There is a private house outside the small gate on the west side of the imperial palace in the Southern Kingdom. Xiao Chuqian and Ling Qiyou did not go far after they came out of the palace. They hid in a small two-story building not far from the palace gate. Direction of people and vehicles entering and exiting.

It was only dawn, the palace gate had just opened, and there were still few people. Ling Qiyou leaned against the window holding hot tea, staring at the direction of the palace gate for a moment, Xiao Chuqian came up from behind him, hugging him in his arms He whispered in his ear: "Your body is not fully healed yet, go to sleep first, I'll just keep an eye on it."

Not only is his health not good, but he also soaked in the cold water for so long and didn't rest well, Xiao Chuqian was really afraid that he would not be able to hold on.

Ling Qiyou shook his head: "We can't stay here for long, once Yuwen Minhao finds out that we are gone, he will definitely search from house to house, there is no way to hide here... and I can't sleep because I didn't see Xiao Mantou."

Xiao Chuqian turned his head and kissed his bloodless lips, and did not persuade him anymore.

Two quarters of an hour later, a little eunuch came out pushing a cart for carrying slops. In addition to two large buckets, there were also many scattered pots and pots piled up on the small cart. Ling Qiyou's pupils shrank slightly, and he bumped into Xiao Chuqian. arm: "Over there."

Xiao Chuqian fixed his eyes and saw that there was indeed a food box in the corner of the piles of sundries, and his hand was wrapped with red silk, which was specially made by Shen Lexin as a symbol.

The guards guarding the palace gate didn't even check, they just glanced at him and let him out of the palace.

Xiao Chuqian left a sentence for Ling Qiyou, "Wait here for me" and quickly chased him out.

There were only two eunuchs pushing the cart. Xiao Chuqian followed them and walked two streets. There were very few people on the street early in the morning. The box was opened, and the sleeping bun was indeed inside. The medicine Shen Lexin gave him was enough for him to sleep for a whole day, so he quickly went back to Ling Qiyou's hiding place with him in his arms.

Hearing the sound of the door being pushed open, Ling Qiyou jumped on it immediately, hugged the little mantou and let out a long sigh of relief, Xiao Chuqian closed the door and reminded him: "Let's go quickly, the city gate has been opened, hurry out of the city. "

Ling Qiyou looked down at the little steamed bun in his arms, hesitantly said: "I'm worried about Lexin..."

Although Shen Lexin kept saying that he was fine, but in Ling Qiyou's eyes, he wanted to kill the emperor of the Southern Kingdom by himself in the Southern Kingdom Palace.

"Why don't you take the little mantou and go first, and I'll go back to the palace to have a look."

Ling Qiyou's eyes widened suddenly, Xiao Chuqian leaned over and kissed his lips again: "Don't worry, I will find a way to protect myself."

In any case, the three of them were rescued by Shen Lexin, and Ling Qiyou was worried about letting him stay here alone to settle accounts with Yuwen Minhao, and Xiao Chuqian also felt that he was not so at ease.

With shining eyes, Ling Qiyou quietly looked at Xiao Chuqian in front of him, and after a while, he also leaned over and kissed him back, whispering on his lips, "I'll be waiting for you in the temple outside the city that I'm happy to talk about." .”

"it is good."

******

So Xiao Chuqian sneaked back into the palace that he escaped from again. As Shen Lexin said, he is not familiar with the Southern Palace, but this is not a big deal. He hid in a place, and then found an opportunity to deal with a palace guard, put on the other's clean clothes, then swayed out, lowered his head and walked carefully along the path in the palace a few times, he always had a good sense of direction , And that day when Yuwen Minhao saw them, he was escorted by the guards and knew where Yuwen Minhao's bedroom was, so he searched for it based on his memory, and soon found the right location.

Since Shen Lexin said that he wanted to settle accounts with Yuwen Minhao, he would definitely come to this place, otherwise Xiao Chuqian in the huge palace would not know where to go to find him.

It was just dawn at this time, he came at the right time, just in time for the change of guards in two shifts, in order to prevent conspiracy to rebel, most of these guards did not know each other, Xiao Chuqian followed calmly, no one noticed Something went wrong, and he got in with the newly recruited guards smoothly.

And in the sleeping hall, a confrontation is going on right now.

The sword in Shen Lexin's hand rested on Yuwen Minhao's neck, and she looked coldly at the man whose life was hanging by a thread in front of him and seemed not to care about it at all, and his eyes lingered wantonly on his face.

Half an hour ago, he sent the little mantou out of the palace and came to throw himself into a trap. As expected, Yuwen Minhao asked someone to bring him in, and he also made everyone inside and outside the dormitory retreat according to his request. Shen Lexin didn't agree with him. He was talking nonsense, and asked him straight to the point if Yuwen Minxu and his adoptive father's family were killed by him. Yuwen Minhao simply nodded and admitted, and asked him: "Otherwise, how do you think I can stand in this place today and meet with you?" say something?"

It's no different than when he wanted to assassinate Ling Qiyou, he still had many entanglements and concerns. Now facing the arrogant Yuwen Minhao in front of him, Shen Lexin can only be filled with overwhelming anger. Since he came, he just stabbed this person to death with a sword. , so he really did so, and he drew his sword and stabbed directly at the opponent.

Shen Lexin has full confidence in his swordsmanship. Even if the opponent is taller and taller than him, he may not lose in a single fight. As long as he is dealt with before those people rush in, he will be happy in his heart. Only this one thought, to kill the person in front of him, he must be killed, the sword swung faster and faster, and soon his eyes were red.

But Yuwen Minhao just dodges and does not fight back, he swayed around in the small bedroom like a joke, until finally Shen Lexin's sword fell across his neck, with a smile still on the corner of his mouth.

