In fact, Rong Qingchu didn't really want to go in to see King Gaomi at this time, but he really wanted to talk to this brother who had been reunited for a long time.

It was only when he looked at the calm eyes of this brother that he realized that the two of them had almost nothing to say, and the childhood and youth, which should have been shared and beautiful memories, were the scars of the entire palace, and no one dared to touch them, nor could they bear to touch them.

Gather less and get along with more, and there is no way to figure out the preferences of the sleeping crane.

The main thing is that in today's situation, it is easy to be embarrassed to say anything.

Rong Qingchu stood for a while, and finally walked in silently.

After about an hour, he went out with a tired face, but he saw a few more soldiers outside, but there was no shadow of the sleeping crane.

"What about the third brother?" Rong Qing asked the soldier.

The soldier said: "The king of the county has already left, and ordered the small ones to stay here and guard." ”

Seeing that Rong Qingyu seemed to be about to speak, he added, "The king of the county is not in this mansion, and he doesn't know where he went!"

"......" Rong Qingchu smiled bitterly, thanked the soldier, and went back to the courtyard where he lived, at this time, Princess Gaomi and the Qi family had not slept yet, and were waiting for him together.

Rong Qingchu stepped forward to greet the princess, and talked about the experience of meeting King Gaomi: "My father told me about some gold and silver treasures buried in the Zhuangzi of the remote courtyard, and some old people who are absolutely credible...... Then he wants me to be filial to the princess in the future, so that I can treat my children well. ”

His eyes touched Tonglian, and his tone paused, but he didn't say what King Gaomi said about this concubine, "This kind of stooger, I'm afraid that you have a good relationship with your wife, you must not stay."

He only continued, "Father said that he would leave other things to the third brother. ”

Princess Gaomi sighed and didn't say anything, but Qi smiled and said: "Not to mention that we were able to escape this time, thanks to the third brother, we should have something to pay for;

When she said this, she wrung the Jinpa in her hand vigorously, trying to hide the agitation in her heart.

Although the Qi family is only a female dependant of the inner house, but she was born in a family of eunuchs, and after leaving the cabinet, her mother's family also influenced Rong Qingyu through her, how could she be stupid enough to come here, and she couldn't guess that the culprit who was defeated by her father-in-law from Chang'an and retreated all the way to this place was not the so-called Chongxin Hou Meng Guiyu at all, but the little uncle Rong Sleeping Crane?!

Now that the father-in-law and mother-in-law have even taken their own family into the hands of this little uncle, what originally belonged to the husband will also fall into the pocket of the little uncle, the husband will take some leftover soup at most, not to mention, the mother's family was deliberately thrown to Meng Guiyu, God knows what kind of situation it will be? !

Even if the Qi family has always been filial to Princess Gaomi, and they have always had the idea of befriending and even currying favor with Rong Sleeping Crane and his wife, how can there be no resentment at this time?

It's just that...... Not to mention that her mother-in-law is in front of her now, let's just say that the safety of the family is still tied to Rong Sleeping Crane, what can she do?

"Yu'er!" Qi's mood, Princess Gaomi's mother and son both understood, Princess Gaomi looked guilty, her lips squirmed a few times, and she reached out and patted the back of her hand comfortingly.

And Rong Qingchu called Qi's maiden name with guilt, but he didn't know what to say next, or after half an hour, the couple retired with Princess Gaomi, and after returning to the house where he lived, he whispered to Qi: "I went to my father's side just now, and the third brother was still in the courtyard outside when I entered the door." Later, it was probably a little long for us to talk, but when we came out, the third brother had already left. The guards said that he was not in the house and did not know where he had gone...... I thought, Ming'er went to find him. ”

Taking a deep breath, he continued, "Please ask him to help, will...... Send my father-in-law to reunite with us safely!"

“…… What do you mean, the Qi family in Chang'an has been?!" Rong Qingchu said this to his wife, originally to comfort his wife, but he was honest, but he was heard by the Qi family, who didn't know what happened to the Qi family, and asked in disbelief, "Qi family...... There are so many people in the Qi family...... Meng Guiyu him?!"

