Chapter 8: Waizhuang, confirmed

Zhao Qingcheng asked a few questions in a row, but he didn't hesitate to panic, and his brain was running rapidly. She said unhurriedly: "Question 1: I don't remember what happened to me in the palace back then; Question 2: I haven't been pretending to be stupid in recent years; Question 3: This time and that time. ”

As soon as she finished speaking, Zhao Qingcheng stepped forward with an arrow step and pinched Li Weixi's thin and silky chin with one hand, forcing her to look directly into his eyes, "This king hates others to play tricks the most!" Her answer was plausible, and he was very dissatisfied.

Although his jaw was pinched so painfully, he didn't hesitate to cry out for pain or resist, and he didn't even frown, looking at him fearlessly and stubbornly. She's telling the truth, so there's nothing to fear! Besides, if she shows weakness or wavering at this moment, Zhao Qing will definitely think that she is cheating, and he may not believe anything he says. What's more, this kind of pain is really nothing compared to the injuries you suffered when you were a stuntman.

Zhao Qingcheng saw neither panic nor timidity in her eyes, but only perseverance and honesty, and gradually let go of her hand, but her eyes still wandered on Li Weixi.

In order to prevent him from fighting again, Li did not hesitate to decide to keep a safe distance from Zhao Qingcheng, of course, this was just her self-consolation behavior.

After pulling away a little distance, Li did not hesitate to think about it and said: "Lord Wang, what I just answered is true, and what I am going to say next is the evidence of my answer just now." It's just something that ordinary people can accept and understand, but it's not the slightest bit false. ”

"You just have to say, as for whether it is true or false, believe it or not, this king lets his own decision." Zhao Qingcheng's answer was simple and straightforward.

Zhao Qingcheng has already said this, and Li Wei is also planning to break the boat, "Lord Wang, can you believe that the soul is out of body?" ”

Zhao Qingcheng didn't say anything, just looked at her and waited for her to continue.

Seeing this situation, Li did not hesitate to directly tell the fragments of his life after entering the palace with his father, as well as the matter of soul piercing from beginning to end. During this period, Li Weixi had been observing Zhao Qingcheng's expression, and the strange thing was that he was a little shocked when he heard her say that he was out of body, but his face was calm. It made Li Wei hesitate to scratch his head, thinking about whether he believed it or not.

When Li did not hesitate to explain everything, Zhao Qingcheng didn't say a word, pulled her to push open the door of the study, and said to the subordinates waiting outside: "Prepare the car, this king and the princess want to go out for a while." Ye Gongzi came and asked him to wait. ”

He was dragged along the way, attracting the side eyes of many subordinates, and he was not happy. She tugged at Zhao Qingcheng hard, "Lord Wang, what does this mean?" Let it go first, I'll go myself. ”

Seeing that Zhao Qingcheng didn't pay attention to it, he still dragged her all the way, and said helplessly: "What I said is the truth, but I can't prove it." ”

"This king can!" Zhao Qingcheng turned his head, the smile on his face with a fatal charm.

What the! This time, the surprised expression on Li Weixi's face was revealed.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

By the time she came to her senses, she was already sitting in the carriage and slowly heading out of the city. Zhao Qingcheng's carriage looked very ordinary from the outside, and even a little too plain. But the interior is quite elegant, although it is not luxurious, but it is very particular about the details, the cushions are soft and comfortable, the low table is wrapped in soft leather, and other small details abound.

The two were silent along the way, but Zhao Qingcheng's face was solemn and thoughtful. It didn't take long for the carriage to stop, and Li did not hesitate to get out of the car behind Zhao Qingcheng, and what caught his eye was a huge Zhuangzi.

An old woman outside Zhuangzi seemed to have been waiting for a long time, and when she saw that the carriage had stopped, she quickly stepped forward and said, "See the prince, the princess." ”

Zhao Qingcheng changed his previous arrogance, was very gentle to the old woman, and took the old woman's hand, "Nursing mother, is it okay if you haven't seen your body for many days?" ”

"Everything is fine with the old slave, but the prince has lost a lot of weight." The old woman's wrinkled face was full of smiles, and she touched Zhao Qingcheng's cheek distressedly.

