Chapter 42: The Bug's Grievances

At the beginning of the summer, he came to put the refreshments on the table, and said that he had eaten them in the palace, and only picked out two crab roe and sea cucumber crystal bags, and ate them slowly and methodically with Longjing tea.

"Why don't you see Aunt Yue?" Liang Ci suddenly raised his head and asked.

"She went out of the city to see that she had left the king's palace." My heart was gloomy for a while, and I couldn't help but feel sour when I thought of the matter between the master and the king. At that time, the master and the king were stronger than Jin, but they had no choice but to encounter variables, how did the master survive such lonely years for more than 20 years?

"There are soldiers guarding the 'door' in front of the king's tomb, and the royal brother does not allow idle people to wait for half a step closer, which disturbs the king's purity. How did your master get in? Why don't you stay with her? ”

The master said that she wanted to be alone and quiet, and she would come back after talking to the king for a while. It happened that my stepmother was in the house, and she often went to worship the king, and the soldiers on guard knew it, so they made a special trip to send the master over, and it happened that on the way, it was good to say something considerate, so I stayed. I explained, picking up the needle and thread on the side and flipping around.

Liang Ci nodded and put his mind at ease.

"Why did you come back so late today?" I still couldn't help but ask, "Master has been waiting for your news." ”

Liang Ci's expression froze, and he suddenly became serious, and his thick eyebrows frowned slightly: "I'll go to the imperial brother and tell him what Aunt Xiyue said yesterday." ”

"Oh, it should be, this person is so bold that he secretly poisoned the Queen Mother, what else would he not dare? We must be vigilant and get to the bottom of it. ”

The corner of Liangci's 'lips' sneered: "It's a pity, the imperial brother doesn't believe it." ”

I was really a little incredulous when I heard this: "Everything is already clear, and it is obvious that it is Qingqing's hands and feet, there must be some shady tricks, why doesn't the emperor believe it?" Could it be that he was also 'bewitched' by Qingqing Gu? ”

My heart has been going up and down, the Su family has just gotten rid of the bad luck brought by Qingwan, and was tragically looted by the Bodhi Sect. If the emperor can't quickly cut the 'chaos' hemp and stop Qingqing's crazy 'yin' scheme, what serious consequences will it really cause in the future, and the entire Su family's head will not be enough to cut off.

Liang Ci shook his head: "The imperial brother is wise and wise, and his mind is unfathomable, so it is said that he should not be easily 'blinded' by a 'woman'. He may have been afraid of his mother for a while, or he had other considerations, and he had repeatedly warned me that unless I was sure of winning a blow, I should no longer discuss Su Qingqing's rights and wrongs. Today, he even rejected Aunt Xiyue's request to enter the palace to see the Queen Mother. However, let me just watch the Queen Mother being treated as a puppet by others, and I couldn't bear it, I argued two sentences in person, and it was a little late to come back. ”

I sighed helplessly, a little indignant at the emperor's partiality and belief.

Xiao Shan hurriedly ran in from outside, a little flustered, and his little face was red: "Miss, why are you still in the mood to embroider 'flowers' here, something happened." ”

"What's wrong? It's always like this. I asked without looking up.

"The prince of Crazy Stone was chased by a mysterious person on the street, and he was poisoned, and now his life is on the verge of death, and the whole capital has spread all over the city." Xiao Yan looked anxious: "You don't know yet? Let's check it out. ”

My subordinates kept flying, needles and threads flying up and down: "I don't know, no one told me." ”

Xiao Xiao was so anxious that he stomped his feet.

"This is a bad idea you gave to Mrs. Zhongyong, right?" Liang Ci 'pulled' out a handkerchief and wiped his fingertips clean: "On my way back to the house, I heard a lot of discussions, and I wondered, why no one reported such a big thing to me, and I made a special trip to the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion." ”

I stuck out my tongue: "Isn't my stepmother in a hurry to get the worms back, I'm just adding firewood." ”

"How can you be sure that the seedlings are in the capital now? She returned to Miao Jiang in a fit of anger, and maybe she couldn't say. Liang Ci leaned over half of his body and watched me fly the needle and line.

"The master said that the insect came to Chang'an to avenge her father. Now that the Bodhi Sect has not been extinguished, she will not return to Miaojiang easily, and she will not be able to let go of it for a while. ”

"Originally, Mrs. Zhongyong Marquis was witty, and now with you, who likes to watch the excitement, if the insect who is afraid that the world will not be 'chaotic' stays in the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion, the 'fine' life in the future of the crazy stone can be imagined."

Unconvinced, I retorted: "I'm also for the good of the rock." Let's just go to the Marquis Zhongyong's mansion, and also cooperate with my stepmother to perform a play, otherwise she won't be able to perform a one-man show alone. ”

Liang Ci grabbed me: "You are too worried, I just came from the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion, and I saw that there was a layer of 'medicine' scum on the ground outside the 'door' of the mansion, and the doctors in the house went in and out, and your stepmother herself was 'very' lively, so you don't go." ”

I couldn't help but laugh out loud, my stepmother was a little too exaggerated, the crazy stone had just been poisoned, and the 'medicine' scum was spread all over the ground, even if the crazy stone was a 'medicine' jar, I couldn't drink so much 'medicine'. Besides, although the insects focused on Gu, she could still distinguish the general 'medicine' materials. The momentum of the stepmother is also too big.

