Qingzhu looked at the situation in front of her, unable to recover for a long time, my God, is this really Lanmei? Lan Mei, how did you become like this?
In the past, the anger caused by Lan Mei's deceit completely disappeared at this moment, but the uncontrollable heartache, who is so cruel, who tortured Lan Mei into this state.
"Lanmei, Lanmei, wake up, I'm Qingzhu, look at me, what's wrong with you?" Qingzhu knelt down and shook Lanmei anxiously, her voice was slightly more A little sobbing.
Meng Fuying was also slightly startled when she heard Qingzhu's cry, Qingzhu was so sad, it's not hard to imagine Lanmei's current appearance.
This Bai Yichen is really too ruthless, he deceived Lan Mei, took advantage of Lan Mei, and even made her suffer so miserably, it is really too ruthless.
Lan Mei was shaken by Qingzhu, but she still didn't react at all, she didn't seem to feel that strong shaking at all, her eyes just stared blankly at the front, completely stupefied in her eyes, Without the slightest emotion.
And her body was covered in bruises, which was extremely terrifying, and her body was even more shockingly terrifying.
Although Qingzhu is still a woman who has not left the court, she also understands what is going on.
"This Bai Yichen, how could he treat you like this, he is simply not a human being, he is simply a beast." Qingzhu finally couldn't help crying out, Bai Yichen's treatment of Lan Mei in this way would probably make her more uncomfortable than killing her. .
"Miss Qingzhu, don't be too sad." A guard heard Qingzhu's cry and couldn't help persuading, "No, we just went to the White Mansion, otherwise Miss Lanmei must have lost her last breath." No more, when the time comes, when we search the White House, there will still be a few men who are..."
The man's words paused slightly, but Qingzhu naturally understood the meaning behind the words.
"Okay, you can give her to me, don't worry, she is in my hands, I will not let her escape." Qingzhu stopped crying, looked at the two guards, and pleaded in a low voice, she just came out At that time, he happened to meet these two guards and wanted to lock Lan Mei into the dark room.
Lan Mei is already like this now, how can she watch them lock Lan Mei up.
"This..." The two guards hesitated slightly, "Your Highness ordered us to lock her up and watch her carefully."
"Leave her to Qingzhu." In the room, Meng Fuying couldn't help but said.
The guard's words just now made her understand, what's going on? I believe that even if Lan Mei loved Bai Yichen in the past, she now hated Bai Yichen to the bone, and it was impossible to harm her again.
Besides, originally Lan Mei was not bad, but she was tired of love,
"Yes." The two guards, when they heard the princess speak, naturally did not dare to disobey any more, and responded in a low voice.
"Qingzhu, take Lan Mei down first, and settle her down." Meng Fuying said softly again, even if she couldn't see Lan Mei's situation now, she could still imagine Lan Mei's tragic situation.
"Thank you, Princess." Qing Zhu quickly brought Lan Mei and added it to her room, then asked someone to fetch water, and cleaned Lan Mei herself.
At this moment, Lan Mei's clothes were removed, and seeing the tragic state of Lan Mei's body, she was even more shocked, and the tears fell down uncontrollably.
She and Lan Mei entered the palace at the same time. At that time, she was six years old and Lan Mei was eight years old. At that time, many people in the palace bullied them. injuries, but every time Lanmei was injured all over her body.
Later, the queen mother sent the two of them to practice martial arts, saying that there must be a few outstanding talents around them.
When she was learning martial arts, Lan Mei also protected her everywhere, so her martial arts were not as good as Lan Mei's.
However, now Lan Mei is being bullied like this, but she has no way to protect Lan Mei.
Although Lan Mei betrayed the Queen Mother, even though she cheated on her, she should not be punished like this.
Her tears fell into the water little by little, and some of them also fell on Lan Mei's body.
Lan Mei's body seemed to tremble slightly, and there seemed to be a slight flash of emotion in those eyes.
