Chapter 205: Retribution
Xiaocha is right, sure enough, the medicine is sent day by day, and it is directly handed over to Du Zhong's hands, and others don't seem to have any other ideas.
I don't know exactly how Xiaocha did it.
But the New Year is approaching, the snow of Qianyang is falling almost every day, but it is much colder than the king of the Great Shadow, I don't know why, Xueli is even more reluctant to go out now, just stay in the post house and are too lazy to move, as for Yisu, it seems that he is really not in a hurry to go back, and he harasses Xueli for half a day every day, but the remaining half a day is nowhere to be seen.
After all, his identity is special, and no one can control him, so let him go.
"Master, tomorrow will be the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve." Pei Zhi said to Cheng Rang.
After recuperating from his injuries for more than half a month, Cheng Rang looked like he had recovered a little bit of his former look.
"Hmm." Cheng Rang nodded, and said nothing else.
"The three princes of this great seclusion, this purpose is not pure." Pei Zhi said while peeling grapes for Cheng Rang.
Cheng Rang's eyes all fell on the grapes that Pei folded and peeled, as if he had peeled grapes for Xiaocha in the past.
So he took over Pei Zhe's work and started himself.
"Master?" Pei Zhe was a little puzzled, what happened to Cheng Rang.
"Shh Cheng Rang made a silent gesture, Pei Zhi had no choice, he could only watch Cheng Rang finish peeling a whole plate of grapes, and then push it in front of Pei Zhe.
"For me?" Pei Zhi pointed at himself, and there was a look of disbelief in his tone.
He just wanted to reach out and get it, but was knocked out by Cheng Rang:
"Give it to Xiaocha."
"Okay." Pei Zhen felt a little remorse in his heart, he should have found out a long time ago, after all, Cheng Rang couldn't be so polite to himself.
According to Cheng Rang's instructions, Pei Zhi obediently sent Cheng Rang's hand-peeled grapes to Xiaocha's house, these days, the relationship between Pei Zhi and Cheng Ji has eased a lot, and when Pei Zhe handed over the things to Cheng Ji, Cheng Ji didn't say anything and accepted it.
"Your master, how are you doing?" At this time, Pei Zhe, who was probing his brain into the house, looked like he was still a little gossipy.
"The Eighth Prince asked you to ask?" Cheng Ji looked at Pei Zhe's appearance and asked.
"It's just my own curiosity." Pei Zhi raised his fingers and looked serious.
At this time, Cheng Ji said a heart-wrenching but also truthful statement:
"It's fine without your master."
Xiaocha didn't mention Cheng Rang in front of Cheng Ji again, and he didn't dare to say it.
"Okay." It should be an expected answer, but Pei Zhe was still a little disappointed.
"It's delivered, I'm leaving." Stuffing the food box in his hand into Cheng Ji's hand, Pei Zhi said to Cheng Ji.
"Okay, leave it to me." These days, Cheng Rang also sent a lot of things, originally at the beginning, Cheng Ji didn't dare to accept it, but after Mr. Ling saw it one day, he asked Cheng Ji to accept it consistently, although I don't know why, but Cheng Ji still did it.
But now I didn't expect that Cheng Rang would even give away such things as peeled grapes, but Cheng Ji still shrugged his shoulders and asked someone to send the grapes to Xiaocha.
"It's peeled off." Xiaocha picked up one and tasted it lightly.
This time, Cheng Ji was a little nervous, and he didn't know if Xiao Cha would eat it, but the expression on Xiao Cha's face was the same, and there was nothing abnormal.
This reassured Chengji.
"Tomorrow is the New Year, are you ready?" Xiaocha put down the hand holding the grapes and asked Chengji.
"Don't worry, master, all the New Year's goods for everyone are ready."
Now, strictly speaking, it can be regarded as the first year of Langluo City in Qianyang, and it is also the first year that Xiaocha spent in Qianyang with Mr. Ling Chengji as the city lord of Langluo City, so naturally it can't be so perfunctory.
Everyone is waiting for the new year to come, as if it were going to be able to start again.
But except for one person.
"Lord, master..."The atmosphere in Prince Ning's Mansion has been solemn these days, and no one dares to be too lively, for fear of accidentally touching Ren Qixiu's brows.
As for what made Ren Qixiu keep this expression.
On that day, the emperor summoned Ren Qixiu into the palace, not for anything else, but for Ren Qixiu to willingly hand over the opportunity to sacrifice to the sky on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month to Ren Chenlin.
According to the emperor, although Ren Tingyou is not able to preside over this matter, it stands to reason that it should be Ren Qixiu, but this year's situation is special, after all, it is necessary to take into account the concealment of Princess Xueli and Yisu, and I still hope that it is best to be brought by Ren Chenlin, so as to show that the emperor likes Da You.
Ren Qixiu was naturally very difficult to accept in his heart.
The emperor is going to pave the way for Ren Chenlin again.
Besides, this matter that has been decided a long time ago will be changed now, and where should he put his face, not to mention, Ren Qixiu does not believe that the emperor will not know anything about his current situation.
Originally, the matter of Princess Xueli made him lose face enough, and now the emperor is depriving him of the only chance to get back face, so the emperor really doesn't value him so much.
There is also the matter of Ren Qizhi, I didn't see Ren Qizhi when I entered Beijing this time, and the emperor remembered it again, so he wanted to implicate himself.
Ren Qixiu was a little unacceptable in front of the emperor for a while, and he was speechless.
The emperor looked at it and understood what he meant, and patted Ren Qixiu on the shoulder:
"Don't worry, there will be many opportunities like this in the future."
