Chapter 467

Xuan Tianhua and others could not understand how the two horses fell, but the carriage could not be spared from this. The person sitting inside was turned out without any surprise.

The few people widened their eyes and looked forward. Unfortunately, the moon was dark tonight, and the suburbs of Beijing were pitch black. Even Xuan Tianhua and Dark Walk, who had a certain night vision ability, could not see the person who fell to the ground clearly.

When they were anxious, suddenly, beside them, a beam of light shone towards the overturned carriage. The light was not as wide as the moonlight, just like it was bright for the person who landed on the ground, and it shone in a column shape and extremely targeted manner.

Xuan Tianhua had no time to think about the light, so he looked at the landing point of the beam, and saw that the person who fell to the ground was looking at them and raised his head.

The man, with a tired face, looked tired, but as soon as he raised his head, the tired face faded away and changed into a cunning smile.

The face looked very much like the third prince Xuan Tianye, and his body was also similar, but his eyes were not similar. Although Xuan Tianye was in charge of conspiracy and was thinking about usurping the throne and forcing the palace every day, his eyes were more fierce than cunning with treacherousness.

The few people were stunned and saw the man raise his hand and touch his face. In a moment, the face that was originally 90% like Xuan Tianye suddenly changed and turned into a completely unfamiliar face.

Xuan Tianhua subconsciously said: "Disguise."

Feng Yuheng stroked his forehead, "Is there really that thing?" But then he became serious and everyone looked at each other, and they all saw the same thoughts as themselves in each other's eyes: Sure enough, they were fooled!

Xuan Tianhua pulled Feng Yuheng and said anxiously: "Run quickly!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a voice coming from the other end of the convoy - "Want to run? It's not that easy!"

In an instant, hidden whistles from all directions surrounded the five of them. Everyone in the convoy drew their swords and arrows, and waves of cold light rushed in, and the melee was about to break out.

At this time, in the Beijing County Lord's Mansion, Feng Zirui was pestering her third sister to act coquettishly-"I will go to the guard in a while, so let's take me there! Let's go and go back quickly, you won't be discovered."

Xiangrong pouted his mouth and pinched his fat face, which was already round, and shook his head and said, "If you have to eat the red bean pastry from that house, I will just ask the servants to go out to buy it. We will have to go there to guard the spirits in less than half an hour. If we come back late and my father is unhappy, why should we mess with him?"

"Sister Three!" This child was particularly good at stoking people's weakness. He knew that Xiangrong couldn't stand anything, so he thrust his little head into her arms desperately, and he was urging like a little fat ball, very cute. "Sister Three, do you know that they just want to go out for a walk? Please take me there, okay? Look, my mother is resting and grandpa is resting. Let's go out quietly and tell the servants that we have gone to Feng Mansion, okay?"

Xiangrong liked this younger brother the most. He was so painful that he could not help but hold it in his arms. Zi Rui used this trick to beg her, but the little girl couldn't resist it. She had no choice but to nod and agreed.

The two of them left the mansion in a thief and got on the carriage. The driver who drove the carriage said with a bitter face: "Young master, third lady, if the county lord knows about this, the old slave will be scolded."

Zi Rui patted his shoulder: "Don't worry! If my sister blames you, I will support you. Let's go to the west of the city to buy snacks!"

The groom beat the horse helplessly, and the carriage rode on the streets of the capital.

Zi Rui has not returned to Beijing for a long time and is determined to see the Beijing area. Xiaopang lifted the curtains of the car and refused to put them down. He had to look out with him.

But when the carriage drove out of the alley in front of Fengfu gate and walked all the way to the street, after half a stick of incense, she found that something was wrong. The capital city tonight seemed a little different. It was normal for officers and soldiers to patrol the city at night, but she had seen the officers and soldiers who were patrolling the city before, and they were wearing lanterns and swords. But tonight the officers and soldiers who patrolled the city were wearing heavy armor. The long swords were not sheathed, and they held the handle in their hands. The lanterns they were carrying were much brighter than before. And... She recalled carefully that the officers and soldiers arranged by Jingzhao Yin used to carry long lanterns. Why did these people change to round lanterns today?

This strange feeling became stronger and stronger as the carriage ran towards the city. More and more heavily armored officers and soldiers came into her eyes. Even Zi Rui saw it and asked in wonder: "Is it because the flood just passed, so the capital was not peaceful, and the night patrol was so strict?"

I knew that this was not the case. Floods are outside. There are no floods in the capital, and all refugees outside the city have been resettled. It is impossible to cause trouble. These heavy-armored officers and soldiers have problems.

It’s not too late now, and there are still people who are sparse on the street. The business of the restaurant and teahouse is still in progress. The dim sum shop they are going to is also closed down. Zi Rui bought the last five yuan of red bean pastry.

Zi Rui wanted to stay outside for a while, but was rejected by Xiangrong. She used Feng Ye’s funeral as an excuse to tell him: “After all, grandmother’s funeral is a big funeral, let’s just sneak out to buy snacks. If you go somewhere else, you may be gossiped if you see it.”

Zi Rui was also a sensible child. After wanting to say this, he stopped asking and took the initiative to say to the coachman: "Let's go home!"

As she came back, Zi Rui felt a little tired and did not go to see the street scene outside. She was so energetic that she took the initiative to lift the curtains and look out. However, the movement of lifting the curtains was very small, and she dared to reveal her eyes, but even so, she still saw an acquaintance.

