Chapter 174: Snow Without a Trace, Night Like a Knife
There was a haze in front of him, his body moved, and he found that there was a soft breathing sound on his cheeks, and he turned his head sideways, and under the dim candlelight, Zheng Chexuan was lying on the head of the bed, his head was pillowed with himself, and he was sleeping.
My head hurts, how long have I been asleep?My whole body was sore, my arms were struggling to prop myself up, and I saw Xianyi leaning against the railing of the bed, and she was also drowsy.
With a hint of warmth in the room, Flawless shook his head and called softly, "Xianyi!"
The man at the head of the bed woke up with a movement.
"Flawless, are you awake, thirsty or what's wrong? I'll pour you water. β
"How long have I been asleep?"
Zheng Chexuan turned around and poured a cup of hot water, carefully supported Wufang and said: "It's been a day and a night, I have a high fever, Xian Yi has been taking care of it all day, and she won't let her go to sleep, she will just fall asleep." β
I've slept for so long!
"Is there any news for Mo Cen You?"
"No news has come yet. Feeling better, the clothes have been bought, change them, and I'm in a cold sweat, I'll ask Xiao Er to send some food. β
"Prince, I'm not hungry. Flawless stopped the man and said, "There is no taste in the mouth, it's getting late, so you don't have to be so busy." β
Zheng Chexuan stopped his steps and turned around and said, "Don't bother, it's not easy for me to see you again, stay by your side again, no matter what you want me to do, I'm willing." β
Hearing him speak like this, Wufang suddenly stopped talking, knowing that there was no way to avoid it this time, so he had to listen to the two of them, Xian Yi's body shook and woke up.
"Childe is awake? I'm going to order something to eat. β
"No need, the prince has already gone. Flawless stood up, finding that his whole body was weak, Xian Yi saw that his clothes were still wet, and hurriedly took the clothes placed on the table, and said, "The clean clothes are ready, Childe should change them." After speaking, he helped Flawless undress and spread out his clothes, but he was suddenly shocked.
The child's neck and collarbone are all scars.
"Why did Childe get hurt?" As soon as he finished asking, he suddenly reacted, Xian Yi bit his lip, lowered his eyes and said: "When will Childe get rid of this entanglement, but I don't know what happened to these people, obviously Childe is a man, why are they bullying you like this." β
Flawless listened to what she said, and understood that there were clear traces of Xiao Junmo's violation on her body, so she didn't make a sound, and only let Xianyi help her change her clothes and put on a warm and light fur suit, because Zheng Chexuan had already noticed the traces on her flawless neck, so she deliberately looked for a robe with a collar, and the neckline with fine velvet tightly tied her slender neck to avoid flawless embarrassment.
"The prince is really careful. Xian Yi subconsciously said, Flawless just quietly, waiting for the clothes to be dressed, went to the table and sat down, thinking that Mo Cen You had not yet been found, and he was afraid that something would happen, he was anxious, and he was about to wait for the prince to come and ask for the direction, and he went to see it again, but he heard a knock on the door, Zheng Chexuan appeared outside the door again, but did not hold the food, but with a solemn face, Flawless's heart trembled, stood up and said, "What's the matter?"
"There was a fire in Heiwado just now, and Ghost Wing said that he had fought with someone, and the people who came rushed directly to that place, and when they arrived, they lit a fire and left, and that place is now only in ruins. β
Stumbling under his feet, Flawless felt dizziness in his head, and Xian Yi hurriedly supported him and said, "Childe be careful." β
"Go and see. Flawless pushed away Xian Yi and went straight to the door, Zheng Chexuan grabbed his arm and said: "That place is in chaos now, and I don't know who the person who lit the fire is, I don't think Xiao Junmo's movements should be so fast, because the ferry from Puzhou to Yanjing has been completely blocked today, if you want to get here by land, you won't be able to get it tonight." β
"So, those people will only be Yan King's people!" Flawless took a deep breath.
"This is King Yan's sphere of influence, if he wants to do something, we are not sure that he will be able to retreat with his whole body, so we can't act rashly now. β
Flawless was anxious, he didn't know where the thing he was looking for was, whether it would be in the burned peace hall, if so, then Mo Yan would not lose his life in vain.
Stretched out his hand and took the hosta from his head, and among the golden wires that clasped the glass, there was also an item, Mo Yan's jade wrench!
Pulling the gold wire apart, he took out the jade wrench, put it between his big fingers, and sat on the stool without flawlessness, falling into deep thought.
Seeing his melancholy face, Zheng Chexuan said: "Xianyi, go and see if it's okay to eat, let the son eat first, and let's slowly figure out a way for the rest." β
"King Yan blocked the river, he must know that we have entered Yanjing and want to cut off our support, prince, flawless will affect you. Flawless looked at Zheng Chexuan with an apologetic face, and Zheng Chexuan's heart moved. This thing is a bit wrong, Zheng Yunqian has been fighting with himself for many years, if he is alone at the moment, it is not strange for him to behave like this, but Flawless is also there, although his affection for Flawless is deeply buried, and he doesn't even know Flawless himself, but he will never treat Flawless like this.
"I'm not afraid of being affected by you, but I'm afraid that you won't. Zheng Chexuan smiled at the corner of his lips and sat down in front of Flawless.
"If the account book can be obtained this time, King Anyi's intention to rebel will definitely become an iron case, for so many years, the reason why the emperor tolerated him, in addition to the fact that there are many of his henchmen in the court, is also due to the lack of ironclad evidence, I think this account book should not only be so simple as money exchanges, but I am afraid that many people will be implicated at that time, prince, are you ready for this?"
