Volume 1 Chapter 2 Expulsion from the House
"Second Prince, you really don't remember?" Steward Yang looked at him with surprised eyes, and there was a deep sadness in his words.
"Lao Yang, aren't you talking nonsense? If I remember, why would I pretend to be unconscious and hide from Princess Lanxin! Xu Xiang glanced at him angrily, when he first woke up, there was only Steward Yang by his side, and he had to keep it secret, even if he was a loyal servant beside him, he couldn't say it.
In order not to be noticed by others, he needs to understand the situation around him for a while.
One person is easy to deceive, but it is more difficult to deceive many people at once. So except for Steward Yang, he didn't want anyone to find out that he had woken up.
Pretending to be unconscious all the time is obviously not a long-term solution, in order to get familiar with it as soon as possible, he must figure out the situation around him, and it is better to "wake up" after he is almost in a coma.
"Ugh." Steward Yang sighed, "That person just now is Nangong Que, the son of Suihou. ”
"Follow? Who is Suihou? ”
"Suihou's name is called Nangong Sui, and he is a descendant of Suiguo."
"The Seven Kingdoms are divided into summers, and there is no Suiguo, right?" Thinking of the historical materials I had read before, it seems that there is no such country as Suiguo.
"Your Royal Highness, this Suiguo is a small country before the Great Xia dominated the world, and it was destroyed by your ancestor Zhennan General Xu Dingshan, the Xuanyuan clan ruled the world at that time, and could not bear to do more killing, so they moved to Linzi City with the royal family, and were named marquises, retaining their wealth and wealth. After the division of the Seven Kingdoms, this is naturally in the hands of the East China Sea Kingdom with the royal family. Steward Yang explained to him.
"It turns out to be the history of the Seven Kingdoms before the summer divination! I said, no wonder Nangong Que spoke so ugly, it turned out that they were destroyed by my ancestors! Xu Xiang nodded, this is probably a natural enemy, right?
"Second Prince, are we going to pack up and leave?" Steward Yang looked at the bamboo slips on the side of the bed and asked.
Xu Xiang stretched out his hand to pick up the bamboo slip, unfolded it and looked at it, his brows furrowed deeply.
Linzi City is the royal capital of the East China Sea, and it is itself in the whirlpool.
If you want to practice the principle of obscene development, you must get out of here! It's just that the world is so big, where should he go?
thought that as a prince, he should be clothed and fed, and be chic in the world. As a result, his country was invaded, and he, as a proton, was driven away, what is this? A lost dog? Xu Xiang sneered in his heart.
"Old Yang, let me ask you, if we leave, where can we go?" Xu Xiang pinched his chin with his hand and asked.
Lao Yang is a servant, and wherever the master wants to go, he naturally follows. He had never thought about this question, and was asked for a while, "Second Prince, no matter where we go, we can't stay in Linzi City, why don't we go back to Dachu first?" ”
"Da Chu?" Xu Xiang smiled self-deprecatingly, "Where is Da Chu now?" ”
Among the Seven Kingdoms, except for the East China Sea, Zhongshan, and Great Chu, the other four countries are basically border areas, and they are naturally not rich.
As the saying goes, the husband is not guilty, but he is also guilty. Although Da Chu is rich, the people here take care of their own pleasures, dance and write, and the soldiers are not prosperous, which naturally attracts the covetousness of other countries.
Three years ago, Mu Shang, the king of Northern Mongolia, who had been living in the bitter cold land, openly tore up the "Linhe Convention" and invaded Great Chu, and the army of Great Chu was defeated and retreated.
So Xu Xiang was sent over, for a weak country, there is no right to speak, and Xu Xiang's life in the East China Sea is not very good. Except for some specific festival activities, Jiang Zhen will invite them to participate, and the rest of the time he can move around freely, but his identity determines that he can only contact people with the same identity as him, all of whom are some nobles in the East China Sea, but these people don't think very highly of him.
Later, he politely declined the invitations of these princes and princes, and over time he had to stay in the Proton Mansion.
As for the marriage between Xu Xiang and Princess Lanxin, it is also a story of an old-fashioned hero saving beauty.
It is said that two years ago, he participated in a hunting activity in the East China Sea Country and saved her by chance, and since then, Princess Lanxin has secretly promised to come to Proton Mansion to find him many times.
In the end, the two fell in love, but the entire East China Sea royal family was basically against it. Princess Lanxin forced each other to die, so that Jiang Zhen, the king of the East China Sea, reluctantly agreed to the marriage of the two.
And at the beginning of the wedding ceremony between the two, they suddenly received news that the twenty-three cities of Great Chu were broken by Beimeng, and the king of Chu, Xu Kai, was killed.
There are four happy events in life, a long drought and a rainstorm, a foreign country to meet old acquaintances, a candle night in the cave room, and the title of the gold list.
For Xu Xiang, the second prince who became a proton, this candle night in the cave room is undoubtedly a happy event worth hapting. However, it was at this time that the news of the death of the country came, and he couldn't accept it for a while, coupled with the drunkenness, his emotions and body were in a state of confusion and fell into the water.
