Chapter 44: Entering the Palace
"I let out the wind this time, saying that there is an eyeliner planted by the Demon Lord Yu in the hundred families of Xianmen, so Yun Ze will let Bai Xiaoqi and them go down the mountain, you have to give me this period. Carefully confirm, be sure to confirm her identity for me before the turmoil subsides! The man in black commanded again.
"Last time, Yun Ze got information from Chief Manager Lin, and in the next few days, he will unite with the hundred schools of Xianmen to carry out a large-scale purge of the remnants of the Demon Lord, Shadow Guard, I want them all to disappear, understand?"
"Got it!" Nie Chuhe replied in a deep voice. But there was a wry smile in his heart: The entire Shadow Guard army was destroyed, so I'm afraid that I, the general manager, will also come to an end! Even if the person in front of him doesn't want his own life, I'm afraid that the Shadow Building won't let him go, it's really not a way to live!
"And your brother Xia Jin, if he has any influence on our plans, or knows your identity, I advise you to kill him!" The man in black coldly suggested that he didn't want to let someone affect his overall plan.
"Hmph, what brother, if I wasn't for his woman, how could I call him a brother, don't worry, I will get rid of him sooner or later!" Nie Chuhe said coldly, his words sounded in Xia Jin's ears like thunder on the ground, shaking his entire head "buzzing", and it was blank in an instant.
"Hmph, sooner or later you will die on a woman!" The man in black sneered.
"I've got my own measure!" Nie Chuhe responded nonchalantly.
After hearing Nie Chuhe's reply, the man in black disappeared in place and disappeared without a trace.
After a long time, Xia Jin breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that there was no sound inside, he never dreamed that Nie Chuhe tried his best to get rid of the shackles of the shadow guard on the surface, but secretly he developed his own power in the shadow building, and now he took over the position of Mr. Lin.
He has always regarded Nie Chuhe as a brother, but he never expected that the "brother" who usually takes good care of him will do everything possible to harm himself with calculations, and even want to take his lover for himself!
The words he heard today made Xia Jin feel a chill in his heart, and he shivered unconsciously.
Who was this man who spoke to him? In recent years, there has been a lot of turmoil in the rivers and lakes, and almost everyone is looking for the whereabouts of Xuanyuan Ling, but he didn't expect it to be planned by him!
Even the appearance of Bai Xiaoqi and Yun Ze was calculated by them, what they heard was this, what did they not hear?
Xia Jin thought in his heart, and the more he felt that Nie Chuhe, who got along with him day and night, made him more and more unrecognizable.
At this moment, outside the thatch where Xia Jin was hiding, a figure stopped, and through the moonlight, it was Nie Chuhe!
Frightened, Xia Jin quickly held her breath, for fear of being discovered by Nie Chuhe.
But Nie Chuhe just stood there, and didn't step forward to remove the thatch where Xia Jin was hiding, and he didn't know if he had found him. At this time, Xia Jin was so frightened that his heart had already raised his throat, and he was afraid that Nie Chuhe would take a step forward, or suddenly say that he had found himself!
At this moment, Nie Chuhe took a step forward and stopped closer to the thatch, Xia Jin in the thatch, and could even feel the chill emanating from Nie Chuhe's body.
After confronting each other like this for a while, Nie Chuhe suddenly dodged and left. Xia Jin was frightened into a cold sweat, stayed in the thatch for a long time and didn't come out, he was afraid that Nie Chuhe did not leave, but waited for him to appear elsewhere, if he went out now, he happened to bump into him, I am afraid it would not be good.
Xia Jin sat in the thatch, watching the sky gradually reveal the whiteness of the fish's belly, and then gradually let go of the fear in his heart and slowly crawled out of the thatch.
The reason why he used to climb was because he had sat in this cold wind all night, and his knees, which were already in unbearable pain, were even more painful at this time, so that he didn't even have the strength to stand up.
Xia Jin sat on the ground for a long time, and the sun came out to shine on his body, making his whole person feel warm, but even though his body felt warm, his heart was like falling into an ice cave.
The sun was shining, and her legs were finally better, Xia Jin dragged her tired body and walked back step by step, not even caring about her favorite wine.
Xia Jin didn't know how he got back to his room, what happened last night made him feel as terrible as a nightmare, and the whole person was in a daze, lying on the bed for a long time before falling asleep.
At noon, Qin Zhiyun came in before Xia Jin gave a needle, and the sound of squirming woke him up. opened his eyes violently, and instantly relieved himself after seeing that it was Qin Zhiyun.
Qin Zhiyun only thought that he was suffering from a cold attack and was unwell, so he was still sleeping so late and didn't ask anything.
When he woke up, he brought the hot porridge and said to him, "Come and drink the porridge, did your leg hurt again last night?" ”
"Yes, my leg hurt again yesterday, and I can't even get out of bed to drink water!" Xia Jin smiled weakly, and didn't tell Qin Zhiyun what he heard yesterday, because he felt that Nie Chuhe might have said it casually yesterday in order to deal with that person, and if he said it before the matter became clear, he was afraid that it would affect the relationship between the three of them.
"When we have saved enough money for the consultation, let's go to the Medicine King Valley. I've heard that the doctors there are all very skilled, and they will definitely be able to heal your legs! Qin Zhiyun said expectantly.
