The Concubine of Crossing

The people captured this time were obviously much more difficult to deal with than the last time. The cell boss used more than half of the torture tools, but he couldn't knock people's mouths open.

Liu Zhaoyin squinted his eyes, and simply asked people to check the identities of several people.

Because the Zhao family and the fourth prince's mansion were locked in from the very beginning, the identities of the few people were quickly dug out.

In other words, the fourth prince didn't hide much at all.

It's an honor for a dignified and noble person to fall in love with anyone, so why bother to hide it?

Liu Zhaoyin went to face the saint again, and directly put the results of his investigation in front of Emperor Tai'an. When Emperor Tai'an saw the results, he frowned, "Did Lian'er leave the mansion?"

Liu Zhaoyin only felt his heart sink, "Never." Never leaving the mansion means that he has not resisted the decree and disrespected.

Emperor Tai'an said again, "Is he looking for the same person these two times?"

Liu Zhaoyin's heart had already started to feel cold, "...Yes."

Emperor Tai'an's eyebrows stretched a little, "So, since Lian'er likes it, then give it to him. Come, pass the decree..."

Liu Zhaoyin quickly kowtowed, "Returning to Your Majesty, although that man is a man, he is already married. It is really not such an honor."

Hearing that the man was married, Emperor Tai'an immediately frowned, "Nonsense!" Probably thinking of his concubine being slept, Emperor Tai'an's face immediately became very ugly, "I think he is too idle!" Here! Come on!"

Immediately, a eunuch knelt down, waiting for Emperor Tai'an's order.

Emperor Tai'an said, "Pass down my oral order to let the fourth prince read more sage books at home when he has nothing to do."

The eunuch responded quickly, then turned around and delivered the decree.

At this time, a eunuch bowed his head to Emperor Tai'an and whispered in Tai'an's ear, "Your Majesty, it's time to take the fairy medicine."

Emperor Tai'an's eyes lit up when he was yawning, and turned his head to find that Liu Zhaoyin was still in front of him, and immediately straightened his expression, "Liu Aiqing, do you have something to report?"

Liu Zhaoyin bowed and saluted, "Return to Your Majesty, there is nothing."

Emperor Tai'an waved his hand quickly, "If you have nothing to do, step back."

Liu Zhaoyin kowtowed, "I will leave." When he reached the entrance of the main hall, Liu Zhaoyin couldn't help but look back, and saw Emperor Tai'an impatiently took the medicine from the eunuch's hand, stuffed it into his mouth, and then a smile appeared on his face. The color of intoxication.

Liu Zhaoyin suddenly felt chills all over his heart.

***

There is no small matter in the royal family, and the fact that the fourth prince was grounded and ordered to read sage books by the emperor quickly reached Wu Wang's ears.

The fourth prince is just a pervert, it is common to rob people in the street, and it is nothing unusual to kick the iron back.

However, it was blocked twice in a row, and Wu Wu didn't need to say anything, the people below spontaneously sent up the other party's news.When Wu Wang saw who that person was, his face immediately darkened, and he slammed the table, "Damn it!"

He never thought that the person Gu Lian was following was Xiao Yezi.

Moreover, the most troublesome thing is that when he got the news, it is estimated that many people got the same news.That is to say, people who are curious or want to please Gu Lian will all focus on Li Xiao.

Thinking of this, Wu Wang's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and he had the idea of ​​killing Gu Lian right now.

He wandered around the room, he had to think of a way to make Xiao Yezi and the others fade out of everyone's sight, otherwise two powerless people would be overwhelmed if someone stuck a finger at them casually. .

But before that, Gu Lian must not make that bastard feel better... He suddenly said, "Come here."

Immediately someone came out and knelt down in front of him silently, Wu Wang said, "Since Your Majesty let the Fourth Prince read the sage books at ease, don't let him be distracted."

Wu Wang took out a box from his sleeve and put it on the table, lowered his eyes and said calmly, "Give this to the fourth prince and concubine, tell her that as long as she feeds it with blood, she will find a way to feed it to the fourth prince. As long as four After the prince eats it, he will not look for anyone else except her in the future."

The subordinate saluted Wu Huang, took the box on the table and retreated.The whole process was silent, if not for seeing such a big living person, I would have thought that Wu Wang was the only one talking to himself in the room.

