Chapter 99: masked

    Since I can't walk through the gate, I don't know if it is feasible to climb over the wall.

    Thinking like this, Wen Chi performed light work and flew towards the wall next to the gate.

    Seeing that he was about to fly to the top of the wall, at this moment, his figure suddenly froze, and then a pair of invisible hands suddenly grabbed his feet, leaving him in the air The middle stopped abruptly.

    The warm pool went straight down.

    Fortunately, he turned his body in time and supported the ground with one hand, so that he would not fall down in embarrassment.

    He seems to be trapped in this bamboo flute curie by an invisible wall.

    Until Ruofang heard the sound and came over, she looked curiously at Wen Chi, who was sitting on the ground panting: "Master, what are you doing?"

    Wen Chi shook his head in disappointment: "Nothing."

    Ruofang remembered what happened this morning, she was both happy and a little puzzled. After holding it for a long time, she still couldn't help asking: "Master, are you really not leaving?"

    Wen Chi sighed and gave a low hum.

    The main reason is that he can't leave if he wants to, so he can only stay in the East Palace shamelessly.

     Ruofang, who got this answer, was very happy: "Very good, son, tomorrow, the servant will go to tell Eunuch Zhu, in the past, His Royal Highness was so kind to the son, there must be something in the middle. Misunderstanding, just clear up the misunderstanding."

    Wen Chi thought about it for a while, but he didn't object to Ruofang's words, he smiled at Ruofang: "Then it will be hard for you."

    No matter how early or late, the news that he did not leave the East Palace will definitely reach Shi Ye's ears, it is better for him to take the initiative and go to Shi Ye to make it clear.

    Just what reason should he use?

    At this moment, Wen Chi suddenly had an impulse in his heart, he wanted to tell Shi Ye about the wish stone - but this impulse was just born, and he suppressed it again.

    After Wen Chi sent Ruofang away, he was ready to go back to his room to rest.

    He just walked a few steps, when he suddenly noticed something, turned his head suddenly, and before his brain could react, his body had already operated lightly and flew over.

    Through the dense branches, he saw a tall figure standing on the branch at a glance.

    Wen Chi didn't say anything, just made a move.

    The man didn't seem to expect Wen Chi to come up and do it, he was stunned for a moment, and when Wen Chi's hand was about to touch his body, he hurriedly dodged to avoid Wen Chi's attack.

    Wen Chi continued to make moves.

    The man continued to dodge, he didn't mean to fight with Wen Chi, he turned around and wanted to fly away, who knew that Wen Chi guessed that he would do this, and blocked his way before him .

    Every move of Wen Chi took eight/nine points of strength, but unfortunately he is not very aggressive. Fortunately, he moves quickly. If the opponent fails to respond in time, he will be beaten by him. Unprepared.

    The man has been avoiding, from this branch to that branch, and from that branch to this branch, seeing Wen Chi always entangled, suddenly hit Wen Chi with a backhand chest.

    Then Wen Chi focused all his attention on the attack, and he was pushed abruptly. Wen Chi, who had never had actual combat experience, was actually at a loss.

    At the moment when Wen Chi was stunned, his footsteps of light work were obviously paused, and the next moment he fell straight down.

    When the man standing on the branch saw this, he flew down immediately. He put his arms around Wen Chi's waist, turned in the air, and finally landed steadily.

    Wen Chi was so frightened that his face turned pale, and his heart almost jumped out of his throat.

    Wen Chi looked up at the man: "Thank you."

    At this time, Wen Chi saw clearly that the man's face was covered with a layer of black cloth, and the scattered black hair almost covered his forehead and eyes. He was wearing pure black clothes. The whole person almost merged with this hazy night.

    After hearing Wen Chi's words, the man nodded silently, not intending to speak.

    Wen Chi twitched the tip of his nose lightly, sniffed in the air, and smelled the familiar light fragrance - only Shi Ye had this kind of fragrance.

    Of course, this is not the key to Wen Chi guessing his identity.

    The key is—

    Since you want to hide your identity, then you have to dress up... What's the matter with just covering your face and wearing black?

    Anyone with eyes can recognize you as the prince!

    For a while, Wen Chi suddenly thought of the TV series Huanzhugege he had watched before, where the two male protagonists used a black cloth to cover their faces when they were about to rob a prison car to save the two female protagonists. Played.

    Anyone who has seen them can recognize their identity in a second...

    Wen Chi thought it was a scene only in the TV series, but now that he saw it with his own eyes, he was a little messy.

    After the mess, he blurted out and said, "I didn't expect His Royal Highness to be so elegant. If His Royal Highness has something to ask me, you can come in through the gate openly and honestly, and you don't have to hide behind a tree."

    Shi Ye was stunned: "Do you recognize Ben Gong?"

    Wen Chi: “…”

    At this time, Ruofang, who had been sent away by Wenchi, ran back and said, "Sir, this servant just went to prepare some refreshments, since you can't sleep, why don't you eat some? Go back to sleep for refreshment..."

    Before she finished speaking, Ruofang suddenly saw Shi Ye standing in front of Wen Chi, and her voice stopped abruptly.

    Soon, Ruofang's expression became visibly flustered, she held the tray at a loss, and lowered her head as if she had seen a ghost: "His Royal Highness forgiveness! …”

    Shi Ye: "…"

    Although Shi Ye didn't speak, his stiff reaction for a long time was enough to show his mood at this moment.

    Not waiting for Ruofang to say the next sentence, Shi Ye flew away like a butterfly, and in the blink of an eye, he disappeared from the sight of Wen Chi and Ruofang.

    Ruofang looked bewildered and turned to look at Wen Chi: "Young Master, His Royal Highness, what's wrong?"

