Chapter 075 Jin丨Exclusive publication of Jiang Wenxue

After that light cough, no other sound was heard.

Gong Jiu slowly breathed a sigh of relief. He looked up at Pei Rui, lowered his voice, and said fiercely: "Don't tell my brother about this! Although I am not your opponent, I have thousands of ways to make you live a life worse than death."

Pei Rui whispered: "You live very close."

Gong Jiu got up from the ground and patted his clothes: "He is my biological brother. We have a good relationship, so naturally we live close. Before I was ten years old, I even lived in the same room with him and slept in the same bed."

System: [Really? ]

Xue Chen: [Really, but at that time he had not developed yet and did not have this special habit. He was just a soft and soft child, and he was particularly well-behaved in front of me. Damn it, why didn't I travel through time earlier! The original owner enjoyed all the benefits of his younger brother, leaving only the perversion to me.

Pei Rui said indifferently: "I live far away, I can hear the noise you make at night, and he must be able to hear it too."

Gong Jiu said coldly: "Don't bother."

Pei Rui nodded, holding the knife and preparing to leave.

Gong Jiu: "Wait!"

Pei Rui turned his head in confusion.

Gong Jiu tidied up his clothes and his hair crown, his voice became colder: "You just said that you came here to watch the excitement, what excitement are you watching?"

Pei Rui remained calm: "See if you will ask someone to beat you up at night."

It turned out that this bastard came to watch his excitement!

Gong Jiu's face suddenly became gloomy.

Many times, he didn't care how others viewed him, and even thought that it was very interesting for some people to see him when he was sick. Therefore, he rarely avoided it in front of others, and everyone around him knew that he had this unique hobby.

But those people were weak and could be controlled by him.

As long as Gong Jiu wanted, he could kill them at any time, so their thoughts didn't matter.

But Pei Rui was different.

Gong Jiu couldn't beat him at all.

He just threatened Pei Rui, saying that there were thousands of ways to make him live a life worse than death. He did have ways to deal with Pei Rui, but those methods were all very troublesome.

Because Pei Rui was the adopted son of King Taiping and someone that his eldest brother had taken care of.

If Pei Rui got into trouble, Gong Jiu could not guarantee that he could get away with it.

If the King of Taiping had noticed his thoughts, he would probably kill him without hesitation, just like he killed his mother.

Gong Jiu didn't dare to gamble.

Being ridiculed by Pei Rui in person, Gong Jiu could do nothing but endure it silently.

He combed his hair neatly: "Now that you have seen it, and the person I asked for is you, are you satisfied?"

Pei Rui: "It would be better if it wasn't me."

Gong Jiu's face was gloomy: "Why don't you take action!"

Pei Rui said lightly: "I just like to watch the excitement and don't want to get involved."

Gong Jiu looked at his hands.

Those were the hands of a peerless swordsman, white and slender, with coils on the fingertips left by years of using the knife, which looked a little rough, but definitely powerful.

If these hands picked up the whip, it would definitely hurt.

But he never hit himself once!

He was even unwilling to cut himself with a knife, and he had never used the scabbard!

Gong Jiu looked at his hand for a while, then looked at his brother's window, and sighed softly.

-

"It's a rare opportunity for our family to be reunited, and I should have spent time with you, but this morning I received a secret letter from the Privy Council. I will lead my troops to the front tomorrow to fight the Jin army." Prince Taiping looked at the three children and said to Pei Rui, "Rui'er, come with me. I'll tell Zhuge Xiaohua and go to the front to gain some military merit." Pei Rui

nodded silently.

Xue Chen was busy picking up dishes from the plate in front of Pei Rui.

He had a good appetite, but he didn't eat much. After taking the medicine, he ate even less.

Pei Rui has difficulty with his eyesight, so he has to be extra careful when eating to avoid making a mess. Xue Chen specially prepared a plate for him to feed.

Gong Jiu had a gloomy face the whole time, staring at them silently.

Xue Chen pretended not to know, stuffed the chopsticks into Pei Rui's hand, and said softly: "Eat more, Xiao Mian, you can't eat the meals at home when you go out."

Gong Jiu said sarcastically: "Xia Mian?"

Xue Chen smiled: "Rui'er's nickname is Xiao Mian."

Gong Jiu didn't care at all what Pei Rui's nickname was.

He just wanted to know why his eldest brother had such a good relationship with this bastard when he had only been away for a few days!

Normally, Gong Jiu would definitely question his eldest brother directly. After what happened yesterday, his relationship with Xue Chen has not been repaired, and Gong Jiu really doesn't have the confidence.

Gong Jiu suppressed his dissatisfaction, and his cold expression softened. He looked at Xue Chen and whispered: "Brother, I want it too."

Xue Chen picked up a piece of food for him with chopsticks: "Xiao Mian's eyes are not convenient, you should take care of him more."

Gong Jiu nodded, as if he had just discovered that he was also Pei Rui's brother: "I should take care of him, and I should also fulfill my brother's responsibility. Brother, please let me do this job."

King Taiping said with relief: "Seeing that you brothers get along so well, I feel relieved."

Pei Rui did not participate in the conversation throughout the whole process and ate silently.

Xue Chen: [It's a pity that my vision affects my eating speed, otherwise I would just inhale it like a storm, and no one would be able to snatch it from me.]

