163. Frightened

Yuan Wangye's face turned pale, and he shook his head again and again: "Impossible, this is impossible!" ”

Princess Yuan heard Cao Rui's report in the car, opened the curtain, and almost fell out of the car without caring about the maid's support, and stepped forward to grab Prince Yuan's clothes.

"I said it earlier, I said it earlier, how could you let Jing Xiu save that woman and his son! He is your son! Are you asking him to pay for that woman and Qu Qu's concubine?! Princess Yuan shouted tremblingly.

Yuan Wang Ye just shook his head: "Impossible, this son of evil has always been cunning, it is this king who let him chase alone, how can he put himself in danger?!" ”

Everyone was staring at him intently, some anxious, some confused, some silent, and more words he couldn't say. He could vaguely feel that Xie Jingxiu was not only holding the power of the Yuan Wangfu in his hands. In the past few times he encountered crises, he was able to save the day, and he lifted the weight lightly. He has checked and asked, but the situation found out is clean and clear.

The more this is the case, the more Yuan Wang Ye believes that Xie Jingxiu is not simple. It's just that he has been maintaining the Yuan Wangfu all the time, so the Yuan Wang Ye will also give up.

The children of each family will have some other property outside, and his son is so capable, he can only be more assured. Therefore, although he feels partial to the young son who has been under the knee of Chenghuan since he was a child, he has never moved the idea of changing the son, he knows who is the most suitable successor and be a family.

Concubine Ding and Xie Jinglin were hunted down and killed, and he asked Xie Jingxiu to save them, because he was sure that he must have other means in secret. If anyone else was replaced to save Jinglin, not to mention the forces that protected the princess and the old prince, who could have the inscrutable strength of Xie Jingxiu?

Unexpectedly, it is a consequence that will never return.

"Maybe it's a ......fraud," Yuan Wang Ye gritted his teeth, as if comforting his wife and explaining to himself.

"I'll kill you mushy!" Lord Yuan raised his cane and knocked it down on the head and face of Lord Yuan, "That's your son, not your subordinate, not your enemy!" Why don't you send someone to find it! ”

Yuan Wang Ye didn't dare to hide, so he took a few sticks.

The patriarch had already walked in front of Concubine Ding and Xie Jinglin, his face was sinking like water, he looked at the mother and son coldly, and asked, "Jing Xiu is chasing you, what happened to him, you two will tell me clearly immediately!" Not the slightest thing is allowed to be omitted! ”

Concubine Ding shrank back a little timidly, Xie Jinglin covered her injured shoulder, nodded palely, and carefully recounted what she had just seen.

When this kind of thing happens, the trip to Huguo Temple is naturally halfway.

Xiao Yu sat in Guang'an Hall to see people, but his eyelids kept jumping. Although he was not superstitious about this, he was also flustered.

In the afternoon, the fifth and seventh rushed to Guang'an Hall together, but brought a thunderbolt on a sunny day.

"What are you talking about?! The prince is missing?! Xiao Yu stood up suddenly, and the medical record in his hand fell to the ground with a snap.

Lao Wu frowned, nodded and said: "We escorted the old prince and the prince and his party to Huguo Temple, encountered assassins on the way, Concubine Ding's horse was shocked, and Prince Yuan ordered the prince to go to rescue Concubine Ding and Second Master Xie. The son of the world is still ...... No one has been seen yet. ”

Lao Qi added: "Judging from the traces in the forest, there are at least a hundred assassins chasing Shizi and Lao Liu. ”

Lao Wu glared at him, complaining that he had explained things so clearly. Sure enough, Xiao Yu's face instantly turned pale.

Lao Qi said in a low voice: "The prince said that there is no need to hide anything from the princess. ”

Xiao Yu also heard Lao Qi's words, and suddenly remembered that Xie Jingxiu grabbed his hand when he left and said, just believe him......

But now that the figure is gone, how can he rest assured that he can trust him again?!

"Send someone to find him immediately!" Xiao Yu shouted angrily.

Lao Wu said: "Don't worry, the princess, the prince has sent the guards of the Yuan Wangfu to look for it, and we are also looking for it." Shizi Ji people have their own natural appearance, and they will definitely be fine. ”

Where could Xiao Yu listen to these false words and comfort, thought about it and said hurriedly: "I'm going to Yuanwang's Mansion for a trip!" ”

Qin actually picked up the case from the ground, and when he got up, he saw Xiao Yu pulling the fifth and seventh children out in a hurry.

The three of them rode horses and galloped through the downtown area, and returned to the Yuanwang Mansion in a moment and a half.

Prince Yuan and the others were all sitting in the main hall, and even Princess Yuan did not go back to her Yiran small house.

She has been in trouble with Yuan Wangye's father and son for half her life, but in the end, it is the meat that fell from her body, how can she not worry about her stomach when she is at the moment of life and death.

