Chapter 227: The Road Ahead is Unclear

Ruoyun only had to bargain, but unexpectedly, only a straight letter got the man to accompany him, and he and Changde were slowly silent with the sedan chair.

After the imperial garden, the people in the sedan chair ordered to stop the sedan chair, through the thick curtain to see the red maple golden apricot, the ripples of the fish pond, there are three or two palace people accompanied by a palace concubine dressed in green to watch the pool, laughing in the pavilion.

Ruoyun looked along, the palace concubine obviously saw her too, and the next moment she actually lifted her skirt and ran towards her, and when she came to her, she grabbed her shirt with both hands and pulled it hard, and said hoarsely: "Tell me!" Tell me your way! ”

Ruoyun looked at the face of Chu Rulan, who had been disgusted by herself thousands of times in front of her, and couldn't break free, so she had to ask for help: "Father-in-law Chang!" ”

"Oh, let go of Concubine Xian!" Changde yelled that it was not good, and immediately recruited someone to pull her away.

Chu Rulan's sideburns were a little chaotic, her eyes were eager, and her spirit had long been replaced by sorrow, and she was set up by the palace people without pity, but she still looked forward to Ruoyun and said: "What did you say to Hu Shu'er, not only is she not crazy, but she also dresses up, Shu Changge can't hear her making trouble, you teach her how to attract the emperor, right?" Tell me quickly! ”

"Presumptuous!" Ruoyun hated the whole clothes, and reprimanded loudly, "As a palace concubine, you have no mouth to hide, but with this, you have no hope in this life!" ”

Chu Rulan froze, and suddenly cried, slid to her knees while crying, and begged: "Sister, you help me, you help me!" I'm your sister! ”

"You know that, too?" Ruoyun resisted the urge to scold because of the presence of others, so she had to stand still and say coldly, "Why don't you know that I am your cousin when you speculate and accuse for no reason?" You planted the blame for Lin Duyan's death. Are you still delusional that it's my cousin?! ”

Ruoyun's words came out, and everyone around was shocked, although the files in the palace were kept by Concubine Su Xian and Chu Cairen as sisters. But Chu Cairen has always been-for-tat with Concubine Su Xian, and it is the first time that this sister's matter has been made public in such a public manner, and it is even more unique for the two to admit it in person.

"I'm ......" Chu Rulan looked in a trance, speechless for a while, stunned for a long time, struggled to grab Ruoyun's skirt, and begged. I repent! I repent! Really repentant! ”

"I spared your life, all for the sake of my uncle, do you repent? How to repent? Is it your repentance to cling to the grace all the time?! Ruoyun reached out and pulled the hem of her skirt. said bitterly, "If you really repent, you will go and talk to Lin Duyan yourself after a hundred years!" ”

Chu Rulan stiffened and immediately let go. looked at Ruoyun with a little unwillingness. sneered: "Concubine Xian, do you really care about sisterhood? ”

"How dare a folk girl have a relationship with her mother?" Ruoyun sneered, stared at her for a long time, brushed her sleeves and turned around, "You still have to think about it, why don't you make trouble for Chu Mansion in the future!" He said and walked a few steps.

Chu Rulan immediately howled and crawled on the ground.

The sedan chair was carried by people and gradually caught up with Ruoyun, and someone inside coughed lightly. Then a leisurely and low voice came: "I really have a good heart, but it's a pity that I can't stay in this palace." ”

Ruoyun's footsteps faltered. But he only shook his head lightly and laughed at himself.

"The county lord said that the girl is very dangerous here, so she has to take self-defense." The girl with a large pile of things said, blinking, and put a sword on the table.

Ruoyun packed up, sat in the hall and waited for Gu Yinzhao to come, drinking tea by herself, listening to Xiaocui's nagging vigorously.

"The county lord also said that the wind and sand on the road are strong, and you have to wear this too." Xiao Cui said as she flipped over a cloak and came out.

