Chapter 376: Who's Coming?
Speaking of Prince Chun of Xishu, Han Jiangxue really didn't have much impression, this person was the younger brother of the Emperor of Xishu, and he was also one of the most important princes of the former emperor of Xishu.
Although Prince Chun also attended a banquet in the palace of Emperor Xishu to entertain her that time, but because of the appearance of Marquis Jiang Ning that day, of course, he lost a lot of attention to other people. I vaguely remember that I was almost forty years old, my face was average, and I still had a little bit of kindness, but I didn't pay attention to the others.
Later, she found out that this Prince Chun was not a peaceful person.
In fact, when Luo Qi'er sent a black-clothed assassin to assassinate on the street for the first time, she thought that there must be someone on the Xishu side who secretly supported Luo Qi'er's actions, providing Luo Qi'er with convenience and manpower, and so on.
Then on the day she went back, she asked Dongling to mobilize all the forces of Mo Li on this side to secretly investigate the matter, and find out who was so holy to help Luo Qi'er kill her.
When Luo Qi'er died, Dong Ling and the others noticed more clues, and then rescued Jiang Yunchang and basically had the answer to prepare, so she recorded this matter one by one and let Dong Ling personally hand it over to the British king.
King Ying is already a capable person, and with all kinds of clues that Dongling and others have investigated in advance, he has decisively locked the identity and purpose of the suspect in his heart.
The matter is very related, involving the struggle for imperial power in Xishu, and it has long been more than just the life and death of such a distinguished guest as Han Jiangxue, so the king did not hesitate at the moment, and directly entered the palace to report the matter to the emperor.
Before departing back to Dongming. Han Jiangxue and King Ying had already secretly discussed everything, and arranged everything, waiting for Prince Chun's move.
The appearance of this old monster in cloth was expected by them. The British king had already figured out the specific strength of this person, and after making sure that Kunnu could take this person at all, everything became much simpler.
After Beifeng handed over the cloth-clothed old monster to the British king's people, Prince Chun's affairs no longer needed Han Jiangxue to be more reasonable, and the Xishu Emperor would naturally clean up the portal. And this time, Han Jiangxue did Emperor Xishu a great favor again, and this good fate will naturally not end in vain in the future.
It's only two hours. Beifeng caught up with Han Jiangxue and his party again, and the matter was already in order, and several injured brothers were also arranged. Please Han Jiangxue don't worry.
At the same time, since Kunnu had already appeared, he no longer followed secretly, but escorted Han Jiangxue with Dongling and others. The group traveled lightly. It's a lot faster than ever.
After entering the territory of Dongming, their whereabouts became smoother and smoother, and there was no minor trouble for seven or eight days, and at this time they were getting closer and closer to the capital.
When he arrived at a small town called Jiangxia, it was already dark, and Dongling directly led everyone into the only inn in the town, and the secret guard had already arrived in advance to book customers for the eldest lady to rest here overnight.
As soon as you enter the inn. Han Jiangxue felt that there was something strange in it, although it was said that this town was not big. There weren't too many people coming and going, but it was the only inn in town, and there was no one in it except the shopkeeper.
"Dongling, did you let people wrap up this place?" Han Jiangxue said to Dong Ling beside him: "This is not good, there is such an inn here, it will be very inconvenient for other travelers to stay if they have no place to stay." ”
"Miss, my subordinates didn't charter this place, they just asked people to come and book a room first." Dongling said: "Maybe it's just a coincidence, there are no people living in the hotel today. ”
Hearing this, the shopkeeper on the side hurriedly stepped forward and explained: "This young lady, the small shop has indeed been chartered, and this afternoon the girl's entourage just booked the room, and another distinguished guest came to charter all the remaining rooms." Moreover, the young lady does not have to worry about the other lodging people, a few days ago a small inn happened to be opened less than a mile away from the town, but she was not afraid of having no place to live. ”
"I stow so." After hearing this, Han Jiangxue nodded slightly and didn't say anything else.
And Ziyue looked around vigilantly and said, "Shopkeeper, since the other remaining rooms here have all been packed, why haven't you seen anyone staying in the hotel?" ”
"This girl, it's like this, the private room is the same as you, and I also sent someone to book in advance first, this will not arrive yet, it is estimated that it will be some evening." The shopkeeper explained with a smile, and then asked, "I wonder if the guest officers will eat downstairs first, or go back to the room to rest first, and let the little one deliver the food to the guest room?" ”
"First prepare more hot water for my young lady to send to the room, and then prepare some more exquisite meals later, and I will let someone come down to fetch it." After these days, Ziyue has slowly become a little bit like a housekeeper, and she is very handy in arranging these things.
When the shopkeeper heard this, he was full of answers, and Dongling asked the others to take turns to eat in batches, and the rest went to check the inn and guard the eldest lady first.
