Chapter 285: You Come and I Go
Noon on the second day.
The carriage carrying the crown prince and the crown princess, surrounded by the black armor guards, drove into the city gate and returned to the Yunjiang Palace.
Xu was Shen Lingxi who had been a ghoul before, and he had been doing it for too long and hadn't slept either.
Since she returned to this body, she has been able to sleep without knowing anyone as long as she has a pillow on it.
Naturally, I missed it, and when Chu Yan took her wrapped in a brocade quilt out of the carriage in front of Mu Huai'an, the two of them fought with each other's eyes.
By the time Shen Lingxi woke up again, it was already dusk again.
The news of the death of the ancestor of Zhenguo Gong has naturally spread to the Yunjiang Palace.
Along with it, there was also the news that the Duchess of Zhenguo, Cao, had poisoned her mother-in-law.
Night was falling.
Shen Lingxi changed into a Taoist robe, followed Chu Yan, and took a carriage to the Zhenguo Mansion.
Yun Yu and Mu Huai'an also went with them.
Yun Yu was in the same car with Chu Yan and Shen Lingxi.
Mu Huai'an rode on a horse, and through the curtain, he told Shen Lingxi about the current situation in the Zhenguo Mansion:
"The people in the Zhenguo Mansion all said that the ancestor and the Duchess of the country were not in harmony because of the death of the second master Xu, Xu Yuanshan. The old ancestor has always wanted to drive the Cao family out of the mansion. The old ancestor made a fuss in front of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince yesterday, and the Cao family was resentful, so he simply poisoned the old ancestor's food. ”
"After Cao's poisoning, he was panicked, and he was afraid that the East Window incident would affect a pair of children, so he also took the poison."
"Now that the ancestor has no skills to return to the sky, he has swallowed his breath, and the Cao family still has a breath, but he is still unconscious, and the imperial doctor said that eighty percent of them cannot be saved, even if they are saved, they will be a stupid person in the future."
"Zhen Guogong was grief-stricken, and he kept standing in front of the corpse of his ancestor, not eating, drinking, or talking."
"The affairs of the house are all taken care of by Xu Yuanshan's widow, the second wife Li, ......"
When Shen Lingxi heard this, his apricot eyes were slightly raised, and the corners of his lips hooked up a playful arc.
"What about the corpse of the ancestor? Have you ever tested it? What kind of poison is it? She asked.
Chu Yan also raised his eyes, and looked at Mu Huai'an coldly.
If his eyes could be used as a knife, Mu Huai'an's face would have been marked with several bloody cuts a long time ago.
Mu Huai'an seemed to have a big heart, and he didn't perceive the danger at all.
He sat on the horse with a straight body, and his face was expressionless and businesslike.
"I haven't tested it." He replied: "The prince of Zhenguo guards the ancestors, and he doesn't dare to get close. Cao is only in a coma, the person is not dead, and the pretense cannot be tested. The doctor couldn't find out what kind of poison he had been infected. ”
Shen Lingxi thought of what the ancestor told her last night, and when she heard the scene in the mansion now, she couldn't help but laugh.
When Mu Huai'an saw her like this, with his understanding of her, he immediately guessed the strangeness.
"Is there a problem with the town of the country?" He asked.
Shen Lingxi smiled silently.
Mu Huai'an's eyes showed a sudden look, "Are you going to deal with him tonight?" ”
"He's the Duke of Zhenguo, not Xiao Rui." Shen Lingxi reminded: "This matter has to be listened to by His Highness." ”
Speaking of which, on the day of the canonization ceremony, Mu Huaian broke in single-handedly and shot Xiao Rui, not arranged by Chu Yan and her.
Shen Lingxi also learned later that on the day she entered the city, Mu Huaian once said to her, "Xiao Rui, there is no need to be polite to him, his life will not live long anyway." What does that mean.
Long before she and Chu Yan arrived in Yunjiang, Mu Huai'an had already conspired with Yun Yu to kill Xiao Rui after the canonization ceremony.
It's just that the time was right that day, so I started in advance.
