Chapter 271: Rewarding Goodness
"Bang bang bang!~"
In the depths of the inner courtyard of the palace, a sharp knock from the door guard woke up Lu Xihua, the king of Shadu, from his sleep, he turned over and got out of bed, and walked forward to open the door, but as soon as the door opened, the guard at the door was like a fire burning into the room, and shouted at him anxiously: "Something happened to Your Majesty the King! His Majesty, the distinguished guest of the Temple of the Gods, Qingjun, has been assassinated..
"What?!"
These words suddenly woke up the king with the only remaining drowsiness, and he tugged at the guard's collar rather out of shape, and asked him, "What's the matter?! Who has such courage?
The guards were a little dazed by his strange force, and hurriedly replied: "No! Fortunately, the guards arrived in time, and His Majesty Qingjun is fine! Princess Jiujiu got the news and has rushed over first..
"Whew.."
Hearing this, the king was greatly relieved, but at this time he could not be too relieved, and after exhaling a long breath, he hurriedly explained to him: "Prepare your horses immediately! Mobilize the guards to surround the residence of the Qingjun! No one is allowed to enter or leave.. Then the king will come to ..."
Seeing this, the guard hurriedly followed, as if he had not finished speaking, and hesitated: "Your Majesty, Prince An has already ..arrived first when he gets the news."
"What?!!Why did he ?!.. so fast?"
Hearing this, the king was taken aback, paused for a moment, and hurriedly said, "Hurry! Hurry ..up."
"Yes!"
When the guards heard this, they hurriedly ran away
His Majesty the King also rushed back to the house again, but this time with a run, and as he ran, he took off his clothes...
..
"Okay, Your Highness Princess, if you have anything to say, please speak up.."
In the bright room, the three of them sat in the corner of the only table, Zhou Yihan took a cup of water, and showed some indifference to Her Royal Highness Princess Jiujiu, Sha Jia sat on the side with his hands crossed, and his face did not reveal any good face, although the truth of what Prince An said is still to be discussed, but the assassin's confession before his death was heard by the two of them
Princess Jiujiu looked worried, maybe she didn't pay attention to the difference between Zhou Yihan and the two of them treating her politely at this time, but she was just dedicated to the matter when Prince An just finished talking with him and walked out of the room, and asked: "Your Majesty Qingjun, I heard that an assassin assassinated you, so I rushed over, you..." I don't think I'm hurt?.."
"Huh.."
Zhou Yihan turned his head and smiled, his eyes flashed, and he replied: "It's okay.. A few little thieves can't take my Zhou Yihan's life, the mastermind behind this scene is really bold, but he can hide the eyes of thousands of soldiers in Shadu City, I am afraid that the power of this group of people must be extraordinary. Right, Your Highness the Princess."
As the words blurted out, Zhou Yihan slowly turned his head to look at Jiujiu, being watched by his strange eyes, Princess Jiujiu suddenly felt uncomfortable, especially at the moment when she listened to his last question, she felt a chill down her spine, and there seemed to be a cold wind on the back of her neck
"Green .. Under the crown of the green monarch.."
I looked at him for a long time for some unknown reason, and the heart in my chest had set off a monstrous wave at some point!
Her gaze unconsciously turned away, and instead fell on the terrifying face of Shaga's gloomy face, although it was also the first time she saw Shaga's face under the hat, but the negative emotions that had always been full of her young and immature face seemed to make her understand...
Princess Jiujiu bit her lip with remorse, and after a long time, she asked softly again: "Your Majesty Qingjun..." Excuse me.. Didn't Uncle An tell you something just now?.."
The answer was yes, and she gave herself an answer the moment she spoke..
Zhou Yihan did not answer the question she gave directly, but asked rhetorically: "What should he say?.. Her Royal Highness the Princess.."
..
The picture seems to be still at this moment, the atmosphere is dull and weird, the hands of the princess on her lap are unconsciously clenched, only to feel that her throat is hot and unbearable, she picks up the kettle and cup on the table and pours water for herself, and drinks three glasses in a row before the dry and hot feeling of suffering in her throat is suppressed
Putting down the water glass, she seemed to have returned to normal, wiped the water stains from the corners of her lips with the crook of her fingers, and then spoke again: "Two... I don't know why you're doing this to me all of a sudden, but I think... There must be some misunderstanding between us.."
"There is no misunderstanding.."
If so, Zhou Yihan suddenly opened his mouth and said: "What I see is what I have personally experienced... For those who want to take my life, you think I'm going to be misunderstood?.."
When it came to the last question, Zhou Yihan turned his head and looked at Princess Jiujiu, after speaking, he looked away from his eyes again, got up, walked towards the bed, and said without looking back: "Okay, the night is dark, if Her Royal Highness the princess has nothing to do, please go back, this seat still needs to repair the bed, so I won't send you."
“.. I beg your pardon for taking the liberty of interrupting me for a long time."
Seeing that he had issued an order to expel guests, Her Royal Highness the Princess could only retire...
Passing through the main gate, he happened to meet the king who was late, and the princess took him out of the door with him.
After going out, the two of them and their attendants walked back all the way, the king and the princess Jiujiu were in front, and the others were following behind them, a little farther away from them, the king saw this, and asked in a whisper in her ear?..: "What's the matter?"
It's just that when she heard this, Princess Jiujiu pursed her lips and shook her head, and then said, "Let's go back first."
..
Shadu, the hinterland of the royal family, the prince's palace
In the dark study, two black shadows in front of the table and behind the table, Prince An leaned on the back of the chair with his face propped up, and a red-light headphone hung on one of his ears, and there was a noisy sound of "rustling" in the earphones, but he could barely hear the content.
“.. There is no misunderstanding.. What I see is what I have personally experienced... I will never be mistaken about anyone who wants to take my life... All right.. Her Royal Highness the Princess.. If nothing happens... Please go back.."
..
"Hmph. Isn't it a big deal for the Qingjun of the Temple of the Gods?"
A sneer seemed to pass through the corner of Prince An's mouth, and he took off the earphones on his ears and threw them on the table at will.
"You did a good job this time, if you hadn't sealed the dead man's mouth in time, I'm afraid I would have had such a good chance... Say what you want.."
Prince An looked at the table, the butler was happy, and suddenly stepped forward, hammered his chest and said: "It is the blessing of the villain to be able to serve the prince, the villain has nothing else to ask for, I only hope that the lord can keep the agreement, and if you give the villain an official position after you ascend the throne, the villain will be satisfied."
Prince An replied: "Don't worry.. I will keep my promises... As long as you follow me with all your heart, do things for me, and bring this king to the throne, the position of Shadu Deacon will be yours."
When the housekeeper heard this, he suddenly felt overjoyed, and hurriedly hammered his chest again and bowed down to thank him, and after Prince An nodded at him, he waved his hand to let him go down.
With the butler's exit, he was the only one left in the dark room, Prince An slid the match and lit the pipe, and under the faint flame of the match, there was a dark figure lying on the bed in the corner of the room.
"Whew~"
The pipe was lit, the match was extinguished, and Prince Ann slowly took a puff of smoke, as if talking to himself, and the sporadic light of the pipe echoed in the dark room.
"I didn't expect this so-called Qingjun of the Temple of the Gods to be a real guy... This is really a God-given opportunity for me... My stupid brother... I'll do it for you."
Prince Ann paced out the door...
