Volume 1: Cangyan Festival Chapter 24 A little sour

Back at Yanwang's Mansion, the palace was naturally the palace attendants on the third floor and the outer three floors, they waited all night, and now seeing that Xiao Wei and Xie Wuyi had returned safely, they could finally return to the palace with confidence. As soon as Xiao Wei dealt with it, he sent them all away.

As soon as he turned around, he looked at Shanghua Feidu's resentful eyes again, Xiao Wei could only stand in place and laugh a few times.

This was the second time he had injured Xie Wuyi.

Although Hua Feidu was unhappy, he couldn't say anything, so he only took Xie Wuyi from Xiao Wei's hand and helped her back to the bedroom. Chunni and Yunshang wanted to follow, but they were also stopped by Xiao Wei raising his hand.

Xiao Wei glanced at the sky, "Dada, come to the study." ”

After checking Xie Wuyi's injury, Hua Feidu's brows, which had been tightly locked, finally relaxed.

"It's okay, it's not very heavy," she took out the medicine from the box to reduce swelling and stasis and applied it to Xie Wuyi's shoulder, "Who handled it for you?" The technique is quite skillful, and there is no problem except for the shoulder. ”

"Princess Gaoyang." Xie Wuyi replied in a low voice.

Xiao Yun is cold on the outside and hot on the inside, and he is very capable and decisive in doing things, no wonder he can have such a high prestige in front of several princes.

Xie Wuyi secretly sighed, hoping that Xiao Yun would not criticize Xiao Wei for yesterday's incident.

"We were scared to death when we got the letter last night, and the people in the house didn't sleep all night." Hua Feidu gently massaged Xie Wuyi's hands, "What's the matter, isn't Pinglin Garden a royal forbidden garden?" ”

Xie Wuyi was afraid that Hua Feidu was worried, so he didn't talk about the situation at that time in great detail. She remembered the people who attacked Zhong Yu in the first place, so she described their posture and style, and asked Hua Feidu if he could do it.

Hua Feidu put away the ointment and got up to stand by the window. Looking against the light outside, she pursed a pair of thin lips tightly, and the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes became more and more obvious.

Xie Wuyi didn't disturb Hua Feidu, and let her immerse herself in distant thoughts.

After a while, Hua Feidu lowered his head, "I don't know." ”

There are many masters in the world, and Xie Wuyi was not surprised by this answer, she took out the candle bone instead. After a night of fighting, the pale blue waves became brighter, and at the moment when the sky was black and white, it splashed out of the room full of haze.

If the candle has no bones, it will break the bones into candles.

As soon as Hua Feidu saw it, his eyes immediately turned red.

On that day, in order to raise money to treat her injuries, her girl could even sell such a precious weapon without hesitation, Xie Wuyi was obviously using her as her biological mother.

After supporting each other for so many years, Hua Feidu thought more than once that it would be nice if Xie Wuyi was really her daughter.

"Princess Qi gave it to me, Hua Niang, I also thought I would never see it again in my life." Xie Wuyi slowly stroked the whip body and cut open the bayonet, "It's just that these barbs are not very easy to use, otherwise I wouldn't have taken so many hits from them." ”

Hua Feidu trembled and took the candle bone, "It's okay, I'll fix it." ”

Xie Wuyi nodded, "By the way, Hua Niang, was there any movement in Chu Mansion and Wanchun Tower yesterday?" ”

"Feng Da went to the military department yesterday afternoon, and it seems that he retrieved something." Hua Feidu said while wiping the candle bones, "I didn't expect that little ghost to have a very strict mouth, I pestered him for a long time and didn't say anything." ”

He won't say it.

Xie Wuyi lowered her head, she didn't reveal her true identity, and Xiao Wei naturally wouldn't tell her what he knew. Perhaps he was waiting for her to catch up and ask, and by the way, put forward his conditions.

It's a deal.

Xie Wuyi quickly put aside the military department and asked again, "What about Wanchun Tower?" ”

"There's nothing abnormal, Ziqiao is just a normal accompaniment."

Very good, Xie Wuyi smiled with satisfaction.

It stands to reason that Chu Yufeng borrowed Li Shanren to set up such an easy game to break, and Ziqiao did not play a "due" role in it, so it should be disposed of, at least someone should be watching.

And she gave them a day, but the other party didn't make a move, which shows that this chess piece is still useful to her.

As for how it will be used, it depends on Chu Yufeng.

