Hualuo Chang'an

In the next few days, Luo Changxi did not enter the palace anymore. Anyway, she was injured, so she simply excused her illness and recuperated in the palace.

As for the assassination that night, Luo Changxi also had some thoughts.She probably guessed a little bit of what Qu Yiliu hadn't said before he died.

perhaps……

Probably apart from the two hidden stakes in the capital, the person who is most likely to have people from Eagle Castle is——

Palace.

Moreover, this person in the palace should not be underestimated, much more powerful than Su Wuniang and Qu Yiliu.I'm afraid that this person was also the one who plotted against Luo Changxi during the autumn hunt.Later, this man killed Qu Yiliu and ambushed Luo Changxi and Gong Yining in the palace.Fortunately, they were lucky, but every time they saved themselves from danger.

But also because Luo Changxi had confronted this person several times, Luo Changxi also got some subtle clues.

"That person is a woman."

"Ah?" Gong Yining was taken aback when she heard it, "It's actually a woman?"

"Not bad." Luo Changxi said again, "And it's a young woman."

"How do you know?" Gongyi Ning became interested, and after careful consideration, she suddenly called out, "Ah! Could it be that you... bumped into her..."

"Nonsense!" Seeing that Gongyi's thinking was twisted, Luo Changxi couldn't help being a little embarrassed, "I guessed it based on her figure, pace, strength and technique of her moves."

"Can this also be inferred?"

"Naturally." Luo Changxi continued, "I have fought against many people over the years, and I have gained some experience from it. It is not for me to identify whether the opponent is a man or a woman, how old they are, or their temperament habits. It's too difficult. If I meet this person again in the palace, maybe I can recognize him."

"Amazing!"

Gong Yining gave a heartfelt admiration.

However, Gong Yining quickly thought of another key point, so she said again: "But... the most indispensable thing in this harem is young women! In other words, in that palace, apart from the emperor and guards, there are also Yes... Except for the father-in-law, they are all women, all of them are young and beautiful. You can't see and recognize all the young women in the palace, can you?"

"It seems to be right." Luo Changxi sighed, "However, I have a faint intuition."

"What intuition?"

"I always feel..." Luo Changxi pondered, "That woman is not an ordinary person."

"Nonsense." Gongyi stared at her blankly, "He is from Eagle Castle, and his martial arts are strong, even better than you! Naturally, he will not be an ordinary person."

Luo Changxi couldn't laugh or cry: "I mean, she doesn't look like an ordinary palace lady."

"Not an ordinary palace man? Could it be some kind of princess or empress?" Gong Yining was full of disbelief.

Luo Changxi sighed again.

"It's a pity that Luku can only find out about the affairs of the outer court. It would be great if there is a way to find out the files of the inner palace."

"If Your Highness wants to check the files in the Inner Palace, it's not that difficult!"

A joyful voice suddenly appeared from the corridor, interrupting the conversation between Luo Changxi and Gong Yining.

Luo Changxi looked up and saw that it was Jing Qing.It's not surprising that Jing Qing appeared in the north courtyard at the back of the Princess Mansion. What's strange is that Jing Qing has a very suspicious smile on his face, which is full of flattery and flattery.Luo Changxi is no stranger to Jing Qing's appearance.And when such an expression appears on Jing Qing's face, there are often two possibilities. One is that she got into trouble and wants Luo Changxi to clean up the mess, and the other is that she wants Luo Changxi to agree to her. order something.

However, if Jingqing really has a way to find out the files of the inner palace...

Luo Changxi would not argue too much with her.

"You mean...you have a way to check?"

"Have!"

Jing Qing replied loudly with confidence.

"What way?"

"I don't know if Your Highness still remembers Mr. Xiao Ji from Luku?" Jing Qing said with a playful smile, "A few months ago, His Highness asked me to go to Luku to check on Su Wuniang. At that time, I met this lord in Luku. Thanks to Master Xiao Ji for his help, otherwise I would have to check in Luku for the rest of my life!"

Luo Changxi thought about it carefully, and it seemed to be true. She vaguely remembered that since then, Jing Qing would go to Luku from time to time, and even went to drink tea with that "Master Xiao Ji" once. chat.That time Luo Changxi was very angry and scolded Jing Qing severely.

After all, Luku in the palace is not a fun place, and if something goes wrong, it will be really troublesome.

"...Later I found out that the Ji family has supervised the documents and files in the palace for generations." Jing Qing said with a smile, "This little Master Ji is a Luku document, and there is an aunt in the Ji family who is Auntie is the clerk in charge of the inner palace. So I think, if we can entrust this relationship, maybe His Highness will be able to find the files of the inner palace."

"This is a good way. But..." Luo Changxi hesitated again, "Is this Master Xiao Ji reliable? How long have you two known each other, and how much friendship can you have?"

"We're doing fine!" Seeing Luo Changxi's suspicious face, Jing Qing almost jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.However, if Jing Qing was to say "how good it is", she was still a little hesitant. After hesitating for a while, she glanced at Gong Yining, and suddenly said angrily, "It's not that your highness and Miss Gongyi have known each other for a long time. No...it's good..."

"..."

Luo Changxi was at a loss for words.

But Gongyi Ning burst out laughing: "Hey, could it be that Jing Qing you... have you taken a fancy to that little Ji lord? I just don't know if you have told him? It doesn't matter if you are embarrassed to say it, let's go How about I tell you? Maybe that Master Xiao Ji is also infatuated with you, and immediately went to your house to propose marriage!"

"You...you...nonsense!"

Jing Qing stammered a little, and her face was a little red.

Gong Yining laughed even harder, and kept urging Jing Qing to admit it.

Luo Changxi was really helpless, he coughed and interrupted Gong Yining's frolicking, and also broke Jing Qing's embarrassment.

