Chapter 448: A false alarm
There are inexplicable people in the front, and there are chasing soldiers in the back, Lin Huiru only feels that the sky is going to kill her.
She didn't expect to meet so many people earlier?!
However, I don't know why, the person behind him suddenly stopped, and the two sides were in a state of tension, until Yufeng, who was dressed in a black suit, came out of the red-clothed army, and Lin Huiru simply wanted to thank God.
But Bai Qianyi's brows didn't wrinkle slightly.
"Take it, don't keep a single one." Yufeng gave an order, and the pursuers didn't have time to escape, and they were kidnapped and taken away by Wuhua in a blink of an eye.
By this time, the sky had already darkened. Yu Feng stepped forward and saluted Lin Huiru and Princess An Ning, "Let the lady and princess be frightened." ”
"It's okay, it's good if someone catches it." Lin Huiru waved his hand, so it seems that Tang Junyi is still trustworthy.
She handed over Princess An Ning to Yu Feng to take away, and she borrowed two horses to rush back with Bai Qianyi. On the way, Bai Qianyi's brows have never been flattened.
"What's wrong? I don't think you've looked right since just now, what's the problem?" Lin Huiru tightened the cloak on his body, this was the coldest time of the day.
Bai Qianyi slowed down, "Those red horsemen, are they under King Xiang?"
"I don't know, I've never seen it, but after negotiating before, he will definitely send troops to ensure the safety of me and Princess An Ning. What's wrong?" Lin Huiru couldn't help but be even more puzzled, it seemed that there seemed to be some connection between Bai Qianyi and Hongqi.
"It's fine, but it looks like you don't know. The red horse is the elite trained by the first emperor, and it is said that it should have been escorted by the emperor's side, but now it is in the hands of King Xiang... I'm afraid..."Bai Qianyi frowned, on the surface, he was still vying for the position of the prince in full swing, could it be that he had quietly instructed him behind his back?
Lin Huiru was stunned for a moment, and then frowned, "However, if Your Majesty has this intention, why didn't you set up a prince, do you still want to see King Xiang's ability?"
"It's possible, but from this point of view, even if the party struggle is inconclusive, the next prince is already very obvious." In the final analysis, it's Tang Junyi.
The wind was blowing near dawn, and the two kept silent on the road, for fear of drinking the cool breeze. As soon as he came down the mountain, Lin Huiru saw a team of people in front of him who seemed to have been waiting for a long time.
She squinted her eyes and looked over, but found that the person headed by that team of centaurs turned out to be Xu Ziqiao?!
Although he had mixed feelings in his heart, Lin Huiru still involuntarily sped up, and he had already put his mentality in the realm of admitting his mistakes. She knew that in front of so many people, Xu Ziqiao would not say anything.
Xu Ziqiao's face didn't show joy or anger, but he put a cloak on Lin Huiru before she got into the carriage, but he didn't come up.
Lin Huiru didn't dare to ask, until he returned home and saw Xu Ziqiao's slightly red nose and ears, his nose was also sour, and an indescribable sadness rippled in his heart, and finally it was difficult to control himself.
"What are you crying about?" Xu Ziqiao was a little helpless.
"I don't know, I just want to cry...... Lin Huiru wiped her tears and sniffed, "I really didn't mean to hide it from you, but the situation was critical at the time, if I told you, you wouldn't let me go." ”
Lin Huiru's aggrieved appearance happened to be seen by Baizhu, Baizhu was stunned for a moment, and stood on Lin Huiru's side before he knew what was happening, "My lord, Mrs. should be frightened, and I know that I was wrong, so don't scold Mrs. anymore, it's still cold outside, let's go into the house." ”
Xu Ziqiao couldn't laugh or cry, he didn't say anything.
The first thing he did when he entered the house, Lin Huiru quickly changed into his clothes, and sat obediently on the side and bowed his head to admit his mistake.
"So you didn't tell me, but told King Xiang?" Xu Ziqiao blew the warm-up soup, raised his eyebrows and asked softly.
"Thinking about King Xiang is for profit... I had to ask him for help, and he got a favor anyway. Lin Huiru muttered, a little surprised that Xu Ziqiao didn't get angry, "But my trip is not without gain." ”
Xu Ziqiao took a sip of the soup, "Yes, what's the catch?"
"Guess who's doing this whole thing?" Lin Huiru held the soup bowl to warm his hands, pretending to ask mysteriously.
"Tang Jingyi." Xu Ziqiao didn't hide it, and opened his mouth bluntly.
Lin Huiru was stunned, "How do you know?"
"It's not a difficult task, but it was later that this incident helped me confirm that it was indeed him." Xu Ziqiao looked calm and composed, he finished drinking the soup in the bowl, and his eyes were close to Lin Huiru's eyes, "Promise me, next time you have something to discuss with me, don't go to those irrelevant people." ”
Being looked at like this, Lin Huiru actually felt a little affectionate from his eyes, and there was both worry and anger, and his cheeks turned red involuntarily, "I know, if there is anything in the future, I will tell you first." ”
"Well, and I thought about it, if it's just because of this position that you are pushed to the forefront, this official, don't do it." Xu Ziqiao sighed softly, what is this kind of day of gathering less and being more worried? He was originally righteous, but since he had Lin Huiru, he just wanted to put other things aside.
Lin Huiru shook his head, "Your ambition is here, it's a big deal that I won't do dangerous things in the future, and after these two times, no one should dare to put their hands into the Prime Minister's Mansion." ”
"Why don't you dare, they are all people who dare to think about their own positions, this kind of person can't do anything." Xu Ziqiao narrowed his eyes, and his tone was a little sarcastic.
"Well, I promise there won't be a next time. After all, you are now the emperor's right-hand man, and it is impossible for Your Majesty to let you go, and the new official has taken office three times, and your prestige has been established, it is hard to guarantee that no one has forgotten hatred and jealousy, and it will be troublesome at that time. Lin Huiru put down the bowl and leaned over to hug Xu Ziqiao in his arms.
I didn't sleep this night, Lin Huiru's upper and lower eyelids couldn't help fighting, and in the familiar embrace, she quickly fell asleep, and when she woke up, it was already dark outside.
She yawned and went out, suddenly noticing that there were many more fresh faces in the yard.
At this time, Xu Ziqiao walked over without knowing what to do, and pulled Lin Huiru into the room, "It's cold outside, and I have something to tell someone to do." ”
Lin Huiru glanced outside suspiciously, "What do those people do?"
"There have been too many things happening in the Prime Minister's Mansion recently, and Your Majesty is worried about the safety of the Prime Minister's Mansion, so he specially ordered the guards to come to protect our safety." Xu Ziqiao closed the door.
I'm afraid that it may not be purely to protect, there should be some meaning of surveillance, but it is not so obvious. The harmony between the monarch and the minister still has to be maintained.
