Xun Yi drank a cup of tea with Zheng Ran'er and sent her home.

The two walked down the street side by side.

Zheng Ran'er held her breath, and moved closer to Xun Yi bit by bit, trying to get as close as possible to her, but she was afraid of bumping into her, and she would discover her little thoughts.

The fabric of the sleeves rubbed together from time to time, and Zheng Ran'er's heart beat faster and faster.

"Don't you want to observe the street? Why keep your head down?" Xun Yi asked curiously when she saw that she was walking silently with her head muffled.

Zheng Ran'er panicked: "I, I..."

was found!She clenched her small fist nervously, and there were small marks on her palm due to her fingernails.

Xun Yi blinked.She felt that Zheng Ran'er was like a little rabbit whose tail was suddenly pulled and tried to hide in the cracks in the ground. It was so cute.

Seeing that her eyes were red with embarrassment, Xun Yi helped her think of a reason: "Are you planning the plot behind the novel?"

Yes!Why didn't she think of it!Zheng Ran'er raised her head in surprise, "Yes! That's right!" Then she nodded heavily to emphasize it.

It's just a plot, nothing else!

"But what if you lose your mind while driving and bump into a pillar?" Xun Yi chuckled lightly, took her hand and held it in his own, "I'll lead you along, so it's safe. You can rest assured and continue thinking about it! "

Zheng Ran'er took a deep breath, "Okay...Okay!"

She felt that her left hand was hot and her face was also hot.

Don't lose your temper!Don't lose your temper!Zheng Ran'er lowered her head, looked at her toes, and forced herself to count her steps to divert her attention.

One step...two steps...after two thousand 230 seven steps, he finally reached the outside of the Princess Mansion.

"How do you get in?" Xun Yi asked.

Arrived so soon?Zheng Ran'er raised her head, feeling a little regretful in her heart.

She pointed to the alley next to her, "You can just go in from there!"

Zheng Ran'er led Xun Yi into the alley, and skillfully removed a broken mat leaning against the wall.

A one-foot-wide crack on the wall suddenly appeared in front of the two of them.

"I discovered it by accident!" Zheng Ran'er was still a little proud, "Then I wrote it down, thinking about sneaking out from here one day to try, but I didn't expect it to be really successful today!"

"Did the people around you not let you go out?" Xun Yi squatted down and cleaned the sharp stones around the crack a little.

Zheng Ran'er shook her head, a little disappointed, "It's not that I won't let you... But I can only go to the place arranged by the emperor's brother, and the maids and nuns follow me inseparably. No matter where I go, the guards will Clear away the passers-by around you."

"You are the first friend I know!" Speaking of Xun Yi, she laughed unconsciously again.

Xun Yi sighed, and also smiled, "Don't worry, you will be able to come out of the main entrance in a dignified manner in a short time, and then you can go wherever you want."

"Really?!" Zheng Ran'er couldn't believe it!

"Yes, so when we go back, find someone to repair the crack, so we won't need it in the future. It's a hidden danger to the princess's mansion if we stay here." Xun Yi thought for a while, and added, "Stay well these few days, If your imperial brother wants you to go out, you can pretend to be sick. I will come to see you when I have time."

Zheng Ran'er nodded obediently, and reluctantly went back.

On the day the fourth prince returned home, Xun Yi changed into a decent men's attire, visited the house, and recommended himself as a guest.

Of course the true master cannot be seen.

People like her are usually received by the master, and those who have real talents will stay, and those who don't have no will be declined.

Sure enough, after a cup of tea, she was led into the main room in the side courtyard by the servant.An easy-going and refined old man in his 60s was waiting for her.

Xun Yi cupped his fists and saluted, "Hello, I'm Xun Yi."

"This is the master of the Fuzhong, surnamed Zhang." Master Zhang nodded and smiled, "Mr. Xun came here by accident, the fourth prince is dealing with official business at this time. Sitting is boring, why don't you and I chat with each other, chat, and pass the time how?"

Xun Yi knew that Master Zhang was here for an interview, and he put talent and learning at the top of everything, so he wasn't too polite.She nodded, "OK."

The two sat on both sides of the chessboard.

After half an hour, Master Zhang lost.During this period, he found that Xun Yi had an extraordinary bearing in his conversation, his knowledge and vision were excellent, but he was different from those who cheated to eat and drink before.

"From what Mr. Xun said just now, it seems that he wants to do something big. But let me tell you the truth, our fourth prince has no intention of political affairs, and I'm afraid that Mr. Zhang wants to invest secretly." Master Zhang shook his head with a look of regret.

"I don't think so." Xun Yi smiled.After probing for so long, I finally started to get down to business.

