imprinted you in my heart

In order not to reveal their whereabouts, the three of Shi Min left the palace in an ordinary carriage, and the imperial guards disguised themselves as grooms to drive the carriage. She and Zuo Xuan sat in the car, looking at each other silently and very quietly. unimpeded.

Fortunately, she occasionally had the gift to let Lu Guanchu arrange a carriage to take Zuo Xuan out of the palace and back home. Although it was mostly late at night, it was not absent during the day, and it was not awkward. Moreover, she walked through the palace gate that Zuo Xuan used to walk, and there were not many guards. think.

As the wedding was approaching, Shi Min didn't want others to know about Bu Qianxue's sudden strangeness, so not only did he issue a gag order, but the Tai Hospital also secretly sent Lu Jianyi to go for diagnosis and treatment.

The carriage didn't go to the nearest Taisi Gate, so it took a detour and took some more time. When it was about to arrive at Buhou's Mansion, the sky that had been overcast for a long time was completely covered by dark clouds, and there were two thunderclaps. , but there is no rain falling, as if the night is about to fall, and the sight is blocked, but in fact there is at least an hour before the darkness.

Although the Bu Mansion has been promoted to the Marquis Mansion, it was just an ordinary gentry family before, and it was a family property accumulated over several generations of talents, so it was not built in the inner circle where the land price was extremely high and the noble gentry gathered.

The imperial palace in the inner city is divided into the outer court and the harem. If the huge outer city is divided by the four directions of east, west, north and south, it is too general to be accurately searched. It is divided into the inner circle and the outer circle. Although it has never been officially recognized, it has been called this way from generation to generation, and everyone is used to it, so it is still called this in private.

The inner circle is the two square circles close to the imperial palace, and it is also the gathering place for honorable and high-ranking officials. The closer you are to the imperial palace, the higher the house price, and it is the kind that even if you have money, you may not be able to buy it, because the real estate will be destroyed after the official is convicted and his home is ransacked. It fell into the hands of the royal family, and the circle closest to the palace is not for sale. If you want to live in it, you really can't get it with money.

All kinds of kings moved by Shi Min from various places now live in the inner circle, and the hereditary kings are basically close to the palace.

Due to her ancestors' savings and Shi Min's own copying, even after the settlement of the great kings and the rewards of many great heroes, she still has several sets of mansions in the inner circle and some in the outer circle. Changing to a large inner circle mansion, but the Bu family's affection does not want to move. After all, the Bu mansion was accumulated by their ancestors for several generations, and they have already had feelings for every plant and tree in the mansion.

Street stalls and shop openings are strictly prohibited in the inner circle of the outer city, so not only are there few people coming and going, but their identities are relatively clear. Whether they are servants or masters, or they are delivering goods, their identities can be roughly distinguished from their clothes.

The outer circle of the outer city is different. Not only the East Market and West Market are here, but also small vendors can set up stalls on the main and secondary arterial streets, or walk along the streets. Even the houses facing the street can also open shops and do business. People are mixed, there are all classes, and there are foreign people, and the people who come and go are even more complicated. It is impossible to tell who is who just by looking at their clothes.

Although Buhou Mansion is in the outer circle, it is considered to be in the inner circle of the outer circle, not far from the inner circle of the Gongyuan, etc. Therefore, although there are more people coming and going on the streets in front of the gate than in the inner circle on weekdays, it is also much less than the outer circle where the business is prosperous. Some.

Unfortunately, this year happens to be the year of the National Examination, and the neighborhood is not only close to the Gongyuan, but also has a good environment, which is quite popular with people, so whenever the National Examination Year, there will be people here to open an inn and take the opportunity to make a fortune. This year, two new ones were opened. Home.

There are also some families who have lost their livelihood and want to earn some daily necessities, rice, oil, salt and money. They will also rent out the extra rooms in their homes. As a result, there are many more people on the street in the past half month than before. One of the newly opened inns just opened Opposite the government.

The main road in Fandu City is one meter wider than the provincial road, about nine meters, and the secondary road is also one meter wider than the county road, about five meters. Even ordinary small streets and alleys can pass an ordinary carriage, and the narrowest The only way to surpass others.

