Chapter 322: The Legend of the Dragon
"yes." The woman said as a matter of course: "Since you are a person sent by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, you must be a capable person, even if you are not 'three heads and six arms', there must be something extraordinary, let's show it." ”
The little guy was in a cold sweat when he heard it, and his attitude just now was put out, and now, it is not easy to take it back if he is praised so high.
He straightened up, straightened up, walked to the bookshelf, and turned back.
"Why, you are the prince's person, seeing that you are wearing a little eunuch suit, you are not a real father-in-law, are you?" Ning Xiaoxiao glanced at the little guy lightly.
"Wan Qiong's first year, right, such a few superficial words, small ones are naturally recognized." The angry little guy began to be busy in front of and behind the cabinet.
Shunhua saw it quickly, one volume after another, and there were more and more books piled up around him, Ning Xiaoxiao saw this, pointed to the little girl, and commanded directly: "You! It's you, she's finished reading this, pile it up in the corner, and later, you can find a way to put it back on the shelf. ”
"Eh, this father-in-law, you're not right, the little one obeyed the prince's orders, and the one who came to assist Mrs. Fu is the little one, but not all of them obey anyone's orders."
As soon as the little servant picked up the shelf, Shun Hua, who looked directly at the file, said: "His orders are also my orders, you do it, otherwise you won't find the treasure by then, and Mrs. Ben will rely on you." ”
"It's... Okay. ”
The little guy thought that he was receiving a good errand to make meritorious contributions, but how did he know that this group of people made people arouse people, and they didn't treat people as people at all, but called people as cattle.
The little guy who wanted to cry without tears was tricked until he was dizzy, and seeing this, Shun Hua quipped: "This prince is really good to us, and he sent such a powerful helper, otherwise it would be too late." ”
"That's right, when you go to report the situation to the prince tonight, remember, ask the old man to send a few more, just say that we can't be busy here."
Shun Hua and Ning Xiaoxiao talked to each other one by one, which made the prince's little guy angry, and provoked Fu Mujin to laugh at it.
"There are discoveries."
When she opened the box and picked up the red dossier, her clear eyes suddenly lit up.
The other three looked at it at the same time.
Ning Xiaoxiao took into account the presence of the prince's servant, and deliberately lowered her voice and asked, "What, what did you find, is it a treasure, or is it the Chen family... Or is it related to the swastika totem? ”
"That's not it, it's more like a legend that has been circulating in Wanqiong for a long time, the auspicious dragon Bintian, the throne is in front, the dragon and snake appear together, the brothers are on the wall, fighting bloodily, and they will rest until death."
The woman rolled her eyes slightly, reading the small words on the scroll: "Legend has it that every time the dragon general Bintian, before the dragon seat, a real dragon and a black snake will appear, they are not only siblings, but also naturally hostile opponents, they will fight each other for the dragon seat, until the other party dies in blood." ”
"Bintian..."Ning Xiaoxiao's mind immediately remembered what the two old eunuchs in front of the Wenshu Pavilion said, "Isn't it death... When I didn't say it. ”
"This legend seems to have been heard by the husband in the mouth of the mother." Fu Mujin lowered his eyes slightly, and recalled: "Wan Qiong began to appear a few generations ago, this kind of 'ghost makes God push' situation, especially the previous generation, when Wan Qiong suddenly died, the first emperor ascended the throne, the dragon's seventeenth son Long Yin led the palace Janissary Army, surrounded the entire palace, intending to slay the dragon and kill the monarch and ascend the throne. ”
"Slay the dragon and kill the king." She repeated thoughtfully: "The giant snake that the four generals killed refers to the dragon's seventeenth son, the dragon beetle. ”
"I guess so, Fang Cai, I didn't think that far ahead." Fu Mujin then said: "Mother said, that day, after the first emperor ascended the throne, he killed Long Teng's family, cronies, and slaves one by one for the great crime of rebellion, and the blood flowed like a river, and no one was left, hoping that the husband could take this as a warning and cherish the brotherhood." ”
Hearing this, all three fell silent.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little tense, Fu Mujin softly eased the atmosphere and said: "That's not without exceptions, today's Shengshang and Prince Jing are an exception, the first emperor wanted Prince Jing to be the emperor, but he turned his head and gave up the throne, and also assisted the Shengshang, defeated the rest of the princes, and helped him ascend to the throne, so this legend is a legend, and it cannot be trusted." ”
"Yes, besides, in this generation, who is the real dragon and who is the snake?"
Listening to Ning Xiaoxiao's muttering, the little guy secretly wrote down the matter.
The woman lowered her eyes and looked directly at the word dragon beetle on the scroll, and said thoughtfully;
"Teng Snake... Hooked Snake... It doesn't sound like it..."
The little guy couldn't hear what Shunhua was saying, and when he wanted to get closer, he was threatened by Ning Xiaoxiao and Fu Mujian's eyes.
I had to give up and continue to help carry things.

In the evening, the lights in the house were scorching, and the prince's servant hurriedly walked out of the Wenshu Pavilion, passed through the palace wall, and came to a bright private room.
"Slave Huang Shulang, meet His Royal Highness the Prince, may the Prince..."
"Enough, don't be polite, tell me what she did today."
The little guy nodded, and said sharply:
"Back to Your Highness, this Mrs. Fu looks diligent, but in fact, she is not looking for clues to the treasure at all, she stayed in Wenshu Pavilion all day to check the file, looking for the legend of the real dragon and black snake, and she has not mentioned the treasure in half a word, Your Highness, according to the villain's view, this person is not credible."
