I married the crippled queen and became the most favored queen in the capital

Chapter 107 Hard to guard against

Hearing this, the old woman immediately covered her head with her hands, shook her body, and almost fell down.

Seeing this, another old woman hurried forward to support her, and then she also came forward.

"Sir, can you see that we are in the city for something? I'm sure you're not ordinary people. To be honest, this is my sister-in-law. My nephew was imprisoned for stealing and is locked up in the capital's Tianlao. We are here to see him and to give him some gifts at the government office to see if we can get some leniency. You said that our trip is a bad omen? Is there any basis for it? How can we solve it?"

Seeing that the two women were already on their way, Leng Yiyan's eyes became even darker.

He half-closed his eyes, pondered for a while, and then said solemnly:

"Since we have the fate to meet here, I will tell your fortune for free. Your sister-in-law's face is blue and her forehead is black. This is not a good sign. You will definitely have an argument with others when you enter the city this time. If you want to see your nephew smoothly, you must break this calamity before entering the city..."

"Sir, how do we break this calamity? Please give me some advice."

Leng Yiyan shook his head mysteriously.

"The secret of heaven cannot be revealed. You two should figure it out for yourselves!"

After saying that, he turned around and stood in the team again. Ling Xiao and Su Yi were both confused by his actions just now.

After whispering for a while, the two old ladies seemed to understand something.

Just as Leng Yiyan and the other two were about to reach the city gate to be inspected by the officials, a sudden noise came from behind.

When everyone looked over, they saw the two old ladies and several people swearing at each other, and soon they started fighting.

Upon hearing this, Chu Hanxiang took a dozen guards and rode off to investigate. At this moment, the officer found Leng Yiyan.

"Where did it come from?"

"Youzhou Pass..."

"What are you doing in town?"

"Sir, I'm going to the city to tell fortunes for people and make a little money..."

As he spoke, he slipped a silver ingot into the officer's hand when no one was paying attention.

"Sir, we are late in entering the city and will miss today's big market, which will affect our business. Please let the three of us brothers go in earlier!"

The officer weighed the silver in his hand, nodded with satisfaction, and then waved his hand. The three of them entered the city smoothly.

After entering the city, they did not dare to stay for a moment and went straight to the main street.

Ling Xiao looked towards the city gate and saw that no one had noticed them, so he asked alertly:

"Sir, what should we do now?"

"Go to the area near the Prince's Mansion and find out the situation first. Then find a way to get in after dark."

After Ling Xiao and Su Yi nodded together, they carried their loads and followed the fortune teller. After asking along the way, they arrived at the Prince's Mansion.

"Sir, there are many guards in the Prince's Mansion. It seems that Chu Hanxiang is very cautious."

Leng Yiyan's eyes flashed with contempt, and then he snorted.

"He is guilty of a crime. He stole something that was not his. I'm afraid he won't be able to sleep well at night."

"Sir, how are we going to find out where the princess is staying today?"

Su Yi suddenly realized and said:

"Sir, let's go to the back door and see if there is a way to get in."

Leng Yiyan felt that what he said made sense, so he took the two of them around to the back door of the Prince's Mansion.

This is a remote street, but there are pedestrians walking back and forth.

At this time, Ling Xiao pulled Leng Yiyan,

"Sir, look over there."

Looking in the direction of his finger, they saw two porters carrying loads and walking towards the back door. Leng Yiyan hurriedly nodded to them. They picked up the loads and walked quickly towards the two men.

After a while, the two of them took the opportunity to go into the mansion to look for their own women, gave the two porters two taels of silver each, and took over their work.

After nodding to Leng Yiyan from a distance, they carried their loads and entered the mansion.

At the back door, Ah Chu looked them up and down and asked doubtfully:

"Why did you change people today?"

Su Yi hurriedly replied:

"The guy who delivered the food yesterday had an accident at home, so we temporarily replaced him."

Ah Chu did not doubt any more and directly instructed them:

"Come in, there are many women in the mansion, so you should know some rules and don't walk around the mansion. Send the food to the kitchen and come out quickly."

Ling Xiao and Su Yi nodded in agreement.

"Okay girl."

With Ah Chu's permission, the two of them picked up their burdens again and headed towards the Prince's Palace.

After entering the mansion, they exchanged glances and began to act separately.

Ling Xiao went east and Su Yi went west. The two men were carrying loads and looking around from time to time.

At this moment, the housekeeper of the mansion saw Su Yi running around in the mansion and immediately came over.

"Hey, vegetable carrier, what are you doing?"

Su Yi hurriedly bowed down, pretending to be terrified.

"I came to deliver food for the first time today, and I couldn't find where the kitchen was."

The butler did not doubt it, but pointed to a place not far away.

"There, go through the moon gate and go inside."

Su Yi nodded and bowed to express her thanks.

"Thank you for your advice, sir. I'll go right away."

After saying this, he frowned, thinking to himself that nothing must happen to Ling Xiao, and walked in the direction pointed by the butler.

Here, Bai Lan just walked by with a plate of fruit and saw the vegetable vendor looking at the entrance of Qiuxiangyuan. She immediately shouted angrily,

"What are you looking at here, you dare?"

Hearing Bai Lan's voice, Ling Xiao looked up in joy. When Bai Lan saw his face clearly, she immediately covered her mouth in shock.

"Ling Xiao?"

When Ling Xiao saw her, he walked up to her excitedly.

"Bai Lan, is that you? What a coincidence? Where is the princess?"

Bai Lan looked around and pulled him directly into the gate of Qiuxiang Garden, then asked in a low voice,

"Why are you here? Is the prince here too?"

Ling Xiao nodded impatiently.

"Yes, tell me quickly, where does the princess live? How many people usually guard her yard?"

Bai Lan raised her hand and pointed at the yard where they were.

"We'll live here, Qiuxiang Garden. There are usually guards and maids guarding the courtyard, but for some reason this morning, all the people left. Tell the prince to be careful and not fall into the enemy's trap."

"Okay, tell the princess that the prince will come to see her at 10:00 tonight. When the time comes, you should try your best to provide him with convenience."

Bai Lan nodded excitedly.

"I understand. Go back and tell the prince that the princess has always been a perfect virgin. Please rest assured."

Just then, the butler heard the noise and walked over here, asking:

'Hey! Is that vendor also lost? Follow me.'

Hearing this, Bai Lan came out to explain.

"Yes, he couldn't find the way and is asking me to take him there. I have to go deliver some fruit to the princess and I don't have time to spare."

After leaving these words, Bai Lan winked at him, then took the fruit and went straight to the main room where Luo Nianxi was.

Ling Xiao also followed the butler and walked towards the kitchen.

After Bai Lan returned to her room, she couldn't wait to close the door.

"Miss, ma'am..."

Luo Nianxi came out from the inner room and frowned when she saw her panicked look.

"Got chased by a dog? Are you in a panic?"

She put down the fruit plate in her hand and looked at her mysteriously.

"Miss, who do you think I saw outside?"
