CHAPTER XXXVIII
"Well, I'll teach you a few times, right?" Pang Ruolan sat down at the table with a big grin, poured herself a cup of tea, and took a sip, only to find that the tea was brewed in cold water.
"This song is soft and ethereal, and when the night is quiet, the dance is better and can better highlight the artistic conception in the song." The man laughed.
"Oh, I'm lucky to have met you, yes, this piece will be played at night with a sky full of stars." Pang Ruolan smiled at the cold wind, and her eyes flashed with approval.
"I already know this tune, it will not be inferior to your playing, Miss can go and prepare for other things, but ...... If you play elsewhere, you will need an appearance fee, which is not a decimal. "Cold air ducts.
"Well, I see, thank you." Pang Ruolan Xinfu: It seems that this male piano attainment is not below me, and with his understanding of the tune, he can be regarded as my bosom friend.
Pang Ruolan closed the door, came to the hall, and found **, "This is 70 taels of silver, in the future, let the guy prepare hot water for the cold wind boy every day, and let the guests drink cold tea is also your hospitality here?" After a pause, Pang Ruolan said again: "Tomorrow night, when the sky is dark, let the cold wind boy bring the guzheng to the round altar to play a song." ā
"Yes, yes, miss, don't worry! Guaranteed not to delay you! ** was overjoyed and quickly put the silver into his arms.
Out of the brothel, Pang Ruolan came to the cloth shop to order a set of clothes, and then went to the roadside masonry to explain, gave some money, and returned to the inn.
"Huh, you're back? How? Perfectly prepared? Wearing a light blue gold silk Hunan embroidered flower skirt, Shenyun sat at the round table, playing with his hair, his eyes were like stars, and he chuckled sideways.
"Well, IāI'm not done yet, I'll go out tomorrow morning, and I'll see you at the altar in the evening." Pang Ruolan smiled helplessly.
"......" suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, there was no tea in the cup, just transparent clear water, with the breathing of the person who handed the cup moved slightly, raising his eyes, Pang Ruolan looked at Xuantian's gentle eyes.
"Thank you." Taking the teacup, Pang Ruolan took a sip, although the water was cold, but her heart felt warm.
The three of them didn't say anything all night, Pang Ruolan still slept on the ground, looking at the two figures on the bed, Pang Ruolan slowly closed her eyes.
On the other side, in the Imperial City Palace, which covers an extremely wide area, there are all kinds of precious porcelain, rare antiques, gold and jade carved dragon chairs in the luxurious palace, a middle-aged woman is dressed in bright yellow dragon and phoenix silk clothes, her face is like frost, and she is not angry and arrogant.
"Isn't there an eyebrow yet? Lan'er is the only bloodline of the prince, if you can't find it, you won't come back to see me. The middle-aged woman suddenly smiled and said, "Someone! Put the fire in the altar of the serpent. ā
"Ahh The black-clothed man kneeling with His Highness looked panicked, his lips trembled, and he only shouted "Ah" and was so frightened that he could no longer speak.
"The minister begs the king to let the Hellfire make meritorious service and give him a chance." The black-clothed woman led by knelt down and slammed her head on the ground, and a "bang" echoed in the hall, and it seemed that the woman was extremely hard.
"Hmph, then break her hamstrings." The middle-aged woman chuckled.
"Thank you for the grace of the king, the minister on behalf of the shadow hides and bows to the king, long live the king, long live the king." With the sound of the black-clothed woman kowtowing at the head, the hall echoed with the ** sound of the dark fire being picked off by the guards.
"I'm tired, stand down." A middle-aged woman's slightly tired voice came from inside the hall.
"Subordinates obey."
"The ministers are leaving."
Out of the imperial court, the black-clothed woman led by her glanced at her subordinates, and the hell fire that had just broken her tendons in the hall was carried away by everyone.
"Bao'er Pavilion." Pang Ruoyitian, who had withdrawn from the hall together, spit out a few words softly and left quickly.
"Oops, you haven't come to see me in a long time!"
"You're here!"
"Miss, the water sleeves miss you to death."
"Little chair, quickly take this young lady to find the young lady Qingling!" The male bustard smiled as he shook the gold in his hand.
The inside and outside of Bao'er Pavilion are noisy and lively, and the business is endless.
In the night, a woman in black was escorted through the back door of Bao'er Pavilion into the secret courtyard behind the pavilion.
"Sit." The middle-aged woman in a gorgeous costume saw the man in black enter and poured her a cup of hot tea.
"The subordinates are ashamed to be kind to the prince, please punish the prince." The woman in black knelt down, her face ashamed.
"I don't blame you, in the past 10 years, you have done enough for this king, and this king is grateful." Pang Ruoyitian picked up the black-clothed woman who was kneeling on the ground, and turned around to hand her the hot tea, "Drink it while it's hot, this is the best Longjing in the year, the emperor gave it to me, thinking that you love tea, collect clean snow at the beginning of the year, and invite you to drink it today." ā
"Lord Wang......" The woman in black's eyes flickered, and the hand that took the teacup tightened.
