Chapter 805
Zhou Cong trembled and stammered: "Princess, please rest assured, I will do my best to ensure the safety of the princess in Bianyang County!"
"You'd better be able to do it!" Xiao Xiang sneered, then stood up slowly and walked out, saying, "Have you arranged a place for me to stay?"
"Yes, yes, yes! It's in the backyard!" Zhou Cong hurriedly followed Xiao Xiang and said as if offering a treasure: "The villain has made the most careful arrangements in the backyard. Not even a fly can fly in and disturb Her Highness the Princess. ”
Xiao Xiang's expression softened a little after hearing this, and without saying anything, she walked out of the lobby surrounded by the guards and Zhou Cong, and went straight to the backyard of the county capital.
The distance between the front yard and the backyard of the county capital is not short. For Tang Yin, who is hiding in the dark, this is another difficult and dangerous journey.
Because the princess wanted to stay in the backyard, Zhou Cong arranged a heavy guard here. There were densely guarded posts and hidden sentries, and he almost didn't send people to surround the entire backyard. Under such circumstances, one can imagine how difficult it would be for Tang Yin to sneak in without being noticed.
When he approached the backyard, there were soldiers standing guard outside the courtyard wall, and there was no gap to get through. Tang Yin observed in the dark for a long time and found no way to sneak in. He sighed secretly, and just when he was feeling discouraged, he suddenly heard slight footsteps behind him.
He looked back and saw that it was two maids from the county capital who were walking towards the backyard.
Tang Yin's heart moved, his eyes rolled, and he picked up two pebbles from the ground. When the two little maids were about twenty steps away from the backyard, he suddenly popped out a pebble held between his fingers.
The stone hit a maid on the ankle. The maid groaned and couldn't stand and fell to the ground. Another maid stepped forward to help her. Tang Yin flicked out another stone and hit her. At the bend of another maid's knee.
"Ah——" Another maid also exclaimed and fell to the ground involuntarily. The two of them fell down one after another and rolled into a ball, immediately attracting the attention of the soldiers standing guard in the backyard.
Because the night was too dark and the distance was long, the Sichuan soldiers on guard couldn't see clearly what was going on. The captain waved to his subordinates on the left and right, and ran over with more than ten Sichuan soldiers in stride.
"Who?" the captain asked first.
"Sir, it's... the maid..." Seeing the many soldiers rushing towards them, the two little maids hurriedly got up from the ground and stood tremblingly on the side of the road with their heads bowed.
Seeing clearly that the person who came was a maid from the palace, all the soldiers sighed. The captain frowned and reprimanded in a low voice with dissatisfaction: "What is the ghost's name in the middle of the night?"
A little maid said timidly: "Replying to your lord, my maid... When my maid came here, she tripped over something and fell..."
The captain and the Sichuan soldiers subconsciously looked down and saw that the ground was flat, with no potholes, bulges, or anything unusual. The captain secretly rolled his eyes and said impatiently: "Be careful when you walk in the future. If you disturb the princess, we won't be able to walk around in a hurry!"
"Yes! The maid has remembered..." Seeing that they were both aggrieved and frightened, and almost crying, the captain waved to the two girls and said, "Let's go!" After saying this, he waved to the soldiers on the left and right. Head down and retreat to their respective posts under the courtyard wall.
In the blink of an eye as they left, Tang Yin had successfully climbed over the courtyard wall and jumped into the courtyard. It's easy to find Xiao Xiang's residence in the backyard. Just look for the room with the brightest lights and the most guards outside.
There were dozens of people guarding outside Xiao Xiang's residence, and most of them were spiritual cultivators. It was difficult for Tang Yin to get close to him. He repeated his old trick and ran to the roof again, carefully removing the tiles and squinting into the room. Watch and see.
At this time, the room was filled with mist, and even with Tang Yin's eyesight, it took him a while to see clearly what was going on in the room.
I saw a large wooden basin placed in the inner room of the house, filled with hot water, and Xiao Xiang was sitting naked in it taking a bath. Her skin exposed to the water looked pink, tender, and flushed, and was particularly charming. Next to her, There are two maids waiting on him.
Although Tang Yin was not a gentleman, he did not have the habit of peeking at women taking baths. He slowly closed the removed tiles, then lay aside and closed his eyes. After waiting for about two cups of tea, Xiao Xiang finally finished washing and walked out of the bathtub with the help of the maid.
Seeing the maids carrying the bathtub out, Tang Yin removed the tiles again and looked into the room. The fog in the room gradually dissipated, and Tang Yin could see more clearly. At this time, Xiao Xiang was sitting in front of the dressing table, and a personal maid was combing her hair.
However, there were still no strands hanging on her body, and there were still tiny drops of water on her body. Tang Yin secretly shook his head. At this moment, there was a gentle knock on the door outside the room. Soon, a maid came to Xiao Xiang and whispered: "Princess, Mr. Xing is here."
"Yes!" Xiao Xiang responded slowly, then stood up slowly, opened her arms, and a maid immediately put a white silk robe on her body. She tied the belt on her silk robe casually, and then said, "Let him come in!"
