The prince in the cold palace

Zhi Fei picked up the things left behind by the bandits when they carried away Han Dali's body, a string of ornaments made of pure gold, gloomy with blood, carefully put them in his sleeves, Yin Wuyao and Dan He stood behind Zhi Fei , No one went up to disturb him.

The evening breeze was awe-inspiring, the figure was lonely, and the three of them did not say anything in a very tacit understanding.The wind passed and the people were calm, and the houses on the cottage were lit one after another. Zhi Fei stared blankly at the dried blood and messy traces on the ground, and walked slowly towards the woods.

Yin Wuyao knew that this was the first time he had personally experienced death, the real death was shocking, he didn't know how to face it, and it was normal for him to be confused.

But this is what Xiao Qi has to face.

Yin Wuyao caught up with Zhifei, and kept a few steps away from Zhifei, keeping pace with each other.

Seeing this, Danhe wanted to follow, but a red figure floated in front of his eyes, and the sharp sword edge blocked Danhe's way.

Frowning, Dan He looked coldly at Nineteen who stood in front of him, "Get out of the way, woman. You are no match for me."

Nineteen's expression was a little sad, his face was a little pale, his bright eyes were stained with water vapor, and he was a bit endearing, but it's a pity that there are no people who appreciate and cherish flowers. Who can tell the pain in Nineteen's heart?Watching the master leave with that person, he passed by the medicine house without looking inside, his eyes always followed the prince, remembering all the arrogance and arrogance he had towards the prince recently, Nineteen bit his lower lip tightly.

"Your Majesty, no outsiders are allowed to intervene!" Nineteen crossed his sword, and the sword light suddenly appeared, pointing directly at Danhe.

Danhe was already in a bad mood, and finally found Zhibao, but there was a damned emperor on the way, and Zhifei's attitude towards him was not clear, which made Danhe even more annoyed. The emperor brought Zhibao to this place, He met a dead person again, although Danhe didn't know what happened around Zhifei these days, even if he was a fool, he knew that the dead person had a lot to do with Zhifei.

It's been a long time since I came to Batianzhai, but I haven't seen Zhifei smile at him, make fun of him, like before.

Danhe looked at Shijiu with calm eyes, "Don't force me!"

Surrounded by invisible murderous auras, Danhe's sharp eyes looked like a Shura, and he was in a bad mood and being stopped on the road, the fire in Danhe's heart burned even more intensely, "Don't think you are a woman so I dare not do it ..."

Nineteen clenched the sword in his hand, making a desperate battle, his bloodless lips were bitten tightly, his slightly messy hair fluttered in the wind, but the delicate and beautiful woman's eyes were extremely firm.

Danhe snorted coldly, put away his murderous aura, turned his back to Shijiu, "Hmph, you are looking for death, but I won't follow your wish!" He waved his sleeves, jumped onto the sturdy branch of the old tree, Looking at the figure hidden in the forest from a distance.

Even in the past now, it may not be able to make Zhifei feel relieved, Danhe knows that he is not good at words, compared to Yin Wuyao, he will only make Zhifei worry.

A waning moon hung on the top of the tree, Zhi Fei stepped on the dead leaves on the ground, and the ornament left by Han Dali was clenched tightly in his hand, which hurt his palm, but Zhi Fei didn't care, he held it tighter and tighter until it was bloody The smell filled the air, Yin Wuyao grabbed his hand with one hand, and asked him in a deep voice, "What is Xiao Qi doing?"

Zhi Fei twisted his wrist, but he couldn't get rid of it no matter what. Yin Wuyao's hand was warm and strong, and he opened Zhi Fei's clenched fist. The blood-stained ornaments and blurred palm made Yin Wuyao couldn't help but frowned.

Zhi Fei stared blankly at his palm, wanted to hold it but trembled unconsciously, his pale lips moved, "...In the end, I still don't know what he wants to say to me."

Yin Wuyao's eyes were deep, and his dejected look made him a little distressed and a little angry, "Is it important?"