"Okay, I'll listen to you! When I'm ready, I'll take you around the world, see all the beautiful scenery, and then choose one of our favorites and settle down! Xia Jin looked at Qin Zhiyun's smile, and all the gloom in her heart was swept away, as long as she was happy, what she did was worth it!
"As soon as I came in, I heard that you were here and you and me, but you killed me!" Nie Chuhe's gentle voice sounded at the door.
can be heard in Xia Jin's ears, but it is like a sharp arrow inserted into his heart, Xia Jin's pupils contracted violently, what he heard last night, the words are still in his ears, and his heart is even more chilling.
But on the surface, he still pretended to be fine, and responded with a smile: "You don't have to envy me, there are more girls in the world, as long as you are willing, you are afraid that you will not find the one you like?" ”
"Hey...... This is easy to say, I have no money and no power, I have no fixed residence, only this appearance is reasonable, which girl do you say is willing to follow me! Nie Chuhe laughed self-deprecatingly.
"I think it's good to be with you at the beginning, mature and steady, reliable, which girl follows you is her convincing!" Qin Zhiyun saw that Nie Chuhe didn't have much confidence, so she comforted her.
Nie Chuhe looked at her with fiery eyes and said, "Do you really think so?" ”
Qin Zhiyun was a little uncomfortable by him, turned her head and pretended to tidy up the things on the table, "Not only do I think so, but Xia Jin also thinks so, you say, Xia Jin?" ”
Xia Jin looked at Nie Chuhe's eyes in a daze, and was asked by Qin Zhiyun before she could come back to her senses, and stammered: "That's it, that's it, it's ......."
Hearing this, a trace of loss flashed in Nie Chuhe's eyes, but he still smiled and said, "Then I will borrow the auspicious words of the two of you!" I wish I could find a girl who is willing to share my ups and downs! ”
The three of them said something inconsequential together, because they had their own hearts, they soon had nothing to say, and after being silent for a while, Nie Chu said in a contemptuous manner: "There is still something in my palace, I will go over first, Xia Jin is not in good health, I will help you talk to King Yong'an!" ”
After saying that, Nie Chuhe got up and left, leaving only Xia Jin, who was full of worries, and Qin Zhiyun, who looked a little unnatural.
Two days later, Nie Chuhe took Xiao Qi Xiaoba to the Yong'an Palace, planning to enter the palace with the Yong'an King and attend the banquet.
Xia Jin said that she was sick and wanted to stay with Qin Zhiyun, so she didn't enter the palace with them.
After the three of them came to the Yong'an Palace, the Yong'an King had already prepared two carriages and was waiting for their arrival.
After seeing a few people come to the palace, after explaining some court etiquette, they got into the car together.
Xiao Qi wanted Nie Chu and Xiao Ba to sit in the same car, but was pulled into his car by King Yong'an on the grounds that one car could not fit three people.
After getting into the car, King Yongan said to Xiao Qi: "This time entering the palace must be dangerous and abnormal, you must be careful in everything!" ”
"Don't worry, I won't cause you any trouble here!" Xiao Qi smiled at him as a sign of comfort.
"I'm not afraid that you're looking for trouble, but that trouble is coming to you!" King Yong'an shook his head and said with a worried expression.
"My father has always left the position of prince undecided, which has attracted Mu Yunqing, the king of Yanbei, and Mu Yunjing, the king of Huaiyuan, who have been fighting for many years. Now that my father and emperor have suddenly revealed his intention to make me his prince, how can the two forces of them give up! Mu Yunche said with a bitter face, shaking his head.
"This time I entered the palace, I think they will do everything they can to make a fuss about me, if you are not careful, you will lose your head! Xiao Qi, are you afraid? Mu Yunche looked at Bai Xiaoqi with a sense of apprehension, hoping that he would give him some comfort.
"Afraid of what? The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth! Since Mu Yunzhen intends to use you to weaken the power of the two of them, how could he let you die so easily? Xiao Qi smiled nonchalantly, and said in his heart: Even if you really want them to die, these people have to have that ability!
"Huh...... It seems that I am far less daring than you! Mu Yunche was stunned when he heard this, and turned to laugh self-deprecatingly.
While the two were talking and laughing, the carriage had arrived at the gate of the palace.
Bai Xiaoqi lifted the curtain on the window and looked out, only to see that there was a lot of traffic, officials, and female dependents, but they were all very quiet, lined up, and walked towards a palace gate in an orderly manner.
Xiao Qi raised his head and looked at the name on the gate of the palace, only to see that there were three very simple characters written on it - Andingmen.
Mu Yunche saw Bai Xiaoqi looking at the words on the door in a daze, so he explained out loud: "This Anding Gate will only be opened when the palace is holding a banquet and the ministers are being entertained, and it is usually closed!" ”
"Not only that, but there is also a Zhengyang Gate, as well as the Longhua Road opposite the Zhengyang Gate, which is also not allowed to go! It was the Emperor's Road, and if anyone walked on it without permission, it would be a capital crime to kill the head! You must be careful when walking in the palace, try to stay in crowded places, and try not to go to some remote and uninhabited places in the palace. Mu Yunche instructed seriously.
"Why?" Bai Xiaoqi looked at him with some puzzlement.
"Because those places are generally forbidden places in the palace, even if they are not forbidden places, if they attack anyone in a remote place, it will be easier to get it!" Mu Yunche explained with a meaningful smile.
