Chapter Eighty-Four: A Game Within a Bureau
Zhao Li crooked his lips and smiled: "Your Highness Zong, you can't cross the river and tear down the bridge." Brother Xu and I are both willing to brave the wind and rain and come here to join you in the Chamber of Commerce. If you turn a deaf ear, you are not righteous enough. ”
Xiao Zong said: "It should be me who braves the wind and rain! Forget it, this place is not suitable, so let's go to the old house." I want to see who is the person who fascinates our sister Li'er?"
Zhao Li bowed his head and was shy. Xiao Zong said, "What are you still doing in a daze, hurry up and take me there." You know martial arts, and I won't run around. ”
Zhao Li nodded in response, took Xiao Zong's clothes, pulled him out of the window, and went to the roof in an instant. Flying across the house, the place of time was swept away, and a moment came to the old house. Later, when I saw that there were no traces, I entered the house and closed my house.
Xu Qingzheng was sitting alone in the room to practice, intending to straighten out the fierce Hun Yuan in front of Fang, but fortunately he did not hurt his liver and spleen. I don't know what the reason is, but I'm safe.
Seeing the two of them snatch into the house, the tiger's body was shocked, and he drew his sword to kill. Seeing that Xiao Zong and Zhao Li were here, he was relieved.
Put the sword back into its sheath and said to Xiao Zong: "This is His Royal Highness Zong." Xu Qing, a grass citizen, greets His Highness. ”
As he spoke, he knelt on his knees. Zhao Li hurriedly walked over and said, "Brother Xu doesn't have to be polite, His Royal Highness is not like other princes, there is no lord and minister." Besides, you are Your Royal Highness, so you don't need to be like this. ”
Xiao Zong couldn't look at it, and shouted: "Who said that I don't have a fight? What kind of reckless rivers and lakes call me a member of the royal family?"
Li'er, if there is no real evidence, wouldn't all the cats and dogs have become the sons of the world? You must look at people carefully in the future, and don't listen to some inexplicable rhetoric, so you secretly promise. If he is deceived, he will count the silver for him to live. ”
When Xu Qing heard this, he felt unhappy, and immediately replied: "What does Your Highness Zong mean by this? Sincerely, how can I be regarded as deceitful and deceitful? I was born in the rivers and lakes, and I am in a humble position.
Your Royal Highness honors the royal lineage, and you don't look down on me. But don't turn people upside down and frame people indiscriminately. If this is the case, Xu Qing will leave, and he will not be affected by this pistachia!"
said that Biti Sheath wanted to leave, Zhao Li hurriedly pulled it. Chao Xiao Zong said: "Your Highness, don't you want to make fun of Brother Xu, okay? Wouldn't it be better for the three of us to sit down and talk?"
Xiao Zong said: "I'm not making fun of him. Whether it is respect or inferiority, you can know it at a glance, and there is no need to joke. ”
Xu Qing said with a smile: "Your Highness is right, how can I be a bandit worthy to be in the same room with His Highness?
Zhao Li couldn't pull it up, and suddenly heard a burst of talking outside, mixed with footsteps.
The three of them panicked, and they all leaned against the wall to listen carefully, only to feel that the person's voice was getting closer and closer. In a hurry, Xiao Zong opened the door and snatched it out, and the guards and maids outside were so frightened that they all bowed and saluted.
Xiao Zong said: "What are you two doing here?"
The maidservant replied, "There is no firewood in the kitchen, and the shed is all gone, so the slave and maid have come here to get firewood." ”
Xiao Zong paused slightly, looked at the guard and said, "You were originally in the front yard to take care, why did you have to run to the back yard?"
The panicked guard said timidly: "The little one is just here to run an errand in the backyard." Seeing that this little cui girl asked for firewood, thinking that there seemed to be some unused firewood here, I brought her here. ”
Xiao Zong suddenly shouted: "Nonsense! The front yard is too busy, do you still have the leisure to go to the backyard to do things? weave these reasons, and plan to fool me!"
The guard was so frightened that he knelt down and kowtowed, saying, "Your Highness spares your life. ... Your Highness spares your life! The little one is not half a lie, and please let His Highness know it!"
