Quickly pass through, why do you have to die
Chapter 2 Scapegoat 2
: "No need." Although the voice was deep and sweet, it always made people feel a little sinister.
The guard who delivered the money returned to the carriage and entered the city together with the carriage.
The guard saw that Xia Rong and Han Zheng had also entered the city, and then he showed a look of fear on his face, and muttered: "I don't know what this Lord Hades means..."
Although Licheng has a bad reputation, the city has a good appearance. There are many shops in the city, and the people on the street are all neatly dressed and calm. They are not as filthy and messy as Han Zheng imagined.
The two came to an inn called "Liren Inn". The waiter in the inn had a warm smile on his face and asked, "Are you two going to the top or staying in the inn?"
Han Zheng answered "staying in a hotel", but thought in his heart: This Licheng seems to be just a scary name.
The shop waiter said: "Okay! Guest officer, please!" After finishing speaking, he bowed and made a "please" gesture.
"Ah—" A sharp and short voice suddenly sounded, Han Zheng was startled, and looked behind him.
I saw a person lying there in the middle of the store, with blood slowly flowing out from under him, and a strong smell of blood rushed to his face, and on the seat next to him, a man with a gloomy face was gently wiping the blood on the knife, The others turned a blind eye and continued to laugh at Yanyan.
Han Zheng only felt chills in his heart. These people were still laughing one second, and they could kill wantonly in the next second. It seemed that Licheng really lived up to its name.I couldn't help but glanced at Xia Rong, and found that he was still smiling happily, walking upstairs with Xiao Er, and couldn't help but admire him.
Han Zheng didn't know that, in fact, the waiter and other people in the store were also looking at them from the corner of their eyes.One is in a plain robe with fluttering sleeves, and looks thin and frail, while the other is tall and mighty, but looks embarrassed. These two people are easy to bully, but they never expected them to see such a bloody thing. The scene was extremely calm and composed, and it seemed that it was not a good thing.
Everyone naturally stood still.
In a room on the second floor of the inn, a person stood in front of the window, seeing what happened downstairs, his eyes seemed to be fixed on the handsome and frail young man, and he smiled sinisterly.
Seeing this, the subordinates around him couldn't help but tremble, what terrible thing is this Lord Hades thinking?He was becoming more and more confused about what his master was thinking.When he was at the gate of the city before, he let himself give money to strangers for the first time, and now he is peeping at people here, and showing such a terrifying smile, he really can't understand.
Could it be, could it be that the master has taken a fancy to her beauty?Thinking of this, he couldn't help shaking. Just thinking about it made him feel like a sin.
"Qin Er, go and find out his identity."
"Yes, master!" Qin Er took the order and left.
Xia Rong sensitively sensed that someone was observing her, so she looked up upstairs, only to see that the window of a room was open, but there was no one behind.
Li Chengming hid behind the window and stroked his throbbing chest with his right hand. He couldn't help frowning, what's going on?From the moment I saw him outside the city, I seemed to be a different person. Emotions such as excitement, excitement, and joy that had nothing to do with him swarmed in. I didn't want to see him being made things difficult by the guards, so I sent him to Yin Zi, just now caused trouble downstairs, and I was afraid that he would be frightened, he had never felt this way before, and he didn't know what to do.
Thinking that he was almost discovered just now, he couldn't help but smile sinisterly.
Xia Rong and Han Zheng stayed at the Liren Inn, because they had little left on their bodies, they could only make do with one room.
After Li Chengming knew about it, his heart felt a little sour, and he sat alone in the room, in a daze for a long time.
"Master?" Hearing Qin Er's voice outside the door, Li Chengming told him to enter the room quickly.
Qin Er saw his master's dark and bright eyes staring at him closely, he couldn't help wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, and said: "Master, we have found it. This person's name is Xia Rong, and he is Xia Wei, the former general of the town. His son, three years ago, the general's mansion ransacked all the families, but he escaped by chance and became a guest of the Huaiyin Palace incognito. However, a few days ago, Xia Rong's identity was exposed and he left the Huaiyin Palace. Only then did he arrive at Li City, and now he is wanted by the court. hunt."
After Qin Er finished his narration, he was waiting for instructions from his master when he heard Li Chengming's cool voice: "You called Xia Rong too?"
Qin Er really wanted to kneel down to this master: Master, is there something wrong with your focus?
However, he still obediently admitted his mistake: "The subordinate offended, please punish the master."
Li Chengming tapped the table with his fingertips and asked, "Who is the person beside him?"
Qin Er said in his heart that it's lucky that the master didn't mention punishment.
"The man's name is Han Zheng. He is the son of Han Qing, General Xia's former lieutenant general. He also followed Mr. Xia after he left Huaiyin Palace."
"Ah."
Qin Er: What do you mean by "um"?
He waited for a while but still didn't hear his master's next instruction, so he mustered up the courage to look up at Li Chengming, only to find that his wise and mighty master was staring out the window in a daze...
"Master, if there is no order, this subordinate will leave first." Qin Er just wanted to get away from the obviously abnormal master today.
"Hold on."
Qin Er immediately cheered up and listened to Shangyin.
"Go..." Li Chengming paused, but still made up his mind: "Go and give him some silver taels."
Qin Er was stunned, is this really good?However, the master's order still had to be carried out, so he resignedly took some silver taels, went to the room where Xia Rong and Han Zheng lived, and knocked on the door.
Han Zheng opened the door and saw that it was a kind-hearted man who gave money at the gate of the city!He said: "Well, brother, thank you for your help outside the city just now. My son and I are very grateful, but we haven't raised any money yet, so we can't pay it back. Please leave your name, brother. In the future, we will definitely pay you back." Still on."
Qin Er was expressionless, and looked at the person who had talked for a long time with his eyes motionless, thinking: This person talks a lot!
"That's my master's order. You don't have to thank me, and you don't have to pay back the money. Besides," Qin Er said, he took out a purse from his arms and stuffed it into Han Zheng's hand, saying, "This is from my master." , and there is no need to pay back." After saying that, the figure flashed, and the person disappeared.
Han Zheng looked at the direction he was leaving, opened his mouth, but held back what he wanted to say.
He closed the door blankly, and said to Xia Rong who was standing in front of the window: "Who is this? Why do you give us money so many times? Holding this in my hand, I always feel uneasy."
Xia Rong looked away from the direction Qin Er left, stretched out her hand and said, "Bring me to see."
Han Zheng handed him the purse and said, "There are at least 200 taels in it. This man is really generous. Shall we return it?"
Xia Rong lightly touched the purse, the shape of the purse was not surprising, but it was made of this material, huh.
How come it feels so familiar when you can make such a big deal when you meet for the first time?Thinking of Shen Li from the previous world, Xia Rong's heart moved slightly.
Seeing that Xia Rong was just stroking the purse in thought, Han Zheng asked, "My lord, is there something wrong with this purse?"
Xia Rong shook her head, "No problem." After handing the purse back to him, she seemed to remember something, and said, "You don't need to return it, you take this money and go to the shopkeeper to open another room."
Han Zheng thought about it, and felt that it was not good for the two of them to share a room. After all, the young master was born in a noble family, and since he was a child, he was well-clothed and well-fed, so he didn't want to share a bed with others, so he said: "Then I will choose a room that is close to the young master. Room." After saying that, he went out and went downstairs.
After Qin Er informed Li Chengming of the news, the sourness in Li Chengming's heart gradually disappeared.
After Han Zheng went downstairs, he found that the corpses and blood in the store had been disposed of, and he couldn't help but feel worried.Before, I saw that the waiter in the shop was no different from the ones outside, but now I am surprised that this small inn has such ability, and this Licheng really has no law at all, only powerful power judges life and death.
"Guest officer, do you need anything?" Seeing Han Zheng, the waiter hurriedly smiled and asked.
Seeing his smile, Han Zheng felt a little uncomfortable, so he said, "Open us another upper room, the one closest to the previous one."
The shop waiter looked at the silver in his hand, and immediately beamed with joy, "Okay, wait a moment, sir." After saying that, he ran to the shopkeeper with the silver.
