Chapter 70: Stolen
After seeing Xu Shen, Wen Xiang felt that his state was better than before, so he planned to say goodbye and leave.
But he didn't want to, as soon as he walked out of the mourning hall, he heard the sound of a fight behind him.
As soon as Wen Xiang turned around, he saw that Xu Shen was besieged by two black-clothed and masked men, and because he was defenseless, it was very difficult to deal with it.
Wen Xiang hurriedly shouted: "Come on, there are assassins!" β
The maids were the first to hear the sound, ran over to take a look, and were so frightened that they ran away with their heads in their hands.
Wen Xiang: "...... What about the promised sacrifice of the Lord? β
Seeing that Xu Shen's arm had been cut by the long sword, Wen Xiang couldn't take care of it, and shouted at the fleeing maid: "Quickly call the nursing home!" β
Turning his head, he pulled the deadbolt from the door and ran back to the mourning hall.
The two assassins probably didn't expect that Wen Xiang was not as frightened as the other maids, and dared to run back to save people, and was stunned for a moment.
At this moment, Wen Xiang had already rushed forward, picked up the door bolt and waved it indiscriminately, which made the assassins mess up.
Wen Xiang yelled at Xu Shen, who was still in a daze, covering his arms: "Don't go quickly!" β
Xu Shen was stunned, and subconsciously ran two steps out of the door.
Seeing that the target was about to escape, the two assassins quickly came to their senses, and after making eye contact with each other, one stayed behind to deal with Wen Xiang, and the other chased after Xu Shen.
Wen Xiang failed to buy Xu Shen more time, and Xu Shen ran to the door of the mourning hall, and the assassins caught up with him. Wen Xiang was anxious, but she couldn't deal with the assassin in front of her, let alone help Xu Shen.
As soon as I was distracted, I felt a sharp pain in my shoulder, and Wen Xiang's eyes were dark, and I almost fainted.
"Snort-" There was a sound, the sound of the long sword piercing through the flesh and then quickly pulling it out.
This is simply a secondary injury!
Wen Xiang's eyes were full of stars, but she still clenched her teeth and didn't say a word.
She was afraid that Xu Shen would be distracted, and at this juncture, Wen Xiang didn't think about anything else, anyway, she could run one by one.
Fortunately, at this time, the nursing home of the Xu Mansion finally rushed over and rescued Xu Shen at the door of the mourning hall first.
Seeing this, the assassin did not like to fight, and withdrew from the mourning hall after fighting and retreating from the courtyard.
Wen Xiang relieved herself and knelt on the ground holding her bloody shoulder.
Xu Shen rushed up to support her with an arrow step, looked at her anxiously, and asked with a heart, "How is it?" Where else did it hurt? β
Wen Xiang let out a sigh, and when she saw that he didn't look like he was hurt, she was relieved.
Just as she was about to speak, she comforted Xu Shen a few words, but she didn't want to let go of the breath she was hanging just now, and her eyes were dark, and she fainted.
β¦β¦
When Wen Xiang woke up in a daze, she heard Song Nanzhou's voice.
"There was news from the palace, saying that the palace maid next to Concubine Yi Niangniang made trouble with His Majesty in order to ask for a doctor for her. said that at the beginning, the palace maid went to ask the queen, but the queen ignored it, and the palace maid was desperate, so she asked for the heart cultivation hall. β
"The result?"
This is Lin San's voice.
Wen Xiang secretly thought, these two people are so secretly poking and poking when discussing business, and they are like underground party joints-
Then I saw that the two heads were together in one place, and the voice of the voice was very low, and there was not even a lamp in the dark room.
Dark?
Wen Xiang glanced outside, it was dark? She remembered that when she was in Xu's Mansion, it was still daylight.
Was she in a coma for a long time?
"Your Majesty immediately sent the hospital of Tai Hospital to the Jardine Hall to treat Concubine Yi."
