Yu Tang Golden Boudoir

Chapter 252 Hijacking (2)

Guan Tong came back after sending the message, and quietly pulled the anxious and flustered Mammy Xiong, and squeezed her triangular eyes to signal her to calm down. Mammy Xiong, remembering Li Tian's usual evaluation of Guan Tong, suppressed her innermost feelings Anxious and panicked, Guan Tong winked behind the screen again, Mammy Xiong understood, and after a while Hou Fuyin and Guo Tuiguan came, it was not suitable for her to stand here and listen, behind the screen is a good place to be obedient.

Hou Fuyin and Guo Tuiguan came one after the other very quickly, Guan Tong welcomed them into the study, the fifth prince was full of evil spirits, raised his hand and pointed at the passageway: "Speak!" Guan Tong nodded slightly, looked at Hou Fu Yin and Guo Tuiguan briefly explained the news that someone had reported that the princess was kidnapped, but they didn't mention Dongyang County Palace. Hijacked, it must be really hijacked by someone, the prince and concubine under him was actually hijacked by villains, if there is another good or bad...Hou Fuyin dare not think about it anymore, is there any way out for his family?

Guo Tuiguan stared at Hou Fuyin and wished he could paste 'Shangguan' on Hou Fuyin's face and engrave the word 'subordinate' on his own face, but the fifth prince stared at Guo Tuiguan and said coldly: "Guo Tuiguan He is the real local snake in the capital, and I will leave this matter to you. Listen, I will give you ten days to find out the whereabouts of the princess. You don’t have to worry about the rest of the matter. If you can’t find out..." The fifth prince was wrong. Tooth, with a sneer, Guo Tuiguan only felt that his back was cold, his scalp was numb, and his heart was falling straight down. Anyone who dared to kidnap a prince and concubine was by no means a good person. Ten days, where to check?Hou Fuyin finally breathed out, blinked a few times and came alive, wanted to express his opinion but was afraid of causing trouble, so he just kept twisting his face and nodding.

"Fifth Lord, forgive me for speaking bluntly!" Guo Tuiguan had no choice but to bite the bullet and replied: "If the concubine is really kidnapped, the kidnapper is not simple..." Guo Tuiguan met the fifth prince's fierce gaze , I couldn’t go on with the bargaining afterwards, Qi Ai changed the subject and said: "The villain must have a plan for kidnapping the princess. If he can know what the villain is planning, he will have a direction to investigate. I don’t know...Mr. Guan?" Guo Tuiguan Turning his gaze to Guan Tong for help, Guan Tong glanced at the fifth prince, then turned to Guo Tuiguan and said, "I will tell you nothing about Guo Tuiguan, Fifth Lord and I are also guessing what the villain wants to do." Guo Tuiguan's Adam's apple rolled and swallowed. He salivated, and asked bravely: "Whether it is an open investigation or a secret investigation, please show me the fifth master."

"Secret investigation." The fifth prince only uttered two words. Guo Tui had nothing to push back, and he was a bachelor. Girls and nuns."

"It's easy to say!" Guan Tong promised, the fifth prince seemed to be quite satisfied with Guo Tuiguan's attitude, stood up and told Hou Fuyin first: "You must give Guo Tuiguan all conveniences!" Hou Fuyin hurriedly agreed, How can I order this?The fifth prince turned his head to look at Guo Tui again and said, "Come and find Mr. Guan if you have anything to do, remember, ten days!" Guo Tui agreed, and the fifth prince waved Guan Tong to see off the guests.

Guan Tong sent Hou Fuyin and Guo Tuiguan back to the entrance of the study courtyard. The fifth prince had already put on a thick cloak, and he confessed as he walked out, "I'm going to Li Palace!"

"Fifth Lord wants to report this matter to the officials?" Guan Tong was shocked, and the Fifth Prince gave him a sideways look: "Do you think this matter can be hidden from Dad? Don't worry!" A layer of desolation floated on the face of the Fifth Prince Sneered: "Even if I don't know, I'm just pretending not to know. I'll go to Mr. Zheng. I can't tell Father about this, but I have to tell him." Guan Tong heaved a sigh of relief, and followed the fifth prince out of the courtyard. Paused at the bottom of the steps, waved his hand to stop Guan Tong: "You can arrange whatever you want when you go back, don't send me off." Guan Tong stopped, watched the fifth prince turn around the rockery, took a few steps back and turned around , Seeing Mammy Xiong standing behind him at some point, she was taken aback.