"Miss, do you need to find out who chartered the inn first?" After sending Han Jiangxue to the upper room, Dongling asked for instructions, and such a situation is worth noting whether it is a coincidence or not.
"No, if those people really had a problem, they wouldn't have used it in such an obvious way." Han Jiangxue shook her head: "After the people come in a while, just pay a little more attention." You're tired of the day, so let's go down and eat and rest. ”
"Yes!" In this way, Dongling obeyed the order and no longer mentioned what had just happened.
"Mistress, just in case, let's let Kunnu go and investigate alone, so that you can feel at ease." Kunnu suddenly came out and offered to check the origin of the people in the private room.
Seeing this, Han Jiangxue didn't refuse anymore, and thought about it: "That's okay, you can go, if there is nothing wrong with the people, it is best not to alarm them, so as not to make the family frightened." ”
When she goes out, everyone regards safety as the most important thing, so Han Jiangxue doesn't want her people to disturb other people because of protecting her, which is not good after all.
"Rest assured, hostess, Kunnu takes it to heart." With that, Kunnu didn't delay any longer and retreated first.
And Dong Ling didn't bother anymore, and stepped back first, letting Ziyue serve the eldest lady first.
After closing the door, Ziyue tested the temperature of the hot water behind the screen, and when she saw that it was just right, she asked Han Jiangxue to move over and take a comfortable hot bath to get rid of fatigue.
Don't look at staying in the carriage all day long, but it's really not a comfortable thing to sit for a long time, and after a lot of bumps all day, people's bones are about to fall apart.
Although the carriage that Han Jiangxue was sitting in was carefully modified by Mo Li, and it was much more stable than ordinary carriages, the roads he had passed through in the past two days were really uneven, and he was much more tired than usual.
After taking a bath and changing into clean clothes, Han Jiangxue felt a lot more refreshed.
"Ziyue, don't be busy, let's go take a bath first, it's very comfortable." Han Jiangxue saw that Ziyue was busy there again, and said with a smile: "Okay, don't be busy, it's not that I can't clip myself, you are also tired for a day, go to rest early, eat something, and sleep well." ”
"Don't worry, I'll go again after Miss finishes eating." Ziyue said as she asked Han Jiangxue to eat quickly, so as to save herself from hunger.
"Then let's eat together, I can't finish so many meals alone anyway." Seeing this, Han Jiangxue directly pulled Ziyue and sat down: "Eat quickly, go to rest early after eating, you have to get up early tomorrow morning and hurry." ”
Ziyue is not that kind of hypocritical person, and besides, she has eaten at the same table with the eldest lady more than once when she goes out, so she didn't shirk it and quickly sat down.
The two of them had just picked up the bowl and were about to eat, but there was a knock on the door outside, and Dong Ling's slightly anxious voice: "Ziyue come out quickly, I have something urgent to find you." ”
Seeing that it was Dongling, Ziyue opened the door and asked very puzzledly, "What's the matter?" ”
"Ouch, you can come out first." Dong Ling was unusual, and he didn't even care about the difference between men and women, and directly pulled Ziyue and walked outside.
Of course, Dong Ling didn't forget to say embarrassedly to Han Jiangxue in the room: "Miss, I'm really sorry, my subordinates are in a bit of a private matter and are anxious to ask Ziyue for help, you can be accommodating, let's eat by yourself first, if there is something waiting outside, you can tell them." ”
After that, Dong Ling stubbornly didn't wait for Han Jiangxue to respond, and directly pulled away Ziyue, who had been shocked by his rude and abrupt behavior for the first time.
After the two of them left at the door, the guards guarding outside closed the room again, so as not to disturb the eldest lady.
Han Jiangxue was also a little inexplicable, I really didn't know that Dong Ling didn't know what medicine he had taken just now, and he actually pulled Ziyue away directly in front of her, and said that he had something private to ask Ziyue for help, I really don't know when this guy opened his mind.
Abnormality is really a bit abnormal, but Han Jiangxue didn't think much about it, but was happy for this Dongling and Ziyue, so it was difficult for the relationship between the two people to break through again.
Smiling, without further thought, she picked up the bowl again and prepared to eat.
The chopsticks had just caught a piece of ribs, and before they could put it in their mouths, there was a knock on the door again.
"Coming back so soon? What the hell is Dongling doing, are you playing? Han Jiangxue only thought it was Ziyue, put down the bowl strangely and said, "Come in!" ”
Hearing her words, the knocker outside did not answer, but the door creaked and was pushed open.
Soon, a cyan figure walked in, but it wasn't Ziyue! (To be continued......)
PS: Thank you for the two votes cast by the monotonous Bao'er, thank you for the gift of Qiqi and the wall, uh, I have to add more, but it will take a few days, I'm really busy these days, Mo Da, I won't forget it.
