Chapter 143: You're on Your Knees
Xiao Jingcong's eyes sank, and when he was thinking about how to get out, there was a sudden sound of fighting in the courtyard.
Chen Xianling hurriedly shouted at his guards and asked, "What's going on outside?" ”
As soon as the words fell, a wounded guard limped in, and anxiously reported to Chen Xianling in a cold sweat: "My lord! Oh no, there are two assassins outside, they are very skilled, and their subordinates are not his opponents at all! ”
"What?! You useless rice buckets! Quick, what are you still doing here, go! Go get me the Assassin! Chen Xian Ling twisted his face and shouted angrily at the group of guards standing in the room.
"Yes!"
When the group of guards heard Chen County's order, they immediately left Xiao Jingcong alone, and turned their heads and rushed to the courtyard of the mansion to arrest the guards.
After the guards went out, Chen Xianling hurriedly came over and pleaded guilty to Xiao Jingcong with a hippie smile.
"Lord Xiao, I'm sorry to frighten you! According to the lower officials, you still go out to hide with the lower officials. The sword has no eyes, if those assassins accidentally injure the prince, then it will be difficult to atone for the sins of the lower officials even if they die! ”
"No need, Chen County Order, it's better to take care of yourself!"
Saying that Xiao Jingcong had a lifetime of wind under his feet, he immediately rushed out of the study, flew onto the eaves, and disappeared into the vast night.
Chen Xianling stomped his foot suddenly, suddenly realized something, and hurriedly returned to the desk with a secret letter written, not knowing who to report.
……
Xiao Jingcong turned over and walked out of the county office, and after crossing a few streets, he landed in a private alley.
Xiao Jingcong stopped, and said coldly into the darkness, "Come out!" ”
As soon as the words were finished, the two figures fell, and they walked quickly in front of Xiao Jingcong and bowed respectfully to Xiao Jingcong.
"Subordinates, see Major General!"
Xiao Jingcong glanced at it and saw that the two figures were none other than the two guards he sent to protect Yan Zixi, Mo Yun and Bai Qian.
Seeing the two of them appear here, Xiao Jingcong couldn't help frowning and asked, "The assassin who caused panic in the county government must be the two of you, right?" Didn't this king ask you to protect the princess, why did you break into the county office?! ”
When Xiao Jingcong asked this, there was obviously a trace of anger on his face, as if he was blaming the two of them for leaving their posts without permission.
Although Mo Yun and Bai Qian had meritorious service in rescuing the driver, in Xiao Jingcong's eyes, they did disobey their orders.
Mo Yun and Bai Qian have followed Xiao Jingcong's side for many years, so they naturally knew that Xiao Jingcong had strict military laws, so the two of them immediately knelt on the ground.
"Back to the young general, Princess Xiao was worried about your safety, and repeatedly ordered her subordinates to come over to meet the young general, and then rushed over. His subordinates have violated military law and are willing to be punished! ”
"Willing to be punished!"
Mo Yun and Bai Qian just briefly explained the situation, and then they didn't say a word, and were willing to accept Xiao Jingcong's punishment.
Xiao Jingcong thought for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "Put aside this punishment for the time being, and quickly go back to the inn to protect Princess Xiao."
"Yes!"
The two guards arched their hands, then got up and flew back.
Xiao Jingcong then rushed back to the inn, and on the way back, he kept thinking about Chen County's order.
Why is the county government heavily guarded, and there are so many skilled guards patrolling.
There is a hidden mechanism in the study, and what mystery is hidden behind the mechanism?
and his own gold medal, why did Chen County Ling send someone to secretly steal his gold medal, what is his intention......
Everything was like a mess, bothering Xiao Jingcong's heart, so that he didn't have a clue.
"It's really suspicious, what is that Chen County Commander planning, and what forces are behind it?"
Xiao Jingcong thought about these things in her heart, and soon returned to the inn where she lived.
As soon as she returned to the inn room, Yan Zixi pounced and asked worriedly.
"Jingcong, are you alright? Are there any injuries? ”
"I'm fine, Xi'er!" Xiao Jingcong responded, and stretched out his hand and gently flicked Yan Zixi's forehead.
Yan Zixi screamed in pain, and scolded in her mouth: "Jingcong, why are you playing me?" ”
"Hmph, what else do you say? Why did you spend Mo Yun and Bai Qian to save me? Do you know that if you have something long and short, then the king will be very distressed and sad! Xiao Jingcong stared at Yan Zixi and said coldly.
Yan Zixi knew that Xiao Jingcong was worried about her safety, so she rubbed her forehead, and didn't blame Xiao Jingcong, but just turned around and said stupidly: "Jingcong...... People aren't worried about you! You have just recovered from your injuries, and your skills have not yet recovered, if you meet those killers before, I am afraid that you will be in danger! "Knock knock
"Silly girl, aren't you afraid that you are in danger? Obviously, you are just a helpless little girl, and you need their protection even more! Xiao Jingcong said earnestly.
