Chapter 23: I can't guess
Entering the house through the open paper window, seeing that Ma Xiu was unconscious, Liu Xi carried Wu Shuang'er into his room. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
The door that was kicked by him creaked, and on one side, there was a little guy who was napping with his head down, perhaps because he heard the sound, he raised his head with a spirit, saw Liu Xi, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Childe, you are back, what happened here?" ā
As he spoke, he saw Wu Shuang'er who was unconscious, and immediately panicked, "Childe, but a traitor has entered the inn, and the villain will go to report to the official." ā
"Little brother, there is no need to be afraid, it's just that my sister suddenly contracted the wind cold, I was in a hurry, and I hit this door, so there is such a thing, and I will take some silver with you later, and it should be to compensate for this loss."
The little guy waved his hand again and again, "I can't help it, the prince is a guest of the palace, if the little one accepts it, won't he be scolded by the shopkeeper?" The wooden door of this house is broken, and when it is uninhabitable, the villain will replace it with one for the son. ā
I hurried downstairs, and after a while, I saw him panting again, and with the key in his hand, he opened the room diagonally opposite.
Carefully put Wu Shuang'er on the bed, Liu Xi threw a piece of broken silver and the little guy, the latter naturally bent down to pay a salute in gratitude, and after a while closed the wooden door from the outside and retreated.
Back to the bedside, Liu Xi covered Wu Shuang'er with a quilt, the little girl fell asleep and was so beautiful, maybe she saw something in her dream, her long eyelashes were as black as a feather flickering, and she was muttering about a dream that she couldn't understand.
After sorting out Wu Shuang'er's slightly messy green silk, Liu Xi sighed with emotion in his heart, fortunately, there was a false alarm, if something happened to such a lovely girl, wouldn't he have to resent it for the rest of his life?
Sitting on the edge of the bed, Liu Xi couldn't help but think of the previous incident, and in a fit of anger, he killed Hang Deyi, and I am afraid that this Xinyang City will not be able to stay.
For the sake of today, only by leaving this place early can we avoid trouble, but if we leave, where will we go to find this soldier?
Thinking about it, Liu Xi is still at a loss, and his chest is becoming more and more depressed, and the road in front of him is like being covered by fog, so that he can't see where to go, all he can do is to take one step at a time, maybe after the inextricable green willows, he will see the realm of flowers.
And at this moment, in Xinyang City, as Liu Xi expected, there were bursts of horses' hooves and torches, as if the entire city was going to be turned upside down.
Zhenxi Palace, just like this outside, the guards have raised their troops, set up defenses, and are very busy, although the people are panicked, but they are also busy with life, so the palace is a time when people are looking forward to it, and it is very lively.
But even so, there was still a place that was as clean as usual, and no one was allowed to approach the study of the king of Zhenxi.
Just like Li Fengge, who is extremely worried at the moment, he can only stand five feet away from the study with his sword, and he doesn't dare to take a step forward.
I don't know what my father is thinking, at this moment, he can still be so safe, if the assassin is here, how can it be good?
Looking around with great concern, Li Fengge waved his hand, causing the guards who had already stood in their positions to change direction again, forming a fan shape and surrounding the study.
"Lord Wang, are you just messing around with them like this?"
In the study, the night pearl was shining brightly, like a star falling to the ground, and it was a young man wearing a purple jade hair crown and a purple jacquard gold silk robe.
The young man's face was radiant, like a pearlescent jade, and he seemed to be under the age of a weak crown, and he was sitting casually on the sandalwood chair carved with flowers and hundreds of birds and phoenixes.
And this wooden chair is one of the treasures that King Zhenxi loves very much.
"Something has happened, how can this resentment be vented if you don't let them toss it?"
Without looking up, King Zhenxi whispered, and the pen in his hand was still writing on rice paper.
Hearing this, the young man smiled, his slender fingers tapped on the armrest of the wooden chair, and the crisp 'click' sound shattered the silence in the study, the king of Zhenxi frowned slightly, but the young man had no self-knowledge, and knocked on the meeting again before he spoke, "In this case, does the prince plan to ask him for the blame?" ā
Hearing this, King Zhenxi stopped the pen in his hand, raised his eyes and looked at the young man, his eyes were not angry but threatening, "Your Excellency doesn't need to bother with this kind of thing, do the agreed thing well, and after the thing is completed, this king will never lose his word." ā
"Hehe, this is natural, although Zhang Shaolu is humble and light-hearted, but this kind of thing is still done by the lord, and the prince is waiting for good news."
After that, I saw the rice paper in front of the case of King Zhenxi moving slightly, as if a cold wind was blowing into the house, and when the rice paper stopped shaking, the young man had disappeared.
It seems that they have never come, even if they are on guard outside the house, Li Fengge and the others, who are holding swords, have never seen half of the figure.
For a long time, the king of Zhenxi in the study put the pen on the inkstone, and on the white paper in front of him, a few lines of words were written in gold hook and silver, and if you look closely, it is just a repetitive sentence.
"I don't see the tomb of Wuling Haojie, and I have no flowers and no wine to cultivate the fields."
