Chapter 220: Inexplicably under house arrest
"Senior brother! Ting! Zinuo ......: "Du Jia rushed all the way back to Yingfu. Before the courtyard at the door had time to salute, she rushed in in a hurry.
"Miss, you're back!" The old housekeeper grabbed Du Jia excitedly, and almost burst into tears, "This country is going to change!" ”
Du Jia held the butler's hand and said, "Uncle Yan, don't worry!" No matter how much the sky changes, don't want to endanger every grass and tree in the Shadow Mansion! ”
"Miss, something big has happened in the court, His Majesty the King has issued a decree, please enter the palace as soon as you come back!" The housekeeper finally looked forward to the family coming back, so he cried a little and said, "Also, Ah Ting's son hasn't returned for two days, and Zixuan Gongzi has not found anyone everywhere!" ”
"Ting is gone?! What about the elder brother? "Du Jia is worried that the king will take the senior brother as a hostage in order to stabilize Jun Xueguo.
The housekeeper replied truthfully: "That boy left after the eldest lady went out!" ”
"Left? Where to? Do you have a book? "Could it be that Senior Brother has something urgent to deal with? Or did you notice something unusual, so you left the capital?
The housekeeper nodded: "Someone once sent a letter, and the old man handed it over to Ah Tinggongzi." ”
"Alright! Uncle Yan, don't worry, I'll go see Zinuo first, and then I'll enter the palace! Du Jia said goodbye to the housekeeper and walked quickly towards the courtyard where Zinuo lived.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, Zi Nuo, who was sitting at the stone table in the courtyard, raised his face and asked uncertainly, "Du Jia?" Are you back? ”
"It's me!" Du Jia walked to Zinuo's side and sat down, "There are so many things, why don't you send someone to Merlin to find me?" ”
"The address given to me by Prince Junda is fake!" Zinuo turned his face and wanted to look at Du Jia, but it was still dark in front of him, "Ah Ting went to look for it several times, but there was no Merlin as he said!" ”
"Does Zinuo Gongzi think the little monk is lying?" Junda, who had been following behind Du Jia, had anger in his tone, "That day, the little monk personally told you that Du Jia and the little monk were going to stay in Meilin on the west side of Fengming Mountain for a few days, do you want to deny it?" ”
Not to be outdone, Zinuo asked: "But Ah Ting went to Fengming Mountain in Ah Xiang Town to look for it several times, but there was no Merlin as you said!" How do you explain this? ”
"Fengming Mountain in Alang Town?" Junda was stunned, then gritted his teeth and said, "When did the little monk say that it was there?" The little monk is talking about Fengming Mountain to the east of the capital! ”
"Wind Singing Mountain? Fengming Mountain? Du Jia slid down two black lines in front of his forehead, and said in frustration, "Forget it!" I'll go to the palace to take a look, if the folk rumors are true, then we're in trouble! ”
"The little monk will accompany the lady!" Junda wanted to follow Du Jia, but Du Jia refused: "No need! I'll just go myself! Zixuan hasn't come back to find Ah Ting yet, you go and take a look! ”
"Good! That little monk will send you to the gate of the palace! Junda and Du Jia walked side by side on the street, night had fallen, the shops on both sides hung lanterns, and the shadows of the two of them were reflected on the bluestone road, which was very long!
"Be careful!" Junda gently cut Du Jia's long hair, and watched her enter the palace gate before turning around and walking in the opposite direction.
Under the leadership of the guards, Du Jia came to the imperial study, but did not see the king, and it was the talented father-in-law who received her.
"Father-in-law, His Majesty is in a hurry to find me, I don't know what's the matter?" Du Jia thought that the king was delayed and would come later, so he wanted to inquire first.
"Your Majesty has something to do today, so you can't summon Miss Se'er! But Your Majesty has an explanation, please come with the old slave! "Father-in-law Cai took Du Jia through the corridor and crossed the garden, and walked for a long time before he came to a remote palace.
The palace was hung with dazzling white silk, which looked unusually eerie in the dim moonlight.
Pushing open the door of the hall, there are two giant coffins made of gold in the center of the main hall, and two little palace maids are kneeling in front of the brazier and burning incense paper constantly, crying intermittently, like a ghost crying.
"The prince and the prince of Thailand are really ......" Du Jia looked at the two giant coffins blankly, her eyes were a little sour, and she couldn't talk anymore.
Father-in-law Cai sighed and nodded helplessly: "Your Majesty is very sad and painful to lose His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the Prince of Thailand overnight!" ”
Du Jia's eyes widened, not daring to blink, for fear that tears would fall if she blinked. Unexpectedly, the two brothers who had been surrounding him became yin and yang in a blink of an eye.
Only then did I realize that I didn't hate the prince at all, I was used to arguing with him, I was used to seeing him blushing with anger and having a thick neck, and I was used to it...... His company!
There is also the Prince of Thailand who has been following his ass since he was a child and letting himself bully, his thoughts, Du Jia has always understood! I wanted to find a chance to talk to him for a long time, but I didn't expect that all the words in my heart would not have a chance to say!
Seeing that Du Jia's face was full of grief and silent, only then did his father-in-law say the intention of coming here: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the Prince of Thailand have suffered misfortune, but now the situation is tense, Your Majesty has been working tirelessly and day after day, and has no time to guard his soul!"
Miss Se'er is a former friend of the two Highnesses, so Your Majesty would like to ask Miss Se'er to stay here for the time being, and wait for the funeral of the two Highnesses at the end of this month before leaving! ”
"Stay here?" Du Jia's face was embarrassed, it was a trivial matter to guard the spirits for the two of them, but now that so many big things have happened, Du Jia feels a little strange and wants to investigate.
