Chapter 302: Collapse

Fu Ying's words asked Xiao Cuo's face was suffocated, and his eyes became darker, as if they were spinning into a whirlpool in his eyes.

Fu Ying looked at Xiao Cuo, and regretted that he was so fast-mouthed, he didn't want to talk to him about these things to increase his worries, but these things were so laid out on the surface, and he didn't have to think about it.

Xiao Cuo's index finger gently scraped the bridge of Fu Ying's nose, and then tapped her lips: "Did you have a suspicion?" ”

"I don't doubt it, the emperor is your brother, and I don't want to doubt him. It's just that when something happens, I must think from your point of view. The emperor's affairs came suddenly, but Sima Xin's side was so well prepared, the emperor really didn't miss anything, it was too powerful. ”

Fu Ying didn't want to say anything like "plan" and "conspiracy", Xiao Cuo was a smart person, and he could not think about it clearly?

Moreover, what you have realized is more certain than what others say.

"Let's eat first, I'll go to the morning court later." Xiao Cuo smiled and served Fu Ying vegetables.

"Early Dynasty?"

"The emperor's affairs need to be explained clearly in front of hundreds of civil and military officials, and the unclear will inevitably arouse suspicion, and if there is more suspicion, there will be more rumors in private, and if there are too many rumors, it will be difficult for the court to be stable."

Xiao Cuo ate a big meal, ate half a bowl of japonica rice, and found that Fu Ying was still counting rice grains, so he sandwiched her favorite dish for her: "Don't think nonsense, you can do the things outside." You just have to wait for me to come back. ”

"I see."

The two of them finished breakfast, and Xiao Cuo tidied up. So he changed into his court clothes and went straight outside.

Fu Ying's female stream lived in the wing room of the back and side hall of the Yangxin Palace where Xiao Cuo originally lived, so he naturally didn't dare to move around at will as if he was in the palace. She could only arrange for Luzhu to go out and inquire about the movement on the side. With a boring flipbook on your own.

At this time, Fu Ying missed the treasure jade and sugar ball she left in the summer resort. If you bring them back, it will be more boring at this time.

So when lunch was set up at noon, Xiao Cuo hadn't come back yet, and Luzhu only said that the ministers of the previous dynasty had not dispersed, and Fu Ying only ate two bites of wax chewing.

By the time of the lunch break, Xiao Cuo had not yet returned. Fu Ying was a little anxious, and wanted Luzhu to explore, but Ah Yuan came back first.

"Princess." Ah Yuan first saluted respectfully.

"Hurry up. But what does the prince command? ”

A smile was piled up on Ah Yuan's round face. He said in a low voice: "The prince was afraid that the princess would be worried, so he specially ordered the slave and maid to come back and say something, just now the prince and the second prince broke up the court meeting, saying that there was an urgent matter outside." And he hurried out. and ordered the slave and maid to tell the princess not to worry. He said he would come back in the evening and have dinner together. ”

Fu Ying twisted his eyebrows and lowered his long eyelashes, and was speechless for a moment.

Seeing that Fu Ying was like this, Ah Yuan originally had some luck and raised it.

He knew what was going on out there. But the prince ordered not to reveal it to the princess, and she was in a hurry, so he didn't dare to say a word when he was killed. Isn't that a dilemma?

Ah Yuan smiled with him: "Don't worry, the princess has excellent martial arts and unparalleled resourcefulness, and there are personal guards and imperial guards around him, this is in Kyoto City, there will be no danger, the princess can relax." ”

Fu Ying originally planned to ask in detail, but seeing that Ah Yuan was so embarrassed, she couldn't speak.

Anyway, Xiao will come back at dinner time, just ask him when the time comes.

"I see. There you go. ”

Yuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief and saluted: "Thank you for the princess's compassion, the slave and maid have retired." ”

His "compassionate" said Fu Yingwaner: "No wonder the prince values you." She just didn't ask. Such a little thing Ah Yuan actually regarded as a kind of favor, so gracious, it was hard not to like it.

Fu Ying asked Ah Yuan to step back, and then flipped through the book at will to kill time, and Xiao Cuo did not come back at dinner, seeing that the sky was gradually darkening, and it was about to be time for the palace gate to drop the key, only to hear the voice of the palace people saluting outside: "Lord." ”

Green bamboo hurried to the door to greet him.

Xiao mistakenly entered the door, casually threw the cloak to Lu Zhu, and washed his hands and wiped his face first.

Fu Ying came to his side and followed him to hand the handkerchief.

It wasn't until Xiao Cuo wiped his face that Fu Ying asked, "Why did you come back so late?" ”

"After the court meeting, I went out of the palace. It's okay, let's eat first. ”

Fu Ying nodded and ordered the palace people to set up the meal.

The two of them had limited time to meet throughout the day, and after breakfast, they were now using dinner, and Xiao Cuo was the same as in the morning, as if nothing had happened, and the food was still the same sweet.

The more this is the case, the more Fu Yingcai feels that his heart is hanging, and he always feels like the calm before the storm, as if something big is about to happen.

After the meal, the palace people served tea, Fu Ying couldn't hold back anymore, and asked, "What are you doing out of the palace today?" ”

Xiao Cuo used the lid of the bowl to fiddle with the tea leaves floating on the bowl of Fulu Shouxi, and said after a while: "That's it, if I don't explain, you probably will hear about it, in fact, after today's court meeting, there is news from outside, saying that the Red Maple Mountain fifty miles south of the capital has collapsed, so I and the second prince hurriedly rushed to the scene." ”

"Red Maple Mountain Collapses?" Fu Ying said in astonishment: "How can a good one collapse?" I haven't seen anything moving on the ground. ”

"That's why I think it's evil." Xiao Cuo twisted his eyebrows and said: "I took someone with the second prince, but because of the dust caused by the collapse, and I was afraid that there would be a continued collapse, I didn't get close, and I only waited for it to stabilize before we could continue to investigate." It's just that I think it's strange that a good mountain can collapse for no reason, and even the people in Qin Tianjian say that this is a bad omen. ”

Fu Ying pursed her lips and was silent. What bad omen? She was skeptical.

"Could it be that someone used gunpowder to cause this situation?"

"Gunpowder? Gunpowder, you say? Xiao Cuo shook his head: "Where does this thing have such great power, it's not like I haven't seen the firearm of the Shenji Battalion, the range is very short, the power is very small, how much do you have to put to blow up a mountain, it's unlikely." ”

No way? But why did she remember something like that that could destroy a city when it exploded? Could it be that her memory is confused again?

Xiao Cuo saw Fu Ying like this, where was she willing to bother with these things? He smiled and said, "Don't worry, even if there is any bad omen, I will protect you, and I will not be able to give you delicious food." ”

Fu Ying glared at him angrily: "Could it be that people only eat?" I'm worried about being serious, you're not serious. ”

Xiao Cuo pulled Fu Ying over and sat on his lap, and said with a smile: "This is angry? I haven't ...... yet."

"Lord Wang." Ah Yuan's voice suddenly came from outside, "Prime Minister Sima asks to see you." ”

Xiao Cuo was stunned for a moment, and said with his eyebrows: "Why is he here." ”

"Back to the prince, Prime Minister Sima was carried here."

Carried along? Fu Ying was a little confused. (To be continued......)
