It's not easy to mess with the daughter-in-law

Chapter 214 Bei Chenye Returns (1)
In the next few days, Bei Chenye didn't even return a single letter, not to mention coming back. It was almost the end of the new year, but there was still no news of him coming back. Now, Momo was in a slump all day long.

He Ye He Xiang recovered from her injury not long ago, and she also returned to her side to serve her. Seeing that her young lady was listless every day, she asked the prince countless times a day if he had any news, and knew what was on her mind, but they were very happy in their hearts. In the past, the lady always ignored the prince. They were afraid that the time would be too long and the prince's heart would be chilled. Now it seems that they are not worried at all. The prince knew that his young lady was always thinking about it.

At this moment, someone outside came to report that it was a letter from Yuanzhou. He sat up from the couch with a froth, and rushed out after picking up his shoes. Fortunately, the lotus leaf found it and stopped him, otherwise he would be rude. up.

As soon as she put on her shoes, Momo couldn't wait to run out. Seeing that the person standing outside was not the person who delivered the letter before, she was a little disappointed, but she was still treated politely, and she opened the letter and read it.

Looking at it, a happy smile appeared on his face. The letter said that the plague in Yuanzhou had been brought under control, and the collapsed houses there were almost built, and he didn't need to watch the following things, which meant that He's coming back!

Seeing this, Lotus Leaf and Hexiang also guessed a little bit, and felt a lot more relaxed. Buying these days, the prince is finally coming back, and my lady will be happy too!

Momo got the news, and counted the days every day, looking forward to Bei Chenye's return, but in the blink of an eye, it was the 29th of the twelfth lunar month, and there was a big banquet in the palace, but he was nowhere to be seen. Since then, she had no choice but to perfunctory.

However, Bei Chenye still hadn't come back on the [-]th of the next day, and Momo couldn't help feeling anxious, very worried that there might be an accident on the way.

Everyone in the mansion knew the news that the prince was coming back to celebrate the New Year, and they hadn't seen the prince coming back at this time, and they all murmured in their hearts, but they didn't dare to show it, and worked harder and harder to do their own things, for fear of causing trouble. The people above were unhappy and were kicked out.

As night fell, Momo looked at the gradually darkening sky, and heard the bursts of firecrackers not far away, and felt a strong anxiety in her heart!

Since Beichen said that he would come back before New Year's Eve, he would definitely not break his promise, but he has not come back at this hour, if there is something to delay, he will send a letter back in advance, since he has not seen anyone and has not seen the letter Well, something must have happened. At this moment, her heart was pounding and she couldn't calm down for a moment. After waiting for a long time restlessly, she saw the lotus leaf rushing in.

Momo was overjoyed, thinking that it was Bei Chenye who came back, she quickly got up and asked, "Is the prince back?" After saying that, she was about to go out.

He Ye's heart was gloomy, and she said hastily: "It's not that the prince is back, it's Shen Mama who asked the servants to ask if it's dark now, is it time to worship the gods?"

When Momo heard this, a trace of disappointment flashed across her brows, she waved her hand lazily and said, "Let Mother Shen wait, the prince may be coming back soon, wait for the prince to come back before offering sacrifices to the gods!"

He Ye opened her mouth to say something, but seeing her young lady was absent-minded, she had no choice but to go out.

Momo didn't notice her expression, and sent everyone out of the room, shouted to the dark night sky, and saw a black shadow descending, kneeling respectfully in front of her.

Momo immediately stepped forward and asked with a serious face: "Do you know how many people the prince left in the mansion before he left?"

The hidden guard lowered his head and replied: "Wangfei, there are 80 people in total!" Originally, they all followed the prince every step of the way, but the prince was worried about the concubine, so he kept them all.

Momo commanded sharply without even thinking: "Call all the people immediately and go out of the city to look for the prince. This concubine guesses that there is an accident on the way, do you understand?"

The hidden guard kept his body, looked at her and said, "This subordinate cannot obey orders, please make amends! Before the prince leaves, let me protect the princess at every step!" If possible, he also wants to go, but the prince's order He dare not not listen!
Momo frowned, knowing that they could not be blamed for this matter, so she softened her tone and said: "How about this, leave ten people, and the rest go out to find the prince. If the prince asks, you can say it was my concubine's order!" Seeing that the dark guard wanted to say more, he said coldly: "This is an order! Didn't the prince tell you to listen to my concubine before going out?"

When the dark guard heard this, he didn't dare to say any more, he glanced at Momo gratefully, and quickly left!
Just when Momo was panicking, a fierce fight was going on on the mountain road more than 40 miles away from the capital!

In an open space, more than forty black-clothed assassins surrounded Bei Chenye and his party. Many people fell to the ground under the shadow of swords and swords. more and more depressed.

They set off from Yuanzhou City eight days ago, and have encountered no less than ten groups of assassins, large and small, and more assassins each time. Up to now, among the original dozens of people, only these dozen people survived, and they didn't take much rest along the way, so they were exhausted.

Bei Chenye, whose black brocade robe was stained with blood, chopped down an assassin with a fierce sword, his phoenix eyes glanced dangerously at the man in black who was about to move and dared not step forward, and said coldly: "If you want this king's life, You have to trade your life for it!"

After saying that, holding a sharp sword in his hand, he slashed at him fiercely, about to tear open a hole and rush out.

Hearing the words, Chen Zheng, whose face was covered with blood, shouted, "Brothers, protect the prince, we must fight!"

Everyone listened to the order, their spirits trembled, and a murderous air immediately permeated. They all stared at the enemy like a midnight Shura. Knowing that there is still a sliver of hope of surviving with all your strength, if you are timid before you are defeated, then you have to wait to die!
Bei Chenye's eyes were bloodshot, he hadn't had a good rest for several nights, and he was extremely exhausted at this time, he didn't expect that those people would spend so much money to put him to death this time, he knew in his heart that the assassins he met along the way were all It wasn't sent by one person. He guessed that the previous groups of people were probably sent by King Qing, but the person in front of him should be his big brother who never shows himself. He couldn't figure out a lot of things. When the guard who protected Momo sent him a message about Xin Wang's mansion, he finally figured out the joints. His elder brother probably already had a relationship with Dong Yu. It's no wonder that he couldn't find that person after searching in many ways, but he didn't know that he had been living freely under his nose all the time!
