41. You have to go and cry too
I walked around the forest in the deserted garden all night, which directly caused me to fall asleep as soon as I turned my head after dawn, and slept until the sky changed from dark to bright and then from light to dark.
It's evening.
Huanlin opened his eyes and looked at the sun that was about to set in an hour at most, and I wanted to cry a little.
What's going on, a whole day has been wasted! She couldn't go to that old man at night...... At night, Lao Dao followed the emperor!
That old way must be found, and the great beauty must also be saved, this is the result of thinking about it all night last night.
She knew she couldn't reason with those ghosts. Because a reasonable person will be honestly reincarnated not long after death, and he will definitely not become a ghost and wander in the world.
And she is not a Taoist priest in charge of catching ghosts, as an ordinary person...... Demons, there is only one means she can use to "deal with" ghosts, that is, to help them resolve their grievances, and then persuade them to reincarnate obediently.
Therefore, if the great beauty cannot be saved, the resentment of the hanged ghost will definitely increase, not only will it be impossible to reincarnate obediently, but most of the time he will come to her every day to entangle - then it will be miserable!
In order to avoid being entangled by the hanged ghost, it is necessary to save the great beauty. In order to save the great beauty, you must first eat a full stomach.
However, look at this sky, when she has eaten her stomach, it will almost be dark.
It seems that the matter of saving the great beauty can only be postponed until tomorrow, so she only has a day or two left at most...... In other words, there are no more than two chances.
She is such a weak sparrow, and she wants to save ghosts from the hands of an old Taoist priest with the ability to rush to the void real person, and Huan Lin feels that he is really daring to think more and more.
After thinking about it for a long time, the sun obviously went down a little again. Huan Lin stood up and patted the blades of grass on her body, and said in her heart that she was going to the battlefield tomorrow, and she had to eat a severed head meal tonight...... Oh no, Zhuangxing.
In short, eat hearty! Huan Lin made up his mind, moved his limbs, and decided to take out his skills that had been wasted for several days and go to the imperial dining room to do a big job.
They are all familiar with each other, but there is nothing difficult about it.
Huan Lin smoothly mixed into the imperial dining room, endured saliva through the pastry room she usually liked very much, passed through the middle of the hibiscus forest, watched a few little eunuchs who delivered vegetables walk away, and then quietly poked their heads out to peek, and took a cautious step.
Her goal is to enter the courtyard for the third time, where all the rare things hidden are tributes from all over the world, including bamboo sunflowers, shark fins, ninety-nine ducks, and Jingtang lotus roots...... Of course, there is also the white shrimp surimi that she misses in her heart.
Thinking of eating, Huan Lin immediately felt that his body was full of strength, and his arms and legs that were sore from sleep didn't hurt anymore, and he could step over the flower bed with just a casual lift of his foot-
Then the collar was lifted.
This tastes a lot like when it was hung on a tree by a great beauty. Huan Lin subconsciously opened her mouth to shout, but a hand stretched out behind her and covered her mouth tightly.
It's not a big beauty, it's a robber!
When Huan Lin realized this fact, he was immediately frightened, and instinctively shook his limbs, trying to snatch his life back from the robbers.
But it didn't work. The robber's strength was amazing, and in an instant he dragged her back to the flower forest, and then grabbed her by the waist and ran all the way, and carried her out of the imperial dining room very smoothly, and back to the deserted garden.
Huan Lin even forgot about his fear, and was so angry that he almost died.
Judging by the robber's familiarity with the imperial dining room, it is estimated that most of the robbers are also thieves who love to steal and eat. Since everyone is a thief, a person on the same road, why do you want to tear each other down!
Because he was so angry, as soon as he was thrown to the ground, he flipped and jumped up, and reached out to grab the robber's face.
But she was very uselessly grabbed by the wrist, and she also saw the other party's face clearly at this time.
Shen Yuli?!
Huan Lin was stunned for a moment, then became even more angry, and withdrew his hand suddenly, and the whole person pounced.
Shen Yuli looked overjoyed, and subconsciously opened his hand to catch her, but the next moment he found that the little eunuch was not trying to throw himself into his arms, but grabbed his face with both hands.
