Chapter 56: caught on the spot (2)

  Hearing Xuanyuan Qing's words, Meng Fuying's eyes narrowed slightly. Xuanyuan Qing has great affection for Concubine Rou.

   I heard that Xuanyuan Qing's biological mother passed away early, and Concubine Rou has always taken care of her, and Concubine Rou has always been very kind to her.

   "Concubine Rou, what's the matter, just let someone tell Qinger, why come here in person?" Xuanyuan Qing was still curious that Concubine Rou would come here suddenly?

"Didn't you say you want to adjust the thread? When I embroider things, I use it to adjust the thread, so I brought it here for you." Concubine Rou asked the maid behind her to pass the things over, her words paused slightly , and then asked again, "By the way, what is Qing'er embroidering?"

Xuanyuan Qing was stunned, and said it was embroidery, but she just said it casually. A few days ago, she was too tired to catch up with Meng Fuying's wedding dress, so she didn't rest. Recently, Meng Fuying hid here again, and she was always a little If you are worried, do you have the heart to embroider things?

  When asked by Concubine Rou, she was speechless and could only say casually, "I'm thinking about embroidering something, but I haven't started yet?"

   "Oh, what Qing'er embroidered must be very good. Remember to show me when the time comes." Concubine Rou didn't seem to notice Xuanyuan Qing's strangeness, she smiled lightly.

   "Okay, as long as Concubine Rou doesn't laugh at Qing'er." Xuanyuan Qing secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and whispered a little shyly.

   "Okay, I won't bother you to rest anymore." Concubine Rou sat up for a while, then slowly stood up and said.

   "Qing'er sent off Concubine Rou." Xuanyuan Qing saluted respectfully.

  After seeing Concubine Rou leave, she finally breathed a sigh of relief this time.

   It's just that Meng Fuying, who was hiding in the passage, felt a little heavy. Concubine Rou came running suddenly, was it really just to send something to change the thread?

  Xuanyuan Qing's embroidery skills are notoriously good, is she missing that thing here?

   No matter how simple Concubine Rou is, she can't fail to consider this point, and she personally delivered it just for such a little thing, isn't it a bit of a fuss?

  Although Concubine Rou's words seemed to be unintentional, and every sentence seemed to be for Xuanyuan Qing's sake, but she always felt weird.

  Usually, every time I see Concubine Rou, the first thing that catches my eyes is the kindness and innocence on her face, which makes people bewildered by her temperament.

  However, she was hiding in the dark just now, and couldn't see her expression, her tenderness and simplicity. Just listening to her words, Meng Fuying felt that there seemed to be a bit of sharpness in her words.

  After confirming that Concubine Rou had left, Xuanyuanqing turned on the mechanism again this time, but this time, she didn't open it completely, but only opened a little gap, as long as Meng Fuying could hear her.

  This time, she also took off her outer shirt, lay on the bed, and covered the quilt.

"What do you think Concubine Rou is suspicious of?" Meng Fuying asked tentatively. Xuanyuan Qing is usually very smart, but she is a little emotional, just like her, if Xuanyuan Qing was not too emotional, she would definitely Wouldn't risk hiding her.

"Probably not. Concubine Rou is actually very simple. She usually says what she has, and never hides it. If she finds something, she will definitely ask." Xuanyuan Qing lay on the bed, His eyes were fixed on the bed curtain.

   Simple again! Meng Fuying's eyebrows twitched slightly, but when she heard Xuanyuan Qing's words, she didn't say anything more. According to Xuanyuan Qing's feelings for Concubine Rou, if she spoke ill of Concubine Rou, it would definitely make the relationship between the two of them worse. Conflicts arise between.

  However, she always felt that Concubine Rou had begun to suspect, so for the sake of safety, she had to leave as soon as possible, and she must not let Concubine Rou find out.

"You help me get everything ready, I'm leaving the palace tonight." Meng Fuying's face darkened, and she said in a cold voice, originally she was a little worried about Xuanyuan Ye, but today, Concubine Rou's actions made her unable to care So many.

   "What? You are leaving the palace today? Didn't you say to wait a few more days?" Xuanyuan Qing was startled, sat up quickly, and exclaimed in a low voice.

