Chapter 426: Hands-on (two more) (1/2)
Chapter 426 Hands-on (two more)
King Ning suddenly stretched out his hand, grabbed the princess by the neck, and pushed her against the big tree: ”You can tell me clearly!”
The princess seemed to know that he would not really strangle herself near the Jinluan Temple, so she didn't have much fear, and sneered: ”What? Say you didn't kill Xiao Heng, or did Xiao Heng not return to the capital alive?”
After that, she took away his hand that was holding her neck, ”Chunying, let's go!”
Chunying glanced at the two with a guilty conscience, followed the princess and left with small steps.
Ning Wang leaned on the tree with one hand, his eyes were cold.
”Pray for flying.”
he called.
The confidant who was called Qifei came over, and said, ”Master!”
King Ning put down his hand supporting the big tree, looked at the direction of the Jinluan Temple with a cool look, and said with thin lips, ”Go and check, anyone has been in and out of the Jinluan Temple within half an hour.”
”Yes!”
Qi Fei moved quickly, contacted their eyeliner in Chaozhong, and almost effortlessly found out the list that King Ning needed.
On the carriage, Qi Fei reported the names to King Ning one by one.
”...Cabinet Master Kong, Master Xu from the Ministry of War, Master Zhao from the Ministry of Industry, Master Yuan Shoufu, Huo Jijiu... written by Xiao Xiu.”
King Ning touched the jade finger on his thumb and said, ”Who is Huo Jijiu and who?”
Qi Fei said: ”Written by Xiao Xiu of the Hanlin Academy, this year's new champion, seems to be called... Xiao Liulang.
Wang Ning thoughtfully: ”Is that the one who looks like Master Xiaohou?”
Qi Fei nodded: ”Yes, it's him!”
Xiao Liulang's appearance in the court is no secret. The people may not have heard of it. People like Prince Kening still have heard of it.
was born in the countryside, but went through five passes and cut six generals all the way, and was admitted to the Imperial College with excellent results. For the first time, Chunwei became the champion of the new division.
Some people say that his achievements are based on Xuan Pinghou's relationship. Xuan Pinghou lost his beloved son, and chanced upon a person who looked so similar to his son. It is inevitable that he would love him.
No one ever suspected that he was Xiao Heng, because Xiao Heng was already dead.
This is something everyone believes in.
As for Xiao Liulang, King Ning actually knew more than ordinary people. For example, the queen mother was not in the palace to recuperate, she was a homeless man, and during that period, she was saved by Xiao Liulang and Gu Jiao.
It doesn't matter whether Xiao Liulang relied on his own hard power or relied on the promotion of his majesty or the queen mother.
is not the real Xiao Heng, King Ning would not care about him.
Xiao Heng is dead, so Xiao Liulang will never be Xiao Heng no matter what.
But if Xiao Heng is not dead, only Xiao Liulang will be Xiao Heng!
”Master, there are a few more later, do you want to listen?” Qi Fei asked.
”No need.” King Ning rubbed the jade finger on his thumb, ”check the relationship between Huo Jijiu and Xiao Liulang.”
He couldn't tell whether Wen Linlang's words were true, and he couldn't just listen to her words.
It is not difficult to check this.
Before returning to the Imperial College, it was relatively easy for Lao Jijiu to conceal his whereabouts, but now he is an official in the court, and the vision of the people entering the world has increased, leaving more clues.
In addition, the people at Guozijian think that Laojijiu and Xiao Liulang are dealing with Xiao Liulang because he feels that he is like his departed lover, no one doubts, so naturally you don't have to bother to cover it.
After only two days of work, Qi Fei found out about the old Jijiu living next door to Xiao Liulang.
”His name is Old Jijiugu Grandpa.” Qi Fei said.
Ning Wang frowned.
If he remembers correctly, Xiao Liulang and Gu Jiao call the queen mother aunt.
The Queen Mother and Huo Jijiu...
King Ning frowned anxiously: ”Go on!”
”Yes.” Qi Fei said, ”Xiao Liulang's family moved to Bishui Hutong first, and then Huo Jijiu moved there.”
