Chapter 78: Ulterior Motives

When Bai Shuqin saw Beizhu, before she could ask her about the letter, Beizhu had already handed the letter to her.

She smiled and tapped the tip of Beinagisa's nose and took the letter in her hand.

Zhao Linlang looked at the letter in Bai Shuqin's hand and asked her curiously, "What is this?" ”

"Secret!" Bai Shuqin sells a pass.

She walked into the room inside, and Zhao Linlang also wanted to know the content of the letter, but was kicked out by Bai Shuqin. This letter cannot be known to others.

There are two letters, one of which was written by Nangong Che. He definitely won't let her pay attention to safety, all he cares about is when she can go back, and don't delay their big business.

However, the letter also revealed a piece of news that Han Yu had recently set his sights on Baohetang and had also been to Baifu.

Bai Shuqin's face became heavy, Han Yu's plan, she knew it in her heart. Unless she was willing to agree to his conditions, he would definitely join forces with Bai Shaoan to deal with her.

Han Yu's approach aroused Bai Shuqin's fighting spirit instead, and he wanted her to compromise, but there was no door.

The other letter is a letter written in imitation of Zhuo Jinxuan's handwriting. "Second brother, Shu'er's proposal is feasible. She has her own measure, don't worry. ”

If he hadn't known that it was sent by Nangong Che, even Bai Shuqin would have really thought that it was written by Zhuo Jinxuan.

It's not early tonight, and Zhuo Linfeng should have rested. Bai Shuqin tore up Nangong Che's letter, put away the letter imitating Zhuo Jinxuan, and prepared to give it to Zhuo Linfeng tomorrow.

As soon as it was dawn on the second day, Bai Shuqin knocked on Zhuo Linfeng's door.

Zhuo Linfeng has changed the habit of chanting scriptures every day, but the habit of getting up early is still retained. When he saw Bai Shuqin, he asked her with concern how things were last night.

Bai Shuqin didn't think there was anything to say, so he casually perfunctory, and took the letter to Zhuo Linfeng.

Zhuo Linfeng opened the letter, looked at the content of the letter, and couldn't believe it. But Bai Shuqin's letter to Zhuo Jinxuan has clearly explained the situation.

The competition is not a child's play, and it is very likely to be miscarried. How can Zhuo Jinxuan joke with his child's life?

Zhuo Linfeng carefully checked the letter, the letter paper is a specialty of Guifang in the capital, and the ink is also unique to Qingmen. The handwriting is indeed from Zhuo Jinxuan's hand, and his handwriting is very special and cannot be imitated by ordinary people.

"Second brother, let's talk about it in advance. As long as Jinxuan agrees, you will agree! Bai Shuqin was afraid that he would regret it, so he deliberately emphasized it.

Zhuo Linfeng couldn't go back on what he promised, he folded the letter and said to her: "What I promised, naturally I won't break my promise." But you also have to promise me that your own safety is the most important thing. If you feel in danger, stop the competition as soon as possible! ”

What Zhuo Linfeng said could not be refused, Bai Shuqin nodded, "I know." Second brother, don't worry, I won't joke with my child's life. Moreover, when I left, Jinxuan gave me a golden armor, no problem. ”

Although Bai Shuqin said this, Zhuo Linfeng still couldn't help but worry, but he couldn't regret it.

"Second brother, do you know who the prince of Zhou Guo chose to compete?" Bai Shuqin asked, only knowing oneself and knowing the other has the greatest chance of winning.

Zhuo Linfeng thought for a while and replied: "The candidate over there has not yet been decided, and according to my guess, it is more likely to choose Guo Hu." ”

"Guo Hu? What kind of person is he? "Bai Shuqin doesn't know much about the people of the Zhou Kingdom.

"He is Zhou Yusheng's personal bodyguard, and his martial arts are said to be among the best in the Zhou Kingdom. He is good at eating long knives, and he can lift the tripod at the age of twelve. "Zhuo Linfeng Road.

Bai Shuqin probably knew in his heart that usually the speed of people with strength type was weak. But even if it's a weakness, it's not too bad.

If you want to beat him, the best way is to move a thousand pounds.

"Can you take me to see Guo Hu?" Bai Shuqin asked.