"......" Rong Qingyu regretted it at this moment, and wanted to cover it up, but he couldn't make up a decent lie for a while, so he could only sigh secretly and say truthfully, "Big brother doesn't want to be humiliated, after Meng Guiyu captured the city, he ...... First, he organized his family to resist the rebels, and then he couldn't do anything...... killed the mother-in-law and father-in-law's concubines, as well as wives and daughters, and ...... themselves The other rooms are much better, and they are said to have been taken into custody by Meng Guiyu at this time...... Lives should be fine......"

Qi Shi listened, there seemed to be countless bees "buzzing" in her brain, it seemed to be very weak and seemed to be overwhelming, her eyes widened, and after a while, she seemed to understand the meaning of Rong Qingyu's words, only to feel that her chest was hot and cold, and her throat was fishy and sweet, and she was already spitting out a mouthful of blood, and "wow" sprayed on Rong Qingqi's chest!

"Xuan'er?!" Rong Qingchu was shocked and hurriedly hugged her, "How are you?!"

Qi opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end, he felt a cold feeling surging up from his limbs, and his eyes were dark, and he lost consciousness!

Princess Gaomi had already fallen asleep, and because she heard about her daughter-in-law's situation, she got up again and ordered Aunt Zhao to personally negotiate with the guards guarding the house to ask for a doctor for the Qi family.

As the son and wife of the Gaomi Wang, the Qi family has always been pampered, and in order to seek a child, he has been nourishing and nourishing the decoction every day, and the foundation is not bad.

At this time, although he was so angry that he vomited blood, after the doctor came to see it, he said that it was not a big problem, just rest for a few days, eat lightly, and then don't be stimulated by similar stimuli, that is.

"I'll tell you something. Princess Gaomi and Rong Qingchu guarded Qi's sleep all night, and at dawn, Qi drank a calming decoction and fell asleep, and the princess left Aunt Zhao to take care of her, and took Rong Qingchu to the side room to talk.

Because the princess is also an old person after all, and her health has not been very good over the years, she has stayed up all night at this time, and she is described as haggard and has great mental exhaustion, and she has no heart to go around in circles at this time, so she said to Rong Qing directly, "That Tonglian can't stay! I told you earlier that this kind of who is unpredictable and restless should be killed! instead of staying by his side and being used to it!"

Rong Qingchu was stunned for a moment, and said, "Mother, this incident has nothing to do with Tonglian......!

"I know!" Princess Gaomi said coldly, "The problem is that although Bao'er has always been virtuous and generous, Tonglian's cheap maid has been blocking her since she entered the door! You also heard what the doctor said! You can't stand the stimulation at this time! Who can bear the situation like the Qi family's daughter? On this eye, with Tonglian in front of her, let Yuan'er see it, wouldn't it make it even worse to remind her: her mother's family has been killed and injured, and her father is alone so far missing, and her husband is empathetic and don't fall in love...... You said that once she is disheartened at this time, how can she still have a recuperation method?!"

Seeing that Rong Qingxi didn't speak, her expression became cold, and she said in a cold voice, "What? Although Xuan'er has lost her beauty now, she is your wife, and she has accompanied you in the wind and rain all these years, giving birth to children for you, honoring your parents, and even doing her duty as a sister-in-law to He'er and his wife...... Just for a reckless and woman who is only a little bit young and beautiful, you don't even care about her life?!"

"Mother!" Rong Qing said busily, "How could the child be?!...... The child just thinks that Tonglian has saved the child many times, and if she just wants her not to get in the way of Ying'er's eyes, why don't you send her away temporarily?"

Princess Gaomi looked at him in disappointment: "You want to send her away? We don't know where we will settle down at this time, where are you going to send her?! Do you have this place or do you have this manpower? Or do you think He'er will take care of your backyard chores?!"

Rong Qingchu was about to answer, but the princess didn't have the heart to listen, waved her hand and said, "Forget it, you're tired all night, so let's go and rest!

Just after sending Rong Qingchu away, the princess's face instantly became gloomy, and she ordered someone to summon Tonglian.

Tonglian timidly came to Princess Gaomi, but although she had a cautious posture on her face, she didn't have much fear in her heart.

