Chapter 191: Actually, no one wins
Qi Wenyuan was stunned, and after a moment, he suddenly reacted and asked Qi Yu, "That figure just now, is it Chen Yuanjia?" β
Qi Yu looked around for a moment, "It seems to be Third Young Master Chen, and the slave looks at the clothes." β
Chen Yuanxue's frowning brows loosened, his eyes looked at the direction of Chen Yuanjia's distance in shock, and some thoughts in his mind seemed to be changing.
There was an extra night of wind and snow in Nanshan.
This is an extremely bad thing for people to look for, and they can still judge their whereabouts and what happened according to their footprints, but ......
That heavy snowfall, as if it was deliberately covering up everything, came reasonably, but it made matters worse.
Chen Yuanjia rode the horse under him, his eyes were full of worry in a pair of evil peach blossom eyes, and Gao Changle's whereabouts were unknown at the moment, which had completely exceeded everyone's expectations.
Originally......
Chen Yuanjia did not chase Gao Changle to Nanshan because he saw that Zhou Hao deliberately led Qi Wenyuan elsewhere, and he discussed it with Gao Changle in advance.
Going to Nanshan is not a momentary bravery, even if something happens, at least Gao Changle can deal with it.
But I didn't expect it.
One night.
Chen Yuanjia didn't sleep all night, but he never waited for the news that Gao Changle was rescued, but instead came with the words unknown whereabouts and uncertain life and death.
Now, even the best heart can't bear it.
Even if he has had a shadow and grievance against the horse since he beat his father and died on the battlefield, he has not touched it for many years, but now, he can't care too much.
The fear and fear in my heart are not as much as the worry is coming.
Even if he was afraid that his lips were purple and his whole body trembled, Chen Yuanjia was determined to bless him
The north wind was howling, especially the climate in the mountains was even colder, and it didn't take long for Chen Yuanjia's eyebrows to be dyed with wind and snow, and his hair turned gray in an instant.
"I saw the eldest princess in Nanshan before she disappeared, right?"
Chen Yuanjia came at a gallop all the way, but among the people who were looking for it in Nanshan, there were only two people, Yuan Yi and Yuan Hao, who did not see Li Shao's figure.
It seems that I remembered something.
Chen Yuanjia's eyes were sharp.
Yuan Yi and Yuan Hao didn't know Chen Yuanjia, and when they saw that they suddenly broke into such a teenager, they caught the key so bluntly, but they didn't have a good face.
The factory guards of the East Factory do not need to obey the orders of others.
Yuan Yi and Yuan Hao ignored Chen Yuanjia.
Chen Yuanjia's eyes were cold, "If you want to find the eldest princess, tell me quickly, whether you saw that the eldest princess was in danger and failed to save it, or did you really enter Nanshan and did not see the eldest princess." β
The second scenario is clearly impossible.
The Dongchang factory guards came so quickly, even if Gao Changle came to Nanshan first, he really encountered danger, but he didn't even see each other.
If it weren't for the heavy snow that covered the original traces, would he really be willing to talk nonsense with these Dongchang fans?
The expressions on Yuan Hao and Yuan's faces changed slightly, although they did not directly answer Chen Yuanjia's question, but the expressions on their faces already explained everything.
"Where?"
Chen Yuanjia didn't bother to talk nonsense with these, "Where was the last time I saw the eldest princess?" β
As soon as this question was asked, Chen Yuanjia took the opportunity to look at the mountain peak cliff behind Yuan Yi and Yuan Hao, his frowning brows were loosened, and his eyes were shocked, "Is it above this cliff?" β
"Lord Li also fell?"
There is hardly any doubt about it.
Li Shao came out of Changle Palace, and he has always maintained Gao Changle in every way, but the current situation is so urgent but Li Shao is not seen, so ......
It was not only Gao Changle who fell under the cliff, but also Li Shao!
Yes.
It was on the cliff behind Yuan Yi and Yuan Hao that they saw the last side of Gao Changle and Li Shao.
Chen Yuanjia immediately pulled the reins and walked towards another mountain road towards the top of the cliff.
Yuan Hao stepped forward to stop, "There is heavy snow in the mountain, if you go up the mountain at this time, it may be dangerous." β
Those who can come to the hunting ground to hunt have more or less identities in the end, but don't Gao Changle and Li Shao didn't find it, and if they put another one in, I'm afraid that Emperor Jiayuan will be even more angry.
