Chapter 31: The Storm

When I returned to the Beihai Palace, the sky was already faintly bright.

The mellow and rich King of the North Sea, with an anxious face, kept pacing back and forth.

Princess Beihai covered her face with a handkerchief and cried, and hiccups from time to time: "Unprovoked, how did Chunsheng provoke the bandits?" I don't care how many bandits died, I can't be okay with my spring life......"

The king of Beihai was upset, and he had no intention of coaxing his old wife, and instructed left and right: "Go to the gatehouse again and see if the prince has come back." ”

Before the words fell, a familiar handsome face appeared in front of him.

Beihai King's eyes suddenly lit up, and his fat figure moved somehow, and it arrived in front of Xu Jing's eyes. His eyes quickly swept around: "Are you okay?" ”

Princess Beihai took a step slower, and when she saw Xu Jing's bloodstained body, she was almost frightened and fainted.

Xu Jing's eyes were quick, and he hurriedly supported the old lady: "I'm not injured, these are other people's bloodstains." ”

Princess Beihai finally came back in one breath, holding Xu Jing's arm tightly, crying with tears.

The King of the North Sea was also relieved: "It's okay, go take a bath first, change into clean clothes, and then talk." ”

In this world, there is nothing important except life and death.

After making sure that his son was fine, the King of Beihai returned to his former graceful demeanor and patiently coaxed the Princess of Beihai: "You are scared in the middle of the night, and you must be tired now." Go back to the dormitory and sleep for half a day to recuperate. Here I am! ”

Princess Beihai is in her fifties, her energy is low, and she has stayed up in the middle of the night, and her spirit is relaxed and very tired at this time. was helped to rest by a personal maid.

When Xu Jing took a bath and changed into new clothes, he was relieved to see that only his father was the king.

The father and son spoke in private, and there was nothing to hide. Xu Jing explained the original story of the matter, and only used the Spring and Autumn brushwork on the matter of "recognizing the portrait of the bandit".

The King of Beihai's eyes flashed, and he glanced at his son: "When have you seen Zhou Sui Yang Wansheng?" ”

Xu Jing replied without changing his face: "I saw it from Zheng Er." ”

Zheng Xuanqing is the son of General Zheng, and the Zheng family is a general, and it is reasonable to have portraits of bandits.

The King of the North Sea didn't expose his son's nonsense, and sighed: "You are really reckless this time." However, these bandits are all extremely vicious, and they will be killed when they are killed. ”

Xu Jing was a little surprised: "Father really doesn't blame me for causing trouble?" ”

The King of the North Sea sighed: "Since the day my father came to the domain, he has been trembling carefully for decades. Over the years, I have restrained you everywhere. Needless to say, you know why. ”

"Today, the world is different. It doesn't hurt if you show some edge. ”

Xu Jing: "......"

My father has always believed in "forbearance" and "low-key everything", why did his tone suddenly change today?

The King of Beihai lowered his voice and said, "Today I received a letter from your eldest brother-in-law and second brother-in-law, the emperor is seriously ill and won't last long. ”

"Dajin is going to change the sky."

Xu Jing's heart jumped suddenly, and his blood suddenly accelerated: "Father! ”

The light in the eyes of the King of Beihai flashed, and he judged the two of them on a peaceful day: "The prince is a lustful, mediocre, virtuous and talentless fool, and he can't suppress the courtiers at all." Once the emperor dies, the court will be in chaos. The capital is unstable, and the people and bandits in the states and counties will never settle down. ”

"Chunsheng, I have a hunch that the real troubled times are coming."

"I've endured it for decades, and now I'm too old to use it. You're still young, and the days ahead are still long. Do whatever you want in the future! ”

……

Today's Zhao clan studies are surging with a strange uneasy undercurrent.

Wu Shao, who had always worked hard, had no intention of studying, and whispered to Huo Yan beside him: "I heard that bandits broke into Beihai County last night and were killed by the prince and his own soldiers. ”

Another classmate also poked his head out: "I also heard that Wang Tong, the official of the city gate, was secretly colluding with the bandits, and he has been arrested and sent to the capital." ”

"I really didn't expect that the son of the world is brave and has the courage to kill bandits!"

"Isn't it? After a few years of classmates, I didn't see that the son of the world was so powerful. ”

The young men praised Xu Jing in a gossiping manner.

Huo Yan's eyes flashed with jealousy, and his mouth echoed casually.

At this moment, Xu Jing stepped into the school. The young men immediately gathered around, either curiously asking questions, or meeting the horses.

When a teenager grows up, it may be an overnight thing.

Xu Jing did not brag complacently, and casually perfunctory a few words to his classmates. Then he stretched out his hand and pulled his friend Zheng Xuanqing to talk outside the school.

"Good fellows! I haven't slept since I woke up last night. Zheng Xuanqing looked scared, reached out to touch Xu Jing's chest, pinched his throat and whispered softly: "Brother Chunsheng, are you okay?" ”

Xu Jing took a sip with a smile, opened the restless pig's trotters, and then whispered: "If someone asks in the future, you will say that I have seen the portrait of Zhou Sui and Yang Wansheng in your place." ”

Zheng Xuanqing was stunned: "When did I have a portrait of a bandit?" ”

"That's it." Xu Jing was not reasonable at all, and was extremely domineering: "Whoever asks you, they all answer like this." Even if your dad smells it, you have to say the same. By tonight, the portrait will be delivered to you, and you will put it in your study and hide it. ”

“…… Your BMW lends me a month. ”

"I've got you."

Zheng Xuanqing was overjoyed, and said inch by inch: "The treasure knife also lends me." ”

"My own good brother, if you don't borrow anything, I'll give it to you."

"By the way, your new bow and arrow......"

"Get out!"

……

Zhao Xiyan stayed in the study for a long time.

When he came out, he had two more scrolls in his hand.

Waiting outside the study is a cute teenager with a baby face.

"Xu Erwu," Zhao Xiyan ordered softly: "You have installed these two portraits and quietly sent them to Zheng Xuanqing." ”

Xu Erwu hurriedly responded, opened the painting scroll and looked at it, and couldn't help but exclaim: "It's really like it." ”

These two portraits, one is a tall and fierce man, and the other is a man with a scar on his forehead, and his eyes are fierce and vivid. The best part is that the portrait does not look like a new painting at all, and it looks a little old.

Zhao Xiyan smiled slightly: "The small skill of carving insects is not worth mentioning." Go ahead! ”

Xu Erwu took the painting scroll and left.

Zhao Xiyan sighed silently.

If you tell a lie, you have to use more lies to round it up. In order to clear her up from this matter, Xu Jing really put a lot of thought into it.

In the evening, Xu Jing came.

is still as usual, wearing gorgeous clothes, wearing a jade crown, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and his expression is radiant.

Zhao Xiyan raised his eyes and looked at him quietly.

He grinned and laughed, "Why do you look at me like this?" It's not the first day you know me. ”

Zhao Xiyan pursed her lips and smiled: "Let's go to the study to talk." ”

The two entered the study one after the other, closed the door, sat opposite each other across the desk, and looked at each other.

Xu Jing said casually: "There is no one else now." How do you want to fool me, just make it up! ”

Zhao Xiyan: "......"
