Chapter 482: Undercurrents are surging
After the girl left, Xiang Yue learned that she was Hu Shu'er, the daughter of the same clan as the biological mother of the current emperor Song Wendi. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Emperor Wen of Song's biological mother passed away early, and he took great care of the people of his mother's family, and heard that Hu Shu'er looked a little similar to Emperor Song Wendi's biological mother, and Emperor Wen of Song intended to make her a princess, and the palace banquet on August 15 had not yet arrived, so he took her into the palace to live.
Xiang Yue thought to herself, the imperial city is really everywhere, you can meet the emperor's relatives everywhere.
Xue Fu and Gao Xirou were very disgusted with this Miss Biao before they met Xiang Yue, and they were a little jealous, in fact, they also admired Fang Zhongyu, but now that they have come into contact, not only are they no longer disgusted and jealous, but they are a little more close.
Although Xiang Yue is not a person to mess with, Hu Shu'er relies on the current emperor and offends her, Xue Fu and Gao Xirou are a little worried about Xiang Yue.
Xiang Yue didn't think so, she was in the name of Miss Princess's Mansion, and she was also a little close to Emperor Song Wen, with a little reason, Hu Shu'er couldn't make trouble about this matter.
Besides, she even dares to kill the old monster in Dacheng Realm, is she still afraid of a little girl?
Next, Xiang Yue went shopping with Xue Fu and Gao Xirou and had a good conversation.
"Xiangyue!"
Hearing a familiar cry, Xiang Yue happily beckoned to the visitor, "Taozi, why are you here?"
"I heard that you came out, of course, I came to accompany you shopping. ”
Tao Zihuan ran to Xiang Yue's side, but didn't look at Fang Zhongyu, this man was too beautiful, but his temper was too bad, she was afraid that she would not be able to help but look at him a few more times, but it was better not to see it.
Tao Zi is also a lively person, and soon mingled with Xue Fu and Gao Xirou, and the four women went shopping together, which was really lively.
Tengyi Pavilion is located in the most lively commercial center of the Imperial City, and the closer you get to Tengyi Pavilion, the more shops there are.
Fang Zhongyu followed behind Xiang Yue and several women, his forehead was already sweating, it was not hot, it was urgent, seeing them shopping one after another, endlessly, when would he be able to get to Tengyi Pavilion?
Hao Tingjun's forehead was also sweating, he was not in a hurry, but when several women were buying things, they could talk about it for a while, like him, a big man, he really didn't study what women liked, and he didn't have anything to say.
Shopping with women is a technical job.
"Miss Xiang, there are three people who have been following you since you left the princess's mansion......"
Xiang Yue's ears came from Yixin's secret words, and it was obvious that Yixin had learned that she was out of the mansion and began to protect her in secret again.
However, Yixin didn't finish his words, hesitated for a moment, and whispered again: "One of them seems to be a descendant of the Wu clan. ”
If it was an evil witch, he wouldn't be so hesitant, but the person who followed Xiang Yue was not an evil witch, he was sent by Yiyang to protect Xiang Yue, and he stayed by her side for many days, knowing that in addition to Shan Lao and Ju Li, she also had an apprentice Xiao Wu, who was a descendant of the Wu clan, and the only other descendants of the Wu clan who knew him were the Yi family and the Tao family.
This descendant of the Wu clan who was discovered by him stared at Xiang Yue with obvious surveillance and hostility, which made him very puzzled.
"Keep an eye on this Wu descendant and find out where it came from. ”
Xiang Yue followed the voice and saw Yixin hidden in the crowd, and the secret voice was transmitted over. But she knew that this descendant of the Wu clan must have been sent by a mysterious woman, so she wanted to seize some opportunity to capture her.
The evil witch kept her useful, and once sent someone to protect her secretly, so he wouldn't attack her so quickly.
Only the mysterious woman was bent on catching her, taking her inheritance and the scepter of the Celestial Maiden.
A few days ago, the old woman who was a mid-level cultivator in the True Body Realm sent by General Xiang Yue to arrest her destroyed her corpse with the Bone Immortal Sword, and to that mysterious woman, it was like evaporating from the world, and there was no news at all.
In this cultivation environment where the immortal power element is lacking, losing such a high-level cultivator is equivalent to losing an arm, I am afraid that the mysterious woman is also anxious, and she has to catch Xiang Yue and ask about the situation.
But this is the Imperial City, not a place where you can do it casually, and it is not easy to find an opportunity to catch Xiang Yue.
"Cousin, there are three people who have been watching over us. ”
Xiang Yue whispered to Fang Zhongyu, knowing that he was not simple, it was necessary to remind him, let him also pay attention, and don't let that mysterious woman's person be unfavorable to the princess's mansion.
Fang Zhongyu nodded quietly.
The government soldiers he brought were guarding the periphery, and they would not let ordinary people approach, and if Xiang Yue and the others entered the store, the government soldiers would guard the door of the store to prevent others from entering the store.
Fang Zhongyu and Hattingjun will follow up the store, if there are other customers in the store, ordinary people will choose to avoid it; people who know will greet Fang Zhongyu and Huntingjun; people who don't know each other, each looks at each other, each buys his own, and there is no conflict.
In the Imperial City, Fang Zhongyu believed that no one would make a move without scruples, but being watched by others was a potential danger, and he naturally would not let this danger expand.
A few people in the crowd who were hiding their own powerful aura moved quietly, it was Fang Zhongyu who mobilized the masters in the shadows and closely monitored the surroundings.
In the lively streets, there are undercurrents.
