feud

Early the next morning, the doctor was called to Qi Mansion as a guest with a medicine box.

Wang Bing numbly held the spoon in his mouth and swallowed it numbly. After the bitter soup was finished, he let his throat loose. Wang Bing didn't frown as if he was used to it.

A candied fruit was stuffed into the mouth irresistibly and gently, the bitterness was neutralized a lot, Wang Bing smiled and said thank you.

When he was young, he was in poor health. Wang Fu said it was a disease brought from his mother's womb. He could lie down for a month when he was infected with a small cold, and he had to work with soup and medicine all year round. Wang Fu bought candied fruit to coax him. When he became sensible, although the medicine was not broken, the candied fruit was gone.He thought he was used to the bitter taste, but it turned out he wasn't, he just hadn't tasted sweet for too long.

Cen Li saw that his face was reddish due to body heat, and became bulging with chewing movements. He swallowed his saliva inexplicably, and went out with the bowl in embarrassment.

The door was pushed open again, Wang Bing looked at Cen Li who had gone and returned, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Cen Li didn't feel right until he left the room, why did he run away!He even touched Wang Bing's body all over, and it's not like he's never seen Wang Bing drink medicine!This is promising!

Then His Highness the Crown Prince became more and more bewildered, throwing the bowl to the servant and then returning it, closing the door as soon as he came in, walking to the couch, saying: "Sleep with you."

"Oh..." Wang Bing lay down suspiciously, although it was only past the time for breakfast, he went to bed late last night, and he got a fever again, and he was so sleepy that he fell asleep after a while.

Cen Li had already gained experience in taking care of him. Seeing the quilt on Wang Bing's chest undulating slightly, he stretched out his hand to feel his forehead. It was still very hot, but it was a little less hot than last night.

Cen Li was sitting on the floor next to the couch like a wolf dog. Last night Wang was ill and confused and was talking in sleep, Cen Li was a little worried.

After a while, someone knocked on the door. Even if Cen Li didn't want to see anyone, he had to tell that person to stop knocking and get out. He opened the door with a dark face. It was Qi Xiangmei who came. After greeting Cen Li, he said goodbye want to go inside.

Cen Li blocked the door, "What's the matter?"

"Yesterday I was too busy looking for him, but I forgot to tell you that around the time when Mo Wankong returned to the Qi Mansion, our people saw Yuan Ping waiting to go to the county office." Qi Xiangmei laughed secretly in her heart, what Cen Li said last night , coupled with the appearance of being so impatient to ask someone to hire a doctor today, how could she not see Cen Li's thoughts.

"For what, I think you, cousin, know better than I do."

As soon as Cen Li heard about Lin Yi, he became angry. He was the one who had enmity with Lin Yi. Why did it seem that Lin Yi was seeking revenge with him? He sneered and said, "Che, anyway, he is very capable. I am here Sanyin has already seen it."

"No, this matter has nothing to do with him. It was Han Kuang who brought the head into the county office, cousin."

Cen Li lowered his voice as much as possible and said, "Why are you helping him? He is our enemy, and Tu Ya was killed by him!"

Qi Xiangmei has never been able to truly accept the fact that Lin Yi is her enemy. This matter was brought up by Cen Li, who did not know which nerve touched Qi Xiangmei, and she immediately came up with a temper that refused to admit defeat, "I know, but These are two different things. You also said that Tu Ya died to protect you, so what does it matter to him? Yes, he bought you in Runan, but did he do anything to you? No matter what his father said What does a perverted bastard have to do with him?"

"You... don't know him at all, so I won't tell you." Cen Li felt disgusted when he thought of how Lin Yi was pestering him on the Shanyin Road when he was tied back to Shanyin, and he couldn't tell Qi Xiangmei about these contemptuous things. , can only close down.After closing the door, he couldn't help thinking: What happened to Qi Xiangmei recently?It was the first time I saw her defend Lianggou like this.

After closing the door, everything returned to silence. Cen Li walked back to the couch and sat down. Seeing the quiet and peaceful face of the sleeping man, his heart also calmed down. All messy noises and entanglements were blocked out, and only this corner of the chaotic world remained. Clean and warm.

Just like when he used to protect himself from the rain.