"You shameless!" The angry voice of Huanlin resounded in the deserted garden, "The conscience was eaten by dogs, the liver and lungs were dug up by thieves, and the intestines were stewed by wild cats!" Just kick me out in the middle of the night, let me spend the night with the hanged man, and I'll put up with it, and now I want to get something to eat and you have to stop you, what do you want? What good is it for you to starve me to death......"
Shen Yuli took two steps back to avoid her attack, thought about it and simply grabbed her two wrists and clenched them tightly, and said in a deep voice: "Go around the forest!" ”
Huan Lin was honest immediately, but then he felt aggrieved, and he was busy and desperately retracting his hand.
Shen Yu didn't let go, clenched it hard, and sighed: "Don't be petty." Come back when you're out of breath! ”
"Hey!" Around the forest fire, "Why can't I play tricks!" Why should I go back! I'm fine outside, I have food, drink and a place to sleep, why should I go back and suffer your anger! I'm not stupid! ”
This is clearly not deflated.
Shen Yuli couldn't coax people, and he was embarrassed for a while, and then made up his mind and said with a calm face: "If you don't come back, I can let you have no food, no drink, and no place to sleep." ”
This is a clear threat. Huanlin froze.
How can people be so shameless!
It turns out that Shen Yuli can be even more shameless. He looked condescendingly at the forest, and added, "I can also let you hit ghosts every night, and more than a dozen hanged ghosts surround you when you open your eyes." ”
When I went around the forest, I was so frightened that I shuddered, and the courage that I thought I had grown a little bit after practicing all night last night instantly collapsed.
But she didn't want to admit defeat like this, so she could only grit her teeth and say, "Those ghosts don't listen to your ......."
"But Chong Xuan Zhenren can control them," Shen Yuli said calmly, "I am also a prince anyway, and Chong Xuan Zhenren will not even refuse to help me with this little favor." ”
When Huan Lin heard this, he completely understood: this Shen Yuli was clearly bullying her and was addicted, and he didn't plan to ask for his old face at all!
I even made such a trick to a little sparrow! As a human who loves to toss around the most, as a high-ranking prince, is he so idle?
Huan Lin was very angry, suspecting that his eyes were not very good before, and he even thought that Shen Yuli was a good person.
What's wrong with him? It's obviously bad! There are sores on the top of the head and pus on the soles of the feet, and there is no good place on the whole body!
Angry, Huanlin stepped on a plantain fiercely, turned around and left: "You are Your Highness, you have the final say." However, only the hanged ghost is not interesting, you better ask Chongxu Zhenren to bring me two drowned ghosts and two guillotine ghosts, so that everyone can talk at night, and each of them will talk about how he died, and he will spend the night talking! ”
Shen Yuli followed behind her, frowning and laughing.
It's been less than twelve hours since I left, and the little sparrow has grown his skills, and he is not afraid of ghosts!
That's not a good thing. Shen Yuli sounded the alarm bell for himself in his heart, stood up suddenly, and sighed.
Huan Lin noticed it, and she stopped busy, for fear that the other party was playing some tricks and she didn't know, so she fell for his trick in a daze.
I didn't know that this stop and sigh was Shen Yuli's plan.
I only heard Shen Yuli sigh, as if he was very embarrassed: "I really didn't expect that, it turns out that you are not afraid of ghosts." I just told Chong Xuzhen this morning to let him clear the wild ghosts in the palace, since you are not afraid, I will tell him not to bother. ”
"Hey, no-" Before he could react in his mind, his mouth had already shouted first.
Shen Yuli smiled, raised his eyebrows and asked knowingly, "Why not?" ”
Huan Lin suddenly blushed, hesitated for a while, turned around stubbornly, and said seriously: "Taoist priests are originally ghost hunters!" You have already ordered him to catch ghosts, and then turned around and told him that there is no need to catch them, and he will most likely suspect that you are capable of questioning him, and by the way, he may also suspect that you are an unreliable prince. If your father trusts him, he will probably listen to his slander and dislike you even more......"
She babbled a string of words, and before the words fell, Shen Yuli had already laughed.
