Chapter 714: King Xiang's Suspicion
King Xiang nodded, and at this moment, his expression also showed a bit of anger, and he said: "These bandits from Fenghu Village have plagued the people in the past few years, and this time, they dare to hit the attention of our King Xiang's Mansion, which is simply unbearable." ”
Saying that, he endangered Shangguan Yan'er: "Don't worry, Yan'er, I will definitely give you this breath." ”
Then, King Xiang looked back at me. smiled, and then asked: "I'm also curious, although the two of you are extraordinary, but there are many bandits in Nafeng Lake Village, just rely on the two of you, how to recapture this Baguio plate." ”
When he said these words at this moment, his expression clearly revealed a bit of suspicion. At the same time, Shangguan Yan'er also frowned and looked at me and Xiao Qi.
"Hehe, it seems that the county lord and His Excellency King Xiang don't believe in our brothers anymore." Looking at their expressions, I guessed what was going on in their minds. At this moment, he smiled slightly, and said bluntly: "If you think that we have taken back the Baguio plate and cannot gain your trust, then I have nothing to say." ”
"Little brother is not excited, I'm just a little curious." Seeing me say this, King Xiang was stunned. He smiled and said softly.
"Whew!"
At this time, Xiao Qi and I glanced at each other, then exhaled, and slowly spoke: "Actually, when we returned to Nafeng Lake Village. Fenghu Village has been infiltrated by others" Immediately after, I told myself and Xiao Qi in detail what I heard outside the bearded residence, as well as what happened to the masked man.
In the end, I glanced at the Baguio plate in King Xiang's hand, smiled and continued to speak: "Speaking of which, this Baguio plate is not what we took from the bandit leader, but from the masked man's hand halfway. ”
Suddenly, hearing my narration, King Xiang and Shangguan Yan'er were stunned, and then the two looked at each other, and their seemingly calm faces flashed with deep shock and disbelief.
"You said that the mysterious man killed the head of Fenghu Village at that time, and claimed to be a person from the Sword Saint Palace?" After a few seconds, King Xiang regained his composure and asked intently as he stared at me.
I nodded: "Yes, my brother and I were outside at the time, and we heard it clearly, the big boss of the Fenghu Village." said that the other party was a person from the Sword Saint Palace, and his identity did not seem to be low. Fenghu Village attacked the people of your Xiangwang Mansion and snatched the Baguio plate, which was done by the people of the Sword Saint Palace, who spent a lot of money and hired the people of Fenghu Village, but after the Baguio plate was obtained, in order to prevent this matter from leaking out, the masked man killed Fenghu Village. ”
"Impossible, how can you be a person from the Sword Saint Palace?" At this time, as soon as my voice fell, Shangguan Yan'er opened her mouth excitedly, and her expression was even more indescribably complicated, obviously not believing my words.
"My eldest brother never tells lies, believe it or not." At this time, looking at Shangguan Yan'er's excited appearance, Xiao Qi couldn't help it and spoke.
And at this moment, King Xiang was also pondering, and his expression was very solemn.
At this time, in this side hall, with everyone's silence, it suddenly became solemn and depressed.
"Your Excellency. I want to ask, your King Xiang Mansion and Sword Saint Palace" At this time, I was also a little confused, but from the reactions of King Xiang and Shangguan Yan'er, it was not difficult for me to guess that this King Xiang Mansion and Sword Saint Palace must have a lot to do with each other.
"Hehe, our Xiangwang Mansion and the Sword Saint Palace have all the dealings, and they are very friendly, the situation you just said, according to reason, is completely impossible to happen." King Xiang pondered for a moment, and then spoke.
I was stunned for a moment, then thought about it for a few seconds, and then slowly spoke: "Anyway, I have already said the situation, as for the reason, you may be able to investigate!" ”
King Xiang nodded, and then called two attendants: "Invite two guests, go and rest." ”
Saying that, King Xiang said to me and Xiao Qi: "Two little brothers, no matter what, Baguio Pan you helped me find it back, and also saved the little girl from trouble, this king is grateful, at this time it is late at night, so please ask the two of you to rest temporarily, and we will meet again tomorrow, how about it?" ”
Nima, I'm waiting for that. He nodded, followed the two attendants with Xiao Qi, and went to the back room to rest.