The maidservant also knelt down and said, "Your Highness, Brother Chang wants to help me do things, so he came with me." If Your Highness wants to punish the slaves and maids, punish the slaves and maids!"
Zhao Li and Xu Qing in the house listened happily. While the three of them were talking, they opened the window door from behind and rushed out of the window.
However, Xiao Zong didn't know that the two of them had already left, and he was going to delay for a while, but he said: "Why am I trembling, it turns out that you are good lovers." I plan to do the right thing in this old house where I can't see the clouds. ”
The two were stunned and turned to sweat profusely. The maid wept silently, and burst into tears. The guard also cried: "Your Highness, you said that the small one is not just a convenience, why bother to blame it with Xiao Cui? The two of us are innocent, but we say a few more words on weekdays." The little one admits that he admires Miss Cui, so he deliberately goes around to the backyard just to look at her twice. But it's just a small piece of wishful thinking, and it's not about Miss Xiaocui. Your Highness will punish me alone!"
Xiao Zong was still about to scold, when he suddenly heard the sound of a stone hitting the fence next to him, and immediately glanced back. The two also looked towards the fence, Xiao Zong already understood that the two had escaped, and his face suddenly became much more relaxed.
But it was not too bad, so he said to the two: "You two get up for the time being, you are not allowed to step into the backyard again." Today's events are not to blame, so let's live. ”
The two of them heard it in a fog, and they had never seen Xiao Zongfa so angry. I thought that he would be expelled from the institute by beating the board, or sent to the Zongren Mansion at the worst, or simply degraded out of the palace, and he would never be allowed to enter the palace.
What is even more unseemly is that it is reasonable to die on the spot. Once the head guard and maid in the palace notice that there is an affair, even if they are not chaste at all, they will be punished with great punishment and will not be merciful.
Today, Xiao Zong was furious, thinking that it was difficult to recover. But when he suddenly turned his face and said arrogantly, he just called these two people to live well.
The guard who called Chang Yi didn't know why, but the maid Xiaocui was so frightened that she fainted. Xiao Zong just walked a few steps outside, thinking that the two of them would go to get firewood and return to the kitchen.
When the guards went to the front yard, they could turn back to the house and talk to Zhao Li and Xu Qing in the old house. But he didn't expect that this little cui was weak and couldn't help but be frightened, and fainted on the ground.
Unable to care about much, Xiao Zong turned around and returned to the same place. He hurriedly said to the guard, "What's the matter? Why did this girl faint?"
The guard was a little angry when he heard this, and thought to himself, "It's not that you have bluffed people and said these things that are not light or serious. It hurt the little girl to think that the sky was about to fall, so she couldn't resist and fainted. ”
complained like this in his heart, but he said, "Somehow, I fainted." This girl could not be frightened, and had little courage. ”
Xiao Zong said anxiously: "Why didn't you say it earlier? Maybe I spoke more heavily, even if you mention it, it can make me slow down a little." ”
The guard blurted out: "Your Highness comes up as if there is no door to heaven, and if you are so angry, how dare you say more?" Even if you say it, you will definitely refute it!"
Xiao Zong hurriedly said: "You are still choking with me, don't talk so much." Go and ask the imperial doctor in the middle palace to come and take a look!"
Chang Yi said timidly: "I'm afraid this is inappropriate, Xiaocui is just a palace maid, why bother. ...”
Xiao Zong said angrily: "If you talk about your mouth again, I will pull out the root of your tongue! Go to me quickly! Carry her on her back first and send her to the side room in the front yard." ”
Chang Yi immediately picked up Xiaocui on his back and rushed to the front yard. When Xiao Zong saw the two of them walking away, he didn't follow, but only went back to the old house. Zhao Li and Xu Qing stayed on the roof, and for some reason, Xiao Zong turned back to the house, and the two flew down to the ground and entered the old house.
Closing the door, Zhao Li immediately said, "Your Highness, why did you turn back? That little cui girl fainted and fell to the ground, can you rest assured?"
Xiao Zong said: "There is no need to care so much. I left, giving him the opportunity to be alone, and the beauty of adults is so good. ”
Zhao Li said: "What is the beauty of adults? Miss Xiaocui fainted, didn't you still ask the guard to find the imperial doctor?"
