Chapter 177: Sacrifice

"Come, come, don't knock, I said that the master is not at home, you will ......"

The door opened, and an old figure appeared in front of Li Xing, chattering and complaining, it seemed that this time was not lightly disturbed by the visitor. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Seeing the door open, Li Xing also lifted the hat of the windbreaker on his head and looked at the old man in front of him with a smile on his face.

"Laifu, don't come and greet the master when he comes back." Li Xing asked with a pretended seriousness.

"Old, sir, you're back." As soon as he said that, he knelt on the ground and hugged Li Xing's thighs and wailed loudly: "Master, you are finally back, I, I thought you would not come back." ”

"Okay, okay, aren't you coming back, hurry up and make me something to eat." Li Xing pulled out his thighs vigorously and said with a wry smile.

This action caused the laughter of Yin Ruiji and Red Butterfly on the side, the whole person was giggling, and Laifu also looked up to see the two of them, and quickly stood up and saluted Yin Ruiji.

"The old slave is blessed, I have seen the lady."

Yin Ruiji also returned the courtesy: "No need to be polite, let's go in!" ”

With Li Xing's return home, the entire manor was brightly lit, although it was dark, but the people in the manor were full of energy and enthusiasm.

After half a year of singing, now the entire Tang Dynasty has spread, and Li Xing's name has spread all over the country with these six poems, and even those small countries that admire Han culture are constantly singing.

Seeing the return of his star-like master, who doesn't want to take a few more looks, dangle in front of the master twice, and see if he can get the master's appreciation, especially those maids, who can hang the oil bottle with the red butterfly's mouth pouting on the side, and put the approach of those maids like a thief, Li Xing does everything himself, and he doesn't want to borrow other people's hands.

Three days passed in a flash, Li Xing also learned everything that happened in the Shendu in these few days, a month ago Fuyu invaded the border, Wuhou sent 100,000 sailors to suppress the enemy, three days ago in the voyage encountered the dragon king, the entire 100,000 sailors were wiped out without a lifetime, at this time, the people of the Tang Dynasty spared their lives and paid a lot of money to sacrifice to the dragon king, and they also selected the Oiran Green Ji of the swallow tower to sacrifice the dragon king.

"Queen."

Wu Zetian on the corner tower of the palace with his hands behind his back, looking at the scene of this god capital downstairs majestically, a large number of guards behind him stood aside, and Chi Zhenjin, the secretary of Dali Temple, stood behind him in a black official robe with his hands clenched into fists, and said with a respectful face: "The minister has found out that the people are so crazy to worship the Dragon King because they are selling incense and candles for the sake of advocating worship for a while. ”

Empress Wu turned to Yu Chi Zhenjin and asked, "Who is behind the people who are behind the crazy sacrifice of the Dragon King?" ”

Although the voice seems soft, there is a majestic domineering air in it.

Hearing Empress Wu's question, Yu Chi Zhenjin hurriedly replied: "Yes, Taichang Temple, which is in charge of rituals, selects official prostitutes to go to Longwang Temple to take precepts for three years according to the turtle divination. ”

"Official prostitute?"

"This woman is the official prostitute of Yanzilou who was elected as the Oiran of Luoyang, Green Ji, it is said that after Lu Ji was elected, she offended a powerful person in the court because she refused to meet guests, and in order to force her to dedicate herself to the law, he was elected to the temple."

"Ridiculous," the Empress Wu shouted angrily, "An official prostitute will make trouble all over the city, and besides, I remember that the Oiran of the Swallow Tower is not Yin Ruiji?" ”

"This Green Ji is an official prostitute re-selected after Yin Rui Ji disappeared."

"After it's gone." After hearing this disappearance, Empress Wu's eyes narrowed slightly, and Ling Ran asked with murderous aura inside, "Did he find it?" ”

Empress Wu's words were full of coldness, which made Yu Chi Zhenjin on the side tremble all over, his head lowered even lower, and he said in a low voice: "No." ”

"Hmph, rubbish."

"Yes, Weichen should be damned."

"Okay, let's investigate this matter slowly, let's talk about the destruction of the warship first," after speaking, he walked towards the side of the damaged warship and asked, "What clues have been found out about the destruction of the warship?" ”

Yu Chi Zhenjin secretly breathed a sigh of relief and pointed to the warship and said: "These two warships were lightly damaged and were towed back, and the rest could not be saved ......"

"Enough, don't say what I know." Empress Wu glanced at Yu Chi Zhenjin angrily and said.

"Minister, the minister is still investigating."

Empress Wu's face was a little disdainful, and she turned around and continued to look at the damaged warship; "What is there to check, if there is really a dragon king, I will not have to fight in the Tang Dynasty in the future." The tone suddenly changed and said: "Yu Chi Zhenjin, your Dali Temple has always solved cases quickly, this case must be urgent, and you must not let people with ill intentions take the opportunity to make trouble, you say, how many days will it take?" ”

Seeing that Yu Chi Zhenjin was silent, Empress Wu continued: "At the moment of national disaster, I will help you decide!" Ten days, if you can't find out the truth within ten days, you will come to see you. ”

After finishing speaking, he turned around and left, and Yu Chi Zhenjin, who was behind him, knelt down on one knee and said heavily: "Obey." ”

Only the muttering words of the Empress Wu were left: "Find a fireworks woman to make a fuss, these old ministers, I don't know what to pay attention to." ”

……

"Rui Ji, let's go, let's go shopping." Li Xing said to Yin Ruiji, who was reading a book on the side.

"Master, master, I want to go too."

"Okay, together." Li Xing laughed and said.

Pulling the two of them laughing and walking towards the door, as for Yin Ruiji, he even found a veil to cover his cheeks, in his words, he was watched by various people in the first half of his life, and the second half of his life was born for her husband, and this face was only for her husband.

Of course, it was also brought in order not to cause trouble to Li Xing.

The crowd on the street is crowded, shoulder to shoulder, and today it is because of the selection of the Oiran to sacrifice to the dragon king, and the people are blocking the street.

Looking at the dancing green Ji on the float, Yin Ruiji was also pale and trembling.

Li Xing, who noticed the abnormality, reached out and put his arm around Yin Ruiji's shoulders and asked with concern, "What's wrong?" Reiki. ”

"Husband, you said that if the concubine didn't meet you, then is the person above today a concubine?" Yin Rui Ji pointed at Midori Ji with a pale face and said.

Yin Ruiji's words made Li Xing look stunned, indeed, Li Xing, who understands the plot, knows that without Li Xing's intervention, the person who sacrificed the Dragon King is indeed the Yin Ruiji in front of him, although in the end, there are people who eventually become dependents, but it is also after a cold bone.

"Anyway, now that your fate has changed, with a husband, we will be a fairy couple for a long time." Li Xing comforted gently.

"Well, fairy couple." just said in a quieter voice: "Thank you, husband, I am blessed to meet you." ”

Then run and jump happily with the red butterflies.

After everyone played for a while, after seeing that the Oiran had been sent to the Dragon King Temple, Li Xing showed a smile on the corner of his mouth, and after sending the second daughter back to the manor, he turned around and walked towards the Dragon King Temple.
