"It's just Jiang Gongzi, it's only been more than a month since you parted last time, you don't enjoy the glory and wealth in the mansion, why did you come to such a small place? There are so many things that are worthy of Gongzi's busyness in the capital and the court, how can Gongzi not suppress it! In case something happens, the far water can't save the fire. ”

"What Xiaoying said is extremely true, but-" Jiang Tong put away the fan with a "snap", stretched it out to Qu Youying's chin, picked it lightly, and said with a smile, "This son only thinks about Xiaoying in his heart, those who are glorious and rich, and the powerful in the court, compared with Xiaoying, can be put down at any time." ”

"Liar." Qu Youying's true form was revealed, opened his fan, and scolded without giving face, "Liar." ”

"You are still the first person who dares to say that this king is a liar and is still alive."

Jiang Tong was tepid and angry, and his face was soft.

"Are all the people who call you a liar dead?"

This kind of routine, Qu Youying can see a lot, so she doesn't care.

Jiang Tong took a sip of tea, and then said slowly, "So you also want to die?" ”

"Of course not." Qu Youying said honestly, "I want to live well and fulfill my unfulfilled wishes." ”

"Wish?" Jiang Tong frowned slightly, "But about your mother?" ”

He seemed puzzled, but Qu Youying was not a fool, those things outside, dressed in a boiling water, she dared to be sure that what he knew was much more than the rumors she had heard.

"Jiang Tong."

Qu Youying looked at him by name, folded her hands on the table, and leaned forward.

"You came here with me to get the rumored red beads, right? And then what treasures you get, you can buy more people and do more things. And I heard that among that treasure, there is also the jade seal of the co-lord of the world. You are the prince, and King Heyi is the biggest contender for the position of the East Palace now, if you get this wealth and jade seal, then let alone our Great Xia Kingdom, even Huaguo and the surrounding small countries are all in your pocket. Do you want to get such an exciting thing? ”

"Yes." Jiang Tong was straightforward, and he didn't hide anything about it, "As a prince, I have the ability to compete for the throne." Why don't you let such temptations go? Don't say it's me, even my fifth brother is on the road early in the morning and sends people everywhere to look for you. And there's—"

He suddenly touched the teacup and said no more.

"What else?"

"You want to know?"

Qu Youying raised her eyebrows, "It's all at this point, is there anything else you don't want to know?" ”

"Except for the people of the Great Xia Kingdom, I have received a secret report that the people of the Hua Kingdom have begun to act."

"Huaguo?"

The Great Xia Kingdom and the Hua Kingdom were originally the two largest countries in this land.

A hundred years ago, the Emperor of Hua launched a war against the Great Xia Kingdom, disrupting the peace that had been maintained all along.

It is said that the war was supposed to be a complete victory for Hua, but for some reason, the night before the war, the emperor of Huaguo was found dead in the camp.

Hua Guo lost its supporters, and its combat power plummeted, and it was finally defeated by the Great Xia Kingdom.

Originally, Hua Guo was defeated and would become a subordinate country of the Great Xia Kingdom, but it is said that at that time, the national teacher of the Hua Kingdom used a strange method to make the Hua Kingdom a hidden danger that the Great Xia Kingdom did not dare to move at will although it was defeated.

At this point, Huaguo closed the country and recuperated from his injuries. And the Xia Kingdom grew alone.

However, there are still a few small countries that are dissatisfied with the Great Xia Kingdom and refuse to belong, and coupled with the special terrain there, the Great Xia Kingdom cannot attack in one fell swoop, so it has become a stalemate today.

"Since the defeat of the Chinese people a hundred years ago, there have been people lurking in all corners of our dynasty, in order to wait for the opportunity to fight, steal the secret report of our dynasty, so that Huaguo can come out of the mountains again."

"Isn't that a common thing? I've read a lot of them in my book. At the end of the story, some succeeded, and some failed. ”

"But as far as I know, the third prince of Huaguo has been hiding in my dynasty with another identity since he was a child, and now that the red bead has been rumored, this prince has already begun to act."

"Then do you know the identity of this prince?"

Facing Qu Youying's revealing eyes, Jiang Tong slapped his fan and covered the place below his nose, "This is a secret, how can I tell you?" ”

Qu Youying gave him a "don't say pull down" expression, sat up straight, and yawned.

"I'm sleepy, if you're okay, just go, don't disturb my rest."

"Okay, you go to bed first, and we'll eat together at night."

Jiang Tong left very decisively, Qu Youying closed the door, thought about it and was not at ease, and moved the table and chair to block the door.

"Alright."

After doing this, she turned to go to sleep.

But she said it was sleeping, but she couldn't sleep at all.

Because Jiang Tong had never said anything about Huaguo before, he deliberately said the three princes today.

She wouldn't think that it was because of Hongzhu's incident that he said it.

He said that this three princes must have some deep meaning.

But for what he said, her heart moved slightly, as if she thought of something, but she didn't dare to think of anything.

I tossed and turned in bed for an afternoon before I fell asleep in a blur.

At dusk, Jiang Tong appeared at the door on time and knocked on the door very politely.

"Xiaoying, come out for dinner, or do I ask someone to bring it to your room?"

