Chapter 552: Ambush (enigmayanxi+)
She also tentatively asked the old princess when she could send Mama Shen away, but the old princess insisted on letting Mama Shen stay until she left the cabinet. She couldn't bear it anymore, and if she let a vicious grandma like Mama Shen be by her side, she was afraid that she would give herself the result if she couldn't think about it one day.
Regarding Yao Yuerong's words, the county lord of Huilan only smiled and did not agree. In her mind, this cousin is very easy to fool, and she is the helper she uses to help her current predicament. Get on her boat and still want to escape? That's really whimsical. Huilan had already made up her mind to entrap Yao Yuerong and let her do things for herself. Although her situation is better now than before, there is still some distance from true freedom.
"Okay, it's not too early, I don't know if the carriage outside is ready." The county lord of Huilan personally put on the earrings in his hand for Yao Yuerong and asked casually.
At this time, a mother-in-law came in and saluted: "It turns out that the county lord is also here, and the young lady has sent someone to your yard." The young lady said that the carriage was ready, and asked the slave maid to come over and ask the county lord and Miss Yao when they could go out. ”
Huilan is the master, and Yao Yuerong is the guest, so the county lord of Huilan is the master: "It's all ready, let's go out." ”
The woman hurriedly retired first, and went down to command.
The two came to the second gate to get on the car, and Yao Yuerong looked at the people around the carriage. After getting into the car, he seemed to say casually: "The people who came out today seem to be a little different from yesterday, and the faces of those entourages outside are different." ”
Hui Lan tugged at the corners of her mouth: "Naturally it's different, didn't you hear people say yesterday that they weren't from our Zhuangwang Mansion?" Today I went out, and it was naturally the entourage of Zhuang Wangfu. Other people's retinue, how can I command the movement of a little county lord. ”
"County Lord, please be careful." Mama Shen said with a straight face.
Huilan was a little different today, and instead smiled at Mama Shen when she heard this, but her smile was a little cold, which made Mama Shen frown and feel that something was wrong.
The county lord of Whelan did not reply. He only lowered his head and held the teacup, looking at the white mist rising from the cup, and his eyes were gray and uncertain.
Yao Yuerong glanced at Mama Shen and said with a smile: "Mama is too strict." There are no outsiders here, and my cousin is just gossiping with me. ”
Mama Shen was not good at preaching to Yao Yuerong, so she bowed her head and said nothing.
Yao Yuerong smiled and said to the county lord of Huilan: "I just looked at the entourage sent by the eldest cousin to protect the eldest cousin yesterday as if their kung fu was excellent, and I was a little curious." It's rare to see this kind of entourage on weekdays, and it looks like it's more powerful than the guards of Prince Li's mansion. I thought that the ladies in the house would follow them when they went out. ”
The county lord of Huilan said casually: "He treasures that woman's baby, so he naturally has to send someone to watch it carefully." As for others. Where is there so many manpower. It's just a four-grade Jingwei commander. ”
Seeing that Huilan knew less than her, Yao Yuerong smiled, drank tea with a teacup, and didn't inquire anymore.
After a while, the carriage slowly stopped. Mama Shen frowned and was about to go out to see what was going on. The coachman outside said, "County Lord, the road ahead is blocked by a large cart piled with goods. The guards were trying to move the cart out of the way. Please wait a moment. ”
The corners of the county lord's mouth rose without a trace, and he responded: "Got it." ”
After a while, there was some arguing outside. It seems that the owner of the cart has returned, and is dissatisfied with the palace guards for moving his cart without permission.
If this is the case before. The county lord of Whelan will definitely command people to drive away the whips that stand in the way, but today he is extremely patient, and he is not dissatisfied at all.
After a few more moments, the commotion outside finally subsided. The carriage walked slowly again.
For most of the group, this is just a small episode on the road. No one cares.
The county lord of Huilan and Yao Yuerong's carriage entered Prince Li's mansion, and Princess Li was very happy to see Yao Yuerong. Yao Yuerong and the county lord of Huilan also accompanied Prince Li and Princess Li for a long time. In the end, Prince Li and Princess Li left two more people for dinner.
