Chapter 221: Apologies
Yanliuzhuang.
Xuanye Gongzi was also standing in the courtyard at this time, looking up at the sky.
The moonlight tonight is indeed very beautiful, the moon is like a hook, and the moonlight is even hazy, like a beauty covered with a thin veil, which is lovely.
Seventeen Niang walked over and said in a low voice, "Hall Master, there is news from the palace. ”
"Speak." Xuanye Gongzi replied indifferently.
"King Zhong has returned safely, Yelu Junhao and the emperor have borrowed troops to attack Yelu Junze, and they are about to leave tomorrow." Seventeen Niang said softly.
"Okay, got it." Xuanye Gongzi still had an indifferent tone.
Recently, there have been more and more news from the palace, but most of them are not what he wants, so he can't arouse any interest.
"Hall Master, there is one more thing ......" Seventeen Niang wanted to speak and stopped.
"What?" Xuanye Gongzi frowned slightly, Seventeen Niang has always been neat and tidy, how have you ever seen her so spitting?
"The palace people also said that when Yelu Junhao's mansion was besieged, Princess Baoshou died under the chaotic saber......" Seventeen Niang said cautiously, holding her fingers tightly.
The real Princess Baoshou has long been sent out of Kyoto, and now the so-called Princess Baoshou can only be said to be Ru Xuan.
Ru Xuan, she died......
Seventeen Niang was very sad in her heart and almost burst into tears.
Ru Xuan is a good girl, she felt so the first time she saw her, and she felt even more so later.
Such a good girl, unexpectedly ......
Seventeen Niang didn't dare to reveal her inner feelings, so she could only force it in her heart, pinched her nails fiercely, and almost broke off half of them.
And at this time, Xuanye Gongzi was even more ugly.
Originally, I thought it was just a substitute marriage. If he could enjoy the noble differential, fine clothes and fine food, the guilt in his heart might not be so heavy.
But. Now the result is that for the sake of the descendants of the Chai family, he actually killed others in vain.
Is......
Xuanye Gongzi let out a long sigh, stretched out his hand and said, "Seventeen Niang, take the sword of the hall master to ......"
Seventeen Niang was stunned, but she still took the order to go to the house and go to the sword to come over.
"Hall Master." Seventeen Niang sent the sword with both hands.
Xuanye Gongzi took it and drew his sword out of its sheath.
A sword is a good sword. Built of ancient black iron, the sword body is carved with a complicated dragon pattern, this sword is a family heirloom of the Zhou Dynasty. Now, it's in the hands of the Xuanye Prince.
The blade of the sword glowed with cold light, and it was even more cold under the moonlight.
Xuanye Gongzi looked at the blade of the sword for a long time, looked up to the sky and sighed: "Today, my Chai Zixuan is harming people's lives. He should apologize for his sins with death......"
Let's talk about it. Swing your sword at your chest and stab it hard!
The sword came too fast, and blood splattered everywhere.
"Hall Master!" Seeing this scene, Seventeen Niang was startled, looked at the sword that pierced into Xuanye Gongzi's body, screamed, and stepped forward to support him.
"I'm fine." Xuanye Gongzi pushed Seventeen Niang aside.
"Whew!"
The sword was drawn, and blood gushed out again. It gushed out of the wound, dyeing the moon-white robe bright red. It looks shocking.
"This sword, the right should be returned to you temporarily, Miss Ru Xuan." Xuanye said, putting the sword back into the sheath.
"Hall Master, your injuries are not light, and your subordinates have to stop the bleeding for you as soon as possible." Seventeen Niang said anxiously.
"It's okay, you can't die." Xuanye Gongzi waved his hand disapprovingly, and handed the sword in his hand back to Seventeen Niang's hand.
"By the way, Yingchang, what's the news?" Genya asked.
His sister has not been found yet, and now there is only news that it may have been lost to the Yingchang generation, and now there are some clues, saying that it is in a place in Lijiazhuang.
However, Yingchang is so big, there are so many people in Lijiazhuang, and there are countless people in Lijiazhuang, and it will take time to investigate one by one.
"Please rest assured, the hall master has a slight eyebrow now, and there are only two villages left that have not yet been clarified, and there will be clues soon." Seventeen Niang replied, her eyes staring at the injuries on Xuanye Gongzi's body.
The blood is still flowing, it's just not so fast.
"If there is any news, report it immediately." Xuanye Gongzi said.
"Don't worry, hall master!" Seventeen Niang said.
There are still two villages that have not been clarified, so will there be news soon?
Ziyan, brother, will I be able to see you soon?
Xuanye Gongzi smiled sadly, closed his eyes, and seemed to see that when he was a child, he was still a child, and his two younger sisters with pigtails were smiling at him.
Zi Yan......
Xuanye Gongzi chuckled, but felt that it was dark in front of him, and the whole person fell to the ground.
"Hall Master!" Seventeen Niang exclaimed.
On the trees, a few birds and finches combing their feathers seemed to be frightened, fluttered their wings, and flew away towards the sky.
Zhongwang Mansion, Tinglan Garden.
Because of sleeping all afternoon, Ru Xuan couldn't sleep at this time, and after tossing and turning in bed for a while, she simply came to the soft stool in front of the window and sat down.
"Miss Ru Xuan, if you find it boring, do you want to read a book?" The maid Qing'er came over with a few thread-bound books and asked.
Ru Xuan glanced at it.
It's not the so-called Hongru masterpieces, they are all fiction books that are relatively easy to understand, and Ru Xuan suddenly became a little interested.
"Thank you." Ru Xuan took it and said with a smile.
"The girl is serious, these are the things that slaves and maids should do." Qing'er lowered her head and said, and flicked the candle in the octagonal palace lamp next to the soft stool, and the surroundings suddenly looked brighter.
Ru Xuan was very satisfied with Qing'er's thoughtful and considerate behavior, so she asked her to go down to rest first, and when she needed to serve, she would be called.
Qing'er knew that Ru Xuan didn't like to be disturbed, so she opened the door and went out.
Ru Xuan held the book and read it for a long time.
It's the end of August, and although the heat has long since receded, it's night, so I won't feel hot.
But after a room of candles burning, after a long time, Ru Xuan felt a little stuffy.
With the window at hand, Ru Xuan put down the book and reached out to push the window open.
The cool breeze blew in suddenly, Ru Xuan crouched in front of the window, and suddenly felt refreshed, so she simply leaned out half of her body to enjoy the coolness of the night, as well as the faint orchid fragrance emitted by the many orchids in the courtyard.
"Hmm~"
Ru Xuan sniffed fiercely, let out a long sigh of relief, and suddenly felt more comfortable.
The courtyard is full of orchids, the jungle rustles in the distance, and next to the house, there are tall plane trees, and the moonlight pours through the mottled cracks, looking hazy like a dream.
"Here, it's good." Ru Xuan supported her head with one hand, looked at the quiet scenery in the courtyard, and couldn't help but sigh.
"If you like it, you can stay here forever, okay?"
Faintly, such a sentence suddenly sounded.
Ru Xuan, who was taken aback, was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously asked, "Who, who's there?" (To be continued......)
