Chapter 240: Advance and Retreat
"Fell off a cliff?" Xiao Lingjiang raised his eyebrows, "This is too coincidental." ”
Well, who will assassinate Yongmu? And the few people who followed behind her who were not related to the division happened to be gone.
She entered the palace with this prescription to prove that Yongmu was now taken away by Mei's Cen Niang, and in another place, Yongmu went out of the city and encountered assassins, and his whereabouts were unknown after falling off the cliff.
He Zheng also frowned and said, "My subordinates suspect that this so-called assassination is not so simple. ”
Xiao Lingjiang rubbed his eyebrows and sighed softly: "It's just a play that she directed and acted herself." It's a pity that the people who don't have a chance......"
The group of assassins was going towards Yongmu on the surface, but in fact, the butcher knife was actually swinging at them who were secretly following Yongmu.
Xiao Lingjiang's eyes were slightly cold: "What's going on outside?" ”
He Zheng said: "When the family reported to the official, they didn't hide it, and they thought that Princess Yongmu would soon become known about the fall off the cliff. Commander Wu De Si Chen heard the news and took people to look for it......"
Xiao Lingjiang whispered "um": "Chen Nie is probably going to return in vain this time." ”
The water under the cliff is turbulent, and now it is winter, and it is not easy to find someone. What's more, that person also deliberately set up a bureau, so that people can't find him if he wants to disappear.
Yesterday, the emperor passed Yongmu into the palace, if she did what she said, she might not be able to escape the joint temptation of Xiao Lingjiang and Yuan Buxi. But if you don't enter the palace or flee directly, it is a disguised possibility of taking away.
This time, it can be described as a dilemma.
However, now this disappearance has suddenly turned into a situation that can be advanced and retreated.
No matter how suspicious the emperor was in his heart, such things could not be made public until they were proven. Otherwise, the dignified princess of Da Zhou was taken away and occupied, once the world heard about it, it may cause some kind of discussion and chaos.
Yongmu was assassinated and then fell off the cliff, which can be regarded as avoiding the immediate danger for the time being.
Her disappearance is justified. As for the future, when the timing is right, she can still take advantage of this reason to return suddenly and unharmed.
After all, it's such a thing as falling off a cliff, whether it's life or death, no one can say. Anyway, what if she had another adventure?
Xiao Lingjiang sneered in her heart, it was really good, even if she ran, she left a way out for herself.
However, since Yongmu has set up a situation of disappearance and made everyone know about it, it seems that no matter how he goes to heaven and earth to find her, it seems that it is not too much.
After all, this is the eldest princess of Da Zhou.
Xiao Lingjiang got up and went to find Yuan Buxi, discussed the matter with him, and arranged the funeral of the colleague who unfortunately died with everyone in the division, and then returned to the mansion.
Tomorrow is Chinese New Year's Eve, but as soon as this incident comes out, this New Year's Pass, whether inside or outside the palace, I am afraid it will not be so easy.
The lanterns on the verandah in the house have been lit, the candles are flickering, and the light and shadow reflected on the ground are also dancing slightly.
Suddenly, a cold wind blew, Xiao Lingjiang only felt a chill on her face, she looked up, and saw snow white in the air fluttering down.
"It's snowing!" She narrowed her eyes slightly, and after a moment of pause, she continued on her way.
Back in her courtyard, Qiong Zhi hurriedly stepped forward to take the clothes on her body, and whispered, "Princess, Pei Shizi is here." ”
The relationship between their own princess and Pei Shizi is also known to the people around them, and now it is not strange. Pei Shizi came to look for the princess, and if he caught up with her and happened to be away, he just took him to the study temporarily.
"Okay." Xiao Lingjiang turned around and arrived in front of the study.
The room was brightly lit, and she pushed the door open and stepped in, the warm yellow candlelight shining all over her skirt.
In front of the low table by the window sat a familiar figure, looking up at her when he heard the movement, and smiling softly at her.
Somehow, some of the cold hearts that had come all the way from the cold wind seemed to be covered and became warm and ironed.
"Cold, huh? Come and warm up with a cup of tea. Pei You lifted the teapot and poured hot tea for her.
Xiao Lingjiang walked over, sat down opposite the low table, and took the transparent celadon cup, the heat of the tea passed through the wall of the cup to her fingertips.
She lowered her head and took a sip, and couldn't help but sigh pleasantly.
"How? My new tea tastes good, right? Pei You looked at the smile on her face, his eyes gentle.
Xiao Lingjiang nodded: "It's good." Could it be that you came tonight to bring tea to me? ”
Pei You smiled and pointed to the tea pot next to him: "The tea has been prepared for you." ”
He looked at Xiao Ling Jiang Wan'er's appearance, took her hand, and sighed: "Auntie, you went to Chizhou and got injured, why didn't you tell me?" ”
Xiao Lingjiang said helplessly: "Did that guy tell you about it?" ”
As a ghost of Huang's father, Qi Kuo has no close friends, and the only people who can talk and laugh with him are her and Pei You.
When he went out, he either stayed in her bag or followed her in human form, but when he was in the mansion, he could come and go freely, and occasionally even sneaked into Pei You's mansion to hang out.
Except for the big mouth of the ruler, no one else dares to say what she wants to hide.
"I'm fine, don't worry." Xiao Lingjiang patted his hand, then leaned over and gently dropped a kiss on the corner of his lips.
"Isn't it good now? That's it. ”
Pei You chased after him and deepened the kiss.
After a kiss, he said, "I have already sent a letter to Doctor Xue Lao Dan and asked him to come to Yingdu." Your current body, repeatedly injured, is always very worrying. ”
"Okay, okay, I'll take notice. You, obviously a handsome young man, always have to be like an old man, worrying all day long. Xiao Lingjiang smiled in his eyes, raised his head and stroked his forehead, "Look, if this eyebrow is still locked, it will be wrinkled in the future." ”
Pei You looked down into her eyes: "If I have wrinkles, do you still dislike me?" ”
"Not necessarily." Xiao Lingjiang blinked mischievously, "There are so many beautiful young people in the world, if you become an old man, I can't guarantee that I won't empathize with you." ”
Pei You immediately stretched her eyebrows when she heard this, and a handsome face was getting closer and closer to her.
He lowered his head, put his forehead against Xiao Lingjiang's forehead, and muttered, "How can others in the world be like me, know you and understand you?" Auntie, I have become an old man, and I am also the best-looking old man in the world. You only look at me as one? ”
"I'm kidding you." Xiao Ling Jiang snorted, hugged his neck and raised his head to peck the corner of his mouth, "As far as I am concerned, everyone in the world is not as good as Ah Pei." ”
If she really would be easily tempted by others, she would not have met Pei You in circles for more than 20 years.
Hearing this, Pei You's eyes were filled with smiles.
