Chapter 415: Encountering the "Old Man"

Ming Xiu on the side was holding an elegant porcelain vase, put it down again, turned his eyes to look at Chu Nian, the two looked at each other, and saw Chu Nian carefully wrapping Xia Zi's medicated ankle with gauze, and then looked at the father and daughter, "You plan to live here in the future?" ”

The father and daughter glanced at each other, nodded and said: "Thank you for the care of Your Highness and the county lord these days, our father and daughter are already very grateful to be able to work under the son of the world now, and if they really go to Daliang...... In the end, it is still too far away from Xichu. ”

The shopkeeper's eyes showed a look of reluctance, "We have enough trouble for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the county lord, don't dare to trouble the two of you anymore." ”

Hearing this, Chu Nian and the two glanced at each other, and saw Ming Xiu nodding lightly and said, "We respect your choice." ”

After that, Chu Nian just tied the gauze on Xia Zi's leg into a beautiful bow, and seeing Xia Zi's eyes dyed with a little joy, Chu Nian got up happily, "Take care of yourself, let's leave." ”

In front of Chu Nian and Ming Xiu, there is still a problem.

After Wuchen was reprimanded by Prince Wu, he came to look for Xia Zi's father and daughter, Chu Nian and Ming Xiu had already gone far away from the prince's mansion, and when he heard the news, Wuchen was so angry that he scolded the street, but soon he thought that Chu Nian and Ming Xiu couldn't get out of the city now, so he sneaked out of the palace with a happy face and went straight to the outskirts of the city.

At the same time, on the outskirts of the city, there was a bonfire burning on the grass by the stream, Chu Nian and Ming Xiu sat side by side in front of the bonfire, and the four secret guards on the side were busy preparing their dinner - when Chu Nian and Ming Xiu went to Prince Wu's mansion, the secret guards caught fish in the creek, and they were busy all afternoon, and finally caught a few fat fish, which just happened to keep a few people from going hungry.

Ming Xiu's long and narrow eyes looked fixedly at the bonfire in front of him, his thin lips pursed, and he didn't know what he was thinking. At night, a slight cool wind in the wild penetrated into people's bodies, Chu Nian put his hands next to the bonfire and roasted for a while, then looked sideways at Ming Xiu beside him, "If we can't return to the capital within half a month, I'm afraid that the Chu family will fall into chaos." ”

Hearing this, Ming Xiu nodded slightly, indicating his understanding, and then said lightly with thin lips: "Then how should we get out of the city now?" ”

That's a problem. Chu Nian half-lowered his eyes and thought, now that there is no Xia Zi father and daughter, the burden on them is not too much, but the key problem is because of the closure of the city, or rather, there is also the existence of a city lord of Wu.

But the Ice Water Heavenly Clothes could never be returned to the Wu City Lord, and this was not their thing originally, but the mysterious illusionist stole it from the hands of Xichu Yue Ling, probably to prevent Mr. Liang from studying the Ice Water Heavenly Clothes. Indeed, if there was no such first piece of ice water clothes, there would be no second, third, or even more pieces in the future, and they would not be able to resist the illusion, so they could only let Qinghe invade the three countries step by step.

"Hmm~ It's so fragrant, the craftsmanship is good."

When the two of them were stunned, the voice of Wuchen suddenly came from the side, Chu Nian looked sideways slightly, and saw that Wuchen didn't know when he appeared on her side, and what he was holding in his hand was the fish that the secret guards had just grilled.

Chu Nian was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly looked towards a few secret guards, and saw that the four people who were originally busy were falling to the ground side by side at this moment, "Don't panic, I'll just see that they are too tired and tell them to sleep." ”

Hearing this, Chu Nian sighed helplessly, and Ming Xiu on the side had a slight flash in his eyes, and then saw Wuchen take a bite of the grilled fish, raised his head and said, "Why did you leave so quickly, I still have something to tell you." ”

Ming Xiu glanced at Chu Nian sideways and didn't speak, Chu Nian frowned slightly, "The little girl is grateful to the prince for helping to settle Xia Zi's father and daughter, but this is not of any help to us, if the prince wants to ask us for something in exchange, I'm afraid it won't work." ”

When these words fell, Wuchen's face froze, and after a while, he stuffed the remaining fish meat in his hand into his mouth with resentment as if he had been hit, and then stood up, clapped his palms, and looked at Chu Nian aggrievedly: "In your eyes, is my dignified prince such a villain?" ”

Chu Nian frowned and didn't speak, at this time, Wuchen looked at Ming Xiu on the side, and suddenly laughed, before he said, "You are in trouble now, right?" ”

The next two people were sideways, looking at Wuchen suspiciously, and saw Wuchen smiling proudly next to Chu Nian and sitting down again, "The recent lockdown is estimated to be closed for a long time, you two want to go back to Daliang, it's difficult, uncle, if they can't find you, I'm afraid they won't give up." ”

Chu Nian glanced at Wuchen with some surprise, and when he turned his eyes, he saw Ming Xiu narrowing a pair of narrow eyes slightly, "Since the prince knows the identities of the two of us, why don't you just arrest us and give it to your uncle?" ”

As soon as these words came out, he saw Wuchen glance at Ming Xiu, and in an instant, he retracted his gaze and sneered: "Do you really think that he is my uncle, so our family should be friendly with their family?" In terms of it, he was only a mere city lord, and my father was a prince, and at some times, my father even disdained to associate with him. ”

Chu Nian raised his eyebrows slightly, "I haven't asked yet, since the prince and the city lord of Wu are brothers, why is the city lord of Wu not the prince?" ”

"That's a long story." Wuchen touched his chin, "In our barbarian clan, even if it is the king's own brother, he may not be able to be a prince, just like I obviously have a brother, but my brother is not qualified to inherit my father's throne, I am the orthodox son, this is all because of the difference between the concubines......"

