Song Emperor Jiangshan

Chapter 52 Wedding Night

Seeing that Zhao Gou was worried about his own safety from the bottom of his heart, Zhao Yuan was moved and said, "Father, I'm fine!"

Zhao Gou took Zhao Yuan's hand, looked up and down, and saw that Zhao Yuan had no injuries other than his arm, so he felt relieved and said, "It's a blessing among misfortunes! The traitor is Who? Tell me, and I will cut Ling Chi at the waist!"

Zhao Yuan was about to speak when suddenly a man in a red official robe walked out from behind Zhao Gou. The man's face was pale and his eyes were long and narrow. , there must be someone behind the scenes! Your Majesty must not let the murderer go, and if caught, he must be severely punished! Is there any survivor among the assassins?"

Seeing Qin Hui, Zhao Yuan felt more hatred in his heart, snorted coldly, and said: "Young Supervisor Qin is so brave, how can he keep alive?"

Just as Qin Hui let go of his heart, Qin Yu asked from the side: "The one who was left to Qin Shan to look after just now is dead?"

Qin Hui immediately lifted his heart, and smiled at Zhao Yuan: "The dog is also worried about His Highness's safety, but fortunately there are still alive, we must strictly torture him!"

Zhao Yuan looked at Qin Hui coldly, and said, "Of course we have to torture him severely!"

Qin Hui saw that Zhao Yuan's expression was not good, so he couldn't talk anymore, so he said to Zhao Gou: "This time, thanks to the help of someone, His Highness was able to turn the danger into safety. Why don't His Majesty reward them a lot!"

Zhao Gou said: "That's right! Yuan Yuan, who saved you?"

It was difficult for Zhao Yuan to answer for a while, but he had to answer. Everyone saw this matter with their eyes open, and some things could not be concealed, so he told the matter from beginning to end, saying: "If Qin Shan hadn't arrived in time, my son Already dead!"

Qin Hui looked at Xiao Shan, and said with a half-hearted smile, "Shan'er, you did a good job this time, I am very pleased for my father."

Xiao Shan knew that he had been exposed at this moment, and it would be useless to say more, so he said, "It's all taught by my foster father!"

The corners of Qin Hui's mouth twitched several times, and Zhao Yuan pointed at those people brought by Qin Xi, and said, "It's also thanks to Qin Shaojian who brought the soldiers and horses in the city to rescue them!"

Zhao Gou didn't think about it because he was worried about Zhao Yuan's safety, but now that he saw him, he couldn't help but frowned slightly: "When did the imperial army move in the city?"

Qin Hui hurriedly said: "Because of the emergency, there is no time to inform His Majesty first, so I let the dog go first. Fortunately, I came in time. Otherwise, if you are a moment late and your Highness is in danger, wouldn't you be a sinner through the ages?"

Zhao Gou was displeased, but he didn't say anything more, he just said: "The soldiers who came to rescue this time will all be rewarded!"

All the soldiers shouted together, Zhao Gou said: "It is urgent to find out the mastermind behind the assassin! This matter will be handed over to..."

He looked around and considered the candidates in his mind, Zhao Yuan stepped forward and said: "Father, I want to torture myself!"

Just as Zhao Gou was about to nod his head, Qin Hui said, "Your Highness is going to get married tomorrow. I'm afraid that if you do this kind of rough work, the wedding will be bumped! It's better to let Dali Temple investigate and deal with it!"

Zhao Gou also felt that it would not be very good to hand over to Zhao Yuan, who is about to be the bridegroom's official, but he didn't really want to throw it in Dali Temple. Shenwu, why don't you bring back the survivors and interrogate yourself?"

Zhao Gou felt that Xiao Shan's suggestion was very good, so he nodded and said, "It's exactly what I want, so let's do it this way! Yuan Yuan, you can rest assured and prepare for tomorrow's big wedding!"

Seeing that Zhao Gou had made up his mind, Zhao Yuan didn't insist anymore. After he thanked him, he was escorted by the crowd and walked slowly down the mountain.

Zhao Gou was by Zhao Yuan's side, and the two father and son talked about the big wedding, while Qin Hui and Qin Xi went together. After asking about the matter in detail, they said with absolute certainty: "Needless to say, Xiao Shan must have been deceiving me! It seems that he said earlier that You can't believe a word of it!"

Qin Xi shared his father's worries: "Father, Xiaoshan is nothing. Of course, the king of Pu'an County is not easy to take the lead. Qin Shan is your adopted son. Just call him here and you will be able to solve it!"

