Chapter 46: Missing Like a Horse

The aggrieved emperor Xu really wanted to prove his innocence and ignorance in front of Cheng Jingxi, seeing that she didn't eat oil and salt, Cheng Jingheng suddenly became angry and relieved: "I sent someone to save, save!" ”

Cheng Jingxi's head was still on the ground, and when the voice came out, it seemed as if something was separated, "Your Majesty, how to save it, who will you send to save it?" ”

"My Shadow Guard!"

Cheng Jingxi's clenched teeth slowly loosened, and she took a light breath, she tasted a smell of blood, "Jingxi, thank you Emperor." ”

"I'm tired," Cheng Jingheng rubbed his eyebrows, "If the imperial sister has nothing else to do, let's go!" ”

"Yes, Jing Xi retired."

"Grandpa Gao!" Cheng Jingheng shouted out in a raised voice.

"The minions are here!"

"Send the princess out of the palace."

"Yes!"

Cheng Jingheng's angry face continued until Gonggong Gao carefully closed the door, and then gradually regained his expressionlessness, looked down at the waste rice paper on the table, grabbed it and clenched it in the palm of his hand, and tightened it.

He never dared to think that although it was inevitable, he and the imperial sister had gradually drifted apart since three years ago, and now they even need to set up a stage to perform absurdly when they meet.

You come and go, and you don't have any sincerity.

Cheng Jingheng quietly looked directly in front of him, his eyes were dark, and he smiled for a while.

Wonder is the daughter of ignorance.

Cheng Jingxi walked outside the palace with the old eunuch Gao Gonggong, and the old eunuch Xu heard some movements in the study, although he didn't dare to really listen to the content inside, but he was able to say something that could not be offended at both ends.

So he bowed slightly and whispered next to Cheng Jingxi: "The courtiers have been singing against the emperor in the court for the past few days, and the emperor's mood is not very good. ”

Cheng Jingxi turned his words around in his mind, and asked quietly: "The emperor was angry in the early dynasty?" ”

"No!" Gao Gong said, "Recently, the court and the central government have somehow found out a number of corrupt officials, but there are not too many officials, but since there are moths, they have to be prevented, the emperor ordered a thorough investigation, and this investigation has suddenly vacated a number of positions, and the ministers almost tore their faces and squeezed their heads because of these vacant seats, and everyone wants to send people inside, and no one is willing to take a step back." ”

"Then the emperor knew that I was coming, what was his reaction?"

Father-in-law Gao looked around cautiously, and then peeked at Cheng Jingxi, and then said as if he had made up his mind: "Princess, don't go to your heart, the emperor will be angry with the ministers, Xu Yes...... Xu is heart knows that the princess will not bring any good words at this moment...... Just ......"

"Just what?"

"I robbed my father-in-law and threw it away!"

Cheng Jingxi's footsteps paused slightly, and the old eunuch who followed on the side didn't notice it, she turned to continue walking out as usual, but her mind was rapidly integrating everything that had just happened.

She has been eager to force Cheng Jingheng to save people, so she did not hesitate to dare to challenge his bottom line, Cheng Jingheng was naturally furious, and she was desperate to poke at his bottom line, Cheng Jingheng continued to burn her anger for no reason, and then let her achieve her goal.

But Cheng Jingheng has always been a moody person, since he was a child, and even more so after he ascended the throne.

Cheng Jingxi was bent on achieving her goal, so she ignored this most crucial point.

Gao Gonggong said that the emperor was angry with the ministers in the court, which she didn't believe very much, and he lost his temper on the spot when he heard her arrival, although it seemed reasonable, but it was debatable if it happened to Cheng Jingheng.

It seems that since Gonggong Gao brought the news of her coming, whether or not she can achieve the purpose of entering the palace today is no longer a variable, but an inevitable ending unhurriedly following a specific track.

In the dark, she seemed to be led forward by Cheng Jingheng, and forced him with his plausible cooperation, making him feel that he was the most innocent and innocent, so that he could help himself to send her husband back.

Although he didn't admit it himself, he indirectly told her that the thousand elite soldiers were indeed not good.

Cheng Jingxi's heart was cold while thinking, she looked at her father-in-law Gao who was low-eyebrowed and obedient on the side, and countless speculations flashed in her heart for a while, the latter raised her arched body slightly as if she had noticed, and Cheng Jingxi quickly retracted her gaze.

It's scary.

She thought to herself.

