Chapter 208 Still Alive
"what?!"

Lin Qian opened her vivid eyes in vain, and said in disbelief, "The princess is coming?"

Seeing Lin Qian's reaction, Xu Nuo glanced at her and nodded slightly.

"Why did the princess come?"

Hearing this news, Lin Qian almost stood up immediately.

Then I realized that my reaction was a bit fierce, but there was still an incredulous look on my little face: "The princess hasn't left the capital for several years, since then..."

As if thinking of something, Lin Qian quickly shook her head again: "Why did the princess think about coming here this time?"

Before Xu Nuo could speak, Lin Qian seemed to have thought of something, and muttered to herself, "That's right, the little Princess is here, the princess should be worried..."

Speaking of this, Lin Qian's eyes suddenly lit up slightly: "So we will see the princess soon?"

Xu Nuo said silently, "Yes."

"Great!"

"Since the princess is here, then Wu Xing is not worth mentioning... No matter how rampant his Wu family is, they don't dare to act presumptuously in front of the princess..."

A bright smile appeared on Lin Qianxiao's face: "Also... I haven't seen the princess for a long time, and I don't know how she is... I miss her so much..."

Lin Qian had a hopeful look on her face.

As the princess's maid, she has been with the princess since she was a child, except this time she came to Qingshui County and separated from the princess for a long time.

Now that she heard the news that the princess was coming, she was naturally overjoyed.

However, Xu Nuo didn't have as much joy on Lin Qian's face.

Lin Qian quietly looked at Lin Qian who was full of joy and excitement at the moment, but there was a bit of worry in her cold and beautiful eyes.

"Lin Qian."

"Ok?"

Lin Qian raised her head in doubt, and she quickly saw Xu Nuo's slightly complicated expression.

"what happened to you?"

"It's okay." Xu Nuo said.

"No, you have something to do!"

Lin Qian stared at Xu Nuo and spoke.

She, Xu Nuo and the princess are good sisters who have known each other since childhood and stayed together since childhood. She knows Xu Nuo very well.

Right now the princess is coming to Qingshui County, which is clearly a good thing.

On the one hand, it shows that the princess may have come out of the shadow of her fiancé's mysterious disappearance three years ago. On the other hand, once the princess comes to Qingshui County, it means that she will completely tear herself apart from the Wu family.

But with the princess around, even Wu Xing couldn't cause too much trouble.

On the other hand, the three of them can still be reunited, shouldn't this be good news?
Why promise such a dignified look.

Has something happened?
"What's the matter? Did something else happen?"

Lin Qian looked at Xu Nuo and asked.

Xu Nuo looked at Lin Qian, hesitating to speak, an indescribable emotion appeared on his cold face.

After a while, she shook her head.

"You lie...you are the worst at lying!"

Lin Qian stared at Xu Nuo, "Quickly tell me, what's the matter?"

"you……"

Under Lin Qian's questioning, Xu Nuo hesitated, then gave her a complicated look, "You really want to know?"

"Say it quickly, I'm so anxious to death."

"..."

After a moment of silence, Xu Nuo suddenly said, "You and Shen Lin, what are your plans?"

Xu Nuo suddenly asked about Shen Lin, which made Lin Qian stunned.

He didn't react for a while, and his expression froze for a moment: "What's wrong with him?"

"you answer me first."

Xu Nuo stared at her.

The expression on Lin Qian's face gradually became blank.

How do you plan?

With... Shen Lin?
In her mind, she suddenly remembered what Shen Lin said to her a few days ago...

Does she like him... or is she grateful?

Or is it another reason?

For the past few days, Lin Qian has been thinking about this question.

She has no experience in liking others, and she usually stays in the palace, but she often hears stories about the maids in the palace secretly falling in love with that guard.

But she never really made contact.

Until I met Shen Lin...

She was really confused at first, and even doubted herself a little.

But after these two days of thinking, she gradually determined what was in her heart.

"I……"

"I do not know either."

Lin Qian sighed quietly.

"Are you planning to sever ties with him, or..."

Xu Nuo stared at her: "Want to be with him?"

She asked seriously, as if the question was important.

The smile on Lin Qian's face gradually disappeared, and she sighed, "Can I decide? That guy..."

Thinking of that guy, Lin Qian gritted her teeth a bit more: "He avoids me."

"There are catkins around him."

Xu Nuo looked at her expressionlessly: "If you want to be with him...you can only be a concubine!"

"Why?!"

Lin Qian raised her head suddenly, her delicate face was full of resentment.

