Chapter 1 Chasing
It had been raining heavily for several days, and it was late at night.
The streets were deserted, and the suburbs were so dark that not even the insects and frogs could hear a single call, and only the sound of endless rain sounded in my ears.
Li Muyuan was lying in the mud, and her body was drenched in some pain from the heavy rain.
She didn't know how many days she had been gone, and how many officers and soldiers she had escaped interrogation, but unfortunately, the continuous heavy rain made her penniless unable to escape.
Just regained a little strength, struggling to sit up.
I only felt that my body was as heavy as a thousand pounds, my head was even more burning, and I had a splitting headache.
…… I don't know how long it was, but the rain seemed to have stopped.
It was still as dark as ink in front of her, but the voice of a man speaking faintly sounded in her ears: "Eh, look at the five or six sons, there seems to be a person lying on the ground." ”
Five or six glanced at it hastily and muttered, "Who is someone, you are wrong." ”
The man approached Li Muyuan and gently kicked the waist of the person on the ground with his foot. That soft feeling, isn't it personal or what?
The one who called five or six also noticed that something was wrong, and strode in three steps and two steps.
At this glance, there was really a petite man lying on the ground, covered in mud.
Five or six were a little surprised, and turned to the man with wide eyes: "It's been raining heavily outside the city of Beijing these days, and it's late at night now, can't someone die here?" ”
The man named Four or Five slapped him with one palm, and then reached for the clay man's neck with his hand.
It's still a live one.
He hurriedly greeted five or six: "This person is still angry, you go back and report to the prince, saying that a suspicious person has been found on the outskirts of the capital, ask how to deal with it first." ”
Five or Six nodded hurriedly, and was about to turn around and go back, when he suddenly asked him suspiciously, "Then what are you doing?" ”
Four-five-one flew away with white eyes, but unfortunately it was dark, and five or six did not receive his white eyes.
"I'm watching here, you go and come back quickly, in case this person is very important, wouldn't you and I have made a great contribution?"
As soon as I heard this, it was like being beaten with chicken blood twice, and then disappeared without a trace.
Seeing that Five or Six had already walked away, he turned his head to look at the motionless clay figure on the ground.
He carefully probed his hand to the neck of the man on the ground, and then slowly pulled out a piece of jade that could be seen very transparent in the dark night.
Hehe, when I checked whether this person was dead or alive just now, I felt a thin rope, and I thought it should be a treasure.
So he split five or six, wanting to steal this piece of jade, and then pawn it to buy some wine to drink when he arrived in Beijing.
Who knew that he didn't take it out for a long time, and the person who fell to the ground suddenly reached out and grabbed his cuffs!
Four or five were suddenly startled, hurriedly stood up, and was about to kick this person away, when five or six ran over with a few people.
So fast?
The group brought by five or six knew one in four or five: the right-hand man by the prince's side.
He hurriedly hid this piece of jade, but unfortunately at this time, the eyes of five or six were very bright: "What are you doing four or five?" What good things have you hidden? ”
The few people behind five or six swept their eyes over the people on the ground, and then looked at four or five.
Four or five had to laugh embarrassedly: "Hey, hey, hey, this... This is the treasure I want to give to the prince. ”
Wang Gonggong suddenly sneered: "You don't need to hand it over to the prince, do you think the prince is so free?" I think you should return this thing to others, so as not to be known by the prince..."
Known... but they will have their hands cut off.
If a person who is on an errand beside the prince steals and robs the property of the common people, in addition to compensating the common people, whoever commits the crime must have his hands chopped up.
Four or five trembled and threw the hidden jade pieces on the ground, but who knew that the princess's eyes suddenly changed when he saw the jade.
He looked at the man on the ground again, and it was dark, and the man was covered with mud, and he could only see that he was a little petite and thin, but as for his appearance, he could not see anything at all.
The prince immediately ordered someone to carry back the people who did not know whether they were alive or dead on the ground, and then picked up the jade with his own hands and held it in his hand.
"This group of rough people, you have to be careful when carrying people!" The prince shouted all the way. The distance of less than a mile took nearly half an hour.
When they arrived at the inn not far away, the prince first ordered someone to register with the innkeeper, and then set up a bright and clean room.
He beckoned to the two little maids and said, "You wash this man carefully, put on his clothes, and bring him over if the prince has an order later." ”
The two maids responded in unison, and without looking at anything else, they began to divide the work to take care of the people on the ground.
When Li Muyuan woke up, she felt that her body was a little heavy, and the sweat on her forehead made some of her hair messy on her face.
The sky was clear, not at all as hazy as the previous days.
She had already changed into clean clothes, and even the clothes on her body had been washed and put on the screen to dry.
The breeze came in through the window and gently blew the clothes hanging there, and everything was so calm and peaceful.
Her memory was a little blurry, and her head still hurt a little. She only remembered falling to the ground, and Li Muyuan thought that maybe she should die like this in her life.
I don't know how long it took, Li Muyuan heard the sound of someone talking in a trance, and she only heard something like reporting to the prince, and it didn't take long for her to faint again.
In the dream, she saw her father walking in the room with the note in his hand in his hand, and when she saw her coming, she hurriedly explained to her happily: "Grandma, long live the disease!" The recipe that the concubine gave to the old man will definitely make Long Live healthy as ever! ”
She suddenly snatched Fang Zi in her dream, but who knew that she didn't have the slightest strength, her father's face changed greatly, and then her face suddenly became distorted, and there were raging flames around her.
"Honglu Temple Cheng Li Kezhuo was involved in poisoning and killing the emperor, and the three clans are hereby planted!" The eunuch of the rice paper sneered.
Li Muyuan's eyes overflowed with tears, but she couldn't see the eunuch's face clearly.
She desperately rushed to her relatives, but her personal maid Zhaoyue stood in front of her, wearing exactly the same clothes as herself, and threw herself into the fire with tears......
She wakes up from a nightmare, only to find that she is no longer in the mud.
It was as if everything she had been through before had been a nightmare.
The door suddenly "babbled", and the palace maid saw that the person on the bed was already awake, and after a short period of stunned, she did not say a word.
He just stepped forward and brought a bowl of black medicine and motioned for her to drink it.
Li Muyuan was still a little hesitant, but after thinking about the current situation, she sat up with some difficulty and took the medicine bowl.
The bitter taste of the medicine spread to the tip of the tongue, making the originally chaotic brain gradually begin to wake up.
After drinking the bowl of medicine, the woman thoughtfully brought another cup of hot water to dilute the bitterness on the tip of her tongue.
After a while, she asked the woman who was still sorting out the tea set: "The prince of your family... May I ask who is the prince? ”
The woman replied in a somewhat immature voice: "Back girl, it's King Fugong." ”
She shuddered.
King Fu Gong. He is the only prince of Concubine Zheng.
She tried to clench her fists, but found that her body was still very weak.
King Fugong's mother, Zheng Guifei, was the direct murderer of her family's tragic annihilation.