Lin Sanyi was happy: "Your Majesty is really ...... to Concubine Yi In this way, the prince should be able to come back from the border land smoothly? β
"You and I still need to lay it out." Song Nanzhou said softly: "Don't get carried away, it's a big deal." β
Lin San nodded, looking eager to try, and said excitedly: "Don't worry." As long as the prince comes back, we will be able to do a big job! β
Song Nanzhou shook his head: "I'm afraid the time has not yet come." The prince came back this time to repair the father-son friendship with His Majesty, and the court affairs, as well as the ministers of civil and military affairs, can be avoided. Otherwise, he will still be suspicious and jealous of His Majesty. β
Lin San was poured a bucket of cold water on his head, frustrated for a while, and then cheered up: "No matter what, I finally want to bring the prince back-by the way, I will go back to the house tomorrow, and the queen mother and queen mother will invite someone to go to the Jian'an Hou Mansion to propose marriage, what do you think?" β
When he said this, he looked at Song Nanzhou very vigilantly.
Song Nanzhou couldn't laugh or cry when he saw it, "Mention your kiss - what Your Majesty means, you just don't know." β
Lin San was secretly overjoyed for a while, "But the Marquis of Jian'an's Mansion is afraid that he will not agree - His Majesty originally meant that, and now he has given you this opportunity, the Marquis of Jian'an's Mansion pondered His Majesty's thoughts, and I am afraid that he will not agree to the Dongjun Palace." After all, in the eyes of His Majesty, the Dongjun Wangfu is the person on the Queen Mother's side. β
Song Nanzhou also knew that Lin San's matter was very difficult, so he frowned and said nothing.
"Or, ask the Queen Mother for her decree?" Lin Sanyi patted his head and thought of a bad idea.
Song Nanzhou also slapped him on the head: "If you really do that, your Dongjun Wangfu will completely stand on the boat of the Queen Mother, and when the time comes, just wait for Your Majesty to settle accounts with you." β
"This doesn't work, that doesn't work, then I'll ......" Lin San said angrily: "Just give up!" β
"Don't be impulsive just yet." Song Nanzhou comforted him: "The family matter is still asked to be mentioned, as for the future...... Then Qin Qi girl will not be sent to the palace immediately, if you identify her, let's think about it again. β
To put it mildly, Lin San was finally sent away.
Song Nanzhou exhaled softly in the dark, presumably he was quite tired at the end of the day.
"Lin Sangongzi won the final?" Wen Xiang couldn't help but speak.
According to the rules of the competition, the winner of the centurion selection competition has two days of rest and can leave the Wuxiang camp freely.
Lin San said that he would go out of the camp and return home tomorrow, and Wen Xiang guessed that he had won the position of centurion.
Song Nanzhou was slightly stunned, and then walked over quickly: "Are you awake?" β
Wen Xiang was still a little weak, "Well, I've been awake for a while." Do you know about the assassination of Xu Xiang's little brother? β
Song Nanzhou didn't answer first, but asked, "How do you feel?" β
"Not so good." Wen Xiang said honestly: "I feel very tired, like running 1,500 meters in school before, I feel so tired that I am about to collapse to the ground." I remember when I was injured in the morning, why was it dark like this in the blink of an eye? β
"It's already three shifts now." Song Nanzhou replied to her casually: "That is, if the person you become is injured, you will also be injured?" β
"I don't know." But she did feel very tired, and it seemed that she had a hard time speaking, "I guess it will be affected by thisβyou haven't told me yet, how is Xu Fu?" What about apricot blossoms? β
Song Nanzhou glared at her: "Look at you in the future, if you have something to do, you will not run around." β
I didn't say a word to him when I ran, Qingluan had already withdrawn from Xu's mansion, and when he knew the news, he really wanted to catch her back and beat her up.
The Liu family was destroyed by Xu Shen's family, and Liu Daxue had many protΓ©gΓ©s in the past and made a lot of friends, at this time, many people wanted to eat Xu Shen's meat and drink Xu Shen's blood. She still dared to go to Xu's mansion, but she really didn't know how thick the sky was.
He wanted to rip her head open and see what was inside!
With her lonely bravery, she dared to rush forward and fight the assassin for her life, she thought she really had three heads and six arms?
Although the apricot blossom was seriously injured, fortunately, it was not a fatal injury, she looked like a serious injury, if it was a fatal injury, Song Nanzhou's eyebrows tightened, if it was a fatal injury, could she still return to the wrench?
