Uncle, don't overdo it

"What is the master going to do?" Wuqing asked.

"Heh..." Ximenhen chuckled, "You can find some problems by approaching them, but it does bring you some troubles, so let them figure it out."

"What does master mean?" Wu Qing tried to ask, "Don't you plan to tell King Xuan where Lin Xiner is hiding? Then what if King Xuan really wants to make things difficult for master?"

"He forced me just to test it out. After all, I, who hang around outside the palace all day, is more suspicious than Ximen Yin. It is inevitable to be the primary target." Ximenhen is indifferent to his situation, "Speaking of temptation , they will not suffer less."

"They? Is the master suspicious of the relationship between King Xuan and Lin Xiner?" He asked ruthlessly, "Aren't they in dire straits now?"

"There are no absolutes in anything, especially at this time, we must be more careful." Ximenhen said, "I don't care, I have been watching the show, but Ximen Yin will not be less active."

"My master gave me the feeling that he has been guarding against the third prince and seems to be very worried about the third prince. At the same time, he is also against King Xuan. He is neither an enemy nor a friend. The subordinates have never understood that the master has abilities that are not inferior to them. Why is it just Standing outside the matter, occasionally doing something, is also for other people's consideration." Wuqing said.

Just like throwing the female corpse into King Xuan's mansion to warn King Xuan of the changes, and asking Zhiqi to return the dagger to King Xuan. Although he has the ability, he didn't do anything harmful to others, but paved the way for himself. , but did not step forward.

"Ability is used to protect oneself, not to stand up against someone." Ximenhen said, "If there were no accidents, I would just want to live like this, but it's impossible."

Ximenhen's eyes narrowed and he stared ahead, as if he had anticipated the stormy waves ahead.

Ximenhen stood up and said, "I'm going back to live in the palace for a few days, you take care of the outside affairs."

"Master intends to return to the palace like this?" Wu Qing asked.

Just now the master said that he was being forced by King Xuan, so he just walked back to the palace?

"That's right. At this time, I was pushed hard by the emperor, and it was time to hide in the palace with the secret of his injury." Ximen Hen said, "It is impossible for me to find Lin Xiner. When I find it, I will go back to the palace and stay there to see what Uncle Huang plans to do with me."

"Then do you want to reveal the news about Lin Xiner to King Xuan?" Wu Qing asked.

"No, I have confidence in Uncle Huang." Ximen Hen said.

After leaving the mansion, Ximenhen went back to the palace directly.

"Running back to the palace?" Ximen Jingxuan was slightly surprised when he got the news that Ximenhen had entered the palace.

"My lord pushed the second prince so hard, I had no choice but to rush back to the palace to take refuge." Yang Chen said, "It seems that he really doesn't know Lin Xiner's whereabouts, or he is afraid of people in Shuiyue Palace who dare not tell."

"That is to say, this king overestimated his ability?" Ximen Jingxuan said, the figure of Ximen Hen flashed in his mind, it was true that he had always been like that, and his suspicion was purely based on intuition.

Now, Ximenhen has returned to the palace with the secret of his injury, is that secret still a secret?

"My lord's move is a bit risky. What if someone does something against my lord while my lord is still injured?" Yang Chen said worriedly.

"Isn't the Shuiyue Palace the biggest disadvantage to this king?" Ximen Jingxuan leaned back in his chair, also indifferent to his own situation.

"Outsiders didn't know the real injury of the prince. Presumably this is the reason why the people in Shuiyue Palace did not dare to attack the prince rashly. They just colluded with the prince to act. If someone knows that the prince has not recovered from his serious injury at this time, there will inevitably be some secrets." move." Yang Chen said, "Look, my lord, you should step up your guard."

"It doesn't matter, I won't take my own life seriously to take risks, knowing my current situation." Ximen Jingxuan said, "What I'm waiting for now is that possible secret movement."

If no one pays attention to him, can the suspicion of Ximenhen be ruled out?

Or did Ximenhen also understand what he was thinking, so he deliberately made an evasive gesture?

This move of chess didn't seem to show any advantages or disadvantages. Could it be that he and Xin'er had to fight each other to lure out the person hiding in the dark?

He wished so much that he and Xin'er could abandon the situation of "harming" each other one day earlier and stand side by side again.

"My lord, do we need to conduct a thorough investigation of the residential houses that have been circled?" Yang Chen looked at the sketch on the table and asked.

It was Ximen Jingxuan who circled several locations based on the structure diagram he drew around the exit of the secret passage of Zuihualou.

Ximen Jingxuan turned away from thinking about Lin Xiner, lowered his eyelids, and glanced at the picture.

In fact, knowing that Lin Xiner was taken away by Huangfu Yanchong, he should be able to rest assured, but he was not sure about Lin Xiner's whereabouts, so he couldn't rest assured, he always needed to know where she was so that he could feel at ease .

However, this does not seem to be the solution.

If Lin Xiner is found, she will fall into the sight of others again, and there will be a series of things and people around her, and her leg injury is still not healed at this time, the most important thing is to be able to recover safely .

At the beginning, he was worried that something unexpected would happen if Lin Xiner found out about the Grand Master's Mansion's change of mood, but after these two days, there was no sign of trouble. It seems that his worry was unnecessary, so is it right? Should she be given the opportunity to continue "hiding" until the moment she decides to reveal herself?

Ximen Jingxuan decided to change his mind and put away the sketches on the table, "Forget it, Shuiyue Palace is acting strangely, maybe they really used some means to bring people out of the capital, if she wants to deal with this king, die for Shuiyue Palace Those who want to take revenge will show up sooner or later, and this king is just waiting."

"It's just that Lin Xiner hid in the dark, fearing that there might be some unexpected move that would make it impossible for us to guard against it." Yang Chen said, "And the emperor is still waiting for an important person."

"She's not the only one hiding in the dark? After all these years, how many people have been hiding in the dark trying to deal with this king? At this moment, we are looking for her so hard that we are led by the nose. According to this king , we still respond to all changes with inaction." Ximen Jingxuan said, "Perhaps, if we don't go to her, she will make new moves. The emperor will try to deal with it."

"Yes." Since King Xuan made the decision, Yang Chen must obey, "This subordinate will be withdrawn."

After Yang Chen left, Ximen Jingxuan gently opened the blueprint in his hands. This was his final conclusion based on Yang Chen's search report.

If Lin Xiner was still in the capital, including the time she had to escape from Zuihualou to avoid being discovered, she must hide in the shortest possible time. The places circled on the drawing are the easiest places to hide. According to With their structure, it is impossible to find a foothold to observe the situation in the courtyard in detail from the outside.

As the last chance, Ximen Jingxuan will not let these places go, but he doesn't want his subordinates to visit them, but decides to check these places himself, he only needs to know if he has gained anything.