Xiao Zong said: "It's just a maid, it's hard for me to accompany me in person, it's enough to have Chang Yi alone." ”
Before Zhao Li could speak, he saw Xiao Zong rush to say, "You say something nonsense." I'm afraid that the time will pass, do you still want to see your father?"
Zhao Li said suspiciously: "Your Highness has already greeted the Holy Lord?"
Xiao Zong said: "I don't have it, it's just that I look at this Xu Shaoxia's appearance, but it doesn't look like a royal person in my family." I can't confirm Xu Shaoxia's identity, so how can I rest assured that the two of you will go to see your father?"
Zhao Li hurriedly said: "Isn't it that His Highness doesn't trust me? What do you mean by what you just said?
Xiao Zong smiled and said, "What is the county lord talking about? When did I say that I was going to take you two to see my father?"
Only then did Zhao Li realize that Xiao Zong, who had always treated himself well, was actually a person who did not believe in his words. only shook his head and sighed, but he still couldn't accept it, so he wanted to make amends.
Tong Xiao Zong said: "Your Highness Zong, are you really so ruthless?"
Xiao Zong sneered: "I'm ruthless? I'm ruthless, I'm the most ruthless in the world! Even if you hate me, it's okay for you, none of you can run away today!"
As soon as these words came out, Xu Qing immediately felt that something was wrong. Glaring at the beads of his eyes, he picked up Xiao Zong's shirt and said angrily: "What do you mean by this?"
Suddenly, two people rushed in from the window, Peng Huai and Chen Yuan. Chen Yuan raised his sword and pointed it at Xiao Zong and said: "Your Highness, I will say that this person is unreliable! Hurry up and keep him as a hostage and negotiate with Emperor Liang!"
Xiao Zongqu said: "I'll just say, it turns out that it's not just the two of you here." What about you who say I'm ruthless and don't keep my promises?
Isn't it a lie to me behind the scenes? Just make a casual move, and you'll be hooked. Li'er, you really deserve to have grown up with me, your temperament has not changed, and you are still so innocent and cute. ”
At this time, Zhao Li looked at this comprehensive prince, and felt more and more that he was no longer the weak and uncontrollable when he was a child, let himself be bullied, and never talk back, love to play with himself, every time he let himself, be humble and courteous, and quietly take care of his intimate brother.
I don't know the smiling man in front of me anymore. Deng Shi was stunned and speechless for a while. Xu Qing saw it and held her palm.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here." ”
Zhao Li looked at Xu Qing, and his heart eased slightly. When Xiao Zong saw this behavior, he was even more furious. His hands were clapped together, his face was very proud, but his eyes were full of murderous intent.
Suddenly, the door of the house collapsed, and everyone was shocked. I saw a person walking in slowly, the sun shining in, and several people couldn't see the person's face clearly.
When I got closer, I saw it completely clearly, and it was actually Fu Zhen who had been in the Void Mountain a few days ago.
He still leaned on a cloth sword on his back. Xu Qing stared straight at him, wondering why this Fu really came here? Aren't they.....
turned to look at Zhao Li, and saw that Zhao Li was also puzzled. yelled at Na Fu Zhen, "Hey, why are you here?"
Xu Qingshun looked at Xiao Zong, and said coldly: "Li'er, this is all thanks to your Highness Zong!"
Zhao Li was stunned. Xiao Zong laughed and said, "Xu Shaoxia is right. Fu Shaoxia was invited by me, but I didn't expect it. ”
Just when Zhao Li was stunned, another person walked in outside the door. Everyone looked at it again, and the man was dressed in a robe and brown, and it was Huang Nansheng, the leader of the Shallow Water Gang.
Chen Yuanden shouted: "Your Highness, let's leave this place quickly!"
Xiao Zong smiled: "You can't leave anymore." ”
Peng Huai exclaimed, "What about the nightmare outside the house, where have they gone?"
At this moment, I heard a gentle footstep again, and a purple and gold boot stepped into the door. Xu Qing looked closely, and at this time he had already expected that person must be Xiao Song.
