Prince Xie broke up with Ningyuan General Chu Shao, but it didn't cause disturbances all over the city. Everyone only said that the general was going to open a mansion to live in the house that His Majesty rewarded.Chu Shao was unable to care about the rumors, and after Fang Ziyu cleaned up for him, he moved out in a daze.

Didn't even see him again.

After he moved out, Feng Xi went on as usual, he entered the palace more and more frequently, and came back later and later. Qingyuan reform was in dire straits, and he really couldn't concentrate on thinking about other things.

Until this day, I left the palace early after a long absence.

It was Qingming, but it hadn't rained yet, the setting sun drew a long streak of blood in the sky, Feng Xie lifted the curtain from the sedan chair, and suddenly fell into a trance.

He remembered that two months ago, maybe three months ago, he and Chu Shao passed Xuanle Avenue in a carriage, and it was also evening.Chu Shao lay on his lap, rarely speaking, and when Feng Xi looked down for a long time, he realized that he had fallen asleep.

He brushed his fingers over the deep eyebrows of the other party. He knew that Chu Shao often went to the Xuanjian camp in recent days, but he would always come back before he returned to the mansion, and sometimes even go to the gate of the palace to pick him up.

People run a lot, so they are naturally tired, otherwise, they would not be able to fall asleep lying on his lap, and in such a posture of relying on him wholeheartedly.

It's like an eternity.

Qin Mu was driving the car when he was suddenly patted by Feng Xie from behind, and when he turned his head, he heard his voice: "Amu, you go back first, you don't have to follow me, I'll walk around as I please, and I'll be back home soon."

"Your Highness is alone, is there any danger?" Qin Mu whispered, "Although this place is not remote, I am worried..."

"It's okay, no one knows that I'm here today, so go ahead." Feng Xie got out of the car, turned around and said, "Don't worry, if I have something to do, I will blow the parrot whistle to call you..."

The parrot whistle is a signal whistle specially made by the parrot guards for defense. Almost every member of the royal family has one and hangs it on their bodies.Qin Mu knew that it was useless to follow him any longer, and he also had a parrot whistle, so he also nodded and let him go.

Feng Xie was in a daze, so he walked aimlessly for a long time, and when he came back to his senses, he no longer knew where he had gone.

The sun was setting, and the whole body was covered with a layer of dim gray. He walked a few more steps, and an open-air restaurant suddenly appeared in his vision. It seemed that it was about to close, and the plainly dressed boss was cleaning up the tables and chairs.

Feng Xie walked over and sat down straight away, took out a stack of gold coins from his sleeve and put them on the table: "Boss, serve me some wine."

He took off his palace attire earlier, but now he only wears ordinary clothes, he looks no different from a noble son from an ordinary family.The boss was taken aback by him, and shivered a little when he saw the gold, and said with a smile: "Guest, this is a small wine shop, there is no good wine, your money...you dare not accept it."

"Any kind of wine is fine," Feng Xie pushed the gold coin in front of him, and said coldly, "Go ahead."

The boss hurriedly agreed to go, and brought him a few jugs of wine in a short while, Feng Xi didn't care, picked up one of the small wine jugs, poured a glass, and drank it down in one gulp.

Only when he is alone can he indulge himself.

The spicy wine flowed down his throat, stimulating his chaotic mind, Feng Xie put down the wine jar with red eyes, took a few breaths, and felt his eyes were a little sour.

I thought it would be easy to forget him.

But there are traces of him everywhere in life, how to forget?

Feng Xie drank another glass, he was always calm, he knew how much he could drink and how much he would drink so as not to get drunk, even if he indulged himself, he would never allow himself to get drunk.

He thought about it, and suddenly felt that something was wrong, and the wine slid down the esophagus, bringing a cold shiver.

The feeling of nausea in the stomach became more and more intense, Feng Xie clutched his chest like gold paper, wanting to vomit, he frowned and raised his head, just in time to see the boss sitting in front of him just now.

"His Royal Highness, you didn't learn your lesson last time about Chunzhou Terrace." The boss had a half-smile on his face, which was totally different from the shivering expression just now. Who wants to assassinate you, you are so relieved now, you dare to come out alone. But, thank you for giving me such a chance. "

"Who are you...?" Feng Xie's eyes darkened for a while, he tried to grab the parrot whistle on his chest, but accidentally fell off the chair, he knelt on the ground, and the stagnation in his chest became more and more serious , "Why did you kill me...you..."

"It doesn't matter who I am," the other party chuckled, knelt down and rubbed his face, "you will know me sooner or later... for you, I have to put a uncomfortable human skin mask on my face, it's very annoying ..."

"What..." Feng Xie's eyes were pitch black, and the pain in his chest that was bursting made it almost difficult for him to speak, "What's the use of killing me? Rebellion? You think you can..."

"Actually, I don't want to kill you, or do you think you can still talk to me now?" The other party seemed to have changed his voice, his voice was erratic, and he couldn't hear clearly, "Chunzhoutai sword, here is a glass of wine, It's all just to make you suffer..."

Sweating layer upon layer, Feng Xie grabbed his arm, clenched his teeth tightly, refusing to reveal his pain.The other party continued to touch his face and said with a smile, "This is the first time I've looked at you so closely..."

