Chapter 234: Attracting the Snake (1)
Flowers cover the willow protection, Fenglou Dragon Pavilion.
The Yuntai Hall is surrounded by pearls and jades, the colored pendants are jingling, more than a dozen girls dance with singing, and everyone raises their glasses and laughs during the banquet, which is very lively. Ji Erlan sat in the middle of a group of female dependents, looking at the man under the emperor's head through the plain yarn. I saw that he was in his fifties, with a graceful demeanor in his side hat, a gentle but noble smile, and he was the most beloved royal relative of the Da'an Dynasty - Duan Wangye.
King Duan helped the emperor a lot in his early years, but later gradually withdrew from the government, asked for a fief, and went to the world. However, he suddenly returned to the dynasty this time, but I don't know why. The emperor held a banquet to greet this imperial uncle, with a smile on his face, which showed his respect and respect for King Duan.
The courtiers handed over the cups and changed the lamps, but they did not delay their eyes and ears, and their eyes lingered on the uncle and nephew from time to time. There is a lot of speculation in my heart. Although there are no eyebrows, everyone knows that the emperor and the queen mother have been very tense recently, and the relationship between King Du and the mother and son seems to be getting more and more stale.
Could it be that Duan Wang Ye saw something and came back to sit in town to avoid chaos? No matter what everyone thinks, there is a sense that the mountain rain is coming.
"Girl, the eldest prince of the Yan family has been watching you here, for fear that it will cause gossip." Twilight poured a glass of fruit brew for Ji Erlan and whispered in her ear.
Ji Erlan sneered lightly and said, "He just did it on purpose, let him do it, I want to see who can beat whom!" ”
Although Yan Hong's secret talisman cannot be exchanged for the emperor's trust, he is a stunning champion after all, and the emperor appointed him as the supervisor of the country, with a low grade and a leisurely position, which can be regarded as a round of his face. However, the emperor's real intention is, of course, to control him in his hands, after all, he is a descendant of the Boling Cui clan and has a great relationship with the Qinghe Cui clan.
Twilight Chun's face cautiously did not show a different color, but said in a low voice, "The slave is a little worried about the family. ”
When Ji Erlan heard this, he lifted his eyelids and glanced at Yan Hong, then moved away and whispered, "Sooner or later, I have to take this step." ”
Yan Hong, like her, is racing against time today. Since you want to deal with her, you must find a way to contact Tang Nian, today she enters the palace to drink and feast and is not in the mansion, and the other party's actions will be much more convenient. She dared to block, Yan Hong would not let go of this opportunity.
Seeing that the Qin clan who was sitting on the side was looking sideways, Du Chun hurriedly stopped. Qin said: "Er Lan, which one is Scholar Wang?" ”
The Qin family received the edict, and at this time she was also a fateful woman, and it was inevitable that she would tremble when she entered the palace for the first time, and she did not dare to make a wrong step, this was the first time she had spoken.
Ji Erlan knew that she cared about Ji Rong, so she said: "Scholar Wang is in the third position on the left in front of my father, and the one with gray hair is. ”
Qin looked over, looked at it carefully for a long time, nodded and stopped talking. Ji Erlan lowered his eyes and had nothing to say. On the other side, Yan Hong sat in the corner, looked at Ji Erlan's direction, raised the corners of his lips and smiled: "It seems that between this mother and daughter, it has really dropped to the freezing point." ”
Knowing that, he knelt half behind him, and said in a low voice: "Childe's arrangement today will definitely make the contradiction between them go to a higher level." ”
Yan Hong's fingers pinched the cup and turned it slowly, watching you come and go everywhere, he didn't care about the neglect he suffered, but he had very doubts about Tang Nian's affairs in his heart. It stands to reason that Tang Nian is just a third-class maid by Ji Erlan's side, and she shouldn't often wait in front of her on weekdays. Even if Tang Nian liked Ji Erlan and didn't have to do those trivial things, he shouldn't stay in the courtyard all day and never walk around the house. But Ji Tianjiao said that he had never seen Tang Nian in the house.
But no matter what it was for, he had to contact Tang Nian.
The hall was illuminated by many lights, more than a dozen girls surrounded a woman wearing gold silk yarn in the middle, the woman's eyebrows were clear and beautiful, her hands were raised to the air, like Chang'e exploring the moon, her body leaned slightly, her left leg stretched out to the side, pulled away the large skirt, raised her head and turned her head slightly, more beautiful.
……
"Goo, goo-" In the hazy night, there was a sudden low cooing of owls, breaking the silence around the Ji Mansion. The masked man had been squatting on the old banyan tree behind the mansion for nearly two hours, and he saw that the night was getting thicker. He re-tied the mask on his face, tiptoed, and flew down into the courtyard wall of the empty mountain building.
Lanterns hung all over the eaves, and the masked man avoided the light, intending to find it little by little according to the route he had calculated in his mind. As long as Tang Nian is still alive, he must be in this square inch courtyard. He was about to move his steps, when he heard someone say: "Tang Nian, you really don't paint much like this, you are smart and expressive, and you embroider it like a living thing, and even the girl praises it." ”
A woman whispered, "If Sister Twilight is there, I will only draw these, and the needlework will be far worse than yours." ”
The masked man didn't have much contact with Tang Nian, but this voice was indeed very similar to Tang Nian's voice, and he secretly said in his heart: Yan Hong is right, how could Ji Erlan know that Tang Nian was related to him, and there was no reason to guard against Tang Nian, as for why Ji Tianjiao said that she didn't see Tang Nian, maybe it was just that she was playing tricks on herself. The masked man scoffed at the woman's set. He took a few steps closer to the room, pressed his back against the sash, and listened carefully to the sound of the room.
