Chapter Twenty-Five: Alley Calculations

Li Nanyang's face froze, he took a breath of cool air, and was slightly surprised, he looked at this Murong Xun, as if he wanted to distinguish the authenticity.

South Shen and North Chen are talking about the Shen family stationed in southern Xinjiang and the Chen family in northern Subei. The Chen family in northern Subei, stationed in the most difficult and bitter cold place in the northern desert, guarding the nomads in the north, the Chen family has been loyal to guard the gate for Daxiang for several generations, and has donated the lives of countless good men. Speaking of the old marquis Chen, he is a real hero of the iron man, he is still the first soldier in the sixtieth year, leading the troops to charge, not only that, several sons under his knees have sacrificed their lives for Daxiang, and now there is only one son and one daughter left, the daughter is the concubine in the Zijin Palace, and the biological mother of the current prince, and the other son is the young Marquis Chen who is only sixteen years old. It is reported that Chen Yuzhi, the little marquis of Chen, was born frail and sickly, and his body was weak, and the old marquis was extremely doting on him, which can be called responsive.

The appearance of the young man in front of him was somewhat similar to the legendary little marquis, Li Nanyang asked, "I don't know what the little marquis is doing in Chang'an?" ”

Shen Xiaoyi pressed Li Nanyang's hand, he smiled slightly, raised his eyes to look at Murong Xun, there were still a few doubts in his eyes, "A few years ago, I had the honor to visit Subei, the old marquis and the soldiers ate and stayed together, and even the home was simple and abnormal, which was really admirable." I don't know if the willow tree in front of the military camp of the Subei Army is still there? ”

Murong Xun frowned and thought about it, shook his fan and said with a smile: "If I remember correctly, Yingkou's should be an old locust tree!" Although the old locust tree has experienced a hundred years of wind and rain, it is now more and more luxuriant! ”

Shen Xiaoyi smiled and said, "It's my mistake!" I remember when I was in southern Xinjiang, the old marquis wrote in a letter to my father that he was getting older, and his old injuries often flared up, I don't know if the old marquis's left leg is better now? ”

Murong Xun smiled indifferently and said, "Thank you Shen Gongzi for your concern, there is nothing wrong with my father's left leg, it was the right leg that was hit by an arrow during the battle with the Yehe clan, so every time it is stormy now, it is a terrible attack!" However, the situation has improved a little recently, thanks to General Shen for introducing Mr. Mo from Southern Xinjiang to his father, who used Gu to attract blood, and his father's rheumatism in his legs and feet has not occurred for a long time! ”

Shen Xiaoyi's eyes lit up, he glanced at Murong Xun, and asked, "I don't know what the little marquis is looking for the two of us?" ”

Murong Xun put away the fan, making a crisp sound in the air, her eyes turned slightly, raised her eyebrows and smiled: "There is a business, I don't know if the two of you are interested?" ”

On the bustling street, a soft sedan car walked steadily without hurrying or slow. Inside the sedan chair, Murong Xun supported his forehead with one hand, squinting slightly and thinking deeply.

Shen Xiaoyi is more difficult to deal with than she imagined, but fortunately, that Li Nanyang is an extremely easy person to deceive, and looking at the relationship between the two, Li Nanyang seems to obey Shen Xiaoyi in everything, if Shen Xiaoyi is transferred away from Li Nanyang's side, then Li Nanyang can't rub himself round and soft? After thinking about it, Murong Xun took out a jade pendant from his sleeve, the jade pendant was in excellent color, the whole body was transparent, with a faint luster, and it was carved with a rose pattern.

Murong Xun opened the curtain of the sedan chair, handed the jade pendant in his hand to Yan Yu, who was walking with the sedan chair, and whispered a few words to her. Yan Yu glanced at Murong Xun suspiciously, and still arranged things according to her instructions.

After walking some distance, the sedan chair suddenly shook violently, Murong Xun stabilized his body, and asked Yingge, "What happened?" ”

Yingge frowned and said, "Just a few people are on a rampage, as if they are running away!" ”

"Oh?" Murong Xun looked ahead, and sure enough, he saw a few people running forward in a hurry, not knocking over the stalls of the vendors on the street, it was indeed as if they were being chased.

Yingge said coldly: "Miss, it's not safe here, let's go back home first!" ”

Murong Xun nodded. Looking ahead, I vaguely felt that something was wrong, but I couldn't tell what was wrong.

The sedan chair shook slightly, Murong Xun opened his half-closed phoenix eyes, why did he suddenly speed up? At this time, I heard Yingge roaring, "Stop, a few people think they are going wrong, this is not the way back to the Prime Minister's Mansion!" ”

One person smiled and said, "The girl doesn't know, this road is a shortcut!" ”

Yingge looked around vigilantly, took a few steps forward, and said in a deep voice: "This road is sparsely populated, let's take the original road, if you feel troublesome, just give more rewards!" ”

The man said, "I'm afraid this is a bad girl!" After that, Murong Xun felt a violent shaking, she grabbed the handrail with one hand to stabilize her body, and opened the sedan curtain on the other hand, but saw that Yingge was entangled by several people and fell behind, Yingge wanted to move forward several times, but was forced to go back. As for himself, he was carried forward by several people.

Murong Xun's eyes lit up, and he asked in a deep voice, "Who are you?" Where are you taking me? ”

A sedan chair driver in front of him asked, "I'll know when I get to the young lady!" ”

Murong Xun was secretly taken aback, at such a fast speed, this person's breathing did not have a trace of disorder. Murong Xun sat up straight and calmed down, and there was a trace of curiosity in his heart about who instructed him.

