Chapter 264: Princess, Something Happened!
After that night's conversation, Liu Chupei did not wait for the imaginary peaceful relationship, he still went out early and returned late, and he didn't know if he was deliberately avoiding her, but he seemed to be very busy.
Originally, she thought that the two of them would go on like this, but the changes two days later caught her off guard.
She was woken up by the incense slave in the night, "Princess, wake up, princess, something has happened, princess!"
Liu Chupei woke up in a daze, it was rare for her to fall asleep these days, and she was woken up by Xiangnu, she was a little unhappy on her face, "What's wrong?"
"Something happened to the princess!" Xiangnu's eyes were red with anxiety, and she immediately took the skirt next to her as she spoke, "The princess got up first, and told you while changing her clothes." ”
Liu Chupei was frightened by Xiangnu's appearance, she grabbed her hand, "What's wrong? You tell me what's wrong?"
Her heart sank suddenly, and a bad premonition arose.
"It's not a concubine, it's the emperor!" Xiangnu was anxious and didn't know where to start with this matter, "The princess is right to enter the palace now, and now the palace is in chaos, only His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Princess Shanyin are here, and the slave is really afraid of ......"
"What about the second emperor brother, he" halfway through his words, Liu Chupei secretly annoyed, ten days ago, the imperial brother had already set out on the expedition, and only the crown prince Liu Ziye and Liu Chuyu were in the palace.
"What's wrong with my father?" Liu Chupei asked while eagerly wearing a skirt, although she said that she was a little dissatisfied with her father, but now that she heard that something had happened to him, it was impossible for her not to be anxious.
"I don't know the specific slave and maid, but just now a little eunuch in the palace came to the princess's mansion to spread the word, and before the slave and maid could ask anything clearly, they saw him running away in a hurry. He only said that the emperor had an accident in the palace and asked the princess to enter the palace quickly, and the others did not say anything else. ”
Liu Chupei's movements stopped suddenly, "Anu, will you still listen to the words of those unknown people?
She couldn't help but think back to the last time a stranger had brought a letter to Shanu, and it was that letter that ruined her.
Eat a trench and grow wise, she won't be so stupid this time.
"Princess, but the little eunuch is in the emperor's palace, and the slave and maid have seen it a few times, and they still recognize it. If something really happened to the emperor, what should I do?" Xiangnu also had some contradictions, it was because of her negligence that the princess suffered such a big crime, and this time she never dared to take it lightly.
"Forget it, let's go and see. Liu Chupei grabbed the cloak next to him, put it on his shoulder, and hurriedly walked out.
"Princess, let's wait for the horses, and when the horses come, we will enter the palace together. Xiangnu suddenly thought of something, and his eyes lit up, if he went with the horse, then even if something happened, there would be a horse to protect the princess.
"Where is he?" Liu Chupei didn't stop, just turned his head to look at Xiangnu.
Xiangnu couldn't say anything.
"Then what are you waiting for him to do!" Liu Chupei was now irritable, but he suppressed his temper and did not vent it.
"Princess, go and call the coachman. Xiangnu hurried to the courtyard.
Liu Chupei didn't know where the strength came from, so he took her back, "Don't scream, just ride a horse!
Liu Chupei ran to the stable and led a horse at random, Xiangnu had already opened the door of the side yard on the side, Liu Chupei turned over and got on the horse, and stretched out his hand to Xiangnu, "Hurry up, get on the horse!"
Xiangnu also knew that this was not the time for her to be hypocritical, even if she had never ridden a horse
, but she still got on the horse with difficulty with Liu Chupei's strength, and she was so frightened that she grabbed Liu Chupei.
"Sit tight, you're falling, I don't have time to care about you. As soon as the words fell, Liu Chupei clamped his legs and rode away.
Liu Chupei's night vision ability was extremely poor, and he could only rely on the guidance of the incense slave behind him before turning around to the palace gate.
"Who?" I heard the sound of the sword coming out of its sheath, and the guards at the gate of the palace came over.
"Linhuai Princess Liu Chupei, don't open the palace gate for me!" Liu Chupei's voice was particularly loud at the empty city gate.
For some reason, she felt that the gate of the palace today was very strange, but she couldn't tell where it was.
The visitor was stunned for a moment, "Princess, before the palace door is opened, please go back to the house first." ”
Liu Chupei frowned, "You are so bold that you dare to stop me." I have an urgent matter to tell my father, if it is delayed, can you take responsibility?"
"Princess, the emperor has rested at this moment, if there is something wrong, please come back tomorrow. The guards in front of him didn't let go.
"Presumptuous, how did you talk to the princess? Can you stop the princess?" the guard sitting behind him said sharply.
Just as the guard was about to say something, he heard the man at him say:
"Forget it, Anu, then let's go back, it's just a trivial matter, let's come back tomorrow." ”
"Princess!" asked Xiangnu, suppressing her voice.
There was clearly an accident in the palace, and I was in such a hurry just now, why do I have to go back now?
Liu Chupei rode the horse back without saying a word, and she slowly stopped at the corner of the street, immediately dismounted, and dragged the incense slave down.
