Volume VIII Chapter 131 An Invitation That Can't Be Refused
Before coming to Zhongnanshan, Ying Zheng maintained a high degree of vigilance against Qi Xiao.
When I first met Mi Xiao, I was still in the Cloud Wonderland. Later, Mo Wu'an destroyed the Cloud and Mist Wonderland, thinking that she would also die in it, but who knew that the gorgeous turn, not only did she not die, but she also became a person from Beigong.
According to Ying Zheng's understanding, Mi Xiao is very prestigious in Beigong, and his identity is second only to Gong Ming. The most important point is that she is also the protector of the negative, and it can be seen from the negative expression that he has great trust in Mi Xiao.
At the level of Yingzheng and Yin, with their status, it is difficult to trust a person. So if Ying Zheng wants to thoroughly explore the details of Mi Xiao, he must be cautious, if he doesn't get it right, he will catch fire, and Qin Chu will fight in advance, which is not what they want to see.
Seeing Mi Xiao coming, Ying Zheng, Ying, and Yan Dan had different expressions.
Ying Zheng's expression was indifferent, and he maintained a high degree of vigilance in his heart; The joy of negative slaughter hung on his face, there was a loophole in the lack of defense, and it happened that Mi Xiao came, so he was naturally happy; Yan Dan just smiled bitterly, guessing that Mi Xiao was here to invite the bearer.
Seeing that Yingzheng and Yingxiao didn't speak, Yan Dan smiled bitterly: "Miss Mixiao, come here tonight, you should have invited Brother Yingxiao." ”
Mi Xiao nodded, shook his head again, and said with a smile: "Prince Yan guessed right, but it's not all right, what's wrong?" Can inviting people also make you dissatisfied? ”
Yan Dan sighed and said, "It's not wrong to invite people, but I have a question, why did they all choose to invite tonight?" Our royal family was originally a group, and after a few invitations, the masters around us were dispersed one by one, and there was a hole in the defense. ”
Mi Xiao showed a surprised expression, inspected the room, and then said: "I didn't think about it when such a thing happened, but I had to come, because this is an order passed down by my senior sister." ”
"Tomorrow is the Sword Conference, and I always have to meet the King of Qin and the King of Chu in advance, so I came here tonight to invite the two kings. And made it clear to me that she was only familiar with Zhongli, and Anjou, Lilac, and Qiankui were not familiar with her, so please don't go over to those two families. ”
Yingzheng, Yingshu and others looked at each other, they really came to invite people, and the invitation was still their two kings. Zhongli was also in a trance, with their understanding of Chenxi, Chenxi could really give such an order. After all, during the ranch rebellion, Ying Ai's gambling compared her to her, and she was inevitably angry. Qiankui is a person from the Blood Fan Building, and Dawn is reluctant to get too close to the people of Scarlet Moon, such an invitation is indeed in line with Dawn's character.
Qi Xiao continued: "Senior Sister said, the reason why I didn't come to invite in person is mainly because there are too many people around the rivers and lakes, and the current Beigong Hall is mixed with fish and dragons, and God knows if there are any characters who chew their tongues indiscriminately. Regarding the intention of the two kings, she will give you a satisfactory answer tonight, otherwise she will not know how to cooperate with the royal family at tomorrow's conference. ”
"There is only one leader of the alliance, if the royal family is also involved, whether the king of Qin will do it or the king of Chu will be the king, and there must be some consultation in private. The army of Ganquan Palace is at the foot of the mountain, and Senior Sister doesn't want to cause anyone's displeasure, so this matter must be settled tonight. Otherwise, tomorrow with an oversight, the survival of my Beigong will become a problem. ”
Ying Zheng opened his mouth and couldn't say a word, because of this reason, he gave too much. They could understand Chenxi's mood, and they planned to meet in advance, but Zhao Ji's army went to the next stop of the mountain, they didn't care, but Chenxi cared, because none of the women of the Qin country were simple.
Ying Zheng, Zhong Li and the others also thought so, but they all thought wrong, that is, Chenxi was not worried about Zhao Ji at all, because Zhao Ji's two children were in the North Palace. Mi Xiao didn't know about this matter, so according to the normal person's thinking, he said this.
