Shangguan Yan was taken away by the people of the Duwei Mansion, and the Prince of Ming Jun was also taken away.
The popularity of Jingzhao Mansion was soaring.
Obviously they came first, but in the end, all the credit was taken by the people from the Duwei Mansion!
On the carriage back to the palace, the Duke of Ming Jun was extremely bitter in his heart.
If he had known this earlier, he might as well sit in the wing with dignity, and at most he would have a reputation for being idle, but what was it like hiding in the cellar
There's a ghost at a glance.
"The Duke of Laofan will come back to the palace with us to meet His Majesty," said Wang Xu, who was escorted by horses outside the carriage.
What is the purpose of the commander's mansion, that is, the eyes and ears of the monarch. When they find that the Prince of Ming County is sneaking into the cellar, can he not arrest the Prince of Ming County to face the saint
Others dare not arrest him, but the Du Weifu is not afraid.
The Duke of Ming Dynasty deeply felt that he had been ruined by Shangguan Yan.
She must have done it on purpose, knowing that she couldn't escape, so she pulled him back.
This aunt, who cheated on his father last time, is now here again.
The Duke of Ming Jun and Shangguan Yan have not seen each other for many years. The Duke of Ming Jun has not known Shangguan Yan for a long time, so how did Shangguan Yan recognize him
What about amnesia
No, he has to go and tell his grandfather!
It is said that Shangguan Yan pretended to have amnesia, and Shangguan Yan deceived the king!
After the people from the Duwei Mansion and Jingzhao Mansion left, Xu Fengxian greeted the guests with a smile: "Let's continue! Continue! Girls! Sing!"
Tianxiang Pavilion has resumed its previous grand occasion.
Gu Jiao also found an excuse to leave the cubicle and go upstairs.
"Didn't find you?" Gu Jiao asked Xiao Heng.
Xiao Heng stood by the window facing the street, looking at the direction where Wang Xu and his party were leaving, and said with a complicated expression, "Those are the people from the Duwei's Mansion."
Gu Jiao murmured, "The Commander's Mansion?"
Zhao State did not have a commander's mansion.
This is the unique military authority of the Yan State. She was introduced by Muchuan on the day she entered the palace. In the outer court of the palace, the right side is the Dali Temple and the Sixth Department, and the left side is the Zongren Mansion and the Four Commanders' Mansion.
However, Gu Jiao didn't know exactly what the Duwei Mansion did.
"The official of the imperial court on the right side of the carriage is Guan Duwei Wang Xu, who belongs to the monarch." Xiao Heng investigated the information of the major officials of Dayan, and Wang Xu happened to be among them. Wang Xu is the direct son of the Wang family and the relative of Wang Xianfei. nephew.
Concubine Wang Xian had no prince, and had only two princesses. The Wang family did not participate in the struggle for succession, and devoted allegiance to the monarch.
Gu Jiao thoughtfully said, "So the monarch is arresting people, and that woman is related to the monarch?"
Then why is it so ragged
But thinking back carefully about her appearance, she really deserves the words of Xianzi's loss of appearance.
And her eyes.
It seems to be a pair of standard Ruifeng eyes, but it is covered by messy hair, so Gu Jiao is not completely sure.
"You..." Gu Jiao noticed that Xiao Heng was staring at the carriage that was going further and further away, "What are you thinking?"
Xiao Heng handed her the watermelon in his hand: "She dug it and said it was for me to eat."
When he said this, he felt a little gloomy in his heart. He thought of her eyes that were afraid of being rejected, and also thought of the hurt that flashed when she lowered her eyes when he didn't reach out to take it.
Finally, someone from the Duwei Mansion came, and she shoved the watermelon directly into his arms.
The watermelon was cold, but it felt hot in his hand.
"And this." Xiao Heng said, and handed a golden thing to Gu Jiao, it was the piece of gold that Gu Jiao broke off to share the spoils with Shangguan Yan, "She gave it to me, let me pursue my daughter-in-law. "
Gu Jiao: "..."
Did she see that I was disguised as a man
When I spoke to her, I clearly used a juvenile voice. Even when I entered the room, I did not return to my own voice when I talked to Xiao Heng.
