Chapter 302: The Weight of Responsibility
After hearing Zhang Xiaochi say that there were only the emperor and Princess Heshuo inside, Ye Zhiqiu suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, he pretended to look at the surrounding scenery casually, and confirmed that in addition to his own people, there were only Hamza and his two subordinates in the entire courtyard, and his mood also relaxed a lot.
Ye Zhiqiu quietly glanced at Hamza not far away, and seeing that the other party's attention was not here, he leaned over to Zhang Xiaochi and asked quietly.
"Brother Zhang, can you tell us about the situation inside?"
Zhang Xiaochi glanced at Ye Zhiqiu more, and his face became strange.
"Brother Ye, are you sure you want to know?"
Ye Zhiqiu's old face flushed, a trace of hesitation flashed in his eyes, and he hesitated for a while, but finally insisted on it.
"Brother Zhang, I am responsible for the emperor's personal safety, although there are only Princess Heshuo and the emperor in it, but the people of the Jin Kingdom are good at martial arts, so we must always be vigilant."
"I understand!"
Zhang Xiaochi showed an expression that seemed to be smiling, which suddenly made Ye Zhiqiu blush, but he would definitely not admit that there was a curiosity in the reason for his insistence.
After all, this is a great sin of disrespect.
Zhang Xiaochi, as a man, is still a man who has crossed over from the future, so he naturally knows the little caution of men.
However, he naturally won't say it, this kind of thing, everyone knows it.
I saw him holding his breath, and the neighborhood instantly quieted down, in his world, only the room where the emperor was located had movement, and the movement in the room was infinitely amplified in his ears.
Although he couldn't see inside, according to the voice, Zhang Xiaochi could roughly guess the situation in the room.
After staying in this state for about five or six minutes, Zhang Xiaochi was awakened by Ye Zhiqiu.
"Brother Zhang, what's the situation?"
"The emperor was drinking tea with Princess Heshuo just now."
Zhang Xiaochi replied nonchalantly.
"Are you just drinking tea?"
Ye Rufeng followed and asked.
"Do you want something else to happen?"
Zhang Xiaochi asked with a smile.
Ye Rufeng coughed dryly and quickly explained.
"What, Brother Zhang, don't get me wrong, I just want to protect the emperor's safety."
"I understand, I don't need to explain."
Zhang Xiaochi said with a smile.
Ye Rufeng was uncomfortable for a while, he knew that the more he depicted, the darker it became, so he could only be silent.
"Brother Ye, don't be so taboo, everyone is a man, it's normal to be curious."
Zhang Xiaochi smiled slightly, and then reminded.
"You two help me protect the Dharma, and I'll listen to the situation inside."
"Brother Zhang, don't worry, with our brothers here, no one can get close to you."
Ye Zhiqiu patted his chest and promised.
Zhang Xiaochi smiled slightly, showed a trusting look at them, and then closed his eyes and entered the state again.
In fact, even without these two brothers' protectors, he is not worried at all, after all, his danger sensing ability is not vegetarian.
The consciousness was immersed in the room where the emperor was again, at this time, the emperor was no longer in the position just now, judging by the voice, Zhang Xiaochi quickly locked the emperor's position.
"How can there be the sound of water?"
Zhang Xiaochi muttered to himself in his heart, listened carefully for a while, and confirmed that Princess Heshuo was bathing in the room.
"Didn't this old boy Hamza say that Princess Heshuo was bathing and changing clothes?"
"How did you start bathing?"
According to the sound of the emperor's breathing, Zhang Xiaochi could clearly hear that the emperor seemed to be emotional, and even the sound of breathing became much faster.
"I'm rubbing, maybe I want to cook raw rice in advance, right?"
A bold idea popped up in Zhang Xiaochi's heart.
"Brother Zhang, what's the situation inside?"
Brother Ye Zhiqiu asked nervously.
"Princess Heshuo is bathing."
Zhang Xiaochi divided part of his mind and answered the questions of the two brothers softly.
"Bathing!"
Hearing these two words, the two brothers were a little uneasy.
"If the emperor can't control it, then it doesn't follow the rules!"
Ye Zhiqiu said in a deep voice.
"That's right, if this breaks the rules, it will be criticized!"
Ye Rufeng also said with a sad face.
"You two don't want to go in and stop it, do you?"
Zhang Xiaochi took the time to ask in a low voice while observing the movement in the room.
"Shouldn't you go in and stop it?"
Ye Zhiqiu asked rhetorically.
Zhang Xiaochi was completely speechless, he retracted all his attention to the two brothers, and said angrily.
"I bet that if you two brothers dare to go in and destroy the emperor's good deeds at this time, there will definitely be no good fruit for you to eat!"
"This is the emperor's private matter, you have to weigh it clearly!"
"The emperor's affairs are national affairs, how can they be said to be private affairs?"
Ye Rufeng retorted.
"As brothers, I advise you not to meddle in your affairs!"
"Remember, our responsibility is to protect the emperor's personal safety, and don't bother with anything else."
"Brother Zhang, don't talk to us, let's see what's going on inside!"
Ye Zhiqiu reminded.
"Hamza's old boy is here, you go and distract him!"
Zhang Xiaochi reminded him, and when Ye Rufeng passed, he put his energy into the room again.
This time, Zhang Xiaochi just put all his energy in the room, and the movement inside made him a little uncalm.
In the room, the sound of water was still the same, but the sound of the water splash was much louder than before, and after listening carefully, Zhang Xiaochi quickly made a judgment, because he heard two breathing sounds very close, and they were accompanied by coquettish gasps and low wheezing.
", the emperor is going to play in the water!"
