Chapter 300 Her second brother is still too perceptive.
Song Ci'an also stopped abruptly.
What did Xie Xing mean by these words?
Xie Yuze is dead?
Xie Xing kept her head down, unaware of the two's unusual behavior. Just as she looked up, Song Ci'an spoke up, "General? What's wrong?"
Song Ci'an was unaware that Xie Tongchen could also hear Xie Xing's thoughts; he was only worried that Xie Tongchen might recognize Xie Xing.
After all, Xie Tongchen disliked Xie Xing so much that, if possible, he didn't want the Xie family to have any further involvement with Xie Xing.
For a moment, Xie Tongchen almost lost control of his body, rushed to Xie Xing, grabbed her wrist, and asked what had happened.
But the moment Xie Xing looked up, Xie Tongchen saw an unfamiliar face, and he calmed down.
Not Xie Xing?
How could he hear Xie Xing's thoughts?
"Who is he?" Xie Tongchen's voice was icy cold.
Song Ci'an was equally impolite to Xie Tongchen, saying, "This is my fellow townsman, who also wants to join the army. I hope the general will make an exception for him."
"Fellow townsman?" Xie Tongchen casually wiped his cut hand with a handkerchief and came to Xie Xing's side.
Xie Xing was petite. Standing between Xie Tongchen and Song Ci'an, he only reached their shoulders. He even had to look up at Xie Tongchen.
Xie Tongchen swiftly sheathed his sword, bent down, and stared coldly at Xie Xing.
After staring at her face for a long time, I finally noticed something amiss on the side of her face.
This is--
Human skin mask?
Xie Tongchen chuckled: "Your fellow villager looks petite and young. How old is he?"
"Has she been weaned?"
"What can she do if she joins the army? Will she just give her life to the enemy?"
Song Ci'an stepped in front of Xie Xing and said, "There's no need for the young general to worry about that. After all, he's from the same hometown, so it's naturally my responsibility."
"Would the young general agree?"
Xie Xing hid behind Song Ci'an, peeked out, glanced at Song Ci'an and then at Xie Tongchen.
Although Second Brother appears to be Xie Tongchen's subordinate, he acts as arrogantly as if he were Xie Tongchen's superior.
Song Ci'an: "..."
Xie Tongchen's expression grew even colder.
He remained expressionless and said coldly, "Since someone has come to die, why should I disagree?"
"It's just a matter of losing your life anyway."
Xie Tongchen angrily flicked his sleeves and turned his back to the two men.
Song Ci'an smiled and said, "Then thank you very much, Young General."
"Let's go."
With that, Song Ci'an pulled Xie Xing and turned to leave.
As he left, Xie Tongchen glanced at their retreating figures.
He frowned.
Why is Xie Xing here?
Shouldn't she be imprisoned in the palace?
And what about the part in her heart, where did Mingzhu kill the third brother?
Is this true or false?
Xie Tongchen couldn't believe that what he was saying was true.
How can it be? ?
Even according to the so-called plot in Xin Sheng's mind, the third brother shouldn't be the first to die, right?
Xie Tongchen was in a state of turmoil and could not calm down, so he could only send a letter to Jun Lanjin in Shengjing.
The Xie family members were either imprisoned or trapped in the Xie family compound, and no one could receive letters written to them.
the other side.
Song Ci'an and Xie Xing had just come out of Xie Tongchen's place when they happened to run into Luo Hanfeng, who was coming out of his tent.
Luo Hanfeng was standing in front of the moon at that moment, his hands behind his back, gazing intently at the moon.
"Seventh Prince." Upon seeing Luo Hanfeng, Song Ci'an quickly raised his hand and bowed to him.
Luo Hanfeng hummed in agreement. He shifted his gaze from the tiger to Song Ci'an, and finally to Xie Xing behind Song Ci'an.
He glanced at Xie Xing, but didn't recognize her. Instead, he turned to look at the moon and asked, "Where did this tiger come from?"
"This prince finds it somewhat familiar."
Xie Xing's heart skipped a beat.
[Oh no, Luo Hanfeng saw the moon before too. If he recognizes it, won't he start suspecting me?]
[How about we just say it's my brother's pet?]
But I already admitted it was mine. Besides, saying it's my brother's pet is just burying my head in the sand, isn't it?
As soon as the thought arose, Luo Hanfeng's gaze sharpened and instantly fell on Xie Xing.
He hadn't doubted Xie Xing's identity before, after all, he had just seen her fall into the Xie family's secret passage a few days ago, and now he saw Xie Xing reappear in front of him, which was too much of a coincidence.
It was such a coincidence that even he couldn't believe it.
However, this is the reality.
If it weren't for her inner thoughts, she would have almost escaped right under my nose.
Luo Hanfeng's lips curled into a smile: "Hmm? Is this tiger yours?"
Xie Xing was stunned for a moment. She looked around and made sure that Luo Hanfeng was really talking to her, so she could only nod: "This humble subject greets Your Highness the Seventh Prince. How did Your Highness know that this tiger belongs to this humble subject?"
Xie Xing's acting was really convincing.
Luo Hanfeng chuckled and said, "Before you came, there were no tigers in the army. After you came, there is a tiger in the army. It is obvious whose it is."
"Besides..." Luo Hanfeng paused, "Soldiers of such petite stature are indeed rare in the army."
Xie Xing was a little embarrassed.
Song Ci'an then said, "Seventh Prince, this is my fellow townsman, who also wishes to participate."
"I have already asked the young general, and he has approved it."
"Is that so?" Luo Hanfeng's voice was meaningful. He glanced at Xie Xing and repeated, "The young general already knows."
Luo Hanfeng walked towards the two of them.
As he passed Xie Xing, he casually patted Xie Xing's shoulder: "Your tiger is quite nice, I like it."
Xie Xing's shoulder was shrunk by half from being patted.
She wore an awkward smile, but it faded completely after Luo Hanfeng had left. She rubbed her shoulder, hissed, and complained, "Was he doing that on purpose?"
Song Ci'an narrowed his eyes as he watched Luo Hanfeng's retreating figure.
"This seventh prince has a reputation, and although he is a good-for-nothing, I think he is not simple. From now on, you should not see him alone. If anything happens, you must tell me immediately."
Song Ci'an grabbed Xie Xing's ponytail and said.
Xie Xing looked at Song Ci'an with admiration.
At a time when no one considered Luo Hanfeng a significant figure, my second brother was already able to sense his presence solely through intuition. He had already won half the battle; no wonder he would become a great general in the future.
Song Ci'an curled up the corners of her lips.
The system replied: "[Even as a great general, he didn't hold the position for long; he died soon after.]"
Song Ci'an: "..."
His lips were pulled back.
……
Wangfu.
Jun Lanjin's bodyguards knelt in rows before him, all bowing their heads and saying in deep voices, "Your Highness, we have not found any trace of Xie Xing at the Xie family."
