Chapter 22: Hiding a knife in a smile

After Dr. Jiang retreated, he heard King Chen ask, "When my father-in-law caught those bandits, did they have this thing on them?" ”

Rong Qing was already displeased, but he still replied: "At that time, those bandits were about to commit a crime, so they naturally carried this thing with them. It's a pity that those people have been beheaded by the lower officials, and the things that His Highness is interested in have also been buried in the mass graves on the frontier with them. ”

King Chen heard General Rong's displeasure and knew that he must have misunderstood, so he didn't explain, but continued to ask: "At that time, Father Yue watched them behead and personally threw them to a mass grave?" Or do you let someone do it? ”

"Song Xiaohou did it." General Rong was reluctant to say more.

But as soon as the words fell, I suddenly realized something!

"Your Highness means ......" General Rong knew that he had misunderstood King Chen, and King Chen asked this, not because he was extremely interested in that drunken dream. It's because it's critical.

King Chen said: "This thing can't be done by someone from the Thunder Country. If the father-in-law believes Xiao Wang, let Xiao Wang deal with the next matter, how about it? ”

General Rong hesitated, he naturally didn't believe King Chen. But looking at King Chen's appearance, he seems to be a little confident.

General Rong weighed for a moment, and finally said, "Okay, in this case, this matter will bother Your Highness." ”

"Father-in-law has seen the outside", King Chen said, "Miss is the wife of this king who has not passed through the door, and now that Miss has an accident, this king will deal with it, naturally it should be." ”

General Rong smiled reluctantly, feeling that the biggest advantage of leaving this matter to King Chen was ...... may be able to let King Chen personally see his daughter's situation at the first time, and then decide whether to marry or not. And if he comes forward to rescue his daughter, Fei will naturally have a lot of twists and turns, not to mention, the most important thing is that if King Chen doesn't see it with his own eyes, he will only think about the worst.

When King Chen went out, he saw that King Chen's carriage was heading to the east of the city, and he didn't know whether King Chen was going to the prince's mansion or going back to his own mansion.

King Chen returned to King Chen's Mansion and wrote two posts, asking Xiao Zhuo Zhuo to send the wine to the Prince's Mansion and the Chang Hou Mansion respectively, and instructed him not to make strings, and not to let the Prince and the Little Marquis know that the other party was also invited.

Leisurely leaning on the long collapse in the room and closing his eyes to recuperate, waiting for Zhuo Jiu's reply.

Unsurprisingly, the prince and Song Xu agreed to his appointment and agreed to go to the lady's shop for lunch together.

At noon, he changed into a flamboyant purple mansion and went out. The arrangements have been made, just waiting for the arrival of those two.

As soon as she entered the lady's shop, Aunt Lan greeted her: "Your Highness's favorite wine and food have been prepared, and the girls are waiting for ......"

"Just let Yingying and Yanyan come in and sing songs, and at lunchtime, you won't want to be lively."

Aunt Lan smiled knowingly, "Understood...... The big wedding is coming......"

"Aunt Lan is so smart, no wonder the girls she teaches are so painful." King Chen said with a smile.

Laughing and entering the house, the wine and food were already served in a short time. Yingying and Yanyan entered the house, talked and laughed a few words, and as soon as the song "Yiren Duojiao" started, Song Xu arrived.

"Your Royal Highness King Chen, I haven't seen you for a long time, and I thought His Highness had forgotten me!" Song Xu quipped as soon as they met.

Because he was in the Qin Mansion Chu Pavilion, Song Xu was not inhibited. Everyone only makes friends, and being too cautious will ruin the fun. I have played with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince with King Chen a few times before, and they are all people who can have fun, and they are very deed.

King Chen and Song Xu talked and laughed for a while, and then they heard footsteps at the door again, and someone came directly pushed the door in: "Third brother, the palace hasn't arrived yet, why did you play it first...... Qu'er is coming? But there is no sincerity in being Dong'er. ”

Halfway through the conversation, seeing that Song Xu was also present, the words froze for a moment, but it was not very obvious, and he continued to laugh.

But the mind of joking is gone. Coincidentally, why did you find Song Xu over?

Although they had also feasted and drank together before, the third child and Song Xu did not have much contact in private, and every time the three of them were together, he was the Dong'er group. If the third child just wants to exchange gifts this time, it is too coincidental.

Scold...... After waiting for a long time, I didn't hear the news that Rong Qing went to report to the official, so it turned out that he went to find his good son-in-law to solve the problem. is not small, this kind of thing that damages the reputation of the third child, and he dares to ask the third child to help solve it. The father and daughter of the Rong family really have two sons, and their courage and insight are very within the reach of others.

"So there are other guests? This palace still thinks that it is the third brother, you suddenly found out in your conscience, and you want to honor your brother once? It turned out that I wanted to invite someone else to accompany my brother! Third brother, if you are not kind, you should be punished! The prince laughed.

Song Xu didn't know in advance that the prince was coming, and at that time he also specially asked Zhuo Jiu, the little servant who came to deliver the letter, but Zhuo Jiu said, "His Royal Highness only asked the servant to send a post to the little marquis, and did not invite anyone else." ”

In this way, it is natural to expect that this is a Hongmen feast.

