Chapter 174: Don't Debunk
In the side hall, after nightfall, a black shadow suddenly rushed in from outside the empty house, Zhang Xun immediately got up, and instinctively made a state of alertness. After seeing the face of the person who came, his nervous expression relaxed, and he knelt on the ground: "My subordinates knock on the prince!" ”
"Get up! Along the way, you've worked hard. Yan Wushuang spoke, and the person had already sat down on the chair at the top.
"The prince is serious, what his subordinates do is just a trivial matter, and he doesn't dare to say that he is hard." Zhang Xun got up, his words still respectful. The prince just asked him to escort Miss Jiang to Donglan Kingdom, and he really didn't dare to bow down for such a trivial matter.
Yan Wushuang nodded, and then said, "It's good that you arrive, this king has something important for you to do." ”
"Lord Wang, please command, your subordinates will do their best!" Zhang Xun knelt down again.
"The ice silkworm is no longer here, you take someone to find out the whereabouts, you must do it as soon as possible, this king doesn't want people to get first!" Speaking of this, Yan Wushuang's thick eyebrows furrowed.
"Yes!" Zhang Xun got up and took the order.
Jiang Yuqing woke up from her dream, her clothes had already been wet with sweat, the night outside the window was as thick as ink, and the two candles in the room emitted a faint light, which could not drive away the fear in her heart at all.
The face was terrifying, jet black, snaking and twisting like a centipede...... It's like a ghost, not a human face at all.
Whose face is that? Why did it appear in her dreams?
No, not a dream! She couldn't remember how she fell asleep, let alone what it was.
Jiang Yuqing was frightened and quickly got up from the bed, but before the person reached the door, the door was opened, so frightened that she hurriedly retreated to the corner and shouted in panic: "Don't come here!" ”
"Girl, are you really awake? The slave heard the shouting in the next room, and guessed that you had woken up. After the door was opened, a maid came in, and when she saw Jiang Yuqing who woke up, she immediately stepped forward with a smile.
"Don't be afraid, girl, the slave is responsible for serving your Qiuyue."
The maid's voice was crisp and smiling, which dissipated a lot of fear in Jiang Yuqing's heart. She stared fixedly at the maid in front of her, who was about her age, and asked calmly, "Who did you just say?" ”
"Back to the girl, the slave's name is Qiuyue, and she is a maid sent by the prince to serve the girl." The maid named Qiuyue replied respectfully.
"Lord Wang?" Jiang Yuqing read it again, and the already relaxed expression on her face became nervous again, "You said this is the palace?" Then your prince is ......"
"It's the Ghost King! Girl, what's wrong with you? Qiu Yue replied to her words, but felt strange in her heart. Didn't this girl come to the palace just to find the prince? How can you not even know who the prince is?
The Ghost King?
She was really in the Youwang Mansion, which proved that what she saw before was not a dream, she really came to the Youwang Mansion, and then was led into the Youwang room by a guard, but she didn't see Yan Wushuang, but saw a ghost-like face......
The memory recovered, and Jiang Yuqing's heart was even more frightened.
"That'...... So who am I seeing? Is it a human or a ghost? "How can such a face be owned by a human being? But if she doesn't see people, then it's ...... Isn't it a ghost?
"Oh, girl, you can't talk nonsense! If this is heard by the prince, you will definitely ......" Hearing Jiang Yuqing say such rebellious words in her mouth, Qiu Yue hurriedly stepped forward to stop her. At the same time, his eyes were already looking around in a panic, as if he was worried that someone had heard this.
Jiang Yuqing was frightened by her move, and her voice became lower when she spoke again.
"What will happen? Why did the prince punish me? Jiang Yuqing looked at Qiu Yue with a puzzled expression.
The ghost king that Qiu Yue said should be Yan Wushuang, how could Yan Wushuang punish her for saying bad things?
"Girl, ...... you" Qiu Yue glanced at her, made to cry without tears by the look on her face, "Do you really not know or fake don't know?" The person you're talking about is the prince! ”
She actually asked the prince if he was a human or a ghost, and made fun of the prince like this, didn't this girl want to live?
"What? You say that the person is not a ghost or a ghost, but it is the ghost king? Jiang Yuqing was shocked, no matter how she thought about it, she would never have thought that the Youwang would be like this.
"Shhhh Girl, be quiet, if your words get out, the prince will know about it, and he will definitely be killed! Qiu Yue listened to Jiang Yuqing's words, and her face was already pale with fright.
Why is she so unlucky, she was arranged to serve this girl, this girl is so unscrupulous, she will be killed by her sooner or later!
Listening to what Qiu Yue said, Jiang Yuqing really didn't dare to continue to keep her mouth shut, and asked in a low voice: "Qiu Yue, why did he become like this, Lord Wang?" ”
She couldn't believe that such a face belonged to a living person!
"Girl, you really don't know?" Seeing that she was still at a loss, Qiu Yue also knew that she was asking too much. So he sighed, "The prince was not like this originally, I think the prince was personable and a dragon among people, I don't know how many women admired the prince, but after a fire, ......"
Qiu Yue told Jiang Yuqing about the burning of the palace and the unfortunate disability of King You, Jiang Yuqing listened to it, and finally knew it in her heart.
