Double Bi

The last city, as the name suggests, is the last city in the north of the Daxuan Dynasty. There is an endless stream of caravans going to and from the pass, and the mixed fish and dragons are very easy to deceive.Twenty miles to the west of the city is the place where Qi Yuan disappeared.

Song Xun and his entourage—he, Zhao Ye, and two secret guards of Chu Palace—turned into a caravan and entered the end city smoothly.

When they first came here and were unfamiliar with the place, the two secret guards of Prince Chu's Mansion—Ajiu and Li Xiang quickly grabbed a guide.

"Take us to the best inn in the city." Ah Jiu said, and took some broken silver for the greasy middle-aged guide in front of him with a smile on his face.

"Yes, come with me, come with me!" The guide showed a flattering attitude.

"Fight!—" Ah Jiu started to drive and followed the guide leisurely.

Inside the carriage, the faces of both of them were not very good.

Song Xun was still in poor health, but Zhao Ye...was a bit hard to describe...Because Song Xun, who was sick, stopped and stopped all the way, and was delayed for a long time, otherwise Zhao Ye would at least be able to Arrived at the end city ten days ago.And along the way, Song Xun fully demonstrated his "talent". If Zhao Ye didn't know that this person surnamed Song was useful to him, let alone halfway, he probably would have kicked Song Xun out of the car before he even set off.

"It's here!"

Song Xun got off the carriage first.

The cold wind blew "whoosh—" and Song Xun coughed several times.

Then Zhao Ye got off the carriage expressionlessly, looked at the inn for a while, and frowned.

Song Xun was not pampered like Zhao Ye, and walked into the inn.

The clerk was busy with work, when a waiter saw Song Xun and his party, he rushed over immediately, bowed his head, and said, "Please, please, please."

Others may not be able to see some details, but Song Xun can.He clearly saw calluses on the hands of the clerks in this inn.It is normal to have cocoons, but the position of the cocoons is very abnormal. They are obviously people who practice martial arts all year round!

Zhao Ye also found out that something was wrong with the guides, and wanted to run away after bringing them here?Ah Jiu's knife was already on the guide's neck.

"Run away! Run away if you have the ability, why don't you run away?" Ah Jiu's condescending expression made Song Xun think of a word called "bullying others".

Song Xun also became a little interested, walked towards the guide for a while, and said, "Take us to the black shop, you are not so brave!"

Compared with Ah Jiu, although Song Xun looked sickly, he was really scared.

On the other side, the clerks in the inn all started to fuck and rushed towards them. Ah Jiu immediately tapped the guide's acupuncture point, and joined Li Xiang in the battle.

Song Xun took a few steps back, watching the battle with great interest.

Although Ah Jiu and Li Xiang were not experts, after all, the Chu Palace did not accept everyone. The two suffered some injuries, but fortunately they beat a group of people to the ground.

"The shopkeeper is gone."

"Found it." Zhao Ye turned around and told Li Xiang, "Go and investigate."

"Yes."

Ah Jiu was about to untie the guide's acupoint and take it back for interrogation, but Song Xun interrupted: "It's useless to keep it, kill it."

Seeing that Zhao Ye didn't object, Ah Jiu drew his knife and stabbed the guide's vitals...

The three were about to leave, but a woman rushed towards Song Xun like crazy, grabbing Song Xun's clothes tightly.

"You killed my husband! Even if I were a ghost, I wouldn't let you go!..."

Song Xun kicked him away, looked at Ah Jiu with a smile, and said, "He killed the man, so don't pester me."

"..."

Ah Jiu: What a big pot!

A group of people left, leaving only the woman roaring in place.

After something like this happened, everyone would definitely not be able to stay in the last city as a caravan, so Zhao Ye approached the county magistrate, and after showing his token to the county magistrate, he said that he was His Highness the King of Fengchu. order to go out to investigate the case.

……

The county magistrate has issued a letter...

……

In the room, Zhao Ye put his hand on his forehead, closed his eyes and rested his mind, while Song Xun played chess alone.

Song Xun held the stove in one hand, lightly picked up a white jade chess piece with the other hand, and said, "Two groups of people. Not King Qi, not Xiang Liu."

The first sentence refers to two groups of people who were responsible for today's inn incident and the robbery of Qi Yuan, and the latter sentence refers to the people behind the two incidents, neither King Qi nor Xiang Liu.

After all, the pawn fell.

Zhao Ye didn't answer.

