The sky was getting gloomy, two thunders fell in the sky, and scattered raindrops fell on the green brick road, and now it was indeed about to enter the rainy season.

Xiang Yeqi sat back in the carriage, and the rest of the people outside the carriage also held up the paper umbrellas they had prepared in advance to prepare for the sudden heavy rain in the rainy season.

Nan Chen's face was calm, as if it was cold with the sound of rain, and he refused to hold an umbrella, his eyes wandered, looking at the surrounding mountain roads, except for the wood and stone is mud and sand.

"Nan Chen, what are you looking at?" Xiang Yequan was depressed because he forgot to bring a paper umbrella, so he simply handed over the umbrella prepared in the carriage, "There are palace guards in this trip, there will be no problem." ”

Nan Chen distracted and brushed away the umbrella that he had handed to Yeqi, "Niangniang doesn't have to care about her subordinates, her subordinates have prepared umbrellas, and then hold them up in a while, you first hide from the rain in the carriage." ”

Indeed, taking back the umbrella to Yeqi is indeed too "overstepping", and he even tried in vain to guess Nan Chen's thoughts! The two of them are not beings who can read each other's thoughts at all!

It was very strange that Nan Chen refused to hold an umbrella alone, but Xiang Yeqi watched Yingyan put away the umbrella as well.

Although the rain is indeed very small, how can these two people not give this rain at all!

"Yingyan, is the rain too light, and you don't care about umbrellas anymore?" Xiang Yeqi took the somewhat cumbersome umbrella from Yingyan's hand, and also received it in the box in the carriage.

"Mother's mistake."

She is also like Nan Chen, almost all her thoughts are on every move around her.

Approaching a fork in the mountain, Ying Yancai explained to Yeqi: "The southern guards are listening to the sound to identify the position, although the sound of the rain is small, but if you hold up the umbrella, when the rain hits the umbrella, you can't hear other sounds." ”

Ying Yan spoke very carefully, as if she was afraid of overshadowing another voice.

The two of them were extremely cautious, and even Xiang Yeqi was a little nervous: "Is someone following us?" Did you hear anything? If there's anything like that, I'll pass it on. ”

Nan Chen shook his head gloomily, "It's good for someone to follow, but those people are too cautious, and even their subordinates haven't noticed where those people are hiding, so they can only vaguely identify a direction, it seems that tonight is destined to be unstable." ”

"The subordinates and the southern guards have the same opinion."

Ying Yan looked at the sky worriedly, the rain was getting fiercer, and she became more and more worried: "It's okay if the rain stops, but I'm afraid that if the rain continues to be stronger, it will not only cover their whereabouts, but also allow them to take up a lot of convenience." The subordinates are thinking, Niangniang might as well let the carriages and horses of Xiangfu hurry up, let's rush to the wing of Xiangguo Temple as soon as possible, get rid of them, and maybe move back some opportunities. ”

"That's all there is to it." Descend to the night.

In order to get rid of the people who were secretly following him, he accelerated the pace of the family carriage and horses, stepped on the muddy and slippery mountain road step by step, and finally rushed to the hospitality room of Xiangguo Temple before the rain was uncontrollable.

Xiang Ye's front foot crossed the threshold, and the back foot heard the sound of rain like the waterfall falling, and it was the weeping light rain of the Zhuzhu Fairy.

Yingyan lowered his eyes to sort out his luggage for Xiang Yeqi, and roughly made the mattress: "Don't be afraid, Niangniang, there are subordinates here, since he can be detected by his subordinates and the southern guards, it means that his ability is not very good, but he is just taking advantage of the heavy rain to cover up for himself, if there is really any big move, naturally he can't hide it." The southern guards are already deploying men to guard everywhere, and before the rain stops, this person will definitely be arrested. ”

There really is no other way.

It's just that Xiang Yeqi is just a little curious, who will harm himself in such a storm, and now, there is really such a person in Beijing?

The only one who has some festivals with himself is Jia Xing, but Jia Xing fell and injured his leg, and he was the only one, not to mention entering the mountain, how to get out of the house became a problem.

Seeing Xiang Ye's expression, Ying Yanwu inevitably remembered in her heart: "What is Niangniang worried about?" ”

"I'm just thinking about who will be following behind, but I really haven't thought of any qualified candidates, Jia Xing is it is a problem to follow up the mountain on weekdays, not to mention that he has injured his leg now, I'm afraid he can only honestly recuperate in Xiangfu. On the side of the mausoleum of the county lord of the Chang Dynasty, what has been the recent movement? ”

If it was Gu Yanchao, maybe he could really sneak up the mountain without everyone noticing.

Ying Yan shook his head and denied: "At the earliest, that Gu Yanchao still wanted to find a short-term view, but recently, he ...... The other guards at the mausoleum in Changchao County said that Gu Yanchao has been quite stable recently, although he is often tortured and crying, but at least he has not done anything, so he has completely broken off the idea of self-destruction. ”

After arranging the mattress, Yingyan laid a few traps in front of the bed, which were led by a silk thread by the window, and after pulling, the trapped beast net would fall.

