Chapter 10: Return
[There is a post in the book review area, which explains a lot of things carefully, go and take a look, don't give me a bad review if you can't see clearly.] 】
After leaving the palace, before getting into the carriage, Ning Zhi stood still: "Your Highness has something on your heart, you don't need to send Ning Zhi, I brought the guards." ”
"No need, it's not in a hurry." Pei Heng looked at Ning Zhi and said in her heart that she knew that something was wrong with him?
"Then there is His Highness Lao." As she spoke, Ning Zhi stretched out her hand, looking like she wanted Pei Heng to help her into the carriage.
Pei Heng frowned, he didn't do anything.
Helping Ning Zhi into the carriage, Pei Heng only felt that this woman was a little thin.
After Ning Zhi thanked him, he lowered the curtain of the carriage.
Pei Heng got on the horse and walked in front.
At this time, there are a lot of people who want to leave at the gate of the palace, but they are all divided into three, six, nine and so on, at least there is no one here to stop His Royal Highness.
The Xuanyi guards are all here, and every carriage has been checked, for fear that the assassins are hiding.
It was not far from the palace gate to Ning's house, and soon the carriage arrived.
Ning Zhi was helped down by Forsythia, and looked at Pei Heng, who was still sitting on the horse: "Don't delay Your Highness, but Your Highness should be careful and don't get hurt." ”
"You know that the main hall is going to catch the assassins?" Pei Heng looked at her.
"Naturally, I know, Your Highness, Ning Zhi will go back first." Ning Zhi said with a smile.
Pei Heng smmed, slightly uncomfortable.
After watching Ning Zhi enter the mansion gate, he pulled the reins and left with his guards.
Pei Heng, who left Ningzhi, had a frosty face.
His father had seen many assassinations, but not many dared to enter the palace to assassinate. At least for the first time in Pei Heng's seventeen years of life.
Therefore, he must be more angry than anyone else.
Fang just pressed it, thinking that Ning Zhi was a little girl after all, so she wouldn't scare her.
At this moment, he was only bent on finding the bad luck of the Assassins.
After entering his own mansion, Ning Zhi left all those things behind.
What about other flying blades, she was tired from the day, and it was time to rest. Otherwise, it really won't grow tall.
"Girl, Ming'er won't go to the Prince's Mansion, right?" Bai Zhi waited for Ning Zhi to lie down and asked.
"Ming'er again, let's go." Ning Zhi yawned and closed her eyes.
Bai Zhi sighed and didn't worry, anyway, if the girl wanted to see herself, if she didn't wake up, she wouldn't go.
On the other side, Pei Heng rode his horse to find the commander of the Xuanyi Guard, but there was no trace of the assassin.
"Your Highness is angry, and it is not good for the ministers to do things." Liang Chuhan bowed his head.
"Hmph, what's the use of asking you?" Pei Heng didn't get off the horse again, and after glancing at Xuanyiwei angrily, he rode his horse to the Criminal Department.
After all, I still caught a live mouth.
Pei Heng took the guards to the Criminal Department, and as soon as he entered, he saw that Shangshu of the Criminal Department was about to go out with a white face.
"Ouch, Second Highness......" Shangshu of the Criminal Department was also frightened when he saw this.
"What are you running? What about the Assassins? "Pei Heng has been unsatisfactory today, and he is about to die, this time he will see the virtue of the criminal department, where is there still good spirit, and it is extremely polite to speak.
"This ...... This ......" The Shangshu of the Criminal Department was really afraid, and he still had to say: "That assassin died of poison!" ”
These assassins had already taken poison before entering the palace, and they must have become benevolent if they were unsuccessful. If the assassination is successful, it will naturally be able to detoxify.
If you fail, you will die before you are interrogated.
Pei Heng kicked the forty-year-old Shangshu away, and regardless of the cry behind him, he went inside.
The prison of the Ministry of Punishment is dark and damp, especially at night, even if it is lit by torches, it is also eerie and terrifying.
Shangshu of the Criminal Department, who had been kicked, didn't dare not come in, and he still came in after Pei Heng.
Pei Heng looked at the assassin who had died on the torture rack with a dark face, his upper body was naked, and there were only a few whip marks, that is, he had already been poisoned before he began to be tortured.
"Damn it!" Pei Heng kicked over the stool, and a gust of wind seemed to get out of the criminal department.
So he rode his horse to the prince's mansion.
Naturally, he didn't catch the Assassin that night.
There was nothing to say all night, and early the next morning, Ning Zhi got up, and Ning Yun came over.
"So early?" Ning Zhi yawned, just changed her clothes, and didn't even comb her hair.
"The assassin who was caught yesterday died in the torture department, saying that he had taken poison beforehand. Now that martial law is all outside, Liang Chuhan led people to search everywhere. Passing chariots and horses must be searched. Ning Yun was very disdainful when he talked about Liang Chuhan.
This Liang Chuhan is also a character, born in a poor family, but in seven or eight years, he has become the commander of Xuanyi Guard from a martial artist.
This is a close minister of the Son of Heaven, and he is quite liked by Emperor Jianwen.
However, this is not a reason for Ning Yun's disdain. The real reason is Ning Zhi's eighth sister, Ning Ling is Liang Chuhan's fiancée.
This is also the only daughter of the Ning family who has been treated slowly by her fiancé.
At the beginning of the year, Ning Zeli was about to withdraw from the marriage, but Ning Ling liked Liang Chuhan, so he refused to give up.
So I was married for three years, and I didn't get married.
Liang Chuhan thinks he is a loyal minister, so he looks down on the Ning family very much, and he has been dragging the marriage and refusing to ask Ning Ling to pass the door.
This is the reason why Ning Yun doesn't like him.
"He checked himself, and I'm going to the prince's mansion today. Feel free to do it. Ning Zhi didn't care much.
The Ning family also has many children and grandchildren, especially daughters.
Ning Ling couldn't see it clearly, she couldn't look down on it at all. A Liang Chuhan, what is it to her?
Ning Yun snorted, and when he had breakfast here, he went back to endorse the book.
Ning Zhi dressed up and went out to take the car to the prince's mansion.
Along the way, she saw a lot of Xuanyi guards and people from the infantry battalion checking everywhere.
However, in the end, no one dared to touch the Ning family's carriage.
In particular, this carriage is going to the prince's mansion.
In front of the prince's mansion, seeing that it was Ning Zhi coming, the doorkeeper also greeted him with a smile.
Ning Zhi didn't come much, and her relationship with the crown princess was actually average.
But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince likes this niece very much, so when the doorkeeper sees Ning Zhi, he never blackens his face.
Ning Zhi got out of the carriage and entered the mansion, and someone came to lead her to the main courtyard.
Ning Luan saw Ning Zhi and smiled slightly: "It's here." ”
"Hmm." Ning Zhi didn't ask for peace, but just sat down and asked, "How is my aunt?" Didn't sleep well last night? ”
"Get used to it. I'm not coming today. Ning Luan smiled again, but the smile was not good at all.
Although Ning Zhi's appearance is not at all like this aunt, Ning Luan was also a beauty back then.
Now...... Ning Luan, who is only in her thirties, looks like she is in her forties, not to mention her old age, but also with a mean ......
Therefore, Ning Zhi is not close to her.
"I don't know if my aunt called me, but is there something wrong?" Basically, it's okay, she really doesn't come.
Ning Luan is also used to getting along in this way: "It's not that you and Heng'er's affairs can't be turned around. As long as my father is willing to ......"
"Auntie, I don't need to turn around, I'm willing to marry." Ning Zhi interrupted Ning Luan: "What's more, I'm also very satisfied with this marriage." ”