Zhao Qingcheng walked leisurely in the Zhuangzi, gossiping with the nurse from time to time. Li didn't hesitate to care, and followed behind them unhurriedly.

To be honest, this Zhuangzi is not small, and it is half a day smaller in a circle. But Li did not regret that he liked this quiet Zhuangzi very much, and the furnishings in the hall were also extremely elegant, which showed that the owner of this house was a quiet and elegant person. I asserted in my heart that this house must not be Zhao Qingcheng's.

Seeing that Li Wei, who had been neglected for a long time, the nurse did not hesitate to be angry at all, and she was very appreciative in her heart, her face was not obvious, and she gave a proper salute, and said: "Princess, forgive your sins!" The old slave missed the prince very much after not seeing him for many days, and nagged a few more words, snubbing the princess, and asking the princess not to blame. ”

With a gentle smile on his face, Li Wei helped the nurse up: "The nurse is serious!" The prince values the nurse so much, I should be the same as the prince. The experience of that world taught her that she must recognize the situation in everything and have a certain scale for people and things. Zhao Qingcheng's attitude towards the nursing mother is obvious, why should she be arrogant, not to mention that she is still a princess with moisture.

The nurse nodded with a smile, "Lord, the old slave has asked the subordinates in Zhuangzi to prepare lunch, and invite the prince and princess to eat first." ”

Li Weixi and Zhao Qingcheng followed the nurse all the way to the canteen, and the design of the canteen was very strange, and there were some styles of that world. Before he could take a closer look, he saw that dishes were served on the long table of the Quartet, as well as fresh fruits.

Unexpectedly, the food in the Zhuangzi outside the city was no worse than that of the palace, and even slightly better. Li didn't hesitate to peck only one or two chopsticks at each dish, and it was rare to have a dish she liked, so she inevitably ate a few more bites.

The nurse was very happy when she saw it, "If the princess likes it, she will come often in the future." These vegetables and fruits are all planted by the old slave in his spare time, and even the chickens and ducks are raised by the old slave himself. ”

"No wonder it's so delicious, it's different when you grow it yourself." Li didn't hesitate to laugh.

Hearing Li Weixi's such pleasing words, the nurse was even happier in her heart. However, Zhao Qingcheng glanced at her meaningfully, and immediately withdrew his gaze.

Li didn't regret that he didn't see it, and when he turned around, he glanced at Zhao Qingcheng from time to time when he saw the maid with peach blossoms in her eyes. To be good-looking is to recruit, and the same is true for men! Regarding the behavior of this good-looking little girl secretly sending Qiu Bo, Li did not hesitate to smile faintly. Even Zhao Qingcheng, the client, has long been accustomed to the posture of only seeing it, so why should she care, not to mention that she is just the princess of his agreement.

But the nurse's sharp eyes looked at one or two, "You all go down!" Lord and Princess, please use it slowly. If there is a need to call out, the old slave will also retire first. ”

"Presumably the prince didn't bring me here to visit the nurse and appreciate this Zhuangzi! Can the master of this village prove my word? After the nurse left, she did not hesitate to speak first.

Zhao Qingcheng was stunned for a moment, but he didn't deny it, but said: "Now this king is the master of this Zhuangzi." After finishing speaking, he got up and strode out of the door, leaving a sentence behind him: "Since you are so fond of this Zhuangzi, you can go shopping everywhere, and if you are tired, let the maid in the village take you to rest." As he spoke, he disappeared.

Although Li Wei regretted that it was inexplicable, he felt that Zhao Qingcheng must have had a reason, and he didn't take this matter to heart. She really liked this Zhuangzi, so she got up and walked to the garden.

In fact, Zhao Qingcheng's sudden abandonment of Li Weixi was indeed an emergency. He saw a black shadow suddenly flash outside the door, and knew that it was his secret guard who had an urgent matter to report to him, and in view of the inconvenience of Li Wei being present, Gu Cai signaled Zhao Qingcheng in this way.

Indeed, this method has obvious effects, and Li did not hesitate to notice it.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

In a hidden woods outside the village, a woman in black was half-kneeling on the ground, reporting something to her master.

"The king knows."

"Lord Wang, do you want your subordinates to take action?"

