Chapter 244: Treasure Hunting

The black-clothed man stood in the center of the stage with cold eyes, the old man of the Jin family nodded to the side with a smile, and immediately someone ran to the back, and after a while, a person approached with a golden box, and everyone's breathing stopped for a moment.

Qi Zimin's eyes were also firmly fixed on the box, and the princess whispered to the side: "Old Man Jin really took out the purple jade snow lotus like this?" Wouldn't it be too fast? In short, she always felt that it would not be so simple.

"Let's see how others react." For now, this can only be the case, the princess nodded and said unintentionally: "If someone goes up to grab the box now, I'm afraid everyone will be in a mess." ”

Qi Zimin thought about that scene, although he could also be one of them, he still thought it was funny and laughed.

At this time, the people of the Jin family were ready, and the old man Jin glanced at the bottom kindly, coughed twice, and said, "Open the box." ”

The person holding the box opened the box very obediently, and the purple jade snow lotus without any suspense suddenly appeared in front of everyone, and the people on the left and right looked at the box with wide eyes, first a light flashed, and sure enough, there were purple blooming flowers on the lotus plate in the middle of the box. The color is bright, and the crystal clear snow lotus seems to light up the surrounding sky, probably because of the psychological effect, everyone feels that the moment the purple jade snow lotus appears, their spirits are much better.

Snow lotus is not like an ordinary lotus flower, the petals have seven petals, and the layers intersect correspondingly, and there is no flaw at all. The lotus plate at the bottom is completely made of ice, vivid, and the snow lotus sways and sits on the lotus plate, like a beautiful woman swaying, and like an unattainable fairy, far away.

While the princess whispered to Qi Zimin, she praised Snow Lotus for really living up to her reputation, and at the same time glanced at everyone around her who was obsessed, and said strangely: "Such a good thing is revealed to the world, and I don't know what the Jin family thinks." ”

Qi Zimin was completely focused on the snow lotus, and he didn't even pay attention to what the old man of the Jin family was saying. At this time, the princess seemed to be very puzzled. He couldn't think of why.

"Thank you for your appreciation, you have come to my Jin family thousands of miles away, and today I will bring out this world-famous strange flower for everyone to see, and it is not in vain that you have taken care of the Jin family for decades. Today is the old man's birthday banquet. The Jin family still has something to announce - "Probably the next generation of the heir of the Jin family." According to the old man's instructions, he continued: "The Jin family has decided to sacrifice this plate of purple jade snow lotus. Three days later, he was sent to the capital to treat His Royal Highness the Prince, thanking the emperor for his grace and looking forward to the sun and moon in the calendar. Life with the sky. After speaking, he bowed deeply in the direction of the imperial city.

Wow –

Everyone exploded because of this news, and everyone was talking about it one after another, whether it was talking about His Royal Highness the Prince's illness, or talking about the generosity of the Jin family, or what kind of ghost idea the Jin family was secretly playing...... The noisy voice exploded in the ears of the princess and Qi Zimin, and they didn't pay attention to what the Jin family explained later, the two glanced at each other, and they both saw disbelief in their respective eyes.

"That's not true, right?" The princess muttered to herself: "It is impossible for the Jin family to suddenly take refuge in the Great Li Dynasty, is there something hidden in it?" ”

Qi Zimin was also deeply skeptical, but he didn't care much about this kind of thing compared to the princess, and after looking down, he raised his head and said, "Interesting!" ”

The princess glanced at Qi Zimin, but he smiled mockingly at the old man of the Jin family, Zhang, and the son of the Jin family, who was talking boastfully, and said, "They have a big idea, I'm afraid things are not so simple." ”

"What do you mean?" The princess said.

