Chapter 178: The Storm is Coming

"Come in."

Jiang Huaiyin responded quickly, so that Murong Xi didn't even have a chance to regret it.

The moment she hesitated, the door suddenly opened, and she was greeted by a white figure.

Jiang Huaiyin looked at her with a smile, "What?" ”

Murong Ji: ......

It was the third chapter of her covenant last night, which stipulated that before he remarried her, the relationship between the two should be like normal people, keeping a distance-

"Egret resting in my room, I-"

Murong Xi was still thinking about how to explain, she didn't want to admit that she missed him, but Jiang Huaiyin didn't give her a chance at all, her slender arms were like a spirit snake, and she suddenly circled her into the room.

As soon as the person stood firm, dense thin kisses began to slide down her forehead.

All the way down.

A familiar warm current surged through his body, and Murong Xi suddenly smiled, raised his hand around him, and deepened the kiss.

Each other's breathing was blocked to the point of reluctance to separate.

Jiang Huaiyin hugged her in her arms, lowered her eyes and asked, "How is the leg?" ”

"It's just a skin injury, don't worry too much about it." Murong Xi has already seen the wound, but fortunately, it is non-toxic, and after simple treatment, as long as it is not strenuous exercise, it is harmless.

"Should I go back to Beijing as soon as possible?"

At this time, it should not have left the sphere of influence of King Zhenbei.

If the delay continues, presumably the people of the king of Zhenbei will soon chase after him.

Jiang Huaiyin sent Murong Xi and pulled her to the chair to sit down, "Ye Lan has already gone to prepare the carriage, and Night Blade is going to gather people, and it won't be an hour before it will leave." ”

Murong Xi knew that with Jiang Huaiyin's thoughtful temperament, he would definitely be able to think of what she could think of.

Nodding, Murong Xi got up and said, "The prince hasn't eaten breakfast yet, has he?" I'll go down and tell Xiao Er to prepare some breakfastβ€”"

"Wait." Jiang Huaiyin suddenly became serious, "There is something more important before that. ”

-

Murong Xi didn't expect that the important thing he said was the bed!

At the same time that he was angry that he didn't comply with the rules, his body was very honest and pandering.

A storm in the morning ended before Yelan Nightblade rushed back.

After a simple sleep, plus Murong Xi's medicine has begun to volatilize, Bailu's body is much refreshed.

Seeing Murong Ji's listless appearance, she felt extremely guilty.

Murong Xi lay on the soft collapse of the carriage with her eyes closed, there was no response, and she didn't want to move.

The journey back to Beijing was considered to be dangerous, and almost all of the martial arts masters sent by the King of Zhenbei were numerous.

The occasional sneak attack gradually disappeared as it got closer and closer to the capital.

After returning to Beijing, Jiang Huaiyin sent Murong Xi back to the palace, and he took the eldest prince into the palace non-stop.

Murong Ji couldn't help but be a little worried about Jiang Huaiyin's situation.

For better or worse, the eldest prince is the emperor's concubine after all.

With the queen and Shen Guogong at his back, if the eldest prince really died in the hands of Jiang Huaiyin, presumably the seemingly calm court would set off a gust of wind.

I don't know how long I waited, Jiang Huaiyin's people didn't wait, and an old acquaintance came to the palace.

Mama Yu greeted Murong Fu kindly, "Princess, you can come back, the Queen Mother has been talking about you very much in the past few days." ”

Murong Xi had a bad premonition.

As soon as she returned to Beijing, the Queen Mother learned that she had sent Mama Yu to invite someone, or after Jiang Huaiyin entered the palace-

"Mama came by coincidence, and I also miss the Queen Mother and her old man. I was thinking that this cold would get better, so I went to visit the palace. ”

Murong Xi made a preemptive move and blocked Mama Yu's mouth.

Mama Yu looked at Murong Xi's complexion, and she was indeed a little weak.

But the Queen Mother's order, no matter whether she is dead or alive today, she must "invite" people into the palace.

