Chapter 268: The Gaze in Front of the Jingshi
There were not too many difficulties on the way back to Hangzhou, Yue Shaoan also felt it, Wan Yan Man did not pursue them, and did not even order to intercept them in the middle of the road, this is good news, of course, not only because there are many fewer dangers, all these signs indicate that Wan Yan Xiang is fine, if something really happens to her, Wan Yan Man will definitely not be like this.
Although this was just Yue Shaoan's speculation, he forced himself to believe this, and he couldn't bear too much loss in his heart. But the fifth prince's opinion is completely different from Yue Shao'an's, of course, he also acknowledges Wan Yanxiang's influence, but he feels that the more direct reason for the current situation is Wan Yan's self-confidence.
As for the real situation, it was both, but the most important point was not guessed by them, the real reason was actually in the palace, and Wanyanman didn't know the fact that the fifth prince also left with them.
Prince Suo hadn't seen him for the previous two days, and he was suspicious, so he asked people to look for him privately, but after he didn't find it, he was afraid in his heart and didn't dare to report the matter, just when he hesitated.
Yue Shao'an, but they had already reached the realm of the capital division. Although Prince Suo still didn't dare to hide the matter after that, he entered the palace late at night to report the matter, but it was already too late, and it was difficult to recover it.
The emperor of the Jin Kingdom looked at his unsuccessful brother with a sad heart, who only knew women all day long, like a breeding pig who lived by breeding, his mind was stupid, and he couldn't look at it personally, but after all, he was a brother, but he couldn't really punish him, just scolded him and drove him out of the palace.
Suo Wang Ye walked out of the palace with a pale face, the spit stars on his face were frozen into Xiaoice grains, and he did not wipe them off, but he was covered in cold sweat, when he was scolded at first, he didn't feel how, and now when he came out, he realized that he was afraid, and after being frightened, he hurriedly returned to the mansion and never dared to come out again.
As for the palace maid who begged His Majesty, she didn't dare to mention it anymore, so she honestly stayed in the mansion and was grounded.
Yue Shao'an and his entourage rushed for a few days, and the atmosphere was always relatively depressing. His mood couldn't get any better, although having Liu Ruyan's company made his heart feel much warmer in the cold wind, but it was still impossible to be completely unhindered.
Speaking of which, among several people, the happiest should be the fifth prince, but he is very deep in the city, but he doesn't show it much, just looking at the clothes of the Great Song Dynasty that he is gradually familiar with, and there is a hint of warmth between his eyebrows from time to time.
At the same time, being by Yue Shaoan's side is the life she wants to live the most, she has always been a maid, knowing that it is impossible for her to be a wife when she marries someone like Yue Shaoan, and she will not be as jealous as other women, because she is much happier these days than when she was in the palace.
Jingshi has been much better under Zhang Xianrang's governance in the past few months, but after the war, how can he recover in a short time. Although it is no longer like the miserable and withered appearance of Yue Shao'an when he went north, but the New Year is approaching, Jingshi is still like a dead city, there are very few people who enter the city, and few people come out at the same time.
Liu Ruyan looked at the current Jingshi, sighed in her heart, there was a lot of regret in her eyes, shook her head, and sighed softly. Yue Shao'an walked side by side with her, behind him was the red horse left by Wan Yanxiang, with his hands behind his back, grasping the reins, hearing her sigh, he said calmly: "After the war, there are no hungry bones on the road, and it is already very good to be able to keep it like this." Zhang Xianrang seems to still have some ability. ”
Liu Ruyan frowned slightly, and seemed to disagree with Yue Shao'an's praise of this thief who betrayed the country and sought glory, however, she did not refute Yue Shaoan's words, but nodded and said softly: "Zhang Xianrang, who has been the prime minister in the Great Song Dynasty for so many years, must have some ability, but for his own glory, he has displaced so many people, and how many people died just when the Jin soldiers entered the city...... Although it is good that he can govern like this now, but before this, the people used it so miserably, and it seems that it is a year, but I think that many people should still be doing white things in their homes now, and it is difficult to resist their crimes. ”
Speaking of the back, Liu Ruyan's face became colder, her hands were clenched tightly, and the frosty temperament appeared on her body again.