Jing Qing looked at Luo Changxi pitifully, and called out aggrievedly: "Your Highness—"

"Let's talk." Luo Changxi was not in a hurry to ask about that "Master Xiao Ji", but thought of asking Jing Qing's "asking for something" first, "You came here because you have something to ask me?"

"Ah?" Jing Qing didn't seem to expect Luo Changxi to see through it at a glance, and then lowered her head shyly for a while, "...um."

"what's up?"

"I would like to ask Your Highness..."

"Say."

"Do me a favor."

Jing Qing faltered and said nothing for a long time.Luo Changxi was a little bored hearing that, and frowned at her for a long time, but suddenly realized that Jing Qing seemed to be a little different from what he had seen before.Since the two of them returned to Beijing, they all changed back to women's attire one after another.But because both of them are martial arts practitioners, they seldom wear complicated jewelry and clothes.But at this time, Jing Qing was wearing a complicated flower bun and an embroidered skirt, looking like a lady of every family.

really……

It's kind of weird.

Seemingly realizing that Luo Changxi was looking at her attire, Jing Qing became even more ashamed, buried her head in hesitation for a while, and when she raised her head again, it turned into a mournful face.

"Your Highness, I'm about to be forced to death by my parents..."

"Huh?" Luo Changxi didn't understand at all.

"My parents..." Jing Qing was very aggrieved, "Forced me to dress up, and I was not allowed to wield knives and guns. Every day, I found different matchmakers to come to see me... In short, if you don't marry me for a day, I will not be free for a day."

"..."

"... I reckon that all the matchmakers in Beijing know me, Jing Qing."

"..."

"Naturally, I also know almost all the portraits of men of the same age in Beijing..."

"..."

"Your Highness! Help—"

Luo Changxi wanted to laugh, but could only hold back.On the other hand, Gong Yining, who was on the side, was already laughing so hard that she couldn't help herself.

"How to help?"

"Let me too..." Jing Qing said halfway, then lowered her head and whispered, "I want to ask His Highness to take me in for a while."

"Take... stay?"

"I really can't live at home anymore..."

Luo Changxi sympathized with Jing Qing very much, and Gong Yining also felt that Jing Qing was very pitiful.So, the two of them just exchanged glances, and they complied with Jing Qing's "begging".Anyway, the Princess Mansion is already big, so it's nothing to live with one or two more people.As for the name, Jing Qing was originally Luo Changxi's personal bodyguard and the deputy general of the Xiangnan Army.At this time, both Luo Changxi and Jing Qing's military duties have not been dismissed, and it is justified if Luo Changxi wants to call Jing Qing to live in the mansion to serve him personally.

Jing Qing acted resolutely, and moved into the Princess Mansion that afternoon, where she lived in the wing opposite Luo Changxi and Gong Yining.

Two days later, Luo Changxi's injuries were almost healed.And Jing Qing finally found an opportunity to invite that Luku's "Master Xiao Ji" to the princess mansion.

"Chen Ji Mianyang sees Her Royal Highness Princess Zhen Guo."

When Gong Yining saw Ji Mianyang for the first time, she was stunned.

She suddenly understood why Jing Qing had to add the word "Xiao" in front of the word "Master Ji" every time he mentioned this Lord Ji.

It's not because Mr. Ji is young, but——

This Master Luku Wenshu named Ji Mianyang has elegant features, fair skin, and a slender figure. He is so delicate and beautiful.Looking at his temperament again, he really looks like a scholar, with a bookish air all over his body.

Gongyi stared at it for a long time, and a strange feeling suddenly appeared in his heart.

So, she teased Luo Changxi.

"Ok?"

"No...it's nothing." Gong Yining swallowed the words again, and continued to stare at Ji Mianyang.

Why don't you take a closer look...

Look at... the ears!Yes, and the neck!

When Luo Changxi saw Ji Mianyang, his impression of him was similar to that of Gong Yining.However, what Luo Changxi values ​​more is that Ji Mianyang has a kind of arrogance and righteousness in his eyes. Such a person doesn't seem to have too many palaces, but at the same time, he must persuade such a person to work secretly for him , seems to be somewhat difficult.

Anyway, this time it was just a "meaning" to meet Ji Mianyang with his own eyes.

As for others, it needs to be discussed in the long run.

The four of them sat in the hall and drank tea for a while, chatting a few gossips about Beijing affairs.Afterwards, Ji Mianyang got up to say goodbye, and Jing Qing was very conscious, and immediately got up and went out to see off the guests.

Gongyi Ning was amused, blinked at Luo Changxi, and followed out on tiptoe.

Luo Changxi couldn't help laughing, and then drank her tea.

After a while, Gong Yining came back.

Before entering the door, she was already laughing so hard that she couldn't even breathe.

"Ouch...Luo Changxi, do you know what Jing Qing called that Master Ji?" Gong Yining smiled and imitated Jing Qing's expression and movements, "She is like a puppy, she just barely shook her head. Wagging his tail, he said to the Master Ji: "Little Sheep, let me take you back to the palace, okay?"..."

Luo Changxi almost spit out a mouthful of tea.

"However, that Lord Ji was very upright and serious, and said to Jing Qing expressionlessly: 'Master Jing, please let me go'..."

Gongyi Ning laughed until tears came out.

Now, even Luo Changxi began to doubt whether Jing Qing had any intentions for this Ji Mianyang.

But Gong Yining didn't finish her words.

"These are nothing." Gongyi Ning showed a proud expression as if he had obtained some secret, and said to Luo Changxi, "Guess what I found?"

"what?"

"I reckon...this Lord Ji..." Gong Yining blinked, "It's probably the same as you before."

"Same?" Luo Changxi didn't understand.

"It's also a woman disguised as a man... a woman!"