"Princess, what are we ......" Shanu's eyes widened, and now she became more and more confused about what was happening.
"Shhhh ”
"Princess, why don't we enter through the main entrance?" she actually wanted to ask, why is it so sneaky?
"The guards at the palace gate have changed. Liu Chupei's voice was tinged with a touch of seriousness that she usually didn't have.
"The slave and maid know, after the third watch, the person guarding the door will be replaced. ”
"I mean, with a new batch of people, I'm very angry. She went out of the palace so often, most of the guards guarding the door were familiar with him, and the voice just now couldn't be stranger.
Obviously, the previous person was replaced, which made Liu Chupei even more anxious, thinking about it like this, something big should really happen in the palace.
The guards at the door are probably Liu Ziye and Liu Chuyu's people.
Just now, her heart had been beating rapidly all the way, and she was a little stuffy, and this feeling was no different from when she passed by Hanzhang Hall on the day she got married.
She didn't dare to delay any longer, avoided the guard's sight, and went with Xiangnu to the place where she usually climbed over the wall with Xiangnu.
But to the surprise of the two of them, the outside of the palace wall was empty, and there was nothing in the place where a stone had been placed at the moment.
"Princess, how can this be?" Xiangnu looked at the scene in front of him in disbelief, "how could that stone be gone for no reason, obviously it was still there a few days ago, and it is impossible for others to know that we used it to climb over the wall." ”
"Naturally, it is impossible for others to know. Liu Chupei gritted his teeth and said.
The Xiangnu next to him didn't seem to understand what Liu Chupei meant, "That's right, only me, the princess, and Sister Xiangdong know about going over the wall." ”
When Shannu herself said this, she felt that something was wrong, "Princess...... What do you mean...... Sister Xiangdong betrayed us?"
"Betrayal?" Liu Chupei sneered, "I'm afraid it's not our person at all from beginning to end." ”
Xiangnu felt a chill down her spine when she heard this, she sometimes seemed stupid, but at this time she had to force herself to follow Liu Chupei's words.
What the princess means: Xiangdong has always been the person sent by others to hide around the princess!
When she thought of Xiangdong, who always buried her for not being clever in doing things, doing things in an orderly manner, and winning the appreciation of the princess, her heart was cold.
"Princess, then you trust Xiangdong so much, will you?"
"Are you stupid?" Liu Chupei interrupted her words unhappily, "If I trust her, will I only take you with me every time I leave the palace?" Sometimes Xiangnu's brain really can't keep up, and it's a little difficult to talk to her.
"Huh?" "Xiangnu was stunned, "Princess, you mean, you found her a long time ago......"
"Is this the time to talk about this?" Liu Chupei was so angry that she couldn't do it, if it weren't for her poor night vision, where would she bring this oil bottle.
Xiangnu shrank his head and didn't dare to speak again, and followed Liu Chupei who was walking to the other side.
Liu Chupei walked inside and picked up two waste bamboo tubes from the small bamboo forest next to her, which she threw here a few months ago, but she didn't expect it to come in handy at this moment.
She found a place where there were stones next to the wall, and placed two bamboo tubes diagonally on the side of the wall to form a slope.
Liu Chupei took a few steps back, ready to leap forward.
At this time, the person next to her suddenly grabbed her, "Princess, let the slave go first." "Such a dangerous thing, how could she let the princess go first.
If it weren't for the urgency of the matter, Liu Chupei would have wanted to open her mind and see what she was thinking, "Are you good at it, or am I good at it?" At your speed, I can go back and forth three times." ”
Xiangnu bit her lip and sighed helplessly, then she saw a figure flash in front of her, and she flipped up at once, and before she could see it clearly, the figure fell to the ground, so frightened that Xiangnu's heart was stuck in her throat.
Liu Chupei opened the side door and brought the incense slave in, and the two crept inside.
"Princess, where are we going now?" The surrounding atmosphere was oppressive, and Xiangnu smelled a hint of danger.
"Wherever there are many guards, go there. ”
Xiangnu didn't understand what Liu Chupei meant, but after passing through the silent hall and study, until she arrived at the door of the dormitory and saw two rows of guards standing, she suddenly realized.
The two of them hid behind the bushes next to them, not daring to make a sound, Liu Chupei really felt that something was wrong at the moment.
If the father was resting in the dormitory, it must be Xiao Li's father-in-law who was on duty at the door, because his father only trusted him, but now she didn't even see half of Xiao Li's father-in-law.
Neither of them paid attention at the moment, and two other figures slowly approached behind them.
By the time Liu Chupei reacted, it was already too late.
And Xiangnu's reaction was even more intense, she was so frightened that she almost shouted, saying that it was too late, and the two people behind her quickly covered Liu Chupei and Xiangnu's mouths.
"Who!" the slightest movement of the Xiangnu still attracted the attention of the guards at the gate of the temple, and five guards hurried to this side.
The hands of the two people behind them stiffened and quickly dragged them to the side.
And this time, Liu Chupei did not struggle.
