressions on Aunt Chen and his son's faces suddenly became a little weird because of this sentence.
Dingxiang on the side had long discovered that there seemed to be no third person in the yard that could be seen at this glance.
There was also a wooden basin containing dirty clothes in the corner of the yard. Aunt Chen was obviously washing clothes just now.
