Chapter 7: The Accident in the Imperial Garden

Princess Qing came alone, and she didn't even bring any of the palace maids who accompanied her. Shu was in a hurry when she came, and kept looking behind her, her face was a little nervous, but she had a mischievous smile on her face, as if she was avoiding someone.

When she saw Jiang Fubai and his party, she didn't even care about etiquette, so she hurriedly hid behind an old tree, and at the same time raised her index finger to silence everyone. Everyone was very curious, but the trail was empty, and after waiting for a long time and not seeing anyone coming, everyone couldn't help but wonder and looked at each other.

Princess Qing was also a little confused, she poked her head out and looked left and right, to make sure that no one was coming around Merlin, her face was slightly disappointed, she stomped a little angrily, her feet were pursed and her lips pursed, and her expression was like a child who didn't get her favorite toy, aggrieved and unwilling.

Everyone in the palace knew that the princess was arrogant and moody, and now she didn't seem to be in a good mood, and it would be bad to be angry with them when they didn't like her. So, Jiang Fubai made a look, and everyone took advantage of her sulking to quietly bypass the side and continue to walk forward.

After walking more than a dozen paces, I suddenly heard an exclamation from behind, which was the voice of the princess.

Jiang Fubai and Zhuang Meiyan turned their heads.

Under the plum tree just now, the princess turned her back to them, covered her face and screamed. And on the tree in front of her, there was a man hanging upside down, his legs hooked on the branches, head and feet, arms wrapped, the man with a butterfly mask on his face, a lazy smile on the corner of his mouth, and some teasing in the corners of his eyes.

The princess covered her face and shrugged her shoulders, as if she was scared to tears.

The man looked at her with great interest, and saw that she had no intention of stopping, so he jumped down from the tree slowly, leaned against the trunk, and said with a smile: "Princess, it is you who said that if you find you, you will win." Since Prince Ben won, isn't it time to go to the horse farm with Prince Ben?"

Princess Qing said angrily: "Don't do it, what if you win? You can talk and don't count, why can't this palace?"

This is Jiang Fubai, and they have already recognized this man as Xiao Xuanchen, the crown prince of Wuyang Kingdom. The palace is the most well-informed, it is said that Princess Qing rode out of the palace a few days ago, and the horses were suddenly frightened and ran wildly, thanks to the rescue of His Royal Highness the Prince of this foreign country, only to save her life.

Now the princess has invited His Royal Highness the Crown Prince into the palace in the name of learning equestrianism, and who doesn't understand the thoughts of the girl in it? So, Jiang Fubai just smiled slightly, pulled Zhuang Meiyan's sleeve and said, "It's none of our business, let's go." ”

Zhuang Meiyan was stunned for a moment, and said back to his senses: "Yes!"

Jiang Fubai saw that she was unsettled, and couldn't help but glance at the two people under the tree.

"Sister, do you know His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"

Zhuang Meiyan looked at the shadows of the trees next to him with a side face, and said, "I don't know each other, it's just a relationship." ”

"I looked at my sister's eyes when she looked at the prince, as if she was familiar with it. Jiang Fubai took her hand and said earnestly: "If it seems to my sister, this prince is more than suave and not stable enough, after all, a woman still has to enjoy the shade under the big tree in her life." Lust decay and love relaxation, no matter how much you like it, there will be a moment of boredom after all, if he is half-hearted, what is the use of pampering you for a while. ”

"Sister, don't blame my sister for being troublesome, my sister is a person who has come over, a man's heart--" Jiang Fubai sighed slightly, as if she had evoked some sad past, and said thoughtfully: "Men's hearts are the most unpredictable, in their eyes, no matter how good a woman is, she can't resist the temptation of power." ”

Zhuang Meiyan's heart was shocked, she always felt that Jiang Fubai seemed to have something to say, she was savoring the meaning of Jiang Fubai's words, a figure around her passed quickly, Jiang Fubai suddenly let out a miserable scream and fell to the ground.

