A strange thing happened in Wanchun County, and now everyone is talking about it in the streets and alleys.

Qinghefang disappeared from West Street, and no one knew why, so it was just empty overnight. Nearly 100 people in the workshop disappeared like that, the day before the incident, there was no warning, Qinghe Fang still welcomed guests, singing and dancing, but the next day, did not see the door open, and did not listen to any movement in the workshop. At night, when West Street is at its busiest, it is pitch black inside. Qinghefang is the most eye-catching building on West Street, seeing this scene, people are strange in their hearts, after a while, finally there are people who can't hold back their curiosity to climb the wall and carefully probe, but find that Qinghefang is furnished in it, but it has long been empty.

What made many nobles who came from Beijing to see the demeanor of Jing Nu even more depressed was that Jing Nu, as if she had disappeared in the capital a year ago, suddenly disappeared.

......

In a secluded residence near the east gate of Wanchun County.

Fenghua stood quietly in front of the open window, his white robe was thin and his figure was lonely.

Outside the window, is the clear river that winds in Wanchun County, the river water is clear, the sparse water vapor is permeated like smoke, it is already winter, the river water seems too cold and lonely, and the gusts of light wind blow in the face, with a penetrating coolness. The sky is dark and cloudy, which adds a bit of sadness to people's hearts.

Fenghua stood in front of the window with his hands in his hands and closed his eyes slightly.

Nearly half a month has passed since Ruoxin revealed the truth that day, and the trip that had already decided to return to Ke Lan has always been stagnant. Emperor Ke Lan did not know about Jingnu's death in Dongheng. However, Ke Lan and Dongheng are enemy countries after all, and Emperor Ke Lan is worried that Fenghua, who is the prince, will be in danger if he stays in Dongheng for too long, so he sent people to urge him several times, and Fenghua promised to return on the same day, but he never had the intention of leaving.

Early in the morning, he listened to the report of his subordinates, and news came from the capital that he had found the trace of the Bu Saintess, saying that near Changping Town, now the Dongheng Royal Royalty dispatched 300 forbidden troops and 500 black cavalry troops to Changping Town to arrest the Bu Saintess, hoping to force the Bu priest to appear.

Will she show up for Bai Ruxue?

The problem that does not need to be considered is that for the sake of him in the past, she will also go over the mountains and mountains to find medicine and catch snakes, and consume his mind to expel poison without thinking. Now, the person in distress is her sister, how can she not go to the rescue.

It's just that, looking at the current situation, just to arrest the Bu Holy Maiden, the Dongheng royal family put up the battle now, obviously to catch the priest of the Bu family no matter what.

Her strength is weak, even if she has a few people to help, how can she escape the round-up of the 800 Dongheng Army, but I am afraid that once she appears, there will be no possibility of escape.

The Dongheng royal family is jealous of the ability of the priest of the Bu family, and will not let her die, but he will not spare her so easily, and it is inevitable to suffer some hardships.

It's just that he still remembers the two guards beside her, who are dedicated to her, and they are afraid that they will die to protect their master's freedom at that time. At that time, after Ke Lan or Miao knew about it, she made a little trick between the Dongheng royal family and the Bai family, touching her bottom limit, with her character, although she always smiled and warmed slowly on weekdays, at that time, she was afraid that she would fight for both sides, and she would not give up.

Although Dongheng has declined slightly since the loss of the protector priest of the Bu clan as the royal protection a hundred years ago, it has always been strong in the Three Kingdoms. If things really went as he expected, it would be in the favor of Ke Languo.

It's just that he avenged the imperial sister, his wish has been fulfilled, and he can even use this to reduce Ke Lan's hidden worries, but why is there no joy in his heart now, and why is there a faint pain in his heart at this moment, like a sharp knife stabbing and pulling.

Exhaled softly, his indifferent eyebrows furrowed deeply unconsciously.

The door behind him was gently slammed, and outside the house, Tsing Yi called in a low voice: "Your Highness." ”

Regained his senses, Fenghua said lightly: "Come in." ”

Pushing open the door with one hand, Tsing Yi walked in across the threshold with a tray on which were several plates of vegetarian food that His Highness used most commonly used when he was in the Kelan Palace. Recently, he saw that His Highness had little appetite, so he specially prepared dishes from his hometown, hoping to let His Highness eat more.

When he walked into the inner room, he saw Fenghua standing in front of the window, and Tsing Yi said softly: "Your Highness, dinner is ready." ”

"Well, on the table." Fenghua didn't look back, but answered absentmindedly.

Walking to the table, Tsing Yi paused, looking at the lunch delivered at noon on the table as it was, it was already cold. And His Highness is still standing in front of the window, and it seems that he has not moved in any way and has never left. A look of pain crossed Tsing Yi's eyes.

Sensing that Tsing Yi was still in the house, Fenghua said, "It's nothing, you can go out." ”

Gently putting the food on the table, Tsing Yi hesitated for a long time, gritted his teeth, bent his knees, and knelt on the ground, "Your Highness, you have nothing to say." ”

Hearing the sound of Tsing Yi kneeling on the ground behind him, Fenghua slowly lifted his eyes and spoke, "What's the matter, let's get up and talk about it." ”

"Please give your Highness the sins, and the things and ...... without words Ruoxin girl related. ”

Ruoxin?

Fenghua finally turned around slowly, and looked at Tsing Yi who was kneeling with his head bowed and couldn't see his expression in surprise.

