Hard to be a shadow guard

With a familiar face right in front of her eyes, Xuan Ying only felt dizzy for a while.

As if he couldn't believe what he saw with his own eyes, he shook his head fiercely, and when he looked again, the scene in front of him remained unchanged.

Xuan Ying became a little flustered after being dizzy: "Huang...Huang Mei?"

His voice was very soft, with a faint sense of powerlessness, and when the blood-soaked lips opened and closed, there was a tearing pain, and there were a few cracks on the corners of the lips.

Among the four shadow guards in Prince Rui's Mansion, Huang Mei and Xuan Ying have the best relationship.

This is not to say that the other two are at odds with Xuanying, it's just that Tianren has always been serious and reliable, and he is the head of all shadow guards, so Xuanying inevitably respects and fears him.

And Diren's medical skills are superb, and he has the demeanor of an out-of-the-world expert in dealing with people, that kind of demeanor that can be seen from a distance but not up close. Even if Diren took the initiative to talk, Xuanying felt inexplicably afraid to say more.

Only Huang Mei is not only about the same age as him, but also has that kind of detached and familiar personality, which is really rare among shadow guards. It's because the relationship with Huang Mei is getting closer.

But now...

When he was at his lowest and most embarrassing, everything about him was seen by this person who could be called a friend.

Xuanying moved her tingling fingertips, her throat parched dry.

Huang Mei surveyed all the surrounding scenes in a breath, whether it was the bamboo whip and stick at Xuanying's feet, or the various torture irons not far away, but in the end, his eyes still fell back on Xuanying.

Huang Mei paused for a moment: "Are you okay?"

When she asked the question, Huang Mei didn't wait for Xuan Ying to answer, she smiled first: "Look at me, I can see it with a clear eye, what is there to ask."

"It's all like this, it's no wonder it's good!" He muttered twice, and raised his head again with a smile on his face, but the red corners of his eyes made Xuanying feel uncomfortable for a moment.

"I'm fine..." Xuanying defended, perhaps because she knew that what she said was basically not credible, and what she said had no confidence.

He didn't want to waste time on such insignificant things, or it might just be embarrassing because of the current atmosphere. After a moment of hesitation, Xuan Ying spoke to others: "What about you? Why did you come here? "

It's not that the Lord doubts you!

The words that came to mind finally stopped before they could be spoken. After Huang Mei paused, the last thing she said changed: "My lord was worried that you might encounter an accident in Prince Liang's mansion, so he specially sent me to take a look. He said that if your situation It's too difficult, but I can help you go back..."

While talking, Huang Mei gradually lost her voice under those wryly smiling eyes.

Xuanying smiled wryly twice, and asked back: "Is the Lord suspicious?"

In a word!

Xuanying didn't believe Huang Mei's words at all, but after a little thought, she understood the originality of the matter.

But Xuan Ying really didn't know how he could see the master again, and facing Huang Mei, he couldn't control it: "You, you tell... I don't, my subordinates won't, there is no betrayal, really No!"

Xuan Ying spoke anxiously, originally she couldn't directly express her thoughts to the Lord, even if she defended to Huang Mei, she was worried that the other party would not be able to convey his meaning clearly.

Huang Mei just watched him struggle for a long time, and his speech became more and more incoherent. Even though he was grinning from the wounds on his body, he kept babbling non-stop.

"Go and help me explain to the Lord, no, there is no betrayal, there will never be betrayal..."

"Okay!" Xuanying didn't finish a sentence, Huang Mei finally couldn't bear it anymore, and interrupted him with a soft snort, frowning as if he didn't agree.

Xuanying looked at the other person's expression, and finally shut up embarrassingly.

Only then did he realize that there seemed to be something dripping from the top of his head, and Xuanying raised his eyes with difficulty to look, but unfortunately a drop of water was dripping into his eyes.

"Hmm—" Xuanying snorted, squinted his eyes and looked carefully for a long time, only to realize that the flesh on the wrist had been worn for a long time, and it was inevitable that the skin would be scratched, which caused the blood to drip .

After a moment of silence, Huang Mei sneered.

He just mocked, all the sadness and pity he had before were replaced by anger, the more he looked at Xuanying, the more aggrieved he had nowhere to vent.

"Are you stupid?" Huang Mei yelled angrily with a suppressed voice, "Is it really stupid to call you stupid every day? You really have no brains!"

"Yes! The Lord has an order! But since your task has made a mistake and cannot be completed, don't you know how to retreat?"

Huang Mei was so angry that she trembled all over, and wanted to go up to bandage Xuan Ying, but he didn't bring any healing medicine himself.

After a long while, he shook his hand violently, and finally gave up on going out to find medicine.

It was rare for Xuanying to see Huang Mei's emotions fluctuate like this, and he didn't dare to say anything for a while. After a long time, he just said dryly: "I'm fine."

"It's nothing!" Huang Mei retorted, very puzzled: "Didn't Tianren say that you came to be a pamper for King Liang, and you came to the dungeon? And what King Liang said was true? He found out... "

When Xuanying nodded slightly, Huang Mei was speechless.

"Tell me, before Liang Wang's people come over, what's going on between you and the Lord?"

Facing Huang Mei's question, Xuan Ying only felt that it was difficult to speak.

……

When the dark light outside gradually receded, Huang Mei took advantage of the moment when Prince Liang's mansion was handing over the secret servants, and quickly escaped from the secret room, took a detour, and finally left Prince Liang's mansion before dawn.

It's just that on the way back to the palace, Huang Mei's movements didn't seem to relax at all, and her speed was even faster than when she came here.

Since Xuanying is still maintaining the master, what about changing the master?

A faint hope arose in Huang Mei's heart: What if the Lord is merciful and is really willing to bring Xuanying back?

Even if reason tells him that the possibility of this is very small, but as long as he thinks of his brother who is still hanging in the secret room of Prince Liang's mansion, Huang Mei is not willing to give up this glimmer of hope.

He even had already thought about how to exaggerate without distorting the truth when he went back, deliberately and unobtrusively begged the Lord for mercy on Xuanying's behalf.

On the same day, Huang Mei stayed in Xie Yiqian's study for an entire hour, and when he went out again, he saw that the person who was used to endless vitality was shrouded in a layer of frustration.

But in King Narui's study, the man in Chinese clothes stood with his hands behind his back. After standing still for a while, his clasped hands had already been tightly clasped together, and his frowning brows were full of struggle and hesitation.

Xuanying...

I really don't know when, he can live as the only one for others.

With a sigh, Xie Yiqian sneered immediately, and flicked his sleeves, the firmness between his brows and eyes finally reappeared, and he called softly: "Tianren, come—"
