172 The Crown Princess Punished (Second Watch)

Xiao Liulang retracted his foot on the rope bridge.

"Do you want to go? Don't go, get out of the way! A big man behind him brutally pushed Xiao Liulang to the side.

"Hey! How do you push people? Rokuro! Liulang, come up quickly-" Feng Lin was already crowded on the bridge, he thought that Xiao Liulang would follow closely and also go to the bridge, but he didn't expect that his place would be robbed.

He reached out to grab Xiao Liulang.

But I couldn't catch it at all.

"You're back too!" Xiao Liulang said to him.

It's a pity it's too late.

There were too many people, and Feng Lin was quickly squeezed into the middle.

Lin Chengye was behind Xiao Liulang.

Xiao Liulang didn't go on the bridge, and he didn't go on either.

Gu Jiao still shouted not to come, the bridge was about to break, but unfortunately only the people who were about to go to the bridge heard it, and they didn't believe her when they heard it, so they shook their heads and went to the temple.

"Oops!"

Feng Lin was squeezed across the bridge, and one of them didn't stand firmly, stumbling two steps and falling.

He rubbed his aching knees and got up, and before he could see Gu Jiao not far away, he heard a scream behind him.

"Ahh

"Ahh

"Ahh

Feng Lin looked back.

Edi Niang!

The bridge is broken!

The bridge was not cut in the middle, but from the end near the temple.

The people on the bridge all fell into the bone-chilling water.

Xiao Liulang clearly saw that the strong man who had just pushed himself away was on the bridge and fell in the air.

He fell the hardest, because he stood tallest.

If Gu Jiao hadn't stopped herself, then the person who fell into the water was herself.

There is also Lin Chengye, who is behind him, and he can't avoid this disaster.

The people who fell into the water were like dumplings, struggling desperately in the icy river, and those who did not go to the bridge were so frightened that their legs were weak, and the holy land where the Buddha's light shone suddenly became a purgatory on earth.

Xiao Liulang looked at the slender little figure on the other side from afar.

How many times has this helped her avoid disaster?

The cold wind was cold, she was dressed in green clothes, her robe was agitated, and the green silk was blowing, like a little fairy in the white world.

Gu Jiao returned here from the stone arch bridge.

Feng Lin followed behind her with a pale face.

Really, he's going to be scared to death!

If he is one step late, he will be the one who falls!

And he was also extremely glad that Liulang and Lin Chengye didn't go to the bridge, otherwise where would they be able to hide?

Thinking of this, Feng Lin's legs seemed to have done too many bad things, and he couldn't walk anymore.

"Hurry up." Gu Jiao urged.

"Ah......h

She did what she could, and the rest was not for her to interfere with.

What's more, what does the world have to do with her, all she cares about is that person.

The four of them met and came to Lin Chengye's carriage.

Steward Zhou saw that the four of them came out safely, and breathed a long sigh of relief: "Oh my God, I'm scared to death!" I'm scared to death! I just heard someone say that the rope bridge was broken, and I wondered if the sixth prince and you were also on the bridge...... I...... I ......"

Lin Chengye patted Steward Zhou's back soothingly.

It was also at this time that Lin Chengye realized that it was not easy for Zhou to manage things.

may be particularly fragile for the rest of his life, in his heart, he has always taken Steward Zhou as a person, but at this moment, he inexplicably saw a little bit of the shadow of his old father on Steward Zhou's body.

Lin Chengye had a sour nose.

"Get in the car." Steward Zhou said with a choked smile.

Several people got into the carriage.

Although Xiao Liulang and Lin Chengye were saved, the few people in the carriage still seemed to be a little unable to come to their senses.

Feng Lin and Lin Chengye didn't hear Gu Jiao's words, and they couldn't get on the rope bridge until Xiao Liulang was pushed away.

The two of them were so shocked by the accident that they forgot to ask Gu Jiao how she appeared here, and they arrived at the temple one step ahead of them.

The carriage soon arrived at Lin Chengye's house, and Steward Zhou picked up the curtain and said with a smile to Lin Chengye and Feng Lin: "Sixth son, Feng Gongzi, you get off first, and I will send Xiao Xie Yuan and Xiao Niangzi back." ”

"Oh." Lin Chengye answered and got out of the carriage with Feng Lin.

Both of them needed to be suppressed.

The carriage continued to Bishui Hutong.

Steward Zhou sat in the parking space, with the coachman.

Only Xiao Liulang and Gu Jiao were left in the carriage.