Obviously, the emperor is going to give up Ren Tingyou, but this long-awaited news, Ren Qixiu didn't hear half a bit of joy at the moment, he only felt that the emperor was just perfunctory.
"The retainers obeyed." Ren Qixiu couldn't say anything else at the moment.
This is the only way to retire.
Father-in-law Hao looked at Ren Qixiu's face from the side, and he felt really shocked.
Looking at it like this, Ren Qixiu doesn't want to give up.
"Let's go, let's go see Yifei." Yesterday, the emperor also promoted Yi Concubine to concubine, and the mother and son of the six princes were all in the palace for a while.
"Yes." Gonggong Hao thought that the emperor had offended the original two princes, and now he had started the road of a new prince.
But he couldn't say anything more, so he had to follow the emperor's wishes.
Come to think of it, Prince Ning can still figure it out by himself silently like before.
But this kick disappointed Grandpa Hao.
Ren Qixiu has been closed since he left the palace, without any good face, Ren Qixiu really can't figure out where he is unworthy.
The emperor, and everyone want to humiliate themselves again and again.
"The person who asked you to arrange it, has it been arranged?" At this moment, Ren Qixiu finally asked one of his subordinates.
"It's already in place, please rest assured." was named by Ren Qixiu, and there was also a trace of apprehension in that person's heart, but he still hurriedly said to him.
"Tomorrow is the Chinese New Year." Ren Qixiu played with the walnuts in his hand, and the words he said dragged out his tone, and the man understood and said to Ren Qixiu with certainty:
"Don't worry, they won't survive this year."
"Hmm." Ren Qixiu sat on the Taishi's chair, waiting for the reply of tonight's good news.
Xueli sent Yisu away again, and Du Zhong said beside Xueli:
"Princess, what are the three princes going to do?"
Not only in the snow, Du Zhong also felt that Yisu's behavior was really a little weird.
"What does he want to do, how can we manage it?" Yuri emptied her brain at the moment and didn't think about anything.
Du Zhong understands that Xueli's mood has not been too good recently, and he is reluctant to speak at the moment, and he can understand it.
But in the snow, you can't be so depressed forever.
"Who." Du Zhong just wanted to speak, Du Zhong and Xue Li talked, but their eyes noticed that there seemed to be a figure passing by on the trees in the courtyard.
With Du Zhong's voice, Yukiri also stood up and observed the outside.
Sure enough, there are people.
Du Zhong followed the man, it was late at night, there were no others in the courtyard, most of them were guarding outside, after Du Zhong left, Xue Li understood that this was also a plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, because in front of him at this moment, there was a woman in black standing at this moment.
"With you, you want to kill me too?" Yukiri looked at the woman, although she was wearing a mask, but who it was, Yukiri was clear.
"Don't be overpowered, princess." Xiao Yue endured for many days, and finally, found an opportunity, and stood in front of Xueli openly.
"Who doesn't do it for themselves?" Xueli's attack on Xiao Yue in front of him at this moment is obviously more than enough, and even when he is dodging, he can still respond to Xiao Yue, and even better, he didn't fight back at all.
Obviously, Xueli's martial arts have the upper hand, at this moment, Xiao Yue's moves are like tickling, Xueli wants to laugh in her heart, the person's martial arts just now seem to be okay, but it is just to take Du Zhong away and let Xiao Yue assassinate him, what does the person behind the scenes think, is it just Xiao Yue's hatred for himself.
In this way, it is really too pediatric.
But then, there was a hint of anomaly in the snow.
Xiao Yue attacked herself, and the words in her mouth seemed to be a little impermanent, and Xueli even found that Xiao Yue's whole mental state seemed to be a little wrong, as if she wanted to kill Xueli, it was not more of a wish, but a purpose, Xiao Yue could only say a few words:
"Kill you, kill you, you deserve to die!"
Obviously, if Xiao Yue can win today, she is afraid that it will only depend on her madness.
Xueli has no intention of continuing to entangle with Xiao Yue, and wants to solve it quickly.
But at this moment, Du Zhong came back very timely.
"Princess, you go in, and I'll take care of the rest." Du Zhong said to the snow.
Since this is the case, Xueli did not hesitate, and when Xiaoyue was a little stunned when she heard Du Zhong's voice, Du Zhong took the opportunity to replace Xueli's position.
However, Xueli did not rush back, but watched the fight between the two at the door.
Suddenly, a person came, Xiao Yue naturally refused to give up, and then saw that Xueli had no intention of going back, and when she fought with Du Zhong, she went towards Xueli.
And Du Zhong wants to take care of both parties, which is inevitably a little difficult.
"Princess, be careful!" Du Zhong saw that when Xiao Yue's sword was about to approach Xueli's throat, he hurriedly tried to block it, but in the end, he was stabbed in the arm by Xiao Yue under the madness.
Ignoring anything else, Du Zhong hurriedly closed the door in the snow and concentrated on fighting with Xiao Yue.
Xiao Yue's martial arts are too inferior, and it is really not enough to see at the moment, that is, he directly has the upper hand, and he is about to fail.
Du Zhong showed a hint of excitement on his face at this moment, as long as he had two swords, he could take Xiao Yue's life.
But his chest was pierced by a sword at the moment.
Coming from the rear, Du Zhong used his last strength to submerge his sword into Xiao Yue's chest.
"Princess..."
Du Zhong would never have thought until he died, how could Xueli secretly kill him.
"He's not dead, it's your turn." Xueli looked at Du Zhong's eyes, not indifferent at the moment, but hateful.
