After dressing as a sick and weak villain

Chapter 19

Zhao Xuan's complexion changed, and seeing the surly look in Jiang Yanchi's eyes, he felt that something was wrong.After taking a few steps back, he listened to the man again: "Hurry up to return to the Duke's office to report? My son, since you have known him for more than eight years, you can only know what kind of person he is.... If he gets to know him in the future... In the event of murder, do you want the entire Duke of Yue to be implicated and buried with him?"

Zhao Xuan is not very good at guessing people's hearts.He knew that Chu Xie was used to domineering and made many enemies in Xijing.But Chu Xie had indeed treated this little highness well in the past, so why did he provoke such a strong killing intent.

The son is a simple and straightforward character, and when he thinks of this, he will bluntly persuade him.

"Your Highness, after the case of returning the money to the gambling house, Chu's palm seal has already handed over the country's seal, so why should His Highness press so hard... If Master Chu hadn't protected you two years ago, how could it be Your Highness who sits high above the East Palace now!"

Jiang Yanchi's eyes froze when he heard the words.

Gritting his teeth, he asked word by word: "According to what the son said, I became that white-eyed wolf for no reason? The son speaks so lightly, why, the century-old glory of the Duke of Yue's mansion is now in the hands of this eunuch, isn't it?" ?!"

"This statement by my minister is definitely not selfish! It's just your highness, such a rabbit is cooked like a dog, and the bird is hidden... how can it be the way of a sage and a wise king!" Zhao Xuan knelt on the ground and kowtowed again, "Even if he is right? People living in the world have not felt sorry for His Highness, what kind of place is that Zhao prison, I beg Your Highness... let him live..."

Let him live.

Now it is clear that he is unwilling to let me live!

But every time it hurts not myself, but the innocent people around him who are fighting for their lives.Chu Xie is always like this, killing the people he valued the most time and time again, endlessly, he doesn't know how to restrain himself!

Two years ago, he had to bear it for his own life. Now, no matter how much he endured, he might not be able to protect that person anymore!

"Your Highness! Chu Xie will exchange the imperial power with you, but not now... why are you so anxious! Your Highness, he is not your enemy, so don't be provoked by traitors..."

The coldness in Jiang Yanchi's eyes was even worse, and he walked towards the person under the shade of the tree, and pointed the long knife at the man's heart with his side: "He is the biggest traitor, how can there be any other traitors! "

This roar woke up Chu Xie who was still sleeping.

After he got up, he reached out and picked up a long gown and single clothes, which hung near his knees and were not fastened with a belt, and the sleeves of the plain clothes flew when the wind blew.

Holding the door frame, he saw Jiang Yanchi not far away.

After waking up, there seemed to be a little bit of confusion in his eyes, and he blinked slowly several times. In this moment of daze, Jiang Yanchi had drawn out his long sword and pointed it at the tip of his nose.

Chu Xie was so startled that he pushed half a step, barely standing still while holding on to the door frame, his face turned pale little by little.

He looked at half of his face printed on the mirror-like sword, and asked, "Jiang Yanchi, you want to kill me."

"So what. The case of Jin Huan Gambling House has been settled. Aren't you planning to kill me too?"

The wind blew the man's scattered black hair, his tired and lazy posture was not suitable for the current fight.

A strand of blue silk scattered into the neckline, sticking to the white jade-like skin and sinking into the clothes.

The elegant fragrance of Bolan blows in your face.

Chu Xie woke up completely, his eyes gradually cleared up, and immediately after that, a piece of coldness burst out.

"His Royal Highness's wings have hardened, and he has confidence in his speech. It must be because the East Palace is too comfortable... It makes you think that you are really worthy of the name of the prince of the country."

"If you have anything to say, go and say it in Zhao Prison."

"You're just stupid." Chu Xie's voice was a little hoarse, "As soon as Rong Guogong's people support you, you can't wait to send yourself up to be used as a knife for others. When the Minister of the Ministry of Officials speaks, you think you can Get on board the Beijing Town Duke's Mansion... Don't forget, the two of them first protected your cousin Jiang Jingfan. You don't want to be a pawn in my hand, but you are eager to become People's stepping stones...to say you are stupid is to flatter you."

