I heard His Highness has supernatural powers

Since the convoy stayed in an inn in Lincheng, in order not to expose the traces of the two of them.Xuan Jing helped Fu Yun bypass the guards in front of the inn all the way to the back door.Then Fu Yun performed lightness kung fu and led the two of them directly into the only upper room on the second floor.

That was the room reserved by the team for Xuan Jing and Fu Yun.

As soon as the two of them entered, they heard a loud shout from inside the room: "Who is it?!"

Looking up, I saw four men standing in front of me.Two of them are the substitutes of Fu Yun and Xuan Jing, and the other two men are dressed exactly the same as the disguised attendants of Xuan Jing and Fu Yun.Presumably, in order to cover up the fact that the two of them had left the convoy, Fu Yun temporarily arranged a disguised follower.

These four men are Fu Yun's confidants and have been by Fu Yun's side for many years.Therefore, he saw through Fu Yun's disguise at a glance.Since one of the people who came was his master, the other man was naturally His Highness Fifth.The four who understood this in an instant quickly put away their weapons, knelt on one knee and said, "See Your Highness Fifth, Lord Shoufu."

Xuan Jing said: "Excuse me."

"Yes!"

The four of them were about to get up when Fu Yun, who was half leaning on Xuan Jing's body, suddenly let out a muffled snort, and fell forward with his eyes closed.

"Fu Yun!" Xuan Jing's expression changed, and he hurriedly stepped forward to hug him.

The four kneeling subordinates were also taken aback, and they all got up and surrounded them: "Master!"

Fu Yun, who fell into a semi-comatose state, his eyelashes trembled slightly, and finally fell into darkness.

"Your Excellency, it was backlashed by internal force. Fortunately, the injury is not too serious. It only needs to be recuperated for half a month to recover. It's just that you can't use force within this half month, otherwise the injury will be aggravated." The white beard sitting beside the bed The old man stroked his beard and said.

This old man is the military doctor He Qian left for Fu Yun, he has been by He Qian's side for many years, and he is trustworthy.

Hearing what the military doctor said, Xuan Jing's hanging heart was finally relieved, and after carefully listening to the military doctor's explanation, he waved away the group of people and stood by Fu Yun's side alone.

It was an accident that Fu Yun was injured this time.Originally, if it was just the excessive exhaustion of internal energy, Fu Yun could recover as long as he meditated and adjusted his breath, but he would encounter refugees out of control on the way.Without this accident, Fu Yun would not have been injured at all.Thinking of this, the eyes of Xuan Jing who was sitting by the bed sank.

Accident... another accident.With him around, people around him will always encounter various accidents.When I was a child, I was a parent, and when I grew up, I was an old man.But now, this person has become Fu Yun.

Xuan Jing raised his hand a little numbly, and looked at the lines on his palm.

The palm prints are complicated and deep, criss-crossing and messy, just like his strange fate.

He couldn't help recalling what the old butler said to him again: "You are the lone star of the devil, and you will punish the fate of your relatives. Anyone who gets close to you will die!"

Ah.Is it the lone star of Tiansha?A sarcasm flashed across Xuanjing's eyes.He just sat on the edge of the bed, silent for a long time, and finally made a decision in his heart.

On the bed, Fu Yun slowly opened his eyes and gradually woke up.There was an involuntary hum between the nostrils.

Hearing the movement, Xuan Jing came back to his senses, and quickly put on a kind smile on his face: "Are you awake?"

Seeing Xuan Jing guarding her side, Fu Yun's heart warmed, and he smiled weakly: "I'm fine, I'm sorry, I made His Highness worry again."

"Worried?" Xuan Jing showed a bewildered expression, smiled aloofly and politely, "Master Fu is worrying too much, the military doctor said that your body is fine, so there is no need for my Highness to worry."

Fu Yun's smile stagnated, and he always felt that the Xuanjing in front of him seemed to be a lot stranger to him.

"Since Mr. Fu is awake, let's drink the medicine quickly. By the way, can Mr. Fu drink it by himself? Do you need my Highness to call a servant to serve you?" Xuan Jing picked up a bowl of hot water Potion, like a kind proposal.

The more Fu Yun listened, the paler his face became.There was nothing wrong with what Xuan Jing said at first glance, but it was obvious that he was suddenly classified from a friend to an ordinary official colleague.The intimacy among them is clear at a glance.When dealing with friends, even if Xuan Jing is a prince, he can feed him medicine with his own hands.But if you regard him as an ordinary official, Xuan Jing, as the prince, is the master, and he is the subordinate.Naturally, the master cannot serve his subordinates.So Xuan Jing called himself His Highness in front of him, and asked a servant to serve him.

