Chapter 29 (1) Hunting
In the early morning, in the cool air, in front of the palace, the officials of Dongjun were neatly dressed and pretended to see off Prince Qingran and the princess. The pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info said against his will, hoping that they would return as soon as possible.
Qingran thanked everyone, and then got into the car with Yu Zimo and went to the palace to celebrate the festival and birthday with the king of Shang.
In addition to the carriage that Qing Ran and Yu Zimo were riding, there were also five taels of carts loaded with things in the back. Compared with the loading of more than a dozen carts when they came, they returned to the palace to celebrate their birthday this time, and they could be regarded as lightly traveling.
Chang Ming rode a horse to the front as the chief of the guard, and Lu also followed him, one after the other, with other guards, to protect the chariots and horses of the prince and princess. And so the group set off.
Not long after Yu Zimo came to Dongjun, Qingran asked people to widen and repair the roads in Dongjun. People and horses and cars walked on a flat road, fast and steady. When the team left the boundaries of the East County, the speed of the march gradually slowed down.
When we set out from Donggun, the sky was still clear and blue. After leaving Dongjun, the originally clear blue sky began to be covered with a layer of gray clouds, and further on, snowflakes like broken jade fell from the sky. The road that was originally gray and black became crystal white.
The further the team went, the thicker the snow on the ground became, and the wheels crushed against the bright white snow, making a jade-like sound. "It seems like it's been snowing for a long time. Changming looked down and saw that the snow on the ground had already covered the hooves of the white horse on which he sat down. In the distance, it was snow-colored, covered in silver.
"In the winter, there were only two light snowfalls in Dongjun, and it was quickly dried out. Lu also leaned forward, and when he came to Changming, he responded.
"Could this have anything to do with the boundary river? Changming looked at the beautiful scene in front of him, remembered the continuous rain when he stole back to the capital, and said worriedly.
Lu also shook his head, "I don't know, maybe we should ask the princess." ”
"You don't have anything to do and find an excuse to see the princess, right now, the princess is with the prince, what we have to do is to protect their safety. Changming said.
"It's seen. Lu also smiled, and then made a look of full guard.
The snowflakes were heavy and landed on the roof of the car, making a rustling sound. Yu Zimo sat in the car, with a white warm fur blanket on his lap, holding a heater in his hand, looking at the silver world that suddenly descended outside the car window.
"You said this snow ......" hesitated for a long time, and then opened his mouth clearly. But halfway through the sentence, he didn't know how to continue.
"Do you want to say that this snow is beautiful, or is it suspicious?" Yu Zimo's lips moved slightly, and his voice was like snowflakes floating outside the window.
"I can't say it. Qingran replied frankly, with a cloudy sadness on his face.
"Since it's not good, let's look at it, a rare snow scene,...... Wait until Shang Du talks about anything. ”
Indeed, whether there is a problem with everything in front of them, they can't solve it for the time being, and since that's the case, worry about it unintentionally. Qingran followed Yu Zimo's example and quietly looked at the snow scene outside, and his heart gradually quieted down.
……
Lu Ye finally understood why the princess set off more than ten days in advance. In the past few days, they have been in a hurry, stopping and stopping, where the road is good, which road has a good surrounding scenery, and which way to go. Sometimes, it depends on her mood. She would stop and stay in one place all day for the sake of the view and the mood of the moment. In this way, it would be good if they could arrive at Shangdu on time.
……
Before the Spring Festival, Yu Zimo's team finally arrived in Shangdu. The king of Shang received them in the main hall. All the princes and courtiers were there, all watching them silently - Xiao Changyu's gaze was the most terrifying. Yu Zimo's every move is still dazzling. Xiao Qingran was still silent, but his body lacked the alienation, recklessness and mountain spirit before leaving. In the face of Shang Wang's inquiry, his attitude was still indifferent. All the etiquette is due to Zi Mo.
"The princess has had a bumpy journey and is very hard, so let's go back to the house and rest. King Shang asked about Yu Zimo's situation in Dongjun and the fatigue on the way back, and said to Zimo with a smile, Your courtyard has been arranged according to your liking, if there is anything wrong, you can tell me.
Yu Zimo thanked the Shang King, and then returned to the palace residence with Qing Ran.
Lu also entered the palace for the first time, and he was surprised to see everything. Yu Zimo asked Changming to take Lu Ye around, she and Qingran changed their clothes and went to see Qingran's mother together.
Wang was very happy to see his son come back, and he felt even more sorry for Zimo, only saying that she had lost a lot of weight, and blamed her son for not taking good care of her.
In front of the Wang family, Yu Zimo behaved even more obediently, which made the Wang family very moved and happy. Yu Zimo prepared many gifts for the Wang family. Ask Wang if he likes it. Wang smiled and said that as long as it was sent by her, anything would be fine.
In the evening, Yu Zimo and Qingran accompanied the Wang family to dinner before leaving.
In front of his mother, Yu Zimo seemed to be a different person. Qingran hadn't seen her mother so happy for a long time. He was very curious about when Yu Zimo prepared a gift for his mother.
Yu Zimo said that he had already bought it before he set off from Dongjun.
Back in the house, Yu Zimo called Qing Yao, Changming, and Lu also in the house.
"In two days it will be the Spring Festival. There will be a big celebration in the palace, and Xiao Changyu will definitely come at that time. Today in the main hall, I also saw Xiao Changyu. Therefore, we need to find out the terrain in Changyu Mansion in these two days, find the residence of the three Lingzhan, and catch them on the night of the Spring Festival. Yu Zimo said.
"Chang Yu's Mansion is heavily guarded, and there are spells cast by Lingzhan them, so it is difficult to go in and investigate. Changming said. He'd tried it before. Neither could the demon boy under the elm tree.
"It's a bit of a hassle, but now we have people who can get in. Yu Zimo said lightly.
"Who?"
Yu Zimo's gaze looked at Qing Ran.
"Prince?" Changming and the others were a little incredulous.
"You let me go?" Qingran saw Yu Zimo looking at him and said stunned.
"You should have been to Changyu's mansion before, but you didn't look at it that carefully. Yu Zimo said, "This time, I hope you can take a thorough turn in Chang Yu's Mansion and come back to tell us that it is best to draw a detailed picture." ”
"Okay. Qingran blinked his eyes and said calmly, "When do you want me to go?"
"Just tonight. After that, we have other things to prepare. In addition," Yu Zimo took Bai Luan from his waist, "You take Bai Luan with you, there are some things you can't see, it can see, tell me." ”
Qingran took Bai Luan and put it in his arms, "I'll go later at night." ”
Changming saw that the princess and Qingran were talking casually, as if things were very simple, and he was a little skeptical, "Prince, are you really good?" He had tried to get in, but he didn't succeed.
"Don't worry, I grew up in the mountains, and I can see things at night. Qingran said to Changming.
It's not a matter of whether you can see things at night. Changming was worried. He also needs to deal with airtight guards.
"You don't have to worry about him. Yu Zimo said to Chang Ming, "Qingran will investigate Chang Yu Mansion, the three of you, go and prepare three bundles of rope, three yellow cloths, three buckets of cinnabar, and three buckets of snow water." Remember to be clean, with no snow that has fallen on the ground. ”
"The princess wants these things to deal with the spirit occupying them?"
"Yes, prevent them from escaping with spells. ”
"Understood. Changming and Lu also went down to prepare.