It is precisely because of this that Shen Lingxi discovered that Yun Yu and Mu Huai'an were somewhat unscrupulously crazy in the realm of Yunjiang.
Although "the generals are outside, the military order is not subject to it." ”
But in front of Chu Yan, a dignified prince, they are really not afraid of death.
Mu Huai'an is afraid of whether he is afraid of death, Yun Yu is not very clear.
Yun Yu was looking at his sister and Mu Huai'an at this moment, and you were talking to me, and the tacit understanding was full of wit.
While looking at His Royal Highness the Prince, the face hidden in the shadow of the carriage was so cold that it was about to bear frost.
Yun Yu only felt like a pins and needles.
Seeing that Shen Lingxi was pulling the topic to the prince, he reminded him in a timely manner: "What my sister said is extremely true, in addition to those guarding the border, there are many of the Xu family troops of Zhenguo Gong who are stationed outside the city. ”
"In the realm of Yunjiang, even if Xiao Rui is alive, it is difficult to compete with the Xu family's army, not to mention that now General Mu has not completely subdued the remnants of the Xiao family. Only His Royal Highness's Black Armor Guard can contain the Xu family...... It depends on what His Highness intends to do. ”
As soon as these words came out, Shen Lingxi also looked at Chu Yan with a blank eye.
If it is said that solving the case and arresting the murderer and abusing the scum and slapping the face, she is naturally in the business.
But to lead troops to fight, you have to specialize in the arts.
Zhenguo Gong is now the biggest snake in the Yunjiang territory.
Seeing Shen Lingxi's black and white eyes, he looked at himself.
The ice intent between Chu Yan's eyebrows finally melted a lot.
"Mu Huai'an took Gu's handwritten order to take people to the border, as long as the border is not chaotic, the garrison outside the city is not to be afraid." He said in a faint voice.
Yun Yumei's heart moved, his eyes looked at his nose, and his nose looked at his heart.
is worthy of being a real brother-in-law.
If you don't make a move, you can directly kick your rival out of the game.
No, it's the "former" rival.
Mu Huai'an's eyes widened in astonishment, "Why me?" If I'm gone, this cloudside city ......"
"You're gone, and there's the lone Black Guard." Chu Yan interrupted him expressionlessly, and said officially: "Now that you have replaced Xiao Rui, the military affairs and defense of Yunjiang are your business, do you still want the lone black-armored guard to guard the border for you?" ”
"Your Highness is right, originally Xu Huan was the most suitable, but he will definitely keep filial piety in the future, and General Mu is indeed the best choice." Shen Lingxi said thoughtfully.
"Anyway, General Mu has nothing to do in the city now." She added seriously, "It's better to go to the border to train soldiers than to do nothing in the city." ”
If you have something to do, you won't make a special trip to her here, and you will eat the melons of the Zhenguo Mansion here under the pretense of public wealth.
Chu Yan was very comfortable when he heard this.
also added, "When Gu and the crown princess return to Beijing, I will transfer you back, and then your soldiers will be almost trained, and you will help Yun Yu guard Yunjiang in the future." ”
Mu Huai'an looked at these two people, you said a word to me, full of tacit understanding, and sank his eyebrows.
This is arranging his whereabouts, this is stabbing him in the body.
Shen Lingxi is an unenlightened person.
The most black-hearted is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
Yun Yu silently lit an incense candle for Mu Huai'an in his heart.
However, on a case-by-case basis, it is a rare opportunity to take advantage of such a time to go to the border to train troops.
Men, the lights are off in the love field, and the lights are lit on the battlefield, which is not lit here, but lit up there.
Seeing Mu Huai'an tighten the reins and stop the horse, Yun Yu hurriedly said to Chu Yan and Shen Lingxi: "General Mu has just come to Yunjiang and is not familiar with the border passes, so I will transfer some manpower to him." ”
After saying that, he directly retired and got out of the carriage.
Only Chu Yan and Shen Lingxi were left in the carriage, and the two were speechless for a while.
After about a quarter of an hour, the carriage came to a slow stop.
The Zhenguo Mansion has arrived......
