Chapter 495: Killing
Yan Gu, who was ordered to go to Jingjicang to see the new grain, returned to Beijing and brought back a small cloth bag of grain and sent it to the imperial front.
The emperor copied a handful of grains from the cloth bag, looked at them carefully, and smiled with satisfaction after reading them: "Well, it's very full." ”
Yan Gu stood aside and said with honor: "This year's grain is not only full, but the harvest is also higher than last year's. ”
"It's all the father's good governance."
The emperor was even more satisfied, put the grains back in the cloth bag, handed them to Gao Desheng and said, "Send them to the imperial dining room, and use this for dinner." ”
Gao Desheng took it with a smile and asked Xiaofuzi to do it.
The emperor looked at Yan Gu again and smiled slightly: "You have worked hard, and you have done a good job." ”
"Father, don't say that." Yan Gu straightened his expression, waved his hands and said solemnly: "Being able to share the worries and solve problems for my father and emperor is one thing that my sons are looking forward to and are committed to doing well. ”
The emperor looked at him twice, nodded and said, "Go back and rest for two days." ”
Yan Gu thanked him and retired.
When he arrived at the gate of the palace, Lei Jian was already waiting in the carriage, and when he saw Yan Gu coming out, he hurriedly waved his hands to salute, and then knelt on the ground.
Yan Gu stepped on Lei Jian's back and got into the carriage.
Lei Jian shook off the dust on the hem of his clothes, jumped out of the car, and drove away.
As the curtain of the car behind him fell, the gentleness of Yan Gu's face was gone.
His eyes were cloudy, and he said in a cold tone: "The marriage has been decided?" ”
Lei Jian turned his head sideways, leaned close to the car curtain and said, "It's just intentional, it's not decided yet." ”
"But if nothing else, seven or eight times out of ten."
Yan Gu snorted lightly and sneered: "I underestimated him!" ”
Whether it's ability or ambition!
However, it has always been him who stepped on other people's shoulders, and now that he is calculated, he has become the one who is stepped on!
It doesn't feel very good.
He wanted to kill.
On Yan Qi's side, the banquet didn't end until Hai Shi, and everyone left slightly drunk.
Yan Qi instructed Baixiang: "You go find a few proper ones, and send them back to the house." ”
When these sons and brothers go out, they have to be followed by at least three or five small guys, and only Song Si is with Qin Yunrong.
Baixiang understood what Yan Qi meant, bowed his head, and turned around to order.
When the wind rose, Yan Qi wrapped himself in a cloak and stood under the base of the wall for a stroll.
He thought, but after drinking, if she smells it, he must be angry.
Thinking about it, Yan Qi felt that he couldn't do something pretentious.
Pouted, regretfully went inside.
Baixiang came back, waited for Yan Qi to wash, and brought medicine to him.
Yan Qi, as usual, raised his head and drank the medicinal juice, and when the medicinal juice entered his mouth, his bitter facial features were twisted together, and he swallowed it forcibly, and Yu Wang, who was about to vomit, said: "Why did you suddenly change the prescription?" ”
"After checking the pulse this morning, I said that I was going to change the prescription, did you forget?" Baixiang held the box and said, "Son, eat a plum." ”
Yan Qi pinched two and ate them in his mouth, the bitter medicinal juice mixed with sweet and sour plums, the taste was very strange.
He couldn't stand it anymore and threw up.
Baixiang hurriedly put down the box, turned around and poured a cup of tea, and said hurriedly: "Rinse your mouth quickly." ”
Yan Qi rinsed his mouth, twisted his eyebrows and breathed a long sigh of relief.
Baixiang frowned and said, "Is it better?" ”
Yan Qi nodded.
Baixiang frowned and said, "If it's better, then let's drink another bowl." He pointed to the spittoon: "You spit it out." ”
"Can you not drink it?" Yan Qi's stomach churned, his face was white, and he said without love: "I shouldn't have vomited just now." ”
Baixiang looked at him for a moment and said, "That subordinate boils half a bowl."