    Wen Chi picked up a piece of pastry from the tray and stuffed it into his mouth. After swallowing, he said, "We ran away with anger."

    Ruofang: "Huh?"

    Wen Chi shook his head, turned and walked into the room.

    For the next few days, Wen Chi still stayed in Zhudiju.

    Although he didn't step out of the bamboo flute residence, he heard some news from the little eunuchs who were serving him—a lot of people were dismissed from the East Palace, and the wife and son who stayed behind added There were no more than five people, including Wenchi, a nail-biting household.

    As a nail householder, Wen Chi naturally has the self-consciousness of nail households, and he is ready to be questioned by Eunuch Zhu at any time.

    How many days have passed, Wen Chi did not wait for Eunuch Zhu, but the news that Concubine Rong was going to the villa to relax.

    Originally, this matter had nothing to do with Wen Chi, but when he received the invitation letter from Concubine Rong arranged by the little eunuch, this matter had something to do with him.

    Since the death of Queen Hua, the harem has been in a state of no owner, and Concubine Rong, who has the highest status and is most favored by the emperor, has assumed the responsibility of the queen.

    When the snow falls at the end of each year, Concubine Rong will organize the female relatives inside and outside the palace to go to the villa to enjoy the snow and relax.

    It's just that the emperor has been seriously ill in the past two years, and the situation is special. Concubine Rong has not organized such an activity for a long time. Perhaps this year, she saw that people's hearts were unstable, so she wanted to take this opportunity to stabilize everyone's emotions.

    Wen Chi asked the little **** to inquire, only to learn that the remaining five survivors in the East Palace had received the invitation of Concubine Rong.

    In a blink of an eye, the day of departure arrived.

    Wen Chi didn't really want to go to the villa. To be precise, he didn't really want to go to the villa with that group of people, so he planned to pretend to be sick to fool him. As a result, Concubine Rong sent him directly without saying hello. Two little eunuchs came over.

    With the warm invitation of the two little eunuchs, Wen Chi, who had not had time to pretend to be sick, could not find any reason not to go, so he had to let Ruofang and Ruotao clean up briefly, and then followed him with him go out.

    The horse-drawn carriage procession to the villa was huge, forming a magnificent long dragon on the lively street.

    Everyone's position was also arranged by Concubine Rong in an orderly manner.

    As the prince's person, Wen Chi should ride in the same carriage with the prince's people.

    So when Wen Chi climbed into the carriage, he saw Laurel sitting listlessly in the corner at first sight.

    Yuegui lost a lot of weight, and she no longer had the high spirits she used to be, and she looked preoccupied.

    Because I hadn't seen him for so long, Wen Chi almost didn't recognize Laurel, he quietly glanced at the familiar face several times before remembering Laurel's name.

    However, what surprised Wen Chi was that Yuegui was actually one of the five people who stayed, not that he thought that Yuegui should leave, but that he had heard that Yuegui was punished and only hanged In one breath, I didn't expect to persist until now.

    Obviously, Yuegui also recognized Wen Chi. After seeing Wen Chi, he who had been listless suddenly became tense, his eyes were full of undisguised vigilance and precaution, even a momentary On the way, they were staring nervously at Wen Chi.

    Wen Chi was helpless, she simply closed her eyes and rested, seeing nothing is pure.

    The villa is located halfway up the mountain. The more you go up the mountain, the thicker the snow on the road and the more bumpy the carriage.

     Laurel, who was sitting on the opposite side, had been turned ashen, and he had retched in front of the car window several times. very familiar.

    Yuegui said quietly: "You are really amazing."

    Wen Chi didn't fall asleep. After hearing Yuegui's voice, she thought that Yuegui was talking about him saying that he didn't get motion sickness, so he said, "It's okay."

     Laurel said: "You are really not humble."

    Wen Chi: "..." What's so humble about this?

    He just finished thinking this, when he heard Yuegui speak again: "I used to naively thought that after you left for two or three years, His Royal Highness would slowly forget your existence. There is still a place for you in the East Palace."

    "..." Wen Chi was silent for a moment, with a complicated expression, "There is something you don't know."

    "What?"

    "Prince Ben let me go."

    “…”

    "But I'm stuck."

    “…”

    Wen Chi smiled: "The prince can't take me."

    "..." Laurel's face was contorted with anger, "You, how can you do this! You are playing a rogue!"

    Wen Chi smiled and said, "How can I ride in the same carriage with you? Fate is really wonderful."

    After he finished speaking, he winked at Laurel in anger.

     Laurel almost vomited a mouthful of old blood.

    When the mighty team arrived at the villa, it was already dark outside.

    The little **** in the palace stood outside the carriage with a lantern, and asked Wen Chi and Yuegui to get off the carriage in a shrill voice.

    Wen Chi followed Ruofang Ruotao out of the carriage, stepping on the soft snow, making a creaking sound.

    It was still snowing when they set off, and the snow has long since stopped.

    However, the snow on the ground is very thick. Looking around, I can see that the earth is covered in silver, and the dark white snow extends forward until it is covered in the hazy night.

    Wen Chi lacked interest, and lowered his eyebrows and lowered his hands, waiting for Concubine Rong's arrangement, but Laurel in the carriage was full of interest, and even forgot to beware of Wen Chi, Happy as a bird.

    Only Yuegui was happy for a while when she heard a clear voice from behind: "Master Wen!"

     Laurel's body froze, and the smile on her face disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye.

    Wen Chi turned his head following the voice, and saw a handsome young man walking around from the back of a carriage, he walked very fast, and said with a smile: "So you are in It's really easy for me to find it here, I finally asked the **** in charge of your location."

    Wen Chi was stunned for a while, then remembered that this person was not Lin Yu?