His words were soft, as if he had no strength.

Jiang Yanchi's knife got a little closer.

"I have never needed your favor... Even if I spend my whole life in the cold palace, I will..."

"Jiang Yanchi, if you want to arrest me in Zhao Prison, that's fine." Chu Xie said, "Wait until the Ministry of Criminal Justice dares to draft your so-called evidence and issue an arrest order, or the commander of the Imperial Army, Li Zhou, dares to bring Step into my Chu Mansion with a knife to take people, let's talk."

He raised his slender wrist to pick up the tea that Zhao Xuan had just brewed, and took a sip.

"It's too early to be cruel to me."

Jiang Yanchi didn't become angry as he expected, but let out a cold snort.

The face of the Duke of Yue was black, and he took a step forward as if he wanted to tell Chu Xie something, but was interrupted by the orderly and resolute footsteps behind him.

Chu Xie's pupils shrank suddenly when he saw the imperial army breaking into the mansion.

Seeing Xu Changling approaching slowly and arrogantly, Chu Xie panicked visible to the naked eye, coughed several times in a row, leaned on the door frame, and pointed at Jiang Yanchi: "You... as the East Palace, how can you change the imperial army at will? The deputy commander... this is, it's treason!"

"No matter how rebellious you have done, I am still far behind the palm print."

With a slow wave of Jiang Yan's hand, the guardsman took a few steps forward, pointing his sword directly at Chu Xie.

"Should I go for the palm print by myself, or let me 'invite' you to go."

Chu Xie narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Your Highness!" Zhao Xuan stopped in front of Chu Xie, "Think twice!"

Just as they cut off their gaze, Jiang Yanchi heard Chu Xie say calmly, "Okay, I'll go."

"Master Chu!" Zhao Xuan's face darkened, "Don't get too angry, I'd better wait until I go back to the mansion and report to my father..."

Chu Xie's voice was thinly teased: "Jiang Yanchi, you invite me in now, and I want you to kneel down and beg me to come out tomorrow."

In a word, he calmly adjusted the tie.

His temple hair was not tied up in time, so he lazily tied it loosely with a lapel collar, and the broken hair covered his eyebrows and eyes, and his thin clothes made him look even thinner.

When passing Xu Changling, his eyes silently swept across his chin.

The eight-foot-tall general moved his Adam's apple up and down, and was almost taken away by that look.

damn-

This person's appearance is actually a bit more attractive than Xu Chunmu's.

The aroma wafted from the hair, mixed with the smell of green leaves around the body, it made people's throat burn.

***

Rongguo Mansion.

"It really went in?" The Duke of the State pointed to the southwest direction with his long sleeves, "Is it Zhao Prison?"

"Yes, it's absolutely true. That Chuxie is also bold enough to dare to poison the prince so blatantly... Now the prince has withdrawn the power of the Imperial Guard at the Duke of Yue's mansion, and moved all of them to the Xu family in the north Feng Shui turns in our hands, and the current situation is of great benefit to us!"

Chen Liansheng, the son of Rong Guogong, was very happy, and he looked at his mother, and his wife immediately played the side drum: "Master, do you think it is better to let our nephew come to Beijing again..."

Lord Rongguo was a little more prudent, and thought for a while with his hands behind his back, then shook his head and dismissed: "Marquis Xu of Zhenguo won the military power of the imperial guards. There is no military power, and King Ningyuan is thousands of miles away, so it is better not to make any moves yet, and be on the safe side."

"But……"

The crown prince tugged on his mother's sleeve: "Mother, what father said makes sense. That Chuxie has always been cunning, even if he wants the crown prince to come to Beijing now, it is too late, and there may be some other changes in the future."

Mrs. Rong Guo stopped talking.

"wrong."

Duke Rong thought about it carefully, and was very suspicious.