After running for a while, the sedan chair stopped, but it did not land, Murong Xun gently picked up the corner of the curtain, only to see that at this moment they were in a remote alley, the walls on both sides of the alley were covered with moss, the ground was shallow water, the light and shadow on the water surface floated, and the clouds in the sky were reflected in it, which were cut into countless pieces.

A faint aroma approached the tip of his nose from far to near, Murong Xun's nose moved slightly, and suddenly he heard a burst of piano sounds, and the sound of the piano was lingering, like a dream. Listening carefully, Murong Xun couldn't help frowning, and couldn't tell where the sound of the piano came from.

One person said loudly: "Master, people are coming!" ”

The sound of the piano gradually stopped, and finally the sound of "Zheng" ended, and the aftersound was lingering, and there was a feeling of unfinished.

The sedan chair still had no intention of landing, Murong Xun lowered the curtain and said loudly: "I don't know who the hero is, since the little girl was brought here, why don't you come out and see it?" ”

"Huh!" A clear and warm laugh came, "Miss Murong is really bold!" Xiao Ke asked Miss to do this, but I just wanted to ask Miss for a favor, and I would never hurt Miss by half a point! ”

"Childe, but it doesn't matter, if it's within the scope of the little girl's ability, the little girl is willing to do her best!" Murong Xun said lightly.

"Xiao Ke would like to thank Miss in advance, but this favor is within Miss's ability. As for what it is, Miss will find out after a while! ”

After a period of silence, Murong Xun opened the sedan curtain with heavy eyes, but saw that the sedan chair drivers around him were missing at the moment, and there were a few doubts in his heart, what the hell is this person doing?

After getting off the sedan chair, Murong Xun's eyes flowed, taking in the surrounding scenery, there were several abandoned houses around the alley, I don't know where the person playing the piano was, but he secretly felt two cold eyes quietly watching him. There is only the sound of the wind in the silence around, but there are countless murderous intentions hidden in it.

Suddenly, a series of panicked footsteps came from behind him, and the ground of the bluestone slab echoed countless times. Murong Xun subconsciously glanced back, only to see several men running in her direction.

Running in the center is a tall man, isn't this man the captive who was fighting in the Li Zhilou just now?

Murong Xun slightly sensed what was about to happen, and saw a fierce light flashing in the eyes of a few men after seeing Murong Xun's figure. I heard a man shouting, "Catch that kid!" ”

Murong Xun took a few steps back slightly, only to see those men rushing in front of her like wolves, one of them grabbed her arm, that is, grabbed her neck, several people gathered together, looking ahead with their eyes like torches, and from the front, chased after a few men.

These men were all dressed in uniform black clothes, with long swords pinned to their waists, and their movements were very coordinated. And the man at the front, Murong Xun, recognized it as Zhao Hui beside King Qin.

After Zhao Hui saw that the hostage in the hands of those people was Murong Xun, he couldn't help frowning and said loudly: "Let the people go!" ”

The tall man snorted coldly, and when he observed Zhao Hui's face, he felt that he should have caught the right person, how could it be possible for him to let people go at this moment? He laughed loudly, "Prepare a few fast horses for us, or kill this kid!" As he spoke, his big hand pinched Murong Xun's neck.

Zhao Hui smiled lowly, "I don't know this person, you can kill if you want, but don't want to go out of Chang'an!" ”

The tall man's eyes darkened, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Don't force me!" ", said that the strength in his hand was a little stronger.

Murong Xun narrowed his eyes slightly, and his hands gradually tightened under the wide sleeves.

"Stop!" A coquettish shout came, and I saw a light blue figure flashing quickly, only to see Yingge landing on her toes steadily, staring angrily at the tall man holding Murong Xun's neck, and shouted: "If you dare to hurt my son-in-law, you will die without a place to be buried!" She looked at Zhao Hui again, frowned and said coldly: "I hope that this official master puts my son's life first, don't act impulsively!" ”

Zhao Hui was also in a dilemma at the moment, he naturally recognized Murong Xun, thinking that her sister Murong Shan would be the princess of Qin in the future, if she injured her sister at this moment, it would be difficult for the prince to explain, but if he let this person escape in his own hands today, the prince would not be able to deal with it......

At this time, a few melodious piano sounds floated in, intersecting with the stalemate below, indescribable leisure.

"Do you want to agree to our terms?" The tall man roared again, and with the continuous exertion of his hands, he could see that a circle of dark green marks appeared on Murong Xun's white neck.

Zhao Hui frowned and made it difficult to make a choice, and Yingge was also anxious on the side.

"Let them go!" A mellow voice came, gentle but with irrefutable intensity.

A few people looked sideways, only to see that at the end of the alley, Zhao Ling was dressed in a white brocade dress and approached quickly. His body was straight, he held a long sword in one hand and the other behind his back, and his steps were fast but steady.

He came suddenly, indescribably peerless. His eyes were cold, and his eyes like a cold moon looked at Murong Xun deeply a few times.

"Lord Wang!" Zhao Hui bent down and saluted, and at the same time breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

"If the prisoner of war runs away, he can be captured, but if he hurts Miss Murong, I will be to blame even if I die!" Zhao Ling smiled slightly, his deep eyes hunting cold light, "Everyone get out of the way and let them go!" ”
