Biography of Qingwu

Chapter 5 The King of Anjing

King An Du knew that as long as Zhao Huaining was careful enough, he would thoroughly investigate Zhang Yaxin. It would be easy for Jiang Lin to register, but outside the palace, he couldn't get out, and after only one investigation, he would know that the matter of Zhang Yaxin's promise to pro-cousin was nothing, and there would be chaos at that time. It's just a tactic to slow down the troops.

An Du Wang Ming thought hard, pacing in the hall, forgetting the pain on his leg.

To cover up one piece of evidence requires creating more evidence.

King Andu suddenly thought of this method, after careful consideration, he felt that it was feasible, even if it was only a day longer, it would be good. Yaxin's disappearance must be related to that night, and he had to do everything possible to buy her time.

On this side, Jiang Linqin went to Wang An's subordinates, prepared gold and silver, and stuffed them into the man's hands with a smile on his face, "My lord, there is a booklet that I took by mistake, what can I do?"

The man weighed it down, knowing that there must be gold and silver in the bag, and said, "Which booklet is wrong, quickly take it away!"

Jiang Lin took away Zhang Yaxin's brochure as he wished, "It's a new dynasty when the new emperor ascends the throne. Old slaves like lower officials are unpleasant, and they are in a difficult situation. They are not to be troubled by. I hope that your lord will not tell others about this." Then, Jiang Lin stuffed another gold ingot into his hand.

The man smiled in satisfaction, and his tone softened a lot, "I have accepted the gift, so I have to do things naturally."

At this time, King Andu went to Huanyang Palace, which was the former residence of his mother and concubine. Since he was imprisoned in Chao'an Palace, all the palace servants who had served were placed in Huanyang Palace.

King Andu waited for the opportunity under the tree, and finally waited until midnight when a little maid came out to relieve herself, so he took the opportunity to cover her mouth and dragged her into the dark. The maid struggled desperately until she heard King Andu say: "It's me, Qin'er .”

The maid looked at him in disbelief: "My lord?"

"Qin'er, I believe you can guess the current situation. The king and concubine mother are in prison and cannot leave the palace. I want you to help me get out of the palace and spread the news!"

"Qin'er is willing to help the prince, but how can Qin'er get out?" Qin'er's eyes widened. She is only fourteen or fifteen years old, ignorant and ignorant. Being young, she favored her a lot, and she was grateful in her heart, and now that she had the opportunity to repay her, it was natural that there was nothing wrong with it.

King Andu originally thought of killing a court lady and eunuch at random, and throwing away the corpse at will, which is the most perfect way to divert the emperor's target, but he still couldn't do it. Seeing the cute and cute little girl in front of him willing to go through fire and water for him, he became more and more worried. I feel extremely ashamed and ashamed of my initial thoughts. I once read, "Those who are thick do not destroy others to benefit themselves, and those who are benevolent do not harm others to gain fame." This sentence was once regarded as the foundation of the world by him, but now , he almost ran counter to that.

But in the face of today's predicament, righteousness and conscience stand in opposite directions, and he doesn't know which side is benevolence.

"I know that there is a dog hole in the corner of the cold palace, but the hole is too small, and only you can get out. After you go out, go to General Yuan's mansion and let him hide you, so that no one can know. From then on, you will always be good." Wait." King Andu saw sweat on his forehead, his voice was very low, and he was vigilant about his surroundings.

"Does the lord have anything to say to General Yuan?" Qin'er blinked suspiciously, is it that simple?

"You tell General Yuan that Yaxin promised her cousin, who went out of the palace a few days ago to discuss the date of marriage, and has never returned to the palace. Let General Yuan prepare everything. It's not too late, you have to leave now, don't Someone discovered you." King An Du took advantage of the night to play the zither, and walked towards the cold palace against the wall.

Lenggong is a deserted palace, uninhabited, and weeds have grown in the palace. King Andu took the qin'er to the corner, pulled the grass, and a dog hole appeared in front of the two of them. It is absolutely impossible for an adult body to get into it. Going out, only a thin 14-year-old girl like Qin'er can barely get through.

Qin'er mustered all her strength to drill out, the opening of the hole was narrow, it was not easy for such a thin girl to get out.Her shoulders were jammed and she gasped in pain.

King An Du immediately let go of the hand that pushed her, and asked with concern and pity: "It's fine if you can't get out, don't hurt you."

King Andu is always so kind and warm, always able to treat everyone kindly, Qin'er gritted his teeth, a firm expression appeared on his immature face, "Qin'er can pass, my lord, push hard!"

The clothes were scratched by the raised gravel, and the girl's white and tender skin was easily scratched by the gravel. In such a dark night, King Andu was still hurt by the bright red patch on Qin'er's shoulder.

"My lord, you don't have to blame yourself, it's just a minor injury. Qin'er is going now, lord, take care." Qin'er covered the wound with her clothes, and seeing King Andu's eyes full of guilt, she actually felt heartache, heartache Apart from that, she was actually a little happy, the prince of Huanxi was nervous about her, and took pity on her.

"Qin'er, you, be careful all the way, don't be seen by others, remember what I told you!"

"Don't worry, my lord." After finishing speaking, Qin'er left without looking back.

It was a long, long night, and King Andu's heart was always restless.

As for Yingdu on the border of Zhao State, the King of Anjing Zhao Huairou was also worried.