If you stay here, how can you find out? What's more, she just came back, Xiao Yun and Daddy Ying are not here, and there are still many things that need to be dealt with by Yingfu!
Without waiting for Du Jia to open his mouth to explain, his father-in-law instructed himself: "You two go out with our family, just have the color girl here!" ”
"Hey...... Wait a minute...... I want to meet Uncle Guo...... Uncle ...... "Father-in-law Cai led the two maids, withdrew from the hall like a wind under his feet, turned a deaf ear to Du Jia's call, closed the door of the palace, and locked it.
"You guys, look at it! Your Majesty has an order, if she runs away, she will be killed! Although Father-in-law Cai tried his best to keep his voice low, Du Jia's internal strength recovered a little, and his ears keenly captured what he said.
Du Jia sat on the ground against the door of the palace and muttered to himself, "Why does Uncle Guo want to put him under house arrest?" ”
It's because so many big things have happened in the past few days, and the master just left and was not in the capital, so I suspect that the master is behind the ghost?
Or is it because I really listened to the rumor that 'whoever gets the artifact gets the world'! So you want to control the master and let the master help him rule the world?
Or do you want to use your grandfather as a hostage to threaten Uncle Zitai and Senior Brother to go back and stabilize the situation between the two countries......
There were too many speculations lingering in Du Jia's heart, making Du Jia feel as if he was trapped in a maze deliberately laid by someone, and the surroundings were foggy, and he couldn't find his way to come and go!
Just when Du Jia was confused, a holy decree made the Shadow Mansion, which was already leaderless, once again make waves.
Zi Xuan, who had just come back, grabbed the little father-in-law who passed the message: "Father-in-law, there are so many people in the palace, why does His Majesty the King just ask Se'er to keep the spirits of the crown prince and the prince of Thailand?" ”
"I don't know about this little one!" After the little father-in-law announced the decree, he broke away from Zixuan's hand and ran away as soon as he slipped away.
"What can I do about this?" The old housekeeper was so anxious, "The lord and the lady have not returned, and the eldest lady has been announced to the palace again, this is ......"
"Uncle Yan doesn't need to worry! Se'er will be fine! Zi Xuankeng said forcefully, "No matter what, Zinuo and I will guard the Shadow Mansion for Se'er!" The subordinates will bother Uncle Yan to appease him! I'll go to the face saint early tomorrow morning, and I'll definitely bring it back! ”
The old housekeeper bowed deeply to Zixuan and Zinuo, and said gratefully, "Thank you two sons!" If it weren't for you, I'm afraid the Shadow Mansion would have become a mess of porridge! ”
"Yan Boyan is serious! It's not too early, so you'd better rest early! Zixuan sent Yan Bo away, turned around and walked to the table and sat down.
Zinuo fumbled, made a cup of tea, and pushed it in front of Zixuan: "Still haven't you found Ah Ting?" ”
"Nope!" Zi Xuan took the tea and drank it all, "Even the old man of the Witch King who gave me the magic trick that day is nowhere to be found!" ”
Zinuo poured tea for Zixuan again, and said regretfully: "I thought that Du Jia was back, and with her Hui Lan Xin, she would definitely be able to find clues, but I didn't expect that she was left in the palace by His Majesty the King!" ”
"Zinuo, where has Du Jia gone these days?" Zixuan also regretted that after the ecstasy was lifted, he slowly remembered everything that had happened, and he blamed himself when he remembered that he had almost hurt Du Jia.
But every time I think that I was controlled by a vicious woman and lived with her as a husband and wife for more than two months, I feel a little afraid to face Du Jia! He and Du Jia can only be a pity after all!
"She and Junda Gongzi have been in the plum forest of Fengming Mountain to the east of the capital! It's not Fengming Mountain in Alang Town! But that day, I remembered what Junda Gongzi said about 'Fengming Mountain', did I really hear it wrong? Zinuo was a little unsure.
"No, it won't!" Zi Xuan twisted his eyebrows and thought for a while, and said bluntly, "Although I haven't been with Junda Gongzi for a long time, I think he is very strange, although he is dressed as a monk, he gives people a very evil feeling!" ”
"By the way, didn't he go to you? Didn't you touch him? ”
"Nope!"
At this moment, Junda, the topic of conversation between the two, was sitting in the Fengming Restaurant in Azhuo Town, discussing with the emperor in a black robe.
"Why did Se'er suddenly run down the mountain? Now that she knew these things, what if she was aware of them? The Emperor looked at Junda with concern.
Junda was still there, smiling: "Your Majesty, don't worry, we have done everything without revealing anything, even if she is suspicious and investigates, she will not find out anything!" What's more, the little monk is the person she trusts the most, and she will never doubt the little monk! ”
"Beware of the Ten Thousand Year Ship! I don't want to know about it later, I hate me! "The Emperor was a little displeased with Junda's excessive arrogance.
"Don't worry! The little monk is even more reluctant to hate her! "When I think of Du Jia, Junda's heart is soft, it is a feeling of happiness!" Your Majesty, you can still have a good conversation with Se'er at noon today, right? ”
Recalling Du Jia's eccentric appearance in the Holy Sect today, the Emperor smiled heartily: "The Sect Master is really smart, and it really impresses me to think of this wonderful method to let me and Se'er meet!" ”
"Your Majesty has won the prize! It's just a little trick to carve insects! Junda smiled faintly and brought the topic back to business, "Your Majesty, let's speed up the affairs in the palace!" ”
"Ke Se'er has returned to the capital now, if something happens in the palace, will it affect her?" The Emperor had some concerns, after all, the Shadow Mansion was very close to the Imperial Palace.
"Could it be that Your Majesty doesn't trust the abilities of the little monk? If the little monk can't even protect his own woman, what's the use of wanting this half of the country? ”
