Chapter 213: Things that only older people do, Ji Xuan, you are old
It was noon, and in the palace of King Yu, Ji Xuan, the leader of the guards, was very troubled.
His partner Ji Qing, that dead boy was taken away by the guards for no apparent reason.
After several negotiations, Ji Xuan couldn't get people out from under Li Zhouyu's hands. This is already a troublesome matter, and the prince does not intend to make people worry.
Since the night half a month ago, at the foot of Yuqiao Mountain, the prince asked his brother-in-law Wei Yechen to coax away to break into the haunted mausoleum of Yuzhang Palace, and it has become a little strange after he came back.
Ji Xuan can't tell where the blame is, but the most obvious thing is that the prince doesn't let people follow, and always goes alone and does what he wants. Ji Xuan inquired sideways, but the prince was always secretive, only looking at you with a pair of unwavering black eyes, and he looked at people fearfully.
Ji Xuan felt a little hurt in his heart, could it be that he did something wrong and lost the trust of the prince?
Ji Xuan also sent someone to the Beilu Inn to inquire, and after the night of the tomb, their pavilion master only went back once in the early morning of the next day, and then went into hiding. I didn't explain where I went, and I didn't bring any of my subordinates. According to the master of the branch altar in the capital of Tianyi Pavilion, this is something that has never happened before.
The leader of the killer is missing, and the temperament of the prince in the palace of King Yu has changed......
At this time, Ji Xuan couldn't help but have a ridiculous thought, I heard that Wei Yechen was good at disguise, could it be that this prince who was talking nonsense when he woke up was pretending to have amnesia? Could it be that the prince was imprisoned and replaced by Wei Yechen?!
If it was Wei Yechen, he would have the ability to do this kind of thing! The prince himself once said that Wei Yechen's martial arts were above him, and they were bottomless.
So, in order to verify his guess, Ji Xuan brought out an old thing that only he and the prince knew, and mentioned one thing from time to time.
For example, Ji Xuanhui suddenly said, "The prince's strength is a lot greater, and the three hundred and sixty pounds of painting halberd can be lifted flat with only three fingers, haha!" I remember that when you were stationed in Huizhou, you were only sixteen years old, and you still felt struggling to hold this weapon in both hands, haha! ”
He deliberately said some wrong places - the prince had never been to Huizhou to garrison, he had only gone to Qinshan in the west of Huizhou to train soldiers and horses for half a year; If you can't hold a weapon, that's fourteen, not sixteen.
Ji Xuan hoped that the prince could correct it to prove that his conjecture was very wrong. So full of expectation, he looked at the prince with his eyes.
However, Yu Wentan was not enthusiastic and did not care about what Ji Xuan was thinking. A roll of his eyes shook over, and said coolly, "I have been recalling all kinds of things in the past, which is something that only those who are old can do, Ji Xuan, you are old." ”
Ji Xuan's face flushed, but the doubts in his heart were not dispelled.
After asking too many times, Yu Wentan sent down a tricky errand, as if deliberately making him have no time to think about anything else.
Ji Xuan had to take an errand and was sent to the little princess Fu Wan's side to find a person who, according to her, had been "mysteriously missing for half a year".
At first, Princess Fu Wan refused to say the person's name, and only gave some vague clues, so Ji Xuan walked around the city for a few days without finding anything.
Every time he saw her cowardly look that wanted to speak and stopped, Ji Xuan wanted to go crazy, and he couldn't wait to rush into the bamboo forest and dance with a long knife. I can't show it yet, after all, the other party is the princess, the golden branch and jade leaf.
In order to solve the matter as soon as possible and return to the prince's side, Ji Xuanqiang pretended to be gentle and loving, patient, inquired about his daughter's family, and finally got the truth out of Fu Wan's mouth.
He Jianxiao...... It turns out that the princess is looking for him?! The corners of Ji Xuan's eyes twitched.
Fu Wan showed a little shy look, and lowered her head to fiddle with the corners of her clothes.
