The Crown Prince in the Jade Pendant - Chapter 119
“Is anyone in there? Our official has two words to ask.”
There was deathly silence in the room, and the chief guard placed his hand on the handle of the knife silently, Chu Jinyao’s face also darkened, and there was a heart-palpitating calm in his eyes.
However, it was the seven or eight-year-old boy who broke the silence at this time. He ran over and gave Granny Zhuang a little: “Grandma, someone is calling outside.”
Granny Zhuang also recovered. She glanced at Chu Jinyao and the murderous captain behind her, swallowed, and then hurriedly went out: “Come on, here, here.”
Chu Jinyao and Chu Jinxian stood inside the house, listening to Mrs. Zhuang talking to the people outside. Mrs. Zhuang was an ordinary citizen who was particularly in awe of people in official uniforms, and he spoke with obvious caution. The officers and soldiers who came to search interrogated a couple of sentences, and started the topic: “Have you ever seen a woman in Chinese clothes coming from the northwest?”
Mrs. Zhuang suddenly had a sudden shock in her heart. She tentatively asked: “Gord, what are you asking about this?”
“Whatever you do, just answer it. Have you seen it?”
“No.” Granny Zhuang said through gritted teeth, “It’s cold, we were ready to go to sleep as soon as we hit the door, and we didn’t pay attention to anyone.”
“Really?” Seeing that he was young, the sergeant looked at Granny Zhuang suspiciously.
Granny Zhuang resolutely said no. The sergeant looked up at a dark room and asked in confusion, “It’s already dark, why don’t you turn on the lights?”
There were so many people in the room that the lights would reveal the real situation in the room, so the chief guard blew out the lights as early as knocking on the door. Unexpectedly, this small-looking soldier was so vigilant. Chu Jinyao in the room gradually clenched his fists, and the chief guard was also ready to go. At this time, Mrs. Zhuang said: “Official man, life is not easy for our farmers. It costs money. When it’s dark, sewing clothes is as long as possible to look at the outside light, not willing to light up the lights.”
This principle made sense, and the soldier asked, “There are still people inside? Why don’t they come out?”
“Official man, there is an old daughter-in-law inside. She is young and thin-skinned. She is not used to seeing foreign men, you see…”
The soldier wanted to cross-examine. The companion behind him impatiently urged: “Hurry up, the general is still waiting for a reply.”
The soldier walked out suspiciously. When he was about to leave the house, he looked at the ground and his expression suddenly changed: “Why are there ruts here?”
The head guard was shocked and immediately drew his sword, but was suddenly stopped by Chu Jinyao’s hand. Chu Jinyao slowly buffered the head guard and shook her head in the night. The soldier was just someone else. Chu Jinyao grew up in the village. How could she not know the details of the northern countryside. Let’s not talk about whether the chief guard would make such a mistake, just say that the soil froze after October, and where there is such a tendency to leave ruts, this soldier is deceiving them.
Sure enough, Mrs. Zhuang cried repeatedly. The soldiers kept paying attention to the movement in the room and found that it was as calm as before. At this moment, a bean-sized fire suddenly lit up in the room. A young wife-like man walked to the door with a candlestick in her hands, half-sided He saluted the soldiers outside and whispered: “Mother.”
Mrs. Zhuang’s hands were trembling, but she still pretended to curse: “Why did you come out?”
The dealer’s little grandson poked his head out from behind his mother and said timidly: “Grandma, what’s the matter?”
“It’s okay, you go back with your mother first. It’s cold outside, so you don’t dress well and be careful of colds.”
The soldier watched for a while, and finally put down his guard, opened his robe and walked out. Mrs. Zhuang breathed a sigh of relief unknowingly, and Chu Jinyao who was squatting on the floor in the room also exhaled long.
If there is no danger, just leave.
The voices of several soldiers gradually faded away, and when they heard the voices, they went to check another one. The cold wind was like a knife, and everyone in the village kept silent, except for the rough knock and questioning of the soldiers.
Chu Jinyao slowly stood up with the help of Linglong and Lilac. She was almost sweaty at this shock.
