Chapter 111: Praying Mantis Catches Cicadas (2)
"Two guard brothers, this pastry is really delicious, do you want to eat some too?" Cuiliu smiled flatteringly: "Just think of it as a help, I'll prepare a good daughter red gift for the two eldest brothers when I go back, how about it?" ”
"You invited us to pastries, how can we ask for your thank you?" The two guards said embarrassedly.
"If you can help me finish eating these pastries, you are helping me, how can you not thank me." Cuiliu said with a smile.
"Well, it's delicious." One of the guards said.
"Yes, our princess's craftsmanship is really good." The other guard nodded in appreciation.
"Then you eat more." Cuiliu looked at the two of them with a smile, and after about half a pillar of incense, the two fell down one after another.
"Hmph, this girl's unique family*, you dare to eat it." Cuiliu kicked two times and said proudly.
"I'll go in and look for it, and you'll be here to watch." Xian'er quickly walked over from behind the big tree on the side and patted Cuiliu's shoulder: "Although it is said that there are few people here, you still have to be vigilant." ”
"Got it, princess, go quickly, as soon as there is any movement, the slave will notify you immediately." Cuiliu dutifully stood outside, and Xian'er flashed and entered the study.
Shangguan Honglie's study was very simple, with only a desk, a row of bookshelves, and a soft collapse at the window.
Xian'er first looked for it on his desk, but found that it was just a thick stack of rice paper with only the word "Fei'er" written on it, densely packed, large or small, or cursive or lined, and there were no other words.
Xian'er hatefully slapped the rice paper in her hand on the desk, and this cheap woman again, I really don't know where she is, she can seduce so many men to be obsessed with her, and she also seduced Cousin Xiang, I don't know how the big cousin's plan is implemented, I hope to sacrifice her to the sword as soon as possible, so that she can no longer jump.
Thinking like this, Xian'er had already searched the desk, and there was nothing else except the pile of rice paper that made her angry.
With a turn of her eyes, Xian'er swept to the bookshelf on the side, on it, there were heavy books, she touched it, and she couldn't find anything unusual, just when she was about to give up, she suddenly knocked on one of the books was actually hollow, Xian'er was overjoyed, and pulled the book out with both hands, but found that it was a small dark grid, in the dark grid, there was a bag, stretched out and took out the bag, and when she opened it, it was the talisman she had been looking for for a long time. Close the secret compartment casually, return the study to its original state, and then quietly open the door and walk out, seeing that Cuiliu was still standing there alone, he couldn't help but put his mind at ease, made a gesture to Cuiliu, and left in a hurry.
Seeing this, Cuiliu hurriedly reached out and patted the cheeks of the two guards: "Brother guard, wake up, wake up, wake up......"
"Hey, why did you fall asleep?" The two guards woke up slowly, looked at the food box, and looked at Cuiliu with a wary face, "What's going on?" ”
"The two guards' eldest brothers also have a bad amount of alcohol, right?" Cuiliu still smiled and said: "I have a few pieces of dim sum here that are wine, but I didn't expect the two guard brothers to get drunk as soon as they ate them, but fortunately no one saw it." ”
One of the guards sniffed the remaining pieces of dim sum again, and sure enough, a few of them were wine-hearted, so he smiled embarrassedly, "Usually the prince is strict, we don't eat wine, just blamed the girl." ”
"I don't dare to send that thank you gift to the two eldest brothers, let's make a little snack for the two guard brothers another day, don't worry, I won't make a wine heart next time." Cuiliu stood up and stuffed the remaining snacks that were not wine hearts into the hands of the two guards, and she stuffed the snacks of the two wine hearts into her mouth, and then left with the food box.
Cuiliu hurriedly returned to the Dream Immortal Residence, but saw that Xian'er was holding a shining token and studying something.
"Princess, it's already there?" Cuiliu asked.
"Hmm." Xian'er put the token in her hand back on her waist: "How is the aftermath?" ”
"Slaves and maids, don't worry." Cuiliu's eyes crooked and he smiled.
"That's good, just wait for the eldest cousin to come tonight, hand over the talisman to him, and I will complete the task, and when the time comes, I can happily marry Cousin Xiang."
"Then the slave will congratulate the princess in advance." Cuiliu also said with a smile.
"Well, you go down first, and tell them that they don't have to bother, I want to rest for a while." Xian'er stretched, her mind was full of scenes of herself and Sakura Xiang getting married, and she tossed for a long time before she fell asleep.
"Princess, wake up, it's about to be the beginning of the hour." Cuiliu shook Xian'er awake and said softly.
"Huh? No way? How did I sleep for so long? It's been a whole day. Xian'er rolled over and sat up, muttering.
"The slave saw that the princess was sleeping deeply, so she never woke up the princess, thinking that she was worried too much about how to get the talisman these days." Cuiliu was holding a bowl of bistem porridge in her hand, "Now that the outside is more exposed, the princess should put something on the floor before going." ”
Xian'er got dressed, ate two mouthfuls of porridge in Cuiliu's hands, took the talisman with her, and went out quietly.
The weather was really cold, Xian'er tightened her clothes, avoided the patrolling guards along the way, and walked towards the pear orchard alone.
"Be careful for a moment, and if it's a trap, you can use the snow to escape without a trace." Ah Xiang instructed in a low voice.
"Isn't it, you actually told me to run away in the first place?" Inexplicably dissatisfied, he said: "I'm not greedy for life and afraid of death. ”
"It's for you to go back and report to Fei'er, besides, if you're not there, they will definitely not hurt me, if you are here, I still have to take care of your safety, but it will be a big deal." Ah Xiang explained. But it's okay if he doesn't explain, but this explanation is an inexplicable hornet's nest.
"Hey, what do you mean by that? You still dislike me as a burden to you? If it weren't for the county lord's fear that you would have a sudden attack of cold poison, I wouldn't have come with you, and you would still dare to dislike me? How do I? Isn't it just a little bit lower in martial arts? When it comes to light work, none of you are my opponents. Muttered inexplicably.
"I know that you are good at light skills, so once something happens, you will immediately use light skills to go back and report to Fei'er." Ah Xiang laughed and said, how can this person still be like a child?
"You ......" inexplicably just wanted to say something, but Ah Xiang covered his mouth in time, looked at the gate of the pear orchard with cold eyes, and said softly: "Shhh, don't make noise, it seems that someone is coming." ”
