Chapter 443: Her Thoughts
A carriage left Zhong Shoushan and drove quickly in the direction of Kyoto, followed closely by several plainclothes guards, looking back from time to time, as if they were afraid that someone would catch up.
"Your Highness, it seems that the King of You has given up. ”
A guard drove his horse to the window of the carriage, but Mu Yuan's face did not have much lightheartedness.
When they rushed to the Yu Mansion to rescue Yu Yanting, they found that Mu Longyuan's men had disappeared without a trace.
Mu Yuan only felt that this was too different from Mu Longyuan's style, he restrained his thoughts and looked at Xia Qianwei who was sitting opposite, "Lord Yongle, you have to be careful after returning to Beijing this time. ”
I'm afraid that King Youwang is planning to settle accounts after the autumn, maybe he has set up an ambush just waiting for them to relax their vigilance!
Even if he is a warm and easy-going person like Mu Yuan, it is difficult to let go of his guard in the face of Mu Longyuan.
"Brother Yanting is awake!"
At this time, the two villains in the car exclaimed, only to see that Yu Yanting, who had been sleeping all the way, finally woke up leisurely, he opened his eyes in confusion and looked at Yu Qing Yuyue who was around him, and suddenly sat up and said in fright, "Miss Young Master, how can you ......?"
"Brother Yanting, it was the county lord of Yongle who rescued us! But, but you ......"
Tears sparked Yue'er's little face, she choked up and looked at Yu Yanting's bloodstained clothes, and when Xia Qianwei was holding his wounds, she was also speechless for a while by those bloody and pitted wounds.
Rescued?
The bumpy carriage made Yu Yanting realize that he had finally escaped from the purgatory, and he bit his dry lip and wanted to get up and kneel down for Xia Qianwei, but she reached out to stop him.
"Yu Gongzi is injured, so don't be polite. ”
However, Yu Yanting did not have the joy of the rest of his life after the catastrophe, and when he recalled what he had suffered, he couldn't stop trembling.
It turned out that he was brought into the house that day, and Second Master Yu ordered someone to forcibly pour him an unknown decoction in the name of curing the disease, and after they successfully exited the house and locked it, Yu Yanting immediately picked his throat and spit out most of it.
He knew that Second Master Yu would not kill people easily, so he hid in the house with a nervous mood and listened to the occasional conversation outside the door, only to know that it was a crazy medicine that made people delirious!
Therefore, Yu Yanting will make a plan, pretending that he is controlled by the power of medicine, but Second Master Yu is a careful person, where can he easily believe it?
Xia Qianwei didn't have to think about it to know that Yu Yanting had to pretend to be crazy and stupid on the one hand, and on the other hand, he had to fight against the madness medicine that was not exhausted in his body.
"So you self-harmed with scissors just to stay awake?"
"Yes...... After every severe pain, I can remember who I am and what I want to do. ”
Yu Yanting smiled bitterly, fortunately, Second Master Yu was not suspicious, no matter how much blood was shed, no matter how much injury he was, it was worth it.
The two little guys in the car were terrified when they heard this, and Yu Qing firmly wiped away the tears on his face, "Brother Yanting, rest assured, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will definitely uphold justice for us!"
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?
Yu Yanting found that there was an elegant man with outstanding temperament sitting in the corner, seeing that he was slightly stunned for a long time, Mu Yuan frowned lightly and apologized apologetically, "Let this son suffer, it is all because my dynasty is ineffective, civil and military officials were born for the people, but now such officials have forced the people to rebel, as the prince of the dynasty, I am really ashamed." ”
Yu Yanting struggled to get up, but Mu Yuan took a step forward to support him, "The county lord finally stopped the bleeding for you, don't let her worry." ”
“...... Thank you, Your Highness, that Mu Gongzi ......"
"He's back in Beijing. Without waiting for Yu Yanting to ask something, Xia Qianwei interrupted him, and the weak man in front of him seemed to have a little pity.
"I wanted to thank Mu Gongzi in person, but if he hadn't ordered someone to secretly bring me food these days, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to last so long. ”
Although Second Master Yu did not order anyone to abuse Yu Yanting, it seemed that he had really gone crazy, so he stopped asking people to bring food, and planned to starve him to death! After all, it is not uncommon for a madman to even do such a thing as self-harm, and he does not know how to eat and drink.
Mu Gongzi: Could it be Mu Longyuan?
Mu Yuan couldn't help but take a deep look at Xia Qianwei on the other side, but the girl always had a faint expression, he seemed to hesitate a little in his heart, could it be his delusion?
I always felt that the moment she mentioned Mu Longyuan, there was an imperceptible change in her eyes, and there was an inexplicable intuition in her heart.
In the past, Xia Qianwei always showed a deep hatred for Youwang, but the calmer she was this time, the more Mu Yuan felt that something special had happened.
The journey back to Beijing was far away, it was night, and there was an even sound of breathing in the car.
A slight movement made Xia Qianwei, who had originally closed her eyes and recuperate, open her eyes suddenly, only to see that Mu Yuan was holding a robe in her hand and was about to put it on for her, but at this time she was still maintaining that gesture, looking at each other, and the man smiled slightly embarrassedly.
"I'm disturbing the county lord of Yongle. ”
He lowered his voice and glanced at the three people who were sleeping deeply next to him, who had seen the light of day again and could not take care of the bumps in the carriage, and slept very peacefully and deeply.
Only Xia Qianwei had a wisp of sorrow between her eyebrows from beginning to end.
"I should have found a place to rest at the inn, but I ......"
"The courtiers understand that business matters. ”
As Mu Yuan, she should hurry back to Kyoto to avoid extraneous branches, she didn't feel aggrieved and inconvenient at all, on the other hand, the prince of Chenguo was willing to share the hardships with the people, and it was not easy to let Yu Yanting and the two children rest in his car together.
"The county lord has something on his mind?"
Seeing that the girl in front of her fell into silence again, Mu Yuan asked with a light smile like a spring breeze, Xia Qianwei was slightly stunned, and saw her tired look clearly from his clear pupils.
The car was filled with a faint scent of orchid, and it was clear that not long ago, she was in a car with Youwang and shared a room.
Xia Qianwei was surprised to find that there was an indescribable feeling of emptiness in her heart, and the tense nerves along the way made her suddenly realize that Mu Longyuan's influence on her was too deep.
Maybe that man was too powerful, and he was always more thoughtful than others, and inadvertently, Xia Qianwei could always find the Qi guards hiding in the shadows to protect her.
With Mu Longyuan here, she can always get a little respite and stability, and she will not need to be on the lookout for the dangers that may be hidden around her as she is now.
Obviously, he is the one who needs her vigilance the most, why ...... now?
Xia Qianwei immediately made up her mind, no, this is not dependence!
Isn't there such an advantage in cooperating with the strong? It can not only be worry-free, but also easily achieve the goal, and each takes what he needs.
"The courtier was just thinking about Liu Xiang. ”
Mu Yuan didn't believe it, but he didn't dig deeper, but Xia Qianwei's concealment made him feel a little disappointed in his heart.
The considerate man handed over the shirt in his hand again and put it on her lap intimately, "There is something I want to discuss with the county lord......"
He paused, raised his eyes and looked at Xia Qianwei, there seemed to be an unconsciously outpouring of affection in his eyes, "I...... I don't want to marry the princess of Yunguo. ”