"When did the Jin family become so generous, it must be because of the unavoidable willingness to hand over the purple jade snow lotus that can come back to life, but it doesn't matter if it is dedicated to the Great Calendar or the Mu country, it makes no difference to the Jin family, why not the Mu country?" The princess was a little funny when she heard this, Qi Zimin's current situation is of course to say that Mu Guo is good, but it doesn't matter in any aspect that the Great Li Dynasty is very capable, just looking at what she can see in front of her, she was about to persuade her with good words, and she heard him say again: "I look at the Jin family as if they are avoiding trouble, what makes them so afraid?" ”

The princess stopped the cranky thoughts in her heart, looked ahead, and said thoughtfully: "Could it be that the Jin family leaked the news and got into trouble again, because they can't hide the purple jade snow lotus, so it is better to take it out and share it with everyone, since it is for the calendar, it must have something to do with the affairs of the court of the calendar, the Jin family is in a hurry to get rid of it, and they must want to cause trouble." ”

"This is just one of them, and the second is that the prince is no longer in the calendar now, and the prince's illness is almost a secret, how did the Jin family know? What good is it for them to make it public? Qi Zimin couldn't figure it out, so he simply didn't think about it, and said bluntly: "Anyway, it's going to be robbed today, no matter what they pay attention to, the most important thing is for us to get Snow Lotus." ”

The princess nodded, and the two of them glanced at the noisy surroundings and quietly went from behind to a quiet place.

Qi Zimin said: "I'll do it first later, and I'll lure the guards away, and you take the opportunity to take Snow Lotus over." ”

"Yes." The princess nodded, hesitating, "But there are so many people that we can go out?" ”

"Don't worry, although there are many masters, we have secret medicine, and we will never miss it." Qi Zimin said: "When the time comes, whether it is General Qi or the crown prince, they will come to Mu to intercede with me, and I can't bear it a little when I think of such a scene." ”

The princess's face changed for a moment, and she immediately wanted to persuade her, but when she thought of Qi Zimin's temper, she still lowered her head sullenly. Qi Zimin patted the princess's head: "I promise you, as soon as this matter is over, I will wander the world with you and never come back." ”

Unexpectedly, he still remembered her wish, and the princess threw herself into Qi Zimin's arms very happily and nodded vigorously.

It was a beautiful day, but I heard a delicate voice ringing in my ears: "The two of you hug and hug each other in broad daylight, it's really courageous, aren't you afraid of being discovered?" ”

The princess and Qi Zimin immediately separated. Turning his head to look at the person behind him who didn't know how long he had been hiding in the tree and eavesdropping, Qi Zimin's face was very ugly, and he asked sharply, "How much have you heard?" ”

The man jumped down from the tree and came over, and said, "I have heard everything that should have been heard." ”

The princess looked at Qi Zimin, if she hadn't known that this person was a man disguised as a woman, she might not have doubted that there was such a handsome man in the world. It's just that I don't know why, but the more the princess looks at this person, the more she feels as if she has seen it somewhere.

Qi Zimin's lungs exploded, and he sneered twice: "I don't know what Your Excellency has been mysterious all along, what do you want to do?" What is the purpose of tracking us? ”

The man covered his mouth weakly with a handkerchief and coughed, glanced around and said, "Let's cooperate." ”

Qi Zimin raised his eyebrows. The princess looked at the tall beauty even more bewildered.

"Neurotic!" Sure enough, Qi Zimin didn't like this person very much. Not only is he not optimistic about people's sneaky behavior, but there is also an inexplicable feeling of being seen through that makes him very uncomfortable, especially when the two of them were talking, they didn't find anyone eavesdropping, which made Qi Zimin feel very ashamed. To know. Since disappearing for three years back. Qi Zimin is very confident, and many people can't beat him. An inconspicuous person can pose a threat to him, how angry he is in his heart.

Probably this person is also coming towards Snow Lotus, Qi Zimin doesn't want to stay with this neurotic at all. said indifferently: "We each rely on our abilities, and no one should hinder anyone." "Pulling the princess is like leaving.

He can be regarded as taking a step back and opening up the sky, and he doesn't want to cause trouble in vain, but some people are just very uninteresting.

No one lazily stretched their waists and leaned loosely against the tree: "You really don't want to ally with me?" ”

"Not interested." Qi Zimin strengthened his tone and said warningly: "You'd better not follow us in the future, otherwise I'm welcome." ”

"Huh." The man glanced at Qi Zimin obliquely, the contempt in his eyes was quite clear, and the princess suddenly recognized who this person was.

