Chapter 242 The Crown Prince
The prefect Guo had a good idea and sent his confidant to show off as a robber to go out, and he also went to the house where Xia Ting and the others settled.
However, as soon as they entered the yard, they were surrounded by the people led by Master Xia Si. Before they could resist, people soon came from outside the mansion and quickly surrounded them for a second time.
The confidants of the prefect Guo:???
What's going on?
I don't understand at all.
Didn’t the prefect say that it was just a group of weak people who could easily grasp it?
Mr. Xia was prepared for a long time. He brought not many people out for this trip, but there were his shops in Liuzhou. He called some guys, managers, and some errands and other errands, and also brought dozens of people together.
Just as Master Xia was about to give orders to tie up all the people sent by Prison Guo, another group of people jumped off the walls without taking the ordinary path.
This scared Master Xia Si. He thought that Prefect Guo had a backup plan?
To be on the safe side, Master Xia Si signaled to go to the wind and notify Xia Ting and the others and left first from the back door.
He was on the front.
But before we could leave with the wind, two of the people who rushed in later looked like leaders and opened the gate of the courtyard openly.
Master Xia Si:?
Are the robbers so unscrupulous now?
Just when he was watching the person walking in from outside the gate, Master Xia's heart instantly calmed down.
He signaled to follow the wind and stop leaving. At the same time, he took several steps forward and came to the young man wearing a thick black cloak with a handsome appearance and a jade-like temperament. He bowed and said, "Your Highness the Prince."
The one who came in was His Royal Highness Wen Xuanlin, the legitimate son of the Empress of the Central Palace, and the crown prince of the Eastern Palace that His Majesty valued the most.
Although there were two imperial envoys in the Puxian River Dike this time, the chief position was His Royal Highness.
The other party is only one year younger than Prince Shou, and his appearance is four or five points similar to Prince Shou Wen Sunian. Although he is also a handsome young man, after careful observation, he is not as exquisite as Prince Shou.
Although the two are of the same age, their temperaments are very different.
His Royal Highness is gentle and has a temperament as jade. In contrast, his thunderous means of dealing with things.
Prince Shou is cold-hearted and takes everything lightly. He has no other demands in the world except to live for a long time.
But recently, there is one more.
Sha Ting.
In addition to the differences in temperament and appearance, the two people also have their own styles and characteristics in their clothes.
Because of the influence of the Imperial Heavenly Prison, Prince Shou dressed in bright colors.
In order to show more stability, His Royal Highness prefers color, such as today's black green color, gray color, white color, autumn color, red sandalwood color, etc.
At this time, the prince with elegant temperament and gentle smiles, when he saw Master Xia bowing, he waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "Your Madam Xiaoyao doesn't have to be too polite. Can you come alone be in time? Those little ones hurt you, and..."
At the end of the day, His Royal Highness's long eyes flashed, his voice paused for a moment, and then he asked again: "How are the Sixth Girl and Ru Ning?"
Master Xia never expected that the Crown Prince came down so quickly. The people of Runing County Lord went out of the city to report the news in the afternoon. The distance from Xinzhou to Liuzhou was not close. Did the other party come all the way?
Although he was shocked, Master Xia was calm and bowed and replied: "Go back to Your Highness, everything is fine. The thief has just been surrounded."
Hearing that those people had not succeeded, His Royal Highness calmly breathed a sigh of relief.
"This matter is left to the orphan to solve, so you don't have to worry." Knowing that Xia Ting was fine, His Royal Highness really breathed a sigh of relief.
Prince Shou likes Xia Ting and wants to marry the other party as the princess. His Royal Highness already knows about the fact that Prince Shou likes Xia Ting.
If something happened to Xia Ting now, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would not dare to think about the consequences.
And I am in Xinzhou, and at that time, I will inevitably be angry with the Queen Mother.
Even though he was the crown prince of the Eastern Palace and the future emperor, he could not bear the wrath of the queen mother.
After all, that was his grandmother, his elder!
Furthermore, he was extremely partial and caring for Prince Shou, who was almost the same age as him. The other party's body as porcelain and a heart that was even weaker than porcelain. He knew that something happened to the princess he was optimistic about was wrong, so he couldn't say he would just go there.
Thinking of this possibility, the prince felt cold hands and feet and hated!
Now that I know that the time for me is just right, I can't breathe a sigh of relief.
He originally planned to enter the city early tomorrow morning, so naturally he was to investigate the Puxian River Embankment. The officials who were in charge of the construction of the river embankment are now promoted, so it is not easy to find them.
However, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had collected a lot of evidence and rushed to Liuzhou to take down the prefect Guo.
As a result, when he approached Liuzhou, he became inexplicably panicked, fearing that something would happen outside the city, so he asked the crowd to speed up, and then met Lu Ning's people at the location outside the city gate.
When he heard the people under Ru Ning come to report, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince turned cold and then signaled to the guards and rushed over.
When they came, the city gate was already closed.
However, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had a different identity and held the Shangfang sword. The city gate guards did not dare to stop him at all, so he easily entered the city and headed straight to Xia Ting and the others' residence.
"Thank you, Your Highness." The Fourth Master Xia just thought it was Ru Ning's person and reported the news in time, so His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came so coincidental.
When the other party comes, he will feel much more at ease.
No matter how powerful the governor Guo is, he will never take the prince seriously, right?
His Royal Highness looked gentle as jade, but in his heart, he had the emperor's iron-blooded means.
In this way, Master Xia Si doesn't need to worry about anything else.
His Highness the Crown Prince brought sixty guards, all of whom were selected from the guards of the capital. The twenty people found by the prefect Guo were no match for the opponent at all and were quickly taken down.
Then His Highness the Crown Prince took his men to the residence of Prefect Guo overnight.
Because everything happened in the front yard, Sha Ting and the others did not hear any movement.
She and Ru Ning went to bed after eating. Ru Ning still wanted to squeeze into the same place with Xia Ting to sleep. Each of the two maids came out to guard the night.
Baoqing was on duty tonight. She heard some noise. After talking to the maid on duty next to Runing County Lord, she quietly went out to inquire about the news.
As soon as Baoqing left the yard, he came from the other side.
Seeing him, Baoqing hurriedly grabbed someone and asked.
When he heard that there were thieves entering the house, fortunately, the prince had taken the person away in time, and Baoqing breathed a sigh of relief.
Xia Ting and Ru Ning had a good sleep all night and had no idea about this.
It was the next day when I got up early and when I changed my clothes, I heard Baoqing whisper to him.
"Is Your Highness the Crown Prince so fast?" Xia Ting was a little surprised. He was worried at first. What if the prefect Guo was playing tricks on his face?
Although there is a bad luck card, it also needs to be done just in case.
