Chapter 154
After Li Xiao learned about it, his complexion changed drastically, and he immediately arranged for his confidants to investigate the matter thoroughly.

The attendant who checked the number of people and the degree of injury came back, and he faltered in the face of Ni Tu and Wang Baidu.

Li Xiao became a little impatient, and said: "Speak! Ni Shaojun is no one else."

"I have checked, and except for Ni Shaojun and Wang Baidu, everyone was injured."

The scene was silent for a while, and it became awkward.

Wang Baidu reprimanded sharply: "Bold! Do you want to doubt what I'm doing? Didn't you see Brother Tu rescue me from the mist and send me to the door?"

The leader standing on the side hurriedly echoed: "The little one is willing to testify. Ni Shaojun rode his horse like flying, guarding this young man and reached the gate of the fence in the blink of an eye. Thanks to Ni Shaojun's reminder, the little one thought that the two great kings were in trouble." , and it was Ni Shaojun’s reminder to look for the princess. If Ni Shaojun hadn’t rescued her twice in a row, the assassin would have already succeeded.”

At this time, the man faltered and said: "The little one has already found out that there is indeed a mist in the dust and smoke, and everyone has been confused and lost their minds, except Ni Shaojun and Shaolang..."

"Do you suspect that the poison I waited for? Hehe, good people are not rewarded. Brother Tu and I shouldn't be here today to hunt. It would be nice to let you taste the assassin's poisonous arrows." Wang Baidu was so angry. whitish.He hated others wronging him the most in his life.

At this time, the leader who was standing aside also quickly explained: "I saw that Ni Shaojun was wearing a nose covering when he came out of the galloping horse. It is very exquisite. It must be the mask sold by Baoyuanzhai."

Ni Tu also took out the mask from his pocket, smoothed it out slowly, and said, "I have asthma since I was a child, I don't see this dusty wolf smoke, if I inhale it, I will get coughing, so I made this thing since I was a child, and I have been using it for a long time. When encountering strong wind, wolf smoke and dust, I will wear it unconsciously, and I am used to it.”

The leader also stroked his hair: "This mask is indeed very useful. Our army often rushes in the deep forest and is often infested by the miasma and poisonous fog. If we had this treasure, there would not be so many The brothers broke for no reason, can Ni Shaojun help us get some masks like this?"

"It's a little effort, I will send someone to deliver it in the future."

"Thank you!"

The two are exchanging pleasantries.

However, Li Xiao was angry with his guard: "Bastard! Do you want to doubt Ni Shaojun? If Ni Shaojun didn't take action, I would have already ascended to immortality! What use are you waiting for!"

Li Xiao raised his leg and kicked it in the air.

"His Royal Highness Xu, I also found out that His Royal Highness Qi and Gao Yuancong are missing."

"Shangjin?" Li Xiao suddenly thought of a bad thing.

This younger brother has always been preoccupied, especially he has been fantasizing about being a prince.

Before today's hunting, Ni Tu mentioned to his eldest brother that he would become the crown prince, he was very happy with his elder brother, and told himself quietly.

The gossip must have told Shang Jin, making him red-eyed.

If because of this, he thought of...

"No! No! Impossible!" Li Xiao's mind turned rapidly.

He thought of the fact that in the martial arts competition, because Ni Tu won and stole Gao Yuancong's limelight, Princess Qianjin favored Ni Tu and snubbed Gao Yuancong, Gao Yuancong would definitely hold a grudge.

And the two disappeared at the same time, could it be...

The more Li Xiao thought about it, the more he frowned.

At this time, someone shouted in surprise: "King Qi and Gao Yuancong are back."

Everyone looked in the direction of the man's finger.

Everyone saw that the two horses crossed the deep ditch and circled slowly.

Seeing the white bandages wrapped around the back of Gao Yuancong's hands, Ni Tu immediately thought of something, and couldn't help squinting his eyes to carefully look at the person who shot crossbow arrows at him.

"Humph! It's really you!"