Qin Hui nodded and said, "That's right! I just saw Han Shizhong here, why did he come here?"

Qin Yu said: "He and Pu'an County King didn't go all the way, it's probably a coincidence. He didn't say a word just now, he must have been afraid of father's tricks, so he didn't dare to say more!"

Qin Hui smiled slightly: "He has long since lost his Sacred Heart. Just now, the officials clearly saw him, but they didn't seem to see him at all. They didn't even say hello to him! Nothing to worry about!"

Speaking of this, Qin Xi suddenly interjected: "Father, it's not very convenient for that man to live in the palace!"

Qin Hui smiled: "Why do you need to do it? One of the rescuers is my adopted son, and the other is you. The officials will not listen to the one-sided words of an assassin! After King Pu'an's wedding, there will be three days, which is enough We have done everything! If the assassin is savvy and tight-lipped, I will take care of his family. If he talks nonsense, your father and I can kill two birds with one stone, just kill our relatives, and kill that traitor Qin Shan!"

The two fathers and sons discussed in low voices, and they also went down the mountain. Xiao Shan walked last. He wanted to have a few more words with Han Shizhong, but when he turned his head, he saw Han Shizhong's figure alone, disappearing into the depths of the forest, never to be seen again. .

When Yu Mo saw that the people around him were not paying attention to him, he quietly walked to the end of the line, and said in a low voice, "This assassination must be the Qin thief's intention! I was stopped by him when I entered the palace, and I couldn't face the saint at all." , if I hadn’t yelled in front of the hall, the officials still wouldn’t know about it!”

Xiao Shan snorted: "Qin Hui wouldn't do such a thankless thing, it must be Qin Xi, he was busy trying to silence the moment he came, I really don't feel sorry for my own people!"

Yu Mo talked with Xiao Shan for a while, and said: "You have to be careful, I think Qin Hui has already set his sights on you!"

Xiao Shan nodded silently, he was easy to talk about, and it was convenient to hide alone, but his adoptive parents should find a way to send them away as soon as possible, so as not to be caught by Qin Hui!

He was not very noticeable at the end of the team. When the mighty team entered Qingbo Gate and passed by the back wall of his house, Xiao Shan used his fastest speed to hit the wall with a dagger at the place agreed with his adoptive parents. He drew a secret sign, so that as soon as Wang Meiniang saw it, she knew it meant to leave Lin'an City immediately.

Xiao Shan's movements were extremely fast, and he was at the end of the team again, because this time there were tens of thousands of people coming out, and there were so many soldiers, no one noticed.After Xiao Shan walked for a while, he saw Zhao Gou leading people back to the palace. The soldiers and horses in the city returned to their respective camps. As soon as the people dispersed and Zhao Gou left, Zhao Yuan immediately started looking for Xiao Shan. When Xiaoshan walked alone at the end, he hurriedly caught up with him and pulled him back. The guards entered the palace together.

After entering the mansion, there was another mess, and it took a long time to arrange the wounded. Because the mansion in the mansion suddenly decreased a lot, Zhao Gou allocated a team of his guards in front of the palace to Zhao Yuan, and arranged for these people, and informed These people will spend a lot of effort on the guard of honor tomorrow, and it will be dark by the time all the tossing is over.

Xiao Shan was lying on the bed. He was very worried about his adoptive parents at the moment. He didn't know if they had left, but he didn't dare to go out to see. He was worried that Wang Meiniang forgot to go out today to check the password, and at the same time he was worried that the password would be discovered. He couldn't stand it in the middle of the night, and wanted to sneak away, but unexpectedly, because of the big wedding tomorrow morning, the palace was also brightly lit in the middle of the night, and there were so many people, it was inconvenient for him to go out by himself.

I had no choice but to ask Yu Mo to go and take a look for myself, and Yu Mo came back not long after he left: "I saw the response code, Father Qin should already know it, he probably has already left the city by now, you don't have to worry too much! "

Only then did Xiao Shan feel relieved, when dawn came, there was a mighty procession, a car covered with gold and silver, four people holding fans, eight boys with high buns and hairpins on horseback, ready to welcome the princess into the mansion.The palace sent envoys to the gate in official uniforms, and Zhao Yuan came out in happy attire. After paying his respects to the north, he led the envoys in and let them rest for a while to read the concubine Feng's book.