She slowly picked up the chess pieces on the chessboard into the box, "It's not that the fourth prince doesn't want to fight, but he's finding another way."

"What do you mean by that?" Master Zhang narrowed his eyes and suppressed his smile.

"The first prince and the second prince have solid foundations, and if they fight head-on, at most they will lose all three sides. What's more, the position of the prince will ultimately depend on the will of the Holy Majesty.

Today, the Holy Majesty is physically strong, and the power is firmly in his hands.To him, capable ministers are good, but loyal ministers are even more rare.The fourth prince is unwilling to form a clique, even at the expense of Weng and his son-in-law. On the surface, it is out of passion, but in the eyes of the Holy One, it is a manifestation of being only loyal to the emperor. "

Master Zhang was thoughtful, "Your Excellency, you mean that the fourth prince and Lord Su are acting?"

Xun Yi said calmly, "Although Prince Su was born as a general, he has a very clear view of the situation in the court. Thirty years ago, he was able to hand over his military power for the throne without hesitation. Not only did he save his life, but he also gained the emperor's trust. I am afraid that when he married his daughter to the fourth prince five years ago, he had already planned to this point."

"Mr. Xun's words are fresh and interesting." Master Zhang did not express his opinion.With his hand under the table, he quietly moved towards the servant behind him.

The little servant understood, leaned down, and reminded in his ear: "Master Zhang, the time you and the fourth prince set is almost up, we should go."

The voice was not too loud, just enough for Xun Yi to hear clearly.

Master Zhang got up, bowed apologetically, "Talking with Mr. Xun, I really can't get enough of it. I'll talk about it after I finish my business."

Xun Yi stood up and sent him off respectfully.

Not long after, another servant came to deliver word that the Fourth Prince wanted to see her.

Xun Yi followed the boy through several courtyards and came to the main hall of the study.

The fourth prince was dressed in a Hu suit, with tanned skin and thick calluses on his palms. He was an out-and-out image of a martial artist.But his eyes are steady, and it can be seen that the inside is not as extensive as the surface.

The fourth prince leaned on the back of the chair carelessly, "Master Zhang has already told me, you know quite a lot. I don't like to beat around the bush, so just tell me, why did you join my sect?"

Xun Yi made a salute, "The fourth prince forgives your sins. Apart from admiring the character of the fourth prince, I do have a small reason, to save my life."

Then, she saved the princess while collecting herbs, and then found out that the eldest prince and the second prince ruined the princess's reputation, and finally she was chased and killed by the two forces.Her identity in it is the apprentice of the hermit Chang Qingzi.

"There is such a thing, tsk." The fourth prince looked up at Xun Yi, showing a smirk, "Tell me, if I silence you and then join the brothers, how about it?"

"In that case, you will lose an excellent opportunity to eradicate the enemy." Xun Yi said indifferently, "The fourth prince just said that you are a happy person, and I happen to be too. But I don't know if you are a courageous person." people."

"Even if you suspect that I am a spy sent by your two elder brothers, you still dare to use me."

The fourth prince looked at her.

After a long while, the fourth prince smiled brightly, showing a row of big white teeth: "This prince has always hired people without suspicion, and suspected people will not be used. Tell me about your plan."

"Naturally, we want to make use of the princess' affairs to make some fuss. But this is just an introduction. Whether or not their power can be really hurt in the future depends on the fourth prince and Prince Su." Xun Yi replied with his head bowed.

The Fourth Prince peeled off a peanut and threw it into his mouth, "Then what kind of reward should I give you?"

"I hope to get a qualification to participate in this year's imperial examination." Xun Yi replied.

The fourth prince became interested: "It's not difficult. I remember that every big family can recommend a few children, who can be exempted from the provincial examination and directly enter the examination. Master Zhang can help you with this matter. But I can ask you to do so purpose?"

Xun Yi smiled honestly, "Because I'm timid, I'm afraid that one day your two elder brothers' subordinates will find and assassinate you. You only have to slap your face in front of the emperor and register, and others are afraid of causing trouble when they do it." , will be afraid."

The fourth prince's eyes widened exaggeratedly, "So confident? Have you ever thought about what to do if you don't pass the exam?"

"Then I'll be the Fourth Prince's guest with peace of mind and rely on you to take care of me." Xun Yi bowed again, neither humble nor overbearing.

"All right, all right, you are really boring." The fourth prince waved his hand, "Go down and discuss your status with Master Zhang."

Half a month later, everything has basically been settled.Rumors gradually began to spread in Beijing, saying that the eldest prince and the second prince have been using their identities as princesses to commit crimes for many years.Although the court is still calm for the time being, it is already about to rain.

It was rare to finish the work at hand early, so Xun Yi took advantage of the night to sneak into the princess' mansion.