When the two arrived, Li Xiao checked that Li Shangjin's body was clean and abnormal, and asked, "Shangjin, where have you been? You won't be sleeping in such a busy hunting ground, right?"

"Yeah, I'm going to sleep! Lying on a tree trunk to sleep has a special taste, it's much more comfortable than sleeping in a tent."

Li Shangjin said that he didn't even dare to meet Li Xiaozheng's eyes, so he dismounted and walked straight towards his tent.

Li Xiao wanted to be angry but couldn't say it out, so he could only transfer his anger to Gao Yuancong who had just dismounted.

"What happened to your hand?"

"When I was helping the princess catch a sika deer, I was injured by it, but it also slipped away." Gao Yuancong said solemnly with lowered eyebrows.

"According to your archery skills, you shouldn't return empty-handed, right?"

"Little one, the little one has been helping the princess catch the sika deer. She said she wants to keep it alive, and then raise it after catching it. The little one has no time to care about other prey."

"How can you be so dedicated." Li Xiao sneered.

"If His Royal Highness Xu Wang didn't give orders, the younger one will go to rest."

Li Xiao nodded coldly.

Gao Yuancong felt relieved, bowed his head and turned to leave.

Li Xiao was furious, he roughly guessed something, but he couldn't find their reason, the anger got a little hot for a while.

After meeting the two of them, Li Xiao further confirmed that it was impossible for them not to do it.

It's just that Li Shangjin, the younger brother of a compatriot with the same mother, dared to ruthlessly attack him, which really made Li Xiao's heart shudder.

In order to seek the position of prince, he tried to get rid of his elder brother Li Zhong, which he had expected a long time ago.But he didn't hesitate to do anything to beat him. Is this still his own brother?

Li Xiao tortured himself deep in his heart.

"Your Highness, in the absence of evidence, it's better not to speculate. This will hurt the brotherhood."

After hearing this, Li Xiaowen suddenly raised his head to look at Ni Tu.

He didn't expect Ni Tu to see the matter in front of him so thoroughly.

"Ni Shaojun, if you have any doubts, please tell me."

"Your Highness, the younger ones are not." Ni Tu replied calmly.

Li Xiao froze in place.

"Your Highness, let's send more people to investigate the assassin carefully, in case anything else happens. I think there must be a ghost among these scholars. If not, how would the assassin know the hunting intention and road map of His Highness and the Princess?" What? If so, even soldiers like copper and iron will be hard to guard against."

"Ni Shaojun is right! Come here..." Li Xiao led people to arrange a strict inspection, so he went to Li Zhong's place to check how he was recovering.

Looking at Li Xiao's back, Ni Tuchuan sighed.He expected that the battle for succession between their brothers had already begun.

If I hadn't said those words to Li Zhong today, Li Shangjin's assassination would have taken place sooner or later, but it was a little earlier than the original history.

"Thank you Shaojun for your kind words! I am willing to worship Ni Shaojun as a servant."

The leader next to him said.

Previously, Ni Tu only thought that this person was good at speculation, but he did not expect that just now he really helped him a lot. Although it was just a few words of truth, he testified for himself, allowing Li Xiao to eliminate his doubts about him.

Ni Tu expressed his sincere thanks to him.

Ni Tu replied with a smile: "I should thank my brother for his kind words and great help just now."

"Where, the little one is just reporting the truth, not a word of helping."

"Dare to ask my brother's name."

"My surname is Wei and my name is Zhenzai."

"Brother Wei, my name is Ni Tu."

"Ni Shaojun, little one knows."

"Brother Zhenzai..." Ni Tu was suddenly surprised in his heart.I thought: "Wei Zhenzai, why does it sound familiar?"

"Brother, do you have a name?"

"The next character is Yuanzhong."

"Wei Yuanzhong?" Ni Tu was suddenly astonished, "No wonder he is so familiar with this name, so this is Wei Yuanzhong, the most influential figure in the Wu Meier Dynasty!"
