199 Mermaid Pearl
Not long after Jiang Yi and Cheng Shifei finished eating, Yun Luo walked back with the little slave with a large pile of medicinal herbs in his hand.
The two of them were followed by a few eunuchs, who moved the stove, charcoal fire and other things needed for alchemy into the room, so that Jiang Yi could do alchemy.
However, Yun Luo's expression was a little depressed, and he looked worried, and after throwing down the medicinal materials, he hurriedly took the initiative to say without waiting for Jiang Yi and Cheng to ask:
"Oh no, two senior brothers, something big happened in the palace. I also just found out that the queen mother was captured by thieves last night. β
"Your queen motherβisn't that the queen mother?"
Cheng Shifei's eyes widened and exclaimed:
"Now even the Queen Mother has anyone who dares to hijack her? Who is so bold? β
"I haven't found out where those people came from."
The county lord of Yunluo shook his head, and then as if he remembered something, he suddenly turned his head to stare at right and wrong, and asked:
"Senior brother, when you entered the palace last night, did you find any suspicious people?"
Cheng Shifei frowned and thought about it for a while, then clapped his hands violently and shouted:
"Really. When I entered the palace last night, I saw a few men in black wrapped in a quilt and carrying a person away. Then I heard all the people shouting about the assassin, and it was probably the Queen Mother. β
Yun Luo couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly said:
"Let's go, you go with me to see the imperial brother and tell him the news."
After finishing speaking, he hurriedly pulled right and wrong and went to see the emperor.
Jiang Yi was sorting out the medicinal materials in the room, while thinking about his next steps.
After a long time, Yun Luo and the two returned.
After they told the emperor about the situation, they went to the queen mother's bedroom and watched a good show: Karasuma hung silk to diagnose the pulse, and Cao Zhengchun, who pretended to be the queen mother, experienced a fierce battle.
After Cheng Shifei sat down, patted his chest, and said:
"Senior brother, didn't you see the fight between Gonggong Cao and Squid Pill, I didn't expect the martial arts of these two to be so high, and the palace is really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon."
Yun Luo was worried about the disappearance of the Queen Mother, she kept pacing back and forth in the room, while pointing her chin with her finger, and said thoughtfully:
"This Karasuma went to great lengths to meet the queen mother, it's really suspicious, and it is likely to be related to the disappearance of the queen mother."
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that it made sense, and then she made up her mind and said:
"No, I have to continue to investigate, and I must find out the whereabouts of the queen mother."
As she spoke, she pulled the little slave and ran out like a gust of wind.
For her kind of thinking that one thing is one out, Jiang Yi can only shake his head helplessly when he sees it.
After he finished sorting out the medicinal materials, he did not rush to alchemy, but began to practice the Dafa of absorbing gong.
β¦β¦
In the blink of an eye, the day passed.
The next afternoon, Yun Luo walked out of the room dejectedly.
She was sued by Cao Zhengchun because she was running around in the palace to find out about the disappearance of the Queen Mother, and then the emperor ordered her not to continue to investigate the affairs of the Queen Mother, so as not to spoil the big thing.
Yun Luo couldn't swallow this evil breath, gritted his teeth and said fiercely:
"This Cao gelding dog dared to complain to the imperial brother, causing me to be scolded, and I was inseparable from him."
After cursing fiercely for a while, and after losing his temper, Yun Luo's eyes rolled and he hit the two senior brothers with his idea:
"Two senior brothers, after a day of my investigation, I found that Karasuma from Izumo Province is very suspicious, and it is likely to be related to the disappearance of the queen mother.
Aren't they going to meet the queen mother, we can take the opportunity to disguise ourselves as the queen mother, and take care of that hateful Cao gelding dog and that Karasuma.
Can you help the little sister? β
As soon as Cheng Shifei heard that she was going to deal with those two dangerous masters, he immediately retreated, and waved his hand again and again to shirk and say:
"I'm not going, that squid pill is proficient in poisoning, it's very powerful, I don't want to mess with him."
Yun Luo was clever and eccentric, and he had long seen the weakness of right and wrong, and when he didn't agree, he pretended to be sorry and said:
"Really? That's a pity, it seems that I can only give these 200,000 taels of silver tickets to others. β
As he spoke, he took out a stack of silver tickets and dangled it in front of Cheng Shifei's eyes.
Cheng Shifei looked at the silver ticket and suddenly his eyes lit up, and his heart was pounding, and he was about to open his mouth and agree.
Jiang Yi suddenly said:
"Let me do it, I happen to be proficient in the art of disguise. If you tell me more about the appearance of the Queen Mother, I should be able to imitate a seventy or eighty percent resemblance, which is enough to deal with that Karasuma and Princess Lixiu. β
He also wanted to take this opportunity to try the strength of this world's masters.
Yun Luo was overjoyed when he heard that Jiang Yi would be able to change his appearance, so he no longer cared about right and wrong, nodded his chin and laughed:
"Okay, okay, if the senior brother comes out, he will definitely be caught."
Seeing that Jiang Yi intervened halfway and ruined his "big business", Cheng couldn't help but say angrily:
"Senior brother, you don't have to compete with junior brother and me for this opportunity to make money, right?"
Jiang Yi didn't care about right and wrong, but looked at Yun Luo and said:
"However, if I make a move, you must promise me one condition."
Yun Luo thought that he was afraid of the lack of money, and said nonchalantly:
"What conditions do you just say, how much money do you need before you are willing to sell?"
Jiang Yi waved his hand:
"I don't want money, just the little mermaid pearl that your mother left you back then."
Yun Luo, who was originally very arrogant, suddenly had a stunned expression, and said reluctantly:
"No, this little mermaid pearl is a relic left to me by my mother back then, and it is very important to me. Why don't you change the conditions, senior brother? β
Jiang Yi shook his head:
"I only need the mermaid pearl, and I don't need anything else."
Saying that, Jiang Yi looked at Yun Luo, who was embarrassed, and increased his chips again:
"As long as you give me the mermaid Xiaomingzhu, I can help you save the Queen Mother again."
Hearing this, Yun Luo couldn't help but hurriedly asked:
"Do you know where the Queen Mother is?"
Jiang Yi bowed slightly and said, "I can probably guess where she is being held." β
Yun Luo didn't doubt whether Jiang Yi was lying to her, and nodded heavily: "Okay, I promise you." β
As he spoke, he took out the mermaid Xiaozhu hidden close to him and handed it to Jiang Yi.
Seeing that Jiang Yi would rather not have 200,000 taels of silver, but also to get this mermaid pearl, he thought it was a rare treasure.
His eyes widened, he leaned his head closer, and after carefully examining the mermaid Xiaomingzhu for a while, he pursed his lips and said:
"This little bead looks ordinary, and it's nothing unusual, why do you want it, senior brother?"
"I naturally have a reason."
Jiang Yi didn't explain much, just hid the mermaid Xiaomingzhu, and then began to ask Yun Luo about the appearance characteristics of the Queen Mother.
Yun Luo described the queen mother's height, shortness, fat and thinness, behavior habits, speaking voice, etc.
