The young man rescued her and left in a hurry, followed by the servants who followed her and sent her home. She had no way of knowing what was going on, because she had been in a coma for three days, followed by another three days of high fever.

When she comes to her senses, there is only one month left before the day of marriage.

The imperial doctor said goodbye to her after checking her pulse and returned to King Heng's Mansion.

After listening to the imperial doctor's reply, Song Chen, the king of Heng, finally soothed a little between his eyebrows, since the person is no longer in trouble, the worries in his heart can also be alleviated a little, but he has just set up a marriage with Chu Fu, and this incident happened, is it an accident or artificial?

Not long after the imperial doctor retreated, he called out to the door: "Gao Li." ”

Gao Li is his personal guard, ranking first among the six guards of the Hengwang Mansion, and is his absolute loyal servant. After Gao Li came in, he consciously covered the door, and Fang stood up in front of the master: "Lord." ”

"How's it going?"

Gao Li's face was serious, "According to the clues I just got, the fast horse that day should have gone to the west of the city, but most of the west of the city are farmhouses, and their specific whereabouts are still under further investigation, and they cannot be determined yet." ”

West?

There are several granges of large families in the west of the city, and if he remembers correctly, the prince's Bilu Garden is also in the west of the city.

Song Chen sneered lightly, and the subtle changes in his face that were almost imperceptible made Gao Li, who was standing in front of the table, subconsciously clench his fists.

"What about the rescuer, can you find it?" Song Chen asked lightly.

Gao Li replied honestly: "Please surrender the prince, it is said that the rescuer left after rescuing Miss Chu, because the scene was chaotic at that time, and the people of the Chu family took care of their own miss, so the subordinates did not find any clues." ”

Hearing the mention of Chu Xue in the words, he felt a little soft in his heart unconsciously, and thought for a while before ordering: "That's it, take good care of Chu Mansion these days, don't let them have anything happen before marriage." ”

"Yes."

He raised his hand, and Gao Li gently exited the room again.

~~

Prince Song Zhao has been very unhappy recently.

This time, the father only summoned back several other brothers who were separated in the name of celebrating his fifth birthday, which was obviously different from previous years.

Because he was born to the queen, he was named the crown prince when he was one year old, and it has been thirty-one years now. For thirty-one years, his seat has been sitting firmly, and the rest of the princes have been divided into other places when they became adults, and he is the only one who has been sitting firmly in the East Palace. He thought that it was a matter of course that the position of the crown prince belonged to him, and that he would be the only one who would be in charge of the world.

However, the father was not the crown prince earlier, but sat on the dragon chair only after the guò mutiny. So can his own crown prince sit safely until the time of succession?

The most unfathomable thing in this world is the word variable.

Among the six princes other than him, the eldest has the status of the eldest son of the emperor because of his low status as his biological mother, but he has always been indifferent and secluded from the world, and he really has no advantages except for calling him the eldest brother on weekdays. The fifth and sixth children like to enjoy comfort, one is romantic, the other is reckless, and the father naturally doesn't take them seriously, and there is another seventh, who is just coming of age now, and it really can't be shaped......

In this way, the only ones who can pose a threat to the city government are the third and fourth, but the third child's biological mother Jing Guifei has a higher rank than the fourth child's biological mother, Duan Concubine, and in terms of current achievements, the third child is indeed more in the limelight.

However, just two days ago, the third child who was in the limelight actually married the Governor of the Imperial History, which simply added fuel to the fire! Chu Lin, the old fox, looks upright on weekdays, but now that he is a little troubled, he turned to the third child so completely, and he really underestimated him in the past.

If it goes on like this, with Chu Lin's weight in his father's heart, won't the third child be valued again?

If you want to blame it, you can blame yourself for the positions of the concubines and concubines in the palace who are full early, otherwise he will marry the daughter of the Chu family in a few days, isn't it him!

Such a wonderful chess game actually allowed the third child to seize the opportunity......

The prince's heart was extremely troubled.

~~

Because the emperor's birthday is imminent, and in time for the triennial martial arts test, the martial arts practice field of the Beijing Health Division has been unprecedentedly lively these days.

On the last day of the martial arts test, led by the crown prince, the princes came to the Beijing Health Division to watch the results of the selection on the spot. The weather is fine, and the hanging sun reflects the martial arts fights of the masters on the martial arts field, which should be a wonderful scene, but after a long time, there are always people who are bored.

