cold branch low

Jinling City is not as prosperous as summer and autumn in winter. The bleak wind and cold humidity make people much colder than in the north. The most famous Qinhuai River is also unable to enjoy boats because the river is frozen. big fun.

After all, it is a capital city, and it is less prosperous than in the past. Compared with other places, Jinling, which is about to celebrate the New Year, is still an incomparable capital city.

The bustling crowd was full of joy, and Wen Renhuang looked at them with a faint smile on his face, feeling a moment of peace in his heart.

Huo Ting walked out of the mansion, saw him looking at the long street with his back to the palace, he felt a trace of sadness in his heart, and then thought about it, it is obviously a good thing for the prince to send him away, why should he feel sad?

So Huo Ting stepped forward with a straight face and said, "Mr. Wenren, are you ready?"

Wen Renhuang turned his head and said, "It's all ready, don't worry, housekeeper."

Huo Ting nodded, beckoned to the coachman and said: "Send Mr. Wenren back to Ning'an well, and you will come back before New Year's Eve, there must be no mistakes."

The coachman nodded and bowed, and stretched out his hand to greet Wen Renhuang. Wen Renhuang's calm face finally showed a slight ripple. He turned his head and looked at the General's Mansion where he had lived for several months. After a long silence, he turned and stepped into the carriage. , don't look back.

Huo Ting watched the convoy gradually go away in the long street with people coming and going, and sighed deeply.

The moment the door of the mansion was closed, a sinister smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Those people hiding in the corner of the street thought I was old and my eyesight was blurred.

The convoy started to be quite bumpy after leaving Jinling City. Huo Xiao not only wanted to send Wen Renhuang back to Ning'an, but also dragged back a lot of antique calligraphy and paintings on the way, so all the drivers were careful not to damage Duan Wang baby.

Wen Renhuang didn't really care. He had no worries about food and clothing since he was a child, so he never paid much attention to these things, so he never took a closer look at them. He has been snuggling in the carriage, holding a stove with soothing incense in his hand.

No one bothered this mysterious young man. Although there were rumors that he was the only person whom King Duan had favored over the past 20 years, he might be out of favor if he sent him away so quickly.

I'm afraid Jinling City will be extremely lively this year. Others thought in their hearts, without this obstacle, the matchmaker would probably break through the threshold of the General's Mansion again.

Wen Renhuang couldn't help laughing when he heard someone outside the carriage discussing whether he fell out of favor or not.

Well you Huo Xiao, now the young master has really become Da Qi's most pitiful person.

He opened the curtain of the carriage and looked out, he was already quite a distance away from Jinling City, and now he was off the official road, the road was uneven and the carriage was rickety.

He secretly calculated the time in his mind, opened the incense burner, sprinkled in a pack of prepared medicine powder and closed it again, took a deep breath and waited.

They left after having lunch at noon, and it is now approaching evening. The winter sky always darkens faster, and the convoy gradually slowed down. There happened to be an inn by the roadside, so they planned to rest here tonight.

Wen Renhuang shivered from the cold after getting out of the car, and hurriedly stomped his feet. The coachman smiled and said, "Young master, go in quickly, lest you catch a cold."

Wen Renhuang smiled gratefully and entered the station.

He ate a lot for dinner, and he could only keep warm if he was full. This was what he knew since he was a child. Qihuang Mountain was so cold all year round. If he didn't eat enough, he might starve to death while walking on the road one day.

I went back to the room and opened the window. I found that the second floor of the post station was only mediocre, and I would not fall to my death if I jumped down. Then I closed the window and lit a brazier to keep warm, regardless of the arrangements of the people in the motorcade outside.

After a while, a louder voice sounded from downstairs.

Immediately afterwards, there was the sound of bowls and dishes being smashed, and Wen Renhuang pricked up his ears to identify them carefully, only to hear vague words such as "forbidden army" and "special" in the broken sound.

He smiled, and jumped out of the window when the footsteps gradually came, the footsteps were so light that there was no sound at all!

Someone opened the door and found that there was no one in the room. His face sank and he shouted outside: "No one! Search around immediately!"

Wen Renhuang, who was only hiding outside the window and stepped on the eaves of the window, sneered, his name was so high, he was afraid that the young master wouldn't be able to find it, so he jumped up to the roof with a light effort.

He gently lifted a piece of tile on the eaves, and found that the coachman and his followers who had been traveling with him had all fallen down, still holding chopsticks and bowls in their hands.

I don't know who turned his head inadvertently, and found that a tile was missing on the roof and an extra eye, and shouted: "There!"

Wen Renhuang was startled, and immediately put down the tiles and ran away. Unexpectedly, the people outside the station immediately received the signal and rushed to stop Wen Renhuang when he jumped off the roof and was about to run out.

"Young Master Wenren, please follow us back."

Wen Renhuang suddenly stopped in his tracks, and the other party was dressed in a dark purple flying fish suit with a shining sharp knife, clearly the identity of the Imperial Guard: "I don't know if you are making such a big deal out of molehills just to bring them back?"

He asked with a little sarcasm, but the other party said formulaically and without a trace of emotion: "Mr. Wenren is an important person. Even if we die, we must bring Mr. Wenren back to the capital safely."

Wen Renhuang said in a low voice: "I wonder which adult wants to see me?"

The other party said: "You will know when Mr. Wenren returns."

Wen Renhuang laughed softly: "There is nothing to hide, either the second prince or the emperor, who is it?"