"It's not much different from waiting two more days now." Meng Fuying didn't explain much. If Xuanyuan Ye wanted to give up, then after so many days, he should have given up. If he didn't want to give up, no matter how long he waited, It's the same.

   Of course, the most important thing is that she can't wait any longer now.

   "Well, then I know." Xuanyuan Qing replied in a low voice, with a bit of worry in her voice, as if she still felt a little bit reluctant.

  In the palace of King Yi.

   "My lord, it has been eight days since the troops were withdrawn, and there is still no news. Do you want to continue to defend?" Su Feng looked at Xuanyuan Ye who was sitting in the hall, and asked in a low voice.

  Cheetah people can't guard the city gate every day, but there are still many things waiting for them to do?

   "Shou." Xuanyuan Ye replied straight without the slightest hesitation, there is no reason to withdraw troops until that woman appears.

   "But, maybe Ms. Meng feels that the city is safe now, and she doesn't want to go out of the city. Isn't it a waste of manpower for us to keep guard?" Su Feng paused, then whispered again.

  Usually, he would never have any objection to Xuanyuan Ye's order, but this time, His Highness did so...

   "One day, she will leave the city." Xuanyuan Ye twitched his brows slightly, moved his lips slightly, and said slowly.

  He knew that the reason why the woman didn't move was because she was worried and wanted to observe for a while, so during this period of time, he ordered everyone not to make any abnormal movements, so as not to startle the snake.

  That woman must be waiting, and when she thinks it is safe, she will naturally leave the city.

  No defense, he has time to spend slowly with her.

   Someday? Sufeng was stunned, one day, which day will it be, one day, ten days, one month, or one year, if she doesn't show up for a year, it's hard to be a member of the organization, and she will hide outside the city for a year ?

   "My lord, when will we wait?" Su Feng thought for a moment, then said slightly again, "Why don't you withdraw the people outside the city first, leaving only Liu Yue guarding the city gate?"

  Xuanyuan Ye's eyes flickered slightly, the corners of his lips pulled slightly again, and he said slowly again, "Everything is as usual, whenever she appears, we will wait until that time."

  His voice was very low, but there was an undeniable determination.

Although Su Feng was too worried, he didn't dare to protest any more, but suddenly remembered something, and said again, "The subordinates have noticed that there seems to be something unusual with the prince recently, and he seems to be looking for someone? We mobilized people from outside the city to come to the capital."

  Xuanyuan Ye narrowed his eyes slightly, and a few strands of ice quickly passed through the depths of his eyes, "Send someone to investigate."

  The crown prince can't move people to Beijing for no reason. If someone finds out, the crime is not light, so there must be something very special.

Find someone? Who is he looking for? Could it be her?

  Could it be that the prince...

  Because of the thought that flashed through his mind, Xuanyuan Ye's body was suddenly startled, and he ordered again in a cold voice, "Let the rain and thunder organize the prince secretly."

  If the person the prince is looking for is her, then the matter will be serious.

   "Yes." Su Feng answered very frankly this time, and walked out quickly as soon as he finished speaking.

  In the hall, Xuanyuan Ye's eyes slowly revealed a little bit of worry and nervousness, hoping that his judgment was wrong.

  In the palace.

   It was still midnight, after everyone fell asleep, Meng Fuying crawled out this time.

"Today, I deliberately asked someone to check outside the city gate secretly, and found nothing unusual. I believe Brother Seven's people have really withdrawn. After all, Brother Seven still has a lot of things to do." Xuanyuan Qing whispered said, and then handed her the prepared things.

   "Yes, I see. Thank you, Qing'er." Meng Fuying took the things and smiled in a low voice, with a bit of reluctance in her sincere voice, but now she had to leave.

   Quickly changed into the clothes that Xuanyuan Qing had prepared for her. It seemed that Xuanyuan Qing had put her heart into it. The clothes just fit, as if they were specially made for her.

  As for the other disguises, she couldn't light the lamps here at the moment, so she couldn't see them, so she put away the pony tail and dye, waited out the palace, found a place, and then slowly transformed it.

