Chapter 1652 Extra Story: Dragon and Phoenix Knot (41)

Qiqi smiled, flicked Croton's forehead with her fingers, and made several gestures.

"Catch frogs with me in the afternoon? All right!" Covering his forehead, Croton grinned and leaned closer, "But Qiqi, did you commit the following crime just now? Come and die!"

"Qiqi, run!" Hongdou hugged his brother's arm almost immediately, and Qiqi on the other side had jumped two feet away, walked backwards out of Croton's reach, tilted her head and smiled at him.

"Oh! Hongdou, you help Qiqi every time, you can't help your brother once! I'm so mad!" Croton's tone was not angry, but he had a smile on his face. He was dragged by his sister without struggling, lest As soon as he struggled, he threw his sister down.

A group of five people roared and laughed like this, and walked home.

At the entrance of the village, although it is still March, the sun at noon for a long time can make people dizzy. Especially the courtiers, who were used to being pampered, seemed a little unbearable. And as soon as they got on the pier, they rushed to Xinghua Village without even eating breakfast.

Qi Shiren stood at the end of the stone bridge, fixed at the position outside the hidden weapon circle, and kept wiping his sweat with a small handkerchief. From time to time, I raised my head and looked around in the upper half of the sky. Although I knew that the possibility of seeing someone was unlikely, I felt anxious.

"Lord Qi, it's been about an hour since this man went to report it? Why hasn't there been any reply? Xinghua Village is not big." From the entrance of the village to the compound of the Liu family, it took an hour to go back and forth, who would believe it?

"Xinghua Village is not big, but we can't understand the prince's thoughts. If the prince wants to see you, we can see him right away. If the prince doesn't want to see you, we have to wait." Qi Shiren returned, the handkerchief in his hand had been pinched into countless folds, Group again and again.

Why is he not in a hurry? But here, no one dares to make a mistake.

"Suddenly so many people came to us. With the prince's temperament, he must be unhappy. The prince has already lived in seclusion and has ignored court affairs for a long time. He is afraid that he will be disturbed if he is unhappy."

"The reason why we came here must be known to the prince. The delay in summoning is probably related to the emperor. After all, the emperor was brought out by the prince to help him up. Even if he is dissatisfied with the emperor's actions, he will not easily accept our complaint. "

"The prince protects his weaknesses. In the prince's heart, the emperor is one of his own. In the prince's heart, we are outsiders."

Vaguely, some courtiers have already begun to retreat.

Qi Shiren turned his head and looked at the people who spoke, "Your Highness protects the weak, but the Highest protects the country and the country even more. Don't forget that Nanling belongs to the Feng family. No matter how the Highness protects the weak, he will never let the Emperor mess around!"

The officials were silent, pacing back and forth around the carriage, getting on and off countless times.

The bright sun above the head hangs in the sky from the beginning, and gradually turns to the west, and the shadow of the big locust tree is drawn to the elders.

"My lord has an order. In two days, my lord will return to the capital together with all my lords. However, Xinghua Village is a clean place, and outsiders are still forbidden to enter. My lords can find a place to stay by myself, and my lord will notify me after two days."

Finally, when the sun was sinking to the west, there were voices floating over the stone bridge again.

"My guard, I've come from a long way, and I'm not familiar with the place here. I wonder if I can ask for the grace of the lord to let me settle down temporarily in Xinghua Village?" Qi Shiren responded quickly, but there was no response.

A group of people, a row of carriages, turned around and left with low morale.

As a veteran, it is not once or twice to deal with the prince, so he was mentally prepared when he came. It's just that they couldn't even step into the entrance of Xinghua Village in the end, which was unexpected by the officials.

The prince said that he would go back to Beijing with them, which was like giving them a reassurance. But the treatment given to them by the prince made them soak in ice water, and their hearts were completely chilled.

What is the prince thinking?
