Chapter 424 Xie Ying and Situ Yuan Join Forces to Do Something Big
Luo Zheng soon set off for Gusu as an imperial envoy.
It was drizzling the day he left, and the whole sky was filled with mist and rain, which made people feel depressed.
Tu Jiaojiao was a little worried, so she sent the servants away and whispered to Xie Xiu, "Is my uncle okay? I've seen imperial envoys in storybooks get into trouble easily, and that King Zhou is no pushover either."
Xie Xiu frowned, equally worried.
Unfortunately, he couldn't stop it or even help much.
He asked his uncle, who said that this was the intention of His Majesty and Concubine Jiang, and he could only agree and not refuse. Moreover, the King of Zhou and he had a deep blood feud, and now he finally had the opportunity to seek revenge. Even if Gusu was a dangerous place, he would definitely go and take risks.
His uncle also comforted him, saying that he was going to seek revenge, not to die, and that he would find a way to save his life.
Xie Xiu was well aware that Luo Zheng's journey was extremely dangerous.
Although judging from the news released by King Zhou, the other party did not want to rebel now, and it was very likely that they were not fully prepared.
But just be afraid of everything.
If Luo Zheng really pushes King Zhou into a corner, the other party will most likely be doomed to failure!
Once King Zhou decides to rebel, the imperial envoy Luo Zheng will definitely be killed as a sacrifice!
Unfortunately, he was not a military commander and did not have a large army under his command. Now he could only wait for news from Luo Zheng in the capital, and find ways to build momentum for him so that King Zhou would be hesitant to take action.
Xie Xiu comforted Tu Jiaojiao: "Don't worry, your uncle should have been prepared."
Tu Jiaojiao sighed and suddenly said, "Yingying was taken away by the young prince to play again. She's still so young, why does she always like running outside?"
Xie Xiu felt somewhat helpless upon hearing this. His daughter always liked to run off to play with the brats outside. He wanted to stop her, but his daughter had a special background, so what could he do?
Xie Xiu could only comfort Tu Jiaojiao: "Don't worry, Yingying just went next door, she'll be fine."
Tu Jiaojiao thought so too.
My daughter just ran to play next door, not to the mountains. What could happen?
What the two of them didn't know was that Xie Ying was not only in the Princess's Mansion at this time, but Lin Xiao was also sitting in front of her.
Lin Xiao has not had an easy time recently because the incident Xie Ying had caused was too serious and he had the bad luck to take the blame, and the court has been trying to find him.
Wanted posters for his arrest were posted everywhere, forcing him to hide in the mountains and sleep in the open air these days.
He wanted to run away, but Xie Ying wouldn't let him, so he couldn't get out at all.
As long as I run a certain distance, I will feel severe pain all over my body.
After coming back, he was able to return to normal, as if all the pain was just his illusion.
Lin Xiao was so angry after being tortured, but he didn't want to die, so he could only live like this for the time being.
What horrified him was that when he woke up this morning, there was a small oil-paper bag on the branch next to him!
After opening it, there was a note inside telling him to go somewhere.
He didn't want to go, but he was really afraid of Xie Ying's methods, so after hesitating for a long time, he still went there secretly.
As soon as he arrived at the place, someone helped him disguise himself and then took him to the Princess's Mansion.
Lin Xiao silently looked at Situ Yuan who was sitting not far away, and felt that he had discovered a big secret - it turned out that not only the little lucky star of the Xie family was a little monster, but the sickly boy of the Princess's Mansion was also a little monster!
He is now being targeted by two little monsters. Will he be able to survive in the future?
Lin Xiao was madly complaining in his heart when he heard Situ Yuan ask, "Did you remember what I asked you to do?"
He shuddered all over, then made a mournful face and said, "Luo Zheng is now an imperial envoy, like the emperor himself! If I assassinate him, the court will never let me go!"
He just wants to live a good life and doesn't want to die young!
These two little monsters actually made him do such a terrible thing. Didn’t they really want to kill him?
"After you do this, I can not only change your face, but also change your identity so that you can live a legitimate life in the future."
Situ Yuan looked at Lin Xiao with a half-smile, "You have to think it over carefully. You have already been branded as a member of the Zhou Palace. Even if you don't do this, there is no place for you in this world."
Lin Xiao hesitated for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth and asked, "Your Highness, can you really let me change my face?"
Situ Yuan took out a small box and opened it, revealing an unknown white powder inside.
He said calmly, "This medicine is extremely valuable, but it can instantly heal wounds without leaving scars. Would you like to try it?"
Lin Xiao really wanted to say that he didn't want to, but facing the two little monsters Situ Yuan and Xie Ying, he could only grit his teeth and pull up his sleeves, revealing his left forearm.
Situ Yuan took out a knife, walked up to him and gently cut a small cut on his forearm.
Seeing that the wound was neither big nor deep, Lin Xiao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief: It seems that the person in front of him is much more merciful than the little monster of the Xie family. Perhaps the other party really doesn't want his life.
Situ Yuan sprinkled some more medicine powder on Lin Xiao's wound.
Lin Xiao watched curiously, not believing that this white powder could truly heal wounds instantly. In all his years, he had never seen such a miraculous medicine!
Unexpectedly, as he was complaining in his heart, he saw the small cut on his arm slowly healing at a speed visible to the naked eye!
He even saw countless thin threads pulling his wounds together!
Seeing the wound healing instantly right under his eyes, Lin Xiao wiped off the remaining blood on his skin with his hand in disbelief, stared at the injured place, and rubbed it hard with his fingers.
No!
The small cut just now is really gone!
How could this be?
Was there something wrong with his memory? Or had the other party used some magical illusion on him, just like what was written in the storybook?
Lin Xiao rubbed it hard again, but still found no signs of wounds.
He looked at the bloodstain he had wiped off earlier and even put it under his nose to smell it. The smell of blood was very distinct, it was definitely blood.
So how did the other party do it?
Could it be that the powder really has such miraculous effects?
Lin Xiao's mind raced, and he quickly asked, "I wonder how much of this medicinal powder Your Highness has?"
Situ Yuan smiled meaningfully. "Although this item is rare and precious, I still have some. Now, have you decided what to do?"
Lin Xiao knelt on one knee with a thud: "I am Lin Xiao, a humble servant, and I am willing to die for you two!"
Xie Ying looked at his smooth movements and was secretly speechless: This guy really knows how to adapt to the times. As soon as he saw there was a benefit, he immediately agreed.
Situ Yuan handed him the small medicine box and said, "Go ahead. Once you're done, rush back to the capital and go directly to that small courtyard. When the time comes, I'll have someone change your face."
Lin Xiao quickly took the small medicine box and stuffed it directly into his arms, then he promised solemnly: "I've remembered it and will definitely see to it!"
Xie Ying suddenly snorted.
Situ Yuan quickly warned: "Just act it out, don't really kill Luo Zheng."
Lin Xiao looked at Xie Ying suspiciously: Could this be the one who really makes the decision?