Did he no longer consider himself a friend?

There was an inexplicable cramping pain in his chest.Fu Yun was puzzled and said: "Xiao...Xiaojing, are you... angry?" The title that he had been reluctant to call out in private because of shyness, was called out so naturally.It's as if if you don't call now, you will lose your chance in the future.

"Angry?" Xuan Jing put down the medicine bowl, helped Fu Yun up, and padded the pillow on his back.The action was gentle and considerate, but what he just said made Fu Yun feel chills, "Why is my Highness angry?" He looked at him with a smile, as if he was really puzzled.However, the sense of estrangement between those manners is so obvious.

Fu Yun didn't know what to say for a while.He didn't know why Xuanjing suddenly became like this.What did he do wrong?

However, Xuan Jing seemed to turn a blind eye to Fu Yun's pale face, he handed the medicine bowl to Fu Yun's hand: "Since Mr. Fu is fine, His Highness will take my leave first."

As he spoke, before Fu Yun could open his mouth, he strode away without looking back.That back figure is very decisive, without a trace of nostalgia.Until a long time after the door closed, Fu Yun, who was sitting on the bed blankly, was ashen-faced, still unable to understand all this.

Did Xuan Jing hate him?But why?

He stared blankly at the decoction that had gradually cooled down, feeling bitter in his heart.Obviously the medicine is not in the mouth, but why is it so bitter?

***

After leaving the room, the smile on Xuanjing's face suddenly faded.Xiao Qiuzi, who had been guarding the door early, greeted him quickly, and said happily, "Your Highness! You are finally back, I am so worried. Is Master Fu okay?"

Xuan Jing said with a sullen face: "Didn't you tell me not to call me Your Highness casually?"

It was the first time for Xiaoqiuzi to be reprimanded so harshly, his mouth curled up, and his heart was full of grievances: "I'm sorry, Dian... Xiaojing, I know I was wrong. But I also saw that there was no one around, so I called it that way." .”

Xuan Jing's eyes froze for a moment, that's right, the first order he gave after returning was to ask the convoy to allocate some manpower to help the county magistrate and others build houses and refugee camps.At this moment in the inn, there was almost no one on the second floor.There are only a few tall and powerful guards with good martial arts and some entourage on the first floor to guard the convoy's salute, food, medicinal materials, etc.

"Xiaojing?" Seeing that Xuanjing was silent, Xiaoqiuzi called softly.

Xuan Jing came back to his senses, and said lightly, "You stay in the inn, be careful and safe. I'm going out for a while."

"What? You still want to go out? It's so chaotic outside now, and you don't have Master Fu to protect you, no, I have to follow you to protect your safety." Xiaoqiuzi vowed.

Seeing Xiaoqiuzi's appearance of being ready to die for him at any time, Xuan Jing sighed in his heart, and the depression accumulated in his heart suddenly dissipated a little.He smiled suddenly: "Okay, if you can make a move under my hands, I will take you out."

When Xiaoqiuzi heard this, he suddenly regained his spirits: "Your Highness said this, please don't go back on your word!"

During these days in the convoy, Xiao Qiuzi also learned a few tricks from several guards.Although he didn't have the confidence to defeat His Highness, he still had confidence in making a move under His Highness's hands.

"Your Highness, the little one is here!" Xiao Qiuzi rolled up his sleeves, made a decent gesture, and rushed towards Xuanjing, "Ha!"

Xuan Jing chuckled, turned sideways slightly, didn't even move his hands, just lifted his feet, Xiao Qiuzi, who was rushing forward, couldn't stop for a while, and was tripped by a dog and chewed mud.

"Ouch!" Xiaoqiuzi fell on the ground until gold stars appeared in front of his eyes.

Xuan Jing stood aside, sighing like a sigh: "It seems that your martial arts are not perfect yet, so I'm leaving."

"Hey? Wait! Dian...Xiaojing!" Xiaoqiuzi struggled to raise his head, where was there still half a figure in front of him?

After Xuan Jing went downstairs, he drew a follower from the team in the name of His Highness the Fifth Highness to follow him.The entourage was actually an assistant sent by the emperor to Xuan Jing and Fu Yun. His name was Anyang, and he was good at managing water conservancy projects and other matters.In order to protect this professional, he followed the team as an ordinary attendant along the way.Except for Fu Yun and Xuan Jing, no one knows his true identity.

Xuan Jing led Master An along the dilapidated streets, all the way to the residential area, wanting to see what was unusual.When the two of them walked to a residential courtyard, Master An suddenly stopped in his tracks.

"Huh?" Master An looked at the gate of the residence and frowned.

