Fengming Tianxia's Concubine Empress

Chapter 17
But before they could answer, they all fell to the ground and died bleeding from the corners of their mouths.

He and Tai looked at each other, then dragged the corpses to the side of the road, then walked to the carriage, and asked respectfully: "Miss Si, are you okay?"

"It's okay." Tang Chunya said in a flat tone, neither happy nor worried.

Tang Chunya continued to say: "Where are you now? Why did you stop?"

"Back to Fourth Miss, there are still more than ten miles away from Cangyue City, and it is estimated that we will arrive at Chenshi." He Tai said humbly.

"En." Tang Chunya nodded, but thought in her heart: It seems that the good show is about to begin.

Although he had a little understanding of Tang Chunya's temperament, it was the first time he had seen such a calm and calm woman like her, and he admired her from the bottom of her heart!He couldn't believe that Tang Chunya didn't hear such a big commotion outside, but she could still stay in the carriage as if nothing had happened, his bearing alone was far beyond his reach.

"Get on the horse!" Hetai shouted.

Everyone mounted their horses one after another, and He Yu also got into the carriage and drove forward quickly.

Prime Minister's Mansion--
In Shangguan Wanshan's boudoir, she was pacing back and forth anxiously, rubbing her hands together, showing the tension in her heart.

Suddenly, the door creaked and was pushed open, which startled Shangguan Wanshan and turned around quickly.

"Miss, it's me, Han Yan." Seeing the frightened expression on Shangguan Wanshan's face, the servant girl hastily explained in a low voice.

Shangguan Wanshan walked quickly to the servant girl, took her little hand and asked, "How is it?"

The maid looked around with a very cautious expression.

Seeing this, Shangguan Wanshan hurriedly lowered her head, put her ear to the maid's mouth, and listened carefully.

"What did you say? Is what you said true?" Shangguan Wanshan asked loudly with her mouth open in surprise.She couldn't believe what she heard was true.

"It's absolutely true." The maid nodded seriously.

Shangguan Wanshan staggered and took a few steps backwards, almost falling.The maid, Hanyan, quickly supported Shangguan Wanshan, and asked with concern: "Miss, are you alright?"

"No, nothing." Shangguan Wanshan waved her hands as she spoke, but anyone with a discerning eye could tell at a glance that Shangguan Wanshan was terrified at the moment, a lot of sweat had already formed on her forehead, and her hands were icy cold , the palms of the hands were also full of sweat, and the body trembled slightly.

"Miss, let me help you lie down on the bed and rest." Han Yan asked, pointing to the side of the bed.

Shangguan Wanshan looked at the servant girl and nodded abruptly, then followed Han Yan's footsteps and moved towards the bed...

Cangyue City, the gate of the city.

Outside the city gate, on the wide avenue, there were a few horse-drawn carriages parked here and there, and the carriages were also loaded with goods. It seemed that they were caravans going into the city for business.

It will take less than a quarter of an hour to reach the distance of only a dozen miles, but Tang Chunya and the others stopped not far away, quietly waiting for the city gate to open.

The gates of the city will not be opened until the hour of Chen Shi, and at this time the people waiting outside the city are also sitting on the grass beside the road to rest and chat.

He Yuze sat on the carriage with eyes closed and dozed off, and the rest of the people also held the horse with one hand and looked around with the other to prevent another killer from appearing.

Finally, the city gate opened slowly, and the people in front packed up their things, carried them on their shoulders, and walked in one after another.

Knowing that Miss Fourth was coming back today, the housekeeper ordered someone to guard the city gate early in the morning. Whenever he saw Miss Fourth's carriage, he would quickly run back to report.

No, as soon as He Yu and the others entered the city, they met people sent by the housekeeper, one of them said hello to Tang Chunya, and then ran quickly to the Prime Minister's Mansion.The other stayed and chatted with He Yu while walking slowly.

Although Hetai and others are the secret guards of Prime Minister Shangguanhe, they are the guards of the mansion on the surface, but they often travel on business and rarely work in the mansion. Only a few people have seen them, and the people who came to greet them today Is one of the few.

At the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"Heshun, what are you doing running so fast, and there is no tiger chasing you behind?" The guard at the gate watched him running over with sweat profusely, and asked jokingly.

"He, He Lu, Si, Miss Si is back." He Shun said with a smile.

"Really?" He Lu asked happily.

"Really, I won't tell you now, I have to report to the butler." He said and ran away without a trace.

Shangguan Wanchun is gentle and virtuous, with a pure heart, and she is also very kind to the servants, never beating or scolding them, so she is a rare good master in the eyes of the servants.

"Ouch!" The fourth aunt couldn't stand upright, and fell straight backwards, while the others had no time to react to the sudden collision, allowing the fourth aunt to squat on the ground.

When He Shun saw that it was the fourth concubine that he bumped into, he felt very annoyed. You must know that this fourth concubine was known as a tricky woman in the eyes of the servants, and she would insult and beat them from time to time. Anyone who upsets her will be punished, let alone hit her, but today he was very unlucky and bumped into the muzzle of a gun.

He Shun hurriedly knelt down on the ground, kowtowed to admit his mistake and said, "I'm sorry, Fourth Aunt, I didn't do it on purpose, I'm sorry."

The maid beside the fourth aunt came to her senses at this time, seeing that something was wrong, she hurriedly helped the fourth aunt up, and as soon as the fourth aunt stood still, she slapped the maid angrily, and then knelt down Heshun on the ground scolded: "You bastard with no eyes! How do you walk!" As soon as the words fell, the fourth aunt kicked Heshun.

"Fourth aunt, please forgive me, the slave didn't mean it." He Shun wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, then crawled to the fourth aunt's feet and continued to beg for mercy.

The fourth aunt was still about to explode, when suddenly a majestic voice came over: "Stop!"

Hearing Shangguanhe's voice, the fourth concubine Lihua threw herself into Shangguanhe's arms like rain, crying, "Master, this concubine almost won't see you, master!"

Shangguanhe looked at He Shun who was kneeling on the ground, the maid who was covering her cheek with one hand, and the dirt on the fourth aunt, and instantly understood what was going on. He has also heard about fame, but as long as it is harmless, he can let it go.So he patted the fourth aunt's back and comforted: "It's okay, it's okay, don't cry, how decent it is in front of so many servants." He smiled and lifted the fourth aunt's cheek, Gently brushing the tears off her cheeks.

"En." Fourth Aunt nodded too weakly.

The housekeeper who was following Shangguan and saw that the person kneeling on the ground was the person he had sent out to meet Miss Fourth, and asked in surprise: "He Shun, why are you here? Didn't you ask to see if Miss Fourth came back?" ?”

At this time, Shangguan He turned his attention to He Shun who was kneeling on the ground, and said coldly, "Get up and answer."
