Chapter 99: Time-Lapse Grass
Ah Tao sorted out his thoughts a little, put his hair in a bun, and then opened the door and walked out.
A bamboo forest is impressively reflected in front of you, and the sassy bamboo wind blows over your face, rolling up the red clouds around you.
Ah Tao looked around in a daze, only to realize that he was already in the Jade Disturbance Courtyard.
Ah Tao walked briskly towards the study on the side, and called twice outside the door, but there was no response.
Ah Tao gently pushed open the door, poked his head in, and found that there was no one in the study.
"Are you looking for Childe?" asked a young man who happened to pass by behind him, "Childe is in the courtyard at the moment." ”
Ah Tao hurriedly turned around: "Thank you." ”
That little guy and Ah Tao had met a few times before in the Jade Disturbance Courtyard, and when he saw her face that had changed drastically, he was stunned on the spot.
Ah Tao smiled, didn't explain much, turned around and walked quickly in the direction of the fence courtyard.
Along the way, the little maidservants in the house, all who met her, stared at her for a while, mostly surprised, envious or jealous.
In this way, the places where Ah Tao passed through aroused a lot of whispers and surprises.
There is only a wall between the fence courtyard and the courtyard where Ah Tao lives, and she soon arrived outside the courtyard gate, and when she saw the closed courtyard gate, Ah Tao remembered that every time her son came to the fence courtyard, she used to take the small door on the side.
Ah Tao stretched out her hand and gently pushed open the door, the door made a creaking old and rotten sound, she was afraid of disturbing the Xiangyu inside, and the movements of her hands and feet became more and more gentle.
Entering the courtyard, Ah Tao saw the huge hedge tree that was still in full bloom, and there was no Xiangyu under the tree.
Ah Tao walked through the courtyard and towards the side door, and just a few steps closer, he heard a sound of voice coming from inside the house.
"This time, thanks to the reminder of the second patriarch of Han, I was able to get people to hurry up and send the delayed grass into the mansion of the Third Highness. Luan Chang's voice came out first.
Among the Han clan, the eldest brother Han Tao, the second brother Han Zhan, and the third brother Han Zeshui are all officials in the court, and in order to distinguish the three, everyone usually calls them clan titles in private.
Han Zhan is currently serving as the chief farmer of the third product in the court, and is in charge of the fruit of the vegetable garden in Cangcang City.
"How long did the time-delay grass prolong?" Xiangyu's lazy and cold voice sounded faintly.
"I guess it's almost half a day. A voice replied respectfully, and Tao felt as if he had heard it.
She crept closer to the window where the small opening had been opened, and peered through it.
Seeing that there were a total of six people in the room, sitting in the middle was Xiangyu, who was sitting on the couch with half his back and leaning on the couch, and two people on each side of him were sitting upright, Han Zhan and Luan Chang on the left, Luan Fengan and Yin Heng on the right, and the raccoon slave was standing behind Xiangyu as usual.
The familiar voice was Luan Feng'an, who had a relationship with her at the boat banquet.
Luan Chang, who spoke earlier, said again: "His Royal Highness has really helped me a lot this time by waiting for the time-delayed grass hut that I have so hard-won, if there is no time-delaying grass, the consequences will be unimaginable." ”
"It's a disadvantage to do things in a lowly position, please punish the son. Yin Heng leaned down slightly apologetically.
Luan Feng'an comforted: "I can't blame you, the three fathers and sons of the Sheng clan are not easy to deal with, if you and Yue can finally bring the dancing girl back to Yin'an, it is really not easy, not to mention that this matter has been satisfactorily resolved now, you don't need to blame yourself too much." ”
Luan Chang: "However, His Royal Highness, who has always stayed out of the matter and is not involved in government affairs, is willing to help us this time, which is unexpected." ”
Everyone nodded.
"Speaking of which, Brother Luan, you have also made a great contribution this time, if it weren't for the help of your errand game, we wouldn't have been able to successfully send the delay grass to Yin'an in such a short period of time. This time it was Han Zhan who spoke, his eyebrows were clear, he was wearing a sandalwood shirt with large sleeves, a high crown on his head, and he looked more than forty years old.
