Li Yuanji's appearance relaxed the tense atmosphere a bit.
However, Li Renji's mood was now full of mixed emotions, mixed with fear, and he always felt that Yang Sanniu's words had a profound meaning.
Even though Li Yuanji explained easily, he was still not relieved.
After Li Renji entered the city, Yang Sanniu placed him in a heavily guarded mansion. Except for a few eunuchs and maids, there was no Xixia guard around him, but all soldiers.
This change made Li Renji panic again.
At this time, Li Yuanji explained to him that this was a normal operation of the Qianjun army, because he would receive the same treatment when he moved into Lanzhou City.
Although Li Renji believed it, it didn't mean he was really relieved.
Especially after Li Yuanji left, Yang Sanniu's words came to his mind again, ringing over and over again.
"Is this prince really abandoned?"
"Father and the imperial court really want to trade me for peace?"
"No, this is not true, it must not be." Li Renji sat in the room talking to himself, constantly denying it, but no matter how hard he tried to comfort himself, he still couldn't completely feel at ease.
I saw him holding a package in his hand, and suddenly glanced outside the door, grabbing the package uneasily, as if he was on guard against something.
"That person must have deliberately lied to me. My father's imperial edict is in my hands. As long as I return to Beijing in three years, I will be the crown prince..." Li Renji hugged the package, and his uneasy heart was finally comforted.
"Your Highness, Your Highness..."
The next day, there was a knock on Li Renji's door, but because he left Xixia for the first time, he didn't sleep last night and fell asleep in the early morning, so he didn't respond at all.
Eunuch Wang Hong pressed against the door, wanting to check what was going on inside.
But he looked around and found nothing.
"Chief Wang, there is no sound inside. Do you think something has happened to His Highness?" Wang Fang, the young eunuch on the side, said with a trembling voice.
"Nonsense!" Wang Fang's words had just finished, and Wang Hong immediately scolded him, "You little slave, in the clear sky, for saying such unlucky words, are you cursing His Highness the eldest prince?"
Wang Hong cursed loudly, maybe because he felt angry, or because he felt that the punishment was not enough, he raised his foot and kicked him hard...
While beating the person, he also threatened, "You damn killer, if you dare to talk nonsense again, I will kill you."
"General Manager, have mercy on me, General Manager, have mercy on me..." Wang Fang kowtowed in fear and begged for mercy, hoping that the other party could forgive him for his unintentional act.
In fact, Wang Fang just said it casually, but she didn't expect Wang Hong's reaction to be so big. While getting angry, she didn't forget to kick him hard.
Wang Fang felt that he was wronged, but even if he felt wronged, he did not dare to complain at this time, because Wang Hong always kept his word, and had ordered someone to beat to death a disobedient slave in the eldest prince's palace before. Now even though he has left the eldest prince's mansion, he is still under his jurisdiction.
In other words, Wang Hong has the power to kill, and he can kill Wang Fang at will if he is not satisfied.
In fact, Wang Hong suddenly became furious because he was frightened when he entered the city yesterday, which made him feel that his life was threatened at any time. He was already restless and worried about Li Renji's accident, but now Wang Fang actually muttered this matter in front of him, which ultimately led to Wang Hong's death. angry.
"Get up and be strict with your mouth. Don't say such self-destructive words in the future. Otherwise, if you hit His Highness, even I won't be able to protect you." Wang Hong hit and scolded him. After finally losing his anger, his tone softened. , and asked Wang Fang to get up, but he did not forget to remind Wang Fang to behave more appropriately in the future to avoid getting himself killed.
"Thank you, Chief Steward. Thank you, Chief Steward..." Wang Fang burst into tears of gratitude and kowtowed repeatedly to express her gratitude.
Several people were muttering outside the door for so long, and finally woke up Li Renji who was sleeping, "Who is talking outside the door again?"
A voice suddenly came from the back room, and it was Li Renji's voice.
"Your Highness, you are a slave, Hong..." Wang Hong whispered.
"What are you doing here so early?" Li Renji's dissatisfied voice came out. Because he didn't sleep well last night, Li Renji didn't know that it was already noon.
"Your Highness, General Daqian Lingyun has summoned you!" Although Wang Hong was doubtful, he still told the business first.
"Got it!" Li Renji suddenly sobered up after hearing this.
He already knew who Ling Yun was.
Even the opponent was the general of Daqian. He was also the commander-in-chief of Ganjun who defeated their Xixia army and was helpless. The most important thing is that it was this person who named him to go to Daqian as a hostage. It can be said that Ling Yun He is his lifelong enemy.
