The wind is blowing

The five days passed in a blink of an eye, and in a blink of an eye it was the day of the competition with Bailiqi.

The whole city was watching this battle, and everyone was concerned and curious about whether the three children Mei Changsu taught could defeat Bailiqi.

Therefore, when Xiao Jingyan and Princess Nihuang came to the Hall of Martial Heroes together, what he saw was Mei Changsu who was comforting and encouraging the three children.

"It's rare that His Highness came to watch the battle today."

"The whole city is watching this battle, there is no reason not to watch it."

Xiao Jingyan smiled coincidentally.

"I don't see any nervousness on Mr.'s face. I think Mr. must be confident in this competition. Why, is Mr. still unwilling to tell Nihuang the secret?"

A few days ago, Princess Nihuang also paid a visit to Mei Changsu, just to find out about him.She didn't know why Mei Changsu still looked confident when it was clear that Bailiqi couldn't win with three children.It's a pity that the other party just didn't want to tell her the reason.

"As long as the desired goal can be achieved, that's enough. Why does the princess have to know?"

Seeing that Mei Changsu still didn't intend to say anything, Nihuang couldn't go any further, so he could only give up.

Nihuang originally planned to enter the hall to wait, but Mei Changsu stopped her again, expressing that she had something private to say.

Seeing this, Xiao Jingyan, who had vaguely guessed in his heart, remained silent, and went straight away.In his previous life, he actually felt that everything was set up by Xiaoshu, and it was really wrong to take advantage of everyone.

Bailiqi himself was the one who was recruited by Jiang Zuomeng'an in this martial arts competition. Under Mei Changsu's arrangement, the three children naturally won the competition without any suspense.

Emperor Liang was happy for a moment, and he generously gave the three children that Princess Nihuang and Mei Changsu were vying for.

After the banquet, Mei Changsu and Nihuang walked out of the Hall of Martial Heroes together.As soon as he stepped down the steps, he ran into the female officer next to the queen who came to invite Princess Nihuang to a banquet.

The two who had prepared earlier didn't think much of it. After exchanging glances with each other, Nihuang followed the female officer and left.

Xiao Jingyan doesn't care about the turmoil on their side for the time being.Today coincided with Shuo Ri, as soon as the competition was over, he rushed to his mother's Zhiluo Palace.

"My son has seen his mother."

Seeing his mother who loved and understood him all his life, Xiao Jingyan couldn't help but knelt down and bowed.After Xiaoshu's death in the previous life, his will was depressed a lot, and he was full of thoughts about bringing Yichen up as soon as possible, and looking for Xiaoshu after the country was well governed.In the end, he let his mother, a white-haired man, give him a black-haired man. He was really unfilial.

"You child, you have come as soon as you come. Why do you suddenly give such a big gift? Get up quickly and show your mother. I haven't seen you for such a long time. I'm afraid you've lost weight again."

As early as today's early morning, Concubine Jing started cooking while waiting for her son.She knows that Jingyan will definitely come, so why not wait for her right now?

"It's been a long time since I left Beijing this time, and I miss my mother very much."

"When I came back this time, my mouth became sweeter. You, you didn't bring Yichen here today. I haven't seen him for a long time, and I don't know if this child has grown taller."

Pulling Xiao Jingyan to sit down at the table, Concubine Jing served him a bowl of chicken soup, with a mother's chatter in her mouth.

"Mother, don't be in a hurry to get food for the son. The son won't be here for long. I have something to say to my mother."

Hearing what Xiao Jingyan said, Concubine Jing paused with her hand that was holding something, and put down the chopsticks as well.

"Xiaoxin, you guys go down first."

"Yes, ma'am."

The woman in the red court lady's attire responded softly, and slowly exited the room with the other women.

"Jingyan, did something happen?"

Sitting down beside Xiao Jingyan, Concubine Jing asked with concern.

"Mother, I suspect that Xiaoshu is back."