Zhao Huairou woke up from a nightmare, dreaming that he was not favored when he was a child, he played with the second and third brothers, they learned to play polo from the sons of the relatives, the father was watching not far away, he Desperate performance, galloping on a pony, swinging a club and hitting the ball crazily. He lost his mother and concubine since he was a child, and he no longer has the love of his mother and concubine. Of course, he must desperately strive for the love of his father and emperor, so he performed desperately and violated the rules frequently throughout the round , and even pushed the second prince out of the arena, the second prince didn't say a word, but the third prince shouted, "Huairou! Why do you keep fouling! You didn't remember anything Zhang Qiyu taught you just now, you are stupid and bad, you You squeezed the second brother out of the arena! If you want to win, we will let you win!"

Even in the dream, the feeling of frustration and embarrassment is still very real. Even though it has been 20 years, this embarrassing feeling still runs through his life. He carefully looked back at his father and found his father's smile No more, the concubine next to him was whispering timidly, saying, "The fourth prince is just like his concubine mother, he is petty, and wants to win or lose in everything." Another concubine immediately said: "It is normal for a maid to be petty, Without the upbringing of a wealthy family, how can you know how to be a man?"

Zhao Huairou hoped that his father would stop them, but he didn't, he just glanced at him and said, "Huaijin Huaining, didn't you two invite the Zhai family to do a painting, he should be here by this time .”

The two royal brothers left together. He stood where he was, and his cue fell weakly on the ground. Everyone gradually left. He was excluded. They seemed to be a firm circle. No matter how hard he tried, he would not be merged. Not recognized, even his father, his father, never helped him with a single word.

Zhao Huairou woke up from the dream, sweating profusely, and gasped heavily. He opened the window and took a breath. The moonlight outside the window was as cold as water, and asked, "What time is it?"

"It's three o'clock." The beautiful maid who kept watch at night replied, and picked up his coat, and put it on for him: "Although it is midsummer in July, but this Yingdu is surrounded by mountains, and it is very cold at night. I'm not in good spirits, so be careful, don't catch a cold."

Zhao Huairou was very flustered, "Go get some wine."

The maid was obedient and immediately went to the outer room to get the wine. Although her movements were already fast, Zhao Huairou kept urging, "Hurry up!"

Zhao Huairou took the wine and drank it down, feeling relieved, the maid picked up the handkerchief and wiped the sweat off his forehead, "But did you have any terrible dreams?"

Zhao Huairou pulled the maid into her arms, her hands were loose on her body, and she whispered in her ear: "No, I just feel hot all over, please quench the fire for me."

The woman in the room smiled coquettishly and panted, Zhao Huairou failed everywhere, and only by doing her best in the intercourse between men and women, could she gain admiration from the women's eyes.

He can only vaguely feel from these young, ignorant, and delicate girls, their white and tender bodies under their clothes, that his majesty will last forever, and his youth will last forever.

No matter how long the night is, it will eventually pass. The sky is white and the sun is rising. Today will be a fine day. Yaxin has walked out of the imperial city for more than a hundred miles. At this moment, she is sitting on the side of the official road to rest, wearing peasant women's clothes. Running around, never washing, dust stained on the face by sweat, feet swollen and sore where they were worn out, although she was a court lady in the palace, she was still a concubine like the concubine Yuan, she had never touched her hands in rough work, and now she has been doing a lot of work for several times She was already exhausted from running around all day long. She didn't dare to procrastinate a few days ago. Now that she is more than a hundred miles away from the imperial city, she can also take a little rest. From yesterday evening to now, she still hasn't had enough food. Now she just feels that the whole People groggy.

"Girl, are you okay?" A carriage passed by, and the girl in the carriage happened to lift the curtain to look at the road conditions, and saw the exhausted Yaxin on the side of the road.

Ya Xin didn't respond, she sat on the ground with her head down.

So the girl in the carriage got out of the carriage, bent down and was about to help Yaxin up, when Yaxin was startled suddenly, stood up and backed away in a hurry.

"Girl, don't be afraid, I'm not a bad person. My name is Chen Qingwu. I just saw that you are weak, and I want to ask if you need any help." Seeing that she was so scared, Chen Qingwu's tone softened a lot.Turning back to the car, he took the steamed stuffed bun and handed it to her, "You haven't eaten yet, these steamed stuffed buns I bought from the city, it's a little cold, girl, let's eat it first to fill my stomach."

Ya Xin was really hungry, when she left the palace she had nothing, so she had to sell her jewelry for expenses, now it is even more pitiful, she doesn't even have a hairpin on her body.

"Girl, where are you going?" Chen Qingwu looked at her and felt more and more pitiful for her.

Only then did Yaxin see the appearance of the person who came, it was a girl with high hair and long hair, wearing an indigo robe, about eighteen or nineteen years old, with a delicate and bright face, with an inexplicable quack air, it was really strange to see like bad guys.So he told her, "I'm going to Yingdu."

Unexpectedly, it was such a coincidence, Chen Qingwu said happily: "I am going to Cuicheng, you can go with me, so we can be a companion, Cuicheng is adjacent to Yingdu, and when you arrive at Cuicheng, you will be in Yingdu, Yingdu It’s thousands of miles away, if you walk across it with your two feet, it will be a waste of your feet, and you will be haggard.”

Yaxin said hesitantly: "But I have no money, my house was robbed by bandits, my parents were dead, I ran out by myself, I want to go to Yingdu to find my cousin!" , Yaxin sobbed sadly.

Chen Qingwu was very righteous, so he pulled Yaxin and walked into the carriage, "In this way, you can't let yourself go in this wilderness. Don't worry, I won't charge any money. I will take care of you, I will take care of eating, drinking, and messing with you!"

Ya Xin looked at her in disbelief: "Really?"

"Of course it's true."

"Miss Chen, when I see my cousin, I will definitely prepare a generous gift to thank you!" Ya Xin burst into tears of gratitude.
