The Way of the Consort

When Ji Zhao woke up the next day, he sat on the bed. Chen Xing wiped his face with a hot cloth. I fell asleep on the boat again, and was carried back by someone again, right?"

"Yes……"

"I didn't blame you, I blamed myself, who made me fall asleep again." Ji Zhao muttered, "He put medicine in the mooncake."

"Really?!" Chen Xing was so frightened that he almost threw away the cloth towel.

Ji Zhao was speechless: "Of course I lied to you."

"... "

Ji Zhao was worried: "If he still comes today, what should we do?"

Chen Xing is also worried, whoever makes someone the prince will definitely not be able to compare.

"Forget it, forget it, I'm too lazy to think about such nonsense." Ji Zhao stepped on his shoes and got off the bed, "Call Yin Ming, I'll ask about Wen Guiren!"

The assassination of Wen Guiren started last night. No matter how angry Wen Guiren was, Renzong was furious because of it. After all, at the foot of the emperor, in Jinling City, there is a dignified prime minister's mansion, where people kill as they say, so there is no danger at all. ?Could it be that an assassin like this will go to the palace someday?

The Mid-Autumn Festival banquet in the palace ended in a hurry last night. According to what Yin Ming heard, there were many people on the street on the night of Mid-Autumn Festival. For the sake of safety, there were already many imperial guards patrolling.As soon as the assassin killed Wen Guiren, he was discovered by the people of Wenfu. When the assassin fled, the forbidden army also noticed and immediately helped to chase him. The imperial army searched for the assassin all over the city.

It's a pity that the assassin was not found until this morning.

After the incident happened last night, although the people did not fully understand what was going on, they only saw the forbidden soldiers walking around in the city, and they knew that it was not a trivial matter. No one dared to hang out anymore, so the streets were so quiet. Now everyone knows that Wen Guiren is dead.

Wen Guiren is also considered a celebrity in Beijing. He was blind earlier, and everyone applauded.

Now that he died, people began to sympathize with him, which is human nature. Even Ji Zhao was a little bit sad. After all, it was a bit unexpected to die in a heavily guarded home on such a reunion day.

Chen Xing asked him: "Lang Jun, tell me, who killed him?"

"How would I know, he has many enemies."

"Could it be the righteous man from last time?"

Ji Zhao shook his head: "Impossible, if that person wants to kill him, he did it last time."

"There are so many imperial guards looking for him all over the city, but they can't find him. He must be very skilled, right? He can fly over walls! These days, we still don't go out, the city is not safe."

Hearing this, Ji Zhao couldn't help frowning. Speaking of which, he never ran around, but he was not afraid. The one who loves to run around is the psychopath in the palace.According to the grandfather's words, the prince has more enemies, the prince runs around all day long, and especially likes to leave the palace in the middle of the night, and he is not afraid of being caught and assassinated.

Ji Zhao pursed his lips secretly, and said to Chen Xing, "Pack up your things, let's go to the princess mansion to stay for a few days."

Chen Xing's eyes lit up: "That's right! If that's the case, no one will come!"

"hope so……"

Chen Xing went to pack his things, Ji Zhao frowned and looked out the window in a daze, hoping that in the past few nights, that psychopath would not come out at night again, the city is really not safe, and the assassin hasn't caught him yet.

Zong Zhen didn't sleep all night, and after returning from Ji Zhao's house, he was called by his father to discuss matters.

After waiting for the news all night, he still didn't catch that person. Zong Zhen felt a little admiration in his heart. He didn't know how the person escaped. Logically speaking, there must be traces to follow, but the person followed and suddenly disappeared. gone.Last time, Chen Keye went to follow that person himself, and finally found out that person's foothold was at the foot of Dabaoen Temple Mountain, an ordinary farmer's house.

It's just that the man was too alert, even Chen Keye didn't dare to underestimate the enemy, and he only dared to follow from a distance, never seeing the man's face.

The gate of the city was closed early last night, presumably that person failed to escape from the city, Zong Zhen didn't know where he was hiding at this time, he was not some kind of god, and such a person was always a cunning rabbit.Zong Zhen is not in a hurry, with him as the bait here, those people will always appear again and again, what is he so anxious about, those people are the ones who are in a hurry.

After returning from Yanfu Hall, he took a nap, and when he got up, it was already dark, and he planned to change his clothes to find Ji Zhao.

When he was about to leave last night, the sleeping Ji Zhao held his hand and refused to let him go. He must have been scared by the assassin. He was a little worried and had to go and see.

Bao Qing whispered: "Your Highness, the son-in-law has gone to the Princess's residence, and it is said that he has brought a lot of things, and he may have to stay for a few days."

Zong Zhen was stunned for a moment, and said "Oh".

Bao Qing was about to retreat when Zong Zhen called him back: "Let's go to the princess' mansion."