"What's the matter? Is there any problem?" Seeing Master An stop, Xuan Jing also stopped, looked at the gate, but found nothing unusual.

This is a severely damaged residential house. The owner of the house has moved out, leaving only an empty house.The door of the house is incomplete, and one can imagine the dangerous situation when it was hit by a flood.

Master An shook his head and didn't answer, but went straight into the yard, lowered his head, and carefully inspected the corners of the yard and the front of the gate, making a questioning sound from time to time. Master An's entire face became serious.

Xuan Jing said: "Is there a problem with this house?"

Master An nodded: "Yes, there is no drainage outlet in this residential house."

"The drain?"

Seeing that Xuanjing was unclear, Master An patiently explained: "Little brother, you don't know something. There are clear regulations in the national law of our Han Dynasty, but in any town near the river, every house has a It must be equipped with a drainage outlet. Whenever there is too much water in the local area, this drainage outlet will discharge the excess water into the underground ditch network and flow into the moat and other nearby rivers. In this way, the flow of the flood can be effectively controlled , to reduce losses. And I just searched the yard, and did not find the drain."

Although Master An didn't say what was said later, Xuanjing understood it easily.Since it is a national law, the imperial court will definitely allocate money every year for officials from all over the country to implement it.Now the money has been allocated, but the project is not in place.So where did the silver go?Who is involved in these things?If you look into it, you can go up to the Shaofu and Neishifu in Kyoto, down to the local sheriff and supervisor, and the county magistrate and county magistrate at the next level. These people cannot escape their ties.After all, if you want to tamper with the drain without telling the emperor, you can't do it alone.

Master An can think of these things, so Xuan Jing can naturally think of them, and he can even think of them further.Now they have only found the tip of the iceberg. If they find more clues in the future, what will the emperor do when they report back to the emperor?Is it a big cleansing of the forces in the DPRK and China, or is it just to settle the matter and punish a few minions?

Thinking of this, Xuan Jing's black eyes darkened.

After that, the two checked other vacant houses and found that most of them had no drains.After discovering this fact, the atmosphere between the two became a little heavy.Xuan Jing felt depressed and didn't want to go back to face Fu Yun for the time being, so after sending Master An back to the inn, he came to the city wall alone to blow the cold wind.

It was evening at that time, and the sky was full of orange rays of light and the fire clouds slowly changing shape with the wind, reflecting the dead branches in the distance and the sallow and emaciated refugees, revealing a different kind of desolation.Standing on the city wall, Xuan Jing looked at this scene, and couldn't calm down for a while.

For now, there are only two things worth worrying about.One is the case of Luo Haoyu.Judging from the clues we have now, there is indeed something else hidden about Luo Haoyu's case.But this case is not complicated, the difficulty lies in collecting evidence and finding out the interest network involved in the case.The other one is about the appeasement of the victims in Luobei County and the reconstruction of the destroyed county.But these are not difficult for Xuan Jing.What worries him the most now is his cheating fate.

The lone star of Tiansha, punishes the six relatives.This simple eight-character order can be said to be the biggest obstacle for him to become emperor in the Han Dynasty.If he wanted to break out from the crowd of princes and gain the appreciation of the emperor, he had to form good relationships and win over courtiers.But now, if he gets too close to others, bad luck will happen to others.In this way, it is equivalent to completely cutting off his path.Not being able to make friends with others, not being able to cultivate a confidant, for him now, it is undoubtedly a dead end.

Therefore, it is imperative to find a way to break this curse as soon as possible.But the matter of the curse was too mysterious, and he had no way of investigating it.Is it necessary for him to do nothing and just wait for the "opportunity" that the national teacher said?

Under the setting sun, Xuan Jing's face became more and more serious.He didn't know that the opportunity he was thinking about was "killing" towards Fu Yun's room at this time.

In the slightly empty guest room, Fu Yun was still sitting on the bed in a daze, as quiet as a sculpture.The medicine bowl in his hand was still full, but the medicine inside was completely cold, just like his mood at the moment.He sat in the room all afternoon.However, the whole afternoon, the person he was waiting for did not show up.

After an unknown amount of time, he finally moved his hand holding the medicine bowl, and slowly put the medicine bowl on the bench beside him.He was half lying on the side of the bed, staring blankly at the eaves, his eyes filled with emptiness.It suddenly occurred to him that when he was eight years old, he seemed to be lying in bed silently like today, not eating or drinking, and not talking to anyone.However, at that time there was still a little prince whispering in his ear.But now, the little prince seems to have given up on him.

Inexplicably, I felt empty in my heart, as if a piece was missing.

Too.He shouldn't expect anything that doesn't belong to him.Expecting too much will only increase the pain, won't it?He thought a little dejectedly.