"Okay, okay, I'll tell you in the future, don't run around." Wen Xiang really lost to him, she said the east, he said the west, can kill people urgently, "You tell me first, what happened to the Xu Mansion?" β
"Xu Shen just suffered a little flesh wound, don't worry." Song Nanzhou turned over to bed angrily, with his back to Wen Xiang, looking unhappy.
Hearing that Xu Shen was fine, Wen Xiang naturally breathed a sigh of relief and asked again, "What about the apricot blossoms?" β
Song Nanzhou still looked angry: "I can't die." β
Wen Xiang pouted, what kind of attitude?
Suddenly stunned: "Little brother Shizi, are you worried about me?" β
"Who would worry about you?" Song Nanzhou snorted coldly: "If it weren't for Tang Shaozong's fool who couldn't sleep because he was worried, I wouldn't have bothered to pay attention to you." β
"It's obviously you're worried about yourself, but you still have to get involved with Fourth Brother Tang." Wen Xiang looked at him with a smile.
Song Nanzhou turned over and glared at her, and was about to open his mouth to deny it, saying that he was not worried about her, so he listened to Wen Xiang's soft tone, and smiled obediently: "I'm sorry for worrying you, I will be more careful in the future and not let myself be hurt." β
Song Nanzhou's words of denial could not be spoken.
He rolled over again, "It's good to know." β
I don't know if his sentence "it's good to know" is that Wen Xiang knows his worries, or that Wen Xiang will be more careful to protect himself in the future, in short, after he said this, he refused to communicate with Wen Xiang.
Wen Xiang was not angry, but felt warm in her heart.
Although the little brother of the prince is very awkward, it feels good to be cared for by others.
β¦β¦
Probably because of poor spirits, Wen Xiang slept very deeply this night, didn't have a dream, and it was already daylight when he opened his eyes.
Song Nanzhou was naturally out of the house for a long time.
Wen Xiang subconsciously searched and saw that he was in a barracks full of official documents, drinking tea and holding a meeting with a group of people.
The atmosphere looked pretty good, everyone had a heartfelt smile on their faces, and looking at Song Nanzhou's eyes, it was no longer the disgust and ignorance of the previous few days, but anticipation and excitement.
Wen Xiang looked at it again, and understood the reason for their anticipationβthere was a bright yellow holy decree on the table.
Presumably this is the holy decree that Song Nanzhou took her into the palace that day, and begged for the centurions who won the Wuxiang camp.
Sure enough, with the blessing of this holy decree, the aspiring young people in the Wuxiang camp all felt that they had a head.
unconsciously regarded Song Nanzhou as their leader.
Everyone was talking and laughing, but Wen Xiang couldn't hear what they said, and after watching it for a while, she felt bored, so she turned her eyes away.
In a blink of an eye, I saw a figure sneaking into Song Nanzhou's barracks, and no one paid attention to it, so he pried open the window and came in.
Take a closer look, the thief who came in through the window was Jiang Xinghuai, who had made her embarrassed before and couldn't get into the cracks in the ground!
What does he want to do?
Wen Xiang watched Jiang Xinghuai enter Song Nanzhou's house, rummaging around, not even letting go of the bed, and when he turned his head, he saw Wen Xiang on the bedside table.
He was overjoyed, grabbed Wen Xiang in his hand, and then frowned again: "If this wrench is really that important, how could Song Nanzhou throw it away?" Could it be that he has other wrenches hidden in this house? β
muttered like this, but still stuffed Wen Xiang into his arms, rummaged for a while, and saw that there was no other wrench, so he gave up, followed the way he came, and left through the window.
Stolen Warm Incense: "......"
At the beginning, Wen Xiang thought that Jiang Xinghuai slipped in to avenge Song Nanzhou's shameful and humiliating revenge for touching his bird, because she was the culprit, and she was very guilty.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Xinghuai did not come for revenge at all, but for her.
This is really strange, who told Jiang Xinghuai that her wrench is very important to Song Nanzhou?
Wen Xiang is not in a hurry, she doesn't believe that anyone will know her secret, and even if she does, that person probably doesn't know that she has the ability to change whoever she wants, and if there is any danger at that time, she will just slip away, and then find Song Nanzhou, the rescuer, to snatch the wrench back.
