A good night of rest was ruined by a group of bandits.

On the messy campsite, under the dispatch of "Xuanjing", the twenty or so guards who survived were digging pits, burying corpses, tidying up tents, and a small number of people were responsible for counting the number of guards in the convoy. There are no defects in the food and medicinal materials.The strong smell of blood wafted in the air, causing the entire disaster relief team to fall into a depressed atmosphere.

In the corner, there was a faint whisper from an inconspicuous carriage.

"Your Highness, why don't we switch back. It's too dangerous to pretend to be a servant." Xiao Qiuzi suggested with some anxiety.

"Don't worry, I have my own measure." Xuan Jing lay on the soft cushion, and let Fu Yun massage the bruises on his back with medicinal wine, "It's you, who has no strength to restrain the chicken, Be very careful around those two. Do you still have the whistle I gave you?"

Because Xuan Jing was charged with punishing his six relatives, he paid special attention to Xiao Qiuzi's safety.In order to prevent the tragedy of the previous life, he specially got a whistle for Xiao Qiuzi, and asked a magpie to follow Xiao Qiuzi at all times, just in case.

When Xiaoqiuzi heard it, he quickly took out the whistle hanging around his neck: "I'm taking it."

Xuan Jing smiled and said: "That's good. You go back first, it's easy to make people suspicious if you stay with me for a long time."

"...Yes." Seeing Xuan Jing's insistence, Xiao Qiuzi had no choice but to compromise.He took a last look at Xuan Jing before slowly getting out of the carriage.

After Xiaoqiuzi left, Fu Yun, who had been pretending to be an obedient boy, immediately took off his disguise, and there was a hint of displeasure in his unruly eyes: "Your Highness is very fond of your servant."

Xuan Jing said inexplicably: "My people, I naturally take care of them."

A dark light flashed in Fu Yun's eyes, and the corners of his mouth slightly hooked: "Then am I considered His Highness's person?" He said, stopped his movements, leaned slightly and brought his face closer to Xuan Jing, smiling wantonly.

Here it comes again... A hint of helplessness flashed in Xuan Jing's eyes.For some reason, Fu Yun at night especially likes to make some little tricks to him that draw people's imagination.If the other party is a woman, he can still think in that direction.But the other party is a man, could it be... This is his unique way of expressing intimacy with his friends?Although he didn't reject Fu Yun's closeness, it seemed that this small gesture was too frequent.

Seeing that Xuan Jing didn't speak, Fu Yun moved his face closer to Xuan Jing: "Why didn't you speak?"

Xuan Jing's eyes flickered slightly, and he smiled meaningfully: "I was thinking about how to make you shy."

"Shy?" Fu Yun was stunned, apparently he didn't expect Xuan Jing to say such words suddenly, his expression suddenly became a little unnatural.

"Yes. I heard that although some people appear to be very indulgent on the surface, they are very innocent in their hearts. I don't know if such people exist?"

Fu Yun's body froze: "You...why are you saying this all of a sudden?"

"Nothing, just curious."

As Xuan Jing said, he suddenly turned over and pressed Fu Yun under him.At that time, the faces of the two people were very close, so close that as long as they moved forward a little, their lips could kiss.

"Boom boom boom——"

I don't know whose heartbeat suddenly became rapid.

Fu Yun's Adam's apple twitched slightly, his eyes faded from the charming sharpness of the past, and he looked a little dull: "What... are you going to do?" While speaking, his gaze gradually moved down involuntarily, and finally settled on Xuanjing's lips .

In the line of sight, the thin lips that were very close to him approached him little by little.

Slowly, slowly, getting closer.

The tips of Fu Yun's ears hidden between the black hair gradually turned red.

Next to my ear was Xuan Jing's voice that seemed to come from the sky: "Xiao Yun seems to like talking to me like this? Would you like to get closer?"

Seeing that the lips were about to be printed on his own, Fu Yun's pupils dilated instantly.He violently pushed Xuan Jing away, turned his back to Xuan Jing and said, "Ahem, let's talk about the robbers tonight."

Behind him was Xuan Jing's regretful voice: "Okay then. By the way, I have to continue to bother Xiao Yun about taking the medicine." After speaking, a medicine bottle was thrown from behind, and Fu Yun stretched out his hand to catch it.

It took a while before Fu Yun realized that he had been played by Xuan Jing.Embarrassment and anger rolled in his chest, making his teeth itch with anger.He stared at the medicine bottle in his hand, gritted his teeth and said, "Understood!" Only the burning sensation from the tips of his ears reminded him of his embarrassment and loss of composure just now.

Xuan Jing whistled in his heart.It seems that this trick is very effective, you can try more in the future.

"Do you suspect that the robbers this time have something to do with the officials in Luobei?" When it came to business, Fu Yun's face became serious.

"That's right. The convoy has been traveling for more than half a month, and it's already close to the Luohe area. It will take a few days to reach Luobei County. The eight counties in Luobei were destroyed by the flood, and it is normal for some refugees to loot. It's a pity that this robbery is full of weirdness, it's hard for me not to suspect it."

"Oh? I only noticed one thing. Those robbers came at a very coincidental time, just when we went to bathe in batches and attacked when our defense was weakest. If it was just a simple robber, it would be impossible for them to be so familiar with our work and rest. The timing is so accurate." Fu Yun said coldly.

