Chapter 55: He's Better Looking Than This King?
The next day, Xiahou Yichen ordered someone to tie Liang Wenzhi's body to the city gate of Yanli to show the public, and at the same time rescue and resettle the people, it solved the hidden danger of this fish and flesh people, which has to be said to be a very happy thing. The onlookers were excited, and the resentment that was suddenly released from the oppression was out of control, even though Liang Wenzhi was dead, he was still spurned and smashed rotten eggs all over his body, venting their long-standing grievances.
Waiting for everyone to get out of the rage, everyone gathered in front of the house where Xiahou Yichen lived.
"The people of the Quartet of the old and decayed generations thanked the prince for his reconstruction. The first to take the lead was a thin old man who was over the age of six, kneeling and kowtowing tremblingly, and for a while he was in tears.
"Thank you for your reconstruction. ”
"The great kindness of the prince, we will never forget. ”
"The prince is our great benefactor, and we are willing to be cattle and horses to repay our great kindness. ”
The people behind also knelt on the ground, and the black group of people spoke their most sincere words of gratitude in their hearts.
Most of them are simple families who have lived here for generations. Although the original life was not rich, it was also free. But since Liang Wenzhi took over Yanli, he bullied men and women, seized farmland, and even collected all kinds of high taxes from them in the name of the imperial court on weekdays to enrich his own pockets. This evil act oppressed them unspeakably and caused them to suffer, and many families were ruined. It was also because of his excessive oppression that the people were starved and displaced, so that when famine and plague struck, they could only sit and wait for death.
Now that the disaster has been lifted and the corrupt officials have been duly punished, how can they not be happy. If it weren't for the emperor's grace, if it weren't for the prince's thousands of miles of travel, there would be no current them, and Yanli would have been a dead city long ago.
Thinking of this, the kneeling people kowtowed more and more. The respectful face was full of excitement.
"What's going on outside?" Lin Xiaoyou stood in the courtyard, looking curiously at the noisy doorway.
Duoduo smiled: "It's okay, it's just a group of people who came to thank you." The prince saved them from suffering and punished corrupt officials for them, so it is no wonder that they were excited to come to the door to thank the emperor. ”
Lin Xiaoyou nodded, yes, counting the days, they have been out for more than two months. In the past two months, it seems that she has been torn between life and death, first applying medicine to porridge and rescuing the people, and then Xiahou Yichen was poisoned, seeking an antidote, and she was so busy that she was dizzy. If she hadn't experienced the pain and anxiety herself, she really couldn't describe it in words.
I took a long breath and exhaled the depression in my heart, which seemed to be relieved and relieved. As soon as something bad happens, let it end with Liang Wenzhi's death, and this thrilling disaster relief trip has finally completed its mission successfully. I don't know if Sister Lan and Xiangqing are okay at home? Where are the master and senior brother?
"Childe, I'll go over and see if there's anything I need help with!" Duoduo said positively.
"Go ahead. Lin Xiaoyou came back to his senses and nodded with a smile. Forget it, many things are still good to go with the flow, the plan can't catch up with the changes, and strive to end this grievance as soon as possible, and then she can go to the master and brother justifiably. Waiting for the flowers to pass, she turned around and walked towards Xiahou Yichen's house.
Before he could take a few steps, Leng Xuran's inquiry came out, "I received an urgent letter from the flying pigeon, and I will rush back tomorrow." ”
"Oh, if you don't want the medicine, you're leaving?" Xiahou Yichen's narrow phoenix eyes squinted at him and asked casually.
He doesn't want it? The question is, has the 'Baiqingcao' been found? There is a solution in front of him, and if someone doesn't want to, what can he do. If he hadn't counted on Xiahou Yichen to help him find it, would he be so angry. "It's not that you don't know the current situation, and countless eyes are staring at us to leak out, trying to worsen the relations between our two countries and provoke war between our two countries. If I can bring my own people to find medicine, why should I come to you for help? ”
The corners of Xiahou Yichen's eyebrows raised slightly, and he looked at Leng Xuran scrutinically and said, "Then what?" The gentle and harmless smile made people look like he was really waiting for Leng Xuran very seriously.
