Chapter 496: Fleeing in the Desert and Pointing to the Marriage
When the depressed Zhong Xiaobai left Yinghuatang with one foot high and one foot low, the unusually bleak back gradually disappeared from everyone's sight, Xiao Jingxian stretched lazily and clapped his hands vigorously.
"Everyone, today, let me, Wuyingguan Mountain, who sells dog meat with a sheep's head, grow up and have a big face! I do what I say, the best garden in Jinling City is the Lishui Garden of the Royal Annex, the best troupe in the capital, it is the Detian Society, the best cook in the capital, it is Liu Yidao of Yongning Building and Zhao Qingshui of Tianshui Ju, in the next three days, enjoy the garden, the flowing water seat, and sing the big opera, all of them! ”
Although Xiao Jingxian said that it had only been many days since he arrived in Jinling, and the time he officially came to Wuying Hall was even shorter, he did not have the slightest prince in front of a group of teenagers, he was unscrupulous, he did not like to joke seriously in class, and he also revealed a secret to them in a matter-of-fact manner, saying that he was seriously injured and should not do anything, and he had to rely on them to protect him...... Therefore, except for a few people such as Zhou Jiyue, who was specially reminded by Yue Qianqiu to keep an eye on the brother-in-law of the Northern Yan Emperor, most of the other students had a more or less favorable impression of Xiao Jingxian.
Because of this, at this time, Xiao Jingxian boldly said that he would fulfill his promise, and after a moment of unbelievable silence, the teenagers suddenly burst into cheers! And in the midst of this cheer, a very loud voice sounded.
"Today is not just to celebrate that we won, do we have to celebrate, our big brother Zhou has become sister Zhou?"
In an instant, there was silence all around. Everyone looked at the person who was shouting, so that Bai Bufan looked at those many strange eyes, especially Yue Qianqiu's eyes that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, and his heart was unconsciously a little hairy. He wiped the beads of sweat that unconsciously appeared on his forehead, and said, "Did I say the wrong thing?" ”
"Yes, of course yes!" Yue Qianqiu smiled and gave a thumbs up, and said loudly, "Since it is extraordinary and you proposed, you have to represent so many brothers and sisters in our Wuying Pavilion to pour you Sister Zhou a few more cups, and then condemn him for deceiving us so hard, everyone is counting on you!" ”
As soon as these words came out, Bai Bufan only felt that the eight knife-like eyes instantly fell on him, and found that they were the four heroines who had often revolved around Zhou Jiyue in the past, and he couldn't help but be inexplicable when he didn't know where he was wrong. It wasn't until he was pulled by a few teenagers who got along well in the past to hook his shoulders and ask him that he was dumbfounded.
"You and Jiugongzi have always been close, did you already know that Sect Master Zhou was a woman, so you deliberately provoked her when you had nothing to do?"
"That's right, Brother Bai, you're not interesting enough! If you didn't talk about such a big thing earlier, I thought you really couldn't get used to seeing Sect Master Zhou too 'attracting bees and butterflies', and competing with her for jealousy! It turns out that you are here to show your face in front of people! ”
"Recruit from the truth, when did you know?"
Seeing that Bai Bufan was about to go crazy, and at that point he explained that he didn't know from beginning to end, Yue Qianqiu couldn't help but gloat. However, in an instant, he saw Song Pujia coming over with Emei Sanshu angrily, and he suddenly secretly screamed that it was not good. Knowing that they must stop himself from being the one who is obviously in the know, he ran away without saying a word.
After getting out of the encirclement, he ran to the door with a smoke, and then turned his head and shouted: "I'll go to the eldest princess to intercede and borrow Lishui Garden, and the rest will be handed over to His Royal Highness King Jin!" Ji Yue, you have to be righteous, I think when I went to the dock, I was shocked to see your men's clothes, you asked me to help you keep it secret! ”
Seeing Yue Qianqiu running fast with oil on the soles of her feet, and pushing a problem to herself, Zhou Jiyue was suddenly angry and funny. However, when she saw the four little heroines who had just planned to besiege come back, she didn't question herself at all, but was arrogant to the teenagers, claiming that she would go to class with them in the future, and her last bit of hesitation disappeared completely.
And after the laughter, the teenagers naturally inevitably surrounded Xiao Jing to ask questions, and the most concerned was the huge expenses of these three days - after all, after staying in Jinling City for so long, everyone knew how much the expenses were here. For such worries, Xiao Jingxian's answer was extremely arrogant.
"Don't worry, people can't stand without faith, even if you eat and drink and play with me for a few years in the past three days, I Xiao Jingxian won't starve to death! The little ones, since Qianqiu is going to borrow Lishui Garden, everyone will go to invite the cook and the troupe in two ways, and make a quick decision! ”
Just when there was jubilation in Yinghua Hall, Zhou Jiyue, who had sharp ears, heard a weak voice: "I said, I still have an appointment at noon, can I go first?" ”
Seeing the third prince sitting there helplessly, Zhou Jiyue suddenly secretly scolded Yue Qianqiu for taking people out and leaving them there, and then took the initiative to step forward and said: "Qianqiu is in a hurry, and I have neglected His Royal Highness the Third Prince for a while, I'll send you out!" ”
"Sect Master Zhou, you can't leave, you see, so many people are waiting to hear you tell them about the legends of these years, or I should go there myself and send people outside."
