Under the doubtful eyes of the whole room, Hua Rong walked out of the door. As soon as he went out, he really realized that there was no place to go in the vast world. She stayed with the Ninth Prince, in addition to being a concubine to comfort him, and It was of no great use, and there was no need to deceive oneself and others, expecting that a woman could do something; but when Yue Pengju was given the marriage, the softest secrets and comfort deep in his heart were completely destroyed. Frustrated, he just wanted to leave this terrible place. In troubled times, find a place to hide.
Walking aimlessly for a while, she suddenly remembered Lu Tiha's previous suggestion. If she wanted to take refuge, there would be a good place there. After making up her mind, she thought about it. Before leaving, she had to ask the Ninth Prince first. Say hello and never leave without saying goodbye.
Returning to Zhizhou Mansion, Fan Gang was very happy to see her back: "Miss Hua, look, who is back?"
She looked at the person walking opposite, but it was Xu Caizhi. She felt as if she were reunited after a lifetime, and said happily: "Master Xu, are you back?"
Xu Caizhi shook his head sadly: "I failed to rescue the princess and her son, and they were scattered by the rebel army. I am lucky to have survived."
"Where is the Ninth Prince?"
"He is waiting for a meeting with Master Zong. He will probably not come out until evening. You go and rest first. I will inform you when the prince comes out."
"Okay, then I'll trouble you, Mr. Xu."
Not long after Hua Rong left, Wanwan and Li arrived.
When Wanwan saw Fan Gang, she gasped and said, "Quick, find Brother Ninth for me. I have something urgent..."
Fan Gang was a little surprised: "What's the matter?"
"It's urgent."
"However, the prince is discussing military affairs with Mr. Zong, and I dare not disturb him."
"This matter is more urgent than the military situation. I am afraid that it will endanger the safety of Ninth Brother..."
Wanwan was extremely worried. There was such a big female spy hiding next to Brother Ninth. Who could guarantee his safety
Fan Gang saw that she was not joking at all, and was afraid that the important matter would be delayed. Fortunately, after a while, the Ninth Prince came out with Master Zong.
Wanwan rushed forward without even bothering to salute: "Brother Ninth, I have something urgent..."
The Ninth Prince was very surprised: "Wanwan, what's the matter?"
Wanwan looked around, and the Ninth Prince immediately ordered: "You guys retreat first."
After everyone retreated, Wanwan knelt down with a plop: "Brother Jiu, that Hua Rong..."
"What's wrong with Hua Rong?"
"She holds the token of the Jin Army. She is a spy of the Jin people... I'm afraid she will be detrimental to you..."
The Ninth Prince was greatly surprised: "How could it be?"
"She accidentally dropped it. I saw it. It's absolutely true. She probably ran away..."
"Nonsense! How can Hua Rong be a spy? Absolutely not!"
"Brother Ninth, you must not be deceived by her. She must have run away when her identity was exposed..."
"What nonsense are you talking about? I've known her for many years. She sacrificed her life to protect me several times when I was in danger! How could she be a spy?"
"If you don't believe it, investigate immediately..."
The Ninth Prince frowned: "Fan Gang, Xu Caizhi..."
The two came in after hearing the sound: "Ninth Prince, what are your orders?"
"Have you seen Hua Rong?"
"Miss Hua came back half an hour ago and said she wanted to see you. I heard you were discussing something, so..."
Everyone suddenly stopped talking. Inside the open door, Hua Rong stood quietly at the door.
The Ninth Prince was very happy and said softly: "Rong'er, are you back? Come in quickly."
Seeing that Brother Ninth was unmoved, Wanwan was so anxious that she almost cried: "Brother Ninth, she really may be a spy..."
"Why is he standing here if he is a spy?"
"She is cunning, she is retreating in order to advance..."
The Ninth Prince's tone was very stern: "Wanwan, please go back to the house quickly and don't cause any more trouble. Today's incident cannot be explained in a single word. Anyone can be a spy, and there is no way that you, Sister Hua, can be a spy!"
Wanwan didn't dare to disobey, so she had to look at Hua Rong suspiciously, and left with Mrs. Li.
