Chapter 178: Doubts Resolved
An Jun was frightened because he suffered a loss in the Xiangwang Mansion, and someone in the palace sneaked in to steal the heavy treasure, so he was angry with the forbidden army and wanted to count and reprimand.
This matter actually sounded very reasonable, and it was no wonder that it didn't immediately attract Qin Xi's attention.
"The day before yesterday, before I got up early in the morning, there was a message from a carrier pigeon, and I received another letter before you, also from the palace. Changsun Yan sent three Shang and post to the three kingdoms of Huaning Shang, and I heard that there happened to be a lot of ministers in the court that day, so I had a preconceived idea that this was not Changsun Yan's idea. Moreover, I immediately ordered the letters sent to Ning and Shang to be intercepted, and when I checked them in the evening, I found that only Shang He's wishes were mentioned.
However, what makes me very concerned now is that the letter sent to China seems to have been intercepted by others before our people could intercept it. And I now suspect that the person who intercepted the letter to China before me was Rong Xi. Yuran turned over and dismounted, and after thinking about it, she narrowed her eyes and opened her lips.
"Your Highness thinks that today's move may have something to do with that letter." Qin Xi also dismounted with Yu Ran, he said with certainty.
"Moreover, it seems that Eldest Sun Yan has indeed been able to toss recently, I must have missed something." Yu Ran twisted his eyebrows, his eyes were closed, and he shook his head in a rare annoyance.
These things are certainly connected, but what is missing?
The eldest grandson Yan counted the forbidden army, the letters sent to the Three Kingdoms, the letters that might have been robbed by Rong Xi, and Rong Xi wanted to send her away......
Yuran's right hand was tightly gripping the reins, and if it weren't for the fact that there were several layers of gauze wrapped in the palm of his hand, Yuran's nails would probably be embedded in the flesh.
It's just that before Yu Ran finished thinking about it, Su Jiu came back.
"Your Highness!" Su Jiu shouted hurriedly.
Yu Ran looked up suddenly, she saw Su Jiu turn over and dismount, but she found that Su Jiu's shirt was torn in many places, and the torn part of the shirt on her left arm seemed to have been scratched flesh and blood, and blood overflowed and stained her dark green clothes.
"What's going on?" Yu Ran asked in a deep voice.
"Your Highness, for some reason, it seems that the forbidden army has begun to arrive at the city gate, as if there is a blockade and investigation. I was already cautious when I went over, but when I came back, I ran into two secret guards who were supposed to be sent by Murong Raid, and if I got out directly, I would definitely be caught up by them, so I had to deal with it and come back. On the way back, I carefully observed in the shadows, and found that the forbidden army that had been patrolling had suddenly increased, and began to garrison all over the streets of the city, and should soon be here as well. Su Jiu said worriedly.
When Jade Ran heard this, the light under her eyes became brighter and brighter, but it was completely different from the usual sense of agility, but it was a little sharp and heavy, "I know, I finally know......" she muttered.
"Your Highness?" Su Jiu was puzzled.
Qin Xi also reacted at this moment, "This was specially arranged by Eldest Sun Yan to block His Highness and Rong Xi." ”
"I didn't think it was going to happen." Yu Ran's eyes drooped slightly, and he said intently: "Hua Jun knows that if he sends someone over directly, he can't really bring Rong Xi back, so he secretly communicates with Changsun Yan, he must have promised Changsun Yan to exchange benefits, and then taught Changsun Yan to use these trivial excuses to stitch together to count and dispatch the forbidden army, the purpose is to prevent Rong Yan and I from finding out at the first moment."
"Hua Jun deliberately sent Hua Jun to suppress the realm at this time, that is, he wanted to force me to show up, as long as I no longer hid in the dark, and Rong Xi also appeared in the light for me, then his purpose was achieved. I'm afraid that Rong Xi discovered this secret when he intercepted the letter sent back to Ning by Changsun Yan, so he asked Qin Xi to arrange it and send me back to Ning. ”
"Your Highness, we have to leave quickly, if we leave now, there are not many forbidden troops guarding the city gate, even if we are discovered, we can gather the people of the Red Moon Pavilion to forcibly send His Highness out of the capital. As long as the capital is out, a large part of the troops stationed in other cities are under the jurisdiction of King Xiang and will not participate, and An Jun will not have time to give orders out of the city. Su Jiu had been guarding the side, and she returned to Yu Ran at this moment, frowning and saying.
After hearing this, Yuran was rarely silent. She lowered her eyes, no one knew the gloom under her eyes, she pursed her lips, only to feel that her palms were cold, and her whole body gradually lost its temperature little by little.
Tolerant ......
The first thing that came to her mind was not how she was going to get out of the city, but the name of the person.
"His Highness is not an ordinary person, and Rong Xi is also very human, since His Highness has always believed in him, why did he not believe in him again this time? This matter was originally Rong Xi's arrangement, so he should be more aware of Hua Jun's plan. Qin Xi knew why Yuran was hesitant, but whether it was out of selfishness or out of consideration for a person with a unique identity like Yuran, he thought that Yuran must leave Anguo now and not postpone.
