Chapter Seventy-Two: Jin Xiuchen went to Shuangxia Town in person
Peng Mo panicked when he heard this, and hurriedly stood up. "King Chen, why did he go?"
Why did he go? Why did the emperor let him go to Shuangxia Town to earn prestige?" "Isn't it supposed to go down to His Royal Highness King Gong?" "Didn't King Gong stay in Beijing to transport the second batch of grain?"
Pian Feng's eyes widened, and he said in surprise: "How does Miss know that the emperor was originally scheduled to be His Royal Highness King Gong?"
Peng Mo didn't have the heart to play dumb riddles with Lianfeng, so he grabbed her arm and said hurriedly: "Say it quickly!"
Lian Feng saw that Peng Mo was in a hurry, and nodded hurriedly and said: "Slave maid, this is to say, the emperor was originally scheduled to be His Royal Highness King Gong, but His Royal Highness King Gong suddenly fell ill and fainted in the early days, so the emperor assigned His Royal Highness King Chen again." ”
King Gong suddenly fell ill? Did you do it, Jin Xiuchen? What are you going to do? Why do you have to go to Shuangxia Town?
In an instant, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, Peng Mo's eyes widened, could it be....? His heart suddenly suffocated, the strength of his body was drained, and he was unable to sit back, and tears flowed out immediately, muttering: "Jin Xiuchen, why are you...!" Why do you care about my affairs? Don't you have no self-esteem? Aren't you angry and angry?
Seeing Peng Mo like this, Lianfeng suddenly became at a loss, took out a handkerchief from his arms to wipe Peng Mo's tears, and asked in a panic, "Miss, why are you crying?"
waved his hand and said in a dumb voice: "You go out, I want to be quiet!"
Lian Feng looked at Peng Mo's appearance, and felt relieved, but he didn't dare to rebel, so he had to retreat, but he didn't go far, just stayed outside the door, listening carefully to the movement in the house.
Ten miles outside Dayong City, the second group of teams who were ordered to go to disaster relief moved forward mightily.
"Your Highness hates it.... A delicate and feminine voice emanated from a luxurious-looking carriage.
"Does Yue'er hate this king?" said in a puzzled and smiling tone.
"It's so itchy, the concubine knows it's wrong... Your Highness, stop... Itchy.... ”
In the carriage, the laughter continued, and it was slightly abrupt in the entire dull team of transporting grain for disaster relief, and the accompanying guards and officials looked at the carriage from time to time, and contempt and contempt appeared between their eyebrows.
And at this moment, Jin Xiuchen, who should be flirting with a beauty in a luxurious and comfortable carriage, is galloping on a remote and rarely populated path in the suburbs of Beijing, with only Qi Xin by his side.
Qi Xin caught up with Jin Xiuchen's side, frowned and asked, "Your Highness, what if we do this, what if we show our stuffing?" There are quite a few court officials in the team, they are very smart and cautious, what if they see through...?
Jin Xiuchen rode the horse, his eyes looked straight ahead, and when he heard Qi Xin's worried words, his eyebrows and eyes did not move. "If Qianmian and Si Yue can't do this thing well, they are not qualified to stay by the king's side!"
Qi Xin thought of Qianmian and Si Yue's skills, so he didn't say anything, but he was thinking in his heart, what did His Highness want to do when he dispatched Qianmian and Si Yue this time? Does it have anything to do with where Qi Mu went?
"His Royal Highness the King of Jin, His Royal Highness the King of Jin. ”
"Your Highness, Your Highness. ”
The shouts spread far away in the valley, dozens of people held torches and looked for it all night, and they had already walked most of the valley, how could they find a little clue, but Jin Rui, who fell off the cliff last night, seemed to have disappeared out of thin air, and there was no trace!
Zhang Quan shouted hoarsely, and couldn't help but hurriedly say: "Sir, I've searched everywhere, but I still haven't found His Royal Highness King Jin!"
Wen Ge looked at the surging river in a daze, his eyes were bloodshot, his face was haggard, he had been searching and rescuing all night, but he didn't get any results, his heart was like a drum, and he was terrified. "Go downstream along the river to look for it, you have to see people in life, and you have to see corpses in death. ”
As soon as Zhang Quan heard the word "corpse", even the tips of his fingers trembled, if the King of Jin died, would they still have a way to live? Nana nodded and said, "Yes, humble duty... Humble duty immediately to find... Go and find it. He stammered with infinite fear.
Wen Ge lost his strength, sat on a large dry stone with his crutches, looked at the river that had swelled due to the flood, and muttered, "Your Highness, you must be safe." "Your great cause is not yet in hand!
At this time, Jin Rui, the king of Jin, who was searched by everyone all night, was carried by Qi Mu to a village called Yangliu Village and hidden.
Seeing that the time was about to pass, two people walked far away on the dirt road outside the village, and an old woman with a sixtieth birthday was followed by a woman with a medium figure.
The old woman carried a bamboo basket and walked all the way, and her voice floated intermittently.
"Bodhisattva... Spirit... ”
When Qi Mu saw the two of them, he kicked the unconscious Jin Rui to the side of the road at the entrance of the village, and jumped onto the big tree.
A woman dressed in coarse cloth clothes, with a pockmarked face and a dark face, asked the old woman who was crossing the basket next to her with a depressed face. "Mother, you say, can the Bodhisattva's sign work? Can I really marry this year?" After so many years, she has long been an old girl, and no one in Yangliu Village wants to marry her.
