Chapter 521: News arrives in Beijing
The autumn breeze is rising, and the clouds are scattered.
The old princess was lying on the window looking outside, nearly two months after Xiao Yanzhi and Ye Jinxiao left the capital.
I don't know why, since a while ago, her chest has been stuffy and very uncomfortable.
"Old princess, you have been sitting here for a long time, the wind is blowing stronger and stronger, let's go back to the room."
"No, I'll sit down a little longer."
"Huh."
The old prince walked in briskly from the door, with an air conditioner.
"The weather is getting colder and colder, and it should be a few days before the emperor returns to Beijing, and I don't know when he will be able to arrive."
"The emperor has returned to Beijing, and Yanzhi should also come back."
"Hmm."
The old prince replied casually, "The Seventh Prince has a lot of things in his hands that have not yet been dealt with, and he can only wait for the emperor to come back to preside over the overall situation." ”
Before, he thought he was a person who could stand alone, but he never expected that this time it was all exposed.
"No one in the court is against you today?"
"I don't bother to pay attention." The old prince waved his hand, it was all bad stuff.
"You go take a shower first, and we'll talk later."
"Okay."
However, the old prince was still not able to successfully take a bath in the end.
After all, the news of the altar reached the capital at this moment.
"Old prince, old princess!"
The old princess chuckled in her heart, and the feeling of uneasiness became stronger and stronger, watching the man get closer and closer.
The old prince turned to look at her like this, and hurriedly held the person's hand, and found that it was cold.
The man had already arrived in front of him, and the old prince asked in a suppressed voice, "Are you the person next to Yanzhi?" ”
"Back to the old prince, yes."
The henchman didn't wait for him to continue to speak, and said directly, "Something happened to the master." ”
"He and Miss Ye both fell off the cliff, and now I don't know if they have found it." The old princess stumbled, and the old princess was completely stupid.
"When the subordinates came back, Chaxing had already asked people to start an investigation, but now it's uncertain whether anyone has been found."
The old princess reacted, but still only looked at the old princess in confusion.
"I ....."
The old prince took his beloved wife in his arms, "Wanwan! ”
"I'm fine."
The old princess pretended to look at the person in front of her calmly, but her eyes quietly reddened, "According to your experience, does Yanzhi have any hope of coming back alive?" ”
"Tell the truth."
"The height of the cliff, as well as the terrain, if the master and Miss Ye can come back, it will be a miracle."
The old princess couldn't hold on any longer, leaned back, and fainted.
The old prince carried the person to the bed to sleep, and he took the person to the study.
How did he fall off the cliff, there is no accurate statement at all, just say that Ye Jinxiao fell off the cliff, and then Xiao Yanzhi followed, and the other keys are not half a point.
"Then what is the old prince going to do?"
"I'm leaving the capital."
"But court officials, without the permission of the emperor, must not leave the capital without permission."
Therefore, even if he is anxious now, he must not leave the police car, and he will not be able to act until the emperor returns to Beijing at the latest, but at that time, the daylily is cold.
The old prince obviously thought of this, but he couldn't stop looking for his own son because of this regulation.
"You go and prepare, and you will leave early tomorrow morning."
Seeing that the old prince had made up his mind, and this matter really could not be delayed, his subordinates did not dare to delay the time, so they immediately went down to work.
The old prince wrote an excerpt, went directly to the palace, and sent the excerpt to the emperor's imperial case.
After giving an explanation, he left the palace without stopping.
The gathering of people, and the equipment, there are many things that need to be prepared.
The old prince thought about what else to prepare, but he collided with Ming Zhili head-on.
"Old prince?" Ming Zhili held the person up, "What is going on?" Why do you walk absent-mindedly? ”
Looking closer, Ming Zhili found the red bloodshot in the old prince's eyes, and the tone with a slight joke became serious.
"If I can help, I can't say anything."
The old prince took a step back and glanced at Ming Zhili.
After hesitating for a long time, he said, "If Brother Ming has time, why don't you go with me?" ”
"It's nature."
The two of them left in a hurry, and Song Li, who followed, only saw the backs of the two of them leaving.
He was a little puzzled, why the old prince's face was so bad.
But when I went back, I immediately knew what was going on.
"I see! I see! ”
As early as the day of Xiao Yanzhi's accident, An Guoyao sent a letter back to the capital, and Song Li learned what happened.
Thinking of the old prince's hurried appearance, he must be preparing to leave the capital.
That......
Song Li went back to the palace, went in with a letter of folds in his hand, gave the eunuch two steps forward, and found that there was indeed an excerpt on it.
After seeing this, Song Li returned to the house.
On the other side, the restaurant.
The solemn look on the old prince's face has never dissipated, Ming Zhili didn't dare to ask when he looked at it along the way, but now he finally has a chance.
"Dare to ask the old prince, what happened?"
He remembered that the two of them were relatively close before, so he briefly told him about it.
"I have sent the excerpt to the palace today, and I will leave the capital tomorrow."
"The old man has a reluctant request here, if something happens, Brother Ming can say a few words within his ability."
Ming Zhili hadn't reacted yet, and after hearing what the old prince said, he immediately nodded.
"The King of Joy will be safe."
"I hope."
Speaking of which, Ming Zhili didn't know how to comfort him.
The old prince didn't waste time with him here, and after saying a few words, he planned to go home.
Before going out, he glanced at Ming Zhili, "Not many people in the capital know about this matter now, Brother Ming should be careful not to spread any news out." ”
"It's nature."
If something happens to Xiao Yanzhi, the capital will not say that there will be a big chaos, at least it will be a small chaos.
For the common people and officials, they all have their own worries and carnivals. Ming Zhili understands how to do this thing, and has this score in his heart.
"In that case, I won't say anything superfluous, and I'll go first."
"Okay."
When Ming Zhili returned home, he was still thinking about this matter, and he was upset.
When Mrs. Ming saw Ming Zhili like this, she immediately spoke, "But there was something upsetting in the officialdom?" Didn't you say before that you don't take the affairs of officialdom home? ”
"It's just this moment, and we'll be fine later."
Seeing this, Mrs. Ming didn't say much.
"I'll ask people to boil a bowl of soothing soup, you can drink it and rest for a while."
"Hmm."
After the old prince went around outside, he arranged everything as well as possible, and when he returned home, the curtain had already come down.
"Is the old princess awake?"
The maid nodded and leaned sideways, "Just woke up for a while." ”
"Hmm."
