The second son of the prince's family

Lin Shijiang arranged a room for Shrike to live in temporarily. In the room next to Shrike, there were two people guarding the door. When passing by, Shrike couldn't help but glanced at him, vaguely seeming to see the figure of a young man.

It's none of your business, in this inexplicable place, it's better not to have too much curiosity, Shrike pulled Shi Dong, opened the door of the room and was about to go in, but Lin Shijiang stopped him suddenly.

"Wait," Shrike turned his head with doubts, Lin Shijiang stood at the door next door, and said, "You should meet this one too, he also knows the Second Young Master."

Um?Who's inside?

The door opened, and Mu Qiu was seen. When Mu Qiu saw so many people coming in, panic flashed in his eyes, and he asked with a guilty conscience, "Is there anything else?"

Lin Shijiang said as gently as possible: "There is someone you should want to see." As he spoke, he revealed the Shrike walking out the door behind him.

The two were taken aback when they saw each other, and then even though they were a little baffled, they didn't know each other. Why did Lin Shijiang think that the two of them should meet?

Shrike asked Lin Shijiang, "Who is this?"

"This is Mu Qiu, who was the one who took care of the Second Young Master in Jinsha City before."

Shrike raised his eyes and looked at Mu Qiu. He was fair-skinned and handsome, and he didn't look like a servant serving others.

With apprehension in Mu Qiu's eyes, Yingying clearly nodded to Shrike, and then cast a shy glance at Lin Shijiang. This look was hazy, with an inexplicable meaning, and Shrike frowned when he saw it. , I feel that there is something strange about him.

Lin Shijiang didn't care about his small gestures, and pointed to Shrike again and said, "This is Shrike, the person around you before you followed that young master."

Shrike? !

Mu Qiu looked at the young man standing in front of him in shock for a moment, his dark eyes were unhurried and intelligent, and his clothes were shabby, but he still couldn't hide his calm demeanor.

She looks only fifteen or sixteen years old, but her eyes have a transparency that people of her age don't have.

His brows were slightly frowned, as if he was a little puzzled.

But, how could he be alive?

Isn't he already dead?Why are you showing up here now?

For a moment, Mu Qiu couldn't hide the horror in his eyes, and stared at Shrike in a daze.

Both Lin Shijiang and Shrike looked at him, not understanding why he showed such an expression.Shrike secretly paid attention, but he didn't show anything, but nodded lightly, and the idea of ​​asking him about the young master's situation was also dispelled in his heart.

Mu Qiu regained his composure, quickly lowered his head slightly, forced a smile and said, "So you are the Shrike. Young Master often mentions you to me. Seeing you is worse than hearing about it for a long time. I believe Young Master will be very happy to see you."

His thoughts would turn, and he couldn't help but look at Shrike secretly, wanting to see how he looked like him, and asked Pei Qian to keep him by his side.

But after looking at it for a long time, I didn't see any similarities.

When Shrike heard him mention Pei Qian, his heart moved, and he suppressed the ups and downs in his heart. He nodded and said, "It's nothing. I'll go back to my room first. I've been walking for a day today. I'm too tired. I want to rest first." a while."

Lin Shijiang made a gesture of invitation and told him to go to rest quickly.

His attitude towards Shrike was not generally gentle and peaceful, and he was not at all like the people in the army that Shrike had seen with Pei Qian.

People in the army have always been displeased with the pampered young master in the capital and the arrogant servants around him. Although Pei Qian restrained the three of them very strictly, those in the army never looked at them. .

After entering the room, Shrike asked Shi Dong to close the door tightly.

Shrike didn't care about looking at the furnishings of the room, and quickly walked two steps in the room, frowning tightly, as if he was thinking about something.

Shi Dong just stood aside and didn't speak, just looked at him.

After a while, Shrike seemed to have made up his mind, turned his head to look at Shi Dong, and said softly, "Come here."

Shi Dong obediently walked over, Shrike took his arm, and whispered: "I don't believe what that Lin said just now, they said they wanted to save the young master, who knows if he wants to harm the young master."

After all, when he went back to the palace to find help, there were only a few people who were willing to follow him out, and when he couldn't find him on the mountain, those people were unwilling to continue looking.

Shrike still remembered what those people said at that time: "There is no clue at all, where do we go to find it? Isn't this a waste of time? Our buddies don't want to spend time here with you."

"I was robbed by bandits. It's been a few days. Maybe I'm dead. If you don't find it, you can comfort yourself. People don't know where they are alive. Give yourself something to think about, ah, it's better than finding someone." , looking at the dead body is uncomfortable."

When Shrike thought of that time, his heart was filled with hatred.

They don't want to look for it, they look for it by themselves!

At that time, there were people chasing after them, and no one would come to Pei Qian at all.

Pei Qian didn't have close friends in the capital, and he didn't interact with people in other courtyards in the palace. Now these people who ran out under the banner of saving Pei Qian came from nowhere.

Shrike suspected very much that they knew that the young master was still alive and wanted to kill him.

As for the city gate being closed and unable to enter and exit, it may be because of these people.

Shrike whispered: "Let's take a rest first, you will go out later to check how many people are here, we will sneak out when it is late at night, we cannot stay here."

