After being dressed as a demon concubine, she was pregnant with the new emperor's cub

Chapter 65

Wei Lin didn't know how he had offended Sheng Qing again, and was too scared to speak by Wei Lin's "shut up", but he was thinking about Sheng Qing's physical discomfort, and wanted to ask Sheng Qing about his health .

Just as he was struggling in his heart, he looked up again and found that Sheng Qing had left.

After Sheng Qing walked away from Wei Lin, he ran into Xiao Jiu who didn't know what he was doing.

"Master, come here, I have something to tell you." Xiao Jiu grabbed Sheng Qing's clothes and said mysteriously.

Seeing this, Sheng Qing couldn't help but wonder why Xiao Jiu, a child who didn't know anything, was suddenly so cautious.

"What's the matter? Xiao Jiu." Sheng Qing held Xiao Jiu's little hand and asked in confusion.

But Xiao Jiu didn't say it directly, but looked around, and then pulled Sheng Qing into the room.

After entering the house and closing the doors and windows, Xiao Jiu said to Sheng Qing: "Master, I just noticed that someone is watching us from outside."

Speaking of this, Xiao Jiu's face was tense and very serious. He has been studying as a teacher these days, and he can also feel that his master's identity is extraordinary, and it is by no means as simple as an ordinary doctor.

Especially since he picked up the man, the master seemed to be very worried about the man. When he picked up the man, he knew that the man's identity was unusual from the man's clothes.

Judging by Master's appearance, it was obvious that he knew that man, and these days, Uncle Bai was much busier than usual, and was often ordered by Master to do some mysterious things.

Xiao Jiu is a precocious child. Through these, he can clearly feel that not only is Master's status unusual, but it is even very possible that Master is planning to make a big move.

So in the past few days, he tried his best not to cause trouble for Master, and he was much more cautious than usual in doing things.

It was also because of his carefulness that he discovered that they seemed to be being secretly targeted here, so he hurried to tell Sheng Qing about it.

After Sheng Qing heard Xiao Jiu's words, his expression was slightly surprised. He didn't expect Xiao Jiu to find other dead soldiers who were guarding secretly.

This had to make Sheng Qing's sensitivity to Xiao Jiu admirable.

As for Xiao Jiu, he really wanted to take him in as a cheap apprentice, and Xiao Jiu is a clever child who can keep secrets, so he didn't intend to hide some things from Xiao Jiu.

Sheng Qing looked at Xiao Jiu and said with a smile, "Don't be afraid, they are all from our own family, just like your Uncle Bai, I came here to protect us."

"Come out."

Following Sheng Qing's order, several men in similar clothes appeared from various dark corners under Xiao Jiu's surprised eyes.

"Your Highness, my subordinates!" Several people said respectfully after seeing Sheng Qing.

Where did Xiao Jiu see this kind of battle, even the landlord in their village didn't have this kind of response, and did he hear it wrong?

Your Highness?

Although Xiao Jiu is not very old, he also knows the meaning of the word "His Royal Highness", so his master is actually a prince.

Xiao Jiu froze for a few seconds, knowing that Master was not an ordinary person, but he didn't expect it to be so unusual.

Seeing Xiao Jiu's unbelievable appearance, Sheng Qing smiled gently and said, "It doesn't matter if I am some highness or not, since I have passed the ceremony before, I will always be your master."

To be honest, Sheng Qing has no affection for the Nanyue royal family. In his heart, he is far inferior to this young apprentice who has only been with him for nearly half a month.

Xiao Jiu's eyes sparkled when he heard Sheng Qing's words, yes, the person in front of him was his respected master, as for the other identities of the master, he was not thinking about it.

After figuring this out, Xiao Jiu went back to getting along with Sheng Qing as usual, doing what she wanted to do.

And the other dead men who were called out by Sheng Qing quietly returned to the original hiding place under the signal of Sheng Qing's eyes.

"Xiao Jiu, you just stay in this clinic these days and don't go anywhere." Sheng Qing couldn't help reminding Xiao Jiu that now all forces are starting to inquire about Wei Lin's traces and the peace talks between Nanyue and Jingyang Village. This small Baishui Town is concentrated, so the risk here is still very high, and he doesn't want to bring danger to Xiaojiu because of himself.

