Xia Zhiqian didn't wait for the person above to speak, and while kneeling down, she had already raised her hand, holding the bamboo tube in her hand with her palm facing up, and the Lord Qiling who brought her in took the bamboo tube from her hand and handed it to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in front.

In Xia Zhiqian's spare time, she saw that the corner of the dress in a clear blue brocade robe belonged to His Royal Highness the Prince, and at the same time, her heart was also a little flustered with this cognition, as if someone had glimpsed her secret in an instant.

"Miss Xia, please get up." Xia Zhiqian finally heard the person above speak, the voice was low and gentle, better than Xia Zhiqian had ever thought, as if all the fantasies had substance.

Xia Zhiqian stood up nervously.

Zheng Songyuan had already opened the bamboo tube, the content of the letter was very simple, Zheng Songyuan had read it at a glance, but he did not speak, the room was quiet for a short time, and tension spread.

Ju Nanyi, who was standing next to him, did not show any curiosity about the things in Zheng Songyuan's hand, but this Miss Xia came very suddenly, and it was in the middle of the night. There is a brave general in Jiumu Mansion, and the secret letter he sent back must be very important. It's just that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince didn't let him out, and he was about to retreat on his own, and his order had already brought people in.

"Miss Xia has worked hard, and she ordered someone to send Miss Xia back." Zheng Songyuan had already spoken, without mentioning the contents of the bamboo tube at all.

Xia Zhiqian was somewhat disappointed, but she also knew that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would reveal a little bit to her about such an important matter, which was basically extravagant hope.

Xia Zhiqian held back the curiosity in her heart, and still bowed cautiously.

"The little girl quit."

Xia Zhiqian followed her order and walked out, a gust of lake wind blew, the girl felt that her cheeks were hot, her heart was beating hard, nervous, trance, just now she saw His Royal Highness the Crown Prince so closely, different from a distant glimpse when she was swimming in the lake, the Royal Highness the Prince standing in front of her made her very real, real as if her life was just beginning to have meaning at this moment.

"Miss Xia, don't be nervous, you did a good job today, sending such an important secret letter to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince so quickly, it really has the demeanor of making the general bold." Seeing that the little girl who followed her had almost fallen twice, her red face was bullish, and every movement of her body showed that she was very nervous, so she comforted her.

And it's not all words of comfort. The heirs of Jiumu Mansion withered, and only Mrs. Xia came this time with this Miss Xia, and that Mrs. Xia was very timid, but she didn't want this Miss Xia to be brave and resourceful, and she sent a letter in the middle of the night, and she came in several ways.

"Thank you for the compliment." When Xia Zhiqian heard this, she was a little excited by this sudden comfort, this is the guard next to the prince, praising him so much, does it mean that His Royal Highness the prince will also think of her like this?

Steward Li finally saw his young lady and breathed a sigh of relief, although it didn't take long for the young lady to go in and out, but for Uncle Li, it was torment.

"Miss-" Uncle Li immediately greeted him, and saw that Miss was following an adult, a little restrained, and was about to salute politely.

"Uncle is polite, I'll arrange for someone to send you back." His voice was gentle, and he waved his hand for the guards on the side to come up.

The two guards followed Xia Zhiqian's all the way to Jiumu Mansion, and Jiumu Mansion had already waited and waited, Mrs. Xia had no opinion, and had already cried a few times, although the minions below did not know what was happening, but they had been confused by the crying Mrs. Xia.

When she didn't know what to do, Xia Zhiqian had already arrived at the door, and Steward Li thanked the two guards with great gratitude, and even prepared the money to thank her, but the other party said that she didn't want anything.

At this time, the sky was already bright, and Mrs. Xia was tired of crying, and she was going to rest sadly at this time.

……

Ju Nanyi didn't want to know what news the Xia family lady brought, General Ling of the Jiumu family was now guarding the northern frontier, and he was so eager to send back the news from the northern frontier, it must be something happened in the northern frontier.

But Ju Nanyi knows that there are some things that are more difficult to know than to know, and it is more important to restrain curiosity and abide by one's own duty.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in front of Ju Nan obviously had something on his mind, and Ling Su had already taken the Prince's people to the place where the incident occurred, so there was nothing wrong with him here.

"Your Highness, the lower official is on duty tonight, if there is no other command, the lower official ......"

"Nanyi, don't be busy." Zheng Songyuan interrupted Ju Nanyi's words and suddenly looked at Ju Nanyi.

The moment Zheng Songyuan looked at Ju Nanyi, he had already made a decision in his heart, didn't he let Ju Nanyi take the position of economic inheritance?

When the unified examination was set up, it was only because this way would not easily touch the interests of others, but the shortcomings were also exposed.

The officials who came out of the unified examination were all civilian, and the official positions that could be engaged in could not gain a firm foothold from the existing interests, so there must always be a beginning to slowly infiltrate the territory of those forces.

The people who were held in these positions together with Ju Nanyi were all selected by thousands of people, and even how to go and how to be selected deliberately moved by their hands and feet, and it seemed to be very natural.

"Nanyi, you go to a place with me." Zheng Songyuan stood up suddenly, and Ju Nan only bowed slightly when he heard this, and immediately followed.

Zheng Songyuan got into the carriage, and his order drove in person, Ju Nan saw this, obediently got into the carriage, in the dark night, the sound of horses' hooves resounded in the night sky, Ju Nan Yi didn't think more, this is already a fact in front of him, the only thing that can be guessed should be related to the secret letter that Miss Xia brought.

It's just that it is not difficult for Ju Nanyi to see that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has hesitated, or rather, he thinks that it is too early to let him get involved, but the appearance of Miss Xia has broken his plan.

"Nanyi, do you know anything about the cult that appeared in Zhengdu more than ten years ago?" Zheng Songyuan suddenly spoke.

"A little bit of understanding, according to records, the cult is related to ghosts and monsters, sucking essence and blood to hurt people's lives, and 11 years ago spread the plague in western Xinjiang, killing and injuring tens of thousands of people. After the appearance of Master Huoyi, he killed the leader of the cult and organized a team to fight against the cult to annihilate the remnants of the cult in half a year. Ju Nanyi said immediately.

Zheng Songyuan nodded, with more approval in his eyes.

This kind of thing has disappeared in Nan Zhengguo for more than ten years, even if you are familiar with the classics, you will not notice such details, this is the excellence of Ju Nanyi, which can always surprise people inadvertently.

Therefore, even Zheng Songyuan doesn't know what else is hidden in Ju Nanyi in front of him.

"Your Highness, it's here—" The order stabilized the carriage, and in the darkness, Ju Nanyi didn't know the direction, only vaguely decided that it was near Siyan Mountain.

"Come with me and meet some people." Zheng Songyuan was the first to get out of the carriage, "These people are the elites of the team that once fought against the cult, and now several new teams have been trained. ”

Ju Nan was slightly stunned when he heard this, a little puzzled.

"The secret letter from Northern Xinjiang said that the forces of a cult have entered Zhengdu, and it seems that they have some important purpose."
