"What, borrowing?"

The same surprise as the five people of the Yuelai Inn were Luo Qingluan and Xiao Yuqi.

Unexpectedly, the result of Xiao Tianci's unhappiness and grievances towards Nangong Wan'er was to hear such a surprising and inexplicable news. After hearing about the whole process, the doubts in the hearts of the two of them increased, and there was a feeling that things were getting more and more serious.

Luo Qingluan's conjecture before was just that Nangong Wan'er had something in mind, either she wanted to take revenge on anyone, or she just wanted to destroy this trick. But when she listened to what Xiao Tianci said, she felt very puzzled.

"The princess said, let you lend her five hundred people?" Luo Qingluan chewed on the meaning.

"At the beginning, there were more than five hundred, and the third princess asked for two thousand when she opened her mouth, but how could this king get so much?"

Xiao Tianci was a little embarrassed, but he forced himself to argue: "It's not my father!" This king is not so bold to raise his own soldiers, our Dongwan's rules are different from your Xichu, not to mention this king, even if it is the emperor's brother, there are only a thousand people in his hands at most. ”

Xiao Yuqi nodded: "Yes, what the third brother said is true." ”

Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, Dongwan has been different from the ancestral system of Western Chu, and the imperial power and strength are absolutely concentrated in the hands of the emperor. Whether it is the crown prince or the kings, or even the secretary of the military department, etc., they cannot be in charge of the handsome seal of the military talisman, and the military attaches everywhere are all from the Son of Heaven and are absolutely loyal.

Even if the security of the provinces is maintained, the prince's mansion only has 1,000 private soldiers, and each royal family must not exceed 500, so as to avoid turmoil and rebellion.

Of course, these are all on the surface, and the various forces and courtiers in Dongwan will more or less exceed the regulations. However, on the surface, the private soldiers who can enjoy the court's fortune are all recorded, and the rest of the recruits can only be put on various names and placed everywhere, but they are not visible.

Hearing that Nangong Wan'er was going to ask Xiao Tianci to borrow five hundred people, Xiao Yuqi asked, "Did the princess say that what are you borrowing so many people for?" ”

"This ......"

Xiao Tianci said: "I also asked, these five hundred people are not a small number after all, but I am afraid that it will have to be approved by my father." But the third princess asked me not to say it, it was lent to her in private, and she also said that it was just to look good when welcoming the relatives, to protect safety by the way, and to escort the dowry, I can only listen, who knows if it's true or not. ”

Luo Qingluan said: "I'm afraid it's an excuse." If it is a marriage, His Majesty will think about it, and it will definitely not be the princess's turn to worry about it, and the manpower will definitely be enough. But the princess actually cried, saying that His Majesty was not good to her, and it seemed that she was deliberately making excuses, but she was actually trying to find someone from the third prince. ”

If he hadn't heard about Nangong Wan'er's deeds, Xiao Tianci would have really thought that she was a princess who was bullied and not favored. Now that he was framed by her and almost made a big mistake, he finally understood the saying that people should not be disgraced.

"I was forced to be helpless, and I couldn't help it if I wanted to refuse, so I could only come back and think about it."

Xiao Tianci had a bitter face, and now that he thinks about it, he is still a little afraid: "You don't know, at that time in the carriage, she used a hairpin against her throat!" If I don't agree, she will really stab her, and wrongly say that I want to do wrong, I really ...... How did you get such a woman? ”

Luo Qingluan smiled slightly and teased: "Didn't the third prince fall in love with the third princess at first sight? How did it change so quickly? ”

Heart? It's too late for him to hide now.

All kinds of handles were grasped in Luo Qingluan's hands, and Xiao Tianci was miserable: "Princess Chu, don't tease me." Said okay, I'll help you deal with the princess, you promised to help me cure the hidden disease, this is about my man's dignity, don't lie to me. ”

"Princess Chu is true to her word, if you hadn't made such a fuss, there would be no today!"

Xiao Yuqi said in a deep voice: "Since it has happened, the most important thing at present is to solve such a thing." The palace also didn't expect that a good marriage would become like this, and now the father and emperor already know about it, and the palace is also preparing for the marriage, only five months later, it will be a big wedding, you must figure it out before this, otherwise it will ......"

Otherwise, Dongwan really wants to marry a problematic third princess and go back, and there will definitely be a big mess.

"Well, there's five months left, and time is running out."

Nangong Wan'er was silent for a year, and she didn't know what force she had caught up with, what she was going to do, and she dared to steal the treasures of the North Vietnamese royal family. The conspiracy behind this is definitely not small, even beyond my imagination. Luo Qingluan was thinking that he had to find out who Nangong Wan'er was in contact with as soon as possible and what the purpose was, so as to prevent things from happening.

Thinking of this, Luo Qingluan looked at Xiao Tianci with a smile: "Don't worry, Third Prince, you will tell the Third Princess next time that the person is ready and can lend it to her at any time." ”

"Huh?" Xiao Tianci was taken aback.

"The manpower is naturally prepared by me, I only need to say that it is the person of the third prince, understand?" Luo Qingluan's eyes flashed, and the whole person seemed confident.

On the other side, Lingxi City, North County.

There was no time to delay, as the main decision maker of this descent from the mountain, Long Kai decided that he must cure Mrs. Guan.

"Even if there is any conspiracy, should I be afraid?"