Leng Xuran was stunned, automatically ignored the danger of hiding the knife in the smile, and replied innocently with the same handsome smile: "Then wait for the Ming and Fan to find the 'Baiqing Grass', you will send someone to send it to me." Then, you see if it's time for you to take this thing back. As he spoke, he took out the "Soul Chasing Order" from his bosom that made him not eat well and sleep well.
Xiahou Yichen glanced at the 'Soul Chasing Order' shallowly, and suddenly smiled again, and the dark light in his eyes flickered. "This king thinks, there shouldn't be a third person who knows about this matter, right?" At that moment just now, he kept thinking that if Leng Xuran dared to fight Lin Xiaoyu's idea again, he would definitely let him gain more than he gained. Fortunately, he dispelled the thought in his heart in time, otherwise he would have suffered hardship.
He knew how grim the current situation was, but he couldn't just because Lin Xiaoyu's blood was useful, they had to keep asking for it, and she had to contribute it for free. A manly man, he has something to do, he doesn't do something, he dares to act, and he can't push a weak woman to solve it. Besides, Lin Xiaoyu had already suffered a great loss of vitality in order to save him and the people of Yanli before, and he couldn't push her out selfishly.
When is it, don't forget to remind yourself, don't think about the idea of beating Lin Xiaoyou behind his back, looking at Xiahou Yichen's attitude, it is clear that he has no intention of retracting the 'soul chasing order'. I think he must be worried that he will make small moves in secret, and the 'Soul Chaser' is a warning.
Are you such a heartless person, Leng Xuran glanced at him weakly. If it was true, he would have taken advantage of Lin Xiaoyu's favors to him and made that request. It is precisely because of her physical reasons that she has dragged on until now, otherwise how could it be Xiahou Yichen's turn to be arrogant in front of him. Laughing, "What if, I mean, if a third person knows?"
"Actually, you might as well give it a try. Xiahou Yichen took a sip of tea, and the smile flashing in his eyes contained a different kind of deep meaning, which was a kind of **, and a kind of determined look.
That's right, it's **, obviously jealous that he secretly asked Lin Xiaoyu for blood, and he wanted to deliberately lure him to commit a crime, but his calm demeanor was sure that he wouldn't do that. I have to admit that Xiahou Yichen is simply a contradictory combination, even if the two have been friends for so many years, he still can't see through his hidden nature.
"Just try it, this son will still visit your mansion one day to see what kind of Nine Heavens Fairy your princess is, so that she can endure such a sinister and cunning guy as you. Leng Xuran raised his eyebrows, pretended to be dissatisfied and got up and walked out, and before he reached the door, he felt a chill on his back. turned around and met Xiahou Yichen's glass-clear eyes, and he was staring at him with a cold smile.
"There's nothing to look at, even if she's an ugly bastard, it's better than the vulgar fan you fancie. ”
"Hahahaha, in that case, then I should go and take a look. Leng Xuran met the gaze that was about to eat people, and continued to add fuel to the fire without fear of death. Isn't it just a woman, Xiahou Yichen doesn't let him see it, he just wants to see it. And I have to bring a group of beauties to send him over, so that he can see what a real beauty is. The tiger is not powerful, and he really thinks he is a sick cat.
Lin Xiaoyou unconsciously touched her cheeks, is she so bad? Xiahou Yichen is that scoundrel, he is the ugly monster, relying on his own appearance, he dares to slander her so much in front of outsiders.
Forget it, Leng Gongzi is leaving, let's give him the things as much as possible. Thinking about it, she couldn't help but raise her right hand and look deeply at the fist-sized porcelain bottle in her hand. Originally, he still owed Leng Gongzi a favor, and he wanted to use the opportunity to send blood to erase it, but Leng Gongzi just didn't speak, it was really cheap for him.
