Chapter 196: Eradicating Chess Pieces?
Luo Mingxuan originally raised his eyes to look at King Rong, but when he heard what he said, he couldn't help but look back at the small bag.
What King Rong said was: "My father has a decree that the five royal brothers must open this small package at the gate of the city that has not yet entered the border pass. ”
It was really too strange this will, so Luo Mingxuan couldn't help but be puzzled, but although his eyes were fixed on the small package in his hand, he didn't mean to open it for a long time.
And Bai Youlan, who had been observing King Rong's every move on the side, couldn't help frowning slightly at this time, because when King Rong took out the small bag, she faintly smelled a trace of bitterness in the air.
Bai Youlan stepped forward and took it from Luo Mingxuan's hand. He took the small cloth bag, approached the tip of his nose and sniffed it carefully, and his eyes immediately flashed with a sparkling light.
She really didn't smell it wrong, the smell faintly emanating from the small cloth bag in her hand belonged to a medicinal herb called the green nightmare scale wood!
This green scale wood is an extremely rare tonic medicine after being made into medicinal materials, but if it is exposed to the air, it will emit a slight smell with a little bitterness, and the medicinal effect will play a role with the emission of this smell until the smell disappears, and this medicinal herb will be wasted.
The emperor asked Luo Mingxuan to open the cloth bag at the gate of the city outside the border pass, such a ventilated and bright place, revealing the green scale wood inside, coupled with the masculinity of the surrounding people and soldiers, it is the best way to give full play to the effect of this medicinal herb.
It is only because this green scale wood is in such an environment that it will benefit the holder the most and play the greatest role in replenishing the body.
Thinking about it, the emperor must have spent a lot of effort to get this green nightmare scale wood, and took the opportunity of King Rong to go to the border pass to bring it to Luo Mingxuan.
There was a faint smell in the air, and it was only when King Rong was on his way to come that something wrapped in the green scale wood was slightly damaged.
Originally, this was the emperor's love for Luo Mingxuan, and the emperor should have hoped to use this miracle medicine to let Luo Mingxuan get rid of his frail state, but it was a pity that the emperor didn't know that Luo Mingxuan's so-called frailty and sickness came from the multiple poisons in him, and the poison in Luo Mingxuan's body conflicted with this green nightmare scale wood!
It was originally a miracle medicine to replenish the body, but when it came to Luo Mingxuan, it became a life-threatening talisman that would make Luo Mingxuan die of poison on the spot!
Bai Youlan sniffed a few times, and when she confirmed that the thing in it was really a green nightmare scale, her face became solemn, and she slowly took the small cloth bag into her arms.
This scene happened to be seen by Wu Haoyan, who had just been punished and was supported back by his body, and immediately shouted: "Princess Jing dares to resist and disobey the order, is it possible that she wants to rebel!" ”
Originally, this sentence should have been drunk with momentum, but this Wu Haoyan received thirty military sticks, and it was not easy to hold on to it without fainting at this time, this sentence was said by him to be weak, and there was no momentum at all, except for the people he brought and reacted, the rest of the people all regarded it as not heard, and they didn't even look at him without squinting.
Bai Youlan looked at him with a cold smile on the corner of her lips and said nothing, and when Luo Mingxuan heard him say the three words "Princess Jing", his cold and deep gaze had already swept towards him.
In Wu Haoyan's frightened gaze, Luo Mingxuan's tone was cold and indifferent, but it was chilling to speak: "Brother Rong, it's time for you to change someone to follow you." ”
At this time, although Wu Haoyan was flustered in his heart, he still said stubbornly: "Lord Jing, you can't do this!" ”
He has always known when he follows King Rong that King Jing Luo Mingxuan is easy not to speak, and opening his mouth is the master who says the same, even the current emperor will make concessions to him, let alone others?
But there is still a trace of luck in his heart, he came to the border with King Rong by holy order, and he is King Rong's henchman, King Rong should save his life.
It's just that when he saw King Rong Luo Qianmo looking back at him, he immediately saw the regret in King Rong's gaze, and his heart was completely flustered, ignoring the pain in his body, and shouted loudly: "Lord Rong save me, Lord Rong save me...... Yes! ”
As soon as he called out twice, Wu Haoyan had already been snatched by the soldiers under Luo Mingxuan's command from the hands of the people who were supporting him, where would those soldiers be polite to Wu Haoyan, who was rude to Bai Youlan three times and twice, and kicked him to the ground at the moment.
That kick happened to hit the place where he received the baton, and at that moment Wu Haoyan screamed and lay on the ground, almost fainting in pain, where could he still say half a sentence?
Seeing this, Rong Wang Luo Qianmo couldn't bear to close his eyes, everyone knew that this Wu Haoyan was his person who was King Rong, if he didn't say a word today, just let Wu Haoyan be damaged at the border, I am afraid that not only would it make his existing subordinates chill, but no one would follow him from now on!
After weighing the pros and cons, although he knew that Luo Mingxuan would never change his order, King Rong still turned around and gave Luo Mingxuan a light salute.
