Xu Yichen's appearance really scared off many people, but there were still some people who thought highly of themselves and didn't take his words to heart, but sent people to collect clues everywhere to investigate, and this check found Xia Yan's head.

That night, Xia Yan finished washing up and was ready to sleep.

"Anzhi, Tinglan, it's not too early, you should go to bed early." Xia Yan took the comb from Ting Lan's hand, "I'll just comb my hair myself, go and rest." ”

I thought that Tinglan would be ordered to retreat as before, but I didn't expect that she just responded and didn't make any other moves.

"Tinglan, is there anything else?" This abnormal behavior aroused Xia Yan's curiosity, "If you don't go to sleep, what are you doing standing?" ”

"Miss, Wai ......" Tinglan was about to answer, but was preemptively replied by Anzhi, "Miss, Tinglan is just a little tired today, and she hasn't come back to her senses for a while, and I hope that Miss will forgive her sins." ”

"It's okay, go to sleep, you won't have to help me wash up tomorrow morning, sleep a little longer."

"Miss Xie." After Anzhi saluted Xia Yan, she tugged at Tinglan's clothes and made a color on her.

Tinglan understood what Anzhi meant, hurriedly bowed and retreated, and came to the outside with Anzhi.

"Anzhi, why are you stopping me?" Ting Lan frowned and pointed to the roof, "There are a lot of people hidden on this roof, don't we have to tell Miss?" ”

"No, you don't." Anzhi made a silent gesture, "You be quiet, don't let the young lady hear it, it's not our fault to affect her sleep." ”

"Then the people on this roof...... Tinglan looked at the back room, "after all, this is the boudoir of the young lady, and it is not okay to be seen by outsiders." Anzhi, you take care of the young lady here, and I'll go up and clean up those people. ”

Saying that, Tinglan was about to open the door and leave, but was stopped by An Zhi again.

"Tinglan, you don't have to worry. I've seen it all, and the roof of this house is tightly sealed, and the tiles on it are just decorations, and even if you lift the tiles, you can only see a black wall, and you can't see the inside of the house at all. ”

"Then we're going to let those guys stay on the rooftop all night?" Tinglan frowned, "This is not safe, it is better to dispose of it as soon as possible." ”

"Okay Tinglan, I know you're good at kung fu, but your first priority is to protect Miss." Anzhi smiled lightly, "It's not our turn to worry about things outside. ”

"What do you mean by that?"

"Doesn't Your Highness live here?" An Zhi pointed in the direction of the east wing, "No. 1 must lead a large number of secret guards to guard here, so we don't have to worry about it at all." Let's just stay in the house, protect the young lady, and let her sleep peacefully. ”

An Zhi's words successfully persuaded Tinglan, she put away her desire to go out, and said with a smile: "Okay, I'll listen to you." ”

"Then please wait for the young lady to fall asleep, and then go to her house to guard." An Zhi took out a small incense burner from the cabinet, "In order to prevent Miss from being woken up at night, let's order some of my special soothing incense for her tonight to ensure that she can sleep well." ”

Anzhi lit incense and put it in Xia Yan's house, and after she went to sleep, the two worked together, one guarded the inner room, and the other watched the outhouse, and spent the first sleepless night after coming here.

It wasn't just Anzhi and Tinglan who stayed up all night, but also Number One and all the dark guards he led.

"Your Highness, last night we caught seven spies who wanted to sneak into Miss Xia Yan's room." Early the next morning, Number One knelt respectfully on the ground and reported to him the situation of the previous night.

"Did you find out?" Mu Fan had a cold face, so that people couldn't see joy and anger.

"Go back to Your Highness, find out." Number One frowned, and said with a somewhat complicated expression, "It's just...... It's just that these people were not sent by a master. ”

"The subordinates carefully interrogated the seven people, including the queen's people, the people from the Guogong Mansion, and the people from the Ministry of Officials. Although the masters are different, the purpose is the same, they are all here for the oranges of Miss Xia Yan's family. ”

"Tangerine?"

Seeing Mu Fan's frowns, No. 1 thought that he didn't know about Xia Yan's sale of oranges to the capital, so he explained: "Back to Your Highness, Miss Xia Yan's oranges are very popular in the capital, and almost all dignitaries and nobles are vying to buy them, so that they can only be sold in the form of auctions, and the most expensive one was sold for one hundred taels. Presumably, these people are greedy for this huge profit, and they want to find out the source of oranges, and plan to get a piece of the pie. ”

"Hmph, they think it's beautiful." Mu Fan snorted coldly, "If you want to move Ah Yan's things, they are also worthy?" ”

"Your Highness, what should we do with those people?"

"Keep it." Mu Fan lowered his head and thought for a moment, "Bring me all the people." ”

"Yes."

Number One stepped back, but after a while, he walked in with seven dejected men in black.