"Who are you? Who are you?" Feng Xie was in so much pain that he couldn't move, only felt that there were many calluses on his hands, and there was a sharp pain when he rubbed them.The other party didn't answer him, and laughed again, and then Feng Xie felt a needle being pierced into his arm.

"Ah, the beauty is so red with blood." He heard the other party say this.

The needle pierced his skin, and then quickly withdrew. Feng Xie felt that the person carefully drew a pattern on his arm, and his pain eased a bit, and he was finally able to speak Came: "What do you want to do?"

"This is the best 'Canghaiyuesheng'... Okay, you just need to go back and find an imperial doctor to treat you, and you will be fine for the time being," the other party smiled, "I don't want to do anything, I just want you Just suffer the same as me... By the way, how do you usually call people, is this whistle?"

"why……"

"You will know why in the future," the man patted his face, and then blew the parrot whistle hanging on his chest, "Before you officially know me, you must not die, or I will die very quickly." Disappointed."

Just as Feng Xie was about to speak, a fishy smell rose from his throat, the man laughed again, got up and left.

He stretched out his hand weakly, his vision was blurred but clear, his brain went blank, before he passed out, his vision was clearly focused on his arm for a moment, and he saw a small black moon drawn on his arm.

"Who exactly wants to buy the life of Prince Xie?" Qi Lang stood in front of the desk where he often sat, but his mood was not calm, "It's only been a short time, and he was assassinated for the second time..."

"Wei Gong doesn't let go, and we don't know who it is." Qin Mu stood in front of Qi Lang, with his hands down, and replied respectfully, "After the emperor came to the Prince's Mansion, he sealed the news of the Prince's Mansion. People say that the prince's life is dying...but the subordinates don't think so, if it is really dying, how can they release such news..."

Qi Lang's originally tense body relaxed a bit: "Oh, is that so? As long as there is nothing to do with your life..."

"Subordinates feel that this is intentionally released news to attract people to assassinate again," Qin Mu raised his head to look at him, "but during the day and night, there was no movement at all. It is said that the night mayfly never misses. I always feel...they don't want Prince Xie's life at all."

"You think so too?" Qi Lang raised his eyes to look at him, and smiled slowly, "It's better if you don't die. Originally, the two of us planned to fight in the near future. The crown prince was assassinated and was in a hurry. Didn't he help us a lot? ?”

"Extremely true," Qin Mu bowed deeply, "Wei Gong has already passed on a message to me through someone else's mouth, and the fireworks will be set off in the evening of the next day. At that time, Parrot Wei and I will fight together."

Qi Lang replied: "Well, the secret passage of the Prince's Mansion..."

"After the eldest son talked with me about this topic last time, I suddenly realized." Qin Mu said, "In the past few months, I have been diving at night, and with my father's manuscripts, it can almost be concluded that the secret road of the prince's mansion should have two ends. One end enters the palace, and the other end seems to lead to the Jiwang River Ferry. The subordinates speculate that it should be the South Ferry. The North Ferry is not a good place to escape... I searched for more than half a month at the South Ferry, and finally found it. exit."

A smile appeared on the corner of Qi Lang's lips: "Very good, since I know the exit of the secret path, I don't need to go through a lot of trouble. It's just that I have something to ask you, Qin Mu—"

Qin Mu's face did not have the usual cheerful look, but instead had a layer of stagnant ruthlessness: "Please tell me, eldest son."

Qi Lang said: "Recently, Chu Shao and Prince Xie have almost no contact with each other, right?"

"Yes, but I see that even though they don't communicate, the friendship between the two is deep, and I'm afraid it won't be completely forgotten overnight." Qin Mu said, "The prince was depressed on the day he was assassinated, so he asked me to come back first."

Qi Lang thought for a while, and then showed a smug smile: "I can't forget it, that's why I asked you to imitate Prince Xie's handwriting... How is your imitation?"

"Don't worry, eldest son." Qin Mu also showed a smile, "The handwriting is almost unreal. I secretly changed the memorials in the prince's mansion several times, but the prince himself didn't see anything wrong."

"Okay, okay, everything is ready," Qi Lang looked at him approvingly, and said half-truthfully, "Fortunately, I have you, which saved me a lot of trouble... I promise you, when everything is done, it will be yours." Father and your master will take revenge."

"Thank you, Eldest Young Master." Qin Mu knelt down and saluted him with neither humility nor arrogance, and then left quietly.

"You still have the mood to sleep here!"

Fang Ziyu ran in from the door in a hurry, and unceremoniously overturned Chu Shao, who was not sleeping soundly on the bed: "Something happened, do you know that something big happened! I can't find you anywhere, but you are in the house." sleep in!"

"What's the matter..." Chu Shao rubbed his eyes and got up from the ground, asking in a daze.He didn't sleep well after being driven away by Feng Xie that day, and he didn't shave his beard after growing a circle, so he looked a bit haggard.

"What's wrong with you?" Fang Ziyu looked at him and asked in a daze.

"It's nothing, I just didn't rest well." His eyes hurt so much, Chu Shao rubbed his eyes again, and replied tiredly, his voice was very hoarse, "What's the matter? I've been tired these few days After a while, there is no one in the mansion, and I have not heard any news."

"You don't know yet? No wonder, if you knew, how could you still be able to sleep?" Fang Ziyu said in a fluttering voice, "His Royal Highness was assassinated again. This time even His Majesty was alarmed. He just came out of the Prince's Mansion..."
