Chapter 021: Jincheng rests

After this turmoil, Murong Yixuan marched cautiously and caught up with the large group in front without any waves.

After understanding, there was no loss of grain and grass, which also made Murong Yixuan relieved, but who bought these Jianghu people, who has such a big hand? ! Murong Yixuan silently hid this matter in his heart, but he could easily think of the target person!

After two days of marching, they came to Jincheng, a border city in Linyue Kingdom, Murong Yixuan immediately passed down the military order, and the army rested in Jincheng for a few days, which also made the soldiers very satisfied, at least they didn't have to rush in the wind and snow.

Although this place is still the Linyue Kingdom, everywhere Murong Yixuan goes, it is as if the Moon Emperor is there in person, and the original Jincheng defenders are all submissive when they see Murong Yixuan.

Murong Yixuan suddenly became very arrogant, occupying the entire Great General's Mansion, and then sent a message: "Your Highness wants to rest the army here, rest for a few more days, wait for the snow to melt and the ice to disappear, and then continue to march!" ”

How dare this general defend the city say a word and move everyone in his family out of the general's mansion.

Xiao Chengxi was arranged by Yan Feng in a relatively quiet courtyard, and no one disturbed him.

Finally able to sleep well, after more than two days of hard work, she is really tired, although she has just had lunch, but she still can't care so much, and lies comfortably on the bed, these two days, the seventh prince has not appeared in front of him, as if he has forgotten his existence, if he can live so peacefully, it is really cheap himself!

After a period of sleepiness, Xiao Chengxi lay on the bed, and after a while, he fell asleep.

When she opened her eyes, she felt as if she was in an ice cellar, awakened by freezing, and looked out the window, it was already dark at night.

Xiao Chengxi got up, rubbed his body, and got out of bed, is there nothing to warm up in such a cold winter? Can't help but sneeze.

She pushed the door and came to the door, the moon had risen outside, she didn't know what time it was, she just felt that the yard was quiet, Xiao Chengxi didn't know how long she had been sleeping, did they really forget about themselves?

At this time, a flute sounded tactfully, especially with this cold moonlight, it was even more lonely, this flute was in this courtyard, Xiao Chengxi subconsciously walked towards this flute.

After walking a few steps, I saw the Seventh Prince Murong Yixuan leaning on a large pillar under the corridor, facing the courtyard, playing alone.

As soon as Xiao Chengxi stepped into the courtyard, the sound of the flute stopped abruptly, Murong Yixuan looked up and saw Xiao Chengxi, his eyes were facing each other, Xiao Chengxi couldn't hide, so he had to step over.

When he came closer, Xiao Chengxi took the initiative to speak: "Your Highness the Seventh, are your injuries better?" As he spoke, he observed Murong Yixuan, his face was still pale, but his lips were a little bloody.

"It's nothing more." Murong Yixuan held the bamboo flute in his hand and responded to her, but the loneliness on that face had nowhere to hide, and he couldn't hide it if he wanted to.

Xiao Chengxi saw it clearly, presumably he thought of his sister again, such a moonlight, such a night, it can remind people of the person she thinks of, she couldn't help but gently touch the bead on her chest.

"The princess remembers her relatives again?" Murong Yixuan's eyes fell on Xiao Chengxi's body, and such a small action was naturally in full view.

Xiao Chengxi looked at the secluded courtyard, those problems should always be faced, she was mentally prepared, and said softly: "I must be thinking of my relatives, isn't it me, does His Royal Highness also think of his relatives?" ”

Murong Yixuan looked at Xiao Chengxi with some incredulity, she clearly knew that her grievance with him was on her sister, and she dared to mention this sentence in front of her! Did she really forget!

After getting along for a period of time, Murong Yixuan changed his attitude towards Xiao Chengxi, it was not that he was angry when he met, he suddenly wanted to explore her! Murong Yixuan was already able to suppress that anger, just because he was a little hesitant in his heart, because the woman in front of him was not as weak and afraid of things as others described!

"Not only do I think of my sister, I also think of my mother!" Murong Yixuan sighed, looked down at the bamboo flute in his hand, and said such a sentence with a lot of sadness.

Murong Yixuan's sudden sadness infected Xiao Chengxi: "The bamboo flute in the hands of His Royal Highness the Seventh is ......"

Looking at the cautious Xiao Chengxi, the corners of Murong Yixuan's mouth moved slightly, it seemed to be a smile, but it was fleeting: "This is the last thing my sister gave me before she left Qingxiao!" ”

Xiao Chengxi's gaze did not leave the bamboo flute, a very exquisite gadget, it must have been carefully collected by Murong Yixuan, the bamboo flute was full of brilliance, I don't know how many times he had touched it!