Han Zhengzheng felt a little strange, when suddenly there was a sound of wind behind his ears, he suddenly turned sideways, and saw a throwing knife in front of him nailed to the handrail of the stairs on his left.If he couldn't dodge in time, wouldn't he be killed by the knife?Thinking about it, he turned and glared.
Not far away, a man was playing with a throwing knife in his hand, looking at him maliciously, and said: "The skill is pretty good, but if you don't want to die, just put down all the money on your body, and I will let you live."
Han Zheng clenched his fists and said in a deep voice, "You don't have that qualification."
The man's hand stopped moving, and he snorted, and the three throwing knives pierced Han Zheng's three vitals in a tricky way.
The man saw him dodging again, his face was extremely ugly, and in an instant, six throwing knives came out, approaching Han Zheng, blocking his avoiding direction, Han Zheng was terrified, closed his eyes and waited to die, but listened to the man There was a scream, and then the sound of something heavy falling to the ground.
When he opened his eyes, he saw that the flying knife man had fallen into a pool of blood, with a total of six knives pierced into his body.
The inn was silent.
"Those who want to kill me must have the awareness of death." Han Zheng heard Xia Rong say this.
I thought he was a frail scholar, but he didn't expect to be a hidden master. The people in the inn who were ready to move before were all shocked.
Without any movement, the flying knife returned back the same way strangely, what kind of martial arts is this?When did such a master come out?
That man clearly had a wide-sleeved gown and was cold like a fairy, but he was also a ruthless person who killed people without blinking an eye. Now, no one in the inn dared to find fault with him anymore.
The waiter in the shop also came back to his senses in an instant, and came to Xia Rong with the silver in his hands, with a look of awe, and said: "It's a villain who has eyes but doesn't know Mount Tai. It's an honor for the small shop to have this young master staying here. How can I accept him?" Your money? Please accept it, my lord."
Xia Rong's brows were indifferent, and she only said: "Business is a matter of course, I stay in the shop, you collect money, there is no need to do so."
The shop waiter also knew that the person in front of him didn't care about the yellow and white thing, so he thanked him with a wink and stepped back.
Li Chengming originally wanted to send someone down to help, but he didn't expect that Xia Rong possessed peerless martial arts. He thought about it and thought it should be so, this person is so outstanding.
Qin Er also watched the whole scene, and was also shocked by Xia Rong's martial strength. He never expected Xia Rong's martial arts to be so advanced. It seemed that his intelligence had made a mistake, and he looked at his master with some trepidation in his heart.
But there seemed to be a slight smile on the corner of his master's mouth?He rubbed his eyes involuntarily, and felt relieved when he found that the master still looked so gloomy.Just say, when will his master smile?It's even more unbelievable than the emperor dying in the next second.
"Qin Er, go and find out, where is he going?"
Hearing his master's voice, he immediately perked up his ears, and immediately rolled down to do business.
☆, son of the general 3
Beijing.
The emperor Li Chengjing was happily playing with the beauties on the dragon couch, when the chief executive Jin Fu tremblingly said respectfully outside the hall: "Your Majesty, Your Highness the Eldest Princess is asking to see you outside the hall."
Li Chengjing stopped touching the beauty's slender waist, squinted his eyes, and said in a deep voice, "Just say that I want to go to bed and let her go back..."
"Your Majesty, I have been waiting for a long time." The Eldest Princess was dressed in plain clothes outside the door, her tone was cold.
Li Chengjing felt a little irritable, pushed the beauty, said: "You step back first." Then he said to the outside, "Sister Huang, come in."
The eldest princess didn't look sideways, and walked into the hall majesticly, smelling the beautiful fragrance in the hall, disgusted in her heart, without looking at Li Chengjing, sat down directly, and said: "I heard that the emperor wanted Xia Rong, the son of General Xia, all over the country?"
Li Chengjing drank a cup of tea leisurely, Fang said: "You want to take care of it?"
The eldest princess suddenly sneered, and said: "I can't control it if I want to, but your majesty, you can't kill Xia Rong no matter what."
Li Chengjing sneered, "What? That's because your beloved man had sex with other women, and you can't bear it?"
The eldest princess jumped up, "Li Chengjing! Back then, you disregarded the feelings of brothers, and the righteousness of the monarch and ministers destroyed the entire family of the general's house! How can you still laugh now? Your conscience has been eaten by dogs?"
Li Chengjing's eyes changed, and he looked at the eldest princess with a viper-like gaze, and said, "Li Chengjin, if you weren't the elder sister of my mother's compatriots, do you think I would keep you until today?"
Li Chengjin laughed, "Li Chengjing, I have lived in hiding for three years. I didn't expect you to become so vicious. Heh, who cried bitterly in front of me three years ago, begging me to forgive you? Can you sit on your dragon chair? When I went to the battlefield, you didn't know where you were crying!"
Li Chengjing hates others to bring up his cowardice. He is the emperor and the Ninth Five-Year Supreme. Everyone in the world has to listen to him. Those who dare to disobey him usually end badly. For example, Xia Wei.
Now Li Chengjin pointed at him and scolded him, he didn't want to live anymore!
"Li Chengjin, don't rely on your identity to run amok. What you have, I can give you, and naturally I can take it back. Don't try to anger me. You know the consequences. Even if you are my elder sister, No exception!"
Li Chengjin looked at the emperor's cold eyes, and his heart gradually became barren.Once upon a time, the younger brother who needed her protection turned into the cold-blooded and cruel appearance he is now?His dragon chair was earned by himself and Xia Wei through hard work and hardships, but he didn't miss any of his old love.She should have figured it out, she should have figured it out the day Xia Wei died, she didn't know her brother at all.
"Your Majesty, do you believe in the cycle of karma?" the Eldest Princess asked in an erratic tone.
Li Chengjing sneered, "Of course I believe it, don't you see? Those who bullied me before have already returned them ten times and a hundred times."
"So, you didn't earn this throne yourself. It's hard to say whether you can sit still. I'm waiting for that day." After Li Chengjin said, he didn't want to look at him any more, and turned around and left, with his long skirt on the ground together One volt seems to indicate the change of the country and the country.
Li Chengjing suddenly felt uneasy.
"Jin Fu!" He called out the door, his voice changed a little.
Jin Fu quickly rolled in, bowed his head and said, "What orders does Your Majesty have?"
Li Chengjing paused, regained his composure, and asked, "Why is there no news about the person I sent to assassinate Xia Rong?"
Jin Fu respectfully replied: "Your Majesty, the capital city is far away from the city, maybe they haven't arrived yet, Your Majesty might as well wait patiently..."
Li Chengjing stretched out his hand and threw the cup angrily, "Wait! Wait! Wait! You trash! Why is it so difficult to kill someone? You go and send more people, and you must kill him!"
Jin Fu took the order and left.
At this time, a little eunuch outside the hall tremblingly came in to clean up the broken pieces of porcelain on the ground. Li Chengjing was feeling depressed. Seeing the little eunuch's shrinking look, he felt malicious in his heart, and said, "You! Give me all the broken pieces on the ground. have eaten!"
Hearing this, the little eunuch knelt down on the ground, trembling all over, begging for mercy miserably: "Your Majesty, please forgive me! Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"
"I just let you eat them, but didn't let you die, what kind of life should I spare?" Li Chengjing said with a sinister smile.He just likes to see people wagging their tails and begging for mercy in front of him.
The little eunuch still begged.
Li Chengjing became impatient, and said to the outside of the hall: "Come here!"
Immediately two eunuchs came in.
Li Chengjing pointed to the little eunuch on the ground and said: "You let him swallow the things on the ground, otherwise, you will eat for him."
The two eunuchs naturally did not dare to disobey the perverted emperor, so they could only press down on the eunuch on the ground and stuff the porcelain piece directly into his mouth.The little eunuch wailed in pain, but later his throat was cut and he couldn't even cry out, a lot of blood flowed out of his mouth, and he died.When he died, his eyes were fixed on Li Chengjing, full of deep-seated hatred.
Li Chengjing waved his hand, "Go and deal with it!"
The two eunuchs dragged the corpse and retreated respectfully, so Li Chengjing didn't see the fear and deep hatred in their eyes.