"If that's the case, it's even worse if you don't move." He stroked his beard for consideration. "The little prince is nothing to worry about. The problem lies in the attitudes of Chu Xie and the Xu family. The Xu family controls the imperial army here in Xijing, and there are 40 troops at the border... ...At the moment, even if we join forces with King Ningyuan, we may not have the power to fight against Xu's... The current situation is already a three-legged confrontation! Wait, wait...We not only have to guard against that dog, we also have to guard against the Xu Changling in the imperial city!"

The son seemed to understand but half understood, so he could only nod in agreement: "Father is right."

***

Zhao prison.

"Are you sure, Rongguo's mansion and Yue's mansion will protect you together."

In the darkness, the dark purple brocade was looming in the firelight, and a steady voice came through the fence.

Chu Xie sat lazily on the cotton-covered wooden bed, fiddling with a strand of black silk with his fingers idly: "Well, Chen Lianzhou has always been suspicious and timid. He had a feud with the Zhen Guohou Xu family in the past. , It’s a combination of superficiality... Now that I’m afraid of the Xu family, I will definitely protect me to check and balance the Xu family’s power in Xijing.”

The man was always hidden in the darkness: "Make sure your hands and feet are clean enough."

"Don't worry, the Duke of Yue's mansion has always been safe. Zhao Xuan and I have some kind of friendship, so he must be extremely careful... The little prince can't catch it anyway."

Chu Xie has a plan in mind.

"Master Su doesn't need to interfere in this matter. Chu can handle it. At most two days, the little prince will have to beg me to get out of this prison."

"Ah."

The man approached the fence and emerged in a halo of light.

"You should restrain yourself when you do things. After suffering this loss, you should know how to advance and retreat."

Chu Xie's long eyelashes covered a dark light of hatred.

"The puppy in your hand is disobedient, so you should let him fall off the table and teach him an unforgettable lesson... It's just a pity, let him live. Jiang Yanchi is not an obedient dog. You should kill him, why wait until today."

The man's purple sleeves fluttered lightly, so clean that he couldn't fit in the cold and damp Zhao Prison.

He said: "Jiang Yanchi is not an obedient dog, and Jiang Jingfan is not. Master Chu, restrain yourself."

"Humph."

The corner of Chu Xie's mouth was slightly raised, and his brows were raised slightly: "Why, you are scared."

"I'm not afraid of anything. It's just that we have been working steadily for many years, and we finally climbed to this position. Seeing that something big is about to happen, we can't make a mistake right now."

Chu Xie turned his head indifferently, looking at the small window, wondering what he was thinking.

After a long silence, he backed down, "I see."

"I know that you are also feeling uncomfortable. When this matter is over, I will give you the head of Rong Guogong as a gift, and I will tell you to calm down, that's good."

Chu Xie got off the bed suddenly, not disliking the fact that the fence was full of dirt, he grasped it tightly with both hands, his eyes suddenly said: "Are you serious?"

"Well. Although you were reckless in this assassination incident, the road ahead was paved beautifully. After using the old man of the Chen family to protect you from Zhao Prison, I did some tricks to detain the crime of pickling in Rongguo Gongfu .”

Chu Xie nodded slightly at first, nodded his head more and more heavily, and murmured: "Excellent, excellent..."

"I want Chen Lianzhou—dead without a whole body!"

"You'll just stay here for the past two days. Don't cause any other troubles. The message from the northern border says that Xu Chunmu is coming towards Xijing. I'm afraid there will be some accidents."

Xu Chunmu came to the capital?

Chu Xie was taken aback.

"Okay." Chu Xie made a bow, "I will trouble Master Su with this matter."

The dark purple figure disappeared at the corner at the end of Zhao Prison. With a creak, a gleam of light appeared at the corner, and the wind blew the wall fire, making the prison alternate with light and dark several times, and then the corner melted into darkness again.

The door was just ajar, just a formality.

Chu Xie also pushed open the fence door, glanced at the high window again, and took a few deep breaths.

Get out early.

This place was too stuffy, and there was still a faint fishy smell in the air, which he couldn't bear.

