Chapter 296: The Scorpion's Doubts
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in Shenhuang's mind, and he remembered that when he took the Xuanwu essence blood, wasn't the man he cooperated with the person in the painting, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but raise a smile: "It turned out to be a woman!"
"How? Shenhuang, do you want to accept the task, she is now in the Lan Qi Kingdom of the secular world, take the pill, and run to kill her, just like a flip, it is estimated that you don't need a day's effort, you can get this little pill. It's easier than any task ever before! The Demon King continued to tempt.
"Two pills, two boxes of oracle bone stones!" Shenhuang said coldly.
The demon king's face changed, he was really a greedy vampire, he looked up at the god phoenix and said, "This price seems to be a little expensive, obviously a very simple task."
"It doesn't matter if it's easy or not, it's important to you, isn't it? Since it is important, it must have an important price. Shenhuang said calmly.
"Okay, two pills, two boxes of oracle bone stones. Take your deposit away! The demon king said with a wave of his long sleeves, and the brocade box containing the pill automatically flew towards the divine phoenix.
Shenhuang steadily caught the brocade box thrown over, and said with a slight smile: "Thank you!" After speaking, he turned around and was about to leave, walked two steps, suddenly thought of something, turned his head and asked coldly, "I heard that you want to use Leng Aohan's child to break the seal?"
"Hehehehe, what's the matter, Shenhuang wants to help that filial piety intercede? The god phoenix I know is not so kind! The demon king smiled lightly and said, "Those are all things that the elders think about themselves, how unbearable can a filial son be?" Can you break the seal of 10,000 years? Oh, I've already rebuked them, no one will catch that kid anymore, don't worry. Moreover, looking at the appearance of the seal, it should be lifted by itself, and I can still afford to wait for this time. ”
Is the seal really about to be lifted? So where are you, Shenfeng, have you come back? Shenhuang didn't know how he got out of the seal, and his mind was full of the extremely beautiful woman with long black hair that reached his knees and eyes as bright as stars. The Divine Phoenix looked up at the sky. Feeling that glimmer of warm sunshine, the picture that he had recalled countless times and had become his spiritual motivation flashed in his mind, 'That extremely beautiful woman, with her green jade hand, caressed herself who was only a three-year-old child at that time, and said to herself kindly, I will definitely come back, wait for me to come back. Then the woman's side became transparent, and finally disappeared in front of her. A happy smile rose at the corner of Shenhuang's mouth, and he said to himself, "Shenfeng." I've grown up. It's grown to match you. Come back soon! I've been waiting for you, and I've been doing my best for you to come back! He looked down at the elixir in his hand, no matter what. He must recover his strength before Shenfeng returns, so he swallowed the gray pill without hesitation.
In the middle of the night, the scorpion woke up again from the dream that he had to do every day, looked up at the window, the sky was already a little bright, and it was not long before it was time to get up and practice, and he had no intention of sleeping again. The scorpion got up, put on his dress, and shouted to the maid guarding the door: "Xiaoting!"
"Princess, are you up? I'm going to help you get the washing water. Xiaoting immediately saluted in a panic. Usually the scorpions have to get up half an hour later, so nothing is ready yet. Xiaoting was a little caught off guard.
"Xiaoting, how many years have you been in the palace?" The scorpion asked lightly.
"Back to the princess, it's been two years!" Xiaoting replied honestly.
"It's only been two years!" The scorpion looked at the servant girl in front of him with some disappointment, and muttered in his heart, what can I know in two years.
In order to investigate the affairs of Huaqing Palace ten years ago, the scorpion deliberately went to the maidservant house to find the mother and maidservant girl who were on an errand in Huaqing Palace, who knows, Concubine Feng likes to be quiet, there are very few maidservants and mothers in Huaqing Palace, and the few maids and mothers are either dead or have been out of the palace and cannot be found, even the guards who worked in Huaqing Palace back then, none of them can be found, which makes Concubine Feng's death once again shrouded in a layer of fog. The only maid related to Huaqing Palace is the maid named Xiaoting who is now standing in front of her, she is responsible for the daily cleaning of Huaqing Palace, so the scorpion transferred this little maid to her side, but now it seems that this maid is estimated to be of great help to herself.
"You can accompany me to the room where my mother lived." The scorpion said lightly and walked out of the house.
"Yes, princess!" Xiao Ting respectfully followed behind the scorpion and walked towards Concubine Feng's room.
Fengfei's room is a suite layout, one inside is a bedroom, like all bedrooms, there are wardrobes, carved red lacquer beds, pink Luo tents, washstands, palace lamp stands, dressers, etc., the outer room is also the same as the general room, with a folding screen style into two, there is a low platform in the middle, there is a wide couch and a coffee table with the height of the couch, the outer room is a mahogany table and stool, and there are some potted calligraphy and paintings and other decorations.