Seeing that the person left, Wu Wang also calmed down a little.He knocked on the table silently, looking for a solution.

All kinds of information went around in his mind, and Wu Wang suddenly thought of Gu En. Thinking of this name, he narrowed his eyes slightly, and Xiao Yezi even helped him once.Or, something can be done about him.

***

Having encountered the situation twice in a row, Li Xiao could no longer define robbery incidents as accidents.

Tell Luo Laibao exactly what happened.When Luo Laibao heard this, he exploded immediately.

Like Li Xiao, he immediately suspected that he had fallen for Dayan's group of people, but unlike Li Xiao who thought it was revenge, he thought it was more likely that those people wanted to drag Li Xiao back to inherit the family business and give Da Yan Emperor Yan is a mascot.

Luo Laibao immediately quit. After all, he had a fateful friendship in the previous life. Luo Laibao knew that Xiangniang should be the one who favored Li Xiao the most among Dayan people, so he went directly to Xiangniang.

Hua Niang was there at the time, and when she heard Luo Laibao's words, she immediately exploded. Before Xiang Niang could speak, she ran out in a hurry.

After a while, he ran back with a puzzled face, "They said they didn't do it."

Hua Niang and Xiang Niang looked at each other, and then anger appeared on both of their faces, "Bastard! Who dares to attack the young master!"

Luo Laibao looked at them suspiciously, "Is it really not your people? I don't think your people seem to listen to you very much."

Hua Niang's face turned red immediately, she didn't know whether she was angry or ashamed, "Impossible, although they sometimes hide things from us, they absolutely dare not lie to us about this kind of thing."

Luo Laibao glanced at her suspiciously, and Xiangniang also nodded, "They dare not lie about this kind of thing." Besides, because of their self-assertion, several people have been lost, and the remaining few are also injured. .

Although their family is very good at medicine, it will take time to fully recover.

Therefore, they didn't have much energy to trouble Li Xiao.

After listening to their explanations, Luo Laibao and Li Xiao looked at each other, and both felt that there was no need for them to lie to them.

Since he is not from Dayan, then who is thinking about Li Xiao is very important.

Hua Niang looked at Li Xiao hesitantly, "Master, let us send someone to protect you, so that we can also catch the person who will attack you later."

Li Xiao was not really worried, let alone three or five such people, he could easily deal with ten or eight of them.

It's just like this coming back and forth from time to time, it's a little annoying.

Luo Laibao was a little hesitant. To be honest, he couldn't trust anyone in this group of Dayan people except Xiangniang.Now, in order to deal with another group of unknown people, Li Xiao was placed in the hands of this group of people who also did not trust him. He felt that it was strange and inappropriate no matter how he thought about it.

Li Xiao also said, "I've already sent everyone to Jingzhao Mansion, so Master Liu must be able to get some news from it, I'll turn around and ask later."

Luo Laibao nodded immediately.

Xiangniang and Huaniang looked at each other, knowing that this was a sign of their distrust of them.But thinking of what Zhaocai and others did, the behavior of the two made them feel it should be taken for granted.

If you think about it differently, if they were in Li Xiao's position, they probably wouldn't believe those people who came out of nowhere and always made their own decisions.

Therefore, the two looked at each other helplessly, and both accepted Li Xiao's proposal.Of course, they don't need to mention the matter of private investigation until the results come out.

After thinking about it, Hua Niang handed a box to Li Xiao, "If you meet those people again, young master, feed them. No matter how hard a man is, he won't be able to stand being penetrated by this heart-eating worm. It's easier for Mr. Shi to ask anything."

Li Xiao raised his eyebrows, and Luo Laibao came over curiously, he had always heard that Dayan's Gu worm was famous, but he had never seen it before, now that he heard that this worm was so powerful, he naturally wanted to take a look.

Li Xiao opened the box, and saw a white worm lying inside, very slender and somewhat transparent, seemingly harmless.Seeing that the box was opened, he poked his head out curiously to check the surrounding situation, but as soon as he poked a little towards Li Xiao, his body froze immediately, and then shrank back suddenly as if he had been frightened by something, curled up in the corner Shivering in a ball.

Li Xiao: "..."