Xiao Jingxian suddenly interrupted, and when he saw that a few girls really blocked Zhou Jiyue tightly, he dragged the third prince out without saying a word. Seeing this scene, Zhou Jiyue had the heart to follow, but there were people all around, so she could only quickly glance at her clever apprentice Zhang Wuyong, and she was relieved to see people follow.
Xiao Jingxian didn't seem to notice a small tail behind his back, and when he got out of Yinghua Hall, he let go of his hand casually, as if he didn't notice that the third prince immediately flashed to the side, keeping a distance of at least three steps from him, but he walked lightly with his hands behind his back and asked, "Do you think it will be smooth sailing on the road when you take Xiao Twelve back to Beiyan this time?" ”
Faced with such a straightforward question, the third prince didn't even notice that Xiao Jingxian had changed his title from Da Yan to Northern Yan, and he was suddenly a little embarrassed, but thinking that Xiao Jingxian was now in the Southern Dynasty, but he had not yet successfully left, he could only swallow his anger: "No matter how many difficulties and obstacles there are on the road ahead, I will definitely overcome them one by one, and those who want me to die will never succeed!" ”
"Anyone can say bold words, but it is extremely difficult to do it, do you know how I got out of Beiyan and Beijing?" Xiao Jing first turned his head sideways to look at the third prince, suddenly reached out and patted him on the shoulder, and said calmly, "I deliberately led those people who hated me to the bone to stab me, and then I was almost stabbed through the shoulder with two swords. In this way, I, who can't afford to be seriously injured, naturally becomes a commodity that can't be turned over in the eyes of others. ”
Seeing that the third prince's face turned pale in an instant, he smiled slightly, but that smile was no longer as sunny as it was in the Yinghua Hall just now, but revealed an indescribable coldness.
"Do you think that with Nanwu supporting you behind you, and Xiao Twelve as your ally, you will be able to go all the way back to Shangjing, and then fight with your younger brothers? You're thinking too simply. Since you plan to go back to the most dangerous whirlpool in Shangjing, you have to be determined to die, otherwise you don't have to go back at all, and you will eat and wait for death here in Jinling. ”
The third prince was finally so angry that Xiao Jingxian was so angry that he trembled. He subconsciously pounced, but his hands didn't grab Xiao Jingxian's collar at all, and he was grabbed by his wrist in turn, and the feeling of being locked like iron tongs made him exhale painfully unconsciously. But then he bit his lip and gasped for air.
"Nanwu is just planning to send you back under the idea of waste utilization, if you really take yourself too seriously, then you have miscalculated. For the sake of you finally knowing how to fight and kill the slaves around you, I will give you a piece of advice. Recruit a few more who can fight, you know, even if the Concubine Hui family really has such a person, they will not give it to you easily, and even if it is given to you, once you accept it, don't you worry about becoming someone's puppet in the future? ”
Finding that Xiao Jingxian's advice was the same as Yue Qianqiu's advice, the third prince was stunned. He didn't even notice that the force that was firmly clamping his wrist suddenly loosened, until Xiao Jingxian continued to move forward, and he hurriedly staggered up a few steps, and then asked with difficulty: "But what can I use to recruit people?" ”
Xiao Jingxian smiled. It wasn't until the third prince finally barely caught up with him that he said casually: "Two words, borrow money." ”
The third prince's heart moved, knowing that Xiao Jingxian's words did make sense. After all, even if Yue Qianqiu introduced him to the trade route, it would be impossible to spread it immediately for a while, and he was still a poor and empty prince. If he could, he would even be willing to borrow with the highest interest, but who would lend him money?
"If you're worried about not being able to borrow it, then you can sell yourself. Although you, the prince who has not been crowned, can't sell for a good price, as long as you are willing to sell yourself for a marriage, then the dowry should be enough for you to recruit a few people. ”
The third prince couldn't help but feel excited. He took a deep breath and asked himself again who he should marry, but he swallowed the words completely. If he even had to ask Xiao Jingxian about this, even if Xiao Jingxian really gave him the corresponding candidate, wouldn't it mean that even if he was not a puppet of Concubine Hui's family, he would become Xiao Jingxian's puppet?
Even though he only had vague outlines in his heart, he still tried to say as calmly as possible: "Thank you King Jin for your advice!" ”
"Don't thank me." Xiao Jingxian's eyes flashed, revealing a hint of a nonchalant smile, "I just hope that you can be stronger, and together with Little Twelve, you can fight with her eldest sister." Do you think that her eldest sister will be abandoned by your father if she is not the queen's own son by me? Don't underestimate your opponent, you have killed Yazhu now, and united with Xiao Twelve, when you step into the border of Beiyan, you are her mortal enemy. ”
The third prince only felt a chill in his back, and then he had the urge to burst into tears.
Xiao Jingxian, you obviously planned to defect from Dayan, why did you still provoke the eldest princess to do such superfluous things! Originally, the arrogant and domineering woman who did her own thing was difficult enough to get along with, but now she has become a madman!
Regarding the resentment of the three princes, Xiao Jingxian did not take it to heart at all. He swaggered out of the gate, and saw that Yue Qianqiu was surrounded by several guards, including Xu Hao, in addition to Li Tianhang and others from Wudesi, he dragged the lost third prince over with a smile, and sent it to everyone as if he was sending an object.
"The third prince said that he still has an appointment with someone, and now that I am finished returning to Zhao, I will bother you to take him to the appointment!"
