In the southeast of the Three Imperial City, in the inconspicuous courtyard, the lights were beating, and a dinner was not sumptuous, but it was eaten for nearly half an hour.

Outside the courtyard gate, Ning Chen also waited quietly for half an hour, without crossing half a step.

In the small courtyard, after the two had dinner, the woman got up and began to clean up the table.

Xuan Mo looked at his wife in front of him and said softly, "A guest is here." ”

When the woman heard this, her face was surprised, her eyes looked outside the small courtyard, and she wondered, "Is anyone still coming at such a late hour?"

"It's His Royal Highness the Thirteenth, there may be something. Xuan Mo got up and replied.

"Thirteenth Prince, then go and open the door, don't let His Highness wait for a long time. The woman said with a look of urgency.

"Hmm"

Xuan Mo nodded and walked towards the outside of the house.

Outside the small courtyard, Ning Chen saw Xuanmo coming behind the courtyard gate, his mind was restrained, and he stepped forward and knocked on the courtyard door.

After three knocks on the door, the courtyard door creaked open, and the two people who looked at each other did not have too many waves on their faces.

"Your Highness, I've been waiting for a long time, please come in. Xuan Mo said.

"It should. ”

Ning Chen replied lightly, and immediately stepped into the small courtyard.

In the courtyard, the night was slightly cool, and the woman who was cleaning up the table saw the royal prince coming and immediately saluted respectfully.

"I've seen His Highness the Thirteenth. ”

"You're welcome. ”

Ning Chen stepped forward, helped the woman up, and said with a smile, "If you come to disturb you so late, don't be surprised by your sister-in-law." ”

"Your Highness is coming, we welcome it at any time, how can we be strange. The woman said softly.

"It's cold outside, Your Highness, please inside the house. On the side, Xuan Mo spoke.

"Excuse me. ”

Ning Chen nodded and walked forward.

Inside, the lights were flickering, and the two sat down at the table, and the woman came with hot tea and placed it on the table.

"Today, can you just drink wine and not drink tea. Ning Chen looked at the Great Commander of the Forbidden Army and asked.

Xuanmo raised his hand, the woman understood, and took the tea out.

"I heard that His Royal Highness is a tea lover, how did he change his sex today. Xuan Mo said calmly.

"I've been drinking tea for two days in a row, and I'm really tired of it. Ning Chen smiled.

"Oh?"

Xuanluo looked surprised and said, "Why?"

"It's an eventful season, and I don't want to get into trouble, so I can only stay in the house to drink tea to pass the time. Ning Chen said helplessly.

Hearing this, Xuan Mo frowned slightly, and said, "Today, my subordinates also reported to me that His Highness went to the Third Prince's Mansion. ”

"It turns out that Brother Xuanmo already knows. ”

Ning Chen sighed softly and said, "I didn't want to be involved in this turmoil, but I didn't expect that I couldn't escape after all." ”

"It's not once or twice that the third prince has wooed you, why don't you delay it again and avoid this turmoil. ”

Xuan Mo said with a solemn expression, "The matter between the Marquis of Qingyuan and the King of Beizhen, even the two Demon Emperors have already suspected the third prince, at this time, you had better not get too close to him." ”

As she spoke, the woman went into the house again and brought two jars of wine, not of any precious wine, but of her own brewing, and she knew that her husband had many things to do to-morrow, so she did not take any strong wine.

The wine was put down, and the woman withdrew silently, not saying a word from beginning to end.

"It's not that I don't want to avoid it, it's that I can't avoid it. ”

Ning Chen looked at the wine jar on the table, and said with emotion, "Today, the third prince has already made it clear, if I refuse again, I will really offend His Royal Highness the prince. ”

Xuan Mo was silent, and after a while, he said, "Even if you offend the third prince, if you can stay out of the matter, I think it's worth it." ”

Ning Chen shook his head and said, "Brother Xuanmo may not know, now the contradiction between me and the eldest prince is irreconcilable, in the day I left the Primordial Demon Realm, I have encountered more than one chase, who sent it, in fact, it is already obvious, if I offend the three princes again, it will be equivalent to offending the two princes and all the imperial nobles behind them at the same time, in the future, it will be difficult for me to have a foothold in the Three Emperors City." ”

"There are nine ghost demon emperors here, who dares to touch you in the slightest. Xuan Mo said in a deep voice.

Ning Chen smiled and said, "Shizun is the emperor of the demon clan, but the father of the two princes is also the emperor of the demon clan, if the eldest prince and the third prince make trouble, it will be difficult for Shizun to intervene." ”

Hearing this, Xuan Mo fell silent again, and after a long time, he sighed lightly, "Maybe you shouldn't have joined the royal family in the first place." ”

"Maybe. ”

Ning Chen sighed with emotion, "But the matter has come to this point, it's useless to talk about these things, I came to tell Brother Xuanmo that I have promised the third prince to help him." ”

"Huh?"

Hearing the former's words, Xuan Mo's expression was slightly gloomy, and he didn't care about the difference in identity, and reprimanded in a deep voice, "Your Highness is confused, don't you see that now the third prince has been monitored by the forbidden army in disguise, and if you help him at this time, you will only make trouble for yourself." ”

"Brother Xuanmo, to tell you something from the heart, in fact, I don't think the deaths of Marquis Qingyuan and King Beizhen have anything to do with the three princes. ”

Ning Chen said with a serious expression, "If the third prince wants to get rid of the Marquis of Qingyuan and the King of Beizhen, he can use other methods, why do you have to go to such extremes and push yourself into such a passive situation." ”

"People's hearts are unpredictable, we are not the three princes, there is no way to know what he is thinking, now, all people suspect that he did these two cases of destroying the government, don't be stupid, at least, before the three princes are cleared of suspicion, don't get involved. Xuan Mo reminded earnestly again.

