Chapter 381: Sneaky People Do Sneaky Things

"The crime of assassinating His Highness King Chen is to destroy the nine clans!" Xiao Xuanzi said in a sad and sad voice, standing in front of Chu Liuchen.

"Your Highness, I don't dare. I really touched you by accident!" The guard commander's face turned pale, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, he threw the sword at hand, and then knelt down and knelt down.

The room suddenly became quiet, and it was extremely strange.

The guard commander could even see the sweat on his forehead rolling down from between his eyelashes, and his whole heart was lifted. It took a while before Chu Liuchen's soft voice came: "Didn't you assassinate this king just now?"

"I don't dare. Even if I die, I don't dare to do such an unscrupulous thing!" The guard commander did not dare to raise his head.

"Get up!" Chu Liuchen's voice seemed to soften.

But the guard commander did not dare to relax at all, and still knelt down and said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, I still have something to report!"

"Say!" Chu Liuchen asked as he picked up the tea on the table and took a leisurely sip. The tense atmosphere in the room just now disappeared because of his calmness.

This feeling even made the guard commander wonder if the previous scene was just a figment of his imagination.

But he immediately denied this feeling in his heart. There were still wet stains from his sweat on the ground in front of him, telling him how impressive the Chen King in front of him was.

How much more powerful than that King Cheng!

"His Royal Highness, King Cheng, just asked about your news. He specifically mentioned that he was resting temporarily in the courtyard next to him when he saw you. It was not that His Highness thought that he already had a residence in His Highness's courtyard before!" The guard commander said cautiously. According to the report, he originally didn't want to talk about this, but now he had to bring it out to please the King Chen in front of him.

"Uncle Wang found me by chance, but I only left the palace once by chance. This fate is really not shallow!" Chu Liuchen said lightly.

The commander of the guards suddenly felt that the sweat on his forehead began to roll down again. He was just here to investigate the person who assassinated His Highness King Cheng, but this time he felt that he seemed to have heard words he shouldn't have heard.

This was indeed a coincidence. It was like two people who should never have met met inexplicably. This was also an important reason why he came here to see King Chen.

His Highness King Cheng was assassinated. This King Chen happened to appear within the range of King Cheng’s assassination. He was suspicious no matter how you looked at it. Just now, His Highness King Cheng also repeatedly expressed that he was lucky to have met King Chen and was able to survive. This of course meant that Chen The king has a lot of manpower, but doesn't it also mean that King Chen's presence here is very suspicious!

But now King Chen’s words have gone against what he meant before! It was King Cheng himself who deliberately set up the trap.

These two princes are obviously the least likely to have anything going on, so why are they getting involved together?

"Does your uncle know about this?" The guard commander was speechless for a moment, but Chu Liuchen became more and more leisurely and asked casually.

"The emperor already knows about this and is furious!" the guard commander replied.

"Let Uncle Wang investigate more about this matter. We must give Uncle Wang the truth. Who is so good at knowing when Uncle Wang will come down from the mountain? He even calculated that I will be here tonight!" Chu Liuchen said lowly. He coughed twice and stopped talking.

"You go down first. Our master is not in good health and will return to the palace soon." Xiao Xuanzi said to the guard commander in a cold voice.

"Yes, my subordinates are resigning!" the guard commander stood up hurriedly and stepped aside.

Chu Liuchen closed his handsome eyes slightly and waved his hand. The guard commander did not dare to stay any longer and hurried downstairs.

"Master, are you feeling well?" Xiao Xuanzi looked at his master's pale face with fear. At this time, the blush caused by drinking had faded, and the past paleness appeared on his face. Chu Liu could see that Chen's situation at this time was indeed not good.

"Go back to the palace!" Chu Liuchen said with his eyes closed.

"Yes, I'll get ready immediately!" Seeing that his breath was still stable, Xiao Xuanzi breathed a sigh of relief.

"Prepare the couch!" Chu Liuchen said casually.

Xiao Xuanzi paused and said anxiously, "Yes, I will go find someone right away."

Two guards were found. These were Chu Liuchen's own two guards. They came up with a soft couch. Xiao Xuanzi helped Chu Liuchen lie down on the couch, covered him with a thin quilt, and let him go. The two guards carefully carried the soft couch downstairs.

"How is King Chen?" After leaving the courtyard gate, the lights were brightly lit at the entrance. A handsome young man was standing in the small courtyard next to him. When he saw the guards carrying Chu Liuchen down, his face changed greatly and he hurriedly He strode over and said.

Although his clothes are plain and simple in style, you can tell from these few steps that he is imposing and definitely not an ordinary person.

"I have seen His Highness Prince Cheng!" Xiao Xuanzi said sharply.

"How is your master?" King Cheng asked anxiously, looking at Chu Liuchen whose face was as pale as snow.

"I'm scared, I'm afraid... it's not going to be good again!" Xiao Xuanzi's eyes turned red and tears were about to fall.

Looking at the beautiful young man covered in the quilt, his face was indeed as pale as snow, without a trace of blood, "Send him to the palace quickly, quickly!"

King Cheng ordered, getting out of the way.

After Xiao Xuanzi saluted him, he hurriedly followed the soft couch and walked out of the alley. The alley was too small and the carriage was parked outside.