Of course, Yue Shao'an knew how miserable it was during the bloody night of Jingshi, although he didn't see it with his own eyes, but when Yanjing first saw Liu Ruyan, she was still wearing that bloody dress, even if she didn't see it with her own eyes, she could completely imagine what happened that night.
On that night, the entire Liufu was washed in blood, leaving only their father and daughter, Liu Ruyan's hatred for Zhang Xianrang, Yue Shaoan was completely understandable, but he didn't know how to comfort her.
Although her face was calm, Yue Shaoan knew that she must hate Zhang Xianrang in her heart now, and she must not be like this in her heart. He handed the reins in his right hand to his left, stretched out his arm and put his arm around her shoulder, and the two stood still, and after a while, he whispered, "Everything will be fine......"
Liu Ruyan looked up at him, but found that his eyes were not looking at himself, but staring at the sparsely populated city gate, with a solemn face, this sentence seemed to be said to himself, and it was said to himself.
Liu Ruyan stared at his face quietly for a while, did not speak, but leaned her head on his shoulder, and her frosty complexion eased.
Xiao Si kept following behind the two, looking at the two of them like this, and didn't step forward with interest.
In the past few days, Yue Shao'an has been asking Niu Ren to take care of the five princes, so Niu Ren followed the five princes and stood behind him, and the five princes in front of him also looked at the city tower of the capital division, his pupils shrunk, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
After a long time, Yue Shao'an withdrew his gaze, and the finger on Liu Ruyan's shoulder gently patted her arm and said, "Let's go......"
"Hmm!" Liu Ruyan nodded, walked side by side with him, and came to the side of the fifth prince.
Yue Shao'an saw that the fifth prince was still staring at the city wall, originally they could go back to Hangzhou without passing through the capital division, but the fifth prince insisted on taking this road, Yue Shao'an knew that he must have some thoughts about the capital division in his heart, so he took a few steps forward and said in a harmonious voice: "Lord Wang, do you want to go into the city to have a look?" ”
The fifth prince turned his head and did not answer Yue Shao'an's question, but suddenly asked, "Mr. Yue, what do you think of Zhang Xianrang's occupation of the capital master?" ”
Yue Shao'an didn't expect him to ask this question suddenly, and he was not prepared for a while, so after he lowered his head and pondered for a while, he raised his head and said in a flat tone: "Zhang Xianrang is only staying for a while, and he will live for a short time." ”
Yue Shao'an's words are not self-confidence swelled to no purpose, but as far as the matter is concerned, whether it is the Great Song Dynasty or the Jin State, it is impossible for Zhang Xian to let this bitch emperor do it for too long, the Jin State is borrowing his hand to ease public opinion, it is impossible to let him stay too long, once he is ripe, he will definitely pull him down, because it is impossible for Jin Guo to let him stand firm, and it is difficult to control the development himself. As for Da Song, he hated him even more, maybe Jin Guo would only put him under house arrest when he pulled him down, and Da Song definitely wanted him to die.
The fifth prince looked at Yue Shao'an and nodded heavily: "Mr. Yue is right, soon, I will let him come back." ”
Hearing these words in the ears of others, you may feel surprised, how can a merry prince dare to say such a thing, where is his confidence? But Yue Shao'an knows the few secrets that know the earth, the old emperor is dead, the merry prince is the one who wants to be the emperor after all, he has this determination, with Zhang Xianrang's strength, it is absolutely impossible to keep it, if you don't consider the Jin country, just clean up Zhang Xianrang, the Jingshi will definitely be taken back.
The fifth prince's sharp gaze was nailed to the city wall, he took a deep breath, and said slowly: "I still don't go in, if we want to come back, we will come back openly." ”
Yue Shao'an nodded, and after the fifth prince and Xiao Si got into the carriage, and Niu Ren drove forward, he rode the red horse with Liu Ruyan, and then caught up, bypassing the Jingshi Bianliang City, and headed towards Hangzhou......
