Chapter 199: Arrival in Fengdu
Everyone looked back and saw Concubine Jing walking slowly in plain clothes with Buddha beads in her hand.
"I've seen Concubine Jing."
Concubine Jing glanced at these people coldly and shouted, "Don't retreat yet." ā
"Yes."
Li Man looked at Concubine Jing unconvinced, "What is Concubine Jing going to do?" ā
"I happened to be chanting in a nearby Buddhist hall when I heard the commotion here and came to take a look."
After speaking, Concubine Jing fell her gaze on Ah Yao, "This is Ah Yao?" ā
"If Concubine Hui Jing is going to be Ah Yao."
"The emperor just found you back in the palace, and you were bullied, you are too angry with the emperor." Concubine Jing said quietly.
Li Man raised his chin and replied, "What does Concubine Jing mean by this?" Where did I bully her? Besides, did you see me bullying her? ā
Concubine Jing smiled and asked, "I haven't said who bullied her, so you can't wait to jump out and admit it?" Do you count this as a self-confession? ā
"You ......"
Li Man's little face instantly turned blue and white because of Concubine Jing's words.
Ah Yao saw that Concubine Jing was here to help her, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
However, she had some doubts in her heart, according to what Concubine Xiao said before, as well as Concubine Jing's own performance, Concubine Jing really hated Soho, so why did she help herself?
Seeing that Li Man was speechless, Concubine Jing shouted coldly: "Don't take your people with you and leave quickly!" Are you planning for me to bring the emperor here and let the emperor see with his own eyes how you bully A-Yao? ā
Li Man snorted coldly and left with a puff of air.
After watching Li Man walk away, Ah Yao hurriedly came to Concubine Jing, "Thank you Concubine Jing for speaking for me just now." ā
Concubine Jing glanced at her lukewarmly, and sneered: "As Soho's daughter, you are still being bullied like this, you are really embarrassed to Soho." ā
After leaving these words, Concubine Jing walked away.
Ah Yao left the palace in a hurry in a daze.
As agreed in advance, she waited near the palace gate.
About two hours later, Rose came out with Lan Xin.
After the convergence, she looked around cautiously and asked in a low voice, "No one noticed you, did they?" ā
"Nope." Rose Road.
"Then let's go."
As for the rest of the matter, just leave it to Rose, she has been in the palace for many years, and this little thing can be settled.
After saying goodbye to Rose, Ah Yao took Lan Xin back to the Yuelai Inn, and placed her in her room for easy care.
After regaining her life, Lan Xin knelt at Ah Yao's feet in gratitude.
"Thank you Miss A-Yao for saving your life, I will be your person from now on."
She helped Lan Xin up, "Get up first." ā
"I'd like to ask Miss A-Yao to do me another favor."
"You say."
"I don't want the baby in my belly, I want to beat him."
"You've really figured it out?" Yao asked.
Lan Xin nodded.
"Okay, then I'll go out and buy you medicine now."
ā¦ā¦
On the path outside Fengdu City in southern Xinjiang, a horse-drawn carriage slowly drove forward.
The eldest lady in the carriage clasped her hands together uneasily, and dense beads of sweat continued to appear on her forehead, since she heard Song Yi say that Fengdu was in front of her, her whole person seemed a little uneasy.
Rong Qianhan looked at the eldest lady who was getting more and more nervous expressionlessly, and asked, "What are you nervous about?" ā
"I ......"
The eldest lady moved her lips, and her palms became sweaty.
"Are you from Fengdu?" Rong Qianhan asked again.
"I'm not."
The eldest lady didn't think about it, and immediately refuted.
Judging from the accent, she is indeed not from Fengdu, but seems to be from Kyoto.
"Then you are so afraid to come to Fengdu because there are your enemies here?"
"It's not."
The eldest lady denied it several times, so that Rong Qianhan had no patience to continue asking, and then turned her head to look outside the carriage.
"Master, we're going to Fengdu soon." Song Yidao.
"Hmm."
The eldest lady hesitated for a long time, pursed her lips and asked, "Can you enter Fengdu City one day later?" ā
"Why?"
"Because ......"
The eldest lady hesitated for a long time before continuing: "Because I have enemies in Fengdu. ā
"Enemies?"
The eldest lady nodded and asked cautiously, "Is it okay?" ā
Rong Qianhan hesitated for a moment, "Yes." ā
"Thank you, boy."
Rong Qianhan said to Song Yi outside the carriage: "Find a place to rest outside Fengdu City and enter the city tomorrow." ā
"Okay."
The next day, as soon as A-Yao left the inn, a carriage stopped at the door of the Yuelai Inn.
Song Yi looked at the inn and turned back to ask Rong Qianhan happily.
"Master, there is a Jiayuelai Inn here, are we going to live here?"
Rong Qianhan lifted the carriage curtain and looked at the words "Yuelai Inn".
When they went to Suicheng, the inn where they stayed was also called this name, and when he saw the familiar words, he seemed to have returned to that time.
"Just stay here."
Without waiting for Rong Qianhan to speak first, the eldest lady in the carriage spoke first.
They came all the way to Fengdu, and the eldest lady never took the initiative to talk to them, and this was the first time she took the initiative to put forward her ideas.
Rong Qianhan glanced at the eldest lady and asked, "Do you know this inn?" ā
"No, I don't know."
"Then why do you have to live here?"
"I think this inn is special, so I ......"
Rong Qianhan saw that the eldest lady was hiding it, but he did not expose the eldest mother, because even if the eldest lady didn't speak, he had already thought about staying in this inn.
