Rubbing his eyebrows, Song Xingchen leaned back in his chair, thinking about the clues he had gotten in the past few days, and felt more and more that something big was going to happen.

Although Song Xingchen has been working hard to expand his power, after all, he is not as powerful as those who have been planning for decades, or even started to lay out from the previous generation.

"The emperor's heart is sick, the third prince has been abolished, the nine princes of the Western Zhou Kingdom have entered Beijing, the eldest prince has changed, and the second brother-in-law ......" Song Xingchen connected these things together one by one, and the more she thought about it, the more frightened she became, and she always felt that there was a connection between these things, but there was no evidence for a while, she just wanted to reason, and she didn't dare to determine the authenticity.

After Strawberry entered the study, he saw Song Xingchen in a daze.

After setting up the food box, Strawberry came behind Song Xingchen and massaged her shoulders.

"Miss Meizi came here just now, and she should have been standing outside the door for a while, and the slave maid stepped forward to talk, but Miss Meizi said that it was okay and left, but the slave always felt that Miss Meizi was a little wrong." Strawberry whispered.

"Plum?" Song Xingchen, who was thinking about things, raised his eyebrows, "She should just want to talk to me, and I'll go to her when I'm free tomorrow." ”

Song Xingchen didn't think that Song Keymei would have something important to look for her, otherwise Song Keymei would not have left without seeing her face, how did she know that Song Keymei was really annoying.

"Miss Meizi's father and mother are almost here, you pay more attention, I'm afraid that my mother has been too busy recently, so I neglected this matter." Song Xingchen patted the back of Strawberry's hand and signaled that she could stop, "I remember that Uncle Village Chief likes to drink, you go to the warehouse to pick a few jars and send them over, and say hello to the kitchen, don't neglect the guests." ”

"The slave has written it down." Strawberry nodded, and when he heard Song Xingchen say this, he didn't take Song Keymei's matter to heart.

"You and Apple look at the other things, when the Song family was poor, Meizi treated me like a sister, and the village chief's uncle and aunt also treated me well, so I can't let them feel that living here is not as easy as they like." Song Xingchen took the soup that had just been filled with strawberries, and after taking two sips, he continued: "I don't have to serve here, you also go to rest early, you still have to be busy these days." ”

"To see the young lady get married, the slave is happy no matter how busy she is." Strawberry covered his mouth and laughed.

"Well, after I get married, I will marry you too, and it will not be too young to be reborn, it's time to start a family." Song Xingchen quipped.

"Miss!" Strawberry stamped her foot and ran out blushing.

"This skin is still too thin, I have to continue to cultivate." Song Xingchen shook his head and laughed, then picked up the ledger again.

We can only be in a defensive state, then we can't delay the business matters, there is money to attract more talents, Song Xingchen is convinced that money can make ghosts grind.

The night, as scheduled, was as black as ink, and a crescent moon hung in the sky, shining with a little starlight.

As soon as Song Xingchen returned to the room, he found that the position of the teapot had been changed, and his eyes searched around, but he didn't see any figure, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.

"It's not a shame to be a person of what a year, and you still play peek-a-boo." Song Xingchen snorted, leaned on the edge of the door frame, and said with his arms around his chest: "I'll count to three, if you don't come out again, then I'll leave." ”

Song Xingchen played with his fingers, and the bad one began to count down, "Three, two, one......"

As soon as Song Xingchen spit out a word, his face changed instantly, and he subconsciously wanted to push open the door with his backhand and escape.

However, there were a few more black-clothed people in the room, that is, there were also black-clothed people on the left and right sides of Song Xingchen, and soon there were several long swords on her neck.

If Song Xingchen really wants to escape, she can hide in the space, but so many people in black will see it, even if Song Xingchen wants to sneak attack in the space, it is not easy, she must not let anyone know this secret.

There was a cold feeling in his neck, but Song Xingchen calmed down, looking at the man in black who was sitting at the table leisurely and refilling the cup, there was anger in his eyes.

"It turns out that the imperial heir of the Western Zhou Kingdom is also a young person, and he ran to a woman's room in the middle of the night who was not out of the cabinet, which is really respectable." Song Xingchen sneered, thinking about the way to get out.

Because Yelang would always come to her room at night, Song Xingchen asked the secret guards to guard the position a little farther away, especially when she was not in the room, there was no one to guard here, which was also the reason why Zhou Ding and others could take advantage of it.

Zhou Ding said disdainfully: "A woman who has not been out of the cabinet, who has a private meeting with a man every night, is really debauched, and in our Western Zhou Kingdom, she must be immersed in a pig cage." ”

Song Xingchen narrowed his eyes, and knew that Zhou Ding had been spying on her for not a day or two.

"The Nine Emperor Princes are really as rumored, they favor the county lord, and they know everything about the county lord, but it's a pity that in the eyes of the county lord, the Nine Emperor Princes, you and the fiancé of the county lord are not of the same level at all, so the county lord has no interest." Song Xingchen moved his body slightly, making himself more comfortable to stand, and calculated that the man in black would not want her life now.

Seeing Song Xingchen's appearance without the slightest panic, Zhou Ding's eyes full of anger gradually calmed down, and he really became a little interested in Song Xingchen.

"This prince has indeed taken a fancy to you, although you are no longer innocent, but whoever makes this prince look at you pleasing to the eye, as long as you hand over the cement formula to this prince, a side concubine position can still be given to you." Zhou Ding opened his mouth confidently, with a tone of grace.