Zhuang Meiyan was taken aback, she hurriedly stepped forward to help Jiang Fubai, who was lying on the ground with a painful face, and at the same time raised her head and stared at the perpetrator of this accident with an angry gaze - Princess Qing, who continued to walk forward as if nothing had happened, just now she rushed recklessly from behind, and knocked Jiang Fubai to the ground.

Princess Qing didn't seem to notice that she had hit someone, she still kept her head down and trotted all the way.

Xiao Xuanchen, who was following behind, stopped, Princess Qing also realized that something was wrong with the situation, she turned her head, glanced at Jiang Fubai who was crooked on the ground, and then shouted at Xiao Xuanchen with a smile: "You hurry up! ”

After that, she walked away.

Xiao Xuanchen frowned slightly, he looked at Jiang Fubai, whose expression was becoming more and more painful, and couldn't help but hesitate. Zhuang Meiyan turned her head and stared at Princess Qing's back, her eyes gloomy.

Qiao'er looked panicked, and asked in a trembling voice: "Niangniang, how are you, Niangniang?" ”

Jiang Fubai's face was pale, pressing her abdomen with one hand, she tried her best to show a bleak smile, looked at Zhuang Meiyan and said, "I'm not in the way." Qiao'er, you send the third lady out of the palace first, don't miss the time to leave the palace. ”

Jiang Fubai only brought Qiao'er with her on this trip, and in her current condition, how could Zhuang Meiyan leave with confidence?

"Sister, don't say anything. Qiao'er, you go to the imperial doctor, and we will send my sister back to the palace. "Zhuang Meiyan doesn't care about theorizing with Princess Qing now, it's still important to take care of her sister.

"Send the third lady out of the palace first. ”

"Go find the Imperial Doctor!"

"But--hey!" Qiao'er looked at her mother in embarrassment, then at Zhuang Meiyan, and finally gritted her teeth and ran out of Merlin.

"Qiao'er!" Jiang Fubai was anxious, holding Zhuang Meiyan's hand and said: "The time has come, you can't stay in the palace, go out quickly, so as not to be questioned." ”

During the dispute, two little eunuchs came over, and they were the two eunuchs who took Zhuang Meiyan into the palace first. They originally came to urge Zhuang Meiyan to leave the palace, but when they saw this situation, they couldn't help but be shocked and looked at each other.

"Niangniang, help Niangniang back to the palace! Is the Imperial Doctor Xuan?" the older one also knew the priorities after all, and hurriedly asked.

Zhuang Meiyan helped Jiang Fubai, trying to help her up from the ground, Jiang Fubai's eyes were slightly closed, sweat was already oozing from her forehead, Zhuang Meiyan was even more anxious, she knew that Jiang Fubai didn't want her to worry so she held on, she must be in pain now.

Jiang Fubai, supported by Zhuang Meiyan and Chunju, barely stood up, and her slightly slumped body trembled. Chunju suddenly exclaimed in surprise and said, "Blood! Oh no, Niangniang is bleeding!"

Zhuang Meiyan saw that Jiang Fubai's lower body was oozing blood, and her trouser legs were already soaked, although she was young, she also knew that this situation was very bad for the fetus, and she immediately panicked. The two eunuchs were also helpless, they would just move around in place, and they couldn't help anything.

A deep voice sounded behind him, "Let me come!"

Zhuang Meiyan suddenly felt a light in his hand, and Jiang Fubai, who was supporting him, had been picked up by someone, Xiao Xuanchen held Jiang Fubai in his arms without any scruples, and at the same time ordered them: "Where is her residence? Send her back to the palace quickly, let the imperial doctor come over for treatment, I'm afraid that this child can't be saved, let Wen Po also come over." In addition, I went to tell His Majesty the Emperor, and said that this lady gave birth ahead of schedule. ”

Under his reminder, the two little eunuchs beside him finally reacted, one of them ran to tell the emperor, and the other led Xiao Xuanchen to Jiang Fubai's palace.