"With me, do you still need to be so polite?" Xuanyuan Qing murmured with slightly raised lips, but, looking into her eyes, there was obvious worry, and she couldn't help but whispered, "You go out After that, you must be careful."

   "Don't worry, nothing will happen." Meng Fuying patted her shoulder lightly, comforting her in a low voice.

"Okay, I'm leaving." For some reason, Meng Fuying was always worried and felt that there seemed to be a dangerous atmosphere around her, so she didn't want to waste any more time here. The dry food that Xuanyuan Qing had prepared for her was about to leave.

   "So urgent?" Xuanyuan Qing was stunned this time, feeling a little strange, and couldn't help asking in a low voice.

   "Hehe... I'm afraid that the friction will continue. You don't want me. It will be bad if you cry." Meng Fuying didn't explain, but made a half-hearted joke.

   "No one is serious." Xuanyuan Qing gave her a hard look, and then smiled lightly.

  Meng Fuying suddenly opened her arms, quickly embraced Xuanyuan Qing, gave her a tight hug, and then quickly jumped out.

Still following the way she came in last time, Meng Fuying avoided the patrolling guards, and quietly went to the corner. Thinking of the man in black last time, she felt a little worried in her heart, for fear that she would run into him again today. When climbing over the wall, I observed it quietly first, and after not finding anything unusual, I quickly jumped out.

Xuanyuan Qing waited until Meng Fuying left, stood in front of the window and watched for a while, thinking that she might have left the palace, and then returned to the bed, but, because she was worried, she couldn't fall asleep anyway, her eyes stared straight at Facing the bed curtain, a heart is also tightly hanging.

  Suddenly, Xuanyuan Qing was startled when she heard a slight sound from the door, thinking to herself, could it be that Yinger didn't escape and came back?

  Thinking of this, I felt a little happy, and just wanted to get up, but suddenly remembered that when Yinger came last time, he came in through the window, why did he come in through the front door this time?

  Having doubts in his heart, he didn't dare to move, but lay quietly on the bed, his eyes were staring straight at the door.

  The door of the room opened bit by bit, and Xuanyuan Qing's heart sank bit by bit.

   When the door opened to a certain width, a man in black suddenly came in.

  Although the room was a little dark at the moment, Xuanyuan Qing still judged from the figure that the person was not Meng Fuying, and suddenly froze in shock, subconsciously wanting to shout out.

  However, before she could yell out, that person quickly came to the bed, quickly touched her sleeping point, and Xuanyuan Qing immediately lost consciousness.

  Actually, that person didn't know that Xuanyuan Qing hadn't slept yet, but he lit Xuanyuan Qing's sleeping point just to be on the safe side.

  He moved Xuanyuan Qing outward a little, then got on the bed, pressed slightly on the wall, and the passage slowly opened.

Then he quickly got into the passage, only a moment later, he turned back, glanced at Xuanyuan Qing on the bed, obviously a little unwilling, then searched in every corner of the room, after all, there was nothing Find,

   Only then did he quickly leave the room.

  After Meng Fuying left the palace, she was still a little worried, so she checked briefly, and really didn't see any guards, nor did she find anything unusual.

  However, she still didn't dare to be careless. It's the middle of the night. Although it doesn't appear on the surface, it doesn't mean there isn't in the dark.

  According to her skills, it is no problem to climb over the city wall, but once there is an ambush outside the city, she will fall into the trap.

  So, in comparison, she still chose to go out through the city gate.

  However, it is night now, and the city gate has been closed, so we can only wait until dawn.

  After the sky lightened slightly, Meng Fuying found a mirror, and slowly disguised herself.

She always remembers that her opponent is Xuanyuan Ye, so she can't be careless. She gently rubs those dyes on her hair. In fact, the so-called dyes are just like modern paints. Once rubbed on, it turns white.

  It is impossible to really change the color of hair like modern hair dyeing.

   Just right, the paint is a bit grayish, not pure white, and it feels very natural after it is painted.

  In ancient times, an old man in his sixties or seventies looked very old, his hair and beard were almost all white, but her hair and beard were just right.

   Then she rubbed some potion on her handle, and after a while, a layer of old 'wrinkles' appeared on her smooth face.