"Where's the Crazy Stone? Did he obediently cooperate with the acting, or was he forcibly grounded by his stepmother? I asked curiously, and I didn't know if the mad stone knew about it, I came up with this bad idea, would he thank me, or would he jump three feet high and rush over to me for revenge?

"I haven't seen anyone else today, so my carriage stayed at the 'gate' of the Marquis of Zhongyong's Mansion for a while, and I guessed that it was your trick and came back. Crazy Stone Bacheng was locked up by Mrs. Zhongyong Marquis, Crazy Stone is good at trapping crossbows, all of them are under the guidance of Mrs. Zhongyong Marquis, and she still has some skills to press the bottom of the box, which is left by the special 'door', in order to trap the Crazy Stone. ”

I was a little relieved, and I just couldn't get out for the time being. I just don't know if the insects will immediately rush to the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion when they hear the news.

Until it was late, there was still no news of insects, but the news of the dying life of the wild stone spread overwhelmingly.

I was 'serving' my 'medicine' materials and Gu worms in the 'medicine' garden, proudly boasting to the master, full of pride and pride. The master didn't expect that raising Gu worms in this illusory land would get twice the result with half the effort, and he was also amazed again and again.

I suddenly felt that something was not right, today's Gu worms were not as leisurely as usual, on the contrary, they were a little stupid 'desire', just like they reacted in the palace that day, but there were still some imperceptible restlessness, could it be that there were more powerful Gu worms nearby?

I stood up suddenly, a little 'excited': "It's an insect, it must be a Gu worm that senses the breath of grass and small 'flowers' on the insect!" Bugs are nearby. ”

After speaking, he didn't care about greeting the master, ran out of the house in three steps and two steps, looked left and right, where was the figure of the worm?

The reaction of the Gu worm in my hand became more and more obvious, reminding me that the worm must be close ahead.

"Bug, worm, where are you?" I anxiously shouted, "I know, you must be nearby, come out quickly." ”

There was still no response, and the streets were full of people. I walked along the street, looking left and right, and heard an excited shout from the corner of the street: "Buy and leave, it's open!" ”

It was a bunch of unscrupulous gamblers who were gathered there to have a good time, and I turned my head disdainfully, and the familiar red shirt flashed in the corner of my eyes.

Sure enough, it was a bug, she grabbed a handful of broken silver in her hand, and tried to squeeze forward on tiptoe, her little face flushed with excitement.

"Bugs!" I shouted.

The cacophony of people soon drowned out my shouts.

"The officers and soldiers are coming!" I shouted anxiously.

This voice worked, and the crowd around them immediately exploded, picked up the silver on the ground in a panic, and fled in all directions.

Unhurried, the bug turned his head to see me, froze for a moment, and then turned and ran.

"Worm, stop me!"

She stopped, turned her head curtly, looked at me and smiled, "Hehe": "Sister Qing." ”

"You still know I'm your sister." I took two steps over and took her hand, a little angry and funny. She was not relieved to go down the crazy stone, but she couldn't wipe her face and took the initiative to go to the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion, and ran around the Qiwang Mansion to wander around, and was discovered by me, why was she embarrassed to think about it.

"Come home with me." I tensed my face.

She struggled reluctantly, and I clamped her tightly, and my little hands were a little cold: "Why are you dressed like this again?" Now that it is autumn, the capital is not as good as Miaojiang, the weather is cold in the morning and evening, how can you wear so little? ”

Seeing that he couldn't break free, the insect obediently followed behind me, pouting, and red eyes: "I was originally a Miao 'girl', so naturally I was dressed up like this, what to do to wronged myself, and to meet other people's hobbies." ”

I paused for a moment, naturally knowing the meaning of the insect's anger, and for a moment I was a little distressed, and I loosened the hand holding her wrist: "Let's go back and freshen up first, and then we'll talk about it later." ”

The insect didn't speak, obediently followed me back to the house, and after meeting the master, he served tea and fruit snacks in a small way, and the insect just held it in his hand, turning it over and over, his face was lonely, and he was obviously a little absent-minded.

I asked her where she lived now, how she got back to the capital, and how she spent her time alone, and deliberately didn't say anything about the crazy stone.

She looked at me a few times and stopped, and I just chatted nonsense, and talked about the topic far away. She finally couldn't help it, lowered her head, interrupted me in a whisper, and asked me in a low voice, "Is Crazy Stone really hurt?" ”

"He dares to make you angry, what do you mention him to do, no matter what he is, he is left to fend for himself." I pouted.

"Actually, I also know that with you, he will be fine, but I can't help but worry, and secretly went to the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion to see it. Seeing the 'medicine' scum in a place outside the house, there was a 'mess' and everything, and those doctors were not in the stream, and I intuitively felt that he was deceiving people. But I couldn't help but worry in my heart, such a contradiction was useless. "The insect bit his lower 'lip' tightly, tears welled up in his eyelashes, and he looked particularly aggrieved.

I was silent for a moment, feeling a little unbearable to let the bugs worry like that. I grabbed the insect's hand and said seriously: "Worm, sister asks you a few questions, you have to answer me honestly, don't lie." ”
