Rebirth of the King of the World

Jiang Yuan paused at this point, and did not speak again for a long time. Jun Lu was a little worried, and after hesitating for a moment, he finally asked, "Then did you go to Changle Palace?" He had actually guessed that if Jiang Yuan went After entering Changle Palace, he might not hate the prince so much.

Jiang Yuan lowered his head slightly, looked at Jun Lu quietly for a moment from the corner of his eye, and said sadly, "Of course it's gone."

"I have been to the palace quite a few times since I was a child, but most of them went to Changle Palace, and sometimes I also played in the Imperial Garden, but I have never been to Changxin Palace. The prince is not in good health, and we have been instructed by our elders. Dare to disturb him easily. If we hadn’t met in Yuhuayuan that day, and he said so pitifully, I wouldn’t have gone with him.” Jiang Yuan’s self-deprecating smile was evident in his eyes, and he smiled He continued: "How pitiful is the prince, he has been used to this trick since he was a child, making everyone feel that they should let him go."

"I'm the most pitiful one. I was sold and helped to count the money, and I even got involved with Ah Ning." Mentioning Ji Ning, the hatred in Jiang Yuan's eyes deepened, and his expression was extremely solemn, making him not blink Looking at him, Jun Lv had an even worse premonition in his heart.

"The East Palace is too big. The first time I went there, I couldn't find my way. I got lost when I ran out of the prince's bedroom. Aning told me to go to Changle Palace. My mother and aunt are there, and the queen mother and grandmother are also there. Just find them." , the prince will not dare to do anything to us."

"But I couldn't get out of the East Palace at all. I walked around in a small circle, and I didn't even know where I was. At this moment, I heard the footsteps of many people behind me. I don't know if the prince sent someone. Come to catch me, just want to find a place to hide."

"I don't want to be caught by the prince. His eyes staring straight at people are too scary, as if he wants to tear people apart with his eyes. I have never seen a person's eyes so scary before. I dare not imagine what would happen if I was caught by him.”

Even though he was close at hand, Jun Lu felt that Jiang Yuan's voice came from far away, revealing a faint sense of emptiness.

Jun Lu couldn't tell what was going through his mind at the time, anyway, he held Jiang Yuan's hand and patted the back of his hand lightly.

Jiang Yuan smiled gratefully, shook Jun Lu hard, and continued, "I didn't want to be caught by them, so I ran desperately, looking for a place to hide while running. Then I unexpectedly I found a dog hole in the corner, the hole was very small, I could get through it, but adults couldn’t get through, so I happily got in, those people were already chasing very close, I couldn’t run them.”

"Unexpectedly, there is an abandoned yard on the other side of the hole. The house inside is dilapidated and looks like it has not been lived in for a long time. What's worse, the gate of that yard is locked. I can't get out unless I go in. It came out of a dog hole, but there were already people outside."

"I didn't dare to go back the same way, and I couldn't go out, so I wandered around in the old house, and finally I found the entrance of the secret passage. I don't know where the secret passage leads to, but I have nowhere to go, because those My pursuers have broken through the gate and come in."

"The secret passage is dark, you can't see anything, and the air is very dirty. It's uncomfortable to stay in it to breathe. I don't know how I was so courageous at that time, and I dared to go there without knowing anything. Go forward, and don’t be afraid that if you get lost, you won’t be able to get out again.”

Seeing Jiang Yuan stopped again, I don't know if he was tired or didn't want to talk about it, Jun Lu said softly: "If you feel unhappy when you say these things, then don't say it; if you feel more comfortable to say it, Then I'm all ears."

Jiang Yuan turned his head and glanced at Jun Lu, the silence in his eyes dissipated a lot, and he looked much more alive.

"At that time, I didn't know how long I had been in the secret passage. Anyway, I just kept walking. If a road was blocked, I would make a mark and go on another road. Maybe I was lucky. I came from Changle. When I came out of the palace, I brought snacks with me, and there was also underground water seeping out of nowhere in the secret passage. In short, I ate snacks when I was hungry, looked for water when I was thirsty, and found a dry place to squat for a while when I was sleepy. The secret passage is special. Hei, there is no sound at all, I am afraid to talk to myself, talking non-stop..."

"Later, the snacks were all gone, and I could only drink water when I was hungry. At that time, I had already discovered three different secret passage exits, but I didn't know where those exits led to, let alone what the situation outside was like. , so I have been afraid to go out."

