Chapter 46: Heavy Rain (2nd Watch)
After saying goodbye to Shen Rufeng, An Huajin took Chu Siyan and continued to hurry.
Leaving Chunshuidu, Chu Siyan was a little afraid, "Xiao An'er, I have read a lot of painting books, the emperor's favorite concubine, blowing the wind on the pillow to be a blessing and a demon, framing loyal ministers, persecuting virtuous people, that flower is like jade, if you enter Beijing, if she wears small shoes for you and wants to harm you, with Your Majesty's support, Your Majesty listens to her, what can you do?" ”
An Huajin disagreed, "In a short period of time, she shouldn't be able to make a big splash." ”
"Then you must kill her before she makes a big splash." Chu Siyan sharpened her knife.
An Huajin laughed, "You are His Majesty's favorite concubine, can you be so easy to destroy?" After so many years and so many generations, since the founding of Taizu, no one has ever reached into the harem. ”
"What then? You don't care about her? Waiting for her revenge? Chu Siyan was terrified.
"Nature can't sit still." An Huajin shook his head, "What I think is, is Your Majesty really because of the case of the Six Princes and the Fang Family, and suddenly remembered Zhang Zaifu and ran to see him?" Or did someone deliberately lead His Majesty to the heavenly prison and deliberately keep Hua Ruyu? ”
"Huh?" Chu Siyan was shocked.
Can it be like this?
"I'll guess, everything will have to wait until after entering Beijing." An Huajin thought that Gu Qingyan must know what was going on. Is it a coincidence, or is someone doing it on purpose. After all, Grandpa Zhang is his person, and His Majesty's every move cannot be concealed from Grandpa Zhang.
Chu Siyan nodded, now she also wants to go back to Beijing soon, to see how favored the flower is like jade.
Hua Ruyu is indeed very favored, although the court and harem are staring at Hua Ruyu's identity, the emperor feels that people's words are terrible, and it is not good to give Hua Ruyu a position, but he is really spoiled.
Shen Rufeng said that it is nothing to pet for half a month in a row, at least, it is a month of spoiling until the day of Qixi Festival.
It stands to reason that how many beauties has the emperor seen over the years? Although Hua Ruyu is the first beauty in the rivers and lakes, with a beautiful face, the emperor should not be fascinated, don't want it, but on the contrary, the emperor is fascinated every night to go to Hanxiang Palace to stay, grandpa turned over the brand of Hua Ruyu, and even the nobles fell out of favor because of Hua Ruyu.
Fengqi Palace, which should be lined up to go to the palace on the fifteenth day of the new year, is also because the flowers are like jade, and only do it during the day, and make a fuss, and do not stay overnight.
What hasn't the queen experienced over the years? Naturally sit still. But the rest of the harem can't sit still.
The concubines of the palace all found the queen here at once, and in the past month, the harem has been full of complaints.
The queen still saw the emperor on the fifteenth day of the first month, and felt that he looked like a mighty tiger and a good spirit, and he didn't look like he had been sucked dry of yang energy, so he could hold it, and he didn't listen to the noisy concubines of the concubines, but beat the concubines of the palace, so that they could be honest.
The concubines and concubines of the palace died down all of a sudden, not because they didn't want to go, but someone made this up-and-coming bird, and was cleaned up by others, and directly sued the emperor, and the emperor made a holy decree to demote people to the cold palace.
Who wants to go to the cold palace? It's not that I want to die.
The concubines didn't get good in front of the queen, so they could only leave Fengqi Palace.
After they left, the queen rubbed her eyebrows and said in a low voice to Mama He, "This flower is like jade, it is really a good means, this palace has only seen such a one for so many years." His Majesty seemed to be really fascinated by her. ”
Mama He also lowered her voice, "What you asked the slave to check, the slave and the maid found out some eyebrows, it is said that this flower is like jade, because he was born in the rivers and lakes, and the kung fu he practiced is the feminine Yin Gong, that is, the charm Gong, has always been, the women of the rivers and lakes are not allowed to enter the harem, but His Majesty has to break this rule now, His Majesty did not give him a title, as a plaything, even if the courtiers, it is not easy to impeach and advise Your Majesty." ”
The queen nodded, "No wonder you can stay in Hanxiang Palace overnight for a month." ”
Mama He whispered, "Those who have a high number of skills are very powerful and domineering. Your Majesty has never cultivated herself and abstinence over the years, and now he is not young at the age of the year, and when he meets such a person, I am afraid that it will hinder His Majesty's dragon body for a long time. ”
The emperor's heart was cold.
Hollowing out the body, isn't it just an obstacle? It's no wonder! Since ancient times, isn't it an emperor who has not been hollowed out by wine?
The queen took a deep breath, "What about Yan'er?" What are you busy with these days? There is no figure to be seen. ”
Mama He straightened up, "Since the Zhang Zaifu case, His Majesty has handed over many things to His Highness the Seventh, and now His Highness the Sixth has been reduced to a commoner, and the affairs in the hands of His Highness Six have also been handed over to His Highness Seven." His Royal Highness the Seventh has been very busy all day. But this is also a good thing, the more Your Majesty attaches importance to the Seventh Highness, the greater the power that the Seventh Highness can hold in his hands. ”
The queen nodded, "That's true. ”
Although her son's throne has not yet been established, it is a good sign now.
