prince attendant

Qinghu bent down and picked up the golden step shaker. When he got up, the carriage had stopped slowly, and a white finger stretched out from the side window to open a gap in the curtain.

Whether it was the followers or others, they all stopped, but no one came to take the golden step.

Qinghu had no choice but to pick up the golden step, took a step forward, stretched out his hand to pass the golden step, and said

"Girl, you lost your things."

When the voice fell, the hand had already closed the curtain, revealing a luxuriously dressed face inside. When the noble ladies expected to be a dignified and benevolent woman, this woman's face was dressed in a way that revealed Li's fierce image, at this moment, she lowered her eyes, looking at Qinghu, until Qinghu stretched out the walking rocker to her hand, then she took it, and then used this walking rocker to support the falling body because of the removal of her fingers. Curtain, but the eyes are still looking at Qinghu.

Qinghu waited for a while, and when she was about to leave, the woman spoke

"What's your name?"

It was a condescending tone, but it was not deliberate contempt, but because of the habit formed by staying in the position of being complimented for a long time. Perhaps it is a rare experience to ask a person's name proactively like this.

Qinghu lowered his eyes, turned his head and saluted the woman in the carriage, and said

"At the lower Yanqing Lake."

"Which "yan" character?"

"Reluctantly, the flowers fall, and the word "Yan" in the return of Yan seems to be familiar."

After a moment of silence, the owner of the waggle looked at him with a smile in his eyes

"Won't you ask my name?"

He saluted again by the side of Qinghu Lake, and said without any change in tone

"Meeting by chance, I dare not ask the girl's name."

The other party lowered the curtain, leaving only one language

"I remember you."

Qinghu raised his head, only to see the vermilion nails retracted because of the falling curtain, and then, the richly decorated carriage moved forward again.

Standing aside, Ming Guang didn't intervene, surprisingly, until after the chariots and horses had left, he said to Qing Hu thoughtfully.

"Qinghu, why do I feel something is wrong?"

Qinghu couldn't help smiling, didn't take his words, but asked

"Do you know who she is?"

Mingguang was surprised.

"Don't you know?"

The conversation just now was obviously the first meeting.

Qinghu shook his head and said

"I don't know, but there is a guessing direction."

Mingguang asked

"who is it?"

Qinghu continued to walk forward, recalling the woman's face and behavior just now, and replied in a very flat tone

"The expression is similar to that of His Highness the Crown Prince. If my guess is correct, it should be the legendary Princess Chaoyang."

In late spring, the flowers and plants are luxuriant, and the sun is shining, yet there is no unbearable heat, but there is enough sunlight to make everything look like it is coated with a white light.

Mu Qing stood aside, holding the one that His Highness the Crown Prince was looking at just now, with a vermilion lacquer body, a silver-white arrow, and a plum blossom carved on the side of the tail feathers.

"Is this the arrow from the Hanmei Divine Barracks?"

The Hanmei Shenbing Battalion is an elite military camp inherited from the previous dynasty. It is good at bows and arrows. The bows and arrows supplied to the Hanmei Shenbing Battalion are all engraved with the plum blossom logo and code with special paint. Every bow and arrow has its owner.

The creator of the Hanmei Shenbing Battalion was the Yang family of the previous dynasty, but the entire Yang family was wiped out in the Changsheng Rebellion. Now the Han family is in charge of the Shenbing Battalion, and it is also controlled by the grandfather of the second prince. However, How did this arrow get into the hands of the prince.

Ji Yi sat at the side making tea, watched the rising mist, and said slowly

"Do you see anything wrong?"

Mu Qing knelt aside and said

"There is no number on this arrow, why did His Highness find such an arrow?"

Because the Hanmei Divine Army Battalion was left over from the previous dynasty, it was originally feared, but the Han family was also dedicated to serving the country, but perhaps because of the destruction of the Yang family in the previous dynasty, this army was quite biased and took revenge. To serve the country, but not to be close to the emperor, just because the dynasty was established at a time of crisis, and thought that the way was wrong. Excluding the Shenbing Battalion really aroused the anger of all the people in the house, thinking that the army could not stay.

However, Emperor Taizu did not kill innocent people indiscriminately, but also loved talents, so he wanted to recruit the Shenbing Battalion, but so many elite soldiers would be excluded even if they were sent to other places. After assassinating the person, in order to solve the problem, each arrow in the Hanmei Shenbing Battalion was ordered to have a certain number when it was forged. Arrows share honor and disgrace, and arrows without numbers are discarded arrows, and if someone loses an arrow, it is a big offense.

And because the Han family is the family of the second prince's relatives, they have never been close to His Royal Highness, how could such an arrow appear in the Prince's mansion.

Ji Yi opened his mouth to answer Mu Qing's words, saying

"Because someone shot an arrow in Chengyang and attacked the young master of the Le family. Le Yannian is the official in charge. This arrow attacking his son is a warning."

"what?"

Mu Qing was a little surprised. Could it be that someone wanted to imitate what happened in the previous dynasty and set the blame again, but——Mu Qing wondered

"That's the case, shouldn't this arrow be sent to the Shenbing Battalion to ask them to investigate themselves?"

How to send it to the prince's mansion, do you expect the prince to give an explanation?

Ji Yi stretched out his hand to slowly pour out the boiled tea, put another cup in front of Mu Qing, and said

"This arrow came out of the Hanmei Shenbing Battalion. Besides, the Shenbing Battalion is now stationed at the border. How can we check ourselves? Is it possible that it will be sent to the border for thousands of miles?"

Mu Qing said

"Although the Shenbing Battalion is at the border, the Han family is in Chengyang—"

Mu Qing spoke halfway, then stopped suddenly, and said somewhat uncertainly

"Could it be that it's not just putting blame on it, but really suspecting that there is something wrong with the Divine Army Battalion, but there is no number on it, maybe it hasn't been sent to the Divine Army Battalion—"

Mu Qing paused for a moment, then suddenly remembered something, lowered her head to look carefully, and touched it with her hands, only to feel a slight difference. It was at the position where the number should have been engraved, and it was a bit different from the roughness of other places. trace.

That's right, the bows and arrows dedicated to the Hanmei Shenbing Battalion have always been rationed, no more, no less, how can there be extra arrows, and the logo on them also has a unique identification method, since they are sent to His Highness the Crown Prince, look It doesn't look like the imitated shape.

Mu Qing put the arrow on the table, looked up at His Royal Highness, and asked

"Then, what is your Highness going to do? The second prince relied on the convenience of the Han family, and made many achievements in battle with the Hanmei Shenbing Battalion. If you participate, it will be said that the Shenbing Battalion is not good. Before anyone is found out about the assassination, I'm afraid I will fall into the trap of thinking that you are deliberately suppressing the second prince."

"Qingqing's words are quite good."

Ji Yi smiled slightly and said

"So we naturally do nothing. This arrow was sent to Bengong to ask Bengong to pull it in. I told you about this today, but also to warn you. If someone finds you because of related things , just ignore it, instead of worrying about this arrow with unknown intentions, let’s worry about tomorrow’s negotiations with the envoys of the Chasing Cloud Kingdom.”
