Chapter 378: Fierce Dog
"Bang la la", the pouring rain outside, like beads falling from the sky, splashed on the ground one by one, forming a splash.
"How is she?" Chen Zexuan tensed his body, his thin lips pursed, and the tension suppressed in his voice.
"Rest assured, Prince Ning has returned to King Ning's Mansion with the young lady from the Desperate Cliff." Lei Zi wiped the rain from his face and said respectfully: "Miss's poison has been cured." ”
Chen Zexuan's tightly clenched fist loosened little by little, and he still said with a cold expression: "Why did you get drugged?" Related to the Eight Princes? ”
As soon as the Eighth Prince arrived at King Ning's Mansion on the front foot, Chen Zexuan received the news on the back foot.
The eighth prince found someone to investigate Gu Jinli, and went straight to it in such a hurry, presumably he had already recognized her identity.
Originally, Chen Zexuan was worried that the Eighth Emperor would not be good, but he was afraid that he would startle the snake, so he held back.
After all, now that he and the Eighth Prince are in a cooperative relationship, he should be frank and honest.
Regarding Gu Jinli's "resurrection from the dead", he hid it from the Eighth Prince, which is indeed a bit of a loss.
Because, Gu Jinli's existence is not dispensable in their plans.
She is a very important figure, and she has a great influence in the whole game of chess.
not only affected Qi Hao, but also involved the old grievances of Feng and Qi.
Therefore, Chen Zexuan thought about it and decided to let the Eighth Prince negotiate with Gu Jinli first, and then see how the two talked.
If he rushed directly to King Ning's Mansion, it would expose Gu Jinli's status in his heart, and it would be easy for people to grasp the handle, which would not be beneficial to Gu Jinli or himself.
Second, it will arouse the suspicion of others.
Of course, he was not afraid that the Eighth Prince would do something to Gu Jinli in anger.
How can it be said that the two parties now have a common goal, if they fall out because of this matter, then the eight princes will lose more than they gain.
Because of Chen Zexuan's plotting behind his back, the Eighth Prince gradually had supporters in the court, and more people will be attached to him in the future.
If Chen Zexuan is lost as an ally, presumably those who praise the Eighth Prince on their faces will immediately change their tunes the next day.
The Eighth Prince was finally able to be a little powerful, how could he be willing to give up?
No way, that's human nature.
Lei Zi shook his head and explained, "It's not the Eighth Prince, it's Lady Liu of Qiuju Courtyard." ”
"She knew that the Eighth Prince went to the mansion today, so she let the young lady and the Eighth Prince be drugged."
"Heh, Lady Liu?! Did she eat leopard gall? A trace of killing intent flashed in Chen Zexuan's eyes, and then that killing intent faded in the blink of an eye: "However, this son of the world doesn't plan to kill her." ”
"Shizi?" Lei Zi knew that Chen Zexuan had never been a soft-hearted person, and he was surprised to hear that he didn't kill Mrs. Liu.
Chen Zexuan raised his chin and said quietly: "With the way of others, he will also govern his body." ”
Lei Zi suddenly realized: "What the son of the world means...... Drugged her? ”
Chen Zexuan's eyes darkened, and he said softly: "Find a fierce dog for her." ”
When Lei Zi heard this, his eyes widened.
Drugged Mrs. Liu, a big deal would only make her lose her reputation and be kicked out by Qi Hao on the grounds of fornication with men.
But once you have sex with a dog, the meaning is completely different!
If she is lucky, Mrs. Liu can only be lonely, and she will not let go of even the beasts.
If she were unlucky, she might have died at the hands of the dog......
While secretly sighing in his heart that Chen Zexuan was really the one who would repay him, Lei Zi replied on his lips.
Seeing Chen Zexuan waving his hand, he retreated.
"Xuan'er, how are Qi Hao's eyes?" After Lei Zi left, the man in black who was sitting on the side and did not make a sound suddenly spoke.