"Why doesn't Childe go in?" Nan Ze, who came in in a hurry, looked at Lin Xiaoyu who was contemplative, and asked curiously.
Suddenly hearing the voice, Lin Xiaoyu was excited, and the moment he turned around, he hurriedly shrank his hand behind his back, hid it under the wide sleeves, made a posture of standing with his hands in his hands, and said with a smile: "It's okay, just walk around!"
"Childe is not feeling well, why does he not look good?"
"No, you also know that I am an idler, eat well, sleep well, how can I have a bad face. ”
Nan Ze nodded, thinking that it was because of her before, her body had not yet recovered, but she didn't think much about it, and quickly entered the house.
Lin Xiaoyou saw that he didn't dig deeper, and he was secretly relieved in his heart. She secretly released some blood behind Xiahou Yichen's back, which was something that even Duoduo kept in the dark. In order to prevent being discovered, after bloodletting, he immediately put on makeup to hide his pale and godless face. Unexpectedly, the people under Xiahou Yichen were all human spirits, and their vicious eyes almost saw through her disguise.
"Master, the people outside are gathered outside the door, and they all want to thank you in person," Nan Ze reported respectfully as he entered the house.
Xiahou Yichen waved his hand and said indifferently: "Let them all withdraw, King Xie is not as good as Brother Xie Huang." ”
"Yes. After Nan Ze responded, he asked hesitantly: "What should Liang Wenzhi's family do?"
"Directly distribute to the border gates, the men are in the army, the women are prostitutes, and they are slaves in eternal life. When the king returns to Dragon Studios, he will report to the royal brother. Xiahou Yichen's casual attitude did not have the slightest sympathy. The reason why they were spared a few lives was just to repay Liang Wenzhi's sins. Otherwise, with these sins of his, it is not too much to raid the family and destroy the nine clans.
Nan Ze led the order to retreat, and when he passed by Lin Xiaoyu, who was still waiting outside, because of her disguised identity, she simply nodded and left quickly.
"Xiaoyou is here, do you have anything to eat for my son?" Leng Xu then went out on his heels, and when he saw Lin Xiaoyou standing in the courtyard, he rushed to her with an arrow step that squeezed his eyebrows, and asked expectantly.
Saying it so loudly, Xiahou Yichen must have known that she was coming, remembering that he had just said that he was ugly, Lin Xiaoyou suddenly had an idea of revenge in his heart. Deliberately approached Leng Xuran and asked in a low voice, "Is Leng Gongzi leaving?"
Leng Xuran smiled, "Yes, if you are reluctant to say this son, I can ask Chen for you to go with me, how about it, this son is interesting enough." His tone was full of smug laughter, and he reached out to pat her on the shoulder.
Lin Xiaoyou blinked his bright and transparent eyes, turned sideways slightly and avoided Leng Xuran's outstretched hand in the air without a trace, and said in a low voice: "Then I owe Leng Gongzi your favor, have you thought about how to let me pay it back?"
Leng Xuran was stunned for a moment, met her inquiring gaze, pouted unhappily, and still said the same sentence, "I didn't think about it, I thought of suing you." Having said that, he complained sullenly in his heart: damn Xiahou Yichen, it's all his fault.
"What are you talking about?" At this moment, a bright and pleasant voice came, Xiahou Yichen's long figure was wrapped around his arms, leaning lazily on the door frame, his long black hair was only tied up obliquely with a jasper hairpin, his lips were red and moist, and his phoenix eyes were mysterious. He leaned there quietly, obviously not doing anything, and the calm and idle attitude that was unintentionally revealed made people feel radiant and burnt eyes. It seems that compared to Leng Gongzi's innocent expression, it is even more breathless.
Sure enough, she knew that in order to prevent Leng Xuran from being alone with her in private, Xiahou Yichen would definitely come out to find out what they said. Hmph, call you a bully, and see how Miss Ben cleans you up. Lin Xiaoyou thought viciously in his heart, retracted his gaze with a smile, and said, "It's nothing, I'm just discussing with Leng Gongzi, which of you is more beautiful and better-looking." After speaking, he deliberately accentuated the sound of 'only'.