Long Kai's face was solemn, revealing a sense of majesty: "How does the head of the sect usually teach you?" Do you retreat when something happens? Even if the old lady Guan was indeed secretly handed, but because of this, since she was encountered, we have to cure her. ”

Chen Hu fixed his head and said loudly: "Yes, what Uncle Shi said makes sense, if you don't know about the old lady, we won't be entangled, how can we go to the capital of Xichu to find the senior brother?" ”

slapped him on the head hard, Long Ning said angrily: "Erhu, you know silver and silver!" You don't know what my dad is talking about. What my dad said was saving people's lives, do you understand, such a stupid brain? ”

"Senior sister, you hit me again?"

"Shouldn't you be beaten?"

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, Leng Li raised his hand to stop: "Okay, Ning'er, don't bully Erhu, I'm afraid that his head will be broken by you usually, and you still complain that he is stupid." ”

Seeing that the usually cold and elegant senior brother actually made a joke, Long Ning couldn't help but feel ashamed and blushed: "Senior brother, you make fun of me." ”

"Don't make trouble, what Uncle Shi said is the most important thing, and the little junior brother will go to the City Lord's Mansion with Uncle Shi later. Aren't you worried? ”

When he mentioned this, Long Ning reacted, and hurriedly ran over and hugged Mu Xiaosu's arm: "Xiao Su, tell Senior Sister about it, are you sure that Old Madam Guan will be cured?" ”

"Senior sister, don't hold it so tightly."

Mu Xiaosu was suddenly held, only to feel that there was a soft thing squeezed on his arm, where did he not know what it was? He was so panicked that he didn't dare to push it away, and he didn't dare to move, and his face turned red instantly.

Unconsciously, Long Ning leaned over and glanced at him: "What, it's not Xiaoyu today, it's Xiao Su?" ”

"Little fish?" Mu Xiaosu's face suddenly changed.

Seeing that Long Kai glared at him fiercely, Long Ning reacted and hurriedly interrupted: "No, it's nothing, Xiao Su, you heard it wrong, I mean you." Finally letting go of his arm, Long Ning took a step back and said unnaturally: "I just want to know if you have a way to cure Old Madam Guan." ”

His eyes were empty for a few seconds before Mu Xiaosu reacted: "It should be ...... Save, right? ”

……

In the castle lord's mansion.

When Mu Xiaosu and Long Kai came to Ci'an Hall again, Guan Hou was waiting here.

As soon as he saw the two of them, Zhang Ping said: "You guys are finally here, and the county guard is here today, just to see how you treat the old lady." If it is cured, it will be grateful, but if it is deceived by the county guard, it will be a whip. ”

"Hmm~~" Guan Hou's voice sounded: "Steward Zhang, how did you talk to the doctor!" ”

"Yes, yes, Lord Gunner."

One sang with a red face and the other with a white face, Zhang Ping immediately nodded and bowed, and then looked at the two Mu Xiaosu, and changed his face again: "Hurry up and show the old lady, the old lady was uncomfortable last night, if she doesn't get better, I'm afraid it's really ......."

Before he finished speaking, Long Kai had already walked in with a calm face, Guan Hou frowned, then stretched out again and walked in. Mu Xiaosu didn't seem to understand anything, and followed behind Long Kai without saying a word.

"Why are the windows closed again?" As soon as he entered, he felt dark and dreary, and Mu Xiaosu said: "The old lady's room needs to be ventilated more, and the window should be opened quickly." ”

The maid was just about to move, but Guan Hou had already spoken: "Slow! If you can cure the old lady, the county will give you a thousand taels of silver, but what if you can't cure it? ”

Long Kai's face sank, and he said coldly: "Buddha is destined to be a person, medicine and medicine do not die of diseases, and no doctor has ever dared to say that he can absolutely cure the patient." Isn't it too difficult for adults to say this? ”

It's really aggrieved, if it weren't for the lack of entanglement, would he be facing such a situation? A mere county guard of the northern county dared to be arrogant in front of him, if he waited to find his nephew, see who dared to look down on him!

Mu Xiaosu also immediately said: "Master Guan, what my uncle said makes sense, even if we don't treat the old lady today, the old lady won't live for two days, if we try to make a move, maybe there will be a chance of life." ”

"Hey, that's not what you said yesterday!"

Zhang Ping pointed at Mu Xiaosu, his trembling fingers pointed at Long Kai again, and said loudly: "When you came to see the old lady yesterday, you clearly said that you would definitely be cured, but you just had to find medicine." Why did it change again today, aren't you lying? The losing Lord Guan looked forward to it all night, thinking that the old lady was saved, but you ......"

"Yesterday...... Yesterday and today are naturally different! I, I said to open the window to breathe in to avoid the dirt from entering the body...... But, you're just afraid of another night, right? The old lady counts...... If it can't be cured, it will also be suffocated to death by you. ”

Mu Xiaosu's crisp voice was sweet, with a little complaint, and Guan Hou's face was hot for a while. If it is clear that he is put to death, how can he follow the advice of a doctor?

"I won't mention yesterday's incident, but now that Jiaci is seriously ill, please take a look at the two of you." Guan Houpi said with a smile: "If it can be cured, this county will be grateful!" ”

Ignoring the threat in these words, Long Kai held back the unhappiness and anger in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "Xiao Su, you go and show the old lady." ”

Nodding, Mu Xiaosu walked over, and the waiting girl immediately picked up the corner of the curtain and poked out the old lady's wrist. After just a moment of pulse, Mu Xiaosu became more and more aware of it, turned his head to look at Guan Hou, and said in a timid voice: "Lord County Shou, the old lady is not sick, but ...... It was someone in the house who killed the old lady. ”

"What did you say?" With a pang in his heart, Guan Hou stared at Mu Xiaosu, and a fine light suddenly shot out from his pupils.
