CHAPTER XVI

Ling Yuxin was taken aback by Bai Zhu's actions, and hurriedly reached out to help her, "Oh, what are you doing here, I didn't say I wanted to drive you away, I just think that you have been wronged by letting you be a maid," Seeing that Bai Zhu was still bowing to herself, she had to say helplessly: "Oh, okay, okay, you don't want to be like this, you just don't say anything to me, we're still the same as before, you get up quickly, okay?" ”

Bai Zhu was willing to get up, "Thank you, Miss." ”

Ling Yuxin sighed helplessly.

Bai Zhu hurriedly pointed to the water and eating esophagus beside him: "Miss, you will wash up briefly first, eat something, and the slave will tell them that you have woken up." Then he turned and got out of the carriage.

Ling Yuxin lifted the curtain on one side and probed outside the car, and saw Xiao Yurui, Li Qingshan and Wei Chifeng sitting not far away, as if discussing something, Bai Zhu walked quickly to them with his back to the carriage and stopped for a moment, the three of them got up one after another and walked towards the carriage with Bai Zhu, and almost at the same time saw Ling Yuxin outside the car.

When they met Xiao Yurui's eyes, Ling Yuxin couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth, Li Qingshan and Wei Chifeng were both slightly stunned, and they had the same feeling when they first saw her sweet smile the day before, Xiao Yurui sped up his pace, his eyes were full of pity.

"Xin'er, are you awake? Did you sleep well last night? Before Xiao Yurui arrived in front of the car, he asked with a smile.

"Hmm." Ling Yuxin smiled sweetly and nodded.

"Since Miss Ling has woken up, then we might as well set off early, we should have been able to arrive in the capital yesterday to return to the palace, although I have ordered someone to return to Beijing to report first, but the emperor must be worried about Miss Ling at this moment, I'm afraid that we have been waiting for a long time, let's go back to the palace early." Li Qingshan hurriedly returned to the palace to resume his life, and without waiting for the two brothers and sisters to continue, he spoke first.

Xiao Yurui frowned almost invisibly and looked at Ling Yuxin, "Xin'er, the emperor is waiting to see you in the palace, if you are fine, then we are ready to go, and we will send you into the palace first after returning to the capital." ”

Ling Yuxin was a little surprised, "Enter the palace?" ”

"Well, I'll send you into the palace to see the emperor first." Xiao Yurui nodded.

Ling Yuxin always thought that they were going to send her home, but she didn't expect that she was going to be sent directly to the palace to see the emperor, and she suddenly panicked in her heart, and then thought that it was because this emperor wanted to use her to promote a political marriage, so that she was framed by others, so that she was grounded for two years, and now she is being chased and killed by assassins, so she felt a little more disgusted and annoyed with this emperor in her heart, so she glanced at Li Qingshan, and then said to Xiao Yurui: "Cousin, I want to go home, I don't want to go anywhere else." ”

The corners of Li Qingshan's and Wei Chifeng's mouths twitched at the same time.

Xiao Yurui's expression on his face did not change, only a trace of satisfaction flashed in his eyes, and after being silent for a moment, he turned to look at Li Qingshan, "Commander Li, since Xin'er wants to go home first, then let's send her back to Ling Mansion first." ”

Li Qingshan's face was embarrassed, "But, the emperor ......"

Xiao Yurui interrupted him without hesitation, "Commander Li, Xin'er first accidentally lost her memory, and was attacked by assassins on the road yesterday, it is inevitable that she will be terrified, now whether it is the palace or the emperor, it is completely unfamiliar to her, Commander Li only needs to tell the emperor everything according to the truth, I believe the emperor will be able to understand, not to mention, with Xin'er's current situation, even if she sees the emperor, she may not be able to recognize it, I am afraid that the emperor will inevitably be sad, if Xin'er has any rudeness, it will make it more difficult for the emperor." ”

"This ......" Li Qingshan obviously agreed with Xiao Yurui's words, but he was still a little hesitant.

"Commander Li doesn't have to be embarrassed, you can tell the emperor everything first, as for sending Xin'er home first, you just need to say that you insist on it, if the emperor blames, you will bear it with all your might."

"Xiao Gongzi misunderstood, Li is not afraid of responsibility, but the emperor's order is difficult to disobey......"

