Chapter 45 Killing the Prince

Ren Xingluo's eyes were full of turmoil for a moment. He had complicated emotions, but he just sneered and said, "It's nonsense. Who is he, how can he have feelings for me?"

Huang Liang thought about it for a while, "That's right. Maybe Mr. Qin doesn't know what Tangren means, and it's self-defeating."

Seeing Huang Liang's change of heart and not being fooled by the rumors outside, Ren Xingluo breathed a sigh of relief.Does Qin Sheng have love for him?He didn't notice it at all; because of his special status, the Qin and Ren families were against each other, and he very much didn't want people to pry into his secret love and hatred for Qin Sheng that no one knew.Even in front of Qin Sheng, he still hides these complex feelings, so as not to increase troubles and become entangled like in the previous world.

Huang Liang packed up his breakfast and left, Ren Xingluo locked the door and took out the knife hidden under the bed sheet.

This is the dagger he bought in Suhu a few years ago.

The businessman who sold the knife said that this knife is extremely sharp and cuts iron like mud.He also said that the young master came from a long way, so determined, he will surely come true.Ren Xingluo bought this knife because of his last sentence.

The Qin family first made their fortune in Suhu Lake, which is rich in products and known as the granary of the world.The head of the Qin family of the first generation used to be the prefect of Suhu Lake in the former court and made countless fortunes. His son borrowed his father's wealth to privately recruit soldiers and soldiers, and later became a tyrant in the troubled times.In Qin Xi's generation, the power of the Qin family reached its peak.This year, after Da Sima and General Qin Xi added Jiuxi, no one in the court could contend with the Qin family for a while, even the emperor had to make concessions for him.

It was also this year that Ren Xingluo was recovering from a serious illness again, and he pleaded with the crown prince again, and then he got permission to go to Huzhou for sex.No one knew about his departure except his elder brother Ren Xingzhi.Everyone thought he was recuperating from illness again, so it was no surprise that he couldn't even go to the New Year's Eve banquet.So in the early spring of this year, Ren Xingluo was carried by a carriage and bumped to Suhu Lake.

At this time, Qin Sheng returned from the northwest to Suhu's hometown to worship his ancestors, and Ren Xingluo traveled a hundred miles to Suhu just to meet Qin Sheng.However, things are unpredictable. On the second day after he arrived at Suhu, he got the news that Qin Sheng had already left for the northwest in the morning before he found out where Qin Sheng lived, so he didn't have to visit.

Like a moth chasing a light, Ren Xingluo bumped into the glazed lampshade. He was clearly right in front of his eyes, but he couldn't reach Qin Sheng's clothes no matter what.Desperate, he went to the Suhu knife shop alone, and the businessman picked out such a knife for him.

Ren Xingluo endured the illness and mourned, he looked for him everywhere, following the dust kicked up by his carriage.A few years later, Qin Sheng appeared so suddenly and without warning, dragging him into many conspiracies in the dark.

It should be that I owe him.Ren Xingluo muttered to himself while touching the blade.

The candlelight on the table affected the light and shadow on his face, illuminating him like an enchanting evil ghost.

Early the next morning, Ren Xingluo woke up after a long absence.He has been weak in recent years, and his work and rest are also very irregular. It is common for him to sleep until noon, and it is also common for him to nap until evening.So he got up so early for a walk, startling Huang Liang who was feeding the fish by the pond.

With a shake of his hand, Huang Liang threw a bowl of bait into the pond, causing a group of golden koi to scramble for it.He came to greet him in a hurry, "Your Highness, are you still awake, or just woke up?"

Naturally, Ren Xingluo had just woken up, had just washed up, and the drops of water on his face were still wet.At this moment, being blown by the cold wind in the autumn morning, I immediately shivered.He stared at the unconscious Huang Liang, and said, "What are you doing in a daze, why don't you let the dining room cook breakfast?"

Huang Liang was still chattering, "Ah, what are you doing out so early? Is there any big event today? Oh, I remembered, Your Highness has made an appointment with Master Qin..."

Huang Liang walked a few steps, but was stopped by Ren Xingluo again.

"It suddenly occurred to me that you probably didn't write what time you came?"

Huang Liang felt a little guilty: "No."

Ren Xingluo thought for a while, "It's okay, he can come anytime."

"But Mr. Qin may not be free. He was impeached. He must be busy negotiating with his staff. If he doesn't come, you won't be waiting in vain."

Ren Xingluo ignored him, he circled around the backyard again, stretched his muscles and bones, it can be said that he was fully prepared.Probably because of his experience in several worlds, when the murderous intent arose, his mind was so peaceful that it was terrifying.

Qin Sheng came earlier than he expected. Eunuch Huang Liang got Ren Xingluo's permission to lead Qin Sheng into his small courtyard.

