Chapter 288 Conflicts in the Jianghu
"What?" Song Qinghuan frowned fiercely, raised her eyes in surprise, and the reflection in her eyes was full of surprise.

Shen Chuhan also frowned, and said coldly, "What's going on?!"

"Three days ago, Mr. Ji and Miss Ye suddenly cut off contact with us."

When Ji Liuyun and Ye Luo left, although Shen Chuhan wanted to send someone to escort him, but Ji Liuyun knew that now was the time when he needed someone, so he politely refused.

However, Shen Chuhan was worried about their safety, so he told him the strongholds of Xuanying's intelligence network along the road, and asked him to report safety wherever he went.

Xuan Ying said that Ji Liuyun and Ye Luo had lost contact, that is to say, Ji Liuyun should have contacted them three days ago, but suddenly there was no news.

"Where is the broken connection?" He pursed his thin lips tightly, and his eyes were deep.

"Not long after Mr. Ji and Miss Ye left the territory of Zhao State." Xuanying replied, "They were supposed to arrive at Anping Town in Liang State three days ago, but our stronghold in the town has not received any information for a long time." Ji Gongzi's contact signal."

Shen Chuhan frowned even tighter, and his breathing was a little heavy.

"Have you found anything?" Since it happened three days ago, Xuanying must have sent someone to investigate.

"I found traces of a fight in a dilapidated temple five miles away from Anping Town. I don't know if it was Mr. Ji and Miss Ye who left behind. Now the subordinates have sent people to expand the search around that temple. "Xuan Ying reported.

Shen Chuhan frowned, and his breath became more and more gloomy.

"Send more people to investigate. In addition, send a team to Wuyou Valley to investigate the situation. Be sure to protect Master's safety." He ordered in a deep voice.

"Yes." Xuanying agreed, and hurriedly retreated.

Song Qinghuan, however, became more and more frightened. She raised her eyes, her eyes filled with worry, "Ashu, don't you suspect that... this matter has something to do with Wuhen Palace?"

If Ji Liuyun and Ye Luo were still with him at this time, then this matter might have been done by his enemies.But they had already left Lindu, so it would be a bit too much trouble to take them again.

Ji Liuyun was originally from the Jianghu, and the greatest possibility was that he was involved in some kind of Jianghu dispute.But where they disappeared, there is something strange——

The junction of Zhaoliang and Liangzhou.

The last time Wuhen Palace was active was at the border of Liang Country.

Coupled with the fact that Shen Chuhan sent people to Wuyou Valley, it further confirmed Song Qinghuan's conjecture.Shen Chuhan most likely also believes that the disappearance of Ji Liuyun and Ye Luo is inseparable from Wuhen Palace.

"That's right." Sure enough, Shen Chuhan nodded heavily, "Zishu and Luoluo escorted you back before, and although they didn't confront Su Rao head-on, Su Rao must have sensed the existence of the two of them. With her vicious temperament, People from Wuhen Palace will definitely be sent to track down the identities of Zishu and Luoluo."

"I'm worried that Wuhen Palace already knows about Zishu and Luoluo's relationship with Master. Li Xu hates Master to the bone, and will definitely not miss this opportunity to attack Master. That's why I'm worried about Master's safety." Shen Chuhan Shen Sheng explained.

Song Qinghuan was also worried.

If the disappearance of Ji Liuyun and Ye Luo is really related to Wuhen Palace, this matter will definitely not be resolved so easily.

Right now, we can only decide how to go next after Xuanying's investigation is clear.

*
Summer is coming to an end, and it has rained several times in a row in the past few days, and there is a faint coolness in the air.

On this day, the rain did not stop, and the patter of rain made people feel a little restless.

Song Qinghuan didn't go out, and played in the room with the little princess in his arms.The little princess has been three months old, and she is becoming more and more cute. Unlike the quietness in Song Qinghuan's stomach, her temper has become more and more lively, and she can play all morning with a "babbling" self.

Sometimes Song Qinghuan was also curious, both herself and Shen Chuhan had calm temperaments, but looking at her daughter's appearance, she was clearly lively and active.

At this moment, she was lying on the soft couch, looking up her head hard to look around, spit bubbles from her mouth from time to time, very cute.

After playing with the little princess for a while, the little princess gradually became a little tired, her eyelids drooped, her head lay motionless on the soft couch, like a fleshy ball.

