Jin Meng didn't dare to say anything at this time, but only dared to nod his head again and again following Leng Xinyun's words. But in Jin Meng's heart, at this time, he already felt that Leng Xinyun had changed, although he didn't know where it had changed, but since Concubine Xian Niangniang came and the little boy was gone, Leng Xinyun gradually changed, becoming more and more different, different made Jin Meng, who had been with Leng Xinyun for a long time, feel that she was very strange.

It's just that this strangeness has not been noticed by anyone other than Jinmeng, let alone Xu Youshan, who has been busy preparing birthday gifts for Pei's family these days, how can she still be in the mood to pay attention to other people? And after the silent passage of time, the day of Pei's birthday has finally arrived.

Pei's birthday, in the end there is still no big deal, although Mrs. Qi was very unhappy with Pei's decision, but Pei is not a person who likes to be lively, so this time it is even more borrowed from the current situation is complicated, Zhou Huidi's unpredictable reason, proposed that it is best not to be too ostentatious, so as not to make Zhou Huidi worry about the best excuse, and finally only invited the daughters of the Xu family's big house and the second room to get together, and have a family banquet-like birthday banquet, which is over.

However, it also entrusted Pei's decision to let Xu Youshan quietly go to Dongyang Lane for a banquet today, so early in the morning, after sending Xie Jing out of the door, Xu Youshan got into the carriage, but took five or six people, trotted out of the house from the back door, and went straight to Dongyang Lane.

But today, Xu Youshan's whereabouts should not be swaggering, so when they went to Dongyang Lane, Xu Youshan and his party specially chose a small road to walk. Although it is not inhabited, it has only met a few people in twos and threes for a long time, but this makes Xu Youshan feel at ease. She's still in a sensitive period. If it weren't for Xie Jing's consent, she wouldn't have dared to leave the house today.

Therefore, such an inaccessible path can make Xu Youshan feel at ease, and she also lifted the curtain inside in the carriage, and looked at the outside scene curiously through the outermost curtain.

Although he has lived in the imperial capital for several years, the imperial capital is too big. Now Xu Youshan also doesn't dare to pack tickets, saying that she knows this land completely, so don't say it. Just the scenery of these paths she passed in front of her, she saw it for the first time today, which made Xu Youshan really amazing. And these huts and brick roads hidden behind the majestic buildings are really different from the bustling scene ahead. revealed. Rather, it's a different kind of tranquility.

Beside the small roads that can only be passed by an ordinary horse-drawn carriage, there are houses of high and low staggered, although they are not exquisite, but they are better than neatness, especially the flowers and trees along the way, which add a touch of tranquility to these paths, which is very pleasant.

Xu Youshan looked out of the car with some magic and concentration, she definitely didn't expect to see the scenery in the majestic and prosperous divine capital. She couldn't take her eyes off her at all. But it was at this time that things suddenly happened. The carriage, which had always been very stable, suddenly hit with a huge bump at this moment, which shook Xu Youshan like a car wall on the side.

This sudden change caught Xu Youshan off guard, and when she came back to her senses dizzily, the bone-eating pain came from the entire left arm and shoulder blade, and Xu Youshan burst into tears in an instant.

Mother, it hurts me to death!

Xu Youshan's eyes were blurred by the pain, but this was just a blink or two of effort, and the next terrifying neighing of the horse and the anxious and panicked cheer of the groom immediately resounded in Xu Youshan's ears, but the anxious voice of the groom did not make Xu Youshan feel anything, what really made Xu Youshan's face pale was the abnormal neighing sound of the horses outside.

Because this neighing sound Xu Youshan is so familiar, even if a short time has passed, Xu Youshan is still very familiar, this is similar to the neighing sound before her horse was attacked with a dark arrow in Xunshan Mountain, in Maple Leaf Valley, and then ran maniacically? Xu Youshan's face was no longer bloody at this time, and she didn't care about the pain in her left hand, but immediately wanted to jump out of the carriage.

But just when Xu Youshan stumbled to stand up, the sight she saw in the corner of her eye made her heart beat almost stop, right next to Xu Youshan, Chu Dai, who came out with her today, was also shocked and hit the wall of the car in the bump just now, and the bad thing is that Chu Dai was knocked unconscious. But the current situation is not the time to faint, Xu Youshan was about to jump out of the carriage and his footsteps were sluggish, but it was also in this stagnation that the carriage suddenly ran forward in a more terrifying hiss than just now.