"Just live here." Rong Qian said.
"Okay."
Song Yi stopped the carriage steadily, and Rong Qianhan got off the carriage first.
The eldest lady rubbed in the carriage for a while, and finally wrapped her head in a headscarf, revealing a pair of eyes, before she was willing to get out of the carriage.
Seeing this, Song Yi was puzzled and asked, "Auntie, what are you doing?" ā
"IāI'm not feeling well, I don't want the wind to blow."
Song Yi didn't think much about it.
Rong Qianhan didn't have the heart to ask more.
The three of them entered the inn before and after.
The shopkeeper greeted him warmly, "Are the guests staying in the hotel, or are they ......?"
"Stay!" Rong Qian said.
"Okay, the little one will take you upstairs."
"Hmm."
The shopkeeper took Rong Qianhan and a few people upstairs and arranged three rooms for them.
Seeing that the eldest lady kept looking at the other side, the shopkeeper asked curiously, "What is this eldest lady looking at?" ā
"Is that room over there occupied?"
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "It's really not a coincidence, that room is already occupied." ā
The eldest lady said "oh" and didn't ask any more.
Before retracting her gaze, the eldest lady reluctantly glanced at the room.
"This is the room for a few of you, and if you have something, you can call it small."
"Hmm."
After the shopkeeper arranged them properly, he went downstairs.
As soon as Song Yi wanted to say something to the eldest mother, he saw the eldest lady hurriedly go back to her room, and specially told them before entering.
"I want to go back and rest, you don't have to call me when you eat, I'm not hungry for the time being."
Seeing the eldest lady close the door, Song Yi asked curiously: "This eldest lady's behavior is too strange, she shouldn't be some kind of spy or something, right?" ā
"Did you see the spies hanging themselves from a tree?" Rong Qianhan asked rhetorically.
Song Yi laughed dryly and followed Rong Qianhan into the room.
"Isn't this a guess on the part of my subordinates?"
Rong Qianhan sat down in the room and instructed in a deep voice: "Go and find out A-Yao's whereabouts." ā
"Yes."
Song Yi left the inn and went straight to the gate of the palace, like the people at the gate of the palace to inquire about the news.
ā¦ā¦
Ah Yao stayed in the palace all day and left the palace in the evening.
When she came out of the palace, Song Yi, who was guarding the palace gate to inquire about the news, had already returned to the inn.
As soon as Rong Qianhan and Song Yi left the inn, she returned to the inn.
Perfect miss on both sides!
The shopkeeper smiled and stepped forward to greet her, "Miss A-Yao is back." ā
"Hmm."
After a brief chat with the shopkeeper, A-Yao went upstairs and went back to her room.
Before the inn closed, Rong Qianhan and Song Yicai returned to the inn.
The two instinctively thought that Ah Yao lived in the palace, so they didn't inquire about anything outside, and even the innkeeper didn't ask.
When the shopkeeper saw that they were back, he immediately greeted them with a smile.
"The two sons came back in time, and the shop was just about to close."
Rong Qianhan glanced at the shopkeeper and didn't say much.
However, the shopkeeper seemed to see that the two of them had something on their minds, and asked: "The little one seems to be very busy when he sees the two sons, can the little one help the two?" ā
Rong Qianhan raised his eyes, thought for a while, and asked, "Is there one more princess in Southern Xinjiang?" ā
The shopkeeper thought carefully and shook his head at them.
"You're thinking about it." Song Yidao.
The shopkeeper looked embarrassed, "There are only two princesses in Southern Xinjiang, and I haven't heard of one more princess." ā
"Looks like he doesn't know." Song Yi whispered to Rong Qianhan.
Rong Qianhan didn't ask any more questions, and took steps upstairs.
The shopkeeper shouted at the backs of the two, "What do the two guest officers need?" ā
"No, I don't."
"Okay."
Rong Qianhan and Song Yi each went back to their rooms.
This night, A-Yao tossed and turned in her room and couldn't sleep.
It's been several days since she entered the palace, and not only did she not find any useful clues, but she was also regarded as a thorn in Riemann's side, and she had to be found by Riemann from time to time.
Seeing that she kept turning over, Lan Xin couldn't help but ask: "Is Miss A-Yao on her mind?" ā
Anyway, she couldn't sleep, so she simply got up and lit the lamp, and chatted with Lan Xin.
"Do you know the three concubines in the palace?" Yao asked.
Lan thought for a while and said, "There are three concubines in the palace, Concubine Xiao, Concubine Wan and Concubine Jing.
Concubine Xiao is gentle on the surface, but she is a femme fatale behind her back, and she has been secretly competing with the other two concubines.
Concubine Jing is devoted to the Buddha, rarely interacts with people on weekdays, and rarely hears about her.
Concubine Wan has an excellent temperament, and the two children who have been taught are also good, I often hear the palace people praise Concubine Wan in private, and the emperor also praises Concubine Wan, and I love to go to Concubine Wan on weekdays. ā
"Do you know their attitude towards Soho?" A-Yao asked again.
"I have heard people mention that Concubine Wan and Soho are very good friends, Concubine Xiao is lukewarm to Soho, Concubine Jing is the person who dislikes Soho the most, and when the emperor was still a prince, Concubine Jing objected to them being together."
"Why does Concubine Jing object to them being together?"
It is taboo for women to be jealous, even if ordinary women don't want their husbands to marry other women, they will only hold it in their hearts, and there are very few people like Concubine Jing who speak out against it.
