Chapter 366: The guest and the host are happy and the thieves are annoyed
Hearing the report of the government soldiers, the eyes of the king of Zhenbei turned pale, and the government soldiers immediately stepped forward quickly, and he didn't know what to say in his ear.
Fu Xiaojiu and Wan Lin looked at the tea bowl in their hands unnaturally, not wanting to show any interest in the family affairs of the Zhenbei Palace.
But the princess and the prince were very concerned about this matter, and their eyes were focused on the face of the king of Zhenbei, and their expressions were probing.
The soldiers quickly finished reporting, and the king of Zhenbei said in a low voice: "This king knows, and this king will go over to deal with it later." ”
"Yes!"
The soldiers bowed their heads and retreated respectfully.
Wan Lin then said with a sense of humor: "Lord Wang, it is really presumptuous for us to come here today, so we will not disturb you to deal with affairs, and we will come to visit another day." ”
King Zhenbei waved his hand and said indifferently: "Don't think about it, there will inevitably be some miscellaneous things in this king's mansion, but how can these miscellaneous things affect this king's reception?" This king has finally met the prince of the world, and it would be rude not to treat you well. You can continue to chat with us here, and we will have lunch together later, and you will not be too late to leave. ”
Since the king of Zhenbei had already said it to this point, he really wanted to keep them for a while, and Wan Lin was no longer in a hurry to leave when he saw this.
In order to ease the serious atmosphere, the princess smiled, looked at Fu Xiaojiu and asked, "Xiaojiu, is your journey too peaceful?" If you have any observations, tell me about them. ”
Fu Xiaojiu put down the tea bowl and wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, "Back to the princess, a lot of interesting things have happened along the way, and the folk girl will tell you about our adventures." ”
Fu Xiaojiu told everything that happened on the road, she was concise and to the point, but vivid, so that the Zhenbei Wang family listened to it with relish and was very enjoyable.
After listening to the process of Fu Xiaojiu going all the way to Beijing, the princess said happily: "You can write a book in these circumstances, it is really lively and thrilling." However, with the blessing of your auspicious star, you can always turn danger into a disaster, and you will always be able to win in danger, and you will never be worried. ”
Shizi said unsatisfactorily: "That Liu Bi is really a poisonous weed, if it weren't for that Xu Zhuangshi who immediately took her life, she was afraid that she would have harmed you and Mr. Wan in the future." If I have the chance, I really want to meet that Xu Zhuang and learn martial arts. ”
King Zhenbei also expressed his feelings after hearing this, "Fu Langzhong not only cured the thief, but also persuaded him to abandon evil and follow good, it is really a person of courage to do this." As the thief said, you not only saved his life, but also the lives of his entire brothers! ”
The princess smiled appreciatively: "I'll just say that Xiao Jiu is a heroine among women!" This time, the prince believes that I am not exaggerating, right? ”
King Zhenbei was very happy, although he had praised Fu Xiaojiu just now, he had not forgotten to observe Wan Lin.
He felt that Wan Lin's appearance was dignified, but he didn't know much about Wan Lin, and he planned to have a good chat with Wan Lin when he had dinner later.
If Wan Lin is really talented, loyal and upright, he will definitely help Wan Lin settle down in the court in the future.
Time passed quickly in the conversation and laughter of several people, and the people knew that there were distinguished guests at home, and they did everything that should be done very carefully without orders, and the dishes for lunch were extremely rich and exquisite, and Fu Xiaojiu and Wan Lin were reluctant to move their chopsticks when they saw it.
King Zhenbei deliberately asked Wan Lin to sit between him and the prince, and the three of them talked about national affairs, but King Zhenbei did not mention the matter of competing for the prince, but showed Wan Lin the structure of the court and the camp in secret.
King Zhenbei didn't make much evaluation of anyone or any thing, and all of them gave their views and analysis of things to Wan Lin.
Wan Lin spoke very measuredly, although he expressed his opinion, he didn't say too deeply.
From Wan Lin's speech, King Zhenbei saw that he was a talented but not showy, thoughtful but not stubborn person, so he admired Wan Lin very much, and decided to wait for Wan Lin to win the examination and become famous, and he would definitely help Wan Lin gain a firm foothold in the capital.
Needless to say, the friendship between the princess and Fu Xiaojiu, the two of them talked about various topics, and the princess said that since she used the upgraded autumn cream that Fu Xiaojiu gave her, her skin is getting better and better, and all the ladies and ladies she knows have been successfully Amway by her, and the people who have used them have complained about her, complaining that she didn't recommend such a useful thing to them earlier.
Fu Xiaojiu did see that although the princess's temperament was becoming more and more noble, she looked a few years younger than when they first met.
The princess is the nobleman of Fu Xiaojiu, and it is precisely because of the princess's best efforts that the business of Fu Xiaojiu's workshop will become more and more prosperous, and now whether it is autumn cream, rouge gouache or ointment, etc., have been sold all over the country.
And the princess looked at the healthy and handsome son, and she was even more grateful to God for letting her meet Fu Xiaojiu at the moment of crisis.
The two of them toasted each other and chatted very happily.
Fu Xiaojiu and Wan Lin were all dyed with a layer of wine on their faces when they finished eating, and the king of Zhenbei arranged a carriage for them, and they must be sent back by the carriage.
