Chapter 401: Hunted and killed

He is now preparing to return to Beijing, so that Jin Yantang is alert to the changes in the city.

Jin Yantang's eyes narrowed slightly, the eldest princess had already begun to transfer the foreign army to the capital, how could she ...... What do you want to do?

At present, the war in northern Xinjiang is urgent, all the troops are supported in northern Xinjiang, and the troops left in the capital are not enough to confront the eldest princess, and the two are not conducive to the development of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and will also make the people fall into a miserable life.

He has always seen the situation very clearly, and he also pursues the principle of "killing with one blow".

At this time, Fupu walked in from the outside and saluted respectfully: "Your Majesty, Concubine Chen has left the palace safely." ”

Jin Yantang's eyes were slightly stunned, and he put down the fold and said, "Can you send the Praetorian Guards to protect her?" ”

Fupu said respectfully: "Your Majesty, rest assured, the guards sent by the servants to Concubine Chen's side are all pretended to be masters in the Praetorian Guard. ”

Hearing this, Fupu's eyebrows relaxed slightly, and then nodded: "That's fine, you can step back first, don't let anyone in." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Forp saluted him again and stepped back.

……

The weather in the palace has been good and bad in the past few days, and after Yun Qing left the imperial study, he walked to the guest rooms in the palace.

As he passed by the Imperial Garden, he suddenly heard the sound of broken thoughts.

"You little thing can make me miserable, fortunately I'm clever, otherwise it will be over now, in order not to let Concubine Jia find out, you better hurry up and put me in the ground!"

This is a palace maid talking, following the voice, on the cobblestone path, Yun Qing subconsciously looked into the bushes on the left.

But behind the bushes, a yellow-clothed palace maid squatted on the ground, holding a flower hoe in her hand, plowing the ground, and then buried something in it.

Yun Qing's eyes flashed slightly, and then he hid behind a big tree. After a short time, the palace maid hurriedly left here after burying her things, and after she left, Yun Qing came out from behind the big tree.

He came to the place where the maid buried things, squatted down, broke a branch, and shook the ground that she had trampled very tightly.

Half a cup of tea passed, and he dug up what the palace maid had hidden.

Yun Qing clapped his hands, and when the soil on his hands shook off, he looked at the mottled brand in his hand.

It looked like a token, which was burned by the fire and turned red, but the bottom was silver.

This token is engraved with the word "Ankang", I don't know what it means.

After a while, Yun Qing wrapped it in a handkerchief and put it in his arms, and then restored the scene and left here.

Since the palace maid mentioned "Concubine Jia" just now, it seems that this thing must be related to Concubine Jia, maybe there is some secret on this brand?

If Zhao Kehan was here, he would definitely be surprised, because this is the real token she asked Xiaohuan to restore!

At night, outside the palace, on the official road.

A carriage was followed by four guards, and the driver drove smoothly, for fear that something would go wrong on the road.

In the carriage, Shang Kelan opened the curtain and glanced at the sky outside, and said to everyone: "It's getting late, let's go to the front to see if there is an inn, let's rest first!" ”

There is still some distance from the nunnery in Qingyun County, and it is most important to save energy first.

The coachman and the guards respectfully said, "Yes, ma'am! ”

For some reason, the wind outside blew into her neck, causing her to feel an uneasy chill all over her body.

So, she quickly lowered the curtain and sat back in the carriage.

At this time, the official road is on another place.

A girl in pink panted and leaned on the trunk of a tree to rest, and said to the woman in pink in front of her, "Gardenia, can you rest first?" I can't walk anymore! "Lazy people listen to books

In front, Gardenia turned around to help her, frowned and said: "No, we only came out of the Nangong Gate yesterday, and we just walked out of the back mountain, if we don't move quickly, if we are found to escape, the people in the palace will not let us go!" ”

Zhiqiu's face improved, and then he raised his head to look at her and said, "But we have walked ten miles today, and I really can't walk......

Gardenia sighed and said, "Okay, let's go and rest in the woods next to us." ”

It was getting dark, and she had just seen a hut in the woods, which seemed uninhabited, just in time for them to rest.

Zhiqiu breathed a sigh of relief, took Gardenia's hand and walked over with her.

The grass shed was not far from the official road, and the gardenia did not dare to light a torch for fear of attracting attention.

Just as she sat down in the grass hut, she saw a group of black-clothed people on the official road quickly sweeping over the official road.

There were so many of them, it seemed that there were seven or eight of them, and they disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Gardenia was stunned for a moment, rubbed her eyes, and when she looked at it again, there was nothing on the official road.

For a while, Gardenia was a little puzzled in her heart: Strange, am I wrong?

Then, she shook her head, turned and walked into the hut.

……

In the carriage, Shang Kelan was closing her eyes to recuperate, and suddenly, the carriage jolted violently, and Shang Kelan didn't hold it steady, and almost rolled out of the carriage!

Fortunately, she was just knocked on the head, and it was no big deal.

Her fair forehead suddenly turned red, and after stabilizing her body, Shang Kelan lifted the curtain and asked the driver outside, "What happened?" ”

But the coachman turned his back to her, did not move, and did not answer Shang Kelan's words.

"Rustle!"

The leaves were blown by the wind, and Shang Kelan had a bad premonition in her heart.

Her throat twitched slightly, and she tentatively touched the coachman's back: "Are you okay?" ”

"Boom!" Heavy, the coachman fell off his horse, and saw his eyes wide open and a dart stuck in his chest! This dart seems to be sealed with blood, and there is a faint blue poisonous light flashing on it!

"Whew!"

"Madame, be careful!"

At this moment, the guard in front hurried over, and with a sword, he swung away the dart that shot from the back of Shang Kelan's head!

"Ding!" The dart was struck crooked by him and landed the trunk of a nearby tree.

Shang Kelan's expression froze, and she looked at him and said, "What about the other guards?" ”

The guard hurriedly replied: "The situation was not right just now, my subordinates sent them out to check the situation, but I didn't expect the other party to come and make a move to divert the tiger from the mountain!" ”

Shang Kelan's eyes sank, it seemed that someone still wanted to put her to death!

The two were talking, when suddenly, five men in black came out of the woods and completely surrounded the carriage.

The guards pushed Shang Kelan into the carriage and instructed: "Niangniang, don't come out yet, and send you out when your subordinates find an opportunity!" ”

Then, he looked at the assassins and said with a serious expression, "Who are you?" Why are you chasing and killing our lady? ”

These men in black looked at him with cold eyes, didn't say a word, and instantly pulled out the dagger in their sleeves and rushed towards him!

It seems that they are coming straight to Shang Kelan, and these people are well-trained and ruthless, and they are definitely not easy to deal with!

The guard gritted his teeth, suddenly got on the horse and slapped the horse with his scabbard, and in an instant, the horse screamed miserably and rushed out of the official road like a madman!
