The reborn sweet girl always wants to escape, but the abstinent prince hugs her and coaxes her!

Originally, Lin Jiaoyue was still uneasy about her plotting against Cheng Jintong, but now that she saw that the other party was completely abandoning her, she completely let go.

She pretended to hesitate and said, "That's fine. It's just that at the flower festival garden party, the male guests and the female guests always sit at separate tables. If you go there and can't see him, wouldn't your trip be in vain?"

Cheng Jintong was shocked when he heard this.

In the past, her father never allowed her to go to garden parties because she was young, so she didn't understand the rules there.

But now, seeing her haircut coming soon, her mother has also begun to arrange marriage for her, and her control over her is not as strict as usual. Women of the same age who have clean and polite housekeeping invite her, and her mother also allows her to go out.

But as Lin Jiaoyue said, the fourth prince is a royal relative, and it is not easy to meet him. The garden party is a rare opportunity, and I really don’t want to miss it...

She looked at Lin Jiaoyue eagerly: "Jiaojiao... do you have any idea?"

Lin Jiaoyue sneered in her heart, but said: "I do know a way to walk to the male guests quietly. That was discovered when I went to find my brother at the garden party last year."

The garden party of the Flower Festival has always been a grand gathering for unmarried men and women. Mu Rong has never liked to participate, and this also gave her the opportunity to show off her style in front of others.

Last year, she pretended to go the wrong way and walked into the next door by mistake.

By chance, he fell in front of the fourth prince Wu Tianqi. One was the talented Princess Qingyang, and the other was the empress Huang. The two got along smoothly for half a day. Lin Jiaoyue even used her best to show off all her talents in front of Wu Tianqi. Successfully gained the other party's favor.

If it hadn't been for the incident at the Hunting Palace, she would have definitely captured him by now.

And now...

Seeing her confident look, Cheng Jintong was happy.

Her grandfather was the Minister of Rites, and her father also served in the Ministry of Rites.

There were many restrictions on her at home, so she never dared to tell them that she liked the fourth prince.

Because of this, there would be no chance for the Fourth Prince to know his feelings.

But now, I heard that the fourth prince is discussing marriage, his biological mother is no longer here, and the queen has no time to care about the prince. If she can express her feelings in front of him, who knows if the fourth prince is willing to marry her?

She and Lin Jiaoyue grew up together as handkerchief friends, so they truthfully told them their doubts.

Lin Jiaoyue sneered in her heart: Idiot, the biggest obstacle between you and the fourth prince is not him, but your own grandfather!Although the fourth prince is a prince, he is just an empty air. His biological mother is just a lowly palace maid, and the maternal family has nothing to rely on. I am afraid that Mr. Cheng will not look down on him at all. It is ridiculous that you are still worried about whether the other party has you in his heart...

She sneered at Cheng Jintong in her heart, but she said, "With your appearance, he will definitely like you if he sees you."

Cheng Jintong was overjoyed when he heard this: "Then... can Jiao Jiao take me there then?"

"That's natural." After Lin Jiaoyue finished speaking, he showed a trace of hesitation: "But, if your father and grandfather knew that you were with me, would they disagree with you leaving the house?"

"It doesn't matter, I won't tell them! I just said I would go with Miss He. After we go to the garden party, I will ditch her and go find you!"

Lin Jiaoyue blinked: "So... very good."

Seeing Cheng Jintong's smile finished, Lin Jiaoyue's thoughts had drifted far away.

She promised Wu Tianqi that she would help him get Cheng Jintong and use this to draw the Cheng family into the camp of the fourth prince.

Once it was done, Wu Tianqi would marry her as his concubine.

At that time, there will be help from the two ministers of the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Rites, and since the position of the prince is now in danger, she will definitely be able to help Wu Tianqi successfully seize the position of the East Palace.

Although she has to temporarily succumb to Cheng Jintong, with her intelligence, it is not difficult to deal with him.

After everything is done, just find an opportunity for Cheng Jintong to die of illness.

……

Chang Jing's return to Beijing could have reassured the prince, who had been anxious.

After all, he did not interfere in the affairs of Huangzhuang. He should not be soft-hearted and listen to Chang Jing's words and send the East Palace secret guards to silence him.

But if Chang Jing clarifies the matter to his father face to face, and then blames all the problems on the Chang clan, even if his father is angry, he will only punish Chang Jing for his lax behavior, and then scold himself for listening to other people's beliefs. It's a big deal.

But who knows...

The Chang clan members were assassinated in the street!

What should we do?If Chang Jing blamed such a big crime on a dead person, not to mention his father not believing him, he would even feel that he had no clue.

But now he is banned, and the East Palace is also guarded by the Imperial Army.

For a while, let alone asking Mu Rong to come in to ask for advice, it would be difficult to recall the people outside the East Palace.

Coincidentally, Cao Yang, the East Palace Zhan minister whom he relied on recently, happened to say on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month that he would go home to spend the holidays with his parents.Although he was worried that the incident at Huangzhuang would break out, he did not expect that it would be exposed at the first court meeting in the new year.Therefore, he agreed with Cao Yang to leave the house, but who would have thought that the change would come so suddenly.

After the meeting the next day, the East Palace was sealed off and Cao Yang could no longer enter.

Nowadays, there are hundreds of attendants and servants in the East Palace, but not even one of them is useful!

While the prince was feeling annoyed, Cao Yang, whom he had longed for, was sitting in a deserted wine shop.

Opposite him sat a young guard, Mu Lu.

Since returning from Jiangnan, Cao Yang has almost never seen anyone around Weiyuan Marquis.

The last time I saw Mu Lu was on the fourteenth day of the first lunar month.

Mu Lu hurriedly sneaked into the East Palace under the cover of night, leaving the words "The East Palace is about to undergo changes, Mr. Cao should take care of himself" and left.

Although Cao Yang didn't know the reason, he knew that the Marquis' willingness to warn him was definitely not a child's play.

He wanted to tell the prince, but he kept lingering on his new favorite, the Northern Xinjiang dancer Herme, and his successive requests to see him were rejected, so he simply took leave of absence on the grounds of spending the fifteenth day of the first lunar month with his parents.

The next day, before he returned to the East Palace, he heard that the incident in the Imperial Village broke out, the prince was involved in it and could not escape, and the East Palace was also banned.

If the Marquis hadn't sent Mu Rong to warn him, he would have been trapped in the East Palace with the prince at this time.

So, when he saw Mu Lu today, he bowed his head to the end and said, "If Brother Lu hadn't told me in time, I'm afraid I would be trapped in the East Palace now without knowing whether I would live or die, and my parents at home would be worried and unable to sleep and eat well."

So when he saw Mu Lu again today, he was the first to express his gratitude: "Thanks to Brother Lu for informing me earlier, otherwise I would have been trapped in the East Palace with the prince."

When he was in Jiangnan, Cao Yang was only thinking about the case and was not close to the guards around the Marquis.

But Mu Lu is special. He talks a lot, is talkative... and lively and active.Although Cao Yang had no intention of making friends, he couldn't stop him from hanging in front of Cao Yang three times when he had something to do. After a while, the two of them became familiar with each other.

There was also intimacy in his conversation just now.

Mu Lu grinned: "It's just a small effort, no need for you to thank me!"

After he finished speaking, he suddenly came over and said, "But the Marquis asked me to find Mr. Cao. There is a deeper meaning. Have you thought of it?"

Cao Yang is a smart man, but his intelligence is all on the case, and his sophistication is not his strong point.

So, he shook his head in confusion.

"Hi!" Mu Lu slapped the table, moved closer, and lowered his voice, "Master Hou is afraid that you will be embarrassed."
