"Hehe, thank you Lord for your praise! County Lord, it's windy at night, you better go back to King Jing's Mansion quickly, and leave everything to the old slave. ”

Gonggong Li didn't forget to pat his ass.

The county lord of Qianqian nodded, and took out a silver ticket from his arms and handed it to Gonggong Li.

"Well, Gonggong Li, this silver money is for you, the county master has returned home, you didn't see anyone tonight, right?"

Gonggong Li hurriedly collected the silver ticket and nodded again and again: "That is, the old slave drove the carriage all the way to Dongcheng after leaving the Zhenguo General's Mansion to deliver a letter to the little marquis, and there was no delay on the way!" ”

When the county lord of Qianqian heard this, a trace of satisfaction appeared on his face, and he sneered and disappeared into the shadows under the moonlight.

Gonggong Li looked at the shadow that was fading away, and the smile on his old face stopped abruptly.

"Murong Qianqian, it's really not a good class! No wonder the little marquis has never had any good feelings for her. The little marquis's eye for people is really accurate, if it is changed to other minions, I am afraid that I will ...... tonight."

Gonggong Li shook his head, didn't think about anything else, and drove the carriage to Dongcheng.

Along the way, as Gonggong Li himself said, he did not stop at the Yuelai Inn, nor did he pass the message to Yan Zixi, but just walked around Dongcheng and returned to the Zhenguo General's Mansion.

……

And all this was closely monitored by a man in black on the roof, until Gonggong Li returned to the general's mansion, and the black-clothed man jumped down and came to the back garden of King Jing's mansion.

The county lord of Qianqian was sitting in the garden drinking tea, and when he saw that the man in black had returned, he opened his mouth and asked.

"Ah Qi, how are things going?" "Returning to the county lord, my subordinates have witnessed the whereabouts of Gonggong Li, and they really didn't stay at the Yuelai Inn to pass the message, and now they have returned to the General's Mansion."

"Good!" Lord Qianqian nodded with satisfaction, "It seems that Gonggong Li is honest and does not deceive me, but sincerely takes refuge in me." ”

The man in black, Ah Qi, was a little puzzled, "Lord County, there is something that my subordinates don't understand. ”

"Say."

"If you don't want Yan Zixi to go to see Old Prince Xiao tomorrow, your subordinates can kill her directly, why bother so much?"

The county lord of Qianqian snorted coldly, and a hint of smugness appeared on his face, "Hmph, do you really think that my brother Jingcong is a vegetarian?" If you kill that wild girl, Brother Jingcong will be furious, and when the time comes, you will definitely find the head of the county lord. ”

After a slight pause, the county lord of Qianqian continued: "But Gonggong Li is different, he is Brother Jingcong's most trusted servant, and Brother Jingcong will definitely believe what he says." At that time, he would only think that Yan Zixi's wild girl was unwilling to meet Old Prince Xiao and voluntarily gave up this marriage, which could not only cut off Brother Jingcong's thoughts, but also definitely not involve the county lord! ”

When Ah Qi heard this, he immediately admired and said: "It's still the county lord who is wise, and his subordinates are very impressed!" ”

"Alright, you've been watching all night, go back and rest."

"Yes, Lord County, my subordinates retire!"

As he spoke, Ah Qi's figure disappeared into the night again.

The county lord of Qianqian drank the remaining sip of tea, yawned, and returned to his boudoir contentedly......

……

Zhenguo General's Mansion.

The hall was singing and dancing, and a banquet was being held for Xiao Jingcong.

The dignitaries and dignitaries toasted Xiao Jingcong one after another, and Xiao Jingcong saluted one by one, but there was no smile on his face.

His mind was not on this banquet at all, but he was worried that Gonggong Li would have any accidents when he went to deliver a message to Yan Zixi.

After three rounds of drinking, the guests were happy, and Father-in-law Li broke in.

cautiously ran behind Xiao Jingcong and whispered something in his ear.

Xiao Jingcong's face immediately changed when he heard this, and a nameless fire rose in his heart.

He saw that his father in the high position was still very sober and not the slightest drunk, so he immediately made a plan.

"Your Excellency can come to the house to drink with Jing Cong today, it is really a great joy in Jing Cong's life, we will not get drunk tonight!"

Xiao Jingcong pretended to be wobbly and unsteady on her feet, snatched the wine jug from the maid's tray, lifted the lid directly, and poured it into her mouth.

Soon, a pot of wine was in his stomach, and Xiao Jingcong began to drink and talk, and when the old prince Xiao saw this, he immediately ordered Gonggong Li.

"Grandpa Li, Cong'er is drunk, help him go back to the house to rest!"

"Scum!"

Gonggong Li answered, and then walked over to help Xiao Jingcong.

"Little Hou Ye, you're drunk, let's go back to the house to rest!"

"I ...... I'm not drunk! I can still drink! Master Chen, come, keep drinking! ”

Xiao Jingcong also deliberately hiccuped, and her acting skills are not far behind Gonggong Li, and sure enough, what kind of slave has what kind of master.

The best actor is none other than Xiao Jingcong!

Xiao Jingcong was drunk all the way, and finally walked out of the hall with the help of Gonggong Li, walked through the corridor, and returned to his room.

Xiao Jingcong glanced out of the door and saw that no one was paying attention, so he regained his consciousness.

