(Chapter 270) Red Maple Ends Before Coldness (21)
Out of the cold palace, I wanted to leave alone, but I didn't expect Gu Yuancheng to stand by the palace road waiting for me, I was surprised and bowed goodbye to him.
Gu Yuancheng seemed to have something to say to me, but the servants in the palace came and went, and he could only return the salute.
"If the Qin Kingdom is really defeated in the future, you can come to me." He looked at me.
My eyes lit up slightly, and I didn't speak.
He sighed and sent me out of the palace.
I got into the carriage and immediately returned to Qinguo with Du Rong, in the car, Du Rong asked me what to do with Emperor Qi, I honestly told him all, when I mentioned that I went to see Concubine Li, he shook his head very helplessly.
"His Majesty Emperor Qi clearly wants to give you the notoriety, but you still admit it stupidly, what should I say to you?"
I lazily lay back and took out a jade bottle from my sleeve, "That's it." β
"The antidote to the poison of weak water?" Du Rong squinted slightly.
I nodded, "Yes." β
Du Rong looked at my proud appearance and shook his head and smiled.
When the falling sound flowers began to fall overwhelmingly again, Du Rong and I finally hurried back to the capital.
The people in the capital are still the same, and the people who come and go are all in a hurry, and occasionally stop, either for love or for the sake of their livelihood in the past.
But under such a prosperous scene, an unusual undercurrent is still surging up, and if one is not careful, countless people will pay for it with their lives.
"Childe, are you back?" Sun Hu had been waiting at the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion for a long time, and as soon as he saw my carriage stop, he immediately greeted him.
I smiled and nodded to him and jumped out of the carriage.
"Childe, I'm ......" Sun Hu was about to say something, when he suddenly saw Du Rong coming out of the carriage, he was immediately surprised, and even swallowed the words in his mouth.
I glanced at Sun Hu and frowned slightly.
"Did something happen?" I asked him.
Sun Hu wanted to nod his head, and then wanted to shake his head, but when he shook it, he was at a loss.
I was just about to ask again, when a large number of officers and soldiers suddenly appeared around the Prime Minister's Mansion, surrounding the three of us.
"Who? Dare to be presumptuous in front of the prime minister! I flicked my sleeves and drank cold.
"Lord Shen Xiang, I haven't seen you for a long time, I heard that the emperor sent you to the Qi Kingdom? I don't know what the adults have gained here? At the corner of the wall, a middle-aged man dressed as a Confucian came out.
He smiled, but his eyes were cold.
"Lord Lu?" I was surprised, "What are you doing here?" Okay, why did you bring troops to surround my prime minister's mansion? β
Lu Xuan walked up to me, "The Prime Minister misunderstood, the lower officials did not come to surround the Prime Minister's Mansion, but on the orders of the emperor, they put the Du Thorn Shi next to you into the prison and waited for disposal." β
As soon as his words fell, a soldier wanted to step forward and make a move, and I immediately took a wrong step in front of Du Rong.
"Lord Lu is joking? Brother Du didn't steal and rob, how could the emperor order him to be put in prison? I sank my face and looked at Lu Xuan unceremoniously.
Lu Xuan didn't seem to want to fight me, and said loudly, "Why does Shen Xiang need to be so angry? Everyone is just doing things for the emperor, and the lower officials are not idle all day long, so they want to come to you to find trouble with Du Tingshi. β
"Okay," I sneered, "I'm going to ask Master Lu for the reason for this arrest." β
Lu Xuan frowned, and became a little impatient, "Du Tingshi left Daqin without the emperor's permission, does Lord Shen Xiang really not know about this matter?" β
I was stunned for a while before I dared to look back at Du Rong, but before I could confirm it, he had already walked in front of me.
"Lord Lu." He bowed slightly, "I'm tired." β
Du Rong was also his protΓ©gΓ© before, and Lu Xuan didn't embarrass him, and specially called a carriage for him to sit on.
"The emperor has something to tell your lordship," Lu Xuan watched Du Rong get into the car, and then turned his head to look at me again, "The emperor said that the sixth princess needs to recuperate quietly, and if Shen Xiang is fine, it is better not to bother." β
With my fists clenched tightly, I looked at Lu Xuan expressionlessly and didn't make a sound.
Lu Xuan didn't stay here for long, got on his horse, and left with the soldiers.
I stared at the carriage that was far away, and it didn't move for a long time, and finally Sun Hu couldn't stand it anymore, and reminded me loudly, "My lord, it's time to go home." β
Closing my eyes slightly, I walked into the Prime Minister's Mansion in silence.
When I arrived at the door of the study, I paused and asked Sun Hu, "Where is Xiaojie?" Why didn't you see him come out to meet me? β
Hearing me mention Wang Jie, Sun Hu's face changed suddenly, and he was speechless.
"What's wrong?" Suddenly I felt a bad feeling in my heart.
