Chapter 1106: Stormy Night Mountain Temple Robberies the Prince (1)
Xiao Qiaoshi called the nurse and asked her to lead Xiao Yudi back to the Zen courtyard to sleep first.
The nurse held Xiaoyu, walked through the corridor in the temple, and went all the way to the courtyard where Xiao Qiao's family lived.
Xiaoyudi looked at the rain outside the corridor, and looked up at the lanterns falling under the corridor, the lanterns were dimly lit, and the nineteen-petal lotus flowers carved on the railing were full of shadows, and the shadows of the trees in the distance were pitch black, which was very strange.
He was a little scared, hugged the nurse's neck, and said in a milky voice: "Grandma, my aunt's yard is close, shall we go to my aunt's place?" ”
"My little ancestor, it's so late, you should toss less!" The nurse said gently, "The queen mother won't find you when she goes back later, it's time to worry!" ”
Xiaoyudian blinked, and had to hug her neck.
In the darkness, countless black shadows loomed, and the seven or eight palace maids behind the nurse were put down silently, and the cold dagger went around the nurse's neck, and warm blood gushed out.
The little rain touched the wet thing, and looked at it by the dim light of the lantern, and his eyes widened in horror, and before he could call for help, two big palms snatched him away from the grandmother, but in an instant, the black shadows disappeared into the distant woods.
At the same time, Shen Miaoyan was playing chess and talking with Liu Yiyi in the dormitory.
Liu Yiyi landed on the chessboard and said enviously: "Sister Tianjue, in front of the Ten Thousand Bone Tomb today, the words of King Zhennan made the hearts of many girls present!" You are so lucky to marry such a good man! Like me, I don't know what my other half looks like or what kind of talent ......."
Under the dim light, Shen Miaoyan smiled at the corner of her lips, her eyes were full of quiet years, and she picked up a chess piece in her jade hand and landed elegantly on the corner of the chessboard, "How old are you, why did you start to worry about getting married." ”
"I'm not like Sister Tianjue, I can do anything, I'm beautiful, and I have the love of the eldest princess, so I should naturally be worried." Liu Yi leaned on her cheeks and stared at the chessboard for a long time, but she didn't know where to fall, and finally landed in a random position, "Speaking of which, it's good that Sister Tianjue can come back." No matter how good the Great Zhou Emperor is, after all, he can't compare to the King of Zhennan who knows the roots. When my sister and King Zhennan knelt together, they were really talented and beautiful, and they were very right. ”
Shen Miaoyan smiled, looked at the dark night outside the window, and suddenly said, "It's boring to play chess, why don't we go and see the little raindrops?" ”
"Okay!" Liu Yiyi got up with a smile, "I'll call someone to bring the cloak over." ”
The two took their respective maidservants and went to the queen's courtyard together.
Unexpectedly, halfway through, Liu Yiyi screamed violently, hid behind Shen Miaoyan, and pointed forward tremblingly: "Sister Tianjue, look, there are many people lying in that corridor!" ”
Shen Miaoyan looked over and hurriedly stepped forward, but saw blood flowing all over the ground, none of these palace maids were angry!
She recognized one of them at a glance as the nurse of Xiaoyu, and her face suddenly turned pale, "The prince has been robbed!" ”
"What?!" Liu Yiyi shrank and hid in the distance, not daring to step forward.
Shen Miaoyan turned around and said, "You hurry back to your meditation room, I'll go find the imperial brother!" ”
With that, he quickly left.
Liu Yiyi nodded like pounding garlic and ran to her yard in horror.
Shen Miaoyan came to Wei Chengyang's Zen monastery, but he could hear the noise inside, and the ministers were fiercely arguing over the issue of slavery.
She broke in despite the guards' obstruction and whispered in Wei Chengyang's ear.
Wei Chengyang's face changed suddenly, and he said coldly to the ministers who were still arguing: "The crown prince was kidnapped. ”
Everyone in the study froze at the same time, and there was silence for an instant.
Xiao Qiao's face was shocked, and he immediately covered his face with a handkerchief, and his eyes were uncontrollably red: "How could it be ......?"
Wei Chengyang said angrily: "Someone is coming." ”
Several leaders of the secret guards quietly appeared from the corner, and Wei Chengyang ordered: "Send someone to search the temple, and be sure to bring the prince back." ”
As he spoke, he turned to the ministers again, frowned, and said, "And you, immediately send your men to search the temple!" If you find the prince, you will be rewarded! ”
Although the ministers did not understand why the crown prince was abducted, they all immediately solemnly accepted the order.
Just as they were about to withdraw, Shen Miaoyan suddenly spoke: "Slow." ”
"Feng Yi has something to say?" Wei Chengyang's face was scorched, and now it is urgent to find someone, and he really can't delay.
Shen Miaoyan's cold gaze swept over the faces of those ministers one by one, "The crown prince has been kidnapped, and you adults can't escape suspicion." Until you find anyone, you'd better stay here obediently and don't go anywhere. If anything happens to the prince......"
She was surrounded by murderous intent.
The old prime minister Qiao Yilie sneered, "The county lord is so big! Hua Yu is the great-grandson of Benxiang, and Benxiang has no reason to harm him! ”
When the words landed, the others also gossiped, rushing to make it clear that it was impossible for them to do it themselves.
Wei Chengyang was annoyed by their quarrel, and said sharply: "Listen to the county lord!" ”
Seeing that Wei Chengyang supported him, Shen Miaoyan said again: "Brother Huang, please send an order down immediately, if anything happens to the prince, all the ministers present will be buried together." ”
Amber eyes glowed with ice, and her tone was ruthless and cold.
Wei Chengyang was stunned for a moment, and quickly came back to his senses, his cousin was suspecting that there might be family members of these ministers in the murderer.
If this imperial decree reaches the ears of the murderer, the murderer may not dare to act rashly for the sake of his family's lives.
Without the slightest hesitation, he said to the dark guard in a loud voice: "Do what the county lord says!" ”
The ministers present were all in an uproar, and Qiao Yilie took the lead in surrendering: "Your Majesty, this move is inappropriate!" ”
Wei Jinghong also stared at Shen Miaoyan, his eyes were complicated.
"What's wrong?" Wei Chengyang sneered, "How many guards did I bring to Yong'an Temple, but Huayu can still be taken away, it's not the thief's doing, who will it be?!" ”
He seldom got angry, so although the ministers complained, they had to keep silent, secretly complaining that Shen Miaoyan was nosy.
Shen Miaoyan didn't bother to pay attention to their attitudes, and turned to Xiao Qiao, who was crying silently, "The imperial sister-in-law just waits for news here, I will personally find someone, and I will definitely bring the little raindrop back intact!" ”
"I'll go with you!" Xiao Qiaoshi grabbed Shen Miaoyan's sleeve, his eyes full of longing.
Shen Miaoyan pressed her on the chair and gave her a warm smile, "It's dark and the road is slippery, if the imperial sister-in-law goes out, it is inevitable that you will have to send someone to protect you, and there will be even less manpower." ”
Xiao Qiao's naturally knew that he didn't know much kung fu, and his body was not good, and going out would only add to the chaos, where could he help him, so he nodded calmly.
Shen Miaoyan quickly left the temple, only to see that the temple was brightly lit, and the secret guards and guards had already begun to search on a large scale.
She returned to the corridor where the light raindrops had disappeared, and by the light of the lantern, she carefully circled around, noticing a few lines of extremely shallow footprints outside the corridor.