Chen Yuanjia sat on the horseback painfully with his trembling body, turned around and stared at Yuan Hao with a faint gaze, "If you want to find them, it's best to send two factory guards to follow me." β
"Drive!"
As soon as the words fell, Chen Yuanjia's figure quickly rushed out.
Yuan Hao and Yuan Yi looked at each other, "What should I do?" β
"What is the origin of this kid, do you believe it or not?" Yuan Yi's heart gave birth to a little hesitation, and the expression on Yuan Hao's face was also very solemn.
"That's it, Zuo is just two factory guards, even if he really gave him no big deal."
"You two, follow behind him, do whatever you are told to do, and come back and forth in time if there is an abnormal situation."
Yuan Hao casually pointed to the two factory guards behind him.
"Yes."
"Let's keep looking."
"I hope the Overseer is fine."
ββ
Qingyu Palace.
The north wind blows the broken snow, and the green bricks are covered with hoarfrost, although the current situation is not as cold as in the palace before, but Mama Xu is still used to holding a broom to sweep the broken snow on the green bricks of the stone steps little by little.
"Mama Xu."
Footsteps suddenly sounded on the long street outside the palace, creaking the piled up of broken snow.
Pu Jia hurriedly screamed, Xu Mama thought at first that she had misheard, and when she didn't want the voice to sound again, she turned around and saw Gao Changhuan with a gloomy face.
Mama Xu hurriedly put down the broom and stepped forward, "Fourth princess...... You're ......"
In this palace, if you want to say that Gao Changhuan really has feelings, I am afraid that it is this Mama Xu, who has been taking care of her since she was a child, compared to the invisible and untouchable Li Guifei, and even Emperor Jiayuan, she is more valued by Gao Changhuan.
Obviously, when he left, he happily followed Emperor Jiayuan out of the palace to hunt, but before the day of returning to the palace, Gao Changhuan came back with a gloomy face......
What happened is self-evident.
Mama Xu looked at Pu Jia's eyes like asking for help, and after reacting, she stepped forward to welcome Gao Chang, "It's cold, the four princesses have worked hard all the way, can Mama go and add you a bowl of hot tea?" β
Gao Changhuan nodded and entered the dormitory.
Mama Xu took the time to pull Pu Jia aside and asked worriedly, "What happened, why did you go back to the palace early?" β
Pu Jia lowered her voice and briefly explained what happened to Mama Xu, "There was an accident on the hunting ground." β
"The fourth princess and the third princess had a dispute, saying that they were going to Nanshan to compete to see whose riding and archery was better, but the eldest princess encountered danger in Nanshan, and the factory guards of the East Factory collectively dispatched, but still failed to find the trace of the eldest princess, and the emperor was furious, so he ordered the fourth princess and the third princess to be sent back to the palace alone."
"I said that I had to think about it, unless I found the eldest princess, I would never want to go out of this palace again in my life."
"It snowed heavily overnight in the mountains, I'm afraid it's ......"
Pu Jia's hands were a little cold, "I'm afraid I can't find it back." β
If you don't know Gao Changhuan and don't know her character, you may still think that Gao Changle has a chance to survive, but Pu Jia has served Gao Changhuan for many years, how can she not understand?
Gao Changhuan either didn't make a move, or he didn't make a move.
Even Emperor Jiayuan couldn't escape Gao Changhuan's calculations, let alone the young eldest princess?
"This ......"
"This ......"
"How's that good?" After Mama Xu heard this, her face immediately changed.
"If you can't leave the palace, how will you marry in the future?"
If a woman can't get married, won't she have to die in the palace all the time?
Mama Xu is an authentic woman in the old society, and the three from the four virtues are extremely important, the reason why she has been struggling in the palace at such an old age is that she looks forward to seeing the marriage and children who are tall and happy one day, and she is worthy of the concubine.
But I didn't expect it......
The corners of Mama Xu's eyes suddenly moistened, and even her body trembled.
"Mama, now you are the only one who can persuade the fourth princess."
"When leaving, the fourth princess seemed to have an argument with the emperor."
Pu Jia is Gao Changhuan's slave, although she can't be mentioned as Gao Changhuan's confidant, but at least Gao Changhuan is not bad to her, even if she has a poor life in the past, she has not deducted the monthly case of harshly criticizing her.
After being valued by Emperor Jiayuan again, he was generous to her, and even helped her a lot in her family, so ...... Pu Jia is afraid of Gao Changhuan, but she also hopes that Gao Changhuan will be favored.