"You're a smart person..." Guan Tong didn't finish his sentence, but was interrupted by Xiong Mama, choked with sobs: "I understand, I've seen a lot, a woman's family is a reputation, girl... girl..." Xiong Mammy covered her mouth tightly with one hand, choking the wailing in her throat.

The woman's house was hijacked, how can she be clear about her innocence?
"Don't cry, and don't worry." Guan Tong said softly, "Firstly, the concubine is very different from ordinary people, so nothing will happen to her. Second, Lord Wu is a sensible person, so this matter will be all right." Mammy Xiong said Nodding for a while, looking at Guan Tong: "Is this going to be kept a secret from the mansion?"

"Well, let's just say that the princess is ill, and you should keep a close eye on everything inside and outside the mansion." Guan Tong ordered bluntly, and Mammy Xiong agreed, wiping her tears, then turned around and walked to the gate of the courtyard with her head bowed, and stood facing the wall for a while. After a while, he turned around slowly, except for the slightly red eyes that could not be concealed, everything else was the same as usual. He shook off the veil, and walked out of the study courtyard calmly. Guan Tong stood behind him, looking at the bear with admiration Mammy, the mother-in-law and girl next to the princess, although they are ordinary people with limited knowledge, it is rare to see such ability and sophistication.

Guo Tuiguan returned to the official office, rushed straight into Mr. Hong's room, sat down on the kang, raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead, and said in a daze, "This time, I'm really going to end the game, even my life!"

"What's the matter?" Mr. Hong asked in astonishment. Guo Tui's official speech was not very clear, and he finally understood what he said. Mr. Hong hurriedly asked a few details, took a breath, and fell back After a few steps, he sat on the kang with his buttocks, his eyes were straight.Official Guo Tui seemed to cry and laughed: "Is it the end of the game? Is it all over? I said that the Beijing Yamen is a place of disaster, and sooner or later it will be killed by man-made disasters, as expected!"

"Don't worry, don't worry! Let me think about it, let me think about it!" Mr. Hong felt that he was covered in cold sweat and didn't know where to wipe it off. Officer Guo Tui sighed and then sighed again. Sighing one breath after another, Mr. Hong stood up and spun around, and finally stopped suddenly before Guo Tuiguan became dizzy. He pointed his finger straight at Guo Tuiguan and said, "Say, this capital city, no no , in this world, who would dare to kidnap the prince concubine? Who would dare to kidnap the fifth prince concubine?"

"If only I knew..."

"Who else is there?" Mr. Hong cut off Guo Tuiguan's words, turned around in a hurry, and said incoherently: "Who else is there? Why do you want to kidnap the fifth prince and concubine? What is he going to do? Whatever you do, you must do it." What is the picture! What is the picture? Silver? Impossible! What else is there? Who reported the letter to the fifth master? For the sake of the concubine's reputation? There is no other reason? In this capital, who dares to touch the fifth prince? Who can care about the fifth prince? Dong Weng, do you understand?"

"Me? Understand what? You didn't say anything!" Guo Tuiguan was dizzy and dizzy from Mr. Hong's chanting. Mr. Hong grabbed the folding fan on the table and patted it in his hand. "Papa" and said: "How come Dong Weng still doesn't understand! This person who hijacked the princess... this person is about to come out!"

"Ah?" Guo Tui looked around in a daze, "Want to come out? Where did you come out?"

"Dong Weng! Who else is there in the capital who dares to move the fifth prince and concubine and makes the fifth prince jealous?" Mr. Hong looked at the stunned Guo Tuiguan, and laughed out loud. Guo Tuiguan reacted quickly this time: "Then who else can it be? It's the fourth master!" Guo Tuiguan was stunned before he finished speaking, his eyes were wide open, and he jumped up all of a sudden: "This is impossible! This!" Guo Tuiguan fell to the kang Going limp and paralyzed: "This time there is really no way out!" Guo Tuiguan cried out, and Mr. Hong laughed angrily: "Dong Weng! Be calm! In this time of fighting between dragons and tigers, there are many crises but also many opportunities. ah!"

