However, Xiao Qing just shook his 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 wanted to practice martial arts and was not willing to learn at all. Now that I think about it, I missed a lot."
Regarding such mysterious and mysterious things, Xie Songhua always maintained an attitude of not believing or denying it, so he did not continue to talk about it.
When we returned to the palace, it was already dark, but before we reached the banquet stage, we were stopped by someone.
Huang Zicheng had not yet taken off his official uniform, so he seemed to have come directly.
When he saw her, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then gave her a clasped fist and saluted, "When I came to the mansion and learned that the princess had not come back, I thought I went to inquire about the prince, but there was no trace of the princess in the Xie Mansion...
"
Xie Songhua didn't want to hide it from him, "I went to the Han Mansion to get some information from Han Jian."
Huang Zicheng was obviously a little surprised about her going to Han Mansion, but it only happened for a moment. He seemed to have figured it out quickly, "Did the princess find out anything?"
Xie Songhua shook his head helplessly, "Han Jian was very vigilant. He only told me not to worry and that the prince would be fine. He didn't say anything else."
Huang Zicheng seemed to be relieved when he heard this.
Xie Songhua couldn't help but said in surprise: "Do you believe what Han Jian said so much?"
Huang Zicheng sneered, "Although that eunuch is full of evil and sinister, but based on my understanding of him, he rarely tells lies."
Unexpectedly, Han Jian was evaluated like this in the opponent's camp.
"Then what did you find out today?"
Huang Zicheng nodded lightly, "On the day when the prince entered the palace, he did go to see His Majesty, but according to the integrated information, the prince was not seen in the Qianyuan Palace since then, and the food sent into the Qianyuan Palace was not brought in or out.
There is no difference in the daily expenses. There is a high probability that the prince is not in Qianyuan Palace, and it is very likely that he left on the first day."
"But when the prince told me at that time, he clearly planned to go in for several days."
Huang Zicheng nodded, "Except for the Imperial Master, no one else entered the palace that day, so I can only think about these two places as to where the prince is going."
One refers to the only Imperial Master who enters the palace, and the other is naturally the prince who does not need to enter the palace.
Judging from what happened when Jiang Shuhua blocked the road, the possibility of the prince is obviously higher.
Xie Songhua told him what happened at that time, and Huang Zicheng just nodded slightly, "I will order you to go down and closely monitor every move in the East Palace. I think there will be results soon."
Monitor the East Palace.
He said these four words as if they were normal, as if he didn't even realize that this was something treasonous.
"But Princess, you'd better not get involved in this matter. What Han Jian said must be justified, and... you have a valuable status. If something goes wrong, after the prince returns, his subordinates will
I really don’t know how to explain this to the prince.”
Xie Songhua opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but when he thought of another thing, he changed his tune and said, "What you are saying is that the most important thing is that I can't actually help much with such a matter.
In the end, the safety of the prince must be entrusted to you."
Sure enough, seeing that she no longer persisted, Huang Zicheng's eyes relaxed obviously.
Xie Songhua didn't feel tired until he entered the banquet stage.
She knew in her heart that Huang Zicheng was not lying when he said he was worried about her safety, but the more important point was that if she was still involved, not only would she not be able to help, but it would actually mess up their position.
In fact, the two possibilities mentioned by Huang Zicheng just now, in Xie Songhua's case, there are only one to five possibilities.
Let’s not talk about the Imperial Master who most people in the world have never seen. They have no idea where this person came from or what kind of resources he has in his hands. If everything at the moment is arranged by him,
How big the possibility is, Xie Songhua is completely unable to calculate and measure.
But the prince can still guess a thing or two.
After so many years, Xiao Yu's status has been firmly above that of several princes. Since the prince wants to trap Xiao Yu so quietly, Xie Songhua thinks it is unlikely.
The reason why I say it is unlikely rather than absolutely impossible is because of the current situation in the DPRK and China and Jiang Shuhua's behavior that day.
Well, besides these two people, Han Jian's words made her think of the third possibility.
What Xiao Yu said to her before entering the palace was clearly that he was prepared for not being able to come out for several days after entering the palace.
So did he already know something in advance?
Xie Songhua sat by the window, thinking about things in a daze, with a pen and paper spread out in front of him, but he didn't write a single word.
Suddenly, someone suddenly came to her mind.
I wanted to call Aunt Lan but I remembered it was so late. Aunt Lan had already gone home.
So early the next morning, she took her people directly to Chen Liu's house.
This was the first time she came back to Chen Liu's house. Because she knew that the place where he lived was small, she specially bought an inconspicuous carriage.
When we arrived at the place, we still attracted the inquiring eyes of the neighbors.
Ding Xiang stepped forward and knocked on the door. Inside, Mrs. Chen opened the door with an irritated look. When she saw it was Xie Songhua, she was immediately overjoyed. She rubbed her hands vigorously on her apron and then said with a flattering smile: "Why is Yao Niang here? Oh.
No, it’s the princess! Come on, come on, princess, come in and sit down!”
After welcoming Xie Songhua in, he immediately shouted inside at the top of his lungs, "San Lang, come out quickly, the princess is here!"
After all, he had lived in a village before, and Xie Songhua knew Aunt Chen's character, so he said immediately: "Auntie, there is something important that I have to do today, and I must not make it public, otherwise I am afraid it will ruin the prince's affairs, and things will not go well.
"
Aunt Chen was about to go out to buy some food, and she thought she would take this opportunity to spread the word and let people know that although her son is not an official now, he still associates with noble people.
Having been pointed out by those people in the past few days, Aunt Chen has been feeling a fire in her heart. This time Xie Songhua came over, it was like rain from heaven to her.
Who would have thought that Xie Songhua suddenly said such a sentence, which suddenly dampened her burning desire to talk.
She quickly smiled and said: "How could it be possible! But..."
I don’t know why, but the woman in front of me just looked at her with a smile, but Aunt Chen couldn’t say a word of those quibbling words, so the smile on her face became a little sarcastic, "Aunt Chen knows the importance.
Just listen to you."
When Chen Liu heard his mother's voice, he thought he heard it wrong. When he walked out of the house, he saw Xie Songhua standing in the yard, and then he dared to believe that it was true.
For a moment, I couldn't help but hesitate, "Yao... why is the princess here?"
Xie Songhua smiled lightly and said, "It's been a long time."
The passionate flame in Aunt Chen's heart was half extinguished by Xie Songhua's words just now, but when she heard the conversation between her son and Xie Songhua, she suddenly came to her senses again.
Today's Yao Niang is a princess, a serious relative of the emperor. If her son wants to be an official, isn't it just a matter of her words?
Now he had to flatter her. He shouldn't have screamed randomly just now, so how could he still call her by her old name in Qingshui Town? She should be called Princess!
Aunt Chen was wondering if she should make up for it with a few words, but suddenly she heard Xie Songhua say with a smile: "Actually, I'm here to see Miss Gao today. I want to ask her about some things."
The expressions on the faces of Aunt Chen, mother and son suddenly became a little weird because of these words.
Ding Xiang, who was on the side, had already discovered that there seemed to be no third person in the yard that could be seen at the end.
There was a wooden basin filled with dirty clothes in the corner of the yard. Aunt Chen was apparently washing clothes just now.
So before the mother and son could speak, she asked doubtfully: "Isn't Miss Gao not in your house?"