Xiao Liulang glanced at Gu Jiao, she always carried a basket with her small medicine box on her back when she traveled.

She didn't bring anything with her today.

It can be seen that I am really in a hurry to go out.

He looked at her for a moment: "How do you know that the rope bridge will break?" ”

Gu Jiao's face did not change and said: "Oh, a few days ago, a patient came to the medical hall, and he just went to Puji Temple to make incense and came back, saying that the rope bridge there is in disrepair, and I am afraid it will not take long." Today, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, so many people go to grab the first incense, and the rope bridge will definitely not be able to bear your weight. ”

In her previous life, she had undergone polygraph training, and she could control even small micro-expressions.

Xiao Liulang looked at her deeply: "But there are two bridges there, how do you know that we will take a long way to take the rope bridge?" Did you know in advance that a noble person would come this morning and seal the stone arch bridge? ”

Gu Jiao spread her hands: "Of course I don't know, I haven't been to Puji Temple, don't you know that there is a stone arch bridge?" The patient didn't mention the stone arch bridge, I thought it was only the rope bridge. ”

The logic worked perfectly, provided that there was a patient with whom she complained about the disrepair of the rope bridge.

There is no way to verify this Xiao Liulang.

But Xiao Liulang always felt that this matter had nothing to do with whether the evidence was evidence or not.

He looked at Gu Jiao: "Are you ......?"

Isn't it anything?

When he asked this, Xiao Liulang didn't believe it himself.

I thought that a small medicine box would be enough for him to ponder, but who expected it to be far more than that.

Her secrets are no less than his.

Xiao Liulang finally swallowed all his doubts.

Fooled around, happy!

Gu Jiao shook her head, revealing a proud little expression with the same style as Xiao Qingkong.

Xiao Liulang: ...... Is it really good to show the stuffing so quickly? I don't want to lose face?

"Xiao Jieyuan, Xiao Niangzi, it's here." Outside the curtain, Steward Zhou said.

The two got out of the carriage, Xiao Liulang thanked him, and suddenly there was a whining sound from the small clear space in the courtyard, and the two looked stunned!

The last time I made a big fuss about my aunt, I still remember it vividly.

Today, Gu Jiao was in a hurry, forgot to wake up the little guy, and told him that she had gone out.

If he woke up and found that he hadn't slept in Gu Jiao's bed last night, then he would have to feel that this sleep was in vain!

However, when the two entered the backyard with trepidation, they saw Xiao Jingkong happily playing in the snow with a puppy, seven chickens and a young eagle.

Gu Jiao: ...... Well? Am I not important?

Xiao Jingkong saw Gu Jiao and Xiao Liulang, and he ran over: "Jiaojiao Jiaojiao!" ”

Excited little voices.

"Bad brother-in-law."

A low, small voice.

Gu Jiao opened her mouth: "That, I ...... just now"

Xiao Qingkong said cutely: "I know, I know!" Jiaojiao has gone to incense! Jiaojiao wants the Buddha to bless me to grow taller! ”

Gu Jiao: What's the situation?

Xiao Jingkong's eyes seemed to have stars: "Master, his old man has been here~"

The conversation shifted a little fast.

Gu Jiao blinked in a daze, and saw Xiao Jingkong take out a piece of paper from a small box in the snow and hand it to Gu Jiao: "Jiaojiao, look!" ”

Here's a ...... Well...... What the?

Gu Jiao couldn't read the words on it.

Xiao Liulang looked at it and was also a little surprised: "Liang Guo's deed." ”

Gu Jiao: Is this a house speculation abroad?

Gu Jiao gave Xiao Liulang a look that could only be understood, it couldn't be a fake house deed that you and your aunt and grandfather deliberately made up to comfort the little guy, right?

Xiao Liulang pointed to a seal: "The real house deed has the official seal of the yamen." ”

Gu Jiao: "......"

Gu Jiao learned from Xiao Jingkong that the master came in the middle of the night, so she left the gift and left.

Gu Jiao asked, "Then did you see him?" ”

Xiao Jingkong thought for a while: "See! See! ”

Children are always very firm in their beliefs, as long as they want to see, they see what they don't see!

Gu Jiao said again: "Did you open the door for him?" ”

Little Clearance: "Yes! Oh, yes! ”

Children sometimes talk really as they please!

The main reason is that Xiao Jingkong believes that he opened the door for the master, and he also spent a pleasant night with the master!

Xiao Qingkong shook his head and went to play.

