Central Plains Chapter 18 Matryoshka Journey

The imperial capital is resplendent and noble in the Zhaoqing Palace

Empress Xiu Yuzhen supported her head with one hand, her phoenix eyes were slightly closed, she frowned, and the displeasure in her heart was written on her face.

The atmosphere was a little cold and even depressing, and the main hall was full of shadow guards in armor.

Raise soldiers for a thousand days and use them for a while.

She didn't expect that she would raise a group of waste, and none of the shadow guards sent out came back safely.

The only one who survived was still a person who had been abolished and was lying in prison waiting to die at this time.

"Who had the audacity to rob her?"

No one in the hall replied, and no one knew that there was only one disabled shadow guard who had returned.

According to his words, when the shadows came back, they took Luo Yunying with them, but they didn't expect to meet a man in black wearing a mask halfway through, and without saying a word, he killed all the shadow guards as soon as he made a move, leaving him alone, perhaps so that he could send a message to the empress of the palace.

The male pet next to him was half-covered and half-open, revealing his white and tender chest.

He pinched his shoulders and rubbed his back while comforting Xiu Yuzhen.

"Don't be angry, the empress has to take your time. In order to make meritorious service for the crime, Linglong's sinner girl was worried that the situation would change, so she had already taken her group with her.

Now that he knows the whereabouts of the little emperor, he is not afraid that he will not be able to find her. I'm sure she'll be brought back soon. ”

"I want to be unscathed."

Xiu Yuzhen emphasized again.

I don't know who the masked man who kidnapped Luo Yunying is, I just hope that person doesn't have other ideas.

Who is it? Who leaked the news and disrupted his plans at such a juncture.

"The order is sent down, and a senior shadow guard is sent to assist Linglong, arrest the mysterious masked man, and wait for the little emperor to return. Don't alarm the courtiers. ”

The current situation is special, and this action is bound to alarm Luo Qinghe and cause him to be suspicious and hostile to him.

After so many years, he will definitely not let go of his resentment towards himself.

But his daughter is not his alone, Luo Yunying is qualified and capable of coming back with his summons. She has the blood of the emperor on her body, and she should inherit the unification.

Xiu Yuzhen raised her eyes and looked at the shadow guards in the hall, beckoned them to go down.

It seems that not only he has thoughts about Luo Yunying, but there are also people who have been planning for many years like themselves.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but sigh, even if her methods were vicious, she still didn't want the shadow guards to bring the frightened Luo Yunying.

The mother and daughter have not seen each other for more than ten years, and it will be difficult for her to accept herself for a while.

If you really think about the bad things, it's hard to control. After all, he brought her back to control her and ensure his throne.

It's time for the emperor to change the emperor, but the royal power must be in her hands, as long as she is alive.

"Empress, I have learned a new method today, why don't you give it a try?"

The male pet had something to say, luring Xiu Yuzhen into the side hall.

The maidservants lowered the curtain and stood on the side. In a few moments, there were indescribable sounds in the room again, and the palace ladies were so accustomed to this that they lowered their heads and let those voices ring in their ears.

It turned out that the rumors in the market were true, and the empress was desolate and misled the country and fornicated with the harem.

The moon in the sky is white with blue light, and the rippling scenery on the ground is as beautiful and hazy as glass crystal.

The morning dew soaked her clothes, and the cold air made her feel like she was in a deep cellar.

Sweaty all over, clothes clinging to her body, sticky and greasy, a little worried behind her, maybe she stepped on dog shit when she was climbing the hill.

When a person is unlucky, he will stuff his teeth when he drinks cold water.

Luo Yunying finally managed to walk out of the poor countryside, and the soles of her feet were full of mud.

At this time, the sky was already white, and she took a deep breath. As soon as she thought that she would be able to see her father soon, she didn't feel tired anymore, and walked forward with all her strength on the bamboo pole.

"Daddy, I'm back. I'll never leave you again."

The outside world is too dangerous and too cruel.

After walking for less than a few miles, I already felt numb on the soles of my feet, and my legs were as weak as noodles, and I no longer had any strength.

When is it a head? I can't go back in this life!

Just when she was desperate and discouraged, her eyes saw the city gate not far away, where the three big characters of Cangzhou City were clearly written.

She couldn't believe it, rubbed her eyes and looked at it again, yes, it was Cangzhou City, she actually came back by mistake!

The emperor lives up to his wishes, after experiencing this immenseness, God is still good to her and shows her a clear way.

Just as she was about to run over, there was a chaotic sound of horses' hooves in her ears, and her heart suddenly panicked, feeling that something big was about to happen.

Luo Yunying turned her head with a bamboo pole, and when she looked back, she was frightened, and a group of black-clothed people suddenly rode horses in front of her.

There were no less than a dozen people, each with a knife in his hand, riding on a horse, looking at himself domineeringly.

She is very familiar with this outfit, that is, they killed so many people, and they snatched themselves. How did they come back again?

So her scalp immediately tightened, her breathing was short, and out of the psychology of escape, she subconsciously turned her head and ran away.

"Still want to run?"

The man in black at the head wore a mask, and a pretty female voice came into her ears.

Before he could run a few steps, he was knocked unconscious, and the bamboo pole in his hand fell to the ground.

She was helpless, she didn't have a chance to struggle, when was this a head!

