Empress Jinghua: The eunuch is nine thousand years old

Chapter 701 Sister
Ever since he was defeated on the battlefield and became a prisoner, Xia Qin hadn't shown such a ruthless expression for a long time, it can be seen that this assassination really pissed him off.She had already learned from the coachman that they were assassinated before, but now it seems that Xia Qin is indeed very angry.

Xia Zijin lifted the broken hair beside her ear, and involuntarily drew her brows together.Xia Qin took a deep breath, calmed the turmoil in his chest, and snorted coldly, "What else could it be, nothing more than the hands of these two villains, Xia Qixuan and Lin Wang."

At first, Xia Qin was really flustered, and mistakenly thought that the person who had kidnapped Xia Shengqing was catching up again, but after he calmed down, he didn't think so.The reason is very simple. The other party is holding a real hostage in his hand, so how could he care about a fake? Especially, it must be extremely difficult to deal with Xia Shengqing. Clearly, even if he died, Xia Zijin could still find a second substitute.

In this case, it is really not worthwhile for the opponent to spend a lot of manpower and material resources to assassinate him.Xia Tianqin clenched his fists, flashing through his mind the inadvertent stiffness that he showed when he saw Xia Qixuan today, the corners of his lips slowly raised, evoking a sneer, he let go of his palm, and looked at Xia Zijin seriously, "This Wang believes that this matter should be Xia Qixuan's work."

"Is there evidence?" Xia Zijin became a little interested in his guess, but Xia Qixuan has been dormant for so long, there is no reason to suddenly take such a ruthless hand, and it is not a wise choice to expose himself so hastily.

Xia Qin pursed his lips, "Today, the king looked at him twice more, and he became stiff. If he hadn't done something guilty, how could he be like this? Even if he didn't do this, he must have something to do with it."

"Without evidence, I can't just do it casually. But what the emperor said is not unreasonable. I will send someone to investigate carefully. If it is really what he did, I will definitely not let him off so easily." Xia Zijin frowned. With warm water in his mouth, he picked up a red date and threw it into his mouth. He looked at Xia Qin with a smile, and there was a murderous look in his eyes for no reason.

"Besides, this king suspects that he already knows that this king is pretending." Xia Qin took a closer look at Xia Zijin's face, paused, and then threw out this bombshell, "Those who chased and killed this king were not skilled in martial arts. Qiang, otherwise I wouldn't let this king run away for so long, if I really want to deal with Nine Thousand Years, I will definitely not let these people with low martial arts do it, these people will not pose any threat to Xia Shengqing."

Although he didn't want to admit it, Xia Qin had to admit that Xia Shengqing's internal strength and martial arts were much stronger than his. If the people behind him really wanted to take Xia Shengqing's life, they would definitely not discharge these playful killers.Xia Qin's brows and eyes involuntarily became dignified, and he rubbed the center of his brows helplessly, "I'm afraid their master already knows whether this king is fake or not."

Xia Zijin's expression immediately turned sharp, and he scratched his fingers on the table irritably, "If this is the case, we must find out who suspected your identity as soon as possible. If Xia Qixuan really did it..."

Seeing her licking her bright red lips, Xia Tian couldn't help but tremble.But when he thought that the two of them were now grasshoppers on the same rope and in the same camp, he immediately felt relieved.

After asking about what happened, Xia Zijin asked Zhenwen to send someone to check Xia Qixuan's recent whereabouts.

And Xia Qixuan stood up from the stool in shock after knowing that the assassin had missed his hand, then looked at the hidden guard kneeling on the ground, and carefully asked Xia Shengqing's reaction when the assassin attacked, the light in his eyes was dim, and after a long while, he suddenly Laughing lowly, he waved his hand to let the dark guard go down.

After the dark guard left, he punched the table with his fist, the back of his hand hurt, and he gritted his teeth, "Xia Zijin, you really are... so bold."

Originally, he still had some doubts about the news, so he spent a lot of money to hire an assassin to assassinate Xia Shengqing to find out the authenticity. If the other party is the real Xia Shengqing, those assassins will die, but according to the secret guard, Xia Shengqing ran away in a hurry. From now on, it is enough to show that this Xia Shengqing is a fake.

After Xia Qixuan's analysis, layers of cold sweat oozed from his back, soaking the clothes on his back.He slumped down on the stool, his lips trembled, he took a deep breath, his eyes were a little dazed.

Being able to capture Xia Shengqing silently, and also make Xia Zijin unable to find anyone for so long, and even send him a message as if nothing had happened, is enough to show that the person hiding in the dark is powerful. Otherwise, even Xia Zijin would not be helpless .

"What is your Highness panicking?" An ethereal voice suddenly appeared in the room.

Xia Qixuan was thinking about something, and subconsciously responded, "This king is worried about whether this matter will be..."

