185. Street encounters
The patriarch was taken aback, and also frowned: "How can this be? I've never lost MeSign and Tokens. Even Fang Xiang, we have never passed on secret letters in private. Fang Xiang doesn't need my token ......"
The patriarch said and spoke, but he was suffocated, his face turned black in an instant, and a faint flash of anger flashed.
Xiao Yu hurriedly asked, "Grandfather, what do you remember?" No matter what, you have to sue Sù Jingxiu, even if it's wrong, it doesn't matter. ”
The patriarch slammed the table again and again: "Confused, I'm confused!" He got up and said, "I'll go and explain it to Jing Xiu in person!" ”
When he was on the way, the patriarch explained the inside story to Xiao Yu. It turned out that the former patriarch had to be rescued by Chen Suqing, and when he learned that Chen Suqing had a poor family background, he felt pity, so he gave her a token that he carried with him, and if she was harassed after returning to Beijing, she was allowed to use this token to go to the Yuan Wangfu to find him for help.
That token can only show the identity of the patriarch prince, and it is useless, even if it falls into the hands of the gangsters, except for being able to ask to see him with this card, it is useless, so the patriarch is not worried. Moreover, he believed that woman, she cherished her family and country, was loyal to Fang Xiang, was a open-minded person, and would never do anything wrong.
If the Yuan Wangfu has always been the Yuan Wangfu of the Great Liang, and the old prince has always stood on the same front with Fang Xiang, this token matter is naturally not a big deal.
But now that the world has changed, no one expected that they would break away from the imperial court in this way and move to the nameless island, and this token was almost bad.
"Not only have I never been able to help Xiu'er, but now I'm causing trouble to Xiu'er, I'm afraid that Xiu'er will be even more annoyed with my incompetent grandfather." The patriarch sighed dejectedly.
Xiao Yu comforted: "Grandfather, don't think so, what Jing Xiu cares about most is not whether you can help him, not whether you have caused him trouble, as long as you put him in your heart, he will be satisfied enough." You have to trust your grandson that there is no problem that he can't solve. ”
The patriarch looked at Xiao Yu and Youyou's proud appearance, and he couldn't help but find a trace of relief in his heart.
In any case, these two children were also married because of him, and what he did was not entirely wrong.
The two went to the Criminal Department to find Xie Jingxiu and confessed the matter to Xie Jingxiu.
Xie Jingxiu sat outside the simple torture room, playing with the small jade plaque between his slender fingers.
"I see." Xie Jingxiu said softly.
Xiao Yu looked at him, Xie Jingxiu was expressionless, and even Xiao Yu couldn't tell if he was angry or sad.
In fact, this matter cannot be blamed entirely on the patriarch. The old prince is different from the prince of the wind and snow, he originally had his own political position, and he supported the party to resist the traitorous ministers, trying to restore the Qing Dynasty to the court, which cannot be said to be wrong. And I'm afraid that this business has been in business for more than a year or two.
Xie Jingxiu suddenly turned out of the capital and brought everyone to Nameless Island, and his arrangement did not allow anyone to leave their beaks. For the patriarch, this matter must have been very sudden, and without even the slightest preparation, he completely cut off contact with his former colleagues, and gave up all the things he was going to do.
The patriarch may be ashamed of Xie Jingxiu in his heart, or he may be pleased with this grandson's ability, in short, since he boarded the ship, he has never expressed a trace of concern for old things and old friends, and he obeyed Xie Jingxiu's arrangement with peace of mind and became an idle old man on Nameless Island.
He's not boring these days. How could the patriarch not feel aggrieved by a man who had been running around the country since he was young and had nothing to do in this small island city, but he never showed the slightest hint of it, and just enjoyed himself.
Although he was careless and didn't take care of Jing Xiu back then, he loved this grandson in his heart, and it was because of his protection that Xie Jingxiu found a little support in the isolated Yuanwang Mansion when he was a child.
Xie Jingxiu said for a while: "What's the matter with the secret letter?" ”
Xiao Yu also looked at the patriarch prince, who was holding the letter and looking at it carefully, and slowly shook his head and said, "I haven't written this letter, I'm afraid that someone has copied my handwriting." ”
Xie Jingxiu nodded, it is not difficult to imitate the handwriting, plus a real token, it is naturally easier to win the trust of others.
It's just that the people behind the scenes don't know what kind of control he has reached over Nameless Island and Lifeng Harbor, as long as it is in these two places, nothing can hide from his eyes.
So their plan was doomed to fail.