Behind them, King Cheng looked thoughtfully at the crowd going away, his eyebrows knotted.

"Your Majesty!" Xiqi stepped forward and whispered.

"Let's go into the palace too!" His Highness Prince Cheng frowned and said, "Prince Chen's health is not good. I was afraid he was frightened just now. If I had known that his good health was still so bad, I wouldn't have sent anyone to disturb him just now. !”

He was stunned for a moment, not understanding what his master meant, and secretly glanced at Prince Cheng in astonishment. The prince's previous intention was to drag His Highness Chen Wang into trouble, and he could even take advantage of His Highness Chen Wang's favor in the eyes of the emperor. Status, to clear up his doubts, why did he seem to be protecting His Highness King Chen in just a short while?

"Let's go into the palace!" King Cheng seemed not to see the tangled look on his confidant's face, but said calmly.

"Your Majesty, please get on the carriage!" Xiqi said respectfully.

They had just gone out and were about to get into the carriage. Unexpectedly, Chu Liuchen also went out, and they happened to bump into him.

"Your Majesty, do you want to enter the palace first?" the guard commander stepped forward and asked.

"First go to the palace to report to the Emperor, and then take a look at King Chen's body. His health is still so bad. Both the Queen Mother and the Emperor are very worried!"

His Highness Prince Cheng sighed and said helplessly, as an elder who cares about the younger generation, it is only natural for him to make such a decision.

After King Cheng finished speaking, he got on the carriage, which slowly headed towards the palace. In front of their carriage, Chu Liuchen's carriage was rushing towards the palace. There was a patient in the carriage who couldn't wait...

There were so many people on the street that it was difficult to find someone. Qin Wanru was surprised to see Qi Tianyu, and then Qi Baiyu, but not Qin Yuru.

The entrance to the bookstore had been cordoned off before, and that section of the road was not allowed to be walked on, but the surrounding roads had also returned to calm, and it was still a bustling New Year's Eve.

Although people who saw the scene were panicked, there were more people who didn't see it. Speaking of it, they just thought it was a small accident. The street became lively again, and those who should laugh were still laughing, and those who should be making trouble were still making trouble. .

After Qin Wanru and the Qi brothers searched again and again, they had no choice but to look back. They had to report this matter to Qin Huaiyong and ask him to send someone to find Qin Yuru.

But when he was about to go to the Qin Mansion, he unexpectedly met Qin Yuru.

"Second sister, where have you been? I...I searched many places and couldn't find you!" Qin Yuru looked very anxious. She rushed out from a street intersection and grabbed Qin Wanru's hand, looking excited and nervous.

nervous?

Qin Wanru's eyes slid across the street. There were several small alleys there. Two women stepped back. Judging from the clothes, they must be maids.

The two maids escorted him out of the house, which was quite a scene.

"Where did the eldest sister go? I and the two Young Masters Qi looked for you together. After searching for a long time, we didn't see the eldest sister!" Qin Wanru said calmly, reaching out to pull Qin Yuru's hand away.

You may need to pretend in front of others, but in front of the Qi brothers, Qin Wanru really doesn't think it is necessary. Others don't know what happened in Jiangzhou, so how can the Qi brothers not know?

"I...I'm looking for you too, maybe we crossed paths!" Qin Yuru rolled her eyes and smiled.

"Sister, have you always been here?" Qin Wanru asked, looking around.

"How is it possible? I just got here. Let's go, let's go. It's already so late. Let's go home early. My father and grandmother must be waiting impatiently!"

Qin Yuru said, hurriedly wanting to leave this place.

The more anxious she was, the less anxious Qin Wanru became. He walked a few steps, changed places, and then said softly: "Sister, do you know that something big happened on the street just now? Many people died!"

"What's the big deal?" Qin Yu asked subconsciously.

Qi Tianyu raised his head and looked at her, a hint of sadness flashed in his eyes, but he said nothing.

"It seemed like someone was killing people. Many people died and they were set on fire. The flames flooded into the street. We happened to be in that area just now. I couldn't find anyone else, so I hid in a store. The eldest sister hid in Where can you see it?" Qin Wanru said with calm eyes.

"I...of course I saw it too. How could you not see such a big fire? I also hid in a store. I didn't see clearly what store it was in my panic. After that, I was crowded again. Later, in order to find You, you can’t even find the road, and you are just walking around here when you see the second sister, how wonderful it is!”

Qin Yuru said, with an anxious look on his face, as if he had been looking for Qin Wanru for a long time.

But there were so many deliberate things, as if nothing was left behind, which made people feel that what she said was not entirely true. Besides, with her temperament, how could she really notice Qin Wanru's life and death? It was good enough to hope that Qin Wanru would die, but how could he care enough about it.

This is false!

Not only Qin Wanru had such an idea, but the Qi brothers also felt the same. Although the two of them did not speak, their eyes fell on Qin Yuru, making the expression on Qin Yuru's face become stiff and embarrassed.

Qin Yuru's long eyelashes fluttered twice, her watery eyes raised to capture the group of people deep in the alley, and the corners of her lips curled up silently, so it was said that Qin Yuru had a private meeting here!