Mama Yu: "Coincidentally, the head of the Xu Yuan is just going to ask the Queen Mother for peace today, the princess might as well enter the palace and let the head of the Xu Yuan take a look, otherwise the Queen Mother and the old man will not be at ease." ”

Murong Xi's heart fell heavily.

Mama Jade's reaction says it all.

Today's palace is the Longtan Tiger's Den.

She lowered her eyes, "Mama Yu, please wait a moment, Nie'er has just returned to Beijing, and she will come to change her clothes." ”

Mama Yu stood there, nodding with a smile, "You have to get it." ”

Back at the Begonia Residence, the first thing Murong Xi did was to find the string of Buddhist beads, and then inform Rust to inform Jiang Huaiyin of the news.

She would take the egret into the palace, and she also knew that the night blade would follow her in secret, and after doing a little better, she walked out of the main courtyard again, and Murong Xi followed Mama Yu into the palace casually.

At the same time, in the center of the Taihe Palace, lay the dying prince.

Beside her was the trembling queen.

The queen's phoenix crown was crooked, hugged the eldest prince tightly, and stared at Jiang Huaiyin with red eyes, "Jiang Huaiyin, you are so ruthless, what did my emperor do that is intolerable to heaven, and you want you to embarrass him again and again?" ”

The empress's heart-rending cry echoed in the hall, and the emperor in the high position also looked gloomy and terrifying.

The eldest prince is not only his sister-in-law, but also his favorite from childhood to adulthood.

Among the many princes, only the eldest prince has the most energy.

Before he could be relieved from the pain of his broken arm, there was such a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and the emperor couldn't hide his anger, "Ninth brother, should you give me an explanation? ”

"Your Majesty." Jiang Huaiyin's tone was calm, and he looked at the emperor without humility or arrogance, "Jiang Shuqing followed the princess all the way to Jiangnan, and set up an ambush in the middle of the way, trying to plot wrongdoing. Let me ask Your Majesty, the princess was pointed out to the king by the queen mother, but Jiang Shuqing persevered in entanglement, is this trying to lose the face of the king, or not taking the queen mother's decree in his eyes? ”

"It's just an orphan, it's just a woman, and you don't care about Murong Xi at all, why bother looking for such a reasoned reason?" The queen's voice was hoarse, she could feel the breathing of the eldest prince in her arms getting weaker and weaker, and endless fear began to creep into her heart, so much so that she suppressed her fear of Jiang Huaiyin.

"Understood, Hongu understood! Are you afraid that Your Majesty will make the emperor the crown prince, and the power of your brother will take away your rights as regent, yes, it must be so! Your Majesty, Jiang Huaiyin has ill intentions, he intends to seek to usurp the throne, Your Majesty! ”

The Queen's mind had never been clearer.

She used the matter of the eldest prince to tell everyone's doubts hidden in their hearts.

The emperor frowned and glanced at Jiang Huaiyin coldly, "Ninth Brother - the Flying Fish Order is in your hands, I never ask." Now I want to ask, do you really want this throne? ”

"The throne?" The corners of Jiang Huaiyin's lips hooked up a few hints of sarcasm.

"Brother Huang, how did you sit on this dragon chair, you should know better than anyone else, right?"

Some things have been accumulated between the two brothers for too long, so long that both of them rely on this to tell themselves all the time that it is not their siblings who are standing opposite, but enemies!

Jiang Huaiyin walked slowly into the high platform, his eyes were deep, "When my father was alive, I gave the Flying Fish Order to this king, do you know what my father said back then?" ”

"How so?" The Emperor's heart beat faster, he didn't want to hear the real answer, and he was very curious about what kind of person he was in his father's heart.

"My father said that the emperor knows how to forbear, but he is too forbearing, and he is bound everywhere, and he will inevitably be indecisive after ascending the throne. That's why he handed over the Flying Fish Order to this king, and asked this king to be the executioner of the imperial brother, assist the imperial brother in secret, and consolidate the foundation of the Jiang family! ”
