Chapter 235: Chilly
In the dim light and shadow, I saw that the Surabaya residence was dark and extremely cold, and several big Chu guards in front of them began to light the lanterns in the courtyard of the Surabaya residence while leading the way, and when they led Sihan to stand in front of the main hall of the Surabaya residence, the Chu guards stopped and looked back at Sihan, "Eldest princess, this is the main hall of the Surabaya residence." The subordinates first lit the candles in the hall, and then went back to send the servants to serve. ”
Sihan's expression moved slightly, and he did not speak immediately.
Shan Zhongze immediately said: "No need, the eldest princess already has a servant, so there is no need to bother." Chu Wei was slightly stunned, and in the blink of an eye, he came back to his senses, and he had no intention of being more polite because of this, so he just nodded respectfully towards Sihan, and then stretched out his hand, and simply pushed open the door of the main hall.
When the door of the temple opened, it was pitch black.
Sihan didn't enter immediately, and only after Chu Wei lit all the candles in the hall did she and Shan Zhongze slowly walk inside.
"There is no need for you to serve here, you can go back and report to the second prince." After just sitting on the soft couch in the room, Si Han's eyes swept towards those Chu Wei and said in a low voice.
Chu Wei was also very aware of current affairs, nodded immediately, and said respectfully: "If the eldest princess has any needs, just send someone to inform Chu Wei in this palace." ”
After speaking, several people bowed respectfully to Sihan, "Eldest princess, farewell." ”
Sihan stared at them very indifferently, without saying a word, and only when Chu Wei went out and walked away did she turn her eyes and glance at Shan Zhongze.
Shan Zhongze nodded hurriedly, quickly walked to the gate of the palace not far away, and after cautiously exploring the outside, he began to close the door, and said in a low voice: "Eldest princess, the fire tonight is undoubtedly helped by people with extremely skilled martial arts. If not, the crescent moon hall would not have been able to burn so quickly. ”
It seems that Shan Zhongze is also aware of this.
Sihan's expression moved slightly, and his eyes looked at the candle flame not far away, and his complexion did not change much.
The crescent moon hall can burn so quickly, out of control, among them, it has to rely on combustion, and can be so quickly poured on the combustion-supporting things under her Yan Sihan and Shan Zhongze's eyelids, and even light a fire and set fire, then Liu Yu, how can he have this ability?
She knew it in her heart, but she didn't speak immediately, and her slender fingertips were very lazy and casual to put the tea cup on the table next to her, but under her fingertips, there was a slight temperature.
It's actually hot tea that has never cooled!
Her pupils shrank suddenly, and she said in a low voice: "The fire in the Crescent Moon Hall tonight is undoubtedly someone who wants to target the life of this palace. And that Liu Yu is just a ghost for the dead. ”
Shan Zhongze's pupils shrank, "Before Liu Yu died, he said that it was Emperor Chu who instructed him to ......"
"No, it's the Emperor of Chu."
Without waiting for Shan Zhongze to say the rest of the words, Sihan interrupted slightly and simply.
Shan Zhongze suddenly choked on his words, and doubts arose in his heart, "If it weren't for Emperor Chu, who did the eldest princess think it was?" Could it be that the rest of the countries in this palace? ”
Sihan's expression was distant, his fingertips moved slightly, he brought the teacup in his hand close to him, and when he looked at it carefully, he saw that inside the teacup was a cup of colorless and tasteless white water.
She frowned slightly, and then indifferently handed the teacup in front of Shan Zhongze, and when he looked at her in surprise, she said in a low voice: "You touch." ”
Shan Zhongze nodded hurriedly, stretched out his hand to take the teacup, but when the cup entered the palm of his hand, his complexion changed suddenly.
Sihan pulled up her dress slightly, and said in a low voice: "This Surabaya residence seems to be unoccupied, but the tea on these cases has a temperature." In this way, when the crescent moon hall was on fire, there should have been someone here to drink tea and watch the play. ”
Shan Zhongze's brows furrowed terribly, and his face was extremely vigilant, "The eldest princess is extremely right. If the person behind the curtain really tastes tea here when the crescent moon hall is on fire, there is no doubt that the person behind the curtain is either extremely respectful and respectful enough to enter this palace at will, or that person is also a person in this palace; Or, that person's martial arts are extremely strong, even if he is not a person in the palace, he can also use his martial arts to break into the palace without knowing it. ”
"Not bad. It's just that, according to the meaning of the palace, it is the person behind the scenes, Xu is not the Emperor of Chu. ”
Sihan spoke silently.