On the stands that had erected the pergola early, there were six princes and one prince sitting at the moment, and the scene was comparable to the presence of the emperor in person, and the samurai on the field naturally tried their best to fight. Just as the martial arts fight on the field was gradually exciting, King Shen, who was the worst martial artist in the stands, opened his mouth and interrupted, he looked at King Heng, who was watching the audience intently, and said casually: "Hey, third brother, I heard that you have married Du Yushi, this speed is really fast enough, when did you fall in love with Chu Lin's daughter?" ”

King Shen has always been a good beauty, and it is not strange to ask such a question, as he asked, everyone also looked away and looked at King Heng curiously.

King Heng, who had just withdrawn his gaze from the field, smiled faintly, "It's nothing, did you meet someone you like, and there is a lack of side concubines in the house, so it's decided, aren't you all early?" ”

King Shen nodded and quipped: "There are really not many things that can make you fall in love at first sight, and you can leave the position of the side concubine until now, it must be a beauty, how about it, do you want to set up wine?" When will it be brought out for us all to see? ”

"Follow the rules." King Heng denied it, and turned his gaze to the audience again.

King Shen didn't get any bargain, so he looked away, looked around many times, and finally landed on a rather beautiful maid who was serving their tea not far away.

Half an hour later, the martial arts test ended, too

The prince, who was just about to get up, was stunned when he heard this, and immediately found a comfortable position on the seat, and said with a smile: "It's also true, the hour is still early, and the field is also rare,...... Why don't you let your guards shine on the field! Everyone also saw and saw who had the best talent in the house. ”

This semi-imperative mention was immediately approved by King Rui, "This is a good idea, who will go first?" ”

The prince raised his hand, "The East Palace will throw bricks first, starting with the eldest brother, and then the third and fourth will go down the line." ”

As soon as the words fell, the prince's guards immediately listened to the command and went on the field, competing with the people of the eldest Huai Wangfu.

Taking advantage of everyone's eyes to turn to the stage, King Heng looked sideways, and glanced at Gao Li beside him, Gao Li immediately lowered his eyelids and understood.

After a while, Huai Wangfu unexpectedly lost, and it was Gao Li's turn to play, Gao Li understood the meaning of the master, and only used four points of skill in the competition, and naturally lost to the East Palace lightly. This situation was staged twice in succession, and it was not until the people of the Old Sixth Rui Mansion took the stage that the East Palace guards who also had reservations were defeated, and the people of the Old Seven Qi Palaces were also not very beaten, and they also fell into battle after a while, and only the people of the Rui Palaces were left on the field.

Lao Liurui Wang looked very dissatisfied, raised his eyebrows and said, "What's the matter?" Why are they all like they haven't eaten? Look down on me, don't you? I don't believe it, can Gao Li's kung fu be so bad? And the second brother, do you have some idle meals in the East Palace? ”

The crown prince could naturally see that Gao Li did not go all out, but his own people did have reservations, so he had nothing to refute, he just wanted to divert the target, his eyes were swept unintentionally, and he saw several young people from the Jing Wei Division, and then ordered casually: "Since the Lord Rui is not happy, the Jing Wei Division will send someone out." ”

The commander of the order turned his head and discussed with several subordinates, and after a while, a young man in a red-clothed official uniform walked into the center of the field and saluted several princes in the stands, his voice was bright and full of confidence.

"Zhang Zheng, the secretary of Weichen Jingwei, is willing to sacrifice his ugliness in front of your highness."

"Good! Since King Rui wanted to see the pleasure, he let go of the fight, and also asked the palace to see if there were any white-collar workers in the imperial court. ”

The prince spoke, and a real fist and foot contest immediately started on the field, although the two sides did not use weapons, but they were full of sincerity, so it looked very exciting, and even King Shen, who had always stared at the beauty, paid attention to the field at this moment.

After thirty moves, Zhang Zheng defeated Ruiwangfu with one punch. He stood up and saluted again, and was about to step down, when he saw King Rui, who was still clamoring just now, suddenly drew his sword, jumped straight from the stands to the field, and attacked Zhang Zheng without saying anything.

This sudden accident shocked everyone present and caught Zhang Zheng off guard. If the other party is an ordinary person or a bandit, he can fight back immediately and mercilessly, but the person who comes is a dignified prince, how can he parry? King Rui's sword was aggressive, and Zhang Zheng, who was bare-handed, dodged again and again, seeing that the other party refused to fight back, King Rui actually used a killing move.

Seeing that the sword in King Rui's hand wanted to take Zhang Zheng's life, before the prince could speak, another blue-shirted young man in the field suddenly jumped into the middle of the field, and only used two or three moves of the scabbard to pick off the murderous sword in King Rui's hand, preventing this absurd challenge.