Speaking of which, Jun Lu's admiration for Jiang Yuan spontaneously arises. A child who is only six years old, after being forced to hide in an unfamiliar secret passage, can find three different exits in an orderly manner. What a strong mentality Quality is by no means something that ordinary people can achieve.

"Then how did you go out later? Was it because you were hungry?" Jun Lu was suspicious, and Jiang Yuan's chattering habit was formed at that time.

Jiang Yuan nodded, and continued Jun Lu's words: "You must have never tasted the feeling of being hungry. When a person is really hungry to the extreme, all fears will disappear. At that time, I was thinking, as long as I can go back I’m going home, I’m sure I’ll never be a picky eater again.”

For the 13-year-old Jun Lu, Jiang Yuan's words are true, Jun Lan and Princess Xie have never made him hungry.

But today's Junlu was reborn from the 25th year of Zhengde. He has been in the cold palace for 18 years. He has eaten everything that can be eaten. How could he not be hungry? So what he said to Jiang Yuan This feeling is sympathetic.

Jun Lu didn't tell Jiang Yuan what he thought, he just asked indifferently: "Where did you come from?" At this time, Jiang Yuan was already familiar with the secret passages of the East Palace, Jun Lu guessed that he later came Been back, more than once.

"You'll know when you come with me." Jiang Yuan didn't answer Jun Lv's question directly this time, but played tricks a little.

Knowing that he would never ask Jiang Yuan again, Jun Lu shrugged slightly, and let him take his hand and walk away.

Jiang Yuan led Jun Lu to walk around in the dark passage, Jun Lu silently recalled the map in his mind, feeling that they were heading towards Weiyang Palace.

Half a quarter of an hour later, Jiang Yuan stopped, raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "Little friend, guess what's up there?"

"Changqiu Palace." Jun Lu replied without thinking, he was so familiar with the palace, he knew where he was even with his eyes closed.

Now it was Jiang Yuan's turn to be surprised, he was dumbfounded and said: "How did you know?" Jun Lu can enter the palace several times, and the direction of the secret passage does not coincide with the road on the ground, how could he know that this is Weiyang Palace , I also know that it is the Changqiu Palace, which is incredible.

Weiyang Palace is the residence of the queens of the Dayan Dynasty. It is divided into three halls and six palaces. The first three halls are Zhongren Hall, Changqiu Hall and Yongchun Hall. .

Today's palace banquet was held in Zhongren Hall, the main hall of Weiyang Palace, very close to Changqiu Hall.

"I am very sensitive to directions. As long as I have been to a place once, I can draw an accurate map when I look back."

"What?!" Jiang Yuan was too frightened to speak.He always thought that his sense of direction was pretty good. When he was a child, he wandered around the secret passages of the East Palace for a few days. When he grew up, he found out the secret passages of most of the palace. Who knew that Jun Lu was even more exaggerated than him.

Jun Lu didn't want to get entangled in whose sense of direction was better, so he simply asked a question that he already knew the answer to: "Did anyone see you when you came out of Changqiu Palace?"

"You'll know if you go up with me and have a look?" Jiang Yuan said as he activated the door opening device of the secret passage.

Jun Lu now thinks about it, Jiang Yuan's luck is not extremely bad, because the secret passage from Changxin Palace to Weiyang Palace is unknown to Empress Shangguan and Crown Prince Wei Yi, and its exit is very secret. Absolutely no one will be here.

Standing in the backyard of the empty side hall of Changqiu Hall, Jun Lu said what he was thinking: "It seems that your luck is not too bad." Jun Lu didn't dare to think about it anymore.

"As I said before, when people are so hungry that they are going crazy, they don't know how to write the word fear. At that time, I was thinking about big oily meat buns. How could I think of being seen by others?" What will be the consequences? There is no time to think about those."

After all, Jiang Yuan appeared in Weiyang Palace. Even if there was no one in this remote courtyard at the time, if he wanted to go out, he would definitely meet the palace servants of Weiyang Palace. Jun Lu then asked: "Who first discovered you?" ?”

