Chapter 65: Escape
Situ Jing woke up and opened his eyes, and saw that he was lying in the secluded valley of the Qin Wangfu, he stretched out his hand and touched the empty space next to him, the tentacles were cold, Situ Jing raised his hand to block his eyes, how many mornings have he woken up, and there was such a warm body at hand holding his arm and sleeping peacefully.
Now the owner of that body is in Huarong, and she escaped from there with nine deaths, but she was taken captive again, which is really a trick.
Situ Jing closed his eyes and didn't dare to imagine what Mu Yunqi would encounter in Huarong at this time, whether he would be hunted down and killed like him, or whether he would be safe and sound. If Murong Jue knew that she was pregnant with her own child, would the two of them become hostages in Murong Jue's hands, and they would never see each other again from afar. A tear crossed Situ Jing's cheek, and they missed it because they didn't listen to the dissuasion and insisted on entering Huarong, and they would be for the rest of their lives!
No! He must enter Huarong again, no matter what, he must rescue Mu Yunqi, even if he doesn't want this throne, he wants Mu Yunqi to stay by his side.
Situ Jing tried all kinds of ways to leave the Qin Palace, but it was obvious that his father was more determined than him, and all the ways out were blocked.
After several attempts, Situ Jing finally had to give up, he was going to be trapped by his father in the Qin Palace, unless he gave up looking for Yun Murong, but even if he gave up, he would not let him out easily.
Situ Jing was sullen all day long, and he could only drink in the Qin Palace, and there was no way to see that Chu Yuan was in a hurry, because he was also monitored by His Majesty the Emperor, and he couldn't get out of this Qin Palace.
"Your Highness, you can't do anything wrong with that woman anymore, it's not worth it."
"What is not worth it, what is worth it, that is the person who this king loves the most, and everything is worth it."
"Your Royal Highness, children are long and heroes are short of breath, where are you like that cold-blooded prince who is martial arts."
"You said that this king is cold-blooded, when did this king become cold-blooded?"
"You don't have a cold-blooded relationship with those ladies, you give what you want when you like it, throw it aside if you don't like it, and whoever provokes you is not happy to be left out in the cold, and you have never ignored yourself because of any woman, but you look at you now, she is so angry that you jump to your feet, you still go forward to make her happy, as soon as she leaves you, it is like losing her soul, and the Lingzhi, desperately obtained, but single-mindedly just so that she can smile at you happily when she sees it. Is your life worth her smile? Your Highness, is she really worth your efforts? ”
"It's worth it!"
Chu Yuan felt that His Royal Highness was helpless, and he couldn't listen to what he said, so he could only ask King Rui for help.
When Situ Xi came to the Qin Palace, it was already dark, and when he walked into the courtyard, he saw him drinking alone under a big tree, with a chair and a set of utensils next to him.
Situ Xi walked over and sat down, Situ Jing was about to be angry, but when he saw that it was someone who came, he endured it.
"I'm sorry, I'll use Mu Yunqi's position." Situ Xi knew that those were left for Mu Yunqi.
Situ Jing let out an "um" from his nose.
Situ Xi poured himself a cup and drank it, and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't take care of her because of your trust." ”
Situ Jing was angry when he said this, and the wine glass was heavily rested on the table by him, making a crisp sound.
Situ Jing turned his head and glared at him angrily and asked, "Why did such a thing happen, abducting important officials of the imperial court under the nose of the Son of Heaven, what are you all doing?" ”
Situ Xi recalled the scene at that time and said: "We just received the news of your disappearance that day, Yunqi was calm at first, but as soon as she left the palace gate, she fainted. I took her back to Rui Wang's Mansion and called Ah Jing to see a doctor for her, there was no way, her identity could not be used by doctors outside, only Ah Jing could be trusted. ”
Situ Jing asked anxiously, "Is she okay?" ”
Situ Xi shook his head and continued: "It's okay, her body is fine, and the child is fine. Later, we discussed how to rescue you, but we couldn't come up with a suitable plan. After lunch, we dispersed and went our separate ways, and I asked Ah Yao to follow her. Later, Ah Xuan said that she went to the Guijun Pavilion first, but she came out after a while, and then went to the Prime Minister's Mansion. ”
Situ Xi took a sip of wine to moisten his throat and continued: "Murong Jue's plan was quite thorough, he first kidnapped Mu Yunxuan and Mu Yunzhi, saying that as long as Yun Murong came to exchange for the two Mu family ladies, and then destroyed a dry well of the Mu family. ”
"Dry wells?"
"Yes, it is said that there is a tablet of the ancestors of the Mu family there, so the Mu family had no time to separate at that time."