At this time, a childish scream suddenly came from above the roof.

"Ahhhh!!!"

Fu Yun was startled, and when he took a closer look, he saw a small group of red fur balls falling from the sky, penetrating the roof so strangely and hitting him straight.

boom!

The fur ball hit the edge of the bed, making a dull, muffled sound. "Pain, pain, pain!" Mao Qiu moved his body and stood up tremblingly.It turned out to be a chubby little red chicken, and what surprised Fu Yun most was that this little red chicken could speak human words! ?

Fu Yun, who was sitting on the bed, watched this scene in shock, and for a moment suspected that he was dreaming.

After the little red chicken stood up, it rubbed its head with its small wings, and its big round eyes looked around the room, as if looking for something: "Huh? Where's the adulterer? Didn't the mirror of heaven and earth show that he was in this place?" ? Could it be that I landed in the wrong place?"

The little red chicken was talking to himself, and actually took out a huge iron mirror out of thin air, looked at it carefully, and completely regarded Fu Yun as air.However, the iron mirror was just like an ordinary iron mirror. The little red chicken stared at the mirror for a long time, but couldn't see anything except staring at the fat chicken in the mirror.

"How could this be? The Qiankun mirror is out of order? It's not right!" The little red chicken angrily waved the iron mirror, which was more than twice its size, in the air.While waving, he was facing Fu Yun's suspicious eyes.

For a moment, it was as quiet as death.

The little red chicken who was stunned took a while to react, and screamed excitedly: "You, you, you, can you see me?"

Fu Yun nodded awkwardly.

The little red chicken continued to scream in disbelief: "This is impossible, you are just a mortal, how could you see me? I am the most honorable little phoenix Qin Xiaodan in the world!"

Phoenix?Ancient beasts recorded in ancient books?Fu Yun was stunned for a moment.But he quickly dismissed the idea.He raised his hand, rubbed the center of his brow, and sighed.It seems that he has been a little overworked recently, and he is a little confused.

However, the chirping voices in my ears did not stop: "Forget it, let's not talk about this. Hey, did you see a man in blue clothes in this room? He is quite tall, with a little white face and a It doesn't look like a good person."

Blue clothes?After rubbing the center of his eyebrows, Fu Yun looked at the proud little red chicken standing on him with his waist in an unpredictable manner.There were quite a few men in this room today, but there was only one in blue.Xuanjing.

"Hey, I'm talking to you! Didn't you hear?" the little red chicken said impatiently.Although it tried its best to put on a very imposing appearance, but because it was only the size of a palm, its voice sounded like a baby, and when the pitch was high, it seemed like a baby.

Fu Yun didn't dare to underestimate such a little red chicken.After all, he watched the little red chicken go through the roof out of thin air, conjure up a mirror out of thin air, and speak words.If all this is not a dream, then at least it means that the little red chicken in front of him is not an ordinary little chicken.

He restrained his thoughts and smiled gently: "There are too many people in blue clothes, I can't remember clearly. Can you be more specific? For example, what's their name?"

"Huh?" The little red chicken was stunned for a moment, "What's his name? This... I don't know about this, I only know that he is wearing blue clothes and he is about this tall." As it said, it raised its small wings and gestured .Thinking of something, Little Red Chicken added angrily, "Oh, he was hugging my dad before. My dad is dressed in black, and he is a very handsome and handsome man."

Hug... hug together?Fu Yun's eyes twitched.It seemed that he was overthinking, Xuan Jing had never hugged any man in black in this room.He was about to answer when he heard a "creak", and the door of the guest room was opened.Fu Yun and the little red chicken looked at the door together.

At the door, Xuanjing Shi Shiran, dressed in blue, walked in.He had a warm smile on his face, and when he saw a little red chicken inexplicably beside Fu Yun's bed, he said in surprise: "Master Fu, where did you buy this little chicken?" He strode over , before the little red chicken could react, she held it in the palm of her hand and stroked her fur, "It looks cute."

The little red chicken recovered from being touched, and immediately struggled and shouted: "Ah! You adulterer, let me go! There is a way in the heavens, you don't go, and there is no way in the underworld, you just barge in. Look at me!" How to deal with you!"

Xuan Jing was amazed.This chicken can speak human language?It is completely different from the past when he communicated with small animals by consciousness.

The little red chicken struggled to stand up from Xuanjing's hand, kicked its short legs, and immediately flew into the air with its small wings.It looked straight at Xuanjing and said with righteous indignation: "Hmph! Today, I will seek justice for my mother! Who made you so bold that you dare to hook up with my father!"

Xuan Jing looked puzzled, what was this little guy talking about?