At this moment, seeing me and Xiao Qi walking out of the side hall, Shangguan Yan'er frowned and said to King Xiang: "Dad, you really believe the two of them, I think the identities of these two people are very suspicious." ”
King Xiang nodded: "I also feel it, these two people have very raw faces, they shouldn't be from our Beiliang Kingdom." ”
As he spoke, King Xiang called two guards and ordered: "You guys hurry up, quietly go to Fenghu Village to investigate, and come back as soon as there is news!" ”
"Yes!"
Hearing the order, the two guards immediately set off.
Seeing the two guards leaving, King Xiang and Shangguan Yan'er stopped talking, sitting in the side hall thinking about their thoughts, half an hour passed, the two guards returned in the dust, and at the same time told King Xiang about the investigation.
"The people in Fenghu Village have all been assassinated?" Hearing the news, King Xiang frowned.
"Yes, Lord Wang." At this time, one of the guards slowly spoke: "When we arrived, there were no living people in Fenghu Village, and most of those bandits were poisoned to death. Finally we crept in and found the body of the big man, who had several deep wounds from the sword. ”
At this moment, another personal guard also spoke: "At that time, we carefully examined the wound and looked at the technique, which was like the sword move of the Sword Saint Palace. ”
Hearing the words of the two guards, King Xiang frowned, his expression became more solemn, so he waved his hand and let the two guards go down.
And this time. Shangguan Yan'er was stunned, as if she couldn't believe it was true. After a few seconds, he spoke: "Dad, are you really from the Sword Saint Palace, but our King Xiang Mansion and the Sword Saint Palace both serve the Beiliang Emperor, why does the Sword Saint Palace plot against us?" “
The Sword Saint Palace is a famous cultivation sect in the Northern Liang Kingdom, and its suzerain is a sword saint appointed by the emperor of the Northern Liang Kingdom. Although King Xiang is not the younger brother of Emperor Beiliang, he was named a prince because of his military exploits, which can be regarded as a noble status. Speaking of which, both sides served the emperor of the Northern Liang Kingdom and had a good relationship, which made Shangguan Yan'er very puzzled.
At this time, King Xiang also frowned and pondered, and finally waved his hand: "You go to rest first, this matter." Dad, take your time to check. ”
Shangguan Yan'er answered, and went back to her room with a depressed expression.
And at this time, on our side, after Xiao Qi and I were taken into the rest room, watching the attendants leave, Xiao Qi couldn't help but say: "It's really annoying, we spent so much effort to help them get things back, and that King Xiang and that woman still don't believe us." ”
Saying that, Xiao Qi continued indignantly: "Big brother. Let's go, I don't like to deal with this kind of person. ”
I smiled bitterly and said: "Wait a minute, see what this King Xiang says tomorrow, if he is still suspicious of us, then we will leave immediately, if the attitude is good, we will stay for the time being, although this King Xiang is only a prince, but the power is not small, with his connections, he will definitely find a way to let us return to the previous world." ”
"Okay!" Seeing me say this, although Xiao Qi was a little reluctant in his heart, he still nodded.
After saying this, I just lay on the bed, closed my eyes and recuperated, but Xiao Qi was still very energetic, when I closed my eyes to rest, Xiao Qi was sitting on a chair by the window, holding his cheeks with one hand, staring blankly at the night outside.
The next day, King Xiang specially set up a banquet to entertain us, after everything was full of wine and food, King Xiang specially took me and Xiao Qi to visit the huge King Xiang Mansion.
When I finally arrived at a secluded small garden, at the signal of King Xiang, the attendants around him quietly retreated, and at this time, King Xiang's smiling face also became calm at this moment, his eyes looked carefully at me and Xiao Qi, and slowly said: "If my guess is right, the two of you are not from our Beiliang Kingdom, right?" ”
