Chapter 169: Showing Kindness

"Huh?" Chu Xingchen was dumbfounded, and he said, how could Qi Yu suddenly go to investigate Empress Jiang. "Why did you put your mind on the palace?"

Meng Qi shook his head, not planning to continue this topic with Chu Xingchen.

"Okay, now the first thing is to find out where the two waves of assassins came from, so you go to Yinyue Tower, and I'll stay here without moving."

After a while, Meng Qi patted Chu Xingchen's head, and then assigned tasks to the two of them.

Chu Xingchen nodded and turned to leave, but he didn't take two steps before he realized that he was? He was actually ordered by someone, which is really hateful.

Looking back, Meng Qi was gone.

……

Zhou Huan, who returned to the tent, finally calmed down after washing his face with cold water.

Anyway, Qi Yu couldn't participate in the hunt, although he was injured, he could still stay in the hunting ground to recuperate.

At night, Meng Qi's voice came from outside the tent. "Princess?"

Zhou Huan, who was just about to fall asleep, got up and welcomed Meng Qi in, and then Meng Qi glanced at Qi Yu, who was still asleep not far away, and then put his eyes on Zhou Huan.

Maybe it's because she wants to rest, Zhou Huan's black hair is scattered over her shoulders, her already shaved face is even smaller, her red lips are pursed, and she doesn't seem to be in a very good mood.

"What does the princess think of today's incident?"

Meng Qi is this kind of character, even if he and Zhou Huan already know each other, and even he is very concerned about Zhou Huan, but the words are so cold.

Zhou Huan didn't care much about it, for some reason, she still had a lot of trust in Meng Qi.

"Two waves of assassins, the first batch of people should not be aimed at the emperor, more seem to be Ming Guifei, the second group of people, it seems that they have not been trained, and they have no clue for the time being."

After finishing speaking, Zhou Huan got up and put the letter in Wanfu Building in front of Meng Qi. "That's what I found."

Sure enough, two days ago, someone in the rivers and lakes offered a heavy reward for a group of assassins.

Meng Qi nodded, knowing in his heart, and then spoke, "It turns out that behind Wanfulou is actually the princess. ”

Zhou Huan raised his eyebrows and smiled, "You can go over and point when you have time." ”

A smile appeared on the corner of Meng Qi's lips, and then he nodded. Suddenly, he thought of something again and said, "Chu Xingchen has already made arrangements, and I will send you back early tomorrow morning." ”

Who knows, Zhou Huan shook his head. "I can't go."

"What does the emperor mean?" Meng Qi answered, "Is it possible to become the emperor and ...... again"

Zhou Huan shook his head gently, "Not yet, but the eldest prince has been aggressive today, and the emperor asked the eldest prince to investigate, I'm worried." ”

Zhou Huan was worried that according to Qi Heng's character, Qi Yu would be blamed unexpectedly.

"I see." Meng Qi immediately sighed, comforted Zhou Huan and said, "Then the princess and the prince will stay in the hunting ground with peace of mind, with me, it will be fine." ”

In the end, he still didn't tell Zhou Huan more things about this hunt. Maybe Qi Yu's worries are not wrong, these dangerous things should not involve Zhou Huan.

Zhou Huan nodded, and his tired body finally felt tired.

When he sent Meng Qi back, Qi Yu was having a nightmare, he was sweating, his hands were stretched out in the air, and he didn't know what he was struggling with.

"Let her go, don't hurt ......"

"No!"

"Hui'er!!"

……

Zhou Huan sighed, as if Qi Yu's nightmare had something to do with Song Hui. For some reason, when she heard the name Song Hui and shouted it out of Qi Yu's mouth, she still felt strange in her heart.

However, there were more and more beads of sweat on Qi Yu's head.

"Ah Yu, I'm here." Zhou Huan pursed her lips and looked at Qi Yu, "Hui'er is here, she won't go anywhere." ”

"Sleep, I'll be there for you when I wake up."

She comforted Qi Yu to fall back asleep, and then sat aside with a sigh of relief.

Zhou Huan calmly thought about what happened today, if those people were really coming for the emperor, I am afraid that this hunt between her and Qi Yu would not be able to survive safely.

But Meng Qi's attitude doesn't seem to be like this.

Although Meng Qi was very strict, his lying appearance was too obvious.

But who are those people?

If those people really didn't come for the emperor, then they could only come for Concubine Ming. But if that's the case, wouldn't the queen be the most suspicious.

Empress......

Zhou Huan pondered these two names repeatedly, and then sighed and suddenly thought of another very worrying thing. 53 Chinese Net

If it is really the queen, the emperor must have noticed something, then the emperor still asked the eldest prince to track down, is this to abandon the queen?

Thinking of this, Zhou Huan only felt that the things in front of him were finally able to see clearly, and they seemed to be tangled together in a daze.

