Mu Cen didn't hesitate and quickly got on the carriage. Rong Jiu and Ji Niang were already waiting in the car.
None of the three talked.
Rong Jiu opens the curtain and tells the coachman a few words. The coachman immediately raises his whip and the carriage flies towards Gu's house on the outskirts of Beijing.
……
On the way, Mu Cen was always a little nervous.
I can't say why.
When the carriage was about to reach the city gate, suddenly the speed slowed down. Rong Jiu and Mu Cen in the carriage looked at each other, and Ji Niang, who had woken up, was nervous.
They all knew very well that the carriage would not stop so suddenly. Something must have happened.
Rong Jiu looks at Mu Cen: "Miss mu, my subordinates go out to have a look."
Mu Cen made a sound, and Rong Jiu soon opened the curtain and asked about the coachman. Ji Niang looked at Mu Cen, and Mu Cen's eyes were soothing.
"Don't worry. It's probably a routine inspection. After all, it's by the gate of the city, which has always been the case. This carriage belongs to his royal highness King yuan, and the bodyguards gave them the courage to do so. " Mu Cen said calmly.
Ji Niang twisted her eyebrows, her pale lips moved, but she didn't say anything at last, so she sat quietly.
And Mu Cen's heart is beating a drum, not as calm as it seems.
It is impossible for Li Shiyuan not to doubt Li Shiyuan during this period of time. The news that has been spread in the palace one after another proves this point.
If Li Shiyuan had arranged the bodyguard by Cheng's gate, he would have doubted when he saw Li Shiyuan's carriage leaving the city.
Li Shiyuan's family members hardly left the palace easily.
Li Shiyuan himself did not need a car.
Therefore, the carriage of lengbudingyuan palace appeared at the gate of the city. How could it not be doubted. In addition to the guards at the gate, Mu Cen didn't know how many people could obey Li Shiyuan's orders.
She didn't speak, just waiting for Rong Jiu to come back, constantly pressing her uneasiness and forcing herself to calm down.
Ji Niang feels Mu Cen's worry. Ji Niang looks at Mu Cen. In this case, she doesn't know what to say.
Soon, Rong Jiu had turned back.
Mu Cen looked up at Rong Jiu. Rong Jiu's voice was stable: "Miss mu, I don't know what happened. The guard at the gate of the city is checking every carriage again. You and the fourth lady stay in the carriage. Don't make any noise. My subordinates will deal with the rest."
"Good." Mu Cen didn't say much, but nodded to Rong Jiu.
Rong Jiu nodded. Just as he was about to quit, Mu Cen suddenly stopped Rong Jiu: "Mr. Rong, do you know what the bodyguard is for? Search one by one?"
Before this situation, it was when there was an accident in Wangxiang building.
At that time, Li Shiyuan almost preferred to kill by mistake, so as long as he saw something similar, he would be detained by Li Shiyuan's people.
Some lucky people can leave, most of them have already died.
But such a big action had stopped after a while, and now it suddenly came again, which made Mu Cen's eyebrows tighten and his heart beat faster.
Rong Jiu didn't hide from Mu Cen and said quickly, "it's because something happened in Wangxiang building before. His highness searched for it for a while. Later, he would choose to search from time to time. Unfortunately, we met today."
right enough.
Mu Cen didn't speak.
But Rong Jiu comforted Mu Cen: "don't worry about Miss mu. My subordinates will handle this matter well."
Mu Cen said nothing.
Soon, Rong Jiu retreated again. This time, the man who lifted the carriage became Rong Jiu. The carriage began to move slowly again and drove towards the city gate.
Sure enough, at the gate of the city, their carriage was stopped by the guard: "get off, we want to check."
The voice of the guard was not polite at all.
Mu Cen didn't say a word, Ji Niang didn't say a word, but through the crack of the curtain, Mu Cen still recognized that the bodyguards were all Li Shiyuan's people.
The three entrances and exits of the city gate were surrounded by many bodyguards. They checked them one by one. They didn't let any one go because of the luxury of the carriage or other circumstances.
Soon, Rong Jiu's voice came: "wanton, I'm from the yuan palace. This is the carriage of the fourth highness. Are you sure you really want to check it? Do you know what crime it is to investigate his Highness's carriage in private? And then again. Why don't I know that the emperor has given an order to thoroughly investigate every carriage. "
This is Li Shiyuan's personal behavior, which naturally can not be ordered by Li changtianxia.
So the bodyguard was asked by Rong Jiu and looked at each other. For a moment, they didn't know what to say, but they had to follow the orders above.
Because Li Shiyuan's order is not to let go, no matter what the origin of the other party's carriage is, it must be thoroughly investigated.
This kind of picture, see more, so the bodyguard also appears more calm: "Mr. Rong, the slaves just act according to the order, please forgive me, if there is a place to offend, also look to Mr. Rong a lot."
The implication is that today's carriage is determined by them, without exception.
Rong Jiu's brow twisted, and he didn't slacken at all: "you dog slaves are going to disturb your highness. Can you bear the responsibility?"
The guard's face did not change.
For Li Shiyuan, their attitude is more lukewarm. Li Shiyuan is not favored in the palace, and it's no secret to be in Kyoto, not to mention that Rong Fei died long ago. Besides, even when Rong Fei was still alive, Rong Fei was only in favor for a short time. Now, I'm afraid Rong Fei is also a neglected person.
How can you compare with your highness today.
So, the bodyguard looked at Rong Jiu: "offended, Mr. Rong."
Rong Jiu's hand was on the scabbard and he was ready to draw his sword.
The atmosphere outside was noisy and angry.
Mu Cen and Ji Niang in the car also feel clear, but their faces always seem more calm.
Mu Cen's brain turns fast, thinking about the countermeasures.
"Miss --" Ji Niang called Mu Cen's name with her lips and compared her face.
Ji Niang's face has been changed by Mu Cen, which is far away from her own appearance. With the present clothes, she is no longer the Ji Niang she used to be.
Mu Cen also instantly understood Ji Niang's meaning.
Ji Niang wants to change her face.
On the way out, for fear of accidents, Mu Cen actually brought some simple tools.
She nodded, but she didn't know how much time Rong Jiu could buy them.
Quiet, Mu Cen so tap the edge of the carriage, and then, Mu Cen did not hesitate, and Rong nine tacit understanding, Mu CEN is telling Rong nine, how long it takes.
Obviously, Rong Jiu already knows.
He just needs to delay a little longer, which is enough to create opportunities for Muchen.