"Lan Mei, Lan Mei, you're awake." Seeing her slightly strange appearance, Qingzhu shouted again and again, "Lan Mei, look at me, look at me, I'm Qingzhu."
"Green Bamboo." Lan Mei's lips moved slightly, and she slowly called out. The voice was very low, very low, and could hardly be heard.
"It's me, it's me, you recognized me." Seeing that Lan Mei finally recognized her, Qingzhu's face was a little bit more happy, but also a little bit more distressed.
Said anxiously again, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, it's all right now."
"It's okay." Lan Mei's lips moved slightly again, and she murmured, but her face was full of despair. She should be like this now, is she still okay?
Now, she really wants to die.
"Why do you want to save me?" She closed her eyes slightly, and a few tears slowly rolled down from the corners of her eyes. In her despair, there was even a bit of heartbreaking pity.
Qing Zhu's body froze slightly, looking into Lan Mei's eyes, she became more worried, and shouted hastily, "Lan Mei, you can't do this, Bai Yichen made you like this, this guy hates you!" Always report it."
Qing Zhu was deeply afraid that Lan Mei would commit suicide, so she wanted to give her at least one reason to survive.
She thought, at this moment, Lan Mei must hate Bai Yichen very much.
Sure enough, when Lan Mei heard Qingzhu talking about Bai Yichen, her body froze obviously, and her eyes opened quickly. There was obvious hatred in the eyes, and the corners of her lips moved slightly, saying each word in a ruthless voice. , "Bai Yichen..."
While speaking, her body trembled slightly, and she gritted her teeth in hatred.
Seeing her appearance, Qingzhu finally breathed a sigh of relief. As long as she has this resentment in her heart, she may commit suicide. As long as she survives this period of time and gradually forgets the pain of the past, she should It will be fine.
Xuanyuanye returned to the palace, saw Meng Fuying still lying on the bed quietly, then quickly walked to the bed, and asked softly, "Do you feel better?"
Earlier, the imperial physician had already given her a miscarriage medicine and told her to take it. Imperial physician Hu said that if there were no other accidents, the baby would be fine.
"Well, it's okay." Meng Fuying nodded slightly, and seeing the gloomy face on his face, she guessed that Bai Yichen hadn't been caught yet.
Bai Yichen was too insidious, she was a little worried if he was not caught, let alone Xuanyuan Ye.
However, thinking of Lan Mei brought back earlier, his eyes flickered slightly, and he said softly, "That girl Lan Mei should know some details about Bai Yichen, but, as it is now, we won't force her to say anything."
"Well, that's why I brought her back to the mansion." Xuanyuan Ye was slightly stunned for a moment, and then said with a slightly heavy tone.
It's just that he had seen Lan Mei's appearance before, so he probably couldn't ask any more questions.
"Princess, Your Highness." At this moment, Qing Zhu's voice came in from outside the door.
"What's the matter?" Xuanyuan Ye was slightly taken aback, since he asked in a deep voice.
"Lan Mei said, I have something to say to His Highness and Princess." Qingzhu paused slightly, and said again.
"Bring her in." Xuanyuan Ye was taken aback again, but then said quickly, Lan Mei took the initiative to speak, which surprised him a bit.
"Your Highness, Lan Mei, the princess apologizes." As soon as Lan Mei entered the room, she knelt on the ground and said with a sad face.
"Get up first." Before Xuanyuan Ye could speak, Lan Mei said softly, "I must say, you are also tired of love, so I can't blame you entirely." A girl of her age was originally in the beginning of love. How could he withstand Bai Yichen's temptation.
Lan Mei's body froze slightly, her face couldn't help showing a little bit of surprise, but also a little touch, and whispered again, "Lan Mei hurt the princess like that, but the princess doesn't blame Lan Mei, but for Lan Mei. Making excuses, Lan Mei will never forget the kindness of the princess, but it is a fact that Lan Mei harmed the princess, so Lan Mei will let the princess dispose of her today."