And this time Xu Youshan learned to be obedient, when the abnormal hissing sound was remembered, Xu Youshan hurriedly sat next to Chu Dai, grabbed the small table nailed to the carriage next to her with one hand, and shouted hoarsely in Chu Dai's ear: "Chu Dai, wake up." ”

Maybe Xu Youshan's voice was too hoarse, maybe the carriage was too bumpy, which actually made Chu Dai really wake up, and Chu Dai, who woke up in the extremely bumpy carriage and the noisy sound outside, was startled by the piercing and sharp familiar sound in her ears before she could come back to her senses, and the movements in her hands were completely according to the instructions of the voice, and she immediately grabbed the small table next to her.

"Chu Dai, listen, now our horses can't be injured by someone, and now they are injured and crazy, after a while, you follow my instructions, and we will jump out together." After Chu Dai finally grasped the table next to her, as soon as she turned her head, she saw Xu Youshan with a solemn expression and a little distorted, and she didn't give Chu Dai a chance to ask questions at all, Xu Youshan said to her with great effort.

"Okay." And maybe it was because she was by Xu Youshan's side and experienced a lot of strange things, although Chu Dai was still flustered now, but after Xu Youshan's words, she actually nodded, and looked at Xu Youshan tightly, waiting for her to give an order.

Just looking at Chu Dai who was so quick and calm, Xu Youshan was stunned for a moment, and immediately nodded to Chu Dai, then turned her head to look at the window that had just been pulled up by her, desperately looking for a possibility of escaping. But what made Xu Youshan's face more and more ugly was. The speed of the horses did not slow down at all, and the voices of the mothers and guards outside gradually drifted away, and all that was left was the shrill screams of the horsemen in the car. That's the worst possible outcome.

"Ha ......" At this moment, Xu Youshan actually smiled, looking at her in fright, Chu Dai, who was about to receive the order, was jumped, and just when Chu Dai was about to say something, Xu Youshan suddenly spoke: "Chu Dai, we may not have a chance." ”

Chu Dai was stunned. Then the tears remained, but at this moment, she caught a glimpse of something out of the corner of her eye. In an instant, his spirit was shocked, and he grabbed the table harder in his hand, and said loudly to Xu Youshan: "Princess, princess, look." It's the prince of the world. ”

The prince of the world? In the huge bumps of the carriage. Xu Youshan was stunned, but then she also saw the familiar purple-clothed figure outside the window where the gauze curtain flew—Qi Xuan!

The huge sense of joy of survival instantly filled Xu Youshan's chest, and she also grabbed the table in front of her with her right hand at this time, as long as she held on for a while, just a while!

Xu Youshan and Chu Dai exerted their strength to stabilize, steadying themselves in the carriage, and just a moment later, when both of them were about to lose their support. A terrible roar of the horses outside the car rang out, followed by a shaking that was insignificant compared to the bump just now. Xu Youshan and Chu Dai's entire world stopped.

"Wang ...... Princess, are you alright? Chu Dai stammered, and her fearful voice first sounded in the carriage.

"It's okay, what about you?" Compared with Chu Dai, although Xu Youshan's voice was still a little trembling, she was really too calm. Xu Youshan slightly supported her left hand, which was becoming more and more painful, with her right hand, and turned her head to Chu Dai and asked.

"I—I'm fine...... Wow!!! A cry that resounded on this rare road broke out in an instant, and whether it was Xu Youshan in the carriage, or Qi Xuan who stood beside the dead horse with cold eyes outside the carriage, or Wu Lin and the guards who chased after him immediately, they were all frightened and stood on the spot in this earth-shattering cry.

"Hiss" bursts of gasping sound continued to sound in the early autumn hall, and Xu Yourong and Xu Mingcheng next to him had white faces, and the roots of their teeth were also sour. And looking at Xu Youshan's tears that kept shedding although there was no voice, Xu Yourong and Xu Mingcheng not only had sore teeth, but their hearts hurt even more. But now the two of them stood quietly aside, not daring to say anything, for fear of distracting Qi Yuan, who was bandaging Xu Youshan's wounds.

