Dry Dream

Chapter 88

Xiao Ling is the king.Because every day when he came back from the imperial court, he would get close and intimate with the new Mr. Xia Yan.

In the blink of an eye, it is May, and soon it will be Yaojun's memorial day. I wonder if King Xiaoling will allow me to worship Yaojun.

"Third Master, Mr. Xia Yan is visiting." Cheng Yuan said from outside the door.

I put down the book and said strangely, "What is he doing here?"

"I don't know." Cheng Yuan shook his head, "Have you seen him?"

"Let him in." I got up and went to the main room, and sat down at the table.

Wearing a big red robe, Mr. Xia Yan with a gorgeous face entered the room lightly, bowed his hands and said with a smile, "Han Yuqing has met Third Master Qi."

"Sir, please sit down." I said politely.

Xia Yan waved her hand, and the attendant who came with him put a plate of cherries on the table. "This is a new cherry, very delicious, try it." Xia Yan said with a warm smile, picked up a cherry and put it in my hand.

I froze for a moment, looked at him, and then at the cherry in my hand.

"Don't worry, it's not poisonous, hehe." Xia Yan picked up a cherry and put it in her mouth to eat.

I looked at his attendant, then at Cheng Yuan, and said, "Cheng Yuan, go out and wait."

Cheng Yuan agreed, and looked at his attendant,

Turn around and leave.Seeing this, Xia Yan's attendant also turned and left, and closed the door.

I put the cherry in my mouth and said as I ate, "What do you want me to do?"

"Hehehe..." Xia Yan laughed briskly: "I heard that the third master Qi is always dumb, and he is quite smart when I see him today."

I was noncommittal, and picked up another cherry to eat.These cherries are really delicious.

Xia Yan looked left and right, then turned her head to look at the door, leaned over and said in a low voice, "Master Qi, have you ever been to Hexing Palace?"

I frowned and looked up at him.

"To tell you the truth, my godfather sent me here to find something. Mr. Qi should know what it is?" His voice was lowered, the smile on his face was no longer there, and he said in a dark voice: "If If Third Master Qi can tell me the whereabouts of that thing, I will disappear immediately!"

I shook my head, "I don't know what you're talking about."

"Yan Jingqi! You'd better be honest!" His expression turned cold in an instant, "You took someone to Hexing Palace to rescue Zhang Yaojun, the godfather's things disappeared that day! Godfather hasn't touched you for so long , you should know what is good or bad! Tell the truth honestly, or your life will be lost!"

Sure enough, the beauty sent by King Hexing was aimed at that book.However, King Xiaoling has never told me anything, how should I deal with him?

Seeing that I watched him not speak, Xia Yan calmed down and said, "Master Qi, I can see that you like King Xiaoling. If you can tell me where that thing is, I will leave the palace as soon as I find it." .”

I took a deep breath and said, "I really don't know what you're talking about."

"You!" Xia Yan blushed with anger, stared at me and said in a low voice, "Don't toast and refuse to eat fine wine! Hand over your things quickly! Otherwise, not only you, but your entire Yan family will not have a living !"

I blinked, and blinked again, trying not to panic.

what do I do?

At this moment, footsteps suddenly sounded outside.Xia Yan's complexion changed, and she immediately returned to her warm smile and said, "Do you like cherries? If you like them, I'll send some more someday."

Before the words were finished, King Xiaoling's voice came from the courtyard saying: "I said why I couldn't find Qing'er, so I came here." Then came the reply of Xia Yan's attendant.

Then, the footsteps got closer and closer, the door of the house pushed open with a "creak", and King Xiaoling stepped into the house, saying, "Qing'er, you can make it easier for me to find you."

"Hehe, lord, you can't let me follow you all the time, can you?" Xia Yanmei said with a smile: "I'm not the only one who waits on lord, you can't forget about other young masters either."

"Hehehe... This king likes Qing'er for being magnanimous and understanding." King Xiaoling sat down beside him very happily, and hugged him on his lap: "Why? Talk to Hongyu How is it?"

"It's good, Mr. Hongyu is an honest person, but he doesn't talk much." Xia Yan picked up a cherry and stuffed it into King Xiaoling's mouth and said, "My lord should care about him more. It's easy to be bullied in the house."

"You, you only think for others, you're such a good person!" King Xiaoling pinched his cheek dotingly.

"Hehehe..." Xia Yan smiled like a flower, leaned into King Xiaoling's arms, and gave me a warning glance from the sideways eyes.

This look is very familiar, it seems that Xia Yan used to stare at me like this.Anyway, it was meant to warn me not to talk nonsense.

I stood up, lowered my head, went into the back room and closed the door.If you make out, just make out, why come to my room to make out.

