Chapter 20 Who is the Master?
Wanxiang honestly followed Xiao Huaijin into his room, and as soon as he sat down, he said, "There is indeed something for you to do." ”
"Murder?" The outline of the little face of the incense under the candle flame looked very good, and Xiao Huaijin wrote a name on the paper.
"This person is in Yucheng, you have to deal with King Yi before he arrives in Yucheng, go back quickly. By the way, he still has a fold in his hand, and you can find it and bring it back. ”
"What excerpt?"
Xiao Huaijin wrote another row of words on the paper, and Wanxiang read it: "The subordinates understand." ”
After speaking, Xiao Huaijin took out his token and handed it to Wanxiang's hand: "If you can't do it......"
"If you can't do it, your subordinates will come to see you."
He looked into Juanxiang's eyes and couldn't speak, and finally squeezed out a sentence: "Go ahead." ”
Wanxiang turned around to leave, and was just about to walk out of the door when she suddenly turned back: "Will the prince take advantage of the fact that his subordinates are no longer there and secretly have a room with the princess?" ”
Xiao Huaijin raised his eyes and looked at her: "What did you say?" ”
I said...... If the subordinates don't come back, even if the prince is bored, he will have a round room with the princess. If he is forced to think of something big in the future, Nanjiang will definitely help the prince. ”
"Juanxiang, you're taking care of more and more things."
"The subordinates just want the prince to live well."
"Then you will leave with all your body and come back to protect me."
Akika nodded, and walked out of the room again.
said that she couldn't ride a horse, but as soon as she stepped out of the mansion and stepped on the horse that Xiao Huaijin had prepared for her, she disappeared into the night and disappeared. She was in a hurry to go to Yucheng, for fear that if she was one step too late, Xiao Huaijin's fate would be held in the hands of others.
That night, Aunt Ruan waited for Wanxiang for a long time and didn't see her come back, only Qi'er knew what Wanxiang was doing, and sat in front of the candlestick with an uneasy expression.
Xiao Huaijin carefully counted the days when Wanxiang came back. She shouldn't be worried and reluctant, she is a dead soldier raised by herself, isn't it common to work hard?
If she is as reluctant as she is now, what use do you want her?
This time, Xiao Huaijin asked Wanxiang to kill, and it was the prefect of Yucheng.
On that day, the prefect had a big birthday, and the front yard was full of friends, and the singer was babbling and singing a little song with a pipa. The backyard is brightly lit, and the maids are busy.
Yucheng has been flooded for many years, and the imperial court has allocated funds to repair the embankment several times, but the embankment is not very good, but there are a lot more good things in the house. The incense knocked on the wall, and I don't know if the wall was embedded with the silver taels that the little emperor had set aside to repair the embankment.
When all the drunken people were gone, the prefect with a fat brain returned to the room and planned to find his concubine. When I got to the house, I didn't see the concubine, and a girl came out of the bathtub.
The prefect thought that he couldn't see clearly when he was drunk, so he asked, "Where did the beauty come from?" ”
Wanxiang lay on the side of the bathtub and whispered: "My lord, the concubine was sent by His Royal Highness King Yi to serve the adult. ”
"Oh?"
Saying that, Wanxiang stretched out her little hand and grabbed the prefect's clothes: "His Royal Highness King Yi asked, has the recital of the Tibetan soldiers of King Pingnan been written?" ”
The prefect was full of alcohol, and smiled obscenely with a red face: "It's written!" ”
"That'...... Where? ”
"It's in the ...... of the study" The prefect looked back at Juanxiang: "Little beauty, are you sent by His Royal Highness King Yi?" It's better to take out the token first. ”
Wanxiang laughed and clung to the prefect's neck, pressed the person into the water, and before he could struggle, he wiped his neck with a knife, and the blood bloomed into flowers in the water.
Wanxiang slowly stepped out of the bathtub, changed out of her wet clothes and stuffed them under the bed. Put on your black clothes and tie your hair, find the study and start flipping.
Finally, Wanxiang turned under the table and hurriedly ran out before dawn.
Ran to the east of the city to find a carriage, leaned back against the carriage and threw a gold brick from the prefect into the carriage: "You two run faster, you will be caught back if you are late." ”
"I don't know the girl's name? He will repay this great favor one day. ”
Wanxiang stood outside and laughed, afraid that the two of them would hate him so much that the roots of his teeth itched. Without notice, he turned around and left.
So the next day, news came out from Yucheng: the prefect was murdered by the concubine, and the concubine eloped with her lover.
