Chapter 402 - Complex Form
Without saying a word, Nangong Qing didn't know what to say.
He understood what Nalan Ye meant, and wanted him to be the emperor of Western Chu, so that he would save a lot of trouble. But Nangong Qing hesitated, he didn't even dare to think about it, if he really forced the palace to let his father abdicate, wouldn't he also become an unworthy descendant? This kind of crime, he may be burdened for a lifetime, even if he sits in that position, he will be scolded by Youyou for thousands of years.
is very embarrassed, Nangong Qing knows that Nalan Ye is good for him, but because of his hesitation and indecision, it has caused Nalan Ye's current situation. If Nalan Ye really can't live, he will even affect his best friends, and he will be at peace for the rest of his life.
What to do?
With a long sigh, Nalan Ye exited the room and walked out of the room with a gloomy face.
If Miss Luo is there...... Maybe it's a lot better, right? She's so smart, there's going to be a way to solve it. And she is excellent in art, as long as she is there, Nalan Ye will definitely be fine.
At this moment, a guard in front of him hurriedly came, knelt down in front of Nangong Qing, and presented an object: "His Royal Highness the Prince, at this time, the urgent information sent by the second prince." ”
When Nangong Qing heard this, he suddenly came to his senses. He naturally knew that his second brother Nangong Yu had gone to Dongwan, and some time ago he also sent back the news that he had found Princess Chu and would bring her back soon. If that's the case, that's definitely good news.
This time I wrote again, could it be that the second brother has already come back with Luo Qingluan? That's great!
Hurriedly unfolded the letter, Nangong Qing looked at it, but his face changed greatly.
"Actually ......" hands were trembling, Nangong Qing was like a thunderbolt in the sky, I didn't expect such a thing to happen.
I thought that Nangong Yu had come back with Luo Qingluan, but it turned out to be ......
On the letter, Nangong Yu said that he had originally persuaded Luo Qingluan to come back with him, and he had been waiting, but he didn't expect that after a few days, Luo Qingluan suddenly said goodbye, and he didn't know about it at all. If it weren't for Jiang Yunhai, the young owner of Baiwei Study, Nangong Yu would not have known that Luo Qingluan had been gone for two days.
No way, since Luo Qingluan has returned to Xichu, although he did not go with him, at least Nangong Yu still achieved his goal. He was about to pack up everything and rush back, but he had just taken care of his business when he heard the news.
The team escorting Luo Qingluan from the Prince's Mansion encountered bandits at the junction of Dongwan and North Vietnam, and all but a few soldiers who had escaped were killed.
Nangong Yu was like being struck by lightning, and everyone died, so doesn't that mean that Luo Qingluan is also dead?
I can't imagine the consequences, Nangong Yu has no master, and he doesn't have time to confirm the specific situation, because this incident made Emperor Dongwan very angry, and the entire Dongwan capital city spread. Therefore, Nangong Yu wrote a letter directly, and sent it back to the post station in an urgent manner for 800 miles, telling Nangong Qing to prepare early.
But what exactly should be prepared, Nangong Qing was also shocked after reading the letter.
Standing in place for a long time and not moving, Nangong Qing was like a mud tire and wood plastic, stiff, and it took a little bit of tea to come back to his senses. After calming down a little, he immediately decided on one thing: he must not let Nalan Ye know.
How long can you hide it!
Otherwise, Nalan Ye was afraid that he would go to his father for revenge regardless of his body, and the consequences would be unimaginable.
Fortunately...... Thinking of this, Nangong Qing felt unprecedentedly glad that Nalan was injured at night. Now Nalan is recuperating in his second brother's hot spring villa at night, and he has not taken over external affairs for the time being, and the soldiers under his command also understand that they are worried one by one, and they will not disturb him at this time. As long as Nangong Qing doesn't say it himself, the news of Luo Qingluan's murder will basically not reach Nalan Ye's ears.
Glancing sideways at the silent hall, Nangong Qing turned around and left.
He's going to send someone to investigate and find out what's going on. When he encountered bandits, he never knew that there would be bandits at the junction of North Vietnam and Dongwan, and even if there were, were the more than 300 guards escorted along the way dead? It is absolutely impossible for someone who can kill so many guards to be a bandit!
"Pass my order, immediately send someone to ......" Out of Zhuangzi, Nangong Qingcai ordered his henchmen in a deep voice.
……
Luo Qingluan, who had just entered the territory of the Western Chu Kingdom, had no idea that there were such rumors.
Although she didn't travel by land, the people she sent were all good at the Night Hall, and she knew what she should do. When the cargo ship entered the tributary of the Cangnan River along the main road of the Cangnan River and entered the territory of Xichu along the water, Luo Qingluan finally received the news of that day.
Standing on the deck, Luo Qingluan was dressed in a green cloth skirt and a headscarf on her head, dressed like a fisherwoman. The long hair was completely coiled, and there was only a pair of pearl studs the size of a grain of rice on the earlobe, and the slender neck was like a swan. The cool river breeze was blowing, and the weather wasn't so hot anymore.
There had just been a shower, the air seemed exceptionally fresh, and the dull air was swept away, Luo Qingluan took the dark harrier book he had just received, and stood on the deck while breathing while reading.
It was not unexpected, just as she guessed, sure enough, Han Xun sent someone to attack the carriage that was supposed to be her car. Although he felt sorry for the dead Dongwan soldiers, it was Han Xun who Luo Qingluan hated even more.
