Seventh Master, Madam didn't go back to the mansion today.

Qi Yutao hurried to the old prince's study with the letter and seal, and rushed in without even waiting for the notification.At this time, the old prince was wiping the western bayonet given by the foreign envoy, when he heard the sound of footsteps outside the door, he turned sideways, and the point of the knife precisely stabbed the neck of the visitor.

Qi Yutao was a little frightened, the sword was only an inch away from his throat, if he took one more step, Xiao Ming would directly confess on the spot.He trembled and said, "Father...Father, what are you doing?"

Prince Rong frowned: "Huh? Yutao? Why are you looking for me?"

Qi Yutao carefully placed the letter and the seal on the old prince's desk to show him: "Father...Father, someone brought you a letter."

Prince Rong opened it, quickly scanned the lines in the letter, his brows became more and more wrinkled, and then he patted the table hard.

"Nanyue City has fallen?!! Yutao! Follow me to send troops to help Nanyue City!"

As soon as the old prince took a step, he immediately stopped, turned around slowly and said in a low voice: "Remember, this matter must not be publicized! If the queen mother blames it, our entire Prince Rong's mansion will be overwhelmed." Walk!"

"Yes, Father!"

Little Qiye followed behind the old prince, and led a large group of people hurriedly out of the palace from the small gate, heading towards the army camp. Song Yitao secretly hid behind the gate, looking thoughtfully at the direction they left.

Just as she was about to turn around and leave, she heard a conversation between two men behind the rockery.

"Third brother, the father has brought the seventh brother to the army, and now the father has to take the seventh brother with him in everything. We have no use for us!" The voice of the fourth master Qi Yuze came.

"Do you know what happened?" It was the third master's voice.

"This is the letter I secretly brought from Father's room just now, take a look." Fourth Master carefully handed over the letter.

"Nanyue City was besieged by Rong Di and has now fallen, and it's the result of my father's wrong deployment of troops!" The third master took a breath and looked around vigilantly, but he didn't find Song Yitao who was eavesdropping.

"Third brother! The empress dowager doesn't even know about such a big thing?"

"As far as I know, the leader of Nanyue City, General Ruiqi, is an old subordinate of the father. He has been loyal to the father for many years. He should not report to the court. If the queen mother finds out about this, the father will be held accountable. At that time, the father's guilt will not be small." Qi Yuhan analyzed.

"There is no movement now, the queen mother should not know. When the father's army arrives at Nanyue City and successfully fights against the enemy, it will be reported to the court at that time, and by the way, give the seventh younger brother a first-class contribution to pacify Nanyue. No one will know this at that time." The responsibility of mobilizing troops is still a great achievement?" Qi Yuze looked into the eyes of the third brother, and his voice was gloomy.

"Hmph! The king father is most concerned about the fact that the seventh brother has not yet been conferred a title. With such a great achievement plus marrying a wife, the reward must be higher than that of you and me! At that time, he will have both military power and status. , the day of the hereditary prince is not far away!" The third brother gritted his teeth.

"Then what should I do third brother?"

"In this way, you find someone to put the news in the palace, and just make a fuss about this matter, saying that some time ago, the father gave the military power to Yu Tao, and it was Yu Tao's wrong guidance that led to the battle of Nanyue! At that time, he will be bigger than one!"

The two looked at each other and smiled, their eyes were full of conspiracies and calculations, never thought that Song Yitao had heard all the conspiracies.

Song Yitao was shocked.These two people are so bad, they want to push this matter to Xiao Qiye?The kind little Qiye would never have thought that his own brother would harm him like this, would he?

Song Yitao rubbed her chin, thought about the matter, and finally decided to secretly observe these two people, taking the opportunity to prevent them from releasing the news.

At the other end of the woods, the two sleepers propped their heads on their hands and fell asleep side by side.The sunlight came in mottled through the canopy of the tree, the princess was swaying in her sleep, her weightless body suddenly tilted to the right, hitting the other's head, and both of them were woken up.

"Hiss—" Li Ruyu opened his eyes to look at the sky, then looked at the dazed woman next to him with blank eyes, and lightly pushed her shoulder: "It's dawn, we should hurry back! "

The Japanese princess looked around in a daze, and finally realized that she stretched herself.The two of them sorted out their things and prepared to ride back on the white horse ridden by the Japanese princess.