Thinking of this, Zhang Xiaochi became more and more curious about how beautiful this princess of Heshuo is, and she can make the king of a country unable to hold it!
"Brother Zhang! Brother Zhang! ”
"What's the matter?!"
Zhang Xiaochi's attention returned to Ye Zhiqiu and said in a low voice.
"Brother Ye, the emperor is playing in the water with mandarin ducks this time!"
"What?!"
As soon as he heard this, Ye Zhiqiu suddenly became calm.
"This is a broken rule!"
"Brother Ye, don't say more, if the emperor hears it, you kid will be miserable!"
Zhang Xiaochi hurriedly reminded.
"Big brother, what's wrong with you?"
At this moment, Ye Rufeng came to the two of them, and when he saw Ye Zhiqiu's sad face, he immediately asked curiously.
"The emperor is already with Princess Heshuo!"
Ye Zhiqiu replied.
"Huh!?"
Hearing this news, Ye Rufeng was also taken aback.
"What should I do now?"
Zhang Xiaochi originally wanted to open his mouth to persuade him, but he suddenly found that Hamza didn't seem to be in the courtyard anymore, Princess Heshuo was still in the house, and Hamza, as the envoy of the Jin Kingdom, it really didn't make sense to leave at this time.
"Brother Ye, where is Hamza?"
"He suddenly had a stomach upset and went to the hut."
Ye Rufeng's voice was low, and his mood was not high.
"When did he get sick to his stomach?"
Zhang Xiaochi hurriedly asked.
"Just now."
Seeing Zhang Xiaochi's solemn expression, Ye Rufeng hurriedly replied.
Zhang Xiaochi stopped talking nonsense and hurriedly concentrated his energy in the room, but where was there a splash in the room, he couldn't even hear the sound of breathing.
"It's not good, the emperor is gone!"
Zhang Xiaochi's face changed greatly, and he kicked open the door and rushed in, the huge room was still filled with water vapor and fragrance, but where could I still see the shadow of the emperor and Princess Heshuo?
"Where's the emperor!?"
Ye Zhiqiu's two brothers finally rushed in, and when they saw the empty room, their faces turned pale in an instant.
"Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty!"
The two brothers searched the room as fast as they could, but there were still no clues.
"Come on, come on, the emperor is gone!"
Ye Rufeng rushed out with a black face, and began to look around with a group of guards.
"Brother Zhang, can you find the whereabouts of the emperor?"
Ye Zhiqiu forcibly kept himself calm, his body trembled slightly, looked at Zhang Xiaochi and asked.
Zhang Xiaochi frowned, he didn't pay attention to the room for a while just now, and as a result, the emperor disappeared, in such a short period of time, it was impossible for them to quietly rob the emperor.
"Brother Zhang, are you talking!?"
The emperor disappeared, Ye Zhiqiu was completely panicked, if it weren't for the critical time when he thought that Zhang Xiaochi had extraordinary abilities, he would have led the team out with Ye Rufeng to find someone.
"Brother Ye, you lead the team to block the entire state guesthouse, and no one is allowed to enter or leave!"
"Also, all the people in the Jin Kingdom are controlled by me, don't let them escape!"
Zhang Xiaochi commanded in a deep voice.
"Yes!"
Although Ye Zhiqiu didn't know the purpose of Zhang Xiaochi's doing, he had no backbone at this time, so he went out to arrange it directly.
Zhang Xiaochi was soon left alone in the room, his eyes were on the bathtub, and the picture just now appeared in his mind.
It took less than a minute to distract himself, and in such a short period of time, it was absolutely impossible for the other party to quietly kidnap the emperor.
But now that it's done, there's only one possibility.
"The emperor may still be within the confines of the room!"
Thinking of this, Zhang Xiaochi's spirit suddenly became highly tense.
He began to look around carefully, just as Ye Zhiqiu and the others said, there was indeed nothing in the room.
"When you come out of the water, there will definitely be footprints!"
Zhang Xiaochi began to look around the bath barrel, but he didn't find any useful clues, and finally under his extremely careful observation, he finally found that there was a footprint next to the bath barrel that was about to dry up.
According to the footprint analysis, the toes are facing the direction of the tub.
"Is it ......?"
Zhang Xiaochi suddenly thought of something, his eyes froze, his hands grabbed the edge of the bathtub and lifted it suddenly, and a black hole appeared in front of him.
Seeing this hole, Zhang Xiaochi's pupils shrank for a while, and it could be seen from this hole that the plan to kidnap the emperor was estimated to have already been implemented.
He didn't hesitate and jumped into the hole as soon as possible.
After walking all the way down the tunnel and walking for almost a minute, Zhang Xiaochi suddenly had a chill down his spine, and he didn't have time to think about it, so he stepped back for the first time.
Whoosh ......
The place where he noticed the danger just now was instantly full of arrows, looking at the dense arrows on the ground, Zhang Xiaochi was afraid for a while, if he was another person, he would probably have been shot into a hedgehog.
"It's so ruthless!"
Zhang Xiaochi didn't dare to relax his vigilance, and triggered this trap, and the people in front would definitely be able to detect that someone was coming in, so to speak, the follow-up would be even more dangerous.
As a person who has traveled from the future, Zhang Xiaochi deeply knows that once something happens to the emperor, the court will be in chaos, and hostile countries will take advantage of the chaos to attack, and the last people will still be injured.
The most important thing is that the old man and the second aunt are still in Qingwa Town, and Qingwa Town is the first fortress facing the Jin Kingdom, and once something happens, the people of Qingwa Town will bear the brunt.
"I can't let that happen!"
Zhang Xiaochi grabbed an arrow from the ground, held it in his hand as a weapon, and accelerated along the tunnel.
