Chapter 246: Nine Deaths and One Life1
The person who was preparing the sobering soup was not someone else, it was Zhao Yiheng's only son, Zhao Ziyue.
He just saw that Mu Mingshu seemed to be in great interest, and he drank a lot of fruit wine cup after cup, thinking that if he was drunk, he was afraid that he would have a bad headache tomorrow, so he specially came out and ordered the palace maid to prepare the sobering soup, but where did he think that he would meet Yina who was waiting for the opportunity.
When the palace was seized, Zhao Ziyue was persecuted by Yina, although he was not very old at the time, he had a very deep impression of Yina as a person, and he even remembered that the footprints on his chest at that time had been left for a long time before dissipating.
Although Ina's face is no longer there, he may not have seen it for a long time, but he still remembers the general appearance, and he recognizes it after a little thought.
Ina didn't know that Zhao Ziyue still recognized herself, but this was not very important, she tightened the hairpin in her hand and smiled kindly, but lowered her voice and said: "Great prince, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”
Zhao Ziyue knew that Yina was also on the boat, and naturally knew that she was not free, and it must be unusual for her to suddenly appear now. He frowned slightly, as if Zhao Yiheng was enough, and looked at Ina vigilantly and asked in a deep voice, "What do you want to do?" ”
Ina didn't answer, but looked at Zhao Ziyue's appearance and was stunned, but it was retracted in an instant, and then a weird smile appeared on her face, and Fang Cai's mind of wanting to kill Mu Mingshu changed this time.
Everyone in the world knows that Zhao Yiheng is just this one son, although he is strictly disciplined on weekdays, but that is also his heart and liver with Mu Mingshu, no one can move it, and now
Ina couldn't wait to know what would happen if Mu Mingshu lost her only son.
She approached Zhao Ziyue very slowly, and there was a gloomy aura around her so that Zhao Ziyue couldn't help but retreat, a pair of narrow phoenix eyes stared at Yina tightly, and her heart jumped suddenly for no reason.
Zhao Ziyue didn't know that his father and mother had set up a special bureau today, but he knew that the person in front of him was definitely not a good one, he took two steps back and stopped retreating, and now there is no one around to guard, and even if he is capable, he is just a child, so he did not open his mouth and shouted: "Someone, there are assassins"
Before the words fell, Ina stepped forward and grabbed Zhao Ziyue, covering his mouth and telling him not to shout, Zhao Ziyue tried to struggle a few times, but his size suffered and he couldn't gain the upper hand.
However, Mu Mingshu, who was waiting for Ina in the cabin to throw herself into the net, did not hear Zhao Ziyue's voice, but suddenly felt her whole heart panic, she suddenly got up from her seat, and saw many female dependents looking at her, so she sat down again.
Miaoqin saw that her face was very ugly, so she stepped forward and asked, "What do you have any instructions?" ”
Mu Mingshu thought for a while, and finally said, "Ask someone to go out and see where the eldest prince has gone?" He added: "Look at what the emperor is doing." ”
Now that Ina hasn't appeared yet, she shouldn't have startled the snake at this juncture, but the panic in her heart for no reason made Mu Mingshu really feel at ease.
Miaoqin also knew that it was really important not to startle the snake when catching turtles in the urn today, otherwise it would be a failure, but looking at Mu Mingshu's ugly face, he still deserved to go out with a bang.
But she had just gone out when Mu Mingshu heard a scream, followed by Miaoqin's loud shout: "Princess Ina, what are you doing?" Let the eldest prince go. ”
Mu Mingshu heard the word Yina clearly in the cabin, and was suddenly startled, and he didn't care about anything else, so he said with a cold face: "Go out and take a look." ”
When she first set up this bureau, Zhao Yiheng was worried that Ina would hurt Mu Mingshu if she went crazy, and he strongly objected, but he couldn't resist his own lady, and finally agreed, but just in case, there were many masters hidden in this small cabin.
At this time, as soon as Mu Mingshu gave the order, someone immediately flashed out of the door. The chief guard was afraid that he had a plan, and when he saw that Mu Mingshu was going outside again, he hurriedly took someone out to protect her, but he scared the female dependents very much.
The movement in the cabin alarmed Yina, she dragged Zhao Ziyue tightly, but she was afraid for a while, only at this moment did she know that Mu Mingshu was only afraid that she was waiting for herself to take the bait, if she didn't make a fuss with Zhao Ziyue just now, she was afraid that she would die if she entered the cabin.
Her expression changed, and she dragged Zhao Ziyue and scolded: "Cheap." ”
"You let go of the eldest prince, otherwise" Miaoqin saw Zhao Ziyue who was dragged in Yina's hands, and her heart was so frightened that her heart was about to jump out, saying that the rabbit was going to bite if she was in a hurry, not to mention that it was not a rabbit, she was really afraid that Yina would go crazy and what would happen to Zhao Ziyue.
Ina sneered, seeing that several masters came out of the cabin one after another, she lost her patience: "Otherwise? ”
didn't wait for Miaoqin to answer, but Yina glanced at Zhao Ziyue sideways, and said with a smile: "It's a death after all, with the eldest prince of your capital, this princess is worth dying." After saying this, she picked up the silver hairpin in her hand and stabbed it at Zhao Ziyue without hesitation, only to hear Zhao Ziyue snort, she pulled out the silver hairpin and threw it on the plywood, and jumped into the moat with Zhao Ziyue in her arms.
