Chapter 284: Captive Little Beast
"My lord, the city of Miyagi is too noisy, so I have prepared this quiet building for you, please rest here. ”
The middle-aged man with wolf patterns on his body was quite respectful to the fat monk, but the latter's face was solemn, and he looked at the three words "Guyunlou" written on the plaque, and his tone was cold.
"In the past, when I came to the royal court, the king ordered my master and apprentice to live in the palace golden pavilion. Although I am a monk and don't care whether it is a gold brick or a small mud brick building, is the attitude of the Goulong Bang clan towards the monks of Tanghua Temple like this? Or is this all the arrangement of the king?"
Xia Xiao looked at the fat monk, if he didn't enter Guyun Tower, he naturally wouldn't go in. But isn't this a good place? There are no people around, and there is no hiding place, and they don't have to worry about being watched, so it's very suitable. But the fat monk wants to ask for a reason, the people of the Goulong Bang clan are all smart, but in fact, if they dig a little deeper, they don't respect themselves.
The fat monk has been to many places, whether it is the imperial capital of the Great Xia Dynasty or the imperial capital of the southern kingdom, Yugu, the people in it have been good to entertain them, live in elegant places, and eat elegant food. He is not greedy for elegant food, not close to beauty, all he wants is an attitude. Otherwise, he has been removing demons for free in Tanghua Temple for so many years, and if he hasn't even earned this bit of awe, then he can pay it back?
The so-called everyone is different, the fat monk cares more about these, the man heard what he meant, and immediately expressed his position.
"It's just that the villain is making an assertion, and the king has absolutely no such meaning. ”
"And what do you mean?"
The man sweated on his forehead and became nervous, which was a big sin if he didn't handle it well.
"Princess Xuanping suffered from malaria, and the villain was afraid of infecting adults, so he didn't let you enter the palace. ”
Listening to the fat monk's long sigh, the man's mood was calm, fortunately he had a good excuse, otherwise it would be over. However, my princess did have a disease, and she sought medical treatment for many days without any effect, and she didn't know how long her life would be. When the man thought that the fat monk would live here because of this, the latter said:
"Take me into the palace, monk, and I'll cure this disease. ”
When the man heard this, although his words were polite, he was pleasantly surprised:
"If you don't bother the monks, please come with me. ”
Although the purpose of these four people is a little unclear, the man thinks that he can cure the princess's illness, and he will take credit, which is very good. He was afraid that they would enter the palace, defile the Golden Pavilion, and spy on the secrets, but he still let the coachman ride into the palace. Those things can be talked about in the future, and we must not let the opportunity to make a great contribution because of unrealistic conjectures. This Princess Xuanping is the king's beloved daughter!
The coachman's wish to drink herbal tea was disappointed, and when he waited until the afternoon, he would no longer have the cool and crooked taste of noon. But even if his face was ugly, no one noticed. The small characters are all sad faces, and they are all the same.
In the carriage, the fat monk said:
"The palace of the Golong Bang clan is the strictest place in the world, there are eagles and falcons in the sky, and there are beasts on the ground, if you don't enter it, it will be difficult for you to carry out your mission. ”
Xia Xiao nodded slightly, understanding the former's good intentions, but he never revealed the peach blossom petals. It's good that the fat monk knows that he has a task in his body, but this matter can't be talked about in detail. Just like the master talked a lot with him that day, but he didn't mention the content of the task itself. Xia Xiao knew what Hu didn't return, and the fat monk also understood, so he didn't ask. It's just that he saw that Xia Xiao had sorrow in his eyes and asked:
"What's left unresolved?"
Xia Xiao shook his head, and a red hibiscus flower bloomed in his memory. It bloomed quietly, with a memory that was not too long, nor too deep to the bone.
"Just remembering someone. ”
When Ah Candle thought it was Shu Shuang again, Xia Xiao said:
"The princess of Great Xia has been defeated by illness. ”
"Why are princesses like this?"
Ah Candle's mouth is fast, but Xia Xiao's fingers are crossed, and his elbows are propped up on his legs.
"Captive beasts are different from wild beasts like you, your environment is always telling you that if you are not careful, you will die, they are different. ”
When he thought of the past, Xia Xiao felt that he was a bad star. At the beginning, so many people were engaged to him, and later they all regretted their marriage, but only Ji Yunying did not tear up the marriage contract. But later, within a few days of his return to the emperor, she passed away. That day, the hibiscus flowers fell, and he sighed deeply for a long time, such a gentle girl should have a good home. At least before you die, you should enjoy a happy time, but you can leave in a hurry. As if he had finally understood what was in his heart, he departed.
Shu Shuang also left in a hurry, and now she thinks about it without warning, and even a little inexplicable.
Xia Xiao looked at his shoes, there was a little soil sticking underneath, the soil was dry, and there were two extremely short sticks of hay.
"Get out of the car. ”
Ah Candle saw that something was wrong with Xia Xiao, and her voice was softer, but when Xia Xiao got out of the car with her bag on her back, she returned to her previous liveliness and cheerfulness. Xia Xiao felt that she had never experienced life and death, so she would be so stupid and happy. But in fact, even if she has experienced it, it will not change much.
"Please stay with the four of you first, and I will go and tell the king that there is a monk who treats the princess. ”
The man ran fast, lost his composure, and became a little more restless. As long as the matter is reported, regardless of whether the matter is successful or not, his credit will be in hand, and this kind of good thing is not uncommon.