The nurse stepped forward, "Princess, servant girl, please carry the little Princess down to rest."

Song Qinghuan glanced at her daughter's peaceful sleeping face, and said softly, "Take her to the inner room to sleep, there is no need to carry her down."

The wet nurse should be, gently picked up the little princess, and accompanied by Liuyue, went into the inner room.After settling down the little princess, he bowed and retreated, leaving only Liu Yue watching in the room.

Song Qinghuan got up and walked to the window, looking at the non-stop rain outside the window, her brows were slightly frowned, and there seemed to be worries in her eyes.

She took a deep breath, feeling a little suffocated, and stretched out her hand to open a gap in the window, and immediately a thin strand of rain drifted in.

"Your Highness." Shen Xing stepped forward and caught a glimpse of her catching the rain with her hands, her expression was a little sleepy, knowing that she was worried about Ji Liuyun and Ye Luo, he sighed inaudibly, "Your Highness, don't worry too much Alright, Mr. Ji and Miss Ye are auspicious people with their own auspices, so they will be fine."

Song Qinghuan hooked the corners of her lips, revealing a slightly pale smile.

Every day there is no news from Xuanying, she will feel restless every day.

After staying by the window for a while, Shen Xing was afraid that she would catch a cold, so he persuaded her to close the window.

Song Qinghuan was about to turn around to look at the little Princess, when she suddenly heard the voice of a maid outside the door, "My Lady, there is a girl surnamed Rong outside the mansion asking to see you."

A girl surnamed Rong?Is it Rong Zheng?

Song Qinghuan frowned, "What's your name?"

"Rong Zheng."

Song Qinghuan was slightly surprised.Since the last time I went to Chenxiang Pavilion twice, news came that Emperor Yu passed away and Ji Liuyun and Yeluo disappeared. She was too busy to understand the situation in the court and had no time to take care of other things. It had been a long time since she had been to Chenxiang Pavilion. Go and say it.

Withdrawing her thoughts and lowering her eyebrows, she looked at Shen Xing and said, "Shen Xing, go and pick it up."

Shen Xing should be, took two oil-paper umbrellas, and went out with the maid.

Song Qinghuan went to the inner room to look around, saw that the little princess was sleeping peacefully, and let Liuyue watch over her, so she backed out.

After sitting for a while, there was the sound of small footsteps amidst the patter of rain.

Song Qinghuan reckoned that it was Rong Zheng who came, walked to the door and looked out.

Seeing that in the haze of mist and rain, Rong Zheng followed Song Qinghuan with an oiled paper umbrella, and she was coming towards this side with a graceful figure, and her eyebrows became more graceful in the thin rain curtain.

The two of them got closer, when Rong Zheng raised his head, he saw Song Qinghuan, and couldn't help but relax his eyebrows, revealing a faint smile.

When they reached the corridor, Rongzheng put away the umbrella, and bowed to Song Qinghuan, "Princess."

"Why is Azheng coming over today when you are free? Come in and talk."

Shen Xing took the oil-paper umbrella from Rongzheng's hand, leaned against the wall to dry, and invited Rongzheng into the room.

"Sit down." Song Qinghuan invited her to sit down in the study, Shen Xing quickly ordered someone to serve hot tea, and retreated out tactfully.

Rong Zheng smiled, took the teacup in his hands, the heat of the tea passed through the wall of the cup into his palm, and the temperature of his palm began to warm up.

"Let's drink some water first." Song Qinghuan smiled lightly.

Rong Zheng nodded, took a sip from the teacup, then put the cup down, looked at Song Qinghuan, with a slightly shy expression, "I came here without an appointment, please don't take offense, Princess."

Song Qing laughed happily, shook his head to express that it was all right, he did not rush to speak, and took a sip of tea unhurriedly.

Rong Zheng looked at Song Qinghuan, blinked her long eyelashes, and lightly parted her red lips, "Minnv has recently developed a few spices, which have the effect of calming the mind and calming the mind. I thought I would give it to you to try when the princess comes to Chenxiang Pavilion." Try. It’s just that you’ve been busy recently, so the girl has the courage to come to the palace by herself.” Then, she took out a few silver incense balls from her sleeve and handed them over.

Song Qinghuan was slightly startled, and his expression was strange for a moment.

