Prince does not come

It was night, the moon was shining brightly, and Xuanguo Palace was peaceful.

The man sitting on the dragon chair shook his head lightly, with joy on his face, he praised: "This thousand-year-old snake gall is really a good thing."

Xuan Yun, the monarch of Xuan Kingdom, had a sudden headache half a year ago, and he was dying of pain all day long.The imperial physicians in the imperial hospital were helpless after seeing it.

The queen gave Xuan Yun an idea, saying why not send out the imperial list and offer a huge reward for recruiting famous Chinese doctors all over the country.

When Xuan Yun heard it, he thought it made sense, so he immediately published the imperial list.

However, many famous doctors came, but the headache didn't ease at all. On the contrary, after taking various medicines, it became more serious.

At this time, the prime minister gave Xuan Yun another idea, saying that it is not enough to have famous doctors in Xuanguo, and he should recruit famous doctors from all over the world.

So Xuan Yun issued the second imperial list, saying that no matter who can cure his head disease, besides a lot of money, he will marry a princess to him.

As soon as the announcement came out, countries quickly got the news, and it turned out that there were more people coming than before.

After tossing and tossing for a few more days, finally, Xuan Yun's headache finally improved after eating the thousand-year-old snake gall presented by the magic tart.

Suddenly, an urgent sound came, breaking the peaceful atmosphere in the palace.

"Your Majesty, the prince is gone again." The chief eunuch Laixi hurried over with an anxious expression on his face.

Xuan Yun frowned, looked up at Laixi.Just as he wanted Chi Cheng to chase him back, he suddenly remembered that these days when he had a headache, it was the prince who was dealing with government affairs, and it was indeed hard work, anyway, he was just wandering around the capital every time.

Thinking of this, he deliberately asked him to go out to relax, and said: "I know, let him go, and let Chi Cheng send someone to protect him secretly."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." The queen on the side couldn't help but feel a little ashamed. My son was quite obedient when he was a child, but after becoming a crown prince, he ran out every day, and Jin Yiwei caught him every time.

Xuan Yun nodded, and then asked thoughtfully: "Queen, which princess do you want to send to Yanta?"

The Magic Tart is not a good place.Not to mention that he is just a small tribe located in a remote place. Among the key tribes, snakes are a favorite. It is said that snakes roam all over the ground in the tribe, and every household must have dozens of snakes.

Although there is only one prince in the royal family of Xuan Kingdom, there are more than [-] princesses, and there are more than a dozen of them who are of the right age.As early as when the imperial list was issued, the queen had already thought about the candidate, and said: "In my opinion, Xuanhe is the right one."

Xuanhe is 16 years old this year. His biological mother is only a talented person. She was raised under Lin Zhaoyi's knees, and her mother's family has no one in the court.

Xuan Yun nodded, it was settled.Said: "Let her leave early"

The magic tart's snake gallbladder has been delivered for a month, and it will be unreasonable to delay it any longer.

"Yes" the queen replied, and then she revealed the matter, and picked some interesting things to tell Xuan Yun.

When Laixi came outside the hall, Chi Chenghuan, the Commander of Jin Yiwei, knelt in front of the hall to plead guilty.

Because of the imperial list, the number of people entering the capital increased suddenly, and the crown prince had been living in peace for a few days, so many of the Jinyi guards in the East Palace were withdrawn, but the crown prince was lost again.

Seeing that Laixi came out, his complexion was quite normal, he hurriedly asked: "Eunuch Laixi, what does the emperor say?"

Lai Xixu gave him a hand, and said: "Commander, please get up quickly, the emperor asked the commander to send more people to carefully protect the prince."

"Not chasing it back?" Chi Cheng was taken aback.According to past practice, he must be chased back immediately, otherwise he should leave Beijing.

"The emperor said to let the prince go," Laixi said.

"Yes" Chi Cheng hurriedly got up and left, if it was late, it would be hard to find someone even if he was out of Beijing.

Early in the morning of the second day, the Queen's order arrived at Yuxue Pavilion.Lin Zhaoyi went to greet the queen and before she came back, Xuanhe accepted the order alone.