Mu Mingshu's people rushed out of the cabin, but they only saw a corner of Ina's clothes, and when Mu Mingshu came out by himself, he saw a bloody silver hairpin on the deck, and several guards who could swim jumped into the river, and Miaoqin was half lying on the railing looking at the black moat and crying.
Her heart trembled, and she hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Miaoqin turned sideways to Mu Mingshu's eyes, and said with difficulty but concisely: "Princess Xiliang jumped into the moat with the eldest prince." ”
Mu Mingshu didn't seem to understand this, he stood there stunned for a while, neither spoke nor moved, but after half a loud sound, he fell straight into consciousness in front of him.
When Zhao Yiheng heard the news, there was already a mess on the splint, Miaoqin knelt there and hugged Mu Mingshu only to cry, and the captain of the guard was also messed up, while diving into the water to save people, he had to guard Mu Mingshu who was unconscious.
"Light all the torches, the water will go down, and you must save the eldest prince." When Zhao Yiheng came over, he had already figured out the matter.
In the end, he is the king of a country, even when he encounters such a major event, he can still force himself to calm down and calmly order everything, because he knows that he can't mess up, if he is also messed up at this juncture, then Zhao Ziyue will definitely not be able to save him.
He squatted down and picked up Mu Mingshu and sent him into the resting cabin, and the whole person looked calm, as if the eldest prince fell into the water and there was nothing serious, but no one noticed that his hands couldn't stop trembling.
"Lock up the envoy of Xiliang, and don't let him die."
"Put the boat on the shore and ask the nearby fishermen to help find the person."
"Seeing Princess Xiliang, don't worry about killing."
As he walked, he gave three orders in succession, each of which was cold and merciless.
However, what is even more cold and ruthless than him is that Zhao Ziyue has no news!
All night, Zhao Yiheng stood on the splint and looked at the rushing river in front of him, his face was pale, and the sky was already white, but neither Zhao Ziyue nor Yina had the slightest news.
The people who went into the water to salvage changed batch after batch, and after soaking in the cold and biting water of the first month, everyone was exhausted, even those fishermen who had lived on the water for a long time could not stand it.
Zhao Yiheng put his hands behind his back, his fists squeaked, and the remorse in his heart was incomprehensible, at the beginning, he should have killed Ina with one sword, he shouldn't have left this slut to live for so long.
He wants Xiliang Kingdom, and there are many ways, but if Zhao Ziyue has a little difference, he can't get his own life back.
No one knows what he feels in his heart, the world only sees him with a calm appearance, but no one knows that he can't wait to go down to the river to find Zhao Ziyue, but he can't, he can't mess up.
"Your Majesty, the queen has woken up." Miaoqin guarded Mu Mingshu all night, at this time, a pair of eyes were not only red and swollen, but also full of bloodshots, standing behind Zhao Yiheng and said respectfully: "Niangniang said that I want to see you." ”
Zhao Yiheng pursed his lips and responded softly, then turned around and went to the cabin where Mu Mingshu was resting.
Mu Mingshu leaned on the big pillow, his little face was so white and transparent, he smiled reluctantly when he saw Zhao Yiheng, patted the couch and motioned for him to sit down.
Seeing Mu Mingshu like this, Zhao Yiheng felt even more uncomfortable, he walked over and sat down next to Mu Mingshu, but he didn't know how to speak for a while.
Mu Mingshu said, "Ziyue is okay, right?" ”
Zhao Yiheng opened his mouth, but found that his throat couldn't make a sound at all.
Mu Mingshu didn't hear the answer, but he asked again, so he took Mu Mingshu's hand and said softly: "I'm still looking for it." ”
He kept a heart in his throat all night, and he didn't hear a word he didn't find, as if someone had cut a knife in his heart, which hurt a lot, but he had to endure it, and maybe the next news would be good.
Zhao Yiheng has always maintained such a mentality, but when facing Mu Mingshu, he has no way to be calm.
He knew very well what Zhao Ziyue meant to them, this child was the inheritance of their husband and wife, Mu Mingshu's life, and his own life.
However, Mu Mingshu is just a mother, she doesn't have a big heart like Zhao Yiheng, Zhao Ziyue was brought up by her as soon as she landed, not to mention the hard work, but the feelings are also very deep.
At this time, when she heard Zhao Yiheng's sentence "I didn't find it", she suddenly exploded.
"What do you mean you're still looking for? A whole night has passed, so many people, not even a child has been found, what's the use of keeping them, they are all killed" She held on to the edge of the couch, her chest rose and fell, and she couldn't sit still at the thought of Zhao Ziyue, a child as small as Zhao Ziyue falling into the icy water all night without sound.
"No, I'm going to find him, he's never left me since he was born, I'm going to find him, I'm going to find him"
She looked like a madman, lifted the brocade quilt, and was about to go outside without even putting on her shoes.
Zhao Yiheng stretched out his hand and hugged her into his arms, comforting her carefully: "You calm down"
As soon as he spoke, Mu Mingshu's sharp voice interrupted: "He is your son, do you want to watch him die?" ”
