When the two returned to Shangguan Zixuan's courtyard, they saw Shangguan Zisang sitting alone at the stone table under the begonia tree, his back lonely.

Murong Xun glanced at Shangguan Zixuan's expression, only to see that he frowned, and his face was a little unbearable, but he didn't step forward.

Murong Xun shook his head, and was about to ask Shangguan Zisang what happened, but he heard his clear voice sound, "You're back!" ”

"Yes!" Murong Xun replied, and said, "Why are you sitting here alone?" She took a few steps forward and walked around to Shangguan Zisang's side, her eyes suddenly widened, and she exclaimed, "Xiao Sang, what happened?" ”

I saw Shangguan Zisang sitting on the stone bench, holding a polished and smooth bronze mirror in his hand, raising his head, looking at Murong Xun, and said with a sad face: "Girl, am I disfigured?" ”

Shangguan Zisang in front of him had a blue nose and swollen face, his former fair cheeks were high and swollen, and his delicate eyebrows and eyes were also blue, vaguely unrecognizable.

Murong Xun frowned, and said suspiciously: "With your light skills, who can hurt you like this?" ”

Shangguan Zisang slapped the bronze mirror in his hand on the stone table, suddenly got up, and said angrily: "King Qin, a despicable villain, deliberately put He Shou Wu in a conspicuous place, and when I got He Shou Wu and took it lightly, I found that a fishing net fell from the sky......

Shangguan Zixuan stopped, took a breath and said, "Damn, they just took He Shouwu back, but they didn't expect to beat me up, and they were so vicious!" ”

Murong Xun already knew a little bit in his heart, and he didn't feel that the corners of his mouth were picky, I was afraid that it was because something happened to Zhao Ling's subordinates, and the rest of the people were angry at Xiao Sang!

"Don't you want your brother to show you?" Murong Xun said.

Shangguan Zisang turned his head with tears in his eyes and looked at Shangguan Zixuan pitifully, his deformed mouth tried to squeeze out a smile, "Brother, it doesn't hurt at all!" ”

Shangguan Zixuan sneered: "That's the best!" He took a few steps towards the house and stopped again, "Why don't you come and rub the medicine yet!" ”

Shangguan Zisang raised his eyebrows at Murong Xun, which touched his facial muscles, trembling in pain.

Night. Inky black.

The stars dimmed. A few dark clouds obscured the bright moon, and a few faint rays of pitiful light appeared from time to time.

In the prison, there are many candles and shadows, a few cold winds blowing, swaying, and the light and dark light appear very uneven.

Behind the thick iron pillar, a tall figure was curled up in the corner, and under the flickering candlelight, I saw his body tense, his arms trembling slightly, and his eyes full of horror. The woman he saw during the day today must have been the little girl who fell into the cliff eight years ago, was she a human or a ghost? Did you come to seek revenge on yourself? She has been incognito for eight years, and even that woman can't find herself, how can she know that she is in prison?

Thinking of the indifferent eyes of the woman looking at him as if she were looking at a cold corpse in the daytime, he could not help but tremble, and his full beard trembled with it.

Suddenly, the iron locks of the cell made a clattering sound, and he raised his head in horror, and when he could make out the faces of the people in the dim light, his body suddenly relaxed, "It's you!" ”

"As if you knew I was coming!" The visitor chuckled, dressed as a jailer, hung the oil lamp in his hand on the wall beside him, took out the key from his waist, and opened the cell door, carrying a basket in his hand.

The jailer entered the cell, opened the basket, and suddenly the smell of rice hit his nose.

The bearded man looked up, and a face with a long scar twitched, "What do you mean?" ”

The jailer unhurriedly took out the food in the basket and said with a smile: "You will be beheaded tomorrow, I admire you as a man, I want you to be a full ghost before you die!" ”

The man was stunned for a moment, and suddenly exclaimed: "Impossible, it is not possible for me to be sentenced before the autumn trial!" ”

The jailer sneered, "That's an ordinary prisoner, and you don't want to offend anyone!" I advise you to eat what you have! ”

The man overturned the food that the jailer put on the ground, "Lao Tzu doesn't eat, Lao Tzu doesn't believe it!" ”

The jailer's eyes darkened, showing a few traces of vicious light, and he unhurriedly got a glass of wine in his hand, "I advise you to drink this glass of wine obediently, so as not to suffer yourself!" ”

The man felt the murderous aura on the jailer's body, and the instinct to survive made him constantly break free from the iron chain in his hand, and looked at the poisonous wine handed over by the jailer in horror.

"Huh!" A coquettish laugh came.

