Chapter 28 Return
Qingluan saw that Yuzhu had returned, so he was impatient to talk to Xiao Boyan, and said to him quite understandingly: "You have a guest, go quickly, don't let people wait for a long time." ”
Xiao Boyan hesitated, and finally strode away.
Seeing Xiao Boyan walking away, Qingluan immediately pulled Yuzhu aside and asked quietly, "What did the Shizi Mansion say?" ”
Yuzhu said: "His servant said that the prince received a letter from home this morning, and after the prince read it, he wrote an excerpt and hurried to the palace. ”
Letter? Qingluan's heart was even more uneasy, and he asked again: "What does the family letter say?" ”
Yuzhu: "The servant said that the king of Qi was seriously ill, and said that he wanted the prince to go home to serve the sick." ”
Qingluan opened his mouth slightly, and his brain buzzed for a while.
King Qi is seriously ill? In his previous life, King Qi would only get seriously ill next year, how could such a thing happen now?
No, what a serious illness, it is clear that someone is secretly doing it.
So, is Brother Li Wen going to repeat the mistakes of his previous life?
No, no, no! You must not let him leave the capital, and you must not let him die under your nose.
Li Wen's gentle, elegant, light and smiling appearance is vivid, how can she bear to watch him die?
"Let's go to the palace now!" Qingluan commanded.
"County Lord, you didn't hand the fold into the palace to see you, you can't enter the palace." Yuzhu said worriedly.
"Who said I was going to enter the palace, I will go to the palace gate and wait for Brother Wen Shi."
This disaster must be prevented, she can't protect King Qi, and she must not let Li Wen die in front of her.
Qingluan was very anxious, not only worried about the imminent danger to Li Wen's life, but also the safety of his parents, the emperor's uncle, and even the entire Li dynasty.
After saying goodbye to the county lord of Chaoyang and Sun Yu, Qingluan sat in the carriage, and only felt confused for a while.
Obviously, he already knows all the conspiracy, but he can't change anything in the slightest.
The whole incident seemed to have a lifeline hanging over his head, watching it little by little into the necks of his family members and friends, and then slowly tightening.
This kind of despair is something that only she can experience.
Qingluan's fingers clenched, and the whole person was tense and trembling.
Do we want to repeat the mistakes of our previous lives? So what's the point of her living again? Or did she do something rebellious in her previous life, and God wanted to torture her over and over again?
Soon, the palace arrived, and their carriage could only stop and wait quietly outside the forbidden area of the imperial city.
An hour later, a figure appeared at the side door of Chengtianmen, and Qingluan finally saw Li Wenmai walking hurriedly across the Wulong Bridge and hurrying over.
"Brother Wen Shi!" Qingluan waved to him from the carriage.
"Jianing?" Li Wen walked over, looked at her with warm eyes, and asked softly, "What are you doing here?" ”
"Brother Wen, you get in the car and talk."
Li Wen hesitated, but still sat in Jianing's carriage.
"Brother Wen, are you going back to Qidi?" Qingluan looked at him cautiously and asked.
Li Wen nodded and said gloomily: "My father is seriously ill and wrote to me to go back." ”
He raised his head again and looked at Qingluan, with a smile on his handsome face, "It's been ten years, I've been in the capital for ten years, and I can finally go back this time." ”
Qingluan's heart was stagnant, as if he was being pulled by someone, "Brother Wen, don't go back, okay?" ”
She knew that Li Wen had been alone in the capital since she was twelve years old, and there was no one close to her, and now she was finally able to go back, how could she not be happy.
However, it is a point of no return.
Li Wen's eyes lit up, and he looked at Qingluan carefully, and there seemed to be a glittering brilliance in his eyes, "Jianing, why don't you want me to go back?" ”
Qingluan said with a solemn expression: "Because, your father may have been killed by traitors, they want to lure you back, and then harm you halfway." ”
Li Wen slowly put away his smile and frowned, "Jianing, how do you know?" ”
"Because, because ......"