Even if she suspects that I have an unethical relationship with Xiao Heng, she should think about Broken Sleeves.
Of course, it may also mean chasing after the male and female daughters.
Um, are you just like the one below
uh, strayed!
Who is that woman? Why do you seem to know Xiao Heng
…
Royal Palace.
The monarch already knew that the evil barrier was caught by the commander's mansion, and he was on his way back to the palace to be punished.
He built up all the firepower and was about to rush to Guanyan to launch an attack, but no one expected that the commander-in-chief would bring back a Mingjun king.
The Prince of Ming County sneakily appeared at the place where Shangguan Yan was hiding. At this juncture, his behavior was too suspicious.
The fact that the Duke of Ming Dynasty will go to Tianxiang Pavilion has nothing to do with Shangguan Yan.
But sometimes it doesn't matter what the truth is, it matters what the monarch thinks.
The Prince of Ming Dynasty couldn't tell the story that he went to pick up a master on behalf of the prince—
The monarch looked at Duke Ming's eyes, only to ask, "Are you going to assassinate your aunt?"
Prince Ming was about to cry: "You didn't announce that aunt was missing! How could I know—"
The monarch nodded: "Yes, I did not announce it to the public, so you have placed eyeliner by my side!"
Prince Ming: "I don't!"
Shangguan Yan added fuel to the fire: "You have it, I saw it all."
What did you see, what did you see!
Is there such a thing as talking nonsense!
Ming Jun Wang gritted his teeth: "Auntie she remembers me! She called my nephew! Her amnesia is fake!"
The king snorted: "Will Shangguan Yan call your nephew? Then she really has amnesia, and she never pays attention to you."
Prince of Ming Dynasty: "..."
Can this also step on the pit? !
The monarch asked the Prince of Mingjun to go back to the Prince's Mansion, where he was banned for three months. By the way, he asked Zhang Dequan to call the Prince into the palace, and scolded him in the face.
The fault of a son is not a godfather, no matter what the Prince of Ming Dynasty did in the theater, it was because he was a father and a king who did not discipline him well.
The prince thought to himself, is it not your father's fault that I am like this
It's good to have a brain addiction after saying this, if you really say it, the king will kill him.
The Prince of Ming Dynasty shared the monarch's firepower, and Shangguan Yan's punishment was not so severe. At least, the monarch didn't really kill her with one sword.
But she was also banned.
After all, it is impossible for the monarch to easily settle the account of the monarch's baldness.
"Where is Qing'er? If you say it, I will treat you lightly."
Shangguan Yan did not say anything.
The monarch said in a cold voice, "Shangguanyan, I didn't keep you in the palace to protect you, it's just that the truth about the damage to the imperial mausoleum has not yet been found out. Once the truth is revealed, you will immediately go back to the imperial mausoleum!"
Suddenly someone from the foreign court came to report: "Your Majesty! The matter of the imperial mausoleum has become clear!"
King: "..."
The king almost choked.
Shangguan Yan was no better.
She can't go back to the imperial mausoleum yet.
The king waited for her to beg for mercy.
She held on without begging for mercy.
The atmosphere was awkward for a while.
It was Zhang Dequan who withdrew silently, negotiated a few sentences with the officials of the Ministry of Punishment of the foreign court, and reported with a smile when he came back: "It's a mistake, it's not the case of the emperor's mausoleum."
"Ah."
"Humph!"
The monarch and Shangguan Yan turned their faces in different directions at the same time.
Shangguan Yan returned to the Zhaoyang Palace to stop his feet, and the monarch called Wang Xu of the Duwei Mansion and asked him to investigate the whereabouts of Shangguan Qing.
"Yes."
Wang Xu took the lead.
The monarch leaned back in his chair wearily, the weather was sweltering, and sweat was dripping from the top of his head.
Zhang Dequan asked the palace maids and eunuchs to step down, then looked at the top of the king's head and said, "Your Majesty, take this off."
The king hummed softly.
Zhang Dequan walked over and took off his wig.
The monarch has been able to determine that Shangguan Yan led him out to save Shangguan Qing. Of course, she did not expect that the other party would cut him bald with a sword, but it would be false to say that she was not angry.
