But Chunyu didn't look unusual, so Zhao Huaiyu said tentatively, "you've been waiting for me outside my house? Not anywhere else? "
Chunyu nodded gently: "I've been waiting outside the childe's house for him to come back."
Zhao Huaiyu is worried about whether to kill Chunyu or not, so that the meeting between Zhao Jingxuan and Zhao will not spread to Wang Sheng tonight. But see spring rain unexpectedly is a pair of low brow pleasing to the eye, aggrieved forbearance appearance.
Zhao Huaiyu is in a trance, vaguely remembering what happened to him and Wang Qiu in Pingchang a few months ago. Chunyu didn't tell Wang Sheng.
What's more, Zhao Huaiyu and Zhao Jingxuan have checked it just now, and there is no one else around. I think what Chunyu said is not a lie. But she was clearly sent by Wang Sheng. Why didn't she tell Wang Sheng the truth about Zhao Huaiyu?
After some consideration, Zhao Huaiyu did not attack Chunyu, so as not to arouse Wang Sheng's suspicion. Instead, he decided to improvise to see the performance of Chunyu.
At this time, Zhao Jingxuan returns to Qianli Zuixian. When he enters the room, he sees Xia Ying lying on his bed. He immediately remembers that Xia Ying was seriously injured in order to save him and is still recovering in his bed.
Looking at Xia Ying's pale face, Zhao Jingxuan's tight brows gradually spread. He sat beside Xia Ying and asked, "are you ok?"
Xia Ying's answer is straightforward: "death is not death." For the first time, Zhao Jingxuan showed his gentle side in front of Xia Ying. He raised his hand to touch the broken hair in front of Xia Ying's forehead. His tone was gentle and long: "thank you for saving me this time." Xia Ying turned her eyes with disdain: "and I saved you last time in the alley!"
"Zhao Jingxuan, if you want to be hated by others, don't hang around all day long. Fortunately, I know some martial arts, or you've died thousands of times!"
Zhao Jingxuan sniffed: "it's not me that attracts people to hate! But listen to your tone, yesterday's injury seems to be nothing to you at all. " Xia Ying immediately frowned bitterly: "how can you say it's nothing? At least I can't sing in recent months... "
At that time, Xia Ying did not know that Zhao Jingxuan's words "owe you" were true words. When Zhao Jingxuan said this, he felt extremely guilty. If Xia Ying's father had not protected him, he would not have died miserably in Wang Sheng's hands.
So now, Zhao Jingxuan absolutely can't let Xia Ying dedicate her great youth to Wang Sheng for revenge. Now, he wants to protect his benefactor's daughter, Xia Ying.
A few days later, Wang Sheng has straightened out the affairs of Kyoto and is preparing to return to the palace. When Wang Sheng returned to Kyoto this time, he arrested many high-ranking officials to ask questions. He heard that Zhao's father and son were planning to flee the Zhao Kingdom, so Wang Sheng ordered the gates of Kyoto to be sealed off and the major gates to be strictly guarded.
On this day, Wang Sheng was waiting for news at Dingguo mansion. Towards evening, someone came to report to him: "Dingguo Gong, I have caught Zhao's father and son."
Wang Sheng put down the bamboo slips, stood up, laughed three times, immediately led his men, and specially called Zhao Huaiyu to come with him to the gate of the city. When Wang Sheng arrived at the gate of the city, the father and son of the Zhao family were disheartened, surrounded by a group of soldiers holding weapons, and several relatives were stopped by Wang Sheng's people.
Zhao's father and son are dressed in coarse cloth and short brown. In order to escape from Wang Sheng's pursuit, they have made great efforts. However, with Wang Sheng's careful deployment, they are still doomed to be found.
In just a few months, Wang Sheng went up and down in a big way. This time, compared with Zhao's father and son, it can be said that Feng Shui took turns.
