In all well-behaved occasions, Xiang Yan was either prone to wandering off, or felt like he was sitting on pins and needles.The prince who has always been outstanding is the focus at all times, so if Xiang Yan wants to successfully play Xiang Jing, it is impossible to stay out of it and blatantly distract himself, so he has to face it bravely.And Xiang Yan in front of him looked obviously different from usual, which amused several insiders.

"Father of the country, I heard that the prince of Jing Kingdom is superb at chess, I want to see it."

For a while, Xiang Yan didn't understand the deep meaning of Huliyun's desire to save himself from "fire and water", and only complained secretly in his heart.It is a fact that Brother Huang's chess skills are superb, but how can my way of playing chess make Brother Huang famous?It doesn't matter that Xiang Yan is making jokes in front of everyone, but his current identity is Xiang Jing, and his chess skills have changed from being superior to being tricky and chaotic. Thinking of this, Xiang Yan is already ashamed of his brother Xiang Jing .

After weighing the importance, Xiang Yan was about to decline, but Xiang Xun didn't agree with Xiang Yan's intentions, and agreed to Huliyun, "Princess Huli has such a taste, why don't you let Jing'er accompany you, and you two can discuss it."

"This is very good." King Huli smiled and looked at Xiang Xun, then at Xiang Yan, "I hope the prince will be merciful, don't let Yun'er lose too badly, the daughter's family always wants face, the prince must give way to Dianyun." Son, haha..."

Xiang Yan laughed along with embarrassment, putting his last hope on Wan Ming.Wan Ming seemed to let Xiang Yan solve it by himself, avoiding Xiang Yan's eyes asking for help.

"Fusheng, order someone to put it on the chessboard."

Before Xiang Yan could say a word, the chessboard was just in front of him.Xiang Yan secretly glanced at Huliyun who proposed to play chess, and Huliyun pursed his lips, smiling unabated.

"Let them play chess here, and let's walk around the garden, king, what do you think?"

Xiang Xun mentioned that he rekindled the fire of hope in Xiang Yan's heart, and understood Xiang Xun's good intentions, and perhaps also realized that Hu Liyun might have good intentions.

King Huli was naturally happy to let his daughter and the "Prince" get along alone, and there was no reason not to agree.When Huliyun led his son to go first, the surrounding servants and servants also withdrew, leaving only Xiang Yan and Huliyun.

"You recognized me at a glance?" Xiang Yan asked straight away, regardless of the three sevens and twenty ones.

Huliyun pretended not to know, and responded calmly, "Your Highness, what are you talking about? It's your turn."

Xiang Yan frowned, and casually put down his words, "You recognized me, and are you still playing tricks on purpose?"

"Then who made you love pretending so much? His Royal Highness didn't show up sincerely, why can't you play tricks on you?"

"You want to see my imperial brother?" Xiang Yan asked in a daze, "You don't really want to marry my imperial brother, do you?"

Huliyun stopped holding the chess piece, looked at Xiang Yan, "Should I say yes?"

Xiang Yan frowned in confusion, his expression twisted.Hu Liyun placed a piece on the chessboard, and continued, "Your emperor brother is one in a million, an outstanding son of heaven, if I say I don't want to, don't I know what to do?"

"If you like it, you like it. If you don't like it, you don't like it. Regardless of whether the emperor is the prince of Jingguo or not, you should follow your own heart when it comes to feelings." Xiang Yan said solemnly, his mind was not on the chessboard at all.

"Follow your heart," Hu Liyun murmured, and smiled vainly, "I'm afraid not everyone can do whatever they want like you do."

Sensing Huliyun's faint disappointment, Xiang Yan also became serious, "What's the matter, did someone ask you to do something you don't want?"

"What if I say that this trip to Jing is not what I want?"

Hu Liyun met Xiang Yan's clear eyes, raised his eyebrows and asked, Xiang Yan couldn't help but feel a kind of provocation, hidden anger, not like a joke.Xiang Yan didn't respond, Huli Yunfu looked down at the chessboard again.

After a long silence, Xiang Yan put the chess pieces back into the chess box, "You don't like Jing country, you like your nation, and you don't like to stay away from your nation and go to Jing country, right?"

Xiang Yan's voice was unusually calm, and he looked at Hu Liyun who didn't look at her calmly.

"The person I like is not in the country of Jing. If I can win him over this time, I will never come to the country of Jing again..."

"That's really great. My imperial brother also doesn't like marriages without feelings. Now King Huli's wishful thinking won't work." After speaking, Xiang Yan got up and walked away.

Huliyun watched Xiang Yan walk away, looked down at the chessboard, how much better could his own chess be than Xiang Yan's?It turned out to be the same mess.

The sun was setting, and in the courtyard of the mansion, a bird with its legs bound was being played by the owner of the mansion, jumping up and down, screaming continuously.

"Master, the daughter of Qingfeng Rice Shop's family is going to distribute rice relief again, our people did not stop..."