"Sir, if you have something to say, hurry up! Don't be fooled, your life is at stake! You speak quickly!" Guo Tuiguan heard the vitality in Mr. Hong's words, and hurriedly rushed up. Mr. Hong leaned over and whispered in Guo Tuiguan's ear. While muttering for a long time, the expression on Guo Tuiguan's face relaxed and tightened for a while. After Mr. Hong finished speaking, Guo Tuiguan sat blankly for a long time before he could speak: "There is no room for advancement or retreat at this stop. Now, is it really going to be like this?"

"Then what's Dong Weng's idea?" Mr. Hong asked bluntly, Officer Guo Tui sighed and said, "That's the only way to go, that's fine, I really think this one is more pleasing to the eye than this one." Guo Tuiguan gestured with his fingers, Mr. Hong was in a daze for a moment, and hurriedly withdrew his mind and said: "On the day King Shou went to battle, I made a divination, and the meaning of the hexagram is so."

"Sir, did you divination again? Is it really the meaning of the divination? Good, good! Then I can rest assured!" Guo Tuiguan heard the words, as if he had heard the Buddha's voice and took a reassurance, his brows fluttered with confidence.There was an inexplicable meaning in Mr. Hong's eyes, and he smiled dryly and did not answer.

Ye Twelve Niang excitedly got out of the car at the second gate, and when she saw Madam Lu, she raised a dried peach branch with a smile on her face and shouted, "Look at this, Mammy! I picked it up and signed it!"

"Really? The old ancestor has been waiting for you for a long time, so let's go there quickly." Nanny Lu forced Ye Twelve Niang to see Mrs. Sun with some perfunctory words, and Ye Twelve Niang smiled unconsciously: " Grandma has been waiting for me for a long time? Why are you waiting for me? Miss me?" Ye Twelve Niang giggled as she spoke, and Nanny Lu pushed her all the way into Mrs. Sun's yard with a dry smile.

As soon as she entered the upper room, she was as dull as Ye Twelve Niang, and she also felt that something was wrong, the dried peach branch held high in her hand fell down involuntarily, Mrs. Sun was lying on the kang, her expression was ashen, and there was no smile on her face. Pointing to Ye Shierniang, she said, "Sit here." Ye Shiriniang obediently followed Mrs. Sun's finger and sat down obediently.

"Have you seen Sister Tian?" Mrs. Sun's flat voice contained indescribable embarrassment, and Ye Shiriniang hurriedly nodded and smiled and replied: "Yes, when I went, Sister Tian was talking with Mrs. Yu Drinking tea on the bell tower, I sneak out to play, does the grandma know?"

"What did you say to your cousin that day?" Mrs. Sun's expression and voice were full of coercion. Ye Twelve Niang was puzzled at first, then stunned, and then she felt uncomfortable and twisted back and forth Twist a few times and said in a low voice: "What did the granny say? I don't understand. I have talked a lot with my cousin. What day did the granny talk about?" Mrs. Sun stared at Ye Twelve Niang, not missing her There was a slight change in her face and body, and Nanny Lu also stared at Ye Twelve Niang. Seeing her like this, she let out a long sigh secretly. It really was this girl who broke the big deal. Poor old ancestors, sons and grandchildren, there is no one who can help her Do it!

"I really didn't tell you... What day did my mother-in-law talk about? I didn't tell my cousin, I just..." Ye Twelve Niang couldn't bear Mrs. Sun's stare, her expression became more and more flustered, and she squeaked Well, she is getting more and more guilty, she knows that what she said to her cousin that day must have violated her grandmother's intentions.

"I just told my cousin that my grandma asked me to say this and that. I don't know what it means. My grandma is so powerful and I am so stupid. I must not understand..." Ye Twelve Niang quickly broke down and did not tell herself. The old lady raised her hand to cover her forehead and eyes, and Ye Twelve Niang felt her heart relax, and her words became easier: "My cousin is not an outsider, so there is nothing I can't say, do you think so, grandma?" Mrs. Sun suddenly straightened her upper body Straight, he raised his hand and slapped Ye Shiriniang fiercely. This slap made Ye Shiriniang fall from the kang to the ground, and she was stunned.

"Drag her back, and from today onwards, she's not allowed to go out or in." Mrs. Sun pointed to Ye Twelve Niang, who was lying on the ground like a goose, and Madam Lu called two women to come in and stand up. After Ye Shierniang went out, she set up the hanging flower door all the way, Ye Shierniang finally came to her senses, turned around abruptly and broke away from the two wives, shouting: "Grandmother hit me?"