Now, she wants to see what the hell Jiang Xinghuai is doing.
β¦β¦
Jiang Xinghuai did not disappoint Wen Xiang either, he took Wen Xiang to take advantage of the unpreparedness and slipped to the back mountain of the Wuxiang camp.
A man covered in a black cloak was waiting next to the waterhole with his hands in his hands, Wen Xiang didn't see his appearance clearly, he was first shocked by his such an unsightly dress and a big appearance in the old place where the soldiers were playing in the water, such an extremely contradictory style, but then he understood, this person made such an unsightly dress, I think it is really unseemly, so why did he openly appear by the waterhole that would be discovered at any time? Presumably, this person knows very well that this point in time is the time for the soldiers to hum in the school field.
Wen Xiang, who figured this out, went to see what this person looked like.
It turned out to be a handsome half-race guy!
is different from the high nose and deep eyes of the Great Zhou people, so that people can tell the difference between him and the Great Zhou people at a glance. This person is not from the Central Plains, is he from a foreign land?
Without waiting for Wen Xiang to think about it, the man had already turned around and said in a slightly stiff voice: "Jiang Gongzi, what did you bring?" β
Jiang Xinghuai took Wen Xiang out of his arms, and when he was about to hand it out, he withdrew his hand: "You promised me ...... conditions?"
"Naturally, it will soon be delivered." The man smiled slightly, revealing a mouthful of neat white teeth, which made a good impression at first sight.
But no matter how impressive he is on the surface, Wen Xiang still doesn't like his sneaky style.
Especially since the object of his sneaking is still her.
"Don't lie to me." Jiang Xinghuai stared at him suspiciously: "What if I give you something, but you break your promise?" No, I can't give you this thing for the time being, when you take Song Nanzhou's dog's head, I'll give you this wrench! β
After he finished speaking, he turned around and was about to leave.
However, he could never go again.
The man in black, who was originally a few steps away from Jiang Xinghuai, didn't even see how Wen Xiang moved, but in the blink of an eye, he had already deceived Jiang Xinghuai. He turned his fingers into claws and grabbed Jiang Xinghuai's neck.
Jiang Xinghuai couldn't even scream, just heard a "click", his neck twisted to the side in a strange posture, and his frightened expression was forever frozen at this moment.
The man in black threw Jiang Xinghuai, who was already out of breath, casually, as if he was not a person who lost it, but a bag of garbage as easily and naturally.
Wen Xiang looked creepy.
This feeling was even more terrifying than the first time she saw Song Nanzhou doing evil in the hunting ground.
The chilling sensation spreads from the soles of the feet all the way to the top of the head.
Before she could think more, the man had already bent down and took her from Jiang Xinghuai's hand.
He held the warm incense, facing the blazing sun, and squinted his eyes slightly, "You are the Lingyu mentioned in the Great Witch Letter?" β
What big witch?
Wen Xiang was curious to die, except for Song Nanzhou, Tang Shaozong and Xu Shen who knew her peculiarities, no one else in this world should know her.
So who is the great witch in this mouth?
Wen Xiang's heart moved, this person is from a foreign land, the old monk who summoned her here at the beginning, she vaguely remembered that Xu Shen said that the old monk was from the Western Regions!
Could it be that the great witch in his mouth is an old monk who has died?
Without allowing Wen Xiang to think about it, the man was already impatient: "I know you can speak. β
Wen Xiangcai didn't want to pay attention, she wanted to sleep, she wanted to go back to find Song Nanzhou, this time it would become...... It's good to become Tang Shaozong!
She doesn't want to become a man, but in this place full of men, if she wants to get closer to Song Nanzhou, she has to become a man.
But Wen Xiang miscalculated this time, and before she could sleep, the man found a ghost drawing talisman out of nowhere and pasted it on Wen Xiang's body.
Wen Xiang suddenly felt as if she had been burned by fire, and involuntarily shrank up.
"You won't be able to run away now." The man smiled confidently, closed his five fingers, and jumped down from the high cliff like a big bird.
Wen Xiang watched him leave the Wuxiang camp as if he had entered a no-man's land, flew up and rode a black horse that had been prepared and hidden in the forest, and with a flick of the whip, the horse galloped.
