miscalculation

Not long after, Xiao Qian entered the palace and asked Xiao Yi for an order: "Father, my son heard that the south of the Yangtze River is picturesque, and I want my father's permission to let my son travel south and enjoy the beautiful scenery."

Xiao Qian has been obedient since he was a child, and has never made any requests on his own initiative. At this time, he suddenly mentioned traveling to the south of the Yangtze River.Xiao Yi recalled that he went to visit Xiao Qian before he bestowed the marriage, and saw the words of looking forward to the king's return in Jiangnan and Jiangbei, thinking that he must be missing Shen Lingjiao, and that's why he started traveling in Jiangnan.Although he vowed not to remarry, no matter what, he is still the prince and must not be extinct, let alone he is still the heir.The land in the south of the Yangtze River is full of outstanding people, especially there are many beauties, so it is hard to guarantee that he will not change his mind after a visit.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yi nodded and said, "That's fine. You might get sick from boredom in the capital, so it's okay to go out for a walk. Your father granted you six months, do you think it's enough?"

Xiao Qian knelt down and thanked, "Thank you, Father, for your kindness."

When he returned to Yuewang Mansion, he packed up his luggage and planned to set off on another day.Qin Xinben stayed in Prince Zhao's Mansion to recuperate his injuries, but Xiao Qian was afraid that Xiao Jue would find out about this and cause trouble, so he let him leave as soon as possible.At that time, Qin Xin sneered and said, "The way you saved lives and healed the wounded was really a fake. You think I'm lowly, and you have to worry about it day and night, so you're tired of it?"

Xiao Qian said: "Miss Shen has already rested in peace. It is very inconvenient for you to be in the Yue Palace. It is better to leave the capital as soon as possible."

Qin Xin said with a smile: "As soon as I show up, I will invite murder. Although I don't want to rely on your protection, I have already received it. How can I just walk away without thinking of repaying it? How can I not repay you for such a favor?" Is it the work of a man?"

Xiao Qian was inconvenient to say that he was worried about Xiao Jue making trouble, so he had no choice but to let him keep it. Unexpectedly, Concubine Lan Gui hanged herself to death later.The entire imperial court became a little tense, and the situation became more and more unclear, and he had no intention of taking care of Qin Xin.

In fact, ever since Qin Xin settled in the Yue Palace, he saw Xiao Qian was thoughtful and considerate in every way, and he had already decided in his heart that Xiao Qian was worthy of Shen Lingjiao's entrustment of the golden hairpin.It's just that the person who assassinated him was obviously related to Xiao Qian, so he set up such a situation with really sinister intentions.No matter what, he will find out who is behind the scenes and avenge Shen Lingjiao.Now that he stays by Xiao Qian's side, it is the best opportunity, he can observe who Xiao Qian usually interacts with, and investigate one side.

However, he stayed for a few months, and saw that Xiao Qian had nothing to do on weekdays, he only practiced sword and calligraphy, occasionally painted bamboo and painted orchids, and never had any contact with anyone.Only the palace often sent all kinds of novelties, and he had already found out that it was a gift from Chuxiu Palace.Qin Xin already knew that Xiao Qian was raised by Concubine Ji Shu of Chuxiu Palace, so he didn't take it seriously.The only thing that surprised him was that Qi Wang Xiaojue often came to visit, but Xiao Qian turned him away several times.

Qin Xin knew very well that Xiao Jue's mother's clan was very powerful, and he was the same choice as King Zhao Xiaocheng, so why did he seem to be quite respectful to Xiao Qian, yet he was not annoyed when he was rejected again and again.Xiao Qian never seemed to care about Xiao Jue, but he always went in and out with him, but he was not allowed to stay in Yue Palace, which made Qin Xin very puzzled.

The news of Xiao Qianzuo's invitation to travel to the south of the Yangtze River soon reached Xiao Jue's ears.On the day of parting, Xiao Jue came to see him off in person, but Xiao Qian didn't say much and only asked Xiao Jue to go back earlier.

Xiao Jue sighed: "Brother Huang, how did you know how to drive me away? In another month, I can also move into Prince Qi's mansion. Why don't you wait for my congratulations on my housewarming to be completed before going down to the south of the Yangtze River?"