She narrowed her eyes and looked into the alley opposite. Although the carriage was running fast, she still saw a round lantern suddenly landing on the ground. Then, a long lantern was lit up immediately, reflecting a familiar face - Bu Cong.

She saw Bu Cong, and ran away with just a single step off the carriage, but she could see Bu Cong's face clearly. The two lanterns lit up alternately, and the person holding the round lamp suddenly died. Someone stabbed his chest with a knife, turned off the light, and a new substitute followed.

My heart was pounding, and I put down the curtain, my hands trembled a little.

Seeing something was wrong with her, Zi Rui asked in confusion: "Sister Three, what's wrong with you? Your face is so bad."

Xiangrong shook her head, "It's okay, let's go back quickly, don't delay the wake."

Zi Rui nodded and took the initiative to call the coachman-"Board the horse faster!"

The groom was very happy that the two little masters wanted to go home soon, so they immediately whipped the horse, and the car was much faster.

Finally arrived at the gate of Feng Mansion, Xiangrong took Zi Rui out of the car, personally took Zi Rui to the door of the mansion, and handed it to He Zhong, and instructed: "Send the young master to the mourning hall."

Zi Rui asked her in confusion: "Sister Three, what about you? Don't you go in?"

I wanted to lie to him and said, "Sister wants to go back to the county lord's mansion to change his clothes. You go there first, and the third sister will come later." After that, he pushed him, "Go quickly!"

Seeing He Zhong holding Zi Rui's hand through the front yard and walking towards the Mudan yard, Xiangrong quickly turned around and left the mansion, quickly ran to the county lord's mansion, and when he arrived at the door, he asked the Imperial Guard: "Second sister hasn't left the mansion, right?"

The soldiers guarding the gate were stunned and then said, "I have left the mansion and have gone out long ago. Before the second lady and the young master went out, the county lord had already left with two maids, and they were riding a horse."

"Not in the mansion?" She was anxious, and stomped her feet, then turned around and got into the carriage again.

The coachman was stunned: "Miss San, where are you going?"

Xiangrong lowered his voice and said, "Hurry, let's go to Prince Chun's Mansion." The coachman was stunned, obviously a little surprised, but Xiangrong suddenly looked sharp and warned him: "Go away quickly and don't ask more questions."

The coachman frightened and suddenly felt that the third lady had the feeling of the second lady on her body. So he didn't ask any more questions and quickly whipped the horse and ran towards the direction of Prince Chun's mansion.

I wanted to pray silently along the way, but nothing happened. At least the carriage successfully arrived at the door of Prince Chun's mansion. She lifted the curtain and saw that there was no one behind the car, so she got out of the car quickly.

The guards in front of the Prince Chun's mansion knew Xiangrong. After all, she had been here before, and during the flood, she went everywhere to collect clothes and traveled all over the capital. Although it was too late at this time, she was the sister of the Lord of Ji'an County, and it must be something to come here at this time, but... but Your Highness is not here!

Before she could ask, a guard asked her first: "Miss 3 is here to find Your Highness?"

Xiangrong nodded: "Yes, I have something urgent to ask Your Highness Seventh. Hurry up, please help me pass it down."

"Your Highness is not in the mansion!" The guard stamped his feet, "Why don't Miss Three go into the mansion and wait!"

"Not here?" Xiangrong was a little disappointed. Something was obviously wrong in Beijing, but the second sister and the seventh prince were not here. What should we do?

She stood at the door of Prince Chun’s Mansion and thought for a while, and finally made another decision. She returned to the car and ordered the coachman: "Let's go, Prince Yuan’s Mansion!"

The coachman felt that his third lady must be crazy. Although he didn't dare to ask why he wanted to go to the Royal Palace again, he intuition told him that he was afraid that something was really wrong, otherwise the Third lady would not be so anxious. So he urged the whip in his hand to the Royal Palace faster, and the carriage rushed to the Royal Palace all the way.

I wanted to visit Prince Chun's Mansion, but this was the first time she came to Prince Yu's Mansion, and she came by herself. Fortunately, she has been with Feng Yuheng for a long time and has had a lot of contact with Xuan Tianming. She has also had a reunion dinner together, so she will not seem too unfamiliar.

Finally, the carriage stopped in front of the Yuwang Mansion again. I wanted to jump out of the car. When I looked up, I felt something was wrong in front of the Yuwang Mansion.

They are all the royal palaces, but there are more than three times more guards here than the Prince Chun Palace, and the entire mansion is about to be surrounded. The guards all looked serious, and they immediately asked her to connect all this with the abnormal movements in the capital. She was a little nervous and stood at the door at a loss.

Fortunately, someone recognized her and came forward to ask, "Is it the third lady of the Feng family?"

Xiangrong came to his senses and finally remembered his purpose again, so he quickly said, "It's me, I have something urgent to ask His Highness Ninth. Is he in the mansion?"

Thank God, the servant nodded, "Your Highness is here, please come with the servant."

She followed the man all the way to the Imperial Palace, and didn't bother to look at it. She didn't know how far she had walked, but she heard singing and dancing in front of her. Then there was a person's voice. He said- "Ninth Brother, do you think this sword is really an ancient thing?"
