In the next few days, everything went as Shi Qinghuan wished.
There were not many affairs in the Supervision Department, so she could carefully study the files Bailiheng gave her before. Sun Meng also successfully sent the pills to Zhuangyan Temple and retrieved them again.
Everything will fall into place, just waiting for the day of sacrifice.
It's clearing up after the snow, and the bright sunshine makes people feel warm.
Shi Qinghuan stood by the window, looking at the dazzling white outside the house, then turned around and went out. In a rare moment of interest, he folded a few plum blossoms and placed a vase by the window.
As soon as I put the vase on Bailiheng's table, I turned around and saw his figure.
He walked in quickly, with a chill in his eyes.
Bailiheng was slightly stunned when he looked up and saw the plum blossoms on the table. For a moment, there was a trace of emotion in his eyes.
It was as if a warm smoke of fireworks suddenly appeared in the gray.
Bailiheng stepped forward and stroked the plum blossoms with his fingertips, adding a bit of tenderness to the coldness.
Seeing this, Shi Qinghuan raised the corners of his lips slightly, "That's right. There should be some color in your life."
Bailiheng looked back, the two looked at each other, the breeze ruffled his hair, and his heart rippled slightly.
At this moment, footsteps suddenly sounded outside, and then a voice came over.
"Brother Baili, brother Baili..."
Shi Qinghuan's heart skipped a beat. Why was this voice so familiar?
In her doubts, a man walked in quickly.
Shi Qinghuan's expression changed instantly. He quickly turned sideways to the bookshelf behind him and slowly hidden his figure.
Because the person who came was none other than the man I met on the ghost street a few days ago.
Noticing Shi Qinghuan's abnormality, Bailiheng moved forward, just in time to block Shi Qinghuan's figure.
"Your Highness, why are you here?"
His Highness Fifth?
Shi Qinghuan's hand holding the file shook.
The fifth prince of the current dynasty was Cheng Shangju.
Everyone knows that this Fifth Highness has no intention of power or the throne, but only cares about freedom. He most likes to be in the arms of a beautiful woman and has a beautiful woman by his side.
This is somewhat similar to the one from Zhuangyan Temple, but the difference is that Cheng Shangju was not crazy because of the trend.
Cheng Shangju turned around and sat down on one side, as comfortable and comfortable as if the Supervision Department was his own home.
"Brother Baili, the intelligence of the Supervision Department is the best in Tiansheng. I have something to ask for, and I would like to ask Brother Baili for help."
"What's the matter?"
"Simple, when I was on the ghost street a few days ago, I met a woman disguised as a man. The woman was smart, cunning, and very interesting, but she also slipped away very quickly, and later disappeared without a trace. In the past few days, Come on, I haven’t been able to find her, so I want to ask Brother Baili for help.”
Hearing this, Baili Heng raised his eyebrows slightly. Thinking of Shi Qinghuan's abnormality, he immediately guessed something.
Shi Qinghuan was speechless and shrank inside.
What do these five princes want to do with her?
Bailiheng's expression remained the same as before, and he looked at Cheng Shangju with a slight smile, "I wonder why Your Highness is looking for this girl?"
"Didn't I say that? I think she is interesting and I want to get to know her."
"Oh? This is strange. Your Highness has countless beauties, but he would mobilize so many people just to find one woman?"
"She is different from them, she..."
Cheng Shangju was stunned, not knowing how to describe it for a moment, "That's a feeling, a feeling that's different from others. Brother Baili should know it."
"Why do I know?"
"You and Princess Zhaojia are childhood sweethearts and are in love with each other. How could you not know this feeling?"
As soon as these words came out, Bailiheng's eyelids twitched, and Shi Qinghuan's fingertips moved slightly, and for the first time, he moved closer to Bailiheng.
A flash of panic flashed across Bailiheng's expression, "Your Highness has misunderstood. The princess and I have only known each other since childhood!"
"Brother Baili, what is our relationship? Are you hiding this from me? By the way, I just heard from my father that Princess Zhaojia will return to Kyoto soon. By then, your marriage should be settled, right? ?”
Marriage?
Shi Qinghuan's eyes were shocked, and Bailiheng said immediately, "Your Highness, these remarks are completely unfounded. Please don't say them again. It will be bad if it damages the reputation of the princess."
"Wait, I remember that your two families are close friends. We have been married since childhood, so Brother Baili doesn't have to worry. Although Brother Baili was indeed a little ridiculous in the past few years, now you and the princess are a perfect match. !”
Shi Qinghuan heard clearly from behind, but Bailiheng's expression changed slightly. He knew he couldn't stop Cheng Shangju's words, so he simply changed the topic.
"Your Highness, what are the characteristics of the woman you are talking about?"
Upon hearing this, Shi Qinghuan silently huddled in the corner again.
Cheng Shangju, on the other hand, was successfully diverted.
"I'm not afraid of Brother Baili's jokes. I haven't actually seen that woman, but her eyes are very smart, and she has a temperament that no one else has..."
"In that case, how can I help you find it?"
"Tsk, Brother Baili, I know what your Supervision Department is capable of, but something is wrong with you today. You clearly don't want to help me!"
With that said, Cheng Shangju stood up and said, "Since you don't want to help me, then..."
He suddenly turned around, walked around Bailiheng, and walked behind Shi Qinghuan.
"This is also from the Supervision Department, I guess. You sirs are busy with things, why don't you come and help me?"
Shi Qinghuan's nerves tightened and he didn't dare to move at all, let alone speak!
Bailiheng stepped forward quickly, "Your Highness, when did I say I wouldn't help you? He has too many things to do."
As he spoke, he also deliberately emphasized his tone towards Shi Qinghuan.
"Don't you still have a lot to do? Why don't you get down quickly?"
Shi Qinghuan nodded quickly, turned around and walked out from the other side.
The pace was so fast that he was only one step away from flying out.
But just halfway through, Cheng Shangju suddenly said, "Wait a minute."
Shi Qinghuan didn't dare to stop and even accelerated.
He turned around and disappeared out the door.
Cheng Shangju was surprised in his eyes, "Brother Baili, although your Supervision Department is directly under the father and supervises all officials, there is no need to be so indifferent to people, right?"
"Your Highness has misunderstood. She actually...has a bad ear!"
"That's it!"
On the other side, Shi Qinghuan left the room and hurriedly hid in the side hall.
What kind of luck does she have?
How could we meet so many people again in such a huge Kyoto.
He's a member of the royal family again!
Shi Qinghuan had no choice but to avoid it first.
Bailiheng, I should be able to handle it!
Speaking of Bailiheng, Shi Qinghuan remembered what Cheng Shangju said just now.
Princess!
Childhood sweethearts!
Baby kiss!
If Bailiheng really likes this princess!
Before that... it was all her misunderstanding?
Shi Qinghuan felt a little confused.
After a long time, Cheng Shangju's laughter sounded again outside. After confirming that the figure was gone, Shi Qinghuan quietly left the side hall.
As soon as he entered the door, Shi Qinghuan felt a chill.
Looking back, he saw Bailiheng's staring eyes.
Shi Qinghuan smiled coquettishly, "Sir, there is some misunderstanding here!"
Bailiheng's eyes fell on her bloated waist, as if he thought of something, he frowned and his expression darkened.
"He... hugged you?"
