Late at night, Xu Xiao went to Prince An's Mansion.
King An seemed very happy that he did not reveal his identity, and said: "Lu Yunhong is nothing more than that."
Xu Xiao pursed her lips and showed a smile of success.
In fact, he was thinking that although he didn't know why Lu Yunhong didn't expose him, he knew very well that Lu Yunhong knew his true identity.
But now, he doesn't want to tell King An about this news.
Because Yao Yu's choice made him understand that whether it was him or his group of brothers, everyone was just a plaything in the hands of King An, and would be discarded at any time when he got tired of playing with it.
The freedom they once hoped to gain by serving King An would never be available to them in their lifetime.
Even if he dies, he will be used by King An, and he will have no peace.
Xu Xiao seemed particularly calm at this moment, because after he actually made the decision, he discovered that things were not as difficult as he imagined.
He took the initiative and said: "I hear what they mean. It seems that they are not planning to cause trouble for the prince, for fear that the prince will pretend to be crazy and stay in the capital."
"Pretending to be crazy?"
"Yes."
King An sneered, but his eyes lit up as he smiled.
He said: "Why didn't I think of it? Find a madman..."
Xu Xiao raised his eyes and saw that King An cautiously stopped speaking and did not say any more.
He said to Xu Xiao: "You were originally a student of opera, and you are also the best at observing words and expressions, so they did not doubt you. In this case, you should not come to my mansion often, and there is no need to go to the other gardens. I will find someone else.
Watch Liu Qing."
"What you have to do now is to return to the Lu family and let everyone know as much as possible that you have close ties with the Lu family on the pretext of taking care of Yao Yu."
Xu Xiao nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.
But this time, he made a request.
He said to Prince An: "Please have mercy on the prince and let Hua'er leave the house. I will marry her to the countryside and won't let her ruin the prince's affairs."
After hearing this, King An sneered coldly: "I like Hua'er very much, so I took her as my concubine. Since you want someone to take care of you, what about Mei'er?"
Mei'er was originally Xu Xiao's second junior sister. She had her tongue cut out because she resisted Prince An. Now she is a girl working hard in the palace.
Xu Xiao didn't expect to be able to rescue Hua'er from the fire pit the first time, but he was very satisfied with being able to rescue the second junior sister. Dangjie nodded and said: "Mei'er is fine too. Thank you, Your Majesty."
Soon, when Xu Xiao left from the back door of the palace, he took Meier with him.
Mei'er is only fifteen this year, but she is so thin that she could fall over if the wind blows. She looks like a little girl of twelve or thirteen years old.
The moment she left the palace, she stopped and looked back in disbelief.
The woman guarding the gate spat and said coldly: "Still not leaving? Little goblins like you will die outside sooner or later."
Xu Xiao frowned, turned around and said angrily: "If you say one more thing, I will take you out next time and torture you to death."
The woman didn't dare to say anything anymore, so she quickly closed the back door and ran away.
Xu Xiao held Mei'er's hand and found that her hand was very cold and her whole body was trembling.
Xu Xiao said: "If you don't want to stay in the capital, I will send you back to the countryside and ensure that no one can find you."
Meier cried and held his hand tightly, then shook her head.
Xu Xiao comforted her and said: "Then let's find a place to live first, how about you write me your thoughts and I will help you arrange it?"
Mei'er nodded, and the two senior brothers and sisters first went to Xu Xiao's small courtyard outside. It was a courtyard given to him by the Xu family's grandmother after he returned to the Xu family. Even Xu Jing didn't know about it.
The moment he opened the door, Uncle Ding, the doorkeeper, gave him a wink.
His heart sank, and when he thought someone from Prince An's Mansion was looking for him, he saw Uncle Ding turning slightly to the side and leaving the open hall with the light on and the door open.
Lu Yunhong was sitting in the open hall, looking at him quietly with deep eyes.
Xu Xiao held Mei'er's hand tightly, thinking that everything that could not be avoided was coming, but it didn't matter, he had no intention of hiding it anymore. Even if Lu Yunhong didn't come to him, he would go to Lu Yunhong.
He just didn't expect that Lu Yunhong would know about such a secret place.
After handing Mei'er to Uncle Ding to take him down, Xu Xiao went to see Lu Yunhong.
It was also at this time that Xu Xiao discovered that Lu Yunhong had brought wine, but not for him.
Because Lu Yunhong was drinking from a wine bottle, he didn't intend to share it with him.
Xu Xiao suddenly started to beat the drum. It didn't look like Lu Yunhong came to talk to him, but rather like he couldn't sleep at night and just found a place to drink.
Sure enough, I heard Lu Yunhong say: "I was out for a walk, and I remembered that your place is very quiet, so I came over. Would you mind?"
Xu Xiao: "..."
Does he dare?
His current identity is just a layer of paper. If Lu Yunhong breaks through it, he will have nothing, not even the bargaining chip to deal with King An.
When Lu Yunhong saw that he was silent, he said bluntly: "Don't worry, I won't kill you."
Xu Xiao: "..."
Lu Yunhong really knows everything.
Xu Xiao sat down, ready to wait for the verdict of fate. In this life, he had few opportunities to choose, and he usually just took it easy. He was used to it.
Lu Yunhong did not look at him, but looked at the bright moon and stars in the night sky, and said: "I don't want to kill anyone she knows, not even one. I've killed too many people, and I'm afraid she will think I'm dirty."
Xu Xiao knew that he was talking about Wang Xiu, and couldn't help thinking that even a proud person like Lu Yunhong had things he was afraid of, so the difficulties in front of him didn't seem to be that difficult for him.
Then Lu Yunhong turned around and said to him: "If King An can't succeed, you don't have to work for him anymore. As for those people you care about, as long as you are still useful, I believe King An will not attack them."
"Of course, if you can't protect yourself, then don't dream."
Xu Xiao's throat was a little dry. He pursed his lips and asked anxiously: "Are you going to deal with King An?"
Lu Yunhong sneered, then looked at Xu Xiao and said: "He coveted someone he shouldn't have, and he should pay the price for it. It's the same for everyone, not just An Wang."
Xu Xiao's heart trembled. He always felt that Lu Yunhongyi had something to say, but he was worried about whether it was Yao Yu?
But then he denied it, it couldn't be Yao Yu, Yao Yu was not worthy of letting Lu Yunhong take action.
That would be someone else, but who could it be?
He found that Lu Yunhong was not as able to sit still as he appeared. For example, tonight, he was drinking too much.
It wasn't an accident that Lu Yunhong came to see him, but it wasn't intentional either. It was like he was temporarily depressed and didn't know where to express his feelings, so he just came here.
Xu Xiao said: "If you want to deal with King An, I will help you collect evidence. I have no requirements. After the matter is completed, just don't implicate my brothers and sisters."
Lu Yunhong sneered: "I don't even bother to touch you, do I know them?"
"Don't worry, I have no interest in the life or death of any of you. You are still your Xu Xiao. As long as you give him any information that King An wants."
"Xu Jing is not that loyal to him, but he has something that fell into Prince An's hands. If you can solve this problem for Xu Jing, maybe Xu Jing will really recognize you as his son?"
Xu Xiao has also been trying to find out why Xu Jing was controlled by King An, but he couldn't find anything.
Now Lu Yunhong sounded like he knew, and he quickly asked: "What's the reason?"
