~~
After Chu Zhaoyu left the Three Princes' Mansion, he hurriedly entered the palace and handed over a sign to see Concubine Liu to say goodbye. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Since Concubine Liu became pregnant, the rewards of Emperor Yuan and Empress Yan have come in a steady stream, and the treasury of Qi Fangdian is full of things.
Clear-eyed people know that Emperor Yuan has not given Concubine Liu the title now, and is waiting for her to give birth.
Whether her baby is male or female, as long as she is born safely, it is a sure thing to be promoted to the next level.
Many young and tender show girls in the palace secretly gritted a mouthful of silver teeth, secretly hating why they were not pregnant by themselves?
Chu Zhaoyu followed the eunuch into the Qi Fang Palace, and he had no intention of watching what treasures had been added to the Qi Fang Palace, so he just walked around the hall.
Not long after, Concubine Liu walked into the palace with a big belly, "Yu'er, why did you enter the palace today?" ”
Concubine Liu inherited the good appearance of the Hou family in Nan'an, and with the weak beauty of Jiangnan, a pair of bobbed eyes, two curved eyebrows, and should be angry and happy.
Don't look at the fact that he is in his thirties, he does not look old at all, only adds some young woman's style.
Although she has a big belly, her figure is still slim.
"Mother, have you received a letter from your grandfather's family recently?"
"I'm staying in the palace, didn't you bring me the letter last time?" Concubine Liu walked to the main seat and sat down, frowning slightly, "But what's the news?" ”
"Today, the third brother asked me for a drink and said...... Go down first! Chu Zhaoyu wanted to open his mouth, saw the minions all over the ground, and closed his mouth to drive people away. Those palace maids and attendants naturally had eyes and slowly retreated.
Concubine Liu's cronies walked outside the hall and guarded the door for their mother and son.
"Mother, the third brother said that my grandfather's family was destroyed!"
"What?" Concubine Liu was shocked that the towel in her hand fell to the ground, and asked urgently, "Is the news true?" Why haven't we heard any wind? Send someone to inquire. ”
Although Liu Zhao is not successful, he is his own father in the end.
Father and daughter are affectionate, Concubine Liu still cares about Nan Anhou.
As soon as she was startled, Concubine Liu's stomach felt a little uncomfortable, and she only felt a little dull pain in her abdomen, she held her stomach and didn't dare to move again.
"Mother, but you don't feel well in your belly? Do you want to pass on Imperial Doctor Hong? Chu Zhaoyu saw Concubine Liu touching her stomach and was also worried.
Concubine Liu relieved her breath and felt better, "Don't, you just entered the palace to say goodbye!" I'll ask Imperial Doctor Hong to come on the back foot, isn't this gossip? ”
"You send someone to inquire about your grandfather's family...... It's not true. Concubine Liu was still concerned about this, remembered something, and asked again, "You say...... Could it be that you sent someone to kill Yan Ning and the Yan family knew about it? They didn't dare to kill you, the prince, so they killed your grandfather's family? By the way, is there any news from Wang Fushun? ”
Chu Zhaoyu heard the word Wang Fushun, could it be that Wang Fushun had fallen into the hands of the Yan family?
From the mouth of this minion, do you know that you arranged the assassination? "Mother, you can raise the fetus with peace of mind first, and I will order someone to investigate. I went out of the palace first. He didn't dare to say more to Concubine Liu.
Concubine Liu's fetus was fine at the beginning, but now that three months have passed, it stands to reason that the fetus should be stable, but it is unstable, "You are in the palace, you should also be careful." ”
"Well, don't worry, the mother still wants you to teach. You go and say goodbye to your father before you leave. Be careful when you are outside, and bring more guards with you. Concubine Liu nodded and instructed.
When Chu Zhaoyu left the palace, it was already late. The weather is fine tonight, the sky is full of stars, the snow that fell a few days ago has melted, and the sun has shone in a few days, and the ground has been dry. The guards lit lanterns and surrounded Chu Zhaoyu in the middle.
The north wind was cold, drilling straight into the neck from the neckline, Chu Zhaoyu secretly regretted that he knew that he would go back so late, and he should go out in a carriage, but now he had to eat the cold wind.
The sound of horses' hooves rattled far away in the night when no one was around.
The Four Princes' Mansion is located on the periphery of the Imperial City, and people are not allowed to wander outside the Imperial City, so after nightfall, there are not many pedestrians here.
He took eight guards with him, thinking about today's events, and galloped all the way.
I finally saw the wall of the Four Princes' Mansion, and after walking along the wall for a while, I arrived at the Mansion.
Chu Zhaoyu exhaled, holding the reins of the horse, and he was a little frozen.
"Your Highness, be careful!" Chu Zhaoyu's chief guard suddenly shouted, and he immediately swung his knife forward and slashed.
There was a "ding" sound, and it was obvious that some dart was shot down.
The remaining seven guards protected Chu Zhaoyu behind him, drawing their swords in their hands and guarding them.
Chu Zhaoyu was sticking to the wall alone, and looking through the light of the lantern, he saw five black-clothed and masked people quietly emerging from a few corners.
The five masked people, only revealing a pair of eyes, led by the black-clothed man raised his hand, lowered his voice and shouted "up". The other four didn't say a word, and each drew his sword and slashed it.
"Who? This is the four princes today, how dare you assassinate? One of Chu Zhaoyu's guards scolded.
"It's the Four Princes who killed!" A masked man replied.
Another guard whistled, apparently asking for help from the other guards in the Prince's Palace.
However, the Four Princes' Mansion occupies a large area, although it is the outer wall of the Prince's Mansion, it is still some way away from the gate of the Prince's Mansion.
There are high walls on both sides, which cannot be climbed, and it is estimated that the guards at the gate of the mansion will not hear the whistle for help.
A few guards could only pray that a patrol guard would pass by the fence and hear the fighting outside and come out to check.
These five men in black have fierce moves, and they are completely deadly. Their knife skills don't seem to have any sectarian moves, but every time they make a knife cleanly, the moves are all tricks that take people's lives, as if they are used to fighting for their lives.
After the guards of the Four Princes' Mansion handed it over, they could only rejoice that although these people were fierce, they looked like martial arts.
In terms of skills, compared to the guards of the Prince's Mansion, it is more than a cut behind.
However, although the martial arts of several guards of the four princes are not bad, they are all orthodox moves, pay attention to one move and one style, and the teacher is famous.
They can't stand the posture of the other party's complete death. Therefore, although the number of people is superior, and the martial arts are also superior, three of them soon fell and were cut off the horse, and I don't know whether they are dead or alive.
The leading captain of the guard observes the enemy's moves while facing the enemy. Looking at it, I was a little surprised, these people seem to be the swordsmanship of soldiers in the army.
This captain of the guard had seen the Praetorian Army drill. I remember the moves he saw at that time, which were like these people, crisp and neat, and a fatal blow.
"Are you a Praetoria?" The chief of the guard asked.
"Boy, you're talking too much." The man in black in the lead didn't reply to his words, "Know too much, die fast!" ”
Although the men in black were arrogant, they were also injured, and the siege posture was obviously much weaker.
"Your Highness, go!" The chief of the guard suddenly shouted. (To be continued.) )