Shan Zhongze stared at Sihan quietly, "But before Liu Yu died, he did say that Emperor Chu instructed him......
Before he could speak, Sihan interrupted, "Liu Yu's words, if it is said that he deliberately deceived the world, it is also possible. Moreover, if it is really Emperor Chu who wants to be unfavorable to the palace, why bother, set fire to the palace in full view of everyone, and even pick a lame and incompetent person like Liu Yu, and expose him behind the scenes, without sending a dead man to act secretly, once the incident in the east window occurs, he can bite the poison and die, and there is no proof of death. ”
As he spoke, his eyes fell towards Shan Zhongze, "Around Emperor Chu, there must be countless people, doing such things, why do you need to pick Liu Yu and others." ”
Shan Zhongze suddenly felt reasonable, but his brows furrowed more and more, "If it weren't for Emperor Chu, who would be the person behind this scene." ”
His voice was extremely remote and helpless, complicated.
Sihan's pupils shrank, and her face sank sharply, and after a moment of silence, her lips opened, and she said gloomily: "Send someone to secretly check, in this Da Chu palace, except for those who watched the play tonight, who else has never come to the Crescent Moon Hall to watch the fire." ”
Shan Zhongze hurriedly said cautiously: "Yes." ”
As soon as these words fell, he was about to turn around slightly, Sihan's fingertips moved, and his fingertips began to rub the cup, "By the way, send someone to find the regent." ”
Shan Zhongze was slightly stunned, he really didn't expect that the regent might not have returned for a long time, but as soon as he contacted the fire in the Crescent Moon Hall just now, his expression began to tense suddenly, and then he didn't dare to stay longer, and immediately turned around and left.
This time the fire in the Crescent Moon Palace, in addition to the arsonist's martial arts, was able to avoid the Tanglin guards in the crescent Moon Hall without knowing it, there is also a possibility that there is an inner ghost in the Tanglin group, and it is the inner ghost who is secretly arranged and arsoned, and the rest of the Tanglin guards have not found out.
But this time, the Tanglin guards who came to Chu with them were all carefully selected, selected layer by layer, and each guard was credible, so if there was really an inner ghost, the regent and the ghost who had disappeared for so long were extremely suspicious.
Thoughts are churning and complicated. After thinking about it, Shan Zhongze finally fell the suspicion on Lan Yeyu.
The night is as cool as washing, Surabaya is in the main hall, a few lights are like beans, and the lights are shadowy.
Sihan's eyes were far away, his face was complicated, and he sat on the soft couch for a long time before he slowly got up and walked to the carved window not far away to look at the window.
Outside the window, the light and shadow are dim, and the path outside the hall is also winding and remote, revealing a little cold and blurry for no reason.
It wasn't long before Sihan saw the end of the trail, and Shan Zhongze suddenly returned quickly.
Her pupils narrowed slightly, but she didn't speak.
Shan Zhongze also walked very fast, and he saw Sihan by the window from afar, and when he got closer, he frowned and said respectfully: "Eldest princess, the regent and the Fu ghost are drunk in the Luoxia residence next door, and they are drinking and crazy there. ”
When these words came into his ears, the corners of Sihan's eyes twitched, and his heart suddenly overflowed with complexity.
After Lan Yeyu was drunk, she was indeed a little crazy, just like on the wedding night that day, after Lan Yeyu was drunk, she dared to attack and intimate her with the following crimes.
That kind of enthusiasm and arrogance fell on Lan Yeyu, and it didn't match, and only after Lan Yeyu was drunk, he could break the warmth and elegance of his daily life and become manic and enthusiastic.
Yes, then Lan Yeyu didn't return for a long time tonight, because he was drunk and went crazy with others?
But Lan Yeyu is drunk, why is the Fu ghost also drunk, could it be that the person next door is the most hospitable, not only entertaining Lan Yeyu with good wine, but even treating Fu Ghost equally, and warmly entertaining?
I have to say that tonight, the crescent moon hall suddenly caught fire, and Lan Yeyu's master and servant were suddenly drunk.
Sihan's face became more and more heavy, and his eyes fell towards Shan Zhongze again, "Who lives in Luoxiaju next door?" ”
Shan Zhongze's voice was a little deep, "I live in An Yihou of Loulan Kingdom." ”
Is it? It's Loulan?