The other party looked at each other, but still didn't tell him, Wen Renhuang frowned and said: "Since you can't even tell anyone, how do I know if you lied to me? A handsome young man who lied to me these days knocked him unconscious. There are too many sons to go to the mountains to do to others, and I can't take it lightly."

The other party was silent collectively, and the dozen or so big men sighed in their hearts. Is such a shameless person really the one their master is looking for?

Wen Renhuang saw that the other party was silent, and immediately ran away!

It was very easy for more than a dozen people to chase him. After a while, they surrounded him in a small forest outside the post station. Even if he was not drugged, it would not be easy to escape easily. Wen Renhuang thought distressedly, on a winter night It is really hard for him to fly back and forth to escape in such cold.

"Young Master Wenren, you won't be able to run away, so you'd better go back with us obediently!" The leader said in the same formula as before.

Wen Renhuang waited quietly.

three.

two.

One.

An arrow pierced through the leader's head from the side, blood was splashed on the flying fish suit, and the man who was threatening Wen Renhuang with a cold face before fell down instantly, blood and brains splashed out.

Wen Renhuang's eyes widened, and he clenched his fists tightly to prevent himself from collapsing and vomiting.

When he was on the roof, he found not far away there was a unique bird song representing Qihuang Mountain. It was a bird that Fengtian could call, so he knew that Fengtian must be nearby, so he came here without fear. Communicate with these Praetorians.

Never thought that Feng Tian, ​​who had treated him tenderly, would appear in this way!

Suddenly, there was a noisy chirping of birds from thousands of mountains, which was incompatible with the current quiet winter night. Wen Renhuang squinted his eyes and looked into the distance. A figure in light yellow rushed towards him with the back of the bird...

Such a big change came so suddenly, but after all, they are well-trained imperial guards. After the leader died, they were only stunned for a while, then immediately stood up on guard and shouted: "There are assassins!"

They quickly surrounded Wen Renhuang in the middle, and now Wen Renhuang lowered his eyes, it seemed that they really came to protect themselves.

The man flew down from the back of the galloping bird, his black hair was scattered, and his figure was light and elegant. If you ignored the strangely shaped sharp weapon in your hand, you might think he was an exiled immortal.

Feng Tian looked at the other side with a cold face, his eyes fixed on Wen Renhuang who was surrounded by a crowd, and said: "Give him to me, and I will spare you from dying."

The voice was clear and deep, like water flowing slowly in a cold pond. Wen Renhuang swallowed, and only heard people around him say: "Who are you, you dare to be so presumptuous after assassinating the commander!"

Feng Tian said expressionlessly: "You don't deserve to know who I am, it's his honor that I killed him with my own hands."

Indeed, the ones he killed with his own hands were usually the emperors.

Wen Renhuang was caught in the middle and didn't dare to speak to translate easily, going back and forth feeling aggrieved and at a loss.

And Fengtian's words obviously angered the imperial army, it was just that the arrogant rebels who came from nowhere dared to say: "I want to die!" They swung their swords and stabbed at Fengtian!

Wen Renhuang's heart palpitated for a moment, only to see a contemptuous smile on the corner of Fengtian's mouth, and lightly waved the long handle in his hand to cut open an invisible field.

This is his absolute domain, Wen Renhuang slowly took a step back.

Feng Tian said expressionlessly: "If you run away, these people will die."

Wen Renhuang gritted his teeth and said, "Fengtian, why did you become like this?"

Feng Tian said: "If you stay in Qihuang Mountain all the time, I will always be the original person in your heart."

Seeing him in a daze, Wen Renhuang seemed to smile, and said, "Are you trying to kill the emperor and usurp the throne?"

Feng Tian raised his head and turned his weapon, and those forbidden soldiers who had no power to resist were also turned in the air at the same time, all of them showed panic, he looked at these people, and said slowly: "Mortals, in the eyes of Phoenix It is fragile, but the forbidden curse on the phoenix cannot be a king, we keep this promise for generations, otherwise, how can these kings defeat us?"

Wen Renhuang looked at the strange scene in front of him, and said, "Then what are you doing all this for?"

Feng Tian looked at him, and said slowly: "I thought you could do it."

In the dark, a bone claw firmly grasped his heart, and Wen Renhuang said, "What did you say?"

Feng Tian looked at him with a smile: "Do you know why these people came to chase you?"

Wen Renhuang's breathing gradually became unsteady, but he could not panic, he pretended to be calm: "Why?"

Feng Tian said: "Because, that old emperor is smarter than I imagined, he recognized you as his son."

With a sudden grip of the bones, Wen Renhuang felt a twinge of pain in his heart!

"Unexpectedly, I took you back when you were seven years old, and he can still recognize you at a glance after so many years. As expected, the blood bond is endless." Feng Tian laughed at himself, "It's a pity, a pity, you are a A phoenix, although it is a phoenix with broken wings, is still a phoenix after all."

Wen Renhuang's face was pale and he fell to his knees: "What did you do to me?"

Feng Tian looked at him, and said slowly: "Now you know why the Phoenix cannot be the king, because while the Phoenix has spiritual power, the spiritual power also contains a forbidden spell that prohibits the Phoenix from being the king, even if you are A prince cannot be a king."

Wen Renhuang couldn't believe it: "You said that I... am the prince?"

Feng Tian whispered: "Yes, my Fourth Prince."

The fourth prince, whose name is Huang.