In the middle of speaking, his throat suddenly seemed to be choked, and he uttered a horrified voice. He looked in shock at the woman in red who suddenly appeared in his room. On the couch, half bare shoulders, looking at him as if trying to seduce him.

But if he really thought so, he would definitely die. His body instinctively issued a warning, which made him retreat the moment the woman moved, and saw the woman in red appearing on the chair he was sitting on just now at an unbelievable speed. , Xia Qixuan's pupils contracted violently, trying to restrain the tension in his heart, "Who are you? How dare you assassinate this king?"

That's right, assassination, this woman's aura is unknown, in Xia Qixuan's view, she is an enemy rather than a friend.Absolutely not letting her get close is Xia Qixuan's only thought at the moment.Xia Qixuan took a deep breath, a cold light appeared in his eyes, he stared at her closely, his body stood up like a hedgehog with spikes all over his body, his palm was pressed on the hilt of the sword at his waist, as long as the woman in front of him moved a step, he would will shoot.

"It's a pity." The woman caressed the chair with her slender fingers, stretched out her delicate and small tongue to lick her bright red nails, and sneered, "I thought I could sit in His Highness's arms!"

Such actions obviously contained killing intent, but Xia Qixuan became impatient for no reason, and he wished he could immediately step forward and press the demon girl under his body, his face flushed.He was startled, and when he came back to his senses, the other party was already leaning in his arms, and his cold palm slid across his face like a snake.

Xia Qixuan's throat moved involuntarily, and he stared at her in a daze, but he didn't dare to move.

The woman in red giggled, her laughter was crisp, her palms touched the skin of his underwear, and her nails lightly brushed, "Your Highness really has a good figure, but today, Hongfu is here to talk about business , if not, I really want to taste the taste of the prince."

"You...you are presumptuous!" The woman's body fragrance and her movements stimulated Xia Qixuan all the time, his whole body seemed to be on fire, his face was red, and he spat out these things with all his might, his body went limp, Almost jumped on it.

However, it was obvious that this woman knew how to measure, she quickly got out of Xia Qixuan's arms, and stretched lazily, "Your Highness must have known that the news is true."

"How do you know!" Xia Qixuan blurted out, and then his expression sank, "Xia Shengqing is in your hands."

"You don't need to know whether it's in my hands or not. Your Highness just needs to know that Hongfu came to the capital this time to help His Highness." Hongfu picked up the teacup on the table and sipped it unceremoniously. a mouthful.

"Help me?" Xia Qixuan sneered, with obvious sarcasm in his eyes, "You think this king will believe you if you say that?"

"Whether His Highness believes it or not, if His Highness needs help, you can come to the Red Sleeve Pavilion to find me. The red lady is always waiting for the prince." The woman in red gave him a cool look, and got up and left the moment the words fell.

And during this whole process, there was no movement outside.Xia Qixuan stood there like an idiot, and it took him a long time to remember to call the hidden guard. The hidden guard outside heard the movement and appeared immediately. What's abnormal?"

"No, my lord, could it be that someone came in just now?" After the dark guard finished answering, he saw Xia Qixuan's gloomy face, he thought it was a bad idea, and hurriedly asked.

If something really happened to endanger Xia Qixuan just now, but he didn't realize it... Thinking of this possibility, the dark guard trembled all over, and his face turned pale.

Xia Qixuan originally planned to punish him, but judging from his appearance, he obviously didn't know about it. From this, it can be seen that the martial arts of the woman in red is absolutely extraordinary, and she was able to avoid the hidden guards and come in quietly.

The dark guard in front of him has been with him for the longest time, and his martial arts are also among the best among his subordinates, and he didn't even notice... Xia Qixuan slowly narrowed his eyes, and tapped his finger on the armrest twice, "No, this king just said it casually." Ask, you lead people to double the strength of the guards in the palace."

The dark guard keenly sensed something different, but Xia Qixuan was willing to let him go, and he couldn't wish for it, so naturally he bowed and retreated without asking anything.Xia Qixuan rubbed his brows wearily, sighed faintly, his eyes suddenly fell on the cup that Hong Fu drank from earlier, and there was a bright red lip print on the rim of the pure white cup.

As if staying on purpose to seduce him, Xia Qixuan picked up the cup of tea and took a sip at the same position.

After reacting, he smashed the cup to the ground with a bang, his eyes were resentful, his chest heaved uncontrollably, and he was terrified in his heart.I didn't expect that the woman would continue to influence him after she left.Xia Qixuan snorted coldly, put away his gaffe, "Come here, prepare water, the king wants to take a bath and change clothes."

The servant girls standing at the door responded immediately, and soon some servant girls filed in to help him take a bath.

