Chapter 62: Not an important person

Xia Chixiao returned to Qingpu Courtyard, called Shen Xia and gave him some instructions.

Shen Xia left immediately.

He was standing in the courtyard. He was not familiar with the entire Liyanghou Mansion, but the Qingpu Courtyard was filled with his people.

Marquis Liyang is his father, but for so long, he has seen many emotions in Marquis Liyang's eyes, including relief, admiration, consideration, calculation, vigilance, patience...

Although they are very secretive and even disappear in a flash, for a person who has been lurking in the enemy's country for more than two years and can charge on the battlefield, he can keenly feel any abnormality.

There is no family affection in these.

Or this can be attributed to 22's absence and lack of emotion.

Xia Chixiao didn't care.

There are many things, and he will check them out one by one.

The emperor ordered us to report within five days.

He decided to wait until his grandmother and wife arrived and settled them before going.

There is a vague expectation in my heart.

He grew up in the North and was very close to his grandmother, who was also very loving to him.Even though she was not a relative, the longing and admiration for his grandmother in his heart did not diminish at all.

Shuangyangfang.

Shao Mingde's carriage wandered on the street for a while, then drove to the door of an elegant and exquisite house in the west.

The coachman went to knock on the door.

This knocking is quite particular. After four knocks, there is a pause, then one knock, a moment, two knocks, a pause, and two more knocks.

The person inside the door heard the signal and came over to open the door.

There was no surprise when he saw the carriage outside the door and the people standing in front of the carriage. The people were welcomed in, and the carriage also drove in through the side door with a swaying movement.

The house door was closed again.

In the west hall, someone served tea, and Shao Mingde became a little restless.The person who informed him had already gone in, and he had to wait for a reply from inside.

After a while, a servant came and led Shao Mingde forward, stopping in front of the attic on the back right side of the garden.The servant bowed his hands and said, "Sir, please go up on your own!"

Shao Mingde nodded slightly and stepped upstairs.

At the entrance to the corridor on the second floor, two guards stood there, one on the left and one on the right.

Shao Mingde paused slightly, and one of the guards said: "The master is in Xinuang Pavilion!"

At the door of Xinuang Pavilion, Shao Mingde knocked on the door and pushed in after receiving permission.

A man was sitting on a comfortable soft chair with his back to the door.There are flowers blooming outside the window, and the sky is high and the clouds are pale.On the tea table in front of the window, the water was bubbling and the fragrance of tea was lingering.

That man was dressed in rich clothes, with a noble air, and the bearing of a superior. Even if he didn't look back, Shao Mingde still respectfully handed over his hand: "Your Highness, I missed it!"

"Huh?" The displeased voice was filled with questions.

Shao Mingde said: "He was unharmed, I saw it with my own eyes!"

"I'll find another chance next time!"

"Yes, Your Highness!" Shao Mingde hesitated: "Then our people..."

"Don't worry, they are all dead soldiers. If they can't complete the task, they will end it themselves."

"Your Highness, I have something that I don't understand!"

"Say!"

"This Xia Chixiao is not an important person..."

"Stupid!" The two words made Shao Mingde stop talking. The man said: "Such a young second-grade general, as long as he takes over the military power, he will become a decisive figure in the court in the future. My father asked him to go to Beijing. Suburban Camp, this gives him a chance." "But the Emperor asked her to go to Lengtai Camp!"

The man snorted coldly: "You want to tell me that he may not be able to stand in the Lengtai Camp? But if he does, how passive will I be by then?"

Shao Mingde had seen Xia Chixiao look down upon Xia Haicheng today. This young general, who was widely rumored in the capital, looked a little weak and dull. He felt contempt in his heart and did not think highly of him.

But the man's words shocked him.

Don't be afraid of [-] in everything, just be afraid of what happens.

His Highness cut off all possibilities invisibly and nipped them in the bud.

He said: "Your Highness is wise!"

The man's voice was cold, with a sinister coldness, like the ice and snow that has not melted for many years, biting the bones: "It's not that I am cruel, it's because he was born in Liyanghou Mansion! He If he is born unable to be used by me, then I will have no choice but to destroy him!"

Early the next morning, Xia Chixiao received news from Gu Jing.

The person who was assassinated yesterday had already pried open his mouth.

Xia Chixiao made a trip in person.

Gu Jing is 24 years old, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, sharp edges and a calm expression, as if nothing can disturb his mood.

He now works as a shopkeeper in a grocery store.

This grocery store has been open for two years.

Gu Jing was one of the first people to enter Beijing, even earlier than Xia Chixiao.

This grocery store was once a place where Xia Chixiao's people came to the capital.

In a quiet room in the backyard, Gu Jing and Zhuo Zheng walked in and clasped their fists: "Master!"

They used to call him Major General, but later they slowly changed their name.

Xia Chixiao asked: "Who is the person behind them?"

Gu Jing spit out a name, and Xia Chixiao frowned.

He thought about it a few times, but he didn't expect it to be such an unexpected person.

After pondering for a moment, he said: "Since the fourth prince jumped out, let's check this line carefully!"

Zhuo Zheng said: "The line we checked before has nothing to do with the fourth prince Shang Yuanwei. Maybe we missed it! We will dig deeper into the line about the fourth prince and see if we can get anything else!"

Xia Chixiao has always wanted the truth ever since he discovered that there might be an inside story behind the death of Pei Zhang, Marquis of Xuanping, and that even when he led his troops to intercept the opponent's food and grass, it was just a conspiracy.

It just doesn't matter whether it's him or the hundred people who escaped with him.

It is not that easy to find a well-hidden clue when you are clueless.

What's more, the first thing they do is to determine the outcome of the war between the two countries!

Xia Chixiao said slowly: "Follow this line, and continue to follow the previous line. Don't let other things confuse the audition!"

Zhuo Zheng sighed: "Master, Han Zhantian hasn't been caught yet. If we can't find the person who revealed our army's secrets to Qianyuan Kingdom, we can't find the real person behind the scenes. The capital is far from what we saw in the north. That way.”

Gu Jing also said: "Although the crown prince has been decided early, the emperor has not suppressed the rise of the other princes. There is a turmoil among the princes. The master is now in Liyanghou Mansion and may be involved in the fight for the heir in the future." , do we need to do anything?”

Marquis Liyang's sister is Concubine Qing, and Concubine Qing is the mother-concubine of the eldest prince and the sixth prince. Xia Chixiao is also aware of Gu Jing and Zhuo Zheng's worries.

However, no one can choose his birth. He is the biological son of Marquis Liyang. This is an indisputable fact.

Xia Chixiao said: "Sooner or later, we will have to face these things, but the most important thing now is to find out the cause of dad's death and find out the cancer in the army and the evil thief in the court!"

Three years ago he was only a sixth-grade military general, and the commander-in-chief of the army was Xuan Ping Bo Pei Zhang.

He walked to the desk, took a pen, dipped it in ink, and wrote down the names one by one.