Situ Jing drank wine and squinted his eyes and thought that the dry well was the head of the Mu family, and Mu Zhiyuan didn't dare to say it, so he made up a tablet of the Mu family.
Situ Xi was still talking, "When the Mu family found out, Yun Murong had already gone to exchange hostages. ”
"What about Situ Xuan, what is he doing?"
"How can Ah Yao deal with so many people alone, it is said that there are hundreds of people, and there are two young ladies of the Mu family who need Ah Yao to send back."
"Yunqi values her two younger sisters very much."
Situ Xi nodded and said, "Yes, when you just left, an assassin assassinated Mu Yunxuan, wasn't it Yunqi who blocked that sword?" ”
Situ Xi sighed, "So Murong Jue calculated all this before acting." ”
"Murong is absolutely against you, you old fox." Situ Jing crushed the cup with one hand, as if it was Murong Jue who was crushed.
"Then why don't you chase it?"
"How can you not chase it, but it's always one step short, and you can't catch up." Situ Xi has also been wondering why he is so far behind.
"yes, that's just the last step." Situ Jing remembered the scene at the Huarong border, smashed the wine jug fiercely and said: "Just one step away, I can rescue her, I saw her, but I didn't know it was her!" ”
Situ Xi was confused by what he said, "What's the matter?" Did you meet her? ”
Situ Jing covered his face, tears flowing from his fingers, "I met her, at the border of Huarong, Murong Jue sent his personal guards to arrest her, they said that it was Huarong's most elite force." ”
"Why did King Huarong spend so much money to catch Yunqi?"
"I don't know, he would rather have beauty and gold than me, just let me get up, how can I give it to him, how can I agree."
Situ Xi also fell into deep thought, what could make Murong Jue like this, he had to ask Mu Yunqi, he seemed to remember what he had heard, and he heard that Mu Huaming's wife had been friendly with King Huarong.
"Could it be because of Mrs. Mu, Yunqi's mother?"
Situ Jing didn't know what was going on at all, and looked at him suspiciously, Situ Xi smiled and said, "It's all rumors, don't believe it, come, drink." ”
After three rounds of drinking, Situ Jing suddenly said, "Brother Sanhuang, can you help me?" ”
At this time, Situ Xi had already drunk too much, and the person was lying on the table and drowsy, Situ Jing pushed him, and the person did not react.
It had already been midnight since Situ Xi came out of the Qin Palace, and he had drunk too much and was staggering, almost vomiting, and his wide sleeves covered most of his face. The guard at the door stepped forward to help him and he pushed him away, and staggered into the carriage, which slowly drove away.
When the day was about to break, His Royal Highness King Rui who was only wearing underwear ran out of King Qin's mansion, and the guards were stunned when they saw King Rui, didn't King Rui leave in the middle of the night.
"Stupid, that's King Qin, don't chase after it."
The guards ran quickly, some went to the palace to deliver letters, and some went to the city gate to block them.
Situ Xi stood at the gate of King Qin's Mansion and looked at the sky, muttering to himself: "I can only buy you such a little time, so you can do it yourself." ”
In fact, Situ Xi has never been drunk, he deliberately exposed his flaws to Situ Jing and let him escape, because he also wanted to save Mu Yunqi, but he had no way to save him, so he had to let Situ Jing go, and only Situ Jing could save Mu Yunqi.
After dawn, the entire court was talking about the escape of King Qin, and the emperor was even more angry and slapped the table, but the guards came to report one by one:
"Report, King Rui's carriage was found in the suburbs, and the horses are gone."
"Report, last night at midnight, King Rui took the token and opened the city gate."
Angry, the emperor looked at Situ Xi and said angrily: "It's okay, why are you going to see him?" Still drinking with him, don't you know that you don't drink as much as him? ”
Situ Xi hurriedly knelt down and said: "Erchen is derelict in his duties, Erchen just thinks that his brother is bored and wants to accompany him, and he never thought that he would lose a big one because of a small one." ”
It's just that the emperor didn't have a problem with him, "Get up, let me go back to the house and reflect on it." ”
Situ Xi was ordered to return to the house for self-reflection, and Mu Zhiyuan came out and said: "Your Majesty don't worry, King Qin will not act rashly if he cares about Lord Yun's life." ”
The emperor knew that he said that Situ Jing would not easily send troops to attack Huarong, but he felt sorry for his son, his son had just escaped from Huarong, and now it was clear that he was going to Huarong to wade into troubled waters, how could a courtier let a prince take risks for him, he was angry, but there was no way, the emperor slapped the dragon chair, "scattered the dynasty", and sooner or later made these sons angry to death.