"Yes! Your Highness Princess!" The maid who came to report turned around and walked out of the inner room. Not long after, Xing Yuan walked in from the outside. Seeing Xiao Xiang sitting in front of the dressing table combing her hair, he knelt down respectfully and said, "I see you, Your Highness."
Xiao Xiang waved her hand slightly, and the maids around her understood this and exited the room automatically. After leaving, they carefully closed the door tightly.
She held the comb, looked at the bronze mirror in front of her, combed her hair, and asked in a lonely tone: "Mr.
Xing Yuan's face darkened obviously when he heard this. He has been by Xiao Xiang's side for more than twenty years. It can be said that he has watched Xiao Xiang grow up and knows Xiao Xiang's situation very well. He knew very well who Xiao Xiang was talking about now, but he was speechless.
The internal fighting in the palace has always been the cruelest and darkest, and it was not something that an outsider like him could intervene in at will.
He knelt on the ground without getting up, and his head slowly dropped.
"My father has so many children, why do they dislike me?" Xiao Xiang, who was combing her hair, slammed the comb in her hand on the bronze mirror in front of her, making a loud thud.
Xing Yuan trembled and whispered: "The king loves the princess the most, and... our country has never had the tradition of establishing a chief minister, so... so..."
"So, my elder brothers, sisters and even younger brothers and sisters regard me as a thorn in their side and a thorn in their flesh, and they are not happy with me!"
The lonely look on Xiao Xiang's face was swept away, replaced by coldness and ferociousness. She clenched her fists and gritted her teeth and said: "I will not let this matter go, and this time, I will not tolerate it anymore! "
"Princess means..."
Xiao Xiang walked up to Xing Yuan with her bare feet, stood still, and asked coldly: "Who does Mr. Xing think is the most likely?"
Looking at the pair of pink and white feet standing in front of him, Xing Yuan's head hung lower, and beads of sweat broke out on his forehead.
Who is most likely? How could he dare to speculate on this! He was silent for a long time, then said in a trembling voice: "Subordinate... I don't know..."
"It's not that you don't know, but you don't dare to say it!" Xiao Xiang bent down, pulled Xing Yuan up, then turned around and walked to the bed, sat down, took a deep breath, and said coldly: "If I guess That's right, the assassin must have been sent by the eldest brother. The eldest brother wanted to get rid of me for more than a day or two. This time, the eldest brother advocated a war with Feng Su, and I suggested to my father to slow down the war. Presumably, my great brother She is even more dissatisfied with me." As she spoke, she lay on the bed, her beautiful eyes flashing with fire.
Xing Yuan stepped forward, gently touched Xiao Xiang's jade back, and whispered: "The eldest son is deeply supported by the new rich, and his influence in the local area is also deeply rooted, especially his irreversible friendship with the Blood-clothed Marquis. After the princess returns to the capital, if I'm afraid it will be detrimental to the princess to openly fall out with the eldest young master."
Xiao Xiang slowly narrowed her eyes and sighed comfortably. Under Xing Yuan's massage, the anger in her heart gradually dissipated. She murmured: "It is said that the Bloody Marquis has sent his Hong family army to Bianyang County." ”
"Yes, my subordinates have also heard about it." Xing Yuan nodded.
"He wants to fight! The Bloody Marquis has always wanted to expand his Hong family army to one hundred thousand, but my father has never agreed. As long as the Sichuan Feng War continues, the Central Army's losses will inevitably increase greatly. By then, my father will also They have to rely on the family army in their hands, and the Hong family army can take advantage of the opportunity to expand its strength legitimately," Xiao Xiang said slowly.
"Yes, the princess is wise!" Xing Yuan shook his head and sighed: "My subordinates often think that compared with foreign enemies, those with evil intentions within our country are actually more hateful and more vicious!"
"Yes!" Xiao Xiang smiled bitterly and said faintly: "Foreign enemies can only hurt my skin, but internal troubles can destroy my bones!"
"Princess, we must be on guard against the bloody battle!" Xing Yuan said: "Now the Hong Family Army has only transferred two regiments to Bianyang County. If the court ignores it, my subordinates think that it won't be long before the entire Hong Family Army will be captured. Entering Bianyang County, if they take the initiative to provoke a war with Feng State, the Central Army will be forced to join the war. At that time, the war between the two countries will be unstoppable. "
Xiao Xiang chuckled and said: "If the Hong family army really dares to take the initiative to provoke, it will be a good opportunity. It can just use the hands of the Feng Army to annihilate it in one fell swoop, which is equivalent to helping the father to get rid of a worry. However, the Xueyi Hou is not so Stupid, he won't risk the Hong family army he has worked so hard to manage unless he has to."
Xing Yuan nodded thoughtfully and responded: "What the princess said is absolutely true!"
Xiao Xiang waved her hand and signaled to Xing Yuan that there was no need to press it anymore. She said: "You should help me pay more attention to spiritual cultivators, especially those powerful spiritual martial arts masters. If you can win over those who can come to my side, try to win over them, even if It’s a waste of money.”
Xing Yuan was startled and asked in a low voice: "The princess wants to..."