"No, I'll come out to eat."

She didn't want to be in the same room with this man alone, so she got up and dressed, and then planned to remove the table and chairs blocked by the doorway.

But when she walked over and looked, she was stunned.

There was nothing at the door, and the tables and chairs were well placed in their original positions.

That is, while she was asleep, someone came in.

The first thing she thought of was Jiang Tong, who came over angrily, opened the door, and roared, "Who told you to come into my room casually!" I obviously blocked the door with a table and chairs, how come the table and chairs together and return to their original places! ”

When Jiang Tong saw her, he was stunned at first, and then shook his head with a smile,

"No, no. All afternoon, I have been drinking tea and listening to the drama in the teahouse opposite, if you don't believe it, you can go and ask. ”

"You can be your subordinate. For example, Mu Yu. ”

"No, no, no." Jiang Tong continued to deny, "You blocked the door of the house with a table and chair, this is for safety. Since I took the initiative to come to you, I will not let you have any misunderstanding about me, so at most I will send someone to keep an eye on you, and I will not sneak into your private place and do something that makes you disgusted with me. Second, since the other party has put the table and chair back in their original places, it means that the other party is telling you that even if I appear, you don't have to be nervous, someone will definitely protect you in the dark. ”

Qu Youying originally thought that Jiang Tong had done this, but after he explained this, she had an epiphany.

"Someone is secretly protecting me?"

There are only two people around her who can do this.

One is a small book, and the other is a wooden candle.

Xiaoshu will listen to her and stay in Qufu to protect her family.

Although Mu Jingzhu also agreed, judging from his nervousness about her, he would definitely catch up after luring away the enemy.

He didn't show up for a long time, was he afraid that with her, she would be in danger?

Jiang Tong looked at her and smiled slightly, "Who did you think of?" ”

"Hmph." Qu Youying glanced at him, stepped out of the room, and walked downstairs without closing the door, "Let's go, I'm hungry." ”

Jiang Tong looked at her back, then at the open door, and finally didn't go in to investigate anything.

He closed the door for her before heading downstairs.

After the two of them left, a person came out of the dark corner, he stared at the direction in which the two left, and gently pushed Qu Youying's room open.

Qu Youying slaughtered Jiang Tong fiercely downstairs, ate a big meal, and went to the night market on the street for a while, and then went back to the room to sleep.

She and Jiang Tong are separated at the stairs, she lives on the second floor, and he lives on the third floor.

Then she opened the door and went in, and as soon as she entered, she smelled a faint smell of orchids wafting in the air.

She paused, took the fire fold from her waist, walked to the table, and lit the oil lamp.

The faint yellow light illuminated the small room, and also lengthened the shadows of the people in the room.

A petite figure was hers, and another tall figure held a long sword in his hand, and the sword landed precisely on Qu Youying's neck.

"Smell the orchid scent in this room, you must have been here for a while, right? How? Didn't find what you were looking for? ”

The man didn't speak, but plucked the white magnolia hairpin between Qu Youying's hair with his other hand.

"What do you do? Give it back. ”

Qu Youying noticed that the man had taken away her most precious hairpin, and she didn't care that the long sword was still on her neck, so she turned around.

Because of the speed of the movement, the blade of the sword grazed her white and tender neck, leaving a bloody mark on it.

"Give it back!"

Qu Youying stretched out his hand to him, the man was covered and couldn't see his face clearly, but those eyes stared at Qu Youying without blinking.

"Dumb? I know you're here to find the red beads, but how could I take something so important with me? Even if you go out with it, you will definitely not put it on your body. But you're the first to come to me directly, so I can consider giving you one, but only if you give me back my mother's hairpin. ”

"You say it's your mother's thing?" The man directly ignored Hongzhu and asked word by word, "So you are really my sister's daughter?" ”

"Sister?" Qu Youying reacted instantly, "You are, you are—"

The word uncle is stuck in the throat, and I can't send it out, because I am happy and because I am unfamiliar.

"I'm your uncle."

He lowered his sword and pulled down the black cloth from his face, revealing a face in his forties.

Although there is a terrible scar on his face, the familiarity revealed in his facial features and eyebrows is exactly the same as that of Xin Niang.

But Qu Youying has encountered a lot of liars.

So she was not as happy as Xin Yang, but suddenly stepped forward and reached out to touch his face back and forth.

Touching Xin Yang's face, he pulled Qu Youying's hand away with a thick face, covered his face and took a few steps back.

"Y-What are you doing?"

"Oh. Touch your face to see if it has been replaced. Qu Youying rubbed her hands indifferently and explained, "After all, there are many things to change your skin, and I can't recognize you as my uncle just because you look like my mother." ”

"That's right." Xin Yang nodded and said, "However, you and your sister really look alike, when you entered the door, I thought my sister was back." ”

"Me? Resemble? ”

Qu Youying seemed to notice something, suddenly ran to the table in front of the window, picked up the bronze mirror and looked at her face.

Her face, her original disguise, was erased at some point.

What is left now is what she is. If you want to chat about "Bone Phase" with more like-minded people, follow "WeChat" or "Chat with more book friends about your favorite books."
