Chapter 801: Hypocrisy
Xia Tuanzi thought very simply, as long as the fifth prince died, wouldn't his sister have to marry?
It won't be delayed for a lifetime.
As for the assassination of the prince of the dynasty is a serious crime to exterminate the nine clans, these things are not within the scope of Xia Tuanzi's consideration.
Anyway, he had to keep his sister safe.
When Xia Ningxing found out that Xia Tuanzi was missing, his heart instantly sank to the bottom.
His bed was still the same as she had cleaned up for him yesterday, and he must have left last night, and if it worked, then he should have come back a long time ago.
But now that it was dawn, he was still nowhere to be seen.
Apparently, he was caught!
He can't come back!
As soon as he thought of this, Xia Ningxing could no longer maintain his sanity and calmness, his fingers clenched the door frame tightly, and a big drop of cold sweat broke out from the corner of his forehead, almost daring to imagine what would happen to the dumplings.
What is the place of the Five Princes' Mansion, I think that the emperor saw that his son became crippled, for fear that he would be hurt again, so he sent heavy guards to guard, and it is said that there are six teams of guards in the courtyard who are constantly patrolling 24 hours a day.
All of them are extraordinary.
Although in the past two years, both of them have practiced martial arts to defend themselves.
But the force value of the group is not high, and even she can't beat her.
Even if she can't sneak into the Five Kings' Mansion once, there is no guarantee that she will go and return, let alone the triangular cat martial arts like Tuanzi.
He is clearly preparing to die with the five princes.
Thinking of this, Xia Ningxing instantly broke out in a cold sweat, this stupid child, didn't she tell him everything, she was free to solve the marriage matter, how could he be so stupid!
Xia Ningxing couldn't sit still, and was about to go to meet his fiancé in person for a while, when he unexpectedly "whoosh", a long arrow hit the table in the house.
The end of the arrow was submerged in the table, and a letter was still hanging.
Xia Ningxing's eyebrows jumped, and she didn't have time to read the letter, so she immediately flew out and wanted to stop the person who shot the arrow: "Who?" ”
However, when I looked around, I didn't see anyone shooting the arrow.
I think it's a master.
Xia Ningxing frowned, he didn't chase it, he couldn't catch up, there was nothing to chase.
What's more, the other party didn't come for her life, otherwise the arrow just now wouldn't have been on the table.
Xia Ningxing immediately returned to the house and checked the envelope that had been shot with the arrow feather.
After seeing the contents inside, Xia Ningxing was suddenly shocked.
You may not believe it when you say it, but he ......
He's in the wrong place!
He didn't go to the Five Princes' Mansion, but the Second Prince's Mansion!
Then he was caught red-handed by the people of the Second Prince's Mansion.
But the second prince has no grievances with them, and Tuanzi has no reason to go to him for trouble, thinking that he must be unfamiliar with the roads in the city and looking for the wrong place!
Xia Ningxing raised his forehead slightly, both helpless and happy.
I heard that this second prince seems to be quite a good person, and now that he has sent a letter to inform her that the group is in his hands, he will not be too embarrassed to come.
Or rather, the second prince wants to get something from her.
Otherwise, he could directly solve the group with one sword, and then destroy the corpse, and no one in Shangshu Mansion would know.
Or simply use the assassination of the group to ruthlessly refer to the Shangshu Mansion and cut off the wings of the great prince.
You must know that Xia Feng, the secretary of the Ministry of Works, is a faction of the great prince, and he is also the right-hand man of the other party, if it is cut off, it will be of great help to his seizure of the throne.
But he didn't do that, but just invited her to meet him and agreed to let the dumplings go.
Xia Ningxing would not be naïve to think that this second prince would be so kind, even if the outside world said that he was as gentle as jade, did not fight or grab, was obedient, and treated the people like a son.
When she went, Xia Ningxing didn't know what the other party was planning, but when she arrived at the agreed restaurant and private room, when she saw something on the table, she didn't understand anything.
It turned out to be for this!
It was a simple firearm she had made herself (similar to a firewood warehouse), and it was quite powerful.
Originally, she used it for the self-defense of the group.
But now it's clear that men are interested in this thing.
Xia Ningxing couldn't help but sneer in his heart, and a chill gradually crept up his back.
It is said that these two princes are not interested in the throne, never play with power, nor do they form gangs, they are only obsessed with raising flowers and grass, reading and ink, and once wrote a poem saying that being intoxicated with the countryside is the dream in his heart, and he had to stay in the imperial city for the sake of filial piety, which provoked the emperor's great joy.
Now it seems that it is really hypocritical!
If you really don't care about the status of imperial power, how can you be interested in such a thing as a firebolt? Or call her alone? Instead of reporting directly to the emperor? Summoned by the emperor?
You must know that once this thing is mass-produced, a firearm can easily take people's lives, so why worry about forcing the palace to fail at that time?
But as far as she is concerned, it doesn't matter who is interested in that imperial chair, she only cares about Xia Tuanzi alone.
That's all.
Therefore, Xia Ningxing quickly restrained her thoughts, and did not owe to say hello, but directly raised her face and stared at the man in the room who was facing away from her, and got straight to the point: "Lord Wang, we Mingren don't say dark words, I know what you want, as long as you let the group go safe and sound, and swear not to pursue this matter again, I will give you what you want." ”
Her tone was not half flattering or apprehensive, but a little arrogant, as if she had no fear.
Xia Ningxing naturally had nothing to fear, because she had what he dreamed of here!
You must know that in this dynasty where gunpowder was not invented, only she knew the production process and materials of firearms.
So the current situation is not that she is begging him to let him go, but that he is trying to take what he wants from her.
Therefore, she will not show weakness, lest the other party gain an inch.
After hearing this, the man standing with his hands in his hands couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly, and a trace of surprise flashed in his black eyes.
Apparently I didn't expect a little girl from the countryside to be so bold and intelligent.
He originally thought that the other party would cry bitterly, hugging his thighs and begging him to spare her brother, but he didn't expect her to strike first.
However, since she can make such a lethal weapon, she must not be an ordinary person.
The reason why Lu Tingli is so sure that this thing was made by her is because he ordered someone to investigate last night, and he knows that the two sisters and brothers have always been dependent on each other.
She didn't make this thing, and who could it be.
So this is also the reason why Xia Ningxing did not lie that this thing was not made by himself.
After Xia Ningxing heard the other party's sneer, he saw the man slowly turn around.
After seeing his face clearly, Xia Ningxing was slightly suffocated.
He was born very handsome, as bright as the moon in the sky.
The ink hair is tied up high, the appearance is picturesque, every place is just right, the skin is faintly shiny and flowing, and the sword eyebrows are in the sideburns, adding heroism.