Wang Bing lay there for ten days. His body was weak, and all his old injuries and diseases were uprooted after a stroke. He changed doctors and medicines repeatedly, and Cen Li was so anxious that he wanted to change his blood.

Early in the morning, Cen Li opened the window to take a breath, fed Wang Bing a bowl of porridge, and carefully wiped his mouth, which completely treated him as a cripple.

Cen Li put the bowl on the table, walked back and sat by the couch, "Aji's body was found, it was near the place where you fainted, the murderer was skilled and clean, and when we dug him out, the body had already appeared. It stinks."

"Yesterday in West Market, Han Kuang killed another 200 people. They were all our eyes."

Cen Li came over and told him everything that happened outside in the past ten days.

But it's all bad news.

Especially Han Kuang, who has become the evil god of the Huns recently. He could hear how many heads he had beheaded every day. Cen Li hated him so much that he gritted his teeth and said his name every time.

Wang Bing originally wanted to tell Cen Li about Han Kuang, but now he dare not even mention Han characters.

Wang Bing saw that Cen Li was very irritable recently, so he could only ask, "Where is the prefect? ​​Is there any movement?" He didn't dare to ask Han Kuang how he was, so he had to use the prefect as an example.

"Qi Xiangmei stared at Ming Lanxuan, Lin Yi occasionally went with him, and Han Kuang also went, Qi Xiangmei said that Han Kuang seemed to be a different person when he met Lin Yi, and he didn't want to say anything. On the other hand, Lin Yi's hot face sticks to his cold butt, and he is very happy."

Wang Bing couldn't help laughing, "It seems that there is a rift between them."

Looking at the pale smile in front of him, Cen Li thought of what the doctor had said. Cen Li didn't understand, he just felt that he had heard about all the intractable diseases in this world, and thought of Wang Bing when he was in Tingwei's prison. He was already out of shape, and he followed him from Jiankangdian to Runan County without feeling tired all the way.

Cen Li really wanted to ask him: Will you miss the ordinary days in Shanyin?Will you think I'm useless?

After a long time, Cen Li clenched his fists subconsciously, his lips trembling with nervousness.

"...Will you regret following me?"

Wang Bing said "ah", Cen Li's voice was very soft, as if blown to pieces by the wind, it floated into his ears in a mess, and he couldn't hear what he was saying.

"What did you say?"

Cen Li smiled, "I told you to get well soon, and I'll take you out to play."

He is the prince of a country and shoulders the important task of revitalizing the Zhao country, so Wang Bing still laughed when he knew it was impossible.

"it is good."

Passing through stunned passers-by, Han Kuang led dozens of soldiers into a gambling shop with lightning speed, and with the arrest warrant, all the people in the shop screamed out of their dreams. Kuang stood up with a steady breath and said in a loud voice: "Han Kuang, the captain in the northern part of Xiarunan, is on official business. Please stay where you are and cooperate with the inspection."

Dozens of soldiers came back after searching quickly, and handed Han Kuang a few pieces of paper full of words, "Report to the captain, the shopkeeper of the gambling house was not found. We found this in the shopkeeper's room."

On the paper was written "God bless Zhao, the crown prince has returned."

Han Kuang turned pale, ordered the soldiers to seal the gambling house, kidnapped all the barbarians present, and escorted them back to the county office one by one.

A long group of people were tied together and driven away with whips under the scorching sun. Han Kuang once again won a complete victory and returned with a full reward.

There was another violent knock on the door of Wang Bing's room. Cen Li took care of him recently and slept on the side of the couch when he was tired.

Qi Xiangmei just received the news that their gambling shop in the city was copied by Han Kuang. That room was opened when they first arrived in King Runan, and it was a place to exchange information of people from various places. Now Han Kuang copied it and cut it off. their connections with other tribesmen.She was in a hurry to discuss such a big matter with Cen Li. Seeing Wang Bing at this moment felt like adding fuel to the fire, and her tone was not as polite as usual, "Where's my cousin?"

"I'll call him." Wang Bing knew something was wrong by seeing her face, so he hurried in to wake Cen Li, Qi Xiangmei had already entered the room, and said, "The gambling house was raided by Han Kuang, and everyone was taken to the county government office. gone."