"Your Highness." Tsing Yi clenched her fists, and after struggling for a long time, she said: "The day after the princess was caught in the palace by the third prince of Dongheng, Miss Ruoxin rescued her. ”

After speaking, there was a dead silence in the room.

Fenghua stared straight at Tsing Yi, his handsome face was still calm, but his indifferent eyes suddenly set off layers of terrifying waves.

Tsing Yi has followed him since he was a child, and he allocated it to the imperial sister more than a year ago, and the original wordless name of Tsing Yi was also changed by the imperial sister later. Tsing Yi can be regarded as his most trusted attendant, and he has never deceived him, but now, when he suddenly heard his words, it was inconsistent with the previous facts, but he was shocked.

"What's going on?"

Listening to His Royal Highness's cold and calm tone, Tsing Yi's face was like earth, and he felt regret and pain in his heart, and replied: "A year ago, Luo Yi went to find His Royal Highness, leaving no word to check the situation outside the mansion, that is, on the second day, Wu Yan found that Miss Ruoxin entered the palace in the middle of the night, and half an hour later, she came out with a person, who was the princess. I didn't know what her intentions were, for fear that she would hurt the princess, so she didn't dare to show up easily, so she could only follow her from a distance and follow her to a ruined temple outside the capital. When she arrived, she put the princess on the ground and left. Wuyan wanted to take the princess away, but before and after, he found that he was ...... The princess has died. ”

Hearing this, Fenghua's eyes shrank suddenly.

The imperial sister was already dead at that time, so what did he see after that, could it be ......

My heart twitched for a while, and I listened to Tsing Yi continue: "I just found out that the princess had died, and Miss Ruoxin came back again, so she had no choice but to hide outside the temple again. Then I saw Ruoxin girl clean her hands and light incense, sit in front of the princess, put her hand on the princess's forehead and read something. After almost an hour, Wuxian saw the princess slowly waking up again. ”

It was she who brought the imperial sister back to life......

Ke Lan's divine envoy also has the ability to resurrect the dead, but he will not appear from generation to generation, nor will he inherit it as an heir, but he didn't expect that this generation would make him and Jingnu become divine envoys. In the past, the oracles were all one, but now, they are two, and the power of the oracles is scattered, and he does not know how the oracles of the past brought the dead back to life.

But he knew that the priests of the Bu clan did have the ability to bring the dead back to life, but every time they saved a person, they would damage their bodies by three points.

Although the rumors in the books have never recorded how it will be damaged, she once said that she would reduce her life, although she later denied it, but I am afraid it will not be false. I still remember that day she also said that coming back from the dead is in exchange for her own ability, and she will not become a normal person......

"After rescuing the princess, Miss Ruoxin said a phone call and left, and when she left, her face was worse than that of the princess." Thinking of the scene of that day, Tsing Yi's face was complicated, and he couldn't say what it was, "After the princess woke up, she didn't say a word. After staying in the ruined temple for two days, the princess was going back to the Three Princes' Mansion, and she couldn't stop her without saying a word. ”

As if his heart was pinched by something deeply, so tight that he couldn't breathe, Fenghua lowered his eyelids and asked lightly, "Why did you keep hiding from me before?" “

"Please give Your Highness the death penalty without words." Tsing Yi's face was in pain, and the fist on the ground trembled faintly because of excitement, "Miss Ruoxin rescued the princess, and the princess returned to the palace by herself." The subordinates were ashamed of His Royal Highness's entrustment and did not take good care of and protect the princess, if the subordinates could persuade the princess that day and delay until His Royal Highness arrived, what happened later would not have happened...... It's the incompetence of his subordinates, and the crimes of his subordinates deserve death......"

"And why are you telling me now?"

Tsing Yi put his head on the ground, reminding him of his sins in a hot pain, thinking of Ruoxin's warm smile, thinking of the medicine she gave him, and thinking of what she said to him, Tsing Yi choked up: "Because Ruoxin girl is very good, she shouldn't have this black pot on her back for nothing, she has obviously rescued the princess......"

He failed to dissuade the princess, which led to the tragedy that followed, and he did not have the courage to explain it to His Highness, because of his cowardice, he was afraid that he would lose His Highness's trust, so he kept it hidden.

And after coming into contact with Ruoxin, he became more and more disgusted with his cowardly self in the past, and that kind of guilt has been weighing heavily on his heart.

Fenghua slowly sat on the chair, did not speak, slowly raised his hand to his chest, pressed the hard object on his chest, and only felt that it was amazingly hot.

Tsing Yi knelt on the ground, and his head never lifted.

I don't know how long it took, until Tsing Yi called in a low voice to recall his divine sense, Fenghua found that the sky outside the house was already dark.

"Childe, you go and explain to Miss Ruoxin, she has affection for you and will understand."

Fenghua suddenly smiled faintly, with a slight bitterness and tiredness in his smile, and the vicissitudes between his eyebrows were even worse than before, "From the first step of the plan, I no longer had the possibility of being with her." ”

"Your Highness......" Tsing Yi choked.

Although Fenghua's tone was light, he could hear the deep emotions in his words.

After being silent for a long time, Fenghua slowly got up and ordered: "Chuan Fei ride, prepare pen and ink." ”

Now, there's only one thing he can do.

He sent a letter back to the emperor, saying that he had promised the emperor's uncle what he had proposed half a year ago, and asked the emperor's uncle to send a team of forbidden troops to come to Dongheng in disguise as soon as possible.

The matter is a foregone conclusion, and it is useless to regret it, all that can be done is to make amends......