"It's okay, I guess she'll be moving soon." Xie Wuyi nodded briskly on the table and said, "But don't tell Ah Nianβ€”"

As he was talking, Ah Nian appeared at the door with a bowl of red date porridge and a few plates of side dishes, Xie Wuyi immediately stopped talking and greeted him with a smile. Ah Nian stood beside Xie Wuyi, quickly swept her face, glanced at her, and then lowered his head and pinched his sleeve.

Thankfully, he was able to see her safe and sound.

Peace is good.

"I don't think you ate, so you made porridge and hors d'oeuvres...... I did it myself, you ...... Eat it hot and cushion your stomach. Ah Nian opened his mouth, but he stopped talking.

He clearly heard them talking about Ziqiao, but he felt that it was too rude for him to ask now, so he had to choke back.

Xie Wuyi had been hungry for a night, and now his eyes lit up when he smelled the fragrance. She rubbed her hands, picked up the spoon and took two bites.

There are a lot of red dates and wolfberries in the porridge, which are sweet and silky, which is most in line with Xie Wuyi's consistent taste.

Through the scattered broken hair, Ah Nian's gaze was fixed on the gobbling Xie Wuyi's face, and his voice was slightly low.

"You...... Like? ”

Seeing Xie Wuyi nodding very affirmatively, Ah Nian's eyes finally brought joy, "If you want to eat in the future, tell me, I won't make delicious dishes, but I still ...... cooking porridge."

"What?"

Xiao Wei's astonished cry was heard in the distance, and then a few loud noises were heard, as if someone had dropped the scroll. Then, the loud sound of a bell drew closer.

"Tell them that no one will be allowed to enter the small kitchen without the permission of this king in the future!"

With a "bang", the bedroom door was shaken open.

"Xiaoyi, it's time to eat!"

Xie Wuyi was holding the bowl, his mouth was full of a mouthful of porridge, and he couldn't swallow it.

Hua Feidu got up and went to fold his clothes, pretending not to see anything.

Ah Nian's face suddenly lost its blood.

Xiao Wei smiled like a spring breeze, and came over to thank Wuyi's arm diligently. Seeing that she was unmoved, the hand slid into Xie Wuyi's uninjured lower back again, and with a little force, he carried her away from the chair.

"Why didn't Xiaoyi wait for this king, isn't it annoying that this king didn't pass the meal in time?" Xiao Wei clinged to Xie Wuyi's body as if no one was around, pressing her back slightly, and the voice he fell on her ears was also full of charm and tenderness.

"Why don't you speak? What do you want to eat at night, just tell your husband ......"

Feeling that Xiao Wei was not good, Xie Wuyi couldn't figure out where he came from this nameless fire. But the palm he wrapped around his body was really hot and powerful, teaching her to not move. Xie Wuyi endured it again and again, and swallowed the hot porridge in his mouth with tears.

Scalded......

Xiao Wei, you are sick!

The meal was more dull than going to the grave, Xiao Wei always had a black face, and Xie Wuyi had no appetite after eating something casually. After a while, Xiao Wei said that he was going to the study to deal with some business, but he ignored Xie Wuyi and left.

Be all abroad.

Xie Wuyi was too lazy to ponder Xiao Wei's thoughts, and she was not a real husband and wife, did she still want to be kind and comforting like a gentle and virtuous princess?

She didn't have such thoughts, and she didn't have that much time.

Chu Yufeng has already shown her form, and she must think about what to do next.

Back in the bedroom, Xie Wuyi casually held the chess box on the table in his arms and thought about what happened last night.

The matter of Pinglin Yuan is too big, and she doesn't believe it when she says that she didn't lay out in advance. Xie Wuyi took out a chess piece, turned it a few times between his index and middle fingers, and lightly tapped it on the top left of the table.

Pretending to be Feixue and the first three people who came to kill Zhong Yu, they are not dead soldiers, and they are ready to retreat after predicting the failure of the operation, which shows that they do not want to reveal their identities.

But no matter how noble Zhong Yu's identity is, she is also a woman, why did they kill her?

It is more likely that it is the hands of Lu Yunji's political enemies. Zhong Jin is in charge of the forbidden army, and as soon as Zhong Yu dies, the relationship between the Zhong family and the Lu family will inevitably be estranged, and the forces that Lu Yunji can rely on will not be reliable.

This is not difficult to think, and it is not within the scope of Xie Wuyi's consideration, even if the courtiers fight for their heads, it has nothing to do with her.

Xie Wuyi picked up another chess piece and put it on the lower left, and later the large number of dead soldiers was sent by Chu Yufeng to kill her. Although those people are fierce, they have a clear purpose, which is to prevent her from investigating the case.

