Qin Jue knew what he meant, but he was always pretending to be stupid.Seeing him like this, Xiao Mingze's face was a little gloomy: "It's just that I want you to call me by my name, is it so difficult?"

No...it's actually not difficult, but Qin Jue didn't know how to speak.

At this moment, he opened his mouth slightly, and then approached Xiao Mingze's ear and whispered, "Ziyu."

His voice was so soft that Xiao Mingze seemed to still have his voice in his ears.Xiao Mingze finally smiled. He rubbed Qin Jue's head, and then said with a smile, "Well, you're so cute."

***

Qin Jue was hugged and rubbed by Xiao Mingze for a long time, and finally in the evening he reluctantly walked out.He said that he was going to prepare the bows and arrows for hunting tomorrow, and he might come back later. He said that Qin Jue should go to bed early and not wait for him.

Qin Jue naturally wouldn't listen to him, he likes to watch the snow, and he heard that the snowy night here is beautiful, so he waited for Xiao Mingze to leave and ran out.Anyway, he told those people, no one would tell Xiao Mingze.

He was leaving soon, and people from the Xiang clan would come to pick him up soon, but he hadn't figured out how to say goodbye to Xiao Mingze yet.King Yan was going to deal with their Xiao family, and Xiao Mingze couldn't be alone. Qin Jue was even more worried that after he left, the Xiao family would undergo earth-shaking changes.

However, whether Xiao's honor or disgrace is the matter of Yan State, he is just a humble and unfavored prince in Chu State, and may not even be qualified to inherit the throne, let alone help Xiao Mingze.

The snowy night at Langgu Pass is very cold, much colder than in the palace.Qin Jue has been weak since he was a child, and he couldn't bear the wind and cold, so he looked at the snow shining brightly under the moonlight for a while and then went back.

And when he went back and passed by the camp of the two Murong Yun brothers, he suddenly heard that the two were plotting something. If it was an ordinary thing, it would be fine. It's about Xiao Mingze.

After hearing Xiao Mingze's name, Qin Jue stopped and secretly listened to what the two of them were talking about.

At this moment, he heard Murong Jin say to his brother Murong Yun: "Brother, if we really kill that kid surnamed Xiao tomorrow, will it really be all right?"

Qin Jue's eyes widened suddenly when he heard this, and he quickly moved a little closer, and then he could hear more clearly.

"It doesn't matter. Anyway, during winter hunting every year, there are quite a few people accidentally injured by random arrows. Just make it look like it was an accident. The concubine mother told us that the father has been trying to get rid of Xiao's serious trouble recently. , so as long as we get rid of this kid, my father can rest assured, when the time comes, my concubine will tell my father quietly, and my father will definitely appoint one of us as the heir."

Murong Jin was less courageous than his elder brother, and at this moment he had some concerns: "Then...won't the people from the Xiao family investigate? What if they rebel against each other?"

"The soldier talisman has now been taken back by my father. I saw him put it under the head of the bed in his bedroom. He usually doesn't let anyone approach him, not even his mother. That's when I secretly saw it under the bed." Yes, the people of the Xiao family lost their military power, and he wanted to rebel, how could such a thing happen in the world?" Murong Yun smiled smugly at this moment.

At this moment, he put a hand on his younger brother's shoulder: "Oh, don't worry, tomorrow we will pretend to be a wolfhunter and go with that kid surnamed Xiao, and give him a little while when others don't recite it." Arrow, when no one sees it, there will be no proof.”

Murong Jin: "But..."

Seeing his mother-in-law's appearance, Murong Yun was suddenly a little displeased and said: "If you want to please the father, you must kill him. Do you want to disobey the order of the mother and concubine?"

Murong Jin said timidly at this moment: "No... no... I didn't think so. If that's the case, then let the big brother make the decision!"

After Qin Jue heard their plan, he was very confused. He hurriedly left from the camp of the two of them, but at this moment, he accidentally bumped into the burning brazier frame in his panic, and the frame fell down. Then there was a sound.Seeing this, Qin Jue was so frightened that he almost jumped out.

Murong Yun was the first to hear this sound, he shouted in the tent: "Who is it?"

Qin Jue didn't even dare to run when he heard the noise... If he ran now, someone would chase him according to the footprints on the snow.And when he stepped on the snow, he would also make a sound. At this time, he covered his mouth, curled up into a ball and stepped back cautiously. There seemed to be footprints of some animals walking around, and he stepped on the footprints on tiptoe. above, to make the illusion of animals walking by.

