Chapter 246: Return
Yes, I don't know if this guy didn't take last night's events in his eyes at all, or if his mentality is too good, and he is not easy to be moved by the things around him, but although there is nothing bad about this guy's free and easy warmth, it is annoying that this guy is more difficult than everyone.
"It doesn't matter. If Donglin Gongzi finds a way out, he will go to Chujing on his own, and there is no need to return to inform the palace. Bengong and Shan Zhongze, after resting for a while, may be able to get out of the forest, and the prince of Donglin does not have to worry. ”
Dong Lincang didn't speak, just looked at Chao Sihan with a gentle and soft voice.
After waiting for a long time, Sihan forcibly pressed his mind and said in a low voice: "Since the prince of Donglin insists on walking with the palace, without further ado, then let's go." ”
As soon as these words fell, he didn't bother to watch his reaction, just glanced at Shan Zhongze, and then randomly chose the direction in which the man in black went last night.
Dong Lincang slowly followed behind him, and said leisurely: "The eldest princess is not feeling unwell at this time?" ”
His soft voice was slightly teasing and slightly interesting.
Sihan said lightly: "It's bearable." ”
"How's that? It's not good to endure, and the road ahead is bumpy, if not, help the eldest princess below. ”
Although these words have to be aroused, Dong Lincang's voice is really soft and appropriate, how can there be a little obscene and courteous.
It's just that Shan Zhongze couldn't stand it anymore, and immediately said: "Don't bother Donglin Gongzi, my princess, I'll help you." ”
After speaking, he took the initiative to put his arm around Sihan.
Sihan didn't refuse, let alone speak, just walked forward calmly and calmly, although the surface was extremely calm, but the guard in the bottom of his heart was not relaxed.
All the way forward, the surrounding jungle is dense and slightly eerie.

After speaking, he took the initiative to put his arm around Sihan.
Sihan didn't refuse, let alone speak, just walked forward calmly and calmly, although the surface was extremely calm, but the guard in the bottom of his heart was not relaxed.
All the way forward, the surrounding jungle is dense and slightly eerie.
The fog in the woods had dispersed considerably, but the farther along, the smell of blood in the air became stronger.
Sihan frowned, and his stomach was extremely disgusted by the smell of blood.
In a moment, Dong Lincang suddenly handed over a handkerchief, and when Sihan watched him on guard, he said with a serious face: "Don't worry, eldest princess." This is just an ordinary handkerchief, if it harms the eldest princess's heart, it will not be so bothered. ”
As soon as these words fell, he smiled softly.
The disgusting feeling in his heart swelled more and more, and in desperation, Sihan finally took his handkerchief and covered his mouth and nose, but between breaths, he felt that there was a special incense on this handkerchief, and when he inhaled it into his nose, it was so cool that not only the churning and nausea in his stomach disappeared instantly, but even the dizziness and swelling of his head were quickly reduced.
People who have heard of the British are extremely mysterious, and now that they see, this rumor is indeed true.
This time is just an east of the sky, it is already a mysterious anomaly, deep and difficult to understand, it is indeed not to be underestimated, if the British really intend to conquer the countries of the world, it is not difficult.
At this point, Sihan's face changed slightly, and he only said that although this Donglincang said that he came to watch the birthday banquet of the king of Chu at random to increase his knowledge, whether this statement is true or not remains to be studied. Moreover, the group of black-clothed people last night obviously used poison, and even Shan Zhongze and Lan Yeyu couldn't resist, and their bodies were weak, and where did they get the strength to jump onto the big tree adjacent to her and stay overnight?
Could it be that the people of Daying are so miraculous that they still have the ability to resist poison, and they can still have the strength to jump into the tree under the effect of soft tendons?
The more I thought about it, the more I felt that there was something different, and I couldn't help it, and Sihan's gaze on Donglin's face was also a little deeper.
"Why does the eldest princess mean by looking at her like this?"
Xu was aware of Si Han's scrutiny, and Dong Lincang suddenly raised his eyes, and his gaze happened to be right with Si Han.
Sihan's pupils shrank, and then he pretended to look away naturally, and was about to speak, but his eyes swept forward at will, and he saw that there were several bloody corpses on the side of the road not far away.