Even Concubine Jing, who has always been calm, couldn't help but change her expression after hearing the news from her son, and hurriedly asked:

"Are you sure?"

"No, I'm just guessing, but it's almost inseparable. Has mother heard of a poison called fire cold poison?"

"Fire cold poison?"

After Xiao Jingyan asked such a question, Concubine Jing couldn't help recalling the records about this most strange poison in the world that she had read in a medical book when she was young.

Thinking of the two detoxification methods about the fire-cold poison, Concubine Jing understood in an instant, and tears couldn't stop streaming down.

"It's hard for this child, how much he has to suffer for rasping the bones and peeling the poison!"

"Mother, don't be too sad. Since Xiao Shu finally survived, it is already a blessing in misfortune."

Reaching out to wrap his arms around his mother, Xiao Jingyan felt uncomfortable.Even if it wasn't the first time he had heard of it, he couldn't stop the pain in his heart.

"Jingyan, I have a rough idea of ​​what you are going to say today. I have never been noticed in this palace. Although I am low and weak, there is no problem in protecting myself."

Concubine Jing wiped away the tears from her face, looked at her son, and said:

"Since you've already made up your mind, then go ahead and don't worry about me. But you have to remember, since Xiao Shu didn't tell you that he's back, then don't say anything. He must have his own thoughts , you have to cooperate with him well."

"Mother, don't worry, Jingyan knows it well."

After coming back from Beijing this time, Concubine Jing felt that Xiao Jingyan was really more stable, and felt relieved, nodded and said:

"It's good that you understand. Since you have something to do, then you can go to work first. Don't forget to send someone to take it back after eating. I think Yichen also likes to eat."

"Mother should also take care of herself, and my son will leave."

Xiao Jingyan bid farewell to Concubine Jing, and not long after leaving Zhiluo Palace, he bumped into Meng Zhi with a worried face.After listening to his words, he hurried to Zhaoren Palace where Concubine Yue was located.

Everything was almost the same as in the previous life. He supported Nihuang who was trying to rush out at the door, and he led her out, until he was stopped by the guards of Zhaoren Palace.Nothing has changed, except that when Concubine Yue ordered him to be shot, he did not hold the crown prince as a hostage like in his previous life, but kept chopping down the flying arrows with the knife in his hand.

Anyway, the queen should be coming soon, and if she can try her best to reduce one charge against Emperor Liang, just one less charge.

The announcement of the arrival of the Empress Dowager and the Empress sounded outside the door. From the corner of Xiao Jingyan's eyes, he caught a glimpse of the panicked expressions on the faces of Concubine Yue and the Crown Prince, and the tight string in his mind finally relaxed a little.

Sometimes, the crisis often comes from the moment when you let go of your mind.After Xiao Jingyan seldom flew the arrow that was mistakenly shot at Nihuang with some nervousness, another arrow had already pierced right into his left shoulder.

"Stop it! Stop it!"

After seeing this scene, the prince really panicked, and hurriedly yelled to stop.He was a little timid, and the order to shoot the arrow just now was also given by his mother and concubine.Now the queen is about to come in, if Jingyan is not injured, it's okay, he can get away with it.But he and his concubine could not escape the crime of being injured and mutilating the prince, so what should we do now!

Today Prince Jing was wearing the white outer garment embroidered with azure patterns, so when the Empress came in with the Empress Dowager supported, the blood-stained garment on the wound on Prince Jing's left shoulder was particularly conspicuous scary.

"Oh, isn't this Xiaoyan? Why is there so much blood on his shoulders! Is there anyone? Go and call the imperial doctor! And who is the child on the ground? Why is he lying on the ground? No one came Help me."

Regardless of the guards in the courtyard who were too late to disperse, the Empress Dowager was frightened by the situation of the two children as soon as she entered.Standing next to the two children, he turned around in a hurry, looking at this for a while, and that for a while.

For a while, the scene became quiet, and only the old lady's anxious urging was left in the courtyard.