I tossed and turned all night and didn't sleep well.

At the beginning of Yinshi, the sky was still dark and it was the darkest ten. He heard the sound of approaching footsteps outside Zhao Prison, which seemed to be a lot of people.

After a while, a pawn's voice came from outside: "It's here, right here."

There was a little smile in Chu Xie's eyes - he was finally able to go out.

It must be someone from the Rongguo government or the Zhao family, but they came faster than expected, which saved me a lot of trouble.

Chu Xie pretended to be still asleep, and heard the crisp sound of the iron chain being opened and pulled out, followed by the sound of the heavy iron door being pushed open and hitting the wall heavily.

There was a loud bang that seemed to shake the dust off the wall.

A beam of fire came from around the corner, and Chu Xie opened his eyes a little, only to see that the person who came was not from Rongguo's mansion, nor the Zhao family.

It was Jiang Yanchi.

It was so late, how could Jiang Yanchi come.

Could it be that this kid has become enlightened and aware of current affairs.Knowing that she can't fight against herself head-on, she even came here to give in to herself.

But the faces of both of them have been torn to such an extent, what's the point of being subdued now?It really is a child's heart, and still does not understand the cruelty of the struggle for imperial power.

"Why is the cell door open?" He heard Jiang Yanchi question in a low voice.

"Here, Chu, Master Chu won't let you pass... Neither do we, dare to close..."

The jailer knelt down with a plop, kowtowed and begged for mercy.

Jiang Yanchi looked at the wooden bed covered with cotton wadding inside the fence. The inside was clean and tidy, without the appearance of a prison at all. It even came with a high-quality rosewood table and straw mat.

It was as if he had come to be the guest of honor.

Seeing that the man was in a deep sleep, he seemed to have no worries at all.Last night, the people from Rongguo's mansion even handed him a booklet to protect him. Chu Xie, ah Chu Xie, you really have a good hand and an eye!

The eyes are even darker.

Chu Xie thought he could hear some soft words from him, but he was still dozing off, but unexpectedly, under the exclamation of the pawn, the quilt was lifted, and the bone-piercing cold water was poured from head to toe.

Instantly stunned.

Jiang Yanchi's eyes were gloomy, and his face was so gloomy that it was about to drip water.He seemed to be holding something in his hands, and after meeting his eyes, he stepped in as if wishing to cut himself into pieces, and said, "Chu Xie, you can sleep."

"What are you doing here at this hour." Chu Xie held back his breath, wringing the water off his sleeves, and his voice was filled with anger, "I searched my house for a whole day, but what did you find?"

The little prince didn't speak, so he sneered: "If you can't find it, you can only come and throw cold water at him. What's the difference between this and a dog barking at a bereaved family."

The anger in Jiang Yanchi's eyes was instantly ignited.

He threw the things in his hands in front of him.

Chu Xie saw clearly that it was... the night clothes he wore when he pretended to be Xu Chunmu when he met him at night.

Heart sank suddenly.

It's over. It's over.

Mrs. Zhao only knew to erase all the traces related to the poisoning, but she didn't know that she pretended to be Xu Chunmu and interacted with the prince. She was in a hurry when she returned to the mansion that day, and she forgot to take care of such important clothes.

Fortunately, the mask is stored in the space.

Chu Xie could only pretend to be at a loss: "What is this?"

Jiang Yanchi grabbed his collar and pointed his fingers to the ground. There was still a little bit of cold sweat on his nostrils, and his knuckles were trembling: "Where is the man?"

"Where is someone?"

"I asked you where he is?!" Jiang Yanchi pushed violently, and threw him heavily on the couch with a bang.Chu Xie was beaten up, turned around and coughed twice.

"I don't know what your highness is talking about."

When Jiang Yanchi saw that he was biting his tongue tightly and refused to let go, his face turned pale in anger.

He should send more people to watch Xu Chunmu that day.Chu Xie has always been cunning and insidious, so he must be able to find out the person who betrayed him in the incident of the Jinhuan Casino.

