cold branch low

Wen Renhuang sniffed, because he felt that there was a strong smell of medicine when he entered this room, which was very choking.

Elder Duan led them into the room and guarded the door with Elder Guo. Only he, Duan Wang, and Qu Ning were left in the room.

Qu Ning seemed to have gotten used to this smell, and said with apology: "Please forgive me, Lord Luan, Lord Luan is not feeling well, and wherever he goes, he must burn incense for a while, this incense is made from medicinal materials, yes The body is unharmed."

Huo Xiao frowned: "I haven't seen you for a few years, Lord Luan's profile has become even bigger, and even this king is waiting for him here, isn't it?"

Qu Ning bowed his head and remained silent.

But Wen Renhuang looked at Huo Xiao in astonishment, and from the tone of his voice, they seemed to be old acquaintances.

He thought in his heart that since he was an old acquaintance, the way Hei Luan "invited" Huo Xiao to be a guest was so despicable, the acquaintance's feelings seemed to be very limited, maybe he was still an enemy.

Hei Luan killed the Phoenix, probably already formed a relationship with the imperial court, and Huo Xiao is behind the imperial court, so it makes sense for the two to have an enmity, but I am pitiful that I am forced to get involved in this troubled water now!

I have been troubled for a long time.

He took a deep breath and couldn't help coughing a few times. The smell of the medicine was very strong. After a brief smell, the smell of sumac and Wulingzhi was strong and tangy. When he was injured in Qihuang Mountain, the doctor gave him He has prescribed this medicine before, so he is naturally familiar with it.

"My lord, you should smell it more, this medicine should be good for you." He rubbed his nose and said sullenly.

Huo Xiao rolled his eyes at him and covered his nose in disgust.

Qu Ning smiled in a low voice, and said: "Young Master Wenren is right, Master Luan was attacked near Qihuang Mountain a few years ago, and his injuries have never recovered, so he lit incense wherever he went I hope it will help my body to recover, now the prince is also seriously injured, this incense can also be said to be prepared for the prince."

Wen Renhuang didn't remember what Qu Ning said later, he only heard the sentence "I was attacked near Qihuang Mountain a few years ago".

Could it be him who I saved back then! ?

He was frightened by the possibility that he suddenly thought of, and his face turned pale instantly.

"Mr. Qu, may I ask how old Luan Lord is this year?" He asked abruptly.

Qu Ning was taken aback, what is the age of Lord Luan...

"Stand before you arrive?" He said uncertainly, whether he was uncertain about his age, or whether he could tell him the truth.

Wen Renhuang calculated carefully in his mind, the person he rescued that day seemed to be in his teens or twenties, and now it has been seven years, and before Li arrived, the time was actually about the same.

Qu Ning looked at Wen Renhuang with his head down in a strange way: "I don't know why Mr. Wenren is asking this?"

"It's nothing, I'm just asking, it's strange how talented people are so young now!" He was startled and realized that his question might lead to suspicion, he immediately laughed and said, seeing Huo Xiaoya's unpredictable eyes in a blink of an eye, Opened his mouth and said: "Your Highness is so young and promising, I didn't expect Lord Luan to be the same ahhhhhhhh..."

Huo Xiao narrowed his eyes, seeing that his smile was very fake.

"The prince's talent and intelligence are comparable to ordinary people." Qu Ning said seriously.

Wen Renhuang thought to himself that I had flattered him against my will, and you followed suit. You beat your own master by doing it, and you are more ruthless than me.

Huo Xiao turned a deaf ear to the nonsense of these two people, and only looked at Wen Renhuang's sly eyes with deep eyes.

Wen Renhuang noticed two gazes from Huo Xiao, moved left and right as if sitting on a needle cushion, pressed his voice and asked, "When will your Lord Luan come?"

Qu Ning looked at the sky outside the house with a frown, and said in a low voice, "Lord Luan should be here at this time, please wait for the prince and Mr. Wenren."

Huo Xiao said with a rare good temper: "No problem, I will wait."

No problem, I want to slip away!

As soon as Wen Renhuang moved his eyes, Huo Xiao said in a deep voice, "Qu Ning, go to the door and wait."

Qu Ning's gaze turned to Wen Renhuang's frightened face, and he smiled slightly: "Qu Ning obeys." He turned and closed the door.

