Chapter 736

When the woman had no way to ask for help, she naturally agreed in every way. Just when Xia Chunqiu and Xu Lang were still complacent, the servants outside the door came in and told them that they were from the east palace.

In a daze, Xia Chunqiu put down his wine cup and looked at Xu Lang in doubt, but he was also confused. "Did the people in the East Palace ever say what they came here for?"

"They said that his highness asked them to give gifts, and they carried a huge box. Now they are waiting at the door."

Gifts? Xia Chunqiu frowned. Since the last meeting with the prince at his residence in the suburbs late at night, they have nothing to do with each other. When they come here tonight, they say they want to give her a gift? Why?

"Invite them in." Although Xia Chunqiu is a little uneasy, people have already arrived at the door. There is no reason why they are not allowed to come in.

After a while, the servants led the people from the east palace to the front hall. They put down the wooden box they were carrying and saluted Xia Chunqiu and Xu Lang respectfully.

"To see the royal highness of the princess, the servant gave a royal gift to his royal highness under the royal highness of Prince Edward. His royal highness also said that this is the last time, and asked the princess himself to weigh it later."

Xia Chunqiu frowned and looked at the two slaves. They seemed to be sincere, but their voice was not ambiguous. Xia Chunqiu didn't understand the meaning of their words, so they got up and left.

"This gift will be left to the eldest princess. If the eldest princess doesn't have any words to bring a prince, then the slaves will leave." After that, they left happily.

After they left, Xia Chunqiu and Xu Lang stood in front of the big box and looked at it for a long time, but they couldn't guess what the gift would be inside. After a while, Xia Chunqiu was about to open the box, but Xu Lang stopped him. Listening to the tone of the two slaves, it must not be a good thing.

Xu Lang turns around and comes out with his personal sword. The sharp blade is shining in the moonlight. Xu Lang uses his sword to lift the big lock on the wooden box, and then lifts the lid of the wooden box. But for a long time, nothing happens inside.

Xia Chunqiu and Xu Lang look at each other and step forward cautiously. The lid of such a large wooden box is lifted, but they have no reaction. They are very curious about what is inside.

When they got close to the box and saw the contents, Xia Chunqiu screamed, "ah..." she shivered and hid behind Xu Lang, but Xu Lang was not much better, and he was scared.

There was a man in the wooden box, a woman in untidy clothes. The light yarn on her body could not cover her beautiful figure, but there was no temperature. Now her whole quilt was in the big wooden box, twisted and deformed. Her face is very white, no trace of blood, eyes are not willing to open, it seems that also with unbelievable.

Xu Lang held Xia Chunqiu in his arms and patted her on the back to comfort her. But this time, she was really frightened. It took her a long time to stabilize her mood, but her body was still shaking slightly. The original good atmosphere and good mood disappeared in this instant.

After a long time, Xia Chunqiu raised her head from Xu Lang's arms. Her slender fingers tightly pulled Xu Lang's skirt. She asked Xu Lang in a trembling voice: "who is that? Who is it? "

Xu Lang was also frightened by the situation just now. When he heard Xia Chunqiu's inquiry, he protected her behind him and bravely went forward to check.

Xu Lang stared at the woman in the wooden box for a long time. Although her face was distorted, Xu Lang recognized her. When she came to Xufu for help that day, it was raining heavily. All her clothes were wet and could not cover up his beautiful figure. Xu Lang was salivating at her then, and Xia Chunqiu naturally saw his intention at that time, That's why he sent her to the palace under such an excuse. Xu Lang only felt sorry at that time, but now he has no room to refute. After all, his ambition is more than that.

Unexpectedly, when I saw her again, it was already a cold corpse.

At this time, Xia Chunqiu's mood is a little more stable. She stares at the woman in the wooden box. The woman's clothes are not neat, and there are deep or shallow red marks from her neck to her white chest. How can Xia Chunqiu and Xu Lang not know what the red mark is? It seems that she has just experienced abnormal love.

With that little red mark, there is the clear blue and purple on the neck. The clear mark of five fingers is particularly obvious on the white neck. Xia Chunqiu can't bear to see that she was strangled alive after seeing it.

Xia Chunqiu's heart was cold when he thought of the words that the slave of the east palace had just said when he left. Now, he has taken so much trouble to send people to Xu's house, which shows that he already knows that this woman is sent by her. No matter how he knows, he is afraid that he will be more difficult to deal with. Now he has helped her eradicate Shi Xia Tingxuan, He had no worries, and he didn't participate in the whole process. If he caught it in his hands, he was afraid that it would eventually cause his fear and attack her.

"We... What are we going to do next?" Xia Chunqiu pulls Xu Lang's hand and turns white nervously. She stares at Xu Lang's eyes.

Xu Lang pondered for a long time, but still did not know what to do. Now, if Xia Han Yang had a fear of them, and now even the only eye liner was gone, they would be more and more uncontrolled by them. In the end, if Xia Xuanyang felt they had no value, they would not hesitate to remove them. And now there are still Xia Weiwei and the queen in the palace. They have no way to grasp the real power. If Xia xuanyang does it, they will have no room to turn around. After a while, Xu Lang closed the wooden box heavily with his sword, and called in the servants outside the door, asking them to carry people to the field for burial. After all, it's not a matter to stay here“ Don't be afraid. Let's see what happens to the prince first, and then we'll make plans. " Xu Lang tried his best to comfort Xia Chunqiu gently. Xia Chunqiu stayed in his arms for a long time and then slightly stabilized his mood. It seems that the situation is more and more serious now. They have to find a way to speed up the progress. The charm of the supreme position is too great Qingxin hall. At night, after Xia Weiwei settled down with Xia Tingxuan, she sat in a daze in the pavilion in the courtyard alone. Since she had talked about Xia Tingxuan's physical condition with doctor Qin last time, she was relieved. A servant girl who was waiting on Xia xuanyang said that she accidentally spilled the medicine on Xia Tingxuan's hand when she was feeding him the medicine today, Xia Tingxuan's hand was almost subconsciously shaken, and then even he was stunned, as if he couldn't believe it. Then he stared at his hand for a long time, and the smile on his lips deepened a little bit. Xia Weiwei is both happy and worried. What she is happy about is that if such a small matter can make Xia Tingxuan's heart full of confidence in life again, it will be very helpful for his recovery in the future. But at the same time, she is also worried that if Xia xuanyang and Xia Chunqiu know about it, they will send someone to attack Xia Tingxuan again. Now she is planning that thing, I'm afraid that if I don't pay enough attention, I will not protect Xia Tingxuan well.
