Chapter 32 (20)
Shen Shiyun frowned and said: "This palace has been in power in the court for a long time, and it has always done its own thing, and intentionally or unintentionally, it has attracted countless enemies. However, those people were afraid of the power of the palace, and they did not dare to act rashly. The only person who has the courage to do something to me in front of the public is the Demon Sect Remnant Star. Later, I took him for my own use, and until I stormed the helm, he was always loyal, and he would rather die for the mission, and died in a bitter battle. But this man today ...... It's hard to say, in short, he doesn't feel like a specially trained killer, at most he is a ninth-rate. The employer behind me didn't expect him to take my life, but deliberately sent him to die, taking this opportunity to give me a warning. ”
Prince Fu said: "Niangniang really thinks far-reaching, this king is not as good as ......" stroked Daluo's beard, calmed his mind, and said: "But I don't know who deliberately knocked on the mountain and shook the tiger? Do you need to hand over that assassin to this king, and let me find out the real culprit behind it on your behalf?"
Shen Shiyun bowed his head slightly and said, "There is Lord Lao." Hongu is grateful. ”
Prince Fu smiled and said: "Where is it! From now on, the affairs of the mother are the affairs of this king, and I will definitely handle it for you." Niangniang no longer doubts the sincerity of our father and son, right?" Shen Shiyun said: "The palace has competing interests and scheming, and if this palace can be credulous to any one of the negotiation partners, it is too negligent. In the eyes of the prince, I'm afraid that the value of cooperation should be lost, right?"
Prince Fu was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly, and said, "Okay, then please think about it for a few more days, this king is waiting for good news at any time!" said and high-fived a few entourages to enter, and carried the body out. bowed his hand to Shen Shiyun again, and took Shangguan Yaohua to retire. Xuan Shuang had already sat back on the chair, crossed Erlang's legs, crossed his arms, and watched like a play. Then he turned his head to glance at the back of Prince Fu, and said to himself: "Pretend!
As soon as Shen Shiyun and the others left, his face also changed, and he sneered: "Prince Fu thinks that with this little trick of saving his life and repaying his kindness, he can please this palace?
Xuan Shuang snorted coldly and said, "If you want to ask me, then I will congratulate you! Everything you have done has already caused the wrath of the heavens and the resentment of the people! You can work harder, and in the future, all the people in the government and the opposition will be your enemies, and they will use their brains every day to figure out how to assassinate you. And you, you don't need to bother to take precautions, anyway, the 'flower messenger' who is willing to give you the lead, one Li Yijie is not enough, this kind of fool is endless, just pull one and more?"
Shen Shiyun didn't chase after him, and snorted coldly: "It's true that the bigger you are, the more ignorant you are." What is the use of this palace raising this son?" Glancing at Cheng Jiaxuan, who was silent beside him, his tone was cloudy and clear, and said: "What's the matter, Xiao Xuan, aren't you quite capable? With the Seven Evil Sect Master, will you still see less of this kind of bloodshed and vendetta? In the past, this palace didn't pay attention to you, but it was a mistake." Tell me about it. ”
Cheng Jiaxuan has been reluctant to give up since she saw the jade pendant just now, but she didn't dare to speak out. Now listening to Shen Shiyun's question, he finally seized the opportunity and said softly: "Niangniang, the slave maid has some important matters, and for me, there is nothing else to do more than this." I beg my mother to allow me to cook for myself first, and ...... later. I will plead with you again. Lest Shen Shiyun not agree, he didn't dare to delay even for a moment, and immediately turned around and chased out.
Shen Shiyun's eyes faintly flashed a trace of waves, thinking that the Yinxue Palace could be called "full of friends" just now, but it didn't take long for the building to be empty. The cold wind in late autumn poured in, invaded the collar, and instantly dispersed all over the body, with a slight chill.
Cheng Jiaxuan identified the path and chased it out. Exhausted and panting, he leaned against the trunk of a tree and exhaled. Raising his eyes again, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Prince Fu and Shangguan Yaohua's figures flashing by. Suddenly, as if injecting a force, he stood on tiptoe and quietly got closer.
Prince Fu held his hands on his back, his face was tense, and he could see a domineering spirit from the side, and he was really not angry and arrogant. Shangguan Yaohua followed behind him step by step, and a little panic could be faintly seen on his face.
After a while, Prince Fu spoke: "How could there be such a mistake just now? Didn't this king specifically tell you to get a little blood out, so that people can be convinced? You are so painless and uninjured now, what a shrewd person Concubine Yun is, she thinks a little more, and she can also see that this matter is extraordinary. Who doesn't know your little skills? It's just that you are the little prince of the emperor's own title, so I will save you a little face. You can easily subdue the Assassins? Since she knew that we were intending to sell well, how could she receive this favor? That knife was so good, where could it happen to stab the jade pendant? Say, are you greedy for life and afraid of death, and buy it through the assassin in private?"
Cheng Jiaxuan was taken aback, although she also suspected the origin of the assassin, she never thought that it was sent by Prince Fu. Even Shangguan Yaohua's rescue of people and injuries was also in the original plan.