Why should she be a concubine?
But soon after, the emotion on her face quickly faded and became more gloomy.

She can't even be a concubine now?
"So, you break off with him."

Xu Nuo shook his head and said, "There is no result between you and him."

"I……"

Lin Qian lowered her head slightly, and bit her lower lip tightly: "I can't bear to..."

"You are not suitable for him. This time the princess should not have agreed to let you come here with me."

Promise is expressionless.

A bit of unbearable emotion flashed in his eyes.

Perhaps this time, she really shouldn't be allowed to follow.

only……

If Lin Qian hadn't followed, would there have been an intersection between them and Shen Lin?

Everything is uncertain.

"You have to think carefully... After the princess comes, there will be no possibility for you to be with him."

"why?"

Lin Qian looked up at Xu Nuo, and couldn't help asking, "How do you know that the princess will stop us? Maybe the princess will support me?"

She is the maid beside the princess, but she is different from other maids.

Since she was a child, she had been in love with the princess as sisters, and Lin Qian's status in the palace was also extremely high.

Logically speaking, the maids around the princess cannot marry casually.But Lin Qian is different after all, what if the princess is willing to help her?

"The princess will not support you!"

Xu Nuo still spoke expressionlessly.

"why?"

"because……"

The promise almost blurted out.

But then, she suddenly realized something.

"No why!"

"You lied... What are you hiding?"

"I do not have."

"You have...promised that you have learned how to deceive people, so hurry up and say it."

"Not really."

"I do not believe!"

"..."

Under the moonlight, the sky was silent.

On the eaves, a promise in a red dress stands on the roof.

In the distance is Qingshui County, which has fallen into darkness and silence.

It seems peaceful, but this peaceful scene will soon be broken.

"Master Xu!"

A black shadow fell silently on the eaves.

"The subordinates have already sent people to carry out a blanket search outside Qingshui County, but failed to find the mysterious master. The other party is very cautious and has not revealed any flaws."

Xu Nuo listened to his subordinate's report with a blank face, then nodded lightly: "I see."

Then, she glanced into the distance: "Where's Wu Xing?"

"Wu Xing and his party are already on the way here, and they haven't hidden their whereabouts. If there is no accident, they will arrive in these two days."

"Continue to keep an eye on their whereabouts, and report to me at any time if there are any changes."

"Yes!"

After the shadow left, Xu Nuo still stood on the roof.

There was a trace of worry in her cool and beautiful eyes.

Wu Xing will arrive at Qingshui County in the next two days, but the princess is still some distance away from Qingshui County. Before the princess arrives, everything in Qingshui County will become uncontrollable.

Then Wu Xing represented not only the Wu family, but also the forces behind the Wu family.

The princess has not arrived, can she stop it?
Xu Nuo frowned and remained silent.

It was not until a long time later that she slowly retracted her gaze and glanced at a certain room in the yard.

The lights were still on.

Seeing this scene, there was a trace of confusion in Xu Nuo's eyes.

Almost three years ago, the current emperor decided to marry the princess in order to stabilize the court.

Logically speaking, if His Majesty loves the princess, he will definitely not do anything against the princess' wishes.

But unexpectedly, the princess did not refuse this marriage.

Ever since, the marriage was settled.

The marriage between the royal family and powerful ministers of the Emperor Daning was supposed to be a strong alliance.

However, while preparations for the wedding were in full swing, the groom's whereabouts were unknown.

He left behind an unintelligible letter and ran away from home.

So far, no news has been heard.

This incident caused a great commotion in the capital.

Three years passed and everyone thought he was dead.

Even the princess thought so...

A trace of trembling and shock appeared in Xu Nuo's cold eyes.

She also always thought that the princess' fiancé was dead!

At that time, I don't know how many people in Beijing opposed this marriage, and there were also many people who sabotaged it secretly.Whether he ran away from marriage or had some accident back then, it has not been found out yet.

But in the eyes of everyone, he who disappeared for three years is probably dead.

If he didn't die, why did Emperor Daning forgive him for his crimes, but he still didn't show up?

Well, the answer is self-evident!

but……

Promise to have sharp and sharp eyes!
He is not dead!
The princess' fiancé is still alive.

only……

Xu Nuo still stared at the brightly lit room in the courtyard, and remained silent.

……

In the early morning, the sun slowly falls on Qingshui County.

A train team came slowly from the official road and appeared outside Qingshui County.

On top of several tall and fast horses sat a few guards with good looks and temperament.Behind him was a splendid carriage.