Ji Xuan raised his forehead and said: "This person has definitely not been missing for half a year, I saw him not long ago." ”
"Really! Where is it! Fu Wan screamed in surprise.
"Famen Temple caught fire, and it was he who saved the prince."
"Then why did this princess come to visit, but the servant told me that their son-in-law had been away from Beijing for a long time, and his return date was far away?"
"Maybe he chose to avoid it for some reason." Ji Xuan speculated.
Fu Wan let out a low curse.
Ji Xuan made a big salute, bounced up and said goodbye, "Then, the villain will not disturb the princess, and the prince still has important things to send." ”
"No way!" Fu Wan dragged his sleeve, "If you don't find out the person, you don't want to slip away!" ”
Ji Xuan sighed and obeyed.
On the fifth day, his subordinates said back and forth that they vaguely saw He Jianxiao in the Dong Mansion, and although he had a long beard on his face, it should be him.
After inquiring again, the old lady of the Dong family was sick, and Ji Xuan thought that he might have gone to the clinic, so he also brought a gift and knocked on the door in the name of King Yu.
After sitting for a moment in the reception hall, the next person introduced Ji Xuan.
I inquired about the next person, Mrs. Dong was suddenly ill, and her cheeks were swollen with a big bag, not red, not swollen, not painful or itchy, but her appetite gradually deteriorated, and she didn't feel hungry all day long. The Dong Mansion invited the entire Tai Hospital, but no one could prescribe the right medicine.
Fortunately, the fourth lady Dong Qianmo invited a capable Lang Zhong to bring a good pill, and the old lady shouted that she was hungry when she took it, like a person who was fine.
As soon as I finished inquiring, I saw Dong Qianmo.
The girl stood outside the bead curtain, her temples were like clouds, her eyes were flowing, she turned her head to look at Ji Xuan, and greeted with a smile, "It's really lively today, Commander Ji also came to visit the ancestor, but it can be regarded as a rare guest." ”
The old lady inside the curtain coughed and exchanged a few pleasantries.
Dong Qianmo persuaded: "The ancestor wants to cultivate more spirits, it is better to lie down and talk, after all, Commander Ji is not an outsider." ”
After serving the old lady to lie down, Dong Qianmo turned around and asked, "Commander Ji came to visit the ancestor on behalf of his brother?" ”
Ji Xuan smiled slightly, and said: "I don't dare to disturb the old lady's rest, but the nurse in the family also has this kind of illness, I heard that the fourth lady invited a smart doctor, I don't know if I can introduce it." ”
"This ......," Dong Qianmo was puzzled, "That Lang Zhong left yesterday, and according to him, there is only one pill of treasure medicine, and there is no more." ”
Ji Xuan raised his eyebrows, "It's okay, Miss Annoyance will inform Ji of his whereabouts, please go over and take a look, it's okay to do your best." ”
The old lady recognized Ji Xuan's nurse, and she couldn't bear it after hearing it, "That's exactly the truth, no matter if there is medicine or myrrh, there is always a way to have Mr. Langzhong." ”
Dong Qianmo lowered his head and said, "Since the ancestor said so, then I will write Langzhong's residence to Commander Ji." ”
After Ji Xuan got it, he thanked him and said goodbye.
When I came out and opened the paper, I didn't know whether to be angry or scolded. Just because the place written by Dong Qianmo is clearly the backyard of the guard's mansion and the base camp of the guard.
Thinking of the sly smile in the girl's eyes before parting, the sentence, "If you want to save your life, you have to be fast, but if it's too late, you can't tell." ”
It's blatant.
This Miss Dong Si, is it a peripheral force for the development of Xiaowei? What she meant by her words was Ji Qing? Ji Qing fell into the hands of Xiaowei, and he was not saved when it was too late?
Ji Xuan secretly gritted his teeth, it was about Ji Qing's life, knowing that this trip was very dangerous, so he had to break through.
********
That night, Ji Xuan led eight dead soldiers to break through the guard's defense line and silently infiltrated the dungeon in the backyard of the guard's mansion. It was Shi Jiong who was on duty tonight, and he looked like he was half drunk with a red face.