Early in the morning of the second day, Zhou Huan had just opened his eyes, and Yuxi, who had been waiting at the door, also walked in.

"What's the arrangement at the hunting ground today?" Zhou Huan slept in a daze, she couldn't sleep last night, and stayed by Qi Yu's side until midnight.

"Didn't you, princess, you actually forgot?" Yuxi took the basin and put it in front of Zhou Huan, "Today is the horse race presided over by the queen mother herself." ”

"Oh." Zhou Huan suddenly realized, and then heard the queen again, maybe she should go to meet the queen.

"Freshen up."

Yuxi was busy while chattering to Zhou Huan, "Princess, when I came here just now, I saw that those princess ladies were wearing extraordinarily thick clothes, for fear of falling off the horse." ”

When Zhou Huan heard this, he laughed, "Don't worry, I'm not so squeamish." ”

Hearing that Zhou Huan was in a good mood, Yuxi also laughed. "The princess is a woman with eyebrows, and she will definitely be able to take the first place."

Just as the master and servant were chatting happily, someone suddenly stood outside the door of the tent and asked to come in.

"Princess."

As soon as he heard the voice, Zhou Huan heard Shen's voice.

She and Yuxi glanced at each other, and their faces immediately returned to their usual coldness and detachment. "Please come in, the eldest princess."

Shen walked in, she wore a warm orange short jacket today, and her complexion was much better, thinking about it, she should have taken what Zhou Huan said before to heart.

However, Shen is not just in her heart now, but engraved in her bones, and what she is thinking about is to pay the price for those who have harmed her to this point.

Thinking of this, Shen smiled at Zhou Huan, "Seventh princess, sure enough, we will meet again soon." ”

The last time they separated, the Shen family had told Zhou Huan that they would meet again soon.

Zhou Huan didn't answer, and there was no expression on his face, and then said to the Shen family: "I didn't expect that the eldest princess was so weak, and she actually came over. ”

When the previous convoy came over, Zhou Huan didn't notice Shen.

At that time, Zhou Huan was still wondering in her heart, according to the thoughts that Shen had revealed before, she and Zhou Meng should be making trouble in the palace now.

When thinking like this, Zhou Huan looked at Shen with another scrutiny in his eyes.

But who knows, Shen also stood in front of Zhou Huan without panic at all, and said to her: "What do you think of today's horse race, princess?" ”

Zhou Huan was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Could it be that the eldest princess came over today to talk to me about this?" ”

Shen smiled, "Is there anything wrong with talking about this?" ”

"Even if it disappoints you again, this princess doesn't know the abilities of the ladies in the capital, so I'm afraid I can't guess anything." Zhou Huan smiled, not wanting to talk to Shen anymore.

Seeing that Zhou Huan didn't cooperate with him at all, Shen smiled indifferently, looked at Zhou Huan beside him and said with a smile: "Since the princess can't guess, it's okay, I'm just here to tell you, let you be careful of your good sister." ”

Hearing this, Zhou Huan's eyes that had been hanging down raised slightly.

But in an instant, she still regained her calm expression and nodded at Shen, looking like she had never taken Shen's words to heart.

Shen is also a person who will judge the situation and know that it is useless for him to stay here, so he turned around and left here without hesitation.

However, before leaving, she still said to Zhou Huan: "If I help the princess today, I hope that the princess can give me a chance to talk next time I come over." ”

……

……

And after Zhou Huan here packed up his things and hurried to the racecourse, sure enough, Concubine Ming and the queen were already waiting there.

Seeing that everyone was almost here, the queen smiled and looked at the sons-in-law below and said, "The emperor and the adults are hunting on the other side, and it must be an interesting thing for our daughters to race horses here." ”

"However, in recent years, there have been fewer and fewer young ladies in the capital who can hunt."

Concubine Ming on the side smiled and took the queen's words. "I think when we entered the palace at that time, horseback riding was still a popular fashion."

"It seems that Concubine Ming has been thinking about the capital for all the years since she left." The queen nodded, but her words collided with Concubine Ming.

Concubine Ming hooked her lips and smiled, but did not answer.

The queen raised her eyes and glanced at the kneeling people below, and then said to everyone: "In this case, this palace will not delay your time, let's start early." ”

Zhou Huan was divided into the third group, and there was actually Zhou Meng among the people in the same group as her.

"I didn't expect my big sister to be able to ride a horse, so I'll have to let us a little later." Zhou Meng said this, and glanced at the woman standing next to him.

"Of course." Who knows, Zhou Huan also replied unceremoniously: "It's you, I've never seen you ride a horse, it seems that there are quite a lot of hidden things that can't be on the table on weekdays,"

Zhou Mengqi couldn't do it, but he was helpless.

She glanced at Zhou Huan viciously, and thought with a sneer in her heart: Wait a minute, you will look good.