When walking back in the carriage, Cheng Jingxi opened the curtain again and secretly looked out, wanting to see the bustle in the market twice, but he didn't expect to see Gu Boyan again.

There was also a woman with him.

The woman was slender, tall, with long black and straight hair, an emerald green dress and a plain cloak on the outside, and at first glance she should be a very elegant and delicate person.

The two walked side by side, about two paces apart.

Her carriage was newly bought, and there was no sign of the Shuaifu on it, so Gu Boyan didn't recognize it, but he didn't have the heart to look at the inconsequential place at this time.

He took the girl and walked in one direction without time, as if he was going to catch something, Cheng Jingxi looked back at the straight street where it might lead, and felt that the place that could make Gu Boyan look like this was probably only within the palace walls.

He brought this girl into the palace?

The carriage and Gu Boyan walked in the opposite direction, the distance gradually widened, the girl seemed to have a sense, and while maintaining her speed, she suddenly turned around and hurriedly glanced over, whether she saw it clearly is not known, anyway, Cheng Jingxi saw her face clearly.

It's beautiful.

I don't know why, Cheng Jingxi's heart panicked, and the carriage also pressed on the stone at this time, shaking heavily.

But the horse pulling the cart didn't know if it was the wrong medicine or what, and suddenly went crazy in a flash, neighing all the way and running wildly, and the driver couldn't pull it.

Seeing that he was about to hit the child standing in the middle of the road, a man suddenly jumped out from the side, quickly picked up the frightened child away, and then jumped into the carriage, and grabbed the horse's head with his own strength, the horse was still neighing in pain, and rushed forward out of control, and the vendors on both sides of the road showed frightened looks.

The man probably thought that if he continued like this, he might cause the horse to turn on his back, so he immediately took out the dagger at his waist and plunged it into the horse's belly, and the horse immediately stumbled forward, and then knelt on both knees with both front legs.

Cheng Jingxi rushed forward by inertia, but Kankan was pulled by someone before falling, avoiding an unnecessary disaster.

"Thank you for rescuing ......," Cheng Jingxi, who was dizzy and nauseated, thanked him with difficulty.

"No, you don't." The man left without even leaving his name.

Cheng Jingxi didn't have time to see what the man looked like.

It is not far from home on the left and right, Cheng Jingxi simply covered her face with a veil and walked back, leaving the family to deal with it in the same place.

And when she sat down in front of the mirror, she realized that the hairpin on her head was unconsciously gone.

Ye Huaiyu treated the wound by himself, but because it was too hasty, the wound became inflamed, and he had a high fever until the afternoon of the third day.

Zhang Daniu hung his two arms to discuss with him, "Why don't you connect my arms first?" Otherwise, if you keep doing this, who will I go to if I die? ”

"You do something for me." Ye Huaiyu's face was pale and his lips were chapped.

"What's the matter?"

Ye Huaiyu said: "Go to the official mansion and borrow someone." ”

"Borrowing whom?" Zhang Daniu reacted, if it weren't for the conditions that didn't allow him to almost jump up, "You let Lao Tzu go to the official mansion?" Lao Tzu hung a portrait in the official mansion! ”

"You are now recruited by me," Ye Huaiyu drew a big cake for him, "When you finish the matter for me, I will naturally tell the government the truth about your merits and demerits." ”

Zhang Daniu said very backbonely: "Lao Tzu doesn't want to be recruited by you, and you don't give Lao Tzu money, do you have gold bars?" There are gold bars, I don't need you to talk to the government, you don't need to! ”

Ye Huaiyu saw that he looked like a hob, and it was clear that he felt that he was seriously ill and couldn't control him, so he began to be dishonest here.

"To go or not?"

"Don't go ......"

Before Zhang Daniu's spine-filled "don't go" was finished, Ye Huaiyu made a flower between his wrists and put it on his neck accurately, and the sharp blade seemed to be scratched at a glance, "Do you think I can't kill you?" ”

In addition to having backbone, Zhang Daniu is also very familiar with current affairs, and when he saw this, he hurriedly changed his words and said: "...... I won't go in vain! Get the knife out of the way! ”

Ye Huaiyu snorted coldly and raised his chin, "Go." ”

"Then my arm ......"

