The Rescue Of The Tragic Villain Is In Progress

Chapter 44: The plan begins Gu Cong Palace

Views:

"I have received news from the palace that the emperor is going to send five people to Shuofang to wipe out the rebels. He will draft an order soon. Shuofang is far away from the capital, and the battlefield is full of swords and spears, which is perfect for me to ambush on the way."

As soon as Chu Xinian left, the prince slowly put away his frivolous appearance. Although he was still careless, his eyes were unfathomable. But for some reason, he did not call Emperor Yan "father", but just called him "Your Majesty" like everyone else.

The prince believed in wiping out the enemy completely, let alone an enemy as poor as the Prince of Jin.

"This is not difficult. The King of Jin is on good terms with me. He is new to the army and has few connections. It would be easy for him to set an ambush."

On the point of killing, Prince Xie Jingyuan reached a high degree of consensus. He put his fist to his lips, suppressing the cough in his throat. When he lowered his eyes, his sight accidentally fell on the door. He frowned and seemed a little absent-minded.

The prince thought about his marriage: "I was only confined for three months, and Concubine Mei has created such a big obstacle to harm you. The new hatred and old hatred are really hard to let go. I will go to the palace to ask the emperor to cancel this marriage."

Xie Jingyuan frowned and said coldly: "Your Highness will show off your strength, which will only make the emperor dislike you even more."

When this marriage was granted, did Xie Jingyuan or Quyang Houfu object? But what's the use? The emperor's will has been decided and cannot be disobeyed.

"He never really had a son like me."

The prince got up from his seat and thought about the scene when he was just a child: "This person is not simple. At first glance, you can tell that he is unfathomable. I also brought a counselor for you, but it turned out to be a big trouble."

"Big trouble?" Xie Jingyuan raised his eyebrows and chewed on the two words without commenting.

"I have always heard that Chu Jiaoping, the eldest son of the Marquis of Quyang, is resourceful and intelligent. Last year, at the banquet for all the heroes, I saw that he was indeed extraordinary. I wanted to recruit him, but unfortunately he has already joined the fold of the King of Jin. Today, I saw that his younger brother seems to be even more extraordinary."

The prince felt a little awkward.

"Jingyuan, if he is a fool, then keep him, but if he is a spy sent by the other side, then I will make you poor."

After he finished speaking, he fell back into his chair, sitting awkwardly, and slowly made a throat-cutting gesture to Xie Jingyuan. Although he looked nonchalant, Xie Jingyuan knew that he was serious.

"Keep him and don't kill him." Xie Jingyuan only said these five words.

The prince paused after hearing this and looked at him suspiciously: "Why?"

Xie Jingyuan frowned: "He is still useful."

The prince didn't say anything, just stared at him motionlessly. After a while, he said, "Jingyuan, I thought you had changed a lot, but you really look like your father. It turns out that blood is something that is in your bones..."

He was in a trance for a moment, muttering to himself: "Will I become like him?"

The prince was vague in his words, hiding his thoughts that only he knew.

Xie Jingyuan changed the subject: "Your Highness has just been released from house arrest, and the palace is watching you. You shouldn't come here so brazenly at this time."

The prince sneered: "If I am careful and cautious, he will find it strange. Anyway, everyone in the court knows that you are my disciple. Who are you trying to show by deliberately distancing yourself from me?"

He shook his sleeves and said, "Alright, it's getting late, I'll go back to the palace first. Prince Jin will definitely send someone to inquire about the situation today, don't let them take advantage of you."

Xie Jingyuan pushed open the door and sent him out. He could tell what he meant by that: "Who are you referring to, Your Highness?"

The prince stood on the steps and stretched himself: "Of course it's the one you don't want to kill."

It means “unwilling to kill”, not “not killing”.

The addition of the word "wish" has a completely different meaning. This word is like a knife, easily cutting open the private thoughts hidden deep in Xie Jingyuan's heart, hiding them under the scorching sun.

Upon hearing this, Xie Jingyuan tightened his fingertips, his expression fierce, and he said word by word: "If he makes any unusual moves, I will kill him with my own hands!"

He was speaking to the prince and also to himself.

The prince stretched his muscles and said nothing. It was unclear whether he believed it or not. The eunuch next to him was stunned and patted his hat: "What are you doing? Hurry up and prepare the carriage. I'm angry when I see you idiots."

After saying this, he said hello to Xie Jingyuan and returned to the palace.

Xie Jingyuan stood alone on the steps, watching him go away. He didn't know what he was thinking, and his mind was somewhat confused by the prince's words. He frowned and looked at the attendant beside him, and asked suddenly, "Where is he?"

The attendant was stunned, not knowing who he was talking about.

Xie Jingyuan's expression was gloomy, and he gritted his teeth and spat out three words: "Chu Xinian."

The attendant finally responded: "Chu... Master Chu is..."

He actually didn't know where Chu Xinian was, and he stuttered for a long time without coming up with an answer.

"idiot."

Xie Jingyuan scolded and strode towards his residence. As soon as he passed through the Moon Gate, he saw Chu Xinian sitting on the steps of the door with a stack of papers on his knees, writing something with his head down.

The juniper trees planted in the yard were chopped and twisted, as if they had been robbed.

Xie Jingyuan paused and couldn't help but stop where he was.

Just now when he was discussing matters in the room, Chu Xinian had finished the rest of the experiments and was writing a summary of the experiments. He was keenly aware of the gazes on him and subconsciously looked up. It was Xie Jingyuan.

"General?"

