Where to go
Wen Dongli pondered for a long time in his seat, since it was a troupe in the palace, why there were assassins among them......
"You're frightened, is Miss Jingli okay?" Nan Qi Jun asked.
Jing Li never thought that this assassin would come at her, and the whole house thought that she was the person who should not be assassinated, how could someone kill herself for such a smart and clever girl? The old lord of the kingdom above this hall had a strange temper and a hypocritical face, so why didn't this assassin kill him? Weird, weird......
"Returning to the country, Jing Li is fine, hehe...... It's okay......" Jing Li hooked her little finger and smirked at the lord of the country, but she didn't know that she had a hard ideological struggle in her mind.
The lord of the kingdom immediately summoned the torture envoy under the table, and ordered with dissatisfaction, "Chen torture envoy, these assassins are handed over to you to deal with, and you will definitely find out the mastermind behind this scene for the widow!" ”
"Yes!" His Royal Highness, an old minister, knelt in front of the palace to receive the order.
The county lord of Dongran squinted at Helian Sheng beside him and asked, "His Highness Helian?" ”
Helian Sheng came to his senses after hearing the sound and said, "It's okay~"
"I just saw that His Highness has been looking at Miss Jingli in a daze, is His Highness worried about Miss Jingli?" The county lord of Dongran broke this banquet with one word.
Helian Sheng pretended to be calm, raised his glass and drank casually, and said, "We encountered this incident when we first arrived in Nanqi, and I am afraid that the safety of my fellow disciples and brothers will ...... in the future."
The county lord of Dongran naturally understood that their identity was special, and how many eyes were staring at them in the dark.
"Your Highness is too worried, even if someone wants to harm you, they are not easy to do in this Nanqi Shen Palace." The county lord of Dongran raised his glass and toasted to Helian Sheng.
Helian Sheng's eyes met the eyes of the county lord of Dongran, this county lord was smarter than Jing Li, and he kept his eyes everywhere when he spoke.
After the Assassins were arrested, the atmosphere at the banquet was gloomy and there were not many words, until the banquet was over, Jing Li only remembered that there were Assassins trying to harm herself at the night banquet today, and she did not remember anything else.
The night banquet dispersed, and Prince Lingqu personally sent Wen Dong back to the mansion, and the two couldn't help chatting on the way.
"Your Highness has something to say...... Wen Dong looked at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who was walking side by side with him, and raised his eyes and asked.
Chen Lingqu sighed and said frankly, "I really shouldn't have invited you to come to Nanqi at this time......
Wen Dong said to him, "Your Highness, no matter when, this trip to Huang Yu will come after all, the crown prince is fighting for the prince, and it is Huang Yu's responsibility to save the people of Li from fire and water." ”
Chen Lingqu knew Wen Dong's temperament, so he reluctantly agreed. patted Wen Dong on the shoulder, pointed to a small stone table in the East Garden, and said, "That stone table is Lingtuo's favorite place to stay in the palace before, we often play chess and chat here, and now it seems to be a lot more deserted......
Wen Dong looked at the stone table under the moonlight, maybe he could now gradually understand the loneliness in Lingtuo's eyes. Prince Lingqu then stopped in the corridor of the East Garden, clenched his fists and said, "I'll send the Lord of the Wen Pavilion here......
Wen Dong saw the prince go away, and the black clouds covered the moon, and the lacquered tiles in the palace were cold and clear.
In the early morning, Wen Dong consulted the books of the Southern Qi Dynasty in the Zhihua Palace, there was a book pavilion in the house, which hid all the books of the Southern Qi Dynasty, and Wen Dong would come here to read them in his spare time, one was to prepare for tomorrow's lectures, and the other was to consult the music of the Southern Qi Dynasty in the Qing Ci tune.
"Let me in, I'm going to find our Pavilion Master Wen!"
"Girl, no one can enter the Zhihua Palace without His Royal Highness the Prince's hand jade to disturb the Wendong Pavilion Lord, and I forgive you for not letting you in." The guard stopped his hand at the door.
Wen Dong held a bamboo slip in his hand, suddenly heard that there was movement outside the house, raised his head and walked along the sound, it turned out that Jing Li was fighting with this guard outside the door, this girl obviously did not take advantage, and was sitting outside the house with her cheeks and waiting.
Wen Dong walked to the door and asked, "What's going on outside the door?" ”
The guard at the door replied, "This girl doesn't have the prince's hand, and she insists on breaking into Zhihua Palace." ”
When Wen Dong heard this, he took off the hand jade on his waist, walked to Jing Li's side and hung it on her waist for her, turned his head and said, "This is my Huangyu's main pavilion disciple, if she has something to do here, let her in." ”
The guards said in unison, "Yes!" ”
Jing Li glared, walked in front of the guards angrily, turned around and grimaced at them, "Slightly!" ”
Wen Dong took Jingli to the library, put the books he had sorted out a morning on the table, and then asked, "Girl, what are you looking for me?" ”
Jing Li looked around at the study pavilion on the Wen Pavilion Lord's mansion, and exclaimed, "This His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is too eccentric, such a good mansion for the Wen Pavilion Lord, and such a big study pavilion, hey......"
After Jing Li sighed for a while, Bibi said with his fingertips, "Pavilion Lord Wen, I want to go and see the young man who wanted to assassinate me yesterday ...... the palace."