The bird teaser stopped his hands, straightened up and asked, "Is that boy again? Haven't found the history yet?"

When the visitor bowed his head and said nothing, Boss Chen sighed, "A young brat can get rid of you, so what's the use of keeping you guys? It can't go on like this. Qingfeng's side is too popular. Suffering can't stop them, call the squad leader, I have something to tell him to do."

"Yes!"

When it was time to light the lamp, Xiang Jing had just seen Xiang Xun return to the East Palace, and Xing Zheng just finished his work and came back to order.

"His Royal Highness, the person you asked me to investigate, his full name is Chen Zhengxi, is a well-known and wealthy man in the capital. His ancestors have some family background. Later, the emperor relaxed the restrictions on doing business, so he seized the opportunity to start the sea salt business... as A businessman, he is indeed very resourceful, and he will desperately seek profit, and his reputation is gradually built up with the accumulation of wealth. The refugee you mentioned is because he insisted on building a saltworks, causing more than 100 people to be displaced... The government, There is not enough evidence to prove the existence of collusion between officials and businessmen, and even Chen Zhengxi was jailed for disrupting market order."

Xiang Jing listened carefully, and when Xing Zheng finished speaking, Xiang Jing smiled, "You can't be deceived by someone's appearance, this person is so capable, it's definitely not easy. Master Xing, send someone to keep watching him, In addition, I need Lord Xing to help me secretly protect someone."

Xing Zheng lowered his head and cupped his hands, "His Royal Highness just give orders!"

Su He caressed a piece of round jade in his hand, and looked at it over and over again under the candle. As long as he thought of Xiang Jing, Su He's heart would be full.

"Chuxin..." Su He said to himself, "I hold it, no matter what time or how long it has passed, you will come to me... Maisui, you are also very important to me."

Su He put the round jade to his lips and smiled softly.

"Quick, quick! Over there, go!"

A few black figures climbed over the wall and entered the Qingfeng shop, talking in whispers, carrying a few large wooden barrels furtively, and stopped in front of the locked warehouse in a hurry, and began to put the barrels in the barrels. Things splashed on the door panels, pillars, and windows, and there was a strong smell of oil around.

"Hey, what are you guys doing?!"

At the same time as the flames flashed, the night guards in the shop saw these strange people, shouted and rushed forward, but they couldn't stop the fire from spreading into a sea of ​​flames in an instant.

"Come on, come on! Put out the fire! Don't let them get away, catch them, catch them!!"

The boy desperately caught a person who set fire, and other people in the shop were alarmed, and they all picked up buckets to fight the fire.But the other two people who set fire on purpose did not run away. Instead, they turned over from outside the wall and flew into four or five men in black.

The firefighters couldn't react in time, but instinctively started to run and hide. The whole warehouse was on fire. Shopkeeper Su and Su He rushed over, but what they saw was not just a simple scene of fire, everyone in black was strong in martial arts. , cruel and merciless, massacred in front of a group of powerless people.

"Shopkeeper, miss, you go, they will kill you one by one, and they won't let you go, go!" Ah San dragged Su shopkeeper and Su He who were almost stunned.

"Why is this..."

Shopkeeper Su hadn't finished speaking when the gleaming blade rushed straight towards the door. Shopkeeper Su pushed away Su He who was beside him, and threw himself on the other side.The man in black followed closely with the tip of his knife, and shopkeeper Su stepped back. Seeing that the man in black was about to fall with his knife, Su He hurriedly picked up a stone from the ground and hit the man in black precisely on his knuckles.So painful that he lost his knife, the man in black clenched his fists, raised his legs and swept Shopkeeper Su to the ground.Shopkeeper Su knocked his head on the steps and lost consciousness.

"Father!" Su He scrambled and scrambled to go to shopkeeper Su, but Ah San couldn't stop him. If this went on, no one would be able to escape or survive.

"Ah!!" A person suddenly rushed over with a torch in both hands, and stood in front of the man in black, "I'm going to fight you bastards, come here, come here!"

"Butler Su..." Su He hugged the unconscious Shopkeeper Su, and looked at the butler who stepped forward, not knowing what to say.

"Ah San, quickly take Master and Miss away! If you keep the green hills, you don't have to worry about running out of firewood. The Qingfeng Rice Shop won't collapse so easily, and you people won't succeed by any means!"

Butler Su used his body and torch to stop in front of him almost madly, even the man in black with kung fu had some scruples.Ah San took the opportunity to push the wooden wheeled cart for transporting rice, dragged and dragged along with Su He to help the unconscious Shopkeeper Su sit on it.Ah San, who was handicapped in her legs and feet, desperately pushed the cart out, without any hindrance.The man in black couldn't chase after him even if he wanted to, the director of the Su family and the cremation became one, and every man in black couldn't avoid it.

Su He gradually moved away from the flames, jolting around, and hadn't recovered from the sudden shock. Su He's eyes were filled with tears, and he clenched his hands tightly. His mood fell from the sweetness of the previous moment to bewilderment and panic. , anger, remorse and despair.
