Chapter 75 The Man Who Passed By
Feng Jun: "Yes."
Sang Ye laughed softly, "I originally wanted my father to take Su Yunyao into the imperial court to disgust Sang Yi, but I didn't expect that she had this kind of relationship with Huo Xiao."
After a pause, Sang Yi continued, "By the way, is there any news from Sang Yi?"
Feng Jun said, "To answer the Second Prince, there isn't any for now, but Sang Yi was seriously injured, and we killed all the secret guards protecting him. I'm afraid he's hiding there and dares not show up, or he's already dead."
Sang Ye's eyes flashed with a sharp look, "I want to see him alive or dead. As long as he is not dead, he will be a great worry to me."
Feng Jun: "I understand."
"Also, it seems that reinforcements have arrived from Daxia. The Imperial City needs to be prepared in the next few days. It will probably take only two days."
Feng Jun: "I obey your command."
at the same time.
Huo Xiao, two deputy generals, Shen Qiu Nian and Ji Yan were discussing the final siege deployment in the tent.
"General Huo, the emperor asked me to bring you a message. If you can capture the imperial city of Xijing, the emperor will personally welcome you and reward you according to your merits. If you have any concerns, you can stop now. The thirteen cities of Xijing are already a great victory. The emperor said that he does not want to see General Huo in danger." Chen Qiu Nian's tone was as calm as ever.
Huo Xiao sneered, "Since it's a war, no matter how big or small, every battle is dangerous. No one can predict the future, so naturally, we don't know whether the front is a dangerous place or a paradise."
"The Emperor is only concerned about General Huo." Chen Qiunian's unfathomable black eyes trembled. "We will attack the city in two days. Has the Princess already made all the arrangements?"
"It was you, Lord Shen, who originally asked me to send the princess to Ximen Town. Now, it's you who's worried about me and has placed the princess in Ximen Town." A hint of excitement crossed Huo Xiao's stern face. "Could this be another order from the Emperor?"
Chen Qiunian's eyes were cold and sharp, but he smiled. "If the princess makes any mistake at the West Gate, even if General Huo captures the Xijing Imperial City, he will not be exempt from the blame. The princess came to the West Gate with me, so I am naturally responsible for her safety."
"The princess is now doing well in this general's residence. Every hour, someone from the general's residence will come to report that the princess is safe." Huo Xiao's eyes turned cold when he said this. "This general doesn't want to hear any more unlucky words."
Unlucky words?
Thinking of what I just said, "If anything goes wrong."
Shen Qiunian's eyes trembled, "I made a mistake in speaking."
Seeing his sincere words, Huo Xiao's expression eased a little.
At this moment, Ji Yan, who had been standing to one side without saying anything, could not help but speak up, "We are not gathering here today to discuss the siege in two days. Now that General Huo has settled the princess, let's get down to business."
After Ji Yan's voice fell, there was silence in the tent for three seconds, and then Shen Qiunian's voice was heard again.
"General Huo, I have a doubt. I don't know whether I should ask it or not?" Shen Qiu Nian said solemnly.
"If it is related to the siege, this general will tell you everything I know." Huo Xiao said.
"General Huo, after Huo Kang returned from the battle five years ago, he never mentioned a single word. How on earth did a hundred thousand-man army disappear in an instant?"
-
When Su Yunyao finished her dinner and returned to the general's mansion, it was getting dark.
After taking a shower and changing her clothes, she lay on the bed and read a picture book.
When people are bored, they want to do something.
"Xuan Qing..."
At this moment, Xuan Qing, who was dozing on the tree, suddenly opened his eyes.
Xuanming Xuanxin flew over from the other two trees.
"Boss, the eldest princess seems to be calling you."
A hint of sternness flashed across Xuanqing's face under the mask, and he gave Xuanming a look that looked like an idiot.
The meaning is obviously a counter-question: I'm not deaf, so why didn't I hear it?
But the eldest princess was lying in bed peacefully, so what else could he ask her to do?
Thinking of what the eldest princess said to her yesterday, her cheeks suddenly felt hot.
Su Yunyao waited for a long time but no one responded, so she raised her voice and said, "Xiao Xuanqing."
Little...little Xuanqing?
Xuan Ming and Xuan Xin were both confused.
Why did the eldest princess call their boss Xiao Xuanqing?
How is their boss young?
Xuan Qing's eyes narrowed when he heard this. "You two should take a break first and go to the toilet."
After saying this, he flew up and stood in front of Su Yunyao.
Su Yunyao was frightened again!
Xuan Qing was very polite and knelt on one knee. "Princess, what do you want to summon me for?"
"Can't I summon you if nothing happens?" Su Yunyao asked leisurely.
Xuan Qing's eyes tightened, "Princess, my duty is to protect you in secret, so it is not appropriate for me to show up at any time."
"oh?"
Su Yunyao drawled, her tone lingering. "Yesterday you said you were providing close protection, but today you're in the dark? Even Sichuan Opera's face-changing isn't as fast as yours."
Xuan Qing didn't quite understand the meaning of Su Yunyao's last sentence. His brows knitted deeply under the mask, "Princess, what I mean is that I will protect you closely in secret."
Su Yunyao sneered.
Hehe... hehe...
"If you are worried, Princess, you have already seen me. You can sleep peacefully. I will always be by your side. Please rest assured, Princess."
Su Yunyao's eyes flashed with a hint of teasing. She lifted the quilt, got off the bed, and lifted his chin with one hand. "Always?"
Xuan Qing is very good at light work. Not to mention if someone suddenly wants to get close to him, he can even feel if someone is approaching within a mile.
But at this moment, the eldest princess hooked his chin and he couldn't dodge it.
The moment his chin was raised, his eyes met those of the eldest princess.
Although he has been with the eldest princess for some time.
But it was the first time for him to look at the eldest princess at such a close distance.
The unique fragrance of Su Yunyao penetrated into his nostrils, causing a blush to quickly appear on his cheeks under the mask.
"Princess……"
Xuan Qing moved his lips and was about to say something.
But Su Yunyao pressed one hand on the lips of his mask.
Her fingertips seemed to be on fire, and even through the mask, he could clearly feel the tingling sensation that the flames stirred throughout his body.
Xuan Qing's eyes flickered, and he didn't dare to look her in the eye.
At this moment, Su Yunyao slowly spoke, "Did the man who brushed past me at the corner of the stairs in Zui Xiang Lou today see me?"
Xuan Qing didn't seem to expect the princess to maintain this posture and suddenly tell him something serious. He suddenly came to his senses and said, "I saw it."
"That man looks familiar to me. I seem to have seen him somewhere, but I can't remember where. Do you have any secret guards you can mobilize? Send someone to investigate and find out who he is?"
Xuan Qing's eyes darkened upon hearing this, "Yes, Princess."
The moment the voice fell, his ears trembled slightly, "Princess, someone..."
