Chapter 067: Gambling
"Sister!"
The saintess was nervously waiting for the news of the Qianhuan Hall in the inn, and before Ah Gu's people arrived, the voice arrived first.
"Be quiet!
The saint tried to pull him in, but she still used her usual strength, but she didn't.
"Why are you suddenly using force?" the holy woman pulled again, and Ah Gu walked in the door by herself and closed the door.
Ah Gu was not as giggling as before today, and only said: "I'm not a child, how can I be easily pulled by a woman." ”
"What's wrong with you? The saint asked.
"I don't have time to go into details, sister," Ah Gu took out a slender cloth bag from his arms, "I saw the people from Qianhuan Hall coming this way." ”
Inside the bag was a very thin dagger, half as narrow as a normal dagger. Pulled out of the dagger, the blade was as thin as a needle. Such a short soldier is naturally much lighter than an ordinary dagger.
"Hanging needle," said Ah Gu, "this dagger is called a hanging needle, so take it with you." ”
Not to mention where he got such a special weapon......
"But...... How can I bring weapons with me when I enter the Prince's Palace?"
Although the people in the rivers and lakes have their own unique skills, but when they enter the palace, it is another matter.
The palace occupies an extremely large area, and if you don't memorize the map in advance, it will be difficult to perform even the best light work.
The last time the saint entered the palace, she felt this way. Moreover, before entering the royal palace and the prince's mansion, the guards are indispensable to search, and weapons must not be carried.
Seeing that she was worried, Ah Gu said, "Sister, I know you'll be fine, but I'm worried about you." King Nanliang is by no means a good kind, that, this hanging needle dagger, you ...... Hide between your legs. ”
Well......
"Well, it's a good ......" The holy woman's face turned slightly red, but it was gone in a flash.
The more Agu was defenseless against her, the more guilty she felt in her heart.
The dagger he sent at this time just gave her a bold idea in her heart......
"Well, go quickly," urged the holy woman, "since the people of King Nanliang know that I live here, if you go out and happen to run into them, things will be difficult." ”
"I know, I know," Ah Gu finally smiled, "Sister is worried about me? Ah Gu can't die." ”
"I know you're cheap!" the saint also smiled, "You still have to save your life to eat royal candied fruit, don't you?" Listen, when you enter the Qianhuan Palace, I will meet the opportunity to act, and you wait for my news. ”
"Sister, don't worry, the people of the Canglang Alliance are already in the palace, but there is no way to get close to King Nanliang. After my sister enters the Qianhuan Palace, they will try their best to contact you. ”
"What about you?" asked the saint again.
"I'm not as good as them, and I was just a matchmaker, but I won't go, so I'll pick up my sister at the inn. ”
The saint said in her heart: Whoever needs you to answer, I can't wait for you to go.
Ah Gu said: "Sister, I have to go." When you come back, remember to wrap the candied fruit for me to eat!"
“...... You, be careful yourself. ”
Ah Gu propped up his hand and rolled down from the window.
I only heard the sound of landing on the ground, and the fast steps became farther and farther.
The saint packed up her things, and did as Ah Gu said, and tied the hanging needle dagger to the inner thigh. Although the dress was thin, the dagger was so light that it was hidden in the garment, and it was not visible at all.
King Nanliang's personal guards must have known the purpose of King Nanliang calling her into the Qianhuan Palace, and they were afraid of colliding with their masters, so they would definitely not find this place when they searched her body.
When everything was in order, there was a knock on the door.
When I opened the door, I saw a woman with a curtain covering her face.
She lifted the corner of the veil, and it was the palace maid of the Qianhuan Palace who entered the palace that day to divinate for the emperor, that is, the one who sent a message to the crown prince King Anyang.
The palace maid said: "The slave maid is ordered by King Nanliang to invite the holy daughter of Sixuan Sect to enter the Qianhuan Palace." ”
"What is the matter?" asked the holy woman, feigning surprise and frowning.
"The slave maid doesn't know," the palace maid still bowed her head and said, "I don't dare to speculate, but King Nanliang asked the slave maid to bring a word to the holy maid." ”
"What?"
"King Nanliang said that there is something in the Qianhuan Hall that Sixuanjiao wants. "The palace maid said quietly.
"You...... Wait for me to think about it. I have never met the king of Nanliang, how does he know what I want?"
"The slave maid can't answer," the palace maid's face grew cold, and she looked straight at the saint, "The saint can take a gamble." ”
The saint's heart beat faster, it seems that the fifth Shidan is likely to be in the Qianhuan Palace.
"All right," said the holy woman, "I'll go with you." ”
A conversation seems to be just a passing scene.
The saint secretly thought to herself, listening to the words of this palace maid, King Nanliang didn't seem to be simple.
He knew his identity, he was not a member of the Canglang Alliance, but a saint of the Sixuan Sect.
However, it seems that he did not tell the crown prince King Anyang about this. Otherwise, he should have already escaped by this time.
And what does this palace maid say, gambling?
The saint regretted that the beginning of the incident was different from what she expected.
I knew that I should have made a fortune last night.
"It's useless to think too much now," the saint reminded herself to clean up her mind, "Take one step at a time, and it's important to get the Fifth Pill." ”
There was a luxurious carriage parked outside the inn, which was very eye-catching, and pedestrians stopped one after another.
The onlookers saw a woman in the palace covered with a veil walking out of the inn, followed by a beautiful woman in red.
The beautiful woman in red got into the carriage first, and the masked woman followed.
"In the Qianhuan Palace, I'm afraid that there will be another happy event...... said a street person.
"Be quiet," another person next to him hurriedly said, "The matter of Qianhuan Hall cannot be discussed, how Cheng Er died, don't you remember?"
Frightened, the previous man quickly covered his mouth.
The carved and decorated carriage went all the way to the Qianhuan Palace.
Luoying of Qianhuan Hall is dry. Dust in the wind, no one will remember.
Empty.
This was her first impression when she stepped into the Qianhuan Palace, which was completely different from the drunken dream of death in her imagination.
Ivory mats, glazed collapses.
In the whole hall, there is the intoxicating fragrance of peach branches.
"You're here. ”
A man's voice came from behind the curtain. Vaguely, he was dressed in a black robe with black hair scattered all over his head.
The Qianhuan Hall was darker than expected, and the only bright color was her red dress.
"Yes, the people's daughter......" The holy woman owes herself, but she doesn't know whether she should report her name or not.
"It doesn't matter, the king knows who you are. Excuse me. ”
Therefore, in this empty Qianhuan Palace, his voice also sounded fluttering, and he didn't know where it came from.
"Thank you, His Royal Highness King Nanliang. The Holy Maiden said.
"Maybe you should call me His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Oh...... You don't know about it yet. After you left that day, my brother King Anyang ...... He's dead. ”
He's dead?
There was no news of this among the people, and the holy woman did not know what medicine was sold in his gourd, nor did she know whether this was true or false.
King Nanliang continued: "You believe it or not, but you know why I came to you, right?"
"Yes...... What is it?" asked the holy woman.
"I really don't know?"
"Your Highness said, there is something I want. ”
King Nanliang smiled and sat up from the couch, his hair flowing like a cloud with his movements.
"Yes, I heard that you are very smart, it seems to be true. Guess what I've got for you, it's not what you want. ”
Gritted teeth.
"Yes," said the saint, "and I know what you want me to give in exchange." ”
"Haha," King Nanliang smiled again, "What's the hurry." This king has always been pitiful and cherished, I will let you see what you want first. ”
He deliberately bit the words "pity the fragrance and cherish the jade" very hard.
