Xiao Tao, who was dancing on the stage, fell down from the three-story platform, Murong Yanzhao was about to stride forward, and the minister Mu Shen hurriedly stopped: "General, it's fine after the punishment, it's not a big deal-"

The words are not finished. has already been shouted by Murong Yanzhao: "What's the matter with you, what are you doing here?" ”

Honggu had already pounced, and Murong Yanzhao's words had not fallen, and Honggu had already howled: "Ah, Xiao Tao is out of breath." Eh, how is this good? Someone died, how can this be explained to the workshop? There's no better dancing girl in Kagetsu Fang—"

Murong Yanzhao saw Xiao Tao fall to the ground motionless, walked forward and took a look, his archery skills were still good, so far, and he was moving, he actually shot to the heart, and he went back to explain to the emperor. He snorted coldly: "Next time I come to such a thing, I will kill one when I see one." ”

Li Congshan was already stunned on the side. At this time, it was like waking up from a big dream, and a breath of irritability rose from the soles of his feet, this person was just a general of the Great Song Dynasty, who had been so entertained when he came to Datang, and he was still looking for faults, who would he be the uncle? But he dared to be angry and did not dare to speak. I had to say slowly: "I didn't expect General Murong to still carry a weapon when he watched the song and dance, could it be that General Murong also carried a bow and arrow in the Great Song Dynasty?" ”

Murong Yanzhao was choked by what he said, he was speechless for a while, and then sneered for a moment: "I'm just a rough person, I don't leave my bow and arrow when I go out, but what objection does the prince have to this dancing girl?" It's just a dancing girl, and I have a lot of big songs, if the prince is rare, drive Ming'er back and let Your Majesty reward ten or eight to you. ”

Li Congshan's face turned pale with anger, but he had to swallow his anger.

Honggu hurriedly asked her subordinates to carry Xiao Tao to the back of the stage. Wiping tears as he walked: "The girl I trained so easily, it's just gone, how can I live-"

Murong Yanzhao slapped the table: "Don't look at it." Get back! With that, he strode out in front. Mu Shen sighed and had to go out with him.

Li Congshan hurriedly got into the carriage. Hurried back to the palace and told the crown prince. Li Congjia frowned, and slammed his fist on the arm of the chair: "This Murong Yanzhao is too rampant!" Although he had already thought that Murong Yanzhao would order a little peach, he must have gone to find fault, but he didn't expect him to be so bold. Dare to shoot directly with a bow and arrow.

After sending Li Congshan back, Li Congjia hurriedly asked his staff member Shen Tong: "Is Qi Zhengxiu back?" ”

Shen Tong replied: "I'm back at noon today." ”

Li Congjia nodded, Qi Zhengxiu came back, Xiao Tao should be fine. After thinking about it, he said, "You take dozens of government soldiers to Huayuefang." ”

The subordinates carried Xiao Tao back to Taoyuan, and Qi Zhengxiu, who was guarding inside, immediately ordered the door to be closed, and instructed Honggu: "Spread the news that Miss Tao is gone." ”

Honggu couldn't help but ask: "My lord, just now you asked me to say that she is dead, and now you are so ordered, is she okay?" ”

Qi Zhengxiu frowned, and his face was blue as he had never been: "Do as I tell you first." After that, he returned to Taoyuan, looked at the little peach covered in blood, and said to Lang Zhong on the side: "It's hard work, is the arrow poisonous?" "Upper hall jumboum.

Lang Zhong looked at it carefully and said, "Fortunately, there isn't." After speaking, he said to the wheezing little peach, "The girl endured a little pain, and I pulled out the arrow." ”

Xiao Tao bit her lip, and after a sharp pain, Xiao Tao fainted in pain. Lang Zhong hurriedly wiped the wound with hot water and a cloth, applied the golden medicine, wrapped Xiao Tao's wound tightly with a linen cloth, took off the heart goggles from above the wound and handed it to Qi Zhengxiu: "Fortunately, the adults have made preparations, and the arrow has deviated to the bottom of the heart. Otherwise, if you shoot to the heart, Hua Tuo will be powerless in the world. ”

Qi Zhengxiu put aside the heart goggles a little helplessly, looking at the sweaty little peach, and he couldn't say what it felt in his heart. Looking at Murong Yanzhao's outfit tonight, he already had a judgment, but the Tang Dynasty was declining, and he had no strength to stop it. Although it saved Momo's life, it couldn't save her from pain.

Lang Zhong prescribed another decoction to be taken outside before leaving. Qi Zhengxiu also sent Xiuju out. Only him and Xiao Tao were left in the house. The night was very quiet, Xiao Tao was half asleep and half unconscious, and her breathing was fast and slow with the pain of the wound, accompanied by trembling. Qi Zhengxiu gently stroked Xiao Tao's hair, and stroked Xiao Tao's forehead, lips, eyebrows and eyes - he hadn't been so close to her for a long time. For so many years, Qi Zhengxiu didn't know what he had been busy with, obviously Xiao Tao was the closest woman to him, but he didn't know when he put her so far away.

Just as he was thinking about it, there were three knocks outside the door, and a deep voice said: "Childe, the carriage has arrived." ”

Qi Zhengxiu responded in a deep voice: "Okay." After speaking, he picked up Xiao Tao and walked out of the door.

Xiuju, who was guarding outside, chased after her: "Childe-" The words fell, and he was already stunned by the black-clothed man who followed behind Qi Zhengxiu with a palm. The man in black and Qi Zhengxiu did not go through the main gate of Taoyuan, but pried open the east door of the empty garrison and walked out of Huayue Fang.