Luo Laibao looked at Li Xiao in surprise, "It seems to be very afraid of you."

Hua Niang came over and poked the bug, and said with a smile, "The patriarch has a special bloodline, which has a natural deterrent power against poisonous insects and Gu insects. It's normal for him to be afraid of you."

Li Xiao glanced at the worm with a complicated expression, and for the first time deeply realized the power of his blood.

Hua Niang pointed to the small bottle in the box again, "This is an insect repellent, as long as it is swallowed by the person who swallowed the Gu worm, the heart-eating worm can be spit out."

Even the deworming medicine is ready, so considerate.

"However..." Hua Niang rolled her eyes, "Don't look at this thing as small, it likes to devour people's hearts the most, as long as it enters the human body, it will drill into the heart, if it is not expelled in a stick of incense, it will It causes great damage to the human body. The longer the time, the greater the damage. If the deworming medicine is not used all the time, it can swallow the human heart alive."

Li Xiao's hand trembled, and Luo Laibao almost slapped the box away with a wave.

Seeing the reaction of the two, Hua Niang couldn't help covering her mouth and giggling.

Xiangniang gave her a blank look, and then said to Li Xiao, "This box is specially made, as long as you don't open it, the heart-eating worms won't come out, young master, please rest assured."

Li Xiao took a deep breath, resisting the urge to throw this thing out.After thinking about it, I finally put it away carefully.After all, in this chaotic world, the more life-saving things, the better.

After leaving Baixiang Pavilion, the two really went to Jingzhao Mansion.The yamen guard at the gate obviously knew Li Xiao, so when he saw him, he subconsciously looked behind him, and was a little disappointed when he saw that no one was dragging him.

Li Xiao and Luo Laibao: "..."

Seeing that the faces of the two people were a little bit wrong, the yamen servant smiled and asked them why they came.

Li Xiao explained the purpose of coming here, and when the yamen servant heard that he was here to inquire about the people behind the scenes, his face suddenly became a little weird.

After thinking for a while, he said, "I'm not too sure about this, why don't I ask your lord later?"

Luo Laibao had dealt with so many people, and he knew from the yamen servant's face that he must know something. Before Li Xiao could speak, he took a step forward, and quietly stuffed a certain amount of money into the yamen servant's sleeve , laughed, "Then trouble the official."

The yamen servant only felt his sleeves sinking, and squeezed it calmly. The feel was definitely silver.With such a certainty, it is obvious that there are at least twelve taels.

With so much money, he couldn't save so much in a year, so he was really reluctant to return it.

After thinking about it, the adults didn't let them hide things.So he looked left and right, and saw that there was no one looking here except for his companion who deliberately looked away. He thought that he would divide the money into half of the companion at that time, so he had no worries, and whispered in the ear of the two of them. He said something.

Then he backed away as if nothing had happened, and his voice amplified a little, "Okay, I will definitely tell your lord."

Luo Laibao shrank his pupils slightly, thanked the yamen servant again, and then pulled Li Xiao to turn around and leave.

Luo Laibao was silent all the way without speaking.The two have been together for so long, Li Xiao naturally knows his temperament, he must be very upset now.

The yamen servant spoke too softly just now, and he didn't hear what he said clearly. Looking at Luo Laibao's expression now, it must not be a pleasant answer.

But no matter what happens, as long as the two of them face it together, he believes that there will be no obstacles they can't overcome.

When he reached a remote corner and saw that there was no one around, Li Xiao suddenly stopped in his tracks, and then pulled Luo Laibao, who had to be stopped by him, into his arms, and hugged him.

Li Xiao hugged him, rubbed against him, and then asked in a low voice, "What news did you hear? Are you so angry?"

Luo Laibao hugged him tightly, and after a while, he said sullenly, "I regret coming to the capital."

Li Xiao: "..."

Luo Laibao hugged him vigorously, then raised his head, leaned into his ear and whispered, "The Fourth Prince did it."

Li Xiao: "..."

Li Xiao's face was full of inexplicable, no injustice, no enmity, why did the aloof fourth prince rob him.

Luo Laibao glanced at him faintly, "I heard that the fourth prince has become more masculine recently."

Li Xiao: "..." Well, it's this face again.
