Chapter 21: The Crisis of Xiao Rui

Previous Chapter

At the same time, in the Prime Minister's Mansion, which is hundreds of miles away from here, it is even more deserted than here.

The eldest grandson Wuji, who had just left the court, stroked his beard and sat on the upper seat of the living room, with a slightly serious and cold expression.

"Prime Minister, I just received the news that King Jin took that Zhu Rui to the most famous Qinglou, and I don't know what they are going to do. A man in a black robe calmly reported.

The corners of the eldest grandson Wuji's mouth rose, picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip slightly, and said, "Hmph! Li Zhi, that kid is not afraid. ”

Then he added: "If he hadn't been helping Wu Cao, how could she be so favored by His Majesty? ”

The man in black raised his eyebrows and smiled wickedly, "What does the prime minister mean...... Get rid of that kid? I'm happy to help. ”

"If you help, of course, it will be a great help, but I have no other way to deal with him. Eldest Sun Wuji squinted slightly like a cunning fox.

The man in black smiled heartily and said, "Then, I'll wait for the news of the prime minister." Of course, if there is any news of the Ming prince, please be sure to let us know. ”

The eldest grandson Wuji nodded and took out a letter from his sleeve. He handed the letter to the man in black, his expression solemn.

According to the spies, the Prince of Daming was to find out the truth about the assassination of Empress Daming that year, but there was very little information about the prince, and it seemed that he was blocked by Emperor Daming. ”

The man in black frowned, and the corners of his mouth showed a hint of mockery, "It's too self-conscious for that little prince to want to find out the truth of the past." ”

"It is said that this prince is different from his peers, has an old personality, and trained a group of dead soldiers with super high martial arts in the early Ming Dynasty. The eldest grandson Wuji sighed slightly.

The man in black didn't say anything more, saluted respectfully to the eldest grandson Wuji, and then turned to leave. The eldest grandson Wuji squinted slightly, unable to see his emotions.

At the same time, Xiao Rui, who didn't know that a catastrophe was coming, was leisurely strolling. Li Zhi told him that this time was just a warm-up before the Oiran selection, and it was not the most lively.

If you want to be lively, it must be whose family the first night of the two sisters belongs to. In other words, Xiao Rui got into trouble again for no reason.

Xiao Rui sighed and walked dejectedly, thinking about how to pass the rest of the time. Just as he was lingering, a familiar figure appeared in front of him.

As soon as Xiao Rui saw it, wasn't that the anonymous person who assassinated Qing Xuan last time? Xiao Rui immediately followed this person quietly and came to a forest.

The place was silent, a little strange, Xiao Rui looked around, and did not forget to follow the person closely.

Suddenly, he seemed to spot Xiao Rui and began to run. When Xiao Rui saw it, in a hurry, he used light skills and wanted to surpass that person from above.

Just as Xiao Rui had already flown into the air, a huge net suddenly fell from the sky. Xiao Rui was directly pressed to the ground, he pulled the huge net, but he couldn't break free, and he was a little anxious for a while.

"Yo ~ Why don't you come to chase me? Look at you, Zhu Gongzi, how embarrassed you are now!" the man looked at Xiao Rui in the net and sneered loudly.

Xiao Rui snorted coldly and ignored him. Xiao Rui raised his head and asked coldly, "Who sent you to arrest me, and why did you arrest me?"

The man didn't answer Xiao Rui, just sneered, carried Xiao Rui on the horse, and knocked him unconscious, but he ignored one thing......

Li Zhi also left shortly after Xiao Rui left, but he couldn't find any trace of Xiao Rui, thinking that Xiao Rui was back at the inn, and went back to inquire, but found that Xiao Rui did not come back.

Li Zhi walked around in a bit of a hurry and sent all the soldiers out. But after a long time, there is still no news from Xiao Rui.

"Li Zhi, how is it? Did you find my brother Rui?" Huang Rong asked Li Zhi anxiously, her eyes red.

Li Zhi shook his head dejectedly and said, "I've searched all over the city, but I still haven't found it." "Li Zhi, let me tell you, you have to find Brother Rui, do you know, if you can't find Brother Rui, not only you, but even the entire Datang can't afford it!"

Looking at Huang Rong's serious expression, a trace of doubt flashed in Li Zhi's eyes, but he was immediately replaced by a hurry

Suddenly, a soldier rushed in, got down on one knee, and said, "Your Highness, traces of a fight have been found in the woods outside the city, and there is a strange symbol on it. ”

"What symbol? Show me. Huang Rong asked anxiously. The soldier handed Huang Rong a piece of paper, and the symbol on it turned out to be "SOS"!

Yes, this is exactly the mark that Xiao Rui quietly carved on the ground when he dragged time, and the meaning of this mark was told to Rong'er.

"That's right! That's right! Brother Rui told me that this is a signal for help, and Brother Rui seems to have met a bad guy. Huang Rong said excitedly.

Li Zhi suddenly cheered up and said in a high-pitched voice: "Okay! Then let me, the most handsome guy in history, go and see it with you now!"

Huang Rong ignored him directly, and hurriedly followed the horseshoe prints left behind to find their traces.

"Hmm, where am I?" Xiao Rui slowly opened his eyes, and in front of him was a very unfamiliar environment, as if he was in a secret room.

"Are you awake?" a deep voice came. Xiao Rui looked up and saw that it was a man in a black robe.

Xiao Rui nodded and asked suspiciously, "Where is this?" What are you doing here?" The man in black smiled heartily and did not answer.

"Someone!" shouted the man in black. Two stout young men walked in, and then bowed their heads to obey the black-clad man's command.

The man in black smiled wickedly and said, "You two teach us the rules of Zhu Gongzi here!" "Yes!" The two men replied respectfully.

One of them stepped out, holding an iron that had been roasted in the fire, and stretched it towards Xiao Rui's chest. "Hiss...... Xiao Rui took a breath.

He gritted his teeth as he endured the burning pain in his chest. At the same time, the other took out a bag of salt and sprinkled it towards the burn.

"Ah!!" Xiao Rui roared loudly, he was already extremely angry at this time. When the man in black saw it, he took out a leather whip from his arms and whipped it towards Xiao Rui.

"Hmm...... Xiao Rui felt the burning pain, he never wavered in his faith, gritted his teeth and persisted, although blood was already flowing from the corners of his mouth.

Huang Rong, who was not far away, covered her heart, this feeling is very bad, Brother Rui, please hold on, wait for Rong'er!

After the midterm was completed this time, the head teacher actually said that he would take the exam again, and there were so many subjects, that he felt that he had passed a fake midterm exam. So I hope you will be more considerate, after all, it has reached such a critical juncture.
