Qingyun survived the torture of the cold poison, and Cai Wanting's appearance soon returned to her original state. Qingyun chose a suitable opportunity to tell her the reason for the incident. As Qingyun hoped, she accepted the apology from the Marquis and his daughter and Forgave them.
Cai Wanting is not without any resentment in her heart, but she has recovered her appearance, and the perpetrator has been brought to justice. The most important thing is that if it were not for the Ninth Princess, she would have died long ago. Since the Ninth Princess is willing to be cheerful, the Protector of the Kingdom is also the imperial court Dongliang, she is about to become the daughter-in-law of the royal family, so she will not cause too many troubles.
During this period, Mrs. Lin secretly built an unnamed tomb for Lin Yuemei by the pond where she was sunk. The Lin family never mentioned Lin Yuemei. The Prime Minister still took leave to recuperate and thanked guests behind closed doors. The Prime Minister's words and deeds were much lower-key.
The imperial concubine still closed her door and thought about her past, and did not make any trouble again.
Tong Xiangxiu, who exposed Lin Yuemei's scandal, suddenly fell seriously ill and died within a few days on his way back to Dongping County with his father.
There was no trace of the masked man in black and Juechen Palace.
Everything seemed so calm, so calm that Qingyun felt a heavy and solemn feeling that a storm was about to come.
In the blink of an eye, it was late at night the day before the wedding of the two couples. Qingyun had just finished reviewing the memorial and was about to go to bed. Two masked men in black suddenly broke into the inner hall silently, aiming directly at Qingyun.
Long Ying, Wu Ying and four other secret guards who were hiding in the dark appeared immediately. Wu Ying protected in front of Qingyun and Zike, while Long Ying and the four secret guards fought with the two men in black.
Seeing that the rest of the secret guards did not come to support, Wuying felt that the situation was not good, so she whispered to Qingyun to leave quickly.
Unexpectedly, Qingyun not only did not leave, but instead sat on a chair nearby, ordered Zike to brew some tea and took a sip, watching with interest the man in black who moved like a ghost and moved like a sharp sword. , appreciation and satisfaction gradually appeared in his eyes.
In less than a cup of tea, Long Ying and the man in black had exchanged no less than fifty moves. The speed was so fast that it was shocking. In the end, the man in black narrowly defeated Long Ying with one move that knocked the fire out of the cauldron.
Another man in black has also subdued the four secret guards.
Taking back the dagger lying across Long Ying's neck, the two men in black pulled off their veils, walked to Qingyun, knelt down and saluted: "Lan Jue (Zhuyue) pays homage to the princess, Princess Jin'an!"
Behind the two men knelt fifty secret guards with restrained and calm expressions, and then came the Luoxia Palace secret guards who looked disheveled and frightened.
Longying and Wuying were shocked.
Unexpectedly, in less than three months, Lan Jue's skills, which had no foundation in martial arts, would become so unpredictable. You know, Long Ying's martial arts is the best among the secret guards, even in today's martial arts world, it is one of the best. Yes, and it is even more unbelievable that those fifty secret guards could quietly and easily subdue the Luoxia Palace secret guards who were twice as many as them.
Zike looked surprised and expectant.
"Everyone, get up." Qingyun put down the tea cup in her hand and said happily: "You have worked hard, I am very satisfied."
"Thank you, Princess (Master)!" Although everyone tried their best to appear calm, their eyes still showed excitement.
He ordered Long Ying to arrange for the secret guards to rest. Looking at Lan Jue and Zhu Yue, who were completely different from before, exuding restrained energy from the inside out, Qing Yun asked, "How did you come back?"
"Back to the princess, Miss Qiao learned that the princess was going to Xueyun Peak, so she asked me to come back to protect the princess." Today's Lan Jue is less impetuous and more calm and steady like a sword dormant in its sword case.
"After all, Bingying still understands me." She had mentioned the trip to Xueyun Peak to Bingying before, but she didn't expect that she would arrange for everyone to come back in time. With these people protecting her father and Uncle Leng, she felt relieved: "You guys Go down and rest first.”
"Yes, Lan Jue (Zhuyue) is resigning!"
"Zike, I have already discussed it with Bingying. After the third brother and sixth brother get married, you and the other two hundred secret guards can go too."
Zike shook her head: "No, Zike wants to go to Xueyun Peak with the princess."
"As long as I have Green Amber by my side, the most important thing for you right now is to concentrate on your training." Seeing that Zike still insisted on accompanying her, Qingyun understood that she was worried about her own safety: "You are the only one who has learned all kinds of extraordinary things. Skills can better protect me, do you understand?"
Zike thought for a while and nodded heavily: "Zike will definitely live up to the princess's expectations!"
The next day, the blue sky was full of blue waves, white clouds were drifting like gauze, and the warm sunshine shone on the earth, making people feel particularly comfortable.
Standing quietly at the gate of Prince Rui's Mansion, looking at the guests who were arriving one after another, Qingyun felt apologetic and relieved at the same time that his handsome face relaxed slightly from the cold and hard lines. Although he did not smile, he was not so respectable as the third brother. , at least the third brother does not reject this marriage, and she also believes that given time, the third brother will fall in love with the gentle and virtuous Sanhuang's sister-in-law, and they will grow old together and live happily for a lifetime.
The third brother and the fifth brother were getting married at the same time, so she and her father agreed to host one of them.