Instantly, her expression tightened, and when she reached her mouth, she suddenly choked.
When he stepped forward slowly, when he walked to the corpse, he looked at it so closely, only to see that the corpses were missing arms and legs, the flesh and blood were blurred, and even the corpses were lying in a very strange and hideous posture, with round eyes, dead and unblind, gloomy and gloomy, giving people a very hideous and cautious feeling.
She took a deep breath and looked away.
Dong Lincana's calm voice came slowly, "The arms and legs of these people were bitten off by wolves. ”
Sihan said lightly: "The hungry wolf is fierce, and it is natural to lack arms and legs. It's just that, listening to the words of those men in black last night, it was like a hungry wolf they deliberately released, but I don't know who the masters of those men in black are, who will be so ruthless that they will kill innocents, and they are not afraid of retribution in the future. ”
As soon as these words fell, he turned his eyes and stared at him with deep eyes.
The corners of Donglincang's eyes were slightly raised, "The eldest princess is looking at her like this, isn't she suspicious?" ”
said, smiling slightly, "Zai Xia is also a victim, and last night when I panicked and fled, the few entourages below were also gone." ”
"Last night, the group of black-clothed people undoubtedly used soft tendons, even the palace, Shan Zhongze and the regent were all hit, I don't know, why Donglin Gongzi still has the strength to climb trees."
"When people are at the end of their rope, no matter how powerless they are, they will desperately find a way. The eldest princess didn't need to suspect anything, she was also weak last night, and after climbing the tree, she was already depressed and couldn't move. ”
Is it?
When these words came into his ears, Sihan was skeptical, but he didn't say much after all.
She turned around again, and moved forward without saying a word, and Donglin Cang didn't say anything more, just slowly followed behind, with a smooth and proper pace, and there was nothing abnormal.
Along the way, the smell of blood was still extremely strong, and everywhere around, there were also corpses slanted, hideous and terrifying, as if it was a mass grave, giving people a very eerie and hideous feeling.
Sihan forcibly endured the discomfort in his heart, and then got rid of Shan Zhongze's support, and walked faster and faster.
She had no idea what was going on, so she had to run through the woods, and as she had been walking for a long time, her legs began to ache and she walked more and more slowly.
Until, when the sun was high above his head, and Sihan's whole body was weak and unbearable, Sihan and a few people finally reached the edge of the forest.
In front of the forest, a winding official road had appeared.
Sihan's pupils shrank, and he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
Dong Lincang said slowly: "The eldest princess is so powerful, it only took half a day, and she actually got out of the forest." ”
His voice was soft and gentle, as if there was no panting and weakness, Sihan glanced back at him, his eyes swept around his smiling face, but he didn't pay attention to it in his heart, just turned back and continued to walk forward slowly.
On this official road, there are also a lot of bloodstains, and there are still oblique and hideous corpses around it.
Maybe it's because I've seen too many corpses, because my heart has long been numb, and there are no longer great ups and downs in my look or mood.
Sihan just gritted his teeth and continued to move forward, but after walking for a long time, he heard a thick and messy sound of horses' hooves suddenly in the distance ahead.
In an instant, she was caught off guard for a moment, but at this moment, Dong Lincang behind her immediately spoke, "I don't know who is coming, the eldest princess, hide quickly." ”
As soon as these words fell, Sihan suddenly came back to his senses, and immediately hid in the bushes on the side of the road with Dong Lincang and Shan Zhongze.
But soon, the sound of the galloping horses' hooves got closer and closer, and looking through the gaps in the bushes and leaves in front of them, he could clearly see that the person who was riding the horse was Xiao Lou.
At this time, he was ragged and muddy, but his face was black and dirty, and he still had the glamorous appearance of the day.
"It's the second prince of Da Chu. Pick-up"
At this moment, Dong Lincang beside him whispered, and in an instant, his body moved, and he suddenly stood up.
Sihan's heart jumped, and it was too late to reach out to pull him, so he could only stare at him with complicated and angry eyes, but he seemed to notice her scrutiny, and he lowered his eyes to meet her eyes, smiling softly, "I thought I was going to walk back to Chujing this time, but I didn't expect to meet the second prince of Chu, so the eldest princess and Zai Xia could go back by horse." ”
He spoke very calmly and gently, and his tone seemed to be sincere and earnest, and there was nothing unusual about him.
