Unexpectedly, 4
After two days of going to court, I don't know if it was because of my own bad feelings, Menda felt more and more that the emperor didn't even look at him directly, and his eyes seemed to have a look of disgust every time he crossed his head.
The more I looked at it, the more I beat the drum in my heart, and finally got to the scattered court, and hurriedly returned to the yamen to rest.
After nightfall, Menda became more and more restless, pacing repeatedly in the room, thinking to himself, "Tie Ling should wake up today, I don't know if the prince killed her, or stay and continue to play~ The prince is too lawless, it is not enough to have that old woman in the palace, but also to play the master of the martial arts alliance! If the emperor knows, he must be angry to ascend to heaven." Well, how much older is Tie Ling than the crown prince? It seems that he is less than ten years old, which is already considered tender, and the one in the palace is twenty years older! It seems that even if he succeeds to the throne, he must be a faint monarch, which is better to wait, this faint monarch or Ming monarch is better to wait? Alas, it is difficult to wait, faint monarch has to be coaxed, Ming monarch has to deceive, it is not easy!"
After thinking about it, he felt that with Tie Ling's temperament, it was more likely to die, and he felt a little sad in his heart, and he took out Tie Ling's Xue Bingyu's belongings from the drawer, which were just some handkerchiefs and scattered silver.
After looking at it, Shan picked up the white handkerchief, put it under his nose and took a few deep breaths. This handkerchief was found on Tie Ling's body, the embroidery was exquisite, and it was undoubtedly her cherished thing, and her soul was wandering for a while.
After a while, he glanced at the water-green handkerchief, and also unfolded it to see, he had seen this thing before, saying that it was found on Xue Bingyu's body, and he threw it away after seeing it, at this time, for some reason, he actually stretched out his hand to unfold the two handkerchiefs and compared.
Seeing that the size and pattern layout are similar, there are patterns embroidered in the lower left corner, but the embroidery skills are very different.
Menda watched it for a long time, and always felt that something was weird, "These two are a couple, and it's normal to have similar handkerchiefs on their bodies, but why~" I thought about it for a long time in a daze, and finally remembered "By the way, I seem to have seen similar handkerchiefs in other places~"
When she talked to me, there was an embroidery pattern in the lower left corner of the veil that covered her mouth, what was embroidered? It seems to be ~ It seems to be a purple water lily ~"
A chill suddenly rose behind him for no reason, and he picked up Tie Ling's handkerchief and looked at it again, "Could it be a coincidence? Which woman doesn't have a handkerchief on her? Which handkerchief doesn't have a pattern on it?" But why is there only a pattern in the lower left corner, and the rest of the place is all blank~ And how can it be so coincidental, but she came to take Tie Ling away!"
"Impossible, impossible, she and Tie Ling don't know each other, how can it have anything to do with it~ It's hard to say! Who would have thought that Yuan Ziying and Cao Jixiang would have a relationship? If there is really a conspiracy, what is the distance between the capital and Jiangnan?"
I was so panicked for a moment that I couldn't breathe, "Do I want to enter the palace immediately and tell the emperor that she took Tie Ling away?" No, this matter~ Is the prince involved? The prince can't leave this woman for a moment, even if she has a conspiracy and plans for the future, it will not be unfavorable to the prince~ Ouch! If the prince is really involved, could it be that what Cao Jixiang said is true?!" There was a buzz in his head, and he almost fainted.
"No, I have to calm down! I can't scare myself anymore, what should I do? What should I do? Why don't I go into the palace now to see the prince to find out the wind? No! If the prince really colludes with her and Tie Ling, won't I send it to the tiger's mouth myself? But if this matter is true, then it is a rebellion, and I can't ignore it~"
Suddenly I was shocked in my heart, "If that woman really has a problem, she won't let Tie Ling go! Over there in the Shenji Battalion~ Will they go to rob people? With Aunt Wan's identity, it is not difficult to pretend to be Tie Ling's subordinates and go straight to the Shenji Battalion~ Ouch, that's not right! I went to court today, as if I heard that the Shenji Battalion went to the suburbs of Beijing for training, and only a small number of sergeants were left in the battalion! My mother!"
The more I thought about it, the more scared I became, and I jumped up and said to myself, "I have to go to the Shenji Camp to see! If nothing happens, then it's okay, maybe I've thought too much, and then I decide whether to go into the palace tomorrow to see the prince, or explain to the emperor~ Today, the emperor and the prince have just seen the show girl in the palace, and now it's night, I go to the palace at this time, and the movement is also big, but it is much more convenient to go to the Shenji camp." ”
At that moment, he immediately gathered his men and horses, brought all the muskets, bows and crossbows collected in the yamen, and hurried all the way, and finally there was no dangerous sound in front of him.
When I heard that the person blocking the road was actually Menda, I was all surprised, but the road was really narrow, and when I was panicking, Yuan Ziying took advantage of the cover of the night and replied, "I was ordered to go to the palace gate to garrison, and the emperor said that he caught Tieling Xue Bingyu, and he was afraid that the bandits' subordinates would jump over the wall and enter the palace to rob people." ”
Menda was really happy to descend from heaven at this time, and shouted, "Is it the emperor's will? Great, great!" Yuan Ziying hurriedly said, "The holy order does not dare to delay, please let the door give way, let us go first." Menda hurriedly waved his hand to get out of the way.
Yuan Ziying and the others were not polite, and went straight to the horse, Menda only cared about joy, and overheard the people around him talking about "The bandits are too rampant, and the guards at the palace gate actually want to mobilize the Shenji Battalion, if this is a fire, wouldn't the whole capital know about it?" "Yes, yes, this kind of thing should be mobilized for us, it is estimated that the emperor thinks that we did not catch the bandit leader in the southern prison last time, alas, the emperor does not trust us." ”
Menda's heart sank, and he shouted, "Don't you have to guard the prisoners in the camp, why are you going to the palace gate again?"
Menda blinked and shouted, "How many men have you mobilized?, how many are left in the camp?" There was silence again, and finally someone replied, "There are still fifty men left in the camp, but there are plenty of guns, and they are enough to deal with the thieves." ”
Menda exclaimed, "Fifty people, how can that be?" only heard the other party's words with a smile, and the voice came from afar, "If Men-sama is not at ease, please go over and reinforce it." Menda was about to agree, but a sense of foreboding rose in his heart: "Why does this person talk so casually to himself? The most disciplined in the army, I don't know how much higher my position is than him!"
Anger surged, and he said, "Who are you leading the team? Is it Fang Gang? Tell him to come and talk to me!" I heard the sound of horses' hooves, and someone else replied, "General Fang Gang has stayed in the camp and garrisoned, and Lord Men can see him when he passes." ”
Menda was strange again, this Fang Gang stayed in the camp to guard the prisoners, and did not go to guard the palace gate? How could the leader leave the opportunity to make meritorious service in front of the emperor?
However, the people around Menda saw that this team was really strange, and they all discussed: "Do you know the people who just passed? "I haven't seen them either, but we don't know them well. "The strange thing is that I seem to see some very old people, and their hair is gray. "Really?" "Really, several, crowded at the end of the line, it's really strange, how can there be such an old man in the army?"8.