----

And these, Xia Zijin didn't know at all.There should have been elders of the Wu clan watching Xia Qixuan for her.But the elder of the Wu Clan didn't really trust her in the first place, but was forced to be helpless under the poison. He had already studied how to cure the poison on his body during the days of compromise.

Now he is no longer afraid of Xia Zijin's threats, and as for not leaving Xia Qixuan, he just intends to give Xia Zijin a little bit of trouble.

In the Princess's Mansion, Mei Niang, who was preparing medicine for Xia Zijin, suddenly felt panicked, and a strong nausea rose from their backs. She immediately put down the medicine spoon, stepped back quickly, and sneered, "Hongfu, come here!" What are you doing here?"

Hongfu, that is, the woman in red, it is not surprising that she would avoid it.For Mei Niang's disgusted eyes, she pretended she didn't see it at all, and moved her lotus steps lightly, showing a sad look, "Sister, how can you say that? Anyway, we are also twin sisters. My sister came to see you, don't you?" happy?"

Facing her hypocritical attitude, Mei Niang gagged for a while and almost vomited, looking at her expression became vicious, "Sister? I don't have a shameless sister like you. Even my own master will not be spared."

"You are just a beast. Master has raised you and me for many years. Is that how you repay me?" Mei Niang asked heartbroken. When she thought of what happened many years ago, she felt like a knife was twisting her heart. She wished she could tear the seductive woman into pieces. Ten thousand paragraphs, there is no half of the warmth of sisters meeting each other.

But Hong Fu is obviously used to her eyes like this, and she is not afraid, she rolled her eyes, and sat on the stool carelessly, "What did my sister say, that old man only cares about you, my sister, and I will give you all the good things." You, I just read a secret book privately, and he will expel me from the teacher's school, but you can cultivate in an open and honest way. Such an old man is a waste of food to live, not to mention, you and I are the closest sisters, why do you bother? Speak for an outsider?"

"If my sister is willing to return to the Meimeng, I will always keep the position of the deputy head of the Meimeng for my sister." Hongfu didn't feel the cruelty of what she said. She threw an olive branch at Meiniang and looked at it with a smile looking at her.

Mei Niang's usually calm face showed a rare raging anger, pointing at her and yelling, "Although you and I are twin sisters, I am born with a beautiful body, practicing this exercise will not hurt myself, and you are just normal." Physique, if forced to cultivate, it will only backfire, and you have to use the man's Yuanyang to preserve your own internal strength. The master did this for your own good! But you didn't take it at all! You are really worse than a pig and a dog!"

Scolding such words, Mei Niang's heart is also bleeding.The person in front of her has the same appearance as her, and in her memory is the little sister who has been following her sweetly calling her sister, but at some point, she turned into this appearance.

Being scolded by her pointing her nose like this, Hongfu's face also turned cold, "Enough! Of course you would say that, you have been loved by your master since you were young, have you ever thought about my feelings, I just want to be like you , what am I doing wrong?"

What's more, what happened back then was not what you thought at all...

Hongfu closed her eyes slightly, thinking of the words she heard late that night, her heart trembled, she opened her eyes, and looked at Mei Niang with a complicated expression, before Mei Niang could see her expression clearly, she turned cold and stern again.

Mei Niang didn't pay attention to her subtle changes at all, she only thought about avenging her master.But since Hong Fu killed her master and took his internal energy, her strength has skyrocketed. Over the years, her martial arts has improved a lot. If she does something, she won't even be sure to keep the other party.

Hongfu glanced at her lightly, and raised the corners of her lips mockingly, "Forget it, a stupid person like you naturally wouldn't understand my thoughts. In that case, I've already seen my sister, so I'll leave first. Oh , By the way, my sister's human skin mask is so realistic that my sister can hardly see it."

"You!" Mei Niang's eyes widened, for no reason, she would never bring this up suddenly, "What did you do to Xia Shengqing?"

"What? Is my sister nervous when it comes to my sweetheart?" The anxiety in Mei Niang's eyes stung her involuntarily. , refused to care about my sister, I am really sad, in this case, it is better to let Mr. Xiao kill him."

With the last sentence, she suddenly raised her head, showed a treacherous smile at Mei Niang, stood up, and left with her clothes fluttering.

Mei Niang felt cold in her heart, but she was too fast to catch up, so she could only shout a warning, "If you dare to attack Xia Shengqing, I will never spare you."

These words fell into Hongfu's ears word by word, and the pain in her chest intensified involuntarily.Her complexion turned pale, and a rare expression of pain appeared on her originally seductive face, and she murmured softly, "Sister, defending him like this will make me really want to kill him!"

After she left, Mei Niang slumped down on the chair, panting heavily, sweating profusely, as if she had just been pulled out of the tub.