"...Is it important?" Zhi Fei tilted his head slightly, murmuring Yin Wuyao's words.

After a long time, he smiled wryly, "Maybe it's not important to me, but it must be very important to Han Dali."

Yin Wuyao sighed secretly, Xiao Qi's ignorance about love not only made him feel cute, but also made him not know what to do. When will Xiao Qi turn around and look at the people who have been by his side all the time?

Zhifei clasped his hands together, put them between his eyebrows, and made a gesture of prayer. He didn't know if this gesture was right or not. It was a bit like Western religious etiquette, and it was a bit like worshiping Buddha. Sleep peacefully and vigorously.Yin Wuyao looked at Zhi Fei and made this strange gesture and didn't say anything, just looked at him from the side, and stayed silent with him.

Slowly closing his eyes, he listened to the sound of the wind blowing through the forest. This peace was the first time he felt since he left the palace. No one around him forced him, whether it was Dan He or Yin Wuyao, Nobody forced him.

Only at this time can you feel your own heartbeat and the pulse of your own life.

It's not that he's blaming Yin Wuyao and Dan He for the expectations or burdens they put on him, it's the path he chose, no matter how difficult it is, he will go on.

He didn't want to see the country falling apart and the people living in dire straits, so he wanted to become the real prince and stand by Yin Wuyao's side.

He has a family to protect, so no matter what Danhe thinks of him, he will unite with Danhe to deal with the Mu family and become a part of Yin Wuyao's plan.

This tranquility was enough for Zhi Fei to think clearly.

Turning around and looking at the handsome emperor, Zhi Fei showed a firm look in his eyes, "I want to avenge Han Dali."

The emperor looked at him noncommittally, with an unclear expression.

"What's going on with this commotion?" Based on Yin Wuyao's strategy, he must have already guessed almost everything. On this point of planning, Zhi Fei has never doubted Yin Wuyao's judgment, the emperor's His strength is unfathomable, which is also one of the reasons why many princes are afraid.

The emperor didn't answer him directly, but raised the corners of his mouth slightly when he saw Zhi Fei cheering up, "... Xiao Qi will find out in a few days. Before that, Xiao Qi has to bandage the wound on his hand."

"Ah," Zhi Fei noticed the blood-stained wound on his hand, "Do you want to find Nineteen?"

Yin Wuyao lowered his face, "Why are you looking for Nineteen?"

With a dignified and slightly angry tone, Zhi Fei blinked, "Doesn't Nineteen understand medicine?"

"Nineteen knows medicine, but you don't need medical skills for bandaging, and I can do it too." Without any explanation, he took Zhibao's hand, tore off a piece of white cloth from the corner of his clothes, and gently bandaged Zhifei.

The serious expression on the bandage made Zhi Fei feel a little dazed.

When the injury on Zhifei's hand was almost healed, and when he and the emperor were studying the account books of the cottage, there was another quarrel under the cottage.

Not only the brothers in Badong, but also many bandits in ten caves were shouting. When Zhifei wanted to see what happened, he was stopped by Yin Wuyao and Danhe. Danhe went out to check first. The face is dignified.

After asking clearly, they found out that they were from Rongli again. The men who made a fuss at the foot of the mountain just wanted to vent their anger on the people who went up the mountain this time, because Han Dali and his gang were attacked by the Rongli cavalry...

It's just that what is the plan of the person who still wants to go up the mountain knowing that he has made an enemy?

There was a hint of playfulness in the emperor's eyes, and Zhi Fei looked at him suspiciously, but Yin Wuyao only hooked the corners of his lips.

Someone outside the door sent a message to Zhi Fei to go to a cave to find Shen Rongku, Yin Wuyao's eyes flashed a trace of displeasure, but he nodded and asked Dan He to secretly protect Zhi Fei, and let them go to the main mountain.Sitting in the living room of the scholarly family, there is a young man in different clothes, slightly curly brown hair hanging to one side, with tinkling metal ornaments on his body, bronze-colored skin, and a pair of eyes shining like tigers and wolves , greedy and arrogant, staring at Zhi Fei intently, making Zhi Fei who was originally at ease could not help frowning slightly.

