Chapter 4 The prince is reluctant
Because when he was ripped open by Xiao Huaijin and hit the table, the wound on Wanxiang's waist that had just grown opened again, and the blood oozed out little by little, and the pain pierced his heart.
"The prince's military exploits have been revealed, and some important ministers in the court have taken the opportunity to fall with the wind, and the emperor is borrowing the power of the Yi Wang Yuan family to balance the prince. Let me ask the prince, is this a good time to get rid of King Yi? ”
"Then it won't be your turn to call the shots for this king."
"Then the Lord has done it."
"This king doesn't allow the people around him to think too much."
"The prince can kill his subordinates, anyway, the little life of his subordinates was picked up by the prince."
“……”
"How?" Wanxiang endured the pain and hooked the corners of her mouth and asked, "Is the prince reluctant?" ”
Seeing that Xiao Huaijin still didn't start, Wanxiang gently picked away his big hand with her fingertips, stared at Xiao Huaijin with her eyebrows and put her hand on his chest again.
Xiao Huaijin immediately turned red-faced, and hurriedly slapped her hand: "What are you going to do?" ”
"Since he arrived in the imperial city, the prince can't stop doubting his subordinates, and his subordinates feel where the prince's conscience is."
Xiao Huaijin just wanted to say something, but Liang Cuo knocked on the door outside: "Lord Wang, His Royal Highness King Yi has come down." ”
"Some people really can't help but chatter, do you want to see the prince?" As if nothing had happened, Wanxiang withdrew her hand and stood beside Xiao Huaijin, seeing that his expression was a little erratic, Wanxiang couldn't help but blink her eyes twice and called: "Lord? ”
Xiao Huaijin relieved himself at this time, and took his gaze off Wanxiang's little face: "Bring him up." ”
In fact, Xiao Huaijin was not so angry, but she felt that this girl was becoming more and more difficult to educate, and she was not as well-behaved as she was when she was a child. In the end, I have been in the Tibetan Incense Pavilion for a long time, and I have learned a lot of messy things.
Although Wanxiang didn't feel that she had done anything wrong, she made the prince angry and carefully poured him tea.
At this time, King Yi was not polite, and came up to take away the tea that Wanxiang was about to hand to Xiao Huaijin: "Why did the imperial brother come back quietly?" ”
"It's too late, and I can't enter the palace at this time, so I haven't replied to the emperor, so there's no need to make any moves."
"The royal brother didn't live in the imperial city before, the things in the palace are old, and the younger brother wants to buy a new one for you, how do you know that the emperor is worried about you in his heart, and he first ordered the palace to be renovated."
Wanxiang's hand was still hanging in the air, and she quickly poured another cup of tea and handed it to Xiao Huaijin, and when she turned around, she was about to follow Liang Cuo out when she was stopped by King Yi: "Where did this woman come from?" Southern Xinjiang or Central Plains? The maid brought back by the royal brother? ”
"A handmaiden."
"Servant girl or servant?" As he spoke, King Yi asked with a wicked smile.
Xiao Huaijin didn't want to pay attention to this person, but he had to answer well, and laughed happily: "Are you interested?" ”
"How dare you covet the people around the imperial brother?"
Even if he was interested, Xiao Huaijin might not necessarily give him the incense.
"Do you know how to ride a horse?" He didn't care at all about Xiao Huaijin's conversation with Wanxiang.
"His Royal Highness King Huiyi, slaves and maids can't ride horses."
"Oh? Will that be archery? ”
"No, it won't." Akika replied with her eyes down.
"It seems to be a girl from the Central Plains, it's boring." After muttering this, King Yi turned his head and said to Xiao Huaijin again: "It's almost time to hang the head gold, in previous years, the royal brother was not in the city for the New Year, and this year it is easy to come back, but you want to grab the head gold?" Just asked Liang to go and rob it. ”
Wanxiang didn't know what the head gold was, so she only listened to Xiao Huaijin's unhurried answer: "The masters of the imperial city are like clouds, where is my turn to grab the head gold?" ”
"As soon as the imperial brother stopped by the window, most of the people in the city knew that the imperial brother had returned. A dignified prince, he didn't even dare to grab the head gold, and it was not good to say. Or...... Let you, little maid, try it? ”
"You're really kidding, she's a woman, what's there to try?"
Hearing this, King Yi felt a little bored, and fiddled with the wrench in his hand as if he suddenly remembered something: "Some time ago, the emperor rewarded my concubine with a pair of jade pillows with amphibious peonies, and I heard that the emperor rewarded Concubine Jing Niangniang at that time, does the imperial brother still have an impression?" ”
His mother's things, where can Xiao Huaijin not be impressed?
"Later, I opened the pillow and saw that there was a silk handkerchief inside, I don't know if it was Jing Niangniang's thing."
“……”
"If the imperial brother gets today's head gold, how about I give this jade pillow to the imperial brother?"
Xiao Huaijin looked at the bell tower not far away and didn't speak.
Wanxiang asked Liang Cuo in a low voice: "What is the head gold?" ”
"On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the lantern will be hung in the bell tower for three days, and those nobles will ask their men to rob it. It's not that I care about the bag of gold, it's just that it's auspicious. ”
"It's just a few pieces of gold, and there is nothing to grab for the prince."
"That's what I said, but that jade pillow is the stuff of the princess and the princess."
Hearing Xiao Huaijin's mother, Wanxiang hurriedly turned back to look at Xiao Huaijin, and heard that King Yi was still pouting: "How about the royal brother?" It's just a head of gold, and Liang Cuo didn't get it easily? ”
Xiao Huaijin looked up at Liang Cuo, Liang Cuo just wanted to step forward, looked at him and whispered, "You stay to protect the prince." ”
Then he stepped forward and knelt on the ground: "My subordinates are sent by the prince." ”
"If you're willing to go, then try."
Hearing Xiao Huaijin say this, King Yi seemed to be very happy when he heard it, and hurriedly called someone: "Okay, come here, take the girl to the bell tower." ”
Wanxiang took off the short knife she was carrying and put it on the corner of the table, and glanced at Xiao Huaijin meaningfully before leaving.
The time of a stick of incense passed, and there was no movement on the side of the bell tower, and Xiao Huaijin put down the teacup without any urgency. It wasn't until a thick bell rang in the distance that I heard the lively shouts outside.
Xiao Huaijin glanced up at the red shadow, and then waited with a calm heart. No one knew where this came from, such a girl in red, holding a red ribbon in both hands, and her dexterous little feet stepped on the wall and went up.
"Brother Huang, this little maid can't ride a horse or shoot arrows, but she knows some kung fu."
Liang Cuo stepped forward and called softly: "Lord Wang." ”
Then he raised his eyes and motioned Xiao Huaijin to look at the wall that Wanxiang had just leaned on, and a touch of blood red fell into his eyes. Thinking that Wanxiang's expression just now was a little unnatural, Xiao Huaijin hurriedly picked up Wanxiang's short knife and walked out.
"Brother Huang!"
Xiao Huaijin didn't care about King Yi chattering behind, and took Liang Cuo in the direction of the bell tower. In the end, it was the weight of his own hand just now that tore open her wounds.
Otherwise, Xiao Huaijin didn't have to worry about Wanxiang and those simple-minded rough men to grab things, standing under the high bell tower, his brows were tightly carved together.
Liang Cuo saw that Xiao Huaijin was a little worried, and comforted him: "Don't worry, with the stretch of your hand with incense, nothing will happen." ”
Look at the people above, there is only such a small woman as Juanxiang.
"Go up and tell her to come down."
"Wanxiang told me to stay here to protect the prince, in case King Yi ......"
"Get on board!"
