"Who are you looking for?"

Balm opened the door a crack, his eyes wary as he watched the stranger knocking on the door.

This was a young man who looked like a noble son, and in Balm's memory, he did not know him, and he did not have the slightest impression of the other party in his mind.

The young man smiled, and looked very polite, but the first words he uttered made Balm instantly refresh.

"Bastard."

"What?" Balm said in a low voice, as if he was puzzled.

"Bastard."

Again, the young man emphasized.

This time, Balm was sure that he was a friend of the young master Tirrant who was going to come to the door, and when Tillant was wounded and hiding in Balm's house, he had told him that if one day, a stranger who shouted "bastard" came to visit, there was no doubt that he was the one he was waiting for.

"Please come in."

Balm opened the door, but the corner of his eyes unconsciously glanced behind the young man, the search of the royal capital magistrates these days had obviously filled him with enough caution, although the search momentum had gradually subsided, but this was not a reason for him to relax.

When she was led into the living room, Xia Lan looked around casually, concise and clean. He had heard Tirrant say that this was the house of his father's old butler, and as a housekeeper of a noble family, he must have had a good life in life, but the scene in front of him was somewhat inconsistent with reality.

"Please use tea."

Balm placed the brewed hot tea on the table, although he was old, but every detail of his movements was very courteous, and the etiquette of the aristocratic family who had been dressed for many years had long been a habit in his life.

After thanking her, Xia Lan gently blew the faint white mist of the hot tea in the cup, and drank it in her mouth, although the tea quality is average, but the taste has another uniqueness, I think it is the relationship between the tea making technique.

"I wonder what happened to this young master coming to visit today?" Balm asked knowingly.

"I've got something to talk about with Tirrant." Xia Lan was very direct and clear.

Balm nodded, it didn't seem that he was wrong, he was indeed the person that Young Master Tirrant was waiting for.

"I'm sorry to wait a minute."

With that, Balm silently left the drawing-room, and Charan knew that he was going to ask Tilland if he had seen him.

When the cup of hot tea was gone, Balm reappeared.

"Please come with me, Master Tirrant has promised to see you."

Following in Balm's footsteps, the two left the living room and walked to a small courtyard outside the back door, where a vegetable field was not cultivated like some normal people planted with bright flowers and plants.

In addition, there is a poorly built house in the corner of the courtyard, which makes the whole yard even more crowded and cramped.

When you open the door to the room, you will see a mess of miscellaneous tools, which appear to be a storage room.

In a room that could be filled with only three people, Xia Lan did not enter, but quietly watched the old man outside the door, because there was no reason for him to bring him here.

Soon, the old man's next action immediately attracted Xia Lan's attention.

He gently moved a wooden board placed on the floor of the room, holding a small hammer in his hand that seemed to be hitting something on the ground, and after a while, Xia Lan's eyes lit up, so it was.

The old man lifted a stone slab on the ground, and a pitch-black hole appeared in front of him in an instant.

The old man withdrew from the room and said humbly to Xia Lan outside the door, "Young Master Tirland is waiting for you below. ”

Xia Lan nodded, and without saying a word, she walked towards the narrow hole, and after a careful observation for a moment, Xia Lan bowed and jumped in.

……

In the narrow passage, the slight light embedded in the wall illuminated the vision, Xia Lan walked quietly, he found that in addition to the fishy smell of the earth, a faint fresh air flow continued to pour into the mouth and nose, this was not a completely confined space.

At the end, the passage suddenly became wider, and the line of sight of the light became brighter, and Xia Lan saw that there was a person there, a person who was looking at him.

"Who are you?" Tillant asked, sitting on a wooden chair, looking at the strange young man who appeared in front of him.

"Your collaborator."

Charan understood why Tirrant was asking such questions, when they met that day, Charan was in disguise, not revealing his true form to him, and this time, he was not going to disguise.

"What about his people?" Tirlandt nodded, his gaze constantly looking at Xia Landao.

"He's got some tricky things to deal with, and I'm afraid I won't be able to meet you for this time."

Under the pretext of lying, Xia Lan's correspondence seemed quite calm and calm.

"Can you represent him?"

Tirrant's eyes narrowed, he hadn't seen him for many days, and his body had become a little emaciated, as if the wound in his abdomen had not healed, and his face looked strangely pale in the light.

"Yes."

"This time, he asked you to come over, presumably something happened to find me, right?"

"That's right."

"What's the matter?"

"He threw himself into His Royal Highness the Great Prince."

"Huh?"

Tirrant was shocked, his expression became solemn, and his eyes looking at Xia Lan began to be vigilant, wary.

"What does he want to do?"

"It's just cooperation, just like you." Xia Lan said flatly.