She had a bad premonition in her heart, and she couldn't wait to fall asleep, so she tentatively wanted to rush out. However, as soon as she moved, she felt the burning sensation that could burn her to ashes.
So she's ...... Imprisoned in this wrench?
Wen Xiang, who realized her situation at this time, was dumbfounded, originally when she was a wrench, although she couldn't leave the wrench at first, she didn't have the slightest sense of restraint and restraint.
But now, as if she had been trapped hand and foot, she did not dare to move at will, and if she moved, she would be burned by fire.
Wen Xiang suddenly thought of the rune paper that the man had pasted on him.
Wen Xiang couldn't help but tremble.
Little brother, come and help!
β¦β¦
Song Nanzhou went back to his barracks after the meeting, and as soon as he entered the door, he noticed that something was wrong, and he didn't bother to check if he had lost other valuables, so Song Nanzhou went straight to the bedside table.
In the next moment, his eyebrows sank, his thin lips pursed, and his eyes suddenly became sharp: "Someone!" β
The little soldier guarding the door hurriedly ran in: "My lord, what are your orders?" β
"Who came to my house just now?" Song Nanzhou asked in a deep voice.
The little soldier was excited, and hurriedly bowed and replied, "No one has come to look for adults. β
"The order goes down, I have lost something important in the barracks, and I will immediately have the whole camp search!"
At this time, Song Nanzhou was not too worried, he knew Wen Xiang's ability, even if someone stole it, she could become someone else and run back to him.
He was a little worried that the wrench had been taken away, and it would be wrong for her to have no place to live in the future. If the person who stole the wrench is a clumsy person and breaks the wrench, the consequences are really unimaginable.
The matter of searching the Wuxiang camp was handed over to the newly appointed centurions, and these centurions who had passed the pass before they were appointed naturally did their best, and they also had to do a good job of the work that Shangfeng had explained.
Soon, Jiang Xinghuai's head was found.
Someone saw Jiang Xinghuai sneaking to the back mountain.
When Song Nanzhou arrived at the back mountain, what he saw was the corpse of Jiang Xinghuai, who had been choked off his throat and fell to the ground, and his eyes were still wide open.
During the time of waiting for the military doctor to come, Song Nanzhou silently surveyed the surrounding surroundings, Tang Shaozong looked at Song Nanzhou with a solemn expression, thought about it, and walked over to Jiang Xinghuai's corpse.
In the days of eating and drinking in Jiuli Mountain, he also learned from his uncle twice, of course, he couldn't compare with Princess Qing's two strokes at all.
"Song Da, Jiang Xinghuai was choked to death by someone who cut his throat." Enduring the discomfort in his heart, Tang Shaozong frowned and checked Jiang Xinghuai over and over twice: "There are no other wounds on his body, and there are no traces of struggle, it is a one-stroke killing." β
"The person who came here is very powerful." Song Nanzhou summarized lightly: "Did he find my wrench on his body?" β
Tang Shaozong was taken aback, only then did he know what Song Nanzhou had lost, and hurriedly searched Jiang Xinghuai over and over again, this time he didn't even let go of his hair, and when he raised his head, his usual smiling eyes had sunk to the bottom: "No!" He must have been taken by his killers! β
Song Nanzhou nodded, "Inform the Jiang family to come and collect the body." β
One of the centurions took the order.
Tang Shaozong glanced at Song Nanzhou, who was standing on the edge of the cliff with his hands in his hands, the mountain wind blew his clothes hunting, his face was cold, and the whole person looked calm and cold.
"Song Da, Jiang Xinghuai died in the Wuxiang camp, I'm afraid this matter will not be good." Tang Shaozong was very worried, "The Jiang family will definitely hold on to it!" β
Song Nanzhou said lightly: "I want to go to the palace." β
"Yes, yes, yes, you have to rush ahead of the Jiang family, tell Your Majesty about this matter, and Your Majesty will be in charge, then the Jiang family, there must be nothing else to say." Tang Shaozong came back to his senses and hurriedly urged him: "Then you go quickly!" If you go early and return early, you have to find the little fairy, I don't know who she has fallen into, so I must be very scared at this time. β
