[Xue Rongqing: I did this today, you can't blame me, you forced it, I have no choice but to make this decision, after all, only the dead will not reveal secrets. 】

"No, that's you, so what should I do?" Xiran was still a little hesitant, looking at the gloomy and huge courtyard not far away, and the cool breeze blowing around, and the mottled shadows of the trees, which made her feel a bad premonition.

Xue Liyue looked at Shizoan with some amusement, he didn't think that Shizoan was so bold, otherwise why did he want to participate in the rescue operation so actively at the beginning.

He looked at Shizoan's tangled expression, his small movements didn't stop, and he couldn't help but joke: "Why are you afraid?" ”

"Who said I was scared! Go for it! Shizome was a little anxious by this, and immediately agreed to go in together.

I saw the two of them come to a remote wall, ready to quietly climb over the wall and enter. After the two of them entered safely, they slowly looked for the traces of Qian Lao, don't look at the lack of guards outside the courtyard, there are still many guards here, patrolling in shifts, and not falling anywhere. The two of them had no choice but to move quietly in the courtyard in hiding.

I don't know when the dark cloud gradually dispersed, and the silver moonlight covered the earth again, and the stars tonight were exceptionally bright, falling into the night sky and flashing and twinkling.

The two black figures gradually moved in the courtyard, looking for the traces of Qian Lao, and their shadows gradually pulled out long traces on the ground.

In order to quickly find the location of Qian Lao, the two decided to go their separate ways. Xiran moved quietly in the backyard, but found that Xue Rongqing had raised several colorful women in the other courtyard.

She shook her head, and the image of Xue Rongqing in her heart gradually collapsed, but when she thought of him looking so upright and gentlemanly, looking amiable, she felt a chill. This kind of talent is the most terrifying.

On the other side, Xue Liyue groped into the hall and was about to go in to have a look, when she heard Xue Rongqing's voice, "How is he?" ”

"Back to His Royal Highness, he still doesn't eat or drink." There was an elderly housekeeper beside Xue Rongqing, who lowered his voice and replied respectfully to Xue Rongqing's words.

"It's really too good for him, it's time for him to know what the end is for disobeying me."

Xue Rongqing also guessed that this was the answer, and the hand behind his back slowly clenched his fists, and his expression gradually became hideous. He remembered the report of the guard's return that day, and he began to be a little frightened.

The Prince's Mansion that day

When Xue Rongqing listened to the report of the head of the guard, his face became worse and worse, he didn't need to guess at all to know that Xue Liyue must have met with the craftsman Qian Lao, this was really an oversight on his part.

He originally respected these old men with a lot of skills, so he didn't completely restrict Qian Lao's freedom. But he didn't expect that Xue Liyue still had some ability, and she could find out Qian Lao, which really made him a little overwhelmed.

Xue Rongqing motioned for the guards to step back, and did not hold him accountable, after all, the other party was also a prince and it was not easy to deal with it.

He paced back and forth in the hall, his head thinking quickly, how much did that Qian Lao know about himself, and how much he told Xue Liyue. He couldn't figure out how he could think about these questions, he panicked for no reason, how many years has passed, does he really have no place to maneuver?

Xue Rongqing was really unwilling, he suddenly made up a big decision, he decided to make the last struggle, gamble, his eyes were full of murderous intent. He knew that Xue Liyue would definitely come to save Qian Lao, save those craftsmen and family members, and this was also his last chance for Xue Rongqing.

"Father, you... What's wrong with you? ”

Xue Man came to the hall, although he couldn't see it, he could feel a thick killing intent in the air, plus he listened to his father's hurried footsteps, a little worried, and didn't know what was going on.

"Hey, why did you come here, why don't you go back and rest."

Xue Rongqing's thoughts were interrupted by Xue Man's words, he quickly restrained his killing intent, adjusted his emotions, put a smile on his face, and hurriedly walked over to help Xue Man sit down.

"Father, the child is fine, there is no need to rest."

Xue Rongqing looked at his only son, although his eyes were open, but he was gloomy, hateful, and very distressed.