  Similarly, she also made a layer of 'wrinkles' on her hands and arms that might be exposed outside.

  She even applied a layer of potion on her own neck, and wrinkles appeared on that neck immediately.

   At a glance, he looks like a real old man.

  Meng Fuying's lips slowly pulled out a satisfied chuckle, but following her chuckle, what was pulled out at this moment was a face full of wrinkles, and she no longer had that peerless beauty.

  Meng Fuying was stunned. If she waited until she was sixty or seventy years old, would she really become like this?

  However, the effect was really good. At this moment, she couldn't even recognize herself.

  Meng Fuying found another crutch, and with a slight load on her back, she walked slowly to the street. Step by step, walk slowly.

  She walked very slowly, because if you were so young and then walked like flying, you would definitely attract suspicion.

  Now, she is not in a hurry anymore, she can't even recognize herself in her current appearance, and she doesn't believe that Xuanyuan Ye can recognize her, not to mention, her walking posture is very similar.

  Many passers-by saw her, and they all consciously made way for her. Some of them were enthusiastic, and even helped her carefully, telling her to be careful.

   It can be seen how realistic her disguise is at the moment.

  The sun slowly rose, and the streets became more and more lively. Meng Fuying walked slowly, but with a pair of eyes, she carefully observed everything around her.

  However, nothing unusual was found.

  The place where she started originally was very close to the city gate, so it didn't take long before she saw the city gate. Meng Fuying's hand tightly held the crutch in her hand, trying her best to calm herself down.

   Following the crowd, they slowly walked towards the city gate.

At this time, the most people went out of the city. A young man, carrying a package on his back, also hurried towards the gate of the city. When he saw Meng Fuying walking with some difficulty, he couldn't bear it, so he walked forward , gently helped her up, and said very enthusiastically, "Old man, be careful, let me help you."

   "Well, thank you, the young man is really good." Meng Fuying slowly raised her head, looked at the young man, and said in a low voice.

  The young man's face was full of vigor, with the gentleness and elegance of a scholar, and his appearance was also very outstanding.

   It's really rare, such a good-looking, and such a kind-hearted.

  Meng Fuying now likes that young man from the bottom of her heart, because this young man helped her a lot by supporting her at this time, and this is an extremely beneficial cover.

  They look like a pair of grandparents and grandchildren at the moment, so naturally they will not arouse suspicion.

  Even if Xuanyuan Ye bumped into her right now, she probably wouldn't doubt it.

   "This young man is really filial." Other passersby, seeing the young man supporting Meng Fuying, couldn't help but praise.

   "Yes, it's really rare." Someone echoed in a low voice.

"The atmosphere of our Xuanyuan Dynasty is good, especially under the rule of His Royal Highness, the capital is becoming more and more prosperous, and the lives of the people are getting better and better." A middle-aged man expressed his feelings, and the voice was extremely sincere , doesn't look like a flatterer.

   "Yes, yes, Your Highness the Seventh is really thinking about our people." The other person also echoed again and again, also with a sincere face.

   "Don't look at His Highness the Seventh Highness who is usually cold, but his heart is very good, and it will be even better for us people." The young man who supported Meng Fuying also smiled slightly.

  Meng Fuying was stunned, isn't he, that man is so popular?

   That man who is usually as cold as a rock is really as kind as they say? Is that the man they were talking about?

   Thinking about it, he had already arrived at the city gate.

  There are only a few guards who usually stand guard at the city gate, and there are no other people guarding it.

  The guards didn't check the people who left the city one by one, let alone asked about their identities, so the people in front all left very smoothly, and soon they arrived at Meng Fuying.

  Meng Fuying was still supported by the young man, and slowly approached the city gate, step by step, approaching, approaching.

   Soon to be out of town.

  Meng Fuying couldn't help feeling a little more excited, it's great, it's great, it's finally time to leave the city.

   "Stop." But, just as she was about to step out of the city gate, a cold voice suddenly came and smashed into her ear.

  Meng Fuying's body froze suddenly, as if she had fallen into a thousand-year-old ice cave, she froze instantly.

   No way...

  Why is he here?
