"Well, I'm going to aggravate you a little this time. I am Mr. Xie and you are Xiao Zhang!" Xie Yunxiao said with a smile.
Qin Zheng also smiled and said: "No grievance, no grievance!"
This boy followed Xie Yunxiao, and the image of a naughty boy was once again vividly reflected.
Xie Yunxiao didn't say anything, and the two of them walked towards the door.
The door opened, walked out of the alley, and came to the main street, but it was very lively with people coming and going.
The vendors shouted in a long voice, with a certain rhythm, like a local song, which was helpful to attract customers.
There is joy and joy in the conversation and laughter of passers-by.
This is the first time Qin Zheng has come to Xianyang, and it is also the first time he has seen people from Xianyang.
The liveliness here is different from that of Zhao State. It seems that people here have an inexplicable aura. If I say it more carefully, this joy comes from the heart. They have a sense of belonging here. Be proud of being a Ningren.
"Master, I suddenly felt that it would be great if I could come back earlier!" Qin Zheng said.
Xie Yunxiao said: "It's not too late to come back now. Well, Xiao Zhang, you should call me Master!"
His voice suddenly had a sense of age, he really looked like an old man.
Qin Zheng was startled for a moment, then he shouted with a smile: "Master, are we going to the east city gate now?"
"Yeah!" Xie Yunxiao subconsciously stroked the fake beard, it looked stylish.
Qin Zheng really wanted to go up and pull off Xie Yunxiao's fake beard, but in the end he held back.
Xie Yunxiao's house was originally located in the outer city of the East City. It took less than half a stick of incense to get to the East City Gate. In the distance, soldiers could be seen standing on the city wall.
Obviously, ordinary people cannot climb the city wall.
"Teacher...master, you can't see anything from this!" Qin Zheng said.
Xie Yunxiao said: "Have you forgotten what I taught you?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Zheng looked at the guards on the city wall again.
There is no war in Ningguo, and it is now considered peaceful. However, these soldiers are highly vigilant and look outside the city wall. Is it because of discipline or something else?
"No, although his eyes are staring outside the city wall, looking from the side, it can be clearly seen that they are not looking at the distance warily, but more like they are looking for something. Could it be that they are looking for me? ?”
Qin Zheng's eyes flickered, and he whispered to Xie Yunxiao.
"You see? These guards on the city wall are the guards of the imperial city. Logically speaking, they should not appear on the outer city wall!" Xie Yunxiao said lightly.
Qin Zheng suddenly realized that Xie Yunxiao had told him about the uniforms of the guards in Ningguo Imperial City, but he had not noticed it just now.
"Are they my father's men?" Qin Zheng said.
Xie Yunxiao shook his head: "Maybe they are just wolves wearing imperial city guard uniforms. Their eyes are more like catching prey, aren't they?"
Qin Zheng was stunned for a moment, thinking, am I the prey?
Inexplicably, Qin Zheng felt angry in his heart.
"How dare they stand on the city wall so blatantly?" Qin Zheng said.
Xie Yunxiao said: "It is generally rare for the imperial city guards to go to the outer city wall, but it is not uncommon. If it were not for our special status, and if we think of another possibility, we would naturally not be suspicious!"
Qin Zheng nodded, and at this moment, the sound of horse hooves came from the other side of the street, and the man on horseback shouted: "Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"
Xie Yunxiao and Qin Zheng stood on the edge of the street. The men on horseback went straight to the outer city gate and dismounted at the gate.
The leader was more than eight feet long, and every move he made gave people a strong sense of strength. His eyebrows were thick, but his complexion was very fair.
"This is the third prince Qin Sheng!" Xie Yunxiao said.
Qin Zheng was stunned for a moment, with a look of surprise on his face.
The third prince is fourteen years and eight months old. In four months, he will be fifteen years old.
She is more than a year younger than him, but with such a figure, Qin Zheng cannot compare.
"If you eat well in the palace, your body will look good!" Qin Zheng said.
Xie Yunxiao smiled and said: "You seem to be eating well in Zhao State!"
Qin Zheng laughed dryly. Because he knew how to hide himself and knew what Zhao wanted to see, he did live a good life in Zhao.
"Why is he here? Is the Blood Moon Sect related to him?" Qin Zheng looked solemn.
Xie Yunxiao shook his head: "It's hard to say. It seems that the water in Xianyang is deeper and muddier than I thought!"
"You said, does my father know that we are back?" Qin Zheng has not seen Prince Ning since he was born. He was a little nervous. He didn't know what to say or do when he saw this father he had never met before. Something.
Xie Yunxiao said: "I had people send the news back a long time ago. Zhao Guo should also send a message to Ning Guo Chaotang. He knows that we are coming back. As for the day when we will come back, he definitely doesn't know!"
Qin Zhengdao: "He must know that there are people in the court who don't want me to come back alive!"
Xie Yunxiao nodded: "Chaotang, this has always been the case!"
"But he has never cared about my life or death!" Qin Zheng had a look of grievance in his eyes.
Xie Yunxiao said: "Being born in the royal family is both lucky and unfortunate. What he did may be a test for you. Only the eldest son who comes back alive has a greater chance without a foundation. Survive in Xianyang!"
"So returning to Xianyang is more dangerous than being in Zhao!" Qin Zheng's eyes were sharp.