Just when King Rui was surprised, the young man stood still, bowed his head very respectfully, and said: "Please calm the anger, Zhang Zheng is upright by nature, if you anger the prince, please bear with me and show mercy to my subordinates." ”

Everyone in the stands was also amazed by the skill and courage of the young man, and they were shocked and speechless. Only King Heng was the first to react and spoke: "Ji Yan, it's up to now, you are a prince, why did you start a killing move with Jing Weisi?" Don't come back soon. ”

King Rui came back to his senses, looked carefully at the handsome young man in front of him, and said in a loud voice: "Good kung fu!" Good Kung Fu! What is your name? ”

"Weichen Jingwei Division commanded Qin Yuan, and he has seen the prince." The young man is another courtesy, but his posture is neither humble nor arrogant.

"Qin Yuan, okay, this king remembers you." Rui Wang looked at it again, and finally returned to the stands.

After watching the triennial martial arts test, the people of the prince's mansion showed their fists and feet again, and they also took a glimpse of the strength of the Jingwei Division, and the princes gained a lot, and they all went back to their respective places.

In the carriage on the way back, King Heng recalled today's situation, pondered for a while, and asked, "Qin Yuan...... This king remembers that General Qin Mu's son is in the Beijing Wei Division, but is it this Qin Yuan? ”

Gao Li's deep voice came from outside the car: "Back to the master, exactly." ”

"It's a talent."

King Heng's voice was heard outside the car, and the accompanying guards fell silent.

~~

After taking the decoction for six or seven days in a row, Chu Xue's body finally got better.

It was really lucky, although the accident that day was thrilling, except for being hit, she did not have the slightest external injury to her body, and she was relieved to see that her face was still perfect in the mirror. Since that person likes her because of this face, since she must compete for favor with other women in the future, of course she must protect her own safety.

In the past, she never thought that she would one day pay so much attention to her appearance, but there was no way, who let her not escape such a fate? Since you can't escape, you have to bear it.

And, of course, take it well.

In the remaining month, in addition to preparing wedding dresses and learning the rules and etiquette in the palace, her mother also specially invited a grandmother to teach her the way of being a wife. Although her mother was the only woman in her father's life, she also knew the days she was about to face, so in order to avoid some detours in the future, she also put down her head and asked around, so she invited this grandmother, who was said to have some experience in serving men, to the house.

Although Mama can let go, she is a girl who has not been out of the pavilion is really shy, but despite being shy, because she has made up her mind in her heart, and knows the life she wants to live in the future, she has to try her best to force herself, and listen to Mama's explanation with a red face.

After the emperor's birthday banquet is completed in a few days, the princes will return to their fiefdoms, and King Heng is of course no exception. This means that after marrying into the palace, she has to follow King Heng back to Yanzhou, and the palace of Yanzhou should be her permanent residence, and the palace of King Heng in the capital only needs to live for a few months at most, despite this, King Heng still deliberately renovated the courtyards for her in both mansions to show his value to her. This move also made the family in Chu Mansion feel a little more at ease.

The night before entering the palace, my mother prepared a basket and called her to the room in the dead of night and handed it to her with her own hands. Mother said softly: "Find a place where no one is, let Yanling guard it for you, go and worship, this is a lifelong event, so let them know." ”

She nodded tearfully and took advantage of the night to leave the room.

After a while, she came to the back of a rockery in the garden, took out the fire paper in the basket, lit them one by one, and looked at the jumping fire, she couldn't help but start to cry.

"Dad, mother, brother, I'm Wenwen, tomorrow, I'm going to get married, marry into King Heng's Mansion as a side concubine. Do you all know that...... You have spirits in heaven, bless me, I ...... I want to avenge you. Her soft voice paused for a moment, refilled a few pieces of fire paper, and continued to whisper: "Sister Xue'er, you must have seen it, if it were you, you would do the same, right?" I don't want to embarrass my father anymore, I'm going to go this way, and you bless me in heaven, okay? ”

The paper in the basket burned out, and she wiped away her tears and got up. Yan Ling, who was guarding the side, came over and carefully covered up the paper ashes for her, and the words that she had endured for a long time were able to be spoken, and she felt a lot better.

Before leaving, she quietly looked at the bright moon in the sky, a smiling face flashed in her mind, and then the young man's voice and face became clear from her memories little by little.

Nian Xiu's elder brother...... She lost her mind for a moment.

For some reason, it was originally a title that belonged to the young man in her memory, and she instantly thought of the person who rescued her from the carriage that day.

"Miss, it's not too early, we're going to leave the pavilion tomorrow, let's go back." Yan Ling's soft call brought her back to her senses.

She nodded and went back to her room.