The calming spices are very good, why did she suddenly give her spices?
His eyes flicked across Rongzheng's somewhat disturbed face, and a thought suddenly flashed in his mind, he raised his eyebrows, and said in a calm tone, "Azheng, you...you heard about my father ,Is it?"

Rongzheng's brows dropped, his hand holding the teacup moved slightly, and he said cautiously, "Minister... I have heard about it, and I asked Mr. Mu for proof when he came last time. There is nothing Minnv can do to help the princess Yes, I was worried that the princess would not sleep well at night, so I prepared these spices and sent them here, and please don't dislike the princess."

Song Qinghuan sighed slightly, complex emotions emerged in his eyes, he fixed his gaze on her, and slowly opened his lips, "Azheng, thank you."

Originally, she was surprised that Rongzheng had never been to Han Palace before, why did she suddenly come here today.It turned out that... I really heard about the death of my father, so I came here to comfort myself.

Feeling moved in my heart, my eyes were slightly red, I stared at her clear eyes, and said sincerely again, "Azheng, thank you."

Seeing the mist in her eyes, Rongzheng felt a little bit touched. He lowered his head and shook his head, "Princess, you are welcome."

Although she looked calm on her face, she felt quite uncomfortable in her heart.

Because, she came here for another purpose.

Ever since Song Qinghuan appeared in the Chenxiang Pavilion that day, she had doubts from time to time.She always felt that it was fake for Song Qinghuan to learn how to mix fragrance, but it was real to try to get close to herself.

But Song Qinghuan is the aloof Concubine Han, even before she came to the capital, she was also the famous Empress Wuyang, how could she be interested in a commoner like herself?
I can't understand it even after thinking about it.

Coupled with the fact that Mu Bai saved her last time, her feelings towards Song Qinghuan became more and more complicated.

On the one hand, she could feel Song Qinghuan's sincerity in treating her, on the other hand, she was afraid that she would fall into some trap, so she was a little conflicted.

A few days ago, she heard the news of Emperor Yu's death.Sure enough, after that, Song Qinghuan never came to Chenxiang Pavilion again, and only sent Mu Bai to visit once, saying that she was too busy recently and might not be able to come here for a while.

After waiting for more than ten days, she still couldn't hold back the confusion in her heart.

Previously, Song Qinghuan always went to Chenxiang Pavilion to look for her. If she suddenly visited the palace and was caught off guard, how would she react?

If this time, her attitude towards herself is still the same as before, then she feels that she will let go of those doubts and return with a sincere heart.

Song Qinghuan didn't know what was going on in her mind, she played with the exquisite silver incense ball in her hand, and smiled slightly, "Actually, I'm not in a hurry for these two days, why didn't you wait for the rain to stop before coming here?"

Rongzheng came back to his senses, suppressed some confused thoughts, and smiled back, his eyes flickered a little, but his voice was always gentle, "I wanted to come a few days ago, but I just saw it was raining heavily, so I wanted to come here." I waited for a few days, but I didn't expect that the rain would not stop, and it happened that there was no one in the store today, so I came here."

Song Qinghuan nodded, handed the incense ball to Shen Xing, motioned for her to put it away, then looked at Rongzheng and said, "By the way, what happened last time, are you okay?"

Rong Zheng's eyes flickered, and after a moment of stupefaction, she realized that she was asking about the last time Rong Se sent someone to attack her, and shook her head, "I'm fine, thank you Princess for your concern."

Song Qinghuan pursed her lips, and her voice was a bit cold, "I have also experienced brother-in-law killing. Azheng, sometimes, you don't have to be too kind."

She didn't know the relationship between Rongzheng and Rongse in the previous life, but judging from the last incident, this Rongse was not a good person.

In this world, the kinder you are, the easier it is to be bullied.

As if thinking of Rong Se's ruthlessness that day, Rong Zheng's eyes flashed coldly, and when he raised his eyes to see Song Qinghuan's concern, he gradually let go of his heart, and said in a low tone, "I thought, although she is always jealous of me , but it was just a petty fight between sisters, so I didn't take it to heart, who would have thought that she would be so cruel, she clearly wanted to put me to death."

After a pause, she raised her brows and eyes, bent her lips, and said in a gentle tone, "Thank you, Princess, for reminding me. I will be vigilant against her in the future, and I won't let this kind of thing happen again."