"My lord, what instructions do you have..." He stood nervously close to the window.

Huo Xiao narrowed his eyes and said, "What have you thought about what this king told you?"

What he said was to help Wen Renhuang find his family, and there was one thing Wen Renhuang wanted to do for him, which was exactly the thing they had talked about on the boat.

"Is the prince really sure that he can find it?" He looked at Huo Xiao and asked, and couldn't help but think that Qihuang Mountain was not accessible to ordinary people, so it was no accident that the boy was injured and lying in the snow that day, maybe it was Heiluan My lord, if it's really like this, it doesn't take much effort to get it without finding a place, and he doesn't need to agree to Huo Xiao's conditions at all.

Huo Xiao smiled, and Wen Renhuang's eyes were blinded like a wind blowing willows by the river in March: "This king can arrest all the people in the world and interrogate you one by one, do you think this is enough?"

If this was said to a woman, if you change it to say that this king can give you everything you want in the whole world, that woman must collapse in Huo Xiao's arms like a snake demon who drank realgar. I thought silently in my heart.

Seeing that he was silent, Huo Xiao said again: "If you still don't feel relieved, the king can reward you with a mansion in case you can't find your family."

So already thinking about what to do if he couldn't find it, Wen Renhuang felt contemptuous in his heart, but at the same time he also started to be vigilant, in Huo Xiao's view, he should be useless, but for a useless person like himself , he just wants to make such a deal, what exactly does he want to do with himself?

"My lord, what exactly do you want me to do?" He asked solemnly with his words loud and clear.

Huo Xiao raised his eyebrows: "You don't need to know now."

Then what a ghost!

He laughed angrily: "If the lord doesn't tell me what you want me to do, it will be difficult for Wen Renhuang to obey, even if the lord forces me to do so."

Huo Xiao sat still, his gaze turned dark and cold: "Uncle dare not say it, but this king can let you see your parents right now."

This is the most blatant threat and persecution!

Wen Renhuang just opened his mouth to reply to him, "Go to your mother", but Huo Xiao immediately got up and gestured to him to stop.

A gust of wind blew by his ears, Wen Renhuang's heart trembled, Huo Xiao walked up to him and said to the people outside the door: "Lord Luan is so arrogant, do you still want me to invite you in outside the door? "

There was a pause outside the door for a while, and someone said with a smile: "I heard the prince discussing matters with his friends, I thought it would be inconvenient to interrupt, and I will knock on the door after you have agreed, I don't think the prince would mind listening so much."

Huo Xiao didn't go to open the door, and proudly said with his hands behind his back: "Of course I don't want outsiders to know about my private affairs, but what Lord Luan talked with this king can be said to be official business. Since Qu Ning has already left, please invite Luan When the Lord enters the door, stop listening to the corners at the door.”

Wen Renhuang couldn't help taking a step forward, looking in the direction of the door eagerly.

Huo Xiao frowned and narrowed his eyes.

"I'm afraid I'm going to disobey the lord this time," Lord Luan said with a little humility, "I'm afraid I'll startle the lord in the middle of the night, so I'd better stand at the door and say it."

"Why is that?" Huo Xiao asked displeased.

"Since that day, I have gradually lost my vitality, and now my face is completely changed. The night is dark and I am afraid that I will scare the prince."

Just as Wen Renhuang wanted to ask what day it was, and why his face was completely changed, Huo Xiao had already said, "If that's the case, Lord Luan will do as he pleases."

You are ruthless, shameless and unreasonable!

Why don't you let him roll in!

Huo Xiao ignored Wen Renhuang's fire-breathing eyes, sat down and gently picked up a cup of tea.

"Thank you, my lord," Lord Luan said softly outside the door, "The next time I rashly invited my lord to Beijing, I think my lord has already guessed why."

"This king just went to Beijing to report to the emperor because the palace was destroyed. It has nothing to do with Lord Luan's invitation or not." He sipped his tea and said.

After hearing this, Wen Renhuang silently glanced at Huo Xiao who was drinking tea alone, so it was like this, no wonder he didn't think about running away all the way.

There was silence outside the door for a while, then he said with a low laugh: "My lord really won't suffer at any time." Wen Renhuang agreed with this.

