Chapter 210 Assassination

Rong Xiu hugged Yan Xiaowei very tightly, as if he wanted to embed her small body into his chest, Yan Xiaowei was a little out of breath, but he didn't reach out to break free from his embrace.

She pressed her head to his chest and listened to the sound of his powerful heartbeat, so clearly, as if silently declaring his love for her.

Yan Xiaoyi's heart was warm, and the hands that were originally hanging at his sides wrapped around his thin waist: "Well, I'm yours, I'm not going anywhere." ”

When Rong Xiu heard this, he suddenly laughed deeply, and the laughter was pleasant to the ear.

The laughter fell on Yan Xiaoyi's ears, as if gently stirring up her calm heart lake, causing a series of tremors.

Her heart skipped a heavy beat, and her heart seemed to miss a beat, and such a constant feeling made her feel overwhelmed. However, Yan Xiaowei didn't want to avoid it this time, because this was her passionate heart for him, and she didn't want to lie to herself again.

Rong Xiu hugged her for a while, and then let go gently, with a happy smile in his eyebrows. He reached out and brushed the hair on her cheeks behind her ears, and smiled warmly: "It's not early, go back to your room and sleep, you have to get up early tomorrow!" ”

Yan Xiaowei suddenly remembered the reason why she came out this time: "Oh, by the way, I originally came out to find you." I want to ask, what should we do next? ”

Rong Xiu blinked: "Now that Allure has been caught, she keeps saying that she is the 'lord', and she insists that there is no one else behind her." It's useless for us to suspect anything else. And there's ...... involved."

Saying this, he suddenly stopped, stretched out three fingers and compared with her, and then continued: "So do you want to continue to investigate, and you have to go back to Beijing to report to the emperor and let him decide." ”

Yan Xiaowei knew that he was referring to the "Three Princes", and she was silent for a while.

Yes, whoever they suspect, now there is no evidence and it is just speculation. Once Baili Yechen is involved, this matter will be a big deal, and neither Rong Xiu nor Baili Yesu can make their own decisions. From this point of view, it is probably the safest way to return the matter to Bai Liying.

Due to the sudden addition of Baili Yechen and Yan Haiyue, the situation of the team suddenly became strange. Everyone has their own agendas, but on the surface, they keep this strange place all the way as if nothing has happened.

Yan Xiaoyun and Rong Xiu secretly observed Baili Yechen with cold eyes, but found that he did not show a trace of curiosity about those people in Allure, and he didn't even ask, let alone try to get closer.

This performance was a little different from what Yan Xiaowei expected, and she couldn't help but start to repeatedly refute her guesses, but she never came up with a reason.

What's even worse is that since the last time she had contact with Baili Yechen in the inn, she has always been able to meet his wanton and unrestrained eyes, which always makes her very worried.

What does this person want to do?

On this day, at noon, Rong Xiu instructed everyone to pull the carriage and horses and cook together in the forest.

Yan Xiaowei piled up the dead branches he had picked up and stuffed a few more clumps of hay before lighting the bonfire with flint. After a while, Rong Xiu and the others also walked out of the forest with a pheasant and hare in their hands.

After simply cleaning up, everyone began to roast pheasants and hares, and after a while, the crispy smell slowly came into the nose, and Yan Xiaowei couldn't help but swallow her saliva.

Although the atmosphere in the team was not very pleasant these days, it did not affect Yan Xiaoyi's appetite at all. At this moment, when she saw the roasted chicken that was charred on the outside and tender on the inside, her eyes seemed to be glowing with golden light, and this "gluttonous" little appearance was not only Rong Xiu, but even Baili Yesu and Baili Yechen smiled with interest when they saw it.

Finally roasted, Rong Xiu first dragged a chicken thigh and handed it to Yan Xiaoyi, and chuckled: "Originally, I was worried that you would not be used to eating these with fine skin and tender meat, and you will suffer when you marry me in the future." Now it seems that I am simply overthinking. ”

Yan Xiaowei reached out and took the chicken thigh, opened her mouth to take a bite, and couldn't help but smile shyly when she heard the words. Isn't she too good to eat?