Mama Xu's body trembled a little, and she held Pu Jia's hands tightly, "Girl, okay, Mama knows what you mean." β
"Mama, let's go to the front of the fourth princess and talk about it."
"Okay." Pu Jia was relieved, "The slave maid prepares hot tea for you, and you bring it to the fourth princess." β
Gao Changhuan only felt that his heart was unusually irritable, and he returned to the dormitory, as if he was angry with himself, and broke all the plums that originally bloomed in the cloisonnΓ© porcelain vase next to the hollow carved window.
The red and bright plum petals fell to the ground messily, red like blood.
When Mama Xu came in, she saw such a scene, under her wrinkled eyes, her cloudy eyes were wet, "Fourth princess, you used to like this plum the most." β
It's not Gao Changhuan's favorite, it's Li Shao's favorite.
In the past, Gao Changhuan should have been unable to find the slightest fault for Li Shao in other places except that he didn't really love Li Shao in his heart.
Hearing this, the corners of Gao Changhuan's lips couldn't help but raise a sneer, "No, Mama, I have never liked this plum." β
"Never liked it."
"I loathe, loathe it!"
She's just not reconciled.
is unwilling to lose to Gao Changle in her past life and this life, the person she looks down on the most, but ......
Although this hunting trip was reprimanded and sent back by Emperor Jiayuan, it was not for nothing.
There were so many killers in Nanshan who were ambushed, and they chased Gao Changyan wrongly, but even God was helping her, it snowed like this, and she stayed up all night in the mountains, and after coming out, she was going to starve to death if she didn't freeze to death.
What happened to Rebirth?
Gao Changle is still a pampered princess when she is reborn, and she is not a peasant girl who grew up in the mountains, so if she stays alone in the mountains for a day, even if there are no wild wolves and other ferocious beasts, I am afraid that she will not survive.
As long as he remembered that Li Shao was anxiously searching for Nanshan but to no avail, Gao Changhuan's heart was inexplicably happy.
She didn't believe that after Gao Changle died, Li Shao would never marry?
Take 10,000 steps back.
Even if Li Shao doesn't marry for the rest of his life, that's good.
What she couldn't get, Gao Changle couldn't have, at least she was still alive, but Gao Changle died.
No matter how you look at it, she wins more.
Gao Changhuan's cold eyes became ruthless little by little, and Mama Xu, who was watching her reaction like this, was distressed, "Fourth princess, why do you bother." β
"We're getting better now."
"Why do you have to get along with yourself?"
Gao Changhuan was raised by Mama Xu since she was a child, Gao Changhuan had a friendly and kind personality when she was a child, even if such a big change happened in the Li family, she never complained about the heavens and people, or she was blinded by hatred, but she just wanted to live a good life with Lord Li.
Mama Xu looked distressed and pitiful.
But unconsciously, the fourth princess had a grudge against the eldest princess, and she frequently couldn't get along with the eldest princess.
It's not the first time that something has happened on the hunting ground.
And also......
In the Hanshan Temple, Gao Changle was attacked.
Mama Xu was far away at the time and couldn't hear it very clearly, but she obviously saw that Gao Changhuan had contact with Bai Shuyuan, the palace maid Hongyu next to Bai Guifei, who was now Bai Guifei, before Gao Changle's accident.
It is precisely because she is old and her hearing is not good that Gao Changhuan did not shy away from her.
But Qingyu Palace and Bai Guifei have never had any contact, but Gao Changhuan and Hongyu met privately, which ......
Even if you don't have to think about it, you should know what you're planning, and it's definitely not a good thing.
It's just that Mama Xu at that time didn't expect Gao Changhuan to deal with Gao Changle.
Gao Changle accompanied the Nine Emperors of Northern Yan to hang out, and Gao Changhuan accompanied Emperor Jiayuan every day......
And also......
This Gao Changhuan, who frequently went in and out of Qianyuan Palace during that time!!
Why bother?
Why can't you get along with yourself, why can't you get along with Gao Changle?
It is already a well-known thing that the eldest princess is favored, no matter what the eldest princess is, Emperor Jiayuan's love for the eldest princess will not change, and if you force each other to fight, you will only end up losing both.
Throughout the ages, there have been constant struggles in this palace, but no matter who wins or loses, there is no real winner.
No one won.
To a greater or lesser extent, they will lose some of their most precious things, youth, time, cronies, family, and love......
Gao Changhuan in the past was not a person who competed for fame and fortune, how could he still be as calm as a mirror when he was left out, but after being favored, he was so competitive?
Is it true that the word "right" changes a person's nature?
