Chapter Ninety-Three: The Two Don't Owe Each Other

When she came back from the back garden, it was almost lunch, and if it weren't for the prince's sudden return to the house, the princess was afraid that she would have pestered her until the evening.

The princess, who was still comfortable in the garden just now, heard that the princess had returned home, and her face turned pale with shock.

I'm afraid it's related to the fact that the eldest prince escaped from the southern border on the grounds of illness.

Who doesn't know, in recent years, although the prince has controlled part of the government, the power of the former emperor's heroes and generals has also become more and more profitable.

Although it is not enough to compete with the prince's henchmen, it is also a big trouble, and the emperor sees that he has attachment again, so he no longer obeys the prince's faction in everything.

Thinking that he entered the palace from Kunjiang back then, the little emperor didn't even blink his eyelids, so he agreed to Prince Zhan's proposal to take her back to the palace, and the people on the throne can be said to be on pins and needles.

Now that the soft persimmon has suddenly hardened, seeing that the throne at his fingertips has been stopped by someone, the prince is afraid that he will be a little unable to sit still.

"Oh, you're back, I thought you were swallowed by the princess?"

Xin'er was sitting in the yard drying the quilt.

"Why are you so diligent today? Afraid I'll bring the princess back and whip you? ”

Si Yanyin clasped her hands to her chest and teased.

"The prince should be back soon......"

"Who said that?" How could everything spread so quickly in this palace?

"Words from the princess's courtyard."

“.......”

The princess's maids are really gossipy.

"Saying that the riot will soon subside, won't the prince return in triumph?"

"Cut, he didn't go to the battlefield again, what kind of triumphant return is it, at most it's just a small achievement."

Si Yanyin disagreed.

"Can't you cheer us up? If you want to say it compared to the second son, the third son is naturally nothing.

Compared with the three generations who have stayed at home for more than ten years, what a great honor it is! ”

"Yes, yes, the fox is out of the hole, and the world will not be peaceful."

"Eh, what do you mean by that, can't you say something nice?"

Xin'er chased after Si Yanyin and chattered.

"You practice these flattering words well, and when the son of the world comes back, you will tell him carefully, ah!"

After saying this, Si Yanyin stopped Xin'er at the door: "I'm going to make up for it first......

"Hey! You ......"

As soon as Xun'er opened her mouth, Si Yanyin's door had already slammed shut.

"You girl, look at how I sue you when the son of the world comes back!"

Xin'er stood outside the door with her hands pinched at her waist.

"Whatever you want!"

Si Yanyin's perfunctory answer came from the room.

In the south of Xunche, the firecrackers were still tied up in the barracks, and the food sent by the guards was not touched.

Feng Jian kept persuading her to eat something, but she didn't have any appetite.

Why hasn't there been any movement on the third son's side? Isn't her solution viable?

If that's the case, they should take the captives and go to the swamp to negotiate with the tribesmen?

But no, how long is this going to be delayed? The second lady doesn't know what the condition is?

Has the prime minister returned home? Did the old lady see the letter she left? Will the eldest lady take advantage of the old lady's absence, and make some moths?

"Ahhhh

Firecracker shook his head irritably: "Second lady, what have you done?" God won't even help you with an antidote. ”

When he was about to beat his chest with firecrackers, thinking about what he would do in the future if he delayed the second lady's rescue, the door curtain of the barracks was lifted.

"That's her, take her away."

"Yes!"

As soon as Firecracker raised her head, she was grabbed by the arms by two soldiers and escorted her out of the tent.

"Where are you taking me?"

None of the soldiers answered her.

"Is it a result?" Firecrackers were thinking in their hearts.

After a while, several people came to a camp tent and opened the curtain, but in front of them was the chilling second son.

"I heard that you proposed to the third prince to lease the land in Kunjiang?"

Zhan Xiuxian asked.

"Yes......."

Firecracker lowered his head, not wanting to look at him, his eyes were too terrible.

"Why do you bow your head? Can I eat you? ”

Zhan Xiuxian couldn't help but laugh a little as he saw her reaction.

"The little woman rarely goes out when she is young, so she is a little afraid of ......."

"Where is your house, and whose family is it?"

"The little woman is just a subordinate.......

"Inferior? Heh, why aren't the people in our family as clever as you? ”

“.......”

Firecracker didn't answer, this man was really not as comfortable as the third son.

"What's your name?" The man in front of him asked again.

"Hmm...... Bamboo ......"

"Bamboo? Do you still have relatives in Xi Yanke? ”

"There is ......"

When Firecracker heard him inquire like this, he suddenly felt bad in his heart.

"Then bring them to Xun Che together, you follow me back to the palace, isn't it much better than being a subordinate in an ordinary family?"

"The Prince...... I ......."

Just when the firecracker wanted to say no but was afraid of angering Zhan Xiuxian, a familiar voice came from outside the door.

"Second brother, why haven't you slept so late?"

Zhan Xiaokong creaked in with a wheelchair.

"What's the matter with the third brother?"

"I'm here to tell the second brother that there is news from Kun Jiang's side that he agrees to lease the border wasteland to Xun Che cheaply."

"Really?"

"Of course, we can negotiate with the mob tomorrow morning."