Ning Wangdao: ”Is it before or after Huo Jijiu returned to the Imperial College?”
Qi Fei said: ”Before.”
Ning Wang's heart suddenly raised a bold guess.
Xiao Heng was killed in the fire, Huo Xian's heart was ashamed, and he resigned and left Beijing.
Ning Wang originally thought that Huo Xian returned to Beijing because His Majesty invited him out of the mountain again, but it seems that this may not be the case right now.
It was because of Xiao Liulang that he returned to the Imperial College in a sad place.
The place where his beloved disciple was burnt to death, how did he feel in the mood to get value every day?
Looking at Princess Xinyang, she knows that she has not dared to return to the princess mansion so far. Isn’t she afraid of being hurt by the scene?
In the past, King Ning ignored this detail because he firmly believed that Xiao Heng was dead, and he would no longer doubt everything related to Xiao Heng.
Now when I think about it, it is really flawed.
If Xiao Heng is still alive, Huo Jijiu's behavior and reaction will be all justified.
The king of Ning touched the jade pull finger, his eyes were deep: ”Xiao Heng, the young man sacrifices wine, Xiao, Hou, and Lord!”
……
Hanlin Academy.
”Rokuro, Rokuro, Rokuro!”
Xiao Liulang suddenly woke up from his sleep, opened his eyes and looked up, only to see that Ning Zhiyuan was standing at his table with a look of error, and the hand poking his shoulder was too late to withdraw.
”Are you okay?” Ning Zhiyuan looked at him weirdly, ”Is it uncomfortable because of sweat? Didn't you rest last night?”
Xiao Liulang replied vaguely: ”Sleep too late.”
Ning Zhiyuan suddenly realized: ”No wonder, I said why I haven't seen you after so long. Don't be like this next time. Let Han Xueshi grab you and have you delicious.”
Xiao Liulang didn't doze off at the high hour, he just lay down on the table for a while when the hour came.
I just didn’t expect him to dream of the fire on New Year’s Eve.
He hadn't dreamed of the fire for a long time, and thought he would forget it, but the fire and despair in the dream were so clear that it was suffocating.
”Are you coming to see me for something?” Xiao Liulang asked.
”I can't come to you if I'm okay?” Ning Zhiyuan raised his eyebrows and smiled, ”It's really something, I have a drink at night, can I go?”
”Don't go.” Xiao Liulang refused without thinking.
Ning Zhiyuan sighed, and said, ”Hey, you kid! I'm doing it for you, and Master Han is also going. It's a serious place. Don't you want to fight for the position of attending school? You must have a good relationship with Dr. Han.”
”Don't go.” Xiao Liulang still refused.
”Fine, no, no, no, young, how can I be more afraid of my wife than me.” Ning Zhiyuan muttered a few words, and went to the banquet alone.
On the other side of the hospital, Gu Jiao also had a dream.
In fact, she may not have dreamed for a long time, but this time it was no accident that she had dreamed of Xiao Liulang again.
Xiao Liulang lost his value, and came out of the imperial courtyard, and there was heavy snow in the sky.
Xiao Liulang went to the bakery that sold dried plums to buy some raw dried plums, packed them in food boxes and took them home, but was chased by a group of assassins halfway through.
Xiao Liulang was not a martial artist, and he couldn't beat him. However, he threw off the assassin with his excellent resourcefulness. Unfortunately, he fell on the way to escape, fainted, and injured his hand.
Because of the delay in the best time for treatment, his right hand was already lost when he was sent to the hospital.
After waking up, Gu Jiao was very calm: ”It's worthy of my mate. The enemy can never hurt you, but you are so retrograde.”
Snowing day.
That should be too early.
It’s only August now.
But she remembered the appearance of the assassins. Everyone had an emblem on their knife, like a certain Jianghu organization.
Gu Jiao asked herself that Xiao Liulang had not offended anyone in the world, so as long as there is one possibility-hire a murderer.
Gu Jiao decided to go to Gu Chengfeng to ask which Jianghu organization that emblem belongs to, and to look at them to see who was trying to murder Xiao Liulang a few months later.
