“…”

After lunch, Yingying was about to leave the East Palace.

After autumn began, the weather was a little cooler. Xiaodai helped her pick a dark coat and tied it. To be on the safe side, she also put a hood on Yingying. In fact, this kind of dress would attract the attention of others, but she had to wear it like this.

Zhao Shi would leave the palace at Xuande Gate. Yingying picked up a remote path and the carriage that came out of the palace had not yet come out. She looked around and looked at the location that was close and difficult to find, and waited there early.

The entire Xuande Gate was deserted and when the carriage appeared swayingly, no one stopped.

Yingying waited for a while before Zhao Shi walked slowly in his dark clothes. Yi Fei was only followed by him. His wide hood blocked Zhao Shi's face, and Yingying couldn't see his face clearly for a while.

It should be lonely and sad.

The prince, who was once extremely noble, was deposed, but now no one sees him off when he leaves. Even the fifth and eighth princes who were once close to him did not appear. The palace is in a bad and profitable way and always stabs several times when people are most vulnerable.

"Zhaoshi..." Yingying looked at the figure in front of her and called out his name very gently.

She suddenly hopes that Zhao Shi of her previous life will end like this. She will go far away and take root there from then on, and will no longer have to participate in intrigues and intrigues in the imperial city. But she has never come to see him off in the previous life. In this life, she will leave behind the interests between the two of them and leave behind. Yingying only hopes that Zhao Shi will be good.

"Let's go, don't come back after you leave." Yingying rubbed her eyes and whispered to herself as she said to Zhao Shi.

The wind has not stopped, and Yingying’s eyes hurt.

She carefully closed the hem of her raised clothes with her hands, and patiently waited for Zhao Shi to leave in the carriage, but Zhao Shi seemed to be waiting for something, standing alone next to the carriage and never got on the carriage.

Yingying was only looking at Zhao Shi, but she didn't notice that the ribbon on her skirt was not closed. Yifei was very sensitive to the abnormality around her. When he approached Zhao, he whispered in his ear, Zhao Shi suddenly looked up and looked around. Yingying secretly screamed that it was not good, so she quickly asked Xiaodai to help him close the hem of the skirt.

"Help me pull it back!" Yingying put her hands together with her large skirt, and she was about to float out.

The wind was too strong now. Yingying couldn't take back the thin ribbon, so she could only ask Xiaodai for help. Xiaodai, who was usually clever, was only helping him. When she went to grab the floating ribbon, she knelt on the stone. Instead, she didn't catch the ribbon, but she even knocked it out.

"Xiao Dai!" Yingying stomped her feet. When she saw Zhao, she had noticed this place and quickly pulled Xiao Dai up from the ground.

She pulled Xiaodai and was about to run, but forgot that her legs were still sore and hurt. After running a few steps, she hissed and slowed down. Zhao Shi chased her a few steps, turned over Yingying's shoulders and lifted her cloak.

"I knew it was you." Zhao Shi's blood-tight eyes turned redder when he saw Yingying.

Yingying was caught by him, and was about to step on his feet in order to break free, Zhao Shi asked her with a slight voice: "...Qinrong, is he good to you?"

Yingying thought that with his personality, he would not want to see her, or asked her in a bad tone if she was coming to see him for a joke. She never thought that he would ask like this, just like a basin of hot water poured on Yingying's head, making her body warm and uncomfortable. She froze in place for a long time before nodding and said, "It's pretty good."

It's really good. After all, they are so generous that they asked her to send the former prince. As for how long this will last, Yingying doesn't know, after all, they have only been married for a few days.

Zhao Shi saw that her cheeks were white and tender, and she didn't look like she was suffering. She nodded and didn't ask any more questions. Yingying really knew Zhao Shi, because his second sentence was: "What are you doing?"

"Come to see me for a joke?"

In fact, Zhao Shi said this, not really thinking this way. He actually just wanted to know why Yingying came to see him. Yingying understood what he wanted to hear and said to the truth: "I just want to come and see you."

"Zhaoshi, Luo'an has a long journey. I hope you will be safe and worry-free all the way."

Zhao Shi's eyes became redder. He suddenly hugged Yingying and said viciously: "Whether I can be safe and worry-free depends on whether your prince brother is willing to let me go!"