Xie Yunxiao glanced at Qin Zheng: "Do you regret it?"
Qin Zheng chuckled lightly, his eyes full of indifference, and he just heard him say: "I think the people who should regret are those who target me and want me to die!"
There was an inexplicable coldness in his words.
Xie Yunxiao didn't say anything. Although he couldn't bear it in his heart, this was what Qin Zheng was going to face.
Just then, there was another sound of horse hooves.
This time, there were fifteen people in total, the leader of whom was tall and tall, with delicate features and elegant eyes.
Xie Yunxiao said: "This is the second prince Qin Jiao, who is also the son of the current queen Qiao Yu. This man is very scheming and ruthless. Don't be deceived by his appearance!"
"It's unimaginable that your brothers have gathered at the east city wall. Are they all looking forward to the return of your eldest brother?" Xie Yunxiao had an inexplicable and profound smile on his face.
Qin Zheng said quietly: "It seems that they don't want me to come back!"
Xie Yunxiao smiled and said: "You, the big brother, seem to be quite a failure!"
Qin Zheng rolled his eyes and said, "Master, have you changed?"
Xie Yunxiao was stunned: "Really?"
"You have become bad!" Qin Zheng said.
"Really?" Xie Yunxiao rolled his eyes again. He didn't want to pay attention to this apprentice.
After the second prince Qin Jiao arrived, he walked up the city wall and came to the third prince Qin Sheng.
"The second brother is coming to Dongcheng so late. Could it be that he hopes that the eldest brother will come back soon so that he can be welcomed here?" Qin Sheng asked.
Qin Jiao smiled faintly: "My brother, this is natural. Third brother, are you here to pick up your eldest brother at the city wall?"
"I was just out walking around, and I happened to come to Dongcheng, so I wanted to stand higher and see further!" Qin Sheng really has a way of bragging.
The smile on Qin Jiao's face continued: "Really? I didn't expect the third brother to be so interested, but after hearing what you said, don't you hope that the eldest brother will come back?"
"Whether my eldest brother comes back or not has nothing to do with me. After all, I haven't seen him since he was a child!" Qin Sheng said.
It seems that his words may sound harsh, but they are an indisputable fact.
"No, the relationship will be great when the eldest brother comes back. Have you heard? Recently, my father has vacated the Qianyuan Palace in the east. I heard that it is for the eldest brother to live in. Although my father has never seen it since he was a child, Big brother, but the position of eldest brother in father’s heart is obviously..."
Qin Jiao didn't finish his words, but smart people could understand the meaning of his words.
Qin Sheng's eyes flashed with displeasure, he snorted coldly, turned around and left.
"Are you really back?" Qin Jiao ignored Qin Sheng who left, but looked at the deep night sky. His eyes were as deep as the night sky.
After standing on the city wall for about a cup of tea, Qin Jiao also walked down the city wall and left on his horse.
Xie Yunxiao and Qin Zheng had been listening to his brother's conversation not far away.
"It seems that the brothers are very interesting!" Xie Yunxiao said.
Qin Zhengdao: "Of course they are interesting!"
"Can you make up your mind?" Xie Yunxiao asked.
Qin Zheng was stunned for a moment: "What?"
Xie Yunxiao said: "Do you think I brought you here to see the city wall today? I wanted to see your brothers!"
This is just a joke. The most important thing here is to see the situation at the city wall and prepare for entering the city tomorrow.
"Did you know they would come?" Qin Zheng asked.
Xie Yunxiao said: "I don't know, I'm just trying my luck. After all, they all care about you, my eldest brother. I didn't expect such good luck!"
Qin Zheng sighed: "I'm really flattered that they care so much!"
Hearing this, Xie Yunxiao smiled calmly. If Qin Zheng could make up his mind immediately without any hesitation, then he should think about whether to continue to assist him.
Fortunately, Qin Zheng did not disappoint him, but in this way, their road was destined to be more difficult.
But Xie Yunxiao is not afraid. What he is afraid of is a person who is completely ruthless and cold-blooded.
"Go back, we have to get up earlier tomorrow!" Xie Yunxiao said.
The two masters and apprentices returned to Xie Yunxiao's house. When they looked up, Qin Zheng smiled and said: "The one you have in Zhao is the Yayuan, and the one here is the Humble Garden. Master, do you have both in the other six countries?" house?"
"If you're doing business, you can't stay in an inn every day, right? It's inevitable to buy some houses!" Xie Yunxiao said.
The smile on Qin Zheng's face continued: "They say a cunning rabbit has three burrows. Master has six burrows. It seems that if we fail, we won't have to worry about having nowhere to go!"
"Bah, bah, bah!" Xie Yunxiao rolled his eyes, couldn't this kid say something auspicious? We just arrived in Xianyang tonight, and everything hasn’t started yet!
Qin Zheng laughed, very happy.
The two masters changed back to their original makeup and returned to the remote village.
"Your Highness, Young Master, people from outside came to report that there were officers and soldiers in Xianyang, and they had been traveling for more than 20 miles. Fortunately, our village is remote and they didn't find it!" Xiao An said.
Qin Zhengdao: "It would be abnormal if they don't come out. Keep paying attention to their every move and see if you can tell who they are!"
