miscalculation

Chapter 121 Chapter 121

The story of the assassin was introduced into Prince Liang's mansion, and after it got to the palace, Xiao Yi didn't see what to do about it. He only told Haosheng to serve Princess Eternal, and King Liang's arm was injured.

Xiao Liang understood from the very beginning that no matter who saw this matter, he would think that he did it, and he didn't want to make excuses. He just waited for his father to be summoned into the palace, and simply confessed his guilt, so as not to trace Pei Shang.

I didn't want to wait for a month, seeing that the end of the year was approaching, but there was no news.He simply didn't think about these things, but ordered Yunzhao's clothes that he salvaged earlier, and chose an excellent cemetery to make a clothes tomb.When he first salvaged these clothes, he was devastated and heartbroken. He waited for several days without any news, and then he accepted the fact that Yun Zhao was dead.

Ji Lan also persuaded: "Perhaps Yun Zhao is not dead. After all, no body has been found. I'm afraid that what Pei Shang said before jumping into the water has other meanings."

Xiao Liang just shook his head and said: "You don't need to comfort me anymore, even if Pei Shang did something wrong, if Yun Zhao is still alive, he will definitely try his best to send a letter to report his safety. Now that there is no news, it is obviously more ominous."

Because of this matter, Xiao Liang has been depressed, until the Spring Festival is approaching, there is no good news.Because Yin Zhonglin, the former Grand Tutor, was seriously ill, Jiannan King Xiao Zheng begged to come to Beijing to visit him, and he would arrive in Jiangling in a few days.

In detail, Xiao Liang hadn't seen Xiao Zheng for two years, thinking about the past, he couldn't help sighing.Especially when he knew about Concubine Lan Gui and Xiao Jie, and thinking about Xiao Zheng's reaction that day, I am afraid that the fourth brother is not ignorant.But he was really curious, how did the emperor find out about this matter, and why the fourth brother was able to find out the clues after staying in Ningxin Palace for one night.

But now that the third brother has become a man again, and Concubine Lan Gui has passed away, everything has been settled.Xiao Liang doesn't want to mention these things again, it's not easy to see Brother Xiao Zheng again this time.Thinking of this, Xiao Liang secretly decided that this year's Lantern Festival will take another trip to last year's old road, to see if he can meet Xiao Jie.

After Xiao Zheng returned to Beijing, he first visited Xiao Yi, and then went directly to the Yin Mansion to visit his grandfather.During this period, Xiao Liang also came many times to reminisce with his brother. When the two met, they felt that each other had changed a lot.

Xiao Liang, who used to have a childish face, now faintly has the demeanor of a prince.Xiao Zheng heard a lot along the way, and he knew that there are rumors in Beijing that King Liang was assassinated and couldn't lift his hands. His Majesty didn't blame him, it was obvious that he wanted King Qin to live in the East Palace.

He first bowed to Xiao Liang and said "Congratulations", but the latter was a little at a loss.This fourth brother used to have a straightforward temperament, and now he speaks even more quickly, but he is much more stable than before.

The two chatted for a long time, Xiao Zheng confessed to Xiao Liang and went to serve Yin Zhonglin.Xiao Liang came out of Yin's mansion, depressed all the way, and went straight to Ji's mansion.

Seeing him coming, Ji Lan was very surprised, and said: "Didn't you say that you want to avoid suspicion, don't be so ostentatious if you have nothing to do, why are you so unscrupulous today, just come to Ji's mansion?"

Xiao Liang glanced at him and said, "You dislike me? Then I'll go."

He turned his head and left, but was pulled back by Ji Lan.Ji Lan had no choice but to drag him into the room, and said: "I heard that you just went to visit King Jiannan in Yin's Mansion. You brothers have been away for a long time, and you should have a very happy conversation. Why do you seem to be quite unhappy?"

Xiao Liang smiled wryly and said: "Fourth brother is very polite. We used to be the fourth prince and the seventh prince. Now he is the king of Jiannan, but I am the future prince who keeps his heart open. He treats me similarly to those courtiers, clearly still the same as before. That kind of intimacy, but he refuses to go overboard in words. He is worried, afraid that if he says a wrong word, I will punish him in the future. But in my heart, he will always be my fourth brother."

Ji Lan persuaded: "Don't blame him. Up to now, many people say that King Zhao lost all his martial arts because you were too late to save him. You sent someone to do the assassination of King Liang. He came all the way to Beijing and decided to I have heard a lot, how can I not doubt it?"

Xiao Liang said: "I don't blame him, it's just that I feel uncomfortable. I didn't expect that now I am a talking emperor brother. No matter how many times I go to Zhao Wang's mansion, the second brother always looks so depressed, which is obvious. don't want to see me."

Ji Lan sighed, and didn't know how to comfort her, so she hugged him in her arms.Ever since Yun Zhao's clothes were salvaged, Xiao Liang had been reticent. It was rare for him to be overjoyed at the news of Xiao Zheng's return to Beijing, but it was like this.