"If you really move your hands, you will definitely not be able to get out of this bedroom." Yuwen Minhao looked at him calmly, and didn't care about the sword at the lifeline.

"I'm not afraid of death, it's enough to kill you." As Shen Lexin said, the sword moved a little further, and the opponent's neck was already bloodstained.

"As long as you are willing to part with your uncle of the Dasheng Dynasty," Yuwen Minhao said, "I have missed you for so many years, and I would be extremely happy to die with you..."

Shen Lexin's eyes became a little colder, but because he mentioned that Ling Jing's hand holding the sword really loosened a bit.

Yuwen Minhao looked at his reaction, and smiled with a bit of sarcasm: "That King Xuan of the Dasheng Dynasty is so good? Is it worth you to stay by his side as a male favorite? I am also you My uncle is still the lord of a country, if you are with me, I can make you the rightful queen of the southern country, back then..."

"Despicable and dirty!"

Shen Lexin interrupted him loudly, no longer hesitated to swing his sword and swept across, but this time Yuwen Minhao reacted very quickly, he turned around and avoided it, Shen Lexin wanted to follow up and stab again, but his body suddenly softened, Immediately unable to exert any strength at all, he angrily raised his head and glared at the person in front of him.

Yuwen Minhao kindly explained to him: "There are many people who want to kill me. In order to protect myself, I have been burning spices that make people's bodies weak all the year round in my bedroom. I and the attendants around me have used the antidote so it's fine. As for you……"

He smiled and didn't say any more.

That's why he wasn't worried at all about Shen Lexin coming alone with the sword, and even asked all his people to retreat outside according to his request.

Until he was hugged to bed and his clothes were ripped off, Shen Lexin almost bit off his tongue. Although his body didn't exert much strength, but because he took various detoxifying herbs all year round, he was still more resistant to this fragrance than ordinary people. It was much stronger, the bitten lips and tongue made the smell of blood spread in the mouth.

He forced himself to swallow the saliva mixed with his own blood, and finally regained some strength in his hands. When Yuwen Minhao tried to violate him, he stretched out his hand and scratched randomly. He didn't know what he caught by the pillow beside the bed. With all his remaining strength, he knocked on the back of Yuwen Minhao's head.

Pushing people away, stumbled off the bed, picked up his own sword that fell on the ground, cut his hands and arms hard, and sucked his own blood. He knew what medicine Yuwen Minhao was using, so he could only swallow his own blood. The blood can be relieved.

Yuwen Minhao was smashed to the ground by him, completely angry, his beast nature was provoked, and he rushed directly towards the person who fell on the ground, Shen Lexin rolled over to avoid it, even though his strength had returned, he At this time, it is still difficult to be Yuwen Minhao's opponent, but even if he gave his life here today, he will die with the beast in front of him.

At the critical moment, the pupils of Yuwen Minhao's eyes suddenly dilated, and Shen Lexin looked in surprise at the man who was fighting with him just now, but suddenly his chest was pierced by a sword, blood sprayed out, and his body fell down suddenly. Turning his head abruptly, the person standing behind him was Xiao Chuqian. Behind him, the window was opened halfway at some point, and it was from there that he came in through the window.

"Let's go quickly, the guards outside are going to find out."

There was no time to explain too much to him, so Xiao Chuqian stepped forward to help him up: "Leave here first."

Shen Lexin sucked two more mouthfuls of her own blood, turned her head to look at the thing that fell to the ground that he just used to hit Yuwen Minhao's head, and motioned Xiao Chuqian to pick it up.

"What's this?"

"The Jade Seal of the Southern Kingdom."

With the carriage arranged by Shen Lexin and a trustworthy servant, Ling Qiyou took the steamed buns out of the city almost as soon as the city gate opened, and arrived at the ruined temple hidden in the forest outside the north of the city before noon.

The child that Shen Lexin asked him to take care of was hiding here. Ling Qiyou looked at the child in front of him whose face was covered in black mud like a little beggar, and frowned slightly. After hesitating for a while about what I had explained to you, I asked him first, "Are you the one Brother Luo said...the one who will take me out of here?"

Brother Luo?Ling Qiyou thought for a while before he remembered that Shen Lexin had indeed mentioned that his name in the southern country was Yu Wenluo.

Nodding his head, Ling Qiyou asked him: "Who are you?"

Yu Wenhong bit his lip, not telling the truth: "Brother Luo's cousin."

Hearing what he said, Ling Qiyou only regarded him as a child of Shen Lexin's adoptive father's family. Since Shen Lexin entrusted him to take care of him, he didn't ask too much, just said: "Would you like to wash your face and change your body to be clean?" clothes?"

Yu Wenhong quickly shook his head: "I don't want it anymore, so be it."

Ling Qiyou thought that the whole family of this child had been killed, and it was probably because of this dirty appearance that he could disguise himself, so he didn't persuade him: "Let's wait here until your elder brother Luo comes. leave."

The child nodded obediently, and moved his eyes to the little mantou in his arms. The little mantou had woken up now, but because of the aftereffect of the medicine Shen Lexin gave him, he was still drowsy, his eyes opened and closed, Ling Qi You hugged him and sat down on the haystack beside him, and fed him water. Yu Wenhong leaned over hesitantly, and asked Ling Qiyou curiously: "What's his name? He looks so cute."

Ling Qiyou smiled and said, "Little Mantou."

"what……"

Yu Wenxuan obviously didn't expect someone to name him like that. He stretched out his hand to touch Xiao Mantou's face, then he raised his hand, remembering how dirty he was all over, so he could only hang down in dismay.

The little mantou's eyes turned to him, as if he was curious, so he didn't move. After a while, to Ling Qiyou's surprise, for the first time in so many days, the little thing who had been surprised opened his mouth ,Laughed.
