Chapter 44: The Princess's Mansion
The little princess confirmed Zhang Xi's ability to refine the pill, and she was not worried about Zhang Xi's escape, because there was a peak martial emperor next to her, and if she wanted to escape, she might have to weigh whether she had that ability
"Let's go, it's going to be a few days before Master Zhang goes to the White Tiger Empire, we have to hurry" looked at Zhang Xi's face again and said, "I have to go back and find a mask for you, lest you frighten others, no opinion"
"No opinion" Zhang Xi smiled, what opinion could he have, now he wants to figure out what kind of place this is, and then find a way to escape
immediately
watched the little princess return to the carriage with the little monkey, and then said to Liu Xizhe: "What is this adult's name?"
Liu Xizhe smiled and said, "Just call me Liu Xizhe." ”
Zhang Xi smiled: "My name is Zhang Xi, then I will call you Brother Liu." ”
He smiled and nodded: "Master Zhang is casual." ”
Following Liu Xizhe's side, as the convoy moved forward, it didn't take long for the little princess's voice to come out again
"Hey, the little monkey is hungry, anyway, there are still several days away from the imperial capital, you can refine all these elixirs. ”
Zhang Xi slandered the little princess in his heart, but in view of her arrogant and brutal temperament, he didn't dare to refuse on the surface, anyway, refining the spirit pill was easy for him now, and then he refined it in the carriage behind
The little monkey stayed in the carriage at first, and then Zhang Xi refined ten elixirs, which were sent to the carriage by Liu Xizhe's subordinates, and then fed to the little monkey by a cold maid beside the little princess
Later, maybe the little monkey felt that this was too troublesome, so he ran out of the carriage directly, stayed by Zhang Xi's side, and looked at Zhang Xi's hands that were refining the pill with expectant eyes.
If only the Sky Swallowing Tiger was still there, he must also like this elixir very much!
A few days passed in a flash
Zhang Xi has become familiar with Liu Xizhe, the little monkey, and Liu Xizhe's group of peak martial king-level subordinates, because of Zhang Xi's identity as the alchemy master, Liu Xizhe's subordinates are also happy to deal with Zhang Xi, and after coming and going, Zhang Xi has been commensurate with all the brothers
The number of people on the official road gradually increased, and after they saw the convoy of the little princess here, they stopped and saluted, until the convoy left a hundred feet away, they dared to move forward, all the way to the way, Zhang Xi couldn't help but sigh, the royal family of the White Tiger Empire was much more powerful than that of the Tianyu Dynasty
When entering the city gate, the soldiers guarding the city, under the leadership of a general, knelt down to the little princess, and the little princess seemed to have lost her brutal nature at this time, waved her hand solemnly, and said with a smile: "Get up, don't be polite." ”
With that, she turned and got into the carriage
Liu Xizhe nodded at the general, and then led the convoy towards the little princess's mansion
"Really good at pretending. ”
Zhang Xi muttered in his heart
"Who is that guy next to Liu Xizhe?
In the distance, in a luxury carriage, the roller shutter was lifted slightly, and a pair of eyes were watching the little princess's convoy, especially Zhang Xi paused, his red lips opened lightly, and said.
Outside the carriage, a knight dressed similarly to Liu Xizhe glanced at Zhang Xi and said in a low voice: "This person has never appeared in the imperial capital, maybe it is a relative that the little princess brought back from her grandfather." ”
"Relatives, relatives with half of their faces gone!"
"Hehe, since the little sister has come back, then you go and call Sima Ci, and let's go to the little sister's house together. ”
"Yes, Third Princess!"
......
"The little princess is back home!"
The subordinates in the princess's mansion greeted her happily, but Zhang Xi didn't expect that this unruly girl was quite loved?
The little princess walked out of the carriage and said with a smile: "No courtesy, Liu Xizhe, you will remember to come out to greet you later, and each person will be rewarded with five hundred taels of silver." ”
The flush on the faces of the subordinates was even worse, and they shouted excitedly: "Princess Chitose!"
"I see. ”
Zhang Xi rolled his eyes, Liu Xizhe seemed to be used to this kind of scene, and gave his subordinates a look, and immediately someone stepped forward to distribute the silver tickets to these subordinates
At this time, a few maids who received the news relatively late hurriedly ran to the door, and when they saw that everyone had already divided the silver taels, they immediately beat their chests with remorse
"Hey, my mansion is magnificent, right? Do you have such a big mansion?"
The princess glanced at Zhang Xi
Zhang Xi took a look, this mansion just stretches for miles on the outer wall, which shows how big it is, even if it is the Pingnan Hou Mansion, it is not so magnificent, so he nodded slightly: "The princess's mansion is really magnificent." We don't, compared to here we are like latrines.
"Haha, you kid speaks very nicely. The princess smiled proudly, and led the cold maid into the door, surrounded by a large number of subordinates
Liu Xizhe smiled at Zhang Xi: "Master Zhang, please." ”
Then Liu Xizhe took Zhang Xi into the gate and followed behind the princess
Then
"Ninth sister, you didn't notify the third sister when you came back?"
A beautiful woman in palace costume walked in with a group of knights dressed similar to Liu Xizhe, and the little princess's face changed slightly when she heard her voice.
"It seems that the person who came is not good. ”
Zhang Xi took a step back with some schadenfreude and prepared to watch the play
The Ninth Princess sneered at the palace beauty: "Third sister, why are you here?"
Her eyes swept over the people behind the third princess, and in a young man in his thirties, who was suave and looked at her with a smile, she paused, and she already knew the other party's intentions in her heart, and subconsciously glanced at Zhang Xi, which gave Zhang Xi a bad premonition
really
The third princess said with a smile: "I made an appointment with the ninth sister before, and let my subordinates compete with their respective alchemists, has the younger sister forgotten?
The ninth princess immediately hugged the little monkey tightly and looked at the third princess vigilantly: "The little gray ash was given to me by my father, don't you want to fight it!"
The third princess smiled and said, "Oh, that's why the ninth sister doesn't dare to bet?"
"Who said I wouldn't dare!"
When the ninth princess heard this, she exploded instantly, as if she had been robbed of the hen, her whole body exuded a belligerent aura, and she glared at each other angrily: "Bet on it!" Third sister, aren't you just because there is a Sima Ci, you think that I don't have an alchemy master under me, hahaha, Zhang Xi will come over to me!"
Liu Xizhe glanced at Zhang Xi and winked
Zhang Xi reluctantly showed a smile and stepped forward: "What does the princess command?"
The Ninth Princess said loudly: "I will send you to test the alchemy with my third sister's subordinate Sima Ci, if you win, I will reward you with a mask made of gold!"
Zhang Xi's face is not very good-looking, what a rude princess, she said that she would give me a mask before she came, and now she asked me to fight Dan and won a mask for me!
A trace of ridicule flashed on the third princess's face, and then disappeared, and then she looked at Zhang Xi with a smile on her face, looking up and down: "I have never seen this son, half of his face is gone, and he can refine the pill, isn't it the disciple of that old monster in the mountains!"