"I can understand your helplessness, and you used to protect me everywhere in the palace. Even though I was stupid at that time, I still remember." Meng Fuying sighed slightly, Said softly again.
Just now, Lan Mei only said to let her do what she wanted, but she didn't mention anything about Bai Yichen, probably because she loved Bai Yichen too deeply, and now she couldn't bear to hurt Bai Yichen.
So, at this moment, she just wanted to impress Lan Mei with this, and hoped that Lan Mei could help them find Bai Yichen.
Lan Mei's body was slightly startled again, and her eyes were a little more moved, and she said softly, "That's what Lan Mei should do."
"At that time, if it wasn't for you and Qingzhu, I wouldn't know how much bullying I would have suffered." Meng Fuying smiled slightly, and there was a little touch of emotion in her faint voice, and she looked into Lan Mei's eyes. , with an obvious smile.
"Princess..." Lan Mei raised her eyes slightly, looked at Meng Fuying, and was even slightly stunned when she met the light smile on Meng Fuying's lips.
"Okay, I know about your matter, so you can go down with Qingzhu to rest first, I have already ordered Qingzhu to make arrangements for you." Meng Fuying didn't ask her anything at this time, Instead, he let her go to rest with a slight smile.
"Princess, Lan Mei is sorry for the princess. The princess treats Lan Mei like this, which really makes Lan Mei feel ashamed." Lan Mei said hastily, with a touch of emotion on her face.
There was a slight pause in the words, the corners of the lips were slightly pursed, and it seemed that there was still some hesitation, but after a while, he suddenly raised his eyes again, looked at Meng Fuying, his face became a little more determined, and he spoke again. , saying word by word, "Lan Mei knows that His Highness is looking for Bai Yichen. After staying in the White Mansion these days, Lan Mei also knows something about Bai Yichen, and may be able to help His Highness."
She was in Qingzhu's room before, thinking of Bai Yichen's treatment of her like that, she really hated Bai Yichen in her heart. He wished he could kill Bai Yichen immediately.
So, he agreed to Qingzhu, and came to see the princess with Qingzhu.
However, after leaving Qingzhu's room, she couldn't bear it anymore. She knew very well that if the things Bai Yichen did fell into the hands of His Highness, ten deaths would not be enough.
If His Highness really caught Bai Yichen, then Bai Yichen's fate would be very, very miserable.
Although she hated Bai Yichen, even though Bai Yichen treated her like that, at this moment, she still couldn't help herself.
It's just that what Meng Fuying said just now made her make up her mind again.
She hurt the concubine again and again, but not only did the concubine not blame her, she even rescued her at this time and asked Qingzhu to make arrangements for her. But it was this kindness that she could never repay in her life.
"Oh, then what do you know?" Meng Fuying finally breathed a sigh of relief, and asked again in a low voice, but this time, the voice was still very light, not the slightest difference from just now. strange.
"Bai Yichen has been getting very close to Mr. Yin recently. This Mr. Yin is from the Western Regions. Bai Yichen said he was a businessman, but Lan Mei didn't think he was a businessman. , more concerned about business matters," Lan Mei said slowly.
"People from the Western Regions?" Xuanyuanye frowned slightly, with a slight sneer on his lips, "Bai Yichen really colluded with people from the Western Regions."
"What? Do you know the identity of Mr. Yin?" Meng Fuying turned her eyes to look at Xuanyuan Ye, with a hint of surprise in her voice.
"En." Xuanyuan Ye just nodded slightly, without much explanation, and Meng Fuying didn't feel comfortable asking any more, so she looked at Lan Mei and said softly, "Lan Mei, continue talking."