"King Qi's power is mostly in the south, and his sphere of influence is not enough to worry about. It is really difficult for him to extend his hand to the north to deal with you, Your Highness, King Chu. Looking at Liu Xiang again, he is not stupid. Qi Yuan is like him The only value is that Your Highness wants to get him. The assassination of Your Highness a few times was mostly a temptation. With his prudence, he would never shoot rashly, watching himself "missteps and eternal hatred". Of course, the relationship between Liu Xiang and King Qi It is very possible that some agreement was reached, but it has nothing to do with this matter. His Highness just wanted to use Qi Yuan's testimony to repay the innocence of Concubine Qi. There must be a third party behind this, setting up a trick."

After talking so much in one breath, Song Xun felt his throat was a little dry, so he picked up the teacup and drank it all in one gulp.

"Young Master Song seems to know this king's younger brother and our prime minister very well."

Song Xun raised the corner of his mouth and said: "The enemy is in the dark, but I am in the light. The hand behind this is probably more difficult to deal with than you and I imagined."

"Knowing that this is a dead game, will His Royal Highness still want to play?" Song Xun picked up a chess piece from the chess box and walked straight to Zhao Ye.

The sound of the chess pieces falling to the ground was very crisp.

Zhao Ye opened his eyes.

"Since I guessed it, why didn't I say it?"

"Pavilion Master Song."

Yunsheng Pavilion is well-known in Jianghu and even in the imperial court, spies are all over the world, collecting all kinds of information, it can be said that it knows everything, knows everything.Naturally, it is not enough to rely on spies alone to achieve this level. People from all walks of life can also go to Yunsheng Pavilion to exchange information, as long as you are willing to provide other information-Yunsheng Pavilion has it, or it doesn't.And Song Xun was the pavilion master who had never shown his face.

Today's woman is the person from Yunsheng Pavilion, who sent the information into Song Xun's hands while grabbing Song Xun's clothes.

"If Zi Yang says that it's just the tip of the iceberg, and my true face in Mount Lu has not been revealed, will your Highness believe it?"

As the candlelight flickered, Zhao Ye felt that the smiling young man in front of him was more unfathomable than he thought...

he believe. !

"If Your Highness wants to uncover the mystery, you can go to Mobei." When he said the word "Mobei", the smile on Song Xun's face disappeared, and his expression was serious.

"If you leave the Mo city, you will no longer be within the sphere of influence of this king. Is Pavilion Master Song jumping into the fire pit of this dynasty?"

Although he said so verbally, he has already decided to go to Mobei.

Song Xun coughed a few times, and said: "It is indeed dangerous to go to Mobei, but Ziyang believes that His Highness will be blessed and fateful, and he will be able to turn the danger into safety and return to Chu Palace safely."

"..."

"Your Highness, you can rest assured that Zi Yang will never hurt your heart. I help His Highness, I have my own plan, and I, Song Xun, will never do business at a loss."

"This king is quite curious about what Pavilion Master Song wants."

"One mouthful and one Song Pavilion master, how unfamiliar! Anyway, Zi Yang is also someone who has been drugged by His Highness, can't he be more kind?"

"A Xun."

"..."

Song Xun almost spit out a mouthful of old blood on the spot, but the key is that he, Zhao Ye, was able to call out without changing his face! ! ! ?

The smile on Song Xun's face twitched.

"Hehehe, it's really kind..."

……

Back then, Concubine Shu wanted to harm the queen and Zhao Ye's mother and son, but it was Concubine Qi who saved Zhao Ye's life. Zhao Ye, who was only four years old, watched his mother and queen die in front of him.After the queen's death, Concubine Qi raised Zhao Ye and taught him the Four Books and Five Classics.Later, just because Zhao Ye was the eldest son, Concubine Shu personally killed her own child and put the blame on Concubine Qi, who died of injustice.Zhao Ye began to live alone in the cracks of the harem, and became decisive...

A ruthless person has more love than anyone else...

"Your Highness really intends to go to Mobei?" Song Xun didn't know why praying for a concubine was so important to Zhao Ye.

Although Zhao Ye didn't say anything, Song Xun saw the answer.

"Since His Highness wants to go by himself, that's the best. Zi Yang can't bear the crime of persecuting the prince."

"Then His Highness is good to rest."

After finishing speaking, Song Xun turned and left...

Zhao Ye watched Song Xun's voice gradually disappear before his eyes as the door closed...
