Chapter Forty-Eight: Murong Zhan Accepts Chai Liu
One of them, a stout man, dressed in a robe made of tiger skin, bare his chest, and the autumn breeze was bleak, and he didn't feel cold.
He had a longitudinal scar on his face from the brow bone to his face, and his already fierce face was even more terrifying because of this scar.
Scarface looked at Murong Zhan and arched his hand at him, "In the Great Master of the Lower Heavenly Wolf Village, which way is Your Excellency from?" What does it mean to break into my village and hurt my brother? ”
Murong Zhan sneered, "Hmph! I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you! Hurry up and hand over the woman you arrested today! ”
Scarface looked at a bald man next to him, who was thin and a little obscene-looking, with blue under his two eyes, and he looked overindulgent.
"Second brother, who did you arrest again?"
The bald man scratched his head, his eyes a little evasive, "I just grabbed a woman at random on the street." ”
Scarface looked at the group of brothers who had just gotten up from the ground, their noses were bruised and their faces were swollen and their bodies were still painted, and then looked at the bald man, his eyes full of suspicion, "Are you sure you really caught a random woman?" ”
The bald man straightened his back, but his tone was still a little empty, "That little lady said what kind of princess she is, but what princess will come to this small county town where birds don't!" ”
"Princess?!" Scarface's voice raised a little, and he looked at Murong Zhan, who was looking at the bald man with a playful face, and was shocked, the second child is not very much in the accident world on weekdays, but he is clear that the Duke of Nanyuan is going to marry Donglin, and he is the person who will be picked up by Prince Kang of the capital.
From Nanyuan to the capital, Yanglan County is a must-pass location, damn it! Forget about it! He should have reminded the second child! Looking at this situation, coupled with the words of the second child, most of the second child is the princess Jiarong, so the person in front of him must be His Royal Highness King Kang.
Murong Zhan looked at the bald man who was frightened for a while and straightened his back and pretended to be fine, smiled, and said, "So, she showed her identity, and you still arrested her, so, what did you do to her?" ”
Scarface's eyes kept turning, and finally settled on Murong Zhan, he raised a smile, just because of the existence of his scar, this smile looked a little infiltrating, he stepped forward and arched his hand: "I don't know if His Royal Highness King Kang has arrived, and the little one is far away." ”
Murong Zhan hooked his lips, "What, do you recognize it?" ”
The bald man's face was shocked, broken! Did you really catch a princess?
The bald man was a little stunned in his heart, but he was still stubborn, "What nonsense is the eldest brother talking about, what kind of prince can this kid be, he must be bluffing you!" In my opinion, he should be the old friend of that little girl! ”
Scarface looked at the bald man who was still there and yelled angrily, "Shut up! He walked up to the bald man and kicked him in the stomach, "Grandma's, you idiot!" If you want to die, don't take Lao Tzu with you! Tell me, where did you take the princess, and what did you do to her? ”
The bald man usually takes into account the brotherhood of this scarred face, and turns a blind eye to him, and the brothers in the village also rely on him to have some friendship with the governor of Liuzhou Mansion, so he is also a little unscrupulous. However, Scarface was still afraid of the imperial court in his heart.
The bald man was kicked by him, but he also reacted, and quickly knelt down, "Big brother, I didn't do anything to her, that little lady ......" He glanced at Scarface's gloomy gaze, and his words changed, "That princess has some kung fu, I really didn't do anything to her, and besides, it's too late......"
Hearing that the princess was unharmed, Scarface breathed a sigh of relief, and then kicked it over again, damn, it's really cowardly!
"Hurry up and let them go!"
The bald man scrambled to his feet, "Good! I'll go! ”
Scarface looked at Murong Zhan, Murong Zhan showed a modest smile at him, saying that modesty was a little reluctant, at least in Scarface's opinion, his smile was not modest at all, but revealed Sensen's coldness.
A moment later, the bald man came out with Jiarong, who walked in front with a swagger, and he walked behind her. Her veil was torn off when she was taken away by the bald man, revealing her appearance, a goose egg face like white jade, under the eyebrows of the distant mountains are Danfeng eyes that look like a clear spring, and her bright facial features have the unique heroic spirit of a Nanyuan woman.
She looked at Murong Zhan, her face showed surprise, and she hurriedly ran to Murong Zhan, pulled his sleeve, and said coquettishly, "Why are you here?" I'm so scared! ”
The bald man was scared when he heard her, and he only felt that there were three black lines hanging from his head, Auntie, before you say this, should you think about how you knocked my brothers to the ground? He was also startled when he went in just now, the rope that had been tied to her was untied somehow, and his brother was lying on the ground with a blue nose and swollen face, and she was also standing at the door when he opened the door.
Murong Zhan quietly withdrew his sleeve and said to her, "The princess is frightened. ”
Jiarong looked down at the sleeve that had been removed from his hand, his eyes darkened, and then he raised a smile and said, "Lord Wang, I haven't worn a veil yet, do you want me to go out like this?" ”
When Murong Zhan heard this, he put his hand into his arms, hesitated for a moment, took out a veil, and handed it to Jiarong, "Use this first, remember to return it to me when you go back." ”
Jiarong took the veil, was stunned for a moment and put it on her face, she moved her nose, smelled a faint fragrance of herbs, she felt a little panicked in her heart, but she still pretended to be relaxed and said: "Why does His Royal Highness King Kang carry a woman's things with him, isn't it his sweetheart?" ”
Murong Zhan glanced at her and didn't speak, this veil was secretly taken by him, Lu Wanting didn't know, he would take it out when he missed her, and now he had no choice but to take it to Jiarong first.
"Her Royal Highness the princess will go back first, this king still has some things to deal with."
