Chapter Twenty-Six, Be Honest
"The county lord is serious, I'm just acting on orders."
It's not that she can't hear the alienation in the man's words, Changxing Houfu is always favored, in fact, it has nothing to do with them having always been neutral in the court and loyal to Emperor Song, but when she thinks of the ending of Xiao Yici's previous life, she still can't help but feel sorry......
The second time, this is the second time Xiao Yici has seen such a look on the woman's face, the first time is the assassination on the way back to Beijing, compassion, regret......
"Actually, I have always had a question that I hope the county lord will answer on my behalf." Xiao Yici seemed to be a little hesitant between his eyebrows, but some words were unhappy.
"If you don't dislike it, call me Ning Wu."
If possible, she still wants to help him, at least not to repeat the mistakes of her previous life.
It seemed that he didn't expect the woman to say this suddenly, Xiao Yici didn't open his mouth, but instead expressed the confusion in his heart.
"In the assassination when you returned to Beijing, it is not difficult to see that you have already seen the current situation clearly, but why did you accept the order to enter Beijing."
These words are really difficult to answer, Ning Wu couldn't help but smile bitterly, it can only be said that it is a creation to make people, since she was given a chance to be reborn, but at that time, just when she persuaded her father to want to hand over the military power, she didn't expect Emperor Song to make such a will, she can only say that it is the will of heaven.
"Instead of letting Emperor Song be suspicious and summon disaster to Nan'an, it is better for me to accept the order to enter Beijing, maybe there will be a turnaround."
This time, Ning Wu unreservedly told the man in front of him what he really thought in his heart, since he had made up his mind to become friends, there were some things that he couldn't treat with sincerity.
"What do you say?" Ning Wu looked at the man, still with a smile on the corner of his mouth.
The woman's honesty made Xiao Yici a little moved, but if he was replaced, I am afraid that he would choose this way.
Now, it is not difficult for him to guess Emperor Song's thoughts, the war between Nan'an and the Great Song Dynasty is only a matter of time, just like Ning Wu said, it is not certain that there will be a turnaround in the future, but who can say for sure what will happen in the future?
"Now that the choice has been made, there is no room for retreat."
Xiao Yici did not express comfort, for her, recognizing the situation and staying sober is the most important thing.
At the same time, after Lin Feng left, the unconscious man who was originally lying drunk on the bed suddenly opened his eyes, and a pair of peach blossom eyes were full of clarity, where did he look like he was drunk.
He was no stranger to Xiao Yici's courtyard, so he easily entered Xiao Yici's study, and he was careful every step, because he knew that Xiao Yici was far wiser than he appeared on the surface.
After rummaging through the entire study, he still couldn't find anything useful, which made him even more sure that there must be a secret room here.
Inadvertently looking back, a painting on the wall caught his attention, it was a simple landscape map, he reached out and touched it, but let him touch a bulge, Feng Qi's eyes flashed a touch of amazement, worthy of Xiao Yici, he actually integrated the mechanism and the painting.
Pressing the "stone" on the painting, the bookshelf not far away was moved outward, revealing a secret door, just when he wanted to check one or two, but he heard someone approaching outside, so he had no choice but to immediately restore the mechanism to its original state and leave through the window.
But I saw a group of men in black heading west, which was the direction of the guest room, the assassination in broad daylight? didn't have time to think about it, Feng Qi quietly followed.
Thinking that Feng Qi should be about the same, I was afraid that if I delayed any longer, Xiao Yici might be suspicious, so Ning Wu took out the dagger from his sleeve: "Although the dagger is good, it is always inconvenient in front of people, please take it back from the fourth prince." ”
Actually, Ning Wu didn't mean anything else, after all, this dagger was given to Xiao Yici by Emperor Song himself, if it was seen by someone with a heart, maybe it would make a big fuss, so it would be better to return it to its original owner.
Seeing the things handed over by the woman, Xiao Yici finally took it, so that it was good for each other.
After being sent to the guest room, Xiao Yici didn't go in, but for some reason, a loud noise suddenly appeared in the room, Ning Wu glanced at Xiao Yici, and immediately went in to check.
At this time, Lin Feng and Huaying were about to go in, but they heard a voice from inside: "Don't come in!" ”
There was a strange fragrance in the room, and as soon as they came in, both of them felt wrong, so they immediately asked the two people outside the door not to come in.
"This place is not to stay long."
Sensing the problem, Xiao Yici already had a strange feeling, and immediately pulled the woman to go out, but her legs were weak......
Ning Wu was no better, she suddenly realized that it must be the problem with that cup of tea, but what about Xiao Yici, when did he get the trick? It seems to be more serious than yourself.
"You go out and let Lin Feng in." Xiao Yiqi knelt on one knee, and his handsome face was already red.
Ning Wu stumbled out, his face was also flushed, and he fainted before he could let Lin Feng in.
"County Lord!"
Huaying was shocked, and grabbed the woman's fallen body, Feng Qi, who arrived, just saw this scene, and only said to Huaying: "Tell Xiao Yici and let him hurry back to his house, your master is not feeling well and returns to Qinyuan, just say that your master said it!" ”
Seeing Feng Qi leaving with Ning Wu, Hua Ying didn't stop her, because Ning Wu had already told her about Feng Qi.
Looking at the woman in his arms who was constantly writhing due to the effect of the drug, Feng Qi was frightened for a while, fortunately he came quickly, but those people were probably coming soon......
Gritted his teeth and turned around.
After telling Lin Feng those words, Huaying immediately avoided people and returned to Qinyuan, no matter what, she couldn't panic until the master came back.
Xiao Yici was obviously a traditional Chinese medicine, and Lin Feng didn't dare to delay, so he directly carried the person back to his master's bedroom.
Originally, Qian Jiu came over with a group of people to be instructed by Xiao Che, but in the end, it was people who went to the empty building and there was nothing, and they thought that they had made a mistake in the room, and finally had to return in a huff.
When he got the news, Xiao Che was accompanying Princess Qingyun to see those gadgets, and because so many people were present, he couldn't have a seizure, so he could only bear it secretly.
Not long after, someone came to report that the people in the three-room guest room were not clean, and they were afraid that they would insult the nobles, so they sent someone to send the drunk Prince Fengqi and the county lord of Ningwu back.
The rhetoric is seamless, even if Xiao Che knows, he can't say it to his face, but it's really such a coincidence? Even Xiao Yici didn't come back, but I was afraid that he must have been tricked......
"Brother Fengqi is gone, it's really boring."
As soon as she heard that Feng Qi had returned home, Princess Qingyun was not interested, and she turned around to go back to the palace, so King Yu had to follow.