Wang Sheng has today's fortune. It's hard to avoid feeling sarcastic about Zhao's father and son: "my Lord, Prince, I can't imagine that the people who want to avoid the pursuit today are you two." Zhao Jun looks as if he has already accepted his fate. On the contrary, Zhao zhexin is still stubborn and stares at Wang Sheng with his eyes full of blood.
"Wang Sheng, you treacherous minister! You are overbearing and have the heart of treason! Then the soldier put his spear on Zhao zhexin's neck and said, "shut up! How dare you talk to Ding Guogong
But Wang Sheng waved his hand, motioned the soldier to put down his spear, and said, "this is the prince of Zhao. Why don't you scold Wang Sheng?"
Zhao zhexin was so upset that he continued to scold: "Wang Sheng, even if our father and son died in your hands today, someone will come to kill you in the future! Get rid of harm for our country
"Wang Sheng, you have to die! I will not let you go even if I am a ghost! "
In fact, Wang Sheng has a broad mind. In the face of Zhao zhexin's abuse, he doesn't frown and keeps smiling. When Zhao zhexin stopped cursing, Wang Sheng asked Zhao Huaiyu, "in Mr. Zhao's opinion, what should I do with the two father and son of the Zhao family?"
Zhao Huaiyu is condescending and looks down at the embarrassed old and young. He has no sympathy in his heart, because this is only the first step of his revenge. At that time, if Zhao zhexin's father had not cooperated with Wang Sheng inside and outside, Zhao Dejun would not have lost his talisman and was plotted by Wang Sheng. Therefore, all the humiliations suffered by the Zhao family today are just atonement for their sins. It's just too easy to let them die.
So Zhao Huaiyu thought about it and said to Wang Sheng, "yuan liangmou cheated against the emperor, and Ding Guogong has removed it. Now Ding Guogong returns to Beijing in order to stabilize the country and protect the emperor."
"Duke Ding is loyal. How can he be a treacherous minister in the prince's mouth? You and the prince should go back to the palace to have a rest, so that people in the world will not misunderstand Ding Guogong. "
Wen Yan, as like as two peas, smiled when Wang Shengli was thinking. It was exactly the same as Zhao Huaiyu thought.
What Zhao Huaiyu means is to continue to let the father and son of the Zhao family be puppet emperors and princes, and put them under house arrest in the palace, slowly experiencing the pain of life rather than death. In this way, Wang Sheng does not have to bear the name of regicide and treacherous minister.
"Good! No one knows me like Mr. Yu Huai! " After Wang Sheng praised Zhao Huaiyu, he ordered his father and son to be taken back to the palace. When Zhao zhexin was put up by the soldiers, he was infuriated to learn that the strange looking green was Yu Huai.
"You are Yu Huai? It's all my fault that my subordinates didn't work hard. They didn't break you up in the spring and autumn manor that day! Only in this way can you collude with a traitor and endanger the country of Zhao! "“ Yuhuai, an old man of the spring and Autumn period, is highly respected. His disciples are all great people. Why do you become a tyrant when you arrive? "
Do you want to watch the people of Zhao live in dire straits? " Zhao zhexin struggled and scolded so much at the same time, but Zhao Huaiyu just looked at him calmly and finally laughed“ It's my lifelong wish to help Ding Guogong! "
Hearing this, Wang Sheng was also surprised. He bowed to Zhao Huaiyu with gratitude: "thanks for your timely help, Wang Sheng has a chance to turn over."
In Wang Haofang's view, this scene is really dazzling. After the incident, Wang Shengfang returned to Dingguo mansion. Wang Sheng was in a good mood when Zhao's father and son were down, so he held a banquet at home to thank Zhao Huaiyu and celebrate.