Sensing everyone's intentional or unintentional gaze, Yan Xiaoyu was a little uncomfortable eating. At a glance, she saw Princess Ruixiang squatting on the ground, looking at the bonfire in a daze, she couldn't help but lean over: "Princess, why don't you eat?" If she remembers correctly, Princess Ruixiang has been sullen since they left the bagpipe abyss, and lately she has gradually stopped eating much.

Hearing Yan Xiaoyi's words, Princess Ruixiang suddenly broke free from her apprehension, her eyes swept around, swept over Qingbai who was sitting opposite, and retracted her gaze for only a moment, and then shook her head lightly: "It's okay, maybe it's because I've been too busy on the road recently, and I haven't had much appetite." ”

Yan Xiaowei saw that her originally slightly plump cheeks had become thin and sharp, although she looked a little more mature than before, but if she continued like this, her body would be unbearable, and she couldn't help but feel a little worried.

"Princess, if you don't have a good appetite, why don't I help you prescribe a few pairs of Chinese medicine to strengthen your stomach and eliminate appetite?"

Princess Ruixiang shook her head slowly, and did not answer, but instead looked at Rong Xiu: "How long will it take for us to arrive in the capital?" ”

Rong Xiu wrung his eyebrows: "Now that the snow is covering the mountain, it turns out that the way back to Beijing has been blocked." If we want to go, we can only detour from other places, and if we calculate it, we will have to hurry up for three days. ”

When Princess Ruixiang heard this, her eyebrows frowned tightly, and her lips pouted dissatisfiedly: "What, it's going to snow, I haven't slept well for several days, and if I continue like this, I'm afraid I'll be tired to death on the way." ”

As soon as her voice fell, Baili Ye scolded lightly: "Ruixiang! Don't talk nonsense at a young age, what is dead, dead, unlucky! ”

Princess Ruixiang pursed her lips and muttered something in a low voice, but finally didn't dare to speak again.

Qingbai on the side stared at the ground and blinked, and took the initiative to speak for the first time in the morning: "We have been complaining in the wild for the past two days, and we people who live in tents are nothing, I'm afraid the girls in the team can't bear it." The Third Highness, the Ninth Highness, and the Little General, why don't you stay at the inn today! As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pointed ahead: "Go around the two mountains in front of you, and there will be a village, so let's stay in the village tonight!" ”

Although the object of his speech was Rong Xiu and them, the content was to care about Princess Ruixiang.

After saying that, although he didn't have any facial expression, for Princess Ruixiang, she was flattered! At this moment, her big eyes were staring at Qingbai, as if she might cry with joy at any time!

Before, Princess Ruixiang dragged Yan Xiaoyan and them south in order to find Qingbai, but after finally finding Qingbai, he was cold to Princess Ruixiang, and even said a lot of hurtful words.

However, at this time, Qingbai's few simple words made her warm up instantly. The person who was still languishing just now instantly seemed to be injected with infinite vitality, and the whole person came to life.

Yan Xiaowei watched from the sidelines, and couldn't help but shake her head and sigh, woman, once you move your heart, even the eighteenth layer of hell may not be able to stop it, right?

Rong Xiu was obviously a little surprised when he heard Qingbai's words, but after thinking about it, although Qingbai was cold to Princess Ruixiang, he had grown up with Qingbai since he was a child, and he had already figured out his temperament clearly. If Qingbai really had no feelings for Princess Ruixiang, according to his character, he would never say these words this time.

Presumably, Qingbai is still hindered by the disparity in the identity of Princess Ruixiang, so he forced himself to cut off the love thread! However, how can human feelings be what their hearts want?

Thinking so, he nodded to everyone: "Then it's decided!" In the past few days, everyone has been running all the way, and it is time to find a slightly more comfortable place to stay. ”

Everyone was discussing, and suddenly, a pigeon flew over their heads, and its wings fluttered and fell into Rong Xiu's hands.

