Chapter 177: Long Time No See

"We'll go into town after dark." Jialan went around the outside of Mucheng and came back and said.

"What's wrong?" I wondered why she just let me hide in the woods outside the wooden city, and now she said that it was dark to enter the city. "What the hell is going on?"

"Naturally, because of the matter of the second son, the prince has increased the scope of strict investigation in the city, if you go in now, it won't take long to be caught by the prince's people, and then tied up in front of the prince to invite merit." Jialan deliberately exaggerated.

"Why are you arresting me?" I can't understand the relationship.

Jialan was asked by me suddenly, so she naturally stopped, but she thought about it disappreciably and explained, "Isn't that because of the relationship between your two sons?" You are very close to him, and you are naturally the enemy of the prince, and they will not arrest you or anyone. ”

Enemy?! Unexpectedly, after ten years of not entering this wooden city, Yuan Jue and Yuan He have become enemies. "Is Yuan He really guarding against Yuan Jue like this?"

"Now the whole Yu country, no, even the whole world, who doesn't know that the prince joined forces with Lord Meng to delay reinforcements and frame the second son." Jialan said it as a matter of course, as if I was ignorant, "You say, if the second prince returns to the palace at this time, what will be the fate?" ”

"What's going on?" I asked.

"If the emperor of Yu Kingdom wakes up, the second prince rushes back and tells the emperor everything like this, and the emperor checks again, it should be the case. The persecution of the second son by the prince is indisputable. Do you think that the prince will let the second prince return to the palace at this time? Jialan asked me rhetorically, rolling her little eyes contemptuously.

Actually, I understood this qiΔ“, but I underestimated the contradiction between Yuanhe and Yuanjue, and I didn't expect that the two brothers would end up making a quarrel even more ruthlessly than before I entered this dream. "Since you know that Wonhyuk is such a person, why do you want to help him?"

After hearing this, the smile on Jialan's face froze slightly, and after a while, she heard her sigh, "Don't you say it too, he is such a person." ”

I didn't understand what she meant for a moment.

Jialan continued, "It is precisely because he is such a person that he can do whatever it takes, regardless of blood and kinship, just to seek the throne. What's wrong with me following him and helping him do things, without replacing anyone or becoming? ”

I don't know what to say, but it was what I said ten years ago that made her what she was.

Perhaps, only around such a person, no one will mind Jialan's identity, Jialan's ability has become her advantage, allowing her to obtain her identity in the world, but this, she still can't escape the fate of being used.

I stopped talking and sat down on the ground, waiting for it to get dark.

I don't know how long it took, but it was already dark. Jialan leaned out to observe the situation at the city gate, and she suddenly reached out and motioned to me, "Hey, come on." They were going to change shifts, and we turned over there when they weren't paying attention. How, you can, right? ”

"No problem." I glanced at where she was pointing, confident.

In a few moments, sure enough, the soldiers guarding the city gate began to prepare for a change of shift, and we took advantage of the chaos to slip under the city wall and plunge into the city. The moment I landed, I was in a trance, this place is still very similar to ten years ago, but I know in my heart that many things have already changed.

"How do we get into the palace?" I asked her.

There are patrolling guards everywhere in the city, with the identities of me and Jialan, such abilities need to be careful and careful, it is enough to see how careful Yuan He should be to prevent Yuan Jue from breaking into the city, so the guards in the palace naturally needless to say,

Jialan smiled charmingly, reached behind her and took out a cloak, and handed it to me. "Since I took you into the city, I naturally have a way to take you into the palace, otherwise Yun Chu would not have asked me about this."

"This is ......" I took the cloak, and I understood as she signaled, and put it on my body. Since you can take me into the palace generously, why did you climb over the wall when you entered the city just now? ”

Jialan turned the hat on my head, and the huge hat immediately covered my entire face, and my vision was only a step or two away from me. "The person guarding the city gate is Lord Meng's person, and I am at odds with him, so naturally I don't want to cause trouble."

Master Meng, Jialan is at odds with Mrs. Yuanhyuk's father? It's a really complicated relationship.

Just as I was thinking, Jialan reached out out of nowhere to summon a carriage, and she helped me by the elbow and let me get into the carriage and sit in the carriage. Then Jialan also sat in, and heard the coachman whip lightly, and the carriage began to move in a moment.

