Chapter 132: Homecoming
Xiao Wenxuan looked at Su Muling, who regarded Xiao Wenchen as his naΓ―ve, and was so painful that he couldn't immediately slash Xiao Wenchen.
"Lord Wang, he?"
Su Muling's big eyes were rolling on Xiao Wenxuan's face, as if she was distinguishing whether his words were true or false.
Seeing this, Xiao Wenchen was afraid of long nights and dreams, his eyes showed a fierce light, he pushed Su Muling away with his hand, and the sword in his other hand stabbed straight at Xiao Wenxuan.
"Full of gibberish, I'll end up with you now...... Yes? β
Xiao Wenchen suddenly had a tingling pain in his waist, and then something hit him heavily on the hand holding the sword, and as soon as he let go of the sword and landed on the ground, half of his body staggered two steps in pain before he could barely stand firm.
Xiao Wenchen felt the pain in his waist and looked at Su Muling in surprise.
Su Muling was being blocked by Xiao Wenxuan at the moment, revealing half of his head and staring at him cautiously.
"You?"
Xiao Wenchen gritted his teeth and pulled out half a pair of bloody scissors from his waist.
"It's me, I'm amnesia, but I remember it again. It's impossible for you to replace You'an and return to the capital to continue doing evil. β
After Su Muling finished speaking, she winked mischievously at Xiao Wenxuan.
It turns out that she has been acting? Xiao Wenxuan was angry and loved to push her behind him again.
"Lord Wang."
Fang Ping solved the janitor and ran to Xiao Wenxuan's side, the stone on the back of Xiao Wenchen's hand just now was hit by him.
Xiao Wenxuan nodded at him.
"Xiao Wenchen. King Ping rebelled, Zhulian Nine Clans, do you think you will escape? β
Xiao Wenchen held half a pair of scissors, his face turned pale, and he slowly stepped back, looking at the three people in front of him with disdain.
"You think I'm going to be alone? Hmph, then you are underestimating me. β
After Xiao Wenchen finished speaking, he put his left index finger into his mouth, and a sharp whistle instantly spread throughout the valley.
After the whistle, there was no reaction around, only Su Muling looked around uneasily.
Xiao Wenchen looked around, trying to restrain the panic in his heart, and blew again, this time the voice was sharper and more urgent.
After this sound, there was finally a sound in the grove at the foot of the mountain, and hundreds of officers and soldiers appeared from the woods with dozens of sturdy men dressed in coarse cloth.
Xiao Wenxuan smiled, "Is that what the prince wanted to call just now?" β
Seeing that the few remaining guards were killed by the officers and soldiers, Xiao Wenchen's eyes were resentful, and he left behind the usual words of the loser: "Xiao Wenxuan, don't be complacent, as long as I am alive, I will not admit defeat."
At this time, Wei Yao, accompanied by the prefect Lord Cao, walked out of the shadows.
"The prince of the world can be described as insidious and cunning, and he has hidden so many people in secret. If it weren't for the design of King Ningjun, I am afraid that there would be endless troubles. β
Wei Yao ordered someone to surround Xiao Wenchen, unloaded half of the scissors in his hand, and tied them into twists. The people who should be arrested were all caught, and Wei Yao was about to leave, but was stopped by Su Muling.
"Wait, there are three more people who need to be found by Wei Wuhou."
Wei Yao stopped. "Who?"
Su Muling said: "One is Chen Sheng, the mighty prince of the world, and the other is my friend Blue and my girl Pomegranate. β
"Don't worry, princess, as long as they are alive, I will definitely rescue them." Wei Wuhou and Master Cao took people away.
Su Muling was grabbed by Xiao Wenxuan from behind and held tightly in his arms, Su Muling felt that he was about to be strangled in two by him.
"Do you know how worried I am about you?" Xiao Wenxuan's voice was hoarse, losing the prestige he had just hauled.
"I know." Su Muling stretched out his clenched arm and gasped hard.
"You sent that letter from the yamen, right?" Xiao Wenxuan stretched out his arms to hold her as if he would lose her again as soon as he let go.
Su Muling looked at him sadly and begged, "If you don't let go of me, I will never have a chance to write again." β
Xiao Wenxuan smiled bitterly, and finally reluctantly let go. He reached out and gently brushed a few strands of hair from her cheeks, a little scared.
"Why don't you run away if you have a chance? Do you know how dangerous it is to stay with him? β
"If I run away, it's going to be hard to catch him."
"Why don't you know my heart......"
Seeing his childlike grievances, Su Muling smiled and took the initiative to throw herself into his arms.
"Why don't you know, I know you're worried about me. Okay, I'm hungry, you treat me to something delicious. β
Because he knew that he was accompanied by a fake Xiao Wenxuan every day, Su Muling had no appetite to eat these days. At this time, Xiao Wenchen was finally arrested, and Su Muling's appetite was great.
"Okay, you can eat whatever you want."
Xiao Wenxuan raised his hand, Fang Ping drove the carriage that had been prepared long ago, the two got into the carriage, Xiao Wenxuan ordered Fang Ping to go to the best restaurant in Qizhou, and then hid in the carriage and lingered with Su Muling.
β¦β¦
"Why is there no news from there?"
After dinner, Su Muling looked left and right in front of the door, and finally couldn't help but ask Xiao Wenxuan, who was writing excerpts on the side.
Xiao Wenxuan didn't raise his head to comfort her: "Don't worry, as long as they are alive, Weiwuhou can rescue them." β
Su Muling felt that this was so familiar, and it took a long time to remember that Wei Yao also said the same.