Sihan frowned, his anger fluctuated, and he didn't know if this Donglincang was really stupid or fake! Last night's events were clearly extremely dangerous, who was the murderer behind the scenes was not clear, it was at this time that we must be cautious and cautious, no one should be gullible, but now it is good, this Dong Lin Cang stood up so suddenly, instantly exposing him and her to people, if that Xiao Lou is really uneasy and kind, she and Dong Lin Cang Xu have to experience another fight.
The sound of the horse's hooves is getting closer.
It was only a moment when Xiao Lou's leader stopped in front of the bushes in front of Sihan.
"Donglin Childe?"
Seeing that the east is here, Xiao Lou was also slightly surprised, but in the bottom of his heart, he was more relieved.
Last night was chased by wolves, ambushed by men and horses, he finally managed to escape from the encirclement, before entering the gate of Chujing, he saw the palace guards all out of the city, to inquire, only to know that last night's incident had already been passed into the palace, his father knew that the people of the countries had an accident, Long Wei was furious, and said that he Xiao Lou would completely take back the heads of the countries, there must be no mistake, if there is any damage to the heads of the countries, only he Xiao Lou is asked.
When he heard this order, he was also extremely helpless, and his anxiety was also shocked in the bottom of his heart.
He shouldn't have taken the initiative to ask Ying to take charge of the hunting in these countries! I never expected that someone would do it in the hunting ground, so rampant on his Xiao Lou's territory. He never even imagined that there would be someone who would have the audacity to wipe out the people of all nations on the hunting ground, and that his heart was ruthless and his ambition was monstrous.
But now that the situation is undone, it is irreparable, and even he can't imagine that if the people of all countries are really completely killed in this hunt, what a crisis and catastrophe this will be for Da Chu.
This time he rode his horse, his heart was completely hanged, and he was so nervous that it was difficult to get it anymore, and now he saw that the British Donglincang suddenly stood in front of him, this feeling was undoubtedly like a trace of sweetness obtained after a great fright, abrupt and intense.
"Is Donglin Gongzi okay?" He hurriedly forced his attention and asked again in a tight voice.
Dong Lincang smiled lightly and calmly, "It's naturally okay down there." It's just that the eldest princess of Tanglin was frightened all night, and she was tired. ”
Xiao Lou's expression trembled suddenly, his eyes swept towards the bushes, and he hurriedly began to search for Sihan's figure.
Dong Lincang saw it in his eyes, lowered his eyes and smiled softly at Sihan, "The eldest princess of Donglin should get up quickly, if you want to come to the paddock and have an accident, the second prince should be in a hurry, and now if you can see with your own eyes that the eldest princess is also fine, she will be able to breathe a sigh of relief." ”
This is said softly and gently, but it is undoubtedly betraying Sihan and exposing her completely in front of people.
Sihan's face was slightly cold, and he really didn't have any good feelings about this Donglincang in his heart.
After being silent for a moment, she glanced at Shan Zhongze beside her, and when she stood up, she saw Xiao Lou's face pale, but her expression trembled suddenly, and then she breathed a long sigh of relief, "Last night was dangerous, fortunately, the eldest princess of Tanglin was also fine." ”
As he spoke, the conversation changed, "There are carriages and horses in the rear, and Princess Wangchang and Donglin Gongzi will ride back to the city first." At the gate of the city, there are also people who answer, and when the time comes, they will take the two of them back to the palace to rest. ”
Sihan and Dong Lincang did not delay, immediately walked slowly towards the carriage behind, and just sat down in the carriage, they heard the sound of horses' hooves and quickly moved away, and when Sihan lifted the curtain and looked, he saw that Xiao Lou had led Chu Wei away, leaving a few horse guards to guard the side of the carriage, as if to send her and Dong Lincang back to Chujing.
Sihan's pupils shrank, his expression was complicated and unbearable, and when he came back to his senses, his fingertips just lowered the curtain, and he heard Donglin Cangdao: "The second prince of Great Chu may be frightened, last night's incident is undoubtedly a great responsibility, presumably the second prince of Great Chu has found the people of all countries back, and the king of Chu will definitely not spare the second prince." ”
Is it?