Zhou Yusheng's place of residence is not far from Zhuo Linfeng, he thinks he is the prince, and looks down on the unfavored Zhuo Linfeng, and the two have little intersection on weekdays.

Zhuo Linfeng was also reluctant to contact Zhou Yusheng, but he hoped that Bai Shuqin would take the initiative to withdraw after seeing Guo Hu's strength, so he said, "Wait a minute, let's go over and visit Zhou Yusheng together." ”

Zhou Yusheng lives in Anhe Palace, and his battle on this trip is not small, and there are hundreds of people in his entourage alone. In comparison, Zhuo Linfeng's twenty or thirty people looked a little shabby.

Zhuo Linfeng prepared some casual gifts and took Bai Shuqin to meet Zhou Yusheng.

The first time Zhou Yusheng saw Bai Shuqin, his eyes straightened. His eyes were close to Bai Shuqin, and his look of surprise seemed to have found a priceless treasure.

Zhuo Linfeng was slightly dissatisfied with his behavior, coughed lightly, and handed the gift to Zhou Yusheng, "Prince Zhou, thank you for coming to visit me last time." This is a thank you gift, and I hope I don't dislike it. ”

The entourage next to Zhou Yusheng took the salute casually, and he laughed and put his arm around Zhuo Linfeng's shoulder, "You and I are brothers, what's polite!" Let's go, say inside! ”

After he finished speaking, his eyes skimmed to Bai Shuqin next to him.

Bai Shuqin followed Zhuo Linfeng to the left, her eyes looked at the people in the courtyard, and she didn't find any person who was a master.

After entering the room and sitting down, Zhou Yusheng's eyes were still lingering on Bai Shuqin. "Why hasn't this girl seen it before, you are a golden house hidden Jiao!"

Zhuo Linfeng replied to him politely, "She is a guard in the house, at the invitation of Princess Linlang, she just entered the palace in the past few days." Why didn't you see your bodyguard today? ”

Although Prince Zhou was dull, he knew what he meant. However, he thought that no one around Zhuo Linfeng was Guo Hu's opponent at all, and he didn't hide it, "Your competition is ruthless enough, I'll let him practice how to quickly solve the Nine Links." ”

Prince Zhou said with a smile. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon by your side, such a competition is sure to win. When the time comes, please save me some face. Zhuo Linfeng said with a smile.

Zhou Yusheng's eyes looked at Bai Shuqin, and he joked with Zhuo Linfeng, "I really envy you for having such a big beauty by your side!" ”

Bai Shuqin only felt disgusting in his heart when he heard this, his appearance was not even half of Zhuo Linfeng's. There are also acne marks on the wide face, and although he is well-dressed, he still can't hide his oiliness.

"I heard that the beauties of Zhou are like clouds, and Prince Zhou is surrounded by beauties, which makes the world envious." Zhuo Linfeng said quietly.

"Where are those women like her! If Brother Linfeng is willing, I will exchange ten beauties with you, how about it? Zhou Yusheng asked.

Zhuo Linfeng picked up the teacup, glanced at Bai Shuqin, and said with a smile: "Lan Xin, she was born lowly, how can she be worthy of you." ”

Zhou Yusheng felt that Zhuo Linfeng just didn't want to cut love, with such a beauty by his side, no wonder he would come up with a difficult competition between the two sides, it was really cunning.

Since he couldn't see Guo Hu, Zhuo Linfeng didn't want to stay longer, so he took a sip of tea and said, "Prince Zhou, I still have some things, so I won't bother." ”

Zhou Yusheng sent the two of them outside the door and looked at the back of Bai Shuqin leaving, "It's a pity that such a beautiful woman actually followed a sick seedling!" ”

Bai Shuqin's ears were sensitive, and when he heard his words, he really wanted to go over and beat him.

Zhuo Linfeng noticed that her face was a little angry, thinking that it was Zhou Yusheng's flirtation just now, and blamed himself a little: "I was wrong just now, and I wronged you." ”

"What's wrong with you? That week, Hanyu obviously didn't take you seriously, so he would so blatantly beat the idea of the people around you. Bai Shuqin was unfair to him.