Xuan Jing admired: "That's one point. Another point is that they killed people."

Fu Yun stopped applying the medicine: "The person who killed?"

"That's right, apart from killing some of the guards who resisted them, these bandits killed the accompanying doctors the most. If they were ordinary bandits, they wouldn't be so precise in their killing, and they would only kill doctors." Xuan Jing pointed out sharply. This doubt.

"But what's the point of them doing this?" Fu Yun was puzzled.

Xuan Jing sneered, opened his eyes, and there was a cold light in his black eyes: "It's very meaningful. Kill some disobedient doctors, and the rest will be obedient. When we arrive at the county guard, we will casually dye a few I threw the plague-infested clothes in my room, and after I contracted the plague, he and his obedient doctor treated me, and it would be easy for me to die. Looking back, the emperor searched and found no trace.”

"What?!" Fu Yun's expression changed slightly, and his eyes instantly became sharp as a knife.After Xuanjing made such a quick call, he instantly figured out the key point.

If there is really something hidden in this flood, then those officials will definitely not let the two of them find out any clues.The best way is naturally to infect Xuanjing with the plague.Then try to put most of the blame on him.But this time when he was ordered to investigate the case, not only did he fail to solve the case, but instead caused the prince who was traveling with him to die tragically.These two charges alone were enough to kill him.

Thinking of this, Fu Yun's eyes burst into murderous intent.A strong bloodthirsty desire quickly boiled in his blood.

"If I were those officials, I would do the same. Get rid of me, the prince, and blame the imperial envoy, and then kill the witnesses in the same way. In this way, kill two birds with one stone. And if the emperor is another They sent officials to investigate, but because of the lessons learned from the past, they did not dare to investigate seriously. It is very likely that only one or two scapegoats will be dealt with. The real mastermind behind the scenes is still at large." Xuan Jing talked eloquently.

"Oh. These people don't live long." Fu Yun said coldly.

Xuan Jing smiled and said: "Some people do not live for a short time, but some people can still live for a long time."

"Huh?" Fu Yun raised his eyebrows puzzled.

Xuan Jing didn't explain, but changed the subject: "Xiao Yun should be more careful next time when he makes a move, don't kill everyone for the sake of momentary pleasure and enmity."

"Whispering." Fu Yun, who had finished the massage, twitched his mouth and threw the medicine bottle aside in displeasure.

***

In the dark night, a hidden mountain was full of voices, mixed with all kinds of shouting and cursing.

"Boss, this time we lost a lot. In the end, we killed a few guards without looting a car of food, and lost forty brothers. What a loss!" said a dark and rough man.

The big bearded man sitting at the head of the seat gave the black man an impatient look: "Do you have to say, I have eyes and can't see it? Grandma, it's all the fault of that bastard grandson who dared to lie to me!" After taking a sip of the wine, he said bitterly, "Sooner or later, I will ask the grandson to get it back!"

A bunch of strong men below echoed.

On a big tree not far away, an owl hiding among the branches watched all this quietly with big round eyes.After listening for a while, the owl flapped its wings and flew away.Soaring in the air with their wings, they quickly flew over the woods, and soon arrived at the place where Xuanjing's convoy camped.

At this time, the night was already very deep.

Except for a few guards on duty who were still sitting by the fire, paying attention to the surrounding movement from time to time, the others had basically fallen into a deep sleep.After the owl flew to the roof of Xuanjing's carriage, it patted the roof with its claws.

Inside the carriage, Xuan Jing who had closed his eyes immediately opened them, and a golden light shone faintly from his clenched right fist.

"How, did you find it?" Xuan Jing said in his heart.

"I found it, and there's nothing I can't do!" The owl replied proudly.

"Okay. Brother Lao Owl will lead the way tomorrow."

"Does it have to be during the day? I'm so sleepy during the day, I may not be able to fly." The owl was a little reluctant.

Xuan Jing smiled in his heart: "Don't worry, it's night."

At this moment, Fu Yun who was lying on the other side of the carriage moved suddenly, Xuan Jing who was afraid that the golden light in his hand would be seen by Fu Yun immediately turned around and put his hand on Fu Yun's lower back.At the same time, he said in his heart: "Then let's stop here today, and we will talk tomorrow night."

"Okay, I'm going to hunt too."

In the night, there was a sound of fluttering wings on the roof of the quiet carriage, and then it subsided.

Xuan Jing breathed a sigh of relief.He glanced at Fu Yun who followed his movements into his arms and unconsciously rubbed against his chest, and was speechless for a while.

The night is getting deeper and deeper.

Early the next morning, the carriage convoy set off.In another day, they will officially step into the border of Luobei County and arrive at the first small county town near the border——Lincheng.It was precisely because of this that Xuan Jing dared to separate from the team.Once in Lincheng, the convoy will temporarily stay in Lincheng for three to five days, which is enough time for him and Fu Yun to destroy the bandit's den, find some evidence and then catch up with the large army.

Looking at the motorcade that was gradually going away, Fu Yun, who had recovered his personality during the day, asked in confusion: "Your Highness, what are we staying for?"

Xuan Jing waved his folding fan and said with a smile: "Relax during the day, and catch thieves at night."
