Chapter 390: Obscure

Views:

The next day, the sun was shining, but the atmosphere in Beimin Capital was tense. The people looked at the imperial guards coming and going on the street.

The queen mother disappeared from the palace for no reason, and the news spread like wind. Only one night later, a large number of imperial guards and soldiers in the barracks dispatched and searched house-to-house, spreading from the capital to farmers in the suburbs of Beijing.

No matter how puzzled the people were, they watched groups of guards and soldiers walk past solemnly, afraid to say anything.

It wasn't until noon that the guards retreated a bit and the people returned to the teahouse and restaurant before daring to start the discussion.

"How could the queen dowager disappear? It is a joke that the queen dowager of a country was taken away by others and spread to other countries!"

"Yes, Bei Min was ashamed. The imperial palace was heavily guarded, and someone actually sneaked into the Ci Ning Palace and abducted the queen mother."

At this time, a gray-haired old man coughed, "It may not be taken away. The queen mother of a country is missing, and the marriage of King Hao is about to be married. Do you think the marriage can go on normally?"

After being reminded by the old man, everyone realized that some people slapped their thighs directly, “It’s really possible! The queen mother left by herself? The queen mother obviously disagrees with King Hao marrying the righteous daughter of Kong Taifu. I don’t know who that woman was before?”

At this time, a middle-aged man laughed, "I'll tell you a secret. I heard that the woman used to wash chamber pots in Ye Ting."

When the word fell, many people were awakened, everyone was surprised and dumbfounded! The humble servant girl who washes the chamber pot is about to become Princess Hao! How could the Queen Mother agree? No, she left in a huff!

If you can't find the queen mother, King Hao can't get married in one day.

All of a sudden, everyone sighed, it was a wave of unrest!

A man in a moiré robe sat on the edge of the second floor, quietly listening to the hustle and bustle of the first floor. As soon as the Queen Mother Bei Min is gone, as long as she cannot find the Queen Mother, the marriage will inevitably be delayed. For him, it is a good thing.

At this time, Qin Ling, dressed in coarse cloth, walked into the second floor and came to Yun Ruofeng, "Subordinates inquired about the news. Su Xier was not in the Hao Palace, but in the palace. It is unknown where it is. "

Yun Ruofeng put down the tea cup, and his voice was calm, "Pei Qianhao has another residence in the palace except Quehao Palace. Longgandian is part of the palace. Probably Su Xier is there."

"Subordinates sneak into the palace tonight to find out the news."

Yun Ruofeng waved his hand, "No, this king has his own arrangements. We don't need to be stunned, we wait for Su Xi'er to come out."

"Wait? What if she doesn't come out?" Qin Ling was puzzled, how could King Yun be so sure that Su Xi'er would leave the palace

"Looking at the changes, Pei Qianhao has an excellent strategy and a keen observation. If he notices it, it will be difficult to take Su Xi'er away." Yun Ruofeng's voice was faint, and his eyes drifted further and further.

King Yun had already given the order, and Qin Ling had to do so. He bowed and saluted, then retreated, and left the second floor.

Yun Ruofeng sat quietly in the wing on the second floor, looking at the street as the Guards shuttled in between.

He is not so much looking at the street as he is waiting for someone. Yun Ruofeng looked at the sky, the sun was no longer in the middle, and the hour had already passed noon, this person should have arrived.

While thinking about it, a gentle and elegant voice came. Although his voice was soft, he heard it very clearly, "The wedding invitation from King Hao was sent out, and King Yun came without stopping. Besides, King Hao invited Emperor Nanzhao, not King Yun. ."

Like Yun Ruofeng, the man who made the noise wore a white robe, his eyes were handsome and elegant, and there was no wave in his eyes. This person is the third prince of Bei Min, Situ Li.

Yun Ruofeng made a request towards Situ Li, "Third princes, please sit down."

Situ Li's expression was light, and he walked forward and sat on a chair. "King Yun sneaked into Beimin Capital and found his residence outside the main hall. I don't know what he wanted to do?"

"The third prince is a wise man, you don't know what this king wants to do?" Yun Ruofeng said as he raised his hand to pour a cup of tea for Situ Li.

"How long have you known Su Xier, and fell in love with her so soon, it's unbelievable." Situ Li took the tea cup, with a temptation in his eyes.

He doesn't believe that Su Xi'er has such a great charm, isn't it just smart, beautiful and bold? Before, he looked at her with admiration, because she behaved very differently in the queen mother's palace. From her, he saw his shadow.

Even in a difficult situation, he desperately survived. Tenacious and persevering, just as he was at the beginning.

Yun Ruofeng looked far away, and after a while he replied, "The time to know Su Xier is very short, but..." When he said that, he stopped. He spent a long time with Ning Rulan.

"But what? King Yun wants the main hall to help, he must show his sincerity." Situ Li said slowly.

"Before, this king helped you. Now you help this king, from now on, no one owes anyone." Yun Ruofeng did not continue to say, but changed the subject.

"The temple owes you a favor, and naturally will help you. But, the temple is curious, why did you take her away?"

Yun Ruofeng chuckled, "The high monk has calculated a hexagram for this king, and Su Xier is the destined princess of this king."

"King Yun also believes in profound arts. On the day of King Hao's wedding, Su Xi'er came to you. The main hall will help you here. As for whether you can successfully take her away, it depends on you." Situ Li finished. , Picking up the tea cup, drank it all in one go.

With a knock, the tea cup was placed on the table, and Situ stood up and disappeared into the house instantly.

Yun Ruofeng's expression remained as usual. He and Situ Li had known each other for a long time, and he accidentally saved Situ Li's life. Now it comes in handy.

On the streets, the soldiers of the Imperial Guard have removed some of them and searched for them on the outskirts of Beijing. Yuchimo led King Hao's order and desperately searched for it.

However, all this is just a trick by Pei Qianhao, whether the queen mother returns or not, the marriage must be held as scheduled. At the same time, he ordered Wu Ling to protect Kong Taifu from any business trips, and dispatched another court lady to take care of Tan Ge.

At this moment, he was in the main hall of Longgandian, teaching Situ Lin to rule the country and lead soldiers, while Su Xier was collating books on the side.

Situ Lin listened attentively, and was very interested in the leadership. However, he occasionally lost his mind, and his gaze floated towards Su Xi'er inadvertently.

As long as he loses his mind, the uncle's icy eyes will be swept over, scaring him immediately back to his senses.

It was not until two hours later that Situ Lin closed the book and rested for a while. He got up and looked at Su Xi'er who was still sorting out the books, "Auntie, what book are you sorting out?"

Su Xi'er smiled and replied, "The emperor, the books on the shelves of the Longgan Temple, you look at them in a disorderly manner. Shouldn't the emperor read these books every day? Now let's ask what books are they?"

Situ Lin's expression immediately changed. He glanced at the emperor in fear, and saw that the emperor didn't mean to scold him, and he was relieved. He only chooses the books he is interested in, and he just flips through the rest.
