Chapter Eighty-Four: Something Happened
A black shadow flew along the branches and rooftops all the way to the backyard woods, so fast that people thought it was a hallucination. It wasn't until he crossed the two-man wooden door in the backyard that the shadow leaped down from the branches, slowing down its travel.
On the snow-covered road, there was only a shallow mark. The snow fell, but for a moment, the ground was only snow-white, and there was no trace of anyone stepping on it.
Granny Yu's light work has reached the point of reaching the peak, walking silently and landing without traces. And because of her years of cultivation, her body is also very light.
Therefore, although she did not lift her strength at this moment, there was only a very shallow footprint when her feet fell to the ground.
The galloping footsteps came to a halt in a place surrounded by greenery.
Grave?
Granny Jade flew to the grave, the grave was covered with snow, and the handwriting on the stone-carved tombstone was not legible. With her left hand, she gently brushed away the snow that had fallen on the stele.
The words on it appeared: The tomb of Luo Quan's beloved wife.
Granny Jade took off the black veil she wore on her head, revealing a melon seed face. There was a hint of nostalgia in his indifferent eyes.
Granny Jade stopped in front of the grave for a moment, sighed slightly, and put the black veil on her head again.
Then he lifted the internal force and flew to Jingshan.
――
Chu Yueqing angrily got into the carriage back to Hao's mansion, and Xiaomei and Mo Lian sat in the carriage to serve.
Holding a hand warmer in his hand, he was very angry in his heart. I'll see you when I say yes!
"Oops," Molian exclaimed, touching the back of her head against the wall of the car. The sudden jolt of the carriage caused the three of them to stagger in the carriage.
"Could it be that the snow is too big and the snow on the road is too thick?" Chu Yueqing was puzzled, and sent Xiaomei to ask the coachman.
Xiaomei walked to the front of the carriage, lifted the corner of the thick curtain, and asked, "Little brother, what happened just now?" ”
The little guy driving didn't look back, and said in a low voice, "It's okay." ”
It was still snowing outside, and Xiaomei's fingers were red from the cold after a while when he lifted the curtain of the car. She saw that the little guy driving seemed to be in a bad mood, so she didn't ask more.
Putting down the curtain, the carriage bumped again when Xiaomei walked back, and she almost fell unsteadily, but fortunately, Mo Lian was quick and reached out to help her.
"How, what did the coachman say?" Jasmine asked.
Xiaomei shook her head, "It's so cold outside, and it's snowing so much, the little brother who drives it doesn't seem to have time to pay attention to me." He just said nothing. Princess, the slave maid thought that it might indeed be too much snow, and this snow had fallen for a day. ”
"It's better not to hit a stone," Chu Yueqing leaned close to the back wall of the carriage, holding the hand warmer in one hand and the edge of the carriage in the other. didn't have the heart to think about why Granny Yu left, she then said, "You two come here, safety is important, it's not good to fall." ”
The two of them said yes. sat next to Chu Yueqing one left and one right.
As soon as the two of them sat down, the speed of the carriage suddenly accelerated, and the bumps became more violent.
With the impact of 'boom', 'ah', and 'oh', the more Chu Yueqing thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. The distance between Lehou Mansion and Haowang Mansion is not far, and the carriage has been traveling for about a quarter of an hour now.
I must have arrived at Xuanwu Street. Even though there are very few people on Xuetian Street, Xuanwu Street is a busy city after all, and there are many small restaurants on both sides, and they will not stop doing business because of the snow.
They must have swept away the snow in front of the door, why was the carriage so bumpy? Moreover, the carriage is moving so fast, is it that the streets are empty!?
Chu Yueqing was frightened, lowered his voice and said, "You two sit on both sides." ”
His hand grabbed the two of them tightly, Chu Yueqing helped the two of them down, and whispered in the ears of the two of them, "There is something abnormal in this carriage, don't talk to the two of you, listen to my instructions later." ”
Then he let go of the hands that were gripping the two. Hearing this, Xiaomei looked at Chu Yueqing with a nervous expression, and then thought about the indifferent words of the little brother who drove just now, a burst of sweat came out of her cheeks, and she carefully moved to the position designated by Chu Yueqing and sat down.
After hearing this, Mo Lian was full of questions, but the master gave her an order not to speak, so she could only sit on the left side of the carriage with a stomach full of questions.
After the two of them sat in the designated position, Chu Yueqing pointed to the window of the carriage and made a tearing motion.
To keep warm, the windows of the carriage were lined with thick wool felt.
Xiaomei and Molian did so.
The wool felt of the carriage window is mainly for windproofing, the texture is not good, and the density is not enough. As long as the force is strong enough, there is no problem in tearing it.
But they couldn't make a big noise, and if the coachman heard it, he might tie their hands and feet so that they couldn't move, and then they would really have to sit still.
Chu Yueqing patted the shoulders of the two, and then pointed to the hairpin on his head, signaling them to use the hairpin to pierce it.
The two obediently took off the hairpin on their heads and stabbed hard at the wool felt.
The wind and snow outside were loud, and the hairpin only poked out a hole the size of a finger, and the cold wind hissed through the small hole.
Molian and Xiaomei looked out of the car from the small hole.
The carriage was galloping, and there was no one around, only snow and dead branches in the forest.
Mo Lianyue's small eyebrows retracted her gaze and looked at each other.
This is not the way back to the palace.
Chu Yueqing saw their expressions and knew that his guess was right.
Depend on! Which one is this singing?!
"Wang..."Mo Lian wanted to ask what was going on, but she was silent again when she thought of the princess's order.
After Chu Yueqing finished scolding in his heart, he thought about how to escape.
Originally, when she came out of King Hao's mansion, she was accompanied by a few small servants in the mansion, but she was too anxious when she got into the carriage and didn't pay attention to it.
Now there are only three people in the carriage: she, Xiaomei, and Molian...
Chu Yueqing was running his brain cells at high speed, and finally couldn't help but curse again: Damn!
She couldn't think of any witty way at all, so she could only force it.
Chu Yueqing stared at the stove in his hand, and said in his heart: It's up to you.
She beckoned the two of them to her side, and the three of them gathered around to help them down.
She whispered, "Which of you has the most strength?" ”
――
At the same time, the gate of Lehou Mansion.
After the guests dispersed, Lehua and Lehou went to the gate to see off the king.
Zhao Yu followed King Cheng's side, and the intimate appearance of the two made the jealousy in Lehua's heart burn.
"Brother-in-law, let's go to the carriage, the snow is so heavy, Yu'er is standing cold~" Zhao Yujiao said.
When King Cheng heard this, he looked at her dotingly, "Who told you to wait here, if you are afraid of the cold, go back to the carriage first." ”
"No, Yu'er wants to be with her brother-in-law."
"In this case, it's not good for the girl of the Zhao family to suffer from the cold, His Royal Highness King Cheng should send the girl of the Zhao family home quickly." Le Hou said, his tone was lukewarm.
King Cheng bowed his head and said, "Uncle Yue, my son-in-law will come to visit him again in the future." ”
After saying that, he led Zhao Yu to the carriage. I thought to myself, I can't spoil Yu'er like this in the future, now that she is getting older and older, it is not good for her reputation to speak so carelessly.
As soon as Zhao Yu stepped into the carriage, he saw a guard wearing an escort walking to King Cheng's side.
"Your Highness, Mingyuan has been attacked." (To be continued)
