"Actually, I also went because I was on official business, so I went, cough cough, I went to Wanhualou, who would have thought that I just happened to encounter a murder ......"

While speaking, Ning Xiuhan glanced at Jing Yuan with a weak heart, but seeing that Jing Yuan did not pay attention to the matter of going to Wanhua Tower, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, but at the same time he breathed a sigh of relief, he was faintly a little lost.

Is it because they don't pay attention to it, so they don't care?

Ning Xiuhan pursed his lips, forcibly suppressed the trace of displeasure in his heart, and continued: "Originally, that official wanted to be perfunctory, but since I met him, I must not let an innocent life be lost!" So I came with me, but I didn't expect to meet the princess here...... It turns out that there is a providence in the dark. ”

In the last sentence, what Ning Xiuhan said was full of deep meaning.

Listening to Ning Xiuhan's words, Jing Yuan was still a little uneasy in his heart, but he finally calmed down.

After Ning Xiuhan's arrangement, Jing Yuan went to the East Palace first, and then sent people back to the palace by the hand of the crown prince Chu Lingyu.

When Jing Yuan appeared in front of the queen with a sad heart, the queen hugged Jing Yuan tightly and cried loudly: "My son, let you suffer......

"Queen Mother's ......"

Jing Yuan's nose also felt sour, and the grievances of the past few days suddenly came to his heart, and he kept shedding tears in the queen's arms: "Jing Yuan is so afraid that he will never see the queen mother again, and it is Jing Yuan's ......unfilial piety to make the queen mother worry."

"It's good to be back, it's good to be back!"

Feeling that her kitten-like daughter seemed to be trembling in her arms, the queen's heart felt more and more painful.

The mother and daughter hugged their heads and cried for a long time, and then the queen began to ask about what happened that day.

"It seems that the guards in this palace should teach a good lesson!"

The queen said hatefully: "The princess, she can be taken away by others in the palace, if it is spread out, it won't make people laugh off their big teeth?!" ”

"Hmm...... In fact, Mu Mingxuan said that there is a peerless master hidden in our palace, and he was also seriously injured, as for the ordinary guards, I am afraid that the martial arts are really inferior to him, and if they can't find it, they are ......also normal."

Jing Yuan pursed his lips and subconsciously defended.

"You, are you speaking for Luo Changan?"

The queen thought about it for a moment, and then asked tentatively.

"Huh?"

Jing Yuan was stunned for a moment, and looked at the queen with some puzzlement.

Seeing that the expression on Jing Yuan's face did not seem to be fake, the queen breathed a sigh of relief, but immediately there was a touch of pity in her eyes, and explained to Jing Yuan: "It was Luo Chang'an who was on duty in front of the emperor that day, as the leader of the guards, there was such a mistake, I heard that he blamed himself very much in the past few days, and sent troops to find it without sleep...... It's just that because of your identity, you don't dare to publicize it in a big way, so it has been delayed for a while......"

The queen pursed her lips, and a hint of complexity flashed in her eyes.

"And what about my disappearance...... Does my father know? Everyone in the palace, especially Concubine Rou and Jingyi, what wind did they hear? ”

After a moment of silence, Jing Yuan asked.

Others are okay, but if this handle is handed to their mother and daughter, I am afraid it will be difficult to be good.

A hint of hesitation flashed in the queen's eyes, and Jing Yuan's heart sank, and she was a little counted.

After all, Princess Yan has been missing for two days, and troops have been sent outside to look for her, I'm afraid that only the blind and deaf don't know what happened, even if everyone didn't pierce this layer of window paper, it was just to maintain the affection on face.

"Although your father didn't say it explicitly, he secretly sent people to search around, but he didn't expect that as soon as he dispersed the people, Lord Ning found you...... Jing Yuan, you had a lot of complaints about Lord Ning before, but now, Lord Ning not only did not hold a grudge against you, but saved you regardless of the previous suspicions, and you must not slander Lord Ning in the future......"

Thinking of this, the queen hurriedly said another word of advice behind her.

"Queen Mother, Jing Yuan is very grateful to Lord Ning for taking me back to the palace, but one yard is one yard, especially when it comes to court affairs, Jing Yuan is also ......"

Jing Yuan frowned, and just wanted to open his mouth to argue, but seeing the queen's disapproving face, he sighed slightly in his heart, and changed his words in a kind way: "Don't worry, as long as Lord Ning is loyal to Li Guo, for his father, and for the prince's brother, Jing Yuan will definitely not deliberately trouble him!" ”

"That's right!"

The queen finally had a smile on her face, and looked at Jing Yuan with a gratifying face: "Anyway, you are the princess of the Li Kingdom, and your every move represents the Li Kingdom......

"The queen mother's lesson, Jing Yuan wrote down."

Jing Yuan lowered his head, and an indescribable color flashed in his eyes.

I don't know...... How is he?

Jing Yuan bit his lower lip, and his eyes suddenly drifted a little.

Mu Mingxuan in a tavern suddenly sneezed, which startled Xiao Er, who was pouring wine on the side.

"Lord, this sneeze is really loud......"

