Chapter 319 Do You Understand?

"So far, the worst outcome is that Li Yunxuan has guessed that I'm still alive." Qin Fenghua said.

"No way, we didn't miss out." Qin Jin was full of doubts.

It's true that there was no leak, but Ligui died, which made Qin Fenghua suspicious.

Qin Jin: "Little sister, I still think you are too clever in thinking of Li Yunxuan. Maybe Ligui died accidentally?"

There is such a possibility, but Qin Fenghua dare not gamble.

Qin Fenghua suddenly looked up at Qin Jin: "Brother, did anyone follow you when you came out?"

Qin Jin shook his head with certainty: "No."

Qin Fenghua frowned and thought, but did not speak for a while.

Rong Jing looked at her: "Fenghua, do you suspect that this place is no longer safe?"

"Well, I always feel uneasy."

"Not at all." Qin Jin bit the leg of lamb and said.

But seeing Qin Fenghua's serious face, he swallowed the leg of lamb in his mouth, hesitated for a while, and said, "Then why don't we change places?"

Qin Fenghua still shook his head: "Where should I go?"

They were not familiar with Tongzhou City, so it was not easy to find a new yard in such a short period of time without scaring the snake.

The three were lost in thought.

It was almost evening, and the sunset glow on the patio was extraordinarily bright. Under the porch, the servants took the time to light up the lanterns hanging under the eaves.

It was still bright, but the lights in the lanterns were turned off, and only a very shallow shadow was cast on the ground.

Qin Fenghua stared fixedly at the faint shadow in a daze, suddenly, she seemed to think of something, and with a jolt, the thought that suddenly appeared in her mind blurted out: "It's dark under the lamp!"

"What?" Qin Jin turned to look at Qin Fenghua, "Why is it dark under the lamp?"

Qin Fenghua said: "Brother, it's dark under the lights, the most dangerous place is the safest place!"

In a blink of an eye, Rong Jing also understood: "You mean the palace?"

"Yes! It's the palace. Let's go back quietly. Even if Li Yunxuan guesses that I'm not dead, he will never think that I'm hiding in the palace. Brother, you..." Qin Fenghua pointed at Qin Jin and smiled, "Continue to act like that , appeared by the Tongzhou Lake from time to time, and then disappeared for a while, creating the illusion that you were going to see me."

"Oh! This is the darkness under the lights you mentioned." Qin Jin lowered his head and thought for a while, "This method is indeed feasible."

but……

"I came out in a hurry just now. I came on horseback. I don't have a carriage... How are you going to go back to the palace with me?" Qin Jin asked.

This is indeed a problem.

Qin Fenghua thought about it, and it would be too deliberate to hire a carriage on the street.

"Gu Jing and I will pretend to be your guards and go back to the palace with you."

"This...not good." Qin Jin pointed at Rongjing, "He still looks like a guard, you?"

Qin Jin looked at Qin Fenghua's slender arms and legs, and felt a little disgusted: "Forget it, walk around the gate of the palace, for fear that others will not see that I am bringing a woman."

Hearing him burying himself like this, Qin Fenghua immediately puffed up his cheeks, and said angrily, "Then what do you think?"

Uh... Qin Jin refuted her rebuttal in an orderly manner, but it really made him think, he really couldn't figure it out.

For a while, the brother and sister stared wide-eyed, speechless.

Suddenly, a chuckle came from the side, it was Rongjing's laughter.

Qin Fenghua and Qin Jin turned their heads together when they heard the sound: "What are you laughing at?!"

This unanimous questioning showed that they were brother and sister born from the same mother's womb.

Rong Jing put away the smile on his lips, and turned to the main topic: "If I remember correctly, tonight is the day of Lu Ci, the prefect of Tongzhou, right?"

"Tongzhou prefect Lu Ci?"

That's right, Qin Jin remembered that since Da Shengjia entered the palace, the prefect Lu Ci would enter the palace unshakably every three days to face the saint, and the time to face the saint was after nightfall.

"What do you mean?" Qin Fenghua asked Rongjing.

Rong Jing blinked at Qin Fenghua, and said: "We can enter the palace in Mrs. Lu's carriage. In this way, without anyone noticing, Li Yunxuan will never know that we have gone back." Rong Jing turned to Qin Jin , "Of course, this matter still needs the cooperation of the second son."

"How to cooperate?" Qin Jin sat up straight.

Rong Jing pushed away the food on the table to make a space, then dipped his fingertips in the water in the tea bowl, and while drawing on the table with his fingertips, he said: "The palace is divided into east and west. The Xing Palace and the West Xing Palace, the East Xing Palace is the palace of the royal family, and the west side is the family of the various prefectures, and the east and west sides are separated by a palace wall."

"Lu Ci's entry into the palace is only for face-to-face, so we must go to the eastbound palace, but our destination is the westbound palace, so after we enter the palace in Luci's carriage, we drive through the royal road in the carriage and before we actually enter the eastbound palace. , you must come forward to delay Lu Ci, so that we can get out of the carriage and go to the Westbound Palace."

After finishing a brief demonstration on the table, he looked up at Qin Jin and asked, "Second Young Master, do you understand?"

Qin Jin recalled the general appearance and route of the palace in his mind, and nodded to show that he understood.

"It's good to understand," Rong Jing wiped the water stains on the table with his big hands, and said again: "Okay, it's getting late, we will divide into two groups, and you, second son, will follow Lu Ci's carriage from a distance. Go back to the palace, and Fenghua and I will take Lu Ci's car."

The sky is light and dark.

Rong Jing and Qin Fenghua lay down in the grass beside the official road, staring closely at the other side of the official road.

This is an official road leading to the palace, and it is the only way for Lu Ci.

Qin Fenghua looked up at the sky, lay down beside Rong Jing, and whispered to him: "What time is this, why hasn't Lu Ci's carriage come yet?"

Rong Jing pressed his ears to the ground, listening carefully to the movement on the ground.

After a while, Rong Jing suddenly said: "Here we come!"

Qin Fenghua's expression froze, his eyes narrowed slightly.

Soon, a two-horse carriage drove quickly from far to near in the night.

In the carriage, on the small case was the memorial that needed to be passed on to Emperor Yongjia tonight. Lu Ci sat in the carriage calmly with his eyes closed, and could hear the sound of the carriage wheels rolling across the bluestone road.

Suddenly, the carriage shook violently, Lu Ci suddenly opened his eyes, and asked in a deep voice, "What's going on?"

The attendants in the car went out to check the situation, and after a while, they turned back and came in and replied: "My lord, it should be that the wheel hit a rock just now. It's nothing serious, my lord, don't worry."

Lu Ci let out a low "hmm" after hearing this, and closed his eyes again, closing his eyes to rest his mind.

All his thoughts were on the meeting with Emperor Yongjia tonight, and this little episode was quickly forgotten by him.

In the dark night, two dark figures lay prone on the roof of a two-horse carriage, galloping all the way towards the palace.