How could Yingying understand that even if he has become the deposed prince and goes to the southwest, the people in the imperial city will not let him go. Even if Qin Rong doesn't take action, other forces will definitely take action. Looking at the worst result... Maybe Emperor Wu Cheng still wants him to have some accidents on the road.

So where does peace and worry come from? In fact, this sentence is not a blessing but the greatest irony. How can he understand his stupid Yingying?

Zhao Shi closed his eyes and felt Yingying resisting his arms.

"Don't move."

Zhao Shi said hoarsely: "I'll tell you a secret."

"Do you know why I have to use that method to protect the position of prince against you?" Yingying was not wrong. Zhao Shi was indeed hiding part of the truth when he confessed to her.

In fact, according to Zhao Shi's personality, he may not be able to resist telling Yingying when he learned about Feng's fate. Before implementing such means, he would ask Yingying whether she would choose him to help him seize the throne.

"Because I know that even if you agree, your aunt will not stand on my side."

"Yingying, do you remember what I said to you when I was drunk? I said that my mother died unjustly, and she died unjustly, because she was not dying of illness but was killed by someone, and the person who killed her..."

Zhao Shi paused slightly and deliberately slowed down his words, "It's your good aunt, the current emperor, queen, mother, mother."

Let me ask, who would help her enemy ascend to the throne? Not only would she not help Zhaoshi, she would also join forces with Qinrong to stomp him hard, it would be better to step him into the soil and never turn over, so that they could rest assured.

...So, is this the truth that caused the change of the times?

The hot water just now turned into cold water, pouring Yingying into the bones. Yingying's shoulders trembled slightly, she shook her head to grab Zhaoshi's arm, and spit out a few words: "I don't believe it!"

Yingying trusts her aunt. Even if her aunt is quite capable as the queen, she will not turn around and smile at Zhaoshi's mother after killing Zhaoshi's mother. With her temperament, she will not leave Zhaoshi.

"Who told you this?"

Yingying suspected that Zhao Shi was being used. The first person she thought of was Qin Rong, so she asked directly: "Did Qin Rong tell you?"

Zhao Shi pulled the corner of his mouth and sneered, "Who told me what is important? What is important is that all the evidence of what I said."

Although Xuande Gate was deserted, no one passed by. Zhao Shi saw that there were already palace maids looking at this place. He reached out to help Yingying put on a hood, and touched her cheek with a cold hand, "I have kept your blessings."

"I will definitely arrive in Luo'an and come back."

"It's just when I come back, Yingying, I hope you don't blame me."

If he can come back, he will not let Gu Manru and Qin Rong go, and one of these two is Yingying's aunt and the other is Yingying's prince's brother.

Zhao Shi turned around and quickly got onto the carriage. This time he did not wait or look back, because from then on, he and Yingying will be completely from two worlds.

"Zhaoshi..." Yingying called him.

She chased forward for two steps and felt a pain in her legs, and she sniffed and called him twice. Xiaodai couldn't bear to see Yingying like this, so she held Yingying and persuaded, "Why are you doing this? Even if you call the prince, what can you say?"

Yes, what if she shouted Zhao Shi's name over and over again? What if Zhao Shi stopped and looked back at her? They couldn't go back, and they would never go back. This time it was not Yingying who didn't forgive Zhao Shi, but Zhao Shi didn't want her anymore.

It turns out that after rebirth, it is not only Yingying that changed, but everyone has changed... everyone has changed.

Yingying watched the carriage drive out of the palace, and she couldn't help crying again.

"Miss, don't cry..." Xiaodai panicked and hurriedly took out a veil to help Yingying wipe her tears.

Yingying felt so uncomfortable. She hugged Xiaodai and cried, "...I regret it, I really regret it."

After asking for a hundred years of adulthood, Yingying regrets the most now that she is a human being. When a person is too bitter, she has to suffer all the ups and downs of love and separation. Only then did she realize how free she was when she harmed people in her previous life. It was because she didn't care about the signs, so she didn't know how much suffering and sorrow he had in his previous life.

Hurt others and yourself.

“…”

East Palace, in the study.

