Chapter 21 Save People
The little girl leaned obliquely on Liu Xia's shoulder and felt the temperature of Liu Xia's palm. She looked up at Liu Xia and kissed Liu Xia on the cheek.
"Stupid brother, what are you thinking about?"
Lingling looked at Liu Xia's thoughtfulness and asked curiously.
"It's okay."
Liu Xia said with a faint smile.
Today, I suddenly heard Lingling talking about the marriage proposal, and I couldn't help ringing the alarm for Liu Xia.
As a princess, Lingling's father is one of the eight iron hat kings and has great influence.
The marriage of aristocrats is not a rare thing.
As a spiritual person and the status of his mother's family, I'm afraid that he will be married by the emperor.
And the candidates for marriage are those princes.
Of course, those princes will not let go of this opportunity.
In this way, Liu Xia is very passive.
You have to find a way to solve it. If he rushes this request to the emperor, as Liu Xia knows the emperor at present, he doesn't know that the emperor will do this.
After all, Lingling's father holds the military power.
"Cut, it's a lie. In the past, when I saw Yunzong, whenever you encountered any problem, it would be this expression.
"Oh, you still know your brother."
Say this, Liu Xia hugged Lingling tightly.
"Idiot, I know what you're thinking. In fact, you have to make this clear to the emperor as soon as possible. You have no father or mother, and you don't have an argument for you. You have to do this by yourself. I heard from my father that the emperor loves you very much.
"I hope so. Your family's influence is too great. I guess the emperor already has a plan in his heart. I have to find the right time to bring this matter up.
"Look, it scared you. I was just talking about it. Don't worry, I, Duan Lingling, life is your person, and death is your dead person. No one will marry in my life except you.
Ling Ling said firmly.
"Less nonsense. You have to trust your brother. This little thing is not difficult for me.
Liu Xia smiled and couldn't help lowering her head, lifting the Lingling's neckline and looking inward.
"Oh, you're going to die."
Ling Ling blushed shyly and hurriedly pushed Liu Xia away.
"You're stingy, just think your brother hasn't seen it. In those years, I didn't know who it was. I often pestered your brother to take a shower.
"If you talk nonsense again, I will be angry."
Lingling knocked Liu Xia's head fiercely and said angrily.
"Okay, no more. Let's go to bed."
Say this, Liu Xia lay down**.
Lingling grabbed his ear and said, "I want to go back to your palace to sleep. Get up, scoundrel."
Liu Xia held her in his arms and pressed her to **.
Lingling struggled a few times, but he really didn't have as much strength as Liu Xia, so he gave up.
The two of them watched like this until it was slightly dawn, and Lingling fell asleep drowsily.
Liu Xia covered Lingling with a quilt and slipped out of the window.
Immediately, Liu Xia returned to Yuan Binglong's mansion.
Yuan Binglong was obviously busy all night and just came back.
When he saw Liu Xia, he hugged his fist and said, "Your Majesty, I asked around last night, but I happened to meet an old friend. His caravan happened to pass by there that day, and I saw the whole process. It is Qianhu Ma Xiao of the Metropolitan Inspection Yuan who is responsible for the investigation of the Bai family's caravan. I have ordered my brothers to inquire about his residence. Please wait a moment, my lord.
"You really have some way."
Liu Xia breathed a sigh of relief.
"The prince praised me. I have made a lot of friends in Longdu in the past few years. There are three schools and nine schools, and the major gangs all have some friendship. It's easy to ask about something.
After waiting for half an hour, someone came back in a hurry and said, "It's clear. The Qianhu named Ma Xiao lives in Dongcheng. There is a wife and a concubine in the family, and there are parents. There are also two children."
"Go to Baifu to deliver letters and let my sister come here to find me. Hurry up."
Liu Xia said.
Yuan Binglong didn't say anything, so he went there in person.
An hour later, Cai Wei came back with Yuan Binglong.
"Cai Wei, you will follow Ma Xiao later. His every move will be stung. If anything happens, you can ask Yuan Binglong to inform me immediately. I have to go back to the royal palace.
Liu Xia said.
"Brother, what's going on? Sister Wenxin and I are very worried about you.
"Don't worry, it's a small thing. I was under house arrest by the emperor. Let me think about it behind closed doors. This Tuoba Lingyun, the key to Brother Bai, how can I stand by and watch? This person is very important. You must keep an eye on him.
Liu Xia told him.
"Brother, don't worry."
Cai Wei said confidently.
Yuan Binglong was stunned on one side. Obviously, his prince was working with the Metropolitan Inspection Yuan.
Naturally, I'm a little scared.
"Brother Yuan, you go with Lingling."
After saying that, Liu Xia went out of the door and hurried towards the royal palace.
Return to the palace, the sky is bright.
Dabao's snoring is like thunder.
Liu Xia sat in the yard, sat cross-legged, and began to practice.
All day, nothing happened in the palace.
Waiting until the evening, Liu Xia received a secret letter from Yuan Binglong.
The letter was delivered by Lingling's captive carrier pigeon. After opening it, it said that Ma Xiao had left the city.
Liu Xia immediately got up, changed her clothes, put on a human skin mask, and quietly slipped away from the royal palace.
——————————————————————————————
Outside the city, the sun was setting, and the people who had been working all day hurried to the city.
And a carriage of the Metropolitan Inspection House went against the crowd and went straight out of the city.
