I don't know what Princess Taiping said to Pei Shizhen, You'an only saw her whispering a few words in Pei Shizhen's ear from a distance, Pei Shizhen took off the cloak of the outer cover without saying a word, and walked straight towards the palace gate.

It wasn't until she got into the carriage of the Pei family that Princess Taiping took out something from herself and handed it to Pei Shizhen.

It was a trinket sold by a Hu merchant, and although it was rare, it was not valuable. On the round ball made of clay, there are two arc-shaped grooves that cross each other, and in each groove, there is a small ball stuck in it, and when it is gently dialed, the small balls will be implicated in each other and rotate, but they can just pass by each time and will not be stuck together.

When Princess Taiping saw it for the first time in the hands of the young lady of the family who came to visit, she wanted to come over, and she specially reserved it for use on occasions like today. I have to say that although Princess Taiping fiddled with Pei Shizhen like a plaything, the effect was very good, Pei Shizhen took the thing in his hand, lowered his head and didn't say a word, and he didn't even raise his eyes along the way.

When he deduced the trajectory of the stars, he had always had some doubts, the routes of those stars were obviously criss-crossed, why the stars would never collide together, this small ball could just answer his doubts.

The carriage traveled along Suzaku Street, and the coachman skillfully turned a corner, trying to make a shortcut. Although Princess Taiping usually has the opportunity to leave the palace, it is usually at the moment of fire and silver flowers and the celebration of all the people during the Shangyuan Festival, and the current quiet street market scene makes her feel very fresh. Lifting the curtain and looking out.

You'an stared at Pei Shizhen, who was immersed in his own world, and suddenly heard Princess Taiping softly "Huh": "That's not ...... Shangguan? "Shangguan Wan'er's surname is too special, and her name is a little tongue-twisting, and people around the queen are used to calling her Shangguan directly. You'an followed Princess Taiping's gaze and looked out, and sure enough, she saw Shangguan Wan'er turning into a small alley.

The alley was too narrow for carriages to pass, so Princess Taiping took You'an's hand and jumped out of the car with her: "Let's go and see what Shangguan is going to do." ”

You'an frowned slightly, this kind of remote alley is mixed with fish and dragons, and it is not good to say who will meet, if you get into danger because of a momentary curiosity, it is really worth the loss. She grabbed Princess Taiping's sleeve to dissuade her: "Didn't you say that you want to go to see Ming Chongyan, if you go late, I'm afraid you will miss the time for him to give blessings today." ”

Princess Taiping waved her hand nonchalantly: "That magic stick is here every day, it's the same to see it another day, Shangguan is out of the palace, but it's an abnormal thing, let's go see this first." ”

You'an really didn't know whether to praise Princess Taiping's careful thinking ability, or to admire her fearless courage at the moment, seeing that Princess Taiping had already stepped in, she had to follow immediately. If Princess Taiping had anything, she wouldn't have to go back to the palace at all, and if she went back, she would die, and if she didn't do it, she wouldn't have to die.

The alley was filled with all kinds of foul smells, and at the mouth of the alley were a few houses, and beyond, there was a private gambling house, and the noisy laughter and scolding were mixed with the sound of the dice shaking.

Shangguan Wan'er walked into a gambling house and sat down in front of a small desk by the window, and in the shadow opposite her, there was also a person sitting, who should be a tall man, but his face was hidden in the darkness and could not be seen clearly. The two made a "please" gesture to each other while shaking the dice cups. It was too far away to see who was losing and who was winning, but she saw Shangguan Wan'er seem to smile and push some silver in front of her.

Princess Taiping leaned into You'an's ear and said: "I didn't expect Shangguan to play a fighting scene, and he looks so romantic, I will also learn fighting when I go back." ”

You'an raised his hand and pressed it on her mouth, signaling her not to make a sound, the situation in front of her looked very weird, first she could go back alive, and then she would say anything about learning to fight.

As soon as she said this, Shangguan Wan'er and the man opposite had already shaken another game, and it seemed that Shangguan Wan'er had lost, and pushed some silver over.

You'an just wanted to ask Princess Taiping to leave, but Shangguan Wan'er suddenly turned her eyes to the window and said something. When You'an saw the movement on her lips, she knew it wasn't good. Usually speaking, even if you can't hear the sound, you can guess a rough idea from the lip movements, but this sentence doesn't tell what she's talking about at all, because it's a nonsense that You'an doesn't understand.

As soon as she pulled Princess Taiping, she only had time to say "go quickly", and a few people with big shoulders and round waists came out of the gambling house and walked straight towards Princess Taiping and You'an.

You'an saw that the faces and characteristics of those people were very different from those of the locals, so she immediately pushed Princess Taiping and urged in a low voice: "Run back to the carriage quickly, don't look back." She turned back to herself, and without looking, threw the things on the side of the road indiscriminately.

Compared with those few people, You'an's little action was as insignificant as tickling. One of them strode forward, put the sack in his hand directly on You'an's head, and threw it on his shoulder when he resisted her. Through the gap in the sack, she vaguely saw Shangguan Wan'er take a wide robe to cover her head and face, and left through the small door on the other side.

You'an was carried straight into the house, thrown straight to the ground, a few men above her head said things she didn't understand, listened for a long time, didn't hear the sound of other heavy objects landing, You'an breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, as long as Princess Taiping was not caught, she would always have a way to escape. As soon as she thought about it, she felt a sore sensation on the back of her neck, and then she lost consciousness.

When she woke up again, she was awakened from hunger, and she didn't know how long she had been asleep. Yoan turned her stiff neck with difficulty, trying to see what was going on around her.

There were still tables here, but the space was much wider than before, the room was windowless on all sides, and the door was tightly closed, so that it was impossible to see whether it was day or night. The room was not well ventilated, and the smell of sweat was disgusting. You'an found that her hands and feet were tied, and there were several young girls sitting beside her, all of whom were also firmly tied, and their faces were full of horror.

In the middle of the room, someone suddenly banged on the tabletop, forcing the entire room to be quiet. The man who looked like a man stepped onto the wide table, and behind him, someone grabbed one from the middle of the group of girls and pushed it up. The girl was so frightened that she forgot to cry, and she could only keep sobbing. The person who jumped on the table first spoke in the Tang Dynasty Chinese, which was not very proficient: "Silla maidservant, take it back, you can do whatever you want." ”
