After the wine was warmed up, Qin Daomian, who was dressed as a commoner, sat in the private room of the restaurant and poured a glass of wine for the white-bearded old man who was sitting opposite him.

"How dare you trouble the Third Prince." The old man took the jug respectfully, first poured a glass of wine for Qin Daomian, and then poured a glass for himself.

"Grandpa lost a lot of good generals to avenge my father, I should respect you for this wine." Qin Daomian raised his glass and drank it.

The old man also raised his glass to Qin Daomian and said: "The kindness that the late emperor treated me was as great as a mountain. King Jia rebelled and usurped the throne. How can the revenge of the late emperor be avenged by killing a little concubine? The death of that concubine is nothing more than In the beginning, it was King Jia and the Shen family who killed the late emperor, and this revenge must be avenged."

"With the strength of the Shen family, I'm afraid the road ahead will be difficult for you and me." Qin Daomian couldn't help but look sad.

The old man laughed: "Shen Shimao can't come back."

"What do you mean by Grandpa's words?" Qin Daomian was puzzled.

The old man smiled and said nothing.If there is no accident, Shen Shimao will definitely die on the battlefield. With the strategy of the old fox Shen Shimao, if it weren't for the Jingzhong family to force his trusted lieutenant to betray him, how could he be trapped in a tight siege and wait for You Chan to lead the army? to save.

Through the window of the private room of this restaurant, you can see the imperial palace.

Under the restaurant, a carriage from the Princess Mansion passed by slowly.Qin Daomian glanced at the carriage, and said to the old man: "I don't know if the cousins ​​who went to the banquet have returned home safely, but I can't tell which house the carriage downstairs is from."

The old man glanced at it and said: "The carriage of Captain Huguo. As for my little granddaughters, I ordered the assassins who sneaked into the princess's mansion according to what you said, only to kill Jinyang and Concubine Ji, and not to hurt the guests. Don't worry. .”

Qin Daomian nodded, but there was another person in his mind.I don't know if Miss Gu's family is also at the banquet. I wonder if she was frightened by the assassin sent by my grandfather?

***

After Shen Xiao woke up from the coma, he was in a trance. Gu Wenqiao sat in front of the bed and fed Shen Xiao the soothing soup.

Shen Xiao, who was extremely sad, lost the rebelliousness of the past, opened his mouth obediently and drank the medicine when it was handed to his mouth.

Gu Wenqiao just fed the medicine and didn't say anything about condolences.I am sorry for your loss?To others, it is just an ordinary sentence, but to those who have lost their loved ones, this sentence is tantamount to nonsense.

"A man who has experienced many battles, how could..." Shen Xiao drooped his shoulders, tears slid down his cheeks.She still couldn't believe that her father was gone, and the two armies had suffered countless casualties in the battle, but as a commander, she might be defeated, but she would definitely not die easily.Especially as my father is getting old, he has been in command more than personally charging into the battle these years, and You Chan has witnessed with his own eyes that our army actually has the upper hand in the battle against the He Nie tribe.

You Chan, who has not led the army for many years, can still repel the enemy. How could his father risk his life?

Shen Xiao couldn't figure it out.But she felt that her spirit suddenly collapsed, Jinyang broke with her, and her father also left her.From now on in this world, she has to face everything alone.

"Cry if you want to cry, and lie down and sleep for a while when you are tired." Gu Wenqiao also cried secretly, his eyes were still red, but in front of Shen Xiao, he could only hold back his sadness: "I will arrange the general's funeral , you don't have to worry."

funeral?Shen Xiao remembered after listening to Gu Wenqiao, there are still many things waiting for her to do after her father's death, she suddenly felt that it is good to have Gu Wenqiao, this weak little cousin has become her only support now .

Jin Yang brought a group of masters disguised as ordinary guards to the General's Mansion.No matter how anxious she was now, she didn't dare to make too much noise because of General Shen's death.

"You guys wait here. The two senior sisters will follow me into the mansion." Jin Yang clutched the knife wound on his waist that had intensified due to his actions, and was helped out of the sedan chair by Lian Hua.She moved a little eagerly, and wanted to run to the gate of the general's mansion before she could stand still.

"Princess, be careful. Why don't you take a sedan chair to see Miss Xiao?" Lianhua urged uneasily.

Jin Yang turned a deaf ear to Lian Hua's words, compared to Lian Yue whose life and death were uncertain, what was her little injury?

The girl from the General's Mansion who opened the door was so frightened that she immediately knelt down to pay her respects when she saw the majestic posture outside the door.

"Where's your eldest lady?" Jin Yang glanced at the majestic and magnificent General Protector's Mansion, where few people lived, and asked the servant who was kneeling on the floor.

"Go back to Your Highness, the princess. Miss fainted..." After finishing speaking, the girl lowered her head and wiped away her tears.Those who are servants are most afraid of major changes in the master's house, because their own fate depends entirely on the master's house. Once the old general leaves, no one knows what will happen to the general's house in the future.

Everyone's sorrow is real.The old general who was too gracious to others passed away suddenly, and he was also worried about his future.

