The ruthless prince and the enchanting concubine

Chapter 120 Prince Wuli

The winter night is extraordinarily cold, and it is a bit chilly. The heavy snow for several days seems to have filtered out the impurities in the air, everything is so lonely, and the stars in the sky seem to be much closer to the human world.

Today's Gupan River has long been frozen, like a big lump of ice, and a few old boats that no one wants are quietly stuck to the ice surface at the shore.

In a secluded place, a woman was standing, dressed in a mink fur padded jacket and a hood. She couldn't tell what kind of face she was, nor could she see a suitable expression. She was waiting there quietly, like a lifelike sculpture, only The constant exhalation of the fog in front of it can prove that the sculpture is still alive.

She seemed to be waiting for someone in this cold night.

A gust of biting cold wind blew up, lifted the corners of her clothes, and blew off her hood, her blue hair fluttered, so soft and charming, she couldn't help wrapping her coat tightly.When the cold wind stopped, she was about to bend over to pick up the hood that had fallen on the ground, when she suddenly stopped, and in the next second, she realized that the person she was waiting for had finally arrived.

Sure enough, behind her stood a tall man, covered in a black cotton robe.Like a ghost in the night.

Under the moonlight, this man's face is particularly conspicuous, with sharp edges and corners, and his eyes are mature and steady. He is about thirty years old.

"Xiao Xi..." the man called softly.

Nangong Yuexi turned around, a look of reunion after a long absence appeared on her face...

The name of the visitor was Zhao Shuo, and this quiet corner by the Gupan River was where they met secretly.

"Zhao Shuo, you're finally here." Nangong Yuexi's tone was beautiful and there was a hint of kindness.

"Xiao Xi, asking you out on such a cold night, it's really... Forget it, let's not talk about it, how are you doing recently?" Hearing this, Nangong Yuexi's eyes seemed to have moved elsewhere. Putting the other matter aside, if Zhao Shuo hadn't secretly asked her out, she might still be anxiously waiting for the news she expected.

"Does the sect master assign me any other tasks?" Nangong Yuexi shifted his gaze to Zhao Shuo's cheeks again. The stern face looked so clear.

Zhao Shuo nodded, put away the concern just now.

"Xiao Xi, there is news about Prince Wuli! The sect master asked me to tell you the information." After hearing this, Nangong Yuexi didn't know whether it was surprise or excitement. Maybe the surprise was greater than the excitement, although the sect master had been I firmly believe that Prince Wuli is not dead, but I always think that he has already died in the battle.

"Then... where is the prince now?" Nangong Yuexi hurriedly asked, after all, she was loyal to her sect, Baidumen, and this prince Wuli was the only hope of the master of Baidumen, so this Wuli Li's position in Nangong Yuexi's heart is self-evident.

Zhao Shuo looked around vigilantly, the night was still as quiet as before, he would be closest to Nangong Yuexi's ear, and said solemnly and softly: "The master of the sect has obtained reliable information, the prince is now hiding in the In this imperial capital."

If Nangong Yuexi was surprised enough to know the prince's clue, then this news surprised her even more.

"What? Just in the capital?"

Zhao Shuo nodded, and said in a deep voice: "The sect master sent me to tell you this time, asking you to do everything possible to find Prince Wuli and get in touch with him. This is the mission this time."

Nangong Yuexi's perfect jade-like sides seemed to have a slight embarrassment.

"Zhao Shuo, I understand the sect master's eagerness to find the prince, and I also want to find the prince as soon as possible, but, you know, the imperial capital is so vast and vast, how easy is it to find someone? It can be said to be looking for a needle in a haystack, but for this one clue, I'm afraid I have more than enough energy." Nangong Yuexi expressed her worries.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Shuo nodded and sighed softly.

"I don't know what you said? But don't worry, the sect master also told me one thing, and told me to tell you."

There seemed to be a gleam of light in Nangong Yuexi's eyes.

"Oh? Come on, what is it?"

Zhao Shuo's face was dignified. Originally, his stern face was sharp-edged, but now the moonlight was shining, and it looked more like a knife and an axe. He spoke in a low voice, revealing a sophistication and stability that did not match his age.

"For so many years, no one in the sect has discovered the whereabouts of the prince, which means that he is hiding very deeply and will not be easily found. The master of the sect even told me that the prince may have changed his name or even his appearance."

"You mean Yirong?" Nangong Yuexi was even more confused, "So, if the prince doesn't come out by himself, how can others find him?"

Zhao Shuo lightly supported Nangong Yuexi's shoulder with his hand: "Xiao Xi, don't worry, although a person's appearance can be changed, but the body is not easy to change. The door master said that there is a piece on the prince's right wrist. The clear and conspicuous imprint of plum blossoms was specially tattooed when he formed an alliance with the sect master. As a covenant of alliance, Xiao Xi, think about it, people's appearance is easy to change, but this kind of mark can't be changed in a lifetime, you Just remember, the person with a plum blossom mark on his right wrist is the Prince Wuli we are looking for!"

Nangong Yuexi listened carefully to Zhao Shuo's words, for fear of missing a word, she secretly wrote down in her heart that the right wrist... the conspicuous plum blossom seal...

"Xiao Xi, I know that although there are such clues, it is not easy to find such a person in the vast sea of ​​people..." Zhao Shuo's words revealed his understanding for Nangong Yuexi, and a slight hint of Caring, he knew that he was originally a vicious person, but every time he saw Nangong Yuexi, he couldn't help but show such considerate care...

Nangong Yuexi listened to what she was saying, without saying a word. She lowered her head and hid her face in the darkness.

After a long time, she raised her head, her eyes were so determined, as if she had made a great determination.

"Zhao Shuo, you don't need to say too much. You go back and tell the sect master that I, Yue Xi, have been loyal to him. My whole life is to be loyal to him and to the Hundred Poison Sect! I will definitely do my best to find Prince Wu. from..."

Zhao Shuo pursed his lips tightly, stretched out his hand, and caressed her jade-like cheek with a complicated expression. He didn't know whether it was love for her or a touch of distress.

The cold moon was like frost, and the bleak Gupan Riverside was deathly silent. The only things that came from here were a few whistling winds and the ghostly hooting of owls from the distant woods...
