Pretty Consort: Prince, Don't Run away

"Died in a hurry?" Song Chongjing did not expect things to turn out like this, he turned his head.

When he looked at the little girl again, he saw that she was looking at him innocently, as if she had something to say.

He thought for a moment and then coughed. He lowered his head and asked, "What do you have to say?"

The little girl pouted. After thinking for a while, she grabbed onto his clothes and said, "If you know this person, then take him away with you. Also, bring her parents' corpses with you as well. My mother said that they were dirty and wanted to curse. "

Hearing her ask that, Song Chongjing frowned and thought for a moment, but when he did not speak, he saw a woman dressed like a village woman coming out from the house.

He looked like he had done a lot of farming work. His figure was robust, but from between his brows, he was clearly a snobbish person.

The moment she came out, she pulled the little girl to the side and scolded her non-stop, "You loser, you really brought everyone home!"

Although she was scolding the little girl, she was staring at Song Chongjing.

Only now did she notice that this person's clothes did not look too bad. After thinking for a while, she saw the guard behind him.

"And he brought followers …" "You two, what are you doing in my house?"

The guard saw that Song Chongjing was silent, so he stepped forward and blocked his way. "We're here to look for someone."

With that, he raised his hand and pointed, "When did this little girl and her parents come to your place?"

When the village woman heard this, her eyebrows raised up as she scolded, "So you know this poor bastard! That's great! Take him away quickly!"

She then looked at the child in the room and swore, "When you came, you said you would get money immediately. Now, two people are dead and not a single one of them is looking for you!"

At this time, Song Chongjing took a look at the small courtyard.

He couldn't figure out what was going on either, but it probably wasn't simple.

"Take them away." As he thought about it, he lowered his voice and said.

Then he turned to leave.

However, the woman saw and came over. Although she was scared, she still pretended to be brave and shouted, "Hey, you guys are just going to leave like this. They've been eating and drinking for nothing, so why don't you pay for them?"

Song Chongjing could not wait to argue with her, he took out a silver ingot and threw it into her hands, then turned and left.

The village woman originally wanted to extort some money, but she didn't expect this person to sell her for five taels of silver. She was so happy that she almost fell to the ground.

By the time she reacted and asked to keep him, Song Chongjing was already gone.

He didn't bring many followers with him, but he did come by carriage. He only ordered people to bring him back to the palace quickly, and he followed them back on horseback.

After returning to the Duke's Palace, he explained everything to them. Then, after thinking about it, he added, "Don't tell the butler. Also, ask Lu Ming to come to my study."

With that, he turned and left for his study.

Attendant's legs were fast, and by the time Song Chongjing reached the entrance of the study room, Lu Ming was already there waiting.

However, he did not know what had happened, so he was somewhat perplexed. "I wonder what business does Your Highness have with this subordinate?"

"Come in." Song Chongjing shook his head.

After entering the room, he told Lu Ming about what happened today.

After Lu Ming heard this, he frowned and said in confusion, "This subordinate had been to a secret location before, but I've never seen such a large courtyard as this one …"

As the strategist of the Prince Jing Palace, he knew all the small things in the capital city. However, he knew nothing about this extremely luxurious mansion that was hidden outside the capital …

Lu Ming thought for a while, but suddenly lowered his voice and asked with furrowed brows: "I'm afraid this mansion is strange, will it not be safe if Princess Hua-Yang is there by herself?"

They must have raised quite a few assassins in the dark for them to have so much money.

"When I came out, I had already ordered the guards of the Palace to protect her in the dark. She had the army's firework in her hands, as long as we give the signal, our people would rush in. However, this courtyard … "In the end, something seems a little strange."

After Song Chongjing finished speaking, for some reason, he felt a little uneasy in his heart.

They had followed the trail all the way back, but now it ended. The other party had acted earlier than they had expected. He had a feeling that someone was plotting something behind the scenes, but he couldn't figure out what was going on.

He had a hunch that Song Qian was involved in this, but with his personality, he would never do something so delicate.

Just at that moment, Lu Ming suddenly asked: "The two people you brought back, have you seen a doctor? Those two are still alive, you might be able to find out what happened."

He suddenly paused, panic flashing through his eyes. He stood up and said, "Your Highness, since they have another plan, who knows? Perhaps people might find out. The wangfei, she …"

If that group of people were to act as he had thought, then he would say that they were willing to silence Song Chongjing so that he wouldn't know about this matter.

Then, if Xi Mengyao was alone …

Song Chongjing thought as cold sweat dripped down his back. He thought about the strange arrangement there, and also abruptly stood up, and immediately called for his personal bodyguard: "Immediately bring the hidden guard to that courtyard and protect the imperial concubine in secret. Remember, if there is anything strange, send someone back to report to me immediately.

The guard only felt that it was a bit strange, but he did not dare to retort. After nodding his head, he immediately turned around and led his men out.

At this time, Lu Ming was also standing at the door, he turned to look, and nodded, and the two immediately went to the room where the couple was placed.

The doctor was already there, pacing anxiously in front of the door.

Seeing that, Song Chongjing and the rest increased their pace to enter, not expecting the doctor to hear them. Turning his head to look, he was shocked, and immediately ran over to stop them: "Your Highness, Your Highness, you cannot come in!"

The man looked very pale, and he tried to stand by the door as he spoke, as if he were trying to avoid something. Lu Ming could tell that he was hiding with a glance. He only felt that something was amiss and hurriedly asked, "What disease are they suffering from?"

When the doctor heard this, he frowned and said with a trembling voice, "..." "Yes, it's the plague!"

"Plague?!" Even the two of them, who had prepared themselves mentally, jumped in fright when they heard this.

Lu Ming pulled Song Chongjing back a step as he asked with a frown, "Is it serious?"

Seeing that, the doctor also followed him out. After he closed the door, he wiped the sweat off his forehead and shook his head, "It seems like the disease has only started recently. It's just that... This old man isn't good at blight, so I can't tell if it's serious or not … If you really want to know, then you should ask this old man's close friend to come and take a look. "

Saying that, he turned around, "However, the two of you are very ill now, so you should be hard to control …" Your Highness should still move them elsewhere, so that the people in the manor won't be infected too. "

"I will arrange this. "Then, these two people will trouble Doctor." As he spoke, he stopped in his tracks and saw a child standing in the corner of the yard.
