Coming out of the courtyard, the two of them walked side by side, and Xuanyuan Qing was very curious.
He had always heard that the previous great master of Beiyan Kingdom was like an immortal, and his father was extremely afraid of him when he was still alive. At that time, he had scorned him. It was not until recently that he truly saw the ability of the military advisor that he truly believed that there really were immortals in this world.
.
And who is it that allows such a person to be both a plan and a decoy?
Xuanyuan Qing was very curious.
"Don't ask questions that you shouldn't know!"
Xuanyuan Mang said in a hoarse voice, with a very ugly face. Although this was not the first time that Xuanyuan Qing saw him in such a miserable state, he still felt very embarrassed, and his tone of voice was also not good.
"It makes you seem to know." Xuanyuan Qing couldn't help but mutter.
Speaking of which, this military advisor was hired by Xuanyuan Mang himself. Everyone thought that this military advisor was obedient to Xuanyuan Mang's advice. In fact, it was this military advisor who really called the shots in the city of Dongmeng King.
It's just that this military advisor doesn't seem to be interested in power. Apart from some plans, he hardly participates in it. This is the illusion that others have.
"You!" Xuanyuan Mang's martial arts skills are not low, and the two of them are so close, so he naturally heard his words clearly, and his face turned a little darker. He turned his head and saw that he was dressed exquisitely. It looked like he had picked it up carefully.
, eyes narrowed, "What? You didn't come from the princess just now, did you? You haven't succeeded after so long? You are really a waste!"
"What do you know? I truly love and protect the princess, so naturally I have to respect her wishes."
Xuanyuan Qing retorted.
Xuanyuan Mang sneered, his tone was not polite at all, "Love? Do you regard Xuanyuan Che's children as your own children? That second brother's love is really broad enough."
The words were full of sarcasm. If it were him, since he had already taken something by force, he would continue to take it to the end. What difference does it make now to building a memorial arch after being cheated? And he didn't like it either.
The hobby of being a father.
If he were Xuanyuan Qing, he would give Su Jingqin a bowl of abortion pills to kill the child, then raise her for a few days, then let her conceive his own child, tie her up and let her give birth to the child. After having the child,
Are you still afraid that this dignified fourth princess of Beiyan Kingdom will disobey?
Sure enough, mud can't hold up the wall!
When Xuanyuan Qing heard this, his face immediately became ugly. He was not really a cuckold. He really liked being a father to other people's children. Listening to Xuanyuan Mang's ridicule, he clenched his fists unconsciously, his eyes were filled with surprise and uncertainty.
He looked in the direction of Xiuyu Pavilion, wondering what he was thinking.
**
The next day.
After a good night's rest, the fatigue from running around for days was finally relieved.
Su Jiu's wing was close to the street, and it was already lively when the sky was slightly bright. Different from the desolation at night, there was still more noise during the day.
Fortunately, she went to bed early yesterday, otherwise she would have had a headache if she was woken up so early.
Su Jiu opened the window, and a layer of dust fell.
This is also a characteristic of the northwest. There is a lot of yellow sand. After leaving the royal city, there is a barren desert separated from the Huns. The wind is strong at night, so occasionally you can touch a hand of sand when you open the window.
After a simple wash, Su Jiu walked out of the wing. Su Rongan was still awake. In the lobby on the first floor, the waiter was yawning and wiping the table with a rag. There was still a faint earthy smell in the air. Since entering the northwest, she
I can smell this smell all the time, but after a while, I actually feel that the smell is not unpleasant at all.
Hearing the sound, the waiter looked up and said, "Hey! Sir! You got up really early. What do you want to eat?"
"Have some salted tofu curd and some steamed buns."
"Okay!"
The waiter cheered up, finished wiping the last table, and headed to the kitchen in a hurry.
As the sky became completely bright, the inn gradually became lively.
Some need to get up early to go to work, and some are busy leaving the city.
Su Rong'an also yawned and sat across from Su Jiu. Yesterday, he was busy admiring himself in the mirror. The more he looked at it, the more excited he became. Unexpectedly, he fell asleep.
"Brother, after breakfast, you can go and rest for a while."
Su Jiu pushed Douhua in front of him and said softly.
"Okay." Su Rong'an did not refuse. If it weren't for the mission, according to his past temperament, he would probably have to sleep until three o'clock in the morning before getting up.
There are more people in the lobby, and in a crowded place, chatting is inevitable.
Su Jiu held her chin and watched Su Rongan eating. In fact, her eyes were not focused at all, and she listened carefully to those words.
"Tell me, what exactly happened in this royal city? I have to go out of the city every day to work, but now it is difficult to leave the city and easy to enter. As a result, I have to be late every time and my wages will be deducted."
"Hey! What else could it be? In the final analysis, it's just a fight between vassals and kings, a fight between big shots. It's us little people who suffer. The third prince shouldn't have been allowed to be an emperor in the first place. Now, let's just do our best.
The Eastern Mongolian Kingdom has become a family, and now it is no longer the Eastern Mongolian Kingdom, but the Eastern Mongolian King's District."
Someone is muttering.
"Don't dare to say this nonsense, or you may get into trouble."
"Come just come, when have I ever been afraid?"
