Chapter 13: A game within a game

Lian Xiao looked at Wei Zhongren with obscure eyes, and whispered far away from the queen, "If you really want your nephew to come back to life, you will personally stay by his side, even if you go to the toilet, you can't leave half a step, don't take a nap, Lord Wei is a smart person, I think you understand what I mean." ”

After Lian Xiao finished speaking, he walked away.

Wei Zhongren looked at his departing back with complicated eyes.

The queen mother walked to his side, "Do you really have to believe the words of this Lian Xiao, she is the eldest princess, how can she really save your nephew?" ”

The deep meaning in the queen's words is that the two factions are fighting, and Wei Shen is fighting for the eldest princess, so naturally Wei Shen will not be saved, which is also reasonable.

Wei Zhongren thought about it, and after all, he still felt that his son's life was more important than anything else.

He saluted the queen, "Please let the queen fulfill the wish of the old minister, the old minister is loyal to the queen mother, now that he is old, all he wants is for his nephew to be able to save this life, if he lies to me, I will definitely do everything possible to break him into pieces."

If he was really instructed by the eldest princess, even if the minister lost his official position and worked hard, he would definitely help the queen...... Destroy her. ”

"Good! With your words, it is not in vain that this palace has been reusing you for so many years, then this palace will go back first, and when you need to use your power, this palace is willing to go out for you personally. ”

"The old minister bowed and thanked the queen."

Wei Zhongren looked grateful, kowtowed to the queen mother with tears in his eyes, and sent the queen mother away.

After that, he really sat on the side of Wei Shen's bed as Lian Xiao said, and didn't leave a step, looking at Wei Shen's face, he always felt terrible, so every once in a while, he wanted to probe Wei Shen's snort, and always felt that Wei Shen would lose his breath the next moment......

………………

Lian Xiao was arrested and put into the dungeon of Dali Temple, and the news soon spread to the eldest princess.

To add insult to injury, Zhang Langzhong, who was imprisoned in the prison and stabbed Wei Shen, was probably guided by his family, and after seeing Lian Xiao, he desperately shouted in the dungeon that he would kill Wei Shen, completely because he fell into Lian Xiao's trap, it was Lian Xiao's trick to kill two birds with one stone, and he also told the warden how Lian Xiao had tempted him to be angry before.

The eyes of the forces of all parties in the entire court were as many as ants in the cracks of the wall, and this word quickly reached the ears of Wei Zhongren, the empress, and the emperor, who understood that it was not easy for his courtiers and issued a holy decree, and the matter was handed over to Wei Zhongren to investigate and dispose of.

All kinds of signs made the queen feel that Lian Xiao was a talent, and had a premonition that he would not be used for himself, if he really became a person of the eldest princess in the future and cured the eldest princess's illness, it would be harmful to herself, so she especially wanted to take this opportunity to get rid of Lian Xiao.

Wei Zhongren also hated Lian Xiao, and he clearly felt that Lian Xiao was by no means such a simple person as he seemed on the surface, but before Wei Shen took his last breath, he still wanted to give Wei Shen another chance to live, if Wei Shen really died, he didn't care whether Lian Xiao was the master of the conspiracy or not, he would cut Lian Xiao with a thousand knives to vent the pain of losing his own son.

Therefore, now Wei Shen and Lian Xiao's lives are tied together, Wei Shen's life hangs by a thread, and even Xiao's life hangs by a thread...... Not necessarily.

…………

The dungeon of Dali Temple is a first-class cruel dungeon in the north, and the people who were imprisoned were either sentenced to death, or died under the punishment before they were sentenced.

Lian Xiao sat in a dark, damp dungeon with only a few torches, but luckily someone in the center of the cell gave him some straw to sit on, and I don't know who lit it.

His face is expressionless, making people unable to see emotions, as if he is thinking, and he seems to be wandering.

Zhou Langzhong was locked up next door to him, and Zhou Langzhong was glaring at him with a pair of resentful eyes.

At this moment, a slender woman walked with a fragrant walk, carrying a basket on her wrist, towards Lianxiao's cell.

Lian Xiao's eyes lit up, it was none other than ...... His little sister is as white as snow.

Lian Xiao immediately reprimanded him in a gentle tone, "You are a woman's family, you shouldn't come to this kind of place." ”

As soon as Bai Ruxue saw Lian Xiao, her apricot eyes turned red, the pear blossoms brought rain, and she said in a sad voice, "Senior brother, you have suffered, as long as there is a place where you are, there is no place where I can't go as white as snow." ”

"Senior sister!" Lian Xiao looked at Bai Ruxue with deep eyes.

Bai Ruxue stretched out her slender white fingers and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, "I brought you your favorite Xinghua Village wine and called flower chicken, you must not be able to eat good here, you eat quickly." It took me a lot of money to persuade the warden to be accommodating, but only for a quarter of an hour, and I left when you were done. ”

"Ruxue, you have a heart, I won't forget this moment."

As the words fell, Lian Xiao lowered his obscure eyes, reached out through the iron bar, picked up the roast chicken and ate it.

I have to say that at this moment, Lian Xiao was moved: at the most critical moment, most people who know each other will avoid it, for fear of spraying blood on their bodies, how many such affectionate and friendly people can take the initiative to post it? And it came so timely, it can be seen that the junior sister has been keeping my movements, this situation is worthy of my cherishing, my little junior sister, did not let me down.

He was eating fragrant flower chicken and drinking wine, but his eyes never left the delicate little face of the little junior sister. Bai Ruxue also looked at him affectionately.

Although the two of them are in the dungeon, they look at each other and the world is only the love of you and me.

When Lian Xiao was full of food and drink, Bai Ruxue finished cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, held Lian Xiao's hand and said, "Senior brother, promise me that you must come back, I will wait for you to avenge your father and come back to marry me." ”

Suddenly mentioning the word "marry", Lian Xiao didn't react for a while, and even if he reacted after a while, he didn't say anything, because he didn't dare to make any promises now.

Bai Ruxue couldn't help but shed a tear affectionately, and then reluctantly took her hand away from Lian Xiao's hand, Lian Xiao patted the back of Bai Ruxue's hand meaningfully, wanting to comfort, "Don't worry, I won't die so easily." ”

"Hmm!"

Bai Ruxue nodded heavily, and then walked out with the basket on his shoulder.

Less than half an hour after Bai Ruxue left, Lian Xiao squinted at the four masked black-clothed men who were walking towards them with their silent superb martial arts all the way.

Zhou Langzhong saw a killer-like person, with extremely high martial arts and a ruthless heart, and killed four or five guards in the blink of an eye, and blood flowed on the ground in an instant.

He took advantage of the chaos to get into the straw of the dungeon, trying to cover himself, trying his best to control his body that was shaking like chaff, and he peed out as he shivered, he tried to hold it, but in this state of extreme nervousness, the floodgates opened and he couldn't take it.

One of the black-clad masked men asked the other, "Do you kill here or take you outside?" ”