Xiao Qian said: "I have already prepared a congratulatory gift, and it's just a banquet, why should I be rigid?"

As he spoke, he was about to get into the carriage. When Xiao Qian saw him, he felt reluctant, so he quickly poked his head in and said, "Brother, you can come back earlier."

Xiao Qian hurriedly shouted: "Put your head out quickly, you must not make such a move, in case the carriage moves forward for a while, what should you do if you are injured?"

After he finished saying this sentence, Xiao Jue became playful and shouted: "Oh, my robe seems to be caught in this carriage."

Xiao Qian jumped out of the carriage in shock, but seeing Xiao Jue standing there as if nothing had happened, he glared at him and said, "Nonsense, hurry back to the palace, don't let Concubine Shu worry about it."

"Hmph, you are still worried about Concubine Mother. She is very happy to hear that you are going to Jiangnan. She said she will give some guards to protect you."

"Oh? Who are they? Why don't you see them?"

Xiao Jue stuck out his tongue and said, "I just want to spy on you, of course I won't allow it."

He said so, but his eyes glanced at the guards following behind.Seeing him looking behind, Xiao Qian didn't turn around, but said: "Okay, it's time for you to go back."

Xiao Qian knew that Xiao Jue would definitely send someone to follow him, and he didn't care who was Xiao Jue's person among his guards, but he refused to look back, which meant total trust.

Seeing this, Xiao Jue was moved in his heart, and leaned forward and asked, "Brother, who is that faceless guard?"

Xiao Qian knew that the guards in his mansion would have been investigated by Xiao Jue long ago, and only Qin Xin was the one he insisted on accompanying, so he said: "I appreciate his swordsmanship and see that others are honest, so I stayed. Why? ? If you don’t like it, send him away with money.”

Xiao Jue pouted and said: "I just heard people say that he is very good at martial arts, so I was afraid that he would be deceitful if he followed you. Since elder brother believes in him, why bother driving him?" A guard reported earlier that Xiao Qian didn't know why A man with high martial arts skills was taken in, but his history could not be found out.Xiao Jue was a little worried, afraid that this person was not right, but if Xiao Qian was really asked to send him away, Xiao Qian might think that he had other selfish motives.

Xiao Qian said: "Okay, it's getting late, you go back."

Xiao Jue tugged Xiao Qian's sleeve and said: "Brother, do you remember to come back early, the emperor promised you six months. No matter how good the south of the Yangtze River is, the bamboo is not as good as the capital. You have always liked bamboo, so you must not suddenly Change your mind and fall in love with the peach blossoms in the south."

Xiao Qian knew that since he called himself bamboo, it was interesting to still eat that flying vinegar, so he nodded repeatedly, and then got into the carriage.

Xiao Jue watched them leave, and said to the people behind him: "You can see the guard just now, draw his shadow immediately, go back and check carefully."

After Qin Xin followed Xiao Qian out of the city, he saw Xiao Qian calling him forward, and he asked, "What? Now that you're out of the capital, do you want to go back on your word and kill someone?"

Xiao Qian had no choice but to say: "You'd better go. I don't know how many people under King Qi's men are in my group of guards. They will definitely be ordered to track you down. Once they find out that you are the one who assassinated me that day, they will definitely do their best. Kill."

"Why bother? You tell them directly, and I'll be fine if it turns out?"

"You... why are you so stubborn?"

"Why, do you think I'm an eyesore? His Royal Highness, you can say that all of your guards are from King Qi. This trip to the south of the Yangtze River can't be hidden from their eyes and ears. As a prince, he is in such a situation, how can he still think about it? I think about it? Why don’t you discuss with me how to find a way to eradicate them one by one on the road.”

"No, this king has his own measure."

"Then I have my own decision, and I will follow you to the end."

"Alright, when you get to Jiangnan, it's safer for you to leave than to go now."

Qin Xin said with a smile: "We'll talk about it when we get to go to the south of the Yangtze River."

He knew in his heart that those who assassinated him would never let him go easily.
