Chapter 156: Thrilling 1
Everyone is plotting, and the day of the final is approaching. The choice for the final was on the Imperial City Avenue, where almost all the shops were closed. People can spend a little money to see the excitement. This is also the practice of every five-year general election.
Comparatively speaking, people from the outer city want to enter the inner city to check more strictly. Families with connections in the inner city moved in early. The major families have also been lively for a few days, and discord is not uncommon.
"Sister, we also closed the shop to cheer you on, okay?" There are still two days left, and Xiao Rou and Xiao Qiang are pestering the poplars.
"You can cheer on your sister, and it's almost the same to see the excitement. Stay at home obediently, and my sister doesn't have to be distracted. Poplar refused.
"Sister, Sister Ling said that she would follow me every step of the way, and Hu Yi and Hu Er would also protect Xiaoqiang closely. You can concentrate on participating in the finals, and our security sister will not have to worry. ”
"Yes, your sister is not worried about Aunt Ling's ability. I said sister, my sister has arranged everything that should be arranged. The King of Joy also said that he would let us live in his mansion, and we could also give you a look at the reality of the backyard of the King of Ease. You are worried about Xiaorou Xiaoqiang's safety, and my sister is more worried than you. Poison Zun watched as Poplar interceded for the two children. She must go to the finals, but her little apprentice hasn't agreed to quit the competition. It's more reassuring to have two children with you than to keep them at home.
Thinking of that little apprentice, Poison Zun, he was upset. Yesterday, she summoned Ling Wei out with the contact information of the poison gate.
"Master, you are finally willing to see my little apprentice. You're still so beautiful after more than a decade. When Ling Wei saw her master, she also remembered the face she saw outside the cold palace that night. I was a little puzzled in my heart, if the Scarface man was her master, it must have been her own painting to deliberately scare people.
"Look at what you see, people are not big, they are not good at doing their jobs, and what are you thinking about. What you saw outside the cold palace that night was the master and me. That scarred face was not painted by the master himself. Poison Zun said as he stroked his still somewhat rough face.
"Master, your poison skills are superb again. My brothers and sisters can finally get back to their looks. ”
"Yes, they can't make poison. Either he was poisoned and lost his life, or he disfigured his face. It was the master's incompetence that he didn't research an antidote to restore his appearance in the end. This is also one of the reasons why the master came to Dayan Kingdom, where there are many varieties of flowers that can be used in medicine, but I didn't expect that more than ten years have passed in a flash, and the master himself was unexpectedly disfigured. ”
"Master, you have finally developed the antidote now, and it is worth it for more than ten years in the Great Yan Kingdom."
"Little girl, the master doesn't have that ability. The antidote to restoring appearance is still configured with the help of others. ”
"Ahh Who is more superb than the master's ability to make poison and detoxify. Ling Wei asked in disbelief.
"You know that person, too? You'll meet in a few days at the finals. ”
"Master, you're talking about Sister Bai, right? You asked me to come out with an apprentice today to ask me to give in to the finals. In fact, the apprentice is not Sister Bai's opponent at all in drug production. I couldn't make it to the end against Sister Bai. ”
"Ling Wei, the master wants to ask you to withdraw from the finals. No matter what you achieve, the future is not yours. Do you recognize the fate of being at the mercy of others? ”
"Master, how could Ling Wei not know about this ending? None of my brothers and sisters are qualified to cross the sea with the ship to find you. But we are looking forward to your return to the poison gate, master, day and night, and this task falls on Ling Wei. Even now that Lin Wei promised you to withdraw from the finals, the envoys of Nanchuan would not agree, and the lord of Nanchuan would not agree. Crossing the sea to find a master is a private matter, and representing Nanchuan to participate in the finals is a state affair. Apprentices can die in the finals, and if they retreat, there will be more people involved. If they knew that the master was in the Great Yan Kingdom, the poison sect would also be involved. ”
"Ling Wei, the master didn't expect so much. Poplar Yu has a great kindness to the master, not to help the master restore his appearance. Since you can't withdraw from the finals, the master orders you to help Poplar finish in the top three. If this matter is convenient for the master, it will not be difficult for you as a little girl, your little ability is really not enough to see. ”
"Master, help Sister Bai Ling Wei is willing. It's that the apprentice is worried that his ability is not big enough. Recently, the people of the Great Yan Kingdom have been in contact with our envoys a lot. This is completely different from previous years, the apprentices know a little bit that they are all calculating Sister Bai. ”
"Ling Wei, don't get involved in these things, and don't inquire. Poison is different from other martial arts, and pulling out seedlings to help cramming and absorbing will only harm you. The master can prepare enough antidote to poison for you, but he is worried that you will be nervous and use the wrong one when the time comes. In the finals, you just played at your normal level. This matter is difficult for the master for you. ”
"Why do you bother with a child? Ling Wei was simple and straightforward, and now she couldn't fight those old foxes. Instead of letting her risk for me, I should let her play freely. The finals are changing rapidly, even if my sister is planning now, it is difficult to ensure that there is no omission, a small mistake, it is likely to be a catastrophe. When Poison Venerable came back, Poplar said the same thing about her.