The Japanese princess rolled Li Ruyu's eyes: "I will save your tricks for the time being. After you go back, you must forget everything you saw last night. Don't talk nonsense! Otherwise, this princess will still order someone to kill you." Your eyeballs were gouged out!"

"Tch, I forgot, that's it, I'm not interested." Li Ruyu said.

Mei Gong Yixue put her hands on her hips: "It's just like that! Are you saying that the princess is not in good shape?"

"I said princess, you don't want me to see it, and now you want me to comment on your figure, do you want to cut off my tongue too?"

"You!! Help Princess Ben get on the horse!" Mei Gong Yixue stomped her feet, throwing her temper.

Li Ruyu yawned and helped her onto the horse. He just woke up and was still a little confused.Mei Gong Yixue glanced at him, secretly smirked, and while he wasn't paying attention, "drive" the horse and rode away.

"Hey!! Hey! I haven't gone up yet!" Li Ruyu chased after him and shouted.

"Hahaha! You are so powerful, you can walk back by yourself!" Mei Gong Yixue slapped the horse's buttocks again, and rode farther and farther.

"Why are you a woman like this! You are the most vicious woman!!" Li Ruyu gritted his teeth angrily as he watched the people and horses drifting away.

In Rongqing Palace, Song Yitao secretly eavesdropped around the Yinyue Pavilion to see what the fourth master would do.

She put on her servant's clothes and mixed in, with her head lowered, if you didn't look carefully, you wouldn't be able to spot her fishing in troubled waters.

After confirming that no one was around, she sneaked into the window through the paper window and saw Fourth Master changing clothes. While changing, she whispered to Rong He, her personal servant, "I will go to the palace to visit Concubine Shu in a while. Follow me, wait for the opportunity to act, and remember to spread the news to the ears of the chief eunuch Dechun."

"Yes, Fourth Master." Rong He replied.

After Song Yitao heard this, she decided to follow her into the palace, but entering the palace was not something she could do if she wanted, so she decided to use the old method after thinking about it, by disguising herself as a man and acting as the fourth master's driver's entourage. Fourth master sneaked into the palace together, and then he will find a way to sneak into the palace to prevent the boy from revealing the news.

Time was running out, and fourth master was about to go out, so she hurried back to Qianyin Pavilion and changed into a servant's clothes, secretly got into fourth master's carriage, and gave the coachman a certain amount of money to keep him from talking.

In just half a cup of tea, fourth master got into the carriage, this time he only brought Rong He with him.This is a bit tricky, folk carriages cannot enter the palace, how will they get in by then?

"Forget it, let's figure out a way then!"

Song Yitao pretended to be a coachman and sat beside her with her face covered. The speed of the carriage was not slow, and it arrived at the side gate of the palace in a while. The carriage stopped in front of the gate and waited for Fourth Master to come back.

Naturally, the coachman couldn't follow in. Song Yitao was sweating a lot. Looking at the distance, there seemed to be a carriage that was more prominent and expensive than this one driving over, and it stopped beside her. A maid got off the carriage and walked to The guard next to him took out his badge and spoke, and Song Yitao took the opportunity to run to the front of the carriage and pretend to be the driver of the carriage.

But this time, no matter how much money she gave to the driver next to him, the driver just didn't show face, and even yelled, "Hey, who are you!"

Qing and Princess heard the voice outside, and asked through the curtain, "What's wrong?"

"Princess, she..."

The guard in the distance heard the movement and came over to check: "What's wrong? What happened?"

Song Yitao thought silently: I'm dead, I'm dead, it's over now.

Through the gap in the curtain, Qing and the princess carefully looked at the face of the "boy" in front of them, and realized, isn't this the little maid I saw at Tao Shizi's that day?

She coughed lightly to remind the coachman, then turned to smile at the guards, and said, "It's okay, why did it take so long to check today? Could it be that I can't even enter the palace? The queen mother called me to come. If you want to talk about important matters, you will be delayed by the time, can you take the blame?!"

"Yes! Excuse me, Qing and Princess, your carriage was only given by the Queen Mother, how dare we not let it go? It's just that we have changed a new batch of guards recently, and they are not familiar with the job at hand!"

"Come on, let's go! This dog has long eyes, do you still need to check Qing and Princess?" The guard pointed at a newcomer and cursed.

The coachman looked at Yan Qing and the princess, but didn't say a word the whole time.Song Yitao also entered the palace with the carriage smoothly.

Song Yitao buried her head down, but secretly rejoiced that she had finally sneaked into the palace.
