Chapter 289: Guessing Identity
Qin Xiang didn't sleep very well this night, tossing and turning all night, and didn't fall asleep until late at night. But he didn't sleep long before he woke up again. Looking out the window, it was gloomy.
She lightly bypassed the heavy rain that was sleeping, and stepped forward to push the window.
The sound of the rain broke in, but I don't know when it started to rain.
In early spring, there is still a bit of chill at the border. The breeze stirred the rain, dense and slanted, and the cold people shivered.
Qin Xiang hurriedly closed the window, saw that half of Xiaoyu's arm was exposed, and tucked the quilt for her again.
Fortunately, Xiaoyu was boundless yesterday, and it consumed a lot of physical strength, and he was tossed by Qin Xiang so much, and he didn't wake up.
Qin Xiang put on last night's dress, added another blouse, washed with cold water, and then went out.
At the counter, there was a shopkeeper dozing off. Sometimes he was blown by the wind from the open door, but soon he squinted and fell asleep.
There were a few people in the lobby, it was Chen Wuliu and them.
Seeing Qin Xiang coming down, everyone hurriedly bowed their hands: "The owner." ”
"How was your rest last night?"
"Okay."
"Sleep well."
Everyone replied one after another.
"Little Er, prepare some breakfast."
Xiao Er raised his hand and yawned and said, "The small shop does not provide food, and if the guest officer wants to eat, there is a noodle maker outside the door." ”
Zhao Jie hurriedly said: "The owner is waiting here, and his subordinates will come when they go down." ”
I called a few more people out, and in a few moments, I brought back bowls of steaming noodle soup.
The noodles weren't very good, but the soup was delicious. The weather is cool, and after eating a bowl of heat, the whole person is warm.
Halfway through the meal, there was a knock on the door of a room upstairs, and a boy in a cyan scholar's robe dragged out with one leg in his hands.
"Lin Gongzi, good morning. Let's have breakfast together, this noodle tastes very good. ”
Lin Zhan naturally didn't refuse, so he sat down with everyone and enjoyed the noodle soup.
Qin Xiang took the lead in finishing eating, wiped his mouth with a handkerchief and said, "The pharmacies on the street were closed last night, and there was no way to invite a doctor to come to the door. Later, find someone to accompany Lin Gongzi to the pharmacy and take a look at the leg injury first. ”
The wounds on Lin Zhan's body were only covered with some gold sore medicine last night, but it didn't help.
In addition to the small wounds on his body, the leg he broke was even more fatal.
Lin Zhan practiced martial arts by himself, and he tried it when he fell. His right leg was only sprained, but the bone was intact, which was a blessing in disguise.
When Lin Zhan was looking for a doctor to see the injury, Chen Jing and the others happened to walk into the town.
The group was gray-faced, their eyes were blue, their faces were haggard, and they walked crookedly and vainly.
Chen Jing yawned embarrassedly and wiped away the tears from his eyes.
They searched all night yesterday and found nothing. Later, I encountered the strange white fog, and I didn't dare to get close. Fleeing in the woods, he almost fell into the trap of a hunter to catch a bear.
And when he saw that it was dawning, it began to rain. It was very cold in the mountains, and the white fog was getting more and more turbulent. Chen Jing then gave an order and asked everyone to go down the mountain to repair first.
By the time they arrived in Dangya County, the group was already sleepy and hungry, and they didn't even have the strength to walk.
Suddenly, someone lowered his voice and said, "Look, isn't that our Highness?" ”
When Chen Jing heard this, he became excited and hurriedly looked in the direction he was instructing.
I saw a few people supporting a young man who had just walked out of a medical hall, and that son was none other than their Royal Highness the Crown Prince!
It was raining outside, and Qin Xiang was bored chatting with Xiaoyu in the lobby. The shopkeeper was also bored, so he lay on the counter and occasionally interjected a few words.
Qin Xiang took the opportunity to inquire about Xiadang Yashan again, this time without that Lin Gongzi, she could inquire generously.
Xiaoyu was a little puzzled, but it was not easy to ask.
At this moment, Chen Wuliu and the others returned, followed by a group of people.
"It's a coincidence, just after leaving the medical hall, I met Lin Gongzi's entourage."
Qin Xiang looked at Chen Jing and the others, and Chen Jing and his party also set their eyes on her.
On the way, Chen Wuliu introduced them as running merchants. As Lin Zhan's strategist, Chen Jing's ability to observe words and emotions is not small. After a little observation, I felt that there was a discrepancy with what Chen Wuliu described. But in front of outsiders, he is not easy to ask. I only feel that His Highness must have his deep meaning when he walks with these people.
For Chen Wuliu and others, he didn't have much interest. However, hearing that it was their female proprietor who saved His Highness, Chen Jing then set his eyes on Qin Xiang, who was sitting at the square table.
She looks seventeen or eighteen years old, with long hair like a waterfall and a beautiful posture like a begonia. A simple apricot-colored dress, and there are no accessories in her hair, only a silver hairpin.
Chen Jing expected that the female proprietor wanted to use this color to cover her temperament, but she didn't want a color that was difficult for ordinary people to show, and she wore it to make her more and more elegant.
He couldn't help but move his gaze to Lin Zhan's back, and secretly said: Before the coronation ceremony of other princes, there were governor's servants by his side. But His Royal Highness is now twenty-five years old, but he doesn't even have a lovely person. No wonder the Three Princes' Party wants to secretly slander His Royal Highness, saying that he doesn't like women, and he is a broken sleeve who wants to take the dry road.