There were only two people left in the room, and Hua Rong was quite grateful: "Your Majesty, thank you for not suspecting that I was a spy!"
The Ninth Prince smiled slightly and stared at her: "Rong'er, even if I doubt everyone in the world, I will never doubt you! Rong'er, I absolutely trust you!"
She whispered: "Your Majesty, I want to leave."
"Why are you leaving? Are you angry at Wanwan's behavior? I will reprimand her."
"No. I came to the military camp originally because I wanted to do something meaningful. However, after these days, I found that I couldn't do anything at all. I couldn't make suggestions for the prince, nor could I personally go into battle to kill the enemy. Staying here It didn’t help, so I wanted to find a place to see if I could live a clean life for a few days... "
"Rong'er, several times when I was in danger, you were by my side and even protected me with your own body. Isn't this more important than going into battle to kill the enemy?"
Hua Rong hesitated and took out the token: "This is the token of Jin Wushu, the fourth prince of the Jin Kingdom. I once held it and witnessed the entire negotiation process between the emperor and the Jin people..."
The Ninth Prince wanted to know the source for a long time and immediately asked: "Where did you come from?"
She lowered her head and said, "Jin Wushu tried to arrest me several times, but I managed to escape. I got this token, so I didn't return it to him..." What she was thinking was that this was the Jin's thing, so take it and watch someone. Can one day make some difference
What kind of person is the Ninth Prince? She immediately understood that Jin Wushu obviously had evil intentions towards her, so he opened his eyes and said in a deep voice: "I have heard a little bit about Jin Wushu's behavior. Jin Wushu and other Jin marshals in the Southern Expedition Different, it is said that he liked the cultural customs of the Southern Dynasties since he was a child, and was familiar with the military and history books of the Southern Dynasties. For this reason, he was not liked by his father, Old Wolf Lord (Author's note: the Jin people called the king Wolf Lord). When he attacked the city for the first time, he encountered The general was a drunkard. He caught the general, but let him go, saying that I would capture you while you were drunk. If you are still not convinced, I will fight you again when you wake up. As a result, when the general was sober, If he fought with him again, he would be completely defeated. After this battle, Jin Wushu's reputation became great..."
When Hua Rong heard about Jin Wushu's deeds for the first time and saw that he looked like a young master, he thought he was nothing. But now when the Ninth Prince said it, he couldn't help but say: "He doesn't seem to be the main force in the southern expedition this time..."
The Ninth Prince shook his head: "Although the commander-in-chief is Zong Han, he is also one of the main forces in the Southern Expedition. Moreover, it is said that the Jin people captured Kaifeng as a result of his suggestions. This man is more terrifying than others, he is not as good as The other generals of the Jin army were neither greedy for money nor lustful. They rarely killed people after conquering cities and territories. They networked around with people with lofty ideals, made friends, and bought people's hearts... "
"why?"
"There are two types of generals. One type is a warrior, who joins the army to win a wife, a son, glory and wealth, and fights and kills, and is very cruel; while the other type is ambitious, not aiming to kill, but to win people's hearts. , in order to gain a broader world. What Jin Wushu did, I'm afraid he was plotting not only the gold, silver, money and women of the Song Dynasty, but also the beautiful rivers and mountains of the Song Dynasty... "
"Then, Jin Wushu, isn't he a careerist?"
"Rong'er, if I read it correctly, Jin Wushu will become my biggest enemy!"
Hua Rong suddenly said: "Then I'll just make an excuse to return his token and kill him first."
"Rong'er! You are the only person closest to me. You must not take risks. Now the Jin people control the whole situation. Jin Wushu gave you the token. It was originally a cat-and-mouse game. You must not fall for his trick! The confrontation between the two countries is about interests. Men are generous in small things, but they will never be selfish in the big picture. If you go like this, you are just throwing yourself into a trap. Playing right into his heart..."
Why doesn't Hua Rong know this power? The token given by Jin Wushu is like a bait thrown into the water. A lucky fish will always take the bait. What he only thinks about is that he has received the kindness of Lord Ninth Prince to save his life, but he has nothing to repay. It would be good if he could rescue his wife and children, but even if he couldn't, he would just try to kill Jin Wushu and repay his friendship.
