Chapter 054: Xun Lang's face
Qianqian . , the fastest update of the latest chapter of the Great Jin Official Maiden!
If he wasn't a king, the people around him would probably use the adjective "I can't even control myself" to describe him.
King Yan has five sons, which is quite rich among the princes, but these five sons are not in the palace of King Yan, they are all driven to various fiefdoms, and most of them are bitter and cold, one year the third prince fell ill and asked to return to Yanjing, but was ruthlessly refused.
The Nine Kings shook the bone fan, looked at the palace wall of Shili and said, "He is actually afraid that retribution will fall on him. β
Thirty years ago, the one who killed Emperor Wu with his own hands was King Yan. The pleasure at that time was exchanged for thirty years of nightmares, and he was suspicious of the people around him, and the closer he was, the more indifferent he became.
The white-faced coachman was silent, as if absent-minded.
Jiuwang closed his fan, looked at him, and the words he said were just blown away by the wind passing through the palace wall, and he couldn't hear it when he was far away: "Your whereabouts when you went to Liu's Mansion before, you didn't hide it well, the secret guards of Yanwang Palace seem to be suspicious of you, don't always choose a restaurant next time, and change places." β
The Nine Kings seem to be at ease in this Yan Palace, and the palace people are alienated and jealous of him, in fact, the Yan King will not let the Nine Kings step out of the palace gate at all, and the eyeliner in the palace is even more innumerable, and the Nine Kings will be strictly reported to the Yan King after a few bites of food today.
As the guard of the Nine Kings, the white-faced coachman enjoyed unusual treatment, and he was followed by the top secret guards of the Yanwang Palace wherever he went, so the white-faced coachman who knew it every time he went into the restaurant at the mouth of the alley, and sat and drank for a few hours in the most conspicuous window position on the second floor.
In fact, the white-faced coachman has already gone to Liu's mansion. Last time, he inadvertently saved Miss Nan, and this is the method he used.
When the white-faced coachman heard the lesson of the Nine Kings, he finally lowered his eyes: "My subordinates will change places next time." β
Jiuwang nodded, and even sighed: "King Yan has given me a kill order, as long as I want to leave the palace alone, I will be killed by the random arrows ambushed at the palace gate, it is really inconvenient for a long time." β
The white-faced coachman looked at the face of the Nine Kings, even if there was only a faint expression, it was immediately noticeable. That's why people can comprehend so many meanings with a single look and a subtle movement at the corner of their mouth.
The Nine Kings noticed the unusual gaze of the white-faced coachman, and he immediately responded, the coachman had no expression on his face regardless of joy or sorrow, only his eyes, which could occasionally convey some information.
Now the white-faced coachman's eyes are conveying a confused meaning.
The Nine Kings found it interesting, so they said, "Coachman, what are you looking at me doing?" β
This coachman has been cold-hearted for several years, could it be that he suddenly has the emotions of a mortal?
The white-faced coachman's eyes flickered, and he actually lowered his head and said, "My subordinates were thinking about how to avoid the secret guards of the Yan Palace, and I accidentally offended the prince, please forgive the prince." β
This lie is too levelless, but the key point is that the white-faced coachman not only showed confusion, but also lied for the first time.
There were very few things that the Nine Kings couldn't guess, but this time, he found that he really didn't understand the coachman's heart.
King Yan called the Nine Kings over at night, this is not new, there is almost nothing to do during this time, King Yan will let him see him, and even the third watch falls asleep in the middle of the night, and suddenly wakes up, and must also force the palace people to summon the Nine Kings.
It's just like deliberately tossing people.
The reason why the palace people of Yan Wanggong avoided the Nine Kings was because they couldn't figure out whether King Yan hated the Nine Kings or valued the Nine Kings, no matter which one it was, it was best for them to stay away, and they would be far away from trouble.
Fortunately, the Nine Kings did not rest this time, saving the trouble of changing clothes, and soon came to King Yan's bedroom.
King Yan sent the people out and said to the Nine Kings alone: "Just now, the old woman in Liu's Mansion actually sent someone to tell the widow that the maid she was in charge of guarding had run away. β
The expression of the Nine Kings was just the right amount of surprise: "Ran away?" How could this be? Liu's guard is so tight. β
King Yan's eyes showed a gloomy owl, and the words he said were even colder: "How long does the old woman think the widow will endure her?" Without her Liu family, the widow can also casually bring up a scholar family, be crowned an official and knighted, and the emperor will be rewarded, with these, anyone can become the most noble family in my Dayan. β
The eyes of the nine kings are cold, King Yan's view of the family is no longer the opinion of most people, three generations are nobles, a hundred years are the family, like the Liu family, forcibly pulled up, like a withered and empty shell, anyone can smash it with one punch.
King Yan used such a family to fight against the real noble family Nan Clan, even if the Nan family in Yanjing was destroyed, the children of the Nan family had already spread to the sixteen states, and some had already spread elsewhere, the Nan family could be destroyed, but the Nan family would live forever in the world.
But King Yan just wants to toss the Nan family, even if it is a withered empty shell, he is happy.
The Nine Kings shook the bone fan and did not speak.
King Yan looked at the Nine Kings, every time this kind of conversation was faced, he was faced with silence, but this time King Yan was a little annoyed.
