The Fate of the Red Chamber

Chapter 71: First Encounter

Slightly frowned eyebrows, tightly pursed lips, suet white jade-like skin shining with a warm luster of fine porcelain, a thin layer of pink sweat adds a touch of pity to the frailty, messy blue hair has a A faint charm.The willow waist is slender, graceful like a lotus in the wind, and it is lighter than a feather when held in the arms. The long skirt with water red bamboo leaves and plum blossoms on the moon white background is elegant and exquisite, and the fragrance that seems to be absent rushes into the nose and heart.Thousands of pride turned into soft fingers.

Liu Xuan stared blankly at the girl who he did not want to save but saved, his heart, which was always as calm as water, rippled layer after layer, hitting his heart slowly, and suddenly regretted his impulsiveness just now.

Qingyue didn't care about who saved her, she jumped up a few steps and rushed to Liu Xuan's side, about to take Daiyu from his arms: "Miss, miss."

Liu Xuan turned slightly to one side, dodging Qingyue's hand, and a hint of anger appeared on his stern face: "Don't move, she just passed out."

"You, thank you for saving my master, please return her to me now." Qingyue knew that she had been reckless, so she restrained herself and saluted before going to pick up Daiyu.

"Who are you?" The tone was as usual, gentle but indifferent.

"I have already thanked you, there is no need to report our identities to you." Qingyue was a little anxious, what's the matter with this person, he hugged the girl and refused to let go, there are so many people watching, the girl's boudoir They all have influence, so it's possible that they are not good people.Thinking in this way, he scrutinized Liu Xuan.

The dark and deep eyes are full of charming color; the thick eyebrows, high nose, and beautiful lip shape are elegant and elegant in a low-key manner.The plain hang silk gown could not conceal the natural kingly aura on his body, but a kind of cold coolness permeated his whole body.It is a handsome young man, Qingyue knows that the people in front of her are extraordinary, and they are weak at the moment, so it is better not to fight head-on.

Just as she was about to speak, the horse's hooves were flying in the distance, Qingyue's heart tightened, and she hurriedly looked back, fortunately, it was Wan Chaozong who brought people here.Seeing that it was Qingyue, Wan Chaozong knew that the princess must be there, turned upright and rushed over, and suddenly saw another group of people, so he took a closer look, Prince Yicheng.

Concealing his doubts, he knelt down and saluted: "Wan Chaozong, the chief guard of Cheng'en County Prince's Mansion, sees Lord Yicheng." The rest of the people followed Wan Chaozong to salute, only Qingyue's eyelids twitched slightly, and she made a half-squat salute.

"Guard Wan, get up. Could it be that she is the Princess Hanxiang of your mansion?" Liu Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly, Lin Mohan's frail and sickly sister was actually her, no wonder she had such a demeanor.

"If you go back to the prince, it is the princess. The minister escorted the princess back to the city from Qingxuguan, and encountered a surprise attack." The sudden incident, I am afraid that it cannot be hidden from the prince's eyes, let alone escorting the princess with his hand Going back to the city is a good thing to tell the truth.

Liu Xuan's thick brows were furrowed. Someone dared to kidnap a princess in an important place in the capital. This is not unusual. You must investigate carefully when you go back.But at the moment, the girl is frightened and unconscious, and it is important to save her: "This king knows. The princess is frightened, let's go back to the city first, ask the imperial doctor to take a look, and let the princess sit in my carriage." When she came out, for Not to be ostentatious, Liu Xuan did not ride a horse but a cart.

After speaking, without waiting for the consent of the people in the Lin family, he carried Daiyu in his arms and strode towards a seemingly ordinary green-glazed cart.

"My lord, if a man and a woman can't get married, how can we ask the princess to ride with the prince? Guard Wan, is our carriage still there?" Qingyue was only slightly surprised when she learned of Liu Xuan's identity. The news about the prince's carriage got out, and if nothing happened, something would happen.

"Still at the same place." Although Wan Chaozong didn't say a word, he agreed with Qingyue's words in his expression. Prince Liu has not yet distinguished whether his family is an enemy or a friend, so he can't just listen to it rashly.

Liu Xuan ignored these two people at all, jumped into the carriage lightly, turned his head and shouted to Qingyue, "Do you want to come up to serve your princess?"

Qingyue was stunned for a moment, she had already realized it, and jumped into the carriage. These brocade cushions and pillows were used by the prince, so she couldn't care about it at this time, she put her hands together to help Daiyu lie down, secretly took Daiyu's pulse, and returned it to the carriage. Well, it was just frightened, and he let out a sigh of relief.

"Guard Wan, please lead the way and join your troops first."

Wan Chaozong was worried about this matter, Bai Hui Qingning didn't know if she had escaped, and the princess's maid was still behind, unexpectedly, this prince was also very careful, so he quickly took orders.

