Chapter 124: Alhatu the Tibetan
We've been pasting portraits for several days, but it's not working.
There are quite a few people who come to the door to talk nonsense because of greed for money, but as long as those people see the long sword in Jingyun's hand, they are immediately frightened and revealed.
In the end, no one came to the door again.
Did I guess wrong? Maybe the imperial grandmother didn't come to Xianyu at all, or maybe they had already left when they saw that I wasn't there in Xianyu?
No, if they really came, according to Aunt Yingtong's temperament, even if she knew that I was not there, she would definitely find a way to leave me some clues.
But now there is no news like this, I am afraid that they really haven't come to Xianyu.
If so, where will they be?
At this time, I was in the small pavilion on the lotus pond in the garden, and I was thinking about it.
Suddenly, Taoxin's slightly annoyed voice came from outside, "Princess, look, it's been four days. ”
"What?"
I was stunned and came back to my senses, only to see Tao Xin holding a cup of soup in his hand, and he moved over.
"Didn't I ask you to send this ginseng soup to Yin Linxi's study? Why haven't you sent it yet? ”
"Don't mention it!" Taoxin put the soup on the stone table in front of me, and crossed her hands on her hips, "The princess cares about His Royal Highness the Prince, so you should go and deliver this soup yourself in the future!" ”
"What's wrong with you?" I looked at her pouting and pouting, and it was a little funny.
Seeing me smiling, Taoxin became even more annoyed, "Princess, you are still smiling, this is already the fourth day, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is closed, saying that there is a political matter to deal with, don't you doubt it, princess?" What's the big deal that needs to be dealt with for so many days? ”
Speaking of which, I remembered that in the past few days, I asked Taoxin to send ginseng soup to Yin Linxi's study, and it seems that he has been turned away, and I don't know what he is busy with.
I didn't bother to pay attention to him these days, so I just told Taoxin to cook a cup of ginseng soup every day and send it to him, and then completely threw him away.
Now I think about it
It seems like I haven't seen anyone else in a few days.
"Princess!" Tao Xin angrily removed the ginseng soup, "Did you listen to me?" ”
"You girl," I shook my head helplessly, "Yin Linxi is a prince, isn't it normal for him to have something important to do?" Let's not bother him! ”
"But"
"That's it!" I got up and looked at Jingyun, who was standing silent, "Let's go to the market and ask if there are any clues!" ”
"Yes, girl!" Jingyun nodded slightly, and followed me out of the small pavilion.
"What about me, princess?" Momoshin pointed to herself.
I turned my back to her, just smiled and shook my head.
Then he and Jingyun went to the bazaar.
It's just that today is extraordinarily rare.
The streets that were originally bustling on weekdays are very desolate for some reason today, and even if there are pedestrians on the street, they are also panicked.
Looks like something happened?
I looked at the clouds that were also full of doubts, and walked forward.
I was about to ask someone about it when I was slammed into the shoulder from behind
"Shhh I clutched my shoulder in pain.
Jing Yun drew his long sword and pointed it at the man, and said coldly, "What person! ”
In a panic, the man sat down on the ground and kept kowtowing to me, "I'm sorry! This girl is really sorry, I blame me for not having long eyes to bump into the girl, and I hope the girl will bear with me. ”
I saw that his face was pale with fright, and I couldn't bear to pursue it anymore, I just shook my head, "Forget it, just pay attention next time!" ”
"Thank you! Thank you! The man hurriedly thanked him.
Then he got up so fast that before I could even say what I wanted to ask, he disappeared around the corner of the street.
"What's going on?" I rubbed my shoulders in confusion.
In my heart, I vaguely felt that something seemed to be wrong.
At this time, Jingyun suddenly spoke up behind me, "Girl, why is there a bloody handprint behind you?" ”
"Bloody handprints?" I looked blankly at the surprised face written by the clouds, and then looked behind me, only to realize that there was a bloody handprint on the left shoulder where I had been hit.
What the hell is going on.
I thought about the time I was hit
Thinking of the unusual appearance of today's streets, for some reason, the appearance of the strange man in the palace suddenly appeared in my mind.
Is it a "witchman?"
My heart skipped a beat, and then I stared in the direction where the man who had hit me on the shoulder disappeared, and exclaimed, "There's something wrong with that person!" ”
After all, I didn't think about pulling my legs and chased after the place where the man had disappeared.
But even though I went around in circles several times, we never saw the man again.
Where did it go?
Just as I was thinking left and right, I didn't know where to go, as if something had appeared, and pointed to the ground, "Girl, look! ”
I followed her fingertips and saw a few drops of fresh blood on the dusty bluestone brick pavement.
And the bloodstain seemed to be deliberately trying to lead us somewhere, and we could see it almost every step or two.
Who is that man? Where the hell did it go?
These two questions lingered in my mind.
Even though I knew that it might be a trap set by the enemy, my footsteps involuntarily followed the bloodstains.
"Su'er!" At this time, I don't know who shouted.
I looked over, but a strong wind was blowing around me at the right time, and it was getting more and more intense.
The manic wind stirred up the sand on the ground, and the flying sand and dust were so obsessed that I couldn't open my eyes.
In addition to the sound of the wind whistling, there was also someone's voice full of laughter, "Look at this weather, it seems that a heavy rain is coming!" ”
I didn't squeak.
After the wind gradually weakened, I rubbed my eyes that were a little astringent, and saw a dark blue figure appear in the middle of the yellow sand.
"Shen Xiao? How are you? "I couldn't help but feel a little wary in my heart.
There was an evil smile on his face full of feminine beauty, "Why are you surprised to see me?" ”
I was a little stunned, "Yes, you are now Xianyu's high-ranking right minister, and you are free everywhere!" ”
Shen Xiao didn't reply to me, just stared at me.
