Report to your majesty, the prince is courting death again

Xu An understood what Xiao Lan'er meant.

Now only he and the conspirator knew the truth about the haunting, while the people of Kyoto and the students of the Imperial College did not know the truth. Now they may not make any move for the time being based on their trust in him.

But how long can such trust last? If Xiao Yuanxuan and the old Taoist priest do something more ruthless, such as killing people and setting fires, will the people of Kyoto still believe it?

As long as they fall into panic, let alone public opinion, the people can demolish the Duke's Mansion with a single impact.

Water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it, that's the truth.

"Dad Xu, can I borrow some of your soldiers and horses for fun?"

Xu An looked at Xu Xiao, who was sitting in the distance eating steamed buns, and said with a smile.

"How many? Let's make it clear that the Black Armored Army just moved yesterday, and now they can't move."

Xu Xiao looked up at Xu An and said, "Yesterday's move was reasonable. If we move the Black Armored Army again now, those old bastards hiding in the dark may not be able to bear it."

"Also, aren't those guys in the Heavenly Prison protected by you? Why don't you use a group of great masters?"

Xu An shook his head and said, "They only need to move once. My goal is to deter. The enemy will naturally be afraid when they know that I have such a powerful force in my hands."

"But if they move more, they will be more exposed, and the enemy will have the opportunity to find a way to target them."

"Of course, these are not all the key points. The key point is why use a butcher knife to kill a chicken?"

"If I ask them to do something as trivial as this, how can I expect them to truly submit to me in the future?"

Xu Xiao thought about it and nodded, "That's right. These guys are really overqualified to deal with these small fry."

"So, just give me two hundred palace soldiers."

Xu An raised two fingers and looked at Xu Xiao and said, "Two hundred palace soldiers, all deployed around Qinyin Xiaozhu, do it blatantly for Xiao Yuanxuan to see."

"I want to use these people to keep an eye on him first."

"Otherwise, if he builds momentum again, people may die."

Xu Xiao curled his lips and said, "Why bother so much? Just go to the door directly."

Xu An: "..."

He patted his forehead and was speechless.

Dad, are you sure you didn't do it on purpose? Why do I feel that you are sometimes as cunning as a fox, and sometimes just a reckless Zhang Fei?

Xiao Yuanxuan is a prince of Daqian anyway. Sending troops to surround a prince, how can those people sit still? There will definitely be a treason charge that will bite us to death!

Besides, we don't know if that old Taoist priest with a big nose is in Qinyin Cottage.

If he is, that's easy to say.

If he is not, that's hard to say.

Xu An didn't bother to pay attention to Xu Xiao, and looked at Xiao Yuanlang: "Xiao Yuanlang, send a message to your brother-in-law, and ask the City Defense Department to strengthen patrols tonight. Anyone who goes out on the street after the curfew will be arrested!"

Qi Qing, the deputy commander of the City Defense Department, is the son of the Duke of Yiguo.

And Qi Yuan, the eldest daughter of the Duke of Yiguo, is engaged to Xiao Yuanlang.

As long as Qi Yuan comes of age, the two will get married.

Xiao Yuanlang's face became solemn. Xu An said it easily, but he knew how dangerous the current situation was.

If he had known this earlier, he would never let Xiao Yuanxuan take the damn Taoist priest away... Xiao Yuanlang secretly regretted it and felt that he was half responsible for Xu An's predicament today.

He knew Xiao Lan'er's concerns. If Xiao Yuanxuan went to ask for the person in person and didn't give him, it might intensify the conflict between him and Xiao Yuanxuan in advance.

Of course, Xu An had already accomplished his great cause at that time, and the old Taoist priest was already a dispensable little person.

But who knew he could bite back like this!

"Don't worry, I will go to find him in person." Xiao Yuanlang said solemnly.

At this time, the housekeeper walked in quickly from outside and whispered a few words in Xu Xiao's ear.

Xu Xiao frowned slightly and looked up at Xu An: "Boy, I have something to tell you. There is news from the Jingbian Marquis Mansion that An Jiancheng is about to die!"

"What?!"

Hearing this, everyone's face changed.

Xu An jumped up instantly: "Uncle Fu, bring my horse here, hurry up."

Originally, he wanted to find a way to get rid of his sister and get in touch with a few beauties, but now he didn't have the mood to move forward at all, so he turned around and walked out quickly.

In order to protect him, An Jiancheng and Cheng Hu took Que Zhenxiong's stick at Shanshui Villa.

They were seriously injured at the time, but they still endured until the reinforcements arrived.

Xu An asked about their injuries at the time, and they both said that they only broke a few ribs and would not die.

Damn, if they can't die, why are you giving me a critical illness notice now? What's going on?

Did these two guys lie?

Xu An was immediately anxious. Although they usually like to fight and sabotage each other, they are brothers who have shared life and death! How could he not be anxious?"Qingyi, do you still have the ointment given by the emperor? Bring it to me quickly, Qingyi..."

Xu An walked to the front yard while shouting.

"Master, Qingyi is still in the county government office and hasn't come back yet."

Butler Xu Fu said quickly: "The ointment given by His Majesty is already in the Jingbian Marquis Mansion, so there is no need to distribute it in our mansion."

Xu An then remembered that Qingyi had moved to the county government office with him and was cultivating penicillin bacteria in the backyard of the county government office.

He was caught by Xu Xiao last night and had no time to call Qingyi back.

"Go, send someone to pick up Qingyi, and bring all the bacteria she cultivated back to me, the young master."

Xu An instructed the butler and walked out of the car quickly.

"Xu An, get in my car!"

Xiao Yuanlang grabbed Xu An's shoulders and said: "You are not in good condition now. It's too dangerous to ride a horse."

"Okay, hurry up."

Xu An did not refuse and jumped into Xiao Yuanlang's carriage.

After Xiao Yuanlang, Qin Wenjian and Wuxie got on the carriage, the carriage quickly drove to the Marquis of Jingbian Mansion.

"Why did you come with me?"

Seeing Qin Wenjian sitting beside him, Xu An asked in surprise.

"What if you don't come with me? Are you staying with your women?" Qin Wenjian retorted.

Xu An choked.

Haha, you make it sound like you are not a woman.

In front of the gate of Xu's house, watching the prince's carriage go away, Kong Yan'er's pretty face was full of reluctance, looking at Xiao Lan'er and said: "Xiao Lan'er, don't we go and take a look?"

Xiao Lan'er glanced at Kong Yan'er lightly, and said in a cold voice: "You are an unmarried girl, running to Xu An's backyard, this is not in accordance with etiquette."

"If those civil servants were not busy with you now, they would have reported to Lord Kong for not disciplining you strictly."

Kong Yan'er looked at Xiao Lan'er and said: "Haha, you sound like you are married!"

"Xu An is my fiancé, it is natural for me to come to visit him."

Xiao Lan'er looked at the carriage that gradually disappeared from her sight, and said lightly: "But what about you? What identity are you here? Friend?"

"Just a friendship doesn't seem to be enough for you to cross the red line, right?"
