Chapter 173: Assassination
Thinking so, Xiao Ji smiled and looked at Song Zan Liye, "It will take some time to prepare at the post station, and now that the sky is acceptable, it is better for me to take everyone around first." ”
Song Zan Liye didn't speak, just glanced at him with a little meaning.
Xiao Ji didn't flinch at all, and he didn't even wrinkle his eyebrows.
"In that case, then thank you General Xiao for your hospitality," Song Zan Yiye suddenly smiled and directly agreed to the matter.
Although the others didn't know why their king suddenly made such a decision, they would not deny their king's proposal, so they had no opinion.
Song Zanqi was a little interested, but she didn't want to make trouble, so she didn't say anything, and directly followed the big army.
Xiao Ji is not a talkative person on weekdays, but in the face of visiting foreign envoys, it is always difficult to be indifferent, so he can only introduce the customs of the capital in as much detail as possible.
"I heard that General Xiao has married a wife," said Praise Lu Ye coldly, and then looked at Xiao Ji meaningfully.
"What the king said is right," Xiao Ji didn't know why he suddenly said this, but he didn't mean to refute it at all, and nodded directly.
"This king is very curious about what kind of woman can enter General Xiao's eyes, I don't know where she is now, can you let me see it?" Praise the law with a smile on his face, and when he comes out, he also hides a smile.
"This ......"
Xiao Ji frowned, not knowing what he meant.
Cheng Shuiyao has nothing to do with their group of people at all, why did they suddenly ask to see Cheng Shuiyao?
"General Xiao doesn't have to worry too much, this king has no malicious intentions," Song Zan Leye saw that he didn't answer for a long time, and raised his eyebrows slightly, "This king just thinks that my sister shouldn't be used to staying with our group of men, and wants Mrs. Zun to accompany her on a tour or two." ”
This is also human nature.
Xiao Ji nodded, but he didn't intend to agree to them, and spoke directly, "I understand your concerns, but it's really unfortunate, my wife has just suffered some injuries, and her body is not well, I'm afraid I won't be able to accompany the princess." ”
Cheng Shuiyao had just been injured, and the wound had not healed yet, so he couldn't stand the toss at all, and he was not at ease with Song Zanqi.
"So that's the case, but this king didn't think it through," Song Zan Yuye nodded, didn't dwell too much on the matter, and then toured the capital.
On the other side, the prime minister stood on the tallest building in the capital and overlooked Xiao Ji and his party, with no expression on his face, not knowing what he was thinking.
He originally planned to do it, but Xiao Ji was too smart and directly saw through his thoughts, so he had to terminate his plan.
But this assassination will definitely not end here, the prime minister sneered and left here.
The opened window never closed, Xiao Ji seemed to feel something, and glanced up, but there was no one in sight.
I guess I'm overthinking.
Xiao Ji didn't think about it, looked at the ink chess that was walking towards him, and nodded slightly.
"Master," Mo Qi walked over quickly and whispered in his ear, "The prime minister did intend to make a move, but he didn't succeed, and now he has withdrawn his manpower." ”
Xiao Ji nodded, immediately looked at Song Zan Liye, and said with a smile, "The post station has been cleaned up, and you must be all tired, so let's go to the inn with me to rest first." ”
He was really a little inexplicable, and he frowned, and just wanted to ask, but was stopped by his own king.
"Please also ask General Xiao to lead the way," Song Praise Law glared at Song Zanwu, and followed Xiao Ji away.
Song Zanwu was glared at inexplicably, a little confused, but he didn't dare to say anything more, and directly followed their pace.
Xiao Ji was worried that the prime minister would have a follow-up move, and he was vigilantly observing the surroundings all the way, but there was nothing abnormal about this.
Xiao Ji sent the praise of the law industry to the post station, and he was relieved.
"If there is a need, just tell the steward," Xiao Ji took the steward to see and praise the law, and blessed him before leaving here.
Rushing all the way back to the General's Mansion, Xiao Ji walked into the house quickly, wanting to see Cheng Shuiyao.
"You're back?" Cheng Shuiyao happened to be leaning on the side of the bed to eat snacks, and when she raised her eyes, she saw him.
"You're sitting up so quickly?" Xiao Ji frowned, she didn't expect her to recover so quickly.
This is a whiplash wound that can be seen deep in the bones, it is not too much for ordinary people to lie down for ten days and half a month, Cheng Shuiyao can sit so quickly?
"I was always beaten and suffered a lot of injuries before, maybe I practiced it at that time, anyway, my injuries always heal very quickly," Cheng Shuiyao said nonsense without blinking her eyes, and her heart was indeed very empty.
She soaked in the spring water in the space for a long time today, so she recovered so quickly, but she didn't dare to say this to Xiao Jiming, so she just found an excuse to prevaricate.
Xiao Ji frowned, but unexpectedly found that this statement did have some credibility, so he didn't dwell too much on it, and sat on the side of Cheng Shuiyao's bed and spoke, "The foreign envoys came earlier than we thought, I may be a little busy these days, so you can stay in the mansion to recuperate, and if you want to know any news, just ask Moqi directly." ”
"So fast?" Cheng Shuiyao raised her eyebrows, with a little surprise in her tone.
It's too unfortunate, the mastermind behind it has not yet been seen, and now these people are here again, and they are really busy.
"Although these things are a bit complicated, I can solve them, so you don't have to work so hard, it's better to take care of your body," Xiao Ji smoothed Cheng Shuiyao's frowning brows and dropped a kiss on her cheek.
"Why is this all of a sudden?" Cheng Shuiyao's face turned red, and she didn't dare to raise her eyes shyly.
"By the way, they also brought a princess with them this time, I don't know if they plan to kiss or what," Xiao Ji accepted it when she saw it, didn't continue to tease her, and began to talk about business.
"Princess?" Cheng Shuiyao blinked, and her focus unconsciously deviated, "Is it good-looking?" ”
After all, no one can refuse a beautiful woman, right?
"Huh?" Xiao Ji didn't expect him to ask like this, and subconsciously said, "It's not as good-looking as you." ”
After saying this, Xiao Ji came back to his senses, and thought that Cheng Shuiyao was jealous, so he hurriedly spoke, "Don't worry, I won't have any superfluous communication with that princess." ”
"I'm not worried about this," Cheng Shuiyao hurriedly shook his head when he heard this, not thinking about it at all.
Xiao Ji is not that kind of person, and she has always been very relieved in this regard.
It's not worrying about this, it's worrying about what?
Xiao Ji didn't figure it out, but he wasn't going to ask more, just glanced at the sky, slowly stood up, and looked at Cheng Shuiyao to speak, "There is a dust washing banquet in the palace tonight, and I, as the person in charge, must attend, I can't accompany you to dinner today." ”
"It's important to get down to business," Cheng Shuiyao didn't dwell on this, urging him to hurry out.
