Thirty-five, a discarded son

Yazhi gently held the portrait rolled into a scroll, and slowly walked under the eaves of the Zhongwang Mansion, silently thinking about something in her heart. Wu Xiao had been secretly observing all this, and he was very stunned by this kind of scene. He watched from afar on the other side of the porch.

Wen Shiyuan gave him this painting and said to him: "This king is now recruiting talents, if you can come to the palace of the king of Zhong, fame, glory, and beauty are all available, although as a Nalan family, you may not care about these, but ......"

Wen Shiyuan walked over gently, put one hand on Yazhi's shoulder, and a strange smile appeared on his face. This smile made Ya Zhi's heart feel extremely uncomfortable, this statement felt too familiar to him, and King Zhong must have a purpose in wanting to take him in.

Yazhi lightly raised Wen Shiyuan's wrist, put it down, and said: "Thank you for your love, it is true that as the prince said, fame, fortune and honor are not what I want. What's more, my Nalan family and the Xie family of Liang Wang Ye are in-laws, I can easily get what I want, and under what conditions can you keep me, Lord?"

Wen Shiyuan seemed to know what Yazhi was going to say, and he laughed: "Yazhi, you are a straightforward person, there are no outsiders here, and the prince is also straightforward." You can be invited to come to Zhongwang's Mansion for a trip, presumably Wu Xiao has given you benefits, he doesn't have much ability, he is a child who grew up in Qiongyu Pavilion, and it is not surprising that he is clever and eloquent. In terms of integrity, this king can help you solve it, although you left Kaifeng Mansion on the surface, in fact, it is still for the case. ”

When Ya Zhi heard him say this, he couldn't help but feel a tightening in his heart, Wen Shiyuan saw through his thoughts, but he didn't completely see through them.

"The disappearance case in the east of the city, all of this is Wu Xiao's plan, in fact, it is just to add personnel to the logistics of the house. Each household is compensated accordingly. It's just that some people feel that the compensation is not enough, but it has become a kind of blackmail to the government, which is actually some trivial matter. If you really come to the palace to close the case, you can rest assured that this king will give an explanation to Kaifeng Mansion. If it is because of other things, then the king ......" Wen Shiyuan had something to say, and he said this, and suddenly became serious.

Yazhi stood there and didn't say a word, he was not afraid, he had already left Kaifeng Mansion, and he shouldn't have to worry about the case. He did have another purpose, and there was a certain danger to that purpose.

"Hehehehe......" Suddenly, Wen Shiyuan laughed: "This king is just joking~ Ya Gongzi doesn't have to care, as long as you follow this king, this king will not treat you badly, knowing that you like calligraphy and painting, this one will be given to you." Yazhi, this king has given you some time to consider, and if you need anything, just ask, and you can stay in the house until you don't want to. ”

The black gauze girl put away the scroll and handed it to Yazhi, Yazhi took it, glanced at the black gauze girl, he had some doubts in his heart, this girl seemed to have seen it somewhere. Yazhi was unmoved, just took the painting, thanked Wen Shiyuan, and left.

Yazhi walked under the eaves of the corridor and saw Wu Xiao in the distance. I can't help but think a little, what is Wen Shiyuan's purpose, I'm afraid that even Wu Xiao, the most popular person around him, doesn't know, Wu Xiao is just a pawn of the loyal prince, and his status seems to be very high, but he doesn't trust it, assuming Wu Xiao's words are true, I'm afraid Wen Shiyuan already knows that Wu Xiao has a different heart.

Wu Xiao saw that he came out of King Zhong "safe and sound", and the worry in his heart gradually faded. He hurried to Yazhi's side, and before he could speak, Yazhi preempted him and said, "Did you hear our conversation just now?"

Wu Xiao saw him speak first, and said with a slightly ugly expression: "I just vaguely heard something, I will be a hidden danger to Wen Shiyuan sooner or later." ”

Ya Zhi looked embarrassed and said silently, "You were worried about me just now?"

"yes, I'm worried that you'll be bewitched by him, that thing, it's very evil. Wu Xiao said hurriedly.

"I've heard about it, and when I see it now, I'm amazed. Ya Zhi said, handing the scroll in his hand to Wu Xiao: "Wen Shiyuan wants me to stay in the mansion and give me this calligraphy and painting, can you do me a favor?"