Huan Lin was angry: "What are you laughing at?" I'm down to business! ”
Shen Yuli smiled even deeper when he heard this, and he didn't restrain himself: "You started to think about me again, does it mean that you have lost your anger?" ”
Huan Lin instinctively wanted to shake his head and deny it, but Shen Yuli grabbed her wrist again, dragged it back: "It's almost enough, I've never bowed my head to someone like this in my life!" ”
Huan Lin suddenly felt a softness in his heart, and subconsciously followed two steps.
If you want to regret it at this time, it will be hypocritical.
Shen Yuli peeked at her reluctant expression, quietly curled the corners of his lips, and said, "I have asked someone to send tonight's meal to Tingshui Xuan, it is all your favorite food." I also asked the eunuch in the imperial dining room to be interviewed for poison, and I confirmed that there was no problem. ”
Huanlin hadn't eaten for a whole day and night, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but start drooling.
She struggled to maintain the expression on her face and asked, "Did last night's incident come to fruition?" ”
Shen Yuli let out a long sigh of relief, and then changed to a regretful expression: "This kind of thing will not come to fruition." There was a little eunuch in the imperial dining room who committed suicide, and his father said that there was no need to investigate further. ”
Huan Lin didn't understand why he couldn't continue to investigate, he only knew that such a result meant that the murderer was still lurking in the shadows, ready to kill people again at any time.
This is a very unpleasant conclusion.
Shen Yuli grabbed her hand and tightened it tightly, and continued: "The wood is very badly injured, but there is no complaint against me. I don't know if he's really just a cowardly or a scheming man. ”
Huan Lin didn't understand this even more, just listening to Shen Yuli's tone, he faintly felt that his current situation was actually quite miserable.
But after thinking about it, she found that she was actually even more miserable: she had obviously suffered a great grievance, but it didn't matter how Shen Yuli coaxed her, so she obediently followed him back!
So, the little sparrow is stupid!
Back to Tingshuixuan, Huan Lin went to see the wood first, and then pretended to be reluctant to follow Shen Yu back to the room, and sure enough, he saw that the table was full of food, which was even more sumptuous than last night's.
Happiness!
Little sparrows are creatures that don't know what it means to be "bitten by a snake for ten years and afraid of the well rope", and most of the world is not as big as delicious. Huanlin threw himself at the table and ate happily.
Shen Yuli finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, sat down and slowly ate with her, and said in his heart that there was no danger, and this turmoil had finally passed.
Unexpectedly, after eating and drinking enough, Huanlin wiped his mouth, and suddenly asked him a scary topic: "I'm going to Chongxu Zhenren to save a ghost, can you help me think of a way?" ”
Shen Yuli was so frightened that he couldn't hold the chopsticks in his hand steadily, and when he put down the dishes and chopsticks together, he pretended to be calm and asked, "What the hell are you doing?" ”
Huan Lin said seriously: "I don't make ghosts, I want to save ghosts." It's that big beauty, the hanged ghost said that she couldn't survive the real people...... No, I mean, she's going to disappear in seven days at most, and I want to get her out! ”
Shen Yuli held his forehead with his hand, and said for a long time: "People and ghosts have different paths, you should be happy that a female ghost is caught." ”
"I'm not happy, so I want to save her!" Huan Lin stood up with a firm attitude: "I think you have a lot of ideas, so I want to ask you if you have a good idea." If you don't want to help, I'll think about it myself, in short, the ghost must be saved! ”
Shen Yuli looked at the little eunuch's face full of seriousness, and suddenly had the urge to throw her out again.
This kid ...... Not so much at first!
Shen Yuli recalled it carefully, and found that it had only been half a month, and he didn't seem to remember what this little eunuch was like at the beginning.
Anyway, it's certainly not what it is now.
Shen Yuli suddenly fell into distress, and then began to think about why he was a prince because of a little eunuch, and then even more distressed because of his distress at the moment.
Huanlin couldn't wait, and when he saw that he didn't speak, he treated him as if he didn't agree, and he was about to go out with a pat of his sleeves: "It's okay if you don't help me, I'll figure it out myself!" ”
"Around the forest!" Shen Yuli hurriedly stepped forward and dragged her back, helpless: "If you want to find a way, you have to think about it during the day!" At night, Chongxu Zhenren must keep vigil for his father, let's go to him, didn't it alarm my father?
