Seven Chapters of Facial Paralysis

Chapter 43 The Eve of Rescue

It was early morning when Tang Wuxun went back, but Hua Manlou and Jin Jiuling were still waiting for him in his room.

After hearing what he said about the situation there, Jin Jiuling stood up immediately, "I'll send more people to keep an eye on that place!" Although he was handicapped, Thirteen Niang sent a servant to accompany him. Anything is possible.

After he left, the room immediately fell silent.

Tang Wuxun felt a little strange, looked up at Huamanlou, but found that he was in a daze, so he had to call him, "Qitong, why are you in a daze? You should go back to sleep."

Now Huamanlou can't help but blush every time he hears him calling his name in that deep and pleasant voice, because that night he dreamed that this person kept calling in such a voice while hugging him. own name...

He felt a little nervous all over, so he had no choice but to pinch his palms to calm himself down, said goodnight to Tang Wuxun in his usual manner, and went back to his room.

He thought he was covering it up very well, but Tang Wuxun is such a keen and careful person, he could see his nervousness at a glance, and he couldn't help but feel a little sad-since that night, he has always been like this, not only when facing himself I'm very nervous, and sometimes I deliberately distance myself from myself. Although sometimes I can't help but treat myself like before, but I shrink back immediately after realizing it.It was as if after the tacit eye contact with the Snake King last time, he also avoided his gaze after a while.

Such a situation was originally what Tang Wuxun wanted, but when he really saw it, he still felt very uncomfortable, and he didn't understand what Hua Manlou was thinking, could it be so hard to accept that he liked him?

With this kind of sadness, he fell asleep half asleep until the next morning, and did not wake up until he heard Lu Xiaofeng knock on the door.

Lu Xiaofeng was anxious to find him because of Xue Bing.Ever since Xue Bing ran away in anger that day, and they didn't see her back until they left Yangcheng, Lu Xiaofeng looked for her everywhere, but in the end he only received a letter from someone she entrusted, which said "It's better to forget each other in the rivers and lakes" In short, Lu Xiaofeng was dumped by her.

But how could Lu Xiaofeng believe such words?Lu Daxia has never been dumped by a woman before!He felt that something must have happened to Xue Bing, but at that time they were leaving Yangcheng immediately, so he couldn't continue looking for her.Until this morning, he suddenly remembered that when he and Tang Wuxun went to the West Garden, Tang Wuxun seemed to have said something about Xue Bing.

He managed to get Tang Wuxun out, and followed him to the front for breakfast. On the way, he hurriedly explained why he was looking for him, and before he got to the dining room, he hurriedly asked, "Brother Tang." , Why did you say that she might not appreciate it when I went to her? You knew at that time that she would not appear again?".

Tang Wuxun nodded, "When we captured Aunt Gongsun, Xue Bing was on the tree nearby."

Lu Xiaofeng stood up abruptly, "Why didn't you tell me then?"

"She doesn't want to see you, so what's the use of me telling you?" Tang Wuxun said, "Besides, she behaves very abnormally, I don't want to put danger on my side."

Lu Xiaofeng stared at him angrily for a while, then sighed, "So you can see it too."

Xue Bing lost his temper and left after he said he was going to find Aunt Gongsun, and he left in a hurry, as if losing his temper was just an excuse for her to leave there. What's even more strange is that he fought with Aunt Gongsun At that time, she was actually watching from the tree next to her. With her aggressive personality, it was really strange to see her lover not come out to help when he was in danger.

"You mean that Xue Bing has something to do with Aunt Gongsun?" Hua Manlou asked suspiciously, "What kind of relationship would make her abandon Lu Xiaofeng like this? I think she still likes Lu Xiaofeng very much."

Lu Xiaofeng muttered in dissatisfaction: "What is abandonment..."

Since Aunt Gongsun has been locked in a dungeon with six doors—and she also took a special Sangong pill made by Tang Wuxun, she will lose her internal energy within a month—and everyone still has important things to do. So whether Xue Bing had something to do with Aunt Gongsun was put aside by them.

When everyone was having breakfast, Lu Xiaofeng told them about his experience in the early morning of this morning.He went to bed so early last night to get up early this morning to find his good friend Li Yanbei in the capital, because Li Yanbei would bring a large group of people down the street every morning to train them while taking a walk in the morning.As a result, when he found Li Yanbei this morning, Li Yanbei was being assassinated. After he rescued him, he realized that the assassin of Li Yanbei was most likely Du Tongxuan, another big boss in the capital, because Li Yanbei They made a bet with Du Tongxuan, using each other's territory as a bet on who would win the battle between Ximen Chuuxue and Ye Gucheng.Li Yanbei gambled on Ximen Chuuxue, and Du Tongxuan gambled on Ye Gucheng.

