Chapter 258: Ambush
Chai Zixuan sent another spoonful.
Ru Xuan felt that she was no longer a child, and it was really inappropriate to let her brother feed her brother like this, so she blushed slightly and took the bowl: "I'll do it myself." ā
Chai Zixuan obediently handed over the bowl.
Dinner was indeed not full, and now Ru Xuan also felt a little hungry in her stomach, this bowl of lotus leaf soup came at the right time, almost within a moment, the bowl of lotus leaf soup was drunk to the bottom.
After eating, Chai Zixuan took the bowl and put it back on the table quietly.
"My brother didn't eat much for dinner, did my brother eat some more?" Ru Xuan is full now, worried about Chai Zixuan's condition.
"Big brother Fang Cai has already eaten in the study, little sister doesn't have to worry." Chai Zixuan replied with a smile.
Ru Xuan pursed her lips and smiled, and after a while, she asked carefully: "Brother, ...... you?"
"Little sister, don't blame the big brother." Chai Zixuan said suddenly.
Ru Xuan was taken aback at the moment, and she didn't know why Chai Zixuan would highlight this.
Just as she was about to open her mouth to ask, Ru Xuan felt her head sink.
The feeling of grogginess hit the whole world, and Ru Xuan felt that her eyelids were a little heavy and she couldn't open them, and her consciousness slowly blurred.
"Brother......" Ru Xuan raised her hand and desperately grabbed Chai Zixuan's gradually blurred figure.
But she no longer had the strength, and the whole person seemed to have a feeling of falling.
"Brother......" Ru Xuan closed her eyes and muttered to herself.
Chai Zixuan saw that Ru Xuan was about to fall to the ground, and reached out to catch it. Let Ru Xuan lean on her body.
"Ru Xuan, Ru Xuan." Chai Zixuan tentatively called twice.
However, Ru Xuan in her arms seemed to have fallen asleep deeply, and did not react to his shouts at all.
Chai Zixuan looked at Ru Xuan with his eyes closed. frowned slightly, pursed his lips tightly together, and sighed a little unbearably in his heart.
Little sister, don't blame me, the eldest brother is also desperate, so he made this decision.
After a while, Chai Zixuan called: "Someone! ā
Seventeen Niang walked in with a few strong maids and mothers-in-law. But there is no figure of Xiang Nan among them.
"Lord Wang." Seventeen Niang took the lead and walked ahead.
"The county lord is tired, take the county lord down to rest." Chai Zixuan commanded.
"Yes, lord." The next cadre agreed. Seventeen Niang took Ru Xuan from Chai Zixuan's hands, and the others hurriedly stepped forward and carried Ru Xuan to other courtyards.
Chai Zixuan lifted his robe and sat down at the table.
The candle flame on the table picked and jumped. Chai Zixuan was bored. Took scissors and cut off the excess core.
The candle flame lit up a lot at once, and the surrounding area was bright.
After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, Chai Zixuan was a little anxious, but his face was calm, and he couldn't see the slightest ripple.
Finally, after waiting for about a cup of tea, Chai Zixuan faintly felt the slight sound of footsteps and the rustle of bamboo branches in the courtyard being plucked.
Here it comes!
Chai Zixuan sat up straight. Suddenly came the spirit.
The window near the bamboo forest was opened, and there was a "whoosh". A figure deftly came in from the window and appeared in front of Chai Zixuan.
Chai Zixuan hooked his lips and smiled.
King Chung has always been wise, and he never thought that he could be transferred into his trap today.
But when he saw the appearance of the person who came, Chai Zixuan's smile froze on his face, and he couldn't smile anymore anyway.
"Who are you!" Chai Zixuan looked at the thin and tall man in front of him with thin cheeks and immediately asked.
He had never seen this person before, and he didn't know who he was.
The point is, why did this person sneak into Ru Xuan's boudoir, it is really concerning.
"The subordinate dark soul is the servant of the loyal king." The dark soul arched his hand, made a big salute to Chai Zixuan, and said, "Subordinates see Prince Zheng." ā
Chai Zixuan clenched his fists and asked again: "Why did you come here, but you got the orders of King Zhong?" Where is King Chung now? ā
"The prince is waiting outside the mansion at this time, and the prince ordered his subordinates to come and tell King Zheng that my prince likes to be quiet, and he is really not used to so many people accompanying him, so please let King Zheng retreat." The dark soul said word by word.
Chai Zixuan's face turned from white to red, and then to white.
painstakingly set up an ambush, but it was discovered by King Zhong's light yƬ, which is really embarrassing.
Chai Zixuan was a little embarrassed, staring directly at the dark soul.
The dark soul continued expressionlessly: "My prince also said that if Prince Zheng is unwilling, he will not disturb Prince Zheng and Lord Cheshire to rest today. ā
These words are almost straightforward, Rao is Chai Zixuan wants to pretend to be stupid and stunned, I'm afraid he can't.
Chai Zixuan couldn't get down the steps a little, but his face was gloomy and he didn't respond.
Suddenly, the door opened, and Chai Zixuan looked back, but saw King Zhong standing at the door at this time, smiling at him.
"Lord Wang." Before Chai Zixuan could speak to King Zhong, the dark soul first called out a little eagerly.
Didn't he say that he would come first to clear the mess around him, why did the prince suddenly come first?
"It's okay, Dark Soul, you go down first." King Chung commanded, and he walked in.
"However, the prince ......" The dark soul was really worried about the safety of the loyal king, and did not dare to leave him alone to confront Chai Zixuan, and at this time, there was almost tension outside the window, and if he was not careful, his life was worried.
King Chung didn't speak, but his face turned cold and waved his hand to signal the dark soul to go out.
As the bodyguard of the loyal king, the dark soul did not dare to disobey the order, and only said: "Yes, prince." And he went out and stood at the door.
"King Zhong is so bold, and he dares to show up at this time, which is really admirable to Zixuan." Chai Zixuan said lightly.
But these words are in the heart of his heart.
Since King Zhong already knew that an ambush had been set up here at this time, he dared to come out to meet him calmly, and this courage alone was commendable.
"Since the Lord of Cheshire has entrusted someone to pass the word to this king, even if it is a sea of swords, guns and fire, this king will definitely come." King Zhong said indifferently.
Chai Zixuan's heart moved.
King Zhong's matter of Ru Xuan, Chai Zixuan has also heard some outside the palace, putting aside the identity of King Zhong, he is indeed very good to Ru Xuan, and now he has expressed his position again, even if Chai Zixuan wants to be cold to King Zhong, he can't help but be a little moved.
"The Loyal King is a man who keeps his promises." Chai Zixuan's face did not change, still with a slight coldness.
King Chung disagreed, and continued: "It's just that today it should have been the Lord of Cheshire who invited this King to come, but I don't know why King Zheng is here, Lord Cheshire?" ā
"The little sister is tired and sleepy, this king has already ordered someone to send the little sister to rest in another courtyard, and King Zhong is afraid that he will not be able to see the little sister tonight." Chai Zixuan replied. (To be continued......)
