Chapter 557 Why Didn't You Leave
"Baihu, you have people stare at those people. Before those people do something, we won't act rashly."

Now that she decided not to leave, Jiang Jinyue quickly explained.

No matter what these people outside are here for, they must be on guard.

Baihu led the order to go out. Jiang Jinyue touched Bai Zili's head who was hugging her thigh, and whispered: "Go find brother, let him stay in the front yard instead of on the roof."

"it is good."

Bai Zili responded in a childish voice.

"Mother Liu, those soldiers in Dingguohou's Mansion are probably going to borrow me for one night."

"."

"Why don't you go?"

Before Mother Liu could respond, Song Zihang on the bed spoke.

He has always been dignified, he was brought up extremely well by Song Qing, Marquis of Yuanshan, and Mrs. Hou, and he seldom did such impolite things as interrupting others, and now he didn't know what was wrong, so he asked all of a sudden.

Jiang Jinyue was taken aback for a moment, then turned her head and looked at Song Zihang.

Song Zihang was still holding the bag of sweet-scented osmanthus in his hand, and when he asked the same question again, his tone softened.

"Why don't you go?"

"I can't leave, if I leave, these people in the palace."

"No, not because of that."

Before Jiang Jinyue finished explaining, Song Zihang shook his head feebly, denying the explanation.

His voice trembled slightly, and the sweet-scented osmanthus sugar in his hand was fragrant, but at this moment it became a kind of hurtful sweetness.

"This is not your real idea. Everyone's goal is you. If you leave with the child, the palace will naturally be out of danger. Besides, with me here, it will last until dawn."

Song Zihang raised his eyes and fixedly looked at Jiang Jinyue.

He seemed to know why Jiang Jinyue didn't leave all of a sudden.

The previous determination to leave was just because the government was pushing back, Jiang Jinyue took the children, in order to save his life, he had to follow the situation, gave up Li Zongyu gave up the palace, and wanted to leave this turbulent place.

But what about now?
Maybe Jiang Jinyue didn't even realize that once she had a reason to stay, she would have an excuse. Jiang Jinyue was far more reluctant to part with Li Zongyu than she imagined.

"is it?"

Song Zihang was asking Jiang Jinyue, but he was also asking himself.

Yeah?Are all his guesses correct?Even though he had done so many things and designed such a situation, was he still defeated by Jiang Jinyue's liking for Li Zongyu?

He had observed Jiang Jinyue carefully many days ago. Jiang Jinyue was as stable as Mount Tai even when he heard the news of Li Zongyu's defeat, without any emotional fluctuations. Why did he show such a look in front of him today?
Others can understand it at a glance, but she herself still looks ignorant?
"Forget it, it's God's will."

Mother Liu, who was pulling Jiang Jinyue, suddenly sighed.

Jiang Jinyue couldn't answer Song Zihang's question, so she had to turn her head and look at the inexplicable mother Liu.

Mother Liu's eyes flickered, and she said to Jiang Jinyue.

"The old lady ordered me to come here first. In fact, there is one more thing. Can the lady find a separate place to talk to me?"

"."

Jiang Jinyue was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Song Zihang.

She just didn't understand why Song Zihang spoke so aggressively today, the vague quarrel would make the atmosphere very awkward, thinking about what the old lady wanted to explain was just a matter in the palace, or how Jiang Jinyue would act these two days, If he deliberately avoided Song Zihang, the atmosphere would be really strange.

"Mother Liu, what did my grandmother explain? The young master is not an outsider, so you can listen."

"The old lady deliberately explained it before leaving the house, and only the young lady can know."

Mother Liu was very determined, holding Jiang Jinyue tightly with her slightly rough hands.

Jiang Jinyue pondered for a moment, then turned to look at Song Zihang.

Song Zihang lowered his head, twisted a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus candy with his slender and pale fingertips, and put it into his mouth.

The tone has calmed down.

"Sister Yue, let's go, I just happen to have a rest."

"Thank you, my lord."

Without further ado, Jiang Jinyue really didn't have time to figure out why Song Zihang was abnormal today. After a pause, he took Mama Liu to the wing room two rooms away.

Because the palace was so turbulent tonight, there was no light in the house, so Jiang Jinyue groped for a while before finding the fire pocket under the table.

The lights were on, and Mother Liu's expression was a little subtle behind the light.

"Miss, you don't want to leave but because of the prince?"

"Mama Liu"

For a moment, Jiang Jinyue really couldn't explain the reason for his momentary hesitation.

In her conception, although she likes Li Zongyu, she has always been calm and rational, and she has repeatedly warned herself not to get stuck in the mud and stay sober.

Jiang Jinyue thinks that she is doing a good job and can calmly analyze the situation. Regardless of whether Li Zongyu has done anything to hurt her and the children, she still has the ability to leave when she wants.

That moment of hesitation.
"Okay, servant girl understands."

Mother Liu interrupted Jiang Jinyue's thinking, took out a small bamboo knot from her bosom, and handed it to Jiang Jinyue while talking.

"Before coming here, the old lady specifically told the maidservant that if the young lady is sure to leave, there is no need to show you this thing. If the young lady does not leave, then take it out."

The old lady was also betting on where Jiang Jinyue's sincerity lies.

Jiang Jinyue took the small bamboo joint and recognized it at a glance. The bamboo joint was a special oiled bamboo joint tied to the leg of Li Zongyu's carrier pigeon. It had been soaked in oil and sealed with wax. It was windy and rainy. Not afraid of getting wet.

The wax on the bamboo joints has been crushed, and the lid has been opened, so it is obvious that someone has seen it.

Jiang Jinyue's eyelids twitched, and she hastily pulled out the note, which contained only one sentence.

"I arrived in Beijing late at night on the sixth day of the lunar new year."

Holding the note, Jiang Jinyue felt that the blood was flowing backwards all over her body.

It's Li Zongyu's handwriting.

this note
"The old lady knows that you and the prince have always had the habit of communicating with pigeons. The other day, when I saw a servant in Jiang Youcai's study holding a dead white pigeon and buried it in the yard, I paid attention to it at that time, and it happened tonight. , I found this from Jiang Youcai's study."

"The sixth day, today is the sixth day."

Li Zongyu, has he come back?
"How did this carrier pigeon end up in Jiang Youcai's hands?"

Jiang Jinyue just felt that her mind was in a mess, and she couldn't figure out what it meant.

Mother Liu replied in a very low voice, "What the old lady means is that the carrier pigeon was supposed to be sent to the backyard and was intercepted by Jiang Youcai, but the old lady can't say exactly why."

Jiang Jinyue held the note, and seemed to be able to find a little bit of direction and strength from these words.

After pondering for a while, Jiang Jinyue suddenly exclaimed.

"Too bad, I'm afraid the prince doesn't know what the capital city has changed that night. Now that he's back, he might not be able to get through the city gate alone!"