Xiao Liang only stayed for a moment, then got up and left, he was always afraid of staying for a long time, causing people to talk too much.Now all the people in the city are staring at him, hoping to find some fault.

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was the day of the Spring Festival. Xiao Yi took the four princes to the Taimiao to worship their ancestors, and then returned to the palace for a feast.However, Xiao Yi's spirit was far worse than last year, he only drank a few cups before going back to the palace to rest, and the four sons also left.

Xiao Yunxiang's arm had been taken care of by many imperial physicians, but he did not want to invite imperial physician Jing.Xiao Liang sent someone to ask for a long time, but he didn't know how the injury was. If he wanted to ask again, he was afraid that Xiao Yunxiang would suspect that he had other intentions.

That day he was angry about Yun Zhao, but after thinking about it, he felt that because of Concubine Liu Chen, he couldn't blame Liang Wang for acting like he had to kill Yun Zhao.No matter what, Yun Zhao eventually became the knot between the two of them, hanging on each other's hearts, and they could no longer be as close as before.As for the arm matter, Xiao Liang can only take responsibility for Pei Shang.

In the twinkling of an eye, it was the seventh day of the first lunar month, but Yin Zhonglin couldn't make it through after all, and passed away in tears.Xiao Liang knew in his heart that what the Yin family and Xiao Zheng wanted most was to let the two young masters of Yin come back to die, so he asked Xiao Yi to pardon the Yin family.Xiao Yi readily agreed, but it was a pity that when the decree was passed to the border, he found out that the eldest son Yin Yuan had died of illness, leaving only one daughter behind.The second son, Yin Qifeng, rushed back to the funeral with his only son and Yin Yuan's daughter.

On the day of Lantern Festival, Xiao Liang wandered back and forth all night on the road he walked last year, but he still didn't see any trace.He almost suspected that his encounter with Xiao Jie last year was just an empty dream.At the fourth watch, he walked back to the house in disappointment, opened the door, and saw Ji Lan was waiting for him.

"Feng Mian, you didn't allow me to follow, but let me encounter a good thing, what do you think it is?" Ji Lan's tone was imperceptibly relaxed.

"You... where did you get it?" Xiao Liang was astonished, and saw a piece of cloth in Ji Lan's hand, with only the word Zhang written on it, wrapped in an auspicious cloud, and beside it was a folded paper dragonfly .

"It was sent to my house by a marching man. He left without leaving his name. But I really don't know what it means, but I vaguely feel that it has something to do with you."

"March? You go and check it, no, no, no, don't check it, I know." Xiao Liang flipped through the cloth strips, carefully holding the paper dragonfly in his hand, and looked at it repeatedly under the lamp. I was so happy, but in the end, I shed tears.

"What exactly is this? Why are you so happy? Was it sent by Yun Zhao?"

"Zhang is Yunzhao's real name. He drew clouds, which means a pun, to be free and easy. There are some bird feathers on this cloth, which can be seen as the feathers of snow crows. I guess he sent snow crows I came to deliver the letter, but something went wrong, so the letter didn’t reach me in time.”

"Then what is this paper dragonfly?"

"I was too weak to ride a horse when I was young, but I often pestered my third brother to play with him. He loved horse riding and archery, so he didn't want to take me with him, so he often folded dragonflies with his own hands to make me happy."

"You mean, it was sent by King Wei?"

"No one in the world can make Xueya obedient except for the third brother. I think the third brother met Xueya by chance and stayed to play. He must have something to delay and couldn't meet me, so he sent these two. Or, Yun Zhao and the third Brother has already met, but they don't know each other's identities, which should not be the case."

"The marching man is the clue, why don't you let me track it down."

"There's no need to investigate. If we pursue it, it would be bad if someone finds out where the third brother is staying. But Jiangling has always only had soldiers guarding the city, plus the patrol battalion and Habayashi guards. How can there be marchers?"

Ji Lan glanced at him, pondered for a moment, and said: "I remembered, every year during the Spring Festival, the Generalissimo would send people back to report to His Majesty about the military situation. There are about a hundred of them. Could it be that King Wei is among them now?"

Xiao Liang heard this, and said: "Whether the third brother is here or not, we don't need to investigate. Let this matter be like this, as long as I know they are safe."

He was tired for days, and now his tense nerves suddenly loosened up, his legs went limp, and he fell into Ji Lan's arms.

Ji Lan was taken aback, and quickly carried him to the bed, took off his boots and covered him with blankets, but he might as well be dragged into the bed curtain.Before he raised his head, there was heat in his ear, and he only heard Xiao Liang say: "Jing Bo, don't say Feng Mian's still young words today, otherwise..."

Before he could finish his words, they disappeared between the lips that came forward. The two people who had been tired for many days now had extraordinary strength and seemed extraordinarily enthusiastic.
