Chapter 204: Why does Prince Jia have the confidence to compare with Xie Lang?
Fortunately, the pills Wen Hemian carried with him were all prepared by the Imperial Hospital, and they were very effective. He sweated a lot at night and felt much better the next day.
My head still aches a bit, but that's not important.
She can indulge her emotions at night, and during the day, she will return to being the calm and composed Lord Wen that everyone is familiar with.
Xie Lang is missing and Xie Yong is here. She is the backbone and must not relax or fall.
She actually didn't believe that Xie Lang would fight an unprepared battle, but the fact was that not seeing him for so many days was a torment in itself.
Not finding the person is both good news and bad news.
This means that, at least until Xie Lang returns safely, she has to ensure that nothing goes wrong at the camp.
Wen Hemian has always enjoyed high prestige among civil and military officials, so even if she did not have military tokens in her hands, these people were willing to obey her orders and guard the entire camp impeccably.
Prince Jia and his entourage walked around the camp again and again. Anyone who came into contact with confidential information would be stopped. With Wen Hemian watching, he could not act rashly for the time being.
Most of the barbarians attacking from this side seemed to have been attracted over there by Xie Lang. Those who had arrived recently were just scattered soldiers and generals. With Zhou Ting and Qi Liangsheng around, it was no problem to deal with them, and good news came in one after another.
There was no so-called collapse of military morale at all.
Two days later, perhaps seeing that the situation was improving, Prince Jia finally couldn't sit still and came to the door.
He had expected this beforehand, so when he heard his subordinates say that he wanted to see someone, Wen Hemian was not surprised. His eyes turned cold and he said, "Let him in."
After entering, Prince Jia first raised his eyebrows and looked at the scene in the tent. Seeing that Wen Hemian did not leave anyone behind, he was quite surprised and smiled: "Lord Wen, aren't you afraid that I will arrest you and threaten them?"
Wen Hemian said expressionlessly: "You can't beat me."
It's obvious that Prince Jia has never been exposed to martial arts. He may have some tricks, but when it comes to real fighting, he is no match for him.
"Lord Wen is quite confident." Xie Yong smiled with an ambiguous tone and sat down. "Your Majesty has not heard from you for many days. Isn't Lord Wen anxious?"
Wen Hemian tightened his grip on the pen, and then said in a light tone: "I think His Royal Highness Prince Jia is in a hurry."
Not only their people, judging from the situation, it is estimated that Prince Jia’s people were unable to find Xie Lang either.
In other words, they are currently in an unknown game state, and whoever reveals a flaw first will lose.
"Then I might as well speak frankly to Lord Wen."
Xie Yong smiled confidently.
"Everyone knows that the life and death of the young emperor is uncertain. You are here just to wait for the result. I know that you and the young emperor are teacher and student, and you have a deep relationship, but he imprisoned you in the palace, and it is obvious that he does not care much about this relationship. You help him so much, how do you know if he will be grateful in the future? Your Wen family is just loyal to the royal family, and I am still a member of the royal family. It should not be difficult for Lord Wen to replace someone else, right?"
Xie Yong still didn't give up the idea of persuading Wen Hemian.
Aside from the fact that he really couldn't bear to see such a beauty die in a fight, a big reason was that he didn't want to confront the Wen family.
The people in their royal family are crazy, and so are those in the Wen family who protect their own people?
Once it happens, you still have to find a way to solve it, which is very troublesome.
Moreover, judging from the situation in the past few days, this Master Wen may not have deep feelings for the little emperor, otherwise why wouldn't he show any sadness at all?
He didn't believe that there was anyone in the world who could be so calm.
"Besides..." Xie Yong lowered his voice, with a hint of ambiguity in his smile, "If Lord Wen wants the position of Queen, I can still afford it once I ascend to that position."
"Young people are unstable. The young emperor is still young. It's ok for him to be passionate at the moment, but he may not be able to resist the temptation of beauty in the future. I don't have a wife, so isn't it just right for me to be with Lord Wen?"
Among all the vassal kings, who is not jealous of the power in the hands of Prince Huai Ling? Unfortunately, they do not have the ability nor the status to do so, so they cannot do it.
If I could take this power into my arms, I would feel satisfied just thinking about it.
Perhaps thinking he had a sure win, Xie Yong's gaze began to become unscrupulous, making people feel disgusted when they came into contact with him.
Wen Hemian: “…”
I hate people who make comments like this the most.
Her eyes turned even colder: "Your Highness Prince Jia, I advise you to be more careful when speaking."
If Wen Hemian didn't want to see what other tricks he had up his sleeve, he really wanted to throw him out right now.
"And..." Wen Hemian raised his eyelids, his coldness concealed a sharpness, "What kind of confidence does His Royal Highness Prince Jia have that he dares to compete with His Majesty?"
Although she was a bit rebellious, at least Xie Lang would not look at her with such disgusting eyes.
This is a bit sharp.
Suddenly being humiliated, Xie Yong's face turned extremely bad, and he stared at Wen Hemian gloomily: "I am willing to sit here to give face to Lord Wen. Lord Wen...you'd better not be ungrateful. My patience is limited."
Wen Hemian laughed and said, "Your Highness Prince Jia can just wait and see who will be the final winner."
As she spoke, she raised her hand, and someone appeared silently behind Xie Yong, saying in a cold voice: "Your Highness Prince Jia, please."
Xie Yong's eyes darkened, but he was not frightened. Instead, he left a cryptic sentence before leaving: "Lord Wen, you'd better think about it carefully. I will wait for good news."
After saying that, he walked away.
Wen Hemian would not be so arrogant as to put himself in danger. There were still two secret guards left in the tent. After Prince Jia left, Changzhu could not help but curse out loud: "This is too much!"
He raised his hand and gestured at her neck: "Miss, how about I go down..."
"Be patient." Wen Hemian calmed him down with one sentence, "He is a member of the royal family, and he has his own soldiers. It is not appropriate to take action now."
"But that mouth is really obscene."
There was a hint of disgust in Wen Hemian's eyes. After a while, he relaxed his shoulders and smiled: "It doesn't matter. Let him see with his own eyes how he loses what he wants most."
She came in a hurry. Firstly, she was really panicked and wanted to confirm what was going on with Xie Lang. Secondly, she wanted to calm people down.
However, after two days, she gradually calmed down and realized that something was wrong.
Zhou Ting searched for such a long time and found many bodies of the barbarians, but from beginning to end, he did not find a single body of their people.
The whole thing itself is irrational.
The most likely possibility is that Xie Lang and his men are hiding somewhere in the dark, secretly watching Prince Jia's every move, waiting for the opportunity to give him a fatal blow.
At this time, the calmer and more unmoved they are, the more flaws the restless Prince Jia will reveal, and the easier it will be to deal with him.
The fact that Prince Jia came to visit him today was enough to prove that Wen Hemian’s guess was correct.
