After being sentenced for half a day, Liu An'an did not have a piece of flesh and skin intact, and he was dying.

Ask and ask, still the same sentence.

The entrance to the secret passage is only known to Zhou Sui.

Murong Shen held back his anger for a night and a half, couldn't bear it anymore, and cut off Liu An's head with a knife. A puddle of blood splattered, staining Murong Shen's clothes red.

Murong Shen coldly ordered: "Continue to search, you must find the entrance to the secret passage." ”

This search is two days.

Many of the bandits who escaped were captured and cut down one by one. The innocent women and young children in the stockade were sent down the mountain crying.

The stockade was searched everywhere, but Zhou Sui Wangtong was not found, and of course he did not find where the secret passage was.

However, another personal soldier came to report that it was in the southeast of Qinglong Mountain and found a group of people who should not have appeared.

"The personal soldiers of the prince of the North Sea?"

Murong Shen frowned, quickly thought of something, his pupils shook, and he immediately said, "Call that pro-soldier leader over, I have something to ask." ”

Half a day later, Xu San, who was tall and silent, appeared in front of Murong Shen.

"What did Xu Jing send you for?" Murong Shen stared at Xu San imposingly.

Xu San replied briefly: "The prince sent a small one to help Captain Murong. ”

How could Murong Shen believe such nonsense, and sneered: "Did Xu Jing know that there was an escape secret passage in Qinglong Village, and specially asked you to wait near the secret passage?" ”

Xu San raised his head: "The Murong family is powerful, and our Beihai Royal Mansion is not easy to bully." What qualifications does a five-grade lieutenant have to open his mouth and call our son by his name? ”

Murong Shen: "......"

A group of pro-soldiers around Murong Shen each pulled out their long knives with a bang and pointed directly at Xu San: "Presumptuous!" ”

"Dare to be disrespectful to our captain! I'll slash you with a knife! ”

Xu San, who was usually silent and silent, straightened his waist at this time, facing dozens of long knives alone, without fear: "It's okay for Captain Murong to humiliate the little one. However, if you despise the prince like this, if you give up this life, you will have to ask Captain Murong for advice. ”

What a Xu Jing! There are such loyal and fierce soldiers who are not afraid of death.

It seems that he underestimated Xu Jing.

Murong Shen didn't laugh angrily: "The captain of this school is indeed reckless. Put down your weapons! ”

The soldiers around him put away their blades stupidly.

Murong Shen spoke to Xu San a lot more politely: "What's your name?" ”

"Little Xu San."

"Xu San, the captain of this school asked you, does the prince know where the secret passage is?"

"The captain misunderstood. The prince ordered the little one to come to help the captain, what kind of secret way, the little one didn't know at all. ”

asked back and forth, but Xu San didn't know.

If you don't eat hard and soft, you can't torture Liu An like that. Murong Shen had no choice but to let Xu San leave, and then sent someone to keep an eye on Xu San and his party.

As long as Zhou Sui shows his head, he will not want to escape from Qinglong Mountain.

……

A day later, a fast horse rushed to the outside of the Beihai Palace.

"Qi Shizi, Xu Sanling came back to send a message." After a day and a night of galloping, the eyes of this pro-soldier were red: "Captain Murong won a big victory, and the bandits of Qinglongzhai were killed. Up to four or five hundred people escaped. ”

"Zhou Sui Wang Tong has been missing."

"We were found traces, and Captain Murong called Xu San to question. When he opened his mouth, he asked Shizi if he knew where the secret passage was. was all pouted back by Xu San. ”

"Xu San asked the little one to come back and deliver the letter, and asked the prince to take precautions as soon as possible."

Xu San didn't seem to talk much, but he was actually a fiery temper. On weekdays, he doesn't show mountains and dews, but this time he showed his grandeur to Murong Shen.

Xu Jing thought about that picture, and felt relieved, and said casually: "I know." You rest for half a day and then go back, tell Xu San, and continue to stay there. When the imperial army withdrew, he withdrew again. ”

The pro-soldier grinned: "The little one is not tired, so let's go back." ”

……

An hour later, Xu Jing entered Zhaojiafang.

The hair is thinning, the beard is also thinning, and the third great-uncle was supported by his great-granddaughter to sit by the door and bask in the sun.

Xu Jing immediately dismounted, stepped forward and bowed: "Third great-uncle." ”

The third great-uncle lost all his teeth, and he laughed like a naughty child, revealing a hole: "The prince came to find the crescent moon again?" ”

Xu Jing has been in and out of Zhaojiafang since he was a child, and the third great-uncle has watched Xu Jing grow up, and he has nothing to be afraid of him, and his tone of voice is very casual.

Xu Jing grinned: "Yes." ”

The third great-uncle smiled: "Go!" Go ahead! Crescent Moon is a good girl, the son of the world should treat her well. Otherwise, old man, I won't be the first to spare you. ”

Xu Jing raised the corners of his mouth: "Third great-uncle don't worry, I will scold my sister and fight back." ”

The third great-uncle was amused.

When Xu Jing entered the door of the Zhao family, the third great-uncle turned his head and said to the seven or eight-year-old girl: "Girl, do you see it?" In the future, I will learn from your aunt of the crescent moon, and if you want to marry, you will marry such a handsome, lovely, affectionate and righteous young man. ”

The girl blinked, and when she laughed, she showed two open teeth.

At this time, Zhao Xiyan was sitting in the piano pavilion on the second floor.

The wooden building is simple and elegant, and the girl's sleeves are lightly pulled, and the plain hands are lightly dialed. The sound of the piano is like a stream, gentle and pleasant.

Xu Jing originally strode over, but when he arrived at the wooden building, he stopped. He didn't go upstairs, just leaned against the wooden post, his hands clasped in front of him, and tapped his toes to the rhythm of the piano.

The mood that was originally a little impatient quickly eased and calmed down.

After playing the song, Zhao Xiyan stretched out his hand to pry open the light yarn, and smiled: "You're here, why don't you come up?" ”

Xu Jing raised his head and smiled, held the pillar with his right hand, jumped with both feet, and jumped to the second floor like an agile ape.

The movements are so familiar and dexterous, obviously not once or twice that I have done this.

Zhao Xiyan pursed her lips and smiled: "Be careful, don't stumble." ”

Xu Jing sat down opposite Zhao Xiyan loudly: "This Qin Pavilion, I have been coming up like this since I was eight years old, how can I break my feet." What kind of tune was played just now, it's so good. ”

Zhao Xiyan couldn't help but glance at him: "You can't remember what you said." Thirsty or not? Begonia brewed a pot of chrysanthemum tea today. ”

Xu Jing hummed, picked up the teapot very easily, and poured two cups. Take one to Zhao Xiyan first.

If this is seen by the princess of Beihai, I don't know what she will be angry about.

I worked hard to raise a baby son who was afraid of melting in the palm of my hand, and I never held a cup of tea for my own mother! It's very easy to serve your sweetheart.

Zhao Xiyan sipped slowly and drank half a cup of tea.

The craft of begonia tea brewing is first-class. The tea is fragrant, slightly sweet in the mouth, and has a long aftertaste.

Xu Jing gulped two glasses, and then said in a low voice: "Xu San and his party were discovered by Murong Shen. ”

Zhao Xiyan frowned, put down the teacup, and said softly: "Xu San, are they back?" ”

"Not really." Xu Jing looked at Zhao Xiyan: "Will Murong Shen be suspicious of you?" ”