The jailer was shocked, turned his head stiffly, and saw a girl in a light yellow dress standing outside the cell, with a mocking expression on the girl's face, one hand supporting her chin, and said lightly: "I didn't expect that Brother Zixuan really said that someone would really kill this prisoner!" She looked at the jailer with cold eyes, and frowned slightly, "It turns out that there are really moles here!" The corners of her mouth hooked, looking a little cruel, "Miss Ben's favorite thing to do is to ask the culprit's mastermind behind the scenes, you don't have to confess so quickly, you can just try my newly invented poison!" ”

The jailer's face was as white as paper, he knelt down urgently, kowtowed and begged for mercy: "Miss spare your life, Miss spare your life, say everything to the little one, what do you want to know, say anything to the little one!" ”

This girl is naturally Shangguan Yingxue, she snorted twice, shook her head and said, "It's really not interesting!" He commanded left and right, "Take him down!" ”

Shangguan Yingxue set her eyes on the bearded man again, her delicate eyebrows were still frowning, there was a little more suspicion in her eyes, and she thought in her heart, "What is the identity of this man, why does Shangguan Zixuan pay more attention to this person?" Just when she was groaning, when the jailer was led by several long followers to pass by her, he suddenly had a dagger in his hand, he rushed to Shangguan Yingxue with a hideous face, pulled his arm, and firmly tied it to his chest, the dagger lowered her white jade-like neck, and looked at the front of him with cracked teeth, and shouted: "Get out of the way, or I will kill her!" Get out of the way, hear me! ”

Shangguan Yingxue's eyes showed a hint of panic, but she said calmly: "You can go out to hold me hostage?" You'd better let me go now, or Miss Ben will make you worse than dead!" ”

The jailer's hand trembled, "If it falls into your hands, you will die, so you have to gamble!" ”

As he spoke, he held the snow in one hand and slowly retreated.

After walking about a few dozen steps, the jailer couldn't help but show surprise on his face when he saw the exit of the prison in front of him.

A few steps away from the gate, a dart flew quickly and stabbed into the jailer's forehead. Blood poured down his cheeks, and he saw that his eyes had not had time to close, and his body fell straight to the ground.

Shangguan Yingxue stroked her neck, left the corpse a few steps away, and looked forward with a calm gaze.

The moonlight is bleak. The night was dark.

I saw that in the darkness ahead, several lanterns glowed dimly, and as the lights slowly approached, a sedan chair appeared. The sedan chair moved very quickly, like a ghost, and before long, it had already arrived in front of Shangguan Yingxue.

The corners of Shangguan Yingxue's mouth were raised, revealing a little disdain, and the whites of her eyes rolled, "Who am I, it turned out to be the second son of Huangfu!" ”

"What a heartless girl, I saved your life just now!" A smiling voice came out of the sedan chair, the voice was slightly nasal, a little light, but the words were clear, and the gentle words and laughter were also with a hint of ruthlessness.

"He has been poisoned by me, and he will die in less than five steps, who wants you to meddle in your business!" Shangguan Yingxue snorted and said lightly.

"Hehe, even if it's nosy!"

His tone was like coaxing a child, and Shangguan Yingxue suddenly raised her eyebrows, "It was meant to be!" After a pause, she asked again: "The second master just returned to Chang'an with his brother today, what are you doing in such a hurry to come to the prison?" ”

There was silence in the sedan chair for a moment, and then a sigh came out, "It's not for that uncompetitive friend Murong Xuan!" It's for him to rush back non-stop! ”

Shangguan Yingxue sneered, her expression became more and more disdainful, and said with a smile: "It is rumored that the second son is as good as Longyang, but it turns out that it is not groundless!" ”

"You girl is unforgiving, for your brother's sake, I won't bother with you today, but there will be no next time!" Even the laughter is still cold, with a hint of gloom.

Shangguan Yingxue's body paused slightly, and suddenly felt as if a cold wind was blowing behind her.

Several long-term followers also came, and when they saw that the master was fine, they were relieved and came to Shangguan Yingxue to ask for instructions.

Bah! Do you think it's great to have a queen aunt? I don't have a cousin yet! Shangguan Yingxue pouted, "Let's go!" ”

Following.

The housekeeper stood respectfully in front of the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and after the carriage in front of him stopped steadily, he stepped forward to lift the curtain and greeted him with a smile, "Miss, you have arrived!" ”

A cold figure came out of the car, she glanced at the housekeeper in front of her with a faint look in her eyes, and answered lightly. Just as he was about to get out of the car, a warm male voice came from behind, "Be careful in everything!" Amber eyes flickered slightly, and he leaned over the woman's ear and said in a very low voice: "Don't believe even to Yao, he is not as simple as you seem." Fu straightened up again and said, "I'll come to see you from time to time!" ”

The woman was helped out of the car by the housekeeper, and only when she got to the ground did she look back at the man in the car, his amber eyes can always give people a feeling of warmth like spring, "I remember your words, you can rest assured, I will protect myself!" ”

As the carriage walked in the dust, Murong Xun always looked ahead with a faint complexion, his eyes calm. The housekeeper thinks that he is used to seeing all kinds of people with the prime minister, and he has also practiced a little bit in figuring out people's minds, but at this moment, he can't guess the emotions of this teenage girl, whether she is happy or sad?