The light flashed in his eyes, and the king of Zhenxi looked up at the 'Peach Blossom Fu' that had been hung on the wall of his study, and couldn't help but think of the situation in the daytime, "You two people are so bold, if so, it is worth it to make you loyal to my Datang." ā
At the end of the night, when the morning light was first sprinkled, Ma Xiu, who was fascinated, finally woke up, and he was a little dizzy and rushed to Liu Xi's room, waiting to see that the wooden door was destroyed and the room was empty.
Fortunately, Liu Xi, who heard the movement, went out and called him, and the latter breathed a sigh of relief, "Brother Yusheng, where is Shuang'er?" ā
After hearing that Wu Shuang'er was fine, Ma Xiu wiped the sweat beads on her forehead, shook the paper fan, fanned it a few times, pushed open the door later, and glanced at the sleeping little girl a few times, and then quietly retreated.
"Brother Yusheng, who did this?"
This kind of caring and eager appearance can't be faked, Liu Xi saw it in his eyes, and couldn't help but feel that Ma Xiu was a little closer, so he replied softly, "Hang Deyi." ā
"It's him!"
Obviously, Ma Xiu was very surprised, and after coming back to his senses, he closed the paper fan, and was about to turn around and go downstairs, "Brother Yusheng, you are here to take care of Shuang'er, Xiu is going to beat him all over the ground to find teeth!" ā
"No, he's dead."
Hearing this, Ma Xiu's body was shocked, he stopped moving forward, turned his head in some shock, and stared at Liu Xi, as if to distinguish whether he was joking or not.
After a while, seeing Liu Xi's calm face, Ma Xiu only felt that his scalp was numb, so since Hang Deyi could get into the eyes of King Zhenxi, in addition to that bit of literary brilliance, it must also be related to his illustrious family background.
Otherwise, how could they be so arrogant?
This is not comparable to those ruffians in Guojiazhuang, if they are arrested and put in prison, where can they come out alive, thinking of this, Ma Xiu immediately broke into a cold sweat, turned around and walked towards Liu Xi, "Brother Yusheng, this place should not be long, let's leave quickly." ā
As he was talking, he saw the little guy walking up the wooden stairs last night, maybe it was the effect of the broken silver, and when he saw Liu Xi, the smile on his face was even more than before, "Oh, have the two sons already gotten up?" The steward of the palace came again, saying that the prince invited Ma Gongzi over. ā
Hearing this, the paper fan in Ma Xiu's hand almost fell to the ground, and waved his hand at the little guy, "You go first, I'll come later." ā
After the little guy left, Ma Xiu grabbed Liu Xi's sleeve and said anxiously, "Brother Yusheng, quickly, you take Shuang'er out of the city, and embroider here to make some resistance." ā
"Brother Jinchao, Liu Xi will not leave you."
Jian eyebrows tightened, Liu Xi said in a low voice, after getting along in the past few days, he has already been infected by Ma Xiu's frankness, since he is a close friend, he must not watch him stay in the dangerous Xinyang City.
After Ma Xiu heard this, a slight strangeness flashed in his eyes, and then he fanned the paper in his right hand, "Don't worry, Brother Yusheng, I'll be fine." ā
As he spoke, he urged Liu Xi to leave with Wu Shuang'er again, and even took out the package and packed up the clothes and playthings he had bought for Wu Shuang'er before.
"Wait, brother today, don't panic."
Liu Xi, who had been silent, stretched out his hand to stop him, and seeing the puzzled look in the latter's eyes, he continued, "If the King of Zhenxi wants to arrest you and me, he must send 'Shui Han' here, no matter how bad it is, dozens of armor soldiers will surround this inn, and now he just let his steward come to look for you, there should be no hostility." ā
Ma Xiu stopped the package that was about to be tied in his hand, thought for a moment, and nodded in response, "This is indeed a bit strange, could it be that the king of Zhenxi still doesn't know about it?" ā
"No, the king of Zhenxi sits in Xinyang City, so that Liu Han has not been able to attack for many years, he must be a masterpiece, how can this kind of person not have many eyeliners in the city? How could he not have received such a message about such a thing in the inn? Now, no one was sent to arrest you and me, but you were invited to the palace, but it is impossible to guess the intention. ā
The paper fan tapped on the palm of his hand, Ma Xiu was also puzzled, and later inserted the paper fan into his waist, and handed the large package full of things to Liu Xi, "No matter what, Brother Yusheng, this Xinyang City is not a place to stay for a long time after all, you still leave with Shuang'er, and Xiu will go to meet you." ā
Taking the package and throwing it aside, Liu Xi sat on the edge of the bed, looked at Wu Shuang'er who was sleeping soundly, and stroked her delicate cheek with his hand, "Brother Jinchao, Xi will not leave you alone, besides, if the king of Zhenxi really wants to arrest me and others, it will be difficult to get out of the city, and Xi doesn't want Shuang'er to follow me to hide in Tibet." ā
Saying that, Liu Xi raised his head, "If I can't guess, the king of Zhenxi will definitely talk about this when he goes to you, whether it is a blessing or a curse, and he will know when he comes back today." ā
"That's it, Ma Jinchao will accompany you crazy once."
When Ma Xiu got to this, he stomped his feet and went out to find the steward of the palace.