Fortunately, Xiao Jiu is an obedient child, and Sheng Qing immediately responded 'yes' after saying this.

Then Sheng Qing suddenly found something, with a helpless expression on his face, he said: "Xiao Jiu, if you are free, you can spend more time with the man you picked up, and take care of him for the teacher. He is allowed to run around, let alone go out, understand?"

Because of what happened just now, Sheng Qing doesn't really want to pay attention to Wei Lin these days, and he may have to leave the hospital for a few days, but he doesn't feel at ease if he doesn't stare at Wei Lin. It happens that Xiao Jiu has nothing to do every day, so it's better to let him go up.

After hearing Wei Lin's words, Xiao Jiu nodded, he will definitely take good care of that man for Master!

"So cute." Sheng Qing rubbed Xiao Jiu's head appreciatively.

Since Sheng Qing dismissed the people sent by Zhou Xin, Zhou Xin sent people over several times one after another, but Sheng Qing had to reject them with the same reason.

Sheng Qing didn't agree until he heard that the fifth prince Xiao Rui had arrived and asked Sheng Qing to meet him at Zhou Xin's mansion.

Sheng Qing changed into a slightly more luxurious robe than he usually wears. The clothes are looser, so they can well hide Sheng Qing's protruding belly.

"Let's go." After getting dressed, Sheng Qing said unhurriedly.

"Yes." The two of Sheng Qing walked to the door, and after Bai Jin helped Sheng Qing onto the carriage, he followed the other two guards on horseback to protect the sides of the carriage Sheng Qing was riding in.

After all, Baishui Town is just a town, not a big place, so the group of them arrived at Zhou Xin's mansion soon.

Baishui Town is a border town, and the biggest official in this kind of place is usually the local city guard general.

This point, when Sheng Qing saw the majestic lintel of Zhou Mansion, he could get a glimpse of it.

It is no exaggeration to say that Zhou Xin's mansion is almost half the size of the palace, and the whole mansion occupies more than half of the East Square of Baishui Town.

Although Baishui Town is just a town, and it is still a border town, but because the town has the most important ferry between South Vietnam and Wei, the whole town is very rich.

Although this place is rich, but Zhou Xin can build his mansion like a palace, if there is nothing tricky in it, Sheng Qing doesn't believe it at all.

But the purpose of his trip is not to investigate corrupt officials, and he doesn't really want to take care of these things for the time being.

Sheng Qing led Bai Jin and a few guards to the magnificent gate of the Zhou Mansion.

But they were immediately stopped by the guards at the door. Bai Jin explained that Sheng Qing was the fourth prince, and they came here at the invitation of the fifth prince and Zhou Xin.

But the man who seemed to be the leader of the guards directly said bluntly: "We have never heard of any other four princes in Nanyue, and our general has not invited anyone to come, so hurry up!"

Seeing that the attitude of those guards was so bad, Bai Jin frowned, and was stopped by Sheng Qing calmly when he was about to step forward. Sheng Qing pulled a very nice smile on his thick and colorful face. Seeing this, he was stunned for a few seconds.

Sheng Qing smiled and said: "Since there is no fourth prince in Nanyue, let's go!"

"My hall will go back to Jiangdu and ask His Majesty if there is any fourth prince in Nanyue!"

Still want to show him off?Don't you guys like to make things happen?Then he will simply let them make a big deal!

Hearing that Sheng Qing was going back to Jiangdu to look for the emperor, the people hiding in the dark couldn't stand anymore.

Just as Sheng Qing was about to leave here, a middle-aged man who looked like a butler immediately went out and called Sheng Qing: "Your Highness, stay!"

The middle-aged housekeeper was a bit bloated, so he had a bit of trouble running, and he was already out of breath when he ran to Sheng Qing's side.

"His Royal Highness stay here." The housekeeper panted and said beside Sheng Qing.

"This old slave sees His Highness the Fourth Highness."

"Fourth Highness, these boys don't know Mount Tai, Your Highness must not be as knowledgeable as them."