Wei Chifeng persuaded in a timely manner: "Commander Li, since it is Miss Ling's own will, and Xiao Gongzi said so again, we might as well send Miss Ling back to the house first, the emperor is there, Wei and you will go to restore your life together, I believe that the emperor will be considerate of Miss Ling and Xiao Gongzi." ”

Li Qingshan saw that Wei Chifeng said this, so it was difficult to insist any longer, "Okay, then follow what Gongzi said." ”

Xiao Yurui bowed slightly to the two, "Thank you." ”

After the two of them hugged their fists and saluted in return, they each went to rectify their subordinates and prepared to set off.

Xiao Yurui looked back, and after Ling Yuxin smiled sweetly at her, she retracted into the carriage.

After yesterday's assassination, Li Qingshan was doubly vigilant on the road today, but he didn't know that this road was calm, and seeing that he was about to arrive in the capital, he couldn't help but wonder in his heart, he would never have thought that the people secretly arranged by Xiao Yurui had already cleared up the rest of the people waiting to ambush them in advance.

Because except for Xiao Yurui, the rest of the people are all dressed as officers and soldiers, so along the way, the people all see it and avoid the way, and the general guarding the door recognized Li Qingshan at a glance, Li Qingshan showed the imperial token as soon as he arrived at the city gate, and the general guarding the gate did not dare to slack off to obstruct it, and the group entered the city unhindered and mighty.

Ling Yuxin this road is still full of interest to enjoy the scenery along the way, as the capital is getting closer and closer, the pedestrians gradually increase, the road is more and more wide, after entering the city gate, she can't help but be amazed by the prosperous scene of the capital, the street is lined with all kinds of shops, people come and go on the street, and from time to time there are all kinds of shouting and frolicking in the ears, so lively.

Ling Yuxin had never seen such a scene since she woke up from amnesia, only to feel that everything in front of her was so fresh, and her face was full of irrepressible excitement.

Xiao Yurui's brows have not been stretched since he entered the city, although it can be seen that pedestrians are trying to avoid it, but there are still many people who are good things have stopped and looked at Ling Yuxin who has been probing outside the car with an inquiring eye, and many of them are pointing and whispering.

Xiao Yurui wanted to speak out several times and asked Ling Yuxin to return to the car, but every time he saw her excited expression, he couldn't bear to spoil her interest after all, but the tangled color at the bottom of his eyes became more and more intense.

The group walked through the streets and alleys of the city, turned seven or eight times, and finally stopped in front of a large mansion.

Ling Yuxin stepped out of the carriage with the support of Bai Zhu, and the two closed black lacquer gates and the stone lions on both sides appeared in front of her.

Ling Yuxin was in a trance for a moment, as if she felt that the scene in front of her had a familiar sense of strangeness, and at this time, Xiao Yurui's warm voice came into her ears, "I'm home." ”

Ling Yuxin trembled slightly, and her heart was a little dazed: Home! Is this her home?!

Li Qingshan waved his hand, and a guard walked forward quickly and knocked on the closed door.

After a while, the door squeaked and opened a crack, and a middle-aged man about forty or fifty years old poked his head out, and when he saw the guard in front of him, he opened his mouth and just wanted to ask, and glanced at the people behind him, and then he was stunned, and looked at Ling Yuxin with wide eyes, and after a moment, a look of excitement appeared on his face, and he shouted, "Miss!" After that, he stepped forward in three steps and two steps, and after walking in front of Ling Yuxin, he looked her up and down, and said excitedly again: "Miss is really you, it's really you back!" Great, you're finally back, I've been looking forward to it since yesterday, I didn't sleep all night worried last night, but luckily you're back safe and sound, great, great......"

Ling Yuxin looked at the stranger in front of her in surprise and blankly, seeing that he was excited and happy because of herself, but she didn't know how to respond, she just stared at him stunned.

Xiao Yurui saw Ling Yuxin's uneasiness and embarrassment, and interrupted the middle-aged man in time, "Uncle Quan, let's go in and talk about it." ”

"Oh, yes, yes, look at my brain, fortunately, the young master reminded me in time, let's go, miss, come in quickly, I'll go and inform the master first." Uncle Quan said and turned around and walked quickly towards the door.

Li Qingshan said to Xiao Yurui: "Young Master Xiao, we still have to rush to the emperor, since we have arrived at the Ling Mansion, then we will leave." After speaking, he and Wei Chifeng raised their hands and clenched their fists at the same time.

Xiao Yurui also immediately returned the salute with a fist hug to the two, "There is labor!" ”

After seeing Li Qingshan and Wei Chifeng turn over and lead the guards to leave, Xiao Yurui led Ling Yuxin and Bai Zhu into the mansion.