"Needless to say, this son's ** suave, Yushu is in the wind, but everyone can see it, even if the blind can't see it, they can smell it. Leng Xuran threw his eyes away, and immediately helped Lin Xiaoyou to cover up. Then he put his head high in a pose that he thought he was very handsome, with a confident and narcissistic expression on his face.
Beautiful, good-looking, it's all words to describe a woman. Xiahou Yichen's eyes flashed, and he recovered for a moment. He was most impatient in his life for others to talk about his appearance, but at this moment, these words came out of Lin Xiaoyu's mouth, and it seemed so natural. Even he didn't know why he wasn't angry, but asked for the answer naively. "Oh, did you discuss the results?" the focused expression faintly expected her answer.
"Well, I watched it for a long time, of course it was ....... Lin Xiaoyou's sly eyes swirled back and forth between the two, and he began to whet people's appetites after saying half a sentence.
The eyes of the two fell directly on her, quietly waiting for the answer, but Lin Xiaoyou didn't say it halfway through, which made the two of them feel upset and upset. Everyone has a love for beauty, let alone two arrogant people. Leng Xuran didn't say anything, he was originally an extremely stinky and beautiful person, Xiahou Yichen was different, it was precisely because he hated that others looked at his obsessive appearance, so when he met Lin Xiaoyou, who had clear eyes, a subtle feeling suddenly rose in his heart.
"You mean, who of us is better-looking. After listening to it for a long time, and couldn't wait for an answer for a long time, Leng Xuran felt like there were thousands of ants crawling in his heart, and he couldn't hold his breath and asked first.
The gaze from the corner of Lin Xiaoyou's eyes swept over Xiahou Yichen intentionally or unintentionally, and said with a slow smile: "Of course it is...... My brother. ”
"Hahahaha, Xiaoyu, righteous enough. Leng Xuran didn't react for a while, thinking that it was him, and immediately laughed happily. It's just that I didn't laugh twice, and immediately realized the existence of the problem. No, isn't it a comparison between him and Xiahou Yichen, when did he become a senior brother? I couldn't help but ask suspiciously: "Senior brother, who is your senior brother?"
Lin Xiaoyou raised his eyebrows and said proudly: "You don't know it, my senior brother Lin Xiaoyu, no matter how far or near you look, he is the real beautiful man in the world." ”
"Lin Xiaoyu, is he your senior brother?" Leng Xuran exclaimed in disbelief, almost not jumping up.
Seeing his big reaction, Lin Xiaoyou glanced at him disdainfully, "What, do you know?"
The corners of Leng Xuran's mouth twitched, and he was about to speak, when he suddenly came into contact with Xiahou Yichen's meaningful eyes, with a slight warning that he was going to be temporarily executed, and his back suddenly cooled. Innocently touched his nose, pretended to be casual, and swallowed what he wanted to say back into his stomach.
"He doesn't know, Leng Gongzi has been in Yueyin Kingdom, how can he know your senior brother. Xiahou Yichen suddenly spoke.
Leng Xuran, who reacted, shouted angrily: "That's not right, obviously selected from us, how did you become your senior brother again?"
"Really don't think about it?" Xiahou Yichen thought for a moment before he said slowly.
"What is there to consider, in short, all in all, my senior brother is the best-looking person in my heart. Lin Xiaoyou argued confidently, not thinking that he had chosen the wrong one.
"You, you, you ......" Leng Xuran looked like he hated iron but not steel, and he was so angry that he didn't know what to say.
Xiahou Yichen's eyes were faint, flashing a strange light, he was not surprised by this result, Lin Xiaoyou must have heard the previous words, and deliberately said this to retaliate against him. This is very similar to him, not the one who suffers.
But knowing that she did it on purpose, she still felt very uncomfortable and uncomfortable. Xiahou Yichen slowly smiled, and said with a deep expression: "He, better looking than this king?"
