Chapter 271: Killing

Si Qi walked to Chenguang's side, leaned down, and whispered a few words to Chenguang.

Chenguang's face did not change, she thought calmly for a while, then nodded, and said:

"Got it."

After a pause, she added, "You go and follow them, and then come back to me if you have something to do." ”

Si Qi nodded in response and walked quickly.

As soon as Si Qi left, Zheng Shuyu came in again and said to Chenguang:

"Your Highness, Yang Ding has been imprisoned, and I also ordered Xue E, before His Highness did not instruct, if Yang Ding had an accident, he was the only one to ask."

"Have you met Xue E?"

"He's outside, does His Highness want to interrogate him?"

"What did he ask you?"

Zheng Shuyu was stunned for a moment, thought for a while, and replied: "Xue E saw that the minister asked Yang Ding to be imprisoned, and quietly asked His Royal Highness what Yang Ding had interrogated, and the minister said that Yang Ding had a hard mouth and did not respect His Highness, so he didn't say anything, His Royal Highness was tired all the way, and planned to try it again tomorrow, so he temporarily took Yang Ding into custody, and Xue E didn't ask anything else." ”

Chenguang glanced at him with a smile: "You are quite clever!" ”

Zheng Shuyu smiled.

"How many troops can Xue E mobilize?" Chenguang asked with a smile.

Zheng Shuyu didn't understand why she asked this, but when she suddenly asked about the troops, Zheng Shuyu's heart couldn't help but become nervous and vigilant, thought for a moment, and replied:

"Before the war, Pengzhou could mobilize about 3,000 troops, but now, it should be less than 3,000."

Chenguang nodded, was silent for a while, and said with a smile: "I'm tired, you go and let Xue E wait for a while, I want to rest for a while." Xiaoxi, you pick a yard in this state pastoral mansion. ”

She glanced at Chang Xi.

Chang Xi smiled slightly and responded.

Zheng Shuyu felt that the atmosphere was a little weird, but seeing that Chenguang was mysterious and didn't want to say more, he didn't dare to ask more, and accompanied Chang Xi.

Xue E got the order to wait for him, he was confused, according to his thoughts, he wanted to deal with Yang Ding's matter privately, and Lord Feng should deal with him immediately. Could it really be because Yang Ding was disgusted with the Feng Ming people's regime like him, so he didn't say anything.

He couldn't figure it out, so he became more and more restless.

He was crowded in the study with his subordinates and doormen, and he couldn't sit still, so he had to walk around on the ground with his hands behind his back.

When it was almost dark, Xia Zhoucheng finally returned.

Xue E, who finally sat down, saw him come back, immediately stood up, took two steps forward to greet him, and asked urgently:

"How? What did the prince say? ”

Xia Zhoucheng glanced around, and felt that there were too many people listening with ears in the study, so he should have said that he should know with Xue E alone, he stepped forward and leaned over, and whispered a few words in Xue E's ear.

Xue E's heart thumped, and he was a little caught off guard, he was shocked, and asked Xia Zhou Cheng with a surprised expression:

"Is this really what the prince meant?"

"That's what the prince said, straightforward and clear." Xia Zhoucheng replied, paused, lowered his voice, and added, "The prince also said that the rivers and mountains of South Vietnam all depend on the adults, as long as the adults are successful, the adults will be the great heroes who saved the South Yue country, and whatever the adults want, the prince will satisfy the adults." ”

Xue E frowned, thought for a while with a gloomy face, his eyes became gloomy, he gritted his teeth, and said viciously:

"Don't do it, don't do it! That's it! ”

……

Chang Xi chose a spacious and quiet courtyard in the state pastoral mansion.

Xue E didn't say much, he quickly asked people to clean it up, and Chenguang moved in.

Washing her hair in the winter is a kind of torture for Chenguang, but she still washes it, and after washing and wringing it, she kneels on the couch, hugs the big cat with the stove, wraps a thick quilt, shrinks into a small ball, and listens to Changxi read to her in a trembling voice.

Fire Dance sat behind her, twisting her hair over and over again with a long cloth towel.

The room was quiet, except for Chang Xi's pleasant and hypnotic sound of reading, until the pink gauze curtain was lifted, and a tall figure in a dark robe walked in from the outside, with a sinister aura that he tried to hide, like a sharp dagger that could cut through human skin at any time.

Chang Xi saw the person coming clearly, her originally gentle face turned cold, and she snorted heavily.

Chenguang looked over and happily called, "Xiaoqian! ”

The person who came was Si Qian.

Si Qian stepped forward quickly, knelt on one knee, and called softly:

"Your Highness."

Chenguang bent his eyebrows and smiled.

Chang Xi rolled her eyes at Si Qian, who was well-mannered.

"Xiaoxi, since Xiaoqian is here, it means that I guessed correctly!" Chenguang said to Chang Xi with a smile.

Chang Xi withdrew her cold gaze from Si Qian, and when she looked at the morning light again, she smiled:

"His Royal Highness Xiaoxi is the smartest!"

Si Qian glanced at him and frowned, he still hated Chang Xi's oily and undignified temperament as always.

"How did Xiao Qian know I was here?" Chenguang asked with a grin.

"His subordinates have sent people to monitor Xue E in Pengzhou for a long time, but Xue E is very careful and never contacts Jiang Hongsheng. This time, His Royal Highness came to Pengzhou, Xue E panicked, and was eager to ask Jiang Hongsheng for advice, and the person in charge of tracking had an opportunity. His subordinates had been in Luohua County before, and when he heard that His Highness had arrived in Qihua County, he came to see His Highness. Si Qian replied softly.

Jiang Hongsheng, surnamed Jiang, this is the surname of the Nanyue royal family.

"This Jiang Hongsheng, what is the origin?" Chenguang asked.

"He is the seventeenth brother of the Nanyue Emperor, the child of a concubine of the king of Yijun, when he attacked Hanjing, he was not in Hanjing, he escaped, after the capture of Hanjing by the Feng Ming Kingdom, he contacted several fathers' old departments in the north, because the Jiang clan was the only one left, and those old departments elected him to form the Nanyue Society, which made a storm in the north for a while, and was dispersed by Chang Xi with his troops, and the remnants escorted Jiang Hongsheng to the south. I followed them to the vicinity of Pengzhou and they disappeared, and later I heard that Jiang Hongsheng's mother's maiden family had some connection with Pengzhou Prefecture Mu Xue E. ”

Chenguang was silent for a long time, and then laughed loudly:

"I thought it was a dragon foal and a phoenix chick that I left behind, it turned out to be a concubine from the county king's mansion, heh!" She shook her head contemptuously.

"The subordinates have already explained to Si Yi, and tonight, the subordinates will stay here to protect His Highness." Si Qian said.

"The people who guard His Highness have me, what are you staying here for?" Chang Xi spoke stiffly and said unhappily.

Si Qian glanced at him and said lightly: "I don't worry about relying on your skills to protect Your Highness." ”

Chang Xi was furious.

"Xiao Qian," Chenguang opened his mouth with a smile and said calmly, "You go first, come back after you deal with it, I'll wait for you." ”

"Your Highness......" Si frowned, he was reluctant to go, even if he knew that she was capable of coping, he was not willing to put her in danger.

"Go ahead." The morning light commanded in a faint voice.

Si Qian hesitated for a moment, although his sword eyebrows became tighter and tighter, he still obeyed Chenguang's order, responded softly, and then retreated.

Chang Xi pursed her lips and raised her delicate eyebrows disdainfully, Si Qian's honest and obedient temperament is the most useless.
