Chang'an [Rebirth]

Xian Yi squatted in the mud, did not speak for a long time, shook the lantern in his hand, and the candlelight finally penetrated into his eyes.

The dark clouds that had not dissipated gathered again, and it began to rain again in a blink of an eye.

It's just that the rain this time is very slow, and it falls on everyone's body.

Some of the guards who followed wanted to go up to hold an umbrella for the prince, but were stopped by the old man. The old man stood behind the young prince with an umbrella in his hand. Chai Zheng then rubbed against the umbrella, and also got under the umbrella.

Children are fragile and cannot withstand such wind and rain.

Chai Zheng now regards her young self as a piece of precious porcelain, she picks it up and puts it down carefully, otherwise, according to the way she made it before, she would die within two days of reincarnation.

After a while, Chai Zheng saw Ruan Linshuang shiver slightly, knowing that she was cold, she took Ruan Linshuang's hand, fortunately she was a small stove since childhood, rubbing Ruan Linshuang's fingers warm.

Only then did Xian Yi come back to his senses, he touched the hands of the two little girls, and sighed, "Why don't you say it's cold, it's about to get sick from the cold."

He took off his robe and put it on for the little girls, "Let's go back to the inn."

There are three towns on the outskirts of Chang'an, all of which are relatively small, and there are not many inns in total. The place where Xianyi lives is clean inside and out, but it is not popular, and the proprietress who guards her store is dozing off behind the counter.

The room is on the second floor, facing the square courtyard. There is a century-old sweet-scented osmanthus tree in the courtyard. Row tiles.

After entering the house, Chai Zheng felt a sense of security. The leaves rustled all around, and the windows were hidden in it. Each room was blocked by this huge sweet-scented osmanthus tree. Even with the windows open, it was difficult to see the opposite side. who.

Chai Zheng was a little worried holding a soft towel in her hand. This towel was a bit big for her now, and it was difficult to lift it up, and it would directly cover her entire face.

She could only sit by the bed and wait anxiously for Ruan Linshuang to wipe it off before helping herself, but it was still Xianyi who saw how pitiful she was and offered a helping hand first.

Xian Yi is not good at working, so the towel directly covered Chai Zheng's entire head from the neck up. After rubbing it, Chai Zheng's skin was burning and painful. protest.

Xian Yi was scratched alive by the kitten Chai Zheng, leaving bloodstains on his arms.

After it was almost dry, the kitchen served several bowls of hot ginger soup. There were not many guests in the inn throughout the year, so the kitchen was open to the outside world. Sometimes the yard and lobby were contracted out for weddings and weddings. Of course, you If you live here, you can also enter the kitchen to cook for yourself. As long as you have enough money, you can use whatever you want in the kitchen.

The other people's ginger soup was relatively strong, while Chai Zheng's and Ruan Linshuang's were much lighter. Even so, Chai Zheng stuck out his tongue, but Ruan Linshuang drank it down without changing his expression.

While drinking the warm ginger soup, Chai Zheng suddenly felt something was wrong.

Xianyi and Wu Hengluo obviously did not harbor any malice, and when they saw themselves, they both showed a certain degree of disappointment. Since there is no hope for the two babies to return to the country, they should send them back completely. Nothing?

Ruan Yuzhang will not talk about it, just because his parents can make a fuss, they can turn upside down the inside and outside of Chang'an City, and they will soon find the traces and chase them here.

Why, just because he did something immoral, he planned to surrender himself, change his past, and even let go of the big plan of revenge for the country?

What kind of prince and priest are you doing here? You can be a saint.

Although Chai Zheng had a good impression of these two people, he also knew that those who survived the rebellion would definitely not have pure hearts. They seemed to be just waiting here, and maybe they were waiting for a chance.

The little girl was so engrossed in thinking that her tongue was burned by the ginger soup. She hissed and raised her foggy eyes to pretend to be pitiful, "Sister, it hurts."

Ruan Linshuang put it in his own bowl, and came to check on Chai Zheng's "injury".

The burn was not serious, the tip of her tongue was a little red, Ruan Linshuang blew for her, "It's okay, it will be fine in a while."

Tears rolled in Chai Zheng's eyes, and she nodded her head pretending to be strong, "Yeah".

Now she has fully grasped the benefits of being a child, as long as she is well-behaved, sensible and strong in everything, it is a thousand times more useful than simply acting like a baby.

After gaining some attention from Ruan Linshuang, Chai Zheng shook her short legs, and even her mind opened up a lot.

Now there should be two groups of people following the little prince and the others. Apart from his own parents, King Keqin will not let it go.

Chai Zheng has always felt that King Keqin is a bit like Zhao Qian in essence. They both believe in the power of the emperor. In the coming year, this land will grow memory, and no grass will grow.