"Born in the emperor's family, maybe this is the fate we can't escape!" Xiao Chengxi suddenly sighed, "Presumably, Princess Qinghe was also reluctant to leave home at the beginning, but she was sent to Linyue to be Princess Proton." She said such a cruel truth by the way, she just felt it, if her crossing did not coincide with the fall of Linyue, how could there be such a tortuous encounter!

Murong Yixuan took the bamboo flute in his arms, hugged his shoulders, and just looked at Xiao Chengxi, and there was no wave in his expression: "What you said is right, it is true that I forced you to leave Linyue and come here with me." The tone was also unusually calm, and it seemed to be just in response to Xiao Chengxi's exclamation just now.

"Princess Qinghe's death, I will investigate it carefully, and ask His Royal Highness the Seventh to allow me some time!" Xiao Chengxi faced Murong Yixuan's quiet grief, and his heart was a little uncomfortable.

"Don't worry, I've been waiting for two years, and I don't care about waiting any longer!" Murong Yixuan waved his hand, even he couldn't imagine that in such a short time, he could talk about his sister so calmly in front of this woman.

This surprised Xiao Chengxi very much, but what surprised him even more was Murong Yixuan's next words: "Tonight, I think of my queen mother even more!" ”

Xiao Chengxi looked at Murong Yixuan silently, maybe like his identity, there are few people who can be listeners, and many of his words may only be stuffed in his stomach.

"Hearing the news of the death of my sister Princess Qinghe, my queen mother is not so sad, she takes into account my feelings, so my queen mother will not be so easily grieved!" Speaking of this, a trace of murderous aura suddenly flashed in Murong Yixuan's eyes! But after glancing at Xiao Chengxi, he had no desire to continue.

Xiao Chengxi suddenly realized something, maybe there are many reasons for the death of the Seven Princes and the Queen Mother!

"Since I have said it, I have said it all, except for the queen mother who is far away in the sky, no one else can let me open my heart to speak, and the words of the Seventh Highness have entered my ears, and they have fallen silent!" Xiao Chengxi encouraged softly.

Murong Yixuan's inexplicable impetuousness was suddenly alleviated, these words, he couldn't say to his close guards, nor could he tell the old lady, although their hearts were towards themselves, they always felt that something was missing, tonight, I don't know why, in front of this woman, he finally didn't want to suppress himself anymore, and chose to vomit as soon as possible!

"Originally, my father planned to let me go to your Linyue Kingdom to be a proton, and my mother naturally cried and begged, but the other princes had someone to support her, and my mother was a foreign princess, so she was naturally lonely." Murong Yixuan's thoughts were brought to many years ago, and this incident was his turning point!

Xiao Chengxi felt as if she was listening to a close friend, and she was quiet, for fear of interrupting him.

"Later, my sister Princess Qinghe couldn't bear to let me leave after seeing her mother, and my sister also felt sorry for me, an eleven-year-old child was sent to a completely strange place! So, my sister asked my father to go to Linyue Kingdom to be the princess of Proton instead of me. When Murong Yixuan said this, there seemed to be something crystal in the corner of his eyes, and Xiao Chengxi sighed that the world was hot and cold!

"But my sister Princess Qinghe was only fourteen years old at the time!" There was a bit of bitterness in Murong Yixuan's tone, "He has lived in your Linyue for ten years!" ”

The next thing, Xiao Chengxi guessed, ten years later, he suddenly received bad news from his sister, no matter who it is, it will not be calm, and it will be burdened with extremely heavy things from now on!

"My sister passed away, although my mother is sad, but she has always been strong, and she was also assassinated to death!" Xiao Chengxi suddenly understood that Murong Yixuan's endless hatred also contained the tragic death of the queen mother!

"Do you have any suspicions about the death of your mother?" Xiao Chengxi felt that Murong Yixuan, who was so smart, must have secretly investigated a lot, and he was so persistent about his sister's death, so he would be equally persistent about the death of his mother!

Murong Yixuan nodded: "This is natural, and you will see them soon." Who it was, he didn't say.

Xiao Chengxi just nodded, and without waiting for her to continue asking, Murong Yixuan continued: "When you encounter an ambush on the road, it should be someone who wants to cut the grass and eradicate the roots!" A sneer tugged at the corner of his mouth.

"It turns out that His Highness thought of an ambush on the road!" Xiao Chengxi shook his head gently, his identity is a noble prince, but the danger that comes with it is also extremely high, at any time, someone will secretly make a move and fall into the well!

"After so many years, I have become accustomed to fighting, or rather, if I don't fight, there is no hope of living!" Murong Yixuan looked up at the quiet night sky, let out a long sigh, and said no more.

"No matter how much emotion there is, no matter how much hatred there is, but His Highness's mind has not been affected in the slightest!" Xiao Chengxi smiled slightly, and said such a sentence easily, the original intention was to adjust the gloomy atmosphere.
