"King Xi?!" Chen Shaoxuan's expression changed upon hearing this, he squinted his eyes and stared at Shi Hao closely, as if he wanted to see the authenticity of what he said on his face.
He was already very wary when Shi Hao found him and asked him for someone so sure. But now, he suddenly brought King Xi out to talk about something. He thought it was a trap - Qin Hui's bait to catch people. After all,
Shi Hao was an official of the imperial court. If he wanted to hide his secrets and cross the sea to Xiuzhou, only Qin Hui could do it.
"Why, you suspect that I am Qin Hui's man?" A sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of Shi Hao's lips, and he did not hesitate to break Chen Shaoxuan's suspicion.
When Chen Shaoxuan heard this, he remained calm and said with a calm smile: "Whose sir does it have to do with me? I am just a commoner, just like your sir warned me, I will not interfere in the affairs of the court."
"If you really don't interfere, then you should hand Leng Changxi over instead of trying every means to keep her safe." Shi Hao was not a light saver either.
"Master Shi, although I have some friendship with Leng Changxi, we only met a few times when we were in Jiazhou, and it was because of the business contacts between the two families. Now I have gone to the Chen Family Jiaozi Shop in Xiuzhou
I think it's a bit ridiculous to care about someone else." No matter who Shi Hao belongs to, Chen Shaoxuan is determined not to let him see her. Even if it is really Prince Xi's, Leng Changxi should have come to the door, not them first.
He came here, unless he had other plans. Thinking of this, Chen Shaoxuan suddenly felt frightened.
"It seems that Mr. Chen doesn't want me to see Leng Changxi no matter what." Shi Hao was so transparent, how could he not know what Chen Shaoxuan was thinking, but he was not in a hurry, knowing that if he pushed too hard, it would be counterproductive.
, if Chen Shaoxuan feels unsafe and takes Leng Changxi away, then he will lose more than he gains.
"How can we meet each other without this person?" Chen Shaoxuan snorted coldly.
"We know each other whether there is such a person. It's okay if we don't meet. I just asked Mr. Chen to bring me a message and tell Leng Changxi that Shi Hao is here to find her. If you want to know the news about Zhao Yuan, go there in person at noon.
Shi Haoding will welcome you at the palace." Shi Hao finished his words and turned around to leave.
Chen Shaoxuan frowned tightly. He didn't know whether he should bring this to Leng Changxi. If he went to Prince Xi's Mansion at noon, wouldn't it be clear that Leng Changxi would be exposed to the eyes of those chasing soldiers? But if this
It's a trap, so there's no need to go to Prince Xi's Mansion. Wouldn't it be easier to just find another place?
While Chen Shaoxuan was thinking hard about Shi Hao's purpose, a gust of wind suddenly blew out of the inner room. In the blink of an eye, a figure was standing in front of him: "Shaoxuan, is the person who just came here Shi Hao?"
When Chen Shaoxuan heard this, he raised his head and glanced coldly at Yu Feng, who was hiding in the corner. Yu Feng turned to look at Ling Feng, who was leaning on the door frame of the inner room. Chen Shaoxuan immediately understood who had told Leng Changxi what he said.
"Do you know him?" Chen Shaoxuan heard from Leng Changxi's tone that he and Shi Hao seemed to be old acquaintances, which made Chen Shaoxuan curious.
"I met him at Leng's house. He used to come to Leng's house on the fifteenth day of every month to teach brother Yuan. But every time it was a face-to-face meeting and never a conversation." Leng Changxi didn't need to hide anything from Chen Shaoxuan, she told the truth.
told him.
"He taught Zhao Yuan?" Chen Shaoxuan was secretly surprised.
"Well, according to him, he was ordered to teach. But as far as I know, when the emperor assigned brother Yuan to the Leng family, he was determined not to send anyone to teach him." Leng Changxi frowned. Regarding this point, she has learned about it over the years.
One of the mysteries that has never been solved.
