Chapter 86: The Dying Star (2)
Seeing that his mother was threatening death, Yan Shu had to compromise and wave to the Chu soldiers on the city tower, "Let them go!" ”
"Thank you General Yan Shu," the grandson smiled and said to Yan Shu, "It's just that in order to keep everything safe, we have to trouble Ling Tang and Ling Gongzi to go with us." ”
"I warn you, don't deceive people too much!" Yan Shu was angry.
Gong's grandson raised his eyes and looked at the city tower, his unfazed eyes were full of calculations, and then he said quietly, "Don't worry, General Yan Shu, I promise... As soon as we get to safety, we will send them back. ”
"How can I trust you?" Yan Shu's face was grim, and his cold gaze swept back and forth over us.
"Then I beg your pardon, now you have no choice but to trust me." The grandsons all squinted coldly, and glanced at Yan Shu's wife and children behind him.
Although Yan Shu was unwilling, he had no choice but to have his family in the hands of Gongsun Zidu, so he had to compromise again, "Then according to what you say, but if you dare to lie to me, I, Yan Shu, will break you into thousands of pieces even if I fight for this life." ”
"General Yan Shu, don't worry." The grandson made another gesture before turning around and taking my hand, and said in a deep voice to the dozen henchmen, "What are you waiting for?" Why don't you take the old monarch and leave? ”
"Yes!" Those henchmen.
Then, under the escort of the carriage sent by Yan Shu, our group was sent to the outskirts of the imperial city.
"In this case, the old lady is having trouble with us on this trip." In the carriage, the grandsons all nodded slightly to Yan Shu's mother in respect.
But Yan Shu's mother didn't appreciate it very much, after all, the man in front of him not only hurt his daughter-in-law, but now he threatened her son with the lives of her and her little grandson, so when the grandson nodded and signaled, Yan Shu's mother just let out a thin "um" from her nose and turned her head to look aside.
The grandson understood that the old lady was forced to do it on the spot because of her own obscenity, so she smiled, lifted the curtain of the carriage and drilled out before she apologized to Yan Shu's mother, "Old lady, don't panic, we are just asking for a way to live, not bad people, besides, you also saw the situation just now, if I am not ruthless, I am afraid that General Yan Shu has already executed us at this time, but... Please rest assured, old lady, I will send someone to send you and the little boy back to General Yan Shu safely later. ”
Hearing this, Yan Shu's mother turned around, although she still didn't speak, the look in her eyes softened a little.
The grandson and grandson gently hooked their lips, and then went around to the back of the carriage and whispered something to two of the henchmen who accompanied him.
After a while, I saw that the two nodded, followed by one of them stepped on horseback and galloped in the direction of the imperial city, and after a while, the other pulled the carriage carrying Yan Shu's mother and turned around, and also drove in the direction of the imperial city.
"Humph!" The grandson sneered, looking at the direction in which the two disappeared, and the meaning of calculation in his eyes became more obvious.
At this time, I had just placed my father and emperor, but at a glance, I saw that my grandson seemed to be a little abnormal, and I was inevitably a little worried that he would do something extraneous.
So he took his hand behind him and said worriedly, "Gongsun, what are your plans?" ”
"What?" The beautiful eyes of my grandson overflowed with a hint of confusion and looked at me.
It made me anxious, "Didn't you send two people to send Yan Shu's mother back?" What are your plans? Just let them go back? ”
"What if it weren't?" The grandsons raised their eyebrows, "Don't you want me to send them back safely?" ”
"No, I thought..."
"You thought I'd kill them?" The grandson laughed and scratched the tip of my nose, "Are you thinking too badly of this girl?" ”
I touched my nose and was stunned for a moment, it was undeniable that I had such a guess in my mind for a moment, but now looking at the calm expression on his face, I didn't think he was pretending.
Am I really too careful?
I also had some doubts in my heart.
Gongzi took the opportunity to take my hand and said with a smile, "Okay, don't think about it, the most important thing now is to hurry back to Zheng Guo, and then find a good doctor to cure your father's illness." ”
With that, he was going to pull me to the other carriage that Yan Shu had prepared for us.
But I paused and withdrew my hand from his palm.
"What's wrong?" My grandson all looked back at me with concern.
I glanced at Ying Changle, who was being held by the clouds with a face full of resentment, and then looked at my father who was sitting under the tree with empty eyes, my heart ached, and my eyes unconsciously fell a little ruthlessly, "Actually, I wanted to ask you a long time ago, why didn't you feel strange at all after learning my true identity?" And I look at the situation on the city tower today, how do you seem to know everything as it is, and you still have someone to catch Yan Shu's family in time? And the girl who is Jingyun, why is she the person you placed next to Ying Changle? Does this mean that you already know my details? ”
"You've got a lot of questions." The grandson of the grandson all held his forehead, and Ruyu's face raised a touch of helplessness, and said with a wry smile, "Then I'll pick two of them to answer, right?" I'll explain the rest to you later. ”
Before I could say anything, my grandson acquiesced, and continued, "First, you said that it is not strange for me to learn your true identity, in fact, the answer is very simple, because for me, you are the princess of Zhongli, and it doesn't matter if anyone else, you are my own sultan, I naturally know that there is something hidden from me in you, but I am not in a hurry to know, just because I have time and so on... Wait for you to open up to me. ”
"Gongsun...", I looked at the confidence on that exquisite face in a complicated way, and I took a step forward.
