Three days later, Xia Zimo followed the shadow guard to appear in King Chen's palace.

"Wang ...... Lord, the emperor is here. The doorman ran to King Chen in a panic and said.

"Your Majesty?" Chen Wang was very surprised, and even more disbelieving.

"The emperor drove to ......"

With the majestic voice of the cold mountain, Xia Zimo appeared in the palace. Although he was wearing civilian clothes, that kingly bearing could not be ignored.

Others don't know Xia Zimo, but King Chen still knows, after all, Xia Zimo is his nephew. The same eyebrows and eyes as his imperial brother still make King Chen feel uncomfortable.

"See the emperor." When King Chen saw Xia Zimo, he immediately knelt down, and the people in the mansion also knelt down when they saw the prince kneeling.

Xia Zimo stood straight and looked at Wang Chen with a deep look, which contained many complex emotions, but they were not good feelings.

"Bring it on." Xia Zimo said lightly.

Soon a person was brought up from outside the mansion, it was Fang Weibing who was chasing and killing Xia Zimo and Qiu Luoxue. At this time, he completely lost the arrogance of chasing others, his clothes were dirty and bloodstained, and his hair was fluffy and messy. He had scars on his eyes, and when he looked closely, he realized that he had been blinded.

"I brought someone to Uncle Huang, I don't know if Uncle Huang recognizes him." Xia Zimo said, with a chill in his eyes, and his tone was completely cold.

After listening to his words, King Chen looked up, and when he saw Fang Weibing, he knew that the plan to assassinate Qiu Luoxue had failed. It's just that why did Xia Zimo appear here to ask him about his guilt? Could it be that Qiu Luoxue asked the capital for help?

Xia Zimo was able to let go of the government and come to Qiu Luoxue, making King Chen feel that his decision to order Qiu Luoxue to be killed was not wrong. That person, as long as he is in the court, will be an obstacle to his great cause. It's just that this time it failed, which is a pity.

"This person is a guard in my house, and he provoked the emperor somewhere. In any case, it was the minister's improper discipline, and the emperor was asked to condemn him. ”

King Chen's words were very profound, acknowledging his relationship with Fang Weibing, but showing that he did not know what Fang Weibing had done, and denied that Fang Weibing's actions were related to him. In addition, those who asked the emperor to condemn themselves were all clichés, intended to show their meekness.

Of course, Xia Zimo would not be deceived by his words, and King Chen did not expect to use these words to dispel Xia Zimo's concerns. It's just a face-saving effort, and you still have to get by.

"This person is in Kangzhou, assassinating Prime Minister Qiu, but he was instructed by the emperor's uncle?" Xia Zimo said that he didn't say this to be tempted, because he already had the answer in his heart for that matter. This was just to make King Chen panic, and also to warn him not to fight Qiu Luoxue's idea again.

"Your Majesty, the minister has been wronged." After listening to Xia Zimo's words, King Chen immediately kowtowed and shouted injustice.

"The minister just sent him to Connecticut for disaster relief, who would have thought that he would assassinate the prime minister. Weichen really didn't know about this matter, and I hope Your Majesty will find out. Chen Wang continued.

Xia Zimo knew very well that by using the assassination of Qiu Luoxue, he could not completely understand the power of King Chen. Since the time of his father's reign, King Chen began to cultivate his own power in the court, and if he wanted to understand his power, he needed more ample excuses, and it was also an impatient process.

It's just that he didn't plan to just go over the assassination of Qiu Luoxue, so he said: "Since Uncle Huang doesn't know, he is naturally not afraid of me investigating." I heard that two of the men you sent to Connecticut have returned, and I sent someone to find them, so Uncle Huang shouldn't mind. ”

"Of course I don't mind, if they really did the assassination of the Prime Minister, Weichen would be the first to spare them." Chen Wang said.

"If the Prime Minister is wronged, it is enough for me to make up for it, so I don't have to worry about Uncle Huang."

Xia Zimo glanced at King Chen gently, his eyes contained warnings, killing intent, suspicion and other emotions, and King Chen, who saw it, silently wiped a handful of sweat in his heart.

"What?! The emperor is not in the palace, isn't this nonsense? ”

Xia Zimo wrote in his letter to Xia Ziyan that he would not be in the capital publicly. So when Xia Zimo appeared in King Chen's mansion today, Xia Ziyan also told the ministers of the court that he was not in the capital. This is also a layer of protection, publicizing his whereabouts, so that King Chen does not dare to make small moves in secret.

After Xia Zimo left, King Chen kept a gloomy face. It seems that before, he underestimated Xia Zimo and Qiu Luoxue. This time, not only did he fail to kill Qiu Luoxue, but he also lost three generals, which was really worth the loss.

"Lord Wang, there is news from the direction of Connecticut, two days ago, Xu Zhonghang was also arrested." A guard came in and said.

This news made King Chen even more angry, he angrily threw the cup on the table off the table, and said angrily: "Waste, what happened two days ago, you only came to report it today, what is the use of this king raising you?"

"The prince is angry, it's really the news that has been blocked over there, and there is no way to investigate." The guard said cautiously.