Sighing, Pang Ruoyi said, "If it weren't for you, how could Lan'er have lived the life of an ordinary child since she was a child...... Although she has learned martial arts, she has not been forcibly trained to become a cold-blooded spy, and she still has the feelings of ordinary people and a fairly normal childhood. ā
Pulling the woman in black to sit down, Pang Ruoyitian said again: "As her mother, I can't stay by her side, and I can't even look at her a few more times...... What kind of prince is this king? But...... It's just a chess piece in her hand. ā
"Lord Wang......" The woman in black said hurriedly: "The prince endures the humiliation and burden, and the matter will definitely be done." ā
"The most important thing at the moment is to find Lan'er, 16 years ago, the king failed to protect her father, causing him to be calculated to death by the empress, and he has endured humiliation for many years, just hoping to avenge him one day." Pang Ruoyi said sadly: "Although she has been secretly supporting the three major martial arts families to compete with the imperial court, she has assassinated the martial arts alliance leader again and again, resulting in a stable situation in the court. 10 years ago, the plan was calculated in order to save Lan'er's life, because now except for the empress and the king, Pang Ruoqingyu and Pang Ruolan, there are no more royal relatives in the Pang Ruo Dynasty, and they are all assassinated by the empress...... If it weren't for Lan'er's wonderful roots and bones, who could be a chess piece and use me to contain them, I'm afraid that our mother and daughter would not be able to live to this day. ā
"Lord Wang, my subordinates must find Master Lan as soon as possible, since she disappeared, the eyeliner of the empress in the secluded mansion has been found out in the chaos, so she will only send someone to monitor her." The woman in black said.
"The empress sent people to spy on Lan'er several times, including the secret agents in the shadow hidden place, but they were all destroyed by the king's people pretending to be people from the three major families of martial arts...... 16 years have passed, and this king has always felt that his smile comes to mind from time to time, as if he first saw it. Lingering here all these years, paralyzing the empress, making her feel that this king is a person with a heart of flowers, and she no longer cares about Lan'er's father. But this king is so tired! Even if you find out that he was killed, you have to pretend not to know, haha, I'm so useless! Pang Ruoyitian's eyes were filled with tears, and his hands were forced, only to hear the "click", the teacup shattered, the porcelain slag pierced into the flesh, and the blood stained the tablecloth red.
"Lord Wang!" The woman in black immediately tore off a piece of cotton cloth and bandaged Pang Ruoyitian's wound.
"This king only hopes that Lan'er can live like an ordinary person and be at ease, just like her father had hoped." Sighing, Pang Ruoyitian said again: "Only when the surveillance agent sent by the empress dies or is injured, can she feel the powerful threat of the martial arts family, and will she pay attention to Lan'er, and the life of this king can be saved." ā
"Lord Wang, most of the people in Youfu are our people now, look, do you want Master Lan to know the real situation?"
"The time has not yet come, she has not received psychological training since she was a child, and she may not behave like it, don't move the empress's people in the secluded mansion, if there is anything you want the empress to know, tell her through the empress's people." After a pause, Pang Ruoyitian said again: "You are only responsible for protecting Lan'er's safety, don't act rashly until you have to." Don't interfere with her actions, let her do what she wants, and paralyze the empress. ā
Taking out a box of gold, Pang Ruoyitian sighed: "The hamstrings of the Hellfire have been broken, and she will not be able to complete the task in the future, the empress let her live better than death, this is for you to see in the shadow, I have arranged for the imperial doctor to treat her, and also arrange a place for her to live, this money is enough to hire someone to take care of her life for the rest of her life." ā
"The prince is gracious, and the shadow represents the shadow and thank you." The woman in black wanted to kneel down and buckle her head, but was stopped by Pang Ruoyitian, and a light flashed in her eyes.
"The empress unites with other countries, the situation of the Pang Ruo Dynasty is stable, and the underworld is probably helped by demons, regardless of martial arts in this world, is it true that the ancient rumors are not true? Otherwise, how could Lan'er's father practice the Flying Shadow Sword at a young age...... The people of the underworld are afraid that it is really not simple, although it is a remote and small country, but it can become a strong trend with all countries, in addition to the support of the Empress Pang Ruo, the whereabouts of the people of the underworld are secretive, self-sufficient, and rarely contact with other countries, I am afraid that there is really a secret...... It's just that no one has ever seen a monster, alas, it's just that this king didn't force Lan'er's father to tell him about his hometown in the underworld, and the day he first met him...... "Pang Ruoyitian seemed to fall into deep thought.
"The prince ......" hidden heart: When he first entered the shadow hidden place, if it wasn't for the prince's secret help, he was afraid that he would be assassinated by his companions, how could he have the majesty of leading the shadow hidden place today...... The empress never took the lives of her subordinates and courtiers seriously, and the prince valued love and righteousness, and took a lot of care for himself who existed like ants......