When he was conscious, he also heard the voice of the woman in his ear, "Little Emperor, offended." ”

The petite body was thrown onto the horse's back, and the hairpin that was left of the hair fell to the yellow earth.

only heard a "drive", and the group of black-clothed people turned their heads and walked along the road in the direction of the imperial capital.

When Li Chen learned that Luo Qinghe was going to the imperial capital, he couldn't sit still in the mansion.

A few days ago, I packed my bags and was about to shout that I wanted to go to the imperial capital with Luo Qinghe. But as the only son of the Li family, how could the king of Fujun be willing to let him go to the place where the dragon and tiger are entrenched. insisted on not letting him go, and locked him in the room in order to stop him.

If you can't go openly, then come in secret. Can this little trick stop him?

In order to let them relax their vigilance, Li Chen pretended to stop these days and stayed in the room without making any trouble. In fact, his heart was as if he had been scratched by a cat, and he thought in his heart that if he didn't lift his house arrest, he would break out even if he broke in.

Fortunately, the king of Fujun saw that he did not mention the matter of going to the imperial capital to find Luo Yunying again, so he relaxed his vigilance, removed the guards, and allowed him to travel casually, but he couldn't leave the county king's mansion.

But this gave Li Chen, who had been planned for a long time, an opportunity.

When the sky had just dawned, Li Chen pinched the time, sneaked out of the county king's mansion, put on a small bag, and led a sweaty BMW to the outside of the city.

"Ning Ning, don't be afraid, I'm coming to you."

Li Chen drove a sweaty BMW out of Cangzhou City in light clothes and civilian clothes, and he looked inside the city with a conscience and a little reluctance outside the city gate.

This time he sneaked out, which will definitely break his father's heart. But he had no choice, he couldn't do it in Luo Yunying's matter.

The imperial capital is dangerous, and there are many difficulties ahead, even if he can't see her when he arrives in the imperial capital, it is a problem, but he has to go hard.

He couldn't think about it so much, instead of hiding in the house and suffering mental pressure, it was better to face it in person and solve it. He wanted to bring Luo Yunying back in person.

The rooster cries and the dog barks, and the sun rises in the east, and the hazy moon hangs in the west, reflecting it.

The golden dawn stretched the shadows of the earth. A pair of horse legs became more and more slender under the sun's rays, and Li Chen raised his long whip to set off. When I turned my head, I saw the green bamboo pole not far away, and there seemed to be something glowing golden on the yellow earth.

He took hold of the reins, got up and dismounted, and led the leash as he walked toward the place.

How can there be gold and jade gems on the ground outside the city gates? When he picked it up from the ground and looked at it, this beaded hairpin was clearly Luo Yunying's favorite to wear on weekdays, how could he be here?

Li Chen turned his head and looked around, looking at the hairpin in his hand with worry and surprise, and began to guess in his heart.

Did she just come here? Is she back in the guild hall again?

Li Chen couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart, and left the matter of going to the imperial capital behind, he had to go back to the guild hall to see if she was back.

The streets and alleys began to be lively. Tailor shops, teahouses, pawn shops, hospitals... The doors were opened, the streets were shouting and shouting, and children were frolicking through the crowd.

But seeing Li Chen riding a bloody horse, he hurried to the Jingming Hall as if in a hurry, attracting the attention of the chatter.

"Little Hou Ye is in such a hurry, what are you going to do?"

"The young master of the Jingming Hall has been missing for several days, and he hasn't been found yet. Not only was the guild hall anxious, but the county king's mansion also sent people to look for it. Poor teenage girl disappeared like this. ”

The other person sighed on the side, on weekdays, he could still see Luo Yunying who came out to play in men's clothes, without her, there would be something missing in this market.

"Then the owner of the guild hall didn't look for it?"

"I don't know who I offended, I heard others say that the little marquis also came back covered in blood that day, and now he can still ride a horse, and he still relies on the care of the county king and the blessing of God."

"Alas, what a pitiful!"

The Jingming Hall was as lively as ever, and it seemed that nothing had happened. But everyone knew that Luo Yunying was missing, and Luo Qinghe was sad.

Ignoring the etiquette, Li Chen stepped into the hall wrapped in wind and dust.

"Pavilion Master! Embroidered aunt! Embroidered aunt! ”

Everyone looked at Li Chen in unison following the source of the voice. Aunt Xiu also heard the sound and came down from the second floor.

"Little Hou Ye, what's wrong with being in such a hurry?"

"Is Ning Ning back?"

Xiu Gu was stunned, and then shook her head very helplessly.

The battle that day was so big, how could she still have a chance to come back?

Li Chen was surprised, he didn't come, and Luo Qinghe wasn't there. What's the matter with the hairpins outside the city? Could it be that she should have returned, but was robbed again?

He took out a hairpin from his sleeve and handed it to Aunt Xiu.

When she saw the hairpin, Xiu Gu almost didn't stand firm, her body staggered back, and then tears filled her eyes.

Without waiting for Aunt Xiu to ask, Li Chen explained.

"Xiugu, this is what I picked up outside the city, I suspect that Ning Ning originally came back, but was caught by those people again. Put it away, and take me to find her. ”

He is determined to come back this time, Luo Yunying may not be able to escape if he falls into the tiger's mouth, and I am afraid that this trip to the imperial capital must go.

It's a pity that Luo Yunying's longing trip to the imperial capital actually went in this way. What did she do to be targeted by the imperial capital? Without further ado, let's go!
