Chapter 502 Join them

He sat down, picked up the teacup and took a sip: "Why is there no one serving in the room?"

"I'm not used to it." Jiang Bojian saw him pick up the teacup and took a sip.

"I'm not used to it?" Xiao Yanli raised his eyebrows, very curious about his statement.

No matter what, Jiang Bojian was raised by being pampered, and there would only be more people serving him, not less. Even after entering the school, there were still book boys by his side.

And such a person, now he said he was not used to it?

"Yes, I feel that those who serve me are not to my liking, and they are very stupid."

Jiang Bojian sighed lightly, but there was a bit of arrogance between his eyebrows.

Xiao Yanli sneered in his heart.

It's not that he's not used to it, it's clear that this spoiled top scholar doesn't like it.

His fingertips moved slightly, and Jiang Bojian aroused his competitive spirit.

If he had stayed in the school for a longer time until the imperial examination, or if he had stepped up to give Jiang Bojian a fatal blow when he hid, would the result be different?

Unfortunately, there is no if.

Xiao Yanli suppressed the resentment in his heart, and said casually: "What about your book boy? He has served you for so long, he should be smart."

Jiang Bojian's eyes suddenly filled with disgust: "Your Highness, please don't mention that thing that is betraying others. I treat him well on weekdays, but he colluded with others to drug me during the imperial examination!"

"Is this true?!" Xiao Yanli was surprised and said: "Have you found out who bribed him?"

"It was Gao Wen."

Jiang Bojian's face turned even gloomy when Gao Wen was mentioned.

The children of the Minister of Rites?

Xiao Yanli was puzzled, but he didn't show it on his face.

He pretended to comfort Jiang Bojian, and after seeing Jiang Bojian's expression eased, he said, "I heard that you have a bad relationship with your sisters?"

Jiang Bojian said without hesitation, "I only have one sister."

It was true that they were not on good terms. Xiao Yanli's smile became even more intense, "Jiang Yushi is an important official in the eyes of the emperor. If you can have a good relationship with her, your future career will be very successful."

His next words were a little evasive, with a lot of temptation.

Jiang Bojian looked at him impatiently: "If Your Highness came here just to talk about this, I'm sorry that I can't talk about it completely."

"Look at you, why are you so anxious," Xiao Yanli sighed lightly, and his expression changed: "I came here to tell you a piece of news."

He raised his eyes and stared at Jiang Bojian: "Last night, there was a fire in the Xu Mansion. In the mansion, only Jiang Sulan escaped, and the rest of the people..."

He paused, as if he didn't dare to say anything more.

Jiang Bojian looked at him dully, as if he couldn't understand what he said.

Xiao Yanli waited patiently, and saw that Jiang Bojian's eyes were red, and he stood up suddenly: "Impossible! How could there be a fire? Aren't there Jinyiwei surrounding it?!"

He stood up so much that he overturned the table. It was also because Xiao Yanli reacted in time that he didn't let the tea spill all over him.

But the corner of his clothes still got some stains.

Xiao Yanli's eyes flashed with disgust, and when he raised his eyes again, his eyes regained their calmness.

"Yes, there are Jinyiwei guarding outside the mansion, but last night, Jinyiwei were all killed."

Jiang Bojian felt as if there were needles stabbing his head, and he saw double when he looked at people.

He took a deep breath and held onto the wall: "How is it possible, with so many Jinyiwei!"

Xiao Yanli took a deep breath: "But this is the fact. Father has ordered a thorough investigation to find the person behind the scenes. Bojian, do you know if Grand Tutor Xu has offended any powerful person? Not only the Grand Tutor, but also your brother and sister!"

Jiang Bojian frowned and looked at him: "Impossible. As far as I know, my grandfather was incorruptible. Although he offended some people in his early years, they are all dead. My eldest brother has been bedridden for many years. The only person he offended was the second prince, but he is now in prison, and his subordinates have all dispersed."

"It is naturally impossible for my sister to offend anyone. Jiang..."

Sister refers to Jiang Sulan, and the latter Jiang should naturally be Jiang Zhiyu!

Xiao Yanli pricked up his ears.

"I can't even count the number of people she has offended!"

Xiao Yanli could see a hint of sarcasm in Jiang Bojian's bitter smile.

He wanted to say something, but when the words came to his lips, he couldn't think of how to refute.

After all the words, there was no useful clue.

Xiao Yanli sighed lightly.

"Then have you noticed anything unusual about Jiang Zhiyu?"

"Abnormal?" Jiang Bojian murmured as if asking a question, and hesitated: "There is one thing, but..."

He suddenly stopped, and Xiao Yanli couldn't help but take a few steps forward in a hurry, but heard a noise outside the house.

"Stop, who are you?"

"The emperor has ordered to summon Jiang Bojian. Who are you and what do you want to do here?"

It's the emperor again!

Xiao Yanli took a deep breath, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching twice.

"Your Highness has sent someone to guard outside the house?"

Jiang Wenjing looked at him suspiciously.

"After all, I am under house arrest. I have to be careful when I go out privately to prevent others from discovering me." Xiao Yanli said calmly: "Since the emperor has summoned you, you should go quickly. Don't make the emperor wait anxiously. I will wait until they leave before going out."

Jiang Bojian nodded in understanding and opened the door to go out.

Because his back was facing away, Xiao Yanli did not notice that Jiang Bojian smiled for a moment when he opened the door. He

was anxious to rush him out because he wanted to see if there was anything hidden in his house.

Unfortunately, there was nothing, but there were a few insects that his sister eliminated.

I don't know if those insects can bite him without anyone's instructions.

Jiang Bojian raised his eyebrows with a little hope.

...

On the other side, Jiang Zhiyu and others were still riding their horses towards the dense forest.

The city is not far from the dense forest, but they can always meet a few lost companions along the way, so they can only continue to ride on the streets. When they see them, they will join them on their own.

The current team has expanded from ten people to thirty-five people.

The Nangong soldiers behind them are still chasing them relentlessly.

Not to mention thirty-five people, even one hundred and thirty-five people are just a fraction of them, not to be afraid of!

At this time, in the main hall of the royal city, the King of Nangong did not have such a good mentality.

Jiang Zhiyu and Jiang Wenjing turned around and ran away at the city gate, which aroused the suspicion of the King of Nangong.

Even if the King of Nangong did not get along with them, with his current understanding of them, they would not turn around and run away!

There must be a bigger conspiracy behind this!

The bloated figure of the King of Nanlong sat on the throne, and his ministers stood below him. Not long after, a man ran in and said, "Your Majesty, they are still in the city, riding their horses as if they want to go around the city, and people are joining them from time to time!"

King of Nanlong: "???"

Ministers: "???"

"Join them? My people join them?!"

"No, no, no, no, judging from their attire, they are also Tianqi people. I don't know when they sneaked into the city!"