Wanxiang sat in the teahouse and heard the news, rubbed her eyebrows, thinking that time was still rich, so she went to Beixun.
Xiao Huaijin waited in the house for three days and didn't see anyone come back, seemingly calm and relaxed, but in fact, he couldn't sit still. It was time to come back last night, and seeing that the sunset was dyeing the sky red again, how could she ......
"Lord Wang, do you want to go down and investigate?"
"No."
On the night of the fifth day, there was still no one, Xiao Huaijin couldn't sit still at all, and suddenly shouted: "Liang Cuo." ”
"Lord Wang."
Before Xiao Huaijin could speak, he heard someone outside shouting: "Girl, where have you been?!" ”
Hearing the voice, Xiao Huaijin threw away the pen and ran towards the door, and saw Wanxiang, who was dressed in black, stretching out her food to Ji'er and signaling her to silence: "Shhh...... Be quiet, I came back at night on purpose, so I can't let anyone know. ”
Qi'er nodded, and Wanxiang turned her head to see Xiao Huaijin looking at Wanxiang with a serious cold face. Wanxiang patted Qi'er's hand and walked in front of Xiao Huaijin: "Lord Wang." ”
"Hmph." Xiao Huaijin walked back to the room with his hands behind his back, and Wanxiang also followed behind. When Xiao Huaijin sat down, Wanxiang took out the book from his arms: "Does the prince want this?" ”
Xiao Huaijin hung her thick and slender eyelashes like feathers: "Why did you go for five whole days?" ”
Wanxiang put down the fold, and muttered with a little weakness: "Wanxiang...... I went back to Beixun. ”
"Oh? What to do in Beixun? ”
"Eat the noodle soup made by Aunt Hong...... Wanxiang said and lowered her head knowing that she was at a loss.
"Eat noodle soup?" Xiao Huaijin was so angry that he directly smashed the book in his hand in front of Wanxiang: "Don't you know that you should come back and go to Beixun to eat noodle soup in a hurry?!" ”
"Subordinate...... Hungry. ”
"Isn't there enough noodle soup in the palace for you to eat?! Or do you have two masters in Beixun? ”
Wanxiang raised her head and sighed lightly: "My subordinates have followed the prince from birth to death for many years, and they have been suspected of eating a bowl of noodle soup with a greedy mouth, and they are really wronged." ”
"Are you wronged?" Xiao Huaijin's eyes widened: "You should have come back two days ago, this king has been waiting for you for two days!" ”
Wanxiang picked up the book on the ground, patted the sticky ash on it and sent it to Xiao Huaijin: "Lord Wang." ”
Xiao Huaijin glanced at her and didn't pick up the book, Wanxiang tilted her head in front of Xiao Huaijin: "Lord Wang? ”
“……”
"Is the prince worried about his subordinates? Afraid that your subordinates won't come back? Wanxiang reached out to pinch Xiao Huaijin's chin, and Xiao Huaijin knocked off Wanxiang's hand: "This king is afraid of you...... I'm afraid you'll judge the Lord. ”
"That's right." Wanxiang put down the book: "Okay, my subordinates are chilled." ”
As he spoke, Wanxiang threw it on the table with Xiao Huaijin's token, turned around and left.
Xiao Huaijin still wanted to stop her, but she felt that what she just said was really hurtful, and shouted at Wanxiang's back: "Who is the master?!" ”
Wanxiang shook her braids twice, and jumped a little: "Of course it's the prince!" ”
At this moment, Xiao Huaijin couldn't hold back his face, and couldn't hold back his laughter. Fortunately, she came back alive, and it was a little worrying.
"Liang is wrong."
"The subordinates are here."
"Wanxiang is tired, I won't be in the house tomorrow, and no one is allowed to enter the yard."
"Yes."
Wanxiang was really tired, and slept until noon the next day. When I woke up, I saw the little girl waiting by the bed, and Wanxiang looked at it with empty eyes for a while: "Ji'er." ”
"The girl is so tired and confused that she even has to admit it for a long time."
"For Aunt Hong's bowl of noodle soup, I haven't closed my eyes for a few nights." Saying that, Wanxiang breathed a long sigh of relief: "Has the princess been here in the past few days?" ”
"I've been here. said that he was coming to see the girl, but the prince said that the girl was sick and blocked the door. ”
Ling Zhao is afraid that what is sold in this gourd is not a good medicine, since she can't get in, she won't go out to find it.
But it just responded to Wanxiang's sentence 'The tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop', and before Xiao Huaijin came back, they quarreled at the door.