Gong's grandson blocked in front of me with his palm, "I haven't finished my words yet, aren't you still curious about why I was able to catch Yan Shu's family in time?" I'll tell you, it's because I've heard that although Yan Shu is a protector general, he is a good person and a great achievement, so he is naturally unwilling to be arranged by King Chu Wu as the main general of the city, and he is the most shameful to those who love Ah Yi and fornicate, so ... If you think about the situation when we came to Zhongli, those rich children dared to tell right and wrong in front of everyone, and they were undoubtedly instigated by Concubine Win, but you also have to think about it, if there is no acquiescence from Yan Shu, do you really think that just a harem concubine can really reach Zhongli? Not to mention, as soon as we stepped into Zhongli, she immediately set a trap. ”
"You mean..."I missed a beat in my heart, "Yan Shu deliberately took advantage of Ying Changle?" Is the purpose to catch a big fish in a long line? ”
"That's right," the grandson smiled, and turned his eyes to look in the direction of Zhongli Imperial City, "If it weren't what I expected, I'm afraid that the girl in Jingyun would have been exposed in Yan Shu a long time ago, and the reason why he didn't expose it was so that he could make a great contribution to winning the concubine in the future, and this opportunity was waiting for us to come and rescue the old lord." ”
"So, you found Yan Shu's mansion through those few gentlemen?"
"Clever." Under the eyebrows of the male and grandson raised slightly, a pair of eyes as misty as a fox were full of obscure emotions.
Then, while I was considering, he raised his long hand and grabbed me, and whispered softly in my ear, "But... Everything has to be looked forward to, we came to Zhongli privately without informing the king this time, and the old thief of Zhao Guogong will definitely take the opportunity to join me in the court, so I have to think of a way to fool the past in front of the king. ”
"You mean..."
"Hehe..."The grandsons all chuckled, "I heard from the spies that before leaving, King Wu of Chu had handed over the sword of Zhenguo Tai'a to Yan Shu's hands, and ordered to see this sword as if King Wu of Chu was coming in person, the purpose of which was to restrain the old ministers of Zhongli who did not obey discipline, if I can get the sword, I will return to Zheng State and present it to the king again... Isn't that a good thing? ”
"What did you say?" Unexpectedly, I was shocked when he was so calculating, "Gongsun, don't you want to come nonsense, how can the treasure of the town of Chu be so easy to come by?" Besides, to take it from the hands of the lord of the Chu State who holds the military power, it is simply a dream! ”
"Don't worry!" The grandson ignored my worries, but smiled and shouted to a few henchmen guarding the side of the carriage, "You guys quickly help the old monarch into the carriage, it's time to leave." ”
So saying, he walked towards a horse tethered to a tree, and I didn't care that I was following him.
"Gongsun... Gongsun..."
Just as I was about to grab Gongsun Zidu's arm, there was a sudden explosion behind me - one of the people guarding behind the carriage was killed?
What's going on?
The faces of the unknown people showed panic, and they had no choice but to be in the dark, so they had to draw their long swords one after another, staring at the surroundings vigilantly.
Gongsun Zidu wrinkled his eyebrows, walked quickly to the murdered side, and said coldly, "What are you waiting for? The pursuers are coming, so don't you hurry up and help the old monarch into the carriage! ”
I was shocked, and hurriedly ran over to help my father, who was still sitting under the tree, and moved to the carriage.
And at this moment, the branches of the trees around us moved slightly... It was quiet on all sides, and even the sound of birds flapping their wings in the distant mountains could be heard clearly.
Under the dim sky, the hot wind suddenly surged, and the woods rattled, and everything seemed so unusual and murderous.
"Gongsun, what should I do?" Every string in my head was tight, and no matter how dull I was, I smelled danger from the atmosphere.
Naturally, my grandson understood the situation better than I did, so he yelled at me, "Why don't you get into the carriage quickly?" ”
"Gongsun..."
"Let's go!" The grandson of the male and grandson all blushed and looked at the shocking clouds on the side, "Quickly bring her in for me!" ”
"Yes!" Jingyun couldn't care about winning Changle anymore, and as soon as her grandson yelled like this, she ran over to me in a panic, "Girl, get into the carriage quickly, don't let the doctor worry." ”