But the next moment, the sweat on Chu Jinyao’s back seemed to suddenly become cold, and it plunged into his back like a needle.
A short distance away, the soldier asked for some reason, “Are there any strangers coming in or out of the neighborhood?” The farmer who was questioned shook his head again and again. At this time, a voice suddenly came from the house: “Who said no, you just The one who left went into the stranger.”
Hearing this voice, Chu Jinxian’s body was struck by lightning, and Chu Jinyao’s eyes burst out with a compelling cold light: “Chu Jinmiao!”
Chu Jinyao had no time to think about why Chu Jinmiao was here. She didn’t even think about what to do next, and a soft little life was stuffed into her arms. In the night, Chu Jinxian’s eyes were almost glowing: “Jin Yao, Brother Lu, please give it to you.”
Chu Jinyao paused for a short while, and then reflected what she was going to do in the next moment: “Sister, you are crazy, how can you…”
“If I have any accident, take care of Brother Lu for me.” After Chu Jinxian said, she looked deeply at the unconscious brother Lu in the dark, and turned to face the head guard, “Chief guard, please take care of you. Get me out.”
The head guard was taken aback, and immediately understood. Chu Jinyao and Chu Jinxian are compatriots and sisters, they look similar, and the sky is dark, as long as the chief guard escorts Chu Jinxian out, people outside should think this is the prince princess. It doesn’t matter even if it is dismantled, the time they have been fighting for is enough to support the prince.
The head of the bodyguard gave Chu Jinxian a fist, and then drew a knife to **** Chu Jinxian out. Chu Jinyao burst into tears, and she rushed forward to stop the two people, but was hugged tightly by Linglong and Dingxiang.
There were shouts from outside, and soon chaotic footsteps sounded, gradually approaching and gradually moving away. The Lu brother that Chu Jinyao held in her arms suddenly felt that she was too heavy to support her.
The chuang family’s mother-in-law and daughter-in-law watched this scene, horrified, but firmly covered their mouths. It’s easy for them to see the nobles in the capital in the western suburbs, so these flat-headed people like to talk about the capital, and the most sensational thing during this period is naturally the princess who came to the Xijiao Ligong to pray for the queen. .
They watched the beautiful woman who almost melted into the moonlight, holding the child tightly in her hands, crying depressed and silently, and suddenly many guards appeared in the empty house just now, all kneeling on the ground. Hold a fist to the woman: “This is no longer a place to stay, please transfer with your humble position.”
Chu Jinyao knew that it was useless to say anything now. As long as she was not found, people would not dare to do anything. If she was found, Chu Jinxian really didn’t need to exist.
Chu Jinyao wiped away her tears without saying a word, and walked out with the heavy guards. When she was about to leave the house, the seven-year-old grandson of Mrs. Zhuang suddenly broke free from her mother’s embrace and ran to Chu Jinyao: “Sister, are you leaving now?”
Chu Jinyao hugged Brother Lu’s hands tightly, and said with difficulty, “I’m sorry.”
The Zhuang family harboured Chu Jinyao, and even lied and teased the soldiers just now. These risk-takers did not dare to move Chu Jinxian, but they had no scruples about this ordinary villager. Chu Jinyao knew at this moment that her existence could sometimes be a disaster.
The little boy said: “I know the village, let me show you the way.”
Chu Jinyao was stunned. She couldn’t help but look back at the dealer’s mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and found that the two men were hanging their heads in awe. Although they were shaking, they did not stop. It would be great to be able to lead the way, and the children are small and difficult to be spotted. The guards agreed without hesitation.
Of course, their arms are always accumulating energy. If this little boy is a little bit strange, they will be able to wipe off his weak neck in an instant.
The pedestrian disappeared into the night in a hurry. On the other side, a general with broad and thick shoulders was riding a tall horse, passing through the crowd with a calm face, looking at the slender woman in the middle, and looking up and down: “This is the prince. Concubine?”
Chu Jinxian stared fiercely at the incoming person, pursing her mouth and not speaking. The captain of the bodyguard is already hanging on his body, and the guard holding a knife is beside Chu Jinxian at the moment, and he doesn’t say a word.