The butler first apologized to Sheng Qing, and then feignedly reprimanded the guards behind him: "You foolish bastards, the Fourth Highness didn't report you when you came down, and you dared to drive the Fourth Highness away after eating a leopard! Why don't you hurry up and tell me Fourth Highness apologizes!"

As soon as the butler finished speaking, the rest of the guards knelt down one after another, "Please forgive me, Your Highness!"

Only the person who said to drive Sheng Qing away at the beginning remained standing.

The guard had an indignant look on his face, obviously the housekeeper told them to do this. The housekeeper asked them to drive away all those who claimed to be princes, and said that these people were all liars in the town.

And they really didn't know when Nanyue had an additional Fourth Highness. If he knew that the person in front of him was the real prince, how could he drive him away?

Sheng Qing's eyes fell on the guard who was still standing, and the steward followed Sheng Qing's gaze to see the outstanding man, he caught his breath, and said sharply: "Lu Wu, why don't you hurry up and apologize to the Fourth Highness!"

This Lu Wu has only one nerve in his head. He just asked them to give the Fourth Highness a little bit of power according to the general's order, but now that the Fourth Highness is going to make trouble with His Majesty, he still doesn't know what is good or bad here.

His Majesty hates others to doubt the identity of the Fourth Highness. If the Fourth Highness really reports this matter to His Majesty with embellishments, they will all be finished!

The butler was really going to be pissed off.

Before Lu Wu could take any action, Sheng Qing said, "It's okay, this is their duty."

The housekeeper was amazed at Sheng Qing's sudden generosity. The Fourth Highness was assuming that he was about to make trouble with His Majesty just now, how could he suddenly be so understanding again.

But the butler didn't think much about it, he just begged Sheng Qing not to make trouble.

Sheng Qing and his party walked towards the mansion under the guidance of the butler, and they even glanced sideways at Lu Wu as they passed by.

Lu Wu was taken aback by Sheng Qing's look. This His Highness is not trying to take revenge, is he?

But when he looked up, he found that Sheng Qing's eyes were unusually gentle, and when he was about to take a closer look, Sheng Qing had already walked away.

Sheng Qing followed the housekeeper all the way to the front hall, and just before he entered the door, he saw a handsome young man in military uniform walking over, and immediately cupped his hands and said, "Fourth brother."

Seeing the young man, Sheng Qing also nodded slightly.

The fifth prince, Xiao Rui, had been regarded by Xiao Zhao as a thorn in his flesh before he was recognized, but Sheng Qing felt that Xiao Rui was many times stronger than Xiao Zhao in terms of talent.

After all, Xiao Rui has real combat achievements and is the dream lover of many noble girls in Jiangdu. It is a pity that Xiao Rui's mother was only a singer. Zhao pressed his head.

On the other hand, Zhou Xin came late under the guidance of the housekeeper.

"Chen, Zhou Xin, I have seen the two Highnesses."

Zhou Xin, who was also wearing armor, came out and saluted Sheng Qing and the others. Sheng Qing looked down at Zhou Xin, who was only forty. Sheng Qing said in a clear voice, "General Zhou, please get up."

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Zhou Xin got up and continued: "The guards at home ran into His Highness ignorantly. I am here to apologize to Your Highness. I will definitely punish them!"

"Come here, beat the guards who rushed into the Fourth Highness just now with forty army sticks!"

As soon as Zhou Xin finished speaking, several soldiers went to the door and arrested several guards.

Seeing Zhou Xin throwing the blame here, Sheng Qing sneered in his heart.

But after the guards were pulled in, Sheng Qing frowned and spoke for the guards: "Forget it, it's nothing, and those who don't know are innocent."

But when Zhou Xin heard Sheng Qing's words, he disapproved and said: "Your Highness, I know that you are kind, but these slaves with winking must be dealt with properly!"

Hearing Zhou Xin's words, the guard couldn't believe it at all. They obviously followed the general's orders, so why is it all their fault now?

"Don't do anything yet!" He just heard the housekeeper say that Sheng Qing intentionally made a noise to His Majesty about being rejected by him. As soon as he heard it, he felt that His Highness the Fourth Highness is not easy to mess with, so Sheng Qing said it's fine and doesn't care, Zhou Xin He didn't believe it at all, so he hurriedly punished the guards to stabilize Sheng Qing.