In the blink of an eye, looking at Zhang Lianwu who was smiling and chatting softly with several ladies in the courtyard, Qingyun frowned slightly, and her eyes were as deep as the sea.
There is no sign of her admiration for the third brother in her words and deeds. Could she be the masked man in black with a faint scent of plum blossoms?
Emperor Father said that the grudges between the royal family and Juechen Palace are only known to the emperors of the past dynasties and the master of Juechen Palace. Did the masked man in black act on his own initiative? Or was he ordered by the master of Juechen Palace? The purpose was really revenge. Royal, overthrow the imperial court?
The Juechen Palace is powerful and secretive. If it cannot resolve the centuries-old grievances between the two parties and lead them onto the right path, it will definitely be a threat to the imperial court.
According to custom, Sima Rui should have come to pick up Xu Kexin in person, but when he saw that Chu Yunyi had been staring at Jiu'er since he came to Prince Rui's palace, his eyes were burning and deep, he stayed.
At this time, in Xu Kexin's boudoir in the inner courtyard of the Xu Mansion, Xu Kexin was very moved when she saw the six old women in front of her who came to dress her up on the orders of the Ninth Princess. Man, Ninth Princess really treats me like a family member.
Princess Jianrui was already sitting in front of the dressing table. Mrs. Luo, the oldest and most blessed lady, picked up the comb prepared by the maid and gently combed her long black and smooth hair: "One comb will raise the eyebrows, two combs will make the hair white, and three combs Sun Mantang..." Words of auspicious blessings one after another made Xu Kexin blush with embarrassment and full of longing for her future life.
Next, the other five old ladies combed her hair and tied it into buns, and added valuable red hairpins and jade hairpins. They also painted her eyebrows and painted her eyes, and applied them to the nine princesses. The miracle doctor prepared the hard-to-find 'Ning Jade Fragrance', and then Put on the red wedding dress specially made by Prince Rui.
Seeing Princess Rui, who exudes gentleness and tranquility despite her splendor, the six old ladies were very satisfied.
At this time, Xiniang walked in with a smile, and sincerely marveled at the princess's beauty: "The sedan chair for Prince Rui's palace to receive the bride has arrived. Please invite Princess Rui now, so as not to miss the auspicious time."
Hearing the sound of firecrackers outside the sedan chair, the sound of joy, and the blessings of the onlookers, Xu Kexin, who was holding an apple in both hands under the wedding handkerchief, felt nervous and uneasy.
Sima Yue, who came to welcome the bride on behalf of Sima Rui, rode a fine horse. His handsome appearance and heroic temperament made the girls around him all blush, their hearts jump, and they glanced at him shyly and timidly from time to time.
According to custom, the sedan chair has to go around the city. When the wedding procession arrived at the bustling Changxing Street, a carriage suddenly rushed straight towards the wedding procession. The driver shouted loudly: "The horse is frightened, everyone, get out of the way!"
"
The carriage running wildly knocked down many people. For a while, screams and screams could be heard on the street, and everyone was in chaos.
The carriage suddenly stopped a few feet in front of the wedding procession, and a group of masked men in black suddenly landed in front of the carriage from the sky, obviously coming to steal the bride.
Sima Yue sneered: "Whoever dares to approach the sedan chair will be shot to death!" He and the guards who sent him off closely guarded the sedan chair, staring at the group of men in black with high vigilance.
Just when the man in black wanted to snatch the sedan chair, two identical sedan chairs suddenly emerged from the alleys on both sides. Two of Sima Rui's capable lieutenants led the guards who were dressed in exactly the same number as the wedding team and arrived quickly.
Mixed with the previous sedans, the three sedans quickly left from three directions, and the group of people in black were stunned.
At this time, in a simple house four streets away, a masked man in black was sitting at the table, his fair and tender right hand slowly shaking the tea cup in his hand, his eyes as dark as ink, as silent as water, with a faint glow.
Wave light.
"Reporting to the hall master, Xiaoqi sent someone to report that there were three wedding teams in total. It has been confirmed that the sedan chair heading east is the real one."
The masked man in black waved his hand, and the man in black who came to report the news immediately left quickly to deliver the order.
He stood up and walked to the window, looking in the direction of Prince Rui's Mansion. There was a sinister glint in the eyes of the masked man in black, with a hint of determination to win.
And Sima Yue ordered two-thirds of the guards to protect a sedan chair and move quickly eastward. He led one-third of the guards to block the pursuing men in black. Countless traders and people suddenly appeared,
Surrounding the wedding team, the swords in his hands flashed with a dazzling cold light.
Sima Yue and the guards fought back hard, but there were so many people on the other side that they could only watch helplessly as the men in black snatched away the sedan chair.
At the same time, the other two sedan chairs were also snatched away by men in black.
"You continue to pursue, I will inform Prince Rui!" Sima Yue said, whipping off his horse and galloping towards Prince Rui's Mansion.
In the main hall of Prince Rui's Mansion, Sima Rui and Sima Qi were entertaining the guests who came to congratulate themselves. Qingyun sat aside and tasted tea elegantly, with a soft smile on her elegant and refined face. Mo Xuan and Chu Yunyi were on the left and right.
Sitting next to Qing Yun, looking directly into each other's eyes there was an undercurrent surging.
Sima Yue, who came back quickly, knelt heavily in front of Sima Rui: "Third brother, I'm sorry, I'm useless, the sedan chair was snatched away..."