System: [……]

It seems to understand a little bit, why Xue Chen made Xiao Mian's past so miserable.

It turns out that it was all to pave the way for eating!

-

Prince Taiping led his troops to the battle, Xue Chen was unable to see him off due to illness, and Gong Jiu also did not see him off under the pretext of taking care of his brother.

The notice posted by the Prince's Palace was very useful, and two traveling doctors came to the palace today.

An ordinary doctor was not worthy of Gong Jiu's personal reception, so he sent a few servants over, while he stayed beside his brother and massaged his forehead obediently.

He used his inner strength and lightened the force, and the massage was very comfortable.

Xue Chen pretended to be reading the "Universal Worthy Practices and Vows", but in fact he kept feeling sleepy and felt that he could fall asleep if he closed his eyes.

He did not embarrass himself and leaned on the low couch. After a while, he became fuzzy. Before he was disconnected, he felt the book slip from his fingertips and his head leaned on his brother, which made him feel particularly at ease.

Xue Chen was distressed: [Why is this happening! ]

System: [What's wrong? What's wrong? ]

Xue Chen: [I seem to have trusted him a little too much. I knew that all aspects of his cognition needed correction, but I still let down my guard when I was with him. 】

System:【After all, he really won't hurt you.】

Xue Chen:【Having said that, I still think my father's love is healthier. My brother is psychologically dark, cowardly, stubborn and willful... Alas.】

System:【Alas.】

Gong Jiu originally had a lot to say to his brother, but seeing that he was sick and tired, he couldn't say anything.

He took the blanket next to him and covered his brother, and just stayed by his side quietly.

The servant outside came over and reported: "Sir, one of the two doctors has been sent away, and the other seems to be really capable. Would you like to meet him in person?"

Gong Jiu nodded: "Then go and meet him."

-

Pei Rui followed Prince Taiping to the front line. Xie Heng received a letter and set out to sea, preparing to go to Prince Taiping's mansion.

Prince Zhao's mansion was peaceful for a few days, but the man in black that day had not been caught, so they could only strengthen the guard to prevent the thief from appearing again.

Seeing that the time was almost right, Liu Yixuan continued to break into Wanyan Honglie's study at night. He stayed up for two consecutive days, touched everything in his study, wrote it down, and sent it to Lao Yan.

System: [Lao Yan was stunned. If you send more letters, the vegetables in the basket will not be able to stop.]

Xue Chen: [That's his business.]

System: [You are too impatient. You can divide it into small and multiple deliveries, and you can sleep a little longer at night.]

Xue Chen: [There is no way not to be impatient. Didn't you notice? The letters in the study are all military secrets, none of which are related to the murderous flute sound, but we have already learned clearly that the Jin person he has contact with is Wanyan Honglie. 】

System: [Yes. 】

Xue Chen: [Now there are only two possibilities. One is that Wanyan Honglie has already put the poison into use and handed it over to his subordinates to deal with, so he doesn't need to ask about it personally. 】

System: [Why did you directly determine that it was put into use? 】

Xue Chen: [When the previous poison appeared, it was still in the experimental stage. The experimental results must be reported. Wanyan Honglie couldn't help but pay attention. If he doesn't have it, then it can only be that the toxicity is stable and he doesn't need to keep an eye on it personally. Second, he gave up. 】

System: [Given up? 】

Xue Chen: 【The drug maker and the Jin people were not on good terms, and did not reveal all the uses of the poison. The Jin could not control it, so it had to give up.】

System: 【Then why did he send people to the capital to poison?】

Xue Chen: 【It is possible that the Jin and the drug maker reached some kind of agreement, it is possible that the Jin kept a portion for itself, and wanted to use it to do something big in the end, or it is possible that the person was not sent by the Jin. I don’t know the details.】

He walked around the garden, and there was a cluster of roses in the distance, full of small red roses.

The roses now are all local roses, which are not very ornamental, but can be used as medicine, or made into flower dew, rose jam and snacks.

Liu Yixuan came to the rose bush, stretched out his hand to push aside the thorns, and walked around inside for a while.

Xue Chen: [Found it.]

System: [What are you looking for?]

Xue Chen did not answer, but took a few steps deeper into the thorns. His feet were empty and he fell straight down from above.

This cave is about four or five feet deep from the ground. Even if Liu Yixuan's lightness skill is full, it will take some effort to get up.

He looked around and saw a small path in front of him. He walked along the path until he reached the end, where he saw an empty earthen room.

It was extremely dark in here, cold and eerie, and there were several rows of skulls neatly arranged on the ground.

The system whispered: [Could there be a ghost?]

Xue Chen: [Stupid.]

A black shadow suddenly flew over, scaring the system to scream. Xue Chen thought it was too noisy, so he locked it in a small dark room.

Liu Yixuan did not dodge at all, nor did he use Qinggong to escape, he just stood there.

The shadow touched Liu Yixuan's forehead, and with a slight force on his fingertips, he could have taken his life.

"Master, stop!" Wanyan Kang shouted, "Don't hurt her!"

"If this little girl sees this place, she will definitely tell others about this. It's better to kill her to prevent future troubles."

Wanyan Kang hurried over and stood in front of Liu Yixuan: "She is dumb and timid, she will never tell anyone."