Since the old man was able to arrange a plan to rob people in Chang'an City, he and the little prince must have wasted a lot of time. Zhao Qian even caught the figure of the high priest, and even took time to intercept it in his busy schedule. King Keqin's side was limited. On the border between the two countries, it shouldn't be too much later than Zhao Qian.

What's more, Zhao Qian promised not to kill the high priest to silence him, but he could cause trouble and kill people with a knife.

Chai Zheng's ears moved suddenly, and under the rustling of leaves, she heard something that shouldn't belong here——

Well-trained footsteps, there were at least ten people, this sound stopped quickly, and they should have found their respective positions and surrounded the place.

Chai Zheng leads troops all the year round, and she knows all about these sneaky ambushes, she can even hear that these people are all armed, and none of them are from the Central Plains of Dajing.

The footsteps of these people are very strange, with a feeling of unconscious tiptoeing... There is a big difference between the movement of the front soles and the full soles of the feet, and Chai Zheng can't hear it wrong.

She was not the only one in the room, Wu Hengluo also heard it, but his experience was different from Chai Zheng's.

Wu Hengluo grew up as a goblin, and lived in Musang for most of his life. He knew earlier than Chai Zheng that this was the wine offering place directly under King Keqin.

The so-called sacrificial wine department, full-time intelligence and assassination, only obeys the dispatch of King Keqin alone, and their identities are secret. Even if the operation fails and they are arrested, it is difficult to investigate any clues. Cultivation, in addition to being strong in martial arts, everyone has the will to die and is extremely difficult to deal with.

After a while, there was another commotion in front of the inn. Chai Zheng saw the flash of a knife outside the window. The group of people who were about to make a move before were not sure where the commotion came from, so they regained their composure.

They don't know, but Chai Zheng's heart is like a mirror——

It was her own parents who killed her.

The old man had a good plan and drove the wolf away. He wanted to use himself as a bargaining chip to get the two sides to fight and get out.

"Oh." Chai Zheng sneered in his heart, "The old man really has a thick skin for daring to play tricks like this in front of me."

Immediately, Chai Zheng raised his eyebrows arrogantly again, "Amitabha, he probably doesn't know Chai Guogong, I hope the old man won't set himself alight by playing with fire."

Just as Chai Zheng finished thinking, she lost her mind and wanted to watch a big show, when her father's humble and polite voice came from downstairs, "Please listen to the gangsters upstairs, my son is delicate and expensive, and it costs a hundred taels of silver to eat." The abalones and sea cucumbers are worn with silk embroidered with gold thread. If you can afford them, you can take them away and return the little girl from the Ruan family. If you can’t afford them, it’s better to return them to the original owner. , you must be at a loss."

is this man?

Chai Zheng still had some nostalgia, "It's my real father."

Seeing that there was no movement from above, Chai Yuandao continued his efforts, "If you don't believe me, I still have a bill here that records the expenses in detail. If my daughter is poorly raised, she will die young."

"This sentence is biased." Chai Zheng thought to himself, "You will smoke me from now on, and you will leave me alone in the wasteland in Mobei when you were eleven or twelve years old. Fresh water?"

The people of Musang country have their own language, even the old man, they all speak the Central Plains dialect with a distinct accent, only the little prince is probably from elementary school, so it is better.

Therefore, most of the assassins outside couldn't understand what Chai Yuandao was bluffing about. It's just that Chai Yuandao has a natural charm. Even if he just casually commented that the tea is good, it is enough to make people feel afraid of giving him both the tea and the tea shop. .

For a while, none of the three waves dared to act rashly.

The inn lobby and rooms are all okay, at least there are four walls and a roof, but the people waiting outside are not so comfortable.

It rains every once in a while, and the window frames, roofs, and tree trunks are all wet and slippery. It is not easy to maintain balance. Even an expert will feel tired after lying down for an hour or two. Seep in clothes.

Musang Country is warm all year round, and its physique is different from that of people in the Central Plains. It may be because they are afraid that they will lose their combat effectiveness after being frozen for a while, and the dark shadows outside finally move.

Chai Zheng rubbed Ruan Linshuang's ear and said, "Let's hide under the bed."

Although Ruan Linshuang realized that the atmosphere was not right, it was a pity that she did not have the experience of Chai Zheng and the ability to see all directions and hear all directions. Just as she was about to ask what was wrong, a thin knife came towards her, and the edge of the knife pierced her ear. If Chai Zheng hadn't played so fast, Ruan Linshuang would have lost half of his ears.

She took advantage of the trend and dragged Chai Zheng to roll under the bed. In terms of desire to survive, Chai Zheng was willing to bow down at this moment.

The balance of the situation has just been broken, the people below think that the gangsters are red-eyed and want to kill and take revenge, and the masked people think that the prince has reinforcements, regardless of three or seven, as long as they are dressed differently, they will be beaten to death.

Hearing the crackling sound above his head, Chai Zheng took out two pastries from his pocket, "I got them in the lobby of the inn, sister, do you want to eat?"
