Chapter 475: Harbouring Sin
Xiao Yuan walked in the Jade King's Mansion, everyone would stare at her, and some people's eyes swept her from head to toe, making her feel that her hairs stood on end.
"Ke'er, why do you look at me so strangely?" Xiao Yuan asked in a low voice.
Ning Ke'er couldn't help but sneer when she heard Xiao Yuan ask like this, "Because you are the first woman that the prince brought back to the mansion." ”
After Xiao Yuan heard this, her cheeks instantly turned red, that day, she fell asleep in a daze after taking a sip of tea, and woke up to this palace, and at that time, in addition to Xiao Er, there were two tables of people, according to Ning Keer, those princes were the sons in blue.
When it came to dinner, Xiao Yuan still didn't see Xia Longyu come back, so he wanted to report his safety to his family.
Xiao Yuan didn't know that her letter would bring a lot of trouble to Xia Longyu.
Summer King's Palace.
A man dressed in a bright yellow robe, with his hair tied up with a crown of feathers, and his seemingly gentle face was as cold as frost.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, this is a letter intercepted from the Jade King's Mansion." The dark guard handed him a dove.
He took out the letter paper, unfolded it, but his cold eyes were dyed with a smile, and then the corners of his mouth hooked, "Go and tell my father that there are enemy spies in the Jade Palace." ”
After the dark guard left, he raised his head and laughed, Xia Longyu, you are finally folded in my hand!
He is His Royal Highness Xia Yinhu, the prince of Xia Kingdom, Xia Longyu's half-brother, at first, they have caused a lot of discussion among the ministers in the palace because of their names.
People in the court are saying that only the true dragon son can be established as the prince, and the father and the emperor prefer the mother concubine, so he was appointed as the prince by the way, but there is only one homonym for the word "tiger" in his Xia Yinhu's name, and Xia Longyu's name clearly carries the word "dragon".
It is precisely because of this that he has always been unstable in his position as the prince, and there are always doubtful people.
The only way now is to get rid of Xia Longyu in order to keep him as the prince of Xia Yinhu forever.
This side, the Jade King's Mansion.
Xiao Kite was bathing and changing clothes, Ning Keer didn't even knock on the door, and hurriedly broke in.
"Ahh Xiao Yuan was so shocked that she soaked her whole body in the water, she looked at Ning Ke'er with a blushing face, "Ke'er, what are you doing?" ”
"It's too late to explain, you get dressed and come with me." Ning Ke'er changed her previous gentle attitude, and she reached out rudely to pull Xiao Kite up from the water.
In this way, in a whirlwind of the world, Xiao Yuan got dressed with a blank face, and was dragged out of the door by Ning Keer before she even had time to sort out her wet hair.
There was a burst of footsteps from the front door of the palace, Ning Ke'er originally wanted to go out from the front door, but now she had to change it, dragging Xiao Kite to the back mountain.
As soon as the two of them left, Xia Yinhu rushed into the Jade King's Mansion with his soldiers.
"Someone, search for me!" Xia Yinhu looked at the subordinates of the Jade King's Mansion and ordered the soldiers behind him to start searching.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, I don't know what crime the Jade King's Mansion has committed, so you have to go to such great lengths to bring the troops in person." A vicissitudes of sound came into everyone's ears.
Xia Yinhu stopped and looked over.
I saw a gray-haired old man walking over with a cane, don't look at him on crutches, as long as you look closely, you can see that his steps are light, and every step is hard and powerful.
"Elder Er, His Royal Highness was ordered by his father to thoroughly investigate the Jade King's Mansion." After speaking, Xia Yinhu took out the holy decree from his arms, which was exactly a holy decree that he ordered to ask the emperor Xia Fuling to follow.
The content of the holy decree is that someone wrote that the Jade King's Mansion harbored the people of Ningguo, and the Jade King not only had the crime of fornicating with the enemy country, but also the crime of harboring, so the matter should be thoroughly investigated.
The white-haired old man, that is, after receiving the holy decree, glanced at the content, it was indeed written by the emperor himself, "His Royal Highness the Prince, the prince is not in the mansion, if you want to search, please wait for the prince to come back." ”
Er Lao handed over the holy decree to the people around him, his tone was cold, and he glanced at Xia Yinhu fearlessly.
When Xia Yinhu heard this, the corners of his mouth hooked and snorted coldly, it is impossible to wait for Xia Longyu to come back, it is already good for Xia Longyu to come back.
……
Fengling Town.
As soon as Xia Longyu and the servant Shen Zhen left the inn, they were surrounded by a group of black-clothed people.
"Childe?" Shen Ji looked at these people with a solemn face, his heart hung in his throat, if he was the only one, he could have escaped, but now, with Xia Longyu, everything would be difficult to say.
Originally, today, Xia Longyu was to investigate the collusion between the county magistrate of Fengling Town and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to embezzle the official food of the imperial court, but who knew that the results did not come out, but revealed his whereabouts.
"Well, it's fine." Xia Longyu played with the handle of the wheelchair, and glanced at a few people around him with a pair of eyes.
Hearing Xia Longyu's words, Shen Zhen's expression changed, and he stood beside him seriously.
"Xia Longyu, this time, see how you escape!" One of the men in black said viciously.
"This king has never wanted to escape, let the horse come!" The movement in Xia Longyu's hands stopped, and his deep eyes stared at their shoulders.
Seeing this, several of them glanced at each other and rushed towards Xia Longyu and the others.
Seeing this, Shen Zhen pulled out his sword to resist it, one person wrapped around Shen Zhen, and the rest went towards Xia Longyu.
"Did I tell you that this king is not easy to mess with?" Xia Longyu said coldly, slapped the wheelchair hard, and the wheelchair flew up, taking him a step back.
Suddenly, a silver light appeared, and more than a dozen silver needles shot out from the hidden compartment under the handle of the wheelchair, piercing straight at the black-clothed people.
It's just that the silver needle enters the body, and for them, it's just the pain of leech sucking.
"Haha, just with these silver needles, you want to subdue us, it's really whimsical." The man in black looked at Xia Longyu with a sneer, and then forced the silver needle out with his internal force.
Xia Longyu didn't answer, just looked at them meaningfully and smiled.
Just when several people rushed towards Xia Longyu again, only one step away, their bodies went weak and fell to their knees in front of Xia Longyu.
"The silver needle can't be cured, I don't know how this poison is?" Xia Longyu showed a harmless smile.
"You ......" Before he finished speaking, several men in black fell to the ground and died at the same time.
On the other side, Shen Zhen also killed the man in black, he groped around the man in black, found nothing, squatted down and looked through the body of the man in black, until he saw an obvious "tiger head" tattoo on the wrist of the man in black.
"Childe, you watch." Shen Ji grabbed the wrist of the man in black and presented it in front of Xia Longyu.
When Xia Longyu saw this tattoo, he was no longer surprised, and sighed deeply, "It's really him." ”
This "tiger head" tattoo is a unique symbol of the "Tiger Fang", a killer organization in the Xia Kingdom.
In the Xia Kingdom, not counting some killer organizations that kill people for money, the two largest killer organizations are "Tiger Fang" and "Dragon Pavilion", the biggest difference between these two organizations is that "Tiger Fang" will kill Wuhu people for money, while "Dragon Pavilion" is all about assassinating people who should be killed.
