Chapter Twenty-Five: The Envoy of the Xia Kingdom
This night is destined to be an unquiet night. But it was a pleasant night for Bai Yiyan, the day's plan had been accomplished, no matter whether the assassination operation was successful or not tonight, Yuwen Mochi had no possibility of turning over. And tomorrow will be her fifteenth birthday, and after that, she will be a big girl who can marry, and she will soon be able to fly away with Brother Qingyun.
And Bai Mingxi, the Marquis of Dingyuan, who was originally scheduled to arrive tonight, encountered heavy rain on the road and overwhelmed the road, so he had to arrive a few days later than expected. Although you will miss Bai Yiyan's ceremony, it is estimated that you can arrive in a day or two after the touch.
At this time, in the room of the envoy of Xia Guo in the State Guest House, a handsome young man was changing clothes under the service of his attendants. The attendant persuaded him again: "Master, do you really plan to go at night?" That's not good. If someone finds out, it's a big problem. ”
The white-skinned, handsome young man has just passed the age of bundling his hair, with long eyebrows like willows and a body like a jade tree. He said to the attendant with some impatience: "Don't talk nonsense, when have the things you decided and I have changed." Yin Quan, have you checked the matter I asked you to investigate? The location has been confirmed, right? ”
The man named Yin Quan replied, "Confirmed," while sorting out his clothes. But master, I still think this is too risky, what if something happens? Otherwise, you might as well not go. ”
The young man with a pair of beautiful peach blossom eyes looked at the bronze mirror, turned his head and showed a sly smile to Yin Quan: "Anla, can't I handle such a thing?" Besides, if I can't handle it, won't I still have you? ”
Yin Quan was about to cry when he heard this. It seems that if he is caught at night, he will have to bear the blame himself.
And Yuwen Mochi was waiting restlessly in the lobby of the State Guest House, his mind was focused on what happened during the day today, and he was thinking hard about the way to get rid of it. Now he still has to receive the envoys of the Xia State here, and this time the Xia Kingdom did not report the names of the envoys in advance, and he didn't know which official was coming, so he would get along well or not. Yuwen Mochi felt irritable in his heart.
With a sound of "Xia State envoy arrive~", Dayong's officials stood solemnly under the leadership of Yuwen Mochi and collectively greeted this mysterious envoy. The young man dressed in white strode in with the officials of the Xia Kingdom like a meteor, showed a just right elegant smile, and arched his hand to the officials of Dayong: "Xia Guoyou'an envoy Xie Weining has seen you." ”
Dayong's officials gasped one after another, it turned out that this beautiful young man was actually the favorite youngest son of Xia Emperor Xie Hao, the Ninth Emperor Prince Xie Weining, why was he an envoy this time?
It is said that although this Nine Emperor Princes are not very old, they were born with extraordinary talent and extraordinary intelligence, not only have the ability to never forget, but also used tricks to earn a large part of the Huns. What's even more peculiar is that the color of his left eye is brown, while the color of his right eye is amber, which is called the gold and silver demon pupil. Legend has it that people with such pupils are all reincarnated inhumans, and many people in the Xia Kingdom say that the Nine Emperor Princes are demons and will bring great disasters. But Emperor Xia firmly believed that this child was a blessing from God to Xia Guo, and even gave him the name Weining from the "Huaide Weining, Zongzi Weicheng" in "Daya Board", which shows that he has high expectations.
Many people speculate that Emperor Xia was reluctant to establish a crown prince, all in order to wait for Xie Weining to grow up and pass on the throne to him. But doesn't it mean that this prince's health has not been very healthy, so Emperor Xia is reluctant to let him go far away? How could he still be entrusted with the important task of being an envoy of You'an, and travel thousands of miles to Yonghua City?
Yuwen Mochi didn't expect that the person who came was Xie Weining, although this person was a few years younger than him, but he heard that he was not an easy person to deal with, and it would be extremely difficult for the two sides to talk about the conditions after he came, and he felt that his head was bigger. However, he still put on a kind smile: "Dayong Daxing Lizhi Chengyu Wen Mochi welcomes the arrival of the envoys of the Xia Kingdom on behalf of our emperor. Thank you, messenger, for your hard work. Tonight, I will first wash the dust for you, we will not get drunk and not return. Please~"
Xie Weining also smiled and walked hand in hand with Yuwen Mochi to the main seat: "I have long heard that the King of Xiling of your country is a bold and capable person, and he is also very graceful. ”
The two of them laughed and sat on the main seat, and the dinner at the State Guest House officially began. At this time, Wu Wei and Qiu Shaoze were already ambushed around the main hall of the State Guest House, just waiting for the opportunity to make a move.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors, Xie Weining staggered to his feet: "Lord Lizhicheng, I'll go first to make it convenient, and you continue to drink." ”
Xie Weining, supported by Yin Quan, walked out of the hall and turned to the back of the State Guest House. Qiu Shaoze and Wu Wei made a gesture, and the two only waited for Xie Weining to come back from the place of reincarnation. As a result, the two waited left and right on the roof and didn't see Xie Weining come back, and after a long time, a small guy from the guest house came over, saying that You'an had drunk too much, and he felt that he had a headache so he rested first, and let others feel free.
When Qiu Shaoze and Wu Wei heard this, they felt that this was a big deal. Now that Xie Weining is not here, if they are assassinated directly, then anyone can see that their assassination target is Yuwen Mochi. This is too different from the original plan, and I wonder if there will be any bad consequences of doing so. The two of them discussed it with gestures, and decided to go back and ask Bai Qingyun first. So the two of them quietly withdrew from the guest house with thirty shadow guards.
At this time, Xie Weining, who was supposed to rest in the room, was no longer in the room. He changed into a tight-fitting night suit and disappeared into the night with Yin Quan, who was also dressed in the same outfit.