Since Han Zheng was almost killed, Xia Rong began to teach him martial arts, and Han Zheng was naturally very happy.The two stayed in Licheng for several days and heard a lot of news.
"Young master, tell me, who is this King of Hell? Most people in Licheng are afraid of him, but they don't know his true face." Han Zheng asked while eating.
Xia Rong put down the bowls and chopsticks, wiped the corners of her mouth, and said, "I don't know, but you should be careful these days, I've noticed that someone is spying on us."
"What?" Han Zheng was so surprised that he stopped eating, and asked, "Do you know who it is, my lord?"
Xia Rong shook her head, "I only know more than one group of people. However, there should be people from the emperor among them."
Han Zheng suddenly became solemn, and said, "They are not looking for a chance to attack, are they?"
Xia Rong nodded and said, "Once we leave Licheng, we will definitely be ambushed."
Han Zheng asked, "Then what is your plan?"
Xia Rong said calmly: "We will continue on our way, don't worry about those monsters."
Han Zheng didn't worry anymore when he thought of Xia Rong's force value.
After packing up their luggage, the two of them prepared to depart from Licheng to Zicheng.
Seeing that the big Buddha was about to leave, the waiter in the shop immediately stepped forward and said, "My lord, are you leaving Licheng?"
Seeing the obsequiousness of the little girl, Han Zheng's teeth were a little sour, and he said, "That's true." Xia Rong glanced at a certain place on the second floor.
Li Chengming leaned his back against the wall, thinking of Xia Rong's gaze just now, he felt his chest throbbing violently, which couldn't be calmed down, so he called Qin Er and said, "Arrange to go back immediately."
Qin Er sighed inwardly: After this master knew that Mr. Xia was going to Zicheng, he was so excited that he didn't fall asleep all night. This Mr. Xia is really the master's nemesis.
After Xia Rong and Han Zheng left Licheng, they found a few small tails behind them.
There are several mountains between Licheng and Zicheng, so you need to take a detour.Han Zheng originally thought that the imperial court in a place like Licheng would definitely not be willing to build official roads, and the roads should be difficult to walk, but he never expected that the roads here are very flat and wide.
Han Zheng asked after thinking about it.
Xia Rong said: "This road leads to Zicheng, who do you think built it?"
"Could it be King Liu?" Han Zheng asked in surprise.
Xia Rong nodded, "King Liu is not the emperor's brother, but he can live to this day, which shows that he is not an ordinary person. He built roads because he must have close contacts with Licheng, and Licheng's geographical location happens to be a strategic location. You What do you think, King Liu is planning?"
Han Zheng is not a stupid person, he was restrained by his own stereotypes before, but now after listening to Xia Rong's analysis, he felt suddenly enlightened, and he became a little more serious about King Liu in his heart.
"Here we come." Xia Rong suddenly said.
Han Zheng's expression froze, his eyes paying attention to the movement around him.
An arrow flashed across the air, and then, countless arrows came from the dense forest on both sides of the road. Han Zheng felt that he was enveloped in the arrow net, and it was impossible to escape, but he also picked up the arrow in his hand. Jian wanted to take a fight, but was dumbfounded the next second.
I saw Xia Rong spread his hands out, and the leaves all over the ground instantly surrounded the two of them, forming an unbreakable sphere, no matter how many arrows there were, they couldn't shake it at all.
The other two groups of people following Xia Rong seemed to have seen a miracle.
Qin Er looked at his master's face from distorted to furious to shocked to obsessed, and spontaneously analyzed in his heart: The person I have a crush on has been attacked!Which grandson doesn't want to live anymore, who dares to touch Lao Tzu?The martial arts of the person I like is so unfathomable?He is so wonderful!
"Master, the people we sent out to protect Mr. Xia..."
"Let them continue." Li Chengming said without thinking.
Qin Er: Master, are you addicted to voyeurism?
The people watching the bustle outside have far less intense senses than those in the center of the storm.Han Zheng was completely surrounded by fragile leaves. He could only smell the fragrance of the leaves, and he could only see the blue and yellow intertwined leaves protecting him airtightly. As their leaves exploded all of a sudden, countless screams came from the dense forest, and the air was gradually filled with a strong and disgusting bloody smell. With one move, corpses littered the field.
Han Zheng and the bystanders deeply admired him.
Even though he killed so many people in an instant, Xia Rong still looked indifferent. He was not like a demon who kills without batting an eye, but a god overlooking all living beings.
Li Chengming only felt that the blood in his whole body was boiling and clamoring, he couldn't wait to get close to this person, wanted to have this person alone and completely, no, this was his god.
"Qin Er."
Qin Er came to his senses, but his eyes were still a little dull.
"What's your master's order?"
"It's a long way to Zicheng, please come up and sit down, Mr. Xia." Li Chengming's voice was clearly full of excitement.
Qin Er: Are you talking nonsense with your eyes open?Where is it far?
However, he could only slander and go heroically with Li Chengming's instructions.
Before Han Zheng had time to express his admiration to Xia Rong, he saw the guard who had borrowed two taels of silver walking towards them.
"Master Xia, my master said that it's a long way to Zicheng, please get on the carriage and take a rest." Qin Er said expressionlessly.
Xia Rong looked at the carriage not far away, raised her eyebrows slightly, and said, "Thank you for your kindness, master, but it's only a few miles away, and we'll arrive in no time."
Qin Er cried in his heart: Mr. Xia, you have always refused to agree. The master is angry, but I am unlucky.
"However," Xia Rong smiled, "I spent some energy just now, but now I'm a little tired. It's better to take a ride in the carriage."
Qin Er instantly saw redemption.
☆, son of the general 4
Ever since Xia Rong got on the carriage, Li Chengming has been in an uncomfortable state.
"Young Master has helped me many times, and Xia Rong is very grateful." Xia Rong and Li Chengming sat facing each other, and said with a smile, "May I ask you your surname?"
Li Chengming has always been ruthless, and there are only two types of people: those who are useful and those who deserve to die.But as soon as he saw Xia Rong, his heart beat faster, his mind was confused, and he was at a loss.At this moment, I saw this person sitting across from me, only less than a foot away, his every move seemed to be able to arouse my heartbeat, only the heartbeat was beating like a drum in my ear, and I couldn't hear what he was saying at all.
Xia Rong met the handsome man with cold brows who was staring at him blankly, feeling amused in his heart, so he could only ask, "Your surname?"
Li Chengming suddenly came back to his senses, only feeling the heat in his ears, nana replied: "My surname is Li."
Xia Rong's heart moved: the surname is Li, and the status is so valuable, so there is no one else except Liu Wang.
"Xia Rong has met King Liu."
Li Chengming was startled suddenly, and then he felt a kind of pride spontaneously, the person he was looking for was so wise.
"Young Master Xia, you don't need to be too polite, just treat me as a normal friend."
Qin Er outside the car: Where did that vicious King Liu go?
Han Zheng outside the car: It turned out to be Liu Wang, who has helped them so many times, what a fate!
Xia Rong said with a smile: "Courtesy cannot be dismissed, the lord has a noble status, I am just a wanted criminal, how can I be compared with the lord? To tell the truth, I came here to join the lord, I wonder if the lord can give me a meal?"
Seeing his posture so low, Li Chengming felt a little depressed, and said: "I am short of talents, Mr. Xia has unique skills, is smart and wise, it is my luck to help me!" After speaking, he felt warm all over his body , The gloominess between the brows also gradually disappeared.
Xia Rong noticed with sharp eyes that Li Chengming's ears were slightly red, and she couldn't help but think of Shen Li in the previous world, and his ears were prone to redness when his mood was agitated.
"My lord is too flattering."
Hearing that the one on the left was on the bottom and the one on the right was on the bottom, Li Chengming felt really annoyed, so he said: "A Rong doesn't have to be so different, my name is Zhongqing, you can just call me Zhongqing."
Xia Rong was stunned for a moment, this person's style was really similar to Shen Li's.Thinking that the person in front of him might be his lover, Xia Rong stretched his eyebrows and said bluntly: "Zhongqing, you can call me Zicheng."
Li Chengming was instantly elated. He chewed on "Zicheng" repeatedly, only to feel that although the expression somewhat matched his own, it was not as friendly as Arong, so he said, "Zicheng is good, but I'll call you Arong. .”
