MTL - Sweet Beauty-Chapter 32 Set off
The news of Zheng Donglan's death was quickly spread to the inn, and Zheng Xu was filled with grief and anger upon hearing the news, and fainted on the spot. When he woke up again, he ignored the advice of the servants around him, went straight to the Xin Palace, ignored his appearance and manners, and scolded Liu Xiu for being an untrustworthy villain. All back to true.
The alliance between Liu Xiong and Liu Yanshou was only finalized. The two sides had not yet joined forces to send troops, and such a change happened. The people behind it were really ulterior motives.
Guo Qu, Liu Ji and others did not dare to delay for a moment, and hurriedly entered the palace to discuss matters.
"I didn't expect the people behind the scenes to be so vicious. Not only would they insult the queen, but even Zheng Ji would not let them go. They were trying to destroy the alliance between the king and Zhending!"
Liu Xiu didn't say anything, just motioned him to keep his voice down and stop talking.
This person behind the scenes, he has his own estimates in his heart. The previous drug administration to Zhao Ji was aimed at destroying Zhao Ji's reputation, but it was not damaged at all by him as King Xiao. In the eyes of others, he found a justifiable reason for him to drive the queen mother's daughter away; The death of the daughter was aimed at destroying the alliance between him and Liu Yanshou.
In this way, it is not from the hands of one person.
There is a hidden speculation in his heart, but it has not been verified yet.
"Your Majesty, should Zheng Xu be brought back?" Liu Ji and others were very worried that the alliance with Zhending would fall apart.
Liu Yu didn't answer, but asked Guo Qu, "What do you think, Junqing?"
Guo Qu stroked his beard and thought for a moment before saying, "I don't think it's necessary. Zheng Nv is not a princess after all. Although King Zhen Ding trusts the state minister very much, he will not be confused in such a big matter. The top priority is to send troops immediately to solve the problem. The perimeter of true determination, in this way, will not change in the short term."
Liu Xiu took it seriously, so he ordered the scheduled departure the day after tomorrow to be moved up to this afternoon, that is, two hours later.
All of a sudden, everyone dispersed, waiting in an array.
…
In the bedroom, when Liu Yu hurried back, A Shu was staring blankly at the cracked pottery bottle on the case.
This is the antidote sent by Liu An's trustees before the incident. She thought about it that night, but she still left it in the house and didn't take it with her. This thing is made of pottery, and it is not as good as bamboo slips, silk and silk, etc. that can be burned. Afterwards, because she could not find an opportunity to deal with it, she had to hide it quietly at the bottom of the box, waiting to find an opportunity to take it out of the palace.
But she could never have imagined that Liu Xiong, who never stayed in the house, would actually touch her things privately while she was still awake, and even take out such a hard-to-find thing hidden at the bottom of the box!
As keen as he is, he must have known her clumsy thoughts, and he doesn't know if he will go back on it and not let her go.
Just thinking about it, someone outside the house reported: "The king is back."
A Shu was shocked, and subconsciously looked at the still early sky outside the house, and immediately saw Liu Yu's face condensed, and hurriedly stepped inside.
Her eyes were full of fear, and because of her guilty conscience, she only twisted her sleeves tightly and looked at him cautiously. Although she doubted that he would return before noon, she did not dare to approach, let alone ask questions.
On the other hand, Liu Xiong, with his eyes uncertain and expressionless, said: "I will set off for an expedition in the afternoon, and I will ride a fast horse and go south, just past Zhao County. If you still want to go back to Handan, then pack up and go with me. ." He glanced calmly at the box that was still by the wall, "If you can't catch up, don't even think about going back to Handan."
After saying that, without waiting for her to react, he took the body armor and put it on randomly, and then left in a hurry.
After Ashu stared at him reciting the video for a moment, Fang recalled what he had said, and was immediately overjoyed. He took up his skirt and stepped out of the house, beckoning to Queer, "Quick, pack up, and pass by. After noon, we will go back to Handan!"
The maids first looked at each other, and then hurried in.
As she rode lightly on a fast horse, she couldn't bring all her luggage with her. She made a quick decision, took only the important change of clothes and daily utensils, stuffed a suitcase, and then discarded all the items next to her.
Just now, she was worried that the trip would fail, but now that she has an opportunity, she naturally can't miss it no matter what.
It only took half an hour to do so, not only did he finish dressing up, but Liu Yu's clothes were also packed, and he could leave the city only when the hour came.
At this moment, Liu Yu left, but did not leave the palace directly, but detoured to Madam Fan's house. After hesitating for a moment, Fang stepped forward and stood at a battle outside the door. Sister-in-law bids farewell."
This courtyard has always been clean, and there are few people except Guo Mi, who is by Mrs. Fan's side, and the nurse and maid who serve the second youngest son. At the moment, Po Nu and A Dai are being led by their wet nurse to play elsewhere, and only Mrs. Fan and Guo Li are in the house.
The room was silent for a while, and then there was the sound of footsteps. Guo Mi came out of the room and invited him into the room sideways: "Your Majesty, please come in."