Because it was a family dinner tonight, Zhao Jingxuan was also called back. During the dinner, Zhao Jingxuan sat diagonally opposite Zhao Huaiyu, but pretended to have no intersection with Zhao Huaiyu, so as not to arouse Wang Sheng's suspicion. Zhao Huaiyu was the same. Wang Sheng was very happy tonight. He gave thanks to Zhao Huaiyu again and again. Wang Haofang's face was gloomy. After drinking a few glasses of wine, he took an excuse to go out.
Zhao huaiyujing sits at the table and finds that Wang Sheng doesn't have the slightest doubt about him. It must be that Chunyu didn't really monitor him that night, or deliberately didn't report to Wang Sheng. After a while, the dancers had already done two or three dances, and Wang Sheng suddenly signaled her to step down.
The hall suddenly quieted down. Zhao Jingxuan bowed his head to drink. Suddenly, he heard Wang Sheng ask, "Jingxuan, I heard that Zhao's father and son once sent someone to catch you in Qianli drunken fairy?"
Zhao Jingxuan raised his head and said, "father, it's true. However, all the people sent by Zhao's father and son are not afraid."
Wang Sheng put down his wine cup and said with a smile: "I heard that it was the night you were there. The Dingguo mansion played with silk and bamboo, and the orchestra was sweet. People drank until late at night, and when they were all drunk, the family dinner was over.
Wang Sheng sent people to send Zhao Huaiyu back to his house, and Zhao Jingxuan was also sent back to the drunken immortal by a young man. They left Dingguo government together, but they alienated each other like strangers.
When Zhao Jingxuan returned to Qianli drunken fairy, he stopped singing and dancing downstairs. The guests were either upstairs or drunk and went back. Tonight is so quiet, but Zhao Jingxuan's heart is very chaotic. He strode across the stairs, went to the door of Xia Ying and knocked on the door.
Xia Ying knows that even if she doesn't get up and open the door, Zhao Jingxuan has the ability to kick the door open, so Xia Ying deliberately doesn't move. Soon after, the door is kicked open by Zhao Jingxuan.
In the dark room, only a few wisps of bright silver light poured in from the window. Zhao Jingxuan walked to Xia Ying's bed and looked at her for a long time.
After a while, Xia Ying opened her eyes and scolded: "my door has been broken by you! You pay for it yourself. " Zhao Jingxuan clenched his fist in silence, thinking that Xia Ying's injury is not good, he did not pull Xia Ying up.
But he still sternly asked: "how can my father know that you were stabbed for me that day? Did you let it out on purpose? " Xia Ying raised her lips, and a pair of long and narrow Danfeng eyes flattered Bai Sheng: "how can we not tell Ding Guogong about such a righteous act?"
Zhao Jingxuan wanted to wake up Xia Ying, but he didn't expect that he would collapse on the stool and give out a weak smile. It turns out that he is also such a person. He will do anything to get revenge. After a while, Zhao Jingxuan asked in a hoarse voice, "do you know that my father is a suspicious person? If you want to enter my house, he will find out your life experience first
Smell speech, Xia Ying quite confused Leng Leng, don't know why Zhao Jingxuan suddenly and she said this, Zhao Jingxuan know what?
"If you want to be a carefree lady for the sake of power and money for the rest of your life, it's up to you," Zhao Jingxuan continued Having said that, Zhao Jingxuan stood up, but his body shook. Fortunately, he held the table and did not fall.
Seeing this, Xia Ying lifted the silk quilt, got up from the couch and went to Zhao Jingxuan: "what's good today? You have drunk so much Zhao Jingxuan's vision is a little blurred. When he looks over his face, he can only see Xia Ying's beautiful face. Her butterfly like eyelashes cast shadows on her face, and her eyes are full of tenderness.
For a moment, Zhao Jingxuan looked back and said in a sad tone: "there are many rich men in Kyoto. Why do you want to marry my father? Xia Ying, you are like a tiger
Xia Ying's eyes are like water, gazing at Zhao Jingxuan's flushed cheek, a hand suddenly gently attached to Zhao Jingxuan's hot face. Where she lingered at her fingertips, she left a cool film.