The little eunuch opened the decree and read: "Empress Xuan's decree, the eighteenth princess Xuan He is gentle and virtuous, and will leave for Yanta in three days."

"What?" Xuan He, who had heard the Queen's decree, was like a blow to the head, and was stunned all of a sudden. He stared at the eunuch who made the decree with wide eyes, and tears filled his eyes quickly.

"Princess, accept the decree." The eunuch Xuanzhi handed the decree to Xuan He.

Xiaohui, the close maid next to her, lightly touched Xuanhe's clothes, and Xuanhe came back to his senses, but he didn't reach out to receive the order, and cried, "Elder-in-law, I want to see my father, I want to see my father." Emperor, I will not go to the magic tart"

The Xuanzhi eunuch sighed softly, "Princess, this is also what Your Majesty meant."

Xuan He's heart sank to the bottom of the valley in an instant, he closed his eyes slightly, let the tears fall, and slowly stretched out his hand to accept Yi Zhi.Kowtowing his head full of sadness, he said, "Xuan He accepts Yi's decree"

"Princess, prepare well," the eunuch Xuanzhi said in a low, sympathetic voice, then turned and left.

Xuan He knelt on the ground heartbroken, tears streaming down his face, and the Yizhi in his hand was drenched with tears in no time.

The Demon Tart Tribe is as famous as Liang Guolong Division, one is called Purgatory on Earth, and the other is called Hell Shura.Don't talk about it, I usually have lingering fears even mentioning it.

Xiaohui also panicked, if the princess went to Yanta, the maid would definitely not be able to escape.Quickly helped Xuan He up on the ground, and said, "Princess, what should I do?"

But Xuan He shook his head with a pale face. She is just an unfavored princess, and no one will care about her life. He said nonchalantly, "Xiaohui, go to the Imperial Hospital to get some medicine." I have understood since I was a child that there is only one thing to be able to make decisions when you are born in the royal family.

Xiaohui was startled, and hurriedly said, "Princess?"

"Go." Xuan He lowered his eyes, and whispered decisively.

Seeing Xuanhe's determination to die, Xiaohui panicked, looked around quickly, closed the doors and windows, and said in a low voice, "Princess, I have a way."

Although Xuan He thought it was impossible, he still raised his head and asked, "What method?"

Xiaohui leaned close to Xuanhe's ear and whispered something.

"Is... okay?" Xuan He hesitated.

Xiaohui has been following Xuan He's side all the time, knowing that Xuan He has been shaken, she added fuel to the fire, saying: "Princess, it's enough for someone to go in three days, and besides, no one has seen Princess Yanta."

Xuan He still felt that something was wrong, and said: "But if Father knows..."

"Princess" Xiaohui thought for a while, and said: "As long as the wedding procession is gone, let's beg the emperor again, the emperor is merciful, and will definitely not go into it."

There is no better way now, Xuan He thought about it and agreed.Let Xiaohui secretly find a court lady who is about the same size as her, and bribe her.On the day of marriage, the maid was asked to put on the princess' wedding dress and get on the sedan chair.

The unfavored princess married to a remote small tribe, there was no lure, not to mention it was a place full of snakes and rats, and no one wanted to go there. In the end, there were only a dozen soldiers escorting the sedan chair to Yantar.

Seeing that there were only a dozen thin and weak soldiers, the maid felt that something was wrong. Didn't she marry into the servant of the Ministry of War? Why did she leave the city?After a side-by-side questioning, I found out that it was actually going to Yantat, and my mind went into a mess.In the middle of the night, when everyone was asleep, she tiptoed up, took off her wedding clothes, and ran away quietly.

Early the next morning, Xi Niang went to the room to call for someone, but no one answered for a long time, she stretched out her hand and gently knocked on the door.

With a "squeak", the door opened.

Seeing the bright red wedding dress on the bed at a glance, Xi Niang hurried in and looked around, the quilt on the bed was neatly folded, where is there anyone else?Immediately panicked, and shouted: "Come on, come on, the princess is gone."

Hearing the voice, the soldier downstairs ran up quickly, and when he saw the situation in the house, he yelled that something was wrong.