Xia Rong saw his happy appearance, and heard that he insisted on calling him "A Rong", and couldn't help thinking of the way Shen Li often called him "Xiao Rong" in his ear, with a hint of nostalgia in his expression.
It was dusk when the carriage arrived at Prince Liu's Mansion.
The butler, Li Da, was already waiting in front of the door. When he saw the carriage parked in front of the palace, he rushed forward to greet him and said, "Welcome the prince back to the palace!"
Han Zheng thought to himself: The housekeeper has no abnormal expression when he sees his face, which shows that this Liuwang's mansion is really extraordinary.
Without thinking about it, Li Chengming got off the car ahead of Xia Rong, then naturally stretched out his hand and said, "A Rong, be careful when getting out of the car, I will support you."
This move of his really stunned all the servants of the palace, and they couldn't help guessing, could there be someone more noble in this carriage?
Only the corners of Qin Er's mouth twitched: Master, do you have to be so obvious with your idiot face?
Xia Rong really couldn't bear Li Chengming's attention, so she got off the carriage and said politely, "Thank you Zhongqing for your kindness, but I'm not a weak person, Zhongqing doesn't have to be so careful."
After hearing this, Li Chengming put down his hand a little aggrieved.
The steward and the servants behind him have been petrified.
Li Chengming led Xia Rong into the mansion, and asked Li Da: "Is the meal ready?"
Li Da regained his sanity, and said respectfully: "Go back to the prince, it's ready, the old slave will let the dining room serve the food."
"Wait." Li Chengming said suddenly.
Li Dali stood where he was, waiting to be dispatched.
Li Chengming thought for a while and said, "Let the dining room prepare a chicken shoot porridge, hibiscus eggs, and plum blossom buns immediately, the sooner the better!"
Li Da withdrew immediately and ordered the dining room.
Xia Rong's heart felt as if the river was overwhelmed. He stared at Li Chengming blankly, and there seemed to be a thousand words in his eyes.
When Li Chengming saw him like this, he remembered what stupid thing he had done, and quickly explained: "Ah Rong, I didn't know what happened just now, I just thought you like to eat these for dinner, don't mind if I'm wrong, I I ordered the dining room to do it again."
Seeing his bewildered look, Xia Rong smiled slightly and said, "Zhongqing is right, I really like these." He and Shen Li have lived together for decades, and the two of them are very clear about each other's preferences. If Li Chengming wasn't Shen Li, how could he be so familiar with him?
Seeing that he spoke sincerely, Li Chengming was overjoyed. He couldn't help but grabbed Xia Rong's wrist and said, "The dining room will be ready in a while. I'll take you to pick the yard first."
Seeing that Han Zheng wanted to follow, Qin Er grabbed him in time and said, "Follow me, and I will guide you to choose a yard."
Han Zheng said: "I don't have to choose, I just live next door to the young master."
Qin Er rolled his eyes in his heart, but said: "Master Xia naturally wants to stay close to Master, you live with us."
Han Zheng also knew that this was someone else's house, so he naturally wanted to obey the master's rules, so he stopped demanding, and just said: "Then please trouble brother, by the way, I don't know your name. I'm going to Han Zheng."
Qin Er was expressionless, and said as he walked: "Don't dare to be the one, just call me Qin Er."
Han Zheng let out an "oh".
Li Chengming brought Xia Rong happily to the courtyard where he lived, and asked, "How is this courtyard?"
Xia Rong looked around, nodded, and praised: "The layout is exquisite, spacious and bright, not bad."
The smile on the corner of Li Chengming's mouth could not be stopped, and he completely lost his usual sinister look. He said: "A Rong, you also know that I want to make trouble. Now that you are here to help me, we naturally discuss matters from time to time. How about , you live next door to me, which is more convenient, how about it?"
Four words popped up in Xia Rong's mind: Fake public affairs for personal gain!
Seeing the man's awkward and awkward look, he said softly, "That's fine."
Only then did Li Chengming drag him to have dinner contentedly.
Originally, Li Chengming was the only one who stayed in the palace. Every time he ate alone, the housekeeper helped prepare the dishes, but tonight was different.
Li Da watched his lord pull that young master to sit directly next to him, and kept serving porridge and vegetables for that young master graciously. He felt that he was abandoned in an instant. It was really embarrassing to stand here... However, in his heart There is also a care, and I plan to beat the servants of the whole house later, so don't neglect Mr. Xia.
Xia Rong watched Li Chengming amusedly letting herself eat, so she put a piece of steamed fish in his bowl and said, "You can eat it too."
Li Chengming looked at the fish in the bowl, the smile on his brows could hardly be hidden, it softened the hostility between his brows, and his whole person became gentle.He picked up the fish in the bowl and tasted it slowly mouthful by mouthful.
Although Li Da felt that he was about to be blinded by the prince's sweetness, he was very relieved in his heart. The prince was always lonely, and he was very grateful to Xia Rong for being so happy now.
After finishing their meal peacefully, the two went into the study hand in hand.
"Zhongqing wants to start a riot, but now there is a charter?" Xia Rong asked straight to the point.
Li Chengming nodded and unfolded a map. Xia Rong looked down, and the map was clearly marked. Now there are only two fiefdoms left in Shangliang Kingdom, namely the fiefdoms of King Huaiyin and King Liu.Huaiyin is located in the south of Shangliang State, and Zicheng is located in the east of Shangliang State. There is a special Licheng at the junction of the three.
Xia Rong looked up at Li Chengming and said, "Licheng is of great strategic significance. I heard that there was a King Yama in Licheng. I don't know who it is. , commanded properly, great things can be accomplished.”
Li Chengming was a little embarrassed when he heard the words, but he was speechless.
Xia Rong rolled his eyes, and said, "Although this King of Hell has a bad reputation, if he can be used by us, Zhongqing will naturally be like a tiger with wings."
How could Li Chengming not know that Xia Rong was testing himself, so he could only say: "I am that, that..."
Xia Rong saw that he looked really interesting, so she couldn't help laughing out loud, her eyes were slightly bent, glowing with water, as the saying goes, looking at a beautiful woman under the lamp, Li Chengming only thinks that the saying is sincere and does not deceive me.
Xia Rong's appearance is so handsome and unremarkable, usually he only smiles lightly, as elegant as a fairy, but at this moment, with the dim lights, his smile is blooming, his eyebrows are curved, and he has a special charm.Li Chengming's heart beat like a drum, and the blood in his whole body seemed to be boiling.He couldn't help lowering his head, wanting to kiss the eyes of the person in front of him.
"Zhongqing?"
Li Chengming came back to his senses, turned his head back in anxiety and embarrassment, and coughed dryly: "A Rong, Licheng is already under my control, and there are enough food and grass for soldiers, horses, horses, and grass. When do you think it is better to start the incident?"
Xia Rong asked, "Are there any suitable generals?"
Li Chengming said: "I want to lead the army myself."
Xia Rong smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll be with you."
Although Li Chengming was worried that swords and swords had no eyes on the battlefield, he was afraid of hurting Xia Rong, but thinking of Xia Rong's bloody feud, he naturally wanted to kill the enemy with his own hands.
"A Rong, on the battlefield, you have to be careful in everything, otherwise, you will stay with me all the time, and nothing will happen."
Seeing his worried eyes, Xia Rong felt warm, and said, "I know. I'll be fine, so don't worry. It's getting late, it's time to rest."
Although Li Chengming was reluctant to part with him, he still called Li Da and asked him to prepare hot water for Xia Rong to bathe, while he himself made Xia Rong's bed.
Xia Rong thought how lucky she would be if she could meet him in every world.
The next day, after breakfast, Li Chengming took Xia Rong straight to his secret military camp.Qin Er also led Han Zheng there.
Xia Rong looked at the winding mountains in front of him, and said, "Are you training soldiers in the mountains?"
Li Chengming nodded and said, "I'll take you there to get acquainted."
While walking, Xia Rong looked at the defenses in the mountains, and nodded inwardly, seeing that her lover's ability is quite strong.
Li Chengming secretly saw the approval in Xia Rong's eyes, and was very excited. It was not until he arrived at the barracks that he calmed down a little.