She didn't say anything, but when Zhao Jingxuan's eyes were confused, a trace of evil smile flowed out of the corner of her eyes, and then she quietly kissed Zhao Jingxuan's lips.
Zhao Jingxuan is only slightly drunk, and is immediately sober by Xia Ying's sudden kiss. However, Xia Ying didn't mean to finish with a kiss. Her kiss was warm and deep. In her nose, there was not only the mellow smell of Zhao Jingxuan, but also the faint plum fragrance of Zhao Jingxuan.
Zhao Jingxuan was completely confused. He was about to push Xia Ying away, but Xia Ying pushed him down on the couch.
This time, it was Xia Ying who pressed on Zhao Jingxuan and went to untie his coat.
Xia Ying tries to pretend to be calm, but her movements are very cramped. When she unties Zhao Jingxuan's skirt, her fingertips accidentally scratch Zhao Jingxuan's neck. Zhao Jingxuan only felt that his mind was blank, and he really didn't understand what Xia Ying meant. Xia Ying finally takes off Zhao Jingxuan's coat, and she feels confused about what to do next.
After all, it was the first time that she took the initiative. She thought that after meeting Wang Sheng, her innocence in this life would be ruined. So, it's better to give her body to the person she likes now.
When Xia Ying's movement stops, Zhao Jingxuan suddenly turns over and exchanges position with Xia Ying. His movement is very light, for fear of pulling the wound behind Xia Ying.
In the dim moonlight, their eyes are opposite each other, and there are complex feelings in their eyes. After a while, Zhao Jingxuan gently rubbed Xia Ying's face, then fell into her shoulder socket and fell asleep.
At that moment, Xia Ying's uneasy heart gradually calmed down.
And Zhao Jingxuan tightly hugs Xia Ying's body. At the moment, he can clearly hear the heartbeat under his left ear. This night, Zhao Jingxuan is very sad. The sad thing is that after so many years of hard work, he still can't kill Wang Sheng, the dog thief. Even now, Xia Ying has lost her innocence for revenge.
In fact, not long ago, he suddenly understood the intention of Xia Ying tonight, but he could not destroy her most precious things.
He thought that Xia Ying just gave up everything for revenge, but he wanted to protect her. So he can only pretend to sleep to death in the past, which ended the night of confusion.
For a long time, Zhao Jingxuan hasn't fallen asleep. Xia Ying stares at Luo Zhang for a long time. After all, she covers Zhao Jingxuan's quilt and caresses his face. This cool night, Zhao Jingxuan suddenly some doubts. I wonder if Xia Ying likes him?
That night, both Zhao Jingxuan and Xia Ying couldn't sleep well. When they woke up the next day, they were lying face to face on their side. Zhao Jingxuan opened his eyes and saw Xia Ying's smiling eyes.
Zhao Jingxuan pretended to be surprised and shrunk to the bedside: "you, you take advantage of me?" Xia Ying looked at Zhao Jingxuan's upper body without inner clothes and said, "young master, I forgot what happened last night so soon?"
Zhao Jingxuan stares at Xia Ying in horror: "what's the matter?" Xia Ying lifted the quilt and sat down beside Zhao Jingxuan wearing only a bra: "Mr. Zhao Jingxuan is not sure whether Xia Ying really falls in love with him, but Zhao Jingxuan must do it anyway. That is not to let Wang Sheng take advantage of Xia Ying.
These days, Zhao Jingxuan is still doing nothing on the surface. In fact, he has gone to the headquarters of the dark willow Pavilion secretly to arrange what he will do next. At the same time, Wang Sheng has completely controlled Zhao Guochao's Bureau. Most officials in Kyoto are trying to please Wang Sheng, for fear that he would be beaten down by Wang Sheng because he was on the side of Zhao's father and son.