The escorted princess was lost, and going back would be a death penalty.

"Boss, what should we do?" Everyone didn't want to come, but now that this kind of thing happened again, apart from being afraid, they were full of anger.

The person called the boss is Wu Peng, the leader of this team of soldiers.

Wu Peng touched the cold bed, but he ran away without knowing when.

On second thought, as long as someone arrives at the Magic Tart, whoever is she?No one in Magic Tart knew the princess either.Besides, the princess would definitely not dare to return to the palace after she ran away, and no one knew about it.Convenience: "Just go to the street and grab one and send it quickly"

"How can this be done?" Xi Niang was startled and frightened, isn't this deceiving the emperor?Weeping and saying: "The princess is gone, so you went to find it."

"Look for it? Where can I look for it? If you want to find it yourself, we brothers don't have that kind of leisure." Wu Peng was angry at first, worrying that he had nowhere to vent, so he bulged his eyes and roared.

The soldier's voice was loud and his eyes were fierce, Xi Niang suddenly fell silent after this roar.I could only watch as they tied a girl from nowhere and stuffed them into the sedan chair.

The girl struggled all the way and kept yelling. Hearing that the soldiers were very upset, they took a piece of cloth and stuffed it into the girl's mouth. After walking for two or three days, the girl cried for two or three days. It was really pitiful, so he took off the cloth and said a few words of comfort.

The girl's eyes were swollen from crying, and her voice was hoarse. She held Xi Niang's hand tightly, and begged: "Auntie, please save me, Auntie, please, I still have parents at home. I really can't go", crying like rain, saying heartbreakingly.

Xi Niang is also soft-hearted, and she is also a mother. Thinking about her daughter, she couldn't bear it anymore. She sighed, patted the girl's hand, and said, "Don't cry, I will find a way." In fact, she also I don't want to go for a long time.

So I took the girl and ran away that night. Anyway, I resisted the order, and it was not bad.

On the second day, all the soldiers slept until the sun was high, and when they got up, they didn't see Xi Niang and the princess.

"Damn it," Wu Peng spat.The princess ran away, and now Xi Niang also ran away, leaving a mess, but he couldn't run away.

"Brother, what should we do now?"

"What else can I do?" Wu Peng rolled his eyes at the person who asked the question, full of complaints and no place to vent.

The group of people had no choice but to repeat the same trick, snatched another girl and stuffed it into the sedan chair, and set off on the road.

This girl is very cooperative, not noisy, and occasionally sings a few ditties, which are quite nice.All the little soldiers asked her to sing a few lines for fun, and the time passed faster when they had fun. In a blink of an eye, they arrived at the border of the Xuan Kingdom, and walking to the left for more than ten days was a nightmare.

suddenly,

"Stop", twenty or thirty fierce men with knives came, each with a big knife, shiny, and stood in the middle to block the way.

The soldiers sent off for marriage are all dawdling in the army, and they haven't even drawn out their knives a few times on weekdays. When they saw the passers-by, they couldn't speak clearly, "Who are you?"

The leader, a man with a scar, pointed his knife at everyone, and said: "If you want money or your life, choose it."

Everyone complained incessantly, life is important, money is also important, this trip not only won't make any money, it won't cost money, right?After all, Wu Peng has been called the eldest brother for several years, so he is more courageous.Looking at the road in front of him, he turned his head and had an idea.Immediately, he straightened his chest, stopped shaking his feet, and said loudly: "We are the team that will escort the princess to the Kingdom of Liang to marry her."

"Liang Guo? Who is it?" The man with the knife frowned as he looked at the sparse people on the opposite side.

Wu Peng thought that the person on the opposite side was afraid, so he became more confident in an instant, and said loudly: "The Regent of the Liang Kingdom!"

Anyway, they are all fake, of course the one with the most weight is the Regent of the Liang Kingdom, who is vicious, cruel and ruthless, and everyone is frightened by it, so he was given the nickname: Hell Shura.

There is a saying that goes like this, it is better for Huang Quan to provoke the king of Hades than to descend to see Shura.Jianglou is the capital of Liang State.

The robbers were startled, Shura was not joking, one careless will be killed.