"Is that true? Wait, what about the legend of the real dragon and the black dragon? ”
The prince suddenly became a little curious.
Seeing this, the little guy hurriedly seized the opportunity to hug his thighs and said earnestly:
"This matter, the minions are not very true, they see that the villain is your person, and they are sneaky when they speak, they seem to say, there is an unknown legend in Wanqiong, but whenever the next monarch succeeds to the throne, there will be a real dragon and a black snake, the two sides fight for the throne, from generation to generation, of course, in the minds of the minions, the prince you must be the true dragon emperor, as for the insidious and cunning black dragon, it must be the nine princes."
"I haven't heard of this, they haven't said, why do you want to investigate this?" The prince asked rhetorically.
"I don't know, moreover, Mrs. Fu also brought her lover to go, the two of them are husband and lady, and they are not afraid to listen to people's responses, and their maids are also present, there is no mustard, it is simply a disaster in the palace, and it is unsightly."
The prince listened to the little servant's oil and vinegar, and suddenly frowned, "What kind of mess is this, what kind of place is she in the inner courtyard of the palace, she is holding the token given by my relatives, and it is my face, it seems that these five days are indeed too much." ”
The little servant did not hide the snort in his eyes, he raised the corners of his mouth, and asked softly: "I don't know the prince, what do you want to do with them?" ”
"Huang Shulang, you go and call her, Prince Ben suddenly remembered a very interesting thing."
"Villain, obey."
*
I don't know how long I watched it, the tired Shunhua actually closed her eyelids and lay down between her warm chests, in her dream, she saw a huge black dragon scurrying up in the sea, roaring and roaring at herself, as if venting the anger in her heart.
"Lady? Wife? ”
Fu Mujin worriedly lifted his sleeves, wiped the fine sweat on her forehead, and shook her gently.
"Ah, the black dragon."
This was the first thing the woman said when she woke up.
"What black dragon?" Fu Mujin asked puzzled.
"No, maybe it's thinking day and night, after looking for so long, isn't there a blackened case? Don't see my dad's name? ”
At that time, Ning Xiaoxiao stood in the distance, yawning, and replied: "No, not a word, I have found most of the Wenshu Pavilion, let alone your father, even yours is very few, too, a person who has assisted the king, but has not asked for an official and a half-position, how can it be recorded in the annals and case files, maybe, the things that your father lost are things that can be seen everywhere, not enough to mention, you still think about it, before and after your father's disappearance, did you have contact with anyone, better." ”
Shunhua grabbed Fu Mujian's sleeve tightly and stabilized his mind.
The case files seen in Luoshui City were all over the place.
"You say that there are things that seem to be in every household, woodcutters, merchants, literati, officials, bread sellers, shoe sellers, rich households, poor people..."
Suddenly, Fu Muhibiscus and Ning Xiaoxiao had an idea, and replied in unison: "Chopsticks!" ”
“......”
Shunhua was stunned for a while, and his heart was like running through 10,000 cows.
Angrily asked: "If you lose your chopsticks, will you report to the official?" How can a thief steal chopsticks? ”
"It's like... That's how it goes. Ning Xiaoxiao touched her head, bowed her head a little embarrassed, and continued to guess: "Otherwise, it's a bowl?" kitchen knives..."
"Enough, the youngest Qing official in history, you have disappointed Mrs. Ben too much."
Shunhua yawned, and was about to open the file to continue reading, Fu Mujin pressed her hand and persuaded her: "You haven't eaten for a day, you can't be hungry, why don't we take a rest first, take a breath, maybe we can find out what you want later." ”
"However, if you don't find out, you won't know Mr. Lu's true intentions, and you won't be able to predict his next step."
Hearing this, Fu Mujin said softly; "Lady, you still have me, rely on me."
"Rely on you..."
The clear and bright eyes just reflected the man's face, and there was a cough behind him, and he interrupted rudely: "Ahem, cough, cough—"
The two of them turned their heads in a daze, looking at the little guy who had gone and returned.
Ning Xiaoxiao put down the dossier she had just finished reading, and asked expressionlessly: "It's you, why did you just come back after putting on our little shoes in front of the prince, and don't take a break." ”
"You... The little servant held back his anger and raised his voice to proclaim: "The prince has an order, and he orders you to go to the East Palace to see him." ”
"Didn't he say give us five days? Repented? ”
Shunhua pursed his eyes, a little dissatisfied.
"The prince is a golden body, a nobleman above ten thousand people, what does the prince decide, which is your turn to question, the little one persuades you, just follow the instructions honestly, don't make those false things."
Shunhua squinted his eyes and stared at the villain in front of him.
It was the first time she saw a villain, not her father-in-law, but better than her father-in-law.
"Just go."
As soon as he had not walked a few steps, Shunhua felt his stomach rumbling and hungry.
Fu Mujin stretched out her hand to cover her lower abdomen, frowned slightly, and said worriedly: "Or, the lady has eaten the dinner and will go again?" ”
Hearing this, the little maid seemed to have heard the Arabian Nights, and hurriedly choked: "What nonsense are you talking about, the prince has given an order, you have to go immediately, do you still wait for you to finish eating, bathe, and sleep before going to him?" ”
This is better than her father-in-law, what is he talking nonsense, and he actually dares to say that her hibiscus is the first face!
Have you ever seen something that looks like this... I almost forgot, her husband has changed his appearance, no, the makeup is ugly, and he can't be scared.
"What a good idea! Very good! The woman clapped her hands and applauded.
The little girl looked at her in bewilderment, like looking at a madman.