"You're willing to help Yun Chu run this trip, but you've got a lot of benefits from her." I understand what kind of person Jialan is, and I definitely won't believe that she is just to repay Yun Chu's kindness, after all, back then, Yun Chu gave her cultivation, and she also did a lot of things for Yun Chu. Now that she has followed Yuan He to do things, Yun Chu has been imprisoned, if she still wants her to help, I am afraid that she will have to pay something, and the reward must be not small, otherwise how can she impress Jialan.

"Hmph." Jialan snorted, confirming my suspicions.

The carriage had been walking for a long time, and several times it had stopped, but as long as Jialan leaned out, no one continued to be embarrassed. Until the carriage stopped for the last time, Jialan got out of the carriage first and explained to me, "You wait in the car, I'll go and take care of it." You come down again when I tell you to come down. ”

It took a while for Jialan to return, and I was about to lift my hat, but she pulled it back on and helped me out of the carriage. She warned me, "Don't take your hat off and don't let people see your face." ”

Her successive flaws made me more and more suspicious, but now in order to see Yun Chu, I have to do what Jialan said.

She was beside me and reminded me to be careful, to keep my head down, to turn sideways, and even to raise my legs.

I could hear the sound of an iron door shutting heavily. It wasn't until she helped me stand still that I looked up a little and saw the thick iron fence in front of me. I listened to the left and right for a while, but when I didn't see any other movement, I reached out and moved my hat up for half a minute.

Sure enough, I saw Yun Chu in the iron prison, she looked very bad, her face was a little pale, and her cheeks were sunken. I clinged to the iron prison with both hands and couldn't wait to call her, "Yun Chu, Yun Chu!" ”

She must have heard my voice, and then she leaned over and looked up from the iron prison.

"Yun Chu." I called her again, as if the sound had woken her up, and she fell to her stomach and clung to the iron fence. I crouched down and looked at her now, "What the hell is going on?" ”

"You're finally here." She called out to me in a hoarse voice, and then glared fiercely at Jialan, who was still standing on the sidelines and doing nothing.

Jialan spun around and stepped aside.

"Yun Chu, what happened? Could it really be Won Hyuk he ...... "I crouched down and tried to get closer to her.

Yun Chu fumbled and grabbed my hand, and she asked tremblingly, "What about Jue'er?" How's Jue'er...... Jue'er he ......"

"Don't worry." I reassured her, "Yuan Jue is fine, although there was damage in the first battle of Hancheng, they escaped." Now that he's found someone to form an alliance with, and he's about to fight back, he's fine, he's going to be fine. ”

"That's good. That's good. Yun Chu's heart finally fell to the ground.

"Are you in a hurry to find me, just to know what happened to Yuan Jue?" I see that she is now in a big prison, and I really don't know what to do if Yuan Jue knows about this qiΔ“. I know how much Yun Chu cares about Yuan Jue, Xu is the last news she got was that Yuan Jue was defeated in Hancheng, she didn't believe anyone's news, but she kept waiting for me. "Yun Chu, you tell me what kind of situation was the matter with Mrs. Ruyi back then."

As long as the mystery of Mrs. Ruyi's death is solved, maybe Wonhyuk won't be embarrassed by Yun Chu.

But when Yun Chu heard me ask about Mrs. Ruyi, she actually stopped, and then slowly let go of the hand that was holding me, and she deliberately moved back, as if she wanted to avoid me deliberately.

I could see that she had a weak heart, and I was even more sure that she had something to do with Mrs. Ruyi's affair. "Yun Chu, you sue me, I have to save you. You don't want Yuan Jue to come back and see that you have ...... What would he have done if he knew. ”

"Don't." Yun Chu shook his head frantically, "Don't sue him, don't!" Never sue him. ”

"Yun Chu ......" I still want to persuade her something, but as soon as Yuan Jue's matter was opened, I swallowed it back again, no, I can't say it, Jialan is next to her, she definitely doesn't know Yuan Jue's life experience, if she knows about it, I don't dare to guarantee that she will not sue SΓΉ Yuanhe, nor can I guarantee that she will not continue to use this matter to continue to blackmail Yun Chu, the words were swallowed back when they reached my mouth, I was anxious and angry, "Yun Chu, how can I help you." ”

Yun Chu trembled, "Don't help me." Then he said, "Save Madame, save Jue'er...... Don't embarrass Madame, don't ...... Don't let her hurt Jue'er......"