Chu Xinian subconsciously got up from the ground and brushed off the dust on his body: "Has the prince left?"

He did nothing, just stood there, letting something quietly fall back into his throat.

Xie Jingyuan chuckled, still with that unpredictable and weird smile: "I even went back to your Quyang Marquis Mansion for you."

"What will happen to the general if I leave?"

Chu Xinian lowered his head to sort out his experimental manuscript and replied casually. Anyway, he would not go back easily before the task was completed. There were still many things he had not studied clearly.

Upon hearing this, Xie Jingyuan looked disdainful, snorted coldly with a fake smile, and turned back to the house.

Chu Xinian was about to follow when the system beeped again:

Ding, please pay attention, the villain's blackness has dropped to 96

He paused, took a beat and asked the system, "Why did it drop?"

The system hummed: If I knew, I would have told you long ago that you have to work hard to complete the task.

But it had led a host before, so it was not completely inexperienced with this kind of thing. It was thinking something, but suddenly it exclaimed in surprise: "Ah! I know!"

Chu Xinian raised his eyebrows: "Know what?"

The system made a circle: Whoever Xie Jingyuan likes, you help him to get her, and his evilness will naturally decrease!

Chu Xinian frowned: "How do I know who he likes?"

There is no love line in "Qianqiu Fenghou" at all. Who could Xie Jingyuan like

System: This is up to you to explore.

Chu Xinian knew it was unreliable, so he was half-believing and half-doubting. At this moment, a skylark suddenly passed through the archway, avoiding everyone's eyes and ears, and walked towards him quickly: "Sir."

Yun Que frowned, unable to hide her worry, and lowered her voice and said, "I just went to Yuhen Pavilion to take a look. Since the Crown Prince left, there are many more people guarding there. Jiuyong is patrolling back and forth with the palace soldiers. I'm afraid it's not easy to steal the things we want."

Chu Xinian was not surprised. He stuffed the experimental manuscript in his sleeve, lowered his eyes and said calmly: "In this case, let's go to Yuhen Pavilion tonight to take a look."

Yun Que was startled and subconsciously planned to take action for him tonight: "Sir, there are many masters in the general's mansion. Even if I put on my nightgown, I can only get ten meters away at most. It is better to wait until he relaxes his vigilance before making plans."

Chu Xinian smiled and shook his head: "No, I will go there myself tonight."

Yun Que felt it was impossible and spoke out to stop him: "A son of a rich family should not sit in the hall. You don't know martial arts, how can you go there in person? General Xie has already given Jiuyong a death sentence. Anyone who dares to approach Yuhen Pavilion will be killed without mercy."

Even if he entered Yuhen Pavilion, he might not be able to find the list of soldiers. There were many hidden traps inside, and he might be captured before he could find it.

Chu Xinian seemed to have a plan in mind. He whispered something in Yun Que's ear, handed over the task, and said, "... Just do as I say. You find the things and leave the rest to me."

Yun Que looked confused, not knowing what he meant, but could only nod and agree: "Yes."

At night, the general's mansion was guarded more strictly. Xie Jingyuan took the medicine prescribed by the doctor at night, but found that the furnishings in the room had changed slightly, and the green stem trees outside had been chopped down.

He stroked the edge of the medicine bowl with his fingertips, looked up at the man in white who was lying on the couch reading a book, and said in a cold tone: "Chu Xinian, are you trying to tear down my general's mansion and rebel?"

It’s fine if you just play with cats and dogs, or catch ants, but why do you spend all day taking things apart

Chu Xinian didn't tell him. After a moment of contemplation, he threw the book aside, walked towards Xie Jingyuan, and sat beside him: "General."

Xie Jingyuan raised his eyebrows slightly and waited for his next move.

Unexpectedly, Chu Xinian asked out of the blue: "General, do you have someone you like?"

Xie Jingyuan was stunned when he heard this: "What?"

Chu Xinian smiled, and suddenly gently held his hand, his palm warm against his, and asked in a low voice: "General, do you have someone you like?"

The more you look at a beauty under the lamp, the more beautiful she becomes. Chu Xinian's handsome and extraordinary profile appeared warm and clear under the candlelight, and his eyes were filled with a faint smile, which made people blush and their hearts beat faster.

Xie Jingyuan thought what a ridiculous question this was, narrowed his eyes, slowly approached him, and asked with interest: "Why, are you worried that this general will make you a cuckold?"

Chu Xinian's fingertips were stained with a little powder, and he wiped some of it on Xie Jingyuan's sleeve without leaving a trace. He tilted his head to look at the man who was close to him, smiled, and then raised his hand to gently take off the mask on his face.

Xie Jingyuan turned his head to avoid it reflexively, but this made the mask fall off faster, and his scarred face was exposed to the air.

He was stunned and subconsciously covered his face. Then he reacted and warned coldly: "Chu Xinian—"

"General, it's hard enough for you to wear the mask during the day, take it off at night."

The mask in Chu Xinian's hand still had some residual warmth. From a medical point of view, covering up the wound is not conducive to recovery. Although those injuries are old, wearing a mask also affects the skin's breathability.

After Chu Xinian finished speaking, Xie Jingyuan stared at him and smiled: "I have always been brave, General, don't be afraid of scaring me."

"… "

Xie Jingyuan stared at him without saying anything. After a moment, he snorted coldly and turned to lie down beside the bed.

Chu Xinian turned his back to him, raised his eyebrows slightly, and suddenly felt that Xie Jingyuan was quite interesting. He looked out the window, dark clouds covered the moon, and the night was dark and windy.

The plan can begin.