"Won't you take me back? Shouldn't it be important to protect me? ”
"I have my own guards to protect the princess when she goes back, and this king does have something to deal with."
When Murong Zhan said this, his eyes looked at the two of Scarface, and when they noticed Murong Zhan's gaze, their faces changed.
Jiarong noticed Murong Zhan's gaze at the two of Scarface, and smiled, "If you dare to bully this princess, you must make them look good, especially the bald one, don't be polite to him!" After saying that, she left without looking back.
When the bald man heard Jiarong's words just now, he showed a smile that was more ugly than crying, and Scarface looked at Murong Zhan with flickering eyes, secretly thinking about how he would treat the two of them.
Murong Zhan's right hand slowly moved to the sword in the hand of the guard beside him, held the hilt, and then pulled it out quickly and powerfully, and then slowly walked towards the bald man with the sword.
The bald man looked at Murong Zhan walking towards him, swallowed his saliva, looked at Scarface with a pleading look, Scarface showed an ugly face, blocked in front of the bald man, looked at Murong Zhan, and asked, "What does Lord Kang mean by this?" ”
Murong Zhan looked at him with indifferent eyes, and said emotionlessly: "Vainly trying to infect Princess Guiyuan and destroy the marriage between the two countries, what do you think this king means?" ”
"But he didn't do it." Scarface frowned and replied.
"Either he dies, or the entire Heavenly Wolf Village is completely destroyed." Murong Zhan's cold tone sounded.
Scarface lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then looked at the bald man with apologetic eyes, the bald man understood what he meant, and felt a little broken, "Big brother! ”
At the moment when Scarface put down his hand, Murong Zhan's sword passed through the bald man's chest, and the bald man's last moment of eyes was looking at Scarface, there were doubts and hatred in it, but more importantly, remorse.
Scarface caught the fallen bald man, his eyes were a little moist, brother, I'm sorry, but I can't watch a whole village of brothers die because of you.
Murong Zhan handed the sword to the guard, looked at Scarface, and said, "It seems that you have made a wise decision. ”
Scarface looked up at Murong Zhan, "What else do you want to do?" ”
"You have made your choice, and this king will not do anything to your stockade again. However, this king admires you very much, why don't you consider following me? ”
"What's the benefit of following you?"
Murong Zhan chuckled, "Let this king think about it, it's better to ...... Remove all your brothers' criminal records first? ”
Scarface suddenly looked up at Murong Zhan, "Do you have a way?" ”
These people are all carrying murder cases, and the court has a record of the case, so they can only live incognito, no one is born to be a bad person, and they don't want to be like today. If they can remove all the criminal records, then they can live under the sun again.
Murong Zhan smiled and said, "In addition to these, this king can give you more!" ”
Scarface put down the bald man's corpse, stood up and replied, "Okay, I'm willing to follow you, but you have to do what you say!" ”
"Once the word is spoken, the horse is hard to chase!"
"Good!" Scarface agreed heavily, knelt down in front of Murong Zhan, clasped his fists and said, "Subordinate Chai Liu, swear to follow His Royal Highness King Kang to the death!" ”
Seeing that the boss was kneeling, the rest of the Heavenly Wolf Village also knelt down, and shouted in unison at Murong Zhan: "I will follow His Royal Highness King Kang to the death!" ”
Murong Zhan took a step forward and helped Chai Liu up, "Okay!" This king will not do you any wrong! ”
After subduing Chai Liu, Murong Zhan left the Heavenly Wolf Village with satisfaction and returned to the Dong Mansion. Chai Liu did not follow him, he was sent to Liuzhou Mansion to find the Liuzhou Mansion Yin, and asked him to persuade him to join him under his command and be responsible for the black yarn hat!
The princess came back safely, Murong Zhan didn't dare to delay any longer, and the next day he ordered everyone to set off to return to Beijing, no longer stopping on the way, and arrived in the capital in two days.
The Ministry of Rites had already prepared everything, Murong Zhan was also relieved, after settling Jiarong, Murong Zhan entered the palace non-stop, and reported to his father that Princess Jiarong had arrived in the capital safely, as for the princess's distress, he concealed it, Murong Xuancheng just nodded lightly and said, "The sixth child has worked hard, I am deeply grateful." You have been driving all the way, go back to rest first, and you will come with Princess Jiarong when she enters the palace tomorrow. ”
"Yes, the retainers are retired."
Murong Zhan is used to Murong Xuancheng's attitude, he has always treated himself like this, anyway, he doesn't care. He told himself that he should not have any unrealistic expectations of his father since the incident with his leg.
Back at King Kang's Mansion, Murong Zhan was finally able to rest for a while, and accidentally fell asleep while bathing, fortunately Huayang came in time, otherwise he would probably be infected with the wind and cold, and changed his clothes again, Murong Zhan turned around and was about to go out to find Lu Wanting, but Huayang stopped him.
"What's the matter?"
Huayang wanted to speak and stopped, not daring to raise his head. Murong Zhan frowned, "What the hell is going on?" ”
Huayang knelt down with a "poof", "Your Highness, King An, you are going to be crowned the crown prince!" ”
"What? Why didn't you say it earlier? ”
"I wanted to say it when His Highness first came back, but when you entered the palace again, I wanted to wait for His Highness to come back......" Huayang's voice became smaller and smaller.
"When? Why not send a message? Murong Zhan asked as he tried his best to calm his emotions.
"Half a month ago. I have sent a messenger, but His Highness does not seem to have received it. ”
Half a month ago, at that time, it was Princess Jiarong who was playing everywhere and deviated from the original route to Beijing, Huayang didn't know about it, and thought that it was at that time that he missed the news.
Damn it? What the hell is going on?!