"My lord, why are you here?" A man in general uniform asked
The guard who delivered the money returned to the carriage and entered the city together with the carriage.
The guard saw that Xia Rong and Han Zheng had also entered the city, and then he showed a look of fear on his face, and muttered: "I don't know what this Lord Hades means..."
Although Licheng has a bad reputation, the city has a good appearance. There are many shops in the city, and the people on the street are all neatly dressed and calm. They are not as filthy and messy as Han Zheng imagined.
The two came to an inn called "Liren Inn". The waiter in the inn had a warm smile on his face and asked, "Are you two going to the top or staying in the inn?"
Han Zheng answered "staying in a hotel", but thought in his heart: This Licheng seems to be just a scary name.
The shop waiter said: "Okay! Guest officer, please!" After finishing speaking, he bowed and made a "please" gesture.
"Ah—" A sharp and short voice suddenly sounded, Han Zheng was startled, and looked behind him.
I saw a person lying there in the middle of the store, with blood slowly flowing out from under him, and a strong smell of blood rushed to his face, and on the seat next to him, a man with a gloomy face was gently wiping the blood on the knife, The others turned a blind eye and continued to laugh at Yanyan.
Han Zheng only felt chills in his heart. These people were still laughing one second, and they could kill wantonly in the next second. It seemed that Licheng really lived up to its name.I couldn't help but glanced at Xia Rong, and found that he was still smiling happily, walking upstairs with Xiao Er, and couldn't help but admire him.
Han Zheng didn't know that, in fact, the waiter and other people in the store were also looking at them from the corner of their eyes.One is in a plain robe with fluttering sleeves, and looks thin and frail, while the other is tall and mighty, but looks embarrassed. These two people are easy to bully, but they never expected them to see such a bloody thing. The scene was extremely calm and composed, and it seemed that it was not a good thing.
Everyone naturally stood still.
In a room on the second floor of the inn, a person stood in front of the window, seeing what happened downstairs, his eyes seemed to be fixed on the handsome and frail young man, and he smiled sinisterly.
Seeing this, the subordinates around him couldn't help but tremble, what terrible thing is this Lord Hades thinking?He was becoming more and more confused about what his master was thinking.When he was at the gate of the city before, he let himself give money to strangers for the first time, and now he is peeping at people here, and showing such a terrifying smile, he really can't understand.
Could it be, could it be that the master has taken a fancy to her beauty?Thinking of this, he couldn't help shaking. Just thinking about it made him feel like a sin.
"Qin Er, go and find out his identity."
"Yes, master!" Qin Er took the order and left.
Xia Rong sensitively sensed that someone was observing her, so she looked up upstairs, only to see that the window of a room was open, but there was no one behind.
Li Chengming hid behind the window and stroked his throbbing chest with his right hand. He couldn't help frowning, what's going on?From the moment I saw him outside the city, I seemed to be a different person. Emotions such as excitement, excitement, and joy that had nothing to do with him swarmed in. I didn't want to see him being made things difficult by the guards, so I sent him to Yin Zi, just now caused trouble downstairs, and I was afraid that he would be frightened, he had never felt this way before, and he didn't know what to do.
Thinking that he was almost discovered just now, he couldn't help but smile sinisterly.
Xia Rong and Han Zheng stayed at the Liren Inn, because they had little left on their bodies, they could only make do with one room.
After Li Chengming knew about it, his heart felt a little sour, and he sat alone in the room, in a daze for a long time.
"Master?" Hearing Qin Er's voice outside the door, Li Chengming told him to enter the room quickly.
Qin Er saw his master's dark and bright eyes staring at him closely, he couldn't help wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, and said: "Master, we have found it. This person's name is Xia Rong, and he is Xia Wei, the former general of the town. His son, three years ago, the general's mansion ransacked all the families, but he escaped by chance and became a guest of the Huaiyin Palace incognito. However, a few days ago, Xia Rong's identity was exposed and he left the Huaiyin Palace. Only then did he arrive at Li City, and now he is wanted by the court. hunt."
After Qin Er finished his narration, he was waiting for instructions from his master when he heard Li Chengming's cool voice: "You called Xia Rong too?"
Qin Er really wanted to kneel down to this master: Master, is there something wrong with your focus?
However, he still obediently admitted his mistake: "The subordinate offended, please punish the master."
Li Chengming tapped the table with his fingertips and asked, "Who is the person beside him?"
Qin Er said in his heart that it's lucky that the master didn't mention punishment.
"The man's name is Han Zheng. He is the son of Han Qing, General Xia's former lieutenant general. He also followed Mr. Xia after he left Huaiyin Palace."
"Ah."
Qin Er: What do you mean by "um"?
He waited for a while but still didn't hear his master's next instruction, so he mustered up the courage to look up at Li Chengming, only to find that his wise and mighty master was staring out the window in a daze...
"Master, if there is no order, this subordinate will leave first." Qin Er just wanted to get away from the obviously abnormal master today.
"Hold on."
Qin Er immediately cheered up and listened to Shangyin.
"Go..." Li Chengming paused, but still made up his mind: "Go and give him some silver taels."
Qin Er was stunned, is this really good?However, the master's order still had to be carried out, so he resignedly took some silver taels, went to the room where Xia Rong and Han Zheng lived, and knocked on the door.
Han Zheng opened the door and saw that it was a kind-hearted man who gave money at the gate of the city!He said: "Well, brother, thank you for your help outside the city just now. My son and I are very grateful, but we haven't raised any money yet, so we can't pay it back. Please leave your name, brother. In the future, we will definitely pay you back." Still on."
Qin Er was expressionless, and looked at the person who had talked for a long time with his eyes motionless, thinking: This person talks a lot!
"That's my master's order. You don't have to thank me, and you don't have to pay back the money. Besides," Qin Er said, he took out a purse from his arms and stuffed it into Han Zheng's hand, saying, "This is from my master." , and there is no need to pay back." After saying that, the figure flashed, and the person disappeared.
Han Zheng looked at the direction he was leaving, opened his mouth, but held back what he wanted to say.
He closed the door blankly, and said to Xia Rong who was standing in front of the window: "Who is this? Why do you give us money so many times? Holding this in my hand, I always feel uneasy."
Xia Rong looked away from the direction Qin Er left, stretched out her hand and said, "Bring me to see."
Han Zheng handed him the purse and said, "There are at least 200 taels in it. This man is really generous. Shall we return it?"
Xia Rong lightly touched the purse, the shape of the purse was not surprising, but it was made of this material, huh.
How come it feels so familiar when you can make such a big deal when you meet for the first time?Thinking of Shen Li from the previous world, Xia Rong's heart moved slightly.
Seeing that Xia Rong was just stroking the purse in thought, Han Zheng asked, "My lord, is there something wrong with this purse?"
Xia Rong shook her head, "No problem." After handing the purse back to him, she seemed to remember something, and said, "You don't need to return it, you take this money and go to the shopkeeper to open another room."
Han Zheng thought about it, and felt that it was not good for the two of them to share a room. After all, the young master was born in a noble family, and since he was a child, he was well-clothed and well-fed, so he didn't want to share a bed with others, so he said: "Then I will choose a room that is close to the young master. Room." After saying that, he went out and went downstairs.
After Qin Er informed Li Chengming of the news, the sourness in Li Chengming's heart gradually disappeared.
After Han Zheng went downstairs, he found that the corpses and blood in the store had been disposed of, and he couldn't help but feel worried.Before, I saw that the waiter in the shop was no different from the ones outside, but now I am surprised that this small inn has such ability, and this Licheng really has no law at all, only powerful power judges life and death.
"Guest officer, do you need anything?" Seeing Han Zheng, the waiter hurriedly smiled and asked.
Seeing his smile, Han Zheng felt a little uncomfortable, so he said, "Open us another upper room, the one closest to the previous one."
The shop waiter looked at the silver in his hand, and immediately beamed with joy, "Okay, wait a moment, sir." After saying that, he ran to the shopkeeper with the silver.
Han Zhengzheng felt a little strange, when suddenly there was a sound of wind behind his ears, he suddenly turned sideways, and saw a throwing knife in front of him nailed to the handrail of the stairs on his left.If he couldn't dodge in time, wouldn't he be killed by the knife?Thinking about it, he turned and glared.
