If you don't say anything, Xue Ji has a bright mind in other things, and he is dull in these things, as soon as these words came out, Shen Yurong's face turned even redder, and he hurriedly stretched out his hand to hold him: "I mean, I may ......"

Xue Ji sweated suddenly: "You say, what's wrong?" ”

Shen Yurong lowered his head, and his voice became more and more inaudible: "Maybe I'm pregnant." ”

Xue Ji was stunned, looking at the person's gaze sluggish, and for a while, as if in disbelief, he cautiously reached out to probe the person's lower abdomen.

"Why is the husband so bitter?" Shen Yurong held his arm, looked up and saw the sad face of the person, and couldn't help but feel terrified in his heart.

Xue Ji looked at her, then at her abdomen, retracted his hand, and his tone was not at a loss: "I don't even have a famous official position, how can I have a ......?"

Shen Yurong listened to his emotion, but he understood, breathed a sigh of relief, leaned on him and said softly: "What is this, it will be there soon." ”

Xue Ji still felt that he was only twenty years old, and he was still a young man, but he didn't want to be a father so soon, how could he not be nervous for the first time? Let Chai Hu pay more attention to his wife's food, and instructed the quicksand to invite the doctor to come and see tomorrow, and originally planned to rest early when he was tired, but he couldn't sleep after such a toss, and his mind was chaotic, and he couldn't calm down for half the night.

The next day, Xue Ji didn't go anywhere and waited for his wife to come, and the doctor came to see it with a smile on his face and said happy: "Although it is less than two months, it should be right." ”

Xue Ji still had a stunned look on his face: "Is it Ximai?" ”

provoked the old doctor to stroke Bai Huahua's beard and laughed: "No, what else can it be if it's not Ximai!" ”

Saying that, the old doctor packed up the medicine box, and secretly sighed that this son was still an innocent child, Xue Ji was still stunned and didn't move, Shen Yurong, as the head of the house, hurriedly stood up, let people pay the silver and give the reward, and ordered the maid next to him to send the quicksand to the door.

Xue Ji was still stunned and looked at the place where Doctor Fang Cai was sitting, and then looked up at Shen Yurong after a while, as if he hadn't come back to his senses yet. "Pregnant?"

Shen Yurong was amused by his stupid appearance, covered his mouth and sneered: "Yes, I am pregnant, and my husband is going to be a father!" ”

Since Shen Yurong was pregnant, Xue Ji only felt that the burden on his body was getting heavier and heavier, and he was even more serious about studying on weekdays, and he stayed up later and later at night. In the blink of an eye, it was late autumn, less than three days before Enke's exam, and coincidentally, I heard that King Ning had finished dealing with the mess in Shu County, and he went to the capital in these days.

——————

On the outskirts of Beijing, a group of people spurred their horses to hurry in the direction of the Chang'an City Gate, and dust rose behind them, blurring the dead wood on the side of the two roads.

The group of people who followed behind Qin Xu also carried a cart of mahogany boxes, which were all the Che's family wealth and account books swept out from Shu County.

The autumn wind hits the body, the sunset gradually sets, and at night it can be close to Chang'an City, and I don't know if I can rush back to the city when the lock is locked today. Qin Xu felt that the surroundings were a little gloomy, and he unconsciously kept an extra eye to look at both sides.

I crossed a stream, and the splash soaked my robe, but I still rushed forward. At night, the stars twinkle in the sky, and the flowing clouds swell along the wind, covering the bright starlight from time to time, but a bow moon is always hidden in the clouds and mist, and the dignity is not visible.

I heard a shout from the west: "Ho! ”

Qin Xu hurriedly reined in his horse, and at a glance, more than ten masked black-clothed figures rushed over, bowed down one by one and clenched the handle of the knife, and then looked back at the cart of 'stolen goods' behind him, and understood.

"Hold on to the car!" Qin Xu shouted, and the attendants behind him drew their knives with brushes, placing a cart of mahogany boxes in the middle.

The man in black was attracted to the attention, and he rushed towards the things on the car, waving his sword at the attendant led by Qin Xu, but in a moment, the sound of soldiers colliding filled the forest.

Xu Yan stayed by Qin Xu's side every step of the way, this was the first time he encountered this kind of dead robbery, and he couldn't help but worry in his heart: "Lord Wang, what should I do......

From time to time, Qin Xu blocked two swords to stop the sword light and sword shadow that swung at him, looked around, and said in a low voice: "The robbery on the car will be robbed, you will follow me in a while." ”

In the night, two lines of people killed red eyes, and the autumn grass everywhere was stained with blood, Qin Xu took advantage of a period of free time to break through the siege of the man in black, and whipped the mount under him fiercely.

Seeing this, Xu Yan didn't care about the cart of 'stolen goods', and hurriedly followed. The man in black behind him was pinned down by Qin Xu's people and it was difficult to chase, only to see that the man in charge of the leader drew a fire and threw it at the box on the car, and at this moment, he was stabbed by the person next to him. When he was about to do so, he forcibly released a beam of signal fireworks into the sky, until he collapsed in a pool of blood.

Xu Yan finally caught up with Qin Xu with great effort, and hurriedly asked, "Lord Wang, what about things?" Are we going home? ”

Qin Xu didn't have the leisure to answer him, and sped up again. It wasn't until the two of them rushed to Chang'an City in Luoluo that Qin Xu turned around and plunged into the alley on the side.