Tillant scoffed, laughing at the man's decision, "Did he forget what happened to me?" ”

"He said he wasn't you." Xia Lan looked at Tirrant and said seriously, "As long as the result is in our favor, some things don't really matter. ”

Tirrant snorted coldly, and his words were a little sarcastic, "Presumably he has already sold me to the Great Prince, right?" ”

"At least your safety can be guaranteed, or do you think you can hide here in peace forever?" Xia Lan said sarcastically. "You're also a smart man, and you should know what he wants."

"Helping my brother beat my brother, who doesn't know this kind of thing?" Tillant glanced at Xia Lan and said in a disdainful tone. "Tell me what his new master has brought!"

Xia Lan heard the resentment in Tirrant's heart, being betrayed and betrayed, no one would feel good, even if the betrayal was full of kindness, but betrayal is betrayal!

"Some of the nobles of the royal capital planned to seize you to completely make the fourth prince lose the opportunity to turn over, but the eldest prince did not agree, so he asked me to come over because he was worried about your safety and accidents."

"Accidents? Isn't there an accident now? Tillant looked at Xia Lan and said lightly.

"The eldest prince can't control those nobles." Charan didn't care about Tirrant's sarcasm and said to himself: "If you want revenge, it's better for him to unite with the Great Prince, otherwise we won't have a chance." ”

Tillant chuckled, shook his head and sighed, "I know what he thinks, but I don't want to trust anyone in the royal family." ”

"Sometimes, we have to take risks."

It seems that the behavior of the fourth prince stabbing in the back completely made Tirrant lose trust in everyone in the royal family, even if it is the eldest prince who is the sworn enemy of the fourth prince, although the enemy of the enemy is a friend, the enemy is still an enemy.

In this regard, Xia Lan can only persuade with peace of mind.

"Did he ask you to come and bring anything else?"

After a long silence, Tirrant looked at the light on the wall and was a little distracted, he acquiesced in that person's decision, and he had to compromise with the overall interests first.

"He wants to ask you, how do you view the current situation in the royal capital, and how to gain benefits in this pool of troubled waters!" Xia Lan asked what she was most concerned about.

"Although I have been hiding here for a long time, I have heard from the mouthful of the butler of Balm that the fourth prince has been placed under house arrest in the palace and has not been dealt with for a long time, and I heard that many noble ministers have tried their best to ask the king to do their best to deal with it, but there is no evidence, and they are helpless in the end, at this time, they have also shifted the target to me, so to speak, I will be the key witness to the judgment of the fourth prince."

Tillant rose from his wooden chair and walked up and down the passage unhurriedly, only to speak strangely when he mentioned his own affairs.

"His Majesty the King has his own plans, he will not let the fourth prince be sentenced lightly, if I stand up at this time, I am afraid that I will be secretly murdered before I appear to testify, the eldest prince should be very clear about this, if I am not absolutely sure, he will not release me to testify, so, what he needs to do most now is to keep me safe for the time being."

The corners of Tirrant's mouth hooked up a sneer: "The eldest prince has already become extremely cautious in the shadow of His Majesty the King over the years, and it can even be said that he has lost the courage to resist the battle!" What he wants now must be quietly waiting for the situation to change, anyway, now that he is in the upper hand, as long as he is safe and slowly, it seems that he can control the general trend in the palm of his hand! And me? If things go according to the eldest prince's wishes and reach a satisfactory result, he will definitely hand me over to those victims for execution without mercy! But when the situation is unfavorable to the fourth prince, he will push me out and give the other party a fatal blow, hehe...... No matter what, in the end, I can't escape a dead word! ”

After slowly speaking, Tirrant gave Xia Lan a cold eye, as if he was still haunted by the betrayal.

"What if things go in the direction of the fourth prince?" Charan asked, avoiding Tillant's hostile gaze.

"Then things get interesting."

Tirrant laughed and said, "The eldest prince doesn't want to think about it, why would Volance do such a bad thing for himself, if he is not sure, he would be so stupid to hand over the handle to his enemies?" Wait, he'll do something that no one would ever imagine. ”

Xia Lan frowned slightly after hearing this, and said, "Are you also in favor of waiting for the situation to change?" ”

"Huh?" Tirrant was surprised, "Has anyone ever told him about these things?" ”

"Yes." Xia Lan said dryly.

"It seems that the man understands the current situation." Tirlant nodded, seeming to be quite approving, and said: "Now the muddy water of the royal capital is not something we can stir at all, accidents can happen at any time, once you act rashly, it is likely to encounter a catastrophe!"

Speaking of this, Tirrant sighed deeply: "Many things, we can't help ourselves, and we may even unconsciously become the use of other people's hands, as long as we don't do anything, we can naturally take the opportunity to seize the opportunity to get the desired benefits through unexpected changes in the situation, other than that, we can only wait." ”

He seemed to remember that day, the day when his ideal was about to be realized but shattered in the blink of an eye.

From the moment he chose to agree to cooperate with the fourth prince, his end was already doomed.
