The Peerless Concubine of the King's Favorite

Chapter 301 Anxious, ride back to Beijing! (2)
The capital city of Southern Chu, Jianning.

Xiaoyao Wangfu is located in the middle east of the imperial city, covering an area of ​​thousands of square meters, with a huge scale and majestic momentum, overlooking the imperial palace.

As long as they are from Southern Chu, there is no one who does not know Xiaoyao Wang.Anyone who is from Jianning knows that Xiaoyao Palace is equivalent to the second palace, and no one can desecrate it.

However, no one knew that since Zhao Shenghao was ten years old, this Xiaoyaowang Mansion would be visited by killers almost every month. The killers didn't seem to want to kill him, but more for torture, a kind of pathological torture.

The world only knows that Xiaoyao Wang is a playboy, domineering and domineering.What he didn't know was that he lived a life of assassination all day long. Over the past ten years, he was also used to this kind of life.

Zhao Shenghao, the king of Xiaoyao, was assassinated. He was poisoned and fell into a coma. His life was at stake.

As soon as the news spread to the palace, Zhao Cong, the emperor of Southern Chu, was furious. He not only ordered the entire city to be sealed off, but also the whole country to arrest the murderer.Even at night, he brought the imperial doctor to Prince Xiaoyao's mansion to personally check on King Xiaoyao's condition.

It is said that Zhao Cong waited by Xiaoyao Wang's side for three days and three nights before returning to the palace at the Queen's kneeling request.

Before leaving, he gave an extremely weird order.

Send the eldest prince Zhao Shengxi to blockade the whole city and arrest the murderer.The sick child, the third prince Zhao Shenggao, was responsible for protecting the safety of Prince Xiaoyao's mansion, while the second prince, Zhao Shengqian, acted as a mediator between the two.

It is not only responsible for arresting murderers, but also finding good medicine to wake up Xiaoyao Wang.

The assassination of a dude prince made the three princes in the royal family busy.

Once again, the Emperor of Southern Chu declared to the world that he attached great importance to Prince Xiaoyao's mansion and his preference for King Xiaoyao.

However, after many important court officials learned of this imperial order, their minds turned again, secretly thinking about the hidden meaning of this imperial decree.

Today's Prince Xiaoyao's mansion is heavily guarded and heavily guarded by the imperial guards, and ordinary people cannot enter at all.

Anyone who knew the inside would know that these seemingly identically dressed imperial guards included the subordinates of the two princes.Such protection made the atmosphere in the entire Xiaoyao Palace extremely sensitive.

After that night, the assassin disappeared without a trace, leaving only Xiaoyao Wang still unconscious.

After days of running around, Chu Qing and the others finally arrived in front of the capital city of Jianning.

Looking at the tall and majestic city wall, there is also a plaque hanging high on the city gate.Even though Chu Qing's whole body was sore and unbearable, her heart relaxed a little.

She had already come to Zhao Shenghao's side, and there was no news from Ah Fu.From a certain point of view, at least Zhao Shenghao is still alive, isn't he?

Along the way, every time Chu Qing thought that Zhao Shenghao would die, her heart would feel like being grabbed by someone, and she would feel a pang of pain.This kind of pain has already surpassed the pain of fighting against the disease under the medicine in her previous life, and even farther than the pain of being poisoned to death by Kuang Tianting.

Although she was calm on the surface, she kept telling herself in her heart that Zhao Shenghao will be fine, Zhao Shenghao will be fine...

At that time, she suddenly realized that this person, unknowingly, had quietly entered her life, her world.

Under the city gate, there are many checkpoints and strict guards.

Especially in the direction of going out of the city, everyone must be checked, men, women and children.

Chu Qing nodded slightly, a Buddha guard got off his horse and stepped forward to inquire.After a while, he turned back, came to Chu Qing's horse, and said in a deep voice: "Master, now you need to register your information to enter the city, otherwise you will not be able to enter. Going out of the city is even more troublesome. Not only do you need the government's road, but you also need to search."

Chu Qing frowned slightly, whispered a bit, and said, "In that case, register to enter the city." At this moment, all she thought about was entering the city, and as for leaving the city, she will talk about it when necessary.

A group of 12 people rode horses and came slowly to the gate of the city and filled in the information one by one.Including, who is the last name, who is the person, why did you come to the capital, how many days did you leave, what relatives and friends are there in Jianning City, etc.

Fortunately, Chu's firm already had a store in Jianning, after Chu Qing thought about it, he filled in the information with half truth and half false information.

She couldn't just write carelessly on it that the reason she came to Jianning was to visit King Xiaoyao.

Leaving aside whether this is appropriate or not, if the word "Xiaoyao Wang" appears, she will be regarded as the focus of attention.At this moment, the situation is unclear, so she naturally wants to keep a low profile.

After finally entering the city, Chu Qing knew what it meant to be jittery.

Jianning, this is not the first time she has come here.However, this time, the bustle and bustle of the past was nowhere to be seen. Although there were still many pedestrians on the street, there were raids by officers and soldiers every now and then, which still made the citizens of Jianning capital terrified.

After thinking about it for a while, Chu Qing didn't take people to Xiaoyao Wangfu immediately, but went to the Chu family's shop.

The reason why she chose to go to Chu's shop instead of the branch of Jiuming Company in Jianning was because Futuwei told her quietly on the way that someone was following her.

As soon as Chu Qing thought about it, he knew that it must be people from the government who were secretly watching to see if they were really related to the Chu family business.

In order not to arouse suspicion, she naturally went to the store of Chu's firm.

When I came to the place, the shops on this street were all closed.

This surprised Chu Qing and made Xing Rong knock on the door.After a while, someone pulled down the door panel and poked his head out.

The manager of the Chu family who was in charge of the Jianning store knew Chu Qing. The last time Chu Zhengyang came to handle errands, he brought Chu Qing with him. He was the one who brought the boss and the young lady to the yard that the Chu family built in Jianning.

When he saw his face clearly, his pupils shrank, and he quickly welcomed the person in.

After drinking a cup of hot tea, Chu Qing asked, "Guard Ji, although everyone in the city is in danger, it is not impossible to do business, why..."

Steward Ji sat beside him, sighed helplessly, and explained to Chu Qing: "Miss just entered the city, so I don't know the urgency in the city these days."

"Oh? Just tell me." Chu Qing said calmly with a twinkle in her eyes.

Steward Ji twitched his lips, looked at Chu Qing, hesitated to speak.Chu Qing was pointed out by the emperor to be the concubine of King Xiaoyao, and now the whole country knows it. Ji Guanshi is a member of the Chu family, so how could he not know?

Seeing his hesitation, Chu Qing smiled and said softly: "It's okay, Ji Guan is telling the truth."

Seeing Chu Qing like this, Guanshi Ji gritted his teeth and told what he knew.

It turned out that since Zhao Shenghao was poisoned and fell into a coma, and the emperor issued an imperial edict to search the whole city in a fit of anger, many shops were looted and smashed maliciously by officers and soldiers, causing a lot of losses.As time went by, the shops on the street closed down one after another, and I wanted to wait until the wind had passed.

Today, in Jianning City, there are no closed shops, only those shops with a hard background.