If it weren't for him, how could so many people have died? Again and again, Han Xun's various practices have made her feel extremely disgusted and disdainful. Many of the brothers of the Dark Night Hall also died in this sneak attack, and together with the more than 300 Dongwan soldiers, Han Xun caused such a tragic killing for ulterior purposes.
Luo Qingluan secretly tightened her teeth, if she had the opportunity, she would definitely not let Han Xun go.
"Princess, is there anything wrong?" Beside her, Xu Lian asked softly.
After leaving the territory of Dongwan, without worrying about the disclosure of their identity, everyone has resumed their title of Luo Qingluan.
I didn't want to say anything when I was sad, Luo Qingluan directly took the note to Xu Lian, and after she read it, her face sank: "Emperor Beiyue, it's just crazy, bold, even Dongwan's people dare to kill, isn't he afraid that Emperor Dongwan will also declare war on him?" ”
"He's crazy, for this kind of person, he just wants to achieve his own goals, where does he care what he should and shouldn't do?" Luo Qingluan looked disgusted.
"Princess, don't be sad, when you go back, the prince will definitely avenge his brothers."
As soon as Xu Lian's words were spoken, she realized that Nalan Ye was also seriously injured now, and her princess rushed back to save the emergency. As soon as she thought of this, her angry silver teeth clenched, and she couldn't wait to rush directly to North Vietnam and kill Han Xun.
Nalan Ye...... "You'll be fine, Luo Qingluan thought silently in his heart.
It's been four days, and it's just entered the territory of Western Chu, and this is still due to the shortcut, and the waterway is at least one-third shorter than the land route. The previous trip when Luo Qingluan and Xiao Yuqi fled back to Dongwan took more than ten days.
Calculating the time, it would take them three days to reach the capital of Xichu at the earliest, and she was not sure where Nalan Ye was now. They had to figure it out as soon as possible, but now that they were on the waterway, they were afraid that the only way was to go ashore before they could make inquiries.
"Mr. Liu, how long will it take for us to go ashore?" Although he was anxious, Luo Qingluan remained silent. Now that Nalan is injured and her condition is unknown, she must be even more calm and not let her panic infect others.
Hearing Luo Qingluan's words, Liu Donghai recalled a moment and said, "Back to the princess, according to our current speed, there will be about two hours to reach Ningshui Wharf." According to the predetermined route, we will continue to take the waterway, but if the princess wants to change the land route, the landing from Ningshui Wharf is Jiangbei County, which is only four hours away from the capital by water. ”
After a little hesitation, Luo Qingluan decided: "Okay, we will go ashore from Ningshui Wharf, and we will return to the capital from Jiangbei County." ”
According to the map of Western Chu, Jiangbei County is located in the east of the capital, and Changshu County is separated by it, but Luo Qingluan has been doing waterways for several days, not only is he more and more irritable, but he is also helpless because he can't inquire about the news.
The dark harrier that she received just now was also left by Chen Dong in advance, after all, the dark harrier is a bird, and if there is no special keeper and a specific location, no matter how smart the dark harrier is, it will not be able to transmit information. Now they are on the road, and they can't use the dark harrier to convey information.
It is necessary to find a place where there is a dark night hall in order to better understand the current situation.
Another four days have passed, and Luo Qingluan is really worried about Nalan Night. But she couldn't help herself, so she could only pray to herself that he was safe.
"Nalan Ye, you must wait for me. As long as I come back, I won't go anywhere in the future, and I will die with you......" Facing the endless river, Luo Qingluan clasped his hands together, closed his eyes and meditated silently, his delicate face was full of piety.
……
"Did you find anything?" In the prince's mansion, Nangong Qing looked at the henchmen sent out, very anxious.
The henchman reported: "Back to the prince, his subordinates have already inquired that it was indeed the Beiyue Emperor who sent people to attack the team of the princess of Chu returning to China, and the three hundred Dongwan soldiers were almost wiped out, and only a few fled back. Emperor Dongwan was furious and had already sent an envoy to Beiyue to question the Emperor of Beiyue, but the result was still unknown. ”
His heart was even tighter, Nangong Qing only felt that his throat was dry, and he was almost speechless, and it took a long time to say a few words in a trembling voice: "That...... Princess Nachu ......"
The henchman shook his head: "The Emperor of Beiyue clearly went to the princess of Chu, so he sent thousands of people, although his subordinates did not see the body of the princess of Chu with their own eyes, but they wanted to come...... The princess of Chu should have died, and her body had also been taken away by the Beiyue Emperor. ”
"What......" Nangong Qing's hands suddenly tightened, and the negative hand that left the mahogany chair was immediately pinched off on the spot. He muttered in disbelief, "Dead, really dead?" How could it be ......"
Suddenly, the henchman suddenly turned his head and looked in a certain direction: "Who is it!" ”
Nangong Qing suddenly reacted: "Someone? Someone ...... coming."
Before the words were finished, I only heard the sound of clothes, and when my henchmen quickly rushed to the window and opened it, I saw a figure rushing to the sky, stepping on the beam of the house and going away, unable to catch up at all.
"Oh no, I've been heard." Nangong Qing suddenly felt bad.
This eavesdropper, no matter which side it is, is afraid that the already complicated things will become more complicated.
