Chapter 17: The White Lantern Cult
A simple sentence that day, Teng Yanbai really took it to heart. Soon the relevant arrangements are made and ready to take you out on the streets.
"Tassel, do you think this smoky silver luo flower silk gown is good-looking, or is it this lotus blue and gold thread embroidered Baizi pomegranate satin robe?"
"The Lord of the Nine Counties has been captivating the country and the city since what he wears at that time."
You look back at Tassel and Momo's playful tone, and glare at them with a feigned annoyance. "Then let's take this lotus blue one." Thinking about it, Yanbai loves plain clothes the most.
The little peach is slippery to help you change your clothes, and the tassel simply pulls a bun for you, without too much decoration, only a pearl exquisite eight-treasure hairpin that matches the clothes.
After washing and dressing up, Teng Yanbai had been waiting in the carriage at the door for a long time.
"Yanbai, you see if I look good today."
After saying that, I was going to get up and show him. Unexpectedly, the carriage suddenly started, and you suddenly lost your footing and threw yourself into his arms.
"The Lord of the Nine Counties is so active today?" Teng Yanbai reached out to catch you and whispered in your ear.
Your face was red from the heat he exhaled, and you quickly broke free from his arms and sat aside.
"No, no."
Seeing that you are so shy, I nodded the tip of your nose. chuckle.
Secretly turned his head to look at the man in front of him, I don't know if he had a heart or how, today he also wore a blue-gray dress, the hem of the clothes was embroidered with silver thread and a large piece of bamboo, the corner of the man's mouth smiled and lifted the curtain to look out of the window, the light sprinkled on his face, this time, how a heart moved.
"Yanbai, where are we going first?"
"Jusheng Building." After speaking, he turned his head to look at you, "I have already sent someone to arrange it, and I will take you around after eating." ”
You nodded, it's good to go anywhere, it's good to have you.
In the blink of an eye, it was there. Get out of the carriage and take a closer look, it is worthy of being the first restaurant, the style can no longer be described, the antique wooden buildings are mixed with the aroma of food, and occasionally there can be the sound of poets chanting poems against each other. At the top of the gate, it is magnificently written - Jusheng Building
"Let's go." Yan Bai holds your hand and leads you inside.
Xiao Er takes you to the best private room on the third floor. It is said to be a private room, but you can also see the outside scene. There are a few small people in the shop, there are talented people who are right with poetry, and there are young couples who are kind and loving. Suddenly, you see a group of people dressed in white angrily walking into the restaurant. Pure white clothing, at first glance, the person who came was not good.
"It's not good, it's the White Lantern Sect. Zhu Qing, Xiao Tao quickly took Zhu Fangjun away. ”
You have only heard it in the court, and now the White Lantern Sect is very rampant, and in the name of overthrowing corrupt officials, it is actually trying to usurp the throne. I didn't expect to meet you when I came out for a meal.
"County Lord, what should you do?" Xiao Tao said while hugging Teng Yanbai as he walked.
"Yue'er, why don't we go together." Teng Yanbai saw that you had no intention of leaving, so he hurriedly took your hand and asked.
"It's extremely difficult for the White Lantern Sect to appear, you can't manage so much, you take a detour back, inform the fourth sister and the fifth sister to come quickly, I'll ambush it, you go quickly."
Yes, in order to arrest the White Lantern Sect, the four county lords have not closed their eyes for a few days, but they can't find any trace at all. Besides, isn't it all like this in TV series, the heroine sacrificed herself to defeat the enemy, I don't know if she can defeat you, but as the old saying goes, don't leave if you see it.
Seeing that they had already walked down the hall. You turn around and come to the back kitchen of the store, find a piece of Xiao Er's clothes, hurriedly change them, take off all the jewelry on your head, and tie your hair up casually with firewood branches. I grabbed a handful of ash from the stove with my hand and wiped it on my face.
After making sure that he should not recognize himself, he went out again to take a look, and the White Lantern Sect had already opened a killing spree in the hall. The tables and chairs were all twisted and crooked, and the place where they were eating was lively just now turned into a Shura field in the blink of an eye, and some of the family members wanted to fight with them with axes, but they were ruthlessly killed under the knife. The people on the second and third floors all fled in all directions, and for a while, blood flowed like a river. And I saw that the man who was in charge of the chief was coercing the shopkeeper with a knife, and forced him to tell him where you were.
Just as you were thinking about whether to go down and negotiate with them, or secretly find a place to hide, suddenly someone covered her mouth from behind and dragged backwards. You chuckle and struggle.
"Who are you, let go of me."
"Don't move." A familiar voice rang in my ears.
He takes you to a secret passage out of nowhere, opens the mechanism, closes the stone door, and lights the candles on the walls.
"Su Yincheng, I'm scared of you!" Finally saw the person in front of him clearly, and somehow, the heart that had just been flustered suddenly calmed down a little.
"It's you who is scary, Lord of the Nine Counties, knowing that they are going to kill you, you are still stunned and motionless." Su Yincheng looked at you dirty and complained: "You be quiet, I don't dare to guarantee that they will not find here." ”
"So, how did you find me?"
Su Yincheng rolled his eyes, "I'll sit next door to you, fool." ”
I was about to refute something, when I suddenly heard footsteps outside the door, and you looked at the door alertly.