In this way, this Donglincang can see Xiao Lou clearly?
Sihan's expression moved slightly, he didn't speak, his thoughts flipped and swayed for a moment, but he also felt that his words were extremely reasonable.
Yesterday's hunting, Xiao Lou was responsible for accompaniment, and now that this happened, Xiao Lou is very responsible, but ......
Although Donglin Gongzi's words are reasonable, these are just speculations. Or, in case last night's incident was secretly ordered by the King of Chu to destroy the people of all countries, in this way, Xiao Lou did not have a fault, but a meritorious! Even, Fang Donglin Gongzi suddenly stood up from the bushes, undoubtedly a little reckless, if Xiao Lou really had bad intentions and wanted to lead people back to shoot and kill those who slipped through the net, in this way, wouldn't Donglin Gongzi and the palace be killed? ”
Dong Lincang chuckled, "But in the end, the second prince of Da Chu did not kill the eldest princess in Xia. ”
Sihan choked and didn't reply.
"Although I am not a person who is an important person of the country, I can see some things clearly. No matter how bold the king of Chu is, he resolutely does not dare to kill the people of the countries on the territory of the Great Chu, so as to make enemies with the countries. Even if you really want to kill, you naturally have to wait until the countries leave Chu Jing, or shoot them on the way back, so that you can also get rid of suspicion for Chu State. ”
said, chuckling, "Thinking about what happened last night, it should be unexpected by King Chu." Coincidentally, today is the birthday of the King of Chu, so I don't know if anyone will participate in the Hongmen banquet of the King of Chu. If the people of all countries were really dead or injured, the king of Chu should be anxious and heartbroken and restless on his birthday.
Sihan lowered his eyes quietly, listened to himself, and did not speak immediately.
After waiting for a while, she said in a low voice: "Donglin Gongzi has great insights. This palace wants to ask, according to the intention of Donglin Gongzi, who should be behind last night's incident? ”
As soon as these words fell, Sihan turned his eyes, and his silent and complicated gaze stared straight at him.
His face was calm and warm, but his pupils were suddenly half far away, and after a while, he came back to his senses and smiled softly at Sihan, "I don't know." But last night's incident was extremely critical to the Chu State, and it was not beneficial at all, and even the fire in the Crescent Moon Hall of the Eldest Princess the night before was extremely unhelpful to the Great Chu. ”
Murder, people of the Chu State?
These words came into his ears, and Sihan couldn't help but spin and speculate on these last few words in his heart.
Also, whether it is the fire in the Crescent Moon Hall or the hideous killing last night, these things come one after another, and they are undoubtedly not good for Da Chu. From this point of view, Da Chu set his sights on the countries and set up a Hongmen banquet on a special trip, but at the same time, there were also people who were eyeing Da Chu and wantonly making trouble at this special time.
Looking at it like this, she doesn't seem to need to be too anxious because of the banquet of the king of Chu, but because of this, the king of Chu is afraid that he is already anxious, and the so-called Hongmen banquet is afraid that he has no heart to prepare.
The more I think about it, the more distant and heavy my mind becomes.
Sihan pretended to be natural and lowered his eyes, his expression was complicated, and he didn't say anything after all.
The carriage was bumping all the way forward, and the speed was extremely fast. On the way, there was no one to stop the ambush, as if those people in black last night had really disappeared without a trace, and they would not really come to stop her and Dong Lincang and other fish that slipped through the net.
When he arrived at the gate of Chu Jingcheng, Chu Wei immediately led the car forward, and escorted Sihan and Donglincang's carriage and horses to the outside of the palace very rigorously.
By the time I got off the carriage, the hour had already passed three poles, and the sun above me was already slightly scorching.
After entering the palace gate, Sihan and Dong Lincang exchanged two words at will, and ran away, and after returning to Surabaya, Sihan didn't have time to freshen up, and went straight to the side hall where Lan Yeyu lived, and when the door of the side hall was opened, he saw that the hall was empty, and Lan Yeyu had never returned.
