Chapter 61
The man who was let go by Qin Han stumbled out of the side yard, hiding in a low bush and waiting for the night to fall, he sat down against a tree, his chest rose and fell violently, he felt a little undecided, this man was young, his kung fu was too high, and his expression was also fierce, and for a moment there was a real sense of fear, as if he would die in the next second.
As time passed, it soon darkened, and he looked up at the sky, thinking that the hour was almost the same, and quietly climbed over the wall at the very edge of the prince's hall and landed in a small alley. He looked in both directions, and finally chose to run towards the street, blending in with the crowd, his public face soon becoming less conspicuous.
By the darkness, moving close to the corner, the man avoided the eyes of the guards guarding outside the gate, and he held on to the outer wall to find it slowly, and after walking for a long time he found the horse at the corner of the outer wall that he had been tied to under a tree with a crooked neck, and the horse kept stamping his feet in place, as if he was not satisfied with why he had imprisoned it here. The man smoothed the horse's hair, calmed its restlessness, then untied the reins, rolled over the horse, and swept away.
The journey from the Central Plains to the Northwest takes more than ten days even if it is a fast horse and a fast horse, day and night, so when the man sets foot on the land of the Northwest again, it is already ten days later.
And in the palace between the ten days, Xia Huai bought a house for Xia Chi outside the city, and after pacifying everything, he mentioned to Xia Yuan that he hoped that he could stay in the palace and not disappear without a word like before. This time, Xia Yuan did not refuse Xia Huai, but just let his subordinates throw all of Xia Yi's things into the dungeon with peace of mind, and asked the palace maid to clean all the rooms thoroughly and live in this palace that once belonged to him again.
Until one day, when Xia Yuan was walking by the artificial lake in the prince's palace with some idleness, he suddenly remembered that his father seemed to have let a spy who claimed to be Xia Yi in the northwest live in the side courtyard that had been deserted.
Xia Yuan, who suddenly had a bad taste, wanted to see what kind of face this was, so that he could be mixed in the palace in the northwest for so long and not be discovered. So Xia Yuan changed the direction and continued to walk, and when he wandered, he already saw the side courtyard of the Prince's Palace, where the gate of the courtyard was already entwined with vines.
It's just that the weeds in this courtyard are taller than the calves, and the air is full of dust.
Xia Yuan, who walked into the side yard, felt like he was stuck to his trachea with dust for a moment, and couldn't help coughing, and then he quickly covered his mouth and nose, and fanned the air in front of him with his other hand, trying to disperse the dust.
Qin Han, who heard the sound of approaching footsteps outside the house, put on a human skin mask vigilantly, looked out through the window. After seeing that it was Xia Yuan, he breathed a sigh of relief, sat back at the table, pretended not to notice who it was, and waited quietly for Xia Yuan to knock on the door.
"Is anyone there, please? Ahem. The knock on the door sounded quickly, but soon Xia Yuan's cough also sounded.
Qin Han hurriedly opened the door and asked worriedly, "Your Highness, what's wrong with you?" ”
"Ahem, this ash, ahem, choking." Xia Yuan covered his mouth and coughed while fanning the air in front of his nose, looking uncomfortable.
"I'm sorry Your Highness, it's all my fault, I didn't expect His Highness to come here, I should have cleaned the entire side courtyard when I cleaned the room before."
Xia Yuan's eyes were a little red when he coughed, he squinted one eye and looked at the man in front of him who didn't have any memory but had a very familiar voice, and said something that only Qin Han would say, and asked casually, "You are Xia Yi's spy?" ”
After listening to Xia Yuan's words, Qin Han touched his face strangely, and then remembered that the human skin mask he had just put on when he was worried that it was the emperor's person had not taken off, so it was no wonder that Xia Yuan did not recognize himself.
"Your Highness, why don't you take a closer look at who I am?" Qin Han took off the human skin mask on his face.
"Brother Qin? Sure enough, it was you, I wondered, why did the spy have such a voice and tone like you, why are you here? Xia Yuan looked like I knew it was like this, smashed Qin Han's shoulder with his fist, and said, "That so-called Northwest spy can't be you, right?" ”
"It's not easy to say, it was indeed me you saw in the imperial study a few days ago, when I entered the palace and was still thinking about how to release the news, I happened to meet this unlucky guy, I thought it would be better for me to go directly to the emperor instead of him, and then tied him up, but now, the real one has been driven back to the northwest by me, and I went back with words." Qin Han's eyes flashed with pride.
"Oh? What words? Xia Yuan became interested.
Qin Han leaned closer to Xia Yuan, and said with a serious face: "I asked him to go back and tell his master that he has been abandoned by the emperor and the entire Xia Dynasty, at that time, with Xia Yi's character, he will definitely hate the emperor to the core, plus the emperor himself is more partial to you, if he is released from the northwest at this time, at that time, the entire palace is estimated to set off a bloody storm, Your Highness, you only need to take action when to subdue the physically exhausted Xia Yi on the charge of assassination, Then there will be no one who will hinder you, Your Highness. ”
"Wonderful, Brother Qin is really the one who understands me best." Xia Yuan couldn't control the corners of his mouth, and as Qin Han's words continued to rise, he was really his good brother, understand me!
"Your Highness, the glance you made when you looked at me in the imperial study, I understood why you asked me to bring the news into the palace at that time, and I also understood your ultimate purpose."
"Brother Qin, it's really worthy of you." Xia Yuan happily hooked Qin Han's neck, Qin Han stiffened for a moment, His Highness suddenly What's wrong, although His Highness has often done some confusing things since his memory has recovered, or said something he doesn't understand, those are all counted, but this kind of action that transcends his identity, isn't it a little bad!!
"Your Highness, have you lowered your status a little like this?" Qin Han swallowed his saliva, this is His Royal Highness, how can he hook up with one of his subordinates!
"What does it matter, Brother Qin, you are my good brother." Xia Yuan didn't care about Qin Han's concerns at all, but was immersed in joy, "Go to my palace to drink tonight?" ”
"Your Highness, have you forgotten that you can't drink?" Qin Han couldn't resist Xia Yuan, so he had to let him hook his neck, not daring to move, not daring to move.
"What does it matter? If you don't know how to drink, you always have to learn, and when you become the emperor in the future, what can you do if you can't drink? You can't always replace the bar with tea, and the ministers and officials will definitely have opinions. Xia Yuan took Qin Han to the outside of the courtyard, "I used to secretly bury a jar of wine under the peach tree, which was originally dug up again on the day of the big day, I don't know if Xia Yi has lived for so long, has it been stolen by him." ”
"Your Highness......" Qin Han looked at Xia Yuan beside him a little helplessly, when did this Highness start to be so unruly?
