Chapter 651: Sinners?
"Yes, His Highness has been in good spirits in the last few days, training with the group of Tiger Benjun in the morning, practicing together, eating together, and it seems that he has recovered from the last defeat. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Chen Yuanjian sighed with emotion, "In the end, it was the Fifth Highness, and I thought it would be a slump from now on." What about the Tiger Army? ”
The guard replied in a low voice: "Those tiger soldiers did not blame His Highness, but comforted His Highness, cheered His Highness up, and saw that His Highness was full of fighting spirit again, and they were very happy." ”
Chen Yuanjian narrowed his eyes, "It seems that His Royal Highness is very popular with the Tiger Army, and the Tiger Army has lost so much, so he didn't complain about him." ”
Chen Yuanjian asked again: "What about His Highness now?" ”
"I went out with Qingfan."
Chen Yuanjian glanced at the guards lightly, "Are you going to the Yan family's shop again?" Did you find out what the princess brought to His Royal Highness this time? ”
There was a look of embarrassment on the guard's face, "General, that shop is heavily guarded, and there are no less than twenty people guarding that small courtyard, all of whom have a lot of fists and feet, and our people can't go in to investigate." ”
Chen Yuanjian frowned, there were so many people guarding him, it seemed that the things that the princess brought over this time should be very important.
Now Chen Yuanjian is even more curious and urgent.
"You didn't eavesdrop?"
A hint of fear flashed on the guard's face, and his voice trembled a little, "It's arranged, but not only why, the brothers squatted in the corner and wanted to eavesdrop on the people in the courtyard, but they retreated in less than twenty breaths." ”
"Defeated?"
Chen Yuanjian was stunned for a moment, sat up straight, looked at the guards with a serious expression, and said in a deep voice: "To be clear, they are all lurking and hiding good hands, how can they be defeated in twenty breaths?" You've been discovered? ”
The guard shook his head, "I didn't find it, but for some reason they were bitten by small insects, and their bodies were itchy and unbearable..."
"Bastard!"
Chen Yuanjian slapped the table, "It's not that you haven't been trained in this area, and a little sour will make you retreat?" ”
The guards hurriedly explained, "No, General, it's not an ordinary itch, some of them have persevered the longest time, and now they have scratched themselves, and the shortest time is just scratching the flesh."
The brothers have been raising them in the tent for the past few days, and they don't dare to come out to meet people, and they can't get better even if they grab medicine and take it, so they can only get through it by themselves. ”
When the guards remembered the tragic situation, they still had some lingering palpitations.
Chen Yuanjian's brows furrowed even tighter, "Those insects are so powerful?" When did the border city have these bugs? None of you will catch those bugs and let the Imperial Doctor take a look at them? ”
"Catch it, but that bug is a thief, and it's weird, if you don't give it blood, it's going to die quickly, but if you use blood to feed it... It eats only fresh blood from people. ”
To be raised with fresh human blood, as long as you have seen the tragic situation of those who have been bitten by insects, where are there still people who feed tigers with their bodies?
When the guard talked about the bug, he couldn't help but touch his arm, as if there was a bug crawling on him.
Such a strange insect was unheard of by Chen Yuanjian, but now he thought about it.
He has been in the border city for so many years, if there is really such a bug, it is impossible not to have heard of it, and he encountered it in the Yan family's shop.
"Among the people sent by the princess, is there anyone worthy of suspicion?"
Chen Yuanjian felt that there must be a secret hidden in the Yan family's shop.
"Of the people who lived in Yan's shop, more than 20 were guards, and the other was a steward, and those guards all obeyed the orders of the steward along the way, and there was nothing abnormal other than that."
The guard thought about it and replied cautiously.
"And what about the shipment? Did you find out what it was? ”
couldn't figure out the bug, Chen Yuanjian could only blame it on the fact that it was the time of Fangfei in April, the spring flowers were blooming, everything was recovering, or there were many small insects, and it was not surprising that there were many small insects, so he asked about the goods instead.
"The brothers didn't get close to the goods, but they saw from a distance that the guards were very nervous about the goods, especially the three boxes on one of the carriages, even after the steward got off the car."
Chen Yuanjian understood that maybe those three boxes were because the Yan family shop was heavily guarded.
"Think of a way to find out what's in those boxes, I don't believe they'll be so vigilant forever."
Chen Yuanjian became more curious about those boxes.
The guards stubbornly won yes.
......
Three days later, Zhou Tingyu came to the Yan family's shop again, and this time, in the courtyard, he met the Zhao family's steward and the head of the guard.
The leader disguised the two of them as two of his followers, brought them to Yan's shop to buy things, and was invited into the inner courtyard.
Seeing Zhou Tingyu's arrival, the leader introduced the two of them, "This is the big man, the vanguard general of the border city, and also His Majesty's favorite Fifth Prince." ”
The steward's face changed, they looked at each other, and then they knelt down and bowed.
"Sinners see the Five Highnesses."
Zhou Tingyu's eyebrows moved slightly, and he glanced at the leader, he didn't immediately call the two of them up, but looked at them playfully, and said in a calm voice: "Sinners? ”
His voice was full of sternness, and he exuded an iron-blooded aura all over his body, more imposing than the senior officials seen in the lives of the steward and the head of the guard.
The steward and the head of the guard both trembled, lowered their heads and secretly glanced at each other again, the steward gritted his teeth, kowtowed three times first, and then raised his head to look at Zhou Tingyu,
"Your Highness, sinners have done unforgivable sins and made great mistakes, and I only hope that sinners can make up for the sins they have committed, and I don't ask for forgiveness, I only hope that the sins will not be as good as my family."
The head of the guard also kowtowed three times, and pleaded earnestly, "Your Highness, sinners also hope that they can not be punished by their families, if there is anything to be punished, I will bear it alone." ”
The playful smile on Zhou Tingyu's face gradually retracted, his eyes looked at the two of them coldly, and the momentum of his whole body was even worse, and an extremely cold chill made the two of them tremble.
Facing those eyes, dense cold sweat oozed from the backs of the two of them, their waists and spines bent lower, and the whole person knelt on the ground in a more surrendered posture, and his face gradually turned pale, if he didn't kneel, he could directly collapse to the ground.
I don't know how long it took, the pair of boots in front of the two walked away from their eyes, and an indifferent voice came from overhead.
"What have you done? Honestly tell what you know, do you want to offend your family? It's up to you to behave, and Your Highness will consider it at your discretion. ”