Cen Li was so frightened by these words that he immediately lost his sleepiness, "Where's shopkeeper Zhao?"

"He left the city yesterday. He is going to the next county to take care of his seriously ill old mother. He won't be able to come back for a while. It's okay if he hasn't been arrested. We won't be exposed for the time being. But the casino is gone, so we can't do anything." Connect with other tribes..."

Qi Xiangmei was in the middle of speaking, and Mo Wankong shouted at the door: "It's bad, it's bad, Your Highness, the old minister should die..."

The three people in the room looked at Mo Wankong. Mo Wankong was secretly surprised when he saw Qi Xiangmei and Wang Bing, and bowed to Cen Li, "Your Highness, our gambling shop was copied by Han Kuang, what's the matter?" manage?"

"Prime Minister, what's going on here!" Cen Li opened his eyes wide, as if he had just heard the news that a disaster was imminent.

Wang Bing took a look at Mo Wankong, he was sweating profusely and panting heavily, and said, "Han Kuang led his soldiers to attack the gambling house early in the morning, and he caught all our people. The first property we bought in Runan, every day, our own people pretended to be gambling ghosts to report the news, and once the gambling house was closed, we cut off the audio-visual to the outside world."

Cen Li: "Then according to the Prime Minister, what should we do?"

"This……"

Mo Wankong froze, and was caught off guard by Cen Li's question. He hadn't prepared a draft yet, so how could he deal with it?You can only look at the ground.

Cen Li waited for a while without replying, so he dismissed him casually, and said, "Han Kuang massacred our people for several days in a row, and he managed to get rid of our lair so quickly, someone must have leaked the news, Prime Minister, You go and get the roster, all the clansmen in Runan County, not a single child will be left behind."

Mo Wankong ran away with his tail between his legs as if he had received an amnesty.

"Cousin, although your method of dismissing him is very ordinary, but what you said makes sense." Qi Xiangmei waited for Mo Wankong to disappear before speaking.

"Since the time when the refugees outside the city were killed and killed, Han Kuang has been pressing every step of the way. This time he actually moved to the gambling house. The matter is definitely not simple." Cen Li bit his lower lip and turned to ask Wang Bing: "Is it okay if you don't lie down?"

Qi Xiangmei: "..."

"No...it doesn't matter." Wang Bing stammered, "I'm fine."

Cen Li smiled, "Then just listen, it's okay, I'm not trying to drive you away."

"It was that day. I think something must have happened to make Han Kuang so crazy." Cen Li repeated what happened that day, and the three of them still felt that there was nothing missing or wrong.

After a moment of silence, Wang Bing asked cautiously, "Have you found Xu Buzhen?"

Qi Xiangmei: "I don't know if he is dead or alive. Recently, everyone is in fear. There is no time to hide. No one dares to go out and look for him."

"Do you suspect it's him?" Cen Li always regarded Xu Buzhen as a dead person. Han Kuang would not be careless enough to kill him, but hearing Wang Bing's tone, did he always think that Xu Buzhen was not dead?

Qi Xiangmei immediately denied it categorically: "Impossible, he went to pick up people outside the city, and those people are dead, how could he still be alive?"

Wang Bing intuitively felt that those bloodstains were related to his being attacked. In such a hidden place, it was like the traces left by someone who was wounded and escaped. Naturally, Han Kuang's people couldn't. Even if someone was injured, they didn't need to hide alone.If the possibility of third-party intervention is ruled out, then those bloodstains must have been left behind when Han Kuang killed the Huns who escaped.

Being bumped into by him, he was afraid that he would turn himself in, so he wanted to kill him to silence him.

What Cen Li said just now reminded him that it was from that day on that Han Kuang pressed the barbarians like crazy and killed them all by surprise. Then, where did Han Kuang's information come from?

Wang Bing nodded. According to ordinary people's thinking, Qi Xiangmei's words were not wrong, but none of them saw the murder process with their own eyes. Many things cannot be explained according to common sense. What I want to say is, "That Mo Wankong said that a total of 95 people outside the city were killed by Han Kuang. Could it be that Xu Buzhen was not among the 95 people? Or, he didn't receive those refugees at all. With all due respect, the refugees It is impossible to grasp your news, only Xu Bu really..."