Xie Jingxiu said: "You guys go back first, this is not the place for you to stay." ”
An old man and a young man really shouldn't stay in this gloomy prison of the criminal department.
If Xiao Yu knew Xie Jingxiu's unfinished intentions, he would definitely complain about his arrogance in his heart, but at this time, he just obediently helped the old prince who sighed and sighed to leave.
In the infirmary, a group of doctors in their forties and fifties gathered around the bed and admired one after another, and some even reached out to touch a person lying on the bed.
"I really don't burn ......"
"The wound is starting to heal."
"What kind of formula is that potion that works so quickly!"
Shang Fanxing listened to the praise of a group of old doctors, crawled to the corner with the quilt in his arms to avoid the big hands with bad intentions, and shouted in humiliation: "Don't touch it again, touch the official again!" ”
"Don't dare, don't dare, Lord Shang has a good rest." Several doctors politely stepped back and smiled in apologies.
Shang Fanxing looked at the unremarkable uncle's face in front of him, where was the gentle and beautiful young man he saw in the haze that day?
Could it be that the boy was just a dream of his?
"Let me ask you, is there a beautiful boy among the doctors who treated me that day?" Shang Fanxing asked.
Several doctors looked at each other.
Mr. Shang had just woken up from his coma, his face was still white, and he began to think about the beauty. is worthy of being a person in the rivers and lakes, it is so informal.
But there is only one beautiful young man, and everyone knows that it is the princess of their own master.
I heard that the commander only praised the princess, and was sent by the master to the new construction site of the armory factory to build a house with the workers.
The master can't even stand others praising the princess! Because you dare to praise the princess, it must be because you deliberately looked at the princess more, and you really knelt down for the master's powerful logic.
"I haven't seen it, I haven't seen it." The doctors shook their heads again and again, "Where are there any beautiful boys, just our old salted fish." ”
Shang Fanxing looked at them suspiciously, and several doctors hurriedly made excuses and left one after another, as if there was a dog chasing behind their heels.
"There's weirdness."
Master Shang touched his injured shoulder, recalling the cool and comfortable feeling of being gently rubbed by the fingers of the beautiful young man, but the heart of a prodigal son became even hotter.
In any case, he must find that beautiful teenager!
The so-called stepping on iron shoes has nowhere to be found, and it takes no effort to get it.
On the second day after Mr. Shang's wound healed, he left the hospital, and he saw the beautiful young man he had been thinking about all these days.
At the corner of the street, the young man stood outside the gate of the private school, dressed in a pale blue shirt covered with a light veil of the same color as thin as smoke, holding a few books in his hand, with a sweet smile on his face, and his cat-like eyes slightly bent, saying goodbye to the students who were returning home from class.
Compared with the young man he saw in his dream, the person in front of him was more innocent and ignorant of the world.
Master Shang, who was dressed in a coquettish purple robe, rubbed his fingers, and his eyes narrowed slightly. It's better to be naïve, it's more delicious to be naïve.
Suddenly, a low-key and luxurious carriage drove from the other side of the street, blocking his view of the peeping beauty.
Whether it was low-key restraint or extravagant sullenness, the carriage was a style that he was too familiar to be familiar with.
This is clearly Childe's carriage.
While he was chasing the spies, there were several major events happening in the city, and Shang Fanxing had just heard about them from others.
Gongzi is no longer a child, and all subjects respect him as a king, and his honorific title is wise.
It's just that Xie Jingxiu doesn't care about names and the like now, he only cares about his army, ships, and silver.
Everyone still calls him the prince in general terms, or still calls him the prince, or the master.
He also brought back a male princess from the capital, and now he has never seen a real person.
Shang Fanxing took a few steps forward, and the carriage stopped for a moment before leaving, taking the boy with him at the same time.
The curtain at the window was raised, revealing Xie Jingxiu's cold and handsome face.
As soon as the young man got in the car, he came to Xie Jingxiu's side, with a well-behaved smile, his eyes flashing slightly, and he couldn't stop saying something.
Such a scene is like a bolt from the blue for Master Shang! Shang Fanxing was stunned for a moment.
With his understanding of Childe, if it weren't for an extremely close relationship, Childe would not have tolerated others being so close to him.
Could it be that this young man turned out to be the petty of the child? Or a lover?!
In short, it won't be the princess, and he can't see a trace of the majesty that belongs to the princess from the young man's body. Although he had never seen the princess, the princess must have extraordinary qualities, so it was possible to attract this cold-faced and cold-hearted Xie Jingxiu.
