Chapter 154 Xiao Sheng Visits
When Xiao Muke's figure walked away, the person who had a weak face just now had returned to his usual coldness. When Chun Sheng saw him, he immediately invited him: "Your Highness, did I cooperate well just now?"
Xiao Ji glanced at him anxiously: "If you don't even have this bit of vision, then it would be in vain for me to bring you here from Dayan all the way!"
Chunsheng stuck out his tongue: "Then is your Highness going in now?"
Xiao Jiwei looked into the room, and could vaguely see the slender figure behind the desk, the corner of his mouth curled up: "Let's go to the study."
Chunsheng understood and immediately pushed him away.
As soon as the two of them arrived at the study, Zhang Yuan suddenly came to report that it was King Gaoyang who had come.
"Brother?" Xiao Jiwei raised his eyebrows, a little surprised.
Since he came to Beihan, the number of times he has seen this elder brother can be counted on the fingers. Xiao Sheng is not in good health, and has been kept in the palace all the time. Li Cheng, the time Beihan Emperor brought Xiao Sheng to see him, other than that, the two had no interaction.
Didn't expect Xiao Sheng to come to his mansion, why?
Xiao Jiwei was suspicious, and told Zhang Yuan: "Please invite him!"
As soon as the words fell, people came to the courtyard.
Wearing a white cloak, Xiao Sheng walked slowly towards the study room accompanied by his guard Hu Dun. His complexion was pale, and his steps were slow and frivolous. He could tell at a glance that he was a chronically ill person. When he saw Xiao Jiwei, he smiled slightly and stretched out his hand : "Meet the prince!"
"Brother, don't be too polite!" Xiao Jiwei hastily stretched out his hand to help him, "Brother is not in good health, why did you make a special trip here? If you need something, just give me an order, and I'll go see you."
A smile appeared on the man's pale face: "My brother, why do you need to see outsiders? I came here because I heard that an assassin was encountered in the house the day before yesterday. Are you okay? Are you... injured in your leg?"
Seeing the bandages wrapped around Xiao Jiwei's legs, Xiao Sheng frowned.
"It's just a few flesh wounds, it's okay!" Xiao Jiwei ordered Chunsheng, "Go and pour some tea."
Xiao Sheng sat down, took the tea from Chunsheng and smelled it, and said with a smile, "Dayan's tea is really fragrant."
"Brother likes it, as long as you like it, if you are not used to drinking it, I will make someone serve kumiss."
Xiao Sheng shook his head: "I am weak and never drink alcohol, this kumiss is very good."
He took a sip before looking at Xiao Jiwei again.
Xiao Jiwei knew that he would not come to the Prince's Mansion for no reason, and there must be something wrong this time, so at this moment, he quietly waited for him to speak with a smile.
After staring at him for a while, Xiao Sheng put down the tea and said slowly: "The news of the assassination of the Prince's Mansion has been raging a lot in the past few days. Although I don't go out often, I have heard some. Can anyone find out who did it?"
Xiao Jiwei shook his head: "These assassins are very cunning. Once they are caught, they will take poison and commit suicide first. To this day, there are still no useful clues."
Xiao Sheng pondered for a moment: "You have to be careful. If these people fail to assassinate, they will definitely have other actions. You are new to Beihan, and you don't understand the danger of this group of people. They will not stop until they achieve their goals, so in the future On such a day, you must be careful, not only guard against the light, but also guard against the dark!"
Xiao Ji narrowed his eyes and looked at him: "They? Brother, do you know who they are?"
"I don't know." Xiao Sheng shook his head, but there was a bit of sadness on his face, "Although I don't know who they are, I know that they are cruel and ruthless. Lu, that's why you became their target as soon as you entered Beihan, and you were hunted down all the way!"
There is clearly something in these words.
Xiao Jiwei stared at him: "Elder brother was also assassinated before?"
"Oh," the corners of Xiao Sheng's mouth curled up slightly, somewhat mockingly, but he didn't answer Xiao Jiwei's words, "I'm weak, so I can't come out for too long. Seeing that you're fine, I'm relieved!"
Xiao Sheng stood up, bowed slightly towards Xiao Jiwei, then coughed, turned and left.
Hu Dun immediately stepped forward, wrapped the cloak around him tightly, and helped him leave the study.
Sitting in a wheelchair, Xiao Jiwei looked at the backs of the two leaving, frowning thoughtfully.
"Why is this King Gaoyang so weird? He doesn't know what he's trying to express without beginning or end!" Chunsheng couldn't help but speak.
After hearing this, Xiao Jiwei was silent for a moment, then looked at Zhang Yuan who was at the side: "What do you think?"
"King Gaoyang seems to know who the assassin is!"
"It seems that you have heard it." Xiao Jiwei looked outside, "No matter what purpose he came here for, but there is one thing that is right, we have to guard against it no matter whether it is clear or dark!"
"The prevention and control of the Prince's Mansion has been re-deployed. As for His Highness's safety, this subordinate will personally follow His Highness around!"
Xiao Jiwei shook his head: "Don't be distracted by the things entrusted to you. As for my side, I have already chosen someone."
In the room, Wen Xun'er was terribly tired.
Xiao Jiwei didn't know where he went, so he left a servant girl to be alone with him. That servant girl knew that she was a practitioner at first glance. When she changed her bondage just now, her hand strength was stronger than hers. It was probably the same as Hongying's martial arts high strength.
"What's your name?"
"Slave Qing Ran."
Wen Xun'er stared at her.
This girl is not tall, she is older than Hongying, she should be in her 20s, she looks calm and stable, not very talkative.
"Qingran, come here and massage my waist, it's so sore!"
Her entire upper body was tied to the wheelchair, and she sat in the same position all morning, not to mention how uncomfortable it was, but now her back hurts.
Hearing this, Qing Ran stepped forward and massaged her carefully.
"Why don't you untie it for me and let me move around by myself? To save you having to knead it for me!"
Close at hand, the little girl's skin is very good, although it is a bit dark, but young and young, it is outrageously tender.
Qingran smiled slightly: "Princess Concubine, it is His Highness's order to tie you up, if you want to be untied, His Highness's order!"
Wen Xun'er rolled his eyes, and was about to say something when he suddenly felt darkness in the room, looked up, and saw Chun Sheng pushing Xiao Jiwei in.
Wen Xun'er looked away, not wanting to look at him.
"Untie her and let someone pass the meal."
Qing Ran responded, and immediately untied the rope on Wen Xun'er's body.The moment she regained her freedom, Wen Xun'er immediately stretched her muscles and became stiff all morning. Not to mention her back, her butt was numb!
She supported the table and stood up, moving her whole body, seeing Xiao Jiwei's eyes looking over, she immediately snorted coldly and turned her face away.
The servants had already brought in the food, Xiao Jiwei sat at the dining table and called her: "Eat, watch after eating."
After Wen Xun'er finished her activities, she sat back in the wheelchair and let Qingran push her to the dining table.
She didn't care whether Xiao Jiwei moved her chopsticks or not, she just picked up the bowl and ate. Qingran took a look and didn't speak, but her expression changed slightly, but Chun Sheng who was at the side got used to it and served Xiao Jiwei the dishes.