Ruoyun glanced at the big box at her feet, and said helplessly: "What else does the county lord say?" ”

"County Lord......" Xiao Cui thought for a while, and simply piled things on the table, "Anyway, the county lord said that you should bring these girls." ”

"Take me all with you and you'll be able to travel around the world." Ruoyun couldn't cry or laugh.

Xiao Cui was a little embarrassed to block this sentence, Rou Yan on the side poked her head, picked out the first sword from the pile of objects, pulled it out with her backhand, and exclaimed: "Wow, what a beautiful sword." ”

"The things of King Rong's Mansion must not be vulgar, the princess was born in a country and has a unique vision." Ruoyun looked at this small weapon that happened to be suitable for her, and knew that Rong Ying had carefully selected it, and then sighed, "Okay, just bring this, I can't bring anything else." ”

"This ......" Xiao Cui was embarrassed, but finally nodded, "The county lord invited Lord Xue out with Uncle Cheng early in the morning, it is inconvenient to come to see him off, and please don't mind the girl." ”

Ruoyun choked on the sound of "uncle", and then laughed irrepressibly.

"Sister, the princess's maidservants here are so good-looking, Yan'er is envious to death." Rou Yan stared at Xiao Cui, who had a beautiful face, and exclaimed.

"Then Rou Yan wants to stay?" Ruoyun asked with a smile.

"No, Yan'er still wants to see Brother Wang." Rou Yan quickly stuck out her tongue and shook her head vigorously.

Xiaocui was praised for being in a good mood, and said to Rou Yan, who was dressed in casual clothes: "The princess is the pearl, no matter what country she wears, she is so beautiful, and when it is cold in the future, the princess will remember to add clothes." ”

"Hmm!" Rou Yan was praised and smiled sweetly.

Ruoyun listened to the cold, her smile gradually faded, and she still remembered the sentence "Don't read the cold", even if she was troubled and troubled, no matter how busy and neglected it was, it was inevitable that she would miss Cheng Qingxuan who was far away in Longhua Villa, as if the melancholy in her heart increased every day, making her soft and helpless.

She listened to Rou Yan chatting with Xiao Cui, but her mind had already flown far away, and it wasn't until Gu Yinzhao and General Fu were waiting at the door, and the attendants called several times before she suddenly came back to her senses.

Ruoyun took Rou Yan out of the house, and saw Hu Yu'er greeted her in a crimson dress with an embroidered gold hem, and her big belly was wrapped in a heavy cloak, and when she saw her coming, she hurriedly bowed her head and said, "Miss Su." ”

Ruoyun didn't know what attitude to use to face her, so she only returned the salute, turned her head and said to Gu Yinzhao, who was ready to go: "The princess wants to reunite with the prince, and the emperor will grant amnesty." The princess only crossed the border with a few servants. ”

Gu Yinzhao raised his eyes and swept over Ruoyun and Rou Yan, then looked at the few old women standing on the side, and immediately agreed: "This method is very good, General Fu didn't bring too many people, it was intended to protect us and others, as long as we can contact smoothly, we can achieve half the success." ”

General Fu on the side looked at Ruoyun, who was dressed in plain clothes, and immediately turned his face away.

Ruoyun nodded to Gu Yinzhao without mind, and summoned Rou Yan and the servant woman into the cart with Hu Yu'er.

Unexpectedly, when they arrived at the West City Gate, someone greeted them with officers and soldiers, and pointed out that they wanted Ruoyun to get out of the car and see them.

Ruoyun was full of suspicion, so she got out of the car and saw a familiar face, and couldn't help blurting out: "Uncle! ”

Lord Chu hurried over as if he had just received the news, he didn't even wear his official hat, and when he saw that she wanted to speak, he only nodded and clenched his fists: "Please postpone your trip, Chu has something to say." ”

"Uncle......" Ruoyun looked at Lord Chu's frosty old face, and was a little unbearable, nodded and invited him to talk.