General Hu looked around for a while, and secretly said that the prince of this dynasty was extremely beautiful, and that all the beauties in the world belonged to the emperor’s family. In this way, the prince of the Qin family was indeed rich in beauty. General Hu was already half-believing in his heart, but he had to be cautious if he wanted to make a big deal, so he waved his hand and motioned to his men to bring a few others up.
Several palace ladies who were randomly captured from Changheyuan were escorted forward. They looked up and saw the person in front of them, their eyes shrinking.
General Hu drew out the knife, deterrence meant a great deal: “Is she the prince?”
Chu Jinxian’s hands trembled unconsciously, and she silently stared at the palace men. These palace men had their own functions. Among them, there was even a dowry maid who had accompanied Chu Jinxian for many years. Tears were in the eyes of that maid. He gritted his teeth and said, “Yes.”
The king humiliated the officials and died, they all know that the emperor is now fierce, and the prince is the future of this country. The only bleeding vein of the prince’s first-in-law, there must be no accident.
No matter who dies.
It is reasonable to say that General Hu should be very satisfied when he heard this answer, but he felt wrong inexplicably. No, it was too easy. The people around the princess hardly resisted, and the woman in front of him who seemed to be the “prince princess” did not show any stubborn and humiliating look.
Everything went surprisingly well, almost making people wonder if this is true.
General Hu will be suspicious, but the fluke string in his heart has the upper hand. This is really tempting. The emperor was captured a few dozen miles away from Beijing, and all the troops in the capital were almost wiped out. The Oala people held the trump card in their hands, and soon they wanted to go south to force Beijing. At this time, the Qin family either If you die together with that dragon seat, you can only move the capital in a panic. Once the capital is moved, Beiyan, the land of Longxing, and the majestic Forbidden City in the imperial capital, it is time to change owners.
This is a temptation that any ambitious man cannot refuse. If he holds the prince who is rumored to be very favored in his hand, the prince will even have a **** vein from the Donggong concubine in his belly. If this is a boy, then he The establishment of the young emperor and the redevelopment of the great cause are within easy reach.
The domineering and domineering Jinyiwei, the malformed and foul-smelling castrated party, the distorted official system that emphasized civility and restraint military affairs, and even this bloated and corrupt Great Yan Dynasty, it is time for a new blood.
General Hu gradually let go of his hand, there is nothing wrong with it, he should just think too much. Just as he was about to signal his men to “please” go, a young soldier suddenly ran up behind him, and he shouted: “General, the woman who was the first warning is brought here.”
Chu Jinxian’s expression immediately changed. Across the faint flames, Chu Jinxian’s eyes were calm when they crossed the cold blade. Only when they came into contact with Chu Jinmiao’s eyes, they became scared, warned, begging and again. Anticipating.
General Hu had no hope at all. How could a commoner know the prince. But out of the compulsiveness of the soldiers, he still asked: “Is she the prince?”
Chu Jinmiao and Chu Jinxian looked at each other through the light of the knife. Of course she understood Chu Jinxian’s eyes. Chu Jinmiao somehow remembered that she was Zhao’s favorite daughter when she was a child, but she had never been right with Chu Jinxian Pan, every time there was a conflict, Mrs. Chu would reprimand Chu Jinmiao mercilessly, and Mrs. Chu did not even ask why. Zhao, who used to beg her, also said uncharacteristically that your eldest sister can’t go wrong, you should listen to her.
Chu Jinmiao’s lips curled up with a cold and malicious smile: “She is not.”
Everyone present was excited, including General Hu, these knives, and the fish inside.
“what did you say?”
“She is not the princess, the princess is called Chu Jinyao, and she is Chu Jinyao’s older sister, Chu Jinxian.”
There was deathly silence around, and Chu Jinmiao even smiled happily: “If you don’t believe it, you can check her belly. The princess should be pregnant now, but she has just given birth to a child.”
General Hu’s expression was extremely stunned. He obviously didn’t expect this. He looked at Chu Jinmiao and Chu Jinxian in the field, not knowing who to believe.
“No need to check.” Chu Jinxian stared at Chu Jinmiao, and said every word, “Chu Jinmiao, you can’t die.”