"yes, I originally wanted her to withdraw from the finals and then follow the big boat back to Nanchuan Country. In the future, I will find a good family to marry and live a peaceful life. If she had participated in the finals here, her life would have been up for her. Whether she stays in Dayan Kingdom or returns to Nanchuan Kingdom, her future path is very difficult to walk. ”
"Ling Wei participated in this final because she was looking for you. Otherwise, they may not be qualified to come to the Great Yan Kingdom on a big ship. ”
"Sister, it's still me, the master, who has affected them." Poison Venerable was in a very bad mood that day. I didn't expect to stand on the side of the two children today to go to the finals to watch the excitement.
"Sister Ling, since you must go to see the excitement, don't go to live in the Xiaoyao Mansion so publicly. Baojia Inn live, there is no shortage of silver in Baifu. ”
"Sister, wouldn't it be more flamboyant for you to do this?" Xiao Rou looked at Poplar and said.
"Sister, it occurred to me that there was a safer place. It's just a little desolate. ”
"Sister Ling, they are all children who have suffered hardships. The place you are talking about is of course the most private and safe. It's also closer to the venue for the finals. It's really the best place to be. ”
"Sister, Sister Ling, where is that?" Xiao Qiang asked curiously, although he had never entered the imperial city, he couldn't think of any desolate places in the imperial city.
"The Imperial Palace." Poplar and Poison Zun said together.
That night, Poison Zun sneaked into the palace with two children and a few guards, and went directly to live in the cold palace. lived directly under the nose of the emperor and queen. True to that sentence, the most dangerous place is also the safest place. After the White Mansion was attacked that night, the King of Xiaoyao also secretly returned to the Xiaoyao Palace. It has been more than half a month since I left the Xiaoyao Mansion to detoxify and recuperate in the White Mansion. The fact that the King of Freedom is unconscious and half-dead has been deeply believed by many people. So this time, he sneaked back to the Xiaoyao Palace, but no one found out.
"Lord Wang, I thought you were going to lie in bed and live the rest of your life. The women in the backyard of the palace are already looking for a way out in their own plans. I didn't expect you to come back alive again. The old slave went back to give the concubine Niangniang incense, God blessed the concubine Niangniang in the spirit of the heavens, the prince, you will have a blessing if you don't die. The old housekeeper of the palace said with tears in his eyes.
"Old butler, this king is still lying half-dead on the bed. Let the women in the backyard of the palace leave if they want to leave. Take what belongs to them, take it with you if you want. When I came, I came in with a purpose, and when I left, I didn't bring anything with me. ”
"Lord Wang, this old slave understands that the palace still maintains the appearance of when you are away." The old butler said clearly.
"Isn't it the same as before, a high platform has been erected on the roof?"
"Lord Wang, now that you are not in the house, we have no plans to do that."
"Then plan now. This kind of excitement only comes once in five years, and it is normal to watch the excitement. ”
"The old slave understands, and the high platform can be erected tomorrow. Many people have come to ask if they can still rent our place to watch the excitement. ”
"Yes, it's crowded."
"Lord Wang, it's safe when there are more people." The old butler had already understood what the King of Joy meant, and smiled shrewdly.