"Okay, okay, Sister Shan is really a good boy, she is so brave." And after Qi Yuan bandaged and fixed Xu Youshan's injured and contusion's left hand, Qi Yuan exhaled lightly and said to her: "Fortunately, the contusion of this injury is not very serious, as long as you have a good rest." Remember, especially in the first month, it's important to be careful to recuperate, you know? ”

"Well, I know, Seventh Uncle Ancestor." Xu Youshan nodded with red eyes.

And after Qi Yuan patted Xu Youshan's head lightly, got up and signaled that Xu Yourong and Xu Mingcheng could come over, Xu Yourong and the two immediately ran to Xu Youshan's side, and circled around Xu Youshan in distress, but at this time, Qi Yuan was accompanied by Pei's family, and the two walked towards Qinhuatang with a sinking face.

Today is Pei's birthday, but the recent court is also an eventful time, Xu Luo, Xu Rong and Xu Xi all happened to be called into the palace by Emperor Zhou Hui, so at this time, only Mrs. Qi and Mrs. Zheng were in the Xu Mansion, and Qi Xuan came with Xu Mingcheng today. As for Qi Yuan, it was because Mrs. Qi was uncomfortable these days, so she asked Qi Yuan to come over, and because of this, she was just able to treat Xu Youshan's injury, otherwise Xu Youshan would have to hurt for a long time I don't know.

Akado

As soon as Pei and Qi Yuan arrived, they saw that the Qinhua Hall was already full of people, and the top ones were of course Old Lady Qi and Old Lady Zheng, as soon as they saw Qi Yuan and Pei Clan's arrival, they asked first: "How is Sister Shan?" ”

"The injury is not a big deal, and the contusion on the left hand is not very serious, as long as you have a good rest and recuperation for a period of time, it can be healed." Qi Yuan replied.

"That's good." Old Madam Qi nodded reassuringly, but then her face sank again, and she asked Qi Xuan: "Xuan'er, this incident, is it an accident, or is it ......" The latter words Old Madam Qi did not finish, but Qi Xuan already knew, after a little silence, he got up and replied to Old Madam Qi: "Aunt Grandmother, just now I have sent someone to check the body of Ma'er, and the wound has not been found on the body yet, and it is not easy to determine whether it is an accident or not, but I think it is more likely to be a secret attack." ”

Qi Xuan said directly without reservation, which made everyone else present look a little worse, especially Pei's. Today, Xu Youshan originally came to attend Pei's birthday banquet, but she suffered this unwarranted disaster on the road, so how could Pei's mood be good.

"Did you send someone to the Chu Palace?" After everyone was silent for a while, Old Madam Zheng suddenly asked. And Mrs. Zheng's sudden question also made everyone else stunned and didn't react. Seeing this, Mrs. Zheng was not annoyed, but just asked again, and then Pei Shi reacted, and hurriedly replied: "No, I originally wanted to send someone to the Chu Palace, but then I was stopped by Sister Shan, saying that this little injury does not need to alarm His Royal Highness the King of Chu." ”

"Nonsense." After Pei finished speaking, Old Madam Zheng didn't say anything, Old Madam Qi had already said heavily, the "accident" just now was not a trivial matter no matter where you looked at it, and now was the time to deal with it quickly, so when Old Madam Qi heard Xu Youshan say that this was a trivial matter, and she didn't let Pei send someone back to inform Xie Jing, her face was ugly.

"Is this a trifle? If it weren't for Xuan'er who happened to come from Tai Academy just now, I was afraid that I didn't have enough time and picked up the path to come, then Sister Shan would not be as simple as breaking a left hand, their children are not sensible, Yu Ning, how can you be confused. Old Madam Qi said to Pei Shi with a bad face.

In the face of Old Madam Qi's disapproval, Pei Shi didn't speak immediately, but paused for a while before saying: "It's not that I don't know the seriousness of this matter, but Sister Shan told me that the current situation of His Royal Highness the King of Chu is the real ambush on all sides, and her injury this time today does not seem to be caused by His Royal Highness the Third Prince, so there is no need to go out of his way to tell His Royal Highness the King of Chu." ”

The hostile relationship between Concubine Xian and the third prince Xie Wen and Xie Jing is indeed very obvious, and there is no need for the two parties to hide it anymore. (To be continued.) )
