Chapter 47: Detoxification
When night falls, the residual breeze blows slowly, with a trace of coolness and refreshing.
"Master!" Bei Ming looked at the figure by the window worriedly. It's been two days, and the master has been looking for them for two days, but there is still no news from the princess, and his own physical condition is getting worse every day.
The candles in the room were flickering, and Xiahou Youchen stood proudly at the window. At this moment, he couldn't tell what mood he was in. It can be said that from the very beginning of contact, he actually saw through the stubbornness hidden in Lin Xiaoyu's smart nature at a glance, but he didn't know that it was so resolute.
"Master, actually, -----" Bei Ming frowned and opened his mouth hesitantly, thinking about what to say.
"You also think she won't do this?" As if knowing what he was going to say, Xiahou Yichen took the conversation lightly. The thin lips are slightly pursed, elegant and seductive, with a shallow smile, which makes it impossible to tell whether it is anger or joy.
Lin Xiaoyu's appearance in Yan Li, everyone can see it, even he has to admire this princess for three points. It's just that the relationship with Lin Xiaoyu is involved, and I can't bear it in my heart, but I don't dare to make a conclusion. If he defends her at this moment, it is tantamount to slapping the master in the face and pointing out his fault.
Beiming, who realized this, hurriedly knelt down, and said in a cold voice with a thick helplessness: "The master forgives the sins, and the subordinates are just in a hurry, and they are not thoughtful." ”
Xiahou Yichen slowly turned around and looked back at him, the depth of his eyes was unpredictable, and the smile on the corner of his mouth suddenly deepened a little. "The king did not doubt her, it was just a simple temptation. ”
Temptation! Bei Ming raised his head, and there was a look of astonishment in his eyes. If there is no doubt, how can we be tempted?
"If she had the heart to do it, she would have had a lot of opportunities before, so why wait until now. The reason why she wanted to test it was just to see what she could do for herself without knowing that she was being used. However," Xiahou Yichen explained casually, and when he said that, his expression suddenly changed, and the smile on his face instantly turned cold: "Ming, do you know what you are doing wrong?"
Beiming was stunned, and the whole person was speechless. It's not that he doesn't know what the conspiracy turmoil in the court means to a woman who grew up in a simple environment? If she doesn't have a strong sense of self-protection, how cruel it will be.
And now, people have lost it, and they have to admit that it was his dereliction of duty, just because of his momentary negligence, which not only put the princess in an unknown danger, but also made their situation very passive. If nothing happens, if something happens, it will be impossible to escape the blame for death, and it is no wonder that it will make the people in front of you unhappy.
Xiahou Yichen looked at the silent person on the ground with an indifferent expression, and did not call him up. In the eyes of others, Bei Ming is just his guard, but in front of him, they are brothers who are not separated from each other. and never doubted his loyalty and ability.
But now, when I think of the stubborn Qianying who ran away to find medicine for him, I can't stop the anger in my heart, he has never been moody in front of people, but the love in his heart was out of control for a while. I just had to turn the whole Yanli and all the mountains upside down.
"Are you going to kneel for the rest of your life? Ze should be about the same, transfer their people over and continue to look for them. Knowing that he listened, Xiahou Yichen didn't want to say anything, nothing was more important at this moment than finding someone.
"Yes. Bei Ming got up and retreated into the darkness in the blink of an eye, the guilt in his heart spread all over his body, since he was a child, he followed his master's side, his every move, even if it was just a simple expression, he could understand its meaning. For everything he explained, he tried his best to complete it perfectly. Only this time, at the moment when the master's life was at stake, he was so flustered that he didn't understand his intentions, so that he made a big mistake. It suddenly became clear to me that too rigid loyalty was not necessarily a good thing, and that if he was cautious and flexible, it would not be the case.
Xiahou Yichen still stood still, under the seemingly calm back, there was an unknown turbulence, helplessness and worry in the bottom of his heart, and he couldn't calm down for a long time. Although he is in a high position, he has no greed and nostalgia for power, and all his ambitions are just to fulfill his responsibilities that he cannot escape. The intrigues and battles he experienced since he was a child made him put life and death aside for a long time. What does it matter if he is alive, what is he afraid of death, the end of his life is only a matter of time for him.