Twilight said, "After all, you used to be a young lady of everyone, where can you be like us, and never leave your hands for needlework all day long." ”
Tang Nian looked up at Twilight Winter and Twilight Rain, and said, "What Miss Everyone, why don't you mention the past, now I, like you, am a person who serves the girl." ”
Since Ji Erlan began to explore the affairs of the Tang family from her, she was not allowed to take half a step out of the courtyard, and there were always people around her on weekdays, looking at her without leaving her sight for a moment. But Tang Nian didn't think this was protection, it was more like house arrest. And Ji Erlan's attitude towards her was not polite, and occasionally showed a look of disgust. Although she didn't understand why, she couldn't help it, she couldn't take the initiative to contact Brother Yan, so she could only wait!
Outside, the masked counted people from all over the empty mountain, waiting for the opportunity. He knew that there was a girl who knew kung fu here, although he didn't have to take it seriously, but he couldn't take it lightly, the other party couldn't hurt himself, but he might hurt Tang Nian.
"Let Yuexi go to get food, why is it so slow, I think she is afraid that she will forget about us and steal food in the kitchen by herself." Twilight looked at the doorway and muttered.
Twilight giggled and said, "Moon's breath, that glutton, it's very likely. ”
Yuexi came from the cloister with a sneeze, walked to the door, pushed open the door, and said, "I heard you speak ill of me from afar!" ”
As soon as the words fell, a strong wind hit the back of the moon's intuition head. However, instead of being shocked, she lifted the corner of her lips and smiled. With a very tricky and strange movement, he quickly circled behind the masked man, slammed it over, and smashed the food box in his hand towards the masked man.
There was no food in it, only various powders, which suddenly penetrated the masked man's nose.
The masked man was not surprised, raised his eyes and looked into the room, only to see Twilight and Twilight quickly get up, hold Tang Nian on the left and right, and retreat to the inner room. Tang Nian panicked and asked repeatedly, "Sister Twilight, Twilight Rain, what's going on?" ”
The two of them didn't speak, seeing that the masked man was entangled by the moon's breath, they dragged her straight into the inner room regardless of Tang Nian's doubts and struggles. When Tang Nian stood upright, she only felt that a few black shadows around her had rushed out from her side, and she realized that everything today was arranged, who were they going to use themselves as bait to lure? Tang You want to come and go, there is only Brother Yan! But how could Ji Erlan know that she had a relationship with Brother Yan?!
It was too late, and the dark guards hidden in the house and outside had already surrounded the masked man, and the moon breath dodged the masked man's palm wind, retreated behind the dark guard, and observed the situation.
The medicinal powder spilled out of the food box didn't seem to have an effect on the masker, and the other party's movements were extremely fast, and one person resisted the attacks of more than a dozen people and still didn't fall behind. Yuexi frowned and whispered to a place: "Hey! Geezer! You still don't make a move? If it's bad for the girl, be careful and suffer! ”
There was a strange laugh from the corner, and the light body kung fu of the Wansheng Daoist was beyond even Ji Erlan's reach, and his steps were extremely light, like a cat, and he came out silently. "Hmph, that's the second thing she's asking me to help with!" ”
"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and arrest him!"
When the masked man heard this voice, he was horrified: "Ten Thousand Beings Dao Man! How did you end up here?! ”
Wansheng Daoren raised his eyebrows: "Aoyo, it's still an acquaintance?" Hurry up and take off your mask and let me see, who are the demons and monsters?! ”
The masked man snorted coldly, and the cold blade in his hand slammed back and forth a few times, and he was about to withdraw and retreat when his feet moved down, but the Wansheng Dao man's methods were slippery and tight. Although his kung fu is not as good as the other party, he has many strange moves, and there are many secret guards to cooperate, and he will be embarrassed to bully the masked man for a while. The dark guard on the side saw the opportunity, opened the knife net prepared in advance, and instantly caged the masked man in it!
The masked man felt only to be stabbed in various parts of his body, followed by a wave of dizziness, and he lost consciousness in a moment.
Seeing this, Wansheng Daoist couldn't help but stretch out his finger and tear off the mask on the man's face through the knife net, and a mediocre and pale face with little blood appeared in front of everyone. Wansheng Daoist sighed: "Who is this person, I haven't seen it!" ”
Yue Xi said: "But since he knows you and has such martial arts, he shouldn't be an unknown person, think about it again!" Maybe the girl will be in a good mood and reward you with a few pots of good wine! ”
Wansheng Daoist rolled his eyes and said, "Hey! Who is rare. ”
However, he still walked up to the masked man, squatted down and looked at it carefully for a long time, and then pinched the other party's face carefully to make sure that there was no disappearance on his face, and shook his head and said, "I really don't know ......."
Yuexi said helplessly: "In that case, take him away and lock him up, and wait for the girl to decide!" ”