For a long time, he came to the sentence without a head, "You have lost weight." ”
"Really? I'm afraid that the right minister is mistaken, and I will leave first if I have something to do! "I said lightly and was about to turn around.
He grabbed my hand behind me, "Wait! ”
"Let go!" I subconsciously shook off Shen Xiao's hand.
Unexpectedly, we were too close to the wall at this time, and I slammed his hand directly against the wall with such force.
The back of the white hand was worn out, and beads of blood immediately overflowed down the wound.
"Why are you doing this to me?" Shen Xiao lowered his voice and asked.
Then, something seemed to dim in his eyes, replaced by an endless gloom.
My heart trembled unconsciously, and for some reason, after looking at his eyes, I suddenly felt that I didn't know him.
It's as if the person I knew before was not the Shen Xiao in front of me, and this person with a gloomy face was the real Shen Xiao.
"Why have you changed? You wouldn't have done this to me before! Shen Xiao frowned and approached me, and his eyes became a little strange.
I couldn't help but take a few steps back.
Seeing this, Jingyun immediately blocked in front of me, glaring coldly at Shen Xiao.
"Su'er!" Shen Xiao looked at me a little hurtfully, and was about to step forward again.
I was afraid that the clouds would clash with him, so I hurriedly said, "It's because you've changed!" ”
"Me?" Shen Xiao was slightly stunned, as if he didn't quite understand what I said.
After a pause, I continued, "Why did you cut off Jinya's leg? ”
"You're doing this to me because of her?" Shen Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly suspiciously.
"Just tell me if you cut off her leg!"
"Yes!"
"Why are you doing this?" I looked at him in disbelief, but the cruelty had already spread wantonly on that face.
His eyes were cold, "Because she hurt you!" That's why I want her to pay, why not! ”
"Hurt me?"
"Do you remember that you heard that Zhongli was bullied by a group of villains in the market when he was defeated and sad and lonely?"
When I say that, I seem to have some impressions.
Seeing that I was silent, Shen Xiao said again, "Those people are those people that Jin Ya spent a lot of money to find, because she hates you!" ”
"Jealousy," I muttered, and it dawned on me.
No wonder, when I was in Hanzhou, Jin Ya would say that I instigated Shen Xiao to cut off her leg to retaliate because I hated her for teaching me a lesson.
"How? Now you should figure it out! It's all because of Yin Linxi! If it weren't for him, you wouldn't have to marry here, you wouldn't have been bullied, your family wouldn't have been ruined, and all of this would have been born if it weren't for him! ”
"Shen Xiao" I frowned, I couldn't even believe my ears, "How can you become like this, all this has nothing to do with him at all!" ”
"It's you! Do you think he is genuinely treating you well? I might as well tell you that Yin Linxi is now with your brother-killer and enemy Alhatu! ”
"What did you say?"
My surroundings began to become noisy, but only his sentence "Yin Linxi is now with your brother-killer Alhatu" was particularly clear.
"How is this possible? He's obviously in the house! My voice trembled uncontrollably.
Shen Xiao laughed out loud and stopped for a long time.
Then he violently pushed away the shocking clouds that were blocking me, and strode forward to grab my hand, "Since you believe in him like this, then I'll let you see what kind of person Yin Linxi is!" ”
"Shen Xiao!" I exclaimed.
But he didn't care about pulling me to the empty market.
I also found a more secluded place, so that I might be able to see the gates.
And just now I felt that the noise around me was getting louder and louder.
It wasn't until a large group of people riding tall horses walked in from the city gate that I realized that the sound was the Hu Le of the Tibetan people
Looking closely at the city gate, the man dressed as a Tibetan man on a tall horse, my heart instantly felt as if someone had struck me, and then completely emptied.
The memory line was also pulled back to the night full of coldness and death in Fengcheng with the arrogant but indifferent man.
Everything is as clear as it was yesterday.
Hatred is like a poison that grows wantonly in the bottom of my heart, and in the blink of an eye, it occupies my whole heart, leaving no more gaps.
"If you look closer, there's anyone else in their ranks." Shen Xiao finished speaking.
I looked closer to the group again, and suddenly I saw a familiar face beside Alhattu.
At this moment, he was dressed in a white military uniform, sitting on a red horse, neck to neck with Alhatu, with a gentle smile between his nose and thin lips.
"How so?" I sat down on the ground in shock.
Shen Xiao chuckled, "Now you know what's going on, right?" ”
"How so!" I just asked one sentence after another.
When Shen Xiao saw me, he raised his hand and helped me up, "Actually, he has already sent someone to spy on you, the purpose is to keep you completely in the dark, because he needs to play the role of the prince well in front of the emperor, so he will not allow you to destroy this visit to Xianyu this time." ”
"Surveillance" That's when I remembered the man who had hit me in the back, and that his series of strange actions were probably designed to attract my attention.
Don't... Everything is really as Shen Xiao said, that person was sent by Yin Linxi?
"But why do you know so much?" I looked at Shen Xiao coldly.
Shen Xiao chuckled, "According to the original, the person sitting next to Alhatu today should have been mine, but I had a holiday with Alhatu, and the emperor didn't let me participate in the plan of the two countries." ”
"So, tell me what to do? What kind of heart do you have? ”
"Don't worry, even if you want me to risk my life, I will never hurt you, now I just want you to see Yin Linxi's true face, that's all," Shen Xiao's smile was meaningful, "If you still don't believe it, you might as well go back to the mansion to have a look, if I guess correctly, after Yin Linxi sent Alhatu to the palace, the first thing I did when I returned to the mansion was to find the person who was spying on you." ”