Wu Xiao took the calligraphy and painting, opened it lightly, and saw that the girl in the painting was a little similar to Yazhi, and said casually: "Do you want to inquire about the person in the painting?"

"Yes. ”

"Yes...... I've never seen this painting before, is it recent...... It's also unlikely, Wen Shiyuan almost doesn't leave the house, and I wait for someone to do everything. Recently, I haven't heard that he invited a famous teacher to paint. In my opinion, you better be careful, Childe, I'm afraid Wen Shiyuan has another trick. ”

"Perhaps, Wen Shiyuan is not just you doing things for him, he may find someone else in your absence. The maid beside him, I think I've seen it somewhere, do you know this person?"

"You're talking about a girl in a black veil?"

"Yes. She was veiled, and I looked into her eyes with a little panic, where have I seen her?"

"Well, Childe will know about this in the future. Wu Xiao smiled.

"You even sold me Guanzi. Yazhi glanced at him and smiled softly. "By the way, there are many doubts about your mother's death, if you don't mind if you can let me see the body, but it's been a few months, I don't know if you ......"

"If I can find out why, I don't mind. I didn't bury my mother, I ...... I can't bear to ......," Wu Xiao said getting smaller and smaller, "Can you lend me some silver taels...... I...... Need ......"

"Where is your mother?" said Yazhi felt a little strange.

"The ...... in the Qiongyu Pavilion Exceptional"

"Ice cellar?"

"It's not, it's close there, I borrowed a room from Leng Cui, the proprietress of Qiongyu Pavilion. She was sympathetic to me, so ...... I can protect my mother's body. I asked someone to rent an ice coffin, this cost is huge, I can only barely maintain it by performing in Qiongyu Pavilion by Yi Rongcheng and my mother, and it is because of this that Wen Shiyuan refuses to let me go. ”

"I see, I'll fix this for you. Do you have any familiar work with autopsies?"

"I didn't plan to do this, because I didn't want other people to touch my mother, but Childe is a different matter, and there is a suitable person for you to say so. ”

"Yes, although this person is not a man, but he is very suitable. Yazhi said, patting him lightly: "We'll act tonight." ”

Wu Xiao was churning in his heart by Yazhi's words, he didn't think that the person in front of him was going to take him out of the predicament.

In the study of the little prince in King Liang's mansion, Xie Yun was practicing calligraphy, and suddenly there was a knock on the door in front of the room. Then a man came in and curtsied.

"There is movement so soon?" Xie Yunxi said quietly, he did not stop the pen in his hand.

"Yes, Young Master Yazhi, he went to the city this afternoon and ordered an ice coffin. "Although this person is dressed simply, but it is not as low-end as the clothes of the subordinates, he combs his hair in a bun, and has a bronze mask on his face, I don't know what it looks like, and he listens to his voice like a teenager.

"Ice coffin?"

"Yes, this was originally Wu Xiao's, and Young Master Yazhi paid off the arrears of silver taels for him and bought it. ”

"A few days ago we were enemies, but now we are friends. Yes, it fits his character very well. Xie Yunxi smiled slightly. "Is there any news from my father in the palace?"

"There is no news from the old prince at the moment. ”

"My father, I don't know why he moved to live with the emperor's uncle, he doesn't know what he's thinking. Forget it, let it be. Xie Yun said and put down the pen. Looking up at the boy with the bronze mask in front of him.

"You grew up with me, although we are a master and servant, but in the palace, I believe in you the most. My relationship with you is actually no less than my relationship with Yazhi. Xie Yunxi slowly walked in front of the young man.

"Little Lord, I'm just an inferior person, you have a very good relationship with Young Master Yazhi, I don't dare to compare. When the young man with the bronze mask heard Xie Yunxi say this, he was shocked and quickly knelt down.

"You got up, and you didn't let you kneel. Xie Yunxi pulled him up: "I have found someone to heal your face, I will return you to your original face, and you don't need to wear this mask." Your face is scarred by me, and I am responsible. You don't have to excuse yourself. ”

"Actually, I don't care about my looks, I'm not a woman. It's good that the little prince doesn't dislike me. The boy felt a warmth in his heart.

"I'm not going to let you endure this all the time because of me. You are the same age as me, you are naturally so handsome, you will also have a girl you like, you should experience your own life. ”

"Thank you, little prince, for appreciating me, I really feel honored...... I ......" The young man choked: "I will remember the kindness of the little prince to me, and I will swear to follow the little prince to the death!"
