old friend wine

Chapter 56

The boy doing odd jobs in the inn quickly entered the house with firewood in his arms. He was warned by Linghu, and he didn't even dare to look at Shen Ci, and just buried his head in lighting the fire.

The bed was not close to the fire, and the fire couldn't get hot for a while, Shen Ci was still terribly cold.The quilt slipped from the shoulders, half of his body was exposed in the cold air, and his whole body was cold.Shen Ci pulled up the quilt, and the bell rang along without knowing the current affairs. The Golden Dragon Guard who was guarding the door quickly poked his head, and said in a stiff tone, "What's the matter?"

Shen Ci explained helplessly, "I just covered myself with a quilt and forgot that it would ring."

Jin Longwei scolded him impatiently, "Troublesome! Lay down honestly, who do you think you are, waiting for the goddamn guy who lost his head to play with me?" You could have just nestled in the room and roasted He drank wine by the stove, but ended up breaking his wonderful life because he wanted to guard Shen Ci. Jin Longwei really annoyed him to death.

Before Shen Ci could speak, a cold and weak voice sounded from outside the door, "Linghu, you Jin Longwei are serving the imperial brother in front of the imperial court, and you even accept such impatient people who worship high and low? Even if he dares to be angry in front of Brother, he dare not speak out, but it is impossible to guarantee that he will not talk behind his back and tell him to pack his luggage and get out of the palace."

Jin Longwei hurriedly knelt down and leaned over, "I will see the lord, please forgive me!" Jin Longwei was well paid, although he had no official rank, but he could speak in the ear of the emperor. Officials from all over the world have to be courteous when they see them.He had only been selected as the Golden Dragon Guard for two months, and he hadn't lived a good life with dignity and luxury, and he never thought that he would lose his hard-won golden job just because of a single sentence.

Xu Qinghan ignored him, and only glanced at Linghu who bent over and lowered his eyes to help him walk, and said, "Did you hear clearly?"

Linghu said respectfully, "Your subordinates take orders." He gave the kneeling Jin Longwei a sharp look, "Why don't you get out of here quickly?"

Xu Qinghan stepped into the door with a cold expression, feeling really angry in his heart, how could any kind of cat or dog bully his precious Aci!It's all because he didn't maintain Aci enough, otherwise, who would dare to break ground on Tai Sui?

So Xu Qinghan reprimanded Linghu and said, "Teach your subordinates well, and if I let this king find out who dares to yell at Shen Ci and raise eyebrows, I will cut off his tongue and gouge out his head!" Eye!"

Linghu Nuonuoying, frowned secretly, thinking that Shen Ci's rebellion would be hindered by the prince, and he suddenly had a terrible headache.

Shen Ci heard clearly what Xu Qinghan said at the door, and he smiled with relief. His devotion to Xu Qinghan for so many years was not in vain.He sat on the bed and watched Xu Qinghan walk in with a smile, his eyes filled with small smiles, "Are you awake?" Then his eyes fell on Xu Qinghan's hands wrapped in white cloth and wrapped like rice dumplings, and he stopped laughing. Yi pursed her lips and asked, "What's wrong with you, how did you get hurt?"

"It's nothing, I just scratched it when peeling those few branches." Xu Qinghan didn't want to take credit in front of Shen Ci, even if he didn't say anything, Shen Ci's love for him would not be lessened, nor would it be increased by saying anything , because he believes that Shen Ci's heart is already full of his goodness, and he can't hold more, but talking more will make Shen Ci feel distressed.

Shen Ci looked at his legs dragged on the ground and could only take small steps to rub slowly, and said angrily, "What's the matter, did you scratch your legs when you peeled off the branches? Don't fool me, just say what you have."

"Oh, it's not a big deal, so don't ask me." Xu Qinghan sat on the edge of the bed, stared at him greedily and said, "Let me take a good look at you, I passed out before seeing enough last night." Looking at it, his face gradually became gloomy, he turned his head and scolded Linghu, "Why is his face so ugly, did you not take good care of him, and the room is so cold!"

Linghu knelt down in front of him on both knees, cupped his hands and replied, "My lord, my subordinates found a letter of conspiracy between him and the rebel Zhao Jingxuan in Chief Shen's room. The letter said that Chief Shen would persecute you. Coincidentally, at At this juncture, you fell off the cliff and were injured, you almost lost your life, Chief Shen may be sorry for the favor of the lord."

Xu Qinghan looked at Shen Ci with a frown, but Shen Ci didn't show any fluctuations in emotion, and looked back at him calmly.

Xu Qinghan said, "What about the letter? Show it to me."

Linghu nodded and offered the letter with both hands.

Xu Qinghan quickly scanned the contents of the letter, then tore it up with a few clicks, and when Linghu reacted and grabbed the pieces, the good letter had already been broken into dozens of pieces.

Holding the fragments, Linghu said heartbrokenly, "What are you doing, my lord? How can you destroy such important evidence?"

"It's a bunch of nonsense, tear it clean." Xu Qing coldly said, but he was very regretful in his heart, because his hands were too inflexible, otherwise it would have been torn into pieces.

Linghu said seriously, "My lord, please don't act emotionally. The evidence is convincing. Even Leader Shen himself admitted that he is Xiao Chenhuan's son."

Xu Qinghan glared at Shen Ci angrily, pointed at his nose and said, "What? You said that?"

Only then did Linghu feel a little comforted in his heart, and the prince finally realized that he wanted to ask the crime of disrupting the party.Then he heard Xu Qinghan say in exasperation, "Are you stupid? Let me tell you about this kind of thing, how can you tell outsiders? Now retract my confession immediately!"

"Okay, okay, I was wrong, don't get excited." Shen Ci said dotingly, "I am not, I am not, I retract the confession."

Xu Qinghan looked down at Linghu expressionlessly and said, "Did you hear that, he's not."

Linghu's knees gave way and almost fell, and he said weakly, "My lord, you... please take this matter seriously, the crime of treason cannot be erased by your personal affection."

"Since you know that treason is a serious crime, how can you accuse others so rashly?" Xu Qinghan also refused to give up an inch, and said coldly, "Now that nonsense letter has been destroyed, A Ci also said that he is not The descendants of the Xiao family are now, Master Linghu should also be forgiving and forgiving."

"It's the reward of eating the king, and the matter of being loyal to the king. Your majesty's kindness will be rewarded with your life, and I'm sorry that you will find out the truth." Linghu raised his eyes and looked at Xu Qinghan, and said word by word, "My lord." , Boss Shen wants to kill you, but you still want to risk the world's displeasure, and protect this thieves who will avenge their kindness?"

Xu Qinghan was puzzled, "How do you say that?"

Linghu said loudly, "You may have been bewitched by the thieves at the bottom of the cliff, and you have been confused between black and white. I implore the prince to allow you to pass Miss Hua Xiaowei in to confront you."

Xu Qinghan replied without hesitation, "No need, since she has the courage to stay, she must be ready to bear the consequences. It was she who killed me, so there is no need to confront her, just hold her down and prepare to kill her."

"..." Linghu is really at a loss for words. He has known Xu Qinghan for many years and knows a lot about him.He is not a very emotional person, and he doesn't even have much emotion to speak of. He is used to being flattered and bowed to him by others, and he can't appreciate other people's respect, concern and other feelings. He is cold to everyone.Why did you completely change yourself when Shen Ci was involved today?