Yan Zixi waved her hand, "Don't worry, Jingcong, the fortune teller has said it, my life is very hard, and it is not so easy to encounter any life-threatening ......."
In order to avoid being questioned by Xiao Jingcong, Yan Zixi quickly diverted the topic, "By the way, what did you gain from secretly investigating the county government yamen this time?" ”
Xiao Jingcong sat down, took a sip of tea, and then told Yan Zixi everything that had just happened in the yamen of the county government.
Including how heavily guarded the county government yamen is, the hidden organs in the study, and a series of suspicious actions by Chen County's order.
After Yan Zixi listened, her eyes widened, she looked at Xiao Jingcong incredulously, and asked strangely: "Won't it?" It's just a small county government yamen, why ...... Why ......"
"Why is it so weird, isn't it?"
Xiao Jingcong continued with Yan Zixi's words, "Indeed, that Chen County Order is indeed pregnant with a ghost fetus, I don't know what wishful thinking he is making, and the forces behind it are even more unfathomable......
When Yan Zixi heard this, there was also a hint of worry in her eyebrows, she held Xiao Jingcong's big hands tightly, and said with concern: "Jingcong, you must be careful in the future!" I think you seem to have touched someone's interests, and they are all plotting against you and trying to put you to death. ”
Whether it was the previous sword competition in front of the palace or the current flood accident, everything seemed to be premeditated.
One thing is a coincidence, everything collides together, then it can't be called a coincidence.
Yan Zixi's words also moved Xiao Jingcong's heart, and he gently took Yan Zixi into his arms, comforting him with tenderness.
"Xi'er, don't worry, it'll be fine, everything will pass......"
"But Jingcong, I'm afraid you'......"
"Nothing to be afraid of! What should come will come after all, I am the general of Da Xiao and the prince of Da Xiao. I have never been afraid of anyone on the battlefield, and now I am the same in the government and the opposition! Xiao Jingcong said that her body seemed to exude a majestic and firm force, which made Yan Zixi fall in love with it.
Sure enough, I didn't choose the wrong person!
Yan Zixi bit the guilty minister lightly, hooked her hand on Xiao Jingcong's back, and pinched it hard.
"Xi'er, you ......"
"Jingcong, no matter what happens, promise me that you must protect your own life, you know?"
Xiao Jingcong was stunned for a moment when she heard this, then glanced at Yan Zixi affectionately, a smile curled up at the corner of her mouth, and she said dotingly: "Silly Xi'er, I should say this to you!" ”
"No matter who says it to whom, Jingcong, my wish is very simple, that is, to be able to grow old with you and be with you for a lifetime!" Yan Zixi lightly opened her lips and spoke again.
"Better have a few more big fat boys!"
"Cut, who's going to give you a baby!" Yan Zixi's eyes froze, and she pinched Xiao Jingcong fiercely, but this time Xiao Jingcong did not cry out in pain, and still stared at Yan Zixi in front of her, who was already blushing.
Xiao Jingcong subconsciously spit out a few words, "Xi'er, you are so beautiful!" ”
"It's just yours!"
Oh my God, it's insinuate!
How could I say such a sour love story! The whole house is filled with the sour smell of love!
Yan Zixi thought, and the flush on her face became even thicker.
Taking advantage of Yan Zixi's trance, Xiao Jingcong quickly lowered her head, leaned over Yan Zixi's forehead and kissed it lightly, and then the two hugged each other and came to the bed......
……
Early the next morning, Chen Xianling came to the inn and asked to see Xiao Jingcong.
"Jing Cong, this Chen County Commander even dares to come to see you in person?" Yan Zixi has not had a good impression of that Chen County Order at all since she learned about the ulterior deeds made by Chen County Order last night.
Xiao Jingcong smiled faintly, "It's okay, this king wants to see what tricks he can play." ”
Saying that, Xiao Jingcong shouted outside the door, "Chen County Order, come in!" ”
After getting Xiao Jingcong's permission, Chen Xianling pushed the door in.
As soon as he entered the door, Chen Xianling immediately knelt on the ground and respectfully saluted Xiao Jingcong, "Xia Guan has seen Xiao Wangye!" The prince is a thousand years old, a thousand years old! ”
However, Chen Xianling knelt for a long time, but Xiao Jingcong did not react at all, neither let him get up nor speak, but sat at the table and looked at him meaningfully.
Chen Xianling's heart was a little weak, but he didn't dare to ask more, so he had to kneel on the ground with his head down, waiting for Xiao Jingcong's order.
At this time, Yan Zixi also came over, sat next to Xiao Jingcong, and then picked up a fruit bowl on the table, picked a grape and stuffed it into Xiao Jingcong's mouth, and asked with a smile: "Lord Wang, how about you taste the grapes outside this mansion?" ”
Xiao Jingcong smiled slightly, knowing Yan Zixi's intentions, she cooperated with Yan Zixi, opened her mouth slightly, ate the grape, and then praised it.