After she regained consciousness, she couldn't help frowning when she recalled Hong Fu's words.According to what Hong Fu said, Xia Shengqing was in the hands of a man named Xiao Gongzi, but she didn't remember that Xia Shengqing's opponent had the surname Xiao.

Even if there was, there was no such strength to abduct Xia Shengqing quietly.Mei Niang's expression couldn't help becoming dignified, after all kinds of considerations, she was going to go to Mei Yi to ask her clearly.

Mei Yi was resting on the bed, when she saw her coming, she immediately remembered the last time she molested her, and immediately pulled the quilt to cover herself, her ears were slightly red.Seeing his vigilant face, as if she was going to molest him, Mei Niang's mouth twitched.

But she came here today for business, so naturally she wouldn't argue with him.Seeing her businesslike appearance, Ying felt a sense of loss inexplicably in his heart.After he noticed his strangeness, he couldn't help being startled, and quickly put his mind away to listen to her in detail.

As for where she got the news from, Mei Niang didn't say, and Ying Yi didn't ask.The left and right are people Xia Shengqing trusts, she will not do anything that is not good for Xia Shengqing, it is really boring to ask more questions by herself.Of course, there is also a little selfishness that he himself has not noticed.

It's just a pity that he doesn't know Mr. Xiao.It's only because he only cared about Xia Shengqing's safety, and he was not sad about other things, so naturally he didn't know there was such a person as Xiao Fu.

In desperation, even though they didn't want to worry Xia Zijin because of this matter, if they gave up the clues they had finally obtained... After thinking about it, the two still felt that nothing was more important than Xia Shengqing's life.

At that moment, the two asked to see Xia Zijin together.Xia Zijin was worried about Xia Shengqing these days, and at the same time worried about the Sidi mission, and he was very haggard.Xin'er really couldn't see it, and forced her to rest.

Unexpectedly, before lying down for 5 minutes, Mei Niang and Ying Yi came to the door at the same time.Xin'er's expression darkened immediately, and she was the first to stop them, "The princess is resting."

"Xin'er, get out of the way, we have something urgent to find the princess." Mei Niang knew that she was worried about Xia Zijin, but she was not angry, instead, Ying Yi frowned slightly, with a slightly dissatisfied expression.

Xia Zijin had always been a light sleeper, but when she heard the voice outside, she subconsciously opened her eyes, and exhaled slowly, "Xin'er, let them in."

Mei Niang and Ying Yi will not come over to disturb her sleep properly, unless... there is news of Xia Shengqing.This thought made her energetic in an instant, and she sat up from the bed with support.Seeing that Xia Zijin was woken up, Xin'er couldn't help but glared at the two of them, so she had to push open the door first and go in to serve Xia Zijin.

"But there's news from Sheng Qing?" Xia Zijin's face was still pale. It can be seen that she was indeed very tired during this time, but she spoke steadily.

Mei Niang glanced at her worriedly, and the words twitched on the tip of her tongue before she spit out, "I found out that Xiao Qingzi was imprisoned by a young master Xiao, but I just went to find Mei Yi, and I never heard of it. I don’t know if the eldest princess has any impression of Xiao Qingzi’s enemies with the surname Xiao.”

"Is your surname Xiao?" Xia Zijin murmured to herself, closed her eyes, faces flashed across her mind, and suddenly settled on Xiao Fu, frowning slightly, "Is Xia Shengqing in Liang Guo?"

Mei Niang was surprised how she knew, but seeing her sharp eyes, she knew that it must be her question that made her guess something.At that moment, she and Ying looked at each other, and nodded honestly.

"Heh!" Xia Zijin sneered, for the first time hating himself for not killing Xiao Fu, a bastard, and letting him "repay" himself like this.

"This person is called Xiao Fu, and he doesn't know martial arts. It must have been ordered by someone. Looking at the past, I am afraid that only the Emperor Liang has such strength." Killing intent.

"Mei Yi, go and invite Rong Shizi here." Xia Zijin's dark eyes filled with guilt, if she had no other choice, she would never want Rong Yu to be involved.But the Emperor Liang would definitely be uneasy and kind, if the war broke out again, I don't know how many people would die. At that time, Rong Yu would also lead the army to fight, and he was still in a passive state.

Such a situation was not what Xia Zijin wanted to see.Instead, it is better to prepare in advance.Although she took advantage of Wei Ying's feelings for Rong Yu, she had no choice but to act urgently.

Xia Zijin exhaled, forcefully suppressing the guilt in his heart.Left and right, she just asked Wei Ying to find out the address for her, not really endangering her...

Mei Niang and Ying Yi looked at each other, although they didn't know what Xia Zijin wanted to do, but seeing her confident appearance, she knew that she must have made up her mind, she calmed down a little, wrote down the name Xiao Fu, and decided to go back and investigate clear.