The pigeon had a red agate leg band tied to its feet, and this little thing Yan Xiaoyu knew about it, and only when it was used in the palace to convey very urgent news, this carrier pigeon would be used. At this moment, when she saw this pigeon, she couldn't help but mention it on the Internet, could it be that something big happened in the palace?

Rong Xiu quickly took down the silk paper hidden on the leg band, as if to verify her bad conjecture, and hurriedly read it, his face changed suddenly.

Yan Xiaowei saw that his face was not good, her heart tightened, and she hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Rong Xiu pursed his lips and didn't speak, but handed the silk paper in his hand to Baili Yesu and Baili Yechen on the side.

When the two of them saw the handwriting on the silk paper, their faces changed suddenly.

Seeing this, Princess Ruixiang hurriedly leaned over, and when she saw the handwriting on it, she stood up from the ground with a panic on her face: "What? Did you encounter an assassin while your father was hunting? How is this possible! No, I want to go back to Beijing immediately, and go to see my father immediately! ”

She was emotional and out of control, and her eyes turned red in an instant.

Baili Ye Su hurriedly reached out and grabbed her shoulder, trying to stabilize her: "Ruixiang, you calm down first, my father will definitely be fine." It's useless for you to be anxious now, we are so far away from the capital, we can't grow wings and fly back all at once, right? ”

When Princess Ruixiang heard this, there was a bag of tears in her eyes, her nose was red, and her eyes widened to try not to let the tears fall, but her trembling voice still leaked her uneasiness at the moment.

Her voice was already crying: "Brother Huang, didn't you see what was written on the silk paper?" said that his father was seriously injured and unconscious! I don't care, I must go back to see my father immediately! My father loves me the most, and at this time, I must be by her side! ”

At this moment, Baili Yechen also restrained his usual wild and uninhibited appearance, his handsome face was tight, he looked at Ruixiang crying and making trouble, and couldn't help but scold: "Okay, Ruixiang, calm down!" ”

As he spoke, his eyes swept around: "Let's be quiet about this matter, my father is not only our father, but also the king of a country." Just imagine, the king of a country was assassinated, and now he is unconscious, what will happen if these things are heard by someone with a heart? The news just now was quietly transmitted by the father's henchman Wang Gonggong, and the red-legged pigeon was also used, which means that the matter is urgent. However, he did not urge us to go back immediately, which shows that things are not as bad as imagined. ”

Princess Ruixiang still shook her head: "No, I'm still not at ease." Brother Huang, let's go back quickly! I really...... Afraid! ”

Rong Xiu stopped Baili Yesu and Baili Yechen, discussed it roughly, and decided to leave for Beijing immediately, all the way quickly, without repairing!

After the discussion, everyone immediately set off for Beijing. Princess Ruixiang was obviously worried about Bai Liying, and she had a bitter face all the way, and the people who couldn't eat were even more inadequate.

Yan Xiaowei looked at her, holding the pastries returned by Princess Ruixiang, shook her head helplessly, she reached out and grabbed Rong Xiu: "If it goes on like this, I'm afraid she won't be able to stand it before she arrives in the capital, and she must find a way to let her eat something!" ”

Qingbai, who had been walking aside, listened, and suddenly came over and took the pastry box in Yan Xiaoyi's hand, lifted the curtain of the carriage where Princess Ruixiang was, and got into it without saying anything.

After a while, a low, suppressed cry came from the carriage, which was heartbreaking, and even those who listened couldn't bear it.

Yan Xiaoyi's body was sore from the bumps of the car and horse that increased her speed, but she didn't care about it at all. She was thinking all the way, what kind of person dared to break into the royal garden and shoot arrows at the emperor?

It is said that when Bai Liying's birthday was approaching, he was in a good mood and personally led a group of men and horses to the Linhai Royal Garden to hunt, trying to get a good omen before his birthday.

Also going with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Baili Ye Ming, the Prince's deceased mother Concubine Zhuang's brother Zhuang Qingfeng, as well as this year's new champions, Bangyan, Tanhua, etc., the mighty team of nearly 100 people may be mixed with people with ill intentions and attempts to rebel. But how easy is it to find out?

