Chapter 289: Many Disasters and Difficulties
"Lord Wang, didn't you notice that something was wrong? How could someone openly break into the palace in broad daylight and kidnap the princess and the prince? ”
Li Feng handed a warm towel to Xiao Wenxuan, and after only a few days, Xiao Wenxuan had already lost a lot of weight, and his eye sockets were deeply sunken.
"Yes, our palace is heavily guarded. Before leaving, we also made a special reminder to strengthen patrols in the backyard. Besides, Wuying and Chen Sheng have always guarded the princess, and with their kung fu, they will not let people kidnap the princess and the prince so easily. Fang Ping was also skeptical about this matter.
"You mean ......" Xiao Wenxuan's worried eyes gradually became clearer. Ling'er deliberately staged this scene in order to let me return to Beijing? ”
"Maybe."
"I think so."
Seeing that the two of them were sure, Xiao Wenxuan's original IQ, which was blinded by fear and worry, slowly returned.
When Xiao Wenxuan heard that Su Muling and Jing Ye were missing, his first reaction was to hurry back to find someone. He didn't think about it at all, whether this matter would be done by Su Muling on purpose.
At this moment, after being reminded by the two, he suddenly woke up.
But he didn't see Su Muling and Jing Ye standing in front of him in person, and he still couldn't rest assured.
******
Thousands of miles away in the town of Terring.
In Tingfeng Alley on the outskirts of the city, in a new house, a handsome little woman is holding a month-old child in her arms, and is basking in the sun on a chaise longue in the courtyard.
On one side, a girl with a bun held a parasol for her, and on the other side, a girl in a short dress with her hair in a bun was teasing the pink child.
"Xiao Shizi, come, arrest me......"
The little woman holding the child smiled happily: "If you like children, you can give birth to one yourself." ”
"I don't. Seeing the sins that the young lady suffered during childbirth, I vowed not to have children. ”
This beautiful young woman and baby are none other than Su Muling and Jing Ye who disappeared from Prince Ning's mansion.
Yesterday, Lord Qincha was going to take Su Muling and the prince back to Beijing. Su Muling had a premonition that the emperor was going to use Xiao Wenxuan again. At the same time, it is suspected that the emperor has put Xiao Wenxuan under house arrest in Beijing.
Su Muling returned to the backyard and struggled in every way......
Going back means becoming a pawn for the emperor to control Xiao Wenxuan. The emperor will use her life to threaten Xiao Wenxuan to be the crown prince and stuff women. And she, because she has a son, will not be able to get out as easily as before.
If she didn't go back, Lord Hu returned to the emperor, and she ended up resisting and disobeying the order. Not to mention that his life is difficult to protect, he has to affect Su Haoran's family.
After much thought, she decided to take the plunge. Called Wuying and Chen Sheng in, and together with Xichun Pomegranate, she put her thoughts ......
So, while Lord Hu was waiting in the front hall, Chen Sheng took the initiative to find Imperial Doctor Li.
"Didn't Imperial Physician Li say that there is not enough medicinal materials in the palace and need to be stocked, it just so happens that I am fine today, so I will accompany Imperial Physician Li, right?"
"That's good."
Someone offered to carry his bag for him, and Imperial Doctor Li was naturally happy.
The two prepared a carriage and left the palace, Chen Sheng and Imperial Physician Li came to the street that specialized in selling medicinal herbs, and Chen Sheng put Imperial Physician Li down.
"Imperial Doctor Li, you walk around here first. I suddenly remembered that I didn't do one thing that the prince told me, so I will come when I go. ”
Imperial Physician Li didn't doubt it, and waved his hand to let him go: "You're busy with you, just remember to pick me up later." ”
"Okay!"
Chen Sheng drove to the pier, picked a cruise ship, gave a deposit, and then came to Su Muling's house in the south of the city.
……
Su Muling, who stayed in King Ning's Mansion, had already packed up at this time and hurriedly took some clothes. Under the leadership of Wuying, he hugged Jing Ye and took Xichun into the tunnel in the bedroom.
After walking for about two quarters of an hour, they finally arrived at the house south of Su Muling City.
Su Muling and Xichun found out the cloth clothes they wore when they first came to Kuwu Island, and changed into the brocade clothes on their bodies. I found an ordinary cotton cloth and wrapped Jing Ye well.
Without much stop, they got into the carriage prepared by Chen Sheng at the door.
Chen Sheng waved his horsewhip lightly: "Drive", and the horse ran towards the dock.
On the pier, the cruise ship is ready.
Su Muling wore a veil on her head, hugged Jingye in her arms, pretended to be an ordinary woman, and left Kuwu Island under the protection of Xichun and Wuying.
At this time, it was the time when Master Hu was impatient to urge the girl for the second time.
As soon as Su Muling came ashore, Wuying hired a carriage and went directly to Tingfeng Lane on the outskirts of the city.
Here, is another house of Su Muling. It was Su Muling who prepared it just in case, but he didn't expect it to come in handy.
Xichun arranged for Su Muling's mother and son to sit down in the shade in the courtyard.
Wuying brought well water from the well behind the house, and Xichun wet the cotton cloth and began to wipe the house.
I removed the dust from the furniture, took out a new futon from the cupboard, and put a handful of ambergris in the incense burner in the house. Xichun went to the courtyard to invite Su Muling's mother and son in.
Jing Ye was sleeping sweetly in Su Muling's arms.
Su Muling gently put him on the bed, put himself on the side of the bed, and lay down on his side. But the ears listened vigilantly to the noise outside.
At this time, Prince Ning's mansion, Chen Sheng returned to the palace, and he sneaked into the backyard while people were unprepared.
Pomegranate was anxiously waiting for him, and when she saw him appear, she pulled him under the eaves and looked around and asked, "All is going well?" ”
Chen Sheng nodded: "It's on the boat." ”
"Okay, let's go."