But what about Xiao Wei?

The third chess piece in Xie Wuyi's hand was sandwiched between his fingers and did not fall for a long time. She forced out the scene of the assassination they suffered last night, and the other party made a fatal move, and Xiao Wei was lucky to escape death several times. Once the assassin's knife slashed straight into his chest, if Xiao Wu hadn't shot from behind, Xiao Wei would have died long ago.

But here's the problem, Xiao Wei has just returned to the palace, whether it was in the past or now, at least he is not involved in the court situation and is not caught in party disputes on the surface, who will see him as a threat?

Xie Wuyi was immersed in his own thoughts, not realizing that Xiao Wei had been leaning against the door and watching her for a long time.

Seeing that she was undecided, he staggered forward, took out the fourth chess piece from the chess box and put it in the upper right corner, and said: "The crown princess is protected by the guards of the East Palace, and she cannot move around at will without a holy mandate or an edict equivalent to the holy order." ”

Xie Wuyi's hand clenched suddenly.

Without reason, she thought of the cup of tea that the crown princess brought to Zhong Yu.

Xiao Wei deliberately didn't look at the strength in Xie Wuyi's hand, sat opposite her, and added lightly, "The eldest sister has a token given by her father, and she can directly mobilize two hundred forbidden troops, and all you see are her people." ”

"This is a warning to us."

The word he used was "we", and seeing that Xie Wuyi turned his head sideways and didn't understand what he meant, Xiao Wei continued: "Everyone in Pinglin Yuan is not innocent. ”

Seeing that his expression was awe-inspiring, not like he was joking, Xie Wuyi suddenly felt a chill down his spine.

It didn't take long for her to figure it out.

Xiao Yu is backed by the Guogong Mansion, Xiao Wu has the support of the Lu family and the Zhong family, and even Xiao Yun can directly mobilize the forbidden army, these princes and princesses may not be so kind at all.

Xiao Wei said that Zhu Langxing was looking for Xiao Yu first and then Xiao Yun, so Xiao Yu, who claimed to be busy with state affairs, was he delaying time?

Xiao Yun transferred troops to help, is it the command of Pinglin Yuan?

As Xiao Wu's princess, Zhong Yue's miscarriage was really just an accident?

Pinglinyuan and her party are not only wrestling with Chu Yufeng.

Xie Wuyi fled and walked behind the screen, not wanting Xiao Wei to see his expression.

There is a secret box in the dowry box, which hides Fan Keyu's confession, which even Hua Feidu can't open. But at this point, some people let the assassination go, some people blocked the news, some people fished in troubled waters, and some people pushed the boat down the river. Now that even Xiao Wei is involved, does this confession in Xie Wuyi's hand really have a chance to see the light of day again?

She had never been so scared in two years.

However, what Xie Wuyi didn't know was that although Xiao Yun was able to mobilize the forbidden army, the defense of Pinglin Yuan had always been directly controlled by the emperor, and Xiao Yun must have violated the order to lead troops into the mountain this time. In addition, even if Xiao Yu can let the crown princess enter Pinglin Garden, he must have the emperor's approval. All the anomalies converged in one place, and when Xiao Wei saw the letter of the dead man, he understood the deep meaning.

Even his father didn't want Xie Wuyi to continue investigating the case.

Allowing chaos to happen in Pinglin Yuan was his warning.

But Xiao Wei couldn't tell Xie Wuyi that he couldn't extinguish her last hope.

Xiao Wei's gaze fell through the screen on Xie Wuyi's thin phantom. He has always been flamboyant, and even the embroidery on the screen is a fiery red bird. The golden wire outlines the curve that is like a separation, even if you know that the difficulties and dangers ahead, the backbone is still straight.

A firework bloomed in Xiao Wei's mind, but his heart unexpectedly settled.

The more people blocked, the more the problem became, whether the two of them were tied together by the military ration escort case, or if that intersection happened much earlier. Since she is on the same road and insists on seeking the truth, what reason does he have not to accompany her?

"I have always believed that everything in this world has traces to follow and holes to see."

Xiao Wei looked at the screen and slowly raised his hand to Xie Wuyi's lonely back, but through a light veil, he couldn't touch her anyway.

He looked at the barren land that lingered around his fingertips, and said in a very solemn tone: "So Xiaoyi, with me, you don't have to stop." Luckily? ”

The shadow behind the screen was stunned, and let out a low "um" for a while.

That's good.

Xiao Wei touched the wound on his chest and smiled with relief, "In that case, do you want to see something I have here?" ”