Because before entering the palace, she had heard that her mother-in-law, well, as a concubine, she was not a serious daughter-in-law of Princess Gaomi.

However, the princess is not a fuel-efficient lamp, the side concubines and concubines and the death of concubines and concubines in the early years of Gaomi Wangfu are inextricably linked with the princess, and the miraculous thing is that after the princess did such a thing, King Gaomi still respects her very much! Such a mother-in-law, it is said that she is very satisfied with the eldest daughter-in-law Qi, and has been blocking Rong Qing from taking concubines.

Tonglian had heard of such rumors, and was even mentally prepared to be embarrassed by Princess Gaomi after entering the door.

As a result, after entering the palace, it happened to be just in time for Princess Gaomi to be abused by her lost son Rong Mianhe, and it was too late to think about how to release the suspicion with her youngest son, so she didn't care about Tonglian at all.

Later, the princess finally relieved herself and finally noticed Tonglian, but she never did anything about her, but only persuaded Rong Qingshu a few times when she summoned Rong Qingchu in private...... Rong Qingchu dragged his support and refused to move the concubine, Princess Gaomi didn't know if she didn't want to be separated from her eldest son, or if she was somewhat indulgent with her son's thoughts, and there was nothing to do.

It is Yi Tonglian who can't help but feel that the outside world has exaggerated the horror of Princess Gaomi, this princess is so powerful, so noble and so ruthless, but how can a woman be the same for her husband and son?

At this moment, I thought to myself: "Maybe it's because the yellow-faced woman of the Qi family is sick and wants me to take care of some things for her? Or is it because I want to serve the Qi family for a long time?"

Who knew that before he finished his thoughts, he listened to the instructions of the princess Gaomi: "The people have already come, what are you still doing in a daze?"

When Tonglian heard this, she thought she was going to reward herself, but she was recognized by the princess, and her face was full of joy, but she didn't want to see two healthy servants carrying into a bucket, which contained more than half a bucket of water, and with a "bang", it was heavily placed in front of her!

The splash of water wet Tonglian's skirt, and she instinctively felt ominous in her heart, but before she could figure out what this ominous premonition was, Princess Gaomi, who was sitting on the top, had already said coldly: "Do it! A cheap maid is not qualified to ask me to say anything to her!"

Tonglian was stunned for a moment, and before she could speak, she was grabbed by two healthy servants, one left and one right, pulling her hair bun, and pressing it into the bucket!

She was shocked and struggled desperately, but these two healthy servants were obviously specially selected by the princess, and they were used to doing heavy work, and they had great strength, and no matter how much she resisted, they always pressed her entire head firmly into the water.

The surface of the water in the bucket rippled violently, swaying out of the rim and damp the ground around the bucket.

But soon, less and less water came out, or even almost nothing.

And Tonglian's body has also changed from hysteria at the beginning to calm.

She fell limply, her shoulders unmoving.

The princess of Gaomi at the top only looked at it indifferently, with no emotion in her eyes, like looking at a drop of grass and water, so indifferent.

After a long time, the arm of the healthy servant was already trembling a little because of the exertion for too long, and she lightly ordered: "Let go and see!"

Tonglian's head floated up from the bucket, and the originally elaborate fallen horse bun had already fallen full of pearls when she struggled, and her long black hair floated in the water like aquatic plants, covering her face, looking indescribably weird.

The two hands-on servants felt a chill in their hearts, and subconsciously turned their eyes.

However, Princess Gaomi didn't blink an eye, and ordered: "Show your face and see with me, whether it is real death or fake death...... I remember that this was born at sea, and the water nature must not be bad, I heard that this kind of people who live on the sea, those who are gifted, can hold their breath at the bottom of the sea for a day and a half!"

When the servant heard this, he hurriedly advised: "Niangniang, the face of the drowning person is terrifying, I am afraid that it will collide with you!

"How many people have you seen who have drowned?" However, Princess Gaomi frowned and said, "I have experience in this matter, just mention it!"

The servant who heard these words was suddenly awe-struck, and was about to bend down, but a little maid came in outside, and said a little nervously: "Niangniang, the king of the county is here!"