Speaking of this, Chu Nianhe understood what Wuchen meant, but he was afraid that the lord of Wucheng was only from the concubine of the barbarian king, just like Wuchen and his brother who had just married, I am afraid that his brother was from the concubine of Prince Wu. In this way, Chu Nian suddenly felt a little sympathetic to Wuchen, if Wuchen was the second son but also the son of the world, he was afraid that he would be regarded as a thorn in the side from childhood to adulthood.

As if feeling Chu Nian's compassionate gaze, Wuchen turned his head sideways, and waved his hand again and again: "Don't think about it, there's no such thing, my father only has two wives, my mother and my aunt, the relationship between my mother and my aunt is very good, and the relationship between me and my brother is also very good!" ”

Seeing that Chu Nian's eyes were still full of disbelief, Wuchen lowered his head a little dejectedly, "Really...... Actually, there are other reasons why my father has a bad relationship with the lord of Wucheng. ”

When these words fell, I saw Chu Nian and Ming Xiu glance at each other, and looked at Wuchen inquiringly, Wuchen was also generous, only to see him simply sit on the grass, that is, wipe a mouthful of food full of oil and water, and then said: "Actually, now our barbarian is in a similar situation to your Da Liang, but we are more serious, and the royal family of our barbarian is basically the main battle faction." ”

Chu Nian frowned, she naturally knew this, if the barbarian king was not the main battle faction, then Da Liang and the barbarian would not be in a state of war now.

Seeing Wuchen, he suddenly grinned and said: "But we barbarians also have anti-war factions, such as my father and me, we are all too lazy people to fight." ”

As if seeing the confusion flashing in Chu Nian's eyes, Wu Chen continued: "The upper echelons were confused by that bullshit illusionist, and the main battle faction listened to him, so my father simply invited someone from the people and told me and my brother to learn illusion, but my brother's talent is not very good, after learning for so long, he didn't even learn the most basic illusion, so our master simply gave up my brother, but in my opinion, my master's illusion is not very good, at least not as good as yours." ”

Saying that, Wuchen raised his eyes to look at Chu Nian, and saw that the other party's eyes were full of astonishment, at this moment Chu Nian's heart was not small, she really didn't expect that not all of the barbarians were controlled by Qinghe, on the contrary, there were also sensible beings among the barbarians, but it was a pity......

Chu Nian let out a sigh of relief, since the war had begun, it would be difficult to stop.

"Sigh and do what." Wuchen very unceremoniously picked up another fish roasted on the bonfire, "If there is a problem, solve it, and enjoy life if there is no problem, where are there so many sad things." ”

Chu Nian unexpectedly felt that Wuchen's heart was too big and really admirable, she got up, patted the dust off her clothes, turned her eyes to look at the slumped guards on the side, and saw Wuchen raise his head and grin at Chu Nian, "Don't unravel their illusions yet, I haven't finished my words yet." ”

Hearing this, Chu Nian frowned slightly, at this time, she caught a glimpse of Ming Xiu who seemed to be asleep next to the bonfire, and suddenly her face sank, as if she felt Chu Nian's anger, Wuchen hurriedly waved her hand and said, "Don't be angry first, if he doesn't sleep, I can't tell you some things, right?" ”

Chu Nian stood aside expressionlessly, "I suggest that the prince have something to say quickly, and after he finishes speaking, he also asks the prince to leave early." ”

Seeing that Chu Nian was really angry, Wu Chen's face suddenly stiffened, and he hurriedly smiled and said, "Look at you, why are you so angry, we can be regarded as acquaintances, right?" ”

Chu Nian pursed her red lips and didn't speak, her eyes fell on the sleeping face of Ming Xiu on the side, it seemed that the person was doing something sweet, under the warm bonfire, a cold and hard outline seemed to be a little gentle, and her thin lips were slightly raised, as if she didn't know that there were still people in the outside world worried about him.

At the end, Chu Nian had to sigh, "What's the matter with you, tell me quickly." ”

"What ...... me," the dark inky eyes turned around in their sockets before smiling and saying, "I'm here to ask you to help me solve something." ”

Chu Nian narrowed his eyes slightly, saying that there were people who had no intentions, but now he asked them to help with things?

"Don't get me wrong, it's my brother and my sister-in-law's business, I can't help them in this matter, but you're different, even if you provoke my father, as long as I find a way to send you out of the city, my father won't be able to do anything to you."

When these words fell, he saw Chu Nian's eyes light up, if it was Wuchen, maybe he could really help them solve the problem of not being able to go back to Da Liang now, as long as this problem could be solved, other things would not be a problem.

But Chu Nian also had some doubts in her heart, she looked sideways slightly, looked at Wuchen, and said suspiciously: "The 'sister-in-law' you said won't be the person your brother wants to marry, right?" ”

Seeing Wuchen suddenly grinned, "You are really smart." ”

Seeing that Chu Nian seemed to be a little shaken, Wuchen hurriedly said: "Actually, it's not a big deal, that is, my brother has had a childhood sweetheart who loves each other since he was a child, but because my sister-in-law's family is the main battle faction, my father simply asked my brother to marry the current ......."