The people in the sedan chair were even more startled. It's okay. She, a counterfeit, might be late before she enters the mansion after she gets married.

"Wait a minute," the robbers led by him hesitated for a while, then walked back after leaving a word.

After discussing with a frail scholar behind for a while, he returned to his previous position and said, "We don't want the money anymore."

All the little soldiers secretly breathed a sigh of relief, as expected, the name of Hell Shura is not for nothing, and it is also thanks to the old brain's quick brain.

"But..." The bandit leader paused.

All the little soldiers raised their heads to look at the speaker, their hearts raised again.

"Darling, let's go and deliver it," the bandit leader was resolute.The reward for sending relatives is not a small sum, let alone the regent's relatives.

Money, big money!

"This... I'm afraid it's not right," Wu Peng said awkwardly, and glanced at the frail scholar standing behind him. He didn't look like a good person, what kind of idea was this.

"What are you looking at?" Scar's face moved, blocking the peeping sight, and said slightly angrily, "Get out of here, or you will be here guarding the mountain for the rest of your life."

"Brother, what should we do now?" The soldier standing behind asked in a low voice.

Wu Peng's eyes almost turned to his head, could he stop saying this all the time.

Not to mention that I only have a dozen people, but there are 30 to [-] people on the opposite side, and I can't beat them even one-on-one.Sighing in my heart, this is not a princess anyway, who cares who she marries?It’s fine to send one more person to Yantai, and if you really ask, just kill him and refuse to admit it.

When he had an idea, he didn't have to worry about it, he immediately agreed, and led a group of soldiers back a few feet to stand behind the carriage, waving his hands to let the robbers take the carriage away.

This is worrying for the people in the car, who are about to leave Xuanguo.But fortunately, after this delay, the sun had already set, and after a short walk, we arrived at the most remote town in Xuanguo. Because we wanted to see off our relatives, everyone had to buy decent clothes, so we only left The two guarded the princess, and the rest of the people went out.

Seeing that the opportunity came, the girl luckily brought some drugs with her, so she poured two cups of tea, put some drugs in it, and brought them to the two people at the door to drink.The two people at the door passed out after a while. When the girl was about to leave, she heard someone coming up the stairs. She was so nervous that her heart was beating violently.Hastily turned around and went back to the house, hid in the crack of the door and took a look,

I saw the visitor, one point charming, two points domineering, three points serious, four points unruly, five points elegant, six points elegant, seven points free and easy, eight points luxurious, nine points drunk, very good-looking.

The girl thought, if she left like this, someone would definitely come after her, why not...

After making up his mind, he gently opened the door, and quietly followed the man in front, who lived next to him, turned around and went in, but did not close the door.

The girl tiptoed in, and saw the man lying on the bed as soon as he entered the room. When he got closer, he found that he had already fallen asleep, so he put away the drug in his hand, and hurriedly dragged him to her bed. room.

I changed into a wedding dress and put it on with him, it was a little smaller, and it was a little tight.However, the costumes are complicated, and you can't see it unless you look carefully.

After changing it, I looked at it and found that it was still not good, and the face could be seen as a man.He took out the rouge again, poured a whole box of it on his face, stretched out his hands and touched it randomly, his face instantly became extremely white, and he smeared his lips bright red, just like an opera singer.

At a glance, it is already impossible to distinguish between men and women.Putting on the red hijab, he was still worried when he was about to leave, so he mixed a pack of the drug in his arms with water, it would take ten days to go to Liang Guoshao, one pack might not be enough, so he put all the drug in his arms I went in and stirred it quickly until it was as thick as a bowl of porridge. I used a spoon to pry my lips and teeth, but I couldn't pry it open.

The girl had no choice but to sweep her nose with her hair, and when she sneezed, she poured all her brains in, choking the man to cough.Looking at the empty bottom of the bowl, the girl was satisfied, pulled off her hijab, and ran away without looking back.

After everyone came back, they saw the two people fainted at the door, and quickly opened the door to go in. Fortunately, the princess was lying on the bed.

"Master, why is this princess sleeping with a hijab on?"

