C711 Watching from the Sidelines
Now that the topic has changed, both of them are not as comfortable as they were at the beginning. After a few more words, Fu Lin returned to the Palace. Zhang Jingxuan, on the other hand, felt a little frustrated. Fu Lin had obviously trapped him, but if he didn't agree to it... It might have turned into a stalemate at that time. Tang Shaoshao was still in the middle of recuperating. At this moment, she couldn't move freely.
Fortunately, he had so many brothers and friends now. Therefore, Zhang Jingxuan was not very worried. Now, he had to make a trip out of the Palace and report this matter to Ye Shiyuan and the others. He also wanted to get information from them. But leaving Tang Shaoshao alone in the Palace, he really did not feel at ease. He returned to his room a little sulkily. Tang Shaoshao saw that he came back so quickly. The expression on her face was also not very happy, so she asked what happened to him. Zhang Jingxuan told her everything in detail and she immediately smiled.
"I say, Sect Leader Zhang, you forgot. My surname is Tang. Even if I'm injured right now, it's not convenient for me to fight someone. But as long as I place a restriction in this courtyard, I believe that anyone under the heavens would dare to barge in so easily. There aren't many. "
"Oh, oh, look at me. I forgot about this part. Now that you mention it, I have another worry. I went out for a while, and when I came back, I saw a large number of people lying on the ground. The maidservants, old nannies, and guards were all poisoned to death. The emperor of the Qing Dynasty was left alone. From then on, the world would be peaceful. You have done a meritorious deed. "
"Ha, don't tease me. You tell people not to disturb me. I'll put down the restriction again. Ordinary people are unable to enter. Hurry up and go back, or else looking at you like this... You won't be able to eat or sleep."
"Okay, I'll be right back. Oh right, your restriction. Don't poison me when the time comes!"
"That won't happen! After you consume the antidote of my Facechanging Poison, my other poisons will no longer have any effect on you."
These words frightened Zhang Jingxuan once again. This Face Changing Poison really had a unique personality. A single poison could not kill a person. Could it be that he would no longer be a poisonous person in the future? Unexpectedly, Tang Shaoshao followed up with another sentence, "Other poisons are ineffective, but if you are poisoned by the poison of changing faces again... Then there is no way to save you anymore. Even I am powerless. So... "The meaning in her words was self-evident.
Zhang Jingxuan smiled bitterly." Eldest Miss, how would I dare to offend you? Furthermore, I have already hit you twice, and you didn't get angry at me. How could I beat you up again if I don't know what's good for me? "
When he said this, Tang Shaoshao's eyes seemed to be a little red. This was very rare for her. However, she immediately put on a straight face, "It's good that you remember. Go do what you should do. There is no one here that is an eyesore."
"Okay, disappear immediately." Zhang Jingxuan was not unhappy at all after being robbed. He was used to being shameless and felt that he owed Tang Shaoshao. Furthermore, Tang Shaoshao's tone also had a feeling that she was not an outsider. Zhang Jingxuan, who walked out of the door, shook his head. He only felt that the relationship between him and this woman was... It was really a little strange. Originally, they were enemies. It was as if they were going to fight to the death. But now, she poisoned him and gave him the antidote. And he injured the other party and saved her at the cost of his life. These inextricable relationships were truly irreparable and chaotic.
He shook his head and threw these thoughts that he did not know what they were to the side. There was still a large basket of worries on Zhang Jingxuan's mind at the moment. First of all, he didn't even know who the "criminal" who was going to be executed tomorrow was. When the time came, who would be the invigilator? Why did Fu Lin want him to be a bystander? He couldn't come in person. That was why he hoped to get a description from him. This was in line with his character. Fu Lin had always been itching for a show like this. However, his identity must have made it impossible for him to witness everything that had happened. This also meant that tomorrow at the execution ground... Something was bound to happen. Furthermore, it wouldn't be a small matter!
After leaving the palace, Zhang Jingxuan naturally wouldn't go straight to his destination. He casually walked a few rounds around the bustling market and discovered the message that Mi Ouping had left for him. Those clues that ordinary people couldn't notice were indeed the way they sent the message. The people of Mi family were strange and tricky, it was hard to imagine.
From the short message sent over, Zhang Jingxuan knew that Ye Shiyuan, Mi Ouping, and the others would at most stay in that house for another day, and they would have to change their foothold.
Zhang Jingxuan's figure went back and forth for a few rounds, but there was no trace of him. The people who followed him were at a loss for what to do. Fortunately, they were used to it and returned to report resentfully.
When he saw Ye Shiyuan, Mi Ouping, and the others, Zhang Jingxuan first asked them if any of their friends had been captured by accident. However, looking at the expressions of Ye Shiyuan and the others, he knew that none of them had anything to do with it.
However, the following news still made Zhang Jingxuan frown. As expected, the few people who were going to be executed tomorrow were the ones he recognized. They were the few people from the Qilian Four Evils that he had not heard from for a long time.
Qi Yukun, Looh Jie, Si Gulai, and E Dongwen. These four people were called the Qilian Four Evils because of their names. In fact, they were not bad people after getting in touch with each other. The eldest Qi Yukun was injured by the poisoned weapons of the Japanese ninjas in order to save Zheng Mingyan. The rest of his brothers were very close to each other, and they would not abandon each other even if they were in danger. They seemed to be working for the Ming Dynasty, and they did not know why they came to Shengjing. Could it be that some of the braids were really done by them? They also did not know if it was because of the assassination of Bo Mu Bogor in the palace. Even though their martial arts were not bad, however, if they could come and go freely in the palace of the Qing Dynasty... Zhang Jingxuan still did not believe that they could assassinate the little prince.
No matter what, he could not watch these few fellows, who were once comrades in arms, get beheaded just like that. Therefore, Zhang Jingxuan discussed with Faang Tiandao, Mi Shenmeng, and the others how to save these few people. In the end, they were directly opposed by Mi Shenmeng.
"Save them? This kind of business was the most arduous and unrewarding. If it wasn't for the fact that Old Man Mi couldn't see through Ye Xiangqi, he wouldn't have been plotted against by that old fool, Ye Xiangqi. Haha, if you want to save someone, you can go. I'm not going. "
This sentence rendered Zhang Jingxuan speechless. Indeed, if it wasn't for the fact that the boss of the Mi family wanted to help him, if that was the case, other people would want to plot against him. It was impossible. Zhang Jingxuan's gratitude and shame were deeply buried in his heart.
