"Princess!" Zhuling and Zhuyin exclaimed, and in time they helped Jiang Qingjiu, who was unsteady because he could not bear the news of Jiang Yichen's assassination.
"I'm fine. I've got the music scores. Pack them up and head back to Fengli immediately." Jiang Qingjiu covered his flustered chest and ordered decisively.
"Yes, princess." One of Zhuling and Zhuyin went to convey the order and pack things, while the other stayed to take care of Jiang Qingjiu.
"Zhuling, you are good at Qinggong. Go back with me on horseback. Zhuyin, when you are out of the public eye, pretend to be me and ride back in a carriage. Remember not to let anyone see you." Jiang Qingjiu ordered the next step. plan of.
A quarter of an hour later, Jiang Qingjiu and his party arrived at the door of the inn. Jiang Qingjiu was about to get on the carriage, "Is the princess going back to Fengli? Can you go with the princess?" Nan Rongshi and Miao Ziru also appeared at the inn. At the door, there was also a look of luggage packed and ready to go out.
It’s really a dog-skin plaster, you can be found everywhere.
Qingshan couldn't help but curse.
Gu Xingzhou and Qingshan were in a less noticeable corner, ready to secretly protect Jiang Qingjiu at any time.
"It's not your way. Third Prince, please help yourself." Jiang Qingjiu lightly rejected Nan Rongshi's approach and took advantage of the situation to get into the carriage.
"Is the princess worried about His Highness the Crown Prince?" came Nan Rongshi's affirmative tone.
Jiang Qingjiu paused as he got on the carriage, his eyes sharp, and he asked angrily, "How do you know?"
"Did you do it?" Jiang Qingjiu was suspicious.
"Princess, calm down. I dare to swear to God that it was not me. But Shi knows some clues. But I have a condition. If the princess agrees, I can tell the princess this clue." Nan Rongshi looked determined and calm. idle.
"Oh. Really? Tell me your conditions." Jiang Qingjiu turned around and waited for Nan Rongshi's conditions.
"I hope the princess will agree to let me take part in the competition to recruit a bride." Nan Rongshi stated the conditions without shame.
Zhuyin was trembling with anger, how could this man be so shameless.
"Okay." Jiang Qingjiu agreed readily.
"Fengli is rich, but its military strength is not strong enough. There is an island tribe named Fusang. Everyone on the island is ugly and short, but they are small and ambitious. This tribe also wants to be independent like Yusang, so they planned and arranged this An assassination." Nan Rongshi told what he knew as promised.
"I will check whether the news is true. I will not break my promise to you." After Jiang Qingjiu said this, he entered the carriage.
"Let's set off." Zhuling gave the order, and the returning team followed the order.
Nan Rongshi saw the situation and followed closely behind, preparing to set off.
"Go give the Third Prince Nanrong a surprise." Gu Xingzhou, who was hiding in the corner and watching the whole process, told Qingshan.
"Yes. I guarantee that the third prince will receive a surprise." Qingshan was very excited when he heard that he could finally take care of this ingratiating dog.
After a while, as soon as Nan Rongshi got on the carriage, the horse raised its hooves as if it was stimulated. For a moment, people turned on their backs and became a mess at the door of the inn.
"What's going on?" Nan Rongshi used his martial arts to lift Miao Ziru out, and after he landed on the ground, he asked the boy driving the carriage.
"Third Prince, I don't know what happened to this horse. It was fine before." The boy was also puzzled.
"Check. I can't find that your fate is the same as this horse." As he said this, Nan Rongshi killed the mad horse with a sword. Blood spattered on the ground. For a moment, everyone was as scared as if they had seen the god of plague, fearing that they would also suffer this misfortune. .
Not only the accompanying guards, but also the people watching were trembling with fear and dispersed like birds and beasts.
Nan Rongshi regretted that he had missed the opportunity to go back with Jiang Qingjiu. The one who was closer to the water was the first, and now that the chance was gone, he wanted to kill someone to vent his anger.
The only person present was Miao Ziru. Not only did she not feel scared, but she admired Nan Rongshi's decisiveness more and more.
After careful inspection, the boy did not find anything wrong with the horse. In order to save his life, he had to make up a lie, "Third Prince, someone tampered with the horse, causing it to go crazy. The person who did this was young and didn't know it." "
"Find another horse within a quarter of an hour, and I, the prince, will forgive you." Nan Rongshi thought that he could not delay any longer and just wanted to catch up with Jiang Qingjiu.
As Qingshan hurried on, he muttered silently, "Brother Ma, I'm sorry, I will definitely come back to burn paper for you. You have a good trip. I didn't expect that Nan Rongshi was so cruel."
Jiang Qingjiu, who had walked several miles, heard what happened to Nan Rongshi's carriage and sighed at the kind person who did it.
Qingshan not far away sneezed.
Who is thinking about me?
Jiang Qingjiu got off the carriage, switched to riding a horse, and told Zhuyin, "Remember, you can take a small road, change the carriage, and try to avoid Nan Rongshi."
"Yes, I will obey the princess's instructions." Zhuyin nodded seriously to show that he remembered.
After riding fast for a day and a night, we finally arrived at the capital of Fengli Kingdom.
After a long journey to the East Palace, Jiang Qingjiu burst into tears when he saw the unconscious Jiang Yichen, "Brother Emperor."
Brother Huang, I will definitely find the murderer behind the scenes and avenge you!
You must wake up. Qingqing is still waiting for you to choose a husband for me. You are the Crown Prince who sticks to your word. You cannot break your promise.
Seeing that her father, the queen, and her mother, who used to be so full of energy, had aged a lot in an instant because of this incident, and their hair suddenly grew gray, Jiang Qingjiu was even more heartbroken.
I hate myself even more for not being strong enough.
"Princess, the imperial doctor said that as long as His Highness the Crown Prince survives tonight, he will wake up. Seeing that the mission was not completed, those dead soldiers all bit their tongues and committed suicide. Only one person was the leader. He was unwilling to fail the mission and was a step too late, so he was Stop him in time. But this man wants to die and refuses to take action." Zhu Tao, who stayed in Fengli, knew the whole story.
"Go to the dungeon, I'll go meet him." Jiang Qingjiu gathered his emotions, blinked his sour eyes, and walked straight out.
In a dark and damp dungeon.
"I heard that you have been resisting interrogation in your tribal language. As a native of Fengli, the language was unified at the founding of the country. I know you can understand."
"I don't know if your family will resist. If they resist, they will be killed. But if there are children among them, I can't bear it." Jiang Qingjiu observed that this person reacted when he heard the word "family" and said The child even raised his head and clenched his hands.
Zhuling received Jiang Qingjiu's signal and went to the Fusang tribe.
"You, a small tribe, must not dare to rebel. As long as you are willing to tell the people behind you, I can spare your child's life."
"I don't know who that person is. That person wears a mask. Every time that person discusses with my father, the clan leader. But I accidentally saw the word "Shi" embroidered on the sachet worn by that person's waist." Miyamoto, the leader of the soldiers who died this time, had not had any water for several days and had been tortured. His voice was hoarse and he finally spoke.
Shizi?
Nan Rongshi!
It's you!