"..." Baoqing didn't know what to say in his heart. What about their highness? Why bother to find excitement? The relationship between the son-in-law and the princess is so good... But he didn't want to say much when his highness spoke, so he had to hug Cheng Shen quietly. With a sympathetic heart, he accompanied His Highness out of the palace.

Princess Fuchen was very depressed. When Ji Zhao came to her house and saw her, he was also a little frightened, but she didn't look like she was sick.

Princess Fuchen reluctantly smiled at him, without saying a word, she continued to lie on the bed in a daze, while Ji Zhao stood on the porch and asked Qing Jin in a low voice, "What's wrong with the princess?"

Qing Jin and the other personal servants all knew that the son-in-law and the princess had never had sex at all, and it was hard to tell the son-in-law about such a private matter as the princess's menstruation, so Qing Jin could only evade it.

Ji Zhao couldn't speak, and there was nothing he could do. Everyone was in a bad mood, so maybe Princess Fuchen was also in a bad mood.He took a book, sat on the couch under the window and read it quietly, as if to accompany Princess Fuchen.

Princess Fuchen looked at the top of the bed, only the black figure from last night was in her mind, as she thought about it, tears flowed quietly again.

Last night, she was shocked, surprised, sad and desperate.

Adding up the two lives, she has actually not seen Pei Rong for many years. In her previous life, even if she tried her best to bully Ji Zhao and admire beautiful men all over the world, she never had a day when she was really happy. The young man who always stood by Xiaolu's side and smiled lightly at her rescued her and comforted her time and time again.

He is different from all the people around him who blindly dote on her, and she also thinks that she is also different to him.

It wasn't until last night that she suddenly realized that that person was not just an ordinary deer raising boy.

After the person left, Princess Fuchen gradually came to her senses. In this life, Pei Rong was chased away by her brother, but it was only a year ago. In Jinling City, it also attracted the whole city's forbidden army to dispatch?

He also killed Wen Guiren, and he might even be the one who blinded Wen Guiren a while ago.

In her heart, the purest young man could easily take his life.

Thinking of this, Princess Fuchen cried even more sadly, brother was right, Pei Rong is indeed not an ordinary person, so why did Pei Rong approach her as a princess?Why did Pei Rong kill Wen Guiren?Who else will Pei Rong kill?

Who is Pei Rong?

She didn't even know, was he really called Pei Rong?

If there was no way out, would Pei Rong still come to her princess mansion?Pei Rong has been in Jinling City all along, and she saw it right on the night of Shangyuan Festival!Pei Rong came to see her at the princess mansion in order to escape, he knew exactly how much she missed him.

Pei Rong, are you using her?

Thinking of this, Princess Fuchen couldn't restrain herself anymore, and cried out loudly.

Ji Zhao put down the book, went to the bed, and bent over to look at her worriedly: "Princess, what's wrong with you?"

Princess Fuchen raised her eyes and saw Ji Zhao's worried eyes, crying even louder. She thought that no matter how stupid she was in her previous life, at least there was nothing wrong with liking Pei Rong. This is the most cherished existence in her heart.At this time, she didn't understand, did she really do everything wrong?

"Princess?"

Princess Fuchen suddenly got up, threw herself into Ji Zhao's arms, and cried loudly. Ji Zhao heard it very sad. He rarely heard such a sad cry. He and the princess have known each other for more than a year. Although they are married couples, they get along well Well, the princess is two years older than him, but in his heart, the princess is like a younger sister, and girls need to be cherished.

He put his arms around Princess Fuchen's waist, and patted her on the back comfortingly: "Don't cry, don't cry."

"Did I do something wrong, did I do something wrong, I'm sorry, I was all wrong, woo woo woo..."

Princess Fuchen whimpered and said scattered words, but Ji Zhao didn't understand, but kept patting her on the back comfortingly. Princess Fuchen stretched out her arms and hugged Ji Zhao's neck tightly, as if holding the float. Wood, cried heartily.

Zong Zhen stood by the door of the inner room, looking at the two hugging each other, he was gradually fascinated.

Ji Zhao turned his face from time to time, talking softly to Fu Chen, with his lips next to her ear, Fu Chen cried and nodded or shook his head, hugging Ji Zhao even tighter, Ji Zhao turned his back to him, and gently patted Fu Chen's cheek back.

The two are immersed in their own small world, whether they are sad or happy, they will not know that there is someone watching them behind them.

It's good that they have each other.

Nothing to do with others.

Zong Zhen twitched the corner of his mouth again, took a step back, turned around and left quietly.

Qing Jin and the others stood by the door with their heads bowed and their waists bowed, all respectful.

Zong Zhen said softly: "She didn't like to cry in front of me since she was a child, let alone I have been here."

"Yes, the maidservants know."

Zong Zhen walked down the steps without looking back.