When Wen Dong heard this, his eyebrows rose and he said, "Oh? Why? ”
Jing Li immediately leaned on Wen Dong's desk and said, "Pavilion Master Wen, do you remember the young man who blocked our way before we entered the city, he was the one who wanted to assassinate me yesterday!" I don't understand why a smart and lovely girl like me would kill me, I just want to ask for it! ”
After Wen Dong sorted out the books on the table, he got up and straightened out his clothes, looked down at Jing Liyan and said, "Let's go, I'll accompany you." ”
Jing Li looked at Pavilion Master Wen with wide eyes, then got up and tiptoed to touch Pavilion Master Wen's forehead with his hand, and said, "I heard me right, Pavilion Master Wen, you agreed?" ”
Wen Dong said with a smile, "I also want to hear why that young man wants to kill you......"
The two accompanied them to the Nanqi Criminal Prison Division, a place where criminals are detained, not only by the Chengguan River, but also just a few steps away from the mass graves on the mountain. Jing Li was the first time he had come to the Prison Division, the dungeon here was dimly lit, the air was full of rancid and musty smells, and many prisoners were tightly chained, and they watched in confusion as Wen Dong and Jing Li walked past the prison, their bracelets banging on the ground in protest.
Jing Li immediately hugged Wen Dong's arm and asked timidly, "This is the dungeon?" ”
Wen Dong looked down at Jing Li and said, "Let's go......"
"What is the matter with Pavilion Lord Wen coming here today?" The prisoner Chen ran out of the prison sweating profusely and said with a flattering face.
Wen Dong's eyes bypassed the prison envoy Chen in front of him, and the prison behind him was the young man in the palace yesterday.
"Say it or not, believe it or not, I'll beat you to death!" The officials in the prison whipped the wicked and wicked.
Seeing this, Wen Dong bypassed the Chen prison envoy in front of him, rushed in and grabbed the envoy's arm, and said, "Stop." ”
Chen's prison envoy immediately ran in and drove the envoy out, and then laughed and said, "My lord, what do you mean by this?" ”
Jing Li walked into the gloomy cell and saw the young man's white clothes being braided and slumped on the straw mat with a blank face, covered with bruises and blood.
"Master Chen, let me ask this kid a few words, you can step back first." Wen Dong turned around and spoke.
Knowing that Wen Dong was a distinguished guest from Huang Yu, the prisoner Chen didn't dare to disobey his intentions, so he nodded and hurriedly retreated.
Jing Li cautiously approached the young man's side, he slowly raised his head as if he felt Jing Li, although the child's face was bloodstained, he could still see his delicate spirit, and his eyes were clear.
"Does it hurt?" Jing Li squatted down and asked.
He nodded, and then said, "Aren't you afraid that I will kill you?" ”
Jing Li was angry now, she stood up and pointed at the young man angrily and said, "Hey? This girl is kind enough to come to see you, why do you want to kill me? ”
The young man tilted his head, stared at the roof of the prison, and a voice came out of his throat, "Hahaha...... Hahaha......"
Wen Dong stepped forward and faced the young man, his eyes showed regret, and he asked, "When did you learn Qing Ci Tune?" ”
The young man was not afraid of what he asked, and said bluntly, "In order to assassinate her, it took me two days to learn, so that I can go to the temple to perform and take the opportunity to assassinate ......."
If Wen Dong is not mistaken, Qing Ci is not something that an ordinary dancer can learn in a short period of time, and the sound of the drum should resonate with the footsteps and be harmoniously integrated, which also requires a person to have a very high coordination rate of spiritual pulse vibration frequency.
"Childe, do you like to sing?" He asked with a smile as he looked at Wen Dong.
As soon as Jing Li heard that it was a play, she immediately became energetic, she stuck to the young man's side and pointed at herself and said, "I! I love to listen to the opera! ”
"Also, how can the children of the mirror family not like to listen to dramas." The boy teased casually.
Wen Dongtu's expression became solemn, and he looked at the young man in front of him, feeling more and more puzzled by this person.
Jing Li suddenly pulled up his arm and asked, "Do you know the Jing Clan?" ”
The boy closed his eyes disdainfully and snorted, "Heh! ”
"This realm is high and cold, frozen in the cold abyss, the bitter water hugs the mountains and flows, and the secluded realm is empty...... "The young man hummed this tune easily.
Jing Li listened, her eyes flashed with a hint of emotion, and her eyes were deep and reminiscent of an old place.
"You're singing about a place......" Jing Li choked up with red eyes.
After the boy finished singing, he opened his eyes happily and said, "Tang Yin Yuan......"
"Do you know the mirror family, do you?" Jing Li shook his arm and asked, she was sure he must know something.
The young man met her gaze through the mask on his face, and he said coldly, "I have long forgotten this thin and cold place......
"You must know, tell me!" Jing Li's emotions were suddenly uncontrollable.
The young man shook off Jing Li's hand and scolded, "I have long forgotten that kind of bleak place! What a mirror family! They should have died a long time ago! ”
The young man's angry red eyes stared at Jing Li viciously, and from his expression, it could be seen that he was extremely disgusted with the Jing clan!
"Let's go! I'm going to get the whip again, don't bother me......" The boy dismissed the two in a low voice.
Wen Dong pulled up the mirror, turned around and was about to leave, when the young man behind him suddenly said, "Hey! The pavilion master of the phoenix feather promised me one thing, let those dancing girls go, they are just members of the opera troupe, they are innocent, and they should not be implicated with me. ”
Wen Dong turned around and looked at the young man in front of him and asked, "Why do you think I will promise you......
"Because you are from the Phoenix Feather ......" The young man didn't say much, he understood that Wen Dong would agree to his request, because the people of the Phoenix Feather were burdened with the only remaining world in the world.
Wen Dong was satisfied with his answer, he bowed deeply to the young man with satisfaction, and then asked, "What's your name?" ”
The young man raised his head, his dirty hair draped in front of his forehead, and he bit the bloody stains on the corner of his mouth and said, "Where to go, where to return to nowhere......"