Now, Wang Sheng is in power all over the world. He is so happy that he suddenly feels that he should have fun. So Wang Sheng sent someone to the Qianli Zuixian to inform Zhao Jingxuan, and asked Zhao Jingxuan to invite Xia Ying to the Dingguo government. He wanted to thank the benefactor personally. Zhao Jingxuan can't understand Wang Sheng's true heart any more.
Qianli Zuixian is so famous in Kyoto, and Xiaying is the number one in it. Almost all Kyoto men know that Qianli Zuixian has a beautiful girl named Xiaying.
Wang Sheng was at odds with Yuan Liang and Zhao's father and son before, and his foundation was unstable, so he had to be careful in his conduct. But now, no one in the state of Zhao is more powerful than him, and he is the only one who can cover the sky with only one hand, so no matter what identity Xia Ying is, he doesn't have to worry. It can be imagined that today, Wang Sheng invited Xia Ying to the government of Ding state. It was obvious that he had ulterior motives.
However, Zhao Jingxuan didn't react strongly this time. Instead, he went to Xia Ying's room very quietly and told her coldly, "Congratulations, you finally got what you wanted."
Xia Ying, who was sitting on the chair, was surprised and quickly stood up: "what do you mean? Zhao Jingxuan casually lowered his head and patted his own clothes, saying:" my father asked me to invite you to Dingguo government, and he will thank you personally. " At that moment, the smile on Xia Ying's face was very complicated. Although it was hard for ordinary people to detect the difference, Zhao Jingxuan could still interpret her smile. Excited in the show uneasy, desperate in the show ruthless, such a smile is like a wreck.
Then, Xia Ying reluctantly threw a proud smile at Zhao Jingxuan: "how about, ready to call me aunt from now on?"
Zhao Jingxuan "cut" a, sneer at a way: "the eight characters have not a skim, you first self-respect." Then, Zhao Jingxuan suddenly looked at Xia Ying: "however, the outcome of this matter depends on how you choose."
Xia Ying frowned slightly, unable to think of the deep meaning of Zhao Jingxuan's words, so she dressed up carefully and went to Dingguo mansion with Zhao Jingxuan in a sedan chair. At the moment when the sedan chair fell to the ground, Xia Ying lifted the curtain of the sedan chair and came face to face with a blast of sand. Wang Sheng was leading a group of people to rush out of Dingguo mansion. Xia Ying eyes a Su, and Zhao Jingxuan together after the sedan chair, heard Zhao Jingxuan asked the housekeeper in front of the door: "my father in a hurry to do what?"
The old housekeeper bent his body: "there is news from the palace that a group of assassins in black have secretly sneaked into the palace to take Zhao family and son out of the city!"“ Hearing the news, Ding Guogong quickly led his men to the palace to stop them. " Zhao Jingxuan nodded after listening, and a slight invisible smile appeared in the corner of his eyes.
How can he let Xia Ying have a chance to meet Wang Sheng? These people who entered the palace today are all from the dark willow Pavilion he sent.
His purpose is to lead Wang Sheng away before Xia Ying meets Wang Sheng, and take advantage of this opportunity to plot against Wang Sheng on the way. For a moment, Zhao Jingxuan turned around to look at Xia Ying, walked to her side, and said in a low voice: "see? No matter how brave my father is, he's living in fear. " Xia Ying disapproved of the cold hum: "today is not coincidental, another day to continue to come."
Having said that, Xia Ying intentionally or unintentionally looked at Zhao Jingxuan a few more eyes, always feel that this time together, it seems that someone carefully designed the situation. Just when Xia Ying was full of doubts about Zhao Jingxuan, a group of people in black with swords rushed to the gate of Dingguo mansion. Zhao Jingxuan was so worried that he didn't know who sent them. I saw that these people in black were very aggressive. Just looking at the posture of holding a knife, I knew that they were not ordinary people.