Ji Xuanxin in the shadows was lucky, and when he was derelict in his duties, the odds of winning increased by three points.
Just as he was about to order the dead to break through, the grass in the distance was blown by the wind and blew to Ji Xuan, and the wind was mixed with the smell of pig iron.
The vigilance in nature made Ji Xuan's heart froze, realizing that this was a trap at all, and was about to order a retreat, when a terrible man's scream came from the dungeon opposite.
A dead soldier behind him couldn't bear it anymore and rushed out. Shi Jiong smiled wildly and pulled out his double knives, led his subordinates to surround him, and captured the man alive.
Ji Xuan had no way out, so he had to order in a deep voice, "Kill into the dungeon and save people!" ”
At that moment, the two sides started to fight, and Ji Xuan brought the elite of the army, and he was not afraid of death, so he quickly fought his way out and smashed open the door of the dungeon. Ji Xuan rushed in and found Ji Qing hanging on the wall in the last room.
Although the silver mask covers half of his face, it cannot be mistaken for Ji Qing.
The bloodstains on the prison clothes, as well as the unnaturally bent hands and feet, can be seen after several major punishments.
Ji Xuan was furious, clicked, cut off the chains, and put Ji Qing down.
"How about it, can you go by yourself?" Ji Xuan helped him and asked.
"Yes."
Ji Xuan handed him the weapon in his hand, "I'll open the way, and you will be behind." ”
So the two joined forces to kill, and the cooperation was very tacit, Shi Jiong was not an opponent at all, and no other guards rushed to save the scene. And the ambush soldiers who were hiding in the grass in the distance from beginning to end did not show up, and Ji Xuan and the others killed them very smoothly.
Ji Xuan sent Ji Qing into the palace tunnel to check his injuries, and it turned out that the joints of his limbs were broken inch by inch!
That's not all, look at the different bruises on his wheat-colored skin, the old and the new, and he has also taken white medicine, about after splitting the muscles and bones, he will put them back every other day, apply medicine and bandage, and then divide the muscles and bones again without waiting for the injury to heal, and so on.
"How could they dare to do this!" A blood red flashed in Ji Xuan's eyes, which was a manifestation of true anger.
Before, Ji Qing could still swing a knife and slash people normally, but he thought it was just some flesh wounds, but he didn't expect that the joints of his whole body had been vigorously torn apart and torn, and there was no place where it was not like this!
This kind of pain is hundreds of times more painful than broken hands and feet, it is not something that ordinary people can imagine, it is difficult for Ji Qing to get through it.
Bring in the most experienced military doctor and take the best medicine for the wound.
The stronger the medicine, the greater the stimulation of the injury, and anyone will inevitably go crazy in pain, but Ji Qing didn't say a word from beginning to end, and he didn't even breathe a little.
Ji Xuan couldn't do it when he asked himself, and it hurt to see him suffering like this.
According to the military doctor's private information, due to repeated injuries to the vital points connected by the muscles and bones, after General Ji Qing recovers from his injuries, there is no guarantee that his martial arts will be restored as before.
Ji Xuan clenched his fists tightly so that he could not hold back his seizure.
After sending off the military doctor, Ji Xuan returned to the tunnel, looking at Ji Qing's side face as calm as an ice stone, and at that moment, the air was terrifyingly cold.
"You, did you hear them all?" Ji Xuan asked uncertainly.
"Guessed." Ji Qing said calmly.
"What the military doctor said nonsense, you can rest in peace, you don't need to think about anything." Ji Xuan's eyes flashed, trying to say comforting words, but for the first time, he found that he was the most clumsy person in the world.
After a moment of silence, Ji Qing took the initiative to ask, "What about that night's dinner...... Li Zhouyu didn't embarrass the Dong family, right? ”
When Ji Xuan heard him ask, he was angry with Dong Qianmo at the moment.
Troubled by the red face, Ji Qing was injured like this, wasn't she harmed? Ji Qing has become like this, she feels half guilty!
Ji Xuan let out a silent sneer, kicked open the stone door, and walked out with a knife.
