When the prince is reborn, he will only hit me if he doesn't hit the wall!
Chapter 144: Encountering Shi Hong
In a deserted place, two figures stood facing each other.
The gazes of the two were as cold as arrows, colliding with each other in the silent corner, creating invisible sparks.
Qin Jizhao was the first to break the silence: "What is the meaning of your actions today?"
Qin Zhaolie sneered: "At this point, you are still acting. You really deserve to be my elder brother! How could I forget that in front of that position, there is no such thing as brothers?"
"Qin Zhaolie, I have never done that." Qin Jizhao put away his usual dandy look and explained to Qin Zhaolie righteously.
"Don't fall for other people's divisive tactics!"
"What about the Jade Order? Is there anyone else who knows about this besides you and me? "
Qin Jizhao stretched out three fingers and swore to the sky: "I really don't know about the Jade Order, but heaven and earth are my witnesses that I have never given it to anyone else."
"Humph, Qin Jizhao, do you think I will believe your mere oath?"
Qin Zhaolie had no intention of listening to his excuses and turned away angrily.
Looking at Qin Zhaolie's receding back, Qin Jizhao knew full well that he had been tricked. His eyes were fierce and he cursed silently in his heart.
"Asshole, if I find out who did this, I will tear him into pieces!"
Intensive thunder echoed in the air, one after another.
Raindrops as big as beans fell rapidly under the reflection of lightning like a curtain of beads. On the hillside, gravel of varying sizes continued to roll down.
"Girl, please leave here quickly. This 'rock flood' is too dangerous. The collapse of the soil and rocks on the hillside is no joke!"
"Uncle, please help me, save my dad, help me!"
Xu Xinyue's body was completely soaked by the heavy rain, her messy hair stuck tightly to her cheeks, drops of rain slid down her pale cheeks, blending with her tears, her bright and moist eyes were full of pleading.
He grabbed the sleeve of a villager who came to rescue him and said, "Uncle, please help me save my father. He is still in there. I have money. I will give you a lot of money--"
"Hey! Girl, it's not that I don't want to help you, but look at the rocks and mud in front of you. How could your father still... Oh! Please accept my condolences, girl!"
As he said this, he shook his head with regret and went to clear the blocked road ahead.
Xu Xinyue almost lost her strength and collapsed. Xiao Shu and Xiao Chan hurriedly supported her on either side, also in tears, begging her: "Miss, let's go back first. Master, Master--"
They wanted to comfort Xu Xinyue by saying that Xu Yuanshan would be fine, but when they looked at the mountain road ahead that was blocked by boulders and mud, they realized that they couldn't even fool themselves, so how could they fool Xu Xinyue?
Xu Xinyue's eyes were dazed, still unwilling to accept this fact. She and her father had caught wild animals and picked wild fruits on the roadside at noon, and they had agreed to eat hotpot at the next post station...
How come it suddenly became like this!
Daddy's carriage was just ahead of hers, just a few feet away, how could it be!
Xu Xinyue was too weak to stand up and could only kneel there, supporting herself with her hands, staring blankly at the pile of rocks and soil.
Her father might be in there.
"Miss Xu, how are you? Why don't you go back to the carriage? We are here! We have already reported to the authorities, and they will be here soon!"
Qingguang and Qinghong were the two secret guards left by Qin Yuechuan. The incident happened suddenly, and the two had not yet arrived to send a pigeon to Qin Yuechuan.
This is considered a mountain road, and the road is built along the mountain, with a mountain on one side and a steep slope on the other. It was originally sunny at noon, but it started to rain heavily once we entered the mountain road. Halfway through the journey, Xu Yuanshan decided to pass through this section quickly, but something unexpected happened and he encountered a "stone flood"!
When Xu Xinyue, who was following behind, got out of the carriage, he saw this scene.
Qingguang half-knelt in front of Xu Xinyue and wanted to help her go back.
Xu Xinyue shook her head and grabbed his clothes with both hands: "Qingguang, can you please go to the bottom of the slope to have a look? I didn't see my father buried with my own eyes. Maybe he was just washed down the slope by the rocks. I beg you to help me take a look."
Xu Xinyue's long eyelashes were soaked by the rain, and she forced her eyes open to look at him: "Qingguang, go and take a look, please, go and take a look..."
Qingguang knew that there was little hope, but seeing her like that he couldn't bear to refuse, so he nodded, turned around and talked a few words with Qinghong, then leaped to the bottom of the slope.
Qinghong stepped forward and helped her up: "Miss Xu, let's go back to the carriage first. We need to conserve our energy. We may be trapped here for a while. Are you hungry?"
At this moment, Xu Xinyue's mind was only filled with Xu Yuanshan's safety. She didn't care whether he was hungry or thirsty. She just shook her head woodenly.
Qinghong finally helped her back to the carriage, wrote a short letter, and released the carrier pigeon.
"In this weather, I wonder if His Majesty can receive it."
He muttered to himself, turned around and joined the group of villagers in clearing the dirt and rocks.
He hoped to find something to give Xu Xinyue some comfort, but he also hoped that he would find nothing, as that way there was still hope.
Thousands of miles away, is Prince Rong’s Mansion.
Qin Yuechuan planned to review all recent memorials as quickly as possible, arrange follow-up matters, and prepare to set off as soon as possible.
Qingyang reported: "Your Highness, it seems that Prince Qi and Prince Yu have a rift. Yesterday, our people saw them talking in private and they ended up parting on bad terms. Our plan to sow discord between them has succeeded."
Qin Yuechuan didn't even raise his head, and kept writing: "It's not completely successful yet, don't take it lightly, Qin Jizhao hasn't given up yet, so we need to add fuel to the fire.
Keep an eye on Qin Jizhao's movements, and report to me immediately if anything unusual happens."
Qing Yang wanted to ask something else, but suddenly Qing Feng's anxious voice came from outside the door: "My Lord, there's a pigeon with a message from Miss Xu!"
"Come in!"
Qin Yuechuan had a bad feeling when he heard his tone.
He put down his pen, stood up, and walked towards Qingfeng. He took the three-finger-wide note with a serious look on his face. He quickly glanced at it and suddenly his expression changed drastically: "The plan has changed. Qingyang and Qingming will leave with me immediately. Qingfeng will handle the follow-up matters and follow up quickly!"
Qingyang asked, "What happened to the prince?"
Qin Yuechuan handed him the note, and Qingyang was also shocked after reading it: "Something happened to Miss Xu!"