When the scorpion walked into Concubine Feng's room, he suddenly had a sense of familiarity, and looked at everything carefully step by step. Xiaoting saw the scorpion looking at the room so seriously, she was very proud, this room has always been in charge of her care, she cleans the house every day, spotless, and often prunes and takes care of potted plants, opens the window for ventilation, and dries the quilt, so that this room does not feel like no one has lived for a long time.
"These potted plants were all left by Concubine Feng back then, and they are still vibrant after more than ten years!" Xiaoting deliberately worked hard to introduce.
After being reminded by Xiaoting, the scorpion looked at the potted plant, and suddenly an impression flashed in his mind, and the scorpion thoughtfully pointed to a green green pine potted plant and said, "No, it should be a red flower here." ”
"Princess, when I was in charge of this room just now, just these potted plants, the mother in charge also specially explained that these are the plants that Concubine Feng loved before her death, and they must be taken care of, and the slave and maid dare not change them without authorization" When the crab heard the scorpion's words, he immediately knelt down in fright and clarified. "Get up, I don't blame you!" The scorpion smiled gently at Xiaoting and said lightly.
Although the scorpion does not blame her, Xiaoting is still a little afraid in her heart, after all, any small thing in the palace may kill a lowly maid like her. So, she timidly closed her mouth and no longer dared to sell her work blindly.
The folding screen is closed at this time, the scorpion sees the couch at a glance, looking at the couch, the scorpion's eyes become gentle, and a beautiful woman lying on the couch holding a book, a sleeping little girl in her arms flashes in her mind, the feeling is particularly real, as if she really has experienced it, and feels in her heart, slowly walks up the steps, lies sideways on the couch, closes her eyes and enjoys the warmth that belongs to you and has nothing to do with herself. After a while, the scorpion opened his eyes and looked at the coffee table, and another picture appeared in his mind, and he couldn't help but look at Xiaoting and ask, "I remember that there is an incense burner on it."
"Back to the princess, the slave maid really hasn't seen any incense burner, even if she borrows a hundred guts from the slave maid, the slave and maid don't dare to touch the things of Concubine Feng!" Xiao Ting said with an aggrieved face, she was so anxious that she was about to cry.
Looking at Xiaoting's appearance, it doesn't look like she is lying, what happened to the business, was Lan Qixin'er's memory wrong, or someone moved something here afterwards. If you move the things here, why do you have so many valuable things in it, calligraphy and paintings of celebrities, and the precious gold and silver jewelry on the dresser, but they don't move at all, but they want to take away the pot of red flowers and an incense burner that feels very ordinary? The scorpion had a feeling that if he solved this mystery, he would be close to the cause of Concubine Feng's death.
"Xiaoting, help me prepare my washing things!" The scorpion gave a faint order, then didn't say anything, and walked out of Concubine Feng's room directly.
Xiao Ting breathed a sigh of relief at this time, she was really frightened just now, but a trace of doubt ignited in her heart, is it really as the princess said that Concubine Feng's room changed a pot of flowers and lost an incense burner? However, when she took over the Huaqing Palace, the housekeeper's mother obviously explained to her, saying that Concubine Feng was the favorite concubine of the emperor's majesty, and everything in the Huaqing Palace was left by Concubine Feng before her death, and she couldn't move anything, so she had to cook well? However, these things are not something that her little maid can think about, she shook her head, and said in her heart, anyway, I didn't take it myself!
Today's scorpion, the heart is always entangled in the incense burner and safflower, no intention of cultivating, so an hour earlier than usual, out of the practice room, the clever Xiaoting now knows, prepare breakfast early, warm on the stove, see the scorpion came out, walked to the hall, and immediately served breakfast for the scorpion to enjoy.
The scorpion had no intention of eating breakfast, so she hurriedly ate two pastries, drank a mouthful of gruel, and walked out of Huaqing Palace, she wanted to ask if Concubine Feng had used the incense burner and saffron back then, or if it was really Lan Qixin'er's memory that was on business.
Rejecting Xiaoting's follow, the scorpion walked alone to the maidservant's house, and said in his heart, even if he had not worked as an errand in Huaqing Palace, such a conspicuous thing, as long as the mother who had entered Concubine Feng's room back then, should have some impressions.
Passing through the Purple Cloud Palace, the scorpion turned his head and glanced inside through the open door, but he didn't see Lan Daning's figure, and said in his heart that this kid must still be cultivating, smiled slightly, and continued to walk forward, and before he took a few steps, he heard someone behind him shouting very anxiously.
"Princess!" The scorpion turned its head and saw the crab running out of the Purple Cloud Palace out of breath.
The scorpion turned to look at the crab with a puzzled expression, and the crab gasped and said: "Prince Ning was called by the eldest prince and the second prince early this morning, and he hasn't come back yet, the slave is very worried, and he wanted to tell the princess, but Prince Ning explained before leaving, and he can't tell you at this time, so"
The scorpion's face sank suddenly, and he asked, "Where did the eldest prince take Prince Ning?" You lead the way! ”
"It should be the eldest prince's practice room that they have always gone to, and the slave will show you the way!" Crab said respectfully.
