Wang Tong was overjoyed, with endless regrets and self-blame on his face. He knelt down with a plop, his eyes red: "I have been a city gate official for twenty years. I have devoted myself to my duties and never slackened off. I am even more loyal to the court.
How can it give rise to a different mind?"
"These gangsters used Yang Gou'er to get close to the general, and they must want to frame the general."
"Thanks to the prince's timely action, he killed the gangsters and saved the general from the fire and water. I will never thank you for the great kindness. From now on, the life of the general will belong to the prince. As long as the prince has an assignment, the general will go through fire and water without hesitation!"
As he spoke, he kowtowed three times.
Xu Jing's eyes flashed and he opened his mouth and said: "Xu San, go and help General Wang get up. Don't worry, General Wang. Since I have extended my hand, I will take care of this matter to the end and will never let General Wang suffer the injustice."
Wronged."
His tone revealed the unique pride and self-respect of the feudal prince.
Xu San responded and reached out to help Wang Tong up.
Wang Tong was grateful and thanked him again.
Xu Jing added: "General Wang, please take care of the corpses of these gangsters and send them to the Yamen."
Then he walked away.
The injured soldiers were helped away. Those who had died were carried or carried by the soldiers. They walked away cleanly in just a few breaths.
Wang Tong stood there, looking at the direction Xu Jing and his group were leaving, his expression changing.
The confidant said in a low voice: "General, are you just going to let them go like this?"
Otherwise?
Xu Jing himself has outstanding skills and has so many personal soldiers. If they really fight, his side may not be the opponent.
Furthermore, Xu Jing is the prince of Beihai and has a distinguished status. If anything goes wrong, the court will be alarmed.
There is a way to live now, but we cannot seek death.
Wang Tong withdrew his gaze and ordered in a deep voice: "Find two carriages and send these corpses to the Yamen."
It's late at night, and we're at the city wall again. Where can we find a carriage?
The soldiers walked around, but in desperation, they had to send a few unlucky guys to carry the corpses on their backs. There were more than a dozen corpses along the way, and they had to be taken away one by one.
…
Xu Jing ran all the way.
The night wind brought a chill and hit my face.
Xu Jing didn't feel cold at all. He ran with all his strength, his blood rushing rapidly, and beads of sweat on his forehead and nose. The soldiers who were supporting the injured were quickly left behind, and Xu San and others followed closely behind him.
The familiar alley finally appeared in front of me.
The Zhao family's carriage stopped quietly where it was.
The corpses were piled in one place, and two strong men who looked like soldiers were staring at the carriage. When they heard the noisy footsteps, the two royal soldiers were immediately alarmed. They each pulled out their weapons and shouted: "Who is it?"
Xu San frowned and kicked the two annoying Wang family soldiers aside: "Get away!"
Xu Jing walked quickly to the carriage without even looking at them. His heart almost burst out of his chest. His voice was urgent and slightly trembling: "Sister Yue Ya'er, are you okay?"
There was a soft "hmm" in the carriage.
Xu Jing's eyes felt a little hot.
Before, he was hot-headed and chased the gangsters regardless. He never thought how dangerous it would be for Yue Yaer's sister to stay here alone!
That Wang Tong, who was colluding with the gangsters, had ulterior motives. Once he had murderous intentions... thinking of this, he was terrified, and his back was covered in cold sweat.
Fortunately, Yue Ya'er is safe and sound.
It's all his fault!
From now on, no matter when and where he goes, he will never abandon her.
Xu Jing wiped his eyes hard, opened the car door, and jumped up. He stepped on something foreign, and there was a weak cry of pain under his feet.
Xu Jing's brows twitched, and he moved his feet to take a look. He was startled and quickly raised his eyes to look at Zhao Xiyan: "This is..."
Zhao Xiyan nodded slightly.
Xu Erwu quickly took action and pressed hard on the neck of the black-clothed gangster. The black-clothed gangster fainted again after being awakened by the pain.
Xu Jing ignored this and asked anxiously: "Are you really okay? Did Wang Tong do anything to you?"
The light inside the carriage was so dim that it was almost impossible to see.
Zhao Xiyan opened the car window and looked at Xu Jing in the moonlight.
The blood on his body must have belonged to the gangster, and the dried blood on his face belonged to someone else. He was not hit by the arrow and was safe in front of her eyes.
Zhao Xiyan suddenly felt sour in her heart. She wanted to say something, but her lips moved, but nothing came out. Tears welled up in the corners of her eyes.
For some reason, Xu Jing also wanted to cry.
They were so close at hand, so close, but it seemed like they were separated by thousands of mountains and rivers and traveled through countless years before they finally saw each other.
He reached out and hugged her.
This time, Zhao Xiyan did not dodge or hit him. She leaned her face against his chest, her shoulders trembled, and she cried silently.
There was an inexplicable dull pain in his heart. He stretched out his hand to wipe her tears and whispered in her ear: "I'm here! I have everything with me. Yueyue'er, don't be afraid."
Zhao Xiyan's tears became more and more violent.
Xu Jing hugged her trembling body, his nose felt sore, and he cried quietly.
Xu Erwu had already turned his head and turned his back to his master.
Hosta, whose eyes were red and swollen, hesitated for a moment and silently turned her head to the side.
Everything that happened tonight is really terrible! The young lady must be very frightened, so let the prince comfort the young lady!
…
Zhao Xiyan didn't cry for long.
While they were drinking tea, she pushed Xu Jing away, wiped away her tears with her sleeves, and took out the clean handkerchief she brought with her to wipe Xu Jing's face.
Xu Jing cleared his throat and opened his mouth awkwardly: "A man, if you bleed, you won't shed tears. I see that you can cry vigorously, so I will stay with you. You are not allowed to tell others."
The last sentence is fierce.
Zhao Xiyan pursed her lips and smiled, revealing a small dimple: "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone."
Only then was Xu Jing satisfied, and he put the handkerchief into his arms very easily.
Xu Erwu seemed to have eyes on the back of his head, and turned around at this moment: "Did the prince catch up with the scarred face?"
This bastard, he won’t pick up any pot!
Xu Jing glared at him angrily: "The scar-faced man was picked up by the city wall and ran away."
Zhao Xiyan stiffened slightly and sighed secretly.
Zhou Sui was cunning, suspicious, and ruthless. It would not be easy to kill him.
Xu Jing had been staring at Zhao Xiyan from the corner of his eyes. At this moment, he suddenly turned his head and looked at her: "Do you know that Scarface?"
Zhao Xiyan did not deny it and nodded: "Yes!"
Tonight, Xu Jing lost several soldiers and was almost injured by gangsters. She owed Xu Jing an explanation.
Xu Jing was silent for a moment and did not ask any more questions.
Wang Tong will come at any time, and it is not suitable to stay here for a long time. At this moment, it is not a good time to get to the bottom of it. Right now, there are more important things.
"Send the order, the soldiers who died in the battle will be buried overnight, and the injured will immediately return to the Beihai Palace for treatment."
