Chapter 44: Jiucang Mountain

Rong Zhao let Yu Donghai clear the road is to keep the back hand. He was afraid that after finding an opportunity to rescue Xia Wanhua, Yufu would take advantage of the chaos to escape. Now on the road, in addition to the iron guard or the iron guard, Yufu's traces are exposed.

The fox's eyes narrowed slightly, the corners of his mouth hooked, and he shook his head at Yu Donghai, and Yu Donghai knew how to lead people to catch up quickly.

"Are you alright?" Rong Zhao put away his sword and helped Xia Wanhua up, lifted her chin, and looked at the wound. "Fortunately, it's not heavy."

"Don't worry about this for now, hurry back home!" Xia Wanhua shook her arm and stepped on the horse. His gaze fell on the place where Yufu had landed before leaving.

Are you all watching the show? Watching a play is not so easy to watch, be careful not to cry!

Rong Zhao then turned over and got on the horse, next to Xia Wanhua, and snatched the reins from Xia Wanhua's hand. "I'll come. Drive! ”

Xia Wanhua was very uncomfortable in Rong Zhao's arms, allowing Rong Zhao to hug her waist.

When she arrived at the door of Xia's mansion, Xia Wanhua got off the horse and immediately ran all the way to her study.

I'm afraid no one has ever seen this kind of embarrassment.

"Block off the entire yard, no one is allowed to enter or leave!"

Xia Wanhua closed the door of the study as she instructed.

Stepping into the study, Xia Wanhua let out a sigh of relief, took out a long sword from the wall, took it out and carried it in his hand, and slowly walked to the library on the second floor.

Rong Zhao followed her closely, not missing a step.

Walking to a bookcase in the deepest part, Xia Wanhua stopped, handed the long sword to Rong Zhao, and she went to push a beam next to the bookcase. The beams and pillars slowly retreated into the wall, and Xia Wanhua forcefully moved the wall, revealing a closed stone room.

The stone room is not large and cannot accommodate a few people. But there is a cabinet in the middle of the stone chamber.

Xia Wanhua opened the cabinet, checked it, and then retreated and resealed the stone room.

"It's okay." Xia Wanhua stood in front of Rong Zhao. "Thank you so much for today."

The slender fingers rubbed the fox's eyes, and finally his voice was low: "Wanhua, you shouldn't even hide it from me." ”

Xia Wanhua's face was sneering. "I won't tell you because the jade seal of the country is too important."

Rong Zhao shook his head as he came to the soft floor where Xia Wanhua often reads books and sat down, very casually.

Xia Wanhua looked out the window and rolled her eyes.

"Listen!"

Rong Zhao immediately straightened his body and listened to his ears.

The sword at his waist was drawn.

The slender jade hand pressed the big hand that was only strong, shook his head at him, and pulled him up to a bookcase against the wall, Xia Wanhua opened a secret door again, revealing a staircase, and dragged Rong Zhao down the stairs.

Rong Zhao estimated that the stairs were leading to the underground of the study.

When he went out of the door again, Rong Zhao saw the courtyard where he lived.

"Late bloom."

Rong Zhao didn't know how to describe his current mood.

She believed in him.

"We'll wait for the news." Xia Wanhua pulled Rong Zhao into the house.

A pair of fox eyes rolled up to the sky.

Tsundere is dead!

Xia Wanhua walked behind Rong Zhao, pushed his broad back with both hands, and coaxed him into the house.

After the two of them sat down, Xia Wanhua talked about today's game.

"I didn't mean to hide it from you. You're so smart, how can I hide it from you. ”

"And who do you want to hide?" Such a clumsy game, even a fool can see it!

"The Xiao family."

Bright dark eyes blinked. You know what it means.

"Is the Xiao family so stupid?"

"It's you who think too highly of the Xiao family." Xia Wanhua pursed her lower lips and immediately poured a glass of water and took a sip. "The Xiao family was picked up by Xiao Tanfeng. Maybe it's too high, and they don't know what the sky is high and thick. ”

"And then?" Rong Zhao held his cheeks and looked at the delicate face intently. Why does he like it so much! It's not a national fragrance, but it's pleasing to the eye.

"Xiao Tanfeng has some means, but she relies too much on the Xiao family, she has not cultivated her own power, and she can't do anything without the Xiao family. In the end, it could only be controlled by the Xiao family. The Xiao family has no background, and it is naturally a little floating to be included in the circle of imperial relatives and relatives all of a sudden. The Xiao family wants to replace him, but does he have that strength? In the end, it became a knife in someone else's hand. Now that the Xiao family is in decline and fleeing in all directions, they naturally want to find a chance to turn around. I'm just giving them opportunities right now. ”

The long fingers nodded at Xia Wanhua, and there was a wicked smile on the corner of his mouth.

Xia Wanhua smiled but did not speak. Such a simple truth, most people understand. But the Xiao family didn't understand. But what she has to do is not just to bring out the Xiao family, but Jiucang Mountain!

Rong Zhao stood up, walked outside the door, and waved at Xia Wanhua. "It seems like the voice is gone. Let's take a look. ”

There were several people lying outside the study. Xia Wanhua took the things handed over by Chen Xiao, all of which carried the logo of the Xiao family.

The black phoenix eyes narrowed dangerously.

This kind of look is something Rong Zhao has never seen.

"They're the only ones?"

"Hui Gongzi, these six people have come, and they have all been killed."

Xia Wanhua nodded after listening. "In the future, the number of guards in the house will be doubled."

If you want to grab something, you must be mentally prepared to die.

Xia Wanhua didn't want to be a virgin. This is a struggle for power, not a parental shortcoming, and death is inevitable.

When they entered the study, there was no one else, and the two sat down. Rong Zhao continued the topic just now.

"Now that the Xiao family has done it and the people are dead, what are you going to do?"

What to do?

Xia Wanhua's face was dark. After a long time, she spoke: "Next, it depends on Jiucang Mountain's ability." ”

"That Jiucang Mountain in Yufu's mouth today?"

"Yes, Yufu is a person from Jiucang Mountain. Her grandfather was one of the elders of Great Xia, Yu Tianqi. Yufu was sent to Jiucang Mountain when she was more than four years old. ”

"What exactly is Jiucang Mountain?" Rong Zhao felt that the focus today was not on summoning the king's order, but on this Jiucang Mountain.

"Jiucang Mountain?" Xia Wanhua suddenly sat up straight. "It was a place of faith. Great Xia established Jiucang Mountain from the founding of the country. It should be said that Jiucang Mountain was established by three major families. The Great Xia royal family, the Su Fei Sun family, and the Broken Yuan Yu family. Su Fei's grandson's family is my grandfather's grandson's lineage, and the broken hill is the same as the Tianqi family. The three major families selected suitable young people from their own clansmen and sent them to study in Jiucang Mountain. In the future, he will be the backbone of the family, responsible for guarding the three major families. ”

"So far?" It was the first time Rong Zhao had heard that such an organization existed in Great Xia.

Sure enough, he used to be too lonely and unheard.

"The responsibility remains. It's just that after hundreds of years, Jiucang Mountain has also changed. The people at the helm are no longer from the three major families, but their duty is still to protect the three major families. So Yufu said that their lives were someone else's shield. Xia Wanhua's eyes were a little moist as she spoke, her eyes blinked a few times, and her eyeballs went to the other side, trying to avoid Rong Zhao's searching gaze.
