Chapter 395: Madam's Escape Almost Cost Me My Life 1

Even though she noticed Zishu and Hexuan's slight surprise, Mengjiao's hands did not stop.

Her martial arts skills may not be the best in the world, but she knows exactly whether there are any secret guards following the emperor.

"I will go back to the palace first to report that I am safe. If Your Majesty is not busy, I will come to your house in person later to apologize to Your Majesty."

Zishu Hexuan was a little confused about her so-called apology.

As they were already close to the palace gate, he could only suppress the doubts in his heart and calmly walked out of the palace with her one after the other.

Outside the palace gate, compared to Qi Cheng and others who were standing neatly beside the carriage waiting, Nan Xiao and his companions were leading the horses, and no matter how orderly they were, it was still a little messy.

When Meng Jiao came out, she saw her beloved horse Wushuang, snorting loudly, trying to break free from Nan Xiao's shackles.

Especially when he saw her, he whimpered as if he had suffered some injustice, and stamped his hooves on the spot.

Meng Jiao bowed to Zishu and Hexuan in a strict manner, then turned around and walked towards Nanxiao and the others with a sullen face.

Nan Xiao was already accustomed to his boss's cold face, but the group of palace maids and eunuchs who followed him to give gifts were so frightened that they froze in place.

Everyone looked at each other, and no one had expected that the King of Chang'an didn't even have a carriage.

The fact was that the Qin family had originally arranged a comfortable carriage for pick-up, but before they set off, Meng Jiao persuaded them to go back.

In recent years, the national treasury has been somewhat empty due to the continuous wars, and the emperor has also become obsessed with elixirs of immortality, so Meng Jiao is sure that he will not reward her with anything valuable.

Looking at the dozen or so eunuchs and palace maids carrying gifts, in fact, except for the empress dowager's one hundred taels of gold which was taken away by Meng Jiao in a large cloth bag, the rest of the emperor's hairpins, earrings and the like could not even fill the bags of the people behind them.

The emperor didn't know at this time that Meng Jiao's mere return home on horseback had made his already precarious reputation even worse.

On the other side, in the Qin family's main courtyard, Yue Nishang had been frowning since she returned home in the afternoon. She kept walking around in the courtyard in a black training suit.

The way he bent over with his hands behind his back did not look at all like the dignified person he had when he was out.

Su Yin, who was sitting on the seat, was dazzled by her spinning and reluctantly reminded him,

"Don't turn around anymore. I'm getting dizzy. Jiaojiao will surely come back soon. If she sees you so impatient, how can you still be an elder..."

Hearing this, Yue Nishang curled her lips, turned around and walked towards the seat next to her.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he sat down, he saw that she was holding the book upside down, and he couldn't help but mutter,

"You're still blaming me, sister-in-law. You're holding your own book upside down..."

Su Yin lowered her head, and when she realized what she said was true, she simply stopped pretending.

"Forget it, since you can't sit still, let's go out of the house and wait together."

In the early autumn afternoon, the sun has not yet lost its summer heat. A few white clouds are lazily wandering around, unable to block the scorching sun.

There was a servant waiting at the corner of the street to deliver a message, but the two of them still waited at the gate of the mansion, eagerly waiting.

This wait is two hours.

After leaving the inner city, Meng Jiao hurried back to the Qin residence.

It's funny to say that although the little brat of the Qin family is young, he and his sister-in-law have the title of Marquis and First-class Lady.

However, the residence of this noble title was forcibly moved from the inner city to the outer city, which shows the so-called "alienation".

As soon as Meng Jiao and the others appeared at the corner of the long street, the servants ran all the way back to the mansion to report the news. They almost fell down several times because of ecstasy, and shouted happily along the way,

"The general is back, the general is back."

However, after all, it is just a pair of legs, how can it be faster than the four hooves of a horse?

Su Yin just heard the servants' call, and when she looked up she saw Meng Jiao riding back on horseback.

Accompanying her ears was the word "General", which had not been mentioned by people in the mansion for many years. This scene made her, who usually pretended to be dignified, feel a little dazed.

"General..."

When she came back to her senses, she saw her sister-in-law's slightly tired face, looking at her with worry in her eyes.

"Sister-in-law, are you feeling unwell? Call the court doctor to take a look."

"No, no need. I was just stunned by the joy of seeing you come back. Let's go back home."

Hearing her say this, Meng Jiao temporarily put her mind at ease and followed her into the mansion.

But she was still a little worried. She planned to wait until Qian Kun had sorted out the affairs in the capital and then go and ask if anyone had bullied them, an orphan and a widow.

Qin Nangui followed Meng Jiao eagerly. After receiving a pat on the head and a smile, the little guy had already forgotten the timidity he felt when he first met someone in the afternoon.

The look in his eyes when he looked at Meng Jiao at this moment was full of admiration.

After taking off her armor, Meng Jiao sat on the Qin family's main seat under the expectant gazes of her two sisters-in-law.

The family dismissed the servants and ate their dinner happily as before.

Su Yin did not ask her if her life in the frontier was hard. She just kept picking food for her and telling her some interesting stories in Beijing from time to time.

Meng Jiao didn't ask them whether it was difficult for them to live in Beijing. She just touched Qin Nangui's head, just like when her two brothers played with her head when she was a child...

The night is quiet and silent, the candlelight flickers,

Qi Cheng stood outside the study, observing the surroundings without blinking.

In the room, Zishu Hexuan squinted his eyes and stared at the burning incense clock without blinking.

The shape of the scented leaves is like a cloud, and one fold is considered one moment.

The clouds turned into incense ash, and in addition to the faint scent of plum blossoms, there was also a hint of moist woody scent at the tip of the nose.

After a long silence, the raindrops broke through the oppressive clouds, lightly and resolutely, knocking on the windows outside the house.

Zishu Hexuan stroked the ancient jade in his hand, and after a while he concentrated on making the incense stick again.

The sound of rain was fine but dense, and the incense and candles had burned out again.

Three fold and nine minutes later, he should take a break...

"Boom"

As Zishu Hexuan stood up, a clear sound of someone falling to the ground was heard from the door frame.

Noticing the silence of the secret guards around him, the inexplicable tension in his heart quietly dissipated.

Outside the door, Meng Jiao knocked down all the secret guards one by one and threw them into the house nearby. She took off the straw hat on her head and slowly pushed open the door of the study.

"My Lord, you haven't rested yet so late, are you waiting for me?"

Zishu Hexuan raised his eyes, looked into her eyes, and nodded without hesitation.

"kindness."

I didn't expect him to answer like this. Meng Jiao was stunned for a moment.

Then he moved his inner strength, and when he felt that the temperature on his body was about the same as that in the room, he moved closer to him step by step.

"Oh, it's rare that the prince doesn't blame me for breaking into Prince Jing's mansion at night."

Pushing the warm tea in his hand in front of Meng Jiao, Zishu Hexuan spoke calmly,

"I don't know why, General, but thank you very much."