In the car, there are two people sitting, one of whom is Wang Tianyun, the confidant of Tuoba Lingyun.
The other person, wearing a flying fish suit, is in his forties, not tall, slightly fat, and has a few rays of beards on his jaw. It is Ma Xiao, a thousand households in the Inspectorate.
"Brother Wang, why do you have Yaxing today? Go out of the city for a drink?"
Ma Xiao asked doubtfully.
"Brother Ma, it's just a supervisor. Tonight, the supervisor will buy you a drink in another courtyard outside the city. This is a good thing. As you know, Mr. Zhao is going to retire. Among the thousands of households, there must be a position to replace Mr. Zhao. And your boy has been a deputy for so many years. Today, the supervisor will personally invite you to drink. Think about what will happen?
Wang Tianyun said with a smile.
When Ma Xiao heard this, he was stunned and said, "You mean, the supervisor wants to promote me?"
"Naturally, otherwise there are so many sub-thousand households, why did I come to buy you a drink?"
Wang Tianyun said with a faint smile.
Wang Tianyun is the confidant of the supervisor. As soon as Ma Xiao heard it, he was undoubtedly worried. In terms of seniority, it was time to endure him.
After being a thousand households, you can't talk about the same as now.
"Thank you, Lord Wang. If you are really hit by Lord Wang, I will definitely ask Lord Wang to be happy."
Ma Xiao said hurriedly.
"You and my brother, don't you see each other when you say these words? However, I heard that there are a few good foreign girls in Yuchunlou. If you have time, let's have fun."
Wang Tianyun laughed.
Hearing this, Ma Xiao was even more sure that he would be promoted this time.
Ma Xiao was very excited all the way. In less than an hour, the carriage arrived at Tuoba Lingyun's villa outside the city.
This is Tuoba Lingyun's separate courtyard. Every year in midsummer, Tuoba Lingyun brings his family to come here to escape the summer heat.
So Ma Xiao is also very familiar with it. After all, it is not the first time to come.
Entering the courtyard and arriving at the flower hall, Wang Tianyun smiled and said, "The governor is in the backyard. I'll ask for a supervisor. You sit here for a while."
After saying that, Wang Tianyun left.
Ma Xiao is energetic when it comes to happy events, and he is nervous to walk around the flower hall.
At this moment, a servant served the tea and then turned around and left.
Ma Xiao was nervous and naturally a little thirsty. He picked up the tea cup and took a sip.
In less than a minute, Ma Xiao felt a little dizzy and his vision was blurred.
At this time, Wang Tianyun came out.
Ma Xiao knew that he must be poisoned and immediately shouted, "Brother Wang, this tea is poisonous."
"I know."
Wang Tianyun smiled faintly.
"You!!"
Ma Xiao suddenly broke out in a cold sweat and suddenly realized that it was a trap and turned around to leave.
"Brother Ma, where are you going?"
Wang Tianyun flashed his body and stood in front of Ma Xiao.
Ma Xiao said angrily, "Despicable villain, after the governor knows it, he will definitely not let you go."
"Well, this is the order of the governor. Brother Ma, you and I are both understanding people. The governor said that you can go on the road at ease, your children, wives, and your family. The governor's guild ensures that they are glorious and rich. If you want to resist, you know the consequences!"
Wang Tianyun shouted angrily.
Ma Xiao was suddenly shocked when he heard this.
Although this poison is fierce, it is not hopeless to break out with his cultivation.
However, if he leaves like this, his wife and children will be finished.
After so many years in the Metropolitan Inspection House, he naturally knew the viciousness of Tuoba Lingyun. Ma Xiao staggered under his feet and stepped back a few steps and sat on the chair.
"Brother Ma, our colleagues, don't force me to do it. This poison is called Gentle Hometown. As long as you don't resist, you will slowly lose consciousness for a while. After you die, we will say that you fought and died with the bandits. The court will not only care for you, but also your family will be safe. Don't do anything stupid. You know, in the Metropolitan Inspection House, who do we all work for?
Wang Tianyun said.
Ma Xiao was extremely desperate when he heard this.
Such toxicity, even if it rushes out, is probably useless.
It seems that there are really five ways to go.
"Despicable!"
Ma Xiao said angrily.
"Ha ha, Brother Ma, don't blame me either. It's your bad luck. If you don't want to behave and investigate the Baijia caravan in person, I'm afraid you don't have to die like this time. Stop struggling. I'll take you on your way."
Wang Tianyun smiled faintly and walked towards Ma Xiao.
At this time, a dark shadow suddenly fell into the sky.
"Boom!"
With a loud noise, the whole flower hall collapsed in an instant.
Wang Tianyun subconsciously protected his eyes, mouth and nose, but when he opened his eyes again, Ma Xiao had disappeared into the seat.
Immediately, Wang Tianyun was shocked and chased him out.
However, he only saw the figures in the sky flying farther and farther, and he couldn't catch up.
"Damn it."
Wang Tianyun cursed angrily and hurriedly ran out.
Liu Xia is running all the way with Ma Xiao at this moment. In a blink of an eye, she has flown out for seven or eight miles. I guess Wang Tianyun can't catch up with him anymore.
Then he found a safe place and put Ma Xiao down.
Ma Xiao is completely in a coma at this moment.
"Senior, can this poison be solved?"
Liu Xia hurriedly asked.