Liu Yu stepped in and saw that the doors and windows of the house were closed, which was slightly dark, and the copper stove was full of green smoke, and the smell was strong. Madam Fan's face was pale, her eyebrows were closed, and she seemed to be leaning on the side of the couch very tired. When she heard footsteps, Fang Mianli opened her eyes and said with a smile: "Zhong Yuan is here, I just heard you say that the expedition is imminent. , why are you in such a hurry?"
Liu Xiu stopped outside the battle, and slightly cupped his hands and said, "Zheng Nv suddenly committed suicide last night. It was an emergency and I had to leave today." She will also go with me. There is no one in the palace, and I need to ask my sister-in-law to take care of Ah Zhao. Ziyu will also stay in the city, and if there is anything else, you can find him and send me a letter."
Speaking of Zhao Ji, Mrs. Fan's eyelids twitched, and then she said calmly, "It's right to take care of Ah Zhao, but I'm frail and I didn't have time to take care of it a while ago, which caused Ah Zhao to make a lot of trouble." Worried, he hesitated, "Zhong Yuan, this is an expedition, how can you bring Zhao Ji by your side? Be careful when you are outside, don't miss a big thing for a small thing next to you."
Liu Xiu's dark eyes flickered slightly: "It's okay, I just want to take a detour to the south quietly before I send her a ride." He suddenly looked cold and said solemnly, "Besides, there seems to be someone in this letter. I'm very afraid of Zhao Ji, if I'm not here, she'll be unpredictable, it's better to follow her wishes and let her live in Handan."
Mrs. Fan's face stiffened for a moment. She reached out and took a sip from the lacquered cup on the case. Fang calmly said, "I can't believe that Zhong Yuan will think about Zhao Ji like this in just a few months."
Liu Yu raised his eyebrows, trying to see some flaws, but it was in vain.
He didn't stay any longer, and only said two more words before leaving. Before leaving, he looked complicated and meaningful, and said to Mrs. Fan, "Sister-in-law, there is something I have never mentioned."
"What's the matter?"
"At that time, my brother passed away. I was shackled by Zhang Hou and Geng Yun, and I didn't dare to overstep a little. I didn't even dare to search for my brother's body. County. Zhao Ji acted in my name because she was afraid of causing a misunderstanding by my sister-in-law."
After he finished speaking, he looked at Mrs. Fan.
Madam Fan opened her closed eyes, but after a moment of daze, she returned to calm. She closed her eyes again and said softly, "So, Zhao Ji is bothered."
…
At noon, the army was ready. Liu Jiu divided the 25,000 people who were going on the expedition into two groups. Among them, 24,000 people followed Liu Ji and attacked directly from the back of the Julu and Zhongshan coalition forces. The other 1,000 people rode lightly and followed him from the south. , quietly rushed to Zhending to help Liu Yanshou retreat from the enemy.
Because she had sent people to investigate the situation in advance, Ashu led three or two servants and packed two suitcases and took a carriage out of the city to wait outside the camp.
Seeing her doing so lightly and simply walking, Liu Yu couldn't help but be surprised in her heart, although she was still indifferent. But in a twinkling of an eye and anger from the heart, she was so eager to leave!
He couldn't help but snorted coldly, rode his horse closer, and said solemnly: "The next few days will be all day and night, so I can only send you to Quliang, and from Quliang to Handan, I will send another hundred people to **** you."
When he spoke, he was extremely indifferent, and he completely lost the very loving appearance he made in front of others in the past, which surprised the rest of the waiting soldiers. Could it be that Zhao Ji is so quickly disgusted by the king?
Ah Shu was standing beside the carriage, biting her lip on her back, straightening her back, trying to look at him, her petite figure was particularly thin in the cool late autumn west wind.
The man sitting on the horse in front of him, looking down at her, was on the bed last night, and he had clearly called out her boudoir name in a very gentle way. Now, the sour feeling left by her last night's affair has not faded, but he has So cool.
A daze and daze flashed in her eyes, and then she remembered that she had deceived first, then she lowered her eyes silently, and smiled softly: "The concubine has already caused trouble for the king. Yesterday, I finished my book and went to Handan. Qu Liang, my brother will come to meet him, the battle is very important, and there is no need to send someone to **** the concubine."
Since he knew the truth, she no longer had to hide from her brother about cultivating the book, so she came out frankly.
Everyone else couldn't bear to see her such a reasonable appearance. However, Liu Xiu was suffocated. In order to leave, she was able to think so thoroughly!
With a heavy snort, he turned his horse's head to the front of the line, and ordered to start.
For a time, the team of more than 10,000 people divided into two groups, and they marched forward in a mighty manner.
Although the carriage that Ah Shu rode in was quite spacious and comfortable, it had to rush along with it, and it was bumpy and uncomfortable.
But for two hours, she felt as if her whole body was falling apart, sore and painful. But even so, when she remembered that she was going to Handan, she clenched her teeth again, and she didn't want to complain no matter how much she suffered.
Seeing her like this, the servants who accompanied her did not dare to complain.
However, Liu Yu, who was walking in the front, felt pity in the end, and from time to time made excuses to look back, as if hoping that she would show weakness a little. But it was like this for another hour, and until the sunset, she didn't wait for a look from her.
Disappointed, he led the crowd to a high ground near the water source and ordered to set up camp.
