Chapter 56 Tears of self-blame
"Okay, I got it." Dongfang Xiaozhu said with anger.
"Hmph, it's good that the princess knows, I hope the princess will think about it, whether the prince is healthy or not, it depends on whether the princess is obedient." The guard had no choice but to let go when he saw Dongfang Xiaozhu's move, and turned his head to threaten Dongfang Xiaozhu.
After speaking, he left, leaving only Gonggong Qiu and Dongfang Xiaozhu standing in place, and those palace maids and eunuchs were guarding not far away.
"These people, really, really !!" Gonggong Qiu was so angry that he couldn't speak.
Dongfang Xiaozhu clutched the dress tightly in her hand, and the tears in her eyes couldn't stop flowing down.
"Gong, princess, don't cry, maybe, maybe the blood stains on this are not His Highness, but they are using them to scare us."
Seeing Dongfang Xiaozhu crying, Father-in-law Qiu hurriedly took out a clean handkerchief, gently wiped her tears, and comforted her.
"No, I, I can feel it, it's my brother's blood, we're twins, I'm most familiar with it, they're really, really tortured my brother."
Dongfang Xiaozhu couldn't stop crying as she spoke, and her hand kept stroking the blood marks on her clothes.
"This, what should we do, we can't get out, who will save Your Highness?" Even Dongfang Xiaozhu said this, but Father-in-law Qiu didn't know how to say it, and he himself began to panic.
"I, I don't know." Dongfang Xiaozhu shook her head, took her clothes and walked into the hall in despair.
Father-in-law Qiu walked in uneasily, and saw her sitting on the bed, Father-in-law Qiu knew that she needed to be alone now, so he put down the tent outside.
Then he sat on the threshold outside the temple, secretly weeping.
Dongfang Xiaozhu, who was sitting on the bed, was a little helpless at this time, she didn't know what to do, she could only hold on to her clothes tightly, smelling the smell on the clothes and reassuring.
Since she was a child, her brother has been in front of her, everyone spoils her, even Han Yu protects her, no matter how high she cultivates, she is also a helpless girl at this time.
Now that Dongfang Mirror is controlled by the third prince, she can't get out herself, and the people outside don't know if she can come in, she doesn't have the ability to rush out. She regretted that she couldn't even save her brother if something happened to him, and without her brother and Han Yu's protection, she would be nothing.
The more I thought about her, the more sad I felt, the more I felt that I was a waste, and I couldn't even protect my brother, who used to protect her so much, but now I can't do that with my brother.
She hugged Dongfang Mirror's clothes and cried, and the hall was full of her whimpering cries. Father-in-law Qiu heard her cry outside, and lowered his head sadly.
No, it can't be like this, if even they give up, then what will Your Highness do? Gonggong Qiu suddenly raised his head at this time, he looked around cautiously, stood up quietly, and walked to the back of the dormitory with his waist bent.
Before you know it, night falls, and in a rather desolate backyard of the East Palace, a man and a woman stand by the wall.
"Father-in-law Qiu, the slave and maid really can't do it, the people sent by the third prince will surround the entire East Palace tightly, and the slave and maid can't get out at all, Father-in-law Qiu, don't embarrass the slave and maid." The woman pleaded with the man standing in front of her.
The man is the autumn father-in-law, and the woman is a sprinkling maid of the East Palace.
"Embarrassed? My father-in-law just asked you to go out and send a letter to Young Master Han, why did it make you embarrassed, our family can't get out, otherwise it will still bother you. You are a palace maid in the East Palace here, when did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the princess treat you badly, your family was seriously ill at the beginning, if it wasn't for the prince's kindness, he promised to treat your family with silver, you can do your filial piety for your family, now it's just such a small thing, you can't do it, are you worthy of His Royal Highness's great kindness to you? ”
Gonggong Qiu suppressed his throat and said to the palace maid.
"But the slave really can't get out." The palace maid said in an embarrassed tone
"Then you don't need to worry, but you take the princess's clothes to the Huanyi Bureau, just find a chance to go to the south gate, find a person guarding the door, that person has a scar on his face, you just need to tell him, find someone to save the princess, you don't need to worry about the rest of the matter, stay in the Huanyi Bureau, no one will suspect you as a palace maid."
Father-in-law Qiu told his plan and pleaded with her.
"Let's try this, slave and maid." Hearing Gonggong Qiu say this, the palace maid also hesitated.
After all, what Father-in-law Qiu said was right, if it weren't for the prince's benevolence and kindness, he would have no home for his family, and every festival, the prince would reward them with these palace maids, eunuchs and eunuchs, give them vacations, and let them go home to visit relatives.
So this time, she wants to risk her death to do something for the official office of the autumn prince, and it is also for His Royal Highness the Prince.
"Okay, if it is done, when His Highness comes back, our family will remember you in front of His Highness, you don't need to worry, you are not noticeable, and no one will doubt you."
"Yes, the slave is gone." After speaking, the palace maid retreated.
After the palace maid retreated, Gonggong Qiu also hurriedly left, first took a look at the probe, saw that there was no one around, and left here briskly.
After the two left, a gust of wind blew, and a whining sound sounded in the courtyard, which seemed even more desolate.
After Gonggong Qiu returned to the dormitory, he first went to the kitchen to get a pot of tea, then slowly walked to the door of the palace, and waited for a while before knocking lightly on the door.
"Father-in-law Qiu, I don't know where Father-in-law Qiu just went?" This is a man from nowhere, standing behind him and suddenly making a noise, startling him.
"Eh! It turned out to be the lackey of the third prince, hmph, our family saw that the princess was lacking, so I went to get a pot of flower tea for the princess, what, do you want to take a look at it too? After Gonggong Qiu was startled, he said angrily, and deliberately sent the teapot to this person's eyes.
"The mother has an order, the princess is not allowed to eat anything except for three meals." Unexpectedly, this man directly reached out and took the teapot.
"You !!" Seeing him so arrogant, Father-in-law Qiu glared at him angrily.
"Please also ask the public security to share some, otherwise the father-in-law is afraid that he will have to go to the dungeon." When the man had threatened him, he went to the side and hid in the shadows.
Although Father-in-law Qiu was angry, it was not the time at this time, he was hiding there, no wonder he didn't see it just now.
Grandpa Qiu glared at him, pushed the door in, and then closed the door again.
The person who hid in the dark looked at the back of Gonggong Qiu, and felt that he could not take it lightly, so he made a seal in his hand, passed on the law with spirit, and told the guards around the third prince: The great eunuch of the East Palace is not honest, and he is afraid of accidents, and he hopes that His Royal Highness will strengthen his inspection!
After the summons was delivered, the man stood in the shadows, staring at the palace in front of him, as he had done before.
And Gonggong Qiu, who entered the palace, walked lightly outside the tent and shouted softly: "Princess, princess!" ”
"Come in." After a while, Dongfang Xiaozhu's voice came from inside, but there was crying in the voice, crying for a long time, and some hoarseness.
Father-in-law Qiu lifted the tent, stood in front of the bed, and saw Dongfang Xiaozhu sitting on the bed in a daze, still holding the prince's clothes tightly in his hands.
"Princess, the slave has just found a palace maid who sprinkled and swept, and has asked her to find the soldiers at the south gate, the prince has been kind to him, as long as he knows, he will definitely help us find Young Master Han, and then Young Master Han will definitely come to save the princess." Princess. Don't be too sad, if you cry for a long time, it won't look good, the princess has such a beautiful face, you can't be hurt. ”
Father-in-law Qiu lowered his voice and explained his plan just now, and comforted her.