Qi Xiangmei quickly guessed what he meant, as if hearing a big joke, turned up the volume, laughed and said: "You mean he escaped and betrayed us? He is a spy? Are you not crazy? You let Do we doubt our own people?"

Wang Bing anxiously explained: "I didn't, Miss Qi, I was just talking about my own thoughts, and I know this..."

Although Qi Xiangmei's surname is Qi, her temper has followed her mother's. She is very introverted and won't listen to outsiders saying anything bad about them.In addition, recently, their crown prince's attention is all on Wang Xin, a burden. Once the anger is ignited, she will see what Wang Xin thinks and displeases her. When she criticizes Wang Xin, she will cover Wang Bing's head like a flood breaking a bank: "Then You disappeared for a long time on Sunday, why didn't you say where you went? I think you are the spy, right? Aji was killed by you, do you know? He has been watching the three of us grow up, never did What a shame, I just went out with you and died like this." Qi Xiangmei pointed at Wang Bing angrily, her beautiful face became distorted: "You... are simply the god of plague! Everything has changed into a mess when you came ! Do you still have the face to divide us here?"

"I..." Wang Bing hesitated for a long time, what should he say?Want to say that he was brought to Han Kuang, and then Han Kuang greeted him well?Or were they masters and servants in the past, and now they are so grateful to have a chat after a long absence?Even he himself didn't believe it.Qi Xiangmei was right, it was his fault that Aji died for no apparent reason.

Wang Bing lowered his head in shame, his voice was low and unassuming, "No... I didn't mean to drive a wedge between you."

He didn't know what to say, he had a headache, suffocation, his heart seemed to be squeezed into seven or eight shapes by one hand, and he could only barely retain a trace of wit by digging his nails into the flesh.

It's better to recruit them all... But will Cen Li believe him?

He was a little afraid to gamble.

When Wang Bing was at war between heaven and man, Qi Xiangmei suddenly uttered a desperately suppressed scream. Wang Bing looked up in surprise, except for a figure from the back that occupied all his sight, he couldn't see anything else.

"Why didn't you inherit Uncle's good temper? When you get angry, you spout blood? Calm down! Qi Xiangmei!"

Cen Li looked at Qi Xiangmei who was covering his face with a dazed expression. He didn't accuse her in an aggressive tone, but his tone was higher than usual. He was trying his best to endure, and he was also affected by Qi Xiangmei's words.

There was an awkward silence in the room.

After a while, Cen Li forced himself to calm down, "Enough is enough, don't..." Cen Li wanted to say, but the person behind him suddenly pushed him away gently, and Cen Li wanted to tell him to hide for a while, I want to enlighten this yellow-haired girl , Wang Bing had already spoken before him.

"Miss Qi, I definitely don't mean to separate you. Is that good for me. And if you want to know where I went that day, I can tell you now. "

Cen Li kept staring at his side face, Wang Bing's calmness and calmness made people feel intimidated.On the other hand, Cen Li was much more nervous than him, because this was what he wanted to know the most, and he didn't ask too much about Wang's illness if he didn't mention it before.

He was nervous, not because of the same suspicion as Qi Xiangmei, but purely out of concern.

After listening to Wang Bing's talk about what happened that day, Cen Li not only didn't relax, but became even more nervous. He pulled his sleeves all over his body guardedly, as if to tear off his sleeves on the spot, "So, he thought you were killed by us. Kidnapped, he is actually looking for you?"

Han Kuang was indeed able to do this kind of thing, but Wang Bing didn't reveal a word to him, so how could he know that Wang Bing was with the Hu people?

Wang Bing pondered for a while, "I don't know, but I think, as long as I go to the Han Mansion again, I will know."

"Yes, you can go, Han Kuang is a serious concern, you can try...Cousin, let him try." Qi Xiangmei looked at Cen Li beggingly, "We are completely passive, if we don't stop Han Kuang, more clansmen will die, and you don’t want them to die for no reason like Aji, right?”

Cen Li pulled off his sleeve viciously as if he couldn't hear it, Wang Bing smiled and let him make trouble with his sleeve like venting hatred.

Sleeves: Am I breaking?