"Brother Wuwang, Wu Senjun has offended many times today, but can you forgive him this time for the sake of Qianmo's face? The Wu Senjun is also a general who came to the border pass by the holy decree of his father, and asked the five royal brothers to slow down and let him complete his will, and when he returned to the capital in the future, Qianmo should detain him to his father to ask for guilt. ”
King Rong's words were reasonable and sincere, but Luo Mingxuan raised his eyes slightly and looked at him, and did not say whether to forgive or not, but King Rong could see the resoluteness in his indifferent gaze, as well as the coldness after hearing his words.
King Rong knew that because he mentioned his father, Luo Mingxuan might mistakenly think that he was using his father to threaten him, although he was only stating one thing, but he had completely angered Luo Mingxuan.
There is no room for manoeuvre in this matter.
With a slight sigh in his heart, King Rong glanced at Wu Haoyan, who was lying on the ground and couldn't even scream, and said earnestly to Luo Mingxuan again: "Qianmo begs the fifth brother to spare Wu's life in the army, and Qianmo is here to thank you!" ”
King Rong bowed to the end, but Luo Mingxuan turned his eyes to Bai Youlan as if he didn't see it, took her hand and walked towards the city.
Poor King Rong was still in a posture of giving a salute and was left hanging there, and that Wu Haoyan had already been dragged away, and it was unknown where he died.
In the city, Bai Youlan looked at Luo Mingxuan's side face and said: "Although you have always been indifferent, you are not so arrogant that no one can see it, even the repeated provocations of Duanwang can be ignored, why are you so kind to King Rong today?" ”
Hearing this, Luo Mingxuan pursed his lips slightly, groaned and said, "It's not aimed at King Rong. ”
Bai Youlan immediately asked, "Are you taking the opportunity to help King Rong eradicate the chess pieces sent by the queen?" ”
Bai Youlan lowered her voice when she asked this, and at the same time, she had a kind of realization in her heart that King Rong was indeed someone from Luo Mingxuan's side, but she heard Luo Mingxuan's indifferent answer: "I don't have that leisure." ”
Looking at Bai Youlan's more puzzled gaze, Luo Mingxuan didn't explain, only the drizzle hidden in the shadows fully understood why Luo Mingxuan did this, but he didn't dare to inform Bai Youlan of Luo Mingxuan's order privately.
"Whoever dares to provoke the princess will be killed!"
This is the reason why Wu Haoyan died tragically outside the border gate today.
This Wu Haoyan really doesn't know how to write the word death today, and he has repeatedly offended Bai Youlan, and the first time Luo Mingxuan did not directly order someone to drag him out and put him to death, which has already given King Rong enough face.
Who knew that this Wu Haoyan didn't know that he had escaped death, and he actually scolded Bai Youlan for resisting the order and not following the intention to rebel, how could Luo Mingxuan continue to tolerate it?
It's just that this order that Luo Mingxuan once said, Bai Youlan didn't know that she would have these doubts.
Seeing that Luo Mingxuan didn't want to say anything, Bai Youlan raised her eyebrows slightly, changed the topic, and said, "Why didn't you ask me why I didn't let you open that cloth bag on the spot?" ”
"No need to ask, you must have a reason for doing this."
Luo Mingxuan's tone was indifferent, and what he said was very natural, but Bai Youlan was moved by his trust.
No matter why, no matter what the purpose, as long as she spoke, as long as she wanted to do it, he never stopped it, he wouldn't ask, everything went her way.
To be able to do this, I am afraid it is not as simple as trust!
Bai Youlan raised her head slightly, imprinting this warm and sweet feeling deeply in her heart.
Back in the study, Bai Youlan took out the green nightmare scales in her arms, stuffed it into a brown paper bag and sealed it, and said: "Speaking of which, this is really a solid charge of disobedience, I don't know what kind of article some people will make after knowing about this matter." ”
Luo Mingxuan stood at the door and said in a light tone: "It's just a group of clowns jumping off the beam, Youlan doesn't need to worry." ”
After finishing the matter in hand, Bai Youlan raised her eyes and saw that Luo Mingxuan was still standing at the door, the slightly cold wind in late autumn blew in from outside the door, blowing up his black hair, and against the white clothes, there was an illusion that he was about to leave.
Frowning, Bai Youlan got up and walked over to close the door, but saw Rong Wang Luo Qianmo walking slowly, and there was no one by his side, only him alone.
"Five royal brothers and five royal sisters-in-law, Qianmo still has something to explain in the future, it is uninvited, if you disturb the five royal brothers and five royal sisters-in-law, don't blame."
looked at King Rong without a trace of different color on his face, as if what had happened before had not happened at all, and suddenly, Bai Youlan had doubts about her previous judgment, was King Rong really secretly helping Luo Mingxuan, or was he the same kind of person as Luo Yuze, the smiling tiger blessing king, who was humble and polite on the surface, but in fact he was full of intrigues and tricks?