Ren Xingluo's house is small, and the yard is also small. There are many tall cypress trees planted around the pond, which probably haven't been pruned for a long time. It looks cramped here.In such a cramped place, a pale and agile King Kang was raised.Qin Sheng stood in the corridor, looking at the water surface of the pond, as if he wanted to spy out the reflection of someone who had stood by the pond, he thought wildly, and chatted with Huang Liang again: "The koi in the pond is really fat. , can it survive in winter?"

Ren Xingluo came, he just heard this sentence, and replied: "Sometimes one or two will die, koi are still easy to raise, they are much more frost-resistant than me."

Qin Sheng turned to look at him. Ren Xingluo was walking in wooden clogs. The two of them were a foot away. His hair was loose and he didn't wear a crown. He had fair skin and red lips, and looked a little sick.He was wearing a thick fox fur cloak, which made him even more vulnerable.

Qin Sheng asked suspiciously, "Are you sick?"

"No," Ren Xingluo shook his head, "Go inside and sit down, it's cold outside."

After they entered the house, Ren Xingluo shut all the eunuchs and maids outside.

The room was burning with a stove, and it was warm at the moment.When Qin Sheng came, Ren Xingluo had just finished a bowl of hot porridge, and was feeling hot all over. He was roasted by the stove, so he took off his cloak and asked Qin Sheng, "Are you cold?"

Qin Sheng shook his head.

Ren Xingluo didn't have any accompanying maids in the room, so he moved two small stools by the wall with familiarity, and set up a small table in the middle, and put the tea set on it.In Qin Sheng's eyes, he thought, obviously King Kang often did this.

Ren Xingluo made tea and said, "I heard that you were impeached."

Qin Sheng said lightly:

"'Recklessly talking about the East Palace' is not a small crime. If I was dismissed from office, you shouldn't be happy, but you want me to drink tea instead?"

Ren Xingluo put down the teapot, and asked him with a playful smile, "Why do you think so? I have no enmity with you."

Ren Xingluo is from Yanjing, and Yanjing people have a bit of a hard word when they say the word "chou".Qin Sheng paid attention to his articulation, and also noticed the shape of his lips, which seemed to be pursed.He thought again, the men and women of the Ren family are always beautiful with straight eyebrows, but Ren Xingluo has a different style.It may also be because Kang Wang is a broken sleeve, so it feels a little different to him.

Kang Wang is a broken sleeve, and everyone knows it.This is an interesting story that came out of the palace two years ago. It is said that the queen saw a daughter of the Qin family for him and wanted to marry him as his concubine. King Kang justly refused, saying that he was a broken sleeve and would never marry a wife. concubine.Later, the emperor was furious because of this, and the matter caused ups and downs.

It was also the same year that Qin Sheng saw him. Ren Xingluo was galloping his horse without orders in front of the Hall of Supreme Harmony.That day when he watched Ren Xingluo ride by from a distance, Qin Sheng suddenly left a vague impression of his wanton and glamorous face.

"What's on my face?" Seeing Qin Sheng staring at him in a daze, Ren Xingluo was also stunned, "Qin Sheng?"

Qin Sheng smiled, and found an excuse at random: "I just wonder why your lips are so red? Men in the previous dynasty liked to put on makeup, and I thought you were too."

Only then did Ren Xingluo realize what he was looking at, and said, "You're right... I've been like this since I was a child. Huang Liang said it was because of my anger."

Qin Sheng continued what he said just now, and said, "When I was outside, I often heard that you had conflicts with the Qin family's nephew. I think you treat me the same way."

"You are different." Ren Xingluo answered without thinking, and once the words came out of his mouth, he felt that something was wrong.He answered these words a little too quickly and too bluntly, as if he knew Qin Sheng's character very well.

Qin Sheng felt a little funny, "How am I different from them?"

"Your family's discipline has not been very strict in recent years. Some of your clan brothers are very domineering, and you can't be so rude."

The last time Ren Xingluo had a conflict with the children of the Qin family was in Yecheng. Those people were drunk, teased him, and talked about it.He was also drunk at the time, so he was so angry that he ordered the eunuchs to beat up several people.Later, when the news spread, the Qin family was at a loss, and finally let it go.Another person privately laughed at how beautiful King Kang was with the broken sleeves, and the sons of the Qin family fell in love with him at first sight, but unexpectedly he was a man.Qin Sheng had heard about these things, and also heard that Concubine Cheng, the biological mother of King Kang, had a beautiful appearance. When Qin Sheng saw him later, he thought that it was true, no wonder his brothers were so crazy.

Qin Sheng sighed, "Look at killing Wei Jie and throwing fruit into the cart."

This is a cryptic compliment, which is really abrupt and weird after the children of the Qin family are domineering.Immediately, Ren Xingluo was upset. He thought that Qin Sheng was mocking him, so he said, "Master Qin, don't tease me."

