56. Arrested
56. Arrested
The same round of moon shone on Luo Yi, but it was three points more chilling and seven points more lonely than the frontier fortress.
Prince Rui's mansion was very quiet and lifeless, looking carefully, there was no sign of anyone moving around.What happened?
On the other side, in Prince Wu's Mansion, Lu Mingzi frowned and looked at Zhong Susu who was still lying on the bed.If it is said that he is the one who has the most headache recently and is overwhelmed by a series of inexplicable events before he can regain his senses!
The old concubine took the risk of robbing Mo Ziqian and brought him back, which surprised him.Mo Ziqian's blood could not save Luo Yingying, that is to say, he was not the Hall Master Baihu who dashed his hopes, so he was surprised again.Later, Han Zizhe led people to surround the palace, and the old concubine was arrested for the crime alone, allowing them to escape through the secret passage, which was a big surprise.Seeing that more than half a month passed, there was no news from the old concubine, and Zhong Susu hadn't woken up. If the old concubine hadn't told him to hold his breath at the end, he must put aside the relationship to keep himself and Susu, he would have gone to face the saint or meet Han Zixing a long time ago. up.
Thinking about Mo Ziqian's few words over and over again, I always feel that there is a thread entangled in my mind, but I just can't see what it is. It seems that I have missed some important link a long time ago:
That day, the old concubine and Zhong Ruoying worked together to break through the royal prison, knocked Mo Ziqian unconscious and brought him back to the palace, Ling Yiran was able to heal Zhong Susu smoothly.But something unexpected happened, Zhong Susu didn't show any signs of getting better, instead he vomited blood.
All the people present were shocked and then fell silent. They still managed to control Zhong Susu with repeated injections.
"Didn't you say that you can save Susu in this way!" Zhong Ruoying lost her temper, but Mo Ziqian, who had spent so much effort to rob him, couldn't save Zhong Susu, and couldn't help shouting at the plain white one.
Still at this moment, a cold sweat broke out on the forehead, it shouldn't be like this, it should be able to save people, unless...
"Father, calm down, Mr. Yiran has tried his best." The old concubine finally persuaded.The scene turned cold for a while, and I didn't expect such a result in exchange for untold hardships. No one knew what to say, or just kept silent like this.
While everyone was looking at each other, Mo Ziqian woke up leisurely at this moment:
"You don't need to waste your energy, old concubine. Ziqian is not the master of Hall Baihu."
One sentence poured a basin of cold water on everyone who had been busy for many days, although everyone already had an answer in their hearts.
"Who is the real White Tiger Hall Master? Why did you plead guilty!" The old concubine was extremely annoyed, and she lost her calm appearance just now, and couldn't help but growl.What I thought was the dawn turned into a phantom, what should Susu do!
"That man robbed my only child. In order to protect the incense of my Mo family, Ziqian couldn't bear this charge, but I don't know who he is." Many days of prison life made this battle-tested general It was also a little too much, and I was weak when I spoke.
Before the old concubine could say anything in the future, the fire outside the palace was full of flames, shouts were everywhere, she was startled and hurriedly ordered someone to check.
After a while, the subordinates came to report that the third prince Han Zizhe had surrounded the palace with five hundred soldiers from the Pofeng battalion and Luo Yi's guard battalion. He was shouting to the inside of the palace to arrest the robbers and bring back Mo Ziqian.
"Old princess, hand me over to me!" Mo Ziqian closed his eyes when he heard the words, since death was nothing more than a death, his own death could protect the incense of the Mo family, and protect this family of heroes from being slaughtered innocently, so let him die.
"Oh, it's all fate!" The old concubine sighed, and struck Mo Ziqian unconscious with a knife in her hand...
"Qianxi, at this point, it's better to find a way out. These few people can't stop me!" Zhong Ruoying's usual composure is gone, and now Zhong Susu looks half-dead. If something goes wrong, then he really wants the white-haired man to send the black-haired man.After all, father and daughter are connected.
Lu Mingzi, who had been silent all the time, wanted to say something, but was stopped by the old concubine from speaking to Zhong Ruoying:
"No, Dad, you listen to me this time. Mingzi, don't get involved, and take Susu and Yiyi back to the Wu Palace. It is expected that the emperor will not touch your Wu Palace for a while, so Susu will leave it to you." You are gone, let's go, after that, destroy the secret path!"