Shi Dong didn't have any opinion on his words, so he nodded immediately and said, "Okay."

Not long after, someone knocked on the door outside, Shrike asked Shi Dong to open the door, it was a night snack.

Shrike thanked the man and let the man go down. Looking at the supper, he finally decided not to eat it, even though he and Shi Dong were very hungry.

Shi Dong took out two pieces of dry food wrapped in cloth from his bosom, broke them apart vigorously, handed one of them to Shrike, and rewrapped the remaining ones and put them away.

Holding the hard cake in his hand, Shrike said softly, "Eat the rest, we'll be there soon, don't worry about it."

Shi Dong shook his head, smiled, and said, "I'm not hungry, you can eat."

Shrike pursed his lips, turned around and bit off the dry food with great difficulty, swallowing it, even though his throat was sore and his eyes were filled with tears, he still swallowed it.

In the middle of the night, in the dead of night, I stayed quietly in the room, only hearing the chirping of birds outside, or the crackling of candles when they were burning brightly.

Hearing that the guards guarding outside the next door seemed to have left, Shrike winked at Shi Dong.

"Then, let me go out and have a look."

Shrike nodded, and Shi Dong stood up and walked to the door. Shrike looked at his back and couldn't help but whispered: "Be careful."

Shi Dong turned his head and grinned at him, and nodded vigorously with indescribable stupidity.

At this time, everything was quiet, and even the neighbors could not hear anything.

Shi Dong came back soon, Shrike stood up and looked at him excitedly, Shi Dong nodded silently, Shrike understood what he meant, the joy in his heart was indescribable, walked over and grabbed Shi Dong's arm, and said: " Walk!"

The two of them went out from the door gently, and carefully closed the door tightly. There was no one guarding the door next door. On the contrary, a large lock was hung on the door.

The Shrike took one look and didn't care.

What kind of person follows the young master, just like him, the young master must not like a person like him, so how can he let him follow him?

The two sneaked through the narrow corridor, walked to the back kitchen, and turned out the window.

……

Mu Qiu couldn't fall asleep in the room, stared at the darkness above his head over and over again, listened carefully to the next door, but there was no movement at all, did he go to bed so early?

There was a stagnant anger in his heart, and he didn't know where it came from.How could that Shrike not be dead?Damn it!

Moreover, they were all captured from the outside, why did they have such a good attitude towards that Shrike, but sent someone to guard them outside?

Mu Qiu was very unwilling, it was always like this, no matter where she went, she was always ignored.

After a while, he got out of bed, walked to the wall, put his ears against the wall, and listened carefully for a while. It seemed that something was being said there, but because the voice was too low, he couldn't hear clearly.

Mu Qiu bit her lower lip and lay down on the bed again.

After a while, the two guards outside the door left. Mu Qiu was overjoyed, and quickly jumped out of bed and walked to the door, and opened the door with his hands, but only heard a bang, and the door was locked outside with a chain.

Mu Qiu's face was ashen, and he kicked the door fiercely angrily. The door only moved twice, and he turned around angrily and walked inside.

After taking two steps, he was very unwilling, turned around and kicked twice hard, causing his feet to hurt.

In the middle of the night, Mu Qiu couldn't sleep more and more, walked to the wall, knocked on the next door, coughed again, and whispered: "Srike, are you asleep?"

After a while, no movement was heard, Mu Qiu frowned, his face became impatient, but his voice became louder: "Shrike? Me, can I talk to you?"

However, there was still no movement next door.

While Mu Qiu was angry, he felt a little strange. Logically, Shrike didn't know himself. Hearing that he was related to his young master, he should take the initiative to contact him. But he had already talked to them. It didn't make sense. Take care of yourself.

Mu Qiu knocked a few more times stubbornly, but still no one responded, and gradually felt something was wrong.

He strode to the door and began to knock vigorously on the door: "Come on, come on!"

After a while, I heard someone shouting while walking: "What are you shouting in the middle of the night?!"

Mu Qiu took a step back, and said from inside the door: "Quickly open the door, I, I want to go to the toilet..." The last few words were enchanting and tactful, low and shy.

But the person who came did not hear clearly: "What?"

"I want to show respect..." Mu Qiu was impatient.

"There are so many problems!" The man opened the door and said to Mu Qiu: "Be careful what happens in the future, if you offend our master, I'm afraid your head will be changed."

Mu Qiu was startled, and nodded repeatedly. After coming out, he turned to the Shrike's door and looked at it. There was still no movement inside. He couldn't help but took a step forward, but was stopped by the guard, "The toilet is over here. Don't walk around!"

Mu Qiu nodded obediently, walked to his side, and said innocently: "Brother, the people living here have been quiet all night, do you think something will happen?"

The guard frowned and said, "Just take care of yourself, what to do with so much talk, go quickly."

Mu Qiu cursed inwardly, and walked outside frantically.

The guard behind asked the guard next to him to go to the next door to see if something really happened, they couldn't afford it.

As soon as Mu Qiu walked to the corner of the corridor, he heard an exclamation from inside: "The people in this room are gone!"