The monarch said coldly, "She can't tell me directly, is someone going to hurt Qing'er? Will I care whether Qing'er lives or not?"
Zhang Dequan said in his heart, you have wiped out her ancestral home, and expelled her from the royal family and demoted her to a commoner. Do you still expect her to have any trust between father and daughter, or between the ruler and the people
Everyone understands the truth, but they don't accept it.
Zhang Dequan poured a cup of herbal tea for the monarch: "You calm down."
Breathing out is impossible.
The monarch took a sip of tea, thought of the little princess, and asked, "Is the little princess still back?"
Zhang Dequan said hurriedly, "You're worried that she won't be able to keep up with the prodigy class, so you asked the junior to find a master from the academy to make up the class."
"There is such a thing." The monarch remembered and stopped urging.
You can ask him to approve the book, but he can't approve it.
He paused and said to Zhang Dequan, "Bring me that thrush."
The monarch had two hobbies in his life, one was kicking and the other was raising birds.
He just had someone buy a colorful thrush from Jin State a few days ago. He loves it so much that he goes to see it every day.
Zhang Dequan went to the door and ordered the little eunuch. After a while, the little eunuch came in a hurry and said in fear, "The thrush... is gone!"
"Has anyone been to the bird house?"
"Apart from the bird trainer, there is only... the little princess."
…
The little princess promised to compare birds with Xiao Qingkong yesterday. She was an elder who kept her promise, so she put the bird of His Majesty's uncle into her pocket and took it out of the palace.
"I-I just borrowed it. I told Your Majesty's Uncle, and His Majesty's Uncle did not object!"
—A certain small county master said that he climbed onto the dragon bed in the middle of the night and talked to the sleeping monarch.
After the little county owner brought the bird out, he put it in his book bag and didn't take it out until he went to make up the class.
Xiao Jingkong whistled with his fingers (there was no sound), and called Xiao Jiu (all by roaring).
The two children did not reach a consensus on the rules for comparing birds. Xiao Qingkong believed that comparing birds was comparing size, and the little county master believed that comparing birds was comparing beauty and ugliness.
Both are so confident in their birds!
Then when the two birds met, they were dumbfounded.
I saw Xiao Jiu flew over without saying a word, and swallowed the colorful thrush in the palm of Xiao County Master's hand in one bite, leaving no hair left.
Small Clearance: "… "
Little Princess: "..."
…
Tianxiang Pavilion.
Gu Chengfeng finished tonight's show, went to the backstage to take off his costume and makeup, changed back to his light blue gown and went up to the second floor.
Xiao Heng and Gu Jiao were in the room.
Xiao Heng was still standing on the terrace, looking at the direction the carriage was leaving.
Gu Jiao didn't disturb him, just stayed by his side quietly, eating the watermelon dug by Shangguan Yan.
Ice cold, sweet and refreshing.
What Xiao Heng needed at this time was not enlightenment or heart-to-heart talk, but companionship.
"I'm sorry, I left you out." Xiao Heng recovered and said to Gu Jiao guiltily.
Gu Jiao puffed her cheeks and shook her head.
The woman not only dug the watermelon into beautiful little balls, but also removed the seeds.
She ate happily.
She will be happy with her husband.
Two people do not have to have many words together, silent company is also a tacit understanding.
There are two left.
Gu Jiao thought for a while, then scooped one and fed it to his mouth.
Xiao Heng ate it.
"Is it sweet?" Gu Jiao asked.
"Yeah." He nodded, "It's sweet."
Gu Jiao also fed him the last one, then she held the watermelon, raised her head, and gulped down the watermelon juice.
She drank all over her face, like a little red beard.
Xiao Heng was amused by her, and the faint melancholy feeling in his heart dissipated a lot in an instant. He took out a clean handkerchief and wiped it carefully for her.
Gentle movements, gentle eyes.
Gu Jiao didn't move, she raised her face and let him wipe it, she was very obedient.
This is what Gu Chengfeng saw when he came to the door.
He curled his lips and muttered sourly: "Stinky girl, you are so good with this kid, and you are a little devil with me!"
dong dong dong!
He knocked on the door unceremoniously.
Xiao Heng happened to finish wiping, and when he heard the voice, he took back the handkerchief in his hand.