Yan Qi: ""
Song Si sent away the little maid in Yanqi's mansion and closed the courtyard door.
He sat flutteringly in the circle chair outside, looking at the wick, thinking about the days after that, and grinning at the corners of his mouth.
Before he could laugh, a cold arrow suddenly pierced through the thick window paper and came straight at the door in front of him.
The strength of the wine suddenly dissipated, and Song Si subconsciously kicked his feet, and even fell to the ground with a stool.
Arrows swept over his head, bringing out blood.
He rolled on the spot, turned over the curtain on the side, and listened vigilantly to the movement outside the room.
I don't know if he really drank too much, and he couldn't hear people's movements.
It was extremely quiet outside, and his heart was beating wildly.
A blood path was drawn on the top of his head, and blood drippeds down his forehead on the tip of his nose, Song Si raised his hand to wipe it, and touched the dagger out of his arms with bated breath.
After breathing two breaths of relief, he just stood up to see the situation, but another arrow came at him.
He hurriedly blocked it with his dagger, and at the same time crouched down again.
Picking up the scabbard at his feet, he aimed at the position of the candle and threw it.
The lampstand smashed to the ground, and the room went dark.
Song Si bent his waist, went to the window, and listened.
This time he finally heard extremely shallow footsteps, more than one.
This kind of footsteps told Song Si that the people outside the house were not ordinary thieves.
Someone is going to kill him!
Thinking about what happened in the past two days, it is not difficult to guess who will do it, Song Si gritted his teeth.
The face looked like a gentle one, but I didn't expect it to be so treacherous!
He swallowed his saliva with difficulty, and was thinking about how to deal with it, but the window suddenly lit up.
Song Si was stunned for a while, and suddenly realized something, and his heart was terrified.
Leaning against the window, he peered through the hole in the window, and saw clearly three or five men in night clothes, all of them holding bows and arrows.
At this moment, the arrows were already on the strings, and the arrows were tied with oilcloth fireballs, burning fiercely in the wind
The next day was the day when Jiang Lingran made an appointment with Yan Liangyi and Bai Rong to visit Qin Ruodan.
Jiang Lingran left the mansion early, all the way to the Guogong Mansion, and met Bai Rong getting out of the carriage.
The two smiled and saluted, and entered the house hand in hand.
Bai Rong circled Jiang Lingran's next door and said in a low voice, "Has Sister Jiang heard about it?" The Qin family is going to marry Miss Qin. ”
Jiang Lingran was surprised: "Really? Which one to set for? ”
Bai Rong said: "It was the guard who saved Miss Qin in the palace that day, it seems that his name is Song Si." ”
Jiang Lingran was stunned, then frowned, and repeated in disbelief: "Song Si? ”
Bai Rong also heard what the crown princess said, but she didn't remember it really, so she turned her head and asked the maid Hongfeng: "Is it called Song Si?" ”
Red Maple nodded, "That's the name, that's right." ”
Jiang Lingran's brows furrowed even deeper, how could it be him?
This look was seen by Bai Rong, and she wondered, "Why does Sister Jiang have such a look?" Do you know this guy named Song Si? ”
Jiang Lingran hurriedly shook his head and chuckled, "How can I know each other?" ”
However, she had heard the name.
After Yan Gu succeeded to the throne in the previous life, Yang Pingfu, the commander of the patrol battalion who was the prince's confidant, was beheaded by Yan Gu by mistake, and then the person who took over the patrol battalion was Song Si.
In this way, Song Si is Yan Gu's person?
Jiang Lingran felt even more that Qin Ruodan's fall into the lake was not a coincidence!
even sweated for the prince and the Qin family.
When I arrived at Qin Ruodan's room, Yan Liangyi was already there.
She sat on Qin Ruodan's couch, looking guilty and distressed.
Qin Ruodan was pale and pale, leaning on the pillow and coughing low.
Although she fell into the lake and was rescued, she froze hard, causing a wind chill to invade her body.