Bai Yiyan was busy all day, and he was not lightly tired, but he still insisted on waiting for Bai Qingyun's news, holding a book and sitting under the window while reading and waiting. Biluan Bi Kite didn't hear her flip through the book for a long time, and when she walked over to take a look, she found that she was already tired and asleep. Biluan Bi Kite knew that she would be busy with the ceremony tomorrow, so she persuaded her to go to bed and rest. Biluan was still in charge of keeping vigil for her at the door, while Bi Kite stayed behind to guard the yard after everyone went back to rest.
Bi Kite suddenly felt a little itchy on the back of her neck, but she didn't expect that this summer was coming to an end, and there were such powerful insects. She rubbed her eyes, felt that her eyelids were unusually heavy, and wanted to rest against the wall, but somehow she fell asleep.
At this time, a man in black lying on the wall quietly asked another: "This one is also lying down, right?" The other nodded, and the two entered over the wall. After Biluan was also put down, looking at the room without lights, Xie Weining, who was dressed in night clothes, decided not to smoke and went in directly. He turned to the second man in black and said, "Yin Quan, I'll go in now." You just keep watch in the yard, be careful, if there is anything unusual, whistle the news. ”
After speaking, Xie Weining cautiously dodged into Bai Yiyan's room. Bai Yiyan was sleeping soundly, and he didn't even hear Xie Weining's soft snort when he hit his foot. Xie Weining cursed in his heart as he almost tripped over the table, and slowly pushed open the window, letting the watery moonlight shine in.
He walked to Bai Yiyan's bed by the moonlight. Leaned over and smiled wickedly. Softly, "Ugly girl, I said we would see each other again." ”
Bai Yiyan didn't notice it, she rushed to the outside sideways, the quilt was kicked aside by her, her long black hair was scattered over her shoulders, and a white bedrobe directly exposed her curves, and a pair of jade feet were exposed. She didn't sleep very peacefully, her black eyelashes fluttered slightly, her teeth bit her pink lower lip, and her two little hands restlessly rested on the side of the bed.
Xie Weining looked at her appearance and couldn't help but smile slightly. After all these years, she is still like this. He shook his hand in front of her eyes, and when he saw that she was completely unresponsive, he was completely relieved and sat directly on the edge of her bed. Xie Weining's hand floated on Bai Yiyan's face, gently outlining her outline, but not touching her. He muttered to himself: "I didn't expect you to grow so big, you didn't look good when you were a child, you really get uglier and uglier the longer you get." I don't know if it's still fierce, Yuwen Mochi is also unlucky, and he wants to marry you. ”
Bai Yiyan suddenly twisted, changed his position, and inadvertently put his right hand on Xie Weining's leg. Xie Weining was startled, and when he wanted to get up, he was afraid that he would wake Bai Yiyan up, so he had to helplessly reach out and take Bai Yiyan's restless paws aside. Bai Yiyan's sleeve slid down half with his movements, revealing Hao's wrist, and he suddenly saw the scar on her wrist that was so faint that it almost disappeared, such a small tooth mark, which he left on it back then.
Xie Weining's heart trembled, why, after a short period of coexistence, he couldn't forget it for so many years? Is it because I owe her? But she also bit him at the time, so will she be as unforgettable as herself? Xie Weining thought wildly.
He looked at Bai Yiyan's delicate side face, as if there was still a trace of her unique fragrance, his heart moved, he slowly leaned over, held his breath, leaned over and kissed her face gently.
Xie Weining straightened up, his heart was full of satisfaction, he took out something from his arms, put it on the inside of Bai Yiyan's bedside, and then looked at Bai Yiyan gently, and said to her gently: "Ugly girl, there will be no time in the future." ”
At this time, Xie Weining suddenly heard the voice of a partridge, which was the voice of Yin Quan reporting the news. Xie Weining jumped out of the wide open window, and then quickly disappeared outside the courtyard wall.
When Bai Qingyun knocked on the door outside the courtyard gate, he heard the sound of a partridge, he immediately became alert, and without waiting for someone to open the door, he went directly into the courtyard, and he found that there was no one in the courtyard, and the room was pitch black. By the moonlight, he saw that Bi Lu was leaning against the wall, and Bi Luan was asleep in the doorway. He shook Biluan awake with an arrow and asked her, "What about you girls?" Biluan was still in a daze, and she didn't even see who the person who came, but she instinctively replied, "Isn't the girl sleeping in the house?" ”
Bai Qingyun was not at ease, and gently pushed the door into the house. Looking at Bai Yiyan sleeping on the bed, there was nothing abnormal, and I didn't want to alarm her. He closed the window for her and stepped back out.
Bi Luan came to her senses a little at this moment, and hurriedly asked Bai Qingyun what was wrong. Bai Qingyun asked her to wake up Bi Kite first, and then come over to talk. Bi Kite fell into a deeper sleep, and Bi Luan pinched her hand to wake her up. Bai Qingyun saw that the two of them were awake, and asked them what happened tonight and if they saw any suspicious characters. Biluan and Bikite said that they didn't see it, but they just felt an itch on their bodies, and then they quickly fell asleep. Bai Qingyun knew that someone had mixed hemp boiling and scattered it into a blowpipe, shot Biluan and Bi Kite, and then entered the courtyard. It is estimated that the thief had already retrieved the syringe after coming in, and when he heard him knocking on the door, the person had already left. Bai Qingyun asked the two of them about how long it had been since they fell asleep, and Biluan and Bi Kite looked at the missing moment, estimating that it would take less than half an hour. Bai Qingyun thought that Bai Yiyan was not abnormal, and the thief came in for a short time, no matter what their purpose was, it was estimated that they would not have time to succeed. He raised her vigilance, and he searched outside the yard.
