Chapter Twenty-Four: The Contest in the Dark

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is here, and the excitement of the festival spreads to every corner of Kyoto.

"It is said that His Royal Highness King Wei will also come that day."

"King Wei? His Royal Highness the King of Wei who bought his bones? ”

"Of course!"

"If you can become a guest of His Royal Highness the Prince, then you will be the protégé of the Son of Heaven in the future, and that will be called a step to the sky."

"Huh!"

Everyone suddenly burst into a burst of tacit laughter.

In the attic room, the open window was closed at random, and the corners of the mouth of the person standing by the window were slightly hooked upward, and his naturally thin lips made him look a little ruthless.

"Your Highness."

There was a person standing behind the man, and those people downstairs thought that they were talking in a very small voice, and to the ears of those who had martial arts, the voice was clear as if people were talking next to them.

"So what His Highness thinks in the hearts of everyone? A thousand dollars buy bones, a good gold buys bones. The man was dressed in a blue robe, and the lower body was wearing a long gown of the same color, except for a bright yellow jade ornament hanging from his waist, which showed his dignity.

"Your Highness, they are just some fools, and they are also talking about some small-hearted stupid things." The subordinates looked at the back of their master and said.

"It doesn't matter, no matter what they say, His Highness won't even have such a little measure." The man in blue said.

The person behind him suddenly stopped talking.

The blue-robed man had a smile on the corner of his mouth, the smile did not reach the bottom of his eyes, and his eyes were indifferent.

"Tomorrow is the Shangsi Festival, how about you prepare for things?" The blue-robed man turned and sat down, the expression on his face already recovering his usual peace.

"Your Highness, rest assured, everything is ready."

When the man's subordinates heard this, they immediately replied respectfully, His Highness is really like a god, and everything is expected by His Highness.

"My good third brother, this time let the eldest brother see how much gold you are going to use to buy wind bones." The blue-robed man almost muttered.

***

"My good big brother must be waiting to see the third brother's joke now, hehe!" The man who spoke was dressed in red, and his smile was wanton and flamboyant.

"The master is wise!"

"Let the eldest brother and the third brother fight well, just to make the dragon and phoenix fight more exciting." The man in red laughed. As he spoke, he touched his eyebrows slightly, "Don't say it, thinking about it like this, maybe this is the idea in my father's heart." ”

The more the man in red thought about it, the more it became. Immediately he burst out laughing, with incomparable arrogance in his laughter.

"Your Highness, now that the news has spread outside, we must take care of it." The gray-bearded old man hurriedly walked in, his face ruddy. I don't see old age at all.

"Old Hu, don't worry, say something slowly." The man in white was holding a book in his hand and was seeing the highlights, when he heard the movement, he looked at the old man who broke into the house, and waved his hand to the guards who stopped at the door to retreat.

Hu Lao wanted to come, but the guards couldn't stop him at all, and they didn't dare to really stop him.

Hu Lao is a great sage that His Royal Highness finally invited, if he really bumps into it, His Royal Highness will not be distressed to death.

The guards exchanged a look that understood each other, and every time they saw Hu Lao come to see His Highness. The people on duty only symbolically blocked the old man and let the old man in.

"Your Highness, how can you still watch it." When Hu Lao saw the scroll in the man's hand, he met his gentle eyes, and suddenly the words of reproach were completely speechless, and his tone was worried.

His Royal Highness is so good and has such a gentle temperament, how can there be so many brothers with wolf ambitions, and his Royal Highness should obviously be the most worry-free person in the world.

"Your Highness, you don't know what is being said about you outside. They said that you were fake Qinggao, that you were just buying bones for showmanship, and that you ...... "Boss Hu has a tendency to keep chattering."

The expression on His Royal Highness in White was always gentle, and he listened quietly to Hu Lao's words. There was no impatience in the slightest.

Hu Lao looked at the gentle appearance of the person in front of him, he had been in the palace for so long, and he had never seen his Royal Highness lose his temper, Hu Lao doubted that his Royal Highness was born with a good temperament, and he would never be angry.

"Old Hu. What everyone said is not wrong, I did spend a thousand gold, and invited you, a great sage, back, and I can listen to Hu Lao's lectures every day, not to say that it is a thousand gold, it is ten thousand gold, and I am willing to scatter all my family wealth. His Highness in white said with a smile.

Hu Lao couldn't laugh, he looked at His Royal Highness with burning eyes, and finally made up some kind of determination.

His Highness is easy to bully, and he wants them to know that not all the people around His Highness are easy to bully.

Hu Lao glanced at the books on the table, all of them were travelogues and local chronicles, which showed that His Royal Highness's heart really wanted to indulge in the landscape, but unfortunately, as a child of the Heavenly Family, His Royal Highness didn't understand, and retreating was sometimes a dead end.

"Your Highness, outsiders don't know, the old man understands in his heart, if it weren't for His Royal Highness, the old man would have accompanied his wife a long time ago, His Royal Highness's kindness to the old man, the old man is inscribed."

Hu Lao said very sincerely, and after making up his mind, there was no longer any hesitation in his heart.

"Your Highness, you like to read, in fact, history books are also very interesting to read." Hu Lao said slowly.

His Royal Highness in White seemed to be helplessly connived, and could only listen to Hu Lao tell him about the history books.

The rumors spread much faster than he expected, it seems that in addition to his good eldest brother, I'm afraid the second brother has not helped less, it's really good!

"Look over there, what are they doing?" Mu Sifeng looked at the people gathered not far away, his eyes were full of curiosity.

"Let's go over and see." Mu Si is far away.

The red spots on Mu Sifeng's face have been cured, and the toxins in his body have been removed, and after recuperating for a period of time, he is finally able to be like an ordinary girl, and he doesn't have to take it with him when he goes out at any time.

Mu Siyuan has completely transformed into a twenty-four filial brother, and he is completely a sister who can do whatever she wants, as long as her sister is happy.

"This scene is so familiar." Du Ping touched his chin and looked at the scene of Mu Sifeng and Mu Siyuan getting along.

Jiang Zhou nodded, very agreeing.

"Oh, I thought of it!"

Du Ping suddenly stopped, exclaimed, and turned his head to look at Song Wan'er and Song Yun, with a smile in his eyes.

"I said it looked so familiar, I had seen it." Du Pingdao, looking at Song Wan'er, he almost forgot that Wan'er's sister still had such a soft and innocent time.

"Brother Du, I have a newly developed good thing here, do you want to taste it." Song Wan'er said with a smile.

Du Ping took a few steps out, "I'll also go and see what's going on in front of me." ”

Song Yun looked at Song Wan'er's figure, and only felt that her sister's threatening appearance was so cute.

Sister control!

Jiang Zhou shook his head secretly, thinking of Song Yun's other sister, and he didn't know what his fiancée was doing, did he miss him. (To be continued.) )