Don't let her hurt Jue'er?! Sure enough, Mrs. Qimo wanted to hurt Yuan Jue. Yun Chu was dedicated to protecting Yuan Jue, but why did she ask me to save my wife and not embarrass my wife?

The relationship between Yun Chu and Mrs. Qi Mo is really difficult to figure out.

"Yun Chu...... "I was about to say something, but suddenly I heard the sound of the big iron door outside the prison clattering open.

What's the situation, who's coming?!

I hurriedly looked at Jialan, who immediately understood what I meant, and turned around and walked out to see what was going on. I stood up and pulled my hat down.

After that, footsteps were heard...... The sound of more than one person's footsteps. I lowered my head and saw several pairs of feet suddenly appear in front of me, I wasn't sure how many people there were, but I knew that these people were definitely not arranged by Jialan.

"Who the hell are you?" I heard someone in front of me asking, the voice was low and rough, and at the moment he spoke, my peripheral vision noticed Yun Chu, who was still in my line of sight, curled up and hid to the side, and immediately understood the identity of these people in front of me.

I waited for a while, but I couldn't hear Jialan's voice anymore, and I felt that the situation was getting more and more deadlocked, so I swallowed my saliva and asked softly, "Where is Jialan?" ”

"You are?" I could hear the man's voice suspiciously, and he seemed to have relented to me a little.

I didn't know why, but I also knew that I might not be able to break through, and after hesitating for a moment, I pulled the hat off my head behind me.

"You ......"

I noticed that several people in front of me suddenly stared at me with wide eyes. They seemed to be stunned, and they remained like this for a while, until the leader actually pushed the person next to him, and the man reacted and stumbled out.

I thought to myself, it's bad, maybe as Jialan warned me, they will tie me up and send me to Wonhyuk.

The atmosphere has been stalemate since the man stumbled away, no one spoke, no one moved, I wanted to ask them, where did Jialan go, but at the moment, depending on the situation, I probably guessed it, just when Jialan went out to investigate the source of the sound, she found the guards who broke in, and then she left me and slipped away alone.

As I was thinking this, the man who had stumbled out had returned, whispering a few words in the ear of the man in front of me. Then, as if he understood something, the man came back to his senses and said to me, "Girl, His Royal Highness wants to see you. ”

As expected, he had just gone to report to Won Hyuk, and since he had come, I had also intended to meet Won Hyuk and ask what had happened, and since they had already alarmed him, he already knew that I was coming. Then let's go see him now.

It's not the first time I've been to this palace, but every time I habitually go to Yun Chu, Mrs. Qimo, and Yuan Jue...... It was the first time for me to step into this palace to meet Won Hyuk, after all, he used to live alone in the mansion.

The road to Wonhyuk was a little long, but fortunately, it was there before I was about to lose my patience.

The guards led me out of the temple, and stood on either side, bowing down and waiting for me to enter.

Although he was puzzled, he still sighed, and then thought about walking in the palace, I estimated that this place should not be far from the king's dormitory. Walking into the hall, I was suddenly frightened by the magnificent scene in front of me, and my eyes circled around the hall before finally falling on him.

Won Hyuk stood there, watching me come in, watching me turn around and look around, but never spoke first until I saw him. His appearance hadn't changed much, just like the adult he had seen outside of Mucheng, except that he was dressed a little differently now, and he looked more and more extravagant.

"Long time no see." I greeted him.

Unexpectedly, Won Hyuk looked at me, his mouth seemed to be trembling, and he tried several times before he said, "It's been a long time...... Long time, no see. ”

I practiced in seclusion in Shaoshan for ten years, and after ten years of coming down the mountain, everyone told me that Yuan He had changed. He not only won over a goblin like Jialan, who was recognized by the world as an "alien", brutalized Zhongliang and killed dissidents, but he also killed his hands and feet, and teamed up with his father-in-law to kill Yuan Jue and his party, and even persecuted his siblings' biological mother.

All the people said that he had changed.

But at this moment, when I saw him, it was as if I was still looking at the boy standing by the swing. (To be continued.) )