After getting angry, King Chen's anger subsided a lot, and he waved his hand and said, "You go down."

Xu Zhonghang meditated in prison clothes and closed his eyes. Although the environment in the prison was very poor, it did not affect his mood at all, and there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Yo...... You're pretty comfortable. Qiu Luoxue stood outside the cell and looked at Xu Zhonghang and said.

"What can I do if I'm not comfortable? You can't let me out now. Xu Zhonghang said, slowly opening his eyes.

Qiu Luoxue took out the key to open the door of the cell, walked in with the food box, and said: "This is also a helpless thing, in order not to let King Chen suspect you, you can only go through the motions, lock you up for a few days, and you will be able to get out soon."

"No, I'm afraid that you will be bored in prison, so I specially brought wine and food to see you." Qiu Luoxue raised the food box in her hand when she spoke, looking like she was inviting merit.

"It's not in vain that I'm working for you." Xu Zhonghang said with a smile.

Then the two drank and ate food in the prison and chatted, although the surrounding environment was not good, but it also had a different flavor.

"I found your son-in-law, and I can return to normal in the future." Wu Zhi said to Jasper.

The two were in the verandah of the courtyard, Biyu was sitting on the verandah, and Wu Zhi was leaning on the pillar next to him. Through this incident of looking for Qiu Luoxue, the distance between the two has been narrowed a lot. Jasper has also changed from hating Wuzhi at the beginning to trusting.

"yes, I'm glad I found my son." Jasper said in a happy tone.

Wu Zhi looked down at Jasper's hair and said, "If I find your son-in-law, I should go back too, and the brothers are still waiting for me to go back in the cottage."

"Are you going back?" Biyu, who had been keeping her head down, suddenly heard that Wu Zhi was leaving, looked up at him and asked.

"It's been a long time, it's time to go back." Wu Zhi said.

Biyu couldn't say anything to keep him, so she could only say, "It's time to go back."

If Jasper opened his mouth to keep it, Wu Zhi would definitely stay, but he didn't hear the words of the reservation.

There was a long silence after that. Wu Zhi finally mustered up the courage, took out the hairpin he had bought in advance, handed it to Biyu, and said, "This is me, I bought it at the market...... Ahem, I think it's very suitable for you, you can keep it. ”

Jasper looked at the white hairpin, the tail was in the shape of a lotus flower, and when the sun fell, the light invaded the hairpin, making its color look better.

Biyu is used to seeing all kinds of rare items in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and Qiu Luoxue often rewards them with many things. She could see that the hairpin was not very good, but she liked it very much.

Biyu reached out and took the hairpin from Wu Zhi's hand, and her fingers shone in the sun's rays, like fine white jade. Wu Zhi looked at those hands greedily, not wanting to look away.

"Thank you." Jasper said with a smile.

Wu Zhi also smiled, but he was in a trance, and he didn't know if the sun had lost his eyes or the beauty had lost his eyes.

"If you like it, then I'll go." After Wu Zhi finished speaking, he left.

Biyu looked at the back of Wu Zhi leaving, and wanted to say something, but in the end she couldn't say it. Looking at the hairpin in his hand, he was a little melancholy.

"How? What do you think? Did you say that? As soon as Wu Zhi came out of the courtyard, he was surrounded by his younger brother, and they asked.

"Say what?" Wu Zhi looked away from them and asked rhetorically.

As soon as the younger brother saw his reaction, he knew that he didn't say it, and said with hatred: "Oh, big brother, why are you so cowardly, is it so difficult to tell Miss Jasper what you want?" When they return to the capital, you will never have a chance. ”

"Stinky boy, you still kicked your nose in the face, why did you coax it?" Wu Zhi heard his little brother say this about him, and slapped him on the back of the head.

"Yo, a token of love." Biyu was looking at the hairpin in her hand, and Allure suddenly leaned over and said.

Biyu heard someone hurriedly put away the hairpin and said, "What a love token, it's just a hairpin."

"Didn't Wuzhi give it to you, I saw it all. You think it's just a hairpin, but people don't think so. Allure sat down next to Jasper and said.

After sitting down, Allure said again: "In my opinion, Wu Zhi definitely has affection for you. He is good, loyal and considerate, you have to take advantage of it. If you miss it, you will regret it. ”

"What about affection? Sooner or later, we have to go back to the capital. Our identity cannot be free. Biyu's sadness seemed to be really mourning the impossible fate between her and Wu Zhi.

"yes, one day is a shadow guard, and a lifetime is a shadow guard." Allure said.

"Fortunately, we were photographed next to Childe. Childe's status in Daqin is noble, and he is so good to us, maybe one day he will let us go. Allure suddenly said hopefully.

At the mention of Qiu Luoxue, Biyu's eyes also seemed to be full of hope, and said, "I hope so."

"What are you going to do if you really regain your freedom?" Jasper asked Allure Road.

"I'm ......," Allure thought for a moment and said, "I'll probably be a shadow guard." ”

"Why do you want to be a shadow guard, I finally regained my freedom." Jasper asked, puzzled.

"That's right, I'm finally free......" Allure said quietly, and Nie Yuan's figure appeared in front of her eyes.