"Get out of here!" Seeing that he rolled out according to his words, Ye Huaiyu said again, "Don't try to play tricks, if you run away, your accomplices won't let you live well!" ”

As soon as he mentioned this Zhang Daniu, he was angry, "Lao Tzu is going to run away and run away in a morning, why are you fooling around here?" ”

As soon as the person left, Ye Huaiyu's face immediately turned cold, he looked up at the window, his hand tightly grasped the handle of the knife, and said loudly: "Don't hide, come out!" ”

As soon as the words fell, someone turned over and jumped out of the window and stood in front of Ye Huaiyu.

"Who are you?"

The person who came hugged his fists and said, "The subordinates were originally ordered to protect the princess, and they were assigned by the princess to protect the three young people. ”

Ye Huaiyu was puzzled in his heart, and said vigilantly: "How can I trust you?" ”

The man took out a silver hairpin from his chest and handed it to Ye Huaiyu.

Ye Huaiyu rubbed the lines on it, remembering that this was indeed something that Cheng Jingxi often wore, "You said that you were ordered to protect the princess, but I have never seen you." ”

"The princess also didn't know, it was the princess who was almost attacked a few days ago, and her subordinates chose to take action."

Ye Huaiyu's heart sank, "Attacked? ”

"Indeed," said the man, "the princess's carriage has been tampered with, and while on the way she has suddenly gone insane, and if she had not acted in time, she would have been seriously wounded." ”

Ye Huaiyu's heart was beating when he heard this, but now Cheng Jingxi was not in front of him, so he could only put aside all inquiries for the time being and wait until he went home.

"She asked you to protect me?"

She was alone in the capital, she didn't stay in the Shuai Mansion honestly, what did she do when she ran out? What did she find out about it, and she even sent guards to protect him?

Ye Huaiyu looked at the person in front of him, and a series of questions suddenly died down. Maybe he asks him anything, and he can choose to say he doesn't know.

"To be exact, let the subordinates help the three less." The man said, "Actually, Sanshao doesn't need to distrust his subordinates, with Sanshao's current state, he can only deceive the fool who just went out, if he really does it, it will not be effortless." ”

Ye Huaiyu's face changed slightly, and the knife in his hand was about to come out.

The man smiled lightly, "Ye Shao doesn't believe it, you can try it." ”

Ye Huaiyu stared at him tightly for a long time, and his fingers loosened, "If you are a liar, I can also take your life at any time." ”

The man was noncommittal, looked outside, and asked him, "That person just now won't come back, will he?" ”

Ye Huaiyu nodded, "After he goes out, he can find someone to take his arm back, and he will definitely not go to the government to throw himself into the net, I just don't want to keep him." ”

"But he wants to kill Ye Shao."

Ye Huaiyu said: "It's just an order, you can also see that he doesn't have any brains," he paused and said, "What do you mean by coming to help me?" ”

"Literally," said the man, "the princess knows that the third young man is in trouble here, so she has sent me over to help complete the task so that I can return to the court as soon as possible." ”

Ye Huaiyu was silent.

He began to wonder who had sent this man.

It's just that his situation is not very good at the moment, except for this person who took the initiative to send him to the door, there is no one else available, and this person still has Cheng Jingxi's commonly used hairpin in his hand.

Although it may also be stolen.

But he had to choose to believe.

"Can you find the bandit?"

The man said, "The subordinates have their own methods, and the people who often walk outside are better than the young master...... The road is much wider. ”

There is no need to guess Ye Huaiyu also knows what he didn't say, and he didn't compare his words with him, after pondering for a moment, he said: "The bandits have a den in the south......

Before he finished speaking, a ** medicine and a few pills were suddenly stuffed into his arms, Ye Huaiyu looked up in astonishment, and the man said: "This is the best medicine configured by the best doctor in the capital, Ye Shao used it first, rest well tonight, and I will come over early tomorrow morning." ”

After the word "you" was finished, the man had already gone out of the window and was nowhere to be seen.

Ye Huaiyu was deeply thoughtful, looked up at the direction outside the window, and suddenly felt a little anxious.

He's only been gone for four days, what did she meet in the capital?

Have you ever been bullied?

But she's so smart, and she thinks she's the one who only makes others suffer.

In just a few days, it is difficult to idle my heart when I am constantly running around, and now I have nothing to do, and my thoughts about her fill my heart in an instant, and I can't bear it.

After external application and internal administration, Ye Huaiyu's fever gradually subsided at night, and the next morning, except for the fact that his head was still a little dizzy, the wound did not feel pain.

And the so-called guards really came early in the morning, and they led two horses out of nowhere, and when they saw that he was fine, they immediately set off for the stockade and galloped away.
