Houfu Key Class

"Ah——" The scream cut through the early morning.

The man who was still shouting just now had his whole body collided by the force of the arrow feathers, and was hit behind him heavily, causing countless dust to rise.

"Ma'am, be careful!"

In order to avoid the man, Xu Wan stepped back and fell to the ground. Cuizhi rushed to help her.

After hearing the screams, the two looked together.

In the distance, well-trained soldiers stood neatly, their heads held high, their majesty and bloodthirsty, and they looked like elite soldiers who had been on the battlefield for a long time.

"Ah...it hurts me to death. Who are you? I, Wu Kuo, am General Pang's favorite general. If you dare to destroy my hand, you are dead!" Wu Kuo howled in pain, and several others rushed forward.

Relying on their own martial arts skills, they just thought these were ordinary soldiers, and rushed forward with their heads down. The soldiers had stern expressions on their faces, and they were all very skilled. It was effortless to beat these people.

Xu Wan looked past the soldiers. She looked back. The morning mist had not completely dissipated. She could only vaguely see a man riding a tall horse. The bow and arrow in his hand had just been put down.

He was the one who just took action.

Who is that?

Facing the slightly dazzling morning light, she saw the man dismounting from his horse and walking towards her from the mist. The closer the distance was, the clearer his face could be seen.

The person who came was wearing black casual clothes. He was not wearing any armor or any fancy clothes, but it could be seen at a glance that he was the leader of these people. The man has sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, and a good-looking face. His personality looks dull and calm, but he also reveals a restrained arrogance.

Xu Wan looked at those calm eyes, and he just walked towards her. When he was in front of him, he extended his hand to her.

He wanted to pull her up.

Xu Wan's legs were a little weak due to this incident, and she subconsciously wanted to reach out her hand to stand up, but she stopped halfway.

If we put it in modern times, this would be an ordinary effort and harmless; but this is ancient times, she is already married, and her spine will be broken if she has physical contact with a foreign man.

She hesitated for a few seconds, then finally withdrew her hand and just nodded: "Thank you."

The man's dark eyes showed no fluctuation. He retracted his hand without any trouble, turned around and saw that the soldiers had captured those people, and turned sideways and said, "Go to the East Palace."

"Yes, General."

Looking at the backs of these people leaving and thinking of his words, Xu Wan woke up from a dream. She quickly turned to Cuizhi and said: "Yes, we are going to the East Palace too... Cuizhi, what's wrong with you?"

Cuizhi didn't speak just now. She was so shocked that she couldn't speak.

Now her eyes were filled with tears and excitement. She cried and laughed and said excitedly: "Madam, he, he... Little Marquis, he is the Little Marquis, the Little Marquis is back! He is still alive , he is alive! He is back well!"

Xu Wan turned around suddenly.

But Zong Zhao’s back was no longer visible.

She murmured: "Zong Zhao...that's Zong Zhao..."

Cuizhi nodded wildly and said aggrievedly: "The young marquis is finally back. The master and the old lady must be very happy."

In the ten years since the young Marquis disappeared, everyone thought he was dead, but no body was found. But now that Zong Zhao is back alive, their Hou Mansion will have something to rely on in the future!

Xu Wan was still confused, but she still tried to calm down and arranged: "Send a message to the Hou Mansion and tell the father-in-law and mother-in-law the news. Let's go to the East Palace as soon as possible to prevent Jin Cheng from having anything happen there."

"Yeah!" Cuizhi nodded fiercely.

After everything was arranged and the carriage started moving again, Xu Wan thought for a while and asked Cuizhi to get on the carriage. She had something to ask.

Cuizhi was just a maid, so naturally she didn't dare to ride with her mistress, but she couldn't help being so excited today, so she hesitated for a few moments and quickly got into the car.

Seeing her abnormality, Xu Wan couldn't help but ask: "You are so excited. Was Zong Zhao very good to you before?"

Cuizhi nodded sharply and then shook her head. She said: "The young prince doesn't talk to us very much, and he doesn't pay much attention to us. He has been very independent since he was a child. He studies literature and martial arts at the same time. Apart from that, Gu Nothing else matters. However, we all like the young master very much. Although he talks little, he is very stable and reliable. It seems that as long as he appears, there is nothing that cannot be solved. Oh, and the second young master, too. The second young master also admired him during his lifetime and listened to everything he said. "

When Cuizhi mentioned Zong Zhao, she talked more and talked endlessly. Xu Wan couldn't laugh or cry, but she could also feel that Zong Zhao made a good impression on people.

If it hadn't been for him just now, it would have been difficult for her to deal with those people.

"Donggong...he wants to see the prince no matter what. What happened..."

East Palace, the prince's bedroom.

The prince and Jin Cheng went to the study to talk, and the princess was waiting for him to come back in the bedroom, because she had known that this day would come. She had collapsed and despaired countless times, but now she was in a very calm mood.

"My Lady, when the servants were making the bed, they found two letters under your pillow. It seems that they were written by Your Highness."

The Crown Princess paused while putting on makeup and said softly: "Bring it here."

The two letters were a little wrinkled from being pressed under the pillow.

She opened the first letter and saw familiar handwriting.

"Qingrong, when you read this letter, I should have already left. It seems a bit impossible to say not to be sad, so... don't be too sad. I just went to another world. Thinking on the bright side, Maybe I can still see you and your daughter in the human world.

In the past few days, maybe the deadline is approaching, and I always think of many things in the past, the first time we met, and the way you broke into the East Palace to force me to marry you... Now think about it, you were at that time He is so courageous and determined without any hesitation.

However, I still let you down.

After holding on for so many years, my life was finally taken away by God. No matter how much I resisted, I could not break free. Later, I thought, maybe this is my fate.

Since marrying you, my life has been continuously extended. While I was pulled out of the abyss by you, I couldn't break away from the pull of the abyss. I could only return to the abyss step by step and slowly.

However, in the past few years, I have been very happy and satisfied with you around, just like an unexpected surprise, lighting up half of my life that should have been dark.

In the past twenty-five years, I have saved many people and I have wronged many people, but I think the people I feel most sorry for are you and your children. I often wonder, what will you do when I am gone? Later, I thought again, as long as Wei Guogong is here, he will definitely protect you.

So, Qingrong.

Stay away from all this fighting. This is the last thing I can do for you.

——Husband, Chu Heng, a masterpiece. "

The Crown Princess opened the second letter, and the words 'Heli Shu' came into her eyes, which broke her calm mood, and she burst into tears of collapse.

"Your Highness...how can you be so kind and cruel? I don't want to reconcile or leave. I will stay by your side until I die..."

But, letters don’t speak.

He won't comfort her or persuade her.

The Crown Princess's eyes were dim with tears, but her eyes were still focused on the bottle of poison on the dressing table. She had ordered her daughter to be sent back to the Duke's Mansion. As long as there was news from the palace that His Highness was gone, she would go with her.

She is not a competent mother, she just wants to be with His Highness. Otherwise, His Highness will definitely be lonely alone. His Highness likes fun the most.

"Your Majesty!" The palace maid's urgent voice came from outside.

Tears fell from the Crown Princess's eyes, and she was so heartbroken that she couldn't help it. She stretched out her hand to unscrew the cork and waited for the second half of the maid's words.

Who knows, the next moment.

The palace maid said excitedly: "Zong Zhao, the young prince of Yuanyanghou Mansion, asked to see you and said he had a good medicine to save your highness!"