There is also a letter in the box, which is Gu Jiao's miserable handwriting, the letter said that she was going to grab the incense stick, so that the Buddha would bless the clear space to grow tall, afraid that it would be unsafe for him to sleep alone, so he took him to his aunt's bed first.

Gu Jiao looked at Xiao Liulang: "This is not true, is it?" ”

Xiao Liulang spread his hands: "It's not me." ”

He really can't write this kind of word.

The old sacrificial wine next door finally breathed a sigh of relief from the huge prostration, and he imitated the name of the famous painter to be caught, but the words of imitating Xiao Engong almost killed him-

……

The incident of the breakage of the rope bridge was so loud that the news could not be suppressed at all, and it reached the palace at night.

The person who closed the road was also picked up, and it was the crown princess.

The crown princess released the news that she was going to Puji Temple to offer incense, so the deputy commander of the Praetorian Guard closed the road and bridge for her and even blocked the street.

If this matter was not a big deal in the past, after all, it is impossible for the royal family to travel without pomp.

As long as nothing happens, everything is easy to say.

But the problem is that something happened, or is it a matter of human life!

His Majesty said that he couldn't sit still, his anger had nowhere to vent, and it was not good to scold a woman, so he called the prince to the imperial study and scolded him: "Look at the good things you have done!" On the first day of the Lunar New Year, at the beginning of the national fortune, you two poked such a big basket for me! Are you sitting too firmly on my throne? Want to find some fault for me? ”

The prince is also aggrieved, that royal family has no pomp and circumstance? What's more, it was the crown princess, the future mother of the Zhao Kingdom, not to mention that she just sealed a road and a bridge, but she sealed the temple today, and it is not a mistake to not allow others to enter the incense.

It's not that the crown prince favors the crown princess, it's that the royal family has always been like this.

This is not only the pomp and circumstance of the royal family, but also the rules of the royal family.

Unless the crown princess is a private person.

But then her safety will not be guaranteed.

However, now that His Majesty is angry, the prince does not dare to refute a word.

His Majesty continued to scold: "Can't you learn from the third child? What do people's daughters-in-law do? What happened to your daughter-in-law? ”

Because the third princess followed Gu Jiao's advice and selected a large number of water-aware people from her own guards and praetorian guards to take to the back door of the temple, the moment the rope bridge broke, she immediately ordered them to go down to the river to save people.

The river is not turbulent, and everyone is holding on to the planks of the rope bridge, as long as they are rescued in time, they will not freeze to death in the river.

The vast majority of those who fell into the water were rescued, and the casualties were minimized.

Most of them are candidates for next year's spring semester.

It is conceivable that if it is not saved, it will bring a lot of talent loss to the entire imperial court!

His Majesty used to have a very good impression of the crown princess, after all, she was a person who had a marriage contract with the young man's sacrificial wine, and the two grew up as childhood sweethearts, so the child was so good, where could she be worse?

At the beginning, this family business was a little inappropriate.

The crown prince is Xiao Heng's cousin.

How could he ask to marry the surviving of his cousin?

But Wen Linlang is really good, Xiao Heng has passed away for so long, and the prince really likes it, after many considerations, His Majesty still agreed to this family business.

Wen Linlang did not disappoint the royal family, don't look at her background is not outstanding among the princesses, but her talent, mind, vision, and ability are far better than the rest of His Majesty's daughters-in-law.

This kind of thing happened today, which His Majesty never expected.

His Majesty continued to scold: "Do you know how much resentment the people have now? If it weren't for the third daughter-in-law who took action in time today and saved everyone, your father and I would have come up with an edict tomorrow! ”

The king of a country will write an edict to accuse the world if he makes a huge mistake, which is tantamount to slapping the royal family in the face.

No emperor is willing to condemn himself.

This will go down in history and will be remembered for thousands of years!

The prince was scolded bloody.

It took an hour to hold his sore knees and go back to the East Palace.

The three princesses made great contributions, and His Majesty rewarded her with a thousand taels of gold, and issued a holy decree to canonize the three princes as the king of Rui, and the three princesses as the princesses of Rui.

This is the first prince to be crowned a king after the canonization of the crown prince.

It stands to reason that if you want to be sealed, you should start with the eldest prince.

But none of the civil and military officials spoke out against it, there is no way, so many lives, so many future pillars of the imperial court!

Even the most poisonous mouth, the Imperial Tower, was silenced.

The Three Princes...... Now it's time to call King Rui.

King Rui took his daughter-in-law into the palace and kowtowed to His Majesty to thank him.