Su Muling waited for him like an ant on a hot pot, and finally Fang Ping's happy voice came from outside the door: "Lord Wang, princess, Weiwu Hou sent someone to deliver the news, and Pomegranate and Chen Shengbu found it." β
Got it? Su Muling surprise,
"What about people? Where is it? β
"Wei Wuhou said that the hour is late, let them stay in the yamen for one night, and send someone to send it tomorrow."
"You'an, do you hear it, they're still alive, they're not dead." Su Muling turned around and threw herself into Xiao Wenxuan's arms, laughing and crying.
Xiao Wenxuan knows that she is kind at heart, and a subordinate lives like an ant in the eyes of others, but she treats the subordinates around her as brothers and sisters.
"Okay, they're all right, and you're at ease." Xiao Wenxuan stroked her head and let her wipe her tears on herself.
This night was the most restful and sweet night that Su Muling slept in these days when she came to Qizhou.
The next day, Chen Shengbu and pomegranates were sent back to the palace.
Su Muling carefully looked at the pomegranate up and down, and found that her condition was not as bad as she thought, except for losing some weight, there were no new injuries.
"They didn't hit you?" Su Muling still asked uneasily.
"No, and they are still fed every day." It's much stronger than when he was in the Pingwang Mansion.
When Pomegranate saw Miss again, she smiled heartlessly, completely forgetting her limping leg.
"What about you?"
Su Muling looked at Blue, Blue was a prince in the end, and it was because of her that he had suffered so much wronged and suffered so much.
"I'm fine, too."
Blue was freed and grinned happily.
Seeing that everyone was fine, Su Muling began to carry out the work at hand with confidence.
King Ping rebelled, and it stands to reason that he should be beheaded all over the house. But Xiao Wenxuan is a hero, and he has such a blood relationship with the emperor. So the emperor ordered:
King Ping's people were all arrested, and King Ping's Mansion was owned by Xiao Wenxuan, the king of Ningjun.
Now, all the people related to King Ping in the Ping Mansion have been arrested, and there is no one else in the entire palace except for the officers and soldiers sent by Lord Cao.
Lord Cao's soldiers were only temporarily used as domestic servants for a few days, and they had to be withdrawn after all. The Pingwang Mansion currently needs to buy new people to come in and take care of the home.
Since Xiao Wenxuan came back, he has not heard of Su Muling, and he has been worried all day long, where is he thinking about arranging palace affairs.
Now that Su Muling is back safe and sound, Xiao Wenxuan handed over the palace to her to take care of in order to show her status as a princess.
"We're just staying here temporarily, and we'll have to go back to the capital after we arrange this place in a few days, and Ling'er here in the palace will bother to do it."
Xiao Wenxuan became the shopkeeper, and Su Muling was also happy to have something to do.
On the second day, Su Muling, accompanied by Fang Ping, personally went to the market for buying and selling human beings and carefully selected fifty people. After returning, he took advantage of his strengths and was assigned to several positions.
They don't have to stay for a few days before they leave. There is no master in the palace, so there are no girls, long followers, and guards. Only the butler brought the porter, the groom, the cook, the nurse, the gardener, the handyman, and the bookkeeper.
As for cleaning up the property of the palace, it really took Su Muling some effort. The valuable items of each courtyard are put into the basement, and all other items are registered, and then the windows and doors are sealed.
As for the private treasury of the palace Xiao Lin, it surprised Su Muling. As a prince and the emperor's younger brother, the private treasury can almost be described as poor and pitiful. It seems that King Ping has not hesitated to give up his family in order to get the throne.
All the remnants of King Ping were captured, and Wei Yao was about to leave for Beijing, and the newly appointed Ning Jingyan sent a team of elite soldiers to assist Wei Yao in escorting the prisoners.
King Ping's subordinates were all handcuffed and shackled, and the concubines were unkempt and unkempt like grasshoppers, and were strung with ropes. King Ping and several of his brothers and sisters were locked up in a prison car, and a group of hundreds of people was mighty, which was very spectacular.
Wei Yao sat in the spacious carriage and walked slowly and leisurely at the back of the group.
When I came, it took only half a month to go back...... Wei Yao looked at the June sun and sighed secretly, at the current speed, it would be good to be able to catch up and go home to accompany the eldest princess for the New Year.
Wei Yao set off to return to Beijing, and Xiao Wenxuan and Su Muling also set off.
Pomegranate's legs couldn't withstand the long journey, and Su Muling was worried about Su Haoran again. In a dilemma, Chen Sheng offered to stay and accompany Pomegranate to heal.
Su Muling naturally agreed. Chen Sheng went to Donggu Island with them, and worked hard all the way to Northwest Qizhou, and experienced the unbearable time of being caught and trapped with them, which can be regarded as sharing joys and sorrows, and handed over the pomegranate to him Su Muling was relieved.
The king of Ningjun returned to Beijing, and Lord Cao equipped them with chariots, horses and personnel.
Xiao Wenxuan, the carriage horse, accepted it, but refused the officers and soldiers.
On the day of departure, Lord Cao summoned all the local officials to see off Xiao Wenxuan in front of the Pingwang Mansion.
Who knew that when the sun was three poles, the gate of Pingwangfu was not opened.
The crowd waiting in front of the door had already stood with sore legs and weak feet, and it was the summer at this time, the weather was dry and hot, and some of the older ones were already sweating profusely and standing unsteadily. But Lord Cao didn't speak, and no one dared to urge.
Master Cao also wondered, didn't he leave today? I was really impatient, so I asked someone to come up and knock on the door.
When I asked, I found out that the king of Ningjun and the princess went out before dawn, and I was afraid that they would have arrived dozens of miles away at this time.