"I have promised him that I will do justice to him. ”

Ning Chen picked up the wine jar on the table, opened the wine seal, and said with a smile, "There are pros and cons to everything, maybe I helped him this time, and there will be unexpected gains in the future." ”

When Xuan Mo heard this, he sighed deeply, but he didn't persuade him more, took the wine jar, and said calmly, "Your Highness is a smart person, and you can understand the pros and cons better than me, since Your Highness has chosen, I won't say anything more, I hope Your Highness can really get what you want." ”

The wine jar touched, crispy and pleasant, the two raised their heads and poured a sip of water wine, the wine entered the throat, sweet and spicy, stinging.

"Brother Xuanmo. ”

Ning Chen put down the wine, looked at the women who were busy outside the house, and said softly, "In the entire imperial city, only here is Brother Xuanmo, I can experience the warmth of a home. ”

Xuan Mo moved his gaze, looked at his wife, and said, "Fame and fortune, if you take it too seriously, you will lose more important things, Your Highness, there is a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not." ”

"Brother Xuanmo doesn't hurt to say everything. Ning Chen responded.

Xuan Mo retracted his gaze, looked at the person in front of him, and said, "Your Highness is the most special person I have ever seen, so smart, it stands to reason that Your Highness should have the most happiness in the world, but what I see from Your Highness is too many regrets and unbelievables." ”

Ning Chen was silent, and after a while, he said, "Nine times out of ten, life is unsatisfactory, perhaps, I am one or two more than ordinary people." ”

Outside, when the sky was getting darker and darker, and when he was slightly drunk, Ning Chen got up to say goodbye and walked away.

In the wind, Ning Chen's body was surrounded by black mist, his plain clothes and white hair changed to black, and the wild bones started, and Huangquan was banned. Outside the Third Prince's Mansion, the forbidden army changed guards, and a team of forbidden troops left, ordering a team of forbidden troops to come.

At this moment, between heaven and earth, the wind and sand protruded, and a black-clothed figure swept by, and a ruthless blade came to kill him.

The sudden change, the forbidden army in charge of patrolling did not even have time to react, the bones sealed their throats, and blood gushed into the sky.

"There are assassins!"

One of the generals came back to his senses and immediately reminded him.

However, the divine forbidden space closed the heavens and the earth, and dozens of forbidden soldiers seemed to disappear out of thin air, and they could no longer be seen.

The dark night covered the ugliness of killing, and after a short time, the black clothes walked out and walked away.

The forbidden space of the gods spread out, and on the streets, blood stained every inch of land, scarlet and dazzling.

In the distance, in the third prince's mansion, Xuanqing, who was meditating in the hall, suddenly looked shocked, got up and looked outside the mansion.

There's gore!

Xuanqing's heart, an ominous premonition lingered, and he took one step and disappeared into the house.

Outside the mansion, Xuanqing appeared, and when he saw the amazing scene in front of him, his eyes shrank fiercely.

Trouble!

In the Twelve Princes' Mansion, the cold wind blew, and the black-clothed and black-haired figure walked over, raising his hand to brush his face, and his face suddenly changed.

The next moment, the black clothes plunged into the Twelve Princes' Mansion.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, the breath of the infinitely close to the king erupted, and the sword light slashed the monstrous demonic qi, and the eyes were full of residual red splashes, and the entire Twelve Princes' Mansion shook violently.

"Xuanqing, it turns out that everything was really done by you!"

In the prince's mansion, angry shouts came, and the protector beside the twelve princes made a move, blocking the people with all their might.

"Your Highness, go quickly!"

The protector of the Twelve Princes shouted urgently.

A moment later, an earth-shattering tremor sounded, and the entire Prince's Mansion was reduced to ashes in the battle, and a young man dressed in gorgeous clothes swept out in confusion and fled quickly.

"You can't escape!"

An indifferent voice sounded in the rear, and the sword light slashed down, shattering the earth.

"Your Highness, go!"

At this moment, the protector of the Twelve Princes swept in, blocking the front with his body, and the black knife pierced through the old man, bringing out the residual red.

After a short block, the figure of the Twelve Princes disappeared into the night.

"I hope you don't let me down. ”

Behind, the black-clothed figure didn't chase anymore and turned to leave.

In front of the Thirteenth Prince's Mansion, the black fog dissipated, and the white-haired figure walked out and walked back to the house.

"Your Highness. ”

Shiyu stepped forward and saluted.

"Prepared a cup of hot tea and drank some wine, it was a little cold. Ning Chen said with a tired expression.

"Yes. ”

Shi Yu respectfully accepted the order, doubts flashed in his eyes, but he didn't ask too much, and walked quickly towards the back of the hall.

After drinking, how can it be cold?

Puzzled in her heart, Shi Yu glanced back at the figure walking towards the main hall, for some reason, at this moment, she felt that His Royal Highness's body seemed to be not so straight.

After a while, Shiyu walked back to the hall with hot tea, poured the tea, and handed it over.

"Your Highness, if you are tired, rest after drinking tea. Shiyu said softly.

"Can't rest yet. ”..

Ning Chen took a sip of hot tea, looked outside, and said, "Shiyu, the sky will change soon." ”

When Shiyu heard this, his eyes also looked outside the hall, and he said softly, "It's really going to be winter." ”

Ning Chen silently drank all the hot tea, but the chill in his body could not be removed......