Although Loulan is slightly close to the outside of the plug and has a slightly wild habit, but because of this rough atmosphere, she is not too hospitable, so Lan Yeyu just went to visit the neighbors of the Crescent Moon Palace, and was even drunk by Loulan's An Yihou?
Her pupils were very gloomy, "Take Hongu with you." ”
As soon as these words fell, without waiting for Shan Zhongze to react, Sihan quickly turned around and immediately headed towards the palace gate not far away.
Along the way, she was extremely fast, and Shan Zhongze didn't dare to delay, and quickly led the way.
And the so-called Luoxiaju is very close to the Surabaya residence, and after bypassing half of the road, the Luoxiaju will stand next to the road.
This time, he had not entered the courtyard of Luoxiaju, so he heard the silk bamboo flute from afar, Sihan's face was heavy, and his feet became faster and faster.
"Who are you?"
Loulan's guards drew their spears and cold knives one after another, and asked viciously. That kind of momentum is really like a fierce man on the grassland, but Sihan glanced at them casually, and did not put it in his eyes, but when his eyes turned around a little, he suddenly saw that the clothes of these Loulan guards were extremely amorous and special, and the few ethnic styles were extremely strong, and even, these guards had long hair and braids, capable and thick, and unprovoked, giving people a very rough meaning.
In an instant, Sihan's pupils shrank, and the emotions in his heart suddenly churned again.
Thoughts and memories came up layer by layer, and suddenly, she realized that the clothes of these Loulan guards were very similar to that Xue Man. Zeng also clearly remembered that at the Lantern Festival in Donghu Lake in Tanglin Kyoto that day, the Xue Man was full of arrogance, and even jumped on the painting boat of Zhan Wenyi, and that night, the Xue Man was also dressed in a very ethnic style, and some lines on the skirt were the same as the lines on the clothes of these Loulan soldiers. It is the hair of the snow man, and the whips of these Loulan guards, which are extremely imaginary.
In this way, that Xue Man is a person from Loulan? If this is the case, what is the meaning of that person suddenly pretending to be a man to sneak into her Tanglin imperial examination?
The more I think about it, the more complex the meaning in my heart becomes.
In just a moment, Shan Zhongze beside him quickly dodged in front of Sihan, and said very resolutely and coldly: "Presumptuous!" This is the eldest princess of Dongling, the regent who came to pick me up from Dongling, why don't you get out of the way? ”
Shan Zhongze's voice was raised extremely high, and his momentum was like a rainbow.
The Loulan guards were not afraid, and they had no intention of getting out of the way, but said aggressively: "It doesn't matter if you are the eldest princess of Tanglin or who, we only know that our marquis has not summoned you, so you are not allowed to trespass, let alone enter." ”
Shan Zhongze's face sank, and before he could speak, Sihan suddenly stretched out his hand and pushed him aside very indifferently.
"Since this is the case, then I will trouble you to go in and report it, and just say that the eldest princess of Tanglin is coming to visit and wants to meet with An Yihou."
Sihan spoke gloomily.
Seeing that Sihan was a little polite, the Loulan guards were not too embarrassed, but they glanced at Sihan and Shan Zhongze coldly, and then someone said, "Wait." ”
As soon as these words fell, the soldier who had spoken turned and walked towards the courtyard.
Sihan was not in a hurry, the whole person stood calmly in place, looking indifferent.
Not long after, in the cold wind, the departing guards quickly returned, this time, he was a little polite to Sihan, and said slowly: "The eldest princess of Dongling, the prince of my family, please." ”
After speaking, he raised his eyes and quickly glanced at Sihan's face, "Please come with me, eldest princess." ”
Sihan nodded silently and did not speak.
The guard raised his eyes again and glanced at him and her, and then without further delay, he immediately turned and led the way.
This Luoxia Residence is no different from the size of the previous crescent hall, but in the winding road, it reveals a little hazy and mysterious that cannot be concealed, and the surrounding flowers and trees are set off, but it is particularly elegant.
Along the way, Sihan looked at the surroundings casually, his eyes were complicated, and it was not long before the Loulan guards who led the way in front suddenly stopped and said slightly simply: "Tanglin Eldest Princess, it's here, you can go in." ”
Sihan came back to her senses in response, her cold and cool gaze swept towards Loulan Bingwei, nodded, and then continued to step forward, when she just stood in front of the door, she slowly raised her hand, pushed slightly, and when the door of the house was just pushed open, she saw a black shadow suddenly pressing in front of the door, and suddenly hit her.
