The noble boy likes to play chess

Under the surprised eyes of the two eunuchs, Shu Jing gracefully tore their clothes, tied their hands and feet, and put them aside.Go check out their incense sticks.There is no problem with the incense itself, but some white powder is placed under the incense.Shu Jing used the nail of his little finger to stick a little bit to inspect it carefully, and after that, he looked disgusted and regretful.Then the incense was taken out.

Shu Jing walked up to the two eunuchs and asked in a low voice: "If you are willing to cooperate and ask and answer my questions carefully, just nod and I can let you go."

Shaking his head and nodding, Shu Jing unlocked the dumb acupoint of the nodding eunuch. Unexpectedly, he screamed immediately. Fortunately, Shu Jing was quick and stopped him in time. However, this has already aroused the attention of outsiders. Notice.

"Inside, what are you doing? I don't know if the Second Highness will come to rest later? Hurry up and clean up!" A middle-aged man's voice came.

"Yes! It must be cleaned up properly." Under the terrified eyes of the two eunuchs, Shu Jing replied with the eunuch's voice just now.

Shu Jing glanced at the two of them again, and seeing that the two of them had no intention of cooperating, he directly threw them into the closet. It was a wooden barrel and a box just now. Shu Jing suffered a bit, and he couldn't take it easy on them. .

The white powder under the incense is the antidote to the drug mixed with strong Acacia powder. It is presumed that the second prince wants to catch him in bed with him. After the incense is burned, the powder below can be ignited naturally. At that time, the house There is no one else here, and it is difficult to find evidence of being framed.But, how do they know when the second prince will come?

Who on earth is planning to frame the second prince in this way?

Hearing the sound of someone approaching outside the door, Shu Jing hesitated for a while, not knowing whether to lie on the bed and pretend to be asleep, or hide.In the end, the moment the other party opened the door, he jumped onto the beam.

The man pushed open the door, but was stopped by another person: "This is the second prince's usual room, and it has always been cleaned by a special person, so we can't go in."

The person who pushed the door was obviously still very young, and said timidly, "Thank you, Master, for reminding me."

"Who told you to be my apprentice? However, in previous years, Mr. Xia had done so, but not this year. However, no matter whether the second prince is in Shengjing or not, this room will be prepared for him."

"Master, didn't the princes and princes go to their respective residences later? Why did the second prince stay?" the young man asked suspiciously.

"I don't know about that, but the second prince has no family, so it's the same everywhere."

Will the second prince live here?At noon, he was asked to go back to the house to watch the new year with him. Could it be that he was playing tricks on him?Shu Jing pouted dissatisfiedly.

Seeing that the incense was getting less and less, Shu Jing wondered, is the second prince coming?Will he forget what he said at noon, and really won't go back?

The second prince, who was still at the banquet, had no idea that Shu Jing was already in the palace. Looking at the banquet where the emperor and his ministers were enjoying themselves together, and seeing everyone agreeing and flattering each other, he was the same as in previous years. Order food, drink some wine, occasionally ministers come to toast, and deal with it casually. In previous years, he didn't have much thought, but this year is different. Today, he hopes that the emperor will leave the table earlier, so that he can leave. At this time, he is in I wonder if that kid Shu Jing has ever returned home, and if he gets drunk outside, he must teach him a lesson.

On the other hand, Shu Jing was lying on the beam, and finally realized why they could estimate the time when the second prince would arrive here. On New Year's Eve, there were two banquets in the palace. Officials and family members above the third rank and above, as well as all adult princes, will participate, mainly for dinner; and the latter one is a dinner party, where the emperor, queen and all the concubines of the harem gather in the imperial garden. The concubines of the harem will prepare all kinds of food. The program makes the emperor happy, and accompany the emperor to watch the new year.

The second prince's impression among the officials is that he is a free and undisciplined person, but he behaves very well in front of the emperor, and is deeply favored by the emperor.Well, he would basically leave immediately after the emperor left the table, so they didn't know when the second prince would come, but they knew when the emperor would leave the front hall and go to the harem.

This room is relatively quiet. People came and went in the pavilion outside, and others came after leaving, but there was almost no big movement in Shujing's side. However, this room is only separated from the imperial garden by a wall, and the music from there The sound of gongs and drums can be faintly heard here.

The music, the sound of gongs and drums in the imperial garden?So, the emperor and queen have already arrived at the imperial garden?Looking at the incense on the table, it has already been lit, why hasn't the second prince appeared yet?Could it be that he inferred wrongly?

Not long after, a familiar voice came from outside the door, it was the sixth prince Wen Yang!He seemed to have drunk a lot and yelled not to go back. Another voice comforted him softly and slowly helped him to the door.I only heard her say: "Girl, no outsiders are ever staying in this palace, even if you are the sixth prince's personal servant, it's the same. You should go back earlier, and I will take care of the sixth prince."

Tweety said anxiously: "I can leave His Highness alone like this, why don't I go back."

"I won't go back!" The sixth prince started to object when he heard 'go back'.

"Girl, look, it's His Royal Highness who refuses to go back, you should go back first, otherwise, it would be bad to go back alone in such a dark day."

Tweety didn't care about anything, she pushed open the door and said, "If you want to stay, then stay together, even if you get punished afterwards, I'm willing."

Only then did Shu Jing see that it was a nanny and Cui'er who were supporting the drunken sixth prince. The sixth prince was already very unconscious, with his eyes half-opened and half-closed. As soon as Cui'er entered the door, she said, "Help Your Highness the Sixth Prince to bed and rest. .”

Seeing the empty bed, the nanny flashed a look of surprise, looked around again, and frowned, then her attitude changed a lot, and she said to Tweety: "You want to stay, but in fact It's not impossible, it's just that there are many rules in the palace, you must not wander around, just come to me if you have anything to do, you know? I keep you here privately, if you are found out, but you will be punished, you should take pity on me This old bone."

When Cui'er heard this, she was very grateful, and promised again and again that she would stay here well and not cause trouble.

The nanny smiled and said that the smell of alcohol in the room was too strong, and it was not suitable to open the window in such a cold day, so she took out an incense stick and lit it, which happened to be on the white powder. When it’s time, it’s a small incense that is quickly finished.The nanny walked out of the room with a meaningful smile and closed the door behind her.