Xiao Yu went straight into the hall, didn't care about the etiquette of the family, and asked, "Is there any news of the prince?!" ”

Yuan Wang Ye and Yuan Princess didn't want to see him, and they were even more unwilling to deal with him at this time, Yuan Wang Ye turned his head angrily, and Princess Yuan just bowed her head and wept.

The patriarch sighed and beckoned Xiao Yu to his side.

"I'm sending someone to find you, I know you're anxious, so you're waiting for news here."

Xiao Yu saw that it was getting late outside, where could he sit still.

"I'm not waiting here, I'm going to find him!"

Yuan Wang Ye slapped the table and said angrily: "What can you do when you go?!" It's just to make trouble for the guards! ”

Xiao Yu looked at Yuan Wangye, thinking that what Lao Qi said was that Yuan Wangye asked Xie Shizi to rescue Concubine Ding and Xie Jinglin. He is the prince of the Yuan Wangfu, and the Yuan prince called him like this, what kind of person did he think of? ! Even if Xie Jinglin is the youngest son that Prince Yuan really loves, isn't the life of the eldest son important?

The most hateful thing is that guy actually went.

Knowing that the situation is critical, will he really put his own safety at risk in order to save a woman with bad intentions?!

Xiao Yu thought in his heart, he was anxious for a while, and then he felt that this might be Xie Jingxiu's plan, which was extremely tormenting.

Xiao Yu naturally couldn't stay in the Yuanwang Mansion and wait for the news, so he was still led by the fifth and seventh children and rushed to the place where the accident was outside the city.

The patriarch looked at the backs of the three of them leaving, sighed infinitely melancholy, leaned slightly, and asked Lao Jiu beside him: "This matter, the prince really didn't know about it in advance?"

Lao Jiu bowed his head respectfully and replied: "Old prince, the duty of your subordinates and others is to protect your safety, and your subordinates really don't know about the affairs of the son." ”

The patriarch sighed and stopped talking.

If his little grandson had given them an order, no one would have been able to extract a trace of truth from their mouths. Even he couldn't.

In fact, not only the Yuan prince had doubts about the power of his eldest son, but even the old prince suspected that this was Xie Jingxiu's strategy, but after all, no one could give him a word of accuracy, and this heart could never be implemented.

In any case, there is always a hint of luck in my heart.

Yuan Wang Ye was willing to believe that this was a conspiracy of Xie Jingxiu, and when he appeared in front of him so indifferently again, he could only expose it by scolding the "evil son".

But Heaven doesn't seem willing to give him this opportunity.

Three days later, Cao Rui came and said that he had found a clue at the bottom of the cliff.

A corpse, a corpse that is not dignified.

He was hacked to death with a knife, fell from a high cliff, and was torn to pieces by hungry beasts.

A dozen guards descended to the bottom of the cliff and pieced together a corpse to bring it back intact.

The dark blue kaftan of the best material has been soaked with black blood, but the dark lines of silver threads around the corners of the clothes can still show a little luster in the sun.

It is worthy of the work of the best embroidery girl in the Jiangnan embroidery workshop.

When Princess Yuan heard this, she didn't even make a sound, and the whites of her eyes fell to the ground softly, so startled that a group of subordinates hurriedly stepped forward to help.

Yuan Wang Ye sat down in the chair with a pale face, staring at the void with bloodshot eyes, and just muttered: "This is impossible, this is impossible......"

The patriarch turned pale, got up and walked outside, towards the side courtyard where the body was parked.

Concubine Ding had already hurriedly walked out with Xie Jinglin's support, and knelt down in front of Yuan Wang Ye with a plop, tears welled up in her eyes, which were already swollen to the point that there was only a slit left.

"Lord Wang, it's all the concubine's fault, it's all the concubine's body that has affected the world! Even if a concubine dies, she will not be able to atone for the sins she has committed against the son! Rajah! ”

Concubine Ding fell to the ground crying, but the stunned eyes of Prince Yuan didn't even look at her.

Xie Jinglin also knelt down silently, his brows furrowed, and his eyes looked at the ground in front of him fixedly.

Yuan Wang Ye didn't have the heart to take care of Concubine Ding, so as soon as he came to his senses, he asked people to send Princess Yuan back and get up to see the corpse.

The people in the hall were scattered in an instant, Concubine Ding wiped her tears with a handkerchief, stood up with Xie Jinglin's support, and slowly walked towards the backyard.

In the past few days, she has been crying for three days and three nights, and her swollen eyes can't be faked.

Xie Jinglin was silent all the way, and when he returned to the courtyard, he finally couldn't help but ask, "Big brother...... Really dead? ”

Concubine Ding snorted, the look on her face was really incongruous with those swollen eyes.

