Chapter 106 House Arrest
Before Chen Yuan could come out of the sadness of the death of the young master, someone came to report that it was surrounded by heavy troops outside the inn. The leader said that there were bandits ahead and he was ordered by the princess to ensure the safety of the envoys, so he could not let anyone out for the time being. It was called protection, but in fact it was under house arrest.
Chen Yuan secretly said that it was not good. It seemed that when the young master died, Yu Jing was in a critical situation. The princess of Xiangcheng planned to threaten Qi Yan with Li Mao's life and did not allow Qi Yan to invade the border at this time. Li Mao was too eye-catching and it was unlikely that he would secretly send him away. Chen Yuan, as an envoy, could not let the prince be imprisoned. She thought carefully in the room.
Young Master, what should I do? Chen Yuan only felt depressed in her heart, as if once the young master left, there was no more she could worry about in this world. For a moment, her heart was empty, she couldn't hold on to anything except sadness, and she didn't want to do anything except memorial.
"Miss," Aunt Tang suddenly came in from outside the house and handed Chen Yuan a note. She saw the words "Golden Cicada Escapes the Shell" written on it. Aunt Tang didn't recognize the handwriting, so she sent it to Chen Yuan.
"Who gave it to you?" Chen Yuan carefully identified it and confirmed that it was the handwriting of Brother Yu Xiu. It seemed that he was also in Yujing, but what was he doing here?
Qiutang said that someone wrapped a small stone and threw it at her feet. When she searched for it, she didn't find anyone.
It seems that this person is just coming to send a message, and can avoid Aunt Tang's tracking. He must have good martial arts skills. Who is it? Brother Yuxiu gave her these four words, should she want her to escape from the cicada or to escape from the crown prince? She sighed, not knowing the mystery.
"Miss, in order to calm the public's anger, Princess Xiangcheng said to the public that the young master had committed all his merits and demerits. Now that the person has left, he will be buried with him and give him decent..." Qiutang knew that Chen Yuan cared about Ying Zhen. Although these things would make her feel uncomfortable, it could be considered as explaining the young master's affairs, which made Chen Yuan relieved.
"Aunt Tang, can you find a way to send me out?" Chen Yuan asked in a low voice. She must not sit here and wait for death. The more Princess Xiangcheng wanted to harm them, the more she would fight back. Because Chen Yuan knew that she could not retreat blindly. She wanted to fulfill his dream for the young master and unify the fragmented land of China. But before that, she still wanted to send the young master.
Qiutang didn't ask much, but just thought about it for a while, then nodded at Chen Yuan, "It's just that I don't want to worry about you going out alone."
Chen Yuan smiled and shook the note in his hand, "Brother Yuxiu is here to Yujing. Will Shuyao come to follow us? Don't worry, she will come to us."
Sure enough, that night, Shu Yao mixed in as a soldier. At that time, Chen Yuan was staring at the candlestick alone.
"My little husband, what are you thinking?" Shu Yao came to Chen Yuan and teased.
"It's time counting."
"It turns out that I don't miss me," Shu Yao sat opposite Chen Yuan and asked curiously: "When is it?"
Chen Yuan looked at her by her side and suddenly felt very warm for no reason, as if she had a strong backing. But if Shu Yao knew that she had used her in the future, she would not know what she would think. "I'm counting the time when King Qi was about to send troops."
Shu Yao stopped talking, then looked around. In order to prevent anyone from eavesdropping, she leaned closer and asked softly: "How do you know that your brother-in-law is going to send troops? Someone told you?"
Chen Yuan shook his head, "I guess." Shu Wei came to pick up people with the second son of the Zhao family. He didn't have many people, but he was very powerful. Such movements were just a cover-up. The real backup should be King Qi.
Since the young master is the child of Princess Ziyang, Qi Yan cannot not know his existence. Then the young master has been planning for Qi Yan, so King Qi may have made an agreement with the young master that he will take action once the young master dies. But King Qi has not taken action yet, is he waiting for an opportunity?
Since Qi Yan and Yu Jing always have an evil relationship, Chen Yuan would rather help the fire and give Qi Yan a reason to send troops. Princess Xiangcheng detained the envoy of Prince Qi Yan, originally wanted to threaten Qi Yan so that they would not act rashly, but this was Xiangcheng's negligence. If the prince was killed in Yu Jing, Qi Yan would have more reason to send troops to attack. At that time, the old ministers of Fengxia would be jointly rebelled and inciting the subjects of Yu Jing to seek justice for the prince. Yu Jing was full of smoke and smoke to see how the dignified princess of the country would calm down.