Xu Chunmu was innocent by nature, and had never seen this person's ruthless methods.I'm afraid that the poison was half-cured and he returned to the Chu Mansion, and was arrested in a short while.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yanchi felt cold in his heart.

Hearing the man coughing, he recovered a little bit of consciousness, and asked with trembling lips, "You killed him, you killed him... didn't you?"

Chu Xie didn't turn the corner in his mind for a moment, but felt that the current plot was really so bad that his mother couldn't get it right.

I can only fool around first.

"Who is your Highness asking? All the senior servants in my mansion will give out such a shirt, it's black, it's resistant to dirt..."

"Lie. I searched all over your Chu mansion, but only found this one in the side hall of your bedroom!" Jiang Yan slowly closed his eyes, calming down his beating heart.

He thought about it.

A Niang was killed in the side hall of his bedroom.

Chu Xie likes to kill people there, doesn't he?

When he opened it again, his eyes were bright red.

"Did you kill him?"

"answer me."

Chu Xie saw that the situation was not good, and considered whether to open the system to discuss.As soon as I opened it, I heard a sharp "ahhhhh", which made my head hurt.Immediately closed again.

damn it.

After giving the system some time to see the situation clearly, Chu Xie mediated with the little prince: "I don't know who you are talking about, but in the past few days, it seems that a few servants have escaped from the mansion. Why, there is His Royal Highness here The person you want to find? There is no rush, after I get out of Zhao Prison, I will help you find it..."

It is rare to speak politely.

Drenched all over, and in the early morning when the temperature was the lowest, Chu Xie's hands and feet were icy cold, and he just wanted to get rid of Jiang Yanchi quickly.

"Who is His Royal Highness looking for? Can you tell me."

Jiang Yanchi only pursed his lips, unable to answer for a long time.

"I didn't poison you. This must be a misunderstanding. Presumably His Highness has not found any evidence to know that I am innocent, right. It's all a misunderstanding. I'm afraid it's not good for you and me to make such an ugly mess. Like this, wait for me to go out." Take a step back..."

Before he finished speaking, Jiang Yanchi sneered: "You think you can go out?"

This kid can't understand human words, right?

Don't eat soft ones, you must eat hard ones.

Chu Xie's smile flattened a little bit.

"Your Highness. The Chen Clan of Rongguo Duke's Mansion and the Zhao Clan of Yueguo Duke's Mansion are my guarantors. Now, whether it is Zhao Prison or the Ministry of Punishment, there is no evidence. Why, Your Highness thinks it can be detained I?"

"It's ridiculous, you really think you can stand and sit firmly when you kneel down and beg for the throne?" Chu Xie said mercilessly, "You want to be a human being, and you want to be a dog and a dog. You want to be beautiful. I advise you You know the current affairs, Jiang Yanchi, I have the ability to put you in this position, and I also have the ability to smash you to pieces."

Jiang Yanchi took a deep breath, and his chest heaved violently: "It's useless to keep talking, are you procrastinating? Are you still waiting for someone from the Duke's Mansion to protect you? So what if there is no evidence, this prisoner who was wronged Are there still fewer dead?!"

Chu Xie felt a chill in his heart, and said badly.

This male protagonist's tactics are too wild, and he always doesn't play cards according to the routine.

Could it be that he is going to be planted here today.

"Chu Xie, whether you say it or not, I won't let you get out of here alive." Jiang Yan waved his hand, and immediately someone came up and clamped his two thin arms, "I know you are the one who poisoned you, I also know that your tricks are so powerful that people can't grasp the matter because you wiped everything out... But I don't care whether the crime is true or not, I want you to die here."

"Jiang Yanchi, how dare you!"

A rare panic appeared on his face, and he said harshly, "You dare to touch me, you..."

"Drag it out and kill it with a stick."

Jiang Yanchi watched the man being dragged out to the execution room with his arms twisted, and followed slowly. He watched the jailer stuff Chu Xie's mouth full of white silk and tie him to the bench so that he couldn't move.