Chen Jing didn't dare to ask more about this, but His Royal Highness not only had no interest in women, but also didn't have any special feelings for men. I think he is only a few years older than His Royal Highness, and he has to worry about his marriage like an old father.
Therefore, it is rare to see Lin Zhan take the initiative to get close to a woman, Chen Jing's eyes lit up, he rubbed his hands, and he couldn't wait to ask who this woman's surname was, where she lived, how many people were in the family, and she would come to the door to propose marriage at a convenient time.
Qin Xiang naturally didn't feel Chen Jing's excitement, but felt that this man with a mustache was full of obscenity. Especially when he smiled at her, the fine lines at the corners of his eyes wrinkled together, revealing a sense of ill will.
She immediately became alert and quickly looked away to avoid spicy eyes.
Lin Zhan's entourage came to thank Qin Xiang and send gifts to the door. The one named Chen Jing even inquired about Qin Xiang's condition.
Xiaoyu and the others became vigilant, but Qin Xiang was very familiar with his gaze. Just like the aunts she met in her previous life, they always used the eyes of picking high-quality pork, and they asked for a phone call or WeChat, so they had to introduce her to their school-age boys. Qin Xiang was embarrassed by politeness at first, but then he was so annoyed that he simply bought a ring to wear on his hand to show that he was married, so he was never disturbed again.
Now that the person has been found, Chen Jing and the others can't stay for long, so they can only leave with Lin Zhan. But the footsteps of leaving, how can there be a kind of reluctance.
Qin Xiang couldn't cry or laugh, but he also felt that he wouldn't have too much to do with them in the future.
She didn't know that not long after leaving the inn, Chen Jing mentioned the matter to Lin Zhan in a tone from a passerby, indicating that such a good woman should not be missed.
Lin Zhan looked at him with a smile and said, "You have been here in Xiyan for so long, and your eyes are not as good as before, and you didn't even notice that the woman was combing the married woman's hairstyle. ”
Chen Jing still had a big smile on his face, and when he heard this, he instantly collapsed, "The children of the eldest prince can make soy sauce, when are we going to see His Royal Highness." ”
Lin Zhan glanced at him and snorted lightly: "I didn't expect you Chen Jing to have a child relationship." ”
In the inn, there was no Lin Zhan and others, and it was a lot quieter.
Previously, because there were outsiders, Chen Wuliu and the others were very restrained, but now they are completely relaxed.
If Xiaoyu has a belly, he dares to ask quietly at this time.
Qin Xiang didn't hide it, and said to her seriously: "We met Lin Gongzi Pingshui, and it is not good to involve too much." I think that the white fog of Yashan is an opportunity to be used, if he is a villain, knowing our wishes, wouldn't it be dangerous? ”
Xiaoyu scratched her head and looked puzzled: "But didn't the owner trust Lin Gongzi very much before?" ”
Qin Xiang smiled mysteriously, "It's just a matter of face." ”
She is not really stupid Bai Tian, she has experienced two lifetimes and has seen a lot, so of course she must be a little wary of this sudden stranger. If she hadn't been too wary of Lin Gongzi on the mountain, and then after seeing his entourage, her heart would have sounded the alarm.
Those attendants seemed ordinary, but observing their speech and demeanor, it seemed that they had been specially trained.
Qin Xiang is very unfamiliar with this era, but she has watched a lot of film and television dramas. Observing their words and deeds, one conclusion is drawn that these retinues must not be raised by ordinary people. It's not so much an entourage as a guard.
There is also Na Lin Gongzi, outsiders are easily confused by his good looks. This person had been on guard since he first saw her. But he's a person who is used to hiding, and no one else has found out about it except her. If it weren't for Qin Xiang's own secrets, he couldn't tell them, and he probably wouldn't have found them.
Since it is a rich kid who came to the mountains to hunt, why is there so much to hide? And there are guards with strong martial arts by his side.
Qin Xiang had a faint guess, so he waited for Chen Wuliu to answer his questions.
"Commander Chen, have you ever seen a noble person with a similar appearance to that Lin Gongzi?"
Chen Wuliu is the commander of the forbidden army, often walks in the palace, and patrols inside and outside the palace during festivals. This profession is easy to offend people if you are not careful, so you must remember it clearly to the nobles in the capital to avoid collisions.
But he said, "I have never seen it." ”
He groaned for a while, and said, "I don't know if the owner has ever noticed that it is normal for Lin Gongzi to speak an authentic Beijing official dialect, and the one named Chen Jing." However, his subordinates had overheard a few of his entourages gossiping, and their accents were strange, not like they were from Xiyan. ”
Zhao Jie was also busy saying: "Yes, yes, I noticed that the short man leading the horse has a pair of amber eyes. The eyes of our Xiyan people have always been brown. Only Siddi have amber eyes! ”
Almost instantaneously in Qin Xiang's mind, a name flashed: Prince Xidi - Lin Zhan.
She hadn't seen Lin Zhan, but Han Yunxiao was no stranger to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. The two talked about it when they chatted, saying that his appearance followed his biological mother, and he was a rare handsome woman in the Sidi royal family. He was even humiliated because of his too handsome appearance. It's just that Lin Zhan's methods are violent and ruthless by nature, and the person who humiliated him will not end well in the end.
Qin Xiang's first impression of Prince Xidi was that he was handsome, exceptionally handsome.
Obviously, Lin Gongzi and Prince Xidi seem to have a relationship that can't be played together, but I don't know why, she just has a feeling in her heart that the two of them are one person.