Shangguan Yaohua said: "Serve the father-in-law, and the child will never give up." I'm by no means a coward, and what happened to the jade pendant just now was purely accidental. However, forgive the child's foolish opinion, even if he does see blood, he may not be able to buy Concubine Yun completely. First, she is indifferent and selfish, and others die to save her, and she will only be glad that she is alive and will not regret the death of others. Second, since you have just said that she is 'how shrewd', do not contradict yourself and underestimate her. Historically, in order to create a great cause, there have been many lowly people who sacrifice their lives. It seems that this is acceptable, but what is the point of shedding a little blood? That may be even more flawed. Don't forget that the child is not related to her, even if he pretends to be a loyal subordinate, how can he give up his life and forget his death for a stranger? When I came to our side, I didn't even save the time of investigation. Who else can you obey except to serve you? ”
Cheng Jiaxuan heard this, and nodded again and again, and said in his heart: "Yes, you have to show loyalty and go up to block the knife yourself! Why do you want to bully Brother Yaohua?"
Prince Fu frowned and thought for a moment, couldn't find a rebuttal, and responded vaguely, and said: "This is left to the righteous father to try to deal with the aftermath, as long as you are still sure of today's affairs, I can boldly make some moves on the corpse and plant it in the regent palace." Isn't all the so-called evidence made for man? You don't have to bother. Speaking of which, when we saw that girl just now, she was still so hairy. Have you found out where she came from?"
Cheng Jiaxuan's heart was tumbling for a while, and she always felt that the "hairy girl" in Prince Fu's mouth was referring to herself. Listening to his vicious tone, it was terrifying, as if he was going to peel himself and cramp. I really couldn't figure out what had offended him, and my body couldn't help but shrink back to the trunk.
Shangguan Yaohua said: "The child is foolish...... Prince Fu was impatient, and said: "It's that girl who is well-guarded, isn't it? This king is tired of hearing your words! Half-hearted, not doing business, how can the results be high? I heard that you have been very busy recently, helping Li Yijie investigate the whereabouts of his missing junior sister? You can figure it out!"
Shangguan Yaohua bowed and said, "Father-in-law, the child understands the importance of opportunities better than you. Time is running out, how can it be wasted on meaningless mundane affairs? But Li Yijie is the leader of the martial arts alliance, even if he is a nominal person, he is in charge of martial arts power. Nangong Xue is not only his junior sister, but the saint has also personally promised marriage. Make good use of this matter, and it will be a favorable chess piece for us. Finding her first is equivalent to controlling Li Yijie, and at the same time, it is also equivalent to controlling the entire martial arts. When the time comes, there will be greater hope. Everything is from the father's cause, please forgive me if I have any offense. ”
Prince Fu snorted coldly and said, "You can speak." But that girl's background is also the most important thing, otherwise no matter how well prepared the things on the side, she may not be able to fight the regent. Let's still follow what Concubine Yun said, 'borrow strength to fight', and take advantage of the reign of the little emperor to borrow his hand to get rid of this big trouble." Don't slack off on me. "Shangguan Yaohua should be cautious. Prince Fu gave another harsh admonition, and then turned around.
Shangguan Yaohua was quite unconvinced, his eyebrows and eyes were arrogant, he snorted coldly, and just brushed his sleeves. Cheng Jiaxuan couldn't stay any longer, ran out of the hideout, and called: "Lord Cheng, you ...... Wait, okay?" If you change places, you are afraid that you will not want to think about it, so you will have to refuse.
Shangguan Yaohua glanced at her angrily and said, "I don't know what happened to Miss Cheng? This king is very busy, and he can't compare to your comfort, I'm afraid I don't have time to gossip with you." ”
Cheng Jiaxuan heard the words "gossip and homely", and couldn't tell what it was like in her heart, she was a little disappointed, but she also had a layer of warmth. She wanted to say a few polite words first, but at this time, all kinds of sorrow came to her heart, and she really didn't want to wait any longer. Staring at a pair of clear big eyes, his tone was solemn and serious, and he said, "I know, actually...... You're my brother, aren't you?"
Shangguan Yaohua's joy and anger were invisible, and his shock disappeared in a flash, and then he returned to his usual indifferent treatment, and said, "Miss Cheng, I advise you, it's best not to call everyone brother indiscriminately." Girls should have some tutors, if their words and deeds are too out of line and immoral, they can only be annoying. ”
Cheng Jiaxuan gave him a call and said that he was so aggrieved that he almost cried. It took a long time to remember that he hadn't made his identity clear to him, and it was understandable that he didn't know him, so he hurriedly said: "Brother, I'm Xiaoxuan......! But I always firmly believe that you must still be alive and sound, and you are waiting for me to find you somewhere. Even at the end of the world, I will not give up easily. Now that I've finally let me see you again, it's really paid off......"
Shangguan Yaohua was unmoved, and said in a deep voice: "I don't understand what you're saying. Get out of the way, don't delay the king's errand!" Cheng Jiaxuan hurriedly said: "Even if you have different identities and different statuses, you are still my brother, and this will never change." I know you are Cheng Jiahua, my only brother Cheng Jiaxuan, don't you recognize me?"
Shangguan Yaohua's heart jumped, seeing her pitiful pleading appearance, it was quite similar to the situation when she was a child when she was coquettish in front of her and begged herself to play with her. Even if Lu Qian is talking nonsense, she may not have to collude with Cheng Jiaxuan for this reason, and force this girl to have a relationship with herself, and there will never be any benefit to him, so it is very likely that she is really her sister.
I don't know how many subordinates of Prince Fu are in this vicinity, and if they hear too much, it will be very unfavorable to the two of them. Judging from the factors of all parties, this clan must not be recognized, otherwise it will do all kinds of harm and no benefit. turned around with a straight face and said coldly: "I'm not Cheng Jiahua." You've misidentified the wrong person. ”