Zhao Yuan himself sat in the side room on the side of the lobby according to the etiquette, waiting for a while to pray to heaven and earth.

Because there were very few guards around Zhao Yuan, Xiao Shan, who was not very willing to participate in Zhao Yuan's wedding, was also forced to accompany Zhao Yuan at this moment.The two had their own concerns and didn't talk much, it was lively outside but the room was quiet.

After a while, I heard the sound of drums and music outside, and it was the princess who was about to arrive.

Xiao Shan turned his head to look at Zhao Yuan, only to see that Zhao Yuan was wearing the court clothes of a county king and the crown of heaven on his head, and the ears on the crown were hanging down, swaying slightly beside Zhao Yuan's ears.His face didn't have the slightest hint of festive look of a big wedding, but his brows were slightly frowned, and his eyes were a little dark. It seemed that he had suffered an accident yesterday and didn't sleep well.

Xiao Shan could hear the noise of children outside, and knew that it was the woman who had arrived at the gate, someone was throwing grains and colorful fruits by the gate, and the sound of children scrambling for it.Because preparing for Zhao Yuan's big wedding these days, Xiao Shan is also quite familiar with the etiquette of the big wedding. After the grain and beans are scattered, the bride will get out of the car, and several singing girls will hold lotus torches and flowers to lead the bride to the middle gate. A side room to rest.

After a short rest, Zhao Yuan and the concubine will be led out by everyone, worship heaven and earth, and officially get married.

Seeing Zhao Yuan's absent-minded look, Xiao Shan said in a low voice: "Your Highness, don't act like this, it won't be good for the princess to see you later!"

Zhao Yuan forced a smile, but then sighed: "At a time like this, how can you be in the mood to get married? I don't know what happened to that living person, I always feel my eyelids twitch and my heart is uneasy."

Before Xiao Shan could speak, he saw a eunuch Gan Min running in with small steps, and saluted Zhao Yuan: "Your Highness, it's time to go out!"

Zhao Yuan nodded, stood up and went out with the eunuch, Xiao Shan was about to go out with him, but was stopped by the eunuch: "Master Qin, this is the groom's official leaving, you go this way!"

Xiao Shan couldn't be bothered to go out, anyway, it was very lively outside, and he didn't lack himself. He sat in the place where Zhao Yuan sat just now, and he could only hear the constant joy outside, and another envoy read loudly the concubine Feng's book, and the guests congratulated him The voice is also endless.

Xiao Shan sat for a while, and always felt that it was not good for him to stay here alone like this. He was also worried about whether his adoptive parents had left safely, and he kept thinking about Wu Hao. Sitting alone at this moment, he felt a little unspeakable. Feeling lonely, he walked out of the room and went outside the hall.

However, the emperor Zhao Gou did not come, but Concubine Wu Gui was there as Zhao Yuan's successor adoptive mother. Amidst the clamor of the crowd, he was sent to the bridal chamber of the dormitory.

Xiao Shan saw the shadow of Zhao Yuan with his back turned to him, helping the bride into the bridal chamber, he felt dull, at this time it was already dark, and the banquets in the palace were still going on, officials from all over came to congratulate, Qin Hui also came, But he just sat for a while and left, only Qin Xi remained.

When Xiao Shan saw Qin Xi, he became even more worried about his adoptive parents. Now Zhao Yuan is in the bridal chamber, and he has nothing to do with him. On the night of the wedding, people come and go in the palace, and the guards are all strangers, so it is very convenient to sneak out .Xiao Shan couldn't bear it any longer, walked out of the palace, and walked towards his own home.

Zhao Yuan helped the princess into the bedroom, the two met for the first time, and were somewhat speechless.Sitting on the big dragon and phoenix bed at this moment, there are singers singing and chorus outside, and the red candles in the hall are crackling.Zhao Yuan had something on his mind, although he knew he had to say something to break the silence, but he couldn't say anything.

It was Guo who spoke first, she was the daughter of a boudoir, she didn't know what happened outside, seeing Zhao Yuan's appearance at this moment, she only thought that he was shy, so she spoke first: "I have heard that His Highness is a good-looking person, today When I saw it, I knew that the slave family was really lucky."

Zhao Yuan forced a smile. Although he was not in the mood for a bridal chamber, he could not neglect the bride on the wedding night, so he forcibly suppressed the troubles in his heart, picked up the wine glass, handed it to the princess, and drank it himself: "The princess is beautiful, yes My luck is right."