As for the Western China Kingdom, they themselves had no time to take care of it, and it was difficult to fight against Qi Yan's Iron Cavalry at this moment. Moreover, with Chen Yuan's understanding of Emperor Xi Hua, they were accustomed to cater to the will. At this time, they would never participate in the war between Qi Yan and Yu Jing. They would only wait until the war sank and then go to the victorious side to please the victorious side, so Xi Hua was not worth worrying about.
Since Chen Yuan wanted to help the young master fulfill his last wish, he naturally could not forget the secret that Mrs. Mi told her that day. Seven days later, Yu Jing was about to change the sky. Chen Yuan looked at the candlelight that was jumping in front of her and suddenly felt that these seven days would be very long.
Jiang Shuyao saw Chen Yuan's mysterious and knew that something big would happen this time. She was just a very lively person. She really didn't have the heart of Chen Yuan for family, country and the world. But she knew that Chen Yuan's fiancé, Ying Zhen, was no longer there.
"You..." Jiang Shuyao wanted to ask Chen Yuan what he planned to do in the future, but she didn't dare to ask. She was afraid that Chen Yuan would feel uncomfortable. Anyone would feel uncomfortable, Jiang Shuyao sighed.
"What's wrong?" Chen Yuan rarely sees Shu Yao who is thinking too much. If there is still a trace of warmth for her in this world, it is Jiang Shu Yao in front of her.
"It's nothing. It's because you've been so tired recently and have lost weight." Jiang Shuyao smiled, "It's not okay if you lose weight like this. Anyway, we can't go out these days. I have to go to the kitchen to make you more supplements, so that you can't keep you white and fat!"
When Chen Yuan heard this, his expression couldn't help but calm down a little, and he didn't know how long he could spend with Shu Yao. After so many things, Chen Yuan finally understood what it means to "It's better to cherish the person in front of you." Whether it's family, love or friendship, if you can get along with each other, you have to cherish this point, otherwise who knows what tomorrow will be like? Things in the world are impermanent, probably like this.
"You have a great cooking skills because of Zhou Yuxiu?"
Shu Yao felt a little embarrassed. Some time ago, she always made delicious food for Zhou Yuxiu in different ways. "You know this, I want to give you a surprise. I said you, it's just that you look at things too thoroughly. Sometimes it's better to turn a blind eye to cooperate with me?"
Chen Yuan was a little apologized. She just regarded Shu Yao as a close person, so she felt that she didn't need to use much scheming on her, and she said what she thought. But Shu Yao was right. No matter how close people are, they should leave a little room and just listen to the other person quietly. Even if she knew that the other person would say nothing, she would not interrupt. Isn't this a beautiful thing?
"It's because I'm not good. How about punishing me to eat more delicious food made by my wife?"
Jiang Shuyao chuckled, "I see that your face is very pale. Why not make some honey bean pastry and chili cake tomorrow morning, and then cook some eight-treasure millet porridge for you, and a few side dishes, how about it?"
Chen Yuan nodded. In fact, she admired Shuyao's true nature. For example, in the eyes of the world, ladies from a high school cannot be contaminated with the word "cooking skills", but Shuyao is willing to wash her hands and make soup for her beloved person, regardless of the worldly gaze. Isn't it a breakthrough?
Sometimes, people are easily tired of themselves and others, and they spend their entire lives groping in rules and regulations. They want to break through the cage, but are afraid that others will point fingers, and they will eventually fall into a mediocre cycle.
Lying on the bed at night, Chen Yuan listened to Shu Yao's slight breathing, but she tossed and turned and couldn't sleep at night. In the morning, she thought she would be very sad when she heard the bad news of the death of the young master, but now Chen Yuan only felt her heart empty, as if the young master was not dead, but she just traveled far away, maybe she would come back tomorrow, maybe...
She closed her eyes and gently reached out to hold the square brocade in her arms, as if the young master was here and never left her.
Since that night, Chen Yuan never mentioned the young master again, as if there was no such gentle person in her heart. Qiutang was also very strange. She thought Chen Yuan would be depressed for a while, but Chen Yuan's bright eyes could not see any sadness. Maybe the lady had figured it out, after all, this person had passed away.
In order to go out early, Chen Yuan asked Qiutang to find a way to help her. Shuyao happened to come to her place without telling everyone, so she asked Shuyao to pretend to be herself and stay at the post station. With Qiutang's help, she escaped quietly and asked Qiutang to stay for Shuyao to cover her. Before leaving, Qiutang asked, "Miss, after you have made arrangements, remember to tell me the way."