"Yeah." Song Qinghuan's dark eyes fell on her face, "You often have to go out, and you will inevitably encounter danger. Next time, you'd better take two guards with you. Even if you may not be able to beat each other, you can Somebody is going to find the Iron Armored Guard."

Hearing the word "Iron Armored Guard", Rong Zheng's eyes paused for a moment, hesitating for a moment, as if he hesitated to speak.

Song Qinghuan glanced at her, and was about to ask a question, when she suddenly heard a cry of "wow" from inside, she hurriedly looked at Shen Xing, "Go and see if the little princess is awake, if you don't want to sleep, please hug her. "

Shen Xing should be, hastily entered the room.

Song Qinghuan turned to look at Rongzheng, smiled apologetically, "I'm sorry, I'm afraid my daughter is awake." As she spoke, her eyes lighted slightly, "You haven't seen Youyou yet, have you?"

Rong Zheng slightly widened his eyes, a little curious, "Is it the little princess Yijia? The little princess' baby name is Youyou."

"Yes." Song Qinghuan agreed, and from the corner of the eye, she caught a glimpse of Shen Xing walking out with the little princess in her arms, followed by Liu Yue, who got up and took the little princess over to coax her.

Rong Zheng also stood up.

After falling into Song Qinghuan's embrace, the little princess who was about to cry with her mouth curled up, her "humming, chirping" voice immediately became quieter, and she looked at Song Qinghuan with her mouth "battabada", her eyes like black grapes soaked in water.

Rong Zheng watched from the side, seeing the little princess's fleshy little hands clenched into fists and waving them excitedly, she suddenly felt her heart soften, she watched without blinking, her eyes were filled with joy.

Song Qinghuan raised her eyes to look at her, and said with a smile, "Azheng, do you want to hug her?"

"Eh?" Rong Zheng raised his eyebrows, and said a little excitedly, "I... can I?"

Song Qing encouraged with a smile, "Of course. But..." She elongated her tone and said in a slightly joking tone, "Youyou is a bit of a confidant. If she suddenly cries later, don't be nervous."

"Okay...okay..." Rongzheng answered in a low voice, settled down, and carefully hugged the little princess.

It's strange to say that when she just left Song Qinghuan's embrace, the little princess let out a "wow", as if she was really about to cry, but the strange thing was that as soon as she got close to Rongzheng's embrace, the crying stopped immediately, and she just stared at the With big round eyes, she looked at Rong Zheng curiously.

Song Qinghuan was slightly surprised.

It's the first time Rongzheng sees Youyou, and it's really strange that Youyou doesn't recognize her life.

"Your Highness, the little princess seems to like Miss Rong very much." Liu Yue said with a smile.

"Yes." Song Qinghuan pursed her lips and said with a smile, "Maybe it's because Azheng's smell is somewhat similar to Luoluo's, so the little guy has a sense of security."

"Who is Luoluo?" Rongzheng looked up curiously.

"It's the righteous sister of the prince." Song Qinghuan didn't explain Ye Luo's identity in detail, but said, "She also often comes into contact with medicinal herbs and spices on weekdays, and the smell on her body is about the same as yours."

Rongzheng nodded, seeing Xiaojun in his arms moved actively, he hurriedly withdrew his thoughts, hugged her carefully, not daring to move too much.She had never held a child before, so she was quite at a loss, but seeing the cute appearance of the little princess, she couldn't help but frowned with a smile.

However, Rong Zheng didn't dare to hug the little princess for too long because she had a high status after all, so she quickly handed the little princess to Song Qinghuan.

After sitting for a while, I didn't want to disturb you for too long, so I got up and said goodbye.

Seeing that the rain just stopped outside the window, Song Qinghuan didn't stay any longer and asked Liu Yue to send her out of the house because she still had some things to do.

Rong Zheng saluted and said goodbye, and left the room.

As soon as he went out, he looked up, and saw a person coming towards this side, wearing short black clothes and walking in a hurry, even though his head was lowered, Rong Zheng recognized her as Mu Bai at a glance.

His heartbeat was slightly stagnant, and his footsteps actually slowed down.

Mu Bai didn't know what was going on in his mind, but he didn't raise his head, Rong Zheng suddenly realized that there was someone in front of him, and looked up.

Rong Zheng was startled, and subconsciously fell backwards.