Uncomfortably leaning against the door, looking at the wide open window.The sun is shining brightly outside the window, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, but I feel chilly.

You must ask King Xiaoling about the book in private, even if you don’t want to pay attention to me, but I stole the book for you, after all, you have to save so many lives in our Yan family, right?

Another ten days passed, and I went to visit King Xiaoling many times, but I was blocked every time.Han Zhen has been missing, and he doesn't know where he went.And that son of Xia Yan, Han Yuqing, came to my door several times to threaten me, each time getting more vicious, but I still didn't say anything.

This morning, Xia Yan came again and said to give me three more days, and if I don't tell him where the things are, I will wait to be put into the coffin.

In three days' time, it will be Yao Jun's memorial day...

"Third Master, are you going to find the prince?" Cheng Yuan came in from outside the courtyard and stopped me.

"Well, is the prince in the yard?" I asked.

"My lord took Mr. Xia Yan to go hunting with the emperor." Cheng Yuan replied, "I'm afraid it will take a few days before I come back this time."

"That's it..." It seems that I can only wait to die.

Can't sit still.

For the past three days, I practiced martial arts with all my might. Apart from eating and sleeping, I practiced martial arts.No matter what, we have to wait until King Xiaoling comes back.My life and death don't matter, at least I beg him to keep his family safe.

Today is Yaojun's memorial day, and at night, I ordered Chengyuan to set up an incense table outside Hongyuxuan's courtyard, at a corner by the lake, to worship Yaojun.Naturally, this matter has to be done secretly, and no one else should know about it, otherwise it will be troublesome.

The knife was placed beside me, and I asked Chengyuan to go back to sleep, and I will worship Lord Yao here tonight.In fact, I was afraid that Chengyuan would be hurt when the assassin came, so I sent him away.

In the dead of night, all sounds are silent.

In the distance came the footsteps of guards patrolling, the chirping of insects in the nearby grass, and the splashing of fish in the lake.

And hidden in all these sounds is the soft and light flying sound.

I turned my head slowly and saw a dark figure standing in the shadow of the tree.Reaching out for the knife, he stood up and asked, "Are you here to kill me?"

"You are Yan Jingqi?" The black figure took two steps forward, revealing a childish face exposed to the moonlight.

I was a little surprised: "How old are you to be an assassin?"

"Fifteen." He was straightforward, with no expression on his delicate face, not even a murderous look.

"Did King Hexing send you here?" I asked.

"I don't know." He replied, "Take people's money and help them eliminate disasters."

"What's your name?" I asked.

"I don't have a name." He slowly drew the long sword behind his back.

"Is this your first time killing someone?" I asked.

"How do you know?" He was taken aback.

"Because you didn't cover your face," I said seriously, "Assassins usually have to cover their faces. Aren't you afraid of being recognized?"

"If I kill you, no one will recognize me." He pointed his sword at me and said, "Dead people can't speak, so I don't need to cover my face."

"You didn't hurt Chengyuan, did you?" I also raised the knife.

"Are you talking about the eunuch?" He said, "He's not the one I want to kill, so of course I won't kill him."

I raised my face to look at the moonlight, and suddenly two lines of poetry popped up in my heart: "Yan Ming springs back to the night, and Xian'e points to the stars. You come wearing stars and moons, why don't you call them Ye Xing."

He was stunned again, stared blankly at me for a while, and said slowly, "Ye Xing...that's a good name. Thank you very much." After saying that, he put down his sword, "I don't think you are a bad person, but I have already accepted you. Other people's money, if you don't kill you..."

"It's okay, I'm not so easy to be killed by you." I smiled, pulled a knife, and pulled away.

He shook his head, "You have nothing in your internal strength and you have no moves. You are not my opponent at all."

I stopped talking and swung my knife to attack.

His martial arts are very high, much better than the Ji Shang I met when I was 14 years old.He was literally playing with me like I was a helpless child.But even so, within a few rounds, I received several blows on my body.

After another two rounds, he suddenly jumped away, put away his sword and said: "Forget it, I don't want to kill you, I will return the money." After saying that, he wanted to leave.

"Wait!" I hurriedly called to him, "Can you tell me who is killing me?"

"No," he said bluntly, "The rule of being an assassin is never to reveal who the buyer is."

"Oh...forget it." I put down the knife.

"Yexing, this name sounds really nice, I like it." He smiled at me.Nice smile.

Seeing him leap away like a swallow, I breathed a sigh of relief.But the moment I breathed a sigh of relief, another black figure rushed over from the darkness.Before I could raise the knife, I froze completely, and the black shadow pierced my heart...

It hurts……