An ordinary carriage stopped not far from the lion statue in front of Bufu Gate. There were very few people passing by on the sub-arterial road. People, some came in early to hide in fear of sudden rain, and some lived in the inn to see when it would rain, and gathered in twos and threes to whisper.

There is only one person who stands out from the crowd, neither talking to the people next to him nor looking around, his face is ugly, he is dressed in spring and autumn, he is not too hot, he is looking at the opposite side intently, like a hunting beast, his whole body emits air-conditioning, which makes people uncomfortable Dare to approach, until he saw a carriage stopped opposite, his eyes changed slightly.

The other people naturally saw the carriage on the opposite side, and the topic changed in an instant. They were all discussing who the person would be, just like the person who entered in front, although they didn't know him and couldn't guess the identity of the other person, it didn't hinder them. It's fun to guess, after all, the future queen lives across the street.

Among them, the few Juren are even more thinking that if they have shit luck this year and pass the Jinshi exam, they will not only meet the current emperor, but if they are lucky, they will also meet the queen who lives opposite. Small character, remember now is to lay the foundation for the future, although affected by the weather can not be seen clearly, but you can also see the general appearance.

The deputy chief guard who was temporarily ordered to stand guard at the gate was pacing back and forth in front of the gate boredly. The other six gate guards lined up on both sides, keeping their hands on the handles of their knives. Seeing the carriage stop, the guard standing under the steps closest to the carriage stepped forward as usual. He was about to ask, but when he saw the face of the first person who came down, he stopped talking, turned his head and glanced at the deputy head of the guard, then turned around and took the initiative to lead the horse

After getting the hint, the deputy head of the guard hurriedly signaled to send someone in to report, while hurriedly walking down, the other guard standing opposite to the guard who led the horse naturally straightened his hat with his hands, and his head moved undetectably .

After Jiang Li received Shi Min's password-locking order, she gathered all the people who knew the inside story in the south room. They have to report to the inside as soon as possible, so they naturally dare not delay.

Under the attention of everyone outside the door of the new inn, a man wearing a black narrow-sleeved right lapel and a white knot-style Futou warrior costume came down, and glanced around vigilantly. unremarkable.

The deputy head of the guard also walked to the front of the carriage, and made a clasping salute to Zuo Xuan, but Zuo Xuan had no time to control him. After confirming that there was nothing abnormal around him, he bowed to the inside of the carriage and reported: "Please get off the carriage, young master." The deputy head guard stood While busy saluting.

Hearing this, Shi Min got up and walked out of the carriage. Everyone saw a girl in ordinary satin blue right lapel, wide sleeves, a small silver-white crown, and a folding fan in her hand. hands, and got out of the carriage on his own, leaving only a straight back for them.

Zuo Xuan silently put away the hand that hadn't been fully stretched out, secretly annoyed himself and forgot that His Majesty didn't like it when he was out.

The weather was sweltering, and Shi Min was anxious. In addition, the clothes he changed into were far less breathable than the fine silk and satin he usually wears. He also wore round-toed moiré flat shoes on his feet. She was sweating a little from the heat, but luckily she wiped it off with a handkerchief before getting out of the carriage, which made her feel much refreshed.

When Shi Min got out of the carriage, the other guards immediately bowed as Lord Zuo and the deputy head of the guard did. The people watching from the opposite side knew that the girl was a nobleman after seeing their salute, so they couldn't help but look more carefully. And the person pretending to be humble also stood at the position facing the gate of Buhou's Mansion, and the person who had walked past Buhou's Mansion while strolling in the courtyard also turned around and turned back.

The sky was covered with dark clouds, and a flash of lightning divided the sky into several irregular shapes. At this time, few people cared about it in the streets outside Buhou's Mansion.

Shi Min got out of the car and strode towards the Bu Mansion, not wanting to delay any longer, the disguised Zuo Xuan and another internal guard immediately followed one after another, with a clear distinction of rank and rank, as for the carriage, its own guards would handle it.

As soon as Shi Min passed by, the saluting people would return to normal. Just when she was about to step on the last step, there was a loud thunder, which made people tremble with fear.