The two had to agree, but Fu Xiaojiu asked the carriage to stop two streets away from the inn and walked back to the inn with Wan Lin.
She did this because she didn't want to attract attention, who didn't know the carriage of the Zhenbei Wang family, if someone now felt that they had a lot to do with the Zhenbei Wang family, it would inevitably be moved after the title of the Wanlin Gold List.
The two of them didn't go out when they returned to the inn, they first took a nap, and when the wine woke up, Wan Lin immediately began to read the book, and Fu Xiaojiu also quietly looked at the medical book.
As soon as they left the Zhenbei Wang's Mansion on their front feet, the Zhenbei King went to deal with the matter of the government soldiers coming to report.
This is not a trivial matter, and it is even related to the life of King Zhenbei.
Last night, the Zhenbei Wangfu entered the "thief".
Zhenbei Wangfu is strictly guarded by government soldiers everywhere, and in this case, the thief can sneak into the palace, which is enough to see his kung fu.
It may be that the thief also thinks that he can sneak into the Zhenbei Wangfu quietly, which is too bullish, so he was careless for a while, and when he first arrived at the door of the Zhenbei Wang's study, he didn't notice that on the ground one step away from the door of the study, there was a black rope as thick as a hair tied with a delicate copper bell.
As soon as he lifted his foot, he touched the rope, and the bell rang immediately.
Although the bell was not loud, it was particularly deafening in the quiet late night, and the king of Zhenbei and the soldiers of the palace heard the bell, and an overwhelming net instantly descended from the sky and caught the thief.
When the king of Zhenbei came out, he saw that the thief who was wearing a night suit and covering his face was arrested, so he did not rush to deal with the interrogation, because he still had urgent business to deal with, so he asked the thief to be escorted to the firewood room for a brief interrogation first.
The thief was so good at kung fu that he naturally had to resist desperately, but the net that caught him was a special metal, and as long as he was caught, he couldn't struggle, otherwise the more he struggled, the tighter the net would be, so the thief who was good at kung fu had to be restrained and arrested, and was escorted to the firewood room.
However, after a night of interrogation, they didn't ask anything, and the king of Zhenbei entered the palace early in the morning after a busy night, and as soon as he returned to the house, Wan Lin and Fu Xiaojiu came, so he didn't spare time to interrogate the thief.
At that time, the government soldiers came to tell the thief that he finally spoke, saying that he would only tell his identity and purpose if he saw the king of Zhenbei with his own eyes.
Usually people who listen to such a proclamation will hurry to meet the thief driven by curiosity, but the king of Zhenbei is not an ordinary person, what he thought at the time was: You are a thief who broke into my house, it would be good if I didn't put you on the spot, can I still be called by you to come and go immediately?
King Zhenbei just wanted to hang the thief, not to mention that he was entertaining Wan Lin and Fu Xiaojiu, even if he had nothing to do now, he had to deliberately wait for an hour or two before going to see the thief.
Why don't you say that people are cheap?
The thief thought that if he let out such words, the king of Zhenbei would not be allowed to come to see him.
After the soldiers came back, Necheng wanted to tell him that the prince would arrive soon, but he didn't wait for the prince.
Seeing that two hours have passed, I still haven't seen the shadow of King Zhenbei.
The thief was anxious, and impatiently asked the guards of his house, when will the king of Zhenbei come?
He had never seen a head of a family so inactive in interrogating a thief who broke into his house!
The thief had already prepared to deal with the King of Zhenbei, but the King of Zhenbei did not come to give him the opportunity to show it, and his patience and passion were gradually consumed, and he even felt a little bored.
Suddenly, just when he was guessing whether his coffee position was not enough, he was not looked at by the king of Zhenbei, or the king of Zhenbei really had something important to delay and did not come to interrogate him, he heard the soldiers at the door shouting respectfully and loudly: "Lord Wang!" ”
The king of Zhenbei finally came.
The thief's face instantly showed the kind of lonely waiting resentful woman, and finally looked forward to the excitement of the return of his beloved, and he stared at the door intently.
"Squeak—"
The door to the firewood room was pushed open.
"You shrunken turtle, you dare to come to see me!"
The thief let out the sullen breath in his heart happily.
King Zhenbei raised his eyes slightly, and his narrow Danfeng eyes flashed with two cold lights, facing the thief's eyes full of anger.
"Your look...... Very chic. ”
King Zhenbei looked at the thief who was tightly bound by metal mesh and outlined his strong figure very spicy, and couldn't help but evaluate him first.
Thief: "......"
Although the king of Zhenbei evaluated his appearance calmly, the cold light in his eyes did not decrease, and he walked up to him without hurry, and looked him up and down again.
The thief gritted his teeth and said, "What do I have to look at?" I didn't call you over to keep you looking at me, I have something to say! ”
King Zhenbei suddenly took a step back, stared at the thief with a blank face, and asked, "If you want to say anything to this king, you can come and deliver the post, why do you have to sneak into the palace late at night?" ”
The thief clenched his fists, stretched his neck forward, and said hatefully: "Do you think I am one of those villains who come to beg you for errands and flattery? What I'm going to tell you is nothing else, I'm here to tell you that you're going to die! ”