Chen Zexuan said: "I heard that it is much better. ”
The man in black asked again, "So, did Sheng'er plant the Gu worm for Qi Hao?" ”
Chen Zexuan said "um", hesitated for a while, and still asked boldly: "Master, the Gu worm in Sheng'er's body really won't ...... her"
It's not that he doesn't trust the man in black, but he cares too much about Gu Jinli and can't tolerate the slightest problem with her.
The man in black interrupted Chen Zexuan as rudely as always, and said in an unhappy tone: "Xuan'er, how many times do you have to ask the teacher to say it before you can believe it?" ”
"Even if you are a teacher who loses the world, it is impossible to do anything to hurt you and Sheng'er!"
Seeing Chen Zexuan looking at him without blinking, he coughed lightly twice, and his face was slightly unnatural.
Immediately, he sighed, seemed to be reminiscing on the side, and seemed to be sighing sadly: "I think back then, as a teacher, your father and Sheng'er's mother, the three of us were born and died several times, and they can be regarded as friends of life and death. ”
"You two brothers and sisters are like my children."
"Although I usually treat you very harshly, what parent in the world doesn't want their children to become big things?"
"What's more, you're not ordinary children!"
"You are the prince and princess of the Feng Kingdom, and you have a heavy responsibility on your shoulders!"
As soon as he mentioned the restoration of the country, Chen Zexuan's heart was extremely heavy.
He lowered his head and said in a muffled voice: "Master has taught Xuan'er carefully for many years, and Xuan'er knows your good intentions. ”
"Xuan'er must live up to Master's expectations and repay her revenge as soon as possible."
After hearing this, the man in black looked much better and nodded with satisfaction.
patted Chen Zexuan on the shoulder, and he was very pleased: "Master knows that you will definitely be able to." ”
I don't know if it's because the man in black has too much strength or because of the psychological effect, Chen Zexuan only felt that a big stone was pressed on his heart, and he was a little out of breath.
Grudgingly smiled, he didn't speak again, but thought in his heart why after so many days, the Lord of the Cloud Country hadn't replied.
In Kiyomizu Temple, Master Jingkong and Xiaoyaozi sit cross-legged on the futon.
Master Jingkong closed his eyes, turned the Buddha beads in his hand, and looked calm.
Xiaoyaozi, who was adjusting his internal force on the side, didn't know if he was disturbed by the sound of thunderstorms outside the window, in short, he just couldn't be as calm as the master of the clear space.
Simply putting away his internal strength, he looked at the Master of Clearance: "Senior brother." ”
The beads in the hands of the Master of Clearance were stunned, and then returned to normal.
His eyelids didn't open, and he said lightly: "Senior brother, hold your breath and do it again." ”
"Senior brother, this time I was seriously injured by that wicked man, and I'm afraid I won't be able to recover my previous strength." Xiaoyaozi sighed dejectedly, and a lock of silver silk fell, which actually added a little old color to him.
Listening to Xiaoyaozi's frustrated words, Master Jingkong still opened his eyes and comforted: "Senior brother, don't be so negative. ”
"It's going to be okay if you recuperate for a while."
"Senior brother, that wicked man knows that you saved me from his hands three times and twice. When he recovers, he will definitely come to you for trouble. Xiaoyaozi smiled bitterly and muttered: "If my skills are still there, I can still resist him with a move and a half." ”
"It's nothing if I die, I'm just afraid that it will affect you."
When the master of clearance heard this, his old eyes were full of emotion.
He moved his lips and closed his eyes again.
Seeing this, Xiaoyaozi also closed his eyes.
Take a deep breath and try to calm yourself down and regain your luck.
Just when Xiaoyaozi thought that Master Pure Space would not speak anymore, he heard his voice low but firm: "Fight to the death, senior brother will also protect you." ”
Xiaoyaozi's nose was sore, her eyelashes trembled, and she held back her tears.
Of course, he didn't know that Master Pure Space had already passed on all his skills to him in order to save his life.
If you really want to protect him, then the Master of Pure Space is really "desperate".
The sandalwood in the incense burner exuded a faint fragrance, and neither of them spoke again, each thinking about his own thoughts.