When the two of them were far enough away from the man, the princess looked at her feet and said, "Do you think the man is familiar?" ”

Qi Zimin stopped: "You also feel this way?" Where did I always feel like I had seen him? ”

It seems that she is not the only one who feels this way, judging from the things before and after, it is that person who should not be wrong. The princess breathed a sigh of relief, "Do you remember that your eldest brother has a guard by his side, also called Lord Zhou?" ”

"Yes." Qi Zimin looked at the princess, "Does it have anything to do with him?" ”

The princess nodded, "There is a very handsome man next to Lord Zhou, you should still have an impression." ”

Qi Zimin thought for a moment and said, "I do think of a person when I hear you say this, is it ......" He suddenly stopped and turned to look back, where was there still the shadow of that person in the big tree.

The corners of Qi Zimin's mouth twitched and said: "Although I have always felt that the relationship between Lord Zhou and that person is unclear, and that person is always mysterious, but I never thought of such a neuropathy." ”

Listening to this tone, she is still very unoptimistic about this person, but the princess thinks that this person is really capable, and because she has a good relationship with Zhang Xiaoman, she also knows a little bit of a lot of interesting facts about this person, now is not the time to talk about this, the princess said: "Since he is here, does that mean that they know about us?" ”

"It's okay to know." Qi Zimin said indifferently: "Anyway, someone must have guessed what I was going to do, a little earlier and a little later is not within the range of that person's prediction, it's not a big deal, we will go back tonight with the purple jade snow lotus, and we can understand the affairs of Mu Guo faster, and we can leave with confidence." ”

"Yes." The princess sighed, she always felt that she couldn't let go of her heart, and told again, "No matter what it is, only you are the most important, you have to be careful." ”

Qi Zimin smiled and touched the princess's head: "I know, don't worry, I'll be fine." ”

The two hugged again, bowed their heads and exchanged a few words, and they were ready to go their separate ways. It's just that before they could go against each other, the sound of uproar and the sound of fighting came from the front at the same time, and the princess and Qi Zimin almost immediately thought that the purple jade snow lotus had been stolen, and hurriedly ran over together, it was really a good and not bad spirit, above the high hall, between the curtains, where was there the shadow of the purple jade snow lotus.

Qi Zimin scolded in a low voice, feeling very unhappy.

The princess didn't know why Qi Zimin was so angry, she really just thought that the two of them were out to have fun at first, but now seeing Qi Zimin's appearance, it seems that she had planned to do this for a long time, and she saw someone under her eyes that she was the first to go, and it was strange not to be angry.

Inexplicably, she put down a big stone in her heart, and the princess said happily: "Don't be angry, it seems that we have no fate with Snow Lotus." ”

Qi Zimin couldn't believe it and shouted, "Are you kidding me? It's a medicine that can bring the dead back to life, and you don't know how much energy I put into getting the snow lotus...... Forget it, I don't blame you for this, why should I take my anger out on you. Let's go, go back. ”

The princess was frightened by Qi Zimin's anger, and now she didn't dare to say a word, so she obediently followed behind Qi Zimin.

But when the two of them were about to leave the gate of the Jin family, a fragrant figure suddenly flashed on the right, and Qi Zimin hurriedly chased after him without pausing, and the princess was stunned for a moment and hurriedly followed.

Arrived at the strange grove of the Jin family again, the princess ran out of breath with Qi Zimin, and there was a slight sound in front of her, Qi Zimin didn't want to chase after him again, the princess quickly grabbed his hand and stopped him, "You don't know who it is, you panic and start chasing, what if that person deliberately leads you over with bad intentions?" ”

"That's him!" Qi Zimin said with great certainty: "I want to see what tricks he wants to play after he has gotten the snow lotus?" ”

Shake off the princess's hand Qi Zimin walked forward, the princess really didn't have the strength to chase, holding her knees with both hands and panting in place, Qi Zimin's body suddenly stopped in front, looked back at the princess, he ran back and squatted down in front of the princess, and said, "Come up, I'll carry you on my back." ”

"No, no...... I ......" The princess was almost speechless, and she choked on saliva when she was in a hurry, and then she was carried on her back by Qi Zimin involuntarily, and he said in disgust, "Why is it so light, like no one has given you food?" I want to eat more in the future, I can't hold you, I prefer you to have a little more meat. ”

Almost at the same time, the princess's tears wet Qi Zimin's shoulders, and she rested her head on the side of his neck, her breath filled with his smell, even if she was to die nowβ€”this life was worth it.

The princess choked up and wanted to say something, but she just kissed Qi Zimin's ear: "I love you." (To be continued......)