Only Shi Min, who knew that there would be thunder after lightning, and the vigilant Zuo Xuan, and the other two did not. The highly vigilant left-handed exploded with unprecedented potential and character, and only used his body to block the back one.

However, Shi Min's skills and vigilance are far from being left-handed. When he stepped on the last step, his right back hurt, and his body was instantly pushed forward by inertia. He staggered and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, his balance was good. Really fall.

Seeing that the target was hit by the arrow, the two people who shot in the dark turned around and fled immediately, and they ran east and west according to the agreement they had negotiated earlier.

Zuo Xuan, who jumped up to block the arrow, fell down on the stairs. The thunder finally dissipated. The person who was so frightened that his hands were shaking and his eyes closed saw that one of the three people who were going to enter the mansion had already fallen. The girl seemed to be injured, and the one who was intact People have run to the right to catch people.

The reaction of the deputy head of the guard was more than 01:30 slower than that of Zuo Xuan and the other inner guard. When he came to his senses, it was the same as what ordinary people saw. Turning around and shouting: "Whoever catches the murderer will be rewarded, life or death!".

"Yes" the deputy head of the guard was full of confidence and felt that he finally showed his face for a while, sent one person to call for reinforcements, and left two guards to guard Shi Min, and then took the rest of the guards to arrest people.

The fall of Zuo Xuan was not light, and it took a while before he finally stood up. He didn't even bother to draw the arrow, so he hurried to Shi Min's side, drew his sword to protect him, and wanted to protect Shi Min into the house for safety, Shi Min But he didn't move and asked her how her injury was, Zuo Xuan felt that the back that was shot by the arrow didn't seem to hurt, and remembered that she was wearing soft armor today.

Even saying that she was fine, she pulled out the arrow on her back with her backhand, and her clothes were scratched by the barbs. Fortunately, she used all her strength, otherwise such a lethal arrow with barbs and blood grooves might not be able to be pulled out. .

Shi Min saw that the arrow was black and bloodless, and after confirming that the left rotation was all right, her frown not only did not loosen, but became serious. Since the stabbing pain of the arrow, her entire back began to hurt, and it became more and more painful from point to point. The kind of pain that hurts, I have never experienced such pain in my previous and present lives, and I can only support it with one breath.

The guards who went to ask for support finally came with a team of guards and stretchers, and the guards who went to report also brought Bu Lang to greet them. The canthus was completely cracked, she never thought that things would turn out like this, her hands and feet felt weak all of a sudden, but she had to pretend to be calm while pleading guilty and stepped forward to help.

The guard who had just reported back had no choice but to turn around and run into the mansion again, his mouth was parched but he ran faster than the previous trip.

When Bu Lang was about to step forward to help, Shi Min didn't stop her. At this time, in her heart, only the people from the Bu family and the people she brought were the most trustworthy, so she only let them help. It didn't decrease at all, and the vision gradually blurred.

Shi Min had to hold on to the last bit of consciousness to hold the hands of the two of them tightly and said: "If there is any eventuality, the grandson of Prince Li will be the heir, respect me as mother, and the Queen Mother, Qianxue and Prince Li will be assistant ministers."

"Your Majesty, with the blessing of heaven, will surely turn the crisis into safety." Zuo Xuan cried and persuaded, while hastily getting someone to carry the stretcher up.

Bu Lang also cried a few words of persuasion, she really didn't expect things to turn out like this, not to mention Shi Min would not forget to think for Bu Qianxue and pave the way for Bu Qianxue, which made her feel guilty and sad at the same time For example.

"Remember...?" Shi Min ignored their reassurance, just stared at her and asked again, "Remember, I must obey His Majesty's will," Zuo Xuan quickly promised, and kept supporting her. Shi Min was put on the stretcher, and Bu Lang was on the side to help.

"Okay, we must... must... catch..." Shi Min said with difficulty, his consciousness was completely plunged into darkness, and the rain that had not fallen for a long time poured down from the sky in an instant.

The place where the arrow was shot by Shi Yan was on the upper right back, and it was inconvenient to lie flat, so he had to lie on his stomach. Suddenly, it rained heavily, and the treatment could not be delayed. Turning left, he could only block all the things and clothes that could keep out the rain. On top of Shi Min, he ran into the mansion with the stretcher. ?