"Yes. Concubine." Lan Mei responded respectfully, and then said again, "After Bai Yichen learned that Concubine was pregnant, he focused on destroying the child in Concubine's stomach, and began to let Lan Mei find Qingzhu to harm Concubine. Lan Mei couldn't bear it, so Bai Yichen and Mr. Yin lied to Lan Mei, saying that the princess had been taking revenge on him, defrauding him of money, taking away his reputation as the world's most talented person, and even robbing him of his business. He was so forced that he had no strength to fight back, Lan Mei believed it was true, so she agreed to him..."
"This Bai Yichen is really shameless. It is obvious that he has been hurting the princess all the time, so he turned the truth around and framed the princess like this." Hearing what Lan Mei said, Qing Zhu couldn't help saying angrily.
Lan Mei looked at Qingzhu, with apologetic expression on her face, "So, I made an appointment with Qingzhu that day and gave Qingzhu the flower. The flower was brought by Mr. Yin from the Western Regions. I heard that it is very strange and very precious. , There are only two plants in the entire Western Regions. Mr. Yin said that the flowers alone can calm people's minds at night and refresh them during the day. It is very beneficial to people, but they cannot be mixed with other flowers at will. Putting flowers together, if you put them together with plum blossoms and narcissus, it will emit a very poisonous poison, and it will kill people in just a few days."
Meng Fuying was secretly startled. In this world, there is such a flower?
Qing Zhu was even more stunned, looked straight at Lan Mei, and said slightly tremblingly, "Then, what's the use of you asking me to put it together with the roses earlier?"
"If you put it together with roses, the poison it emits is not very strong, but within seven days, it can cause the princess to have a miscarriage." Lan Mei paused slightly, and then said with a sad face.
Xuanyuanye's eyes suddenly sank, and he subconsciously held Meng Fuying's hand tightly. Seven days, if seven days are full, I'm afraid...
"But, but, after I came back, I didn't put it in the rose bushes, but put it in the jasmine." Qingzhu was startled, and couldn't help but said again.
"It's no wonder. Mr. Yin originally said that as long as you put the flower in the rose bushes, the baby in the princess' belly will definitely be lost in the seven days after tomorrow. However, after you brought the flower back to the palace for a few days, the princess will be fine. But it was brilliant, Mr. Yin guessed, you can put that flower and jasmine together, Mr. Yin said, if that flower and jasmine are put together, not only is it harmless to people, but also has great benefits. "
"Ah, there is another thing to say, it's okay, it's okay, I put that flower next to the jasmine." Qingzhu breathed out secretly, and said in a low voice, but in her heart, she was secretly grateful to Sufeng If it wasn't for him, maybe she would have put the flower in the rose bush.
If that's the case, then she is the murderer who killed the princess.
Lan Mei was also secretly thankful, fortunately, Qingzhu didn't listen to her, and put the flower among the rose bushes.
"Bai Yichen was not reconciled, and asked Mr. Yin to find a way. Suddenly, Mr. Yin said that the crown prince can help them, and that the crown prince has a secret passage that can lead to King Yi's mansion. Moreover, Mr. Yin actually found the crown prince's hiding place. "Lan Mei said slowly again.
"What? You said that Bai Yichen and the others found the prince?" Xuanyuan Ye couldn't help being startled, and exclaimed in a low voice.
"Yes, that's why Lan Mei suspects that Mr. Yin is not a businessman." Lan Mei nodded repeatedly.
"Okay, very good, now, I know where to find Bai Yichen, or this time even Xuanyuan Che was pulled out together." Xuanyuanye's lips twitched into a slight sneer, word by word, coldly Said.
Moreover, he suddenly thought of an excellent way...
Meng Fuying heard Xuanyuan Ye's words and understood what he meant.
This time, Bai Yichen obviously took advantage of Xuanyuan Che's secret way.
Xuanyuan Ye sent someone to search the White Mansion afterward, but Bai Yichen was not found, and he was searching the entire capital at the moment, but nothing was found, so now Bai Yichen must be hiding in the basement just like Xuanyuan Che.
