Chapter 376 Who is coming?
Speaking of Prince Chun of Xishu, Han Jiangxue really didn't have much impression. This man was the younger brother of the Emperor of Xishu, and he was also one of the princes who was highly regarded by the late Emperor of Xishu.
Although Prince Chun was also present at the banquet hosted by the Emperor of Xishu to entertain her that day, due to the appearance of Marquis Jiangning that day, he of course paid less attention to other people. I vaguely remember that he was almost forty years old.
At the next year's age, he has an average face, and he still has a certain sense of kindness, but he doesn't pay much attention to other things.
Later she discovered that Prince Chun was not a peaceful person.
In fact, when Luo Qier sent black-clad assassins to assassinate people on the street for the first time, she thought that there must be someone in Xishu secretly supporting Luo Qier's actions, providing Luo Qier with convenience and manpower, etc.
Then on the day she returned, she asked Dong Ling to mobilize all Mo Li's forces here to secretly investigate the matter and find out who Sheng Fang spared no effort in helping Luo Qier to kill her.
When Luo Qier died, Dong Ling and the others noticed more clues. After rescuing Jiang Yunchang, they basically had the answers prepared. She recorded all these things clearly and asked Dong Ling to hand them over in person.
To the King of England.
The King of England was a capable person, and with the various clues that Dong Ling and others had investigated in advance, he decisively identified the suspect's identity and purpose.
The matter was of great importance, involving the struggle for the imperial power of Western Shu. It had already involved more than just the life and death of a distinguished guest like Han Jiangxue, so the King of England did not hesitate and went directly to the palace to report the matter to the emperor.
Before setting off back to Dongming, Han Jiangxue had already secretly discussed everything with the King of England and arranged everything, waiting for Prince Chun to take action.
The appearance of this commoner old monster was expected by them. The King of England had already found out the specific strength of this person. After ensuring that Kunnu could completely take down this person, everything became much simpler.
.
After Beifeng handed over the commoner to the King of England's people, Prince Chun no longer needed Han Jiangxue to take care of his affairs, and the Emperor of Xishu would naturally clean up his family. But this time, Han Jiangxue helped the Emperor of Xishu again.
I am very busy. The good relationship I have forged will naturally not be in vain in the future.
Within two hours, Bei Feng caught up with Han Jiangxue and his party again and informed them that the matter was settled and arrangements had been made for the injured brothers. Han Jiangxue was asked not to worry.
At the same time, now that Kun Nu had appeared, he no longer followed secretly. Instead, he escorted Han Jiangxue with Dong Ling and others. The group traveled lightly, and their speed was much faster than before.
After entering Dongming territory, their whereabouts became smoother and smoother, without any minor troubles for seven or eight days. At this time, they were getting closer and closer to the capital.
When they arrived at a small town called Jiangxia, it was already dark. Dong Ling took everyone directly into the only inn in the town. Secret guards had already arrived in advance and booked customers for the eldest lady.
Rest overnight.
As soon as she entered the inn, Han Jiangxue felt something strange inside. Although the town was not big and there were not many people coming and going, this was the only inn in the town after all. At this time, except for the waiter and the shopkeeper, there was no one inside.
Guests.
"Don Ling. Did you ask someone to book this place?" Han Jiangxue said to Dong Ling beside him: "This is not possible. There is only such an inn here. It will be very inconvenient for other travelers if they have no place to stay.
of."
"Miss, I didn't book this place, I just asked someone to come over and book the room first." Dong Ling said, "Maybe it's just a coincidence, there are no people staying in the hotel today."
After hearing this, the shopkeeper on the side quickly stepped forward and explained: "Miss, the shop has indeed been booked by someone. This afternoon, after the girl's entourage had just booked a room, another person came.
This distinguished guest has booked all the remaining rooms. Moreover, the lady does not have to worry about other guests. A smaller inn opened less than a mile outside the town a few days ago, so she is not worried.
There is no place to live.”
"That's it." After hearing this, Han Jiangxue nodded slightly and said nothing else.
Ziyue looked around cautiously and said, "Shopkeeper, since all the other rooms here have been booked, why don't you see anyone staying in the hotel?"
"Girl, it's like this. Just like you, the people who book the rooms have sent people over to make reservations in advance. They haven't arrived yet, and they probably won't arrive until later in the evening." The shopkeeper explained with a smile, and then continued
Asked: "I wonder if you gentlemen should have your meal downstairs first, or should you go back to your room to rest first and let me deliver the food to the guest room?"
"First prepare more hot water for my lady and send it to the room. Later, we will prepare some more exquisite meals. I will ask someone to come down to pick them up." Ziyue has gradually gained some water over the past few days.
The housekeeper looks like she can arrange these things with ease.
