reunion is not too late

When Prime Minister Wang saw that the child couldn't be coaxed from crying for a while, he declined the proposal to stay at the mansion for dinner, and hurried away with his granddaughter.

Shen Lixin wiped Situ Wei's tears, "Since Wei'er doesn't like her, then Uncle Huang doesn't like her either, stop crying, okay?"

Situ Wei nodded quickly, and the tears stopped after a while.Shen Lixin suppressed the smile that came to his lips, patted Situ Wei's head, and secretly guessed whether Prime Minister Wang was acting on his own whim or Situ Xuan instructed him.

After Prime Minister Wang came here once, all the ministers who were waiting to marry their daughters followed suit one after another. They either came to visit the sick, or came to ask for paintings and calligraphy. Shen Lixin was very annoyed, but there was nothing he could do. Crying or making noise or playing pranks was dismissed, which also made Shen Lixin more satisfied with Situ Wei, and raising a smart son was a peace of mind.

After dinner, Shen Lixin went back to the bedroom. After tidying up, she lay on the bed, unfolded the picture of the seven-star dragon, and looked at it carefully. She touched the blade with her index finger, and her eyes flashed tenderly.

At this time, Situ Xuan was playing with a teacup in his hand, and was asking Kun Mu, "Where is Ling Yunxiao now?"

"On the way back to the imperial capital, he seemed to know that he was cheated halfway."

Situ Xuan said in a dilemma: "Do you think I should kill him? If Nian'er remembers it later, will he hate me? He was restless a while ago, didn't he just have such a dream?"

Seeing that he seemed to be really wavering, Kun Mu said, "Tang Mingche hates him to the bone, so it's okay to let him do it."

Situ Xuan shook his head, "If he dies, Nian'er will still be sad when he thinks about it."

Kun Mu lowered his head, and the corners of his mouth twitched. Originally, the emperor was considering whether to kill Ling Yunxiao, but Ling Yunxiao left with a woman, making the prince wait all night in the snowy night, so the emperor became angry, and immediately carried out the plan Well, the emperor is also a wonderful flower for the sake of my younger brother's control!

Situ Xuan sighed, and stood up slowly, "Ling Yunxiao is a handsome talent, I will feel uneasy if I don't kill him, and if I kill him, I am afraid that Nian'er will hate me in the future, then... imprison him for life."

Kun Mu said something about the emperor's sage, and flattered him quietly.

Situ Xuan paced back and forth a few steps, "How is General Shen going?"

"General Shen is waiting for news from the master."

Situ Xuan hummed and smiled, "This battle was fought, tsk, the people will suffer if it is fought for a long time, and it will make people feel that there is no sense of accomplishment if it is too short, so you have to manage the time well. Forget it, let Shen Zhimin come back for the New Year. The king of Zhennan killed the sacrificial flag, the Chinese New Year is almost here, red brings joy."

Kun Mu said yes, but didn't dare to speak again.

"By the way, send someone to check the map drawn by Ling Yunxiao. As for him himself, let Qian, Kun, Zhen, and Xun take action, and transfer another thousand bows/crossbows to stop him outside the imperial city. he."

"Master, there is only one person in Ling Yunxiao."

"Try not to hurt him. It's not easy to capture him alive. It doesn't hurt to have more people."

After Kun Mu agreed, he hurried down to make arrangements.Situ Xuan picked up the memorial, put it down impatiently, and called for someone to come. Eunuch Liu came in from the door, "Your Majesty."

"Bring Commander An."

After a while, An Hongchi, the commander of the imperial guards, came, and Situ Xuan threw a pen, "How is the arrangement?"

"Returning to the emperor, Huguo Temple has arranged three layers of troops to ensure nothing goes wrong."

"Replace all the guards in Prince Zhongyi's mansion, and add another five hundred troops to protect Prince Beizhao. Remember, you must not leave for a while."

An Hongchi knew what he meant, which was to monitor Tang Mingche under his sight and control him. "The general will make arrangements immediately!"

A few days later, Shen Lixin was summoned into the palace early to discuss the matter of offering sacrifices to heaven during the Chinese New Year.Shen Lixin lowered her head and didn't express any opinions, which meant that Situ Xuan did whatever she wanted, and she was obedient like the little puppet she used to be.

Situ Xuan left him after he came down to court, and asked him with a frown after calling him to the Imperial Study Room, "Why didn't you say a word?"

Shen Lixin shook her head, "The emperor's brother has made arrangements, and it's just as long as the minister cooperates."

Doubt flashed in Situ Xuan's eyes, isn't it me?It's the younger brother, did he really forget Ling Yunxiao?So, Tang Mingche didn't withdraw the medicine for him? "Why are you so obedient? You dared to say anything when you were wild a few days ago!"

Shen Lixin blinked suspiciously, as if she didn't understand what he said.

Situ Xuan smiled, "I caught an assassin a few days ago, why don't you accompany Brother Huang to have a look?"

Shen Lixin nodded and hummed.

Situ Xuan led him to a cold palace. After entering, he found a hidden compartment in the corner of the wall. Kun Mu inlaid the token on his body, and with a click sound, the wall slowly opened, revealing a secret passage underground.Shen Lixin was startled, so there is still such a secret prison, but who is the assassin caught?

Kun Mu went down first, followed by Situ Xuan, and Shen Lixin hurriedly followed behind, the more he looked at this dense prison, the more frightened he became, it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was a fortress of iron and steel, and the guards were very strict, not to mention three steps and one post, every one They are all masters.

After walking more than ten meters, the end was very bright.After seeing Situ Xuan, a masked guard stepped forward and knelt down in front of Situ Xuan, "Your Majesty!"

