Chapter 422: Ambush (1)
Autumn is getting cooler, Fang Qingxue is more than two months pregnant, and it is the time when she will be unstable. The girl in the courtyard was careful in everything, for fear that something would happen, and she was punished by the four princes. Cui Ruo has been very stable these days, which can be called self-cultivation, and he copied Buddhist scriptures in Ruiyu Pavilion every day to pray for the dead Brother Chen.
The four princes finally remembered their past feelings and went to visit him once, Cui Ruoxing was immediately grateful, and thanked him for his forgiveness. The fourth prince was even more sad, thinking that Brother Chen was her biological son after all, and as a mother, she was naturally more heartbroken than herself. Thinking of this, he sent the newly arrived brocade jewelry, reprimanded the subordinates of Ruiyu Pavilion for neglecting his master, and ordered Cui Ruo to be good at life.
There was a dark tide in the house for a while, Concubine Cui still turned over in the end, who can win the pity of the four princes more with the new wife and old concubine?
In the afternoon of this day, Cui Ruo was dressed in a thin pink shirt and entered the main courtyard timidly. Miaoli and Junchuan are like big enemies, Fang Qingxue smiled faintly, stroked her lower abdomen and told them to let Cui Ruo in.
Cui Ruo's behavior was very regular, and when he saw Fang Qingxue, he didn't go closer, but just saluted from afar, and then said: "My sister is guilty and confessed her body in the Ruiyu Pavilion, and it is really a big mistake to come to my sister to say goodbye today, and I ask my sister for forgiveness." ”
"Sister is very polite, you and I are a family." Fang Qingxue's eyebrows were gentle, without the slightest hint of disgust.
Cui Ruo thought that he would suffer a lot, but when he heard this, he pursed his lips, restrained the stunned in his heart, lowered his head and said, "Thank you sister for forgiveness, my sister is grateful." She motioned to the maid behind her, and the maid immediately stepped forward to offer the things, and said: "The concubine gave birth to Brother Chen's child very smoothly, so my sister made a few auspicious objects, hoping that the child in my sister's womb can also be born smoothly, so that my sister will suffer less sin." ”
Miao Li stepped forward to take it over and gave Fang Qingxue a look, Fang Qingxue looked at it one by one, but it was just some small objects, all of which were used by children, with a golden belly pocket, which could make people see the delicate intentions, and it was not eye-catching.
Fang Qingxue looked at her.
Cui Ruosheng is a flawless beauty, her eyes are like water, her face is like a pink peach, like a spring flower blooming, and she shines from the inside out, which makes people feel pleasing to the eye.
"You've got a heart."
Cui Ruo didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly said, "It's good if my sister doesn't dislike it." ”
coincided with the return of the fourth prince, and seeing that Cui Ruo was also a little suspicious here, but seeing that everyone's expressions were as usual, Fang Qingxue didn't have anything wrong, so he also put his mind at ease, asked a few words, and said, "You are attentive, go back first." ”
Cui Ruo's eyes turned red instantly, tears swirled in his eyes, his voice was soft and fragile, and he said, "Yes, the concubine retires." ”
The fourth prince looked at her leaving back and frowned slightly and stood for a while, then turned around and asked, "How are you today?" If you are tired, sleep for more hours. ”
Fang Qingxue instructed people to set the meal, and said: "My spirit has improved a lot in the past few days, and the prescription prescribed by the imperial doctor has worked." Not as sleepy as it was before. ”
Fang Qingxue obviously felt that the fourth prince was looking at her when he was looking at her, and seemed to think that she would have a lot of criticism for Cui Ruo. She smiled faintly and said: "Sister Cui lost her child, and now that I have my father's flesh and blood in my womb, she will inevitably be sad, so it is better for me to visit her a few times to comfort her heart." ”
The fourth prince was slightly stunned for a moment, put a piece of bamboo shoots in his mouth and said, "Brother Chen'er died young, it was her fault. ”
What if it's her fault, or doesn't it evoke old feelings? Fang Qingxue had a faint ridicule in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face, she only said: "Even if there is a mistake, as a mother, she must be sad in her heart, not to mention, everything she does is for the sake of her master, which is understandable." ”
The fourth prince put down his chopsticks and gently held Fang Qingxue's hand, and said, "I knew that you were understanding, but I didn't expect you to be so gentle. ”
Fang Qingxue held him back and smiled lightly: "You and I are husband and wife, I have to think about my lord everywhere, and take care of all the personnel in the house, and if my master says this, it will torment me." ”
The two looked at each other and smiled, and their affection was even greater.
Ruiyu Pavilion, Cui Ruo was meditating in the house, thinking about Fang Qingxue's various words to her today, she couldn't help but show a sneer, and thought that this Princess Gaoyang was so powerful, but it was just relying on the name of Princess Da'an and the help of Gongsun Lan. It seems that in the Four Princes' Mansion, she is still the most courageous.
On the second day, Cui Ruo went to the main courtyard again to ask for peace. She didn't say much, just greeted carefully and bowed her head respectfully. In the eyes of outsiders, Cui Ruo seems to have surrendered to the four princesses and princesses, and he does not dare to make a mistake.
She is like this day by day, and the discussions in the mansion have gradually faded, and the four princes have also begun to walk around Cui Ruo occasionally, although they do not stay overnight, it also makes the people in the mansion change their eyes, and they dare not snub Cui Ruo.
Fang Qingxue saw all this in her eyes and remained silent.
