Chapter 235 A Gift for Big Brother
Xiao Jingyi waited for a long time in Wu'an Palace, but he never saw Xiao Jinghan. He couldn't help but get anxious, pacing around the palace and looking at the door frequently.
Finally, he couldn't hold back his inner anxiety anymore, so he called a spy and asked anxiously, "Where did Xiao Jinghan go after entering the city? Why hasn't he arrived at the palace yet?"
The spy bowed and replied: "Marshal, according to what I have learned, after Xiao Jinghan entered the city, he first took the princess to taste all kinds of snacks and delicacies in the city. Afterwards, the two of them went to the funeral shop and bought a coffin!"
Xiao Jingyi frowned when he heard this, thinking to himself: Buying a coffin? Could it be that he wants to give it to me? Is there some conspiracy? No! I have to send more people to keep an eye on him and see what he is up to!
Thinking of this, Xiao Jingyi made a prompt decision and ordered the spy: "Send more people over immediately and keep a close eye on Xiao Jinghan's every move! If there is any abnormal situation, report it to the king immediately!"
The spy took the order and quickly dispatched more people to follow Xiao Jinghan. Xiao Jingyi remained in the Wu'an Palace, anxiously waiting for further news. His doubts grew deeper and deeper, wondering what Xiao Jinghan's move meant...
After Xiao Jinghan led Luo Lingyue to meet up with the previous team in the city, they strolled for a long time in the most prosperous and bustling streets of Nanyi.
Finally, we moved to Nanyi's premier restaurant for lunch.
After lunch, they went to a teahouse to listen to the storyteller. During the meal, Xiao Jinghan even sent Wen Gui to buy a pitch-black mynah bird and a pure white puppy.
When Xiao Jingyi heard what the spy reported, he couldn't help but sneer: "Humph, it seems that Xiao Jinghan is just a playboy who doesn't do his job properly! I actually overestimated him before!"
As the sun set, the sunset glowed brilliantly, tinging the entire world with a golden glow. At dusk, Xiao Jinghan finally led the guards to the Wu'an Palace.
Xiao Jinghan and Luo Lingyue stood shoulder to shoulder in front of the magnificent gate of the Wu'an Palace. Seeing this, Wenfu hurriedly trotted forward and shouted to the palace guards: "Wu'an Prince Xiao Jinghan comes to pay his respects to Marshal Xiao Jingyi!"
After hearing this, the guard quickly entered the mansion to report. After a while, a burly man slowly walked out. He looked completely different from Xiao Jinghan, and it could even be said that there was no similarity between him and Xiao Jinghan.
Xiao Jingyi was born with thick eyebrows and big eyes. His broad face, plump cheeks, and a strong chin revealed a sense of majesty. His nose was straight, like a mountain peak. His lips were thick and well-defined, giving people a sense of firmness and courage. Coupled with his dark and rough skin, he looked like a general who had been through many battles and experienced the baptism of war.
In contrast, Xiao Jinghan is more like his mother, and his appearance is absolutely beautiful, even more outstanding than many women! His facial features are delicate and soft, and his eyebrows reveal a unique charm that makes people fall in love with him.
When Xiao Jinghan saw Xiao Jingyi, his eyes flashed with ecstasy, and his steps accelerated involuntarily, rushing towards the other party like a whirlwind. He opened his arms and hugged Xiao Jingyi tightly without hesitation, as if he was afraid of losing this precious moment.
Xiao Jinghan's tears flowed out of his eyes like a flood, sliding down his cheeks. His voice trembled, filled with endless sadness and longing: "Brother! I miss you so much! These years, I was held hostage in the capital by Emperor Wen, and every day was very difficult. I was always looking forward to you coming to save me and take me out of the sea of suffering."
The moment Xiao Jingyi was hugged by Xiao Jinghan, his body suddenly froze, as if time had frozen. The scene from deep in his memory came to his mind - when the princess gave birth to Xiao Jinghan, Xiao Qichen took him to see the tiny, tender and cute baby for the first time. At that time, Xiao Qichen said to him gently and firmly: "Jingyi, this is your brother Jinghan, you must protect him well in the future!"
These memories came flooding back like a tide, causing Xiao Jingyi to feel a complex emotion. He felt the weight of responsibility and realized the inseparable bond between him and Xiao Jinghan.
However, facing Xiao Jinghan's grief and desire at this moment, he felt powerless and helpless. At that time, he really liked Xiao Jinghan, but when Xiao Jinghan was five years old. The princess died in the palace, and Emperor Wen's people came to him.
He knew very well that only by staying alive would he have the chance to gain greater power, so he took the spear that Xiao Qichen gave him without hesitation and stabbed it fiercely into Xiao Qichen's back!
At that moment, time seemed to freeze. The entire battlefield was filled with a strong bloody smell, and all he could see was a blood-red scene.
He personally killed his adoptive father, who was as kind to him as a father! Not only did he raise him, he also taught him how to read and write, martial arts, and the ways of dealing with people. However, at this moment, he betrayed this deep kindness and ended his adoptive father's life with the weapon given by his adoptive father.
At this moment, endless regret and self-blame surged in his heart, but he knew that he could not turn back. In this cruel world, power and survival are the only rules. He must continue to move forward, even if he carries a heavy sense of guilt, and continue to fight for his goal.
Xiao Jingyi came back to his senses, and he gently patted Xiao Jinghan on the back. He said softly, "Little brother! It's good to be back! Big brother will definitely protect you!"
Xiao Jinghan's face was filled with an innocent smile, as pure and cute as a child. He raised his hand and waved to the guards behind him, signaling them to come forward.
The guards slowly came over carrying a coffin, which looked extremely heavy, as if it contained something important. Xiao Jingyi's face instantly became solemn, and he looked at Xiao Jinghan with some suspicion, with an ominous premonition in his heart.
"What is this...?" Xiao Jingyi frowned, with a hint of doubt and vigilance in his voice.
Xiao Jinghan pulled his arm and said proudly, "Brother, this is a gift from me to you! Did you know that Xiao Xiao was a chess piece used by Emperor Wen to attack you? But it doesn't matter, I have helped you get rid of her! And I used poison to kill her! Hehe, now she is dead. I will tell Emperor Wen that she died of illness, so that no one will suspect us!"
After hearing this, Xiao Jingyi was shocked. He widened his eyes and looked at Xiao Jinghan in disbelief.
He never thought that Xiao Jinghan would help him get rid of Xiao Xiao, the trouble. He was a little suspicious of Xiao Jinghan's intentions, but he saw Xiao Jinghan's clear eyes and cared about him. He did all this just to protect his elder brother.