Not far away, a man was playing with a throwing knife in his hand, looking at him maliciously, and said: "The skill is pretty good, but if you don't want to die, just put down all the money on your body, and I will let you live."
Han Zheng clenched his fists and said in a deep voice, "You don't have that qualification."
The man's hand stopped moving, and he snorted, and the three throwing knives pierced Han Zheng's three vitals in a tricky way.
The man saw him dodging again, his face was extremely ugly, and in an instant, six throwing knives came out, approaching Han Zheng, blocking his avoiding direction, Han Zheng was terrified, closed his eyes and waited to die, but listened to the man There was a scream, and then the sound of something heavy falling to the ground.
When he opened his eyes, he saw that the flying knife man had fallen into a pool of blood, with a total of six knives pierced into his body.
The inn was silent.
"Those who want to kill me must have the awareness of death." Han Zheng heard Xia Rong say this.
I thought he was a frail scholar, but he didn't expect to be a hidden master. The people in the inn who were ready to move before were all shocked.
Without any movement, the flying knife returned back the same way strangely, what kind of martial arts is this?When did such a master come out?
That man clearly had a wide-sleeved gown and was cold like a fairy, but he was also a ruthless person who killed people without blinking an eye. Now, no one in the inn dared to find fault with him anymore.
The waiter in the shop also came back to his senses in an instant, and came to Xia Rong with the silver in his hands, with a look of awe, and said: "It's a villain who has eyes but doesn't know Mount Tai. It's an honor for the small shop to have this young master staying here. How can I accept him?" Your money? Please accept it, my lord."
Xia Rong's brows were indifferent, and she only said: "Business is a matter of course, I stay in the shop, you collect money, there is no need to do so."
The shop waiter also knew that the person in front of him didn't care about the yellow and white thing, so he thanked him with a wink and stepped back.
Li Chengming originally wanted to send someone down to help, but he didn't expect that Xia Rong possessed peerless martial arts. He thought about it and thought it should be so, this person is so outstanding.
Qin Er also watched the whole scene, and was also shocked by Xia Rong's martial strength. He never expected Xia Rong's martial arts to be so advanced. It seemed that his intelligence had made a mistake, and he looked at his master with some trepidation in his heart.
But there seemed to be a slight smile on the corner of his master's mouth?He rubbed his eyes involuntarily, and felt relieved when he found that the master still looked so gloomy.Just say, when will his master smile?It's even more unbelievable than the emperor dying in the next second.
"Qin Er, go and find out, where is he going?"
Hearing his master's voice, he immediately perked up his ears, and immediately rolled down to do business.
☆, son of the general 3
Beijing.
The emperor Li Chengjing was happily playing with the beauties on the dragon couch, when the chief executive Jin Fu tremblingly said respectfully outside the hall: "Your Majesty, Your Highness the Eldest Princess is asking to see you outside the hall."
Li Chengjing stopped touching the beauty's slender waist, squinted his eyes, and said in a deep voice, "Just say that I want to go to bed and let her go back..."
"Your Majesty, I have been waiting for a long time." The Eldest Princess was dressed in plain clothes outside the door, her tone was cold.
Li Chengjing felt a little irritable, pushed the beauty, said: "You step back first." Then he said to the outside, "Sister Huang, come in."
The eldest princess didn't look sideways, and walked into the hall majesticly, smelling the beautiful fragrance in the hall, disgusted in her heart, without looking at Li Chengjing, sat down directly, and said: "I heard that the emperor wanted Xia Rong, the son of General Xia, all over the country?"
Li Chengjing drank a cup of tea leisurely, Fang said: "You want to take care of it?"
The eldest princess suddenly sneered, and said: "I can't control it if I want to, but your majesty, you can't kill Xia Rong no matter what."
Li Chengjing sneered, "What? That's because your beloved man had sex with other women, and you can't bear it?"
The eldest princess jumped up, "Li Chengjing! Back then, you disregarded the feelings of brothers, and the righteousness of the monarch and ministers destroyed the entire family of the general's house! How can you still laugh now? Your conscience has been eaten by dogs?"
Li Chengjing's eyes changed, and he looked at the eldest princess with a viper-like gaze, and said, "Li Chengjin, if you weren't the elder sister of my mother's compatriots, do you think I would keep you until today?"
Li Chengjin laughed, "Li Chengjing, I have lived in hiding for three years. I didn't expect you to become so vicious. Heh, who cried bitterly in front of me three years ago, begging me to forgive you? Can you sit on your dragon chair? When I went to the battlefield, you didn't know where you were crying!"
Li Chengjing hates others to bring up his cowardice. He is the emperor and the Ninth Five-Year Supreme. Everyone in the world has to listen to him. Those who dare to disobey him usually end badly. For example, Xia Wei.
Now Li Chengjin pointed at him and scolded him, he didn't want to live anymore!
"Li Chengjin, don't rely on your identity to run amok. What you have, I can give you, and naturally I can take it back. Don't try to anger me. You know the consequences. Even if you are my elder sister, No exception!"
Li Chengjin looked at the emperor's cold eyes, and his heart gradually became barren.Once upon a time, the younger brother who needed her protection turned into the cold-blooded and cruel appearance he is now?His dragon chair was earned by himself and Xia Wei through hard work and hardships, but he didn't miss any of his old love.She should have figured it out, she should have figured it out the day Xia Wei died, she didn't know her brother at all.
"Your Majesty, do you believe in the cycle of karma?" the Eldest Princess asked in an erratic tone.
Li Chengjing sneered, "Of course I believe it, don't you see? Those who bullied me before have already returned them ten times and a hundred times."
"So, you didn't earn this throne yourself. It's hard to say whether you can sit still. I'm waiting for that day." After Li Chengjin said, he didn't want to look at him any more, and turned around and left, with his long skirt on the ground together One volt seems to indicate the change of the country and the country.
Li Chengjing suddenly felt uneasy.
"Jin Fu!" He called out the door, his voice changed a little.
Jin Fu quickly rolled in, bowed his head and said, "What orders does Your Majesty have?"
Li Chengjing paused, regained his composure, and asked, "Why is there no news about the person I sent to assassinate Xia Rong?"
Jin Fu respectfully replied: "Your Majesty, the capital city is far away from the city, maybe they haven't arrived yet, Your Majesty might as well wait patiently..."
Li Chengjing stretched out his hand and threw the cup angrily, "Wait! Wait! Wait! You trash! Why is it so difficult to kill someone? You go and send more people, and you must kill him!"
Jin Fu took the order and left.
At this time, a little eunuch outside the hall tremblingly came in to clean up the broken pieces of porcelain on the ground. Li Chengjing was feeling depressed. Seeing the little eunuch's shrinking look, he felt malicious in his heart, and said, "You! Give me all the broken pieces on the ground. have eaten!"
Hearing this, the little eunuch knelt down on the ground, trembling all over, begging for mercy miserably: "Your Majesty, please forgive me! Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"
"I just let you eat them, but didn't let you die, what kind of life should I spare?" Li Chengjing said with a sinister smile.He just likes to see people wagging their tails and begging for mercy in front of him.
The little eunuch still begged.
Li Chengjing became impatient, and said to the outside of the hall: "Come here!"
Immediately two eunuchs came in.
Li Chengjing pointed to the little eunuch on the ground and said: "You let him swallow the things on the ground, otherwise, you will eat for him."
The two eunuchs naturally did not dare to disobey the perverted emperor, so they could only press down on the eunuch on the ground and stuff the porcelain piece directly into his mouth.The little eunuch wailed in pain, but later his throat was cut and he couldn't even cry out, a lot of blood flowed out of his mouth, and he died.When he died, his eyes were fixed on Li Chengjing, full of deep-seated hatred.
Li Chengjing waved his hand, "Go and deal with it!"
The two eunuchs dragged the corpse and retreated respectfully, so Li Chengjing didn't see the fear and deep hatred in their eyes.
Since Han Zheng was almost killed, Xia Rong began to teach him martial arts, and Han Zheng was naturally very happy.The two stayed in Licheng for several days and heard a lot of news.