When the shopkeeper heard this, he immediately agreed, while Dong Ling asked the others to take turns eating in batches, while the rest went to check the inn first and protect the eldest lady.
"Miss, do you need to check out the people who booked the inn first?" After sending Han Jiangxue to his room, Dong Ling asked for instructions. Whether it was a coincidence or not, it was worth noting that such a situation occurred.
"No need, if those people really have a problem, they won't use such an obvious way." Han Jiangxue shook his head: "After the people arrive, just pay more attention. You have been tired for a day.
, let’s each go down to eat and rest.”
"Yes!" In this way, Dong Ling obeyed the order and did not mention what happened just now.
"Mistress, just in case, let Kun Nu go and investigate alone, so that you can feel more at ease." Kun Nu suddenly said something and actively requested to investigate the origins of the group of people in the private room.
.
Seeing this, Han Jiangxue did not refuse anymore. She thought for a moment and said, "That's okay. You can go. If they don't have any problems, it's best not to disturb them, so as not to make them worried."
Everyone takes safety as the top priority when going out, so Han Jiangxue doesn't want her people to disturb other people by protecting her. This is not always good.
"Master, please don't worry, Kunnu will keep it in mind." After saying that, Kunnu no longer delayed, and took the first step to retreat.
Dong Ling stopped disturbing him and stepped aside, letting Ziyue serve the eldest lady first.
After closing the door, Ziyue tested the temperature of the hot water behind the screen. Seeing that it was just right, she asked Han Jiangxue to move over and take a nice hot bath to relieve her fatigue.
Even though I stayed on the carriage all day long, it was really not comfortable to sit there for a long time. After a whole day of jolting, my bones were about to fall apart.
Although the carriage Han Jiangxue was riding in was carefully modified by Mo Li, and was much more stable than ordinary carriages, the roads they had traveled in the past two days were really uneven, and they were much more tiring than usual.
.
After taking a bath and changing into clean clothes, Han Jiangxue felt much refreshed.
"Ziyue, don't be busy. Go take a bath first. It's very comfortable." Han Jiangxue saw Ziyue busy there again to prepare food for her, and said with a smile: "Okay, don't be busy, I'll do it again."
It’s not that you don’t know how to clip. You’ve been tired for a day, so go to rest early, eat something, and have a good sleep.”
"Don't worry, I'll go there after the lady finishes eating." Ziyue said and asked Han Jiangxue to eat quickly so as not to starve.
"Then let's eat together. Anyway, I can't finish so much food by myself." Seeing this, Han Jiangxue directly pulled Ziyue to sit down: "Eat quickly, go to rest early after eating, we have to get up early tomorrow morning
On the way."
Ziyue is not the kind of person who is pretentious. Besides, she has eaten at the same table with the eldest lady more than once when she was away from home, so she did not shirk and sat down quickly.
The two of them had just picked up their bowls and were about to eat, when someone knocked on the door outside, and Dong Ling's slightly anxious voice said: "Ziyue, come out quickly, I have something urgent to do with you."
Seeing that it was Dong Ling, Ziyue opened the door and asked in confusion: "What's going on?"
"Oh, please come out first and then talk." Dong Ling was uncharacteristically not caring about the difference between men and women, and just pulled Ziyue and walked out.
Of course, Dong Ling did not forget to say to Han Jiangxue in the room sheepishly: "Miss, I'm really sorry, my subordinate has some personal matters and urgently needs Ziyue's help. Please be accommodating and eat by yourself first. What's the matter?"
There are people waiting outside, just give them your order."
Having said that, Dong Ling bit the bullet and without waiting for Han Jiangxue's response, he directly pulled Ziyue away who was already speechless by his rude and abrupt behavior for the first time.
After the two people left the door, the guard guarding outside closed the room again so as not to disturb the eldest lady.
Han Jiangxue was also a little baffled at this moment. She really didn't know that Dong Ling just took the wrong medicine and took Ziyue so freely in front of her. She also said that she had some personal matters to see Ziyue.
Yue helped, I really don’t know when this guy got the idea.
It was indeed abnormal, but Han Jiangxue didn't think much about it. Instead, she was happy for Dong Ling and Zi Yue. As a result, it was difficult for the relationship between the two to break through again.
Smiling, without thinking any more, she picked up the bowl again and prepared to eat.
This chopstick had just picked up a piece of ribs, and before he could put it in his mouth, there was another knock on the door.
"You're back so soon? What the hell is Dong Ling doing? Are you playing tricks on you?" Han Jiangxue just thought it was Ziyue, put down the bowl strangely and said, "Come in quickly!"
After hearing her words, the person who knocked on the door didn't answer, but the door creaked and was pushed open.
Soon, a cyan figure walked in, but it was not Ziyue! (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