Jiang Yuan shook his head and said softly: "I don't know. When I came out of the secret passage, I was already so hungry that I had no strength left in my body. I don't know where I am. I subconsciously felt that I couldn't stay in that yard. I had to The farther I walked, the better. But I lost consciousness not long after I walked, and I wasn’t even sure if I had walked out of the Changqiu Palace. Of course, I didn’t know that this was the Changqiu Palace at that time. When I woke up, It's already at home, my mother and grandma are standing by the bed, their eyes are red."

"I was terrified at the time, and immediately asked them where Aning was, and wanted to find him. Aning told me and told me to go to Changle Palace, but not only did I not go, I almost fucked myself too. Lost. My mother stopped me, she said that Ah Ning had gone home."

"I don't believe that I was clamoring to see Aning, but I stayed in the secret tunnel for four days, and I only ate two packs of snacks in total, and I didn't even have the strength to get up. I told my mother to ask Aning to come to my house." Look at me, I don’t know why, I was just very scared at that time.”

"My mother still refuses. She said that Ah Ning has chickenpox, can't see the wind, and can infect others. I was already sick. If the two of us meet and infect each other, it will be terrible. I Believe it to be true, and don’t insist on it anymore.”

"Actually, I wasn't sick, but I was too hungry at the time, and I recovered after a few days of feeding. On the contrary, Aning was sick for a long time. Later, I asked him how he left Changxin Palace. He said that his aunt went to look for him later, so he said Went back with her. He also said that I had been gone for four whole days. Everyone was terrified. The emperor's uncle almost ordered the palace to be turned over. My father and mother were so anxious that they almost went crazy. But then I found out Ah Ning had chickenpox when she was more than one year old, and people who have chickenpox once will never get chickenpox again, they lied to me."

When Jiang Yuan talked about this, it was self-evident where his hatred for the crown prince came from. Jun Lu didn't ask much about Ji Ning, but asked: "No one asked you how long you have been for four days?" Where? How did you explain it to them?"

"Of course someone asked, first my father, my mother, my grandma, and then my uncles, aunts, and grandmothers. Everyone asked me more than once." Recalling the experience of being annoyed by others, Jiang Yuan's expression was slightly melancholy, It was obviously a very unpleasant memory for him.

"Have you explained it to everyone?" Jun Lu felt that if such an experience happened to him, he would definitely go crazy.

Jiang Yuan nodded, and said as a matter of course: "More than once, they asked once, and I said it twice, and the content of what I said was different each time. At the end of the question, even I myself was not sure what the truth was. , and no one will ask me any more."

Jun Lu was ashamed, and said after a long while: "Then what you told me today, isn't it that you are not even sure?"

"What do you think?" Jiang Yuan raised his eyebrows and smiled, and gave Jun Lu an ambiguous answer.

Jun Lu refused to speculate, and directly took what Jiang Yuan said as the truth. He estimated that even if there were discrepancies, it was only in the details, and it was generally correct.Jiang Yuan could tell him to accompany him to the East Palace to watch the fun, how could he make up lies about this kind of thing to fool him.

Relying on good lightness kung fu and familiarity with the route, Jiang Yuan and Jun Lu went back to Zhong Ren Dian smoothly.

Even though the emperor and his wife were still absent, the atmosphere in Zhongren Hall was much more normal than when they left.

Several adult princes did not stay in their seats, but warmly greeted the courtiers.

"See, they all think he doesn't exist anymore." Jiang Yuan touched Jun Lu with his shoulder and said gloatingly.

Jun Lu didn't speak, and stared at Wei Ying's back for a while.Compared with Wei Sheng, who was outstanding, Wei Ying's actions tonight can be said to be very low-key, but Jun Lu believes that the impression he left on the ministers present may be the best among the princes.

Emperor Shenyou is a very suspicious person. He is so angry that he is not in the mood to care about it at the moment, but when he calms down, he will definitely intervene.

Wei Sheng is too high-profile, and it is easy to capsize in the gutter. Only by being careful and low-key like Wei Ying, can he have the last laugh.

Not long after, the emperor sent someone to pass the word, saying that the palace banquet was over, and told everyone to go back to their homes.

The emperor didn't say a word about the farce that happened earlier, and the big guys naturally pretended that nothing happened and left one after another.

"I have something to do these few days, I will come to your house to see you in a few days." Before parting, Jiang Yuan whispered to Jun Lu.

Jun Lu nodded slightly: "As long as I'm not in class, you can come anytime." As long as you don't go to ethnology, it will be fine.