It's just a few guards, as long as Sheng Qing can't keep making trouble, he doesn't care if he is killed.

The soldiers were about to make a move when they heard Sheng Qing say, "As guards, it's not right for them to drive away the guests indiscriminately, but ordinary people with forty army sticks may lose their lives. Monthly money to punish their dereliction of duty."

"General Zhou, what do you think?" Sheng Qing looked at Zhou Xin inquiringly.

Zhou Xin didn't react at first, but the owner of the incident didn't care anymore, and he didn't need to hold on to it. He sternly said to the guards: "Hurry up and thank Your Highness!"

"My subordinate thanked Your Highness." Several guards thanked Sheng Qing one after another, and even the original Lu Wu knelt down.

They didn't expect that in the end, it was the Fourth Highness who was rejected by them who rescued them. Several people couldn't help but feel grateful when they looked at Sheng Qing.

Xiao Rui watched all this calmly from the side, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart that his fourth brother is really good at buying people's hearts.

After this episode, Sheng Qing, Xiao Rui and Zhou Xin got together and started to discuss the peace with Jingyang Village.

Because of the envoy to Wei State, both sides of Jingyangzhai in Nanyue were in dire straits, so now this unstable alliance has completely collapsed.

Jingyang Village even sent troops to South Vietnam directly because the envoys of South Vietnam didn't care about their life and death at that time. Several towns on the border of South Vietnam often received surprise attacks from Jingyang Village recently.

The Nanyue people were not good at military, so they had no intention of getting entangled with Jingyang Village, so they sent the prince to negotiate a truce with Jingyang Village.

The three of them discussed together for a long time, and finally decided to send a letter of reconciliation to Jingyang Village, and discuss the matter of reconciliation two days later.

Because of the peace negotiation, they still needed to prepare a lot of things together in the early stage, so Sheng Qing and Xiao Rui stayed in the Zhou Mansion.

Sheng Qing and Xiao Rui lived in the same courtyard, so they walked together for a while.

On the way, Sheng Qing said casually, "Fifth Brother's body is really heroic, like a young general."

Xiao Rui didn't seem to expect Sheng Qing to say that, and was slightly taken aback, after all, his fourth brother didn't seem to like Nanyue very much after he came to Nanyue.

Sheng Qing ignored Xiao Rui's stunned expression and continued: "Fifth brother really want to negotiate a peace like this?"

Hearing Sheng Qing's words, Xiao Rui stopped in his tracks, raised his head and looked at Sheng Qing inquiringly, but Sheng Qing didn't look at him, but played with the jade pendant on his waist, as if what he just said was just casually.

"Otherwise? What does fourth brother think?" Xiao Rui looked at Sheng Qing's half-delicate side face and asked.

"Destroy Jingyang Village."

Xiao Rui's heart was shocked by Sheng Qing's light words, and then Sheng Qing turned around, met his eyes, and slightly raised the corners of his lips: "Let's go together."

After finishing speaking, Sheng Qing took Bai Jin and the others away leisurely.

Xiao Rui stared at Sheng Qing's back. After a long time, he suddenly laughed. He, the fourth brother, is a bit interesting.

At this moment, a stone hit him hard on the back.

Xiao Rui was in pain, turned around and looked around, but found nothing. He looked around cautiously. If he could attack him and let him not find it, this person's skill must be unfathomable.

Unexpectedly, there are such powerful people in Zhoufu!

And when Sheng Qing returned to his yard, just as he was about to enter the house to rest, he heard Bai Jin behind him looking at the dense flowers beside him and saying, "Who is it!"

Sheng Qing also turned back to look at the flower bush, with a puzzled expression on his face. Something happened to Zhou Xin this week, so he shouldn't be a demon anymore?

Then under Sheng Qing's suspicious eyes, Wei Lin stood up from behind the flowers, with petals and a few leaves still on her head.

Seeing Wei Lin with an innocent face, Sheng Qing only felt his temples twitch.

But it wasn't over yet, another little boy stood up next to Wei Lin, and called out "Master" timidly.