After crying for a while, Princess Fuchen recovered a lot. She retracted her arms in embarrassment: "I let you see a joke, and your clothes were wet from crying..."

"Where is it? If you are in a bad mood in the future, it is not easy to tell others, just come to me!"

Princess Fuchen looked at him and smiled at him.

Ji Zhao didn't ask her why she was crying. If there was something easy to say, Princess Fuchen would have said it long ago.

Princess Fuchen tightened her grip on the quilt, looked at him, and said: "It's not that I don't trust the son-in-law and I don't want to tell him, but I don't know how to say it."

Ji Zhao helped her straighten the quilt, and said with a smile, "Why would I care about this? I also have bad moods and want to cry, wishing I were the only one in the world, so what's the matter?"

Princess Fuchen was so teased that she burst into tears, and Ji Zhao wiped her tears again: "Are you hungry?"

"It seems that I am really hungry..."

"I asked them to prepare some food. I just haven't eaten yet. I'm going to change clothes. Shall we eat together?"

"it is good……"

Ji Zhao got up with a smile, and went next door to change clothes. Princess Fuchen took a deep breath and let it out, and the depression in her heart dissipated a lot.

In the evening, Princess Fuchen fell asleep early, but Ji Zhao couldn't sleep, tossing and turning, he still didn't fall asleep in the middle of the night, he got up, quietly walked out of the bedroom, the eunuch who was watching the night in the corridor immediately got up and saluted him.He waved his hand and went ahead to find Chen Xing and the others, they couldn't enter the backyard of the Princess Mansion.

Chen Xing was surprised to see him: "Why haven't you slept yet?!"

"I can't sleep, is that person here? Did you go to the Hou Mansion?"

Chen Xing said with a smile: "Don't worry! I didn't come! I didn't go to the Hou Mansion either! Brother Yin Ming went back several times!"

"Oh……"

"Go back to sleep quickly!" Chen Xing pushed him and sent him back to the backyard. Ji Zhao walked to Princess Fuchen's bedroom alone, and looked up at the still round moon in the sky. Unspeakable loss.

How strange, he thought.

The assassin was never found, and the gate of Jinling City could not have been closed for Wen Guiren. On the third day, the gate opened, and it became even more impossible for the assassin to find him.

People in the world are always forgetful, and within a few days, no matter whether it was gloating or sad, almost no one in the city discussed the matter of Wen Guiren anymore.

Ji Zhao lived in the princess mansion for five days, and that person never appeared again.

Ji Zhao felt that he was a little funny. In fact, he thought too much. It was probably just a few days before he was exposed. Suddenly being treated like that by him made me feel unhappy, so I kept looking for him for a few days.

On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, his attitude was slightly better, and that person probably felt that it was almost the same, so he would not come to him again.

The more Ji Zhao thought about it, the angrier he became, and Princess Fuchen's mood had returned to normal, so he packed up his things and went home.

This day also happened to be the day of Wen Guiren's burial, and it was very grand and lively, and even a little against the rules. Even Renzong turned a blind eye to the pain of Wen Guiren's bereavement. It is said that many people went to the funeral. look from the street.

Of course, it was impossible for Ji Zhao to join in this kind of excitement, and he didn't allow anyone in his family to watch it, so he just stayed at home.When he got home, he asked Chen Xing to take the scorpion, carried the fishing rod by himself, and went fishing in the garden.

Before the fish was caught, Wei's mother hurried over and said anxiously: "Mr. Lang! He Qiniang is here! I want to see you! There is something urgent! It is really urgent!"

"Then let her come..."

The news that He Qiniang brought was really big news. Today, the funeral procession of the Wen Family went out of the city. She hated Wen Guiren, so she also went to see it. The blood book is Wen Guiren's tone, saying that he was wronged, that he was murdered by a traitor. There are many common people and famous nobles who went to watch today. So many pieces of paper were spilled, and there was chaos on the spot. Everyone They looted the pieces of paper, and later someone put together a few pieces of paper, and the superior said that it was the concubine Ji Zhao who killed Wen Guiren.

After hearing He Qiniang's words, Ji Zhao turned back to look at the water, but was in a daze, when suddenly the fishing rod was heavy.

Chen Xing yelled in a hurry: "It's the bait, it's the bait!"

Ji Zhao came back to his senses, got up and quickly pulled the fish up.

He Qiniang said anxiously: "My son-in-law! What should we do?"

Ji Zhao took the fish down, squatted down again, and released the fish. He patted the water and said, "Go on, swim freely."

He got up, did not answer He Qiniang's words, picked up the fishing rod and walked back.

"Lang Jun, stop fishing?" Chen Xing asked anxiously.

Ji Zhao thought, what a ghost!

That psychopath just doesn't want to let him go!It must be the prince again!

He can't stay here anymore!