The man didn't know whether it was because he didn't sleep well that early in the morning or something else, but he suddenly became angry and slammed the table, almost jumping up.
But at this moment, a scream suddenly came from the street.
Soldiers in armor, holding sharp knives in hand, marched through the city in an orderly manner. When they looked at the direction, they were heading towards this inn.
The man who made the noise suddenly turned pale, and the leader walked into the originally bustling lobby with a sinister look on his face.
The lobby was as quiet as a chicken for an instant.
"My dear, no, you really weren't attracted by that man's crow's mouth, were you?"
Some people couldn't help but think to themselves, turning around and glaring at the person who just spoke - it's all your fault!
The man was so frightened that he knelt down with a plop, his head on the ground, and did not dare to move at all.
The leader looked around and asked, "Where is the shopkeeper?"
The fat shopkeeper walked around the counter and came out shivering.
"Officer, sir, the little one is here."
Su Jiu was still feeling emotional at this time. Many of the shopkeepers she had met seemed to be fat, which showed that there was really a lot of money in the inn.
"Are there any guests who checked in yesterday?"
"Yes! Yes! Sir, please wait a moment, I will go check it out now!"
The shopkeeper was trembling with fear, and felt happy when he heard this. It turned out that he was just checking people, so it would be fine.
But Su Jiu and Su Rongan looked at each other and saw the vigilance in each other's eyes.
Why is it just right, but it happened to be yesterday?
Su Rongan held the cuff. He hid medicinal powder inside the sleeve to prevent emergencies.
Su Jiu shook her head gently, her eyes telling him to wait and see what would happen.
The arrival of these officers and soldiers was too sudden. They did not reveal any whereabouts after entering the city. Why did they come to check people with such a big fanfare? Or did they hear some news in the royal city?
Su Jiu was confused.
The passenger flow in the inn is not small. There are nearly ten people coming and going.
"Are these people still there now?"
The leader looked through it carefully and asked.
"Yes! It's still early and no guests have checked out yet." The shopkeeper replied flatteringly. As long as it doesn't concern their inn, it's easy to handle. As for other people, what does it have to do with him?
"Okay..." The leader handed the registration book to the person behind him, "Let the shopkeeper confirm it one by one, and bring them all here!"
"yes!"
Soon, after a while, all the people who registered yesterday were pulled to the lobby.
Some people were even picked up from their beds, bleary-eyed.
Su Jiu and Su Rongan are naturally among them.
"What are you doing? We are all ordinary people! Why did the officials arrest us?"
One of them was dragged out of the tub during his morning bath. Naturally, he was full of resentment and his hair was still dripping with water.
‘Shua!’——The leader drew the sword from his waist.
"Shut up. Your Majesty suspects that enemy troops have sneaked into the royal city. All those who checked in yesterday will be escorted back for personal interrogation by Your Majesty!"
When the man saw the knife on his neck, he turned pale with fright and did not dare to speak anymore.
The leader looked at the few people with satisfaction, waved his hand, "Take them back."
The two queues of soldiers formed a circle, surrounded ten people including Su Jiu, and took them out of the inn.
Although it was in the name of checking, such a high-profile arrest would inevitably arouse public outrage, so the officers and soldiers did not dare to go too far and kidnap the person back.
Walking out of the inn, Su Jiu saw that several inns next door seemed to be facing the same thing.
For example, almost all inns are connected to each other. They are just a few steps away from each other. It is a competitive relationship but also a cooperative and reciprocal relationship.
"Jiu'er..."
Su Rongan held Su Jiu's wrist and asked in a low voice: "Do we want..."
"Let's take a look." Su Jiu wondered whether such a high-profile search was because they were exposed or because Xuanyuan Che had taken action.
What a coincidence that they did this on the second day they checked into the inn.
Su Jiu doesn't believe in coincidences. Many times, if there are too many coincidences, it must be within the plan.
Su Jiu gently stroked the bracelet and followed the crowd.
Suddenly, the bell of the bracelet made a crisp sound. The sound was not loud, but it was enough for Su Jiu and Su Rongan who were close to hear it.
"What sound?"
Su Rongan looked at Su Jiu in confusion.
Su Jiu didn't speak, but her face became serious, because she could feel that the bell hanging on the bracelet became hotter and hotter as she got closer to the palace.
Su Jiu raised her eyes and looked at the Wangcheng Mansion a hundred meters away, her apricot eyes narrowed slightly.
Brother Jingyi... was warning her.
"Brother Six, let me count to three seconds, heading southeast."
Su Rongan was stunned and immediately responded, "Okay."
"one."
"two……"
"three!"
The two of them cooperated tacitly. The moment Su Jiu finished speaking, Su Rongan threw out two smoke bombs, and Su Jiu threw out a bottle of medicinal powder. This powder is not fatal, it will only make people temporarily blind.
"Ah! My eyes! I can't see!"
"What happened?"
"Someone is trying to escape! Catch them quickly!"
In the smoke, all the sounds were mixed together.
The two of them used Qinggong and left one after the other. Before leaving, Su Jiu subconsciously glanced at Wangcheng Mansion, but vaguely saw a figure in the smoke, wearing a black robe, who appeared at the door without knowing when, his eyes were straight.