Qin Sheng also realized that he had made a slip of the tongue, "I just remembered..." Thinking of the first time we met, how Ren Xingluo went crazy, how he left a vague impression, how he decided to run away in the alley when we met again. people pulled ashore.But he didn't say it after all, he stopped, paused, and swallowed the second half of the sentence that might displease Kang Wang.

The atmosphere froze for a while, and Ren Xingluo gradually scratched his head in his heart, like an embarrassed monkey.

At this time, the maid knocked on the door and said, "Your Highness, the Dahongpao you want is found." Ren Xingluo stood up quickly—he had never thanked this maid so much before, and inadvertently She was there when she was needed most.

Ren Xingluo took a deep breath, dumped the Dragon Well, and replaced it with the Dahongpao bestowed by the palace this year.

"For a change," he said, "what do you usually drink?"

"Longjing."

"Everyone loves to drink Longjing." Ren Xingluo was relieved, and as if the embarrassment just now had never happened before, he cheerfully invited Qin Sheng to drink his precious Dahongpao tea.

Qin Sheng took a sip from the teacup, frowned and said, "The taste is not right."

Ren Xingluo said, "Your tongue is really sensitive, maybe it's a bit moldy?"

Qin Cheng's brows furrowed deeper:

"Did you invite me here today just for tea?"

"if not?"

"I thought..." Qin Sheng stared at him, then said, "Forget it."

Qin Sheng seemed to have misunderstood his sudden closeness, Ren Xingluo was aware of this, and didn't want to reveal the truth.

Qin Sheng explained tactfully: "With our status, as friends, there may be difficulties in the future."

"You gave me a hand that night, don't I want to thank you?" Ren Xingluo's speech was thought out last night, it was reasonable and seamless, so his demeanor was extraordinarily sincere, and no one could fault it.

"As for being friends...you don't want to come to think of it, just let it be." After he finished speaking a lie, he added a sentence of truth, so that these words sounded true and sincere, so that Qin Sheng would not be suspicious.

Qin Sheng was a little surprised, probably because he didn't expect Kang Wang to actually say that he wanted to make friends with him.

Facing such a face, Qin Sheng couldn't say anything like calling him stupid, he just sighed and said, is this person really innocent?If so, if he wasn't born in the emperor's family, maybe...

He immediately blocked his unconstrained thoughts behind him, but his tone slowed down, "Nine out of ten things in the world are unsatisfactory. If you get too close to me, it's not good for you."

Qin Sheng's background determined that he and Ren Xingluo were not in the same camp.His father had an irreverent lust for power that either killed Ren or Qin, without exception.The crown prince has no heirs, Ren Xingluo is almost the second heir to the dynasty, and he is almost dead in his father's eyes.

What's more...the two of them can only survive at most.

He didn't need to say these words, Ren Xingluo would understand.But even so, Ren Xingluo still invited him to the palace at this moment when he was being impeached, for fear that others would not know that Qin and Ren had a close relationship.Qin Sheng didn't know whether he was naive or had other ideas.

Qin Sheng was thinking like this, and suddenly found that his eyes were blurred, as if something was covering his eyes.

"Are you OK?"

Ren Xingluo approached him, that cold face seemed to be far away, this distance suddenly brought back some memories of his past.But it was quickly replaced by nervous vigilance caused by physical discomfort, and he suddenly realized that there was something else in the tea.

He began to feel dizzy and forced himself to stand up with his hands on the table.Suddenly, a blade reflected light in front of his eyes, which suddenly aroused his anger: "You want to kill me?"

Qin Sheng's vision was sometimes clear and sometimes blurred, and he vaguely saw this gorgeous young man with fair skin and red lips slashing towards him with a knife.Qin Sheng dodged to the right subconsciously, but the tip of the knife still sliced ​​through his chest.Qin Sheng groaned in pain, quickly overturned the table and fled to the door.

Ren Xingluo's knife came close to his back again, Qin Sheng subconsciously turned sideways and kicked the comer in the ribs.He didn't know if he had been kicked, Qin Sheng didn't even see clearly, he had already opened the door and rushed outside.He thought that the outside of the house must be full of dangers, full of guards and soldiers, but unexpectedly the outside of the house was blank, and there was no one there.He whistled and escaped like a released eagle.

The power that erupts when a person is about to die is terrifying. Ren Xingluo was kicked in the ribs by Qin Sheng's relentless kick, and he felt a sharp pain, almost comparable to the pain he suffered when he fell from the twelfth floor in the past. .He dropped his knife, and he didn't have time to pick it up. He heard the commotion outside, but he couldn't make a sound.Ren Xingluo fell to the ground, curled up like a wounded cat, panting.

While hating his own weak and weak skin, he thought to himself that it would be a waste of money to steal the chicken, it's over now!
