Quick Wear: The Crazy Host is the Paranoid's Treasure

Chapter 236 The Sick and Vicious Soldier and His Iron-Blooded and Cold-Faced General 15

Xiao Xiechuan raised his eyelids and looked at him.

The man smiled gently and said softly, "I don't mean any harm."

Xiao Xiechuan's dark eyes darkened slightly: "If the Fifth Prince also wants to take the things in the general's hand, I will definitely not let it go."

The fifth prince shook the jade fan in his hand, looked back at him and said, "Xie Chuan, you know that I don't understand military affairs, and the tiger talisman is useless. It's better to rob more money and really help the people in need instead of letting it fall into the hands of those corrupt officials."

Xiao Xiechuan looked at him straight.

The fifth prince closed his fan and said helplessly, "Okay, okay, I swear! I will never hurt General Jiang Yunci!"

Xiao Xiechuan withdrew his gaze.

An idea flashed through the Fifth Prince's mind, and he slightly widened his eyes, looked at him in surprise and said, "You kid, you didn't grab the three major military merits just to get the general's attention, did you? The day you won the three major military merits, your reputation spread all over the capital thousands of miles away. That kid who got ahead didn't get any news at all, and you suppressed it all..."

He paused for a moment, then spoke again in disbelief: "It was not your plan to make the general only notice you, was it?!"

Xiao Xiechuan lowered his eyes and said nothing.

Fifth Prince:..........

It's almost the same.

Every time I said something that hit home with him, he would just ignore me.

The fifth prince raised his hand and rubbed his temple: "Xie Chuan, I always thought you were an extremely stable person, so I gave this task to you."

But who would have thought?

The boy has not yet gained his father's trust, and his whole heart has drifted to Jiang Yunci.

He was like a peacock spreading its feathers, wishing to show off his muscles and strength in all directions in front of the general.

Xiao Xiechuan said in a cold voice: "It won't cause any trouble, don't worry."

The Fifth Prince: "Really?"

Xiao Xiechuan nodded indifferently.

The Fifth Prince: "What if, I mean what if... If the left side is me who was imprisoned by my father, and the right side is the clothes worn by the general, what would you choose?"

Xiao Xiechuan paused for a moment, raised his eyes to look at him, and frowned slightly: "You ask even though you know the answer."

The fifth prince breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, I was not completely blinded by Jiang Yunci.

As for why he knew that Xiao Xiechuan stole Jiang Yunci's clothes, it was because among the soldiers who had returned, there was one who was specifically responsible for taking care of Jiang Yunci's food, clothing, housing and transportation. He could tell if the general ate one less bite of food or wore one more piece of clothing.

That day, the soldier reported to him that the general had been missing several pieces of clothes in the past few days, and even an unwashed piece of clothing was missing.

The only person who carried the general's dirty clothes from the river back to the camp and entered the general's carriage was Xiao Xiechuan.

The fifth prince had a gratified smile on his face: "You still have me, your old friend, in your heart, I..."

"General."

Before he could finish his words, he heard someone say something out of the blue, which made him unable to react for a moment.

The fifth prince came back to his senses:...........

When recruiting people for the Blood Rain Temple in the future, the first thing they must do is not to hire those who are love-sick!

The person in front of him was watching coldly. The fifth prince reacted and said helplessly with his eyes closed: "That person will not hurt the general."

I got caught off guard and exposed myself.

Xiao Xiechuan retracted his gaze and said in a low and cold voice: "It's okay, those people will be useless after a while."

Fifth Prince: ???

The Fifth Prince three seconds later:......

He: "You want to enter the general's mansion?"

Xiao Xiechuan did not intend to discuss these issues with him anymore, so he changed the subject and said, "Most people in the court are standing behind the Eighth Prince, but the Emperor wants the Third Prince to ascend the throne."

His expression became even more gloomy and cold: "I came here today to find you and make the Eighth Prince suffer."

The fifth prince raised his eyebrows slightly: "Did the eighth prince provoke you?"

Xiao Xiechuan was very capable, and his dealings with him were just a coincidence. At that time, he was still a blacksmith in an ordinary village, and he was hunted down to that village by people sent by other princes.

Because those people accidentally knocked over his blacksmithing tools, making a mess, and then he beat up all the pursuers by himself, making them cry for their mothers, and even he was hit several times.

Because he was the one who provoked those people.

Later, I tried many methods, until I gave him a set of new and easy-to-use blacksmithing tools, he reluctantly agreed to participate in the affairs of the Blood Rain Temple.

He would not be called except for some difficult matters.

Even if you need his help, you have to wait until he finishes making the iron tools in his hands before you start.

Despite this, he was able to complete the task excellently without leaving any traces.

This time, he was needed to get close to the emperor, so he was given several days' worth of blacksmithing tools before he was allowed to leave.

He never took the initiative to contact me, nor would he contact anyone in the Blood Rain Temple, but today...

But he rarely asked for my help.

Xiao Xiechuan looked at him: "Just tell me if it's okay or not."

The Fifth Prince: "Sure! Of course!"

By the next evening, he regretted it.

He sat in a chair and listened to the people around him saying that the eighth prince fell and hit his head on the table after getting up in the morning, breaking his forehead. When he walked to the Imperial Library and opened the door, he was drenched by a basin of feces on the door. When he went back to take a bath, he broke four wooden barrels. At noon, before he sat down to eat, a cat ran in and urinated on it. Before he could lose his temper, the legs of the dining table broke, and all the food on the table was spilled on him.

However, the story was not over yet. In the afternoon, when he passed the back garden, he suddenly lost his balance and fell into the water.

After all this happened, the person who did these pranks still couldn't be found.

The fifth prince felt a slight chill down his spine.

This Xiao Xiechuan...

Although none of the things he did did endanger his life, it would make his superstitious father think that his eighth brother was a person with bad luck, and if things were handed over to him, it would affect the country's destiny.

Sure enough, on the morning of the third day, my eighth brother was sent to Lingshan Temple to eat vegetarian meals for a month on the pretext of removing impurities from his body.

One month is enough for the Eighth Brother to lose a lot of things and people's hearts.

In addition, my father wanted my third brother to hold on to power, so he secretly summoned General Jiang Yunci the day after my eighth brother went to Lingshan Temple.

Out of curiosity, the Fifth Prince went to the Golden Palace with a bowl of porridge he had cooked himself.

After the father and son performed a show of deep affection, the person the Fifth Prince had always wanted to see finally arrived.

The man walked into the Golden Palace. After the Fifth Prince saw the man's face clearly, he was slightly stunned.
