Chapter 316: I'm Late
"Eat first."
My grandfather avoided the topic, poked his crutches on the ground, and walked steadily, but slowly.
Things in the palace will soon be discovered, and I don't have much time left to stay here.
"Brother, he's safer now." I say.
My grandfather's hand paused, still slowly picking up the dish, but it was visibly trembling.
The letter from the white dove came as usual, but the interval was sometimes long and sometimes short, probably because the road on the mountain was not so easy to walk.
When I left, my grandfather, a stubborn old man, refused to say much, but he still sent me to the door without saying a word.
"The honor of the White Mansion for a hundred years." Grandfather sighed, during this time, he seemed to sigh more than in previous years combined, "Leave it to you, protect yourself, don't learn from your mother." ”
I was stuffed with something in my hand, cool, it was a key to the dragon and phoenix.
It's been mottled for a long time, but it's still well preserved.
This is still the first generation of monarchs served by the White Mansion, and the supreme glory that has been rewarded is incomparable, and it has been passed down from generation to generation, even if it does not rely on this, it can maintain the dignity of the White Mansion.
But I didn't expect that by now, a hundred years of glory would collapse overnight.
Outside, it was getting dark.
Before Pei Yousheng's side moved, Lu Yu blinked excitedly, "Found it, princess, found a location." ”
The note that was held by the green grapefruit was soaked with sweat and crumpled, with the location written on it.
I kept looking for it, and I didn't hesitate to use private soldiers, which almost attracted Pei Yousheng's attention, just to find Thirteen and Changxing, but it was fruitless, I didn't expect to find it now.
It was in the place I had arranged, but my people didn't pick it up, and they were detained in a small courtyard in the middle of nowhere.
The people at the door had already been cleaned up and fainted on the ground, and they went in unimpeded.
In the backyard, overgrown with weeds, my heart trembled.
I remember that there seemed to be a familiar scene in the palace before, but this time it was different.
Changxing and Thirteen did not hide in panic like before, but stood close to the wall, Changxing was holding a knife in his hand, blood was still dripping from the tip of the knife, and his thin body was tense and ready to attack.
And in the grass, there were several people lying down, all of them lying horizontally, and they had long since lost their breath.
When I stepped on the grass and went in, the movement made the two children nervous, and they looked like beasts guarding their territory, and there was a low warning in their throats.
"It's me, I'm coming."
I passed step by step, my eyes were a little sour, when I heard that the people arranged in the Zhuangzi did not receive people, but were abducted and left, my heart seemed to be crushed.
But I didn't expect that the kidnappers had some brains, and they dared to fall boldly in the Zhuangzi, so they couldn't find it when they searched this time.
Changxing's tense arms eased down, the knife fell to the ground without holding it steady, and the jawbone, which was clenched tightly, seemed to tremble, looking at me silently.
And in the back, the dirty Thirteen, who was also holding a dagger, when he saw me, his pupils dilated, he was stunned for a moment, stumbled over, slammed into my arms, and grabbed my clothes tightly.
Looking up with those clear eyes, he gritted his teeth and shouted, "Why, why are you here now?" ”
"Didn't you leave us behind, why did you come now?"
I gently stroked her hair with my hand, covered the sourness in my eyes, and whispered, "Sorry, I'm late." ”
"I'll take you home."
Thirteen's red eyes suddenly filled with fog, buried his head in my arms, and cried, "Sister, I thought you didn't want us anymore." ”
My body kept shaking, and my hands were clutching me.
Changxing also walked to my side silently, and the words rolled for a long time before he raised the knife in his hand, "Princess, I will also protect people." ”
He has always been silent, and he rarely said a word.
I understand why he said that, in the same scene before, he didn't have the courage to draw a knife, so he went to the school district to experience painstakingly, and now he can finally be on his own.
"Long line." I smiled and screamed softly.
Don't look over your head for a long time, your eyes are slightly red.
I personally sent people to the palace, and outside the palace were guards who were blocking them.
Especially after I lifted the curtain, I was even more shocked, "Eldest princess? Oh no, princess, why are you here? ”
Thirteen had fallen asleep next to me, but Changxing still clenched the hilt of his knife as always, and sat up straight without saying a word.
I lifted the corner of the curtain, the gentleness on my face was raised, my chin was raised arrogantly, and I mocked: "When I come back from this palace, I still need to inform you?" ”
The voice was cold and sarcastic, but my heart tightened slightly.
Several hours have passed, and it stands to reason that Pei Yousheng should have found out, I don't know what his attitude will be, it's like I've been getting along for more than ten years, and I can't see what kind of person he is.
The guard knelt on the ground and said in fear, "No, no, no, that's not what my subordinates meant. He looked up hesitantly, "It stands to reason that if you go back to the palace, you should ......"
"Briefing?" I took his words and smiled, but the words were even sharper, "Now that there is no leader in the government, who will the palace report to, go to the last stick of incense and ask for instructions?" ”
There was only the sound of gasping cold air next to them, and those people still hesitated to organize the language.
I glanced at the gate behind me, "Or is it that now that the regent has ascended the throne, the palace needs his approval to go home?" ”
The kneeling men kept kowtowing, and the horror in their eyes almost overflowed.
I took out a token from my hand, passed freely, and with a flick of my wrist, threw it directly in front of them, and said in a contemptuous voice: "Open the door." ”
This token is thanks to my brother's absurdity, and I like to go out, and he gave me a small box like a toy, just to make me feel comfortable.
Everyone else spends a lot of money for beauty, but he is to please a sister who has never been attentive to him, what a fool.
I blinked, my eyes a little sore.
The door opened, and I saw a guard sneaking out while he was in chaos, just glanced at it and took it back, even if it wasn't him, there would be more other people to report to Pei Yousheng.
I was imprisoned in another way, and I was held in the palace for many days, and at last I saw the light of day.
"Princess, what's going on?"
Changxing's voice was very low, coinciding with the voice changer, and his voice was unusually hoarse, and he pointed to my wrist with some hesitation.
I was in a hurry to untie the so-called gorgeous chain, and I had exhausted all means to get rid of it, and my wrist was already mottled and all blood.
"Bumped it." I avoided talking about it, "I will send you to the Queen Mother, stay for the time being, and then pick you up when the wind calms down." ”
Changxing lowered his head and said 'um', and said in a low voice, "Are you still back?" ”
I laughed, "Yes, how not." ”
I reached out and rubbed his head as if I was rubbing Thirteen's head, and he was obviously uncomfortable, stiff, but still bowed his head obediently.