Lord Chu walked straight towards the city wall, and did not stop until he was far away, sighing before speaking, with a sad face: "Ruoyun, Lan'er made a big mistake, but you did not take advantage of this to fall into the well, but tried your best to protect my house, you are really a good boy." Now, I have something to tell you, and you should remember. ”

Ruoyun's expression was grim, and she bowed her head and said, "Uncle wants to say that I am temporarily living in Chu Mansion?" ”

"Exactly." Lord Chu was a little embarrassed, and after thinking about it again and again, he whispered, "Back then, the emperor condemned the crime, and the whole Su Mansion could not escape the disaster, and it was only because of the mediation of the prince with a different surname that he was able to save a few lives, including you." Do you know why I ordered you to be Lan'er's girl and didn't allow you to leave the Chu Mansion? ”

Ruoyun pondered for a moment, and said with some emotion: "But is it because my uncle wants to hide this matter for the time being?" Let 'Su Ruoyun' disappear from the world? ”

Lord Chu was surprised to hear her answer, and glared, "How did you know?" ”

"Just because I knew the reason for the defeat of Su Mansion a few days ago, I contacted my uncle's actions and guessed it." Ruoyun sighed suddenly, "Dare to ask uncle, you learned that I was found on the street and Li Gongzi came to propose marriage, and you wanted me to make a mistake in a hurry, but is it also because of this?" ”

"That's right......" Lord Chu was stunned, so he had to nod his head and say, "I originally wanted you to respond, and then make plans in the future, but I didn't expect that Lord Rong would intervene sideways......"

"Uncle don't regret it, since this matter is closely related to me, I have no reason to escape. But I didn't realize my uncle's hard work, but now I feel ashamed when I think about it. Ruoyun's eyes were steady, she smiled and was relieved, raised her hand to stop Lord Chu from speaking, and said, "I may not come back when I leave Beijing this time, I will face the things I face, and because of this, I originally wanted to ask you, but now there is no need to ask." ”

Lord Chu was stunned on the spot, looked at Ruoyun's calm and abnormal expression for a long time, nodded and sighed: "I knew that you had such an open-mindedness, why should I be so ashamed, it should be the old man who is ashamed." ”

Ruoyun smiled and solemnly waved at Lord Chu: "Uncle has done his best, don't worry, Ruoyun will say goodbye." ”

Yao Huashan is not easy to travel in winter, Zhao Tian took the Qianzhou garrison to support the prince Rong stationed at the southern foot of Yao Hua Mountain, looking at Yizhou from afar, threatening Xuanzhou on the other hand, especially after the emperor personally conquered and conspired with the west, he pushed the defense line for dozens of miles, and Rong Yixuan himself was also stationed, and there was a great tendency to counterattack.

After the removal from Yizhou, the illusion of prosperity in Yizhou was extinguished, coupled with Prince Rong's eyeing and martial law in Linzhou, Gu Yinzhao and his party marched for a few days, and after Yizhou, they could no longer encounter a large number of villages, and the heavy rain in early winter slowed down.

No matter how slow they went, they finally arrived at the junction in the gloomy sky at the beginning of the winter rains, and were allowed by the soldiers stationed there, approaching the camp in the distance little by little, and finally stopping at the fortifications in the front row and sending messengers there.

The group waited for a long time, and finally someone came to the front fortification from the camp and shouted to them from a long distance: "Who is the princess?!" ”

Hu Yu'er was bumpy all the way, and now she was exhausted, but when she heard the shouting, her eyes immediately lit up, and she stepped forward with the help of someone, and said in a trembling voice: "I am!" ”

Ruoyun quietly pulled up her hat, and Tong Rouyan and the others followed.

"You come in with me!" The person who came waved his hand, asked the soldiers behind him to make a way, turned his head and shouted at Ruoyun and the others, "You guys retreat!" She was the only one to enter! (To be continued......)
