King of Song

Chapter 678 Chapter [-]
The East Water Gate is rarely opened at night, except for "special circumstances" such as today.

After Su An checked step by step, he let the ship gradually leave the city.

As for the degree of carefulness, it is almost enough. The night vision is not good, so it is impossible to be too careful.

Besides, rumors spread everywhere, the people were dissatisfied with the court's actions, and the soldiers also complained. It's not good to be blatant and passive, but at least the attitude can be less positive.

Some people still have a vague thought in their hearts, if they really meet, they are willing to let Qin Wang's family leave the city.

Judging from the current situation, there is a great possibility that King Qin will take over Bianjing in the future. If he saves the concubine and prince in the future, it will be a great achievement!

Su An also has such expectations, but his purpose is not for credit or speculation, but a pure wish.However, he also knew that King Qin's family had a large number of people and had a big goal, so it was not easy to leave easily.

The waiting boats had already left seven or eight times, and the moon was in the middle of the night, and it was already midnight.After a busy day, even though he was in good health, Su An also felt very tired.

On the shore, he picked up the gourd and took a sip of strong wine, which relieved his fatigue.It has been many years since I met in Hangzhou that year, and it has become a habit.

Then he sent the fellow soldiers back to rest first. He wanted to be quiet and waited for someone.

Sitting under the willows by the river, Su An clearly noticed that at a certain moment, there was a significant change in light and dark, and the familiar figure appeared again.

"Is it an enemy or a friend? Come out and meet!"

A stone came from the sky, and it made a crisp sound when it landed on the stone slab. A woman with long hair appeared by the river.The black costume wrapped her exquisite figure, and her movements were very dexterous.

Su An looked back and felt very familiar, but he couldn't react for a moment.

There was a little disappointment in the expectant eyes of the woman in black, and she said softly, "Brother Su, don't you know me?"

"Miss Yutong?" Su An tentatively called out until he heard the voice.

"It's me, I thought Brother Su didn't know me anymore!" The person who came was Mu Sihong's maid, Yutong, who was a tomboy with short hair back then.Now it is full of blue hair, long hair draped over the shoulders, a little more feminine and graceful.

Su An also said awkwardly: "Miss Yutong changed her makeup, so she didn't recognize her for a while."

"Does that look good now? Or did it look good in the past?" After Yu Tong asked this sentence, a touch of blush appeared on her pretty face.Fortunately, in the dark night, others can't see clearly.

Su An couldn't help being stunned, and said after a while: "I used to be energetic, but now I am more...beautiful!"

The tomboy turns into a lovely big girl, it's obvious.

"That's good!" Yutong seemed very satisfied with the answer.

Su An was stunned again, he didn't know how to answer the question, although he thought it was strange that Yutong suddenly appeared at this moment.He really wanted to ask why, but after opening his mouth slightly, he closed it again. It seemed inappropriate to ask now.

On the banks of the Bian River, willows move with the wind, and under the moonlight, waves float on the water.For a while, neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere was inevitably a little weird.

Yutong lowered her head and held a stone on her slender toes. With a little force, the stone flew out and fell into the river, causing ripples in circles, just like her heart.

The weird atmosphere lasted for a long time before Yutong broke the silence and asked, "Brother Su, how have you been doing these years? I think you have married a wife and started a family, how old is your child?"

No one could see, Yutong's face was like a red apple in the night.She suppressed her throat on purpose, just because she was afraid that her voice would tremble, or that she would lose her courage halfway through.

In the dark night, Su An also hesitated for a moment, and said in a low voice: "How can a rough soldier have a family?"

"Really?" It was the expected answer, but when he said it himself, he still couldn't help being excited.No matter how hard he tried to restrain himself, he couldn't suppress his surging heart.

In five years, something that has been suppressed for five years suddenly opens a gap, and it is not easy to restrain it.Especially for a woman.

Su An is meticulous in his work, but he is a rough man in life.Being careless, he didn't notice the "obvious" emotional changes in his daughter's family at all.

"Miss Yutong, why are you here? Are Mrs. Meng and Mrs. Mu okay?" Su An finally took the initiative to ask. The atmosphere just now was too weird and a little depressing.

"It's all good!" Yutong calmed down now, and now the business is important.

Su An nodded subconsciously, and said with a smile, "That's good, Your Highness King Qin..."

"Your Highness is fine, I think you have already heard about it."

"Yes!"

"His Royal Highness and Madame always miss you!"

When Yu Tong said a word, Su An's eyes lit up immediately, and he couldn't help but startled, and said in surprise, "Really?"

There are too many surprises and excitements in the words, and there is an indescribable feeling.

Yutong secretly heaved a sigh of relief, letting go of a hanging heart, and said softly: "If it weren't for that, Your Highness wouldn't let me come to you at this time!"

"Your Highness asked you to come to me?" Su An was still in surprise.