His Majesty was very happy, he used to think that this son was not very promising, but his daughter-in-law was so capable, at least he and Concubine Yu had the same eye for provoking.

His Majesty King Liurui played two games of chess.

Princess Rui went to the queen to ask for peace, went to Concubine Zhuang and Concubine Yu to ask for peace, and then went to the imperial garden to wander.

Turning around, he came to the gate of the East Palace.

"You." She pointed to the female official Xu, "Go in and report it, and say that this princess wants to see the crown princess." ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Be. "Lady Xu went hard.

After a short time, Lady Xu walked out, followed by a smiling grandmother.

Mama said: "It turned out that Princess Rui was here, and she was disappointed, but it is inconvenient for the princess to meet guests now." ”

Princess Rui smiled: "Isn't it just that I was grounded by my father?" I didn't want her to come out, I went in to see her! ”

Anyway, regardless of whether the grandmother invited her or not, she lifted her skirt and crossed the threshold and went to the princess's East Pavilion Courtyard.

The crown princess was kneeling on a mat in the warm pavilion and copying Buddhist scriptures.

"Yo, sister-in-law, what are you doing?" Princess Rui walked in with an eyebrow raised.

"Princess Rui!"

"Stand down."

A palace maid wanted to step forward to stop Princess Rui, but was stopped by the crown princess.

The palace maid Nono stepped back.

Princess Rui sat down on the cushion across from her.

Female official Xu didn't dare to follow up, and waited outside the door with the grandmother and palace maid of the East Palace.

The crown princess gently put down her pen and looked at Princess Rui with a calm expression: "I don't know why Princess Rui came to me today?" ”

Princess Rui said with a smile: "I heard that you were grounded, I was afraid that you would be bored, so I came to accompany you to relieve your boredom." Don't blame me for being late, I just heard about your grounding this morning. ”

The crown princess didn't answer, picked up the pen, and continued to copy the Buddhist scriptures.

Princess Rui will not feel bored just because she doesn't care about herself, she has been living in the shadow of Wen Linlang for twenty years, and finally there is a time when she doesn't have to be pressed by Wen Linlang.

Princess Rui smiled: "If you don't feel comfortable, just say it, you don't have to pretend that you don't care." ”

"I'm not uncomfortable." The crown princess said calmly.

Princess Rui smiled: "I heard that it's not you who want to travel, it's your mother's family who borrowed your name, why don't you explain it to your father?" ”

Princess Rui is stronger than the crown princess here, Princess Rui's maiden family never dragged her down, because her maiden family has the backer of the Luo Guogong Mansion, which is strong enough.

Wen Linlang is different, the Wen family has declined, her father is seriously ill at home, and her brother is just a small Dali Temple master.

Of course, Princess Rui understands that the crown princess can't explain it, and some things are getting darker and darker, and it will give His Majesty the illusion that she will only shirk responsibility if something happens.

The crown princess said casually: "I heard that Princess Rui was already gathering people before the rope bridge broke, I don't mean anything else, I just want to ask Princess Rui how to not know the prophet." ”

Princess Rui's apricot eyes glared: "What do you mean?" Do you suspect that I broke the bridge on purpose? I'm not so black-hearted! ”

Crown Princess: "Then how do you know?" ”

"I ......" the third princess choked.

In fact, she didn't understand how Miss Gu knew, after she saved people, Miss Gu had already left, and she was also worried about whether Miss Gu had anything to do with the breakage of the rope bridge, so she never mentioned her to anyone for the sake of prudence.

The medical hall has not yet opened, and she doesn't know where Miss Gu lives.

The crown princess tugged at the corners of her lips and continued to copy Buddhist scriptures.

Princess Rui realized that she was being led away by the nose, she was annoyed and angry, and quickly replied: "Do you think that my father did not investigate? The bridge looks like it's in disrepair, and it's no wonder if you drive all the pilgrims over it! ”

His Majesty did investigate, and there were indeed no traces of human touch.

However, the crown princess's face still did not show the frustration that Princess Rui wanted.

Princess Rui narrowed her eyes.

It's so easy to press her back, how can you not see that kind of lost soul?

Princess Rui propped her elbows on several cases, and slowly approached the other party: "Actually, not long ago, I just heard about something, and I don't know if it's true, so I came to ask the imperial sister-in-law." ”

The crown princess ignored her.

Princess Rui hooked her lips and smiled: "I heard that the night the little marquis had an accident...... I'm waiting for you in the country. ”

The crown princess's brush sizzled, and a long ink mark was drawn on the paperβ€”