"What do you care? Besides, she is a princess, can she be like ordinary people?" The head patted the questioner on the head, "No brains"

The man felt his head shaking vigorously, and he shrank his neck so hard that he didn't dare to speak.

Hurrying all the way, a group of robbers finally arrived at Jianglou, the capital of the Liang Kingdom, after one month. A group of people stopped at the gate of the city, took out the suona they had prepared, played hard, and entered the city in a lively manner. go.

"Squad, go ask how to get to the Prince Regent's Mansion?" Looking at the bustling capital, the head of the family felt that he had come to the right place. He even felt that the silver reward was already in front of him, so he couldn't wait to give an order.

"Who is marrying a daughter here? Why is it so shabby?" The people on the side of the road looked at everyone and whispered.

The group randomly pulled a person by the side of the road and asked, "Old man, how can I get to the Prince Regent's Mansion?"

The old man is a bit deaf, he only hears... how to get there?Then he asked loudly: "What? Where are you talking about?"

Oops, the team got anxious and roared loudly: "The Regent, the Regent's Palace!"

With this roar, the whispers around suddenly fell silent, and everyone stared at the group dumbfounded.

When the group met, they didn't know why, and asked embarrassingly: "What...what's the matter?"

The old man heard this time, pointed forward enthusiastically, and said: "The Prince Regent's Mansion, just follow this road and you will arrive there."

The team thanked them, looked at the stunned people around them, they were very puzzled, they were just asking for directions, why were they so surprised?After replying to the head of the family's words, the group swaggered towards the Prince Regent's Mansion.

After a long while, the people around came back to their senses, looked at the sedan chair going away and looked at each other in blank dismay, "He... just said that it was the Prince Regent's Mansion?"

Someone replied in a low voice, "You don't know, a few days ago..." After a pause, he pointed to the front, and then continued, "I just bought red silk and satin."

"Red silk and satin? Are you really going to get married?" The person next to him also lowered his voice and asked.

"Then can it be false?" The speaker swore that he had seen it himself.

The person next to him looked at the sedan chair going away, and still had doubts on his face: "But...the sedan chair also..."

After walking for about a stick of incense, I saw a majestic mansion from a distance. On the plaque were written four big characters: Regent's Mansion.

There are two tall and mighty guards at the door, their faces are very scary.But the people who sent off their relatives were not only not afraid, but felt a sense of familiarity in their hearts. They took a deep breath, puffed their cheeks and blew a few times, and then arrived in front of the Prince Regent's Mansion.

Looking at the shabby team, the two guards yelled, "Go away, you can stay in front of the palace too."

The head of the family's face sank for a moment, remembering the instructions of the second head, he forced a smile and said: "Brother, we are here to give you a wedding, and there is the princess regent inside."

princess?The guard glanced at the dilapidated bridal sedan chair. Recently, the mansion was indeed being arranged, saying that he was going to marry the princess, but he didn't say it would be here so soon.Besides, when the princess got married, why didn't the prince welcome her in, but came directly by herself?Besides, it's just too shabby.He hesitated and asked, "Is it really the princess?"

The head of the family stood up straight, and said quite boldly: "Of course it's true."

The two guards couldn't believe it when they saw the sparse crowd of senders off. They hesitated and asked politely: "Your sender off...?"

The boss was a little puzzled, what happened to his team?

Looking back at his team, they were neat and tidy, and everyone was happy, just like what they had agreed before entering the city, there was no problem.I also remembered that when I set off, the second boss specially told me that as long as there are questions that cannot be answered, you only need to nod and say yes.

So the head of the family turned his head, looked at the two of them calmly, nodded meaningfully, and said, "En".

Seeing that the two guards were puzzled, it was not easy to ask again.They looked at each other, unable to make up their minds.But it just so happened that today the prince took the housekeeper to the suburbs. At this time, there was only a group of guards left in the mansion, and no one could be the master.

The two thought about it for a while, and if it was fake, it would be fine.But if it's really a princess, it's a big deal to be negligent. After thinking about it, no one would dare to pretend to be the regent princess.

So he opened the door, let everyone enter the palace, and went to the suburbs to find the prince himself.
