The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

Chapter 356 Interception

Li Ling recaptured the four cities in the northwest, and injured no more than a thousand soldiers. Li Ling obeyed the emperor's order and distributed all the [-] troops he brought with him to each city for garrison. When he returned to Beijing, he was ordered to bring only [-] soldiers with him.

It has been more than half a year since this expedition, Li Ling settled down the guards of the four cities and returned to Beijing triumphantly.

King Jin had been in poor health and spirit due to excessive fright, so Li Ling could only place him in the carriage to accompany him. King Jin slept in the carriage every day to recuperate from his illness, and he never heard his eloquent speeches during the journey.

On this day, halfway through the journey, more than a hundred masked men in black suddenly appeared from all directions, each with extraordinary skills. This group of people held crescent scimitars, and they rushed towards Li Ling and the others like dark ghosts.

Li Ling's personal soldiers fought with this group of men in black whose origins were unknown, and they fought until it was dark before throwing them off.

King Jin curled up in the car in fright, because he was protected by Li Ling, but he was not injured at all.

After reaching a safe place, Li Ling invited King Jin to get out of the car. When King Jin got out of the car, he pulled Li Ling and shouted, "Cousin, do you see that? This group of people is clearly sent by the princeling party. Want our lives."

Naturally, Li Ling had already thought about the origins of this group of people. He sighed slightly and said, "They failed to succeed this time, so they will definitely not give up. They will make a comeback on the road."

King Jin was shocked when he heard this, and said, "What should we do? We don't have many people around us, if we continue to waste like this, we will die."

The news of Li Ling's recapture of the four cities has already entered Beijing first. After learning that Li Ling is about to return triumphantly, Jing Shu, who has been looking forward to it for a long time, is not happy. Instead, she has been restless these days.

After one or two years of operation, the business of Jing Shu's pharmacy finally picked up. One day, she went to the pharmacy to check the accounts and returned home in a carriage. On the way, she happened to meet Prince Zhao Bi.

Zhao Bi blatantly stopped Jing Shu's carriage, and he rode on the horse, and greeted Jing Shu through the car window: "I really didn't expect to run into my cousin here, where did she go?"

Seeing that it was Zhao Bi, Jing Shu suppressed the annoyance in her heart, and replied bluntly: "The minister's wife is out of the house to do some things, and please make way for Your Highness."

Zhao Bi was not annoyed when he heard these cold words, he smiled sullenly, and said to Jingshu in the car: "If it comes to the matter, Gu and the Duke are close relatives, why should my cousin be so cautious? I have a few words that I want to say to my cousin in person, and please ask my cousin to open the window."

For the crown prince, Zhao Bigui not only blocked the carriages and horses of the courtiers' families in the street, but also made such an exaggerated request. Jing Shu gritted her silver teeth with hatred and said coldly: "If you don't see the minister's wife, it's too polite! I hope your highness will show some respect."

Zhao Bi laughed when he heard this, and said to the carriage: "'What a gentleman you don't see your wife', cousin, if my cousin can't come back this time, then you are not a wife of a minister. You beautiful woman, what excuse do you have to not see Gu."

When Jing Shu heard this, she felt a "thump" in her heart.

What does Zhao Bi mean by this?What happened to Li Ling?
"Go home!" Jing Shu instructed the coachman, ignoring Zhao Bi who was openly provoking.

Cars and horses were driving around, but Jing Shu's heart was very restless.A few days ago, Jingshu had received a letter from Li Ling's triumphant return, and knew that Li Ling should be on his way back at this moment.

The princelings hated King Jin to the bone, so would they play tricks on King Li Ling's return to Beijing?

Although Zhao Bi was an arrogant person, what he just said was definitely not nonsense.

After returning to the mansion, Jing Shu called Ling Xiao and ordered him to ask someone to go to the palace to inquire about the news.

Ziyun followed Jingshu all the time, and she heard Zhao Bi's words just now. After Ling Xiao left, Ziyun tentatively asked Jingshu, "Do you want someone to send a message to His Royal Highness, Your Highness?" return."

The eldest princess and Lord Zhen Guo traveled to the south, but they are not in Beijing.

If the eldest princess is here, it will be convenient to finish the job, but now it is beyond the reach of the whip.

Jing Shu shook her head, and replied, "Let's wait for Ling Xiao to inquire about the news first."

If Li Ling and King Jin really had an accident on the way, then the court would know about it as soon as possible. At the moment, Jing Shu only hoped that what Zhao Bi said was nothing more than his nonsense.

A courageous and resourceful person like Li Ling will definitely be able to save the day.

Jing Shu has never had such a hard time, she dare not imagine what she will do if Li Ling really never comes back.

Thinking of the worst outcome, Jing Shu was heartbroken, tears streaming down her face.

Ziyun paid less attention than Jingshu in her heart. When she saw Jingshu crying, she couldn't help getting angry, and comforted her: "Madam, don't worry, how can someone like my uncle be framed so easily, and he will definitely come back safely." of."

When Li Ling went out to fight, he had promised her that he would return to her side without a single hair. Over the years, he had never broken his promise to her.

The master and servant were worrying outside, and Ah Mu came in with Brother Xuan and Sister Bao who had just woken up from a nap.

When Sister Bao saw her mother was there, she threw herself into Jingshu's arms as usual, looked up at her mother with a smile and said, "Mother, I just dreamed that Daddy came back."

After listening to her daughter's words, Jing Shu forced a smile, reached out and touched Sister Bao's head, and comforted her, "Daddy is coming back soon."

Seeing Jingshu's strange expression, Ah Mu asked with concern, "What's the matter? But what's wrong? Or did something difficult happen?"

This matter is just based on Zhao Bi's one-sided opinion, and it is still unknown what happened. Jing Shu didn't want the whole family to follow her and get angry, so she coaxed Amu, "It's nothing serious, it's just that there are some problems with the business of the pharmacy."

When Ah Mu heard that it was a business matter, she felt relieved and blurted out, "Did the pharmacy lose money again?"

Since Jing Shu opened this pharmacy, she has often taken care of the poor, so not only did she not make any money in the past few years, but she lost a lot of money. Eminem was not suspicious of Jing Shu's excuse. Shu was worried about the pharmacy, she comforted Jing Shu and said: "If you don't make money, then you don't make it. You can have this kindness to help the poor, and it is also a matter of doing good deeds. God is watching, and you will definitely get it." Well rewarded."

E'Mu's unintentional words gave Jingshu a little comfort at the moment.

She Shen Jingshu has always been kind, God will never let her endure such a cruel thing.

Finally, Ling Xiao, who went out to inquire about the news, returned, but brought back a very bad news.

This afternoon, Ming Emperor's favorite concubine Meng Guifei suddenly fainted. After Jin Wangfei entered the palace to visit her mother-in-law, she never came out again.

Although there was no news of Li Ling and Jin Wang's accident, but Jin Wang's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are like this, it must be something bad.