"Yes, Qin Gongzi is right. Your Highness, you just like Rong Gongzi no matter how much you like it, and you must not go back now. At that time, if the forbidden army of the capital and Huajun's people are there, it will be difficult for us to get out, just like the last time we were outside the border city of Anguo. Su Jiu also felt that he really couldn't delay any longer.
Yu Ran had just cleared his mind here, and Rong Xian couldn't stop there.
"Childe, it's almost dawn." Xiu Ziqi drove the carriage and turned back to Rong Xi in the carriage and said.
"Just stop by the bridge in front of you." The slender knuckles gently lifted the bed curtain, leaving a small gap.
"Yes." The repair period responded.
It was getting lighter, and Rong Ying, dressed in white and wearing an inky cloak on the outside, was helped down from the carriage by Xiu Ziqi, and then slowly walked to the stone bridge.
In front of him was a small river, and a stone bridge was erected over the river, and behind the stone bridge was a grove that stretched all the way to a hill, which should be considered the most remote part of the capital.
Rong Xi's footsteps lifted lightly, and he took two steps to the stone bridge, and his hand was gently on the edge of the bridge.
His expression looked peaceful, his gaze was far away, and there was no focus, but his eyebrows and eyes softened a little.
This place is the place where Yuran and Changsun Wanran were hunted down and killed with Changsun Rui last time, and it was here that he rescued Yuran who fell under the bridge.
"Childe, they're coming." Xiu Ziqi frowned, walked to Rong Xi's side and whispered.
"I see." Rong Xi said mildly.
"Childe, if there is any situation later, please allow us to send Childe away first." Condense the way of the gods during the cultivation period.
"Murong Qi just wants me to go back to Huaguo, as long as there is no reason to trap me, he can't help me, and he can't even let me stay in Huagong all the time. So even if my plan doesn't work out, even if I do go back, it's okay. "The attitude of tolerance is natural. After all, in his opinion, the power of Huaguo is now divided, and both parties above the court are uncertain. Even if he returned to China, it only brought him closer to the center of power.
Moreover, Rong Xi was sure that Hua Jun could not kill him now. Huajun has a total of six princes and eight princesses. This is just a second prince who has just gone crazy, if Hua Jun kills the fourth prince again, this will really be discussed by the world. Moreover, almost half of Huaguo's forces were gradually absorbed by Rong Xi, and if Hua Jun made a move at this moment, it would only increase civil strife.
What's more, there is the most important point.
Rong Xi couldn't help but feel a little deeper in his eyes when he thought of this, he already knew this, but he never wanted to stab it directly in front of Hua Jun. But if it was directly pierced, he understood that this could indeed shake Hua Jun, but it could also shake his heart.
This has to talk about the Hua royal family, the crown prince Murong Lin in the Hua royal family is cowardly by nature, but he is serious and peaceful, so even if Hua Jun doesn't like it too much, he will not be disgusted; The second prince Murong Qi's mother is Concubine Jing, originally Concubine Jing was just a concubine when she gave birth to Murong Qi, because Murong Qi's face is very good, and he is said to have a luxurious appearance, which is very similar to Huajun, so Huajun is happy, when Murong Qi was born, Huajun asked him to take the name "Qi", which is the same as the name of Huajun, but he is irritable and timid, but now he is deeply driven crazy by Yuran's plan, and can only live in the palace; The third prince and the sixth prince were born by the queen, but Queen Hua died of illness very early, and then Hua Jun fell in love with Concubine Jing, and the two princes were not brilliant, so Hua Jun didn't care; And the fourth prince, Murong Xi, that is, Rong Xi, is the son of Hua Jun's biggest headache.
Rong Xi's biological mother, Shi Shan Xueyuan, was the righteous sister recognized by Emperor Zhuan when he was young, her appearance is not an ordinary woman's delicateness, but more heroic, she is empathetic, and she is a person who knows how to give advice. But she could see Emperor Zhuan's ambition and cruelty, so she never wanted to be used by him, and she never showed her insight in front of him. Shi Shanxue was willing to marry Huaguo, and she didn't want to marry as a princess, but just marry as an ordinary person.
She became Hua Jun's Mei Concubine, although Hua Jun had a grudge against Ming Xu, but when Shan Xue first entered the Hua Palace, he attracted Hua Jun's attention with a sword dance in the plum blossoms of Rui Xue, but the sword at that time was just a plum tree branch, so later Hua Jun specially ordered someone to create a light and beautiful long sword for her. Shi Shanxue's intelligence and wisdom finally allowed Hua Jun to dispel all his dissatisfaction with this Concubine Mei, and Shi Shanxue also fell in love with Hua Jun's calm forbearance, she began to plan for Hua Jun, and gave birth to Rong Xi the next year.
At that time, an incident happened, and Emperor Zhuan knew that Shanxue helped Hua Jun fight against Mingxu, causing a commotion. Emperor Zhuan was secretly furious because of this, thinking that Shi Shanxue betrayed him, so he personally set up a game for Shi Shanxue, so that Hua Jun thought that Shi Shanxue was also secretly colluding with Emperor Zhuan, Hua Jun began to distrust Shi Shanxue, and only the Jing Concubine who was good friends on weekdays would come to see her from time to time, and the long-term snub made Shi Shanxue finally understand - it turned out that the thin coldness of the king's heart could be better than all other friendships.