"Three...... Three Highnesses? As soon as he entered the house, a man in black recognized Mu Fan, knelt down with a "poof", and begged for mercy in a sharp voice, "The little one doesn't know that His Royal Highness is here, so he dares to offend, and I hope His Highness will spare his life." ”

Seeing this person kneeling, the other six people also rushed to kneel down and beg for mercy, for fear that it would be too late to beg for mercy and be killed by the angry Mu Fan.

Although these six people have never seen Mu Fan, who of the people living in Beijing has not heard of the name of Mu Bufan, the cold-faced king of Hades?

Legend has it that he once killed eight of his subordinates in one day, and said that if anyone dared to provoke him at will, he would destroy the whole family.

No. 1 looked at these people who were kneeling on the ground and begging for mercy, and he couldn't help but feel some contempt in his heart.

It is really a shame for the spy world to dare to be a spy with such courage.

In fact, No. 1 misunderstood them, because this was not a particularly important matter, so those people did not release professional spies, but just randomly arranged a few more capable subordinates to investigate the matter.

After all, a well-trained spy costs a lot. It must be used in the most critical places, and it usually takes a few points to even go out of the capital, let alone a remote small county like Qin County.

Not everyone is as wealthy as Mu Fan and has the support of an entire dark guard camp.

He really didn't care about the loss of a few secret guards.

It is precisely because of this that some of these seven people have seen Mu Fan, and this person is also someone Mu Fan knows.

"Princess, what a coincidence, let's meet again." Mu Fan had a dark face and sneered, "I haven't seen you for a few months, I don't know if the queen mother is in good health?" ”

"Back to ...... Back to His Royal Highness, I ask you to be concerned, the queen is all right, and a few days ago I said to the slave that I miss Your Highness a little. ”

"Then you're here to see me for her?"

"Yes...... Yes...... No...... It's not ......" The princess looked anxious, and he really didn't know how to answer.

"Is it or not?"

Mu Fan's anger frightened the prince and duke.

I saw him kowtowing one after another, without the slightest sign of stopping, "Your Highness...... Spare your life, Your Highness. Villain...... The villain did not come to see you, but at the behest of the queen, he investigated the origin of the oranges. The servant swore that he didn't know that His Highness was here before, and if he knew, he wouldn't dare to come here to offend His Highness if he gave the slave a hundred dares. ”

At this time, the prince was eager to beat up the six people behind him.

Of the seven, he was the last to come.

When he came, the six had already investigated the situation of the family, and swore that most of the people in the family were women and children, and that the only two adult men, one with no hands and the other with crippled legs and feet, would not pose any threat to them, and they could be assured of being bold.

The owner of these oranges is nothing more than a seven-year-old girl, what is there to be afraid of.

With their assurance, the prince did not investigate it in detail, but just followed their arrangement, and he was going to attack the girl that day.

But what they didn't expect was that this negligence made them meet the living Hades.

The prince has the heart to cry, and his reputation has been ruined in the hands of these fools.

"Alright, don't knock." Mu Fan showed a look of disgust, "Did you find anything?" ”

"Minions...... Minion...... The minions didn't find anything. The prince carefully observed Mu Fan's expression, wanting to see some clues from his face, so as to give him a satisfactory answer.

But the result was very disappointing to him, and on that flawless face, there was no second emotion except disgust.

There was no way, the prince could only rely on his years of experience in serving people to figure out Mu Fan's thoughts.

I saw him smile flatteringly: "Back to His Highness, the slave only found Qin County, and the clue was all broken, so I could only return in vain." ”

"Princess." Mu Fan looked at him expressionlessly, "Your trick is good." ”

"Thank you, Your Highness, for the compliment." was praised by Mu Fan, the prince's smiling eyes became a slit, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and he didn't forget to flatter him, "It's all His Highness's teaching." ”

"Huh." Mu Fan sneered, "I don't have the ability to teach you such a thing, yang and yin, betrayal for glory." People like you, with me, have only a dead end. ”

"Your Highness!" The whole body of the prince was frightened, and he kept kowtowing and begging for mercy, "Spare your life, Your Highness, the slave is not that kind of person, the slave ...... The master of the slave is only His Highness, and if you let the slave say anything, the slave will say anything. ”

"Really?"

"It's true, the slave has admired His Highness's demeanor for a long time, and he has wanted to serve you for a long time, but he has not been able to find a way. Today is really God's eye-opening, so that the slave has the opportunity to be loyal to His Highness, how can the slave miss it! As he spoke, he kowtowed a few more times, "What I just said is all the heartfelt words of the slave, if there is half a lie, the sky will thunder!" ”

"Well, you have a heart." Hearing the poisonous oath of the prince, Mu Fan nodded with satisfaction, "I'll give you a chance to be loyal to me." ”

As he spoke, he took out a delicate small bottle from his arms, poured out a red pill, and handed it to the prince, "Come, eat it." ”