"Nature is true, it really can't be true." After speaking, he couldn't help but chuckle twice, shook the handkerchief and smiled, "I really didn't expect it to be so smooth." I thought that kid had always been slippery and difficult to deal with, and he had specially prepared so many people. This time it was really thanks to the prince for helping us a lot. ”

"Mother." Xie Jinglin couldn't help but raise his voice, and when he saw Concubine Ding looking at him with a surprised but loving expression, he muttered for a moment, and just said, "Are you buying off the assassins on the rivers and lakes?" Will there be any trouble, in case my father finds out......"

"My mother is measured, you don't have to worry about it." Concubine Ding smiled, but didn't explain more, and continued to walk towards the room.

Xie Jinglin slowed down his pace, and finally stopped in the courtyard, looking up at the gray sky.

The eldest brother fell into that unclever trap in order to save them......

Changing places, if he was alone, would he save Princess Yuan and Xie Jingxiu?

He won't, no doubts.

Xie Jinglin wanted to bring down this big brother who was pressing on top of his head, and he thought about it for many years, and finally it happened, but he didn't seem to be as excited as he imagined.

There is only infinite melancholy that does not know where to arise.

Xie Jinglin vaguely knew that Concubine Ding had also assassinated Xie Jingxiu several times when he was a child, but he avoided him. He knows it, doesn't Xie Jingxiu know?

But over the years, even if Xie Jingxiu has a faint face, he has actually shouldered the burden of the Yuan Palace. If it weren't for him, just relying on the prince Yuan who was full of wind and snow, the palace would have been swallowed by the royal family a long time ago.

He had never done anything to Concubine Ding and him. Is it disdainful, or don't want to? Xie Jinglin had never thought deeply about this eldest brother's thoughts, but when he thought about it suddenly, he was even more at a loss.

It's ridiculous that Prince Yuan still thinks that although his wife and concubines in his backyard don't get along, they never compete. Men are always accustomed to looking down on women, as if they are all objects of affection and water, but they do not know that women's ambition and desire for power are never less than men's. Xie Jinglin grew up next to Concubine Ding, so he understands how powerful women are. The romantic debt caused by Prince Yuan is now finally repaid on Xie Jingxiu's body.

That's right, this is the retribution caused by the prince of Yuan.

Xie Jinglin walked out of Concubine Ding's courtyard with one shallow foot, he didn't really want to see the unrecognizable corpse, but he still couldn't help but walk in that direction.

Before he arrived at the courtyard gate, he heard a young man's voice as cold as ice cream but very clear from inside.

"I'm going to do an autopsy!"

This is the little boy wife of the eldest brother...... Xie Jinglin's heart moved slightly, and he walked into the courtyard and stood behind the crowd to watch.

The whole yard was filled with a violent rancid stench, which was the smell of death.

Xiao Yu's face was pale, and he clenched his fists to stop the trembling all over his body.

He didn't believe it, he definitely didn't believe it. A man like Xie Jingxiu should always be high and not eat the fireworks of the world.

Now what kind of funny sitcom is this?

Yuan Wang Ye had already seen the corpse, no matter the size and clothing, it was all similar to Xie Jingxiu.

At this point, he had believed most of it, and suddenly it was as if he had lost all support, and he was crumbling, and even Feng Zhaoyu was under the protection of the two guards to forcefully block everyone, and when he approached the corpse, he had no time to care.

Xiao Yu rolled up his sleeves and reached out without hesitation to touch the wolf's somewhat hideous head, and the people of the Yuan Wang's Mansion who were surrounding him suddenly gasped.

Xiao Yu ignored them, just closed his eyes, and felt the outline of the skull on the tips of his fingers.

The bridge of the nose is not as tall as Xie Jingxiu, the eye sockets are not as deep as his, and the cheekbones are much higher than him-inch by inch, Xiao Yu is comparing inch by inch in his mind. He had never realized that his understanding of Xie Jingxiu was so profound.

People say that love is as deep as the sea, and he can't see the surface of the heart without see-through eyes, but his understanding of Xie Jingxiu is really deep and deep.

This person is not Xie Jingxiu at all.

Xiao Yu only felt that his beating heart gradually calmed down, and finally his heart was really as calm as water.

That morning, Xie Jingxiu took his hand and said the words ringing in his ears again.

He said that the soldiers will come to block, and the water will flood the earth. It seems that Xie Jingxiu didn't expect everything at that time.

But since he made this one, at least it means that he is safe.

No matter what he was going to do, since he was going to disguise, then he shouldn't know.

A smile appeared on the corner of Xiao Yu's lips.

It's just that he didn't know that he groped for the hideous head with both hands, raised his head slightly and closed his eyes and smiled, which was terrifying in the eyes of people with hearts.