At this time, Xiang Yue and the others entered a jewelry store, and the shopkeeper in the store was entertaining two noblewomen dressed in luxury to look at each other's jewelry, and there were four accompanying maidservants standing next to them.
Seeing Xiang Yue and a large group of them coming in, the two noble ladies didn't seem to want to provoke right and wrong, so they said to the shopkeeper, "Come back another day", and left with the maidservant.
There is a faint smell of rouge left in the store.
Xiang Yue's nose was sharp, and he felt that the soul body in his mind had not yet been condensed and formed, and he trembled slightly, and he couldn't help but be alert, and his mind hooked up with the soul.
The soul is angry because of the history of the previous taught by Xiang Yue in the past few days, and I didn't want to deal with her, but I heard that the body may have been drugged, so I didn't dare to ignore it.
It thought that this body was theirs, and it was still thinking about when it would take back the sovereignty of the body from Xiang Yue's hands, and it would definitely not let anything happen to the body.
The soul returned to his mind, and through his nose, he ingested some of the rouge fragrance in the store, and hurriedly returned to Xianyuan Dan and went to the wooden house of Wan Worm.
After a while, Xiang Yue got the news from the soul.
This carmine is a kind of drug called "ghost incense", and the person who suffers from this incense will be like having sleepwalking, the body is uncontrollable, and the person who is drugged will be restrained.
In fact, it is the soul that is controlled by the person who took the drug, which is somewhat similar to the March Ecstasy Drunk refined by Xiang Yue, which is a poison that controls the soul of a person.
It's just that the spirit incense will not affect the thinking of the person who is drugged, and it looks normal as usual, and only under the control of the person who took the drug will sleepwalking syndrome appear.
"Can ten thousand insects cure this mystery?"
Xiang Yue's first hunch was that the mysterious woman sent someone to do it, and it was not surprising that she could refine the evil medicine of "Ascension Immortal Powder" and refine the "Wandering Soul Incense", and she could only sigh at the power of this person's alchemy master.
As soon as he heard the words "Soul Incense", Xiang Yue searched for the formula and solution of this medicine in the "Secret Explanation", "Condensing Incense Record", and even "Poison Sutra", but found nothing.
Fortunately, there is a poison master under her hand.
"Yes, she said it will take some time, about three or four hours. The soul soon sent back the words of ten thousand insects.
"Well, let Wan Worm prepare an antidote, and prepare a few more. ”
The corners of Xiang Yue's mouth curled slightly, and she continued to go shopping with Tao Zi and the others casually, and in public, the person who drugged her would not let her make strange moves, and should control her while there was no one around her, or when she was sleeping.
Three or four hours, she could afford to wait.
Anyone who entered this shop was afraid that they had already inhaled the "Soul Incense" unconsciously, and Xiang Yue asked Wan Worm to prepare a few more antidotes, which were to be distributed to Tao Zi, Fang Zhongyu and others, so as not to have any accidents.
As for the shopkeeper and the others, the mysterious woman thought of it and disdained it.
But it is not ruled out that this shop is in the name of the mysterious woman, and Xiang Yue also secretly sent a secret message to Yixin, asking him to send someone to keep an eye on this shop, as well as the two departing noblewomen.
That mysterious woman, Xiang Yue must find out this person!
"Xiang girl!"
As soon as he stepped into a fabric store, a middle-aged man dressed as a shopkeeper greeted him politely, and seemed to recognize Xiang Yue.
But Xiang Yue didn't know this person, but she reacted immediately, and looked at the signboard hanging in the shop, isn't it Su Chifeng's industry.
Obviously, Su Chifeng has already explained to the shopkeeper, just waiting for Xiang Yue to come to the store one day, or to check the accounts.
"The shopkeeper's surname?"
"The villain's surname is Sue. The shopkeeper surnamed Su hurriedly replied respectfully.
Xiang Yue nodded with a smile, and selected the fabric with Tao Zi and the others.
Just choose a few pieces of fabric to go back, wait for Wu Sheng and Gu Niang to come to the imperial city, and then make two sets of chic clothes for Princess Mingyu, Xiang Yue didn't forget Fang Zhongyu and chose one for him.
At the strong request of Hatingjun, Xiang Yue promised to make him a set, of course, he couldn't leave Su Chifeng behind.
As a result, all the fabrics selected by Tao Zi, Xue Fu and Gao Xirou were handed over to her, and she naturally accepted it, but it might take a little longer, so let them wait patiently.
In the end, the shopkeeper refused to accept the cashier, and did not let the people from the princess's mansion take away the fabrics, so he had to send someone to the princess's mansion in person, saying that this was the rule of doing business.
Xue Fu and Gao Xirou looked at Shopkeeper Su like fools.
Xiang Yue laughed in her heart, she didn't have to think about it to know that it would definitely be Su Chifeng who would send the fabric into the princess's mansion at that time, and this guy was looking for opportunities to see her all the time.
Until after noon, before they arrived at Tengyi Pavilion, several people were already hungry, Xue Fu and Gao Xirou said goodbye and returned home, Xiang Yue, Taozi, Fang Zhongyu and Hao Tingjun went directly to Tengyi Pavilion.
Yiyang waited at the door early and immediately greeted them to the banquet.
At the banquet, Yiyang promised Haotingjun and Fang Zhongyu to take any birds and beasts in the Yijia beast shop in the future, and they would not receive a penny.
Hating-kun was so happy that he drank a lot of wine, got drunk, and lay down in the guest room of Tengyi Pavilion in the afternoon. Fang Zhongyu didn't seem to appreciate it, his expression was flat, and he drank less wine.