The secret guard was talking in detail about what had just happened in Xuandemen. When he learned that Yingying was crying with Xiaodai for a long time, Qin Rong's hand holding the pen paused slightly, and a drop of red ink fell on the drawing paper.

"You said... the princess was crying?" Qin Rong stared at the drawing paper on the table, and saw a beautiful girl with curved eyebrows and smiles on it, which was nine points similar to Yingying.

The ink just fell on the eyebrows of Yingying. Qin Rong put a few strokes on her eyebrows with her sleeves, and asked lightly: "Why are you crying?"

The secret guard looked at Qiu Yu who was sitting beside him, lowered his head and said with difficulty: "King Anping should have said something to the Empress, and his subordinates... could not hear it."

"It's my subordinates' dereliction of duty!"

Qin Rong smiled coldly. He didn't look at the secret guard or Qiu Yu, but just stared at the woman in the painting. He gently swept the eyes of the woman in the painting with his fingertips. Qin Rong smiled on his lips and said, "You have not dereliction of duty. It was King Anping who hugged the lonely princess. He put it in her ear and spoke, so how could you hear it?"

When Zhao Shi deliberately lowered his voice, even Xiao Dai, who was very close to the two, might not be able to hear what Zhao Shi said to Yingying.

"Where has she been?"

The secret guards didn't dare to speak, "Empress... went to Fengkun Palace."

Qin Rong didn't respond and added a few more strokes to the painting: "Please withdraw everyone."

The secret guard took the order and retreated, and then Qin Rong looked at the painting on the table for a long time and didn't start writing again.

The study room has a very good lighting, with warm light reflected on his delicate side face, flawless and gentle like beautiful jade. Qiu Yu sat opposite Qin Rong, and his eyes swept over the beautiful flowers blooming between the girl's eyebrows in the painting, and closed his right hand and said, "How is Your Highness going to deal with Prince Qing's affairs?"

"Who did he tell all that?"

Qiu Yu tapped the table with his fingers and recalled: "Fifth Prince, Eighth Prince, Second Prince, Oh, and Zhang."

The fifth prince and the eighth prince are from Zhaoshi. At present, there is no movement on the fifth prince, and the eighth prince is obviously unable to sit still.

Of course, the second prince and Zhang were the ones who reacted the most fiercely. Zhang saw Zhao Shi falling down. Because of Yingying, he could not return to Qin Rong, so he turned to Prince Qing and also won over the second prince.

Qin Rong's eyebrows and eyes were a little cold, and she said calmly: "The prince's mouth is really not small."

That thing is nothing else, it is about Yingyingfeng's fate. Those who win Yingying will win the world. Since Yingying has married Qin Rong, they will naturally be destroyed if they don't get it. Once Yingying is gone, the court will be reshuffled. At that time, everyone will rely on their abilities to the throne.

Qiu Yu has been sending people to monitor Prince Qing's movements. He frowned and said, "The group of private soldiers Zhang Chunyang is currently active frequently, and they have contact with the assassins around Prince Qing."

After Gu Lingxiao's incident came out, Zhang Chun lost a legitimate daughter and lost his own brother. He naturally hated the Gu family. Now everyone's fingers are aimed at Yingying, and Zhang will naturally not let go after seizing this opportunity.

Qin Rong knew that Yingying was not peaceful these days, so he pondered for a moment and said, "Then let's start with Zhang Chun."

No matter what Prince Qing wants to do, he always has to help Yingying remove the most dangerous ones first.

Qiu Yu recorded it, which was as expected. Although the assassination of Jin Mantang pointed directly at Prince Qing, Qiu Yu always felt something was wrong. The assassin was not caught for a day, and the Dali Temple and the Ministry of Justice could not stop for a moment. Qiu Yu came here today and wanted to ask Yingying for some details, but I thought I would not see her recently.

"Your Highness thinks, what will King Anping say to the Empress?" Qiu Yu asked out loud.

Qin Rong raised her eyes and looked at Qiu Yu, her attitude was not too volatile.

Youyan put down the purple gold jade tube in his hand, and stood up straight with his hands behind his back: "After asking, you will know."

It was almost time to go, and it was time for him to pick up his little princess back.
