Chapter 291: Entering Jinling
Su Chen was found and did not die, this news made the officials and officials of the Jiangning Mansion, Jin Wuwei, Dali Temple, and the Criminal Department all breathe a sigh of relief, except for those with ulterior motives who hope that something will happen to him, the rest of them are worried about their own black yarn hat, so they treat him as a little ancestor and protect him closely.
Because Su Chen's injuries were a bit serious, coupled with this morning's fighting, he had lost his strength, and the new and old injuries were all in place, so he could only lie in the carriage for the time being, and was taken care of by Peng Jingqing and Zhou Jiamin.
In order to avoid embarrassment, Su Chen directly closed his eyes and went to sleep, and let Peng Jingqing and Zhou Jiamin chat in the car, otherwise, it would be difficult for him to express his position and how to deal with the relationship between the two daughters.
For the time being, Su Chen didn't want to tell his agreement with Jia Min, so he pretended to be confused, pretended to be asleep, and avoided this topic.
The second daughter looked at the few wounds bandaged on Su Chen's body, although they didn't bleed anymore, they were still very distressed, and after crying a few times, their eyes were a little red.
"If I were here, I wouldn't let these assassins hurt him." Peng Jingqing was a little remorseful that he couldn't be by his side.
After Zhou Jiamin heard this, he blamed himself a little and said: "It's all my fault, I have to come to Jinling together, dragging down Brother Su, if he is the only one, maybe it will be easier to escape, and he will not be surrounded by assassins, and there will be such a vicious battle." β
Peng Jingqing glanced at her and asked, "What the hell is going on, can you explain the situation clearly?" β
Zhou Jiamin nodded, and told the story of the attack the night before, how to protect her to break through, and Su Chen's counter-killing of the four assassins outside the cave.
Peng Jingqing's eyes bloomed, he couldn't imagine that Su Chen was so brave, he really had a three-day absence, and he was impressed.
The image of Yunwen Yunwu suddenly rose tall in her heart, especially protecting weak women and fighting alone to get out of the encirclement, this image of a lonely hero appeared for the first time in Peng Jingqing's heart.
The only regret is that she did not see it with her own eyes, and it is not her who is protected.
"Su Chen is such a person, warm-hearted and has a sense of justice, Miss Zhou, you don't have to take it too seriously, since Su Chen didn't have an accident, then you don't have to worry about it, remember it like this."
Peng Jingqing enlightened with a "kind heart", and planned to persuade Zhou Jiamin to open some and not to keep it in mind. Otherwise, although the hero saves the beauty of the bridge, it is common in legends, but every time it happens, the woman who is protected can often have feelings because of it.
She was a little worried, and Zhou Jiamin fell in love with Su Chen because of this.
Even if Peng Jingqing is a smug woman, as a woman, her sixth sense is still keen, and her worry is actually very necessary.
Zhou Jiamin shook his head lightly and said, "I can't forget it." β
"......" Peng Jingqing's forehead almost burst into blue tendons, if the other party's identity was not the daughter of the prince, the sister of the current queen, she would want to beat people.
The team sped up and arrived at Jinling City in three hours.
Su Chen heard the second daughter talking about the arrival of Jinling, he woke up leisurely, sat up, lifted the curtain, and looked at the majestic Jinling City in front of him.
"Jiangnan Beauty, Jinling Imperial State!" Su Chen sighed softly, and finally saw this Jinling City of the Southern Tang Dynasty, which was full of legends and stories.
This is the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, but today's Jinling City is located in the south of the site of the Jiankang Capital City of the Six Dynasties destroyed in the Sui Dynasty, newly built by Yang Wu and expanded by Li Tang.
Since they came from Runzhou, north of Jinling, they had to enter the capital through the north gate "Xuanwu Gate".
There are a total of eight city gates in Jinling City in the Southern Tang Dynasty, including five land gates, three water gates, the "Xuanwu Gate" in the north is not the Xuanwu Gate where Taizong of the Tang Dynasty launched a coup d'Γ©tat, nor is it the north gate of the Southern Tang Imperial Palace. The reason why the word Xuanwu is taken is because the north gate of Jinling is close to the Xuanwu Lake in the northern suburbs outside the city, so the name of Xuanwu Gate is taken.