When the old woman heard this, she slapped the woman on the back and reprimanded: "Yang Hua, don't talk nonsense, the Bodhisattva will be angry." After speaking, he put his hands together and bowed: "The child's mouth is open, the Bodhisattva forgives the sin, the Bodhisattva forgives the sin." ”
Yang Hua was slapped, grinning in pain, muttering and then saying no more, suddenly her eyes turned to the side of the road at the entrance of the village, she couldn't help but widen her eyes at this time, pulled her mother's sleeve, and said hurriedly: "Mother, what do you think is that?"
Yang Huaniang was interrupted, and she wanted to be angry, but when she saw what her daughter was pointing to, she immediately swallowed her words back and ran over in waves.
Yang Hua looked at it and hurriedly followed her mother's footsteps.
Yang Huaniang's eyes lit up after seeing the man's appearance, and she hurriedly squatted down and probed the man's snort with her hand, and she was still angry.
When she got closer, Yang Hua saw the man's handsome and extraordinary face, and his dark face was unconsciously dyed with red. "Is this the person there, how can it be at the entrance of our village?" she had never seen such a good-looking man.
Yang Huaniang looked at the man who was unconscious, and then at the old girl with a shy face, her eyes rolled, and she smiled, the Bodhisattva's sign really worked!
"Go and call your daddy. Yang Huaniang pushed her daughter back to call people, such a big man and their mother couldn't carry it back.
As soon as Yang Hua heard this, she understood that her mother wanted to save the man, and when she thought of seeing such a handsome man at home, she was surging with excitement in her heart, and she ran back to call people happily.
Qi Xin watched Yang Hua and his father and mother work together to carry Jin Rui back, then jumped off the tree, quietly followed the three into the village, hid in a big tree in front of their house, watched them take off Jin Rui's brocade clothes and burn them, and after some washing, they changed into coarse cloth clothes again.
"What are they trying to do? Take them in, why are they still undressing?"
Cleaned up, Yang Hua came to the West House with a bowl of water, and fed the unconscious man spoonful by spoonful, looking at the man so closely, his heart was even more throbbing, and then seeing the man change into his own coarse cloth clothes, there was a feeling of closing the distance in his heart, and he glanced at the father and mother who were busy in the yard, and she had the courage to put her hands on the man's chest.
Qi Xin, who was hiding in the big tree outside, saw a chill, but he was really curious, if Jin Rui woke up and knew that he had been lightly treated by a woman with an ugly face, how would he feel?
was looking happy, suddenly his face was solemn, he suddenly turned sideways to avoid a stone from behind, the hidden weapon in his sleeve slipped into his palm, and just wanted to send it out, he saw the two people standing in the shade of the tree in the distance, and couldn't help but widen his eyes, and secretly said: These two people really look like His Royal Highness and Qi Xin!
After looking at it for a moment, I realized that it was not His Highness and Qi Xin! Hurriedly jumped off the tree and came to the two of them. "Why is Your Highness here?"
Jin Xiuchen looked at the scene in Zhuangzi, there was no expression on his picturesque face, and he opened his lips and asked, "How is it now?"
He already knew all about Peng Mo's plan, he complained about her, annoyed her, but he still couldn't let go of her, and an extreme idea came to his mind, so he designed King Gong, hinting at the emperor, and let Qianmian disguise himself in the carriage, and he... Come here and perfect the plan for her!
Qi Mu calmed down after being surprised, and said: "Fourth Miss means that His Royal Highness King Jin will not be able to go to Shuangxia Town, and now he is unconscious, and he will not be able to catch up with Shuangxia Town for a while." ”
After hearing this, Jin Xiuchen pulled her lips and smiled, she had already said that she was too kind! What is this painless blow? Why don't you make some moves? The lifeless Kyoto should also be lively!
"Does Your Highness have any orders?" Qi Mu looked at Jin Xiuchen's smile, and his spine was cold, is Your Highness going to make a move?
Qi Xin looked at it and was also surprised, His Royal Highness generally doesn't make a move, but as long as he shoots, people have no power to fight back, last time a small action made Jin Rui and Concubine Shu suffer a big loss, this time if it is again...!
Before the end of the day, Wen Ge and the others had already searched the valley thoroughly, and the people sent to search for it downstream had also returned, but there was still no trace!
Zhang Quan said awe-inspiringly: "Sir, it can't go on like this, we have few people and the speed of searching is too slow, so let's send someone to Shuangxia Town to ask someone to search and rescue together." ”
Wen Ge didn't know that there were many people and the search would be faster, but Jin Rui's trip was secretive, if he went to Shuangxia Town at this time to ask someone to search and rescue, then it would be equivalent to exposing his traces in front of King Qu and King Ning, and after the two of them knew about it, they would definitely add fuel and vinegar to the royal front.
At that time, Jin Rui's plan to establish prestige in Shuangxia Town and win the hearts of the people was completely shattered, and when he returned to Kyoto, the emperor's reprimand was indispensable.
Judging from the current situation of the Jin Palace, this rebuke can be said to be worse, so he follows the principle of avoiding what he can, but now... The life and safety of King Jin are insignificant compared to this general punishment.
Where there is life, there is hope!
Wen Ge thought for a moment and ordered: "Zhang Quan, you go to Shuangxia Town to find His Royal Highness King Qu and ask him to come to search and rescue." ”