Situ Xuan hummed, "Did that person recruit?"

"The subordinate is incompetent, that person has very hard bones, so he doesn't say anything!"

"I'll go take a look."

Shen Lixin pinched her own palm and told herself not to be surprised when she saw anything for a while, the emperor's brother must have brought him here on purpose.Every prison cell here is made of iron sheets, and there is only a small opening on the wall, which can be regarded as a window for ventilation.Apparently, all the people inside are more dangerous people.Shen Lixin followed Situ Xuan into a cell, the masked guards opened the cell door, he looked inside curiously, the people inside made him touch his chin in doubt, and frowned.

The person imprisoned inside was dressed in black brocade clothes and had long since lost his original appearance. His arms were tied and hung on the wall, his lute bone was pierced, his skin was torn and his flesh was covered in blood, his head was hanging down, and he couldn’t tell whether he was dead or alive. .But that figure, that attire, are obviously exactly the same as Ling Yunxiao.If he didn't feel nothing at all, Shen Lixin would definitely lose his mind. Even though he knew it was fake, he still bit the tip of his tongue when he saw it for the first time.Since Brother Huang used this person to test him, it meant that if he really caught Ling Yunxiao, he would dare to treat him like this.Where did that idiot go?

Situ Xuan secretly observed Shen Lixin's expression, seeing that he had no expression other than doubt, his eyes flashed with inquiry. "This man is a descendant of King Ling. I don't know how many secret parties he still hasn't revealed. Is there anything you can do?"

Shen Lixin walked over, picked up the guard's knife and propped up the man's face, the exposed face was exactly the same as Ling Yunxiao's.After such a flash, the man opened his eyes, and when he saw Shen Lixin in his long and narrow eyes, his voice was very hoarse, "Idiot, you are here..." Shen Lixin snorted coldly, holding the knife handle on the face of the man With a scabbard on his face, "Presumptuous!" The bullshit actually called him an idiot, you don't look like a counterfeit at all, Ling Yunxiao's eyes are more rogue when looking at him, not so evil!Ling Yunxiao's nose is straighter and more beautiful!Ling Yunxiao has a very small red mole behind his ear, but this person doesn't have one behind his ear!And the words were wrong, if Ling Yunxiao saw him at this time, he would definitely say: "Lady, do you want to be a husband?" instead of calling him an idiot affectionately!

Situ Xuan saw that he didn't hesitate in his actions, and the expression on his face was also calm, so he asked lightly: "Nian'er said how to deal with this person?"

Shen Lixin curled her lips, "If you don't say anything, continue the interrogation, if you can't get through the interrogation, kill him, just based on what you said just now, you should pull out his tongue!"

Situ Xuan groaned, with a smile in his voice, "Is there a way for you to make him speak?"

Shen Lixin shook his head, "I think Brother Huang should kill him. People with too hard bones can't tell the truth. If the person who tells the truth is a loyal minister, wouldn't he fall into his trap? Besides, it's over After so many years, he was still a child at that time, how much can he know?"

Situ Xuan nodded, "That makes sense! Then kill him."

When the man heard that he was going to kill him, he raised his head slowly, "Li Xin, you are really, really cruel-hearted, members of the royal family, cough cough..."

Shen Lixin was puzzled, "How do you know this king's previous name?"

Before the man could say anything, he lowered his head again, apparently fainted.

Shen Lixin looked at Situ Xuan in puzzlement, "Brother Huang, what's the matter with this man?"

Situ Xuan smiled, "It's nothing, let's go."

Shen Lixin nodded, followed behind Situ Xuan without looking back.Kunmu glanced back at the masked guard, he shook his head at Kunmu, the two exchanged glances, and then left in a hurry.

Shen Lixin followed Situ Xuan back to the imperial study room, and couldn't help but burst out laughing, "Brother Huang, you don't have to wink at them, I don't have amnesia, I was just guarding against Tang Mingche, and I was just playing with him when I frightened Zhiting Well, that Ling Yunxiao is a fake, I can tell right away!"

Situ Xuan...

Seeing that his eyes became dangerous, Shen Lixin touched his nose unnaturally, and held back the smile on his lips, "Well, I don't know what happened to my lover's cup, anyway, it's what you saw, then People have been tortured like that, and I still don’t feel anything, which means that person is a fake.”

Situ Xuan...

Shen Lixin smiled, "I don't care how you deal with Ling Yunxiao, as long as he dies, he hurts me, if you have the heart, then do it."

Situ Xuan's rare face was full of anger, and he looked a little embarrassed, he hated him for being so weak: "He ran away with a woman, and made you wait all night, you can forgive him! "

Shen Lixin blinked, obviously not knowing that Ling Yunxiao was going with a woman, but he was not worried, "Ling Yunxiao also has a lover's cup on him, he will die ugly if he dares to betray me, I don't have to worry."

Situ Xuan's face was dark, and the dark Shen Lixin didn't dare to stay longer, so he took the clothes that Situ Xuan prepared for him to wear for the ceremony, and hurriedly took leave.After he left, Kunmu told Situ Xuan, "Qingniao said that the prince's mood fluctuated a little at the beginning, probably because he was a little surprised to see the man's miserable state, but after that, his mood was very calm, and he should have recognized him from the beginning. "

Situ Xuan sighed, and laughed again after wandering around the imperial study, "You little brat!"

Kunmu lowered his head, the prince will be 25 after the new year, what kind of kid is he?

Situ Xuan thought for a while, "Bring back the person who stopped Ling Yunxiao. Since he has identified a person who will never repent, let Ling Yunxiao come back to protect him. Let's see if Ling Yunxiao can really protect him."