Gu Jiao glared at Gu Chengfeng resentfully, your skin is itchy again!
Gu Chengfeng received the death stare from Gu Jiao, he bit his silver teeth, stinky girl!
He stepped into the room, sat down at the table of the Eight Immortals, poured himself a cup of tea, and hummed: "Don't blame me for not reminding you, in half an hour, the inner city gate will be closed."
Xiao Heng squeezed Gu Jiao's hand gently.
Gu Jiao also pinched him.
Gu Chengfeng was caught off guard and was given a bowl of dog food again, so he wanted to throw the table!
Don't go too far, the two of you!
This is my house!
To be nice to me...
No, you two are not allowed to kiss me!
"Speaking of business." Gu Chengfeng said sternly, "Today's Prince Ming, I found out what he came to do."
Xiao Heng and Gu Jiao left the terrace and came over.
The two sat down opposite him, looked at him together, and motioned for him to speak down.
Gu Chengfeng didn't give a shit, and told the overheard news: "... The prince asked him to come here to wait for others. It is said that he is a very powerful expert, but you have also seen it. The others have left, and I have not seen any The master is haunting, it may be that his information is wrong."
On this point, Gu Jiao and Xiao Heng have no evidence, so it is not easy to draw conclusions.
"No?" Gu Jiao asked.
"It's gone." Gu Chengfeng said.
Gu Jiao said, "Who is the woman who was taken away today?"
Gu Chengfeng sighed: "The officials who came here are very tight-lipped, and we haven't found out for the time being."
Gu Jiao looked at Xiao Heng.
Xiao Heng was silent.
…
Xiao Heng returned to the inner city before the city gate closed, while Gu Jiao took Gu Xiaoshun back to Yangliu Lane.
Zhong Ding, Zhou Tong and others stayed at Tianxiang Pavilion. They paid all their money and the girl called out. They didn't know that Gu Jiao and Gu Xiaoshun had left.
After Xiao Heng came out of Tianxiang Pavilion, his heart felt strange, and he always felt that there was some invisible involvement.
"Master, son, son!"
The coachman called him three times.
Xiao Heng regained consciousness and asked, "What's wrong?"
The driver whispered, "We're going to Lingbo Academy."
In other words, it's time for you to change your shirt.
Xiao Heng changed back to Canglan Academy's uniform, put on a veil, and went to Lingbo Academy to pick up Xiao Jingkong from Master Cheng.
Small headroom got into trouble today.
He rubbed his hands together and dared not speak.
In the past, Xiao Heng could see through his Xiao Jiu Jiu at a glance, but today he was a little restless and didn't notice the strangeness of Xiao Jingkong.
Xiao Jingkong had already eaten, and after returning to Linglong Pavilion, Xiao Heng directly fetched water for him to take a bath, and there were no extra words in the whole process.
Although he always talks less, Xiao Jingkong still feels the difference of the bad brother-in-law.
He looked at the bad brother-in-law puzzled: "Are you the last one in the exam today?"
No matter how many positive numbers Xiao Heng takes in the first test, the countdown will always linger in Xiao Jingkong's heart.
"No." Xiao Heng said.
He brought dry clothes and put them on Xiao Jingkong: "Go to sleep."
"Oh." It was rare for Xiaojingkong not to be a demon, so he crawled onto the bed, turned over a few times, and fell asleep.
The moon was dark and the wind was high, the weather was hot and dry, the cicadas on the trees kept calling, and there were bursts of frogs croaking in the lotus pond.
The entire academy fell into a deep sleep.
Xiao Heng tossed and turned on the bed.
The assassination last night, Zhang Dequan's shout, and... the woman he met today kept flashing in his mind.
The woman holding the watermelon in fear of his rejection became more and more clear in her mind.
And the feeling of being pulled in his heart became stronger and stronger.
He covered his heart and breathed slightly.
I don't know how long this has passed before he fell into a deep sleep in a burst of nonsense.
midnight.
There was a flash of light, and there was a roar of thunder in the sky.
Xiao Heng shuddered, opened his eyes and sat up!
The window lattices were blown open by the strong wind, and the plain-colored curtains swayed in the thunder and lightning.
