Chapter 6: Three Women
"What are the results of the investigation?"
"Back to His Royal Highness, it was really the prince's person, he had been injured by his subordinates, but unfortunately let him run away, and his subordinates were incompetent."
She ...... You okay! ”
“…… There is no injury, but... I want to see you! ”
"Hmmm......"
"This time, thanks to General Nishi, why don't Your Highness go and see ......?"
"Did you have a relationship when you fought side by side? If it weren't for her sake, this time Hubu Xi Susheng, how could this king easily tolerate him? ”
"Yes! Forgive my subordinates. ”
"How's the arrangement of the hungry?"
"It has been arranged, and Xishangshu has also begun to prepare to open a warehouse and release grain."
"Good! At this time, it is the season of green and yellow, and the problem of food must not be lost again! ”
"My subordinates understand."
"Well, the disaster relief matter will be handed over to Yunchen first, you quickly go to Jinzhou and Princess Kang Shuo to explain the situation, just say that it is the meaning of this king, and then ...... Act at the opportune time, and protect the princess carefully. ”
"Yes, my subordinates obey."
The voice was not gone, and the man was gone.
———
When I woke up, it was already the next day, and the room was empty, and there was an illusion in the palace. Zhu Ran looked at the surrounding furnishings and made sure that he was still in the inn.
Just as he was about to get out of bed, he heard a female voice from the house: "Slave Jade Flute, on the orders of His Royal Highness, protect Madame." ”
The voice was cold, and he couldn't hear the waves, and he was startled.
"Well, what about the prince?" Zhu Ran asked as calmly as his voice as he could.
"Jade flute doesn't know, this is the clothes prepared for you, please change it quickly."
Seeing that it was his usual clothes, Zhuran's guard was also relaxed. "The prince wants me to wear women's clothes?"
"Yes." Yudi's answer was crisp and neat, not a word of nonsense, to be exact, she only said one word.
Seeing this, Zhu Ran didn't ask any more questions, and hurriedly dressed up. looked at the men's clothes that she took off, and thought about the time when she had no scruples yesterday, she finally shook her head helplessly, freedom is always a flash in the pan for her, maybe that kind of presumptuousness is only once yesterday, after all, Zhu Heyu is not elegant every day.
Sitting in the carriage, although it is not as bumpy as riding a horse, it also does not have the wide view of the horse. The jade flute sat on Zhuran's side, with a straight back, and his hands habitually clenched into fists, a feeling of saber rattling, which invisibly gave people a kind of oppression.
"Madam, Your Highness wants you to be careful." After walking for more than an hour, Yudi suddenly spoke.
Zhu Ran was stunned when she said this, and asked her to pay attention to proportion? What measure? I was just about to blurt out the jade flute, but I just gave up seeing her sparse appearance, and I couldn't ask anything.
After walking for a while, the carriage suddenly stopped. I only heard the jade flute say: "When I arrived, I asked Mrs. to get out of the car." ”
Supported by the jade flute, she got out of the carriage, and Zhu Ran felt the strength of her hand, although it was unintentional, but it still pinched her shoulder.
The sun was strong outside, and it was already noon. Zhu Ran stayed in the carriage for a long time, and he was a little dizzy when he came out. Looking around, I came to a village, front and back were low grass houses that were about to collapse, very dilapidated.
Led by the jade flute, Zhu Ran walked into one of the grass houses.
The house was in a mess, the firewood and grass used to start the fire were everywhere, and the dust was so hot that people wanted to cough. Zhu Ran was puzzled in his heart, and suddenly saw a woman sitting on the stove, wearing a military uniform, her hair was neatly combed, and her arm holding the sword was dripping blood, but her expression was calm, as if it didn't hurt, and her eyes were full of ruthlessness.
When the woman heard the sound, she was excited at first, but when she saw Zhu Ran and the jade flute, she immediately showed a disappointed look.
Zhu Ran looked at it, and his heart tightened.
"He didn't come!" The woman seemed to say to the jade flute, and as if talking to herself, her voice trembled.
"General West, Your Highness said that I don't want to see you, and I have never liked you. Hope you're doing it well. Yudi couldn't bear to say, although she was used to life and death killing, and she was used to being cold-blooded and ruthless, but after all, she was a woman, and she couldn't bear to hurt her.
"Heh... Scold... Heh..."Xi Ziyu smiled miserably: "Then what else did he let you do?" There was a choked voice and a hint of hope.
"Your Highness said that you will meet the princess of the side, and you will know why he doesn't like you!" The jade flute spoke, her voice back to its original state, distant and slightly cruel.
Zhu Ran listened to the conversation between the two, and finally understood what the jade flute meant by asking her to pay attention to proportions in the car just now, and looked at Xi Ziyu carefully.
General West, listen to the jade flute call her a general, she is a general! Zhu Ran has admired women heroes since she was a child, but looking at the woman in front of her, not only did she not admire it in her heart, but she felt pitiful, she fell in love with Zhu Heyu.