The convoy approached the city gate, Su Chen still couldn't help but look up, the main wall of the Xuanwu city gate was three zhang high, the blue bricks were simple, the battlements between the brick buttresses at the head of the city were the guards' lookout holes and shooting ports, the city tower was towering, the corner tower, the watchtower, stood at intervals, it was very powerful, and the roof was the standard heavy eaves and nine ridges of the mountain type, it looked solemn and solemn.
"It's finally here." Su Chen sighed, there were twists and turns on the way, and he almost lost his life several times, if it wasn't for his strong psychological endurance, it would be really easy to be scared to death.
"Wow, Jinling City is so big!" Thirteen-year-old boy Jing Yun couldn't help but say excitedly.
Jing Hong coughed dryly and reminded: "Yun'er, don't make noise in the team, pay attention to your identity, you are not a hunter anymore." β
Jing Yun stuck out his tongue, he was a teenager and had never seen the world, so he felt new and interesting to see anything.
The guards guarding the city saw the combination of Jin Wuwei, Jiangning Mansion Ya Arrest Kuai, the Criminal Department and the officials of Dali Temple, and suddenly realized that this should be related to the fact that they went out of the city last night to find Su Chen.
At the gate of the city, two eunuchs stood eager to see through, and when they saw the team returning, they hurriedly stepped forward to ask.
Jin Wuwei Youlang dismounted Sima Changying and hugged his fists and said: "Back to my father-in-law, Su Chen has been found and is temporarily injured, but there is no worry about his life." β
"That's good, that's good, the official family is still waiting for Su Gongzi to enter the palace to treat the prince and the queen, and there is no delay, as long as he still has the breath, he will be sent to the palace first." The eunuch said in a shrill voice.
"That's okay, I'll arrange it and escort it into the palace immediately!" Sima Changying didn't dare to delay, so he turned around and went to the team, first informed Yin Peng Zeliang of Jiangning Mansion, Cao Yongqin, Shaoqing of Dali Temple, and Liu Jin and others in the Criminal Department, and then walked to Su Chen's carriage and communicated with Su Chen.
"Su Gongzi, the official family is anxious, the prince and the queen are in critical condition and can't be delayed, Ben Lang will escort you and follow the two fathers-in-law into the palace to see you."
When Su Chen heard this, he nodded slightly, his face was a little pale, and his limbs were weak, but he had recovered some strength after sleeping in the car for two hours.
"Okay, let's enter the palace!"
Peng Jingqing showed a complaining look, she didn't care whether the prince and the queen lived or died, she was only worried about Su Chen's safety.
"You're like this, you have to enter the palace immediately!"
"There's no way, there is a difference between monarchs and ministers, don't disobey orders! Besides, the condition of the second prince and the queen is in danger, saving people is like fighting a fire, it really can't be delayed any longer, I grit my teeth and persevere, it's okay! β
Zhou Jiamin felt uncomfortable when she heard this, her sister and nephew on one side, and her beloved Lang Jun on the other, which actually made her embarrassed.
But Su Chen's words were full of righteousness and benevolence, which made Zhou Jiamin extremely happy, wiped his tears and nodded: "Brother Su, I thank you for my sister and Zhong Xuan, when you enter the palace and are diagnosed, I will ask the imperial brother-in-law to arrange a palace rest for you, and there is a doctor in the palace, which will definitely alleviate Brother Su's injury." β
Peng Jingqing pouted and said: "The imperial doctor is useful, so you don't have to rush over Su Chen with all the difficulty, believe them, it is better to believe in Su Chen." β
Su Chen smiled bitterly and said, "Okay, don't fight, Jiamin and I will enter the palace first, Qinqing, you go back to the house first and wait." β
Peng Jingqing shook his head and said: "No, I want to follow you at all times, otherwise I don't worry, you just treat me as a follower, I will help you carry the medicine box and work on the side!" β
Su Chen couldn't persuade her, so he had to agree and enter the palace together.
