Lian Que stepped over.
Hands over: "Master Hou."
The gentle eyes of the Marquis of Nanguo gradually disappeared, and his face was slightly heavy.
Turn around and go in the direction of the rockery.
Go very slow!
Lian Que silently followed behind him.
The two are one after the other!
No one spoke.
After a short walk, I came to a place where no one was there.
The Marquis of Nanguo stopped before turning around and asking him, "Has Lord Chen reached a safe place?"
Lian Que replied: "My subordinate has ordered someone to send him to the place we arranged before. The journey is safe and there is no accident. At this time, it is estimated that he should have arrived, and Lord Hou can rest assured."
"That's good!" Nanguohou thought heavily, as if he was thinking about something
slow-
He said: "During this period of time, we must continue to send people to protect Mr. Chen, and we will talk about it after the storm is completely over."
"My subordinate understands!"
"Be careful."
"Understood! The subordinates will continue to send people to other adults' mansions as ordered by the Marquis, and take them away one by one before the incident happens, just in case!"
Nanguohou nodded!
keep walking.
Finally stopped by the lake behind the rockery.
The two figures were reflected on the water, slowly rippling with the water waves.
As the current situation is, it is turbulent.
Lian Que hesitated several times.
Want to say something, but don't know how to say it
Although the Marquis of Nanguo didn't look back at her, he seemed to know what he had to say, so he turned his eyes and asked him, "Is there anything else?" Lian Que took out the jade plaque engraved with "South" from his sleeve and handed it to him. He went up and said, "When my subordinate rescued Lord Chen that night, I met another group of people in the ruined temple, and when I was going to kill someone, this token fell from one of them. It is the token of Lord Hou, then
Withdrew immediately. "
When Nan Guohou saw this token, he was very shocked.
He has two in total!
Two years ago, he gave one of the pieces to a Dalin woman as a gift.
He took the token, but he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
"What does that person look like?"
Lian Que described according to his own memory, "white and clean, dressed in gray clothes, not tall, even a little thin."
"Is it a man?"
"right."
That's not right, because his benefactor was a woman with a veil.
Nanguohou asked again, "Then does she have a scar on her face?"
He remembered that the woman had a long scar on her face.
It was night and it was raining again, and the fire in the ruined temple was not bright. Although he could not clearly understand the appearance of the woman, he clearly remembered that there was a scar on the woman's face from the corner of the eye to the jaw.
Like a centipede crawling on it.
Lian Que shook her head, "No, there is no scar on that person's face, and there are no women or anyone with scars on her face among the people who traveled with her."
Therefore, that person is not his benefactor at all!
Nanguohou looked at the token in his hand and was very confused.
Why did the token he gave to his benefactor be on a man
Could it be... was the man who walked with the benefactor back then - Jing Rong
Lian Que was confused and asked, "Master Hou, your two tokens never leave your body. Why does that person have your token on him? Who are they?"
"It's a long story."
"My subordinates would like to hear the details."
The Marquis of Nanguo was silent for a while before he said, "You remember that my wife and I went to Dalin two years ago."
"Remember, in order to let King Huyi let down his guard against you, Lord Hou turned to business, and that's why he ran around." "That's right, when I went to Dalin for business, Madam insisted on following her all the way because she was worried. I know, my wife suddenly relapsed and passed away on the road, and my child who was less than one month was stillborn because of it. How did I know that I encountered heavy rain on the way back, so I could only shelter in a broken temple.
, I met a group of Dalin people inside, including a girl wearing a veil. She concluded that my child was not dead in the womb of my wife, so she cut her off, and then saved my child and named it Ahmad. . "
After hearing this, Lian Que was very shocked, but there was no expression on her face, she only said, "I haven't heard the Marquis mention it, so that's what happened."
"At that time, the most valuable thing I carried was this token, and I gave it to her as a thank you gift, and also promised that if she came to Huyi in the future, she would just come to me with the token, but I didn't expect that this parting, In two years, Ahmad has grown a lot."
"If according to what the Hou Ye said, that person is not at all, he is a man, and there is no scar on his face."
"But this token won't be fake!" Nan Guohou guessed, "It's been two years, maybe the scar on her face has healed, or maybe it's possible for her to disguise herself as a man for convenience. "
"When Lord Hou said this, I actually think that man really looks like a woman, no matter how he behaves or looks, it's a bit like that." Lian Que felt extremely guilty again, and immediately apologized, "If she is really Lord Hou In the words of the benefactor, the subordinate almost made a big mistake."
"What do you mean?" "After sending Master Chen away, the subordinates followed the group of people. They wanted to find out their identities, but they were shocked by the grass, which aroused suspicion from the other party. They fought in the inn and were injured. Fortunately, there were no casualties, and they also fled, and the subordinates were not able to chase after them, so they immediately rushed to the horse.
Whip back to report. "
The Nanguohou just made a deep voice, his eyes fixed on the water not far away.
With a tight palm, he held the token in his hand.
"I'm not sure whether that person is my benefactor. After all, I can't be sure from your description alone. However, this token will not deceive people."
"Master Hou, I think they should also come to Gaoding. If there is no delay on the way, they should arrive in the next two days."
As soon as he heard it, the Marquis of Nanguo immediately ordered, "Then pay more attention at the gate of the city these few days, and report them immediately when you see them entering the city."
"Yes!"
"Also, remember, don't leak out the whereabouts of this rescue of Lord Chen, otherwise, it will be very involved, and the dead will not be one or two."
"My subordinates know that there are no traces left, and it will not affect the Marquis. Besides, the king has always thought that the Marquis is not a threat and will not take precautions against the Marquis."
"But just in case."
"Yes."
Over the years, the Marquis of Nanguo pretended to be a pig and ate a tiger, and even King Huyi was fooled by him.
It is precisely because he has hidden his edge and has always lived in Gaoding City, which has not aroused the suspicion of King Hu Yi, otherwise, if King Hu Yi intends to kill, he will be the first person to die.
But how does the cruel king know that his Nanguohou will never forget the tragic scene in the palace more than 20 years ago! His sister disappeared with his nephew. For many years, under the guise of a trader, he searched everywhere, just for that glimmer of hope that might not exist at all.