So when the county lord of Huilan and Yao Yuerong returned home, it was already late.
When the county lord of Huilan came out, he looked at the dim sky, and then at Ju'er, the former personal maid who was standing a little far away from him, and Ju'er nodded towards Huilan without a trace. The county lord of Whelan hooked his lips and smiled.
When I got to the second gate, I got into the carriage, and the carriage slowly walked out of the gate of the palace. But it's not far away. The county lord of Whelan fell down with his stomach in his arms.
Yao Yuerong and Mama Shen were shocked, and Mama Shen hurriedly stepped forward to investigate: "County Lord, what's wrong with you?" ”
"My stomach hurts." The county lord of Whelan collapsed on the thick mattress of the carriage. It was already a little dark, there were two windproof lamps hanging in the carriage, and the expression on the face of the county lord of Whelan was very painful.
"How's that for good? Why don't we go back to Prince Li's Mansion and let the princess find a doctor to take a look? Yao Yuerong looked worried.
The Lord Ninja of Huilan County said bitterly: "I'm afraid I'll disturb the princess if I go back again." I should have been greedy at dinner tonight, and I saw that there were two more crabs at this time. I remember that my old maid Ju'er always brought some Po Chai pills with her, so Mama went to fetch them for me. ”
Yao Yuerong looked at Mama Shen.
Mama Shen saw that the county lord of Huilan seemed to be in a very bad pain, and there was no one else here to serve her, so she nodded: "The slave maid will go down to get medicine for the county lord." With that, he called outside to stop.
The carriage came to a slow halt and came to a halt.
Although it is still an imperial city, this section of the road is a little dark. Mama Shen walked to the last carriage, and as soon as she lifted the curtain and got into the car, she was attacked from behind and fell to the ground.
The carriage that was at the front seemed to have given an order, and the carriage began to move again.
In the end, the carriage didn't keep up when it came around the corner. The retinue sent by the palace was all protected by the carriage of the first master, and no one paid attention to the last carriage in the dark.
Mama Shen had not completely lost her mind, and she had some difficulty opening her eyes to see the person who attacked her, but she saw a man facing her with his back to the light. The few maids sitting against the wall of the carriage had already lost consciousness and seemed to have fainted.
Mama Shen opened her mouth, but she couldn't make a sound, and in the end, she couldn't resist the feeling of dizziness and lost consciousness.
The man looked at Mama Shen coldly, reached out and put her on his shoulder, and jumped out of the carriage. Quickly run into the shadows. The people who wanted to rush ahead took Mama Shen to another secret place before they found out, and disposed of it secretly, so that she could not see the body when she died.
Just didn't want to, so he ran into the back alley of a mansion. The way was blocked by a man. The man was startled, and carefully carried the person back, and another person appeared behind him. The front and back roads were blocked, and the man finally realized that something was wrong. He cautiously asked, "Who are you?" ”
The two men who stood in the way did not speak, and both attacked at the same time. The man found out that the two were dressed in black and covered their faces. He was taken aback, and threw the man he was carrying on his shoulder to the man in black in front of him. He pulled out a dagger from his sleeve.
The man in black in front caught the man who threw him at him, and the man took the opportunity to attack, not wanting to be pulled back by a force without even touching the corner of the person's clothes. Then he felt a sharp pain in his right wrist, the dagger fell to the ground, and then his left hand also broke with a "click". He couldn't help but scream, and the man in black in front of him raised his foot and kicked him in the abdomen, and he was kicked against the wall of the alley, and then smashed to the ground. The pain in his wrist and the tumbling of the river in his abdomen made him faint with his eyes.
The man in black behind shook his head and kicked the person on the ground: "I thought it was such a powerful thing, but I didn't want to be so unbeaten." ”
The man in front: "If you look at his hobbies, you should know that he is a strong outsider." What's so strange about not being able to stand two feet. Don't delay, gesture to the person, go back to your life. ”
The man in black behind nodded, and still very cautiously slashed his palm on his neck before carrying the person up. Two men in black carried a man on their shoulders and disappeared into the night.