What's more serious is that I don't know what Bailiying's current physical condition is, if he really dies unfortunately, then Baili Dynasty is afraid that it will usher in a bloody storm!

After being anxious all the way, the carriage and horse finally entered the capital.

At that time, it was already noon two days later, and the gates of the capital had long been tightly closed. Pan Shu, who was led by Rong Xiu, flashed his waist card, and a group of talents entered the city in a mighty way.

Because they were worried about Baili Ying, the Baili brothers and sisters immediately returned to the palace. Rong Xiu sent Yan Xiaoyun and Yan Haiyue back to Yan Mansion, and hurriedly brought a large number of troops back to the General's Mansion.

After leaving for a few months, returning to Yan's Mansion at this time, Yan Xiaoyu suddenly felt like a world away.

Because it was too late, the two ordered the family to inform Yan Haisheng, and when they heard that he had fallen asleep, they decided not to disturb the old man's house, and they retreated.

Yan Haiyue snorted coldly at her with her nose and left without looking back.

However, Lingxiang heard the movement, put on a piece of clothing and rushed all the way from Mufeng Courtyard, and when she saw Yan Xiaoyun and Yaxiang, she immediately choked up: "Second girl, you are finally back!" ”

Yan Xiaoyi smiled and hugged her: "What's the matter, I haven't seen you these days, how are you in the house?" ”

Ling Xiang blinked with red eyes: "It's not very good!" There's a lot going on in the house! ”

Yan Xiaowei listened, her eyebrows twisted, and she hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Ling Xiang pursed her lips, and then said: "Since the eldest lady was locked up in a cold house by the lord last time, after a long time, she suddenly wants to become a monk!" The old man persuaded her a few times, but finally he couldn't let her go, and let her go to the celadon nunnery in the suburbs. The eldest girl quarreled with the master because of this, and it took a while to calm down, and she told the master that she wanted to go out and be quiet, and she didn't come back with the second girl until today. ”

Yan Xiaoyu bit her lip, no wonder Yan Haiyue became so yin and yang, and she was still mixed with Baili Yechen, it turned out that this was the case.

Over there, Ling Xiang hadn't finished speaking: "Not long after the eldest girl left, Aunt Liu suddenly disappeared!" I didn't even leave a letter, and the strange one disappeared! Strangely enough, though, the things in her room were the same! Now there is everything in the mansion, and many subordinates say that our Yan Mansion is bound by something unclean, so it is such a mess. Now, even the subordinates are almost gone, and the Yan Mansion, which was originally good, is now scattered! ”

Speaking of this, Ling Xiang suddenly became depressed, but the corners of her mouth picked up in just a moment: "However, now that the second girl, you are back, it is good that there is popularity in this mansion again!" ”

Unexpectedly, in the past few months since she went out, such a big thing happened in the Yan Mansion! What the hell is going on here?

She couldn't help but be a little anxious: "Something so big, why didn't you write to tell me?" How is my dad, okay? ”

Lingxiang blinked innocently: "I wanted to write a letter to the girl, but the master was afraid that you would worry, so he didn't let me say it!" At first, the old man was nothing, but then Aunt Liu suddenly disappeared, and the old man fell ill all of a sudden. Originally, he had been poisoned, although the poison was later cured, but he was still weak, and he never liked this disease. I lay on the bed for a long time to recover! Even the official of the Taifu also resigned! If it weren't for the girl's medical hall to maintain it, I'm afraid our Yan family would have to live on the old bottom! ”

After saying so much, she was a little dry for a while: "But don't worry, girl, the master is in good health now, and he is in a much better mood without the troubles of court affairs." According to your instructions when you left, our Lian Yitang hired a few good doctors, and Brother Ye Zhen often helped take care of it, and the business was very good. ”

Hearing this, Yan Xiaoyi's heart was bitter and sweet for a while, and she sat in the Mufeng Courtyard, which was both familiar and unfamiliar, and she didn't come back to her senses for a long time.

After a while, Yan Xiaowei suddenly came back to his senses, and hurriedly beckoned to call out the Shadow Guard Dragon Bone!