Only for Lin Xiaoyu, the woman who suddenly broke into his life, he had an indescribable feeling. She is smart and stubborn, not stammering or flattering, and she is like a family with her relatives, without the slightest arrogance and self-righteousness. He is not afraid of power, just like an ordinary partner to get along with. If he has nothing to do, he will quarrel and have fun, so that he can feel the warmth of peace in the darkness of abuse and deceit, and it seems that life is not boring for a while.
"The spirit is good, the people who are poisoned to death are still so imposing, is it possible that the light is back? It seems that this son is a step late. With the sound of talking, an uninvited guest came out of thin air, sat down at the table and unceremoniously poured himself a glass of water.
"Master. Another dark shadow then flashed into the house, and it was the North Underworld that had gone and returned. As soon as he went out to contact Nanze, he ran into a black shadow coming towards him at a very fast speed. He had to stop what he was doing and turn back to chase after him.
Xiahou Yichen put away the love in his heart, and snorted nonchalantly, knowing who it was without looking at him.
"Hades. Looking at the person who followed him, the man happily got up and circled him back and forth a few times, put his arm around his shoulder, and quipped: "I haven't seen you for a year, how do you feel that you are getting more and more vicissitudes." Is it that Xiahou Yichen is training you as an iron, I really can't go to me. ”
"I haven't seen you for a year, and I haven't seen how much you have changed, and you're still so boring. Beiming's cool opening, with thorny exits, was not afraid to sweep the other party's face.
"Hey, hey. Leng Xuran smiled wryly, "I didn't hear that your master is dying, come and give him a ride." ”
A gloating look revealed his mood at the moment, and when the words fell, he immediately received a cold gaze, eager to send him down first.
On weekdays, he didn't dare to be so arrogant, but at this moment and then, Xiahou Yichen was poisoned, and he had the antidote in his hand, so he didn't let him have a good look at the opportunity. was always suppressed by Xiahou Yichen before, and it should be time to get it back.
"What are you doing here?" Xiahou Yichen opened his mouth with a thick question, with a hint of surprise.
Listening to the questioning, the smile on Leng Xuran's face immediately changed color, his dim gaze and sadness crawled all over those eyes, and he said softly coquettishly: "Chen, you can't do this to me." "The sorrowful face is full of grief, like an abandoned woman.
is obviously a man, but every time he meets, he doesn't care about his proud soul-seducing demeanor. The corners of Beiming's mouth twitched, he glanced at him coldly, and took a few steps to the side in surprise, shaking off the guy who made him unhappy. Fortunately, he understands his master's temper, otherwise he would have been easily fooled.
Xiahou Yichen didn't feel any discomfort, "It seems that the newly opened flower building in Dragon Cinema City still lacks an Oiran, and this king thinks you should be able to sell it for a good price." "Calm words, full of warning. In the past, he just pretended to be a show, he just watched the show, but now, whether he is annoyed enough, or he thinks he has lived too long to provoke him.
pursing his pink lips, Leng Xuran cried with a handsome face, and his aggrieved look was indescribable, "I like the new and hate the old, and if I marry the princess, I won't recognize our old acquaintances." ”
Xiahou Yichen ate his set, and his unhappy expression was obviously exhausted, "Hell, throw it out." ”
When the words fell, the coquettish expression on Leng Xuran's face disappeared in an instant, and he smiled at Beiming and said, "It's just a joke, why take it so seriously?"
"Still not doing it?"
With an order, regardless of whether he was an opponent or not, Beiming walked towards him without hesitation, and at a glance, he knew that there was no joke in this posture.
Leng Xuran waved his hand, quickly dodged behind the table, and hurriedly said, "No, you kid is real." Xiahou Yichen, you are too ruthless, and I don't care if my son is hunted down and killed in your territory. Now that I have been entrusted with the task of risking my life to deliver you an antidote, this is how you treat me?"
Bei Ming stopped his approaching steps and secretly judged the truth of his words. Since he found out about the news of the princess and the antidote from Imperial Doctor Li, he almost all went out to find people and antidotes, but he saw that the time was approaching day by day, but there was no progress in the matter. Now that the antidote was suddenly delivered to the door, how could he not be surprised.