The young man just now only had the innocence of not knowing the world, and it was impossible for Xie Jingxiu to break his heart.
"Is it really Childe's pet?" One of Shang's spring hearts has been shattered into slag.
His first love, which had just sprouted as pure as a little snowflake, was destroyed by the merciless wind and snow on the spot!
"No, I don't believe it!" Master Shang clenched his fists, thinking of Xie Jingxiu's cold and majestic face just now, just glaring slightly, making his beloved young man tremble like a frightened deer, and smile even more humbly and flatteringly.
"It must have been forced by the prince. My boy, I will definitely save you from the sea of suffering! ”
Woo, his young man boarded the prince's carriage, and he was like a sheep in the tiger's mouth, and now he may be trying to force a smile.
"My heart hurts!" Master Shang couldn't bear to look at the carriage that had gone away, and ran away with his heart.
In the carriage, Feng Zhaoqi glanced at Xie Jingxiu with some excitement and timidity, and didn't quite understand why this "brother-in-law" deliberately drove to pick him up.
You must know that in addition to looking at his brother differently, even if he has a face that is the same as his brother, he has no status at all in his eyes, let alone ask him to take him from school in person.
Xie Jingxiu grimaced a cold face as usual, and glanced at Feng Zhaoqi lightly.
Feng Zhaoqi was so frightened that he shuddered and shrank back, and couldn't help but secretly admire his eldest brother's strong psychological qualities.
He was chilled just by being looked at by Xie Shizi, how did his brother endure sharing a bed with him every day!
can only Xie Jingxiu said: "Your third uncle is about to go to the nameless island by boat today, and this king will pick you up and Yu'er to the dock to meet him." ”
"Oh." Feng Zhaoqi responded obediently.
Isn't their third uncle the old man who is not as beautiful as a mortal? By the way, in addition to his brother, Xie Shizi should be said to be Prince Rui now, and the only one who sees it in his eyes is their third uncle.
Obsessed with the same male-male relationship.
Feng Zhaoqi's eyes purred a few times, thinking of an urgent hope he had in the past few days, which only his prince's "brother-in-law" could satisfy.
He usually gives him a hundred guts, and he doesn't dare to come in front of this guy, but since it's such a coincidence today, it's better to hit the day than to hit the day, so let's beg him now-
Feng Zhaoqi smiled on his face, rubbed his hands and said, "Lord Wang, the younger brother has something to ask for——"
"Nope." Without waiting for him to say what he was asking for, Xie Jingxiu opened his mouth with regret, and there was no room for it.
Feng Zhaoqi was stunned: "I haven't said anything yet!" ”
Rui Wangye's face did not change, as if he had not heard of it.
Feng Zhaoqi held back for a while, simply threw off all the burdens, bowed with his hands in a low bow, and behaved coquettishly.
"Lord, eldest brother, brother-in-law. Sister-in-law! Please. I just want to go to your armory factory to learn something, I must pay attention to proportion, and I will definitely not delay the progress of the masters. Feng Zhaoqi pleaded with his big round eyes.
Ever since he followed a group of people to the Arsenal a few days ago, he has been completely obsessed with that kind of cold and swarthy iron guy.
He originally thought that those weapons were all commonplace swords, guns, swords, and halberds, at most they would improve on the casting materials and sharp Cheng dù, but he didn't expect that they were not the kind of weapons he imagined at all.
It's a firearm, it's actually a firearm, the kind of powerful firearm that only appeared in the legendary former Chaotian Machine Battalion, but in the armory factory under his "brother-in-law", all the weapons warehouses are piled up. When he first really saw the lethality of those weapons, he only felt that the blood all over his body was shouting in anticipation.
In the past ten years, he just followed the path that ordinary officials should take step by step, studying, gaining fame, and then studying in order to seek the title of the gold list.
He was neither slacking off nor outstanding in his studies and scientific examinations, until that day when he saw one unique firebolt after another produced from the hands of those armor craftsmen, he felt a throbbing and yearning of his heart for the first time.
Xie Jingxiu didn't pay attention to his expectations and pleas at all, and after refusing once, he didn't bother to say it a second time, just sat upright, and didn't even give him a cold look.
Feng Zhaoqi completely died down.
He resembles his brother so much that people who meet them for the first time may even confuse their identities. He liked his brother so much that he didn't treat such a similar face at all.
It's really kneeling for this brother-in-law.
Or beg my brother another day, let him blow the pillow and the wind will come faster.