Jiang Fubai was sent back to her residence, and the imperial doctor and Wen Po also arrived in time, so the idlers naturally couldn't go in to accompany her. Zhuang Meiyan and Chunju were stopped outside the hall, her expression was anxious, and she stared nervously at the hall door. Jiang Fubai's painful shouts came from inside, one higher than the other.

Xiao Xuanchen eagerly took Zhuang Meiyan's hand and said in a low voice: "You go quickly, the emperor and the empress will come over to give birth to the concubines, you and I are outsiders, so it is not suitable to stay here." Besides, you still go to the palace to visit, and if you miss the hour and don't leave the palace, you will be imprisoned and questioned. ”

Zhuang Meiyan tried hard to break away from his hand, but how could her strength be as strong as Xiao Xuanchen's! Under Xiao Xuanchen's pull, she was involuntarily dragged away from the palace gate.

Stuffing Zhuang Meiyan into the carriage, Xiao Xuanchen whispered a few words to the two little eunuchs, and at the same time rewarded them with two ingots of gold. These two little eunuchs smiled, Xiao Xuanchen is now a quasi-concubine in the eyes of everyone, and he is generous, who doesn't stutter?

In the end, Xiao Xuanchen opened the door curtain, looked at Zhuang Meiyan, who was pale, and stopped talking, and finally sighed silently and gently lowered the door curtain.

Through the door curtain, the woman inside suddenly asked.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, the little girl has something for you. ”

The voice was cold, and Xiao Xuanchen suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart. The door curtain opened a narrow gap, stretched out a snow-white arm, holding a piece of jade pendant in his hand, the color was bright red, like a cat's pupil, that was the eyes of a snow fox.

Xiao Xuanchen's body was a little stiff, and he stretched out his arm with difficulty to catch the jade pendant, but the slender fingers let go of him step by step, and the jade pendant fell to the ground with a bang, and he couldn't help but be stunned.

The carriage started slowly, the sound of hooves was crisp, and Xiao Xuanchen was left alone in the same place, and in the long corridor, his figure suddenly felt a little lonely.

Chunju didn't dare to speak up, and after a long time, she asked tentatively: "Miss, that jade pendant is your most beloved object, and you have never left it for three years, how did you give it to that prince?"

Zhuang Meiyan was silent.

The slave felt that though the prince had come with the grumpy princess, he did not look like a bad man. He told us to leave the harem, I'm afraid there is another layer of meaning, if the emperor and queen come, they will definitely investigate the matter, if the young lady is outspoken, she will offend the queen, if you let the young lady hide the facts, I am afraid that according to the young lady's temperament, it will not be possible. The slave vaguely felt that he was thinking about the young lady. Chunju has been following her for so many years, and she has more or less guessed a little eyebrow, so she said tactfully.

Zhuang Meiyan didn't answer immediately, and after a while, she breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I know he has a good plan, but I don't accept his affection!"

"In this matter, my Zhuang Meiyan will seek justice in my own way!"

Her voice was not loud, faintly stubbornly fierce.

The Xuanwu Gate of the Imperial Palace, which is the gateway to the outer capital of the harem.

Two light horses stepped out of the wide doorway all the way, led by a woman wearing a fiery red narrow-sleeved shirt and small deerskin boots on her feet, it was the heroic princess Duanmu Qing of the unequaled country, followed by Xiao Xuanchen. Both horses are extremely fast, up and down, basically going hand in hand.

Duanmuqing was determined to be faster than Xiao Xuanchen, and kept pumping the leather whip, urging the horse forward again and again.

A petite figure suddenly appeared in the middle of the road, firmly blocking in front of Duanmuqing's horse, Xiao Xuanchen caught a glimpse of the familiar figure, and his brows couldn't help frowning even tighter.

What the hell does this girl want?