Zhao Qingcheng didn't think about it, "No." You will do your part, and the king will arrange the rest. ”

"Yes." The woman in black didn't dare to have any doubts.

"Stand down!"

The woman in black just wanted to leave but was called back by Zhao Qingcheng, "Wait." ”

"What else does the prince command?"

"You go back and keep an eye on it, and see if this person has anything to do."

"Broken bowel, understood."

"Stand down!"

The broken intestines also came and went like the wind, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Zhao Qingcheng seemed to think of something again, "Unintentionally." ”

"The subordinates are here." Wuxin suddenly flashed in front of Zhao Qingcheng.

"Go and verify one thing for the king."

"Where is the princess ······?"

Wuxin didn't immediately respond to his order for the first time, which made Zhao Qing feel a little unhappy. "The king has his own arrangements."

"Yes." I don't dare to have any more objections.

Zhao Qingcheng signaled that he had no intention of attaching his ears to the past, and unintentionally got up and came to his side. After a whisper, he unintentionally dodged and retreated.

After leaving unintentionally, Zhao Qingcheng stood alone for a long time, sorting out his thoughts.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Zhao Qingcheng returned to Zhuangzi again, and it was almost sunset. He did not hesitate to find it in the courtyard, and did not give any explanation for the hours that he had disappeared. Of course, I don't hesitate to ask, just when nothing happens.

"Keep up with the king." Zhao Qingcheng dropped this sentence beside Li Weixi and walked away.

Li didn't hesitate to say anything and followed behind him. Zhao Qingcheng stopped in the more remote courtyard of Zhuangzi, took out the key and opened the courtyard door.

The courtyard is very deserted, but it is tidy, as if someone often comes to clean it. Zhao Qingcheng took Li Wei to enter the wing room on the east side of the courtyard, and the wing room was not big enough to see through at a glance.

What shocked Li was that the furniture and furnishings in this room actually had an obvious sense of otherworldliness, if it weren't for Zhao Qingcheng beside her to make her sure that she was back, she would really think that she was still in that world.

"Use it to prove what you have spoken to this king." Zhao Qingcheng raised his finger and pointed at the behemoth covered by black velvet cloth under the windowsill.

Li did not hesitate to bask in the shock that this room had brought her, and slowly walked towards the behemoth, reaching out to remove the black velvet cloth.

At that moment, Li Weixi was completely stunned! If it weren't for the cushioning that the furniture had given her just now, she would have been stunned by now. In front of her eyes was a piano! She was so shocked that she didn't know what to say for a moment, just stood still.

Zhao Qingcheng took her reaction into his eyes, and at this time he was basically convinced of the truth of what Li did not regret.

Li Wei finally came to his senses, "Where did the prince get the piano?" Who is the owner of the piano? Can I see it. ”

"It's called a 'piano'?" He didn't answer the question.

It's not another world, but it's here. Well, the origin of this piano with a slightly rough workmanship is obvious. Li Weixi is really eager to meet the owner of this piano now, and he really doesn't have time to talk to him.

"Since the prince doesn't want to answer, then I'll go and ask the people in Zhuangzi." The piano in this Zhuangzi must know who it is, and he did not hesitate to walk quickly to the door.

Zhao Qingcheng used his long legs to block Li Wei's way with a light step, "If you can use that thing to play a song for this king," he stretched out his hand and pointed to the piano, "This king will not only tell you everything you want, but also believe what you said this morning." ”

"The prince actually knows that this is a musical instrument!" Li Weixi was quite surprised, it seems that this prince knows far more than she imagined.

Li didn't hesitate to think about it for a moment, turned around and walked slowly to the piano. She gently stroked the keys, "I didn't deliberately learn it. ”

"You won't?" Zhao Qingcheng's tone revealed disappointment, he had heard his father say that the melody played by this thing was incomparable to any musical instrument. Sometimes high-pitched, sometimes melodious, sometimes clear, sometimes soft, sometimes deep, it is unique in the world, but no one in this world can play it anymore.

Li did not hesitate to sit on the piano bench and looked intently at the black and white keys in front of him. "I only said that I didn't deliberately learn it, but I never said that I wouldn't." Anyway, her otherworldly mother was a music teacher, and a song "To Alice" was played at her fingertips.
