Chapter 162: True and False Princesses
"Princess of Tianzhu Kingdom?" we were surprised. Tang Seng had never seen the princess, so he didn't know what he meant.
"Oh, princess?" Zhu Bajie twisted and covered his big mouth with the pig's paw, "How can I let you come to the inn to greet you in person, this place is small, if you publicize it, won't we enter the palace for Hajj?"
The princess did not speak, but tears were pouring out of her eyes.
After all, Tang Seng is a person who has seen the world, and he knows that the princess must have something important to ask for, so he quickly stopped the jokes of the apprentices.
The princess's eyes were lowered, and she said gloomily, "I am indeed a princess, but not the princess you have seen." ”
Zhu Bajie was stunned for a long time, "How many princesses are there in Tianzhu Kingdom?"
"That's it. Huo Shao next to him said.
"Then what does it mean that this princess is not another princess?" I was curious.
She suddenly seemed to be full of grievances and spoke eloquently.
She said that she was the real princess of Tianzhu Kingdom, five years ago, playing in the garden with the maid, suddenly a dark and strange wind rolled her up, she fainted, and when she woke up, she had fallen into an abandoned dry well, which was the back garden of the Huo family. This Huo family is a local nobleman, and it is thousands of miles away from the Tianzhu Kingdom.
She called herself the princess of Tianzhu Kingdom, naturally no one believed her, everyone thought she was crazy, only the young master of the Huo family thought that she was not an ordinary woman through her dress and demeanor, and quietly took her into the back garden, and secretly sent someone to Tianzhu Kingdom to inquire, after two months, the result of the inquiry was that the princess of Tianzhu Kingdom had never left Tianzhu Country at all.
She was dumbfounded, she didn't understand what was going on, and when she saw that no one would believe her anymore, she could only wash her face with tears and want to die.
Huo Shao felt that something was wrong, and asked in detail about the details of the palace, she knew everything, she knew that the emperor and queen of Tianzhu Kingdom were famous, and there was also a royal token - a string of fine beads and jade chains around her neck, which her parents had worn on her since she was a child, because it had been under the neckline, no one knew, and this became the only evidence that she hoped to recognize her parents.
Later, Huo Shao asked someone to inquire a few times, and each time he replied that the princess was fine and never went out.
Huo Shao knew that this matter was not trivial, so he persuaded the princess to live in peace and send her home when the time was ripe.
This stay is five years, and seeing that the two of them have grown up, the Huo family intends to let the two get married. The princess didn't want to stay in a foreign land in vain, and insisted on going back to recognize her relatives regardless of success or failure, so the two escaped from home and ran all the way to Tianzhu Kingdom, thousands of miles along the way, experiencing risks and hardships, and even the scars on Huo Shao's face were left on the way.
I heard that the fake princess enjoyed her honor every day and fulfilled her duties, she hated it and was also very curious, so she went to the street today to take a look at it, and it really looked exactly like her, and then she suddenly knew that it was done by an extraordinary person, but it was caused by the change of monsters.
In this way, their strength is not the opponent of youkai at all. Thinking of the strange appearance of the Tang monk and apprentice, the magic power is strong, all the way to kill the demons, and the Tang monk, knowing that his ability is far from being comparable to ordinary people, so the two decided to come to ask each other, and they must get rid of the demon as soon as possible.
Tang Seng was silent, this way to kill demons and destroy demons was originally to go to the West Heaven to learn scriptures, if you say that you want to kill monsters for no reason, after all, they are also living beings, and they will still commit murder in the end.
Sun Wukong has already sniffed out the smell of monsters, waiting for the master's words.
"Amitabha, although this monster is unjust, after all, it didn't hurt the princess's life, let's drive her out of the palace and return the princess to justice. The master said.
"No," Huo Shao said categorically: "If you walk on the front foot, and she comes back again, we can't resist her at all with our own mortal strength, since we want to arrest her, of course, we will cut the grass and eradicate the roots, and never suffer in the future." ”
Sun Wukong thanked Huo Shao for taking the fault of killing for him, and he had the heart to help him, so he nodded yes.
Zhu Bajie heard that it was a fake princess who rarely smiled at him, and he was stunned, "Finally, a beautiful woman smiled at me but it was a fake, hey, hey," he muttered: "Sure enough, it's still my lady, and my Cuilan is stupid, but she treats me sincerely." ”
I wonder if the monster had driven out the princess and replaced her with nothing more than greedy for pleasure, and if so, wouldn't it be better to steal some jewels like the red boy and live freely in his own mansion than to risk being discovered in the palace?
"What is the origin of this monster?" asked Sun Wukong.
The princess pondered silently for a moment, "I suspect that she is my personal maid Yu'er. ”
"How?"
"When Yu'er came, it happened that my former personal maid disappeared inexplicably, and the queen mother saw that she was more clever than other girls, so she left her by my side, Yu'er liked the moon very much, and looked at the moon in the sky in a daze when it was dark, and said that Chang'e in the Moon Palace was very lonely without companionship, and now the whole people worship what moon god, presumably she instigated. The princess said.
"That doesn't mean she's a monster," Sun Wukong said.
"I suspect that she is not unreasonable, once she was alone admiring the moon, and I stepped into the garden and she did not see her, and found her flying, and once I saw her standing on the side, and suddenly disappeared...... Such strange things happen from time to time, but I never thought she would be a monster. ”
"This is easy to do," Zhu Bajie said, "I want to know if she is a monster, I will find out if I go to investigate tonight." ”
Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie said they would do it, and the two disappeared in a blink of an eye.
After an hour, they came back, and the one in the palace was really fake, and Sun Wukong saw the shadow with his fiery eyes, and it turned out to be a rabbit spirit.
Zhu Bajie frowned deeply, as if he was thinking, "This rabbit essence has a medicinal smell on it, as if it has been smelled somewhere, it is a little familiar." “
As soon as she heard that someone finally recognized the princess in the palace as a fake, the real princess was grateful and relieved, knowing that she had a hopeful future, she couldn't help but take a deep look at Tang Seng again.
Tang Seng was quite embarrassed, he also hoped that the princess would return the pearl, but in addition to the impostor, the fake princess was also well-behaved, and did not hurt anyone, and it was against the belief of killing her to kill her, but if she didn't kill, the princess was worried that she would make a comeback, and begged bitterly.
"This is easy to do," I said, "tomorrow we will enter the palace to change Guan Wen, bring the princess with us, just confront the fake princess in court, if the rabbit spirit is harmful to people's hearts, you will kill her, if it is just a moment of naughty play, give her some lessons, then let her go back there, and do not step into the Tianzhu country half a step." I don't think she would have blown the princess to a foreign land and spared her life. ”
