7. Fog
Murong Qiu tossed and turned in the middle of the night and couldn't sleep, so he had to get up and take a walk in the imperial garden. He felt that his recent form was not right, but he didn't know who to talk to. Bi Guichen was imprisoned in the prison was something he thought about for a long time before he remembered, and for a moment he almost forgot why she was imprisoned in the prison, and later realized that it was a decision he made subconsciously. He wanted to protect her.
He felt that what he had thought before going down the mountain was too naΓ―ve. For example, people who cultivate immortals are not easy to be hurt by others, for example, demons are always afraid of them, such as the people he brought into the palace, no one will doubt them. The last one is the self-thought that he regrets the most, and the few days of whirling around the court made him understand that there are many people who know Bi Guichen's identity.
"Why doesn't the third brother sleep?"
The sudden sound still frightened Murong Qiu, this was one of the things he thought he had failed. This big brother of his own is not simple.
"I can't sleep, I want to go and see Miss Bi in the prison." The news of him putting people in prison was spread in the daytime, and he had nothing to hide.
"Third brother, you are just too serious, since she is your friend, you don't have to pay too much attention to what she says." The eldest prince Ren Jintang interceded for Bi Guichen, "After all, she is a famous person in the world, although there are rumors of what she has done outside, but before there is conclusive evidence, it cannot be arbitrary." β
Murong Qiu sneered in his heart, this is too high-sounding, his father was killed, that person is the legendary murderer, but the person in front of him said that there is no evidence and cannot be convicted. He looks very generous.
"She despises the royal family, and she deserves to be locked up for a few days. Although she is famous all over the world, she is a citizen of the Night Country after all, and she will be taught a lesson to make her remember it for a long time. Murong Qiu replied politely, and his words were warnings, warning Ren Jintang that the other party was a world-famous god operator, who was concerned by tens of thousands of people, even if he was locked up in prison, there could be no mistake. Or it was extremely stupid to put her in prison to hide people's eyes and ears in the first place. He underestimated his opponent and suffered in vain.
Ren Jintang didn't seem to understand what he was saying, and smiled, "When you left home, my father was very sad, we have played since we were children, and we have never been apart for so long, have you never thought of coming back?" β
This was said sadly, Murong Qiu intuitively felt that the eldest brother was sincere when he said this, so what was wrong with him? "Everyone pursues different things, I really don't adapt to the worldly life, if it weren't for the death of my father, I wouldn't have stepped into the palace again."
"The friendship we grew up with since childhood......"
"Brother Huang, life is only a few decades, and gathering and dispersing come and go quickly."
"Yes, just a few decades ......" Ren Jintang sighed, "I'll go back to sleep first, and you can rest early." He walked back and turned back, "By the way, Miss Bi has a special identity, and the court is not peaceful." The matter of my father has not yet been decided, but many people know that you have imprisoned her in prison, so they temporarily wronged her to stay in prison for a few days, and then let her out after you find out the truth. Tell the cell boss to treat her well, she is our honored guest. After speaking, he left without waiting for Murong Qiu to reply.
Murong Qiu was stunned in place, he felt that he had been tricked, but how? The day before yesterday, before he imprisoned Bi Guichen in the prison, someone asked his guards at the gate of his palace about her, and although he said it quietly, he could hear it. They talked about the rumors of the rivers and lakes as if they were chatting, saying that the sins of Bi Gui were spread everywhere outside, and that the women he brought into the palace were unknown. He thought that someone in the palace was starting to be suspicious, so he found an excuse to put Bi Guichen in prison. Later, his consciousness was a little blurred, and he only thought that he had been too worried and tired recently, so he slept during the day, so he couldn't sleep at night.
Something must have happened, he thought, it must be directed at himself. He thought that he was a cultivator of immortals, and it was difficult for anyone in the world to hurt him. But it turned out that this was not the case. Although his inner pill is about to be formed, it is still early to leave the human body, so many medicines in the human world are useful to him, such as ecstasy.
It would be nice if Lin Ze was here, he must know this. It occurred to him that he hadn't seen his two juniors in a while. He put Bi Guichen in the prison in the morning, and the two junior disciples came to him in the morning to inquire. He slept in the afternoon, and the juniors didn't show up until the evening, could something have happened? He was shocked and hurriedly walked to the residence of the two junior brothers.
The two junior brothers lived in the courtyard next to him, which was a side courtyard of his dormitory, which was very quiet. He breathed a sigh of relief when he walked into the courtyard when the lights were still on in the main house. The juniors must still be angry with him, so they didn't eat dinner with him.
"Senior brother, have you slept?" He knocked on the door.
"Senior brother, it's going to sleep." Lin Ze replied inside.
"Where's Mu Ran?"
"Senior Brother Mu Ran is tired from practicing after dinner, and he has already rested."
"That'...... Well, you also rest early. Murong Qiu sighed, not to mention that he had fallen into other people's traps, and he also had an estrangement with his junior disciples, and he didn't know how to remedy it. You get up in the morning and help me go see Bi Guichen, I don't know what happened to her inside. β
"Senior brother, ......" Lin Ze hesitated a little, he clearly heard the regret and sigh in his senior brother's words.
"I'll find a way to protect her, but now it seems that this palace is really unfathomable, you have to be careful." After Murong Qiu finished speaking, he turned around and left.
Lin Ze sat on the bed and was stunned, listening to his senior brother's words, he seemed to really lock her up to protect Bi Guichen, but who instructed Bi Guichen's injuries?
Lin Ze decided to ignore the mess that couldn't be sorted out for now, and he continued what he hadn't done just now, dispensing medicine for Bi Guichen. She was too badly injured to apply it externally. He opened the medical book and studied it carefully, thinking that since Murong Qiu had instructed him to visit early in the morning, it should be no problem to bring some internal medicine.
He looked carefully, and thought about how to fool the hospital to get medicine for him, but he didn't notice anything flashing outside the window. In a moment, there was a knock on the door outside.
"Who?" He put down his book and asked softly.
No one answered.
Of course, he didn't think that he had heard it wrong, the immortal cultivators were deaf and clear-sighted, and even the smallest voices could hear it. If the person outside the door doesn't answer, there must be a problem. He picked up his sword against the head of the bed and held his breath.
Knock knock! Two more times.
"Who's knocking on the door?"
Lin Ze asked with words in his mouth, but his footsteps quietly moved to the window, trying to see clearly what was outside the door from the afterglow of the window. Although he didn't answer, he sensed that the person who knocked on the door was standing in the doorway, or that the thing that knocked on the door was not a person at all.