Under the moonlight, the Ninth Prince stared at her and saw that her thin body seemed to be trembling slightly in the cold wind. He suddenly said: "Rong'er, you are also very important. I don't want you to sacrifice your life to save my wife and children..."
She was shocked and remained silent.
His tone was slightly harsh: "The Song Dynasty's thousands of troops were defeated thousands of miles away, let alone you, a weak woman! All the relatives around me have been killed, Rong'er, I never want anything to happen to you again! You promise I don’t want to take risks or make unnecessary sacrifices!”
She thought for a moment and nodded.
When the Ninth Prince saw her promise, he let out a long sigh.
At this moment, an urgent order suddenly came from outside, and a soldier hurried in: "Your Majesty, there is an urgent military situation..."
When the Ninth Prince saw it, his expression changed drastically: "Rong'er, you stay and take care of Wanwan and the others. Stay in Zhizhou Mansion first and don't go anywhere. I will lead the troops to go on an expedition immediately..."
In an emergency, Hua Rong could not refuse and immediately said: "Yes."
Soon, the Ninth Prince led his army to set off.
Besides, after Wanwan and Li left, she was really shocked and scared. Li suddenly said: "Princess, the Ninth Prince protected her so much, and now the Ninth Princess and others have been arrested. It seems that the Ninth Prince may make her his wife." Concubine…”
"No way?"
"Why not? We were rude to her today, just for fear that she would retaliate in the future."
"If it weren't for the golden spy, Sister Hua would never take revenge on us."
"Well, at least I still have my uncle. For my uncle's sake, she won't be too..."
Before the two of them finished speaking, they heard a knock on the door and it was Hua Rong. When she saw her, Wanwan lowered her head in shame, but Li was still tactful and saluted hurriedly: "Miss Hua, I'm really sorry, I was so rash."
"fine."
Wanwan saw that she had no ill intentions, and then thought of Yue Pengju. She trusted Yue Pengju and loved the house and the bird. She also felt that Hua Rong could not be a "spy", so she rolled her eyes a few times: "Why do you want to give you a token for that Jin Wushu? "
Hua Rong laughed: "Because I am not on the list of women to be arrested by the Jin man, he wants to catch me through this."
Wanwan hesitated and said, "You mean, he likes you?"
"Like? Maybe. Just like they like you and the princess, they want to capture all the women of the Song Dynasty and make them their playthings. It's this kind of 'like'..."
Wanwan almost fell into the hands of the Jin soldiers several times, so she felt the same way about these words. She rolled her eyes and suddenly said: "Sister Hua, since you have this token, can you enter and leave the Jin Army camp at will? Ah, Sister Hua, can you go and save my mother-in-law?”
"I'm sorry, princess! Although I have this token, the golden man will kill me if he sees me... Last time, if Peng Ju hadn't arrived, I would have been killed by the golden thief Zong Han..."
Wanwan obviously thought this was her excuse, and knelt down with a plop: "Sister, please...save my mother and concubine. I don't dare to ask you to save too many people. I only ask you to save my mother and concubine." .If you are afraid, can I go with you? If you don’t save my mother-in-law, she will die and be killed by the gold thief... "
Mrs. Li also knelt down, and the master and servant almost kowtowed: "Miss Hua, please, for my uncle's sake, please save the princess..."
"Sister, please. All you need to do is hold the token and ask for that Jinwushu. He is the fourth prince and has such great power..."
Hua Rong had a hard time saying that this was not a gold medal to avoid death. The ferocious Zong Han was afraid that he would kill him as soon as he saw him. Besides, Jin Wushu threw this gold medal in order to wait for the fish to take the bait and get an extra toy. That's all, how could he let the princess go just because of his request
In the face of national hatred and family hatred, women are pawns and tools, not bargaining chips that can be measured by emotions!
However, the naive Princess Wanwan who was raised in a boudoir would not understand these. She and her wet nurse still knelt on the ground with tears streaming down their faces, begging bitterly.
Hua Rong couldn't explain it and had to turn around and leave.
