Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Search for the Criminals
The Royal Palace is really magnificent, and it is brightly lit even at night. However, if it is a sparsely populated place, there will only be a candle flame at a distance of a dozen steps.
Xiao Yimeng hunched his body and bent his waist, following the cyan light all the way, and soon came to a building.
This building is a small two-story building with a long ridge, which is said to be small, but in fact it looks like it can accommodate twenty or thirty people. The roof of the building is paved with cyan tiles, the brass wind chimes are hung under the eaves, the wall is dark brown, the window frame is vermilion, there is a lake in front of the building, there is a mountain in the back, surrounded by pine and willow, and there is also an elegant color.
Xiao Yimeng heard Yinwen's introduction that this place is called the Eight Immortals Pavilion, which is a place established by the emperor to recruit talented literati from all over the world. They are all men who come here, and they all lead the way in talent and literature. Through hard work and continuous study, they improve their own level, the purpose is to gain the favor of the emperor, so that they can rise to the top and gain fame and fortune.
It sounds like the scenery is infinite, but here, like Lan Xiuxuan, is just the emperor's private pet paradise. Everything was established to please the emperor, and there was no thought for the sake of the common people, looking at the grass and trees, bricks and stones in the Genyue Mansion, which is not the people's fat and people's ointment. Xiao Yimeng scoffed at this.
The green silk thread crossed a rockery and sank into a grove not far from the lake. Sneaking slowly, Xiao Yimeng finally saw two figures inside.
A man and a woman, the man didn't know each other, and he was vaguely aware of the light blue gown. The woman turned out to be Yuzhu. A dark purple dress is just right for the night. Wasn't she taken to Zhiyun Hall? How did it come out?
Puzzled, Xiao Yimeng leaned forward to hear what they had to say.
I saw the man's face anxious and said, "Why are you so careless?" didn't get the piano score, and even the jade pendant was snatched away. ”
Yuzhu complained coquettishly: "Gongzi Jiang, you don't care about other people, you just think about that broken piano score." I've suffered a lot of sins in Zhiyun Hall. ”
The man also felt that he was a little out of shape, and hurriedly said, "Miss Yuzhu, I'm sorry, I'm too excited." That 'Seven Days of Mourning Piano Score' is so important to me, if I can practice the above tunes, I will definitely become famous at the Chrysanthemum Banquet." When the time comes, how about taking you out of this Genyue Mansion and going to live a happy life together? ”
"It's good, but how can it be so easy to get out, as soon as you enter the palace gate, it's as deep as the sea!"
"As long as I can become the chief luthier of Genyue Mansion, these are not problems." As he spoke, the man secretly touched Yuzhu's jade hand, "You didn't get hurt when you went to Zhiyun Hall, right?" Have you ever been bullied? ”
Yuzhu half-pushed and half-leaned on his body: "You are still worried about the slave family, I was really worried when I first went, and Aunt Qian didn't embarrass me when I came there, she just warned me not to cause trouble before the chrysanthemum banquet, and then let me go." Of course, she has no less benefits, and my father has spent a lot of money on her in the past two years. ”
"What if the jade pendant is taken away by the six princes?"
"Don't worry, I'll ask the six princes for the next few days. I didn't find the score of the Seven Deadly Qin in Jun Xiu's room, it seems that I have it with me, and I will ask Aunt Xu to find a reason to search for it. ”
Seeing that she had arranged it so carefully, the man was somewhat relieved.
Just then, a strong gust of wind struck. Dead leaves flew wildly, the lake was slightly wrinkled, and a figure floated past Xiao Yimeng's side.
The movement also disturbed the man and woman, and as soon as the two of them turned around, Lan Lingyu was already standing in front of them.
Dressed in a moon-white robe, with jet-black hair, and a slender and thin figure, he seemed to come to the underworld in the night.
Lan Lingyu ignored the two frightened expressions, the blue light flashed in his hand, and the divine beast on the prisoner ox jade pendant shot out two rays of light, like a bundle of immortal ropes, tightly binding the two of them.
"Y-Who are you?" The man asked in a low voice, holding back the fear in his heart. The reason why he didn't dare to shout for help was because it was taboo to meet the women in the house privately.
"You don't know me?"
"Don't know? Who are you? What are you going to do? ”
Lan Lingyu wondered in her heart, the person in front of her was obviously her apprentice Jiang Siyong, why didn't she recognize herself? Is it a trick or is there something else going on?
His fingering moved slightly, and a dark green light poured into the green light, and followed the light into the man's body.
It's strange, why didn't he resist half a point? It doesn't seem to know his own poisoning technique. You must know that what he just did was 'Thousand Gu Devouring Nights', and anyone who fell for this poison would be tormented by Gu worm bites every three nights. When the night begins and ends at dawn, it is more painful than dying directly, and it is painful to live.
"What's the name of the man next to you?" Lan Lingyu thought for a moment, and suddenly turned her head and asked Yuzhu.
"Jiang Siyang." Yuzhu replied timidly.
"Why haven't you changed your name for a long time?"
"I haven't changed my name, I'll be called Jiang Siyang."
"Then what does Jiang Siyong have to do with you?".
There is only one word missing from the name, if you really want to change your appearance, you can't just change one word, not to mention that the appearance and voice are almost exactly the same, isn't it......