Everyone in the royal family thought that Luan Feng'an was just a straw bag that was idle all day long, his father relied on his son, and he would only spend money, who would have thought that Luan Feng'an was just idle, and from time to time he could add bricks and tiles to the Luan family.
Luan Feng'an shook his rich and noble ingot-patterned vermilion silk shirt, and said with a smile: "If you say so, you will also make a lot of contributions to the second patriarch of Han, if you hadn't learned the news that the people of the Third Highness had found the delay grass, and informed me in time, we wouldn't be able to do the rest of the thing." ”
Han Zhan pretended to be modest and waved his hand: "The Third Highness also mentioned this matter by chance when he was chatting with me about flowers and plants, and it was a matter of pure luck. Although he said this, his tone and expression couldn't hide his smugness.
Luan Chang: "However, this time the little boy from Xunfu made me a little impressed." ”
Luan Fengan looked at Luan Chang: "What do you say?"
Luan Chang: "On that day, His Royal Highness invited all the clans who had been cursed by the pre-death curse to go to his mansion to enjoy the flowers and plants, and no one was willing to go at first, after all, compared to His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness was really weak in the court, but it was this little prince Xun who took the lead in going, which led to other clans having to follow." ”
Han Zhan: "This little prince Xun seems to have some friendship with His Royal Highness, but compared to some old antiques in the royal family who only guard one acre and three points of land in front of him, and his eyelids are getting shallower and shallower, he is indeed more concerned about the overall situation." ”
Hearing this, Ah Tao outside the house had roughly sorted out his thoughts in his mind.
Lord Han Zhan accidentally learned that the people of the Third Highness had found a delay grass that could delay the time for half a day, so he informed Lord Luan, and Lord Luan's father, Luan Feng'an, used the errand dart bureau under his own business name to send the newly found delay grass into the Three Highnesses' mansion as quickly as possible.
After that, the third prince invited all the clans in the January Pre-Death Curse to gather in his mansion, and then used the Delay Grass to extend the time limit for everyone present to be from the onset of the Pre-Death Curse by half a day, which just made up for Yin Heng and Yueru's mistake of sending the dancing girl back to Yin'an an one or two hours late.
After the dancing girl was sent to the palace of the three royal highnesses, she re-danced the Fengluan blessing dance in the Xun Mansion with other dancing girls, and the January pre-death curse was eliminated at the last moment.
Ah Tao only understood at this time why Yin Heng, who had been guarding Xiangyu, and Yueru, who had been guarding Xiangyu, were not by Xiangyu's side in the previous dangerous Muyu Phantom Array, it turned out that they were sent by Xiangyu to carry out the task of recapturing the dancing girl from the Sheng clan and escorting them back to Yin'an.
Before being in the wooden fish phantom array, Xiangyu had always been there and was not worried at all, and Ah Tao knew that he must have planned everything, but to what extent, he didn't know.
Now that she listens to it, she deeply realizes that Xiangyu is amazing, and she also feels that she has really been silently and powerfully protected by him.
Thinking of this, Adao's heart suddenly palpitated, but this feeling was fleeting.
Ah Tao stroked his chest, and a trace of doubt flashed on his face.
Inside the house, Yin Heng suddenly asked a question-
Ah Tao and Qin Shuang also had a pre-death curse in their bodies, but their time was not delayed, so why could they be saved?
It was Xiangyu who answered him.
"After watching the complete Fengming Blessing Dance, if most people are alive, all living beings will survive, which is why the Fengming Blessing Dance has always been regarded as a blessing dance that can summon auspiciousness. ”
Ah Tao suddenly realized.
This is a blessing in disguise.
The sound of talking in the house continued, and Ah Tao stepped on small steps and left quietly.
Xiangyu, who had been holding his head and half leaning on the couch, turned his face slightly to the side at the moment when Ah Tao left, in the direction of the window where Ah Tao was standing just now.