"Young Master, Qingshui County is here!"

With a soft cry, the curtain of the carriage was lifted, and a young man in brocade clothes stepped out of the carriage and looked at the county town ahead.

"finally reached!"

There was a lazy look on the young man's face, and a strange look in his beautiful eyes. He glanced around: "Is this the Qingshui County? It really is a small place!"

A guard came from the side and whispered: "Master, this Qingshui County is a small place isolated from the world, so naturally it cannot be compared with the capital... If it is not about the second son, why do you bother to run away?" come here?"

"Don't underestimate this place!"

Wu Xing looked ahead, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said meaningfully: "Wu Yuan didn't plant himself here carelessly. This Qingshui County looks small, but it's actually Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon!"

"Let's go, let's meet the big shots here."

With that said, Wu Xing jumped off the carriage and walked forward.

Outside the city gate, the soldiers guarding the gate had long since discovered the group of people appearing outside the gate.

It looks extremely nasty.

Qingshui County is a small place, and most of the city defenses on weekdays are useless.However, during this period of time, because of the news of the Dragon and Tiger Gang, the county magistrate attached great importance to it, so he sent additional city defense forces.

At this moment, when he saw this group of people arriving outside the city gate, someone stopped him.

"Who? Show your identity token!"

"Calling you..."

The guards around Wu Xing wanted to reveal their identity to see the county magistrate, but they were quickly stopped by Wu Xing.

"Don't worry, let's go around the city first."

With that said, Wu Xing revealed his identity.

The pupils of the soldiers at the gate shrank suddenly when they saw the ID cards presented by Wu Xing and the others.

"It turns out to be Master Wu of the capital, please come in!"

The soldier immediately changed his attitude, and greeted Wu Xing and others respectfully.

After Wu Xing and his party entered the city, the soldiers immediately changed their expressions: "Quick, quickly send someone to notify Butou Shen that Wu Xing is here!"

"..."

in the courtyard.

Shen Lin was eating at home when there was a sudden knock on the door.

"Who?"

Shen Lin put down the bowl and chopsticks, drove to the courtyard and opened the door.

"Catcher Shen, it's not good, Wu Xing is here!"

The person outside the door came panting to report the news.

Shen Lin's expression froze slightly: "Here you come? When?"

"Just, just now... a group of about a dozen of them were wandering around the city..."

As early as a few days ago, Shen Lin specially instructed the brothers in the county government office to report to him as soon as possible if they encountered Wu Xing and similar strangers.

Today, it is finally here!
Knowing that Wu Xing and others had arrived, Shen Lin also paid attention to it.

"Miaomiao, stay at home and don't go out, I'll go out for a while!"

After Shen Lin instructed Miao Miao, he went out.

County government!

yamen.

"Wu Xing from the Wu family is here?"

When County Magistrate Xu heard the news, his face changed suddenly.

He knew that the Wu family would come, but he didn't expect that it would be Wu Xing?
The eldest son of the Wu family?

This means that the Wu family is really aggressive this time?

"Quick, get ready!"

County magistrate Xu quickly calmed down after a brief panic.

"Follow me to welcome Mr. Wu!"

"..."

In Qingshui County.

Wu was walking on the street, looking around with great interest.

I grew up in Beijing since I was a child, and I have rarely been to such a small place.On weekdays, I have only seen it described in other people's mouths and books.

When I saw it today, I was really behind.

"Did Wu Yuan die here?"

Wu Xing glanced around, with a playful look on his face.

"It's no wonder he's so presumptuous. He definitely doesn't pay attention to such a small place... If I'm not wrong, he should be very presumptuous here, right?"

The guards on the side did not dare to speak.

The second young master's dandy and lawless character, even in Beijing, is extremely presumptuous, how could he restrain himself in this kind of place?
It's just that no one expected that the second son would fall, right?

"I don't know if I can meet it?"

Wu Xing squinted his eyes, and there was a bit of indifference and murderous intent in his eyes.

He really wanted to meet those so-called masters hidden in Qingshui County!
A group of people turned around in the city, and at this moment, several figures suddenly appeared in front of them.

Several figures of police officers walked slowly across the street, and quickly came to Wu Xing and his party.

Immediately the crowd parted, and a figure in Confucian robes walked slowly.

"Master Wu!"

This person is the master of the county government office. He walked quickly to Wu Xing, cupped his hands and said, "Mr. Wu has worked hard from a long distance. The county magistrate has been waiting for you for a long time. Please come to the county government office to have a meeting with Mr. Wu!"

"..."