"That's it, I'm still ...... I really don't know! Jiang Yuqing smiled awkwardly. Thinking that at that time, Yan Wushuang was in a hurry, and she didn't have time to ask anything, so he left, so that he didn't know anything and wanted to make a fool of himself in front of others.
Seeing her stunned face, Qiu Yue couldn't help but be curious: "Please forgive the slave for saying more, why did you come to the palace, girl?" ”
I don't even know that the prince was disfigured by the fire, why did this girl come here?
"Of course I'm here for the king." Seeing that Qiu Yue questioned herself, Jiang Yuqing finally stopped looking timid and afraid, and raised her voice and said, "I have something important to meet the prince, and you can't make it clear to you, you just pass this on to the prince." ”
Now that she thinks about it, the ghostly person she saw before is someone else, it is clearly Yan Wushuang. It's just that she was too timid at the time, and she was so scared and fainted. I don't know what Yan Wushuang thinks in his heart? Would you be upset that you shouldn't have brought her here?
The more she thought about it, the more scared she became, eager to see Yan Wushuang, and wanted to exonerate herself.
"The slave knows." Although Qiu Yue listened inexplicably, she also knew the affairs of the masters, and it was inconvenient to be a slave, so she nodded obediently and said no more.
"Do you want to go? What are you doing standing here? Jiang Yuqing scolded unhappily. In front of these minions, she has to show some master's appearance, otherwise she will really be looked down upon.
"Now?" Hearing this, Qiu Yue's face was stunned, and she looked at Jiang Yuqing blankly.
"Yes." Jiang Yuqing replied impatiently.
"I'm afraid not right now." Qiu Yue said with an embarrassed face, "At this moment, in the dead of night, the prince is going to bed, and even if the slave maid eats the gall of the ambitious leopard, he does not dare to disturb the prince's dream." ”
After Qiu Yue's words, Jiang Yuqing suddenly remembered that it was late at night, and it was impossible for her to see Yan Wushuang immediately.
Jiang Yuqing's face was gloomy, and when she looked at Qiu Yue again, her tone was very bad: "Since that's the case, then let's go and spread the word tomorrow morning!" But you must pass it on to the prince word for word, you know? ”
"Yes, the slave knows." Qiu Yue hurriedly replied.
"Alright, you can step back first!" Sent away Qiuyue, Jiang Yuqing tossed and turned, unable to sleep. She knew that Gu Wanwan had already returned to the imperial city, and Yan Wushuang followed, the two must have met, and she didn't know if she had done anything behind her back.
Gu Wanwan is her biggest rival, Yan Wushuang has really done too much for Gu Wanwan, and has paid a lot, these are things that she can't ignore. If you want Yan Wushuang to change her mind, you can only let Gu Wanwan disappear.
However, she was not the only one who wanted Gu Wanwan to disappear, she suddenly remembered that the last time she was sick, in the inn, someone sneaked into her room and put down a note.
The note was not left by someone else, it was left by the queen, and she recognized the queen's handwriting.
The queen asked her to help deal with Gu Wanwan, and said that she would send someone to help her, but she didn't know who it was and when it would appear!
The sky was slightly bright, and Gu Wanwan was awakened by a strong knock on the door.
"Ling'er, what are you eating this morning?" She slept late last night, Ling'er should have known, if it wasn't for something important, she wouldn't have knocked on the door so early.
Gu Wanwan put on her clothes, walked over and opened the door, and when she saw the person who appeared at the door, she couldn't help but be stunned: "Bai Wutong, why are you?" ”
"Weichen heard about yesterday's incident, so he rushed back overnight." Bai Wutong replied, his eyes locking on Gu Wanwan.
"Yesterday?" Gu Wanwan was still drowsy, and after thinking about it for a while, she realized that Bai Wutong was talking about Yan Wushuang's visit, "Who did you listen to?" ”
Bai Wutong entered the house, not as formal as usual, and poured himself a cup of cold tea and drank it: "Weichen really doesn't worry about leaving the princess here alone. ”
"You're sending someone to watch over me?" From his answer, Gu Wanwan heard the answer.
"It's not surveillance, it's concern." Bai Wutong explained a little nervously.
Although others are not by her side, his heart is always on her, and he does not allow anything to happen to her, but he does not know it.
"Actually, it's not a big deal, I can handle such a small thing, you don't have to worry." Bai Wutong didn't even send a spirit bird to inquire, so he rushed back in a hurry, and he must have been very worried.
But that's really not a big deal, right? And with her ingenuity, how can there be a problem that can't be solved?
"But princess, when Weichen heard that King Youwang left, his face was very ugly, and it was hard to guarantee that he would not retaliate!" Bai Wutong's face did not change for the better because of Gu Wanwan's words, but became even more cold.
"Afraid of him? It's good that he's kind of here! That impostor, I won't be able to do it! Gu Wanwan snorted coldly and said disdainfully.
"It was precisely because he knew that it was Yan Wushuang that Wei Chen was scared in his heart." Bai Wutong frowned, then looked at Gu Wanwan and said seriously, "Princess, can you promise Weichen not to expose Yan Wushuang?" ”