"Shut up and send it back quickly." Before Ye Shiriniang could utter the second sentence, Madam Lu directed the two wives to catch Ye Shirniang back, shut her mouth and carried her out without stopping. .

Sending away the lady of Jinning County Prince's Mansion, Yu Yaofang drank half a cup of tea, the more she thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong, she stood up and walked around a few times, raised her hand and called Garcinia and said: "It's alright, what's the matter?" Jinning County Prince's Mansion suddenly sent someone to ask if we are back? This seems to be not right, you go to Jinning County Prince's Mansion, just say... take the box of chrysanthemum cakes, and say that I made it myself, please The concubine of Jinning County will have a try." Garcinia agreed, changed the clothes for going out, took two boxes of chrysanthemum cakes, and rushed to the Prince's Mansion of Jinning County.

As soon as Li Tian opened his eyes, he heard Qingzhi scream in surprise, two faces squeezed in front of his eyes, Li Tian looked at Qingzhi and Yinhua whose eyes were also red and swollen, and blinked in confusion, she was dizzy and unconscious where.

"Princess, you're finally awake!" Yin Hua choked up her words first, Qing Zhi had already moved neatly to Li Tian's side, helping her to half sit up, Yin Hua hurriedly placed two big pillows behind Li Tian, ​​Li Tian Tian frowned and looked at the furnishings in the room and the well-behaved little girls standing at the four corners, Qingzhi followed Li Tian's gaze and glanced at those little girls and said in a low voice: "I don't know where this is, these girls, There are also women waiting outside, all of whom are deaf, dumb and illiterate."

"How long have I been in a coma?" Hearing what Qing Zhi said, Li Tian realized that he must have been in a coma for a long time, "We were captured here yesterday, and it's almost noon now." Yin Hua scanned The hourglass in the corner of the room replied.

"I was woken up by them last night. When I woke up, I couldn't find the hour clock, and there was no hourglass. It looked like the sky was just getting dark. At that time, Yinhua was already with me. We both woke up together. " Qingzhi took over, Yinhua glanced around subconsciously, and then said: "When we woke up, there was a servant in there, about thirty years old, very kind, smiling all the time, saying that you didn't wake up because hello You took half a bowl of tranquilizing decoction, and you won’t wake up until today, let Sister Qingzhi and I rest in a hurry, and even said what we want, just send someone to call him, and he will rest outside this yard.”

Li Tian was stunned when he heard this, and stretched out his hands to twist the brocade quilt piled in his arms. The layout of this room is no worse than that of her upper room in the Prince's Mansion of Jinning County. , How many families can there be?It seemed that the person who hijacked her didn't care what she guessed and knew. Li Tian's heart sank all the way, that is to say, the person who hijacked her wasn't going to let her leave alive?

"Princess?" Seeing Li Tian staring blankly at the corner of the room, Qing Zhi cried out in panic, Li Tian came back to his senses, looked at Qing Zhi, then at Yin Hua and asked: " Just the two of you? Where are the others? Are there... still alive?" Qingzhi and Yinhua's eye circles turned red again, and after a long while, Yinhua shook his head and said, "It seems like it's gone, Qingzhi and I As soon as Sister Zhi woke up, it was just the three of us, in the car..." Yinhua shuddered subconsciously: "I watched them kill Taoye, Xiaoling, Xiaoan, there was blood everywhere... "Qing Zhi looked at Li Tian whose face was getting whiter and paler, and hurriedly poked Yin Hua to stop her from talking, two strings of tears flowed from the corners of Li Tian's eyes, the pain was so angry that he was as silent as an ancient well.

Li Tian was as quiet and peaceful as if this was the Prince's Mansion of Jinning County. After going to the clean room at the back to take a bath, the deaf-mute girl serving in the house brought out more than a dozen sets of clothes that were suitable as if they were tailor-made. Li Tian stared at the bronze mirror and stared blankly. Looking at the dress on the body, no matter the size or the color pattern, it is completely in line with his preference.

"Princess!" Qingzhi exclaimed in a low voice, Li Tian turned his head, and his eyes fell on a tray held in by a little girl. On the tray was a stack of handkerchiefs with pearls, jasper beads, or coral beads hanging from the four corners. The corner of Li Tian's mouth moved slightly, revealing a silent sneer, so careful that she even thought of the handkerchief she used.