On this day, the autumn air is high and cool, and the oppressive damp breath is swept away.
Fang Qingxue stood in front of the court, and saw Cui Ruo walking over with a soft and cowardly posture in a light apricot color, reflecting the orange, yellow, willow and green flowers in front of the court, like a handful of autumn frost, which was about to melt in one breath.
It's really a rare beauty.
"Sister's body is very important, the sun is still very poisonous in the afternoon, why are you standing here?"
After Cui Ruo finished speaking, before Fang Qingxue could react, she slammed her foot on the stone steps, and the whole person rushed straight forward.
A hint of fierceness flashed between Fang Qingxue's eyebrows, and before Cui Ruo's hand touched her, she fell softly into the arms of Junchuan, who was always ready to deal with the accident.
"Master, are you alright?" Miaoli exclaimed in surprise and hurriedly went to help.
Cui Ruo also hurriedly got up from the stone steps, knelt on the ground and said in a trembling voice: "Sister forgive your sins." ”
Fang Qingxue stood up, looked at her deeply, and said, "It's okay." ”
Cui Ruo looked at her with tears in her eyes, looking guilty and about to die.
Fang Qingxue stepped forward to help her, and smiled softly: "My sister also has to take care of her body." ”
Cui Ruose shrank for a moment, a little unsure whether this was Fang Qingxue's true face, and responded cautiously.
……
In autumn, there will still be a period of time when it will be hot. Seeing that the sun was boundless, Gongsun Lan was inevitably a little irritable, raising the curtain of the car and drying it badly, and it was very stuffy when it fell. simply asked Yuechen for a horse, and it was more comfortable to run.
After a while, Gongsun Lan suddenly stopped, raised his hand to signal everyone to stop, listened quietly around, and said in a low voice: "Did you hear anything?" ”
Gongsun Lan's acumen was well known, and everyone did not dare to slack off, and immediately took a breath and listened quietly.
Yuechen listened for a while, and then said in a low voice: "There are people walking through the woods, and there seem to be quite a few people. ”
"He must have heard the sound of our horses' hooves, too."
"Miss, shall we go up and have a look?"
"Of course I want to go." In such a sensitive period, the occurrence of such a situation cannot be ignored. "Let the horses go first, wait in front, and draw a team of light kung fu to follow me."
"Yes."
When the chaotic sound of horses' hooves gradually faded away, Gongsun Lan discerned the direction, directly tapped his foot, jumped onto the tree, and chased quickly into the depths of the woods from above.
At this time, in front, a group of people was walking cautiously, moving quickly, tall and burly, all carrying snow-bright long knives in their hands.
The first person looked at him sharply and said, "No, someone has come up." ”
The others were startled, and they all stopped and stood in place, tightly restraining their murderous aura, not daring to make a sound.
"It's not good." The leader did not hesitate for a moment, and ordered in a low voice: "Disperse and prepare for an ambush." ”
The group quickly dispersed, without the slightest bit of mud and water, and at a glance they knew that they were well-trained.
Later, Gongsun Lan and the others chased after a distance, then slowed down, and said in a low voice: "The other party has discovered us." ”
Yuechen carefully swept around and said, "Do we want to hide?" ”
"They have been hidden, let's hide again, when will this battle be fought." Gongsun Lan thought for a while and said, "I'll take a few people to kill them from the front to attract their attention, and the rest of the people will spread out and kill them one by one." ”
After everyone dispersed, she already felt the person closest to her, so she stopped, and the bone knife in her hand immediately shot out sharply forward, and the man hiding there snorted, and there was no movement, and there were several breaths around her that suddenly fluctuated, Gongsun Lan did not hesitate, and almost shot at the same time as the other party made a sound.
But the hands of these people were obviously not weak, and two of them even only suffered some flesh wounds, and when they saw that their bodies were exposed, they immediately reacted and attacked Gongsun Lan!
Gongsun Lan's eyes were clear, his subordinates flew over, and he pulled out the soft whip on his waist and went straight up, but the other party didn't expect that she would refuse to back down for half a point, and her movements were sluggish. Yuechen took the opportunity to step forward and turned over to disrupt the cooperation of those people.
The rest of the people hiding in the shadows became nervous at this scene and looked in the direction of their leader.
The man at the head showed a fierce look in his eyes and said fiercely: "Kill them!" ”
However, as soon as they moved, the flanking people had already arrived, and the two sides were suddenly entangled in one place.
Gongsun Lan heard the accent of the other party's speech, raised her lips and smiled, and said, "Sure enough, it's a spy from Baimeng?!" ”
The leader of the other party narrowed his eyes when he heard this, and said in a deep voice: "Brothers, don't leave a single one!" ”
Gongsun Lan sneered and said, "Qingtian dreams in the daytime!" Brothers, let's catch it alive! ”
This remark was simply a naked provocation, and the other party's leader showed a trace of cruelty in his eyes, and suddenly exerted his strength: "Go and die!" ”
Gongsun Lan knew that his hand was not weak, but he was still taken aback by the fierceness of the other party, seeing that the other party's bright sword light slashed down at Yuechen's head, she suddenly threw out a long whip and wrapped Yuechen in it, Yuechen's face turned a little whiter, and with the strength of Gongsun Lan's whip, she quickly retreated, and she was able to avoid the opponent's attack!
The other party's expression showed a trace of disdain, and he pursued after the victory, grinning: "Today next year, it will be ......"
Before he could finish his sentence, his eyes suddenly widened, revealing a look of extreme horror......
