4. Re-enter Zhuhua

After Zhuang Wanqin took care of everything in Nanguo, two years had flown by.

Stepping into Zhuhua again, it is a bustling city. Just a border town, you can see the strength of the Zhuhua country - all the business on the streets outside the town is in the shops, and there are no stalls occupying the streets.

The bronze plaque reflects the sunlight shining on it, and although it is a small town, the grandeur is not inferior to the dilapidated capital of Nanguo.

Even......

Zhuang Wanqin looked at the laughter of the people here and sighed lightly.

In comparison, it is more than that!

Looking at the long queue in front, Zhuang Wanqin silently stepped forward and waited in line to enter the town.

"The second princess said that she was the regent on the surface, but now the dragon chair is empty. Isn't she the Empress? ”

"Well, it doesn't matter if she's the empress or the regent. Now that the war between Nanguo and Zhuhua has been temporarily stopped, who doesn't know that if Zhuhua wants to seize Nanguo, it will be a matter of moving his fingers. ”

"Who's to say it isn't? If this is not the case, why would you and I go from Nan to this Zhuhua border to make a living? ”

Zhuang Wanqin was very angry in her heart when she heard this unpleasant conversation, but she couldn't speak because of her identity. This is Zhuhua's territory, and if someone knows her whereabouts, it will be detrimental to Nanguo.

"I also heard that when the princess of Nanguo heard about the return of the second princess, she risked her life and ran away!"

"Yes, it's not that I'm afraid that the throne will be taken away. The border has been checked so strictly in the past two days, isn't it just that she is being investigated? ”

Hearing this, Zhuang Wanqin smiled mockingly in her heart. The people of this market really only think that the royal people only value power. Have they ever thought that the mother died of a serious illness a few days ago, as a daughter, shouldn't the sister of the princess risk death to return to China to send her mother a ride?

By the time I was listening, there were only two or three people in line in front of me. One of the soldiers guarding the gate held a portrait in his hand, and the other searched the person entering the town.

It was an orderly process, but it was chaotic when it was Zhuang Wanqin's turn.

"Take her down!"

Listening to the shouts of the soldier holding the portrait, Zhuang Wanqin's neck had been locked by three halberds.

What's going on? Don't you look like a common person? It shouldn't be, Zhuang Wanqin looked at the person who was allowed to leave in front of her, and the person was dressed much more luxuriously than her.

"Look at what, that's our Xu Gongzi. Can you, a sinful body, see? ”

Xu Gongzi? Could it be that it is the youngest son of the Duke of Dingguo? Legend has it that after he was 15 years old, he traveled to the mountains and rivers after winning the top prize, and often brought some rare treasures to the princes of the country, and had a high reputation in the government and the opposition.

How could he be here?

As if he heard his name mentioned behind him, Xu Ruqing stopped moving forward and turned around with a little confusion, but his face changed when he saw Zhuang Wanqin, and then returned to normal. The whole process was almost imperceptible, but Zhuang Wanqin, who was staring at him, was all in his eyes.

Xu Ru glanced at the two soldiers and did not look at Zhuang Wanqin again. In a voice just long enough for the two soldiers to hear, he said, "Don't forget to prepare the people who have stopped you tomorrow." ”

"Yes, Master Xu."

After the two soldiers replied to Xu Ruqing solemnly, they pressed Zhuang Wanqin and left the town gate.

It wasn't until she came to the place where she was detained that Zhuang Wanqin understood.

The person here looks very similar to himself, presumably the person in the portrait. But shouldn't that be his sister in the portrait?

Could it be that the two of us look like this?

Although Zhuang Wanqin and Zhuang Wanyan are siblings, they are very different when they are born. Zhuang Wanqin is skinny, on the contrary, Zhuang Wanyan is a chubby little doll.

Later, the imperial doctor said that Zhuang Wanqin's body was too weak and needed to find a clean place to recuperate.

At that time, the empress originally planned to send her to the royal temple, but fortunately, the empress's childhood friend Xuanyi traveled to Nanguo, so she entrusted Zhuang Wanqin to Xuanyi to support her.

In her own memory, Sister Tainu is always the most dazzling and capable, and she wants Sister Tainu to tolerate her everywhere. When he left at the age of four, the two were not half similar at all, who would have thought that they would be so similar now!

The night was uneventful, and the next morning, he was called up early by the jailer, and after packing up, he stood in front of the yafu and waited.

In the distance, I saw dust in the street, and a group of cavalry came from a distance, causing everyone to take refuge.

"Stop!"

The leader waved his right hand, and the army stopped in front of the yafu.

The moon-white robe is matched with a pure white jade crown, and he looks like a handsome boy who does not eat fireworks in the world.

However, who knows what that boy is like in his heart?

"Tell Gongzi Xu, the personnel have arrived and can leave at any time."

Xu Ru nodded lightly, and slowly and carefully looked at Zhuang Wanqin and the others.

"She, she, her. These three will come with me, and the others will disperse. ”

I saw Xu Ruqing pointing at Zhuang Wanqin and the other two people, and a soldier immediately pushed the three out behind him.

I thought there should be horses, but I didn't know that three weak women were going to go on foot.

Zhuang Wanqin looked at the sky speechlessly, if it weren't for the news of the princess sister as soon as possible, she would have left last night, who would have come here to be angry? It's disgusting!

When the team left the bustling area, Zhuang Wanqin realized how dangerous this road was.

Not to mention the swampy land that I crossed two days ago, the canyon in front of me alone is enough to make people's hearts frightening.

The width of the canyon simply does not allow three people to pass side by side, and if it were not for noon or midnight, the sun and moon would not even be visible.

If there is an ambush in such a place, is it not certain that he will die?

From the bottom of her heart, Zhuang Wanqin refused to enter such a dangerous place.

"Young Master Xu, can we go another way?"

Xu Ruqing didn't pay attention to Zhuang Wanqin's question, and just walked forward with the team.

This way of walking makes Zhuang Wanqin feel like she has gone all the way to the black.

Alas, it is rumored that Xu Gongzi should be a person with a city in mind, is it misinformation? I don't want to throw my life here.

Zhuang Wanqin, who was going to run away like this, looked back and found that there was one person missing.

What's the situation, the woman in blue who looks soft and weak?

No matter what, it's important to save your life first. This Xu Gongzi is famous in the government and the opposition, and there must be many enemies, maybe he is waiting for the opportunity to attack.

Just as Zhuang Wanqin untied the restraints on her hands and slowly fell to the back of the team, intending to get rid of the golden cicada, she saw Xu Ruqing stop.

Wouldn't it be, discovered?

Xu Ruqing turned the horse, and after scanning the whole army, he didn't find the woman in blue, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a contemptuous smile.

Sure enough, Prince, you still don't give up......

"The road ahead is dangerous, everyone be careful, you," Xu Ruqing pointed to Zhuang Wanqin, who was about to leave, hooked his finger and said, "Come here." ”

The canyon in front of him was dark, but at this time, Zhuang Wanqin was more willing to go to the canyon.

"Hey, hey, hey......"

Zhuang Wanqin looked at her free hands pointed at Xu Ruqing, and just smiled dryly.
