Chapter 271: Waiting to be Killed

After lunch, the old housekeeper came, saying that Master Taishi was back, and invited Zhou Tianqi and Lin Wan to his big study to discuss important matters. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

The old housekeeper personally led Zhou Tianqi and Lin Wan to Li Xingyu's courtyard, left the two of them in the side hall to wait, and went to the big study to report first.

After a while, the old butler walked back and said apologetically: "I have kept you two waiting for a long time, Vice General Ning is here, and Master Taishi is discussing with him, please sit down for a while." ”

Lin Wan smiled slightly and said politely: "It's okay, we're not in a hurry." ”

There is no serious hostess in the Taishi Mansion, the population is simple, but there are many guards, and there are many people who come and go. The guards and secret guards in the house are all managed by Huo Lun, and the people and trivial affairs in the house are taken care of by the old housekeeper. The old housekeeper had a lot of things to do, so he asked Yahuan to serve him well, so he said goodbye and left.

After waiting for about another cup of tea, a maid walked quickly to the side hall, bowed and said, "Master Taishi, please go to the study to meet each other." ”

Zhou Tianqi nodded lightly, followed the girl ring with Lin Wan, and slowly walked towards the large study in the main hall.

As soon as I walked outside the main hall, I saw a beautiful man wearing black armor and a big red cloak coming out of the hall.

Facing each other, Zhou Tianqi and the man looked at each other head-on, and the eyes of both parties flashed with exploration and vigilance. However, the footsteps do not stop, passing each other.

When I walked into the study, I saw Li Xingyu sitting behind the desk with an unusually solemn expression, full of anger. Standing next to him was Huo Lun, who was like a door god.

Zhou Tianqi and Lin Wan bowed and saluted, "I've seen Master Taishi!"

Li Xingyu's eyes were full of irrepressible anger, staring at Zhou Tianqi and Lin Wan, his voice was low and fierce: "Say, do you have any way to help this official recover his strength?"

Zhou Tianqi was silent for a long time before he shook his head and said, "There is no accurate formula, so I don't dare to try it easily." ”

Li Xingyu had no patience anymore, waved his big hand, and shouted: "Come on, pull the two of them down to the official and behead them!"

The corners of Huo Lun's mouth on the side twitched slightly, revealing a gloating expression, but his eyes were staring at Zhou Tianqi, secretly exercising his skills, ready to fight at any time.

"Slow!" It was Lin Wan behind Zhou Tianqi who spoke.

Li Xingyu raised his hand, stopped the guards who were about to come forward to arrest the two in time, and asked in a cold voice, "Do you have a way?"

Lin Wan smiled slightly, shook his head again, and said, "I won't detoxify." However, I know who has a cure for all poisons. ”

Li Xingyu twisted his eyebrows and asked impatiently, "If you are talking about the Seven Star Pill, then there is no need to say it." This official has his own way, you still have to die!"

Lin Wan smiled faintly and said, "But, does Master Taishi know the Seven Star Pill? Do you dare to eat the Seven Star Pill that King Dongli gave you? Also, Master Taishi knows how to take it? After detoxification, how can you recover your strength?"

Li Xingyu was stunned when he heard this, then took a deep breath, waved his hand, asked the guards to retreat, and slowly spoke: "What conditions do you want?"

Lin Wan shook his head and said, "We don't have any conditions, as long as Master Taishi's strength recovers, let us leave safely." ”

Li Xingyu secretly thought, this girl is still practical, nodded, and said, "Okay, you go back and wait first, and be ready to enter the palace with this official to get medicine at any time." ”

Zhou Tianqi and Lin Wan bowed and retreated, and both left Li Xingyu's study, their steps calm, seemingly fearless.

Li Xingyu stared at the backs of the two of them, with even more murderous intent in his eyes, and asked in a low voice, "Have you found out the details of the two of them?"

Huo Lun thought for a while, bowed down and replied, "Lord Qiqi, that girl is said to be an orphan girl bought back by Zhu Wuchang. The surname Zhou, there is no investigation of the origin, according to the investigation, he suddenly appeared in Lianbi City, and then went to the city lord's mansion to recommend himself, healed General Qi, and then became famous. ”

Li Xingyu thought for a while, and then asked, "You have been staring at them for the past few days, have you found any problems?"

Huo Lun hesitated a little, then shook his head and said, "The subordinates have always felt that Zhou Gongzi has a problem, but there is no evidence. Last night, his subordinates saw his appearance while he was bathing. His subordinates believed that he wore a mask mainly to hide his ugliness. However, his true appearance is very compatible with the Amu girl. ”

Li Xingyu felt a little surprised, but this result made him feel more at ease, thought about it, and asked, "Are you sure he didn't make up like that?"

Huo Lun shook his head and said, "The subordinates didn't see any flaws, and he was bathing at the time, and there was water on his hair and face, so it shouldn't have been drawn." ”

Li Xingyu nodded and said: "But it has been more than ten days since the Seventh Prince of the Great Sealing Kingdom left the envoy team, and we have not found his whereabouts, and the team is almost to Lianbi City, if he doesn't appear again, it will be impossible to say." ”

Huo Lun thought for a while and said, "My subordinates also suspected that he was the Seventh Prince, but according to the observations of my subordinates these days, the appearance, personality and behavior of the Seventh Prince and the Seventh Prince are completely different. It is said that the Seven Princes are handsome, arrogant, and not very feminine, and there is not even a woman by his side. And this Zhou Gongzi, his subordinates saw him eating and living with Miss Amu, washing, cooking, washing dishes, and brushing horses together, and the only woman's life was obeyed. ”

Li Xingyu pondered for a moment and said, "Make arrangements, enter the palace tonight and exchange the Seven Star Pill with King Dongli." ”

Huo Lun was shocked when he heard this, and asked hurriedly: "Lord, do you really want to exchange the border guards' talisman for the Seven Star Pill?"

Li Xingyu's fierce gaze swept towards Huo Lun, and said in a deep voice: "If this official can't recover his martial arts, what's the use of just having that talisman?" Xixi has been missing for two days, and there are no clues so far, and even those black-clothed people have disappeared without a trace. Those killers of the Shadowless Pavilion must have been invited by Jin Haoran, and they will come to the door again sooner or later, do you let this official sit back and die?"

Huo Lun was speechless by Li Xingyu's series of questions, lowered his head, and said with shame on his face: "My subordinates are derelict in their duties, please punish the lord!"

Li Xingyu took a deep breath, waved his hand, and said, "Suspend the punishment and strive to make meritorious contributions!"

"Thank you for giving your subordinates a chance, and your subordinates will definitely live up to their expectations!" Huo Lun bowed and retreated.

As soon as Zhou Tianqi and Lin Wan walked out of Li Xingyu's courtyard, they saw Bing'er standing outside the courtyard waiting, her expression was a little stunned, she didn't know what she was thinking, and she didn't even notice that Zhou Tianqi and Lin Wan had come closer.

"Bing'er, why are you here?" Lin Wan smiled slightly and asked softly.

When Bing'er heard this, she seemed to wake up suddenly, hurriedly lowered her eyes, and replied, "The slave is worried that Zhou Gongzi and Miss Amu don't know the way, so they will take the two back." ”

Lin Wan nodded, took Bing'er's hand, and said, "Bing'er has a heart, let's go back together." (To be continued.) )
