Xia Chu looked at Xiao Muhong's leaving figure in surprise. Xiao Mubai had already pulled him towards the house.
"What are you doing?" Xia Chu was dragged into the house by him.
"Aren't you going to disguise yourself?" Xiao Mubai had already taken out those objects for him and placed them in front of him.
"Didn't you say that I can't see his illness?" Xia Chu tilted his head arrogantly.
"It's not like you're entering the palace in disguise." He glanced at Xia Chu and saw that he tilted his head with a probing look in his eyes, and then continued: "The fifth prince has chosen this point. He must leave someone to eat. Don't you want to eat?"
"Oh." Xia Chu picked up the yellow powder and started to pounce on it: "Why did you suddenly allow Honghong to contact him?"
"Maybe it's the last meal for the two of them." Xiao Mubai's eyes showed a little bit of confusion: "I checked all day today, but I didn't find out who assassinated Honghong, but I found another news."
Xia Chu was pinching the corners of her eyes. After hearing these words, her hands shook. The corners of her eyes were pinched a little strangely. If it would be a waste of time to do it again at this time, she simply pinched the other side like this.
Xiao Mubai put down the hand that pinched his eyebrows, raised his eyes to see him coming out with a look on his face, and couldn't help but twitching the corner of his mouth: "Do you have a grudge against the fifth prince? Are you planning to make him unable to eat?"
Xia Chu laughed awkwardly: "My hands were shaking just now."
Xiao Mubai couldn't help laughing, took out a note from his sleeve and handed it to him.
Xia Chu took it and unfolded it. His face, which had been covered with yellow powder, turned pale. It read clearly on it, Assassination of the Fifth Prince.
"Where did you get it?" Xia Chu looked shocked.
"It was cut off halfway. This order should have been given by Concubine Li." Xiao Mubai's face was also a little solemn.
"This is unreasonable, isn't it? Didn't Prince Liyu just marry Aodenge Rile yesterday? Now he wants to kill the fifth prince, isn't he afraid of turning against the Mongolian people?" After Xia Chu finished asking, he suddenly understood why Xiao Mubai He was left in the mansion.
Perhaps it was because the news of his visit to Prince Mo's Mansion leaked out yesterday that Concubine Li became murderous.
After all, Wugetai caused this innocent trouble because he sent Xiao Muhong back home. Xiao Mubai probably wanted to take the opportunity to return his favor.
When Xiao Mubai saw that he had finished his disguise, he motioned for him to go out, but that face... still made him unable to bear to look at it.
"Killing the fifth prince does not necessarily mean he will turn against the Mongolian people. What if someone happens to not want him to go back safely?" Xiao Mubai's lips curled up with a touch of sarcasm.
"Yesterday you said you knew nothing about the Mongolian people. I think you know a lot." Xia Chu curled her lips and followed him towards the front hall.
"There is no harm in negotiating with the enemy of the enemy. What's more, the fifth prince went all the way to Beijing, but in the end he did not choose to join forces with Li Fei and the others. It really surprised me." It is impossible for Xiao Mubai to know anything about the Mongolian people. .
Even in the Western Region, which was originally isolated in a corner, he had dug out a lot of secrets. If he inquired about the Mongolian people, he would naturally be able to dig out a lot of information.
His worry yesterday actually meant that his hands were not that long...
After all, it was Shi Fuqiu's army that was stationed in the new city.
"Don't underestimate this fifth prince. Compared with his mind, he may not lose to you." Xia Chu's tone was very serious.
Xiao Mubai looked suspicious: "Ever since you returned to Beijing, you have praised this fifth prince..."
Xia Chu laughed and changed the subject: "Who gave the order to Concubine Li?"
Xiao Mubai suddenly curved his lips. Just as Xia Chu was about to urge him, the front hall was almost there, so Xiao Mubai suddenly leaned forward and whispered in his ear: "Lingmen."
Xia Chu stiffened, her eyes brightened, and then she raised her head and asked excitedly: "How did you get the contact information."
Xiao Mubai tilted his head at him and smiled slyly: "It's time to eat."
Xia Chu's heart felt as anxious as a cat's paw, but Xiao Mubai's figure had already entered the front hall.
It is impossible to ask again now.
When Xia Chu came in, Xiao Mubai had already exchanged greetings with Wu Getai, left him to have dinner with him, and ordered Han Sa to pass the dishes. He turned around to see Xia Chu and waved to him, then to Wu Ge. Taiwan introduced: "This is a friend of Qiao Mobai's accompanying him. It's a good idea to neglect him. The fifth prince shouldn't mind, right?"
Although Wu Getai turned around and saw Xia Chu's face, his body froze slightly, and then he responded: "Of course not, I was just disturbing the prince."
Xiao Muhong looked even more shocked when she saw Xia Chu's face after the disguise. She pointed at him and looked at Xiao Mubai.
Until Xia Chu bowed and said: "I have met the fifth prince and the ninth princess."
Only then did Xiao Muhong recognize his voice and her expression calmed down. She realized that news of Xia Chu's death was still circulating in the capital, so she really needed to disguise herself.
She couldn't help but take another look. It was just that it was too ugly...
"The fifth prince rescued Mu Hong yesterday. I should treat him to a banquet to express my gratitude. But at that time in the morning..." Xiao Mubai spoke first.
Wu Getai waved his hands repeatedly: "His Royal Highness King Mo is serious. I am not here to blackmail the prince for this meal today. I just had a chance to meet the princess yesterday and got to know you two. This trip is to say goodbye. "
Xiao Muhong looked startled: "Are you leaving so soon?"
"I came here to watch the ceremony, although yesterday..." Wu Getai also looked a little embarrassed, pursed his lips and continued: "Now that the marriage is over and the bride has bowed down, it's naturally time to go back."
Xiao Mubai and Xia Chu glanced at each other inadvertently. Xiao Mubai said to him: "It's better for the fifth prince to stay a few more days. When I returned to the capital, didn't I also threaten to find an opportunity to get drunk?" Just rest."
Xiao Muhong also responded: "Yes, you have been in the capital for a long time. You only went out for the first time last night, and you haven't seen many things yet."
"Yes, when I first entered the capital, who would have thought that so many things would happen. I have already said goodbye to His Highness King Yu today." Wu Getai showed a look of regret on his face and turned to Xiao Muhong to invite him warmly: "In the future If the princess is lucky enough to come to the Mongolian tribe, she will definitely take her to travel around what I told you last night."
Xiao Muhong lowered her head, glanced at Xiao Mubai, and flattened her mouth: "I'm afraid I won't be able to leave the capital."
"Mu Hong has been pampered since she was a child. She has never left the capital. She cannot bear the long journey and the harsh climate of the Mongolian people." Xiao Mubai's face grew cold.
Xiao Muhong may have simply thought that Wugetai was inviting him to be a guest of the Mongolian people, but to his ears, these words had a deeper meaning...
Xiao Muhong originally wanted to retort. She was not that delicate, but Xia Chu's eyes signaled her not to speak. Then she looked at Xiao Mubai's innocent expression, murmured for a long time, and finally took a sip of tea in frustration.
Wu Getai did not answer Xiao Mubai, but said sincerely to Xiao Muhong: "I fell in love with the princess at first sight. I wonder if the princess is the same?"