"You once said that you should take precautions, so over the years, in addition to developing the power in my hands, I have also placed people into various local armies, even if it is Huai'an, the fief of King Anyi, there are my people, if he dares to rebel, I will respond as soon as possible, and I will not rush before the battle. β
"That's very good. Flawless nodded approvingly, and said: "It must not be possible to see the sword light and blood, but if you can control the scope, it will be a merit for the community and the people, and the prince is already very stable in doing things, and he is flawless." β
"Childe, come and eat, it's been a day and a night, and my stomach is empty again, and it hurts again. Xianyi came in with a small plate, flawless and unappetizing, but ate a bowl helplessly under the uncompromising gaze of the two men.
As soon as he put down the bowl, he heard a commotion from the inn, and the three of them turned around suddenly, hearing that the voice was wrong, Zheng Chexuan pulled it flawlessly and said, "You go with Xianyi first, I'll take a look." β
Flawless grabbed him and said: "This is the fiefdom of King Yan, the safety of the prince is more important than Flawless, the prince will go first, and Flawless will come later." β
Seeing the two pushing, Xian Yi drew his long sword and said, "Neither of the two masters can make a mistake, you go, Xian Yi and the ghost wing will break off." β
As he spoke, Ghost Wing had already rushed up the stairs with a brisk stride, and said, "The prince and the prince will go first, let's stop them first." After speaking, he pushed the two of them and said: "Zixu Lang has arrived outside the door, our backup has not yet arrived, I am afraid that it will be difficult to defeat the shadow stab of King Yan, go quickly!"
Zheng Chexuan suddenly approached the ghost wing, and said in his ear: "Find a way to see King Yan!"
Ghost Wing was stunned for a moment, Zheng Chexuan had already turned around and pulled Flawless away, and Ghost Wing carefully pondered the meaning of what the prince said.
Find a way to meet King Yan? Could it be that the prince suspects that Zi Xu Lang is making decisions without permission, and King Yan doesn't even know about it?!
Zi Xu Lang had already led his troops to break in, and Ghost Wing saw that his men had been killed and injured countless times, Zi Xu Lang stood downstairs and raised his eyebrows and said: "Ghost Wing, where is His Royal Highness the Prince? β
"Zixu is really good at laughing, we are all just obeying the master's orders, how can the master's whereabouts be known, just like His Royal Highness King Yan, since he is here to see the prince, why don't you see His Royal Highness come in person. β
"Hmph. Zi Xu Lang sneered and said: "This is the fief of His Royal Highness King Yan, naturally it should be the prince who goes to visit the master, don't talk nonsense, either hand over the prince, or leave your head." β
Sure enough, as the prince expected, it seemed that Zixu Lang came to get people on his own initiative, and Ghost Yi raised his eyebrows and said: "The prince and the prince went to enjoy the snow scene, if Zixu wants to see the prince, you might as well wait here." β
Before the words fell, listening to the chant of the long sword dragon, Zixu Lang had already risen from the ground and attacked directly.
"Xianyi be careful!" Ghost Wing reminded loudly, facing the battle, one of them has profound martial arts, and the other is very good, and it is difficult to distinguish between entanglements, Ghost Wing intends to contain Zi Xu Lang, not to fight hard, but to take him up and down, Zi Xu Lang chased for a while, knowing that he deliberately delayed time, a roundabout threw him away, and went straight to Xian Yi.
Seeing Zi Xu Lang's long sword coming, Xian Yi's body retreated, she knew that the ghost wing deliberately delayed time, so she didn't go to the battle head-on, Zi Xu Lang's heart was on fire, and there was no room left, she stretched out her hand to probe, and a fluorescence in the snow light lit up everyone's eyes.
"Moonlit Night! Xianyi be careful!" Ghost Wing flew towards Xianyi, pushing her body hard, the fluorescence shot out of Zixu Lang's hand, and spun around at great speed, crossing a dazzling arc in the air, Ghost Wing pushed Xianyi away, and he couldn't dodge, and was slashed by the fluorescent body, and blood burst out immediately.
"Ghost Wingβ"
"Let's goβ" Ghost Wing shouted to stop Xianyi, who bit her lips and turned back and jumped into the snow.
The moonlit night followed the trajectory and returned to Zixu Lang's hands, Zi Xu Lang raised his eyes and said, "Take it back!"
Ghost Wing didn't struggle, and let the others tie their hands behind their backs and take them away from the inn.
Zi Xu Lang wiped away the blood stains on the moonlit night, and the prince must have gone away, so he should first find out what the purpose of the two people came here. Mo Cenyou of Pinghetang used to be a servant of the Mo family in Puzhou, and left Puzhou a few years ago to settle down in Yanjing, he ran a pharmacy, and he had nothing to do with the Mo family on the surface, but why did the Mo family go to Pinghetang immediately to find someone as soon as the Mo family was in trouble, and it was precisely because of this that he let people set fire to the shop, no matter what their purpose was, they must not let them get anything in this Yanjing City!
The defenders on the official road came with the news that King An Yi led people straight to Yanjing City, followed by him, as well as the Praetorian Guards in the hands of the prince, even Fu Yueyan appeared, Sima Yi's people are also rushing here, what is it that attracts everyone to come regardless of a qiΔ, the answer must be on that person, if it were not for him, the prince would not have led troops to the fiefdom of King Yan so rashly.
What kind of person are you, you can attract so many people to fight for you, I really don't understand, what's so good about you?!