If you don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, you still have to have some means to be honest. Xiahou Yichen turned around vigilantly, "Entrusted by someone, who?" The anxious look on his face showed that he didn't put his mind on the antidote.
"A stupid boy who claims to be your entourage and is looking for medicine with his wounds. ”
When the words fell, I felt that a cold wind was coming in front of me, the figure flashed slightly, Xiahou Yichen had arrived in front of him, reached out and grabbed the placket of his chest unceremoniously, and asked "Where is she?"
Leng Xuran wanted to cry without tears, how did one or two always like to grab his clothes, but they were all ** out of shape. Raise your hand and throw the antidote to Beiming from the sleeve of your coat, "Soul chasing seven nights (seven-leaf clover) grass, decoction immediately." ”
Beiming took it, and there was still no relaxation in his heart. Finding the antidote, detoxification is urgent. Of course, if the poison is to be solved, people must find it. Quickly flashed out with the antidote.
"I said, can you let go first. Leng Xuran smiled bitterly and pointed to the hand on his chest. "Ben Gongzi is out of breath, how to answer your question. ”
Xiahou Yichen stared at the person in front of him silently, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and the same smile was more arrogant and evil than Leng Xuran's wry smile. Pitch black as ink, bright as stars, Danfeng's eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a coldness that did not match his expression, and crossed the dangerous light.
"Okay, okay, can't I admit defeat?" Seeing that he didn't mean to let go at all, Leng Xuran had to give in, and if he continued, he couldn't please a little good. Isn't it just an entourage? As for the nervousness, it is like this. If I had known, I wouldn't have come to this troubled water. muttered a few words in his heart, and then said slowly: "That, the other person, fell into the nest of poisonous snakes." ”
Feeling that the hand holding his clothes suddenly tightened a little, while Xiahou Yichen had not yet broken out, he hurriedly said: "Of course, after meeting this son, she is reluctant to die if she wants to." When and where I speak, I don't forget to praise myself, and at the same time admire the black and white handsome face, and I feel more than enjoyable. However, playing is still very important, and you must learn to accept it when you see it.
"You don't play tricks in front of this king, and I ask you once, where are the people?"
The big hand stroked his forehead with a headache, but he came to see the excitement and find fault. Xiahou Yichen, this guy, is obviously sick, but he dares to be so fierce. "The people around the prince don't know where they are, so how can this son know. Leng Xuran pretended to be innocent and didn't intend to give in.
Xiahou Yichen laughed instead of anger when he heard this, suddenly let go of his hand, and sat down at the table leisurely, his calm expression made people feel that the anxiety just now seemed to be just an illusion of dazzle. "Since this is the case, then please go back wherever Leng Gongzi comes, and don't send it. ”
The sudden change did not appear as expected in anger, which made Leng Xuran a little disappointed, but when he heard that pun, he was directly dumbfounded. Thinking about it, Xiahou Yichen had already guessed the purpose of his coming here in just a moment.
"Haha, for the sake of me delivering medicine for you, don't be so ruthless!"
From the day Lin Xiaoyou left, he took people up the mountain to look for him, but there was no news for several days. This can only show that he missed it from the beginning, and when they were still looking in the mountains, Leng Xuran had already taken her back to the city. Xiahou Yichen pondered for a while, and he also knew something in his heart.
"This king can't manage his own affairs and people well, how can he manage other people's affairs when he has leisure time. The words that seemed to be self-indulgent, but with the taste of threat, cut off Leng Xuran's back road without a trace.
Leng Xuren hated that in his heart, but he was caught by him with a word, Xiahou Yichen was really a black-bellied fox, and he couldn't get the slightest advantage in front of him at any time.
"How come, this son happens to have some clues here that you are looking for, why don't we discuss it well?" Leng Xuran flattered himself with the spirit of never flinching until he reached his goal. At the critical moment, he could only betray Lin Xiaoyou, and by the way, he took the opportunity to spy on the relationship between the two, after all, he was very curious about the person who could make Xiahou Yichen care.
Xiahou Yichen hooked the corners of his mouth, but he didn't say anything this time.
