Hibiscus Tent: The Prime Minister’s palm is reborn
Chapter 346 Elusive
In Luo'an City, the sun sets, the dusk falls, and a touch of pink and purple remains on the skyline.
It's time to go home.
A carriage drove slowly in the distance and stopped in front of the palace. When the people in the carriage got out, the soldiers had already dispersed the pedestrians in half the street.
Yuchiyuan jumped out of the car first and stood guard on one side.
Immediately, a slender white hand reached out from the curtain, and with a slight lift of its sharp-jointed fingers, someone bent down and walked out. He was wearing a long ferret, and it was only when he moved that the hem of the ink-colored lotus pattern pattern was revealed underneath. .
After getting off the car, he just stood at the front of the car, not in a hurry to enter the house. He put his hands in his sleeves and turned his face sideways, not knowing what he was looking at.
His long hair was tied up high, and there was no smile on his jade-like face. His dark and translucent eyes were slightly narrowed, and his cold eyes swept over him, making people afraid to look directly at him.
Everyone hung their heads and waited.
Xiao Jingnan, who walked down next, couldn't help but look over, but the street was empty and there was no one...
The steward who was waiting to greet him made no move. He raised his face, his eyes only dared to fall on the narrow chin.
"Your Highness?" He called softly.
Yu Wenjue glanced back at the road, "There is no need to mobilize troops like this in the future."
Having said that, he walked towards the vermilion door without any haste.
Xiao Jingnan followed him, thinking that he didn't like to show off like this.
"His Highness doesn't like publicity, but they are not deliberately trying to show off, but are considering His Highness's safety. After the changes in the autumn, the Lord has made repeated orders to ensure His Highness's personal safety."
"Besides—" Xiao Jamnan paused and lowered his voice, "The war is about to begin. Your Highness cannot make any mistakes."
Yu Wenjue refused to comment, tilted his head and said to the cold-faced guard: "Do as I say."
When Xiao Jingnan saw this, he immediately said: "Your Highness, please don't forget that the King of Jin is eyeing the tiger. According to reports from spies, he is determined to be a thief and wants to——"
Hearing this, Yu Wenjue stopped and looked at him: "Assassinate me."
There was no smile on his face, but he could not hide his sarcasm.
"Since Your Highness knows, why do you lower your guard?" Xiao Jingnan was even more surprised.
Yu Wenjue continued to walk forward: "The Lord will send me to conquer Qi in the next year. This matter is no longer a secret in Luo'an City. Now there is only an imperial edict."
Xiao Jingnan said quickly: "Because of this, King Jin is so anxious. There is not much time left before the New Year. King Jin is afraid that His Highness will seize the military power in his hands, so he is deliberately planning to deal with you."
Yu Wenjue pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "Then keep half and withdraw the other half."
Xiao Jingnan frowned. His Highness was really stubborn. After getting along with him for more than half a year, he still couldn't figure out what he was thinking.
Yu Wenjue turned to look at him: "What do you think King Jin wants?"
Jamel Xiao was slightly surprised: "Of course it's that location."
Yu Wenjue nodded lightly: "But now he is focusing all his attention on me. If I confront him head-on, what will be the result?"
Xiao Jingnan hesitated for a moment, and when he saw Yu Wenjue's calm expression, he said frankly: "His Royal Highness has a shallow foundation and is not strong enough to compete with him. I'm afraid..."
Yu Wenjue looked at him: "Why is Yu Wenke so unclear? The Han Dynasty says that relying on the greatness of the country, the people who care about the people and want to see power over the enemy are called arrogant soldiers, and those who are arrogant soldiers will be destroyed."
Arrogant soldiers will be defeated?
Xiao Jingnan became more and more confused as he listened: "What does this have to do with His Highness strengthening the guard?"
Yu Wenjue smiled calmly: "This time, I want his assassination to succeed."
Xiao Jingnan was surprised: "Could it be that His Highness wants to repeat his old tricks?"