"Old Concubine!" Lu Mingzi nodded fiercely with tears in his eyes, no longer hesitated, he hugged Zhong Susu in his arms, followed by Yi Yi and his wife, and walked into a secret passage that the old concubine had just opened.
After watching their figures disappear, the old princess closed the door of the secret passage, and turned to Zhong Ruoying:
"Father, you keep this token. If you keep it, you will save me." The old concubine quietly handed the small golden rhombus token to Zhong Ruoying through her wide sleeves, blocking the others intentionally or unintentionally. Sight.
Zhong Ruoying understood that she didn't want others to see the token, so she quickly hid it in her sleeve:
"This is... that token?"
"Ah."
"But father is still worried, can this token still have such a big effect now?"
"Father, although my daughter has been naughty and willful since she was a child, she is not a brainless person, and she will not make fun of her own life. If this token is useless..." The old princess whispered into Zhong Ruoying's ear, "Then Hong Ruofeng may have been killed Han Muyu has wiped out his entire family."
"Okay, then take care of yourself." Zhong Ruoying still looked back at her daughter worriedly.
"Yes. Father, Uncle Long and Uncle Li are going to pick up Yingying next door. You and Mo Ziqian will go together later. First, go to Zixing's Bieyuan to find a girl named Bingze. She is Yiran's junior sister and will take good care of her." Yingying, besides, don’t let Zixing know about this for the time being.” The old concubine said, and opened another secret passage...
Half an hour passed, and Han Zizhe was still waiting outside the gate of the mansion.It is not a last resort not to storm the palace, this is Han Muyu's order to him, and the purpose is not only to stabilize Han Zixing who is far away in the frontier.
While hesitating, the middle door of Prince Rui's mansion opened wide. To his surprise, the old concubine came out in a fine attire, and said to Han Zizhe:
"Mo Ziqian was robbed by me, Zhong Qianxi, and has nothing to do with others." There was no panic in his tone, it was more casual as if he was chatting with Han Zizhe about family matters.
"Old princess, please hand over Mo Ziqian!" Han Zizhe looked at the old princess and saw that there was no one behind her, so he said.
"Prince Ming, Han Zizhe, I, Zhong Qianxi, are the only ones you can take away today. Don't worry about the rest!" The old concubine walked up to Han Zizhe step by step, and looked directly at him, her eyes open and firm.
The moment the eyes met, Han Zizhe felt a little guilty, this look really resembled that senior.
"Come on, search Prince Rui's mansion thoroughly for this king, don't let go of any suspicious things! Old princess, I've offended you." Han Zizhe continued to entangle with the old concubine, waved at the soldiers behind him, and immediately someone rushed into the mansion.
"Oh, don't waste your efforts, the irrelevant people have already left, just take me back to my life!" The old princess's tone was full of sarcasm.
Han Zizhe frowned when he heard the words, and after a while, someone came to report that the palace was empty.The old concubine sneered upon hearing this, Prince Rui's residence originally had very few servants and everything was kept simple, but today it would be convenient.
"Continue searching for me, there must be a secret way." Han Zizhe was a little helpless.
"Yes, my lord." Another wave of people flooded into the palace.
"Why do you have to do it so badly!" The old concubine looked like a theatergoer at the moment, and sighed lightly, even if she found the secret path, it would be useless. It has been nearly half an hour, and the secret path should have been blown up up.
The old concubine looked at the busy soldiers coldly, without expressing anything.Since Han Zizhe was waiting, she might as well wait with him. It would be better to delay for a while.There were three wounded in the group, and they couldn't walk fast even if they thought about it.
"My lord, I found the secret passage, but it has collapsed, so I can't continue to follow in." A soldier rushed to report to Han Zizhe.
"Well, come back! Follow me back to the palace!" For some reason, I secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Han Zizhe glanced at the old concubine and sighed:
"Old princess, please!"
"It seems that the emperor treats my prisoner very well, and there is still a sedan chair!" The old princess looked at the sedan chair that was brought up behind her, and got in without hesitation.
Han Zizhe smiled wryly. He could still be so indifferent even now. I don't know if the old concubine is really indifferent to life or death or if she is out of her mind.
The large group of people stepped across the Qingshiban Street, and many sleepy people opened the windows curiously, but no one could see what happened.
What happened, who knows!