After looking at Zhifei for a while, the young man turned around and talked to Shen Rongku, "What is the meaning of the village master? This prince is not very masculine."

Shen Rongku laughed loudly, "Where is the second prince thinking, this person is just a small accountant hired by Shen, Zifei, come here and pour a cup of tea for the second prince."

"Forget it, the prince doesn't drink tea, let's come to the bar." Apu waved his hand, Shen Rongku looked over, Zhifei could only sigh secretly, and went to the inner room to ask the maid for some wine.

Opening the door curtain, I heard the conversation of two people in the hall.

"So the prince is here to threaten Shen?" Shen Rongku snorted coldly, "Killing my brother and trying to cooperate with me, Rong Li really doesn't think of me, Shen."

"No! Apu apologized to Master Shen for this matter. It was not my intention to kill your brother. Rong Li just wanted Guizhai to see the situation clearly and choose suitable allies. With Rong Li's strength, It is not difficult to conquer Ba Tianzhai, but Apu has always admired the bravery of the village master Shen, and he wants to make friends with the village master and conspire with the world."

"Hmph! What a conspiracy to conspire with the world. With Rong Li's sincerity, it will only take a day or two for Shen to worry about crossing the river and tearing down the bridge."

Apu laughed strangely, and the sharp laughter was a bit harsh, "Half of the forces in the Northwest are under the control of this prince. Apart from the geographical advantage, what bargaining chip does Shen Dazhai have to compete with Rong Li? Those who know the current affairs are heroes." .”

During the verbal battle between the two, Zhi Fei walked in with the wine, and Shen Rongku knocked on the table with his thick hands, "Zifei, tell the prince how much the village has lost in this riot."

Zhi Fei thought for a while, and made a long list of the bandits who died in the riot, together with the supplies to appease the relatives of the casualties, and handed it to Shen Rongku. Shen Rongku waved his hand, and the list fell on the Apu took a look, hooked his lips, and smiled sinisterly, "What does the village master mean?"

Shen Rongku didn't answer his words, but looked at Zhifei, "Zifei, pour wine for the prince."

Zhi Fei walked to A Pu's side, poured wine for him slowly, and could always feel two cold gazes behind him, which made him a little uncomfortable.

Put the wine glass in front of Apu, who was about to take the wine with a smile in his eyes, when Zhifei felt a strong force hit the acupuncture point on his waist, his body softened, and he poured the wine on Apu , Zhi Fei struggled to get up from Apu, and heard Shen Rongku's deep and bold laughter, "Haha! Zifei is so careless, Second Prince, you go down with Zifei and change your clothes before you come to meet Shen Rongku." Let's reminisce about the past!"

An ordinary stone rolled down at his feet, Zhi Fei frowned and looked at Shen Rongku, and bowed his head in silence.

The maid led Apu to the guest room, and Zhifei followed behind them. Apu swaggered and laughed with the maid while waving the folding fan in his hand.

Zhi Fei thought for a while, walked up, grabbed A Pu's sleeve, and asked him a little jerky, "Is this your thing?"

Spread out the palm, a delicate pure gold ornament, similar in style to the ornament on Apu.

Apu put away his joking expression, squinted his eyes deeply, looked at Zhifei for a while, then picked up the ornament from Zhifei's hand with a chuckle and looked at it, "Oh, so you picked it up, haha , this prince thought it was lost during the battle."

As he spoke, he handed out the ornaments to the maid beside him, raised Zhifei's chin with one hand, and looked at him teasingly, "The only ones who can keep the accessories that this prince carries are beautiful women, as for the young man..."

With a snort, Apu moved close to Zhifei's ear, and said passionately, "How about climbing into the bed of the prince by yourself?"

After finishing talking, he let go of Zhibao and laughed loudly. The maids didn't understand what they said, and Apu walked ahead in a good mood, and didn't pay attention to Zhibao.

Leaving Zhi Po with a livid face, his fists clenched tightly.