He stepped back very carefully, and at this moment Murong Yun suddenly lifted the curtain of the tent and went outside to have a look, and at this moment, the guard outside hurried forward and said: "What orders does Your Highness have?"

Murong Yun frowned at this moment: "Did you notice anyone passing by here just now?"

After hearing what he asked, the guard replied truthfully: "Your Highness, I didn't see anyone."

Naturally, he didn't see anyone, because Qin Jue walked past behind their camp.And at this moment Murong Jin said: "Brother, did the sound just now come from behind?"

After hearing what he said, Murong Yun hurriedly ran to the back of the camp, and then some guards and Murong Jin followed closely.When he ran to the back of the tent, he found that there was only a row of footprints of wolves behind the tent. He frowned and asked the guards to come over: "Why are there wolves in our tent? How do you all do things?"

After hearing his reprimand, the guard hurriedly defended himself: "Your Highness, when you adults came here, we checked many times, and there will never be any wolves here."

Murong Yun pointed to those footprints and asked: "Then you can explain to me, what are these?"

The guard was speechless after hearing this...the lack of love here should not have wolves, they are camping at the foot of the mountain, the wolves are all on the mountain, and there are so many people and torches here, those wolves Dare to approach easily.

At this moment, Murong Jin discovered the clues in those footprints... It seemed that someone had stepped on these footprints again, because the claw marks in the middle were gone.And looking at the shape of the footprints, it should be a little wolf, which is not dangerous.

Murong Jin was much smarter than his elder brother, so he ran in the direction of his footprints.And Murong Yun shouted behind him at this moment: "A Jin, where are you going?"

Before he finished speaking, Murong Jin followed the footprints to the bottom of a mountain slope. The slope is a bit steep. Although it is said that people will not be killed if they fall, at least they will suffer some injuries.The wolf's footprints ended here, and only the footprints here have not been stepped on. Maybe... he really thought too much.

He turned his head, and Murong Yun chased after him: "If there are wolves here, don't run around. What if you are eaten by wolves?"

Murong Jin smiled: "I'm fine, I'm just a wolf, let the guards check it again, by the way, don't forget to ask them to go down this hillside to check it when you go back."

Murong Yun frowned slightly when he heard him say this: "Okay, it's getting dark, let's go back first."

"Ah."

And Qin Jue, who was covered by snow at the bottom of the hillside, was almost scared to death. He buried his body with the snow, and he jumped down at once, so there was no trace of his stepping in front of him.At this moment, his foot seemed to be sprained, and his whole body was freezing cold, and his head was dizzy for a while.

But now he knew very well that he couldn't continue here, he wanted to get up and go back to Xiao Mingze's tent, but for some reason he just couldn't move.

And at this moment, suddenly something warm approached him.Qin Jue opened his eyes at this moment, and stood in front of him a half-grown little wolf. This little wolf was as big as a puppy, but its teeth were very sharp. With Qin Jue's current physical strength, he was no match for it at all. If it Now bite him hard on the neck, then Qin Jue's life must be here...

thump thump-

Qin Jue's heart began to beat violently. He closed his eyes and waited for the last moment... He obviously wanted to tell Xiao Mingze about this, so...he died first, and Xiao Mingze will die tomorrow.

If this is the case, do the two of them go to hell together?

When Qin Jue thought of this, he suddenly smiled. He didn't expect to have someone to accompany him after his death.It's still pretty good, at least Huangquan Road is not lonely.

Just as he was waiting for the little wolf to bite off his neck, Qin Jue suddenly felt the little wolf lick his face with its rough tongue.

Qin Jue's eyes widened suddenly, and he turned to look at the little wolf. There was a little white fur on the forehead of this little wolf, which looked very cute.Qin Jue couldn't understand what it was doing, but at this moment the little wolf continued to lick him with its tongue.

Qin Jue felt that he had regained some strength, and then he quickly got up and ran back on a pile of dead leaves that had fallen in the snow.And the little wolf followed behind him, Qin Jue couldn't get rid of it no matter what, so he let it follow.

When they arrived at the tent, Qin Jue found a piece of raw meat and threw it to the little wolf. The little wolf picked up the meat and then glanced at Qin Jue.That look seemed to be thanking him...

That's right... this wolf is still young, not all people are born to eat people, maybe... its parents haven't taught it how to eat people, right?

***

Xiao Mingze did go back very late that day. As soon as he went back, he saw that Qin Jue was shivering from the cold, and his body was also injured. His ankle was sprained and he couldn't walk anymore.Seeing this, Xiao Mingze immediately lost his temper with him: "I just walked away for a short while, why did you make yourself like this?"