Under the tree in the dark night, a carriage was parked, Qi Zhengxiu strode towards the carriage with Xiao Tao in his arms, but just as he was about to raise the curtain, dozens of armor-wrapped soldiers surrounded him from the mouth of the alley, and the leader hugged Qi Zhengxiu with a fist: "My lord, the prince is worried about the girl's injury, please take the girl to the prince's mansion for treatment." ”

Qi Zhengxiu smiled faintly, the prince still had reservations about him after all. Qi Zhengxiu did not refuse, got into the carriage and followed the soldiers back to Li Congjia's mansion.

Murong Yanzhao immediately pleaded guilty to the crown prince the next day, claiming that he had accidentally killed the dancing girl of Huayuefang by mistake after drinking last night, and had sent an urgent letter to the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty to inform him.

The Southern Tang Dynasty was already a vassal state of the Great Song Dynasty, and Murong Yanzhao was a noble general of the Great Song Dynasty, and what he shot was just a small dancing girl, Li Congjia naturally couldn't cure Murong Yanzhao's crime. But he didn't let go easily, just said lightly: "Let's wait for Emperor Song's instructions." At the moment, it is still aggrieved that the general should not move around in the post house. ”

Murong Yanzhao's mission has been completed, and there is no objection to Li Congjia's handling. I went back to the post house and didn't go out again. Li Congjia sent soldiers to surround the post house tightly and forbade anyone to enter or leave.

A few days later, Zhao Kuangyin sent a letter of state to Nantang, in addition to interceding for Murong Yanzhao, he also sent dozens of cars of gold, silver and jewelry, and twenty dancing girls. With twenty to pay one, Zhao Kuangyin also gave a lot of face. It's just that Zhao Kuangyin also added another sentence in the national letter: "This matter is ugly and not suitable for the public." ”

Li Congjia pinched Zhao Kuangyin's secret letter, and couldn't help but smile at his staff member Shen Tong: "He's also afraid of being embarrassed? ”

Shen Tong thought for a while and shook his head and said, "One is afraid of being embarrassed, and the other is probably afraid that Zhao Guangyi will know and blame him." I heard that Zhao Guangyi refused to send Miss Peach back. ”

Li Congjia let out an "oh" and looked at the secret letter thoughtfully. After thinking for a long time, he said to Shen Tong: "I ordered someone to place all the people who served Miss Tao in Huayuefang that night." It is enough to say that people have died of a violent illness. ”

Shen Tong asked, "What about Honggu?" ”

Li Congjia's expression was still faint: "She has been in Huayuefang for too long, she should have changed it a long time ago." Give the pen a security fee and transfer to the Huanyi Bureau. ”

Shen Tongying paused, and said to Li Congjia: "Prince, Lord Qi, can you really hold him hostage by leaving Miss Peach in the mansion?" ”

Li Congjia shook his head: "But we only have this chess piece, don't we?" After that, Li Congjia took out a jade peach with a very rough carving from the drawer of the rosewood frame in front of him, touched the simple and stiff pattern lines on it, and Li Congjia put it back in the drawer. Since he was able to use this jade peach to subdue Qi Zhengxiu, leaving Xiao Tao in the mansion would inevitably be able to hold him hostage.

Murong Yanzhao and the envoy Mu Shen returned to the Great Song Dynasty unharmed. Huayuefang changed people from top to bottom overnight. Honggu went to the Huanyi Bureau, Xiuju went to the Silk and Bamboo Department of the teaching workshop, and the rest of the subordinates were also transferred a lot. Forsythia, who was lazy only in front of Xiao Tao, was sent to serve elsewhere because he didn't know it. Huayuefang sent a new head Yueniang to take charge of daily affairs.

Xiao Tao woke up again, and what caught her eye was the lady with red and swollen crying eyes, Xiao Tao pinched her face hard, almost thinking it was a dream. When I found out that it was not a dream, I pulled the lady hard, and tears had already flowed out unconsciously. was so anxious that the lady hurriedly shouted: "Don't be so strong, carefully collapse the wound." ”

After speaking, he hurriedly pressed Xiao Tao in place, and smiled while wiping his tears: "I know you must think it's a dream." I'll tell you, it's not a dream. This is the Prince's Mansion. Lord Qi has settled you here, and we will be able to see each other every day in the future. Speaking of the back, the tears of the lady couldn't be stopped. For many years, she never dreamed that there would be this day. She can be with Xiao Tao again, day and night. But life's chances are so wonderful.

"What about Gongzi Qi?" Xiao Tao asked hurriedly.

"He was there for the first two days. Seeing that you are fine, I rushed back to Nanchang Mansion today. Come back in two days. The lady replied while bringing the decoction from the table next to her for Xiao Tao to take, and brought her sugar water, "It must be bitter." Drink this quickly. ”

Xiao Tao's tears rolled down, how long has it been since no one has been so kind to herself? Xiao Tao hugged the kiln girl and cried silently.

The lady hugged Xiao Tao tightly, and said with a smile: "God has finally opened his eyes." Now you are a blessing in disguise. Those people in the Great Song Dynasty made bad things out of it, which just allowed you to be liberated. The prince has commanded him to go down, and he said, "You are sick." Now there is no such person as you in Huayuefang. "Lady Niang has never dared to have such a dream, the prince, Qi Gongzi, Xiao Tao and her are all together, her most cherished person, Xiao Tao's most cherished person, all together.

Xiao Tao quickly returned to reality after crying and laughing, since she had already escaped from Huayuefang, why was she in the Prince's Mansion at the moment, but not with Qi Gongzi? It stands to reason that she was here.