Wang Jiehe...... He ...... "Sun Hu's eyes are rolling around, but he doesn't dare to look at my face." Book 8
Seeing him like this, I couldn't help but be a little annoyed, "Sun Hu! β
Sun Huyi gritted his teeth and knelt on the ground, "Childe, Wang Jie...... He betrayed the Prime Minister's Mansion and has taken refuge in Lord Lu Xuan and become the guard of his mansion, and he asked me to tell you that once he goes, he will never come back, so you don't go to him. β
Silence, infinite silence.
I stared blankly at Sun Hu who was kneeling on the ground, countless ups and downs of my heart swept through my heart for a moment, and in the end, I just smiled lightly and walked into the study with my sleeves.
Sun Hu wanted to come in with him, but I tried my best to close the door of the study.
Like the moon, the north wind is Xiao Xiao.
I changed into a dark blue dress, covered my face with a black cloth, pushed open the window and rolled out. I quietly left the Prime Minister's Mansion, flew all the way to the wall, and went straight to the post house.
This night, Zhang Zhiyou always felt that there was a feeling of hair behind him, he expected that he should have been too sad to be close to his relatives recently, so he finished dinner early, blew out the candles, and lay down with his clothes closed.
I don't know if there are too many things in my heart, he tossed and turned in bed, but he couldn't sleep, and when it was late at night, he finally felt a little sleepy, but at this moment, a cold dagger glowed with the cold light of the moonlight, and it was impartially attached to his neck.
"Brother, if you have something to say." Zhang Zhiyou's face stiffened, and he barely pulled out a smile.
"Brother Zhang, why is he so scared?" I deliberately made a mocking remark.
Zhang Zhiyou is not unfamiliar with my voice, you know, there are few people in this world who dare to pretend to be his elders and rub him cheap.
"Shen Qingzhi, what do you want to do?" Zhang Zhiyou had a dark face and asked through gritted teeth.
Squinting slightly, I sneered, and the dagger in my hand deflected a few points along with my laughter, and suddenly blood beads snaked down from the blade.
Zhang Zhiyou was in pain, but he endured it and didn't make a sound.
"Master Zhang, I've always been a good talker, as long as you do what I say, I'll make sure you return to Qi Kingdom safely, but if you want to play tricks with me, then I have to make you a lonely ghost."
Every time I said a word, the knife was inserted into it, but Zhang Zhiyou didn't laugh angrily, "What are you so anxious for?" I'm afraid it's not that I, Zhang, have a big face, and I can work hard to move Lord Shen Xiang to do it himself, right? β
"If you manage it too widely, it's not good for longevity." Seeing that he was not afraid at all, I stopped holding the knife and put the dagger into my sleeve, and I sat down at the table.
"I'll give you three days, and within three days, no matter what method you use, please disappear into the capital immediately."
Hearing what I said, Zhang Zhiyou was very curious, he got off the bed, walked straight to the desk and lit the candle.
With a slight jump in the candlelight, the whole room lit up.
"I have already received an order from His Majesty the Emperor that I will not embarrass the Sixth Princess, and besides, you have already made it clear to the Emperor that you want to marry the Sixth Princess, why do you still raise a knife to threaten me today?"
I opened my eyes coldly, "I don't need you to ask about the rights and wrongs here." β
Zhang Zhiyou smiled, walked to the table, and poured me a cup of tea with his own hands, "You asked me to leave within three days, that is to say, you don't want to negotiate with your relatives this time, why?" Do you know the consequences of this? Could it be that you want to plunge your Qin country into the flames of war? β
With a twinkle in my eyes, I sneered, "You Qi country wolf ambitions, my battle with you is just inevitable." β
Zhang Zhiyou shook his head: "You are not a person who likes to break the word. β
I brushed my sleeves and got up, "Lord Zhang is not a person who likes to get to the bottom of things, right?" β
Zhang Zhiyou smiled and didn't speak.
"Three days, just three days, I don't want you to embarrass me." Without waiting for him to speak again, I walked out of the window.
The next day, after I gave Sun Hu a few words, I entered the palace alone.
I first went to Yuhe Palace, ready to visit Princess Yuhe, but Yuhe Palace was tightly guarded by the Praetorian Guards, and due to the rules, I had to leave.
However, before leaving, I still stopped a maid from Yuhe Palace and asked her if Her Royal Highness the princess's injuries were all right, and the maidservant nodded, saying that she was almost better.
I was relieved.
On the way to the imperial study, I met Jiang Hewei, who had just been summoned into the palace, and he was very surprised to see me.
"Aren't you locked up in a prison?"
I thought it was funny and angry, "Then you must not have visited the prison?" β
Jiang Hewei looked away a little weakly, "You also know, Yinyin, she is pregnant now, and I can't leave ......"
"Don't explain, besides, our brother can't do it." I laughed and shook my head as I walked forward.
Jiang Hewei caught up from behind, and his face finally became a lot more solemn, "What are you going to do when you go to the emperor at this time?" β
I winked my eyes and smiled, "What can I do?" It's just to intercede for Du Rong. β
Jiang Hewei didn't believe what I said at all, after so many years, could he still not understand me?
"If you want to intercede for Du Rong, count me as one, but if you want to do something else, I advise you to think twice, the emperor's recent health has become worse and worse, and it is the time when the suspicion is the heaviest, don't ask for hardship and touch his scales."