In order to reduce the mistakes, Yingyan patiently told Xiang Yeqi: "Niangniang, my subordinates will go to join the southern guards in the next moment, this is a trap left by your subordinates for you, which is enough for you to defend yourself." After pulling the silver wire, the trapped beast net will fall, and a bell will be transmitted to the subordinates. If someone breaks in, you should be able to deal with it, and when you get rid of the people who are in ambush in the shadows, your subordinates will rush back. ”

The silver thread in front of her is like a ball of yarn to a cat to the night, but fortunately, she has excellent self-control, so she didn't accidentally trap Yingyan under the trapped beast net.

"I know, I'll use this, don't worry. However, the people of Xiang Mansion don't know what happened tonight, so you should deal with it carefully, don't disturb the Xiang family and implicate them. Remind Nightshade.

"My subordinates understand." 163TXT

Yingyan turned around and left, leaving Xiang Yeqi alone to rest in the room.

The sound of rain is vast, and the mountains and forests at night are foggy, and the road ahead is not clear on rainy days, and it is easy to stumble people's footsteps when there is fog at this time.

The more lonely it is, the more unsettling it is.

As long as you can still hear the conversation of some people in the temple, Xiang Yeqi will not be so worried about Yingyan and Nan Chen and others, and there is silence all around, as if there is only her heartbeat for a hundred miles.

Sleepiness struck, Xiang Yeqi sighed, and didn't dare to go to bed early, so he had to wash his face with the cold water, and just about to put down the face cloth, he was attracted by the strange phase around him......

So suspicious - is it white fog?

Mountain rain is often accompanied by fog, and if it does fall heavily it is not surprising, but you have to close the doors and windows.

I didn't expect this fog to be so big, and I raised my hand to Yeqi to lock the door, but even my wrist was hazy in the mist, as if I was in the land of immortals.

Xiang Yeqi sighed, and once again worried about Yingyan and Nan Chen and the others, so that they couldn't see how to lock the door lock for a long time.

It's miserable or miserable, and the fog around him is almost unclear.

A frightened face suddenly appeared outside the door, and she was so frightened that she stepped back towards the night, and the copper lock was tightly held in her hand, in case she needed to "smash her head" from time to time.

Hey, this man seems to be ......

Is it Xiang Jingming?

If it weren't for Xiang Jingming's same look as himself, Xiang Yeyan almost suspected that Xiang Jingming was the mastermind behind the scenes.

Xiang Yeqi suddenly breathed a sigh of relief: "What's wrong?" ”

Xiang Jingming's mouth was covered with a handkerchief that had been wet with water, and his voice was a little blurred: "Jingming doesn't know what happened, but, there is something wrong with this fog!" ”

For a moment, Xiang Yeqi almost thought that Xiang Jingming in front of him was a hallucination born by himself when he was in a state of confusion.

The truth is unbelievable, there is indeed something wrong with this fog!

Xiang Yeqi picked up the handkerchief he used to wipe his face, and also learned to cover his mouth and nose in the same way as Xiang Jingming, so he suddenly felt awake for three minutes, and his vision was no longer blurry.

Sure enough, the fog was manipulated.

Or is it a special use of incense powder, incense, spices are mixed in the fog and released, the mountain rain is foggy, how can you distinguish the two kinds of smoke with the same shape? Zen incense is burned all day long in the temple, which can cover many inconspicuous smells, which is really a "good opportunity" to do something murderous and arson......

It was Xiang Jingming who found out about this, which made Xiang Yeqi's impression of Xiang Jingming and his person change, and asked, "Where does Cousin Jingming come from?" When did you notice the problem with the smoke? What happened to everyone else but you? ”

Xiang Yeyan pondered that since Xiang Jingming came from another side room, he should know what was going on outside the house, so it was much safer to ask Xiang Jingxing than to go out to investigate.

"The courtiers came from their own chambers."

Xiang Jingming frowned bitterly, and his voice was tired: "At that time, the courtier was studying the rubbing of the ink treasure in the temple in the wing room, and at first he saw his mother fainting, and he didn't care too much. So come to the queen's sister's guest room to see, fortunately you're okay. ”

He was startled, as if he remembered something: "That's right! When the courtiers came, they saw several monks who were acting strangely, and it seemed, it seemed, it seemed...... Who is pretending, they also have a knife hidden on their waists, it is too dangerous! I don't know how long it will take for this strange fog to clear, what are your plans? ”

Even if Xiang Jingming is sharp-minded, it is inevitable that there will be places where he is sluggish due to his shallow experience, listening to the noisy footsteps not far from the door, Xiang Yeqi has a headache.

I'm afraid that if Xiang Jingming doesn't say anything about it, she can also witness these strange things with her own eyes.

Xiang Yeqi flicked the table, deliberately knocked over the tea cup on the table, and made some noises to signal to Xiang Jingming, saying, "You run away, I have a way to deal with these people." ”

Xiang Jingming was stunned, and when his eyes drifted, he also saw a sneaky black shadow outside the door!

Just when Xiang Yeyan thought that Xiang Jingming could escape first, Xiang Jingming shook his head with will: "No, the courtiers can't go!" When the courtiers came, they saw that the guards outside the queen's sister's room had disappeared, and they thought that they were deliberately transferred, if the courtiers abandoned you again, it was really not a gentleman's doing! ”

Xiang Yeqi was also anxious with him: "What kind of gentleman is not a gentleman, saving your life is the most important thing, you have time to escape now, there is no time to waste!" ”