In King Zhuang's mansion, Sanniang waited for Xuan Shao to come back and serve him for dinner.
Xuan Shao looked at another Gu tonic today, glanced at Sanniang with an inexplicable look, and ate it without saying a word.
Sanniang didn't think much about it. When I saw Xuan Shao, I was stunned at first, and then I reacted, gritted my teeth and said: "It's just that I saw that you were doing things hard, so I thought I wanted you to make up for it!" What a mess you think! ”
Xuan Shao put down the bowl slowly, looked at Sanniang and smiled gently: "I don't want to be crooked for my husband." It's very fortunate to do things, and the lady has a heart. ”
Sanniang glared at Xuan Shao and was silent.
Xuan Shao saw Li Sanniang's appearance, and was about to coax her to the study, but he didn't want Bai Lan to say outside: "Young master, young lady, the slave maid has to be repaid." ”
Sanniang then remembered that she had sent someone out to show her Huilan and Yao Yuerong today. Hearing this, he knew that something must have happened, so he hurriedly got up and let Bai Lan in, and told the maid to come in and clean up the table. Let Bai Lan talk to her in the study.
After that, Xuan Shao also came over, and Bai Lan had already reported to Sanniang what had just happened outside.
Sanniang frowned: "She's ruthless." ”
Xuan Shao raised his eyebrows: "Who are you talking about?" ”
Before Bai Lan and Sanniang could talk, a steward from outside hurriedly came in and asked to see him, saying that something had happened to the county lord and Miss Yao. There were originally eight wagons out today, but only seven came back. When I arrived at the gate of King Zhuang's mansion, I found that something was wrong, and the county lord had already sent someone back to look for it, but in the end I found that the carriage was parked on the side of the road. The coachman was gone, and several of the maids inside passed out in the carriage, but Mama Shen was gone.
Sanniang was not surprised when she heard this, and ordered someone to go out of the house to find someone, and explained a few words to the steward. Over there, Bai Lan had already told Xuan Shao about today's events concisely.
Xuan Shao's face was slightly cold when he heard this, he thought about it, looked up and said to Sanniang, "What do you want?" ”
Sanniang said to Bai Lan: "I'll go over with Xianggong to take a look, and you let them pay attention so as not to let people find out." In addition, go and ask a doctor for Mama to see, don't really hurt anything. ”
Sanniang ordered early in the morning, if something happened, deal with it secretly first, and don't alarm the people in King Zhuang's mansion. Therefore, even if Xuan Shao's people saved Mama Shen, they did not do it, but came back to report the news.
"Xianggong, you accompany me to see how Mama Shen is." Sanniang pulled Xuan Shao and said.
Xuan Shao nodded, personally went to get Sanniang's mink cloak, and wrapped her tightly. led her out.
They didn't let the maids follow, because Xuanshao was there, so no one had any objections. I thought that the husband and wife had gone away after eating.
Xuan Shao led Sanniang out of the back door, and ordered someone to lead his horse over early in the morning.
Helping Sanniang to sit on the horse's back, Xuan Shao himself jumped up, holding Sanniang's waist with one hand to protect her tightly in front of his chest, and grabbed the reins with the other hand, letting the horse trot.
Xuan Shao's people placed Mama Shen in a small courtyard not very far from the palace. It's like a stronghold or resting place for the Eagle Guard on weekdays, and it's not very conspicuous.
Xuan Shao got off the horse with Sanniang in his arms, and Sanniang felt dizzy. In her previous life, she was very envious of her cousins and cousins going to the horse farm, she herself was not in good health and could not exercise vigorously, so she could not ride a horse, and she was very sorry for it. In this life, because she was a boudoir woman in ancient times, there was no way to ride a horse, after all, there were very few people in this world who wanted to be as unscrupulous as the county lord of Hui'an. Originally, she thought she wanted to try it anyway.
But just now because of eating, there was a bump, and she sat sideways, which made her very uncomfortable.