Originally, Du Tongxuan didn't need to assassinate Li Yanbei like this, because he thought that he was very sure, and Li Yanbei's territory would definitely be won by him, but yesterday afternoon, it was reported that Ye Gucheng was poisoned by Tang Tianyi, the Tang family in the middle of Sichuan. Well, this news came from an honest monk who is known for "never telling lies".Of course Du Tongxuan didn't want his territory to fall into Li Yanbei's hands like this, that's why he made a dangerous move to assassinate Li Yanbei.

After Lu Xiaofeng rescued Li Yanbei, he went to drink tea with Li Yanbei, but met Ye Gucheng in the teahouse. Ye Gucheng didn't seem to be poisoned at all, and he easily defeated Shu Tang Tianrong of the Zhongtang family.

Tang Wuxun couldn't help trembling when he heard about the Tang family in the middle of Shu, but he calmed down immediately and asked, "Will Ye Gucheng participate in the southeast palace's rebellion?"

"Huh?" Lu Xiaofeng opened his mouth wide in surprise and shook his head again and again, "No way! How could such a high-minded person care about such mundane things?"

"Don't forget, the son of the southeast prince is his favorite disciple," Tang Wuxun sneered, "and if this matter has nothing to do with him, why did he set the duel at the Forbidden Summit? Where is the Forbidden Summit? It's on top of the Emperor's Hall of Supreme Harmony."

Jin Jiuling's face changed, and he murmured: "Then if he wants to stab the driver, wouldn't it be easy?"

He suddenly slapped the table and said angrily: "It was already disrespectful for them to set the duel venue on the top of the Hall of Supreme Harmony. If they were not the two most powerful masters in the world, the emperor would not be so indulgent because of their fear of their strength. They!" After all, he is an official, and his official position is not small, so he is still very angry about this kind of thing.

Hua Manlou cleared his throat, and said: "Actually, you don't have to be so angry. With Ximen Chuixue around, Ye Gucheng is busy enough just to duel with him, and he definitely has no time to do other things. I will definitely help the Southeast Palace to do such a rebellious thing."

Jin Jiuling still had a gloomy face and asked people to write down their guesses and send them to Wei Ziyun, the commander of the inner guards, to let him decide whether to strengthen the security in the palace.

At this moment, the person he sent out to watch the courtyard where the Southeast King stayed returned, "My lord, the courtyard is in chaos, and the guards in the courtyard are looking for people everywhere."

Naturally, what they were looking for were those few people who were melted down by Tang Wuxun with the corpse water last night.

To say that these people are unlucky enough, the guards are so strict, and no outsiders are seen coming in and out, let alone those people leaving the room, and it turned out that those people disappeared without a sound in the morning, and no one was alive. There was no corpse, I'm afraid they will start to be suspicious while looking for someone now.

In the afternoon, Lu Xiaofeng said that he was going out to find Ximen Chuuxue and then disappeared. After he left, the person who was monitoring the yard sent a second wave of news: the number of people in the yard seemed to suddenly decrease—because The vegetables purchased in the yard for dinner suddenly decreased by more than half than usual!

"Could it be that they have already started to move?" Hua Manlou mused, "But no one came out from the yard. Could it be that there is a secret passage in the yard?"

Jin Jiuling's complexion changed, and he stood up abruptly, "We can't wait any longer! If they transfer A-Xia to another place through the secret passage, how will we find it?"

He immediately called Thirteen Niang and asked her to call all the masters in the yard.

Tang Wuxun and Hua Manlou led the group of people around to the alley behind the house, and climbed in from the back wall.This place seems to belong to the outer courtyard, there are still many people, and there are still guards, but they are not very powerful characters. Tang Wuxun and others can subdue these people without much effort.

But these people don't know what's going on in the inner court. According to them, from the past, people from the outer court have never been allowed to inquire about the affairs of the inner court.

Tang Wuxun left a few people to guard these people, and Hua Manlou led the rest into the inner courtyard, but the inner courtyard was empty and there was no one left.

He remembered the information he heard when he visited here last night, and found the study that the staff said that only the southeast king and his son could enter.

This study is not very big, it doesn't look like a place where people can hide, but after Tang Wuxun found a mechanism and opened a secret passage, everyone knew they had found the right place.
