Chapter 42 Before the Storm Comes

Beijing.

Prince Qing's Mansion.

Lanxi Court.

"Husband, after so long, is there still no news of Qi'er?"

The man who had been standing in the yard without speaking, sighed softly when he heard the sound, "No. But the dark guard found that Ziyang and his three brothers and sisters disappeared together with Qi'er."

"I guess, nine out of ten people arranged by my father-in-law picked me up. But I don't know who killed my father-in-law's family."

"A year ago, I was crowned king. It was only because Qi'er was weak that I stayed in the capital for a few more months. But I didn't expect such a thing to happen when I was about to leave. Wan'er, I always feel that it is I killed my father-in-law's family."

Hearing the helplessness and pain in the man's words, the weeping woman raised her Liuguang almond eyes and comforted softly: "Husband, it's not your fault. I'm afraid those people have planned it long ago, otherwise they wouldn't have chosen After the family dinner."

"If we didn't return home that night,..."

"Ugh…"

The man sighed again, looking at the unknown distance with a melancholy face...

The man, with the compound surname Xuanyuan and single name Qing, is 23 years old and the third son of the highest position in the Song Dynasty.A year ago, he was named King Qing, and the three northernmost state capitals were assigned to him.

The three northernmost mansions are Ningyuan Mansion, Qingyang Mansion and Hanlan Mansion.

A dignified prince was crowned king, and his right to compete had already been cut off. This fief was actually only three state capitals, which was enough to show that he didn't value the third son.

Xuanyuan Qing got married six years ago to Xiao Yuwan, a lady from General Pingyuan's residence.The two of them sang in harmony, their love increased, and the next year they gave birth to a daughter named Xuanyuan Moqi.

This warm day was broken half a year ago.

Xuanyuan Qing was going to take his wife and daughter to the fiefdom, so the Xiao family held a family banquet.

Who would have thought that for this family feast, no one in the Xiao family survived except the three brothers and sisters Xiao Ziyang.

After hearing the news, Xuanyuan Qing staggered a few steps, raised his head and asked the sky, why did he do this?
He's not stupid, he vaguely guessed who did it, but he didn't dare to say it.

He also wants to find his daughter, nephew and niece, and he will spend his whole life protecting them.

However, after searching for half a year, I found nothing.

At this moment, he actually received an imperial edict from his father urging him to go to the fiefdom.

Xuanyuan Qing clenched his fists tightly, suppressing the anger that rushed into his throat, and ordered his servants to pack up.

Taking advantage of this time, he came to Lanxi Garden and looked at his daughter's favorite crabapple in the yard.

This was the conversation between the two before.

a long time.

Xuanyuan Qing whispered: "Madam, the road ahead may be very dangerous, are you ready?"

Xiao Yuwan, who was dressed in a smart attire, was standing behind him at the moment, her red lips lightly parted and she replied, "I haven't held a sword for many years, so I'm really a bit raw."

Hearing this, Xuanyuan Qing hooked the corners of his mouth, turned around and said: "I broke my promise, I promised not to let you take the sword again, and I will protect you. But now I want you..."

Xiao Yuwan shook her head, "You and I are one, hurting you is hurting me. I believe that Qi'er and the others are still alive, waiting for us to pick them up."

"As long as my daughter lives well, I, Xiao Yuwan, am not afraid of turning into a demon!"

"If you become a demon, I, Xuanyuan Qing, will follow you to the death!"

The two looked at each other fixedly, and then walked out of the yard hand in hand.

Going to the fief this time, Xuanyuan Qing didn't know when he would be able to return to the capital, or in other words, whether he would be able to return to the capital in the future.

Therefore, except for the people and items that had to be taken away, let them stay at Prince Qing's Mansion, hand over Prince Qing's Mansion to his mother and let his housekeeper Zhao Wensi take care of it.

"My lord and concubine, please don't worry, this old slave will definitely take care of the palace and wait for the masters to come back."

"Well, thank you, Uncle Zhao."

"The princess is serious. This is what an old slave should do. Please also ask the princess to take good care of the prince along the way."

"Well, go back, take care of the palace, if someone tampers with it, you can deal with it directly."

"Yes, my lord."

Xuanyuan Qing helped Xiao Yuwan into the carriage, stepped up himself, and then led a group of people towards the city gate...

half a month.

The whole journey was quiet, which made Xuanyuan Qing and Xiao Yuwan even more uneasy.

Before the storm comes, there is often calm.

This may be a sign of the coming storm.

It was a coincidence that King Qing's residence was within the scope of Qingyang Mansion.

It was built half a year ago and is now awaiting the arrival of its owner.

And the capital city is not far from Qingyang Mansion. According to Xuanyuan Qing's speed, they will arrive within one and a half months.

Now half a month has passed, and it is getting closer and closer to Qingyang Mansion.

Likewise, it means a storm is coming.

Five more days passed.

There was snow in the sky.

Pieces of snowflakes danced in the air with the wind, sometimes falling on the shoulders, sometimes on the top of the head, and sometimes dancing on the noses of everyone.

Feeling the coldness brought by the snowflakes, the accompanying guards looked around more vigilantly, their hands still on the hilt of their swords.

The sky gradually darkened, and a group of people came to an inn.

"We have a guest! Please come to the distinguished guest~"

Xuanyuan Qing and Xiao Yuwan nodded as a signal, and walked into the inn, the chill on their bodies instantly dissipated by five points.

The leader of the guards, Ying Ying, asked, "Shopkeeper, is there any room available?"

"Yes, yes, how many guest officers are there?"

"Three upper rooms, and then arrange some fodder to feed the horses."

"Come on. There are three Tianzi rooms." The shopkeeper shouted, and then made a gesture of invitation to the shadow, "Guest officer, upstairs, Tianzi No. , and ."

"Ah."

After responding, Yin Ying led four people up to look around, leaving one person at the door of each room, and then walked down and spoke to Xuanyuan Qing, "Master, I've seen everything, there's nothing wrong with it."

"Well. Thank you for your hard work. Don't sleep too deeply at night."

"Yes, sir."

"Well, madam, let's go."

When a group of people went up the stairs, the shopkeeper tilted his head and glanced again. Seeing that there was indeed no one in sight, he summoned a waiter, whispered a few words, and then quickly ran towards the back kitchen...

Tianzi No. room.

Only then did Xuanyuan Qing, who was seated, speak out, "Yang Ying, there is something wrong with that shopkeeper, be careful at night."

"Yes, my subordinate understands."

"Well, go talk to the big guys."

"Yes."

After Yingying left, Xiao Yuwan said thoughtfully: "Husband, why do you think the other party is taking such painstaking efforts?"

"You have already been crowned king, and you are not interested in that. Doesn't that make them feel at ease?"

Xuanyuan Qing took Xiao Yuwan's hand and stroked it, and said softly: "Madam, whether I am interested or not, they will never let me go."

"In that family, being tricked is commonplace, and it's not uncommon to be hunted down. This is the tragedy of being in that family..."

Before the word mourning was uttered, a murderous arrow broke through the window.

 It will be on the shelves tomorrow, thank you all friends for your support, thank you for having you!Daily four requests, asking for collection, asking for monthly pass, asking for reward, asking for sharing