With these, Ying Zheng and Cheng Zheng couldn't refuse, and even Zhongli nodded. But Anru was dissatisfied, and said: "No, the king can't leave the four of us ten paces away, this is what my master specially explained." ”
Qi Xiao smiled bitterly: "It is because of your master that the senior sister passed down such an order, in this world, the only person who can make the senior sister deflated is Ying Ai of the Yiling Palace." This breath always has to be vented, not to mention that this is the North Palace, is it still necessary to look at the face of the Yiling Hall in his own home? ”
"King Qiqi, be sure to give my senior sister a face tonight, if you and the hall master Zhongli don't go tonight, with my understanding of the senior sister, I will definitely beat me up, and then send a thousand big brothers to invite me. If we don't invite us, we really don't know if the senior sister will go crazy, what is going on in her heart, we who are sisters really can't guess. ”
Zhongli said coldly: "With what I know about her, if you can't do what you explain, it's not just a beating, but a few years of grounding is the lightest punishment." Anyway, she is used to grounding others, and whoever does something wrong in Beigong will definitely be confined in Zhongnan Mountain. ”
Mi Xiao nodded violently and said: "It's still the hall master Zhongli who is right, I still have the task of protecting the King of Chu, if he is grounded, his safety will become Mi Xiao's biggest headache." ”
Anru hurriedly said: "We must follow wherever the king goes, if the protection is not effective, you will only be punished by grounding, and I and Lilac will be executed by my master." In everything I do in the Yiling Palace, I must act according to the rules that have been formulated for a long time, and I don't care what other forces think. ”
Qian Kui next to him echoed: "The rules of my Blood Fan Building are even stricter, if something happens to the son, not only will Qian Kui die, but the entire deputy ship must be buried." Only then can the girl not be angry. What is there to be for the leader of the Sword Conference, my family doesn't care, please let us follow. ”
Zhongli was silent, Chenxi's invitation was sincere and completely reasonable, and Anjou and Qiankui were also right, the rules of the two families were indeed more than any other force. So she can't speak for either side, it's right or wrong, it's all her wrong, she can only remain silent.
Ying Zheng thought about it carefully and felt that this trip must also give Chenxi this face. After all, she is a little woman, and she finally invites her to meet, and if she refuses again, she probably won't see herself again in the future.
Ying Zheng turned around and said, "Xiaokui, Xiaoru, Xiaoxiang, you all stay here." If the family asks, they will say that it is my order, and if I don't see the morning light, I will not be sure. ”
Anru was sweating profusely, and said hurriedly: "But ......"
Ying Zheng waved his hand and said, "Obedient." ”
Anjou couldn't talk anymore, Qiankui didn't say much at all, after taking care of her for so many years, she had already figured out Yingzheng's character. Especially when outsiders are present, it is necessary to give face to Yingzheng.
Qi Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, and finally succeeded in the invitation, but when he was about to take Negative Sum, Yingzheng, and Zhongli away, he was stopped by Yan Dan.
Yan Danyan said: "I have heard for a long time that the young palace master of the morning light is a famous fortune teller in the world, and this prince has been admired for a long time, even if there is no invitation from the young palace master, I want to go and admire the demeanor of the young palace master." Miss Mi Xiao's invitation to two people is also an invitation, and inviting three people is not a bad rule. If the young palace wants to punish you, all the responsibilities will be borne by the prince for you, you think it's good. ”
Qi Xiao's eyes widened, this plan was not intended to include Yan Dan, stay here, and there will be at least three masters to protect him. If he followed, with Zhongli's character, he would only protect Yingzheng alone, wouldn't he be afraid of being killed alone?
Qi Xiao's expression, Ying Zheng, Yingzheng, and Zhongli all saw it in their eyes, and they also understood the meaning. Even if he arrives at the place, Chenxi will not let Yan Dan enter the door, so Yan Dan will inevitably be alone. Now there are too many people in Beigong Jianghu, and there are definitely assassins in him, who died completely outside, who is responsible for this?