Of course, Lin Lin herself had thought of this, so she was thinking of another way at the moment: "Since he wants to keep vigil for the emperor, then there must be no one in the place where he lives!" I'm going to look for him first......"
"No way!" Shen Yuli immediately interrupted her thoughts, "Who told you that there was no one at night where Chongxu Zhenren lived?" His father gave him more than 20 palace maids, as well as more than a dozen little eunuchs who sprinkled and swept away, and they were impenetrable, and you couldn't fly in with your wings! Also, it is rumored that the ghosts caught by the old way are all locked up in a gourd that he carries with him, what can you find in his residence? ”
Huan Lin was stunned when he heard this, thought for a long time, and suddenly rejoiced: "It turns out that you know that old way so well!" That's great, then let's go to him tomorrow, you can get him drunk, and I'll go steal that gourd!" ”
Shen Yuli felt that this "method" was child's play, but tomorrow's affairs were not supposed to be done in advance today, so he vaguely agreed, and said in his heart that this little sparrow must have been making trouble to save some female ghost on a whim, and it would be good to find a way to divert his attention tomorrow.
Unexpectedly, before waiting for "tomorrow", something happened in the palace again.
First, several imperial doctors were summoned into the palace in a hurry, and then several palaces quarreled for the imperial doctors, and then of course, you didn't let me, I didn't let you, and the palace was restless.
Shen Yuli listened to the complaints of the eunuchs passing by outside in Shui Xuan, and knew that things were not simple.
In the palace of several princes, they quarreled for the imperial doctor.
In other words, several princes are sick at the same time tonight, and they are all suddenly ill.
If you think about it on your heels, you know that this thing is really abnormal!
Shen Yuli calmly returned to the house and instructed Huan Lin: "You also go outside and cry!" Ask the Imperial Doctor whose palace he is, go and kowtow to make a fuss, and say that I am sick and dying, please ask the Imperial Doctor to come and take a look! ”
Huan Lin tilted his head and looked at him like a fool: "Are you stupid?" Who is good at cursing himself? Besides, you look like you're dying? ”
"You fool, don't keep saying that others are stupid!" Shen Yuli said coldly, "You're stupid!" In such a situation tonight, the doctor came to see me, and it was called a ghost! You just have to cry twice, and you don't have to make too much trouble, just let people know that you've been there! ”
Huan Lin didn't know what was going on at all, but he felt that His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince was really getting stranger and stranger.
When I first met, I thought he was a robber boy who didn't like to talk, but now I know after knowing him for a long time, this is a bad guy who wants to come out and be unstable!
Shen Yuli didn't care how Huan Lin slandered him, he just coerced and lured him to talk about it, and in the end, he even said things like "If you don't go, I'll really die", and finally sent Huan Lin out.
Because this incident was so abnormal, Huan Lin once suspected that Shen Yuli was trying to find an excuse to kick her out again. For this reason, she sneaked back after going out and snooped several times, confirming that Shen Yuli had no intention of closing the door, so she shook her hands and reluctantly wandered to run errands.
This errand is not difficult to say, but it is not easy to say.
There are a total of three imperial doctors who entered the palace tonight, one is waiting for the eldest prince, and two are taking care of the twin sons at Qian Zhaorong's place.
Huan Lin ran around with a group of little eunuchs, and suddenly found that the servants of the fifth prince Shen Qin were crying outside Qian Zhaorong's door, and he hurriedly ran over to accompany him and cried twice, shouting a few words, "My Royal Highness is about to die", and he also added a scene to himself with great interest, bumped into a little eunuch and ran desperately into the courtyard, and finally was blasted out as he wished.
Everything went smoothly.
The only accident was that Qian Zhaorong, who had been crying beside the bedside of his two younger sons, suddenly ran out and looked over here from a distance for a while, his face was very unsightly.
Shen Yuli said that it was not an accident that he was not arrested. So Huan Lin wiped his tears and returned to Tingshuixuan with peace of mind.