This kind of thing is not the first time Zhuo Linfeng has encountered it, if it weren't for Bai Shuqin's anger, he would have almost gotten used to it.

He smiled, "You don't have to be angry with me, isn't this the way this world is?" If I had been healthy and loved by my father, not so much would have happened. ”

Although Zhuo Linfeng was laughing, Bai Shuqin felt that this smile was more bitter than crying.

"Second brother, how are you feeling lately?" She tried to change the subject.

"Seems to be better."

Bai Shuqin smiled, "It seems that Beizhu's hard work has not been in vain!" Recently, she has been checking medical books day and night, constantly improving the prescription, hoping to cure the old diseases in your body as soon as possible! ”

Zhuo Linfeng remembered that little girl, her eyes were so special. He felt warm in his heart, stretched his eyebrows and smiled: "Thank you to the little girl for me, no matter whether I can cure my old illness or not, I will remember her heart for a lifetime." ”

Bai Shuqin snickered, if Beizhu heard this, he should be very happy, after all, Zhuo Linfeng was her first love for the first time as a girl.

However, Bai Shuqin also felt a little troubled, Zhuo Linfeng would marry Zhao Linlang. There is no room for a third person in love, although it is a little cruel, but for the sake of Beizhu, she still kills this budding relationship in swaddling clothes.

In the past two days, Zhao Tingxuan would often come to visit Bai Shuqin, and tell her about his various deeds when he was young, as if he regarded her as a New Year's friend.

Bai Shuqin was not interested in the story of the emperor, but there was one thing that attracted Bai Shuqin's attention.

Zhao Tingxuan was originally just a prince, and the last emperor was his imperial brother, named Zhao Che. This Zhao Che was poisoned to death, and the person who poisoned him was his concubine, and after his death, the concubine also took medicine and died.

Bai Shuqin always felt that things were not so simple, as far as she inquired, the concubine was originally a girl bought by Zhao Tingxuan in Hongyan Pavilion.

If this is the case, I am afraid that this Zhao Tingxuan was a usurper back then.

"Sister Bai, why are you so interested in this matter?" Beizhu was a little puzzled, she felt that Bai Shuqin must have other intentions.

Bai Shuqin looked at Zhao Guo's Shi Zhi, "There must be something else behind this matter, don't you want to know?" ”

Although Beizhu also felt that something was wrong, he didn't care very much. However, seeing that Bai Shuqin was so interested, she had an idea that could help her.

"Sister Bai, I have a way to know what happened back then!"

Bai Shuqin put down the book, she knew that Southern Xinjiang was a magical place, but it seemed impossible to see the past, right?

Seeing that she was a little unconvinced, Beizhu said with great certainty, "It's really possible, in the middle of the night at the place where they died, you can know the ins and outs of the matter through the crystal ball!" ”

Bai Shuqin raised the corners of his mouth, "It's true or not, try it tonight and you'll know!" ”

At night, Bai Shuqin sent Zhao Linlang out early under the pretext of going to bed early, and then secretly came to the place where Zhao Che died with Beizhu with a lantern.

It was originally the Imperial Garden, but after this incident, Zhao Tingxuan built a high palace wall to seal the entire Imperial Garden, and built another Imperial Garden elsewhere.

Bai Shuqin let Beizhu hold the lantern, squatted down and said to her, "Come up!" ”

Beizhu hesitated a little, and Bai Shuqin urged again: "You're so light, it's okay." If we don't hurry, we'll be discovered. ”

As soon as Beizhu heard that he was discovered, he lay on Bai Shuqin's back and asked her to jump onto the palace wall with her on her back and enter the imperial garden.

The garden was overgrown with weeds, and it was extremely depressed under the moonlight. The wind blows, and the grass rustles.

Beizhu clenched Bai Shuqin's hand, and said in a voice trembling with fear: "Sister Bai, there won't be a ghost here, right?" ”

"After so many years, even if you become a ghost, you should have been reincarnated a long time ago." Bai Shuqin concentrated on finding the place where Zhao Che died at that time.

According to the historical records, the place where they died was under the osmanthus tree. The imperial garden is not big, it is not small, and it is not easy to find an osmanthus tree.