"My princess already knows about General Shen, so I came here to visit Xiao'er. I know the way, you don't have to wait on me, step back!" Jin Yang quickened his steps towards Shen Xiao's yard.

Lianhua, who was supporting Jinyang, had to quicken her pace to barely keep up with her master.Lianhua has been by Jinyang's side for many years, and her own princess cares about Miss Lianyue like never before. What she doesn't understand is that Miss Lianyue has disappeared in the West Mansion. Why did the princess come to the General's Mansion?

Before Jinyang arrived, the girl who had received the letter was already answering outside Shen Xiao's gate.

"Miss, Princess Jinyang is here to see you."

Gu Wenqiao just finished feeding Shen Xiao the medicine, and was wiping Shen Xiao's face with a hot towel. "His Royal Highness has a big banquet today. Hearing that the general has left, he put aside everything and came to comfort you. I treat you with deep affection."

Gu Wenqiao felt that Princess Jinyang's consolation must be more useful than her consolation.It's only a matter of recent days that I have gotten close to Xiao'er, and it can't compare to the friendship between Xiao'er and Her Royal Highness who grew up together.

"Jin Yang is here?" Shen Xiao's tears flowed out again, but this time they were tears of joy.She originally thought that Jinyang would not care about her anymore, but she rushed over immediately after hearing the news.Jin Yang still cares about himself, how could he not talk about his relationship for more than ten years.

"I have to meet him!" Shen Xiao felt his body gain strength suddenly, and was about to lift the quilt to pick up Jin Yang, but he heard Jin Yang's voice from the door.

"No need. You have to rest." Jin Yang pushed the door open with a cold face.

Gu Wenqiao hurriedly knelt down to salute.

Jin Yang glanced at Gu Wenqiao and said: "This is Miss Gu, right? I want to have a few words with Miss Xiao, and please avoid Miss Gu."

The servants of the general’s mansion who were serving in the room before and the people brought by Jinyang except Lianhao Lianyuan went out, Lianhaolianyuan dutifully guarded not far away, he could see Jinyang, and it just happened to be heard Not a place for the two to talk.

Shen Xiao had already straightened up, looking at Jinyang full of longing and emotion.

Jin Yang's expression was very indifferent: "General Shen worked hard all his life for the prosperity of the Universiade and the people's safety. He didn't expect to die on the battlefield when he was in his prime. It's just that people can't be resurrected after death. Don't be too sad. Listen to You Chan from the palace. News, the emperor has ordered the construction of the general's tomb, the merits of the Shen family..."

Jin Yang, as the princess of the Universiade, said old words to comfort the family of the dead general, but Shen Xiao suddenly interrupted: "You are still angry with me, aren't you? Did you just want to tell me this today?"

Originally worried about Shen Xiao's pain of losing his father, Jin Yang, who was full of anxiety and planned to simply comfort Shen Xiao for a few words before talking about Lian Yue, couldn't see Shen Xiao pretending to be innocent, so he changed the subject: "You don't have to pretend to be stupid. You Going through the pain of bereavement and doing something wrong for a moment, because of past love, as long as Lianyue is fine, I won't argue with you. Where is she?"

"What?" Shen Xiao's joy at Jin Yang's visit disappeared instantly.Jin Yang didn't come to see her, but for Wu Lianyue?Shen Xiao didn't know what happened to Wu Lianyue, but seeing Jin Yang's anxious appearance, she wished from the bottom of her heart that Wu Lianyue was dead.

"Do you think that if you find the assassins in the Jianghu and shut their mouths to death, I won't be able to guess it's you? You may have forgotten that the loyal king's remnant party on the day of the chaos in the palace also followed the same path. Dead man, but your Shen family personally found it." Jin Yang suppressed the anger that was about to burst out, and persuaded Shen Xiao in a gentle tone as much as possible: "Don't do stupid things, give Lianyue to me! She was injured, as long as she is not dead or disabled, I will not embarrass you, and I will not blame you for my injury."

"Are you injured? Where is the injury?" Shen Xiao didn't care about being wronged and wronged, and reached out with concern to untie Jinyang's clothes to check the injury.

Jin Yang stepped back alertly, avoiding Shen Xiao's hand.Shen Xiao withdrew his hand sadly, and explained to Jin Yang: "This matter really has nothing to do with me, but don't worry, I will order someone to investigate such a big matter as the assassin's entry into the princess mansion." She looked up He stared at Jinyang with tearful eyes, his eyes were firm and did not evade, and there was no sign of guilt at all.

Jin Yang and Shen Xiao looked at each other, and she almost believed that Shen Xiao was innocent, because Shen Xiao rarely showed such eyes.But she really couldn't think of anyone other than Shen Xiao who would take such a big risk to kill Lianyue.

"I'll ask you one last time. Where is Lianyue now?" Jin Yang's tone was full of hatred.

Shen Xiao heard it.After being comforted by my cousin Gu Wenqiao, my mood calmed down a little, but at this moment I fell into the ice cave again. "She? She's in the underworld now!" Desperate, Shen Xiao looked at Jinyang with provocative eyes, and a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "I killed her. Then what are you going to do with me? Kill me for her Revenge?"