"That's because too many people want to see this king suffer, and this king... just doesn't want to make those people happy." He said softly.

The person outside the door seemed to sigh, and said: "However, that too many people are not included."

"Lord Luan is just here to reminisce with the king today?" Huo Xiao didn't delay, staring at the door.

The person outside the door paused: "My lord, have you seen the crow?"

"A few days ago, he went to Prince Duan's Mansion in Anning alone, and Prince Duan's Mansion caught fire that night. It's really mysterious."

Wen Renhuang felt guilty, and secretly took a look at Huo Xiao's expression, seeing him listening to his heart pounding blankly.And Huo Xiao also glanced at him lightly, and said: "The fire in Prince Duan's mansion has only been on fire for a few days, I don't want Master Luan to know about it when he is far away in the capital."

"It's not just that I know, the whole Daqi knows that Prince Duan's mansion is on fire, and the prince's whereabouts are unknown. Qihuang Mountain and the court are mobilizing all available people to search for the whereabouts of the prince, and Hei Luan is the first one they use to strike. indivual."

"That's really interesting, why didn't Lord Luan say something and tell the world that this king is in the capital?" He thought about it.

"Because I'm worried that my ability is limited. Once I say this, I won't be able to protect the prince, and the prince and Heiluan will become the thorns in the eyes of Qihuang Mountain together." The figure of the person outside the door swayed, and Wen Renhuang vaguely saw a slender black figure. .

"Lord Luan, you and the prince are old acquaintances?" He had a strange feeling, as if Lord Luan Luan and Prince Duan had no serious enmity.

Huo Xiao looked at him and moved his lips: "It's none of your business."

"..."

"Hahahaha, Mr. Wenren is so honest and cute," the black shadow tremblingly laughed, "Although I and the lord are on the opposite side, the acquaintance is true. The lord is open-minded and informal. People in the Jianghu have a lot of admiration for the prince!"

Huo Xiao frowned and looked at Wen Renhuang, but said to the people outside the door: "Stop talking nonsense with him, keep talking about Mount Qihuang."

Wen Renhuang also frowned, being deliberately ignored by Huo Xiao several times made him feel very uncomfortable, only Lord Luan smiled for a while, and said: "I guess the lord has also heard what the crow said. Recently, Phoenix has been missing frequently. Point to me, Hei Luan, and say that we have made a big move and slaughtered phoenixes everywhere."

Wen Renhuang felt contemptuous in his heart, if it weren't for you, which rebel party would dare to attack Qihuang Mountain so openly?

"Master Yiluan, does this matter have nothing to do with Heiluan?" Huo Xiao still looked like an old god, as if he wouldn't panic if the sky fell.

"I dare not say it's completely irrelevant," the voice of the person outside the door was bleak, "Hei Luan did indeed assassinate the Phoenix earlier, but I haven't issued such an order in recent years."

"And Qihuang Mountain began to carry out various attacks against our faction by taking advantage of the disappearance and killing of the phoenix. They also pointed the finger at us this time when the prince disappeared."

Wen Renhuang murmured disdainfully: "The disappearance of the prince has nothing to do with you. Who kidnapped the prince?"

"Kidnapping?" Huo Xiao raised his eyebrows.

"Please!" Wen Renhuang corrected immediately.

The people outside the door turned a deaf ear to their interaction, and continued: "The crow came to the palace with its front feet, and the palace with its back feet walked into the water, so there is no one here who falsely accused Hei Luan of setting fire to catch him and the prince in one go, and the prince, as you can see, is really Is that so, where did your injuries come from?"

Wen Renhuang's breath stagnates.

The crow set the fire that day in front of his face. He thought that the crow set the fire just to create chaos so that he could escape. He never thought that there were so many traps behind the fire, and the injury Huo Xiao suffered...

He was a little afraid to think about it.

"The fire was certainly not simple, and it is true that someone wanted to take my life." Huo Xiao narrowed his eyes, staring at the teacup on the table and said, "The martial arts of the person who injured me is not inferior to mine, and the moves have never been seen before." However, if it is said that it is a person from Qihuang Mountain, I will not doubt it."

As he was talking, he suddenly looked sideways, Wen Renhuang was thinking with his head down, and missed the faint cold light in Huo Xiao's eyes.