Yan Dan also understood, and said directly: "I don't have many days to be close to the two eldest brothers, this time I go to the young palace master, and it is estimated that we will not be able to meet until the conference opens." You don't have to worry about my safety, I think these two big brothers are still the safest. Even if the Young Palace Master abandons me outside the door, I don't think any assassin will dare to do anything at the Young Palace Master's door. If there really were assassins, they would be no different. ”
When such a call came out, several people didn't fold, and Yan Dan was determined to follow. In his heart, he didn't want to stay here, and now there are only the three maids of Yingzheng here, and they won't listen to their orders. It's okay if there is no thing, once something happens, he will definitely chase after Yingzheng immediately, where will he care about his life or death.
Mi Xiao thought about it, but nodded and said: "Since Prince Yan insists on following, Mi Xiao doesn't dare to stop him, but the ugly words are in front, in case there is an assassin, I will only protect the two kings, and I will not be able to protect you." ”
Yan Dan said: "Okay, the guest is as you please." ”
Mi Xiao walked out of the room with the three of them, walked towards the depths of the Beigong complex, and soon disappeared from the sight of the women.
Lilac jumped off the roof, entered the room, and said urgently, "How is this good?" The king is out of our protection, and if something happens, we can't explain it to our master. ”
Anjou was also helpless, the king's order could not be disobeyed, could he sit here and wait?
Qiankui said: "According to the rules of my family, Childe's orders must be obeyed, and we can't leave this house. But my sister Qianzi privately made another rule that if the son is out of my sight, she must send a signal and ask the family to send someone else to protect her. ”
With that, Chiaoi walked out of the room and jumped on the roof. Anjou and Lilac also jumped on the roof to see what Chiaoi was going to do.
Qiankui took out a small cylinder from her arms, untied the lid of the cylinder, and blew lightly on her small mouth, and a fragrance wafted into the distance. Anjou and Lilac looked closely, and the fragrance was condensed and drifted in one direction accurately. According to their estimates, that direction was the Blood Fan Building.
Sure enough, Qian Kui said: "This is the thyrime incense of our Blood Fan Building, and it is a means of communication, and the speed is extremely fast. Zhongnan Mountain is not far from Xuefan Tower, and in my estimation, Sister Qianzi will send another master to come. ”
Anru was also anxious just now, but now she calmed down, and also said: "Sister Lin Sheng is in Yihuan Courtyard, shooting the unique sound arrow of our Yiling Palace, with her voice transmission technique, she will definitely be able to sense it, and she will naturally send the sound to ask." ”
An arrow disappeared into the night sky, not only did Lin Sheng sense it, but the small card in the courtyard of the North Palace also looked at the three girls on the roof. He smiled bitterly at the three of them outside the house: "Mi Xiao's layout was successful, and he really deceived everyone in the royal family one by one, and made it impossible for the three top powerhouses to follow." ”
"This is a signal unique to my Yiling Palace, but unfortunately the senior sister has an order, and I can't leave the house. But I'm sure that the Yiling Hall will send a master soon, and I don't know who will send it. ”
Anru was right, Lin Sheng's transmission really reached Anjou's ears and asked, "Sister Anjou, what's the signal?" ”
Anjou whispered, "The king is out of our sight, and we cannot follow him, this is the king's own order. For the safety of the king, please let my sister let the master and send another master to come, the time should be fast, I estimate that within half an hour, the king will still be safe. ”
Lin Sheng said: "I understand, the king's order must be obeyed, I will be the princess, but several sisters can't sleep tonight, go back to the house, and keep the sound with me at all times." ”
The three girls replied at the same time: "Listen to my sister's voice." ”
After a while, a dark shadow came to the room, and the three girls showed surprised expressions when they saw the comer. The person who came was the grave, how could he come so quickly?
The tomb said: "The princess has an order, the Blood Fan Building will not send any masters, and I will take over the command of this place for the time being." The princess has said that she will be outside, and the military order will not be accepted, and I will consider whether to obey the king's order according to the priority of the matter. ”
"At the same time, the princess also said that she also said hello to Xuefanlou, and Miss Qiankui also needs to listen to me. I hope Childe is fine, once there is an accident, tomorrow at the Sword Conference, when the princess comes here, she will make the snow of the entire Zhongnan Mountain turn red. ”
