Chapter 103: The Prince Asks for Marriage
According to Jiang Yushui's instructions, after many days, she finally replied to Xia Hao's message.
The note said that the prince has been pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger for so many years, but in fact, he has already secretly joined forces with Prince Ji, and now Zhou Yang has fallen into the hands of the prince, and Ye Kui's disappearance was also done by Prince Ji's subordinates, and everything Jiang Yushui did was instructed by the prince and Prince Ji.
When he received the news, he was still suspicious when he saw the front, but when he saw the last sentence, Xia Haodi intuitively felt that Yulian had been rebelled.
Jiang Yushui's eyes that seemed to be smiling but not smiling came to mind.
Will she willingly become a sword in someone else's hands?
He didn't believe it!
Xia Hao sneered, and was about to put the note in his hand into the candle flame, when the subordinate who was in charge of receiving the news outside walked in with an envelope.
He stopped his movements and asked in a deep voice, "Whose news?" ”
The subordinate respectfully handed it over and replied: "Back to the seventh master, it's Miss Ye Kui." ”
Xia Miao was stunned for a moment, opened the envelope, and there was Ye Kui's handwriting on it, and even the code was exactly right.
Not many people know about this special code, Xia Hao does not doubt him, and when he browsed the content of the letter, he read it quickly, and the short lines were quickly read.
After reading it, Xia Hao frowned slightly, and looked at it carefully from beginning to end.
No problem.
Although the handwriting is a little messy, it is indeed Ye Kui's handwriting, and there is no problem with the code, but ......
Xia Hao put the note sent by Yulian and the letter together, and read it several times.
But he had just come to the conclusion that Yulian was rebelled by Jiang Qiushui, and Ye Kui, who had been missing for many days, sent a letter, which was inevitable......
It's a bit of a coincidence.
Yulian may be rebelled, but Xia Hao has no doubts about Ye Kui's sincerity.
Ye Kui's letter stated that she had been hunted down by the men sent by Prince Ji on the night of September 15, and that she was now evading their pursuit, and finally found an opportunity to send him a message, telling him that she could not show up for the time being.
Since he was being hunted down, it was not surprising that the handwriting was a little messy.
It seems that she wrote in a hurry, and she did not write in great detail, did not write about why Prince Ji suddenly pursued and killed her, nor did she write about where she was now and what the situation was.
It's just that in this way, it does match Yulian's rhetoric.
Xia Hao was thoughtful, and suddenly recalled that after the night of September 15, when he went out early in the morning, he saw Prince Ji's smug smile.
However, at that time, he was anxious to know what happened last night and caused the miss, so he didn't think much about it.
The palms of his hands tightened, the two pieces of paper were pinched into a ball, and Xia Hao's eyes were deep.
The praying mantis catches the cicada, and he has understood the truth of the yellow finch since he was a child, and he has always thought that he is a hunter lurking behind the yellow finch, and now it seems that he ......
Thinking of the various abnormalities of the prince in recent days, as well as Zhou Yang, whose life and death were uncertain in his hands, a trace of solemnity flashed in Xia Hao's eyes.
"Seventh Master!"
Immersed in his thoughts and interrupted, Xia Hao was a little displeased, frowned at the person who came, and said in a deep voice: "What's wrong?" ”
A trace of pain flashed in the eyes of the person who reported the report, and he said slowly: "The prince has done it." ”
My heart sank slightly, and I only heard the man say again: "Mr. Zhou is dead." ”
Suffocated in breath, the moment he heard the news of Zhou Yang's death, Xia Hao's mind was dazed for a moment, and his eyes were dark.
He thought that he knew Xia Yu, Xia Yu seemed to be arrogant and conceited, and he would not allow betrayal, but in fact, he was a person who missed the old love very much in his bones, so when he heard that Zhou Yang was imprisoned by him, he did not rush to the rescue for a while, and even guessed whether Xia Yu would let him go......
However, the crown prince killed Zhou Yang so quickly and decisively this time, which he did not expect.
Xia Hao, who prides himself on being a chess player, can grasp everything in the palm of his hand, and for the first time in his life, he has experienced the taste of panic.
It seems that some people and things are out of his control when he doesn't know it.
However, in front of his subordinates, he must not show cowardice.
Xia Hao took a deep breath and asked in a deep voice, "Have you ever seen Mr. Zhou's corpse?" ”
When he said this, he still had some kind of secret expectation in his heart, hoping that all this was a game for the prince to show outsiders.
But the answer of his men shattered his last hope.
"I saw it, the prince and he directly ...... Mr. Zhou's corpse Lost in the crematorium. "I didn't even prepare a coffin.
Xia Hao closed his eyes, "You go down first." ”
The subordinate glanced up at him, as if he still had something to say, and when he saw this, he paused and retreated.
He was the only one left in the empty hall.
Xia Hao's back was very straight, and under the wide sleeves of his robe, his hands were trembling slightly, as if he was in the middle of the ice and snow, and he only felt the cold to the bone.
Prince......
has been pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, but he has never noticed it?
Zhou Yang is the most trusted person and the most strategic person among the many staff, so he is relieved to send him to the prince's side.
He didn't notice that the prince was hiding, didn't even Zhou Yang, who was always by his side, notice it?
The imperial uncle has always been on his father's side, and he has never shown interest in the throne for so many years, when did he unite with the crown prince?
The seventeen-year-old boy suddenly lost his right arm and was taken by surprise, as if he was in an invisible net, which made him fall deeper and deeper, but there was no way to escape.
Xia Hao sat in place for a long time, and it wasn't until dusk, when He Xi came to him, that he finally came back to his senses.
He Xi frowned, very puzzled by his frightened appearance, and asked, "What's wrong with you?" ”
He subconsciously shook his head, and after a while, he suddenly remembered that his own sister had nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, and this time she came to him, she should have something to say.
It's just that his mind is a mess now, and there are a lot of things mixed together, he can't figure it out, he just feels physically and mentally exhausted, and he doesn't think that He Xi will say anything meaningful, he rubbed his eyebrows, and asked impatiently: "What are you doing here?" ”
The impatience in his tone called Hexi felt it, and the little princess's temper suddenly came up, and she raised her voice: "What kind of tone are you?" I'm not welcome?! ”
Xia Hao felt a headache even more, took a deep breath, stabilized his emotions, tried his best to calm down, and said, "No, I'm just a little tired." ”
The low tone made Hexi feel more comfortable, she raised her chin and snorted, and then said, "When I went to find my father today, I saw the crown prince. ”
Xia Hao's eyebrows skipped and he raised his head.
"I didn't think something was right at the time, so I didn't go in, I hid behind the door and listened, do you know what the prince is doing with his father?"
He Xi sold Guanzi, and his eyes were half happy and half unwilling.
"Do what?" Xia Hao asked quietly.
"He begged his father to give him a marriage," He Xi said, "and he wants to marry Jiang Qiushui as the crown princess!" ”
Boom ——。
Xia Hao's heart set off a stormy wave, and a heavy feeling of suffocation hit