"Young master, tell me, who is this King of Hell? Most people in Licheng are afraid of him, but they don't know his true face." Han Zheng asked while eating.
Xia Rong put down the bowls and chopsticks, wiped the corners of her mouth, and said, "I don't know, but you should be careful these days, I've noticed that someone is spying on us."
"What?" Han Zheng was so surprised that he stopped eating, and asked, "Do you know who it is, my lord?"
Xia Rong shook her head, "I only know more than one group of people. However, there should be people from the emperor among them."
Han Zheng suddenly became solemn, and said, "They are not looking for a chance to attack, are they?"
Xia Rong nodded and said, "Once we leave Licheng, we will definitely be ambushed."
Han Zheng asked, "Then what is your plan?"
Xia Rong said calmly: "We will continue on our way, don't worry about those monsters."
Han Zheng didn't worry anymore when he thought of Xia Rong's force value.
After packing up their luggage, the two of them prepared to depart from Licheng to Zicheng.
Seeing that the big Buddha was about to leave, the waiter in the shop immediately stepped forward and said, "My lord, are you leaving Licheng?"
Seeing the obsequiousness of the little girl, Han Zheng's teeth were a little sour, and he said, "That's true." Xia Rong glanced at a certain place on the second floor.
Li Chengming leaned his back against the wall, thinking of Xia Rong's gaze just now, he felt his chest throbbing violently, which couldn't be calmed down, so he called Qin Er and said, "Arrange to go back immediately."
Qin Er sighed inwardly: After this master knew that Mr. Xia was going to Zicheng, he was so excited that he didn't fall asleep all night. This Mr. Xia is really the master's nemesis.
After Xia Rong and Han Zheng left Licheng, they found a few small tails behind them.
There are several mountains between Licheng and Zicheng, so you need to take a detour.Han Zheng originally thought that the imperial court in a place like Licheng would definitely not be willing to build official roads, and the roads should be difficult to walk, but he never expected that the roads here are very flat and wide.
Han Zheng asked after thinking about it.
Xia Rong said: "This road leads to Zicheng, who do you think built it?"
"Could it be King Liu?" Han Zheng asked in surprise.
Xia Rong nodded, "King Liu is not the emperor's brother, but he can live to this day, which shows that he is not an ordinary person. He built roads because he must have close contacts with Licheng, and Licheng's geographical location happens to be a strategic location. You What do you think, King Liu is planning?"
Han Zheng is not a stupid person, he was restrained by his own stereotypes before, but now after listening to Xia Rong's analysis, he felt suddenly enlightened, and he became a little more serious about King Liu in his heart.
"Here we come." Xia Rong suddenly said.
Han Zheng's expression froze, his eyes paying attention to the movement around him.
An arrow flashed across the air, and then, countless arrows came from the dense forest on both sides of the road. Han Zheng felt that he was enveloped in the arrow net, and it was impossible to escape, but he also picked up the arrow in his hand. Jian wanted to take a fight, but was dumbfounded the next second.
I saw Xia Rong spread his hands out, and the leaves all over the ground instantly surrounded the two of them, forming an unbreakable sphere, no matter how many arrows there were, they couldn't shake it at all.
The other two groups of people following Xia Rong seemed to have seen a miracle.
Qin Er looked at his master's face from distorted to furious to shocked to obsessed, and spontaneously analyzed in his heart: The person I have a crush on has been attacked!Which grandson doesn't want to live anymore, who dares to touch Lao Tzu?The martial arts of the person I like is so unfathomable?He is so wonderful!
"Master, the people we sent out to protect Mr. Xia..."
"Let them continue." Li Chengming said without thinking.
Qin Er: Master, are you addicted to voyeurism?
The people watching the bustle outside have far less intense senses than those in the center of the storm.Han Zheng was completely surrounded by fragile leaves. He could only smell the fragrance of the leaves, and he could only see the blue and yellow intertwined leaves protecting him airtightly. As their leaves exploded all of a sudden, countless screams came from the dense forest, and the air was gradually filled with a strong and disgusting bloody smell. With one move, corpses littered the field.
Han Zheng and the bystanders deeply admired him.
Even though he killed so many people in an instant, Xia Rong still looked indifferent. He was not like a demon who kills without batting an eye, but a god overlooking all living beings.
Li Chengming only felt that the blood in his whole body was boiling and clamoring, he couldn't wait to get close to this person, wanted to have this person alone and completely, no, this was his god.
"Qin Er."
Qin Er came to his senses, but his eyes were still a little dull.
"What's your master's order?"
"It's a long way to Zicheng, please come up and sit down, Mr. Xia." Li Chengming's voice was clearly full of excitement.
Qin Er: Are you talking nonsense with your eyes open?Where is it far?
However, he could only slander and go heroically with Li Chengming's instructions.
Before Han Zheng had time to express his admiration to Xia Rong, he saw the guard who had borrowed two taels of silver walking towards them.
"Master Xia, my master said that it's a long way to Zicheng, please get on the carriage and take a rest." Qin Er said expressionlessly.
Xia Rong looked at the carriage not far away, raised her eyebrows slightly, and said, "Thank you for your kindness, master, but it's only a few miles away, and we'll arrive in no time."
Qin Er cried in his heart: Mr. Xia, you have always refused to agree. The master is angry, but I am unlucky.
"However," Xia Rong smiled, "I spent some energy just now, but now I'm a little tired. It's better to take a ride in the carriage."
Qin Er instantly saw redemption.
☆, son of the general 4
Ever since Xia Rong got on the carriage, Li Chengming has been in an uncomfortable state.
"Young Master has helped me many times, and Xia Rong is very grateful." Xia Rong and Li Chengming sat facing each other, and said with a smile, "May I ask you your surname?"
Li Chengming has always been ruthless, and there are only two types of people: those who are useful and those who deserve to die.But as soon as he saw Xia Rong, his heart beat faster, his mind was confused, and he was at a loss.At this moment, I saw this person sitting across from me, only less than a foot away, his every move seemed to be able to arouse my heartbeat, only the heartbeat was beating like a drum in my ear, and I couldn't hear what he was saying at all.
Xia Rong met the handsome man with cold brows who was staring at him blankly, feeling amused in his heart, so he could only ask, "Your surname?"
Li Chengming suddenly came back to his senses, only feeling the heat in his ears, nana replied: "My surname is Li."
Xia Rong's heart moved: the surname is Li, and the status is so valuable, so there is no one else except Liu Wang.
"Xia Rong has met King Liu."
Li Chengming was startled suddenly, and then he felt a kind of pride spontaneously, the person he was looking for was so wise.
"Young Master Xia, you don't need to be too polite, just treat me as a normal friend."
Qin Er outside the car: Where did that vicious King Liu go?
Han Zheng outside the car: It turned out to be Liu Wang, who has helped them so many times, what a fate!
Xia Rong said with a smile: "Courtesy cannot be dismissed, the lord has a noble status, I am just a wanted criminal, how can I be compared with the lord? To tell the truth, I came here to join the lord, I wonder if the lord can give me a meal?"
Seeing his posture so low, Li Chengming felt a little depressed, and said: "I am short of talents, Mr. Xia has unique skills, is smart and wise, it is my luck to help me!" After speaking, he felt warm all over his body , The gloominess between the brows also gradually disappeared.
Xia Rong noticed with sharp eyes that Li Chengming's ears were slightly red, and she couldn't help but think of Shen Li in the previous world, and his ears were prone to redness when his mood was agitated.
"My lord is too flattering."
Hearing that the one on the left was on the bottom and the one on the right was on the bottom, Li Chengming felt really annoyed, so he said: "A Rong doesn't have to be so different, my name is Zhongqing, you can just call me Zhongqing."
Xia Rong was stunned for a moment, this person's style was really similar to Shen Li's.Thinking that the person in front of him might be his lover, Xia Rong stretched his eyebrows and said bluntly: "Zhongqing, you can call me Zicheng."
Li Chengming was instantly elated. He chewed on "Zicheng" repeatedly, only to feel that although the expression somewhat matched his own, it was not as friendly as Arong, so he said, "Zicheng is good, but I'll call you Arong. .”