"Great! I didn't expect this matter to be solved so easily! ”

Zhan Xiuxian slapped the table happily.

"I wonder why the second brother called this girl over?"

Zhan Xiaokong glanced faintly at the firecrackers standing aside.

"Oh, I think this girl is very smart, and she wants to bring it back to the palace!"

"This ...... I'm afraid that's not appropriate, right? ”

"How is it not appropriate?"

"She is from Xi Yan, and she has brought so many companions, if this matter is transmitted back to Xi Yan......"

"Joke! How many people flow into the car every year, who cares about the whereabouts of a maid, as for those few people,

Either give some money and send it away, or you can kill it! ”

"Alas! It's really ruthless, and killing people with a casual sentence is like talking and playing......"

Firecrackers sighed in their hearts.

"Shizi! The little woman is not an ordinary maid, I am the personal maid of the second lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion! ”

"Prime Minister's Mansion?" Zhan Xiuxian frowned when he heard this.

"That's right! This time I came with my entourage, I was ordered by the prime minister to go to the swamp to collect medicine for the second lady to treat the disease, if we don't go back, the prime minister will definitely find out the reason! ”

She didn't want to reveal where she came from, but this second son actually started her idea, and the firecrackers were sonorous and powerful, confident that Zhan Xiuxian would never dare to keep her again this time.

"Since you are the prime minister, you can't stay, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble!" Zhan Xiaokong answered.

He promised to let her get out of the way!

"Okay, okay, it's not necessary! Take her back to be guarded! Zhan Xiuxian waved his hand irritably.

"Yes!"

The guards came in and left with firecrackers.

Before leaving, she winked at Zhan Xiao gratefully.

Zhan Xiao hooked the corners of his mouth without a trace.

"I'll just say this guy looks good when he laughs......"

"Why does the second brother want to take her back?"

"There is no pleasing maid around, either stupid like a pig or stupid to death!"

Zhan Xiaokong only smiled faintly when he heard this, but did not answer.

It's not that he doesn't know what Zhan Xiuxian is for, as soon as he comes, this woman can be regarded as a help in this matter, and he can bring it back to the palace to show off.

Second, the girl is somewhat similar to Yin'er in terms of appearance and temperament, and Zhan Xiuxian must have also noticed it.

Wait a minute! That girl just said that she was from the Prime Minister's Mansion!

Wasn't Yin'er's royal brother driven from the palace into the Prime Minister's Mansion?

Zhan Xiaokong secretly thought that Yin'er was very worried about her royal brother in her heart, why not take this opportunity to help her convey her concern?

This girl must be saved!

"Second brother, I'll go back first, you rest early, there are still big things to be busy tomorrow."

"Got it, you go back first!" Zhan Xiuxian's face was tired.

Zhan Xiaokong came out of Zhan Xiuxian's tent and went directly to the camp where the prisoners were held.

"What is the matter with the Son of the World?"

Firecracker looked at him inexplicably, she had just been escorted back, and the straw under her ass was not yet hot.

"You say, you came out of the Prime Minister's Mansion?"

"Yes......"

Firecracker nodded.

In the Prime Minister's Mansion, is there a proton from the country of Kunjiang?

"The proton of the country of Kunjiang? Right! There is one! ”

What does this do, he asked?

"When you go back, will you bring him something for me?"

"What's that?"

"I'll give it to you then!"

"Do you want me to send something back?"

"No, when he sees something, he will naturally understand."

What is this Xun Che Shizi asking me to bring something to Prince Kun Jiang? Firecracker tilted his head and was puzzled.

Zhan Xiaokong seemed to see her doubts, and explained:

"Don't get me wrong, girl, I sent it on behalf of his sister, and the princess of Kunjiang is now in the prince's mansion.

She was very concerned about her brother. ”

"Oh..... I see! ”

Firecracker smiled awkwardly, she really thought there was something between the two of them just now.

"The girl has done me a lot of help in the south, and she wants to send things for me, I wonder what the girl wants?

Is it gold, silver, or jewelry? ”

That's right! Hearing the son of the world say this, he is going to repay my kindness!

Gold and silver don't matter, only one thing is most important now!

"Shizi!" As soon as the firecracker said two words, he fell to his knees with a thud.

Zhan Xiaokong raised his eyebrows and looked at her in confusion.

"Shizi, as I said just now, I was ordered to collect the antidote, but the Bian Bian grass grows in the depths of the swamp.

It's very difficult, and I don't know what to do even if I try my best. ”

"What the girl wants to pick is Bian Grievance Grass?"

"Yes! So I want to ask the prince to borrow the wind and arrow army to borrow arrows to pick grass. ”

"How do you want to pick it?"

"I want to tie a rope to an arrow, but I don't know until I know how to do it......"

"Don't bother, just leave this matter to me."

"Really?"

"What am I lying to you for? It is difficult to pick Bian Bian grass on the border of Kunjiang, but on the Xunche side, there are more landing sites.

I'll go back and figure it out. ”

"Thank you, Shizi!" Firecrackers were so excited that they almost wanted to go forward and protect Zhan Xiaokong's thighs.

"You helped me, I repaid your favor, and we don't owe each other."

The firecracker looked at Zhan Xiaokong's starry face, reflected in the flickering candlelight, which actually seemed a little unreal.