As a result, Zhao Jingxuan immediately leads Xia Ying into Dingguo mansion. The old housekeeper who is left behind is not as smart as Zhao Jingxuan and Xia Ying, and has been killed by the man in black. When the porter panicked, before he could close the door of the mansion, he was killed by the fierce man in black, and the government of Dingguo was in a flood of blood.
Because Wang Sheng just went out and took all the soldiers away, leaving only a few bodyguards at home, and the bodyguards were not the opponents of the people in black, so the Dingguo government was in a mess soon. Zhao Jingxuan pulls Xia Ying to run through the corridor desperately, but finds that the corridor has been blocked by people in black. Xia Ying's injury is not healed, so he doesn't move.
After the scene froze for a while, Zhao Jingxuan took the lead in breaking the deadlock and asked the man in black, "who are you? How dare you break into Dingguo government and commit murder The man in black was ready to move and said in a hoarse voice: "we are ordered to take Wang Sheng's dog head! But Wang Sheng leads the troops into the palace. We can only kill all his family to eliminate the hatred in his heart! "
Zhao Jingxuan frowned, thinking that these people were not sent by Zhao's father and son? Then, Xia Ying rushed forward, pointed at these people in black, and said harshly, "you despicable people, you are cruel to the innocent people in Dingguo government!" The man in black sneered: "Wang Sheng, the dog bandit, is in trouble with the court. He is cruel and ruthless. He should be killed even nine families!
”At the end of the speech, the group of people in black rushed to Zhao Jingxuan and Xia Ying with their swords one by one. Xia Ying has ten silver needles in her hands. She is about to kill these assassins, but she sees a blue robe flying from the corridor. This man held a long sword in his hand. The light of the white sword flickered several times, and he beat back the front assassins with three or two strokes.
But these assassins are really persistent. They are determined not to kill Zhao Jingxuan. Zhao Huaiyu has to protect Zhao Jingxuan and Xia Ying in front of them, and one is worth ten. Xia Ying pursed a smile and immediately replied, "I'm ok."
At this time, Zhao Jingxuan came forward from the back of the pillar and mocked Zhao Huaiyu: "Mr. Yuhuai, right? Why do you keep these two men in black? Don't kill them yet Zhao Huaiyu adjusted her mood, took a light look at Zhao Jingxuan and said, "don't worry, young master. Just keep these two people, and you can find out who is behind them."
Hearing the speech, Zhao Jingxuan said sarcastically: "Mr. Yu Huai is a bit ruthless in his work. He has killed so many people, but he still has to find out the master behind the scenes." Xia Ying looked at Zhao Jingxuan in surprise: "they want to kill your father, how can you still face them?" Zhao Huaiyu looked at Zhao Jingxuan for a moment. Then she said, "it's dangerous here. It's better for you to stay away. Goodbye!"
After that, the guards of Dingguo government took the two men in black down. Zhao Huaiyu also brushed her sleeves and turned away from Zhao Jingxuan and Xia Ying. After Zhao Huaiyu left, Zhao jingxuanfang said to Xia Ying, "today there is such a big accident in Dingguo government. My father certainly has no time to see you."
Even if Xia Ying is a little lost, she knows that Wang Sheng has been plotted. Zhao Huaiyu has captured the assassin and is questioning him. Once she finds out who is behind the scenes, Wang Sheng will not let him go easily.
In addition, through this matter, Xia Ying's doubts about Zhao Jingxuan also disappeared.
Previously, Xia Ying thought that Zhao Jingxuan was responsible for the accident in the palace so that she could not see Wang Sheng. Unexpectedly, Zhao Jingxuan was almost attacked by assassins.
So the assassin and the man who went to the palace to meet the father and son of the Zhao family must have been sent by the same person. Xia Ying thought that today's event was just a coincidence, so she got rid of Zhao Jingxuan's wariness.
Later, Zhao Jingxuan sent people to send Xia Ying back to Qianli Zuixian, while he stayed in Dingguo.