Suddenly, the sound of flute and laughter in the room suddenly stopped, and the surroundings were silent.
Sihan only felt that the person who bumped into her arms was full of alcohol, and even suddenly reached out and hung her neck steadily.
A strong smell of alcohol penetrated into the nose, and it was disgustingly heavy.
Sihan's brows furrowed terribly, and before she could come back to her senses, the person in her arms actually raised her head slightly, and her smooth and gentle forehead touched her chin, and in an instant, a smiling voice rose slowly, "An Yihou, this king may not be able to drink with you anymore, you see, this king's wife's room, come to pick up this king." ”
Wife's room?
These words entered his ears, Sihan was stunned for a moment, and after forcibly stabilizing his body, he lowered his eyes slightly, and saw the person in his arms, his face was red, his eyes were drunk, and the whole person, how could he have half of the elegance in the day, but the wind and moon were infinite, and he gave people a very amorous meaning for no reason.
This Lan Yeyu also has such an appearance. But it was only after he was drunk that he became so drunk and confused, and he was so evil that he couldn't figure it out.
Skin to skin, the two stood close to each other, and even, Sihan lowered his head slightly, and he could smell the smell of wine all over his body and the warm breath overflowing from his nostrils.
She didn't say anything immediately, her eyes scanning him.
At this moment, a drunken and wicked chuckle suddenly came from not far away, "Why hasn't Ben Hou heard that the regent still has a wife?" As soon as these words fell, his eyes shakily fell towards Sihan, looked at him a few times, and muttered to himself, "This girl looks white, even whiter than my female cub." ”
Shan Zhongze's pupils shrank, and he immediately said competently and resolutely: "An Yihou, don't be rude, this is my eldest princess of Dongling." ”
An Yihou was completely drunk, the whole person was half lying on the low table, his face was laughing and drunk, his eyelids were also very hard to be half open, his eyes looked at Sihan several times, and said vaguely: "What Dongling, what eldest princess." Isn't this girl pretending to be the regent's wife? ”
As he spoke, he seemed to have suddenly thought of something, his face changed slightly, and the gaze that fell on Sihan's face suddenly became a little clearer, "You are the eldest princess of Dongling?" ”
This time, the words blurted out were not as drunk and confused as before, but slightly clear and sharp.
Sihan's face was silent, she didn't speak, she just stretched out her hand slightly, and was about to push Lan Yeyu away who was hanging on her body, but Lan Yeyu hooked her neck very tightly, and the whole person was attached to her, as if she was drunk but inexplicably strong.
Her brows furrowed more and more, only to feel that this Lan Yeyu was abnormally drunk, and when she lowered her eyes to look at him, she saw him open his eyes slightly, looking at her lazily.
She was silent for a moment, stared at him coldly, and then swept her gaze towards the people around the low table in the hall, only to see that those people were all red-faced, stagnant, and drunk, and the capable Fu ghost was lying on the desk in the corner of the wall at this time, as if he had already fainted drunk.
In the hall, Dudu's eyes were slightly clear, but he also seemed to have drunk a lot, and his body was no longer able to sit upright, so he couldn't help but lean on the low table, barely supporting his body and sitting slightly.
"Ben Hou's words, didn't you hear them?"
Seeing that Sihan didn't reply for a long time, An Yihou asked again intermittently.
His head was dizzy, but even so, he was able to keep a little clear. I have to say that the name of the eldest princess of Dongling, he is like thunder, not because of how famous the eldest princess of Donglin is, but because of the fact that his girl often flies pigeons and spreads books to him about the deeds of the eldest princess of Dongling.
Able to cooperate with the regent of Tanglin Zhou. The character of Xuan, since it is also not to be underestimated, and now he has seen it with his own eyes, he feels that his girl is not wrong, this Tanglin eldest princess, although the appearance is superior, this is like a vase of golden branches and jade leaves, but this is just an appearance, the eyes of the eldest princess of Tanglin, but it is cold and gloomy, a woman who can have such sharp eyes, how can it be, a brainless and incompetent person.
Thoughts were churning and swaying, and a stream of complexity gradually spread, An Yihou pressed his mind more and more forcefully, his arms were also supported on the table, and he adjusted his posture slightly, and then stared at Sihan closely, waiting for her to reply.