Xia Rong saw his happy appearance, and heard that he insisted on calling him "A Rong", and couldn't help thinking of the way Shen Li often called him "Xiao Rong" in his ear, with a hint of nostalgia in his expression.
It was dusk when the carriage arrived at Prince Liu's Mansion.
The butler, Li Da, was already waiting in front of the door. When he saw the carriage parked in front of the palace, he rushed forward to greet him and said, "Welcome the prince back to the palace!"
Han Zheng thought to himself: The housekeeper has no abnormal expression when he sees his face, which shows that this Liuwang's mansion is really extraordinary.
Without thinking about it, Li Chengming got off the car ahead of Xia Rong, then naturally stretched out his hand and said, "A Rong, be careful when getting out of the car, I will support you."
This move of his really stunned all the servants of the palace, and they couldn't help guessing, could there be someone more noble in this carriage?
Only the corners of Qin Er's mouth twitched: Master, do you have to be so obvious with your idiot face?
Xia Rong really couldn't bear Li Chengming's attention, so she got off the carriage and said politely, "Thank you Zhongqing for your kindness, but I'm not a weak person, Zhongqing doesn't have to be so careful."
After hearing this, Li Chengming put down his hand a little aggrieved.
The steward and the servants behind him have been petrified.
Li Chengming led Xia Rong into the mansion, and asked Li Da: "Is the meal ready?"
Li Da regained his sanity, and said respectfully: "Go back to the prince, it's ready, the old slave will let the dining room serve the food."
"Wait." Li Chengming said suddenly.
Li Dali stood where he was, waiting to be dispatched.
Li Chengming thought for a while and said, "Let the dining room prepare a chicken shoot porridge, hibiscus eggs, and plum blossom buns immediately, the sooner the better!"
Li Da withdrew immediately and ordered the dining room.
Xia Rong's heart felt as if the river was overwhelmed. He stared at Li Chengming blankly, and there seemed to be a thousand words in his eyes.
When Li Chengming saw him like this, he remembered what stupid thing he had done, and quickly explained: "Ah Rong, I didn't know what happened just now, I just thought you like to eat these for dinner, don't mind if I'm wrong, I I ordered the dining room to do it again."
Seeing his bewildered look, Xia Rong smiled slightly and said, "Zhongqing is right, I really like these." He and Shen Li have lived together for decades, and the two of them are very clear about each other's preferences. If Li Chengming wasn't Shen Li, how could he be so familiar with him?
Seeing that he spoke sincerely, Li Chengming was overjoyed. He couldn't help but grabbed Xia Rong's wrist and said, "The dining room will be ready in a while. I'll take you to pick the yard first."
Seeing that Han Zheng wanted to follow, Qin Er grabbed him in time and said, "Follow me, and I will guide you to choose a yard."
Han Zheng said: "I don't have to choose, I just live next door to the young master."
Qin Er rolled his eyes in his heart, but said: "Master Xia naturally wants to stay close to Master, you live with us."
Han Zheng also knew that this was someone else's house, so he naturally wanted to obey the master's rules, so he stopped demanding, and just said: "Then please trouble brother, by the way, I don't know your name. I'm going to Han Zheng."
Qin Er was expressionless, and said as he walked: "Don't dare to be the one, just call me Qin Er."
Han Zheng let out an "oh".
Li Chengming brought Xia Rong happily to the courtyard where he lived, and asked, "How is this courtyard?"
Xia Rong looked around, nodded, and praised: "The layout is exquisite, spacious and bright, not bad."
The smile on the corner of Li Chengming's mouth could not be stopped, and he completely lost his usual sinister look. He said: "A Rong, you also know that I want to make trouble. Now that you are here to help me, we naturally discuss matters from time to time. How about , you live next door to me, which is more convenient, how about it?"
Four words popped up in Xia Rong's mind: Fake public affairs for personal gain!
Seeing the man's awkward and awkward look, he said softly, "That's fine."
Only then did Li Chengming drag him to have dinner contentedly.
Originally, Li Chengming was the only one who stayed in the palace. Every time he ate alone, the housekeeper helped prepare the dishes, but tonight was different.
Li Da watched his lord pull that young master to sit directly next to him, and kept serving porridge and vegetables for that young master graciously. He felt that he was abandoned in an instant. It was really embarrassing to stand here... However, in his heart There is also a care, and I plan to beat the servants of the whole house later, so don't neglect Mr. Xia.
Xia Rong watched Li Chengming amusedly letting herself eat, so she put a piece of steamed fish in his bowl and said, "You can eat it too."
Li Chengming looked at the fish in the bowl, the smile on his brows could hardly be hidden, it softened the hostility between his brows, and his whole person became gentle.He picked up the fish in the bowl and tasted it slowly mouthful by mouthful.
Although Li Da felt that he was about to be blinded by the prince's sweetness, he was very relieved in his heart. The prince was always lonely, and he was very grateful to Xia Rong for being so happy now.
After finishing their meal peacefully, the two went into the study hand in hand.
"Zhongqing wants to start a riot, but now there is a charter?" Xia Rong asked straight to the point.
Li Chengming nodded and unfolded a map. Xia Rong looked down, and the map was clearly marked. Now there are only two fiefdoms left in Shangliang Kingdom, namely the fiefdoms of King Huaiyin and King Liu.Huaiyin is located in the south of Shangliang State, and Zicheng is located in the east of Shangliang State. There is a special Licheng at the junction of the three.
Xia Rong looked up at Li Chengming and said, "Licheng is of great strategic significance. I heard that there was a King Yama in Licheng. I don't know who it is. , commanded properly, great things can be accomplished.”
Li Chengming was a little embarrassed when he heard the words, but he was speechless.
Xia Rong rolled his eyes, and said, "Although this King of Hell has a bad reputation, if he can be used by us, Zhongqing will naturally be like a tiger with wings."
How could Li Chengming not know that Xia Rong was testing himself, so he could only say: "I am that, that..."
Xia Rong saw that he looked really interesting, so she couldn't help laughing out loud, her eyes were slightly bent, glowing with water, as the saying goes, looking at a beautiful woman under the lamp, Li Chengming only thinks that the saying is sincere and does not deceive me.
Xia Rong's appearance is so handsome and unremarkable, usually he only smiles lightly, as elegant as a fairy, but at this moment, with the dim lights, his smile is blooming, his eyebrows are curved, and he has a special charm.Li Chengming's heart beat like a drum, and the blood in his whole body seemed to be boiling.He couldn't help lowering his head, wanting to kiss the eyes of the person in front of him.
"Zhongqing?"
Li Chengming came back to his senses, turned his head back in anxiety and embarrassment, and coughed dryly: "A Rong, Licheng is already under my control, and there are enough food and grass for soldiers, horses, horses, and grass. When do you think it is better to start the incident?"
Xia Rong asked, "Are there any suitable generals?"
Li Chengming said: "I want to lead the army myself."
Xia Rong smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll be with you."
Although Li Chengming was worried that swords and swords had no eyes on the battlefield, he was afraid of hurting Xia Rong, but thinking of Xia Rong's bloody feud, he naturally wanted to kill the enemy with his own hands.
"A Rong, on the battlefield, you have to be careful in everything, otherwise, you will stay with me all the time, and nothing will happen."
Seeing his worried eyes, Xia Rong felt warm, and said, "I know. I'll be fine, so don't worry. It's getting late, it's time to rest."
Although Li Chengming was reluctant to part with him, he still called Li Da and asked him to prepare hot water for Xia Rong to bathe, while he himself made Xia Rong's bed.
Xia Rong thought how lucky she would be if she could meet him in every world.
The next day, after breakfast, Li Chengming took Xia Rong straight to his secret military camp.Qin Er also led Han Zheng there.
Xia Rong looked at the winding mountains in front of him, and said, "Are you training soldiers in the mountains?"
Li Chengming nodded and said, "I'll take you there to get acquainted."
While walking, Xia Rong looked at the defenses in the mountains, and nodded inwardly, seeing that her lover's ability is quite strong.
Li Chengming secretly saw the approval in Xia Rong's eyes, and was very excited. It was not until he arrived at the barracks that he calmed down a little.
"My lord, why are you here?" A man in general uniform asked