"Nine Kings." He said, with a strong distrust in his voice, "I heard that when you entered the territory of Yan Kingdom, you didn't just bring the coachman with you, but there is such a thing?" β
The Nine Kings let out a faint "oh" and asked King Yan, "Who said that?" β
King Yan's eyes were gloomy and indifferent: "I heard that it was a woman, and together with the coachman, accompanied you into the Yan Kingdom." β
Jiuwang seemed to find it interesting and said, "Everyone in this world should know that none of the women around me are alive. β
King Yan glanced at him: "The widow also knows that it is true, so when he heard that there was a woman, the widow's reaction was extremely surprised." β
Jiuwang nodded: "So this rumor is obviously deliberately done by someone with a heart, just like before, someone deliberately passed on your information to King Yan." β
It is for the sake of their own unsightly interests that they deliberately promise some false benefits.
King Yan seemed suspicious, he frowned, remembering the news that Chen Guo deliberately sent before, saying that he learned that the Nine Kings would appear on the border of Yan Kingdom, so that King Yan should not miss this opportunity and eradicate this henchman in one fell swoop.
Among the five countries, the one who wants the nine kings to die the most, and the one who has the least scruples, is the king of Yan, the news sent by King Chen is like timely rain, the king of Yan has been preparing for a while, instead of everyone in the world to fight for the jade seal that I don't know where, it is better for him to kill the nine kings directly, and after breaking the thoughts of the people in the world, he will lead the Yan soldiers and set foot on the other four countries.
But the people on the border, after catching the Nine Kings and his gang, immediately sent a message to the King of Yan, the Nine Kings said that he left the jade seal in the underground palace of Chen many years ago, and when he wanted to get it, he was discovered by King Chen, and King Chen planned to hide the jade seal, and deliberately let the Nine Kings leave, so that he would die at the hands of other princes and kings, and King Chen could logically take out the jade seal and ascend the throne, and the other princes and kings would be flattened into rebels.
As soon as King Yan heard this sentence from the Nine Kings, he immediately understood that King Chen wanted to win both the world and the hearts of the people, and the dirty things were left to the other princes and kings, and this calculation was seamless.
King Yan immediately changed his mind and asked people to take down the Nine Kings and send them directly to Yanjing, so that he had the Nine Kings in his hands and King Chen had the jade seal in his hands, at least they could complement each other.
After the Nine Kings said this, they immediately reminded King Yan of King Chen's conspiracy again, and he knocked his hands tightly: "As soon as the widow's soldiers arrive, the little force in King Chen's hands will not be able to resist at all, and when the widow takes his city and head, he will know who is the master." β
Among the princes and kings, King Jin was tyrannical, King Yan killed, are the most unkind kings, in comparison, King Ji Wujun of Chen, because he succeeded to the throne young, so he was the most scheming, when he was in the State of Chen, he was forced to release the nine kings, but he hated in his heart, so he secretly revealed the whereabouts of the nine kings, and the purpose was still to kill the nine kings.
It is said that the monarch is unkind, but these princes and kings are obviously not fuel-efficient lamps.

Miss Nan ran back to her home and hugged her mother, Mrs. Nan, and cried. Mrs. Nan cried with joy when she saw her daughter come back, on the day Miss Nan was taken away, she almost treated her daughter as dead, and now she can still see it, even if the next moment the whole door is destroyed, she is also willing.
"It's all my mother's fault, knowing that King Yan won't let go of the Nan family at all, but I still let you go to the fire pit of the Liu family, King Yan and the Liu family just want to use this to practice you, and also to practice all of our Nan family, my mother will never be stupid again, and would rather die together than leave you alone in the world again."
This sentence shows that in fact, both mother and daughter have a will to die, and Miss Nan planned it before she came back, and she couldn't imagine that Mrs. Nan and she already had the same idea.
Miss Nan felt moved, hugged Mrs. Nan, lay in Mrs. Nan's arms, and choked up: "Mother, I don't know if it's God's mercy, I met Xun Lang in Liu's Mansion." β
Mrs. Nan was shocked, she stared at Miss Nan tightly, and felt that her daughter was saying nonsense: "Jing'er, Xun Lang died four years ago. β
Miss Nan was suddenly a little excited, and said, "But who saw his body?" Maybe it's just missing, not dead? β
Mrs. Nan hopes that this wish will come true even more than Miss Nan, but Mrs. Nan is over half a hundred years old, and she no longer has naΓ―ve thoughts about many things, she shook her head bitterly: "Jing'er, mother knows your feelings for Xun Lang, but it was impossible for him to survive four years ago." β
Miss Nan's eyes were full of tears again, she didn't know that this was true, but if she hadn't seen Xun Lang's face with her own eyes in Liu's Mansion, she wouldn't have believed that it was true.
Miss Nan even touched her ankle, if it weren't for Xun Lang's knife, she would have been bitten to death by a poisonous snake at this moment. Xun Lang really appeared, and saved her.
This thought made Miss Nan's heart shine again, and there was even a hint of sweetness, maybe it was that God took pity on her, so that even if she died, she would fulfill a wish before she died, a wish to see Xun Lang again.