Mrs. Guo drank the wine, but they all said that they would have a cup of wine on the wedding night, but she didn't know why her husband only drank his own and didn't come to have a cup with him.

Guo Shi had doubts in his heart, but he didn't want to ask too many questions. Although Zhao Yuan had rehearsed how to drink this cup of wine countless times before, but when things came to an end, all things disturbed his mind, but he forgot about it.

He didn't notice anything wrong yet, he just got up and blew out the red candle, and went back to bed: "Rest!"

Guo Shi was lying on the bed, her heart was pounding, waiting for Zhao Yuan to come and unbutton her clothes, but she couldn't wait for a long time, so she couldn't help but asked in a low voice: "Your Highness, have you... slept? "

Zhao Yuan felt that his condition was really bad today. He didn't feel anything at all during the night of the bridal chamber. All the things in his head were Wu Hao's death. The guards were silenced. Xiao Shan might have been exposed. When will the thief Qin attack Xiao Shan? .Hearing Guo's question at this moment, he came back to his senses and realized that he could not treat his newlywed wife so perfunctorily, so he reached out to untie her clothes.

When Wen Xiangruanyu was pregnant, Zhao Yuan finally regained his composure and performed the ceremony of husband and wife, but in the end it was too far from what he had imagined, and it was just a hasty affair.

Originally, Zhao Yuan still had a bit of expectation for the bridal chamber on the wedding night, but unexpectedly, he was made to feel like chewing wax, and he was a little disappointed. signs of development.Guo Shi was very considerate, lying in Zhao Yuan's arms and asked: "Your Highness seems to have something on your mind?"

Zhao Yuan felt very guilty towards his wife, but it was also inconvenient to discuss the court affairs with the concubine on the wedding night, and it was even more difficult to tell him the changes he had experienced in the past two days, so he shook his head: "No, I'm just a little tired, It will be fine in the future."

Before the words were finished, he suddenly heard the sound of arguing outside the door, Zhao Yuan got up immediately and asked, "Who is arguing outside?"

Guo Shi said from behind: "Perhaps the servants are bickering, today is a good day, Your Highness, don't get angry about irrelevant things."

Zhao Yuan felt that his eyelids were twitching even more, and his heart was filled with uneasiness. Regardless of Guo Shi's dissuasion, he put on his clothes and walked forward, opened the door, and asked, "What's the noise outside?" ?”

There was a person outside the door, looking like a traveler, about 40 years old, when he saw Zhao Yuan, he called: "Yangyang, is that you?"

When Zhao Yuan was born, his mother dreamed of a white sheep in her arms, so the first name he was born with was "Sheep".

The nickname Yangyang was only used by my family when I was in my hometown in Xiuzhou more than ten years ago, and there were not many taboos at that time. Now, when Zhao Yuan heard someone calling his old nickname, he turned towards that When people looked carefully, they recognized at a glance that the servant in his 40s was the servant who had been with his biological father Zhao Ziran all the year round. !

Mrs. Guo also got up at this moment, went out to look, but saw the man holding Zhao Yuan and rolling down tears: "Master, Master is gone!"

Zhao Yuan didn't react for a while: "What did you say?"

The servant took out the letter in his arms: "This is written by Madam to the officer...to His Highness, you can tell it at a glance!"

Zhao Yuan's hands trembled slightly, and when he opened the letter, it was indeed his biological mother's handwriting. It turned out that his biological father, Zhao Ziran, had died of illness three months ago!It was not until today that the news reached the capital!

Zhao Yuan read the letter over and over again, completely unexpected that the news of his biological father's death came on the wedding night.After receiving this news, he no longer had the slightest intention to continue the bridal chamber.

Then he said naturally: "Go and call Qin Shan and let him accompany me into the palace!"

As he said, he was about to change his clothes, the eunuch at the side hurried in to serve him, and another young eunuch rushed to the front yard to call Xiao Shan, Zhao Yuan only put on his clothes, and before he put on his boots, he heard the little eunuch's return: " Mr. Qin has gone somewhere, he is not at the residence! It seems that no one saw him again when His Highness got married and paid homage."

"What?!" Zhao Yuan felt as if his heart had been hammered hard by something suddenly, and he felt extremely flustered for a while.

During the past two days, he received news of the death of his confidants and relatives one after another, and seeing Xiao Shan disappearing now, he was even more frightened, fearing that there would be another accident in Xiao Shan, and he didn't even bother to say a word to the bride, so he went He stepped on his shoes and ran out of the bedroom.