After listening to the words of the jade flute, Xi Ziyu set his eyes on Zhuran. "Du Yu~" Xi Ziyu's words were stuck in his throat in the middle of his words, how could it be Du Yuyan! It's just that it looks alike.
"I want to be a dignified General Long Wuwei, born and died for him, but I can't match a pair of skins that look like her!" Xi Ziyu withdrew his eyes from Zhu Ran, tears sliding down his cheeks.
"General West, bandage it!" Jade Flute took out a roll of white bandages and a small porcelain vase from his cuff, pointed to Xi Ziyu's bloodied arm and said.
Xi Ziyu looked at his arm and smiled miserably. Asked the Jade Flute: "Isn't the Jade Flute girl jealous?" ”
Yudi threw the bandage towards Xi Ziyu, "Love bag or not, it's good to waste it!" ”
"Yo, I'm angry! It seems that General Ben is talking about the girl's heart. ”
The Jade Flute glanced at Xi Ziyu and sneered: "The Jade Flute is just His Highness's guard. It's not like General West, who 'can't measure himself', and in the end hurts others and himself! "I can't help myself, and the words Jade Flute said are particularly heavy.
"Hurt others and hurt yourself?" But Xi Ziyu repeated the last few words.
"I went to great lengths for him every time and again, but in the end, it ended up like this. Do you feel that it hurts me, and does it hurt others? ”
"General Xi doesn't have to appeal to grievances here, His Royal Highness will show your merits to the emperor after returning to the court, but I don't know if the big corruption case of Lord Hubu Xi, I don't know if it will affect the general!"
"You!" Xi Ziyu's voice was angry.
"Is the general angry, or is he afraid? The jade flute hasn't finished talking yet! The jade flute glanced at Xi Ziyu and then said: "Your Highness thought of the general and suppressed the crimes of Lord Xi. The money embezzled by Lord Nishi has also been bought by His Royal Highness to help the victims. The merits and demerits of Lord Xi are offset, and the old accounts of His Highness and the general are also written off, what does the general think? ”
"Then the merit of helping the victims is also Zhu Heyu's alone?" Xi Ziyu asked rhetorically.
"Greed is not enough to swallow elephants, General Xi won't be ignorant of this truth!"
"Well... Okay..."Xi Ziyu said a few good words in a row, and his body quickly moved towards Zhuran.
Zhu Ran was listening to the conversation between the two, and suddenly felt the cool metal touch his face.
"You said that if I draw a flower here, what will happen to Zhu Heyu when he sees it?" Xi Ziyu held the sword in his hand and gestured at Zhu Ran's face, his voice was extremely cold.
Zhu Ran didn't have time to think about it, and subconsciously hid back, but she was imprisoned by her and couldn't move.
Jade Flute clenched his fists on the side, "Are you crazy?" ”
I only heard Xi Ziyu suddenly laugh uninhibitedly, "I actually protected Miss Yudi personally, and I really got Zhu Heyu's favor!" Just kidding with the side princess, I, Xi Ziyu, will not be the same as Zhu Heyu, despicable! As he spoke, he walked out.
By the time Zhu Ran looked out, the person had disappeared.
Zhu Ran breathed a sigh of relief, and Xi Ziyu's words floated in Zhu Ran's ears, "despicable......"
"Madame, let's go!" The cold voice suddenly sounded in the withered grass hut, and it was actually terrifying.
The two of them came out of the grass hut and walked towards the carriage, Zhu Ran smelled a faint smell of blood in the air, and then he thought of why he didn't see a single villager, and the whole village was full of solemn silence, as if after a fierce battle.
Yudi noticed Zhu Ran's doubts, frowned, and felt a wave of disgust in his heart. This place has just been washed in blood, and no one in the village has survived. A woman who is pampered and pampered if she knows it, she won't be scared to death!
When she came to the carriage, Yudi was just about to help Zhu Ran up, but Zhu Ran thought that her hand strength was actually dodging before, and she climbed up with difficulty. The jade flute was empty, and he looked at Zhu Ran's struggling appearance indifferently, and then got into the carriage.
The carriage drove at great speed again, Zhu Ran didn't ask where the jade flute went, the two women sat together, common sense should have a lot of topics, but they didn't, so they just sat dryly. Zhu Ran was embarrassed, closed his eyes, and leaned against the crosswood.
"Isn't the Jade Flute girl jealous?" Xi Ziyu's words suddenly swayed in Zhu Ran's mind. Jade Flute also likes Zhu Heyu? Thinking of this, Zhu Ran suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the jade flute. found that the jade flute was also looking at herself, looking at each other. Compared with endurance, Zhu Ran knew that he was no match for the Jade Flute, and took the lead in removing his eyes. Jade flute, Xi Ziyu, and countless women who admire Zhu Heyu, counting themselves, are all jealous because of a Du Yuyan, how much is the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion alluring the country and the city! Zhu Ran thought about it and laughed.