But after walking for a short while, he ran into other people from the Lin family, including Qingning and Baihui.

"How is the girl?" Qing Ning was riding on the horse, seeing Wan Chaozong from a distance, urged the horse to run a few steps, and asked in a worried voice.

"Fortunately, Prince Yicheng rescued her in time. The girl was frightened and she was in the carriage."

Upon hearing this, Qing Ning threw the reins of the horse and jumped into the carriage, stunned for a while, and took a long time to calm down.Qingyue half-kneeled on the carriage to block Liu Xuan's sight, Liu Xuan didn't shy away from it, sitting on the carriage with a big face, with a cold expression.Qingning gave Liu Xuan a blessing, and then went forward to talk to Qingyue in a low voice.

It turned out that after she led Bai Hui to break through, most of the men in black chased them. Qing Ning chose a good mount, and carried them for a long time before being overtaken by others. Come to the rescue.Seeing that it was time enough for Daiyu to escape, Qing Ning deliberately let the men in black know that this was not the real Daiyu. Had to retreat.After all the people in the Lin family gathered, they chased after Daiyu.

After half an hour, they entered the city, and Liu Xuan ordered to go straight to Prince Yicheng's mansion.

Qingning Qingyue was shocked, regardless of Liu Xuan's cold face, she came out to stop her: "My lord, thank you for your kindness, it's better for us to go back to the Lin Mansion, the lord will be anxious if he doesn't know when he goes back."

Liu Xuan raised his eyebrows, glanced at the two of them, and finally explained: "The person who hijacked the princess is definitely not an ordinary person. It is not safe for you to go back now. The guards in the palace are at least stronger than yours. The king will send someone to Inform your lord."

Qingning and Qingyue looked at each other, knowing that Liu Xuan was telling the truth, those people are so powerful, it is impossible without a strong backer, Prince Liu is a prince of the royal family after all, he must have a lot of power in his hands, temporarily go It's good for Prince Yicheng's mansion to avoid the limelight, and make plans when his prince returns.The two nodded together.

The steward of Prince Yicheng's mansion accepted the Lin family and his party in surprise, Liu Xuan hugged Daiyu directly, refusing to fake Qingning Qingyue, and shouted: "Go to Lengxiangyuan, send someone to invite Hua imperial physician to come over immediately."

Butler Liu was stunned, and hurried to work.

Liu Xuan only called Daiyu's personal servant girl to follow him in, while the rest stayed outside.Lengxiang Garden is naturally named after plum blossoms. This is the forbidden area of ​​Prince Yicheng's mansion. No one is allowed to enter without the order of the prince, including the princess.The quiet and elegant scenery has changed from the grandeur in front, and it looks ordinary, but you can find many special places if you look closely.

What catches the eye is the gauze curtain of ink painting, which is very refreshing and pleasant.Daiyu slowly opened her eyes, a little surprised, this is definitely not any place in the Lin Mansion, because the atmosphere here is different.

"Girl, you're awake, you scared us to death." Xueyan lay down beside the bed, and threw herself in front of Daiyu, crying until the pear blossoms were raining, very pitiful.

"What are you doing? Pour some water for me to drink." Daiyu wanted to support herself, but her whole body was weak and her mouth was dry.

Xueyan didn't bother to wipe her tears, she poured a cup of water in a panic, put it on the desk near her hand, sat on the head of the bed by herself, helped Daiyu up, and put a big ginger-yellow embroidered with light and green twigs on her back. Facing the pillow to make Daiyu feel more comfortable, he brought water to Daiyu's lips.

"Sister Bai Hui worried about others, so she went to make medicine for the girl herself. Chunxian Bixiang is helping Qingning Qingyue bandage the wound in the wing room. Girl, how do you feel?"

Daiyu drank half a cup of water, then shook her head slightly, took a breath, leaned back on the pillow, and suddenly heard that Qingning Qingyue was injured, she was startled, and asked anxiously: "Is the injury serious? It's okay, I'll go take a look."

Xueyan hurriedly stopped Daiyu who was about to get up, pressed her to lean on her, and said angrily: "Girl, you are not well yet. Qingning's arm was injured, Qingyue's hand was scratched, the imperial doctor said it's nothing. Don't worry, girl, they will come to see you soon."

"Okay then. Where are we? It seems very strange to me." Daiyu looked blankly at the furnishings in the room. Outside the azure curtain, there were twelve rosewood windows inlaid with ivory flowers reflecting glass. The middle four are open, and the outside seems to be a small living room, only the Ru kiln's azure-glazed flower goblet can be seen on the high table.

Xueyan briefly narrated everything that happened before. After hearing this, Daiyu was silent for a long time, then shook her head and said, "I want to thank the lord for saving my life. It's just that it's not good to live here. Let's pack up and go back." Bar."