"Princess, who the hell is this? What do they want to do?" Qingzhi was startled again, Li Tian stretched out his hand to pick up a handkerchief, twirled the four corners of the beads one by one, and said with lowered eyelids: "If you can send a servant, Leaving you and Yinhua alive, and knowing my habit of using handkerchiefs, who could it be? No matter who it is, they are not outsiders." Qingzhi and Yinhua look at me, I look at you , I was speechless for a moment.

Mrs. Sun was ill. The fourth prince listened to Ye Shusheng frowned and muttered about Mrs. Sun's pulse. His face was expressionless, but his eyes were full of sarcasm. The fourth prince was very patient and took care of his flaws. After hearing Ye Shusheng's chanting, he squinted his eyes and smiled and said, "The old ancestor is at this age, and it's easy to get tired from worrying too much. I'll go to the mansion to see the old ancestor later." Ye Shusheng responded with some surprise, today The fourth prince seemed to be different from usual, Ye Shusheng couldn't help but look at the fourth prince again, but he couldn't tell what was different.

Nanny Lu saw the Fourth Prince walking slowly and happily accompanied by Ye Shusheng from a distance, she felt her legs and feet were weak, and her back was sweating profusely.

The fourth prince stood in front of the kang, condescendingly, staring at Mrs. Sun with a half-smile and a half-smile before saying with a half-smile: "I heard that the ancestor is ill, so I'll come and have a look."

"Fourth brother is so busy and still misses me, it's hard for you." Madam Sun met the eyes of the fourth prince, her tone was flat and gentle, and she couldn't see a trace of strangeness. After she finished speaking, she turned to look at Ye Shusheng and said: "Go Let's see if my medicine is ready, I'll talk to my fourth brother." Ye Shusheng knew that Mrs. Sun had something secret to say to the fourth prince, so he hurriedly bowed and left the upper room.Nanny Lu also quietly retreated to the door, guarding with her hands down.

"You took her away?" Mrs. Sun calmly seemed to be talking about the most common things, the fourth prince nodded and smiled: "Yes, I have no choice but to take her away."

"Ah!" After a while, Mrs. Sun sighed softly, with nostalgia and memories in her tone: "I watched that child grow up. I have liked her from the bottom of my heart since I was a child. Mrs. Lin has said many times that it would be great if I had a granddaughter like this. If the Ye family has a brother of the same age, I will marry her back no matter what. It is a pity that the Ye family does not have this blessing." Mrs. Sun's words made the fourth prince's expression gradually soften, and he gently closed the folding fan and carried it behind his back. Mrs. Sun looked at the fourth prince with eyes full of Ai Lian: "Later I thought about letting her host the show for you, but your mother had a better candidate, so I thought about carrying her into the mansion for you. Such a good child, I am reluctant to give her to others. Who knew she married Lao Wu."

The fourth prince's face twitched a few times, and he turned his head to look out the window. Mrs. Sun sighed faintly: "I know what you're thinking. The old ancestor is old and has seen too many things. Tian'er is so good." The child is also worthy of your concern, but she married the fifth brother, the fourth brother, she married the fifth!" The fourth prince twisted his head stubbornly, and there was no room for turning around.Mrs. Sun stared straight at him, a tear gushed out of her eye socket, and then another tear came out, and one drop after another formed a string.

"Just treat her as dead!" After a while, the fourth prince gritted his teeth stubbornly, and Mrs. Sun's cheeks were full of tears. She chuckled lightly and laughed again. She looked at the fourth prince very disappointed and said, "Fourth prince Brother, that girl is too smart, she needs to be worthy of her virtue and talent, your main concubine is a girl from the Zhu family, how can you comfort her?" Pain flashed across the fourth prince's face, and Mrs. Sun's heart became even colder, mourning He begged: "Fourth brother, listen to the old ancestor's words, and you can put it away. The old ancestor begs you, put it away. Now, she is a scourge, a scourge that cannot be left behind!"

"She's dead!" The fourth prince was heavily guarded from top to bottom, and there was no room for turning back. Mrs. Sun looked at the fourth prince desperately, and after a while she murmured: "She is your calamity, you can't survive it. A word of death!" The fourth prince looked at Mrs. Sun calmly, and suddenly chuckled, this time, even if he died, he would not let go.