The maid stepped forward to serve, but Xia Xiao and they were mostly casual, putting down their backpacks and taking out the things in them to sort out. The only request made was to prepare hot water, they were to take a bath. The four of them hadn't taken a bath for a long time, and when everything was ready, they immediately put down their things and soaked in the water.
Although they were separated by a room, Xia Xiao could still hear Ah Candle talking to himself. She would say so comfortably for a while, and then ask the maid why is your water white?
If it weren't for Ah Candle and the fat monk walking together, they wouldn't have been able to enjoy this kind of treatment. And it was precisely because of her peers, who inlaid them with a coat of gold skin, that she was able to get the lady's extremely patient answer. Ah Candle couldn't understand it, but he knew that there were a lot of things added to it, so he had a sense of ritual and was ready to soak for a while.
It's not a meal now, but in this place, there is no shortage of fruits. Many of the fruits in the palace are ornaments, and when they are about to spoil, they are taken to eat by the next people. But Ah Candle is hungry, so she will eat it as soon as she takes it, and she is welcome. Aren't these things here just for eating?
The fat monk felt reasonable, let the little monk feel free, he was stunned, although he also picked up the rare fruit in winter, but the appearance of eating was not as exaggerated as A Candle. The little monk didn't know why, since he saw Xia Xiao Ah Candle, the master's requirements for him were getting lower and lower. But that's a good thing, it's better to be tight than to be tight all the time.
When the barbecue came, Ah Candle's elated appearance made Xia Xiao glare at her fiercely. Seeing this, Ah Candle was restrained and no longer so rude. When the fat monk saw it, he ignored the maid around him and said:
"You're so strict with her. ”
"She didn't behave well, so she naturally had to say, otherwise she wouldn't be able to marry in the future. ”
People who want to marry me in the future will definitely go from this row to Yugu. ”
Ah Candle was afraid of Xia Xiao, so he lowered his head after speaking, with a cowardly expression.
"Who would dare to marry you just like you?"
Ah Candle snorted, ignoring him, knowing that she didn't want to quarrel with Xia Xiao. If you have this time, it is better to eat more skewers of barbecue. The barbecue is very fragrant, charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and the meat is fresh and delicious.
After a while, the man from earlier came. With a happy face, he was the first to introduce himself.
The villain dragon smiled falsely, and on the order of the king, he came to bring you to the audience. ”
Xia Xiao couldn't get used to this person, he had the face and figure of a warrior, but he was doing things that were despicable to civil officials, and his eyebrows and eyes were the most ugly.
The fat monk got up and said:
"My little apprentice won't go, he stays here to wash clothes. ”
Long smiled and said okay, Ah Candle didn't want to go, and said weakly.
"I'm not going to do it, I'm going to stay here and eat meat. ”
The fat monk looked at Xia Xiao, who directly grabbed Ah Candle's ear. As she said something wrong, she shoved a few mouthfuls of meat into her mouth and filled her cheeks before stopping. Seeing that she had no status like this, Long smiled and only asked the fat monk and Xia Xiao to call her. He was carried away by the fame before, and he didn't even ask the fat monk's Dharma name, which was really a joke in the palace.
"The poor monk is in vain. ”
"Junior Fang Huan. ”
Ah Candle snorted while saying round sadness, which was funny. Xia Xiao was secretly annoyed, it seemed that he would have to clean him up when he was going to be. Afterwards, the three of them followed Long and laughed and went to meet the king of the Goulong Bang clan together. The little monk sat on a chair and ate the last two skewers of barbecue.
The monk ate meat, as if it was a great irony, and the maids saw it with novelty, but the little monk who was about ten years old had already maintained the same face, packed it up, and took out a large pile of clothes from the master. He also took out Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang's laundry, but the maids competed to wash it, but he just wouldn't let it.
"Little Master, you are so stubborn, you can wash men's clothes, and you should always hand over women's clothes to us, right?"
The handmaid, who was quite attractive, pointed to the clothes in the little monk's arms, and he immediately blushed. This shy appearance made the maids laugh secretly, a child is a child after all, and no matter how sensible he is, he is also a child. A monk is a monk after all, the meat is edible, and the woman can't get close, not at all.
After the little monk handed over Ah Candle's clothes to the maid, he carried a basin and washed clothes in front of the Golden Pavilion. Under this splendid attic, he is the only one who is the most peculiar, and he works very hard to wash his clothes. The maid asked him to go to the backyard with him, but the little monk was stubborn and refused. He had to wait here for the master to come back, and the maid persuaded him several times, but he didn't listen, so he had no choice but to do what he did.
The maids are naturally happy when their workload is small, but Xia Xiao and Ah Candle live separately, which is a good opportunity, and they will have to be scheming sooner or later.
Because it was a matter of the princess, the king entertained the three in the side hall. But along the way, the dragon smiled and reminded constantly, lest they behave badly and the king would be angry with him. But he was too worried, and when he noticed it, he stopped and kept quiet.
Long Xuxiao's previous flattery was extremely hypocritical, which made Xia Xiao's gaze lower and lower when he looked at the Gou Long Bang clan. It seems that this country, in addition to its peculiar psychology, is also average. It should be said that everyone in the world is average, and they all feel that they are thoughtful and intelligent, and even God knows, only they can know, in fact, everyone in the world knows, but few people say it thoroughly.