"Yes!" Yu Tong said: "Actually, His Highness knew your whereabouts a few years ago, I found out... At that time I wanted to come to you, but His Highness refused. At first I thought His Highness was still resenting you , so I didn't dare... until a few days ago, Madam told me that His Highness never blamed you, and that he didn't come to you because he was worried about your safety and made things difficult for you."

"Really?"

Su An was wondering, but in his heart there was more surprise and relief, maybe he didn't have the slightest doubt in his heart at all.

"Yeah!" Yu Tong quietly wiped away the tears from his cheeks, and said in a low voice, "Your Highness and Madam asked me to come here today. They said...Su Bozhou is a man of righteousness. In times of crisis, he is trustworthy."

"But madam, they need help? Su An is obliged to do what needs to be done!"

Su An knew very well what he was busy checking on the canal every day.Yutong can appear at this time, it must be related to this.He is absolutely obliged to help.

He didn't doubt what Yutong said, he knew that person, whether he was the county magistrate or the King of Qin, he was always so frank.

Having no contact for five years is a matter of life and death. Su An didn't complain at all, and was even very excited and gratified.At this moment, Yutong's body is related to the safety of King Qin's family members, and King Qin can let him come to find him, so that if he puts his wealth and life on himself.

How can such a level of trust not move people?Su An felt very honored. King Qin did this, and if he put himself on at the most important moment, it could be seen that he had a position in his heart.

use?Su An didn't think so.In fact, he was very happy to be used by King Qin, and that was an honor.

"Your Highness is right about Brother Su!" Yutong was very excited.

Su An said: "The search is very strict at the moment, and it may not be easy to send the princess and wives out of the city!"

"I know, it's not going out of the city, but..." Yutong walked up to him, lowered his voice and whispered something in Su An's ear.

While Yutong was speaking, she exhaled like blue, and the warm beauty's breath fell on her earlobes and cheeks, Su An couldn't help but her heart beat faster, and her face was also a little bit shy.

But at this moment, he only had big things in his mind, and he was almost in a state of no other distraction, and some subtle feelings were temporarily left behind.

"Okay, I got it, I will cooperate." Su An immediately agreed if he had any concerns.

"Brother Su, this matter may be dangerous, aren't you afraid?" Yutong asked in a low voice.

"People in the army have long put life and death aside." Su An smiled and said: "What's more, when a soldier dies for his confidant, no matter what, he must repay His Highness King Qin's trust, otherwise I will feel even more guilty."

Yu Tong warned: "Be careful, you must save your life and wait for His Highness to come back. At that time, you will be promoted to a noble, and you will..."

"Hmph, I see, don't worry, it's fine!" Su An said with a smile: "Miss Yutong, you should be careful too."

"Yeah!" For a moment, Yutong felt warm in his heart.

"Okay, let's split up!"

"En!" Before leaving, Yutong turned around and said in a low voice, "Brother Su, just call me Yutong from now on."

"Alright, Aunt Yutong...be careful!"

The moonlight was like water, and in the gentle atmosphere beside the Bian River, the two figures hurried away.

……

……

Summer mornings are always extraordinarily cool, especially in the royal garden where birds are singing and flowers are fragrant.

The noble concubine Zhu Shi walked slowly through the flowers as usual. The flowers and plants still smelled like before, with a pleasant fragrance and refreshing.

It's just that the mood is completely different, Mrs. Zhu has no intention of admiring the flowers at all, but just paced back and forth among the flowers, frowning tightly, full of sorrow and worry.

Originally, her life was very good. Although the status of a noble concubine is not as good as that of a queen, she is also extremely noble.The most important thing is that she has a son, and she is the emperor's de facto eldest son. If there is no accident, according to the tradition, she will be the crown prince and ascend the throne as the emperor in the future.Even if she can't become the queen mother in the future, her status will be extremely respected.

It's a pity that the official's family suddenly became critically ill at a young age, which made Zhu very anxious.Fortunately, Queen Xiang has always been kind to her. If her son succeeds, there is still hope.The husband really thought so, and always wanted to make her son Zhao Xu.

However, King Yang appeared on the way, and the queen mother was determined to make her second son, Zhao Hao, emperor.Brother and brother, what should they do with the late emperor's concubines?It can only be the embarrassing wife of the emperor, life will be very difficult.The most infuriating moment was when the throne that belonged to his son was taken away.

Zhu's heart is full of hatred. She is of ordinary background and has little knowledge. She doesn't know what is the most important thing.It's just that she simply thinks that if her son wants to lose the throne, how can she be reconciled?

But her husband was in a coma, and the queen mother was so strong that she, a weak and weak concubine, couldn't resist at all.

Seeing that the situation was getting worse, Zhu's heart became more anxious and restless!
What should I do?
There seemed to be nothing to do but pace the garden and worry about it.

At this most lonely and helpless moment, footsteps sounded, and someone whispered: "Isn't this Concubine Zhu?"

Turning around, Mrs. Zhu saw Zhao Fukang, the eldest princess of Chu State, coming slowly.