He is such a son, he is usually spoiled and used to it, but now he is suffering like this, and he really wants to kill the little girl in Shizoan to relieve his hatred.

Thinking of Shizoe, Xue Rongqing suddenly asked, "By the way, let you apologize and treat your eyes, what do you think?" ”

"Father, do you believe that the demon girl can really be cured?" Xue Man did not answer positively, but asked Xue Rongqing instead.

Since he lost his eyes, he has also thought a lot and changed a lot. But his temperament still won't change, let him apologize, unless the other party can really help him recover his eyesight, otherwise he would rather lose his eyes and have the other party broken into pieces.

Xue Rongqing was also a little hesitant when he heard this, his slightly white sideburns were shaking slightly, but he still held the hope that he could cure his son's eyes, and then said: "Agree, I have to give it a try, if she goes back on her word or can't cure you, my father will definitely make her life worse than death!" ”

Before Xue Man could continue to argue, Xue Rongqing continued: "Go and contact him, let them transfer those craftsmen and relatives, and put ... ”

Xue Rongqing hesitated a little and finally made up his mind to continue: "Take Qian Lao's relatives to the other courtyard, and I will go to see Qian Lao now." ”

"Yes, Father." Xue Man was a little puzzled why his father suddenly paid attention to these craftsmen, but he still didn't ask too much, he could feel that his father was a little tired, so he also retreated after answering the interest.

Xue Rongqing's face turned hideous again at this time, and he gritted his teeth and muttered: "Xue Liyue, since you are so aggressive, then I have no choice but to kill you!" ”

Xue Liyue looked at the imperial uncle with murderous intent on his face, and he also knew that Qian Lao's situation was very dangerous. Since Xue Rongqing is here, it means that Qian Lao should be nearby, and it seems that he is not worried about his life yet. He thought about it and turned to leave, but he didn't expect to touch the curtain next to him, causing the curtain to shake slightly.

Just such a slight shaking immediately aroused the vigilance of Xue Rongqing, an old fox.

His senses were now very sensitive, and he shouted, "Who! Then he motioned for the housekeeper to move over there to check, and he stared closely at the position where Xue Liyue was standing just now.

Xue Liyue didn't dare to come out at this time, and she didn't dare to move for half a minute. When the butler crept up to the curtain, he pulled it up sharply, only to find it empty.

He was a little puzzled, wondering if His Royal Highness the Prince's nerves were too sensitive and hallucinating? He turned around and shook his head at Xue Rongqing, signaling that no one was there, and then lowered the curtain and walked back.

"Impossible, I feel wrong?" Xue Rongqing muttered to himself, his eyes rolled in his sockets, and a plan came to his mind.

The gray beard on Xue Rongqing's face shook slightly, his complexion did not change, and he cleared his throat and said, "Then maybe I'm too suspicious, let's go see Qian Lao." ”

With that, he turned and left, followed by the butler.

After Xue Liyue saw that everyone was gone, she finally breathed a sigh of relief. In a flash, he jumped down from a hidden beam he had just discovered, clapped his hands, calmed down, and continued to quietly follow Xue Rongqing.

On the other side, Xi Ran really touched Qian Lao's room in advance, and she sneaked in, which surprised Qian Lao.

"You, who are you?" Qian Lao was startled by the uninvited guest who suddenly jumped in from the window, and asked in horror.

"Shhhh You're the old man, aren't you? Don't be afraid that I'm the one of the Five Princes, come to save you. ”

Xi Ran had just discovered that there were heavy guards around this room, and she guessed that it must be Qian Lao inside, and she finally found an opportunity to sneak in through the window. Seeing Qian Lao's vigilance, she hurriedly and quietly trotted over to explain.

"No, it's too dangerous, you guys hurry up! Didn't I say at the time, don't come to save me! ”

Qian Lao looked at the little girl in front of him and was a little anxious, didn't he know that Xue Rongqing's style? He didn't want such a young girl to wade into this troubled water.