"Phew!" Song Xingchen rolled his eyes indecently, pointed to his temples and said, "Are you sick in the brain?" If you are sick, hurry up and get treated! Don't say I don't know what you're talking about, and even if I do, I won't give it to you, okay? Which green onion are you, run to me and put garlic in front of me. ”

"Don't toast, don't eat, eat and drink!" Zhou Ding slapped the table angrily, with murderous anger in his eyes, "Since the county lord is unwilling to cooperate, then don't blame me for being unkind, a delicate beauty was cut off her limbs, and it feels distressing to think about it." ”

In the face of Zhou Ding's threat, Song Xingchen frowned slightly, but the action of fiddling with the corners of his clothes did not stop, as if it was a move to relieve tension.

Zhou Ding saw that she didn't answer, so he sneered: "This prince's patience is limited, you had better cooperate obediently, otherwise the sword in the hands of these people will not be polite." ”

"I have a question for the Nine Emperors, and I hope the Nine Emperors will solve their doubts." Song Xingchen rolled his eyes and asked.

"You ask." Zhou Dingyi waved his hand and said impatiently: "But this prince may not necessarily answer." ”

Song Xingchen rolled her eyes again, she didn't plan to ask for an answer, she was just delaying time.

"I heard that the Nine Emperors have visited my eldest prince, but what is the agreement?" Song Xingchen asked without fear of death.

Zhou Ding's eyes narrowed, his gaze shot coldly at Song Xingchen, and then laughed: "What? Your Song family took refuge in Zhou Feng, but are you still worried about the faction of the eldest prince? ”

Song Xingchen chuckled unhurriedly and annoyedly, swept away the long sword around her neck with one hand, and pushed the other one away a little, but he was not in a hurry to reply.

Shaking his neck, Song Xingchen sighed comfortably, "It's not fun to be driven by someone's neck, I don't want to experience it again in my life." ”

"You dare to ignore this prince!" Zhou Ding said angrily.

"The Nine Emperors are angry, after all, this is the Song family, if the people in the mansion are alarmed, the whereabouts of the Nine Emperors will be revealed, presumably the Nine Emperors should not have reported to my Emperor His Majesty, so they came here to catch up with the county lord, right?" Song Xingchen looked like 'I'm good for you', glanced at the long sword that was resting on his neck again, but this time he didn't do it again.

The anger on Zhou Ding's body became heavier and heavier, but his voice was lowered, obviously knowing that Song Xingchen had secret guards by his side, and he didn't want to cause trouble.

"This is the prince's business, and you don't need to worry about it. As long as you hand over the cement formula, this prince will let you go and not pursue your rudeness, otherwise don't blame this prince for being polite. Zhou Ding's breath calmed down a little, and he looked at Song Xingchen coldly and said: "As long as you are in the hands of this prince, your people will not dare to block the way of this prince, and they will keep secrets for this prince for your life, right?" ”

"Despicable." Song Xingchen scolded in a low voice, his eyes drooped slightly, and he sneered.

"Tell me, where is the cement square?" Zhou Ding really lost his patience, because a man in black gave him a look, and someone came outside.

"That's not something I made, how would I know." Song Xingchen spread his hands, looked at Zhou Ding with a 'sincere' gaze, suddenly smiled, and asked, "Nine Emperor Princes, how much silver are you worth?" ”

Zhou Ding was stunned for a moment, obviously he didn't expect Song Xingchen to ask like this.

"There are many princes in the Western Zhou Kingdom, and they are all ranked ninth, so it shouldn't be very valuable." Song Xingchen talked to himself, fiddling with his fingers and said, "Alas! It's really sad for the Nine Emperors, it's not a valuable item, so I lost money this time. ”

What do you mean by that? You dare to humiliate this prince! Zhou Dingluo stood up, completely ignoring Song Xingchen's second half of the sentence.

The afterglow swept to Zhou Ding, who was striding towards him, and the smile in Song Xingchen's eyes became stronger, but he said: "I know, the Nine Emperors are not easy, and the weak in this world can survive in a place like the palace that eats people and does not spit out bones, which is also admirable." Although the Nine Emperors have a great stain on your personality, you can't hide the flaws, in short, you are a poor worm with a noble status, an ugly soul who can only wear a mask. ”

Zhou Ding was pampered by the Western Zhou Emperor since he was a child, except for flattering the Emperor of the Western Zhou Kingdom, no one dared to talk to him like this, how could he not be angry?

"I'm going to kill you!" Zhou Ding angrily pulled out his attendant's sword, and hurried towards Song Xingchen.

"Hmph, you also have this ability, you need the help of your subordinates to kill a woman who is powerless, otherwise it is not certain who will kill who first." Song Xingchen pretended to be annoyed and shouted.

Sure enough, Zhou Ding put down the long sword he raised, and shouted to the two secret guards: "You let her go, I have to Ling Chi this woman who doesn't know the height of the sky!"

The dark guard has always only obeyed orders, and when he heard Zhou Ding's words at this moment, he withdrew his long sword without hesitation, and Fang Song Xingchen was free.

However, these secret guards did not leave, but guarded the positions of the doors and windows separately, not only to give Song Xingchen a chance to escape, but also to prevent people from outside from coming in.