On that day, the emperor was escorted by His Highness to the palace to recuperate. This was just a pretense. The assassination on the way was also a deliberate attempt to let Yu Wenqi relax his vigilance and mistakenly believe that not only were they seriously injured, but the palace was also undefended.
"But why is this so? How can His Highness lead the troops on an expedition if he is injured?"
Xiao Jingnan sighed secretly, this old wound would come back again and again. If it wasn't for military power, why would he have to bite the bullet?
Yu Wenjue shook his head: "Only if I am seriously injured can I not have to lead the troops."
Xiao Jingnan was startled and frightened, but after thinking about it, he seemed to understand.
His Highness grew up in the State of Qi, and many of the soldiers and generals of the State of Qi were his old subordinates. When they met each other in war years later, how could they remain indifferent? In the final analysis, they still missed their old friendship.
But the Lord couldn't refuse, so he could only use the opportunity of being injured by the assassination to refuse openly.
Jamel Xiao pursed her lips, feeling embarrassed to say anything else.
He glanced at Yu Wenjue's face again, but felt something was wrong.
No matter what His Highness is like, I am a Zhou person through and through. How could I...
Xiao Jingnan was hesitant and didn't know what to say, but he heard Yu Wenjue say: "Although I can't go, you have to go."
Xiao Jingnan was stunned. He was right to say that, but it was really uncomfortable to hear. It was like a person who was greedy for life and fearful of death and retreated from the battle, but ordered others to throw their lives and shed blood.
Yu Wenjue glanced at it and understood, but without any explanation, he walked straight to his courtyard.
Jamel Xiao looked at the distant figure, his chest seemed to be blocked and stuffy.
Logically speaking, His Highness is not——
"Hey!"
Before her palm fell, Xiao Qianyi's arm was tightly clasped. Xiao Jingnan grabbed the attacker and swung it away, about to fall to the ground. Xiao Qianyi used the force to turn over in the air and managed to escape, just to face him face to face.
"How old are you to still play this trick?"
Seeing the person coming clearly, Xiao Jingnan felt funny and helpless. He helped the person stand up and hurriedly checked her arm, for fear that he was heavy-handed and injured her unpreparedly.
Xiao Qianyi brushed off his hand, took a step back, and smiled nonchalantly: "I saw you standing here stunned when I came out of the Imperial Physician's Order. Why are you so dazed?"
Jamel Xiao shook his head: "I just got lost in my thoughts for the moment."
Xiao Qianyi was stunned, blinked and looked around, and deliberately joked: "I don't know, maybe I am looking at someone..."
Jamel Xiao was about to explain, but he responded to the tone of her words, and his face became slightly hot: "No big, no small."
At this point, thinking of what happened just now, I couldn't help but sigh, but I didn't want Xiao Qianyi to notice, so I just changed the topic.
"I've been living in the palace for some time now——"
Unexpectedly, as soon as he started to speak, Xiao Qianyi snatched him away: "No, after moving in, I feel that life goes by so fast. It's more comfortable than in our Yinyue Mansion. In my free time, I can go out for shopping at will..."
Xiao Jingnan stared blankly and saw her saying like she was pouring beans: "Why don't you think about going back to Yin Yue Mansion?"
Xiao Qianyi was suddenly interrupted and was a little surprised: "Why do you want to go back to Yinyue Mansion? Aren't we going to send troops south after the new year? Could it be that something happened when we entered the palace today? Is it because Yu Wenke—"
"Don't talk nonsense about things that don't exist."
"Then what's wrong with you?" Xiao Qianyi looked confused.
"But I'm just asking, didn't you say you were bored before and said you were homesick?"
Xiao Qianyi's eyebrows jumped lightly and she immediately waved her hand: "Didn't you say that was before? Now I think it's pretty good."
pretty good?
Xiao Jingnan frowned slightly, and looking at the twinkling light in Xiao Qianyi's eyes, his heart became heavier and heavier.
Xiao Jingnan thought for a while and said, "Didn't you ask me to send someone to investigate what happened at Qi Army Camp that day?"
"How? Have you found out who it is?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Qianyi suppressed her emotions and became quite nervous.