Xiao Er came back to his senses and looked stunned: "The weather is getting colder and colder, you should pay attention to keeping warm, if you get caught by the cold, you will suffer a felony again!" ”

"Master, this is not a wind and cold," Mu Mingxuan chuckled, drank all the wine poured out by Fang Cai Xiaoer, and then said mysteriously, "There is a peerless beauty who is thinking about Ye......"

Xiao Er looked confused, touched the back of his head, and only said nonsense when this master drank too much.

Huayang Palace.

"Is this news true?!"

Concubine Rou gritted her teeth and stared at the palace maid in front of her.

"Hui Niangniang's words, it's true, the slave maid saw with her own eyes, Princess Jingyuan has indeed returned to the palace......"

Xiqiu nodded, and said eagerly: "I heard that Lord Ning brought Princess Jingyuan back, and now she is being called to Fengyi Palace by the queen mother to speak......

"Ning Xiuhan, it's Ning Xiuhan again!"

Concubine Rou's eyes widened, and her hand slapped on the table, never thinking that the table was too hard, and under the reaction, her hand hurt when she slapped it.

The tears of pain were about to burst out, but Concubine Rou couldn't show it on her face, so she could only vent her resentment on Ning Xiuhan's body: "It's a loss for Jingyi to him...... Hmph, helping Jingyuan five times, such a person, how can Bengong rest assured that Jingyi will be married to him?! ”

Xiqiu was shocked in her heart, she didn't know what was going on between Princess Jingyi and Lord Ning, and she didn't dare to speak rashly at this time, so she could only lower her head and try to reduce her sense of existence, for fear that Concubine Rou would get angry and implicate herself.

Seeing Xiqiu's cautious appearance, Concubine Rou was even more depressed in her heart.

"Okay, okay, you stand down!"

Concubine Rou waved her hand impatiently, and scolded Xiqiu very ironcladly: "You and the people who were trained in the palace of Xichun City, why are you so old, and you can't stand it so much!" If there is nothing to do in the future, don't hang out in front of the palace! ”

Xiqiu bit her lower lip deadly, lowered her head, and endured the grievances in her heart, and then replied in a low voice: "Yes...... The slave and maid retired. ”

A smug look appeared in the eyes of Xichun, who was waiting on the side, but it only flashed, and then she pretended to persuade Concubine Rou: "Niangniang, Xiqiu is such a character, why do you want to be angry with her?" Besides, there are slaves and maids, as long as the mother commands, the slaves and maids will go up the knife mountain and go down to the sea of fire, and they will definitely do it properly for the mother! ”

"Good thing you're here!"

Concubine Rou also sighed heavily, rubbed her temples with her hands, and said a little tiredly: "Two days ago, the palace said that Jing Yuan was missing and was not in the palace...... But who would have thought that this kidnapped person would come back so soon, and now everyone has already returned to the palace, and if they want to make trouble again, it will be too late...... Missing such a great opportunity in vain, this palace is really unwilling! ”

As she spoke, a thick gloomy color flashed in Concubine Rou's eyes.

Xichun naturally felt a pity in his heart, if he made a fuss about this matter two days ago, I am afraid that Princess Jingyuan will return to the palace, and it will only increase the laughing stock.

But now......

Xichun frowned, her mind turned, she secretly glanced at Concubine Rou, and then said tentatively to Concubine Rou: "Niangniang, in fact, this matter is not completely impossible......

Concubine Rou's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly turned her head to Xichun, her face full of excitement: "Could it be that you have any ideas?" Come on! This palace says that you are a capable person, unlike those garbage! ”

Xichun was happy in her heart, and leaned into Concubine Rou's ear, a touch of excitement flashed in her eyes, and she lowered her voice and said to Concubine Rou: "How did Niangniang forget, sometimes it is plausible, which is the most imaginative......"

"Plausible?"

Concubine Rou was stunned for a moment, carefully recalled these words in her heart, and suddenly her eyes lit up.

"Yes, it's Hongu who is confused!"

A smug smile flashed on Concubine Rou's lips, she took a long breath of relief, and slowly put her back on the chair: "If you rush up directly, you will inevitably provoke the emperor's disgust, but this leisurely crowd, even if the emperor wants to block it, it is not so easy for him!" ”

"What the mother said is very ......"

Xichun whispered a compliment on the side.

Before evening, the news that Princess Jingyuan had "returned to the palace" spread throughout the harem.

"So...... The princess really wasn't in the palace a few days ago? ”

A palace maid was holding a food box in her hand and tilted her head to look at her companions on the side.

"Not really!"

The companion looked around mysteriously, and didn't find anyone else, so he couldn't wait to share the gossip he had just heard: "I heard what Grandma Sun of the Huanyi Bureau said, didn't she take someone to Limo Palace yesterday to deliver the washed clothes, and I heard it by ear!" ”

"Tut-tut......"

The original palace maid shook her head, sighed in a low voice and said, "You said that Princess Jingyuan is a woman, and she has been out of the palace for so long, and I don't know if she has been ......."

"Shh

The companion hurriedly made a silent gesture with his hand, glared at the palace maid, and whispered, "You don't want to die!" There are some things that you can't say! ”

The palace maid was in her heart, lowered her head, and hurriedly walked forward......