"No wonder..." Chen Shaoxuan had a look of understanding on his face, narrowed his eyes, and said softly: "His orders are from King Xi."
Hearing this, Leng Changxi's color suddenly changed. When she thought deeply, a possibility emerged in her mind, which made her more and more surprised. She looked at Chen Shaoxuan with wide eyes and murmured: "Could it be, could it be..."
"Yes!" Chen Shaoxuan nodded slightly: "He is here today and asked you to go to Prince Xi's Mansion to meet him at noon."
"Yeah." Chen Shaoxuan nodded slowly: "King Xi took the initiative to ask Shi Hao to come to see you at this time. I always feel that it is not simple, and it does not seem like he simply wants to protect you. What's more, let you go there at noon? I'm afraid there is something fishy in it!
"
Chen Shaoxuan slowly expressed his worries, and Leng Changxi's starry eyes were half closed, as if she was deep in thought.
"To go or not to go?" Chen Shaoxuan clenched his fists, and even he couldn't make a decision at the moment.
After a long time, Leng Changxi looked up at him firmly and said: "Go! Of course you go!"
"Okay, then I'll go get ready and send you there when the time comes. There must be ambushes around Prince Xi's Mansion, so it's better to keep your face." Chen Shaoxuan looked at her deeply, and seeing her persistence, the words of persuasion came to his lips.
All words have been changed.
"There is no need to disguise myself, I want to change back into women's clothing! This disguised appearance cannot be easily known to others, it will come in handy at critical moments." Leng Changxi had a cold smile on her lips: "It's really for my own good,
There’s still something fishy going on, you’ll find out after a while!”
Then, she told Chen Shaoxuan what she had planned.
Chen Shaoxuan always thought that he would still have time to be with Leng Changxi until the city was safe, but he did not expect that the separation would come so suddenly. Seeing that he could not stop her determination, Chen Shaoxuan felt melancholy in his heart and had to soften his voice.
, gave two instructions: "I will stay in Xiuzhou until Zhao Yuan comes to find you. So if anything happens, let Lingfeng and the others notify me, you know?"
"Shaoxuan..." Leng Changxi has always been grateful for Chen Shaoxuan's support regardless of the reason no matter what she does. This feeling is too heavy for her to bear. She doesn't know how to repay it. Sometimes, she
She even hoped that Chen Shaoxuan could go away and leave her alone, which might make her feel better.
"Who made us friends? I am the most loyal person! Besides, the relationship between the Chen Leng family and the Chen Leng family has always been good. They have taken good care of you. If the old man of the Leng family is happy, won't the business between the two families be better?
"Chen Shaoxuan was transparent and naturally saw the guilt in her heart. He smiled impishly, stretched out his hand to ruffle the top of her hair, and said deliberate words to dispel the feeling of debt in her heart.
Leng Changxi naturally understood the good intentions behind his words, so she suppressed this gratitude deep in her heart, smiled mischievously, raised her fist and punched him on the shoulder gently: "Then there is
What's the problem? When I go back, I will report your heroic actions to my father! I'll give you some grease then!"
Chen Shaoxuan was amused by Leng Changxi's nondescript words. He gently flicked his finger on her forehead and said, "Go and clean up quickly!"
At nearly noon, Leng Changxi restored her women's clothing with Lingshan's skillful dressing. She wore a fiery red phoenix-tail moire skirt and a black wide-sleeved gauze coat, which set off her stunning face. It was a kind of
The ultimate beauty.
The door of Leng Changxi's house slowly opened. When she walked out of the house, Li Xueyan, who had been lingering in the courtyard, slowly raised his head and looked at her with eyes filled with surprise and a touch of bitter sadness.
"Are you all ready?" It was rare for Leng Changxi to dress up like this. Chen Shaoxuan was fascinated by her gorgeous outfit.
Leng Changxi took a deep breath and slowly closed her eyes. When she opened them again, a cold and noble aura suddenly erupted from her body. She nodded calmly and said, "Let's go!"