Therefore, he also took the opportunity to laugh and said: "Yes, His Royal Highness King Chen, you should really punish yourself with a cup!" No, you have to punish yourself with two glasses! I also thought that His Royal Highness just invited me alone, so I was flattered! I didn't expect it to be filial to my brother and let me accompany him. ”

The prince glanced at Song Xu, and the two of them instantly looked like mirrors. Song Xu's meaning was to remind the prince that this was not a simple banquet. Because he also came without knowing it.

King Chen didn't shirk either, picked up the wine glass very happily, and said: "Okay, it's the king's post that is not clearly written, so the two of them misunderstood, and the king will punish himself with two glasses and make amends to the two!" ”

With that, he drank the glass of wine with pleasure. Immediately afterwards, he poured another glass of wine and drank it all.

He put down his glass, sighed, and said, "Hey...... It was also this morning that I didn't have a good life, so I was confused when I wrote the post. ”

"Oh? I don't know what makes the third brother so worried? Isn't it the third brother's good friend who married a foreign businessman? The prince asked with a smile.

"It's more serious than that...... "King Chen frowned, "It's Miss Rong who has an accident." I went to visit the General's Mansion early in the morning, only to find out that last night, Miss Rong was actually kidnapped by bandits! I don't know where the bandits came from, they dared to act so boldly and recklessly, and they dared to break ground on Tai Sui's head! ”

"Oh? Is there such a thing? The prince was surprised.

Song Xu was shocked for a moment in his heart, and then thought: "There is such a thing? Has the Rong family ever reported to the official? This is no small matter! ”

Originally, Song Xu just thought that King Chen invited the two of them, but didn't let them know about each other's arrival, which was a bit strange. But he didn't know what King Chen's intention was in doing this. Now that I heard King Chen say this, I understood what happened.

It turned out that the prince came to him that day to talk to him about the border and Lei Country, but it was not just a chat. It is estimated that the purpose of the prince is to learn from him about General Rong's enemies and use it as a pretext to kidnap Miss Rong. In addition, he also took away the drunken dream by the way, this thing must have been done by the prince.

King Chen took a sip of wine and looked at the faces of the crown prince and Song Xu. deliberately let them see their own scrutiny, Fang said: "The bandit clearly left a letter, saying that he was from the Lei Kingdom and was looking for Rong Qing to take revenge." Rong Qing originally planned to report to the official, but suddenly saw a footprint left on the table when the bandit was fighting with him, and said something...... It's not from the Thunder Country, I know who he is. ”

"It happened that the servant found a reed pole outside the back window, and there were some remnants of white powder in it, and the house doctor looked at it and said what was it called...... Drunken dreams are long. This king originally wanted to do his duty as a son-in-law and visit him first, who knew that he would encounter this kind of thing, this king was too lazy to care, just listened to Rong Qing's assurance. ”

"What guarantees?" The prince pretended to be okay and smiled, "That Rong Qing is an upright person, if he makes a promise, he must do it." Don't promise anymore, I will definitely say that my daughter will marry you. If such a thing had happened, what had he promised...... Third brother, don't blame my brother for talking too much, this may not be a blessing for you!"

King Chen also smiled: "Isn't that so?" If you marry a broken flower and a willow, it is not interesting. Fortunately, General Rong's assurances were that he knew where the drunken dreamer came from, and said that there was a way to get a personal stolen goods and return his daughter's innocence. Anyway, I'm happy to watch the show. Let's just wait here, after noon, maybe there will be a big drama to watch......"

King Chen said, and glanced at the two of them meaningfully.

The prince was fine, smiling very unhurriedly and looking as usual. But Song Xu obviously couldn't sit still, his eyes were dodgy, so he had to pick up his wine glass and use drinking as a cover.

Suddenly, he put down the wine glass, slapped his thigh, and said, "Oops! Worst! Awful ......"

"What's wrong?" King Chen asked casually.

"I forgot that my father was going to ask me about my homework at noon! After receiving the post of His Royal Highness King Chen, I was so happy that I forgot about it! If my father had found out that I wasn't at home, he would have expected me to come out and drink again! I'm sure to break my leg this time! ”

As he spoke, he got up and bowed deeply to King Chen, and said, "Your Highness, I'm really sorry, I'm going to take the first step." Another day, I will be Dong'er, and ask His Royal Highness King Chen and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to go to Tianxianglou to drink flower wine and make amends to the two Highnesses. ”

King Chen smiled and didn't stop it, and said, "Since the prince has something important, how can this king stop it?" If Gongzi was really beaten by Ling Zun, this king would not want to go...... Childe, please, this king will send you. ”

"Don't dare to bother Your Highness, Your Highness, please stay." Song Xudao.

As he spoke, he had already saluted the prince and King Chen again, and walked away.

King Chen smiled: "Childe, your ass is blooming!" ”

While talking and laughing, he kept up with Song Xu.

The prince was afraid that Song Xu would be timid, so he sold him if he couldn't hold back, and he was busy following him, not wanting the third child and Song Xu to have a chance to be alone.