But, how did Xuanyuanye know which basement Bai Yichen and the others were hiding in?
Since Xuanyuan Che can even build the underground palace, a few basements are nothing to him.
"Send the order Sufeng, from now on, look for the exit of the underground passage instead, and every time you find one, I will pour water into it." Xuanyuan Ye walked slightly outside the door, and shouted in a deep voice to the guards outside. road.
He knows that Xuanyuan Che has many secret passages, and they may all be extremely hidden, but he believes that many of the underground secret passages must be connected.
As long as you find a few outlets and fill them with water, you can always reach them.
Last night, the man came out of one of the exits, and his guards had seen the appearance of that exit, so it would be much easier to find it next.
Now that the sky is slightly brighter, it will be easier to find it.
"Yes." One of the guards quickly reported to Sufeng after taking the order.
"You guys, look around in this yard to see if there are other secret passage exits." Xuanyuan Ye ordered the guards in the yard, if there is an exit in this yard, Fu'er will be even more dangerous now.
The guards quickly searched for it. After all, they had seen one of the exits. Those guards had undergone special training, so after an hour, they found the other two exits.
Xuanyuan Ye became more startled the more he looked at it, "Go and keep looking, we can't miss any one."
He really couldn't believe that there were so many exits in his yard alone.
No wonder Xuanyuan Che's people could easily sneak into the palace in the future.
At the exits of the three secret passages discovered at this moment, there are several guards pouring water into them. There is a small river in King Yi's mansion, so the water is extremely convenient.
Meng Fuying also got up after dawn and walked slowly. Doctor Hu said that after drinking the medicine, she can get out of bed and walk around.
Meng Fuying saw those guards pouring water into the hole, she couldn't help secretly amused, this kind of situation reminded her of the situation when others fed mice in the countryside.
At that time, rats were fed like this. The rat had nowhere to escape, and finally had to escape, but after escaping, it was naturally beaten to death.
Unexpectedly, Xuanyuan Ye would be so aggressive today.
However, no one knows how many underground tunnels Xuanyuan Che has, let alone where they are hiding now, so it is much more difficult to force them out than to force mice.
However, Meng Yuntian almost mobilized all the soldiers he had in his hands. According to Sufeng's order, everyone searched one by one, and indeed found many underground passage exits in the capital.
Especially in the original prince's mansion and the imperial palace, there are several tunnels.
After everyone found the exit, they poured water in and out according to Xuanyuan Ye's instructions. Although the tunnel was unfathomable, it was underground after all, so it would not be fun to pour buckets of water down. If someone is inside, it must be unbearable.
However, after a day and a night of feeding, Bai Yichen still did not come out.
Obviously, they haven't found the right tunnel yet. I don't know which tunnel Bai Yichen is hiding in now.
In a certain basement at the moment.
"It's not good, they are attacking with water now, if we continue to hide here, I'm afraid..." Because A Xiao had exposed his identity earlier, he is also hiding here now.
"Bai Yichen." Xuanyuan Che's cold eyes slowly turned to Bai Yichen, with a bit of bloodthirsty coldness on his face, and he said slowly, "You are going to die, not because you have hurt me. Now, Get out of this palace."
If Bai Yichen hadn't insisted on going his own way, Xuanyuan Ye would never have found out.
Bai Yichen's eyes also sank suddenly, and he also looked at Xuanyuan Che coldly, and said in the same ruthless voice, "Hmph, you still dare to blame me, do you think they will let you go?"
"At least, Xuanyuan Ye won't chase and kill Bengong so frantically." Xuanyuan Che said coldly again.
"Don't forget, you are also involved in this plan, and you have a lot of credit for it. This underground passage is all yours. I believe Xuanyuan Ye has already guessed this. Do you think that he is now Is it just me? Even if I go out, he won't let you go." Bai Yichen sneered slightly, and said harshly, but there was a bit of fear in his voice,
They don't know how long they can hide in this underground tunnel. If Xuanyuan Ye's search method is used, it will be a matter of time before they are found. ,
Xuanyuan Che's eyes narrowed even more, and he became more dangerously cold, but he didn't speak any more at the moment. Bai Yichen was right. Xuanyuan Ye would never let him go when something like this happened. .