When Xu Xiang came to his senses again, he was no longer the original Xu Xiang.
"This ...... The old slave heard that the eldest prince is now in Nanli City, so we might as well go to Nanli City and go back first. Lao Yang thought for a while and said.
"Let's not talk about the 5,000-mile distance from the city in the south, when and in what month can we get to the city in the south? Now that Beimeng has just occupied the twenty-three cities of my Great Chu, it must be very strict with the people in the past, once our identities are revealed, I am afraid that as soon as we enter my Great Chu homeland, we will be arrested! Xu Xiang shook his head, and went to find his cheap big brother who he had never met, so forget it.
"That'...... Anyway, we have to leave Linzi first. Xu Xiang's words were very reasonable, and Lao Yang had no choice but to say this.
"You go out first, Lao Yang, let me be alone."
"Second prince, ...... you" Lao Yang wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Xu Xiang.
"Get out!" The bamboo slip in Xu Xiang's hand slapped heavily on the table.
Lao Yang had to leave the room and close the door.
Xu Xiang got up from the bed and slapped his head with his hand, "Nangong Que's hostility towards me is very obvious, it's just a proton, and there are a few people around me. Nangong Que can be said to be the head snake in Linzi, I definitely can't fight him! These ten days are the protection period given to me by the King of the East Sea, and I must leave within these ten days! ”
Thinking of this, he hurriedly picked up the bamboo slips on the table, digested the contents recorded in them as soon as possible, and let himself know the world as soon as possible.
Three days have passed, he has seen all the bamboo slips here, and he already knows the world very well, and it is time to leave.
Princess Lanxin has never come again in the past few days, not only her, but also no one else has come, as if he has no friends in the huge Linzi City.
Also, people go tea cool. A prince who doesn't even have a country anymore doesn't deserve anyone's second glance.
"Old Yang!" It was already noon, and he relaxed his waist and shouted out the door.
"Your Highness, it's time for lunch, what do you want to eat?" Lao Yang walked in and said respectfully.
"It's hard for you! Da Chu is already in such a situation, and you are still so respectful to me. Xu Xiang said with a sigh.
"Your Highness is serious, it is an honor for your subordinates to serve Your Highness!" Lao Yang rushed to kneel down and said.
"Don't kneel!" Xu Xiang didn't like the etiquette of this world very much, and asked softly, "Old Yang." How many years have you followed me? I don't know your full name yet! ”
Lao Yang got up, then walked to Xu Xiang's side, poured him a cup of tea, and replied, "Back to Your Highness, your subordinate Yang Dianfeng." ”
"Sheep madness?" Xu Xiang chuckled, "Hahaha...... Sheep madness! Hahaha! ”
Yang Dianfeng was stunned, he didn't know why his master was smiling like this, was his name so funny?
"Second Prince, you ......"
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Hahaha...... No one has ever taken such a name, and your parents are also talents! Xu Xiang finally stopped his smile, but he couldn't help laughing when he thought of the name.
"Your Highness, what's wrong with the name Old Slave?" Yang Dianfeng was still confused.
"No, no!" Xu Xiang hurriedly stopped laughing, and then said, "Today is as usual, there is no need to prepare those expensive dishes." ”
"Hmmm! Subordinates obey! Yang Dianfeng replied.
After a while, Xu Xiang saw that he was still in place, looking like he wanted to say something, so he asked, "What else is going on?" ”
"Your Highness, I just ran into the long history of Proton Mansion on the road, he ......"
"What? Can't wait to kick me out of Proton Mansion? Xu Xiang sneered, his "soberness" was a matter of this morning, but he didn't expect that it was only noon, and the people from Proton Mansion were going to drive him away!
"Xun Changshi said, since you have woken up, you must not stay in the Proton Mansion any longer." Yang Dianfeng said.
"Okay! Let's go! There is no place to stay here, there is a place to stay! I asked you to gather all of us a few days ago, have you done it? ”
"If you go back to Your Highness, except for the subordinates who followed His Highness from Great Chu, the others are all from the East China Sea and are not trustworthy. But there are only seven people that our Spark Hidden Guard can contact, and the rest of them have lost contact, so they should be unwilling to work for Da Chu anymore. Yang Dianfeng's tone looked a little lost.
Xu Xiang picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip lightly, and then spit it in the teacup, "It's cold." ”
"The old slave will go and add hot water immediately!" Seeing this, Yang Dianfeng hurriedly got up and was about to go to serve hot water.
"No need." Xu Xiang put down the teacup, "Who is the Xinghuo Hidden Guard?" ”
"That was the secret spy that the king had laid out in Linzi City before, and since you came to Linzi, you have always been in charge of your subordinates."
"Heh, there are still seven people?" Xu Xiang smiled slightly, he didn't think that a destroyed country would still have seven loyal people.
"In that case, then go and meet them, you go and make arrangements, I will see them tonight."
"Yes!"
