Chapter 106: My heart is in turmoil
"He's not going to die!" Qin Xingyi calmly replied to Princess Jin'er.
"Guard Zhang, how can you be so sure?" The maid Xiaolian didn't hold a grudge against Zhang Guard's push on her heels, and could understand that he was doing this for his master, but she felt that Zhang Guard's mouth was big, and the crimes committed by the three princes were intolerable, and eighty percent would be executed.
"Because ......" Qin Xingyi stopped talking and smiled implicitly, making Xiaolian feel that there was a secret hidden in this smile.
"Guard Zhang, this princess just wants to ask His Royal Highness the Third Prince a question, can you persuade him to answer this princess's question first?" Princess Jin'er is a very tolerant person, and although she is facing the sad situation of being ruined, she still wants to ask the reason so that she can judge whether she can forgive him.
Qin Xingyi stood in the rain in the rain, his clothes were soaked, the wind and rain kept blowing on his body and felt very cold, thinking: I am not injured and I still feel so cold, Xuanyuan Mingyu will definitely feel surprisingly cold when he is seriously injured and hung on a tree, I want to rescue him as soon as possible, I don't want Princess Jin'er to be entangled too much, and replied: "Your Royal Highness Princess, please go back to the room to rest first, these problems are still waiting for the rain to stop." Look, His Royal Highness the Third Prince is like this, and it is impossible to answer questions well. ”
Princess Jin'er understood that what Guard Zhang said was reasonable, and the more anxious she was to know the answer, the more she couldn't know, but how could she go back to her room to rest with peace of mind? She was really unwilling, and asked melancholy: "Your Royal Highness the Third Prince, please be merciful and tell me!" Are you not willing to answer Princess Ben's question? Or is it because they beat me all over and can't speak? ”
Xuanyuan Mingyu knew that Princess Jin'er was innocent this time, and she had great sympathy for her in her heart, if she could speak, she would have told her that this matter was not her fault, and of course it was not a mistake that she deliberately wanted to make, but there was someone behind the hatred to make it bad.
In the wind and rain, Xuanyuan Mingyu shook her head as much as she could, suffering from not being able to speak, and unable to say some comforting words to Princess Jin'er.
The appearance of Zhang's guards and their calm response made Princess Jin'er gradually calm down, and she paid attention to the painful state of Xuanyuan Mingyu being hung up at the moment, and finally stopped asking, sighed, but refused to leave, and stood under the jujube tree in a daze.
Qin Xingyi knew that Princess Jin'er would not cause any more trouble, so she turned her head to the maid Xiaolian and the guard and asked, "What else do you two want to say?" ”
The guard didn't answer, and stood not far away, just watching with a knife.
The maid Xiaolian softened because of Princess Jin'er's attitude, and understood that she was not suitable for blocking alone, not to mention that Zhang Guard's heart was to save the master, and see what he would do?
Qin Xingyi waited for no one to stop him, relaxed a sigh of relief, turned around, pulled out the dagger, and gently cut off the strangled tree strip on Xuanyuan Mingyu's wrist, seeing his body slipping down in the rain, he hugged his arms, squatted on the ground, and took him into his arms.
Princess Jin'er stepped forward silently, stood behind Qin Xingyi, looked at Xuanyuan Mingyu's face full of rain marks and looked haggard, and didn't say much, feeling that everything didn't matter, she just had to follow him.
The maid Xiaolian found that Princess Jin'er was depressed, and she was obviously stimulated to become stupid, and she felt ashamed, feeling that she was not thoughtful in taking care of the princess, and she failed to try to save her as desperately as Zhang Guard, so she was even more depressed, and stepped forward with an umbrella to cover Princess Jin'er from the rain, and by the way, she also blocked Xuanyuan Mingyu under the umbrella.
Xuanyuan Mingyu fell into Qin Xingyi's arms, and suddenly couldn't feel the raindrops hitting his face, and he felt that the rain had stopped for a while? No, the sound of rain in my ears was still noisy, and when I opened my eyes slightly, I saw Qin Xingyi's concerned look in front of her, and she couldn't help but let out a bitter inquiring look: Why are you doing this?
Qin Xingyi gently hugged Xuanyuan Mingyu's cold body, there was no way to answer his question, when would his ambivalence be resolved? She didn't know.
The guard stood nearby and saw it clearly, the three people around the three princes were very kind and loving, if he was concerned and cared for by them at this moment, he would feel that he had not lived in vain, how good would it be!
As soon as the guard had a thought, he heard messy footsteps at the gate of the east courtyard, and seven or eight people walked in, it was Prince Su Meng, the county magistrate, and several guards.
Prince Sumeng walked in front, and as soon as he stepped into the courtyard, he saw that Xuanyuan Mingyu had actually been put down from the jujube tree, and he was very angry, walked a few steps, and stepped forward and shouted: "Who is so bold? Dare to untie the little lewd thief! ”
Qin Xingyi didn't expect Prince Sumeng to come suddenly, and hurriedly knelt on one knee in the rain, let Xuanyuan Mingyu sit on the ground, leaned his upper body on his chest, faced Prince Sumeng, and replied calmly: "I did it!" I am Zhang Hao, the personal guard of the Three Princes. ”
Prince Su Meng was taken aback, but he didn't expect a small guard to dare to act without his own orders, and asked angrily, "Guard Zhang?" Who borrowed your guts to dare to disobey the orders of this prince! ”
Qin Xingyi didn't care about Prince Sumeng's anger, and retorted: "His Royal Highness the Prince asked so strangely! I am the guard of the three princes, and I also obey the orders of the three princes, and I don't need to disobey the so-called orders of His Royal Highness the prince with courage! What's more, my master is the envoy of the Xuanyuan Dynasty, and His Royal Highness the Prince brutally hanged the three princes indiscriminately, and is he not afraid that the Xuanyuan Dynasty will ask the master of the Danjiang Kingdom for this? ”
Prince Su Meng was not frightened, especially when he heard Zhang Shiwei actually mention that the Xuanyuan Dynasty would raise a teacher to ask for guilt, in that case, his earlier wishful thinking would be in vain, and his real purpose in promoting peace was to use the strength of the Xuanyuan Dynasty to naturally ascend to the throne of his father.