But......
The queen thought for a while, "This palace heard that Hua Ruyu was sent to the capital by Xiao An'er to the leader of the Qianshui Alliance, and she is afraid that she has a grudge against Xiao An'er now." This revenge is no different whether it is reported to Xiao An'er, or to the palace and Yan'er. You send a message to Yan'er and tell him to be more careful lately. ”
Mama He nodded.
The day before the Chinese Valentine's Day, the sky is not beautiful, it rains heavily, especially the heavy rain comes, the downpour is like the sea dragon king opened the Tianhe gate, dumped to the earth, all of a sudden inside and outside the capital, it rained a dark day.
Gu Qingyan stood in front of the window, looking at the heavy rain pouring outside the window, his brows furrowed tightly, calculating that An Huajin should not be far from the capital now, at most two or three hundred miles. But how do you walk with such a heavy rain? If it was herself, but she still had a Chu Siyan with her, if it was raining so heavily outside Beijing, she was afraid that she would not be able to hurry.
Sure enough, as Gu Qingyan guessed, the capital is five hundred miles away, and the heavy rain is coming urgently, and it is raining heavily, An Huajin took Chu Siyan and was two hundred miles away from the capital, and he originally planned to go to the capital before noon tomorrow and accompany Gu Qingyan for the Qixi Festival at night, but now that it is raining so heavily, he naturally can't hurry.
Especially, she didn't prepare earlier, the sky was cloudy when she said it was cloudy, and when she said it was raining, it would rain heavily, and she and Chu Siyan were walking in a place where there was no store in front of the village and no store in the back. Although both of them were wearing ponchos, they were suddenly poured into soup chickens before they could put them on.
Chu Siyan screamed, in the wilderness, she was about to cry, "Xiao An'er, what should we do?" ”
An Huajin immediately grabbed the reins of the horse and took out the poncho, "Quickly take out the poncho, let's put it on and find a place to shelter from the rain." ”
Now there is no other way, if you go in front, you have to walk thirty miles to get to the next town, and you have to turn back in the back, and you have to go dozens of miles. Now it's raining so heavily, it's all mountain roads, and it's impossible to walk. I can only look at finding a cave and hiding first.
Chu Siyan could only hurriedly take out the poncho to cover herself, and the bean-sized rain drops crackled and fell, and her head hurt so much that she could barely sit on horseback.
An Huajin stretched out his hand and dragged Chu Siyan to his horse, holding her with one hand and the reins of the horse with the other.
With the memory of two trips, An Huajin drove his horse to the mountain forest on the left.
As soon as they walked a short distance, a group of people rushed out of the mountain forest on the left, dressed in black and masked, each holding a big knife in their hands, and their eyes still looked bright in the rain.
An Huajin's eyes narrowed, his hand holding the reins was tightly clenched, and he leaned forward, sticking to Chu Siyan's poncho-wrapped ear, and said in a low voice, "Someone is coming to rob the road, you stay in my arms obediently for a while, no matter what you hear, don't shout and make a fuss, otherwise, there are a lot of people who come today, it seems that they are running to let me die, and I can't protect you." ”
Chu Siyan's whole body suddenly stiffened, "Robber...... Bandit? ”
"More powerful than robbers, I'm afraid it's a killer. And there are hundreds. An Huajin tied Chu Siyan around his waist with the reins of his horse, and replied to her with the kung fu of his two-handed sword.
Chu Siyan took advantage of the fact that An Huajin tied her up, and didn't know where she got the courage, lifted the poncho and glanced out, and when she saw the man in black rushing over, she turned around in horror and threw herself into An Huajin's arms, "I, I'm obedient, Xiao An'er, you can protect me well." ”
An Huajin let out an "um", and his voice was flat.
The last time she came to Beijing, she was indeed alone, but this time she came to Beijing, she was not.
In addition to the ten secret guards that Chu Chen gave to Chu Siyan, when she left the Nanyang Palace, she pondered and pondered, feeling that this way, I was afraid that it would be unstable, but she brought a large number of secret guards.
So, even at this time, she didn't panic.
After she took out her two-handed sword, she used the tip of the sword to pick it up, and a red lotus exploded in midair.
A large number of black-clothed people had come to the front at this time, surrounded An Huajin's horse, and the guards of Prince Shan's Mansion appeared in horror, and ten secret guards plus An Huajin fought with these killers in the heavy rain for a while.
Chu Siyan was very well-behaved, moving and moving, without saying a word, hugging An Huajin's waist tightly.
After a cup of tea, a large number of secret guards from the Nanyang Palace's mansion followed from behind, surrounding this large number of killers.
An Huajin saw the opportunity, untied the reins of the horse that tied Chu Siyan, took her and flew up, instantly broke through the layers of obstacles, and used his two-handed sword to frame the leader's neck, with cold murderous intent in his eyes, "Say, who instructed you to rob and kill me halfway?" ”