After Pomegranate finished speaking, she roared and jumped up to the wall. Chen Sheng immediately followed, and the two disappeared outside the wall in an instant.
Lord Hu waited until he was hungry and no one came out, so he called the little girl to call.
The people in the palace were rewarded by the emperor, and Su Muling didn't believe it and didn't dare to put it by his side.
This little girl was bought by Su Muling on Kuwu Island, and she is clever and heartfelt.
The little girl heard that this adult was going to take the princess and the prince away and would not come back, so she was angry.
She was dying when she was bought by the princess, and she was about to freeze to death. It was the princess who saved her life and gave her a life of food and clothing.
The princess is a good person, she doesn't punish her subordinates easily, and the little girl is better here than at home. So when I heard that the princess was leaving, I was very unhappy that I didn't take them with me.
She promised Master Hu in her mouth, but she ran to the kitchen to eat a full meal, and then under the instruction of Pomegranate, she pretended to be panicked and ran out to report that the princess and the prince were gone.
At this time, Pomegranate and Chen Sheng had already dressed up as ordinary people, and took a boat to follow Terling Town to meet Su Muling.
It was already dark when Chen Sheng and Pomegranate arrived.
Chen Sheng carried two food boxes in his hands and smiled: "You haven't eaten, have you?" Bought it by the way. ”
Shadowless let them in.
"No one is following, is it?"
"Don't worry, no."
Chen Sheng brought the food box into the house, said hello to Su Muling, and Chen Sheng began to put the dishes on the table.
"The letter to the prince has been delivered?"
Su Muling hugged Jing Ye and sat down at the table.
"Sent out."
"No shadow, you go back to the island tonight. Tell my dad that he's safe. ”
"Yes."
******
At night, a black shadow flashed over Prince Ning's mansion. fell silently into the courtyard where Su Haoran's family lived.
Wuying gently knocked on Su Haoran's bedroom door.
Su Haoran's voice inside: "Who?" "Cautious and careful, obviously not sleeping yet.
"Master Su, I, no shadow." Footsteps were heard, and the door was opened.
Without a shadow entering the door, Su Haoran looked out for a while before closing it.
"How's it going? Ling'er is okay? ”
Su Haoran naturally knew about this plan. So he didn't get the news that Su Muling was safe, and he couldn't sleep peacefully.
"The princess has arrived safely in Terring. The princess asked me to tell Master Su not to worry about her. ”
"Okay, with you and Chen Sheng here, I don't worry. It's just that I don't know how You'an is, if he can't come back after being detained by the emperor, what can he do? ”
Su Haoran knew that Su Muling's escape was just an expedient measure, and what happened after that depended on Xiao Wenxuan's situation.
"Master Su, don't worry, we will have a way there."
"I know you're not ordinary people, and I believe you. Ling'er has your protection, I don't worry. You go back and tell Ling'er, don't worry about us. ”
"Okay, my subordinates will definitely bring it."
Shadowless opened the door, and the figure flickered and disappeared into the night.
Su Haoran closed the door, Ru Ping hurriedly came out of the room, and asked with concern, "How is the eldest lady?" ”
"She's fine. But in front of outsiders, we still have to pretend to be sad and sad......"
Su Haoran lowered his voice and hugged Ru Ping into the bedroom.
******
The imperial court passed the documents, and the most important thing was to expedite the eight hundred miles. Xiao Wenxuan's people conveyed the message faster and more secretively than eight hundred miles of urgency.
Xiao Wenxuan received a secret letter from Su Muling on the third day after he left Beijing, that is, the day Xiao Wenxuan suspected that Su Muling had kidnapped him under the guidance of Li Feng and Fang Ping.
After reading the secret letter, I learned that Su Muling and Jing Ye were safe. Xiao Wenxuan showed a rare smile on his face: this beautiful woman once again impressed him.
The emperor was in trouble, she not only protected herself and her son, but also helped him get rid of the emperor's imprisonment by the way.
The doubts and worries in his heart were removed, and Xiao Wenxuan fell asleep.
The next day, Xiao Wenxuan led people out of the post station and continued to gallop on the way home.
After resting all night, he was faster, and it didn't take long for the fifty guards to be thrown far behind him.
On a hillside with more than ten miles left before the next post station, a sturdy man in his thirties was holding a bow and arrow aimed at Xiao Wenxuan, who was galloping over......
"Whoosh" sharp arrows burst out of the air.
Xiao Wenxuan's heart fell to the ground with an arrow, and Xiao Wenxuan got off the horse and ran away with a neigh.
After Xiao Wenxuan rolled several times in a row, he fell into a turbulent river under the road.
"Lord Wang?"
"Lord Wang?"
Li Feng and Fang Ping instantly popped out of their horses and jumped into the water in a few leaps.
At this time, there was no longer Xiao Wenxuan on the water.
The corners of the man's mouth curled, and he lowered his body and disappeared into the dense forest.
Fifty guards then arrived, only to see Li Feng and Fang Ping being swept downstream by the river......
Three days later, the emperor received a secret message: Prince Ning was attacked on the road and fell into the water, and his life and death are unknown.
The emperor's eyes were dark, and he almost fell.
Gonggong An held him up and said sadly: "Why is there so much disaster for Prince Ning?" ”
The emperor's eyes were on fire, and he shouted loudly: "It's called Wu Hao." ”
Wu Hao, the secretary of the Criminal Department, listened to the rumor and came to the emperor as quickly as possible.
The emperor threw the secret document at his feet, gritted his teeth, and ordered: "Give me an investigation." Be sure to find out who is behind it. ”
Wu Hao picked up the secret document and glanced at it, his heart trembled, and he hurriedly responded.