Xu Yan panted and beat the horse to keep up, and he was even more puzzled: "Lord Wang, this is not the way to go home!" ”

"We can't go back." Qin Xu finally slowed down a little and looked back at Xu Yan: "The fireworks just now are sending a letter, at this time, there must be someone ambushed in front of the door of my house, where can I go back." ”

Xu Yan was a little at a loss, and he could only follow Qin Xu through the streets and alleys at this time.

It's just that the person who laid the ambush is not stupid, how can he only hide in front of the mansion? Then he entered the city a little more south, and around the corner he killed a few men and swung his sword at the horse.

Qin Xu couldn't dodge, although he had tried his best to avoid his body, he still made a knife on his leg, and the blood flowed down his ankle, staining the boots on his feet red.

"Lord Wang!" Xu Yan was startled, and hurriedly drew his saber and copied it up, blocking the second knife that flew in.

Even though Xu Yan was guarding it, he still couldn't stop this well-trained dead soldier, Qin Xu thought quickly, looked at the sky in the south, and glanced at Xu Yan again. Xu Yan slapped a sword at the back of his horse, and the horse galloped forward with a long roar. Xu Yan blocked a few black-clothed people alone, and Qin Xu galloped towards the south of the city.

In fact, he didn't remember it very clearly, that is, he remembered that Shen Changqing had a house in the south of the city many years ago, and when he got to the place with his memory, he didn't care about what was written on the plaque on the door.

"Who?"

Coincidentally, this mansion is the house that Shen Changqing donated to Xue Ji. Just after dinner, Xue Ji was reading in the house, and the quicksand helped Shen Yurong to stroll in the courtyard, when he heard a sound from the wall, and faintly smelled the smell of blood, and the quicksand hurriedly blocked his wife behind him.

After not moving for a long time, Quicksand was frightened and frightened, and shouted towards the courtyard: "Butler! Come and have a look! ”

Wang Qu had already received Xue Ji's instructions to take good care of his wife at all times, and when he heard the voice, he came. "What's wrong, what's wrong?"

Quicksand cautiously pointed to the wall: "Like, it seems that someone ......"

Wang Qu was stunned, picked up the broom on the side and approached slowly, there was really a person by the wall! Hurriedly pointed at the person with a broom pole and shouted: "Who! ”

There was such a big movement outside, where could Xue Ji not hear it, and he lost the pen and ink scroll in his hand and came out.

When Wang Qu saw him come out, he hurriedly reported: "Master, there are people here. ”

Qin Xu was propped up by the wall and cautiously looked at the few people who came over, but he never made a sound, but when he saw Xue Ji, he was stunned, this person ...... How is it here?

Before he could ask, Xue Ji saw the person in the corner and was stunned.

"The king, the prince?" came back to his senses and hurriedly bowed to people: "Meet King Ning, why is the prince here?" ”

The few people behind him obviously didn't react, and after a while, Shen Yurong seemed to remember something, pulled Xue Ji's sleeve, and whispered: "My brother and he are old acquaintances." ”

Qin Xu frowned, the blood on his leg was still flowing, and he already felt a little dizzy. "I have a wound in my leg, ...... for me Stop calling the doctor, are there any bandages? ”

Xue Ji was startled, took another step forward, and really saw a pool of blood, but he turned around as soon as possible and asked the quicksand to escort his wife back. Later, Wang Qu carefully helped the person to the side room, married gauze and hemostatic medicine to bandage the person.

Xue Ji looked at the half-foot-long wound on his leg and the blood-soaked trouser legs, and felt stunned in his heart, but he knew that he shouldn't ask about things that shouldn't be asked, so he could only hold back, carefully looking at this strange temper and famous prince.

Qin Xu looked at the bandaged wound, and then looked at the person standing on the side: "Thank you." ”

Xue Ji saw that he had been covering the placket of his clothes, and there seemed to be something thick hidden in the placket, so he didn't dare to ask. Qin Xu looked at him for a long time and pulled it out by himself. "Che's account book, the people outside are here for this."

Xue Jiming didn't ask any more.

Seeing that he was so embarrassed, he probably hadn't eaten yet, so Xue Ji thought carefully and let the kitchen stew the soup with firewood, he paced back and forth in front of the door a few times, and remembered something again.

Xue Ji hurriedly threw it into the front hall, took the things that Shen Changqing gave him when he left Jiangling from the shelves on the side of the main hall, and returned to the wing room.

"Lord Wang, this is your thing, Brother Shen asked me to exchange it for you."

Qin Xu was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously took the dagger handed by Xue Ji, and some familiar past events unconsciously poured into his mind.

He ...... Did I tell you? ”

Xue Ji was a little confused when he heard what he said: "Brother Shen only said that it was the prince's thing, and asked the grass people to return it, but he didn't say anything about it." ”

I don't know why, Xue Ji actually noticed that Qin Xu had a trace of loss in his eyes.

"Thank you, the king will remember you."

Qin Xu thanked him and stopped talking. Xue Ji knows how to measure, and he knows how to measure too much, he doesn't ask anything, just sits on the side, and the whole room is silent.

But after a while, Wang Qu's hurried voice came from outside the door: "Master, master!" Come out of here! Outside the house, there are people outside the house! The man had a knife! ”

Xue Ji was shocked, looked back at the wound on the person's leg, and was shocked when he thought of the bloodstains he had just seen on the wall.

Something bad.
