Chapter 44: Concubine De
It is said that magpies chirp, and happy events come to the door.
Ma Xisheng heard the magpie cry early in the morning, and thought that there must be good news for the things in his heart.
entered the chamber early for a court meeting, but one morning, no one mentioned the whereabouts of King Qi, so after the court meeting was dispersed, he quickly asked Ma Xisheng to send General Lu, who was in charge of the matter, to report.
But this General Lu is obviously a military general, but when he speaks, he goes around in a circle, listening to him like a head and two big, and finally interrupts his chatter impatiently by knocking on the table.
"Can you stop talking nonsense with Lone, Lone just asks you where the others are?"
"King Qi, King Qi is still missing."
When Ma Xi heard this, he grabbed the inkstone in his hand and threw it at General Lu: "Useless thing!" What do you want? I've been talking to Lonely for a long time, but you found someone! ”
"The king's wrath!" Zhao Jichang, who was behind Ma Xisheng, immediately stepped forward to appease: "It's not easy to find a person in this vast area, I believe that there will be gains in more time." ”
Ma Xi yelled at Zhao Jichang angrily: "Believe, believe it!" The key is how long to wait, how long to wait? ”
Zhao Jichang and General Lu, who was splashed with ink, glanced at each other, and no one squeaked.
"Get out of here!" Ma Xi's voice was thunderous: "Get out!" ”
General Lu immediately rolled over, Zhao Jichang took a few steps back, but when he reached the door, he didn't retreat any further, but stood up straight and looked at Ma Xisheng.
Ma Xisheng walked back and forth on the high platform in the hall a few times in annoyance, and shouted again: "Jichang! Zhao Jichang! ”
Zhao Jichang immediately leaned over again, with a flattering smile on his face: "The king is not in a good mood, but he wants to go to the imperial garden for a walk?" ”
Ma Xisheng nodded like pounding garlic: "Yes, yes!" Imperial! ”
Zhao Jichang immediately helped Ma Xisheng to get off the high platform and out of the conference hall, and after they left, the little eunuch standing at the door blinked his eyes and went to the palace of Concubine De in the harem.
"The little one has seen Concubine De Niangniang."
The little eunuch knelt on the ground, peeking forward, and the graceful and luxurious Concubine De was lying lazily on the fox skin, and the purple gas of the incense seal lit on the side was swirling, illusory to her face.
Concubine De closed her eyes and waved her hand, and Danqing, the personal maid behind her, stepped forward: "Father-in-law, get up and speak!" ”
The little eunuch got up: "Concubine De Niangniang, there has been no news of His Royal Highness the King everywhere in the past few days. ”
Concubine De lay motionless, Danqing glanced at Concubine De and asked, "That'...... Pengfu, as well as the left and right phases, what is the situation? ”
"Master Peng and the left minister both said that they could not recuperate from illness, and as for the right minister, many officials came to visit the house every day."
"Reward." Concubine De finally opened her mouth, and Danqing immediately took out a string of iron coins and put it in the little eunuch's hand: "Gonggong Lao is careful everywhere, and he will send it as soon as there is news." ”
"Well said, well said." The little eunuch left with the money, and Danqing turned around and returned to Concubine De, squatted down and beat her legs.
Concubine De only opened her eyes at this time, and said lazily: "How many days have you had?" ”
"It's been forty days."
Concubine De blinked: "Find someone to go to Peng's Mansion to keep an eye on, don't really be a cat and take a nap!" ”
"Yes."
Danqing retreated, and Concubine De turned over and went back in a daze.
……
Hua Rou had nothing to do, and she was bent on repaying Tang Xiao and Tang Feiyan, who presided over justice, so she could only go to the stove room and make two copies of Leng Tao to thank her.
She inquired with the cook in the stove room and learned that Tang Feiyan lived in Fengzhi's room and Tang Xiao lived in the hidden weapon room, so she went to Fengzhi's room first, but ......
"I'm sorry, Senior Sister Feiyan is practicing the exercises and can't see you, if you tell me anything, I'll pass it on to her."
When Hua Rou heard this, she could only open the food box and take out the sealed pastry and handed it over: "This is a cold tao made by me myself, and I want to give it to Senior Sister Feiyan to thank her for her help last time." ”
"Okay, I'll transfer it to Senior Sister Feiyan."
"Thank you."
After thanking Hua Rou, she carried the food box to the hidden weapon room, and the disciple who received the pastry turned back with the pastry box.
There is an independent courtyard in the backyard of Fengzhifang, which is Tang Feiyan's boudoir, and at this moment, Tang Feiyan is not practicing exercises, but talking and laughing in the courtyard with two familiar female companions.
The pastry box was delivered to Tang Feiyan: "Senior Sister Feiyan, this is a cold tao made by Hua Rou herself, saying that it is a thank you for your help, Senior Sister......"
"Thrown."
Tang Feiyan waved his hand without even looking at it, and the disciple hurriedly retreated with the pastry, but was grabbed by the female companion on the side: "I want to thank you for a box of cold tao?" It's really handy! ”
"That's it! I want to slap our Senior Sister Feiyan, and I don't want to see Senior Sister Feiyan to look down on her! ”
The other female companion grabbed the pastry and threw it back to the disciple, and after watching the disciple leave, she said to Tang Feiyan with a smile: "Eh, but that one named Mu Junwu is very handsome, I just don't know ......."
"Handsome?" Tang Feiyan slapped the table unhappily: "No one in this Tang Sect is as handsome as Brother Xiao!" ”
The two female companions glanced at each other and immediately nodded yes.
"Of course, Tang Xiaozhijun is incomparable!"
"Yes, yes, he is still the future master of the door, how can he be compared to others!"
Tang Feiyan's face immediately rippled with a touch of spring: "You guys...... It's good to know. ”
……
Hua Rou Fengzhi couldn't see Tang Feiyan, so she naturally went to the dark weapon room, but Tang Xiao was not there, she asked others to help deliver it, the front foot left, and the back foot Tang Xiao came back.
"Who put this in my house?" Tang Xiao took the pastry box out of the house and asked loudly, and a disciple in the courtyard immediately raised his hand: "It's me!" A junior sister named Hua Rou sent it and said that she was grateful for your help. ”
Tang Xiao was stunned when he heard this, and then remembered the girl with a frightened face, and couldn't help but raise a smile on his face, opened the pastry box at the moment, picked up one of the pieces and took a bite, and greeted the other disciples: "It's delicious, come on, come on, everyone try it!" ”
The disciples were not polite and rushed up to share the food.
Tang Xiao's mouth twisted: "It's really delicious!" Hey, leave me another piece! ”
As everyone shared the food, Hua Rou was walking back with an empty food box, and she looked at the lush bamboo forests along the way, puzzled.
Odd? Why is it that only the Hidden Weapon Room and the Soul Reaver Room are alone on this mountain?
She didn't understand, it was because there were obviously seven rooms in the Tang Gate, only these two rooms were on this hill, and the flat land where the five-room courtyard was located was not only separated from a few martial arts arenas, but also separated by this dense bamboo forest, which made her walk for a long time.
"Obviously, there are still a lot of empty yards on the side where everyone lives, and it's not that there is no land to live in, so why divide ......?"
"Bang!"
A loud bang suddenly exploded not far away, and the huge vibration on the surface made Hua Rou unsteady on her feet and almost fell to the ground.
Hua Rou opened her mouth, pressed her buzzing ears with her hand, and looked in the direction of the loud noise, and saw a cloud of black smoke rising from the bamboo forest......