He got out of bed, walked over and closed the window lattice again, accidentally knocking off the teacup on the table.
The teacup shattered, and he took a step back. He was going to avoid it, but he stepped on a shard.
Blood gushed out from the soles of his fair and thin feet, all the way to the corner of the wall.
…
The next day, Xiao Heng sent Xiao Jingkong to Lingbo College to go to school. As soon as he walked to the entrance of the college, he heard two students from Lingbo College say—
"Have you heard? There's something wrong with the waste girl!"
"What can happen to her?"
"Last night, she seemed to want to escape from the palace, but there was a sudden thunderstorm. She was so frightened that she fell down from the back hillside.
"real or fake?"
"Of course it's true! There is an imperial doctor living next door to my house. He was summoned into the palace overnight to rescue the aborted wife, and he hasn't come back yet! Now it's rumored that it's the aborted wife's virtues that are bad, even God I can't stand it anymore, I'll send down the thunder to punish her!"
…
Xiao Heng was suddenly out of breath, he didn't know how he left.
When the carriage stopped, he was already at the door of Tianxiang Pavilion.
The driver looked at him worriedly: "Young Master, Tianxiang Pavilion is here, are you... Are you alright?"
"I'm fine, what about the clearance?" Xiao Heng asked.
The coachman was stunned for a moment and replied, "You sent him to the academy, and handed it over to Master Lu in person, and asked Master Lu to speak to Master Cheng. If you can't come over at noon, I would like Master Cheng to help take care of him."
"That's good." Xiao Heng got off the carriage.
The driver was confused.
Did the boy get hit by something? The whole person became a little lost.
But even so, the son still arranged the clearance properly.
Xiao Heng would never come to Tianxiang Pavilion wearing the uniform of Canglan Women's Academy. Today was the first time.
Gu Jiao was also there.
She also heard about the wife's daughter, from Muchuan's mouth.
She came to Tianxiang Pavilion because she wanted to find Gu Chengfeng to find out the truth.
In fact, with Muchuan's status, it's unlikely to be false to say such a thing.
Gu Chengfeng closed the door, and the two sat down. He himself came to the table and sat down, and said solemnly, "I have two things here—the first thing is that the waste concubine was seriously injured, and it is true that her life and death are uncertain. The people in the National Teacher Hall were also alarmed, the National Teacher entered the palace overnight, and is still rescuing this morning."
"How did you get hurt?" Gu Jiao asked.
"It is said that he fell off the hillside." Gu Chengfeng said.
"Second thing."
Gu Chengfeng said this, paused, and then said, "The woman who was taken away by the Duwei's mansion yesterday is the waste concubine."
Xiao Heng's fingers clenched tightly.
…
Palace, Zhaoyang Hall.
This palace, which has been abandoned for many years, has lost its former glory, and it has become a mess.
But since the middle of the night last night, it was once again crowded. More than a dozen imperial doctors and more than 20 doctors and nurses were summoned to Zhaoyang Hall. The Imperial Forest Army surrounded Zhaoyang Hall. The capable soldiers guarded outside the Zhaoyang Hall.
The monarch stood under the corridor, watching the basins of blood come out from it, his expression was extremely ugly.
Zhang Dequan invited the National Teacher over.
The National Teacher entered the room to check the injury for Shangguan Yan, and shook his head slightly after coming out.
The monarch said violently: "Is she pretending again! I know it! Besides pretending, what else can she do!"
The national teacher did not speak.
The monarch said coldly, "Why didn't Aiqing say anything?"
The national teacher met the monarch's stern gaze: "I'm afraid it can't be as your majesty wants. She is really injured, and her injuries are serious."
If the national teacher can say that it is serious, it is not a serious or not serious problem, but something that cannot be saved.
The monarch clenched his fists: "National teacher, heal her."
The national teacher said: "I can't do it."
The monarch shouted: "You are the national teacher! You are the most skilled person in Dayan country!"
The national teacher said calmly: "I don't have the medicine she needs, and even if there is, the hope of curing her is very slim."
The monarch said solemnly, "Where is the medicine?"
"It's not somewhere, it's a person." The national teacher said, "Tianqiong Academy, Xiao Liulang."
Come to a monthly pass, bless the wife
