Xiangmen Concubine: The Emperor's Abandoned Concubine

Chapter 220 Wanted
The closer she got to Lausanne, the more uneasy Ruan Mianmian felt.

Tianzihao also noticed it: "What's wrong?"

Ruan Mianmian frowned and looked at Tianzihao and said, "It's nothing, but I always feel that something is going to happen, and I feel a little uneasy."

Tian Zihao softened his voice and comforted: "It's okay, everything is up to me."

The smile on Ruan Mianmian's face was a bit forced. The two of them were called husband and wife along the way, and they hired a young man to drive. The speed was not fast, even a little slow.

Stopping and stopping along the way, when there were still two days away from Lausanne, Ruan Mianmian couldn't suppress the uneasiness in his heart, so he directly stayed at the roadside inn.

Lying on the bed in the inn at night, Ruan Mianmian has been having trouble falling asleep.

"Tianzihao?"

Looking at the roof, Ruan Mianmian shouted uncertainly.

After a while, Tianzihao's cold voice came from the roof: "I'm here."

Ruan Mianmian smiled and said, "Go and rest, maybe it's just my illusion."

Tian Zihao said coldly: "Whether it is an illusion or not, there is no big mistake in being careful."

Ruan Mianmian smiled lightly and said, "That's true, but you always have to rest, don't you? I slept in the carriage for a long time during the day, go and rest, don't watch on the roof."

Sitting on the roof, Tian Zihao slightly twitched the corners of his lips, and the corners of his lips curled into a very shallow arc: "I can only feel at ease when I see you fall asleep."

The words were spoken in such a low voice that he could hardly hear himself.Ruan Mianmian in the room below naturally didn't hear clearly, thinking that the Tianzihao insisted on guarding, so she didn't persuade her anymore.

After spending the night safely, Ruan Mianmian gave up her original plan to go to Lausanne on the second day and stayed directly at the inn.

The place for lunch is in the lobby on the first floor. One is that the view is relatively wide, but it is convenient to listen to some news.

There were quite a few pedestrians coming and going on the road, and many of them came from Jingling City.When Ruan Mianmian heard that the court ordered the arrest of Feng Changxi, the son of Nanjun Prince, the hand holding the porcelain cup froze slightly.

The Tianzihao on the opposite side glanced sharply at the few guests who had already chatted there, and slowly frowned.

Ruan Mianmian slowly put down the teacup and listened carefully to the conversation of the people over there.

At this moment, a slender middle-aged man came in from outside. Although his appearance was ordinary, his bookish air made him look more refined.

After the man sat down, the men who were chatting over there stopped.

"Mr. Qiu, you are here."

The middle-aged man's surname is Qiu, and the single name is a complete character.My home is near this inn, and it is one of the few residents nearby.

Every day, I come to the inn here to have a cup of tea, chat with the rest of the nearby residents, and talk about current affairs.

Seeing an acquaintance calling him now, he walked over with a smile, and sat down in the seat that everyone had already given up.

"The ones who came here today are actually earlier than me."

The man chatted together: "Isn't it because I heard that Mr. Qiu has the latest news from you, so I came here early in the morning and waited to ask."

"That's right, just now Li Quan said that the imperial court is arresting the prince's son of Nanjun. I listen to the news, but I don't believe it." The chatting man said.

The chatting man said three times: "I also don't think it's credible. The prince of Nanjun is not only the prince of Nanjun, but also the only successor of the medicine king valley."

"The Emperor Taishang is seriously ill, and needs the help of the prince of Nanjun at any time." The fourth chattering man added: "Besides, the king of Nanjun has millions of soldiers in his hands, and the king of Nanjun is not His Royal Highness, who has the heart of rebellion. Now the emperor ordered to arrest the prince. Some can’t be justified.”

"Yeah, I haven't heard that the prince of Nanjun has made any mistakes." The two chatting men said: "The king of Nanjun is the brother of the current Supreme Emperor, and the son can be regarded as the nephew of the Supreme Emperor and the emperor's cousin."

"That's right, so why did the emperor order to arrest the prince of Nanjun?"

The chattering man raised his eyebrows and said: "I heard that it's because our Nanjun prince fell in love with the emperor's woman, who was going to be named queen, the former concubine Jiuyou."

"Princess Jiuyou?" The chattering man San was surprised: "You don't mean the woman who was brought back from outside the brothel when the emperor was still the ninth prince?"

The man chatting together: "Isn't that right, when did you hear that there are other concubines of Jiuyou?"

"How is it possible?" The chattering men said three times: "I heard that Princess Jiuyou was so beautiful, she seems to be a fairy descending from the earth."

"Have you heard? Who did you listen to?" The second chattering man glanced at the third chattering man opposite him and said, "You've been busy all day in your one-acre three-point land, the appearance of Princess Jiuyou, shouldn't it be Is it your own imagination?"

The three faces of the chatting man were reddish, but he said loudly: "This is indeed what I imagined, but is there anything wrong with my imagination?"

"If Concubine Jiuyou was not born extremely beautiful, like a celestial maiden descending to earth. How could the emperor, who never forgets his concubine, go directly to the Supreme Emperor to ask for an order to confer that woman as Concubine Jiuyou?"

Seeing that the rest of the partners did not speak, the chattering man three turned his attention to Mr. Qiu: "Mr. Qiu, tell me, am I right?"

Qiu Cheng smiled and glanced at the chattering man three times, with unreadable thoughts hidden in his eyes, took a sip of tea, paused before speaking slowly: "Actually, what you said may not be wrong."

Mr. San Jianqiu, a chatty man, agreed with his opinion, with a happy smile on his face, he stretched out his hand and patted his thigh: "Let me just say, if it's not a woman who is as beautiful as a fairy, how could she be favored by the emperor like that."

Qiu Cheng said with a smile: "You are right, I also heard that when the emperor was still the ninth prince, no matter where he went, as long as he took the princess with him, he would definitely let the princess wear a veil, and would not let others peep. "

"Yeah, I've also heard about this. I also heard that even if His Highness the Ninth Prince goes out to fight, he will bring the princess with him!"

"I also know about this. A few days ago, there was news from Bianhe City that there was a woman in the army, who was next to His Highness the Ninth Prince. She was said to be very beautiful, and she should be Princess Jiuyou."

The chatting man saw that everyone was talking more and more off topic, so he quickly stood up and said: "All kinds, our topic today is about the emperor's arrest of the King of Nanjun, not the appearance of Princess Jiuyou."

"Besides, there is probably no one else in the world who has seen the appearance of Princess Jiuyou except His Royal Highness Jiuyou and the people around him."

As he said that, the chattering man looked at Qiu Cheng and said, "Mr. Qiu, don't just drink tea, but tell us why the emperor ordered the arrest of Prince Nanjun's son across the country."

Qiu Cheng put down his teacup, looked at the crowd and said, "Since you all know that the emperor is looking for the prince of Nanjun all over the country, has no one seen the arrest warrant?"

All the men shook their heads in unison. They had indeed never seen the arrest warrant.Although this is the only way to go to Lausanne, it is not Lausanne.

The guests who have come and gone recently are spreading the word. Slowly, although they are not completely convinced, they are also half-believing.And Li Quan was sure because he had a relative who came from Lausanne three days ago and heard what the relative said.

Qiu Cheng smiled, and said in a gentle voice: "Then do you know that on the day the emperor ascended the throne, the canonized empress, Princess Jiuyou, disappeared?"

"Of course I know this, but what does this have to do with the arrest of the prince of Nanjun?" asked the third chattering man.