Qingluan didn't know how to answer, and he couldn't tell Li Wen that he had experienced a lifetime and knew that these were all conspiracies.
"I ...... I had a dream in which you would encounter an assassin on your way back. Although such words are unlucky for a person who is about to travel far away, Qingluan has to say it.
Li Wen was stunned for a moment, seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and smiled: "Jianing, don't worry, it's just a dream." ”
Qingluan was anxious, grabbed his sleeve and shook it, "Brother Wen, my dream is very accurate, you must believe my words, don't go back." ”
Li Wen stretched out his slender fingers, stroked Qingluan's hanging forehead, and said softly: "Jianing, thank you for reminding me of this, but I must return to Qidi." ”
Today, he has handed over to the emperor the letter of his father's serious illness, and His Majesty has allowed him to leave Beijing and return to Qi. Even if there is really any conspiracy here, he must return to Qi as soon as possible.
Seeing that Li Wen couldn't be persuaded no matter what, Qingluan was full of grievances and anxiety and had nowhere to appeal, so she couldn't help but reddened her eyes and said angrily: "Why don't you listen to me? Why do you have to die? ”
Li Wen closed his eyes, reached out and gently patted her back to soothe, "Jianing, I'll be careful......"
"Brother Wen, don't go......"
Qingluan choked up, only feeling that he was so useless, he couldn't change anything, he knew what was about to happen, but he was powerless to save and stop it.
At first, it was Brother Wen's family, then there would be other vassal kings, and then his parents and uncles......
Seeing Jianing's tears, Li Wen's heart softened, gently took Jianing into his arms, and said softly: "Jianing, I haven't been back for ten years, no matter what, I have to go back to Qidi first." ”
Qingluan was angry and anxious, knowing that he would definitely not be able to stop him, so he couldn't help but pull his shirt and sob.
Is the doom of the previous life about to begin now, even if you can kill Xiao Boyan now, I am afraid that you will not be able to stop those hidden conspiracies.
She wasn't even sure if the mastermind behind the murder of the vassal king was Xiao Boyan or someone else.
Those hidden black hands plotted to overthrow the dynasty surnamed Li, and they must have been planning for a long time, that is, without Xiao Boyan, there will be Zhao Boyan and Qian Boyan rising.
Ambition is something that can't be extinguished.
She doesn't have the ability to turn the tide and save the court, but she has to protect her relatives and friends no matter what.
Although she didn't have that deep affection with Li Wen, she couldn't bear it no matter how she saw this gentle and familiar person walking towards death step by step.
Obviously he didn't have to die, why didn't he listen to her?
……
Seeing that Li Wen couldn't be convinced, Qingluan went to see her mother when she returned to the princess's mansion.
The eldest princess looked quite depressed recently, stroked her daughter's arm and asked, "What's the matter with Aman?" ”
"Mother, a letter came from the Qi Palace, saying that the King of Qi is seriously ill and let Wen Shizi return to Qidi."
The eldest princess sighed, without much surprise, and slowly drank the tea and said: "Li Wen has been in Beijing for many years, he is the prince, if anything happens to the king of Qi, he will definitely return to Qi to inherit the prince." ”
Qingluan frowned and said, "Mother, that's not what I said; The king of Qi is very sick this time, Brother Wen Shi's return journey will definitely not be peaceful, we might as well send some guards from the mansion to send him back, do you think it's good? ”
The eldest princess glanced at her daughter: "Our house must not be related to the royal family of the foreign domain, it is absolutely inappropriate to send guards, Aman, your father is in charge of the frontier army, and his identity is special, if one is not careful, he will be used by someone with a heart." ”
Qingluan was stunned.
Yes, the law clearly decrees that the court officials should not have too close personal relations with foreign vassals, otherwise they can be convicted of a great crime.
She must not put her parents in danger.
What if the person on the throne was her own uncle? The royal family affection is as thin as paper, and if you are not careful, you will never recover.