Of course, Prince Su Meng will not let go of Xuanyuan Mingyu, so far, judging the situation, the other party has only one personal guard, Shan Shigu, and there are at least six or seven guards on his side, the two sides are fighting, and his side has a good chance of winning, thinking of this, he threatened: "Ridiculous!" Could it be that Zhang Guard, just by you, wants to start asking for guilt at this moment? You might as well open your eyes and see, there is a huge disparity in strength between the two sides! Hurry up and hand over the little whore! ”
Qin Xingyi grew up in Xifeng Building since she was a child, where would she be threatened by others? She smiled indifferently, picked up a few broken tree strips on the ground, rubbed them casually, turned them into a handful of small thin strips, held them in the palm of her hand, and said calmly: "The third prince has been tortured enough by you, and it is impossible to hand it over to you!" Even if there are many of you, this guard will not be afraid. ”
Princess Jin'er stood behind Qin Xingyi and suddenly asked, "Guard Zhang, it's rare for the third prince to meet such a loyal guard as you!" Don't be afraid, Princess Ben will be on your side. ”
Qin Xingyi heard Princess Jin'er's praise, smiled, and sighed in her heart: Of course you don't know, princess, but unfortunately I am now a guard, and I can't tell you clearly that he is my person, whether he lives or dies, he will always belong to me!
When Prince Su Meng heard what Wang Mei said, he secretly said that the sister was confused, and it had come to this point, why did he still protect him? asked: "Jin'er, this little thief ruined your life, don't you hate him?" ”
Princess Jin'er had tears in her eyes, feeling that even if she succeeded in making peace, she was just a doll, so what joy was there in marrying an elderly emperor? She was silent for a long time, her whispering echoes almost drowned out by the sound of wind and rain, and she replied in a low voice: "What can you do if you hate him?" Nothing can be recovered! Actually, Brother Wang, since the day I decided to make peace, my life has been doomed to be ruined......"
Prince Sumeng could hear that Jin'er Wang Mei was unwilling to kiss, but he did not approve of Wang Mei's idea, thinking that Wang Mei's lifelong events should be arranged by her father, and it was a matter of course to marry her relatives for the sake of national interests.
Prince Sumeng was very angry, thinking that the consequences caused today were all caused by Xuanyuan Mingyu, and he wanted to kill him with his own hands! Caught off guard, Prince Su Meng stretched out his hand and pulled out a saber from the waist of a guard beside him, aimed at Xuanyuan Mingyu and Qin Xingyi, and said: "Sister Wang, there is still a turning point in the matter of harmony, while the news has not been leaked yet, just kill these two people!" ”
Princess Jin'er was taken aback, her brain was not very good, wasn't her brother covering his ears and stealing the bell? Things have already happened, and there is no turning point! She stood up in front of Xuanyuan Mingyu and the others, and said so decisively for the first time: "Even if you kill the third prince and Zhang Guard, it is impossible for Jin'er to marry the emperor of the Xuanyuan Dynasty!" ”
Prince Su Meng was furious, held back his anger, and said angrily: "Jin'er, you have been spoiled by your father!" Don't get an inch, it's up to your temperament! The affairs of harmony must be carried out as usual, and all obstacles must be removed! ”
"Brother Wang, are you trying to force Jin'er to die?" Princess Jin'er became sad, tears rolling down her cheeks. She has always been weak, everything has been arranged by her father and brother since she was a child, and today for the first time, the idea of death sprouted!
Of course, Prince Sumeng would not kill his own sister-in-law, but the sister was confused and didn't understand the meaning of her words, so she had to appease her sister first, and then threw the saber in her hand into the rain, and her tone softened a lot, and she persuaded: "Jin'er, brother loves you, you know." ”
Princess Jin'er couldn't help Prince Sumeng's kind words and persuasion, and felt even more aggrieved, covered her face with her hands, smoked and cried, crying: "But, now my heart is really messy, what should I do?" ”
"Jin'er don't worry, the matter of harmony will be discussed later."
Seeing that the opportunity had come, Prince Su Meng stepped forward and grabbed Princess Jin'er's wrist, and said to the maid Xiaolian: "Hurry up and send the princess back to the West Courtyard, change her clothes and clean her face, and take a rest." ”
"Yes, at the behest of His Royal Highness the Prince." The maid Xiaolian agreed, holding an umbrella in one hand and holding Princess Jin'er's arm with the other, and walked back in a shuffling manner.
Princess Jin'er's emotions experienced several ups and downs, her spirit was almost on the verge of collapse, her teary eyes were blurred and she couldn't distinguish the direction, she was pulled by Xiaolian in a daze, and walked out of the arched door of the east courtyard with messy steps.