He didn't light the lamp, but pulled Gonggong Li to the corner of the room and asked in a low voice.

"Grandpa Li, what's going on?"

"Little Hou Ye, the old slave met the county lord of Qianqian halfway, and she used all kinds of means to prevent the old slave from sending a message to Miss Yan Zixi."

When Xiao Jingcong heard this, she immediately frowned and said, "Why does Qianqian want to obstruct you? Did she have any holiday with Zixi? ”

"This old slave doesn't know, but the county lord of Qianqian is indeed like what you said, the city is bottomless, and we have all been deceived by her. She also bought off the old slave and found the old slave to cooperate......"

As he spoke, Gonggong Li took out the token jade bracelet given by the county lord of Qianqian.

"Originally, the old slave wanted the county lord of Qianqian to personally write down the content of the cooperation in the form of a handwritten letter, but the county lord of Qianqian is not a good type, and he is very vigilant, so he is only willing to give the old slave this jade bracelet as a token, saying that the letter will be handed over to the old slave after it is completed tomorrow."

Xiao Jingcong took the jade bracelet, nodded, and then patted Gonggong Li's shoulder vigorously.

"Gonggong Li, you have done a very good job this time, and you have lived up to my trust in you!"

"Little Hou Ye laughed! Although the old slave loves money, is greedy for life and is afraid of death, he also knows when to do it and when not to do it! The old slave has been following the little marquis for more than 20 years, how the little marquis treats me, the old slave is in mind, and the old slave will never betray the little marquis for his own selfish interests! ”

"Gonggong Li, I know who you are, so I have been relieved to leave everything to you for so many years. Okay, I already know about this, you must not make a noise, the matter of the county lord, and no one can say it. ”

"Then what if Old Prince Xiao and Mrs. Xiao ask?" Gonggong Li looked at Xiao Jingcong and asked.

Xiao Jingcong's face sank like water, "Even if they ask, you can't say a word more, otherwise I will screw your head off!" ”

Xiao Jingcong said that there was a hint of murder in his tone at the end, and he was not joking openly with Li Gong at all.

The powerful power was even more frightened that Gonggong Li knelt on the ground on the spot: "Don't worry, the old slave will definitely rot this matter in his heart, and no one will say anything." The old slave's sincerity and loyalty to the little marquis can show the sun and the moon! ”

"Okay, okay, don't be a sycophant." Xiao Jingcong asked Gonggong Li to get up quickly, and then explained to him: "Gonggong Li, you are guarding in front of my door, and no one is allowed to enter." If my father and mother asked, you would say that I was drunk and fell asleep, do you understand? ”

"The old slave understands!" Gonggong Li nodded, and then looked at Xiao Jingcong with some puzzlement, "What about you, little marquis?" ”

"I'll personally go to the Yuelai Inn and tell Zixi about meeting my father tomorrow."

Saying that, Xiao Jingcong changed into a night suit and jumped out of the window.

Flying all the way to the wall, Xiao Jingcong did not have any delay, and went straight to the Yuelai Inn in Dongcheng.

From the Zhenguo General's Mansion to the Yuelai Inn in Dongcheng, the distance between the two places is separated by a few streets, and it takes half an hour to ride a horse or a carriage.

But Xiao Jingcong was like a night ranger, walking through the eaves and beams, and finally rushed to the Yuelai Inn after a quarter of the incense.

Xiao Jingcong quietly entered the inn and cautiously came to the door of the room where Yan Zixi lived.

He pushed it lightly and found that the door had been locked, so in order not to attract the attention of others, Xiao Jingcong had to go through the window.

After getting into the window, Xiao Jingcong successfully entered the room where Yan Zixi lived, and by the moonlight, he saw Yan Zixi lying on the bed sleeping peacefully and sweetly, and a trace of saliva flowed from the corner of his mouth, probably what kind of sweet dream he was having.

Xiao Jingcong looked a little stupid, and couldn't bear to wake up Yan Zixi who was asleep, but now that time was pressing, there was no way.

Thinking of this, Xiao Jingcong quietly came to Yan Zixi's bed and called softly twice.

"Zixi, Zixi......"

"Woo woo ~ chicken legs, I want to eat big chicken legs ~ woo woo ~ Jing Cong...... Kiss ......"

"Zixi, are you awake?"

Xiao Jingcong thought that Yan Zixi had woken up and was about to say hello to her, but after waiting for a while, she found that Yan Zixi had fallen asleep again.

It turned out that he was just talking in his sleep.

"This stupid girl, sleep so dead......"

Xiao Jingcong shook his head, sighed leisurely, and continued to call Yan Zixi's name.

After calling a few times and not answering, Xiao Jingcong could only pat Yan Zixi's face.

Yan Zixi felt something, slowly opened her eyes, and suddenly saw a black shadow in front of her, which frightened her and immediately screamed.

Then she picked up her fist and hit Xiao Jingcong's left eye with a single fist.

Xiao Jingcong didn't have any defense, so he took Yan Zixi's pink punch firmly, and immediately screamed in pain.

The voice...... Jing Cong, are you Jing Cong? ”

"Nonsense, who else but me?" Xiao Jingcong covered her eyes and complained to Yan Zixi with an aggrieved expression.