Suddenly, there were a few tiny sounds on the ground, and the three of them were startled and quickly avoided.
Then seeing the upper door slowly opened, and it was Mr. Yin who walked in, he couldn't help secretly heaving a sigh of relief,
"Master." A Xiao saw him and called forward respectfully.
"Now, how is the situation outside?" Bai Yichen also asked anxiously.
"This time, Xuanyuan Ye was ruthless to catch them, and he rescued that Lan Mei, who even confessed to me, so he has ordered me to be arrested now, and he also I found some letters in your study room, I'm afraid this time, I won't be safe right now." Mr. Yin looked at Bai Yichen with obvious dissatisfaction in his eyes, "You are so careless in doing things, such letters They didn’t destroy it, but they still stayed in the study, now, wouldn’t Xuanyuanye get the evidence directly.”
Bai Yichen was stunned, with a little annoyance on his face, and said in a deep voice, "I didn't expect this to happen."
When Xuanyuan Che looked at Bai Yichen, his brows were also slightly frowned, and he said with a mocking smile, "The guy who doesn't succeed enough, but fails more than he fails."
"You?" Bai Yichen's eyes widened, and they all stared at Xuanyuan Che, "Do you think you're amazing? Didn't Xuanyuan Ye take over you?"
"Okay, stop arguing, when will you still be arguing, now you have to find a solution as soon as possible?" Hearing the quarrel between the two, Mr. Yin couldn't help roaring angrily.
"Now, the most important thing is to find a way to escape first, and save your life first." Xuanyuan Che narrowed his eyes slightly again, and there was a little more anxiety in that cold voice.
At this moment, Xuanyuan Ye is conducting a comprehensive search, and it is impossible for them to escape.
Moreover, now, he does not dare to change the basement casually. After all, this basement is the safest. Moreover, this basement has several exits, one of which leads to the palace, and the other leads to the outside of the city. Another one leads to…
Moreover, secret doors were placed in the middle of the tunnel, even if Xuanyuan Ye found any of the exits, as long as he hid in the middle, he would not be forced out by Xuanyuan Che.
It's just that, after all, there is no ventilation in the secret passage, so if the time is short, if the time is long, even if it is not poured out, it will be suffocated to death.
So, now we still have to find a surefire way to escape from the city.
"Can this basement of yours lead to the city gate?" Bai Yichen scanned the surroundings, and asked anxiously again, obviously thinking about escaping from here to the outside of the city.
"Yes, it's just that it leads to the underground palace. I believe that Xuanyuan Ye has already laid an ambush there, waiting for us to go out." Xuanyuan Che glanced at Bai Yichen coldly, and his voice became more Very mocking, this Bai Yichen really has no brains,
"Then what should we do now? If it's not true, do we have to wait here to die?" Bai Yichen heard Xuanyuan Che's words, and at this moment, he didn't care about his ridicule any more. Instead, he felt a little more scared when he thought about not being able to get out. .
"Now, the only way is to distract Xuanyuan Ye. I have a way, I can go out of the city." Mr. Yin narrowed his eyes slightly, and said slowly.
"What way?" Bai Yichen asked anxiously once he heard that there was a way, and there was a little more hope in his voice.
"To prevent Xuanyuan Ye from harming us, we can only find an amulet, and Xuanyuan Ye's woman is the only amulet." Mr. Yin said coldly again.
"You mean, capture her, use her to threaten Xuanyuan Ye, and let us go out?" Bai Yichen's eyes flickered slightly, and there was a faint strangeness in his voice.
The words paused slightly, and said again, "But now we can't escape, how are we going to catch that woman?"
