Chapter 23 Seeing Him Rise Zhu Lou
The ministers who were invited to the banquet were basically brought their families to attend, so it was not lively. When Zhen Xun drank the seventh glass of wine, the dinner party had already come to an end, she looked at King Cheng who was sitting in the middle, and still didn't know how to speak, did her words be a little heavy this afternoon? Do you want to apologize to King Cheng, but will this make it seem that you are too weak as a goddess? What to do? Ay? How did he see it? Zhen Xun hurriedly picked up the millet porridge that was placed aside, blocking King Cheng's view of him.
The millet porridge is still warm, Zhen Xun feels a little funny, could it be that it is specially prepared so that the guests will not hurt their stomachs after drinking? is so healthy, and the modern "beer and wolfberry" has a fight, she glanced around, only the millet porridge of Gong Gong bottomed out.
After stopping waves of "peach blossoms" for his brother, Yun Chuan, who was sitting next to Gongzi Gao, was already tired, he poked his brother and motioned him to look at the master and servant at the next table.
What's wrong? His brother's brain circuit has always been different from others, and Gongzi Gao didn't know what Yun Chuan meant, so he pushed a plate of melons to Yun Chuan's side.
Yun Chuan was not sent away by a plate of rare melons, and poked his incomprehensible brother again: "Sister Zhen Xun has been staring at His Royal Highness King Cheng just now." ”
"His Royal Highness King Cheng is good-looking." Childe took a sip of wine, his rosy lips slowly opened, and he said this.
"My brother is also very good-looking." Yun Chuan held his cheeks in one flesh hand and motioned to Gongzi Gao to look at Zhen Xun, "It's a good match to be with Zhen Xun's sister, just like the fortune teller under the bridge said that day, standing together is a pair of beautiful people." Besides...... "Besides, brother, you are twenty and eight years old this year, and I haven't even seen the shadow of my sister-in-law......
Gongzi Gao gently knocked on Yun Chuan's head with a chopstick, this kid, what are you thinking! The goddess is something that a mortal can blaspheme? Gongzi Gao thought that he still had this bit of self-knowledge, he looked sideways at Zhen Xun's side face, looking at the candle flame outlining her cold outline, Zhen Xun is not like other nobles with gorgeous hair, nor like other courtiers like left and right, she looks out of place in a staggered situation, whether it is a person or a fairy, will she feel lonely when she comes to this strange place?
"Brother, I asked Sister Zhen Xun, she said that it is possible to intermarry between humans and gods, and she has no crush on anyone yet."
Yunchuan said that the day of the fortune teller under the bridge Lao Suo was two years ago when he skipped class to go to the eastern suburbs to play, that day he heard his friends say that someone in the eastern suburbs of Tongyuan River saw a big red fish to be a zhang long, then I couldn't bear the idea of wanting to see a long time in the past, stunned that I couldn't even see a word on the bamboo slip, a person secretly ran out of the wall, the red fish did not see, but saw a fortune teller Lao Suo, he was curious for a while, with his brother's birthday eight characters to calculate the marriage, Lao Suo did not collect money, only left the "God-given beloved" four words.
I don't know if it's the wine intoxicating, or the joy of the family is intoxicating, Zhen Xun left the table alone, planning to blow the wind, but the bright moonlight told her that it was a full moon again, and she hadn't reunited with relatives and friends for a long time, she picked a branch of privet casually, sat down on the stone table, and crushed the gray-white powder on the Jurchen leaves with her fingers, she knew in her heart that this was not dust, but big-leaf boxwood powdery meal, Zhen Xun laughed softly, remembering the plant pathology experimental class when she was in college, when they were looking for experimental materials, Squatting in the school's flower bed, pulling those flowers and plants.
While reminiscing, while looking at the staggered palace, Zhen Xun couldn't help but be moved by the prosperity of more than 3,000 years ago, she gently tapped the table with her nails, and sang a Kunqu opera in her memory:
“…… I once saw the warbler crying in the Jinling Jade Palace, and the flowers of the Qinhuai Water Pavilion bloomed early, who knew that it would be easy to freeze! Seeing him get up Zhu Lou, seeing him feasting guests, seeing him - "one bang" the building collapsed! Before he finished singing, he turned his head and saw the young man who was walking in style.
Gongzi Gao listened to her humming quietly, but Zhen Xun couldn't sing.
"You're singing so well, am I bothering you?"
No, this is a Kunqu opera that should not appear in this dynasty, "No, it's just that I can't remember how to sing it next." Zhen Xun blinked his eyes slowly, his eyes turned to the upper right, and then to the upper left, the eight-hundred-year-old concert was just a Zhu Mansion that was once full of friends in the long river of history.
"Are you still having fun?" Gongzi Gao sat next to Zhen Xun and asked.
"Have fun." Zhen Xun held his slightly swollen forehead, but he still didn't use his mana to dispel the drunkenness, just tilted his head, relied on the wine, squinted his eyes and joked with a smile: "Gongzi Gao left the table like this, but let those noble girls who are happy with you easy to find, tsk, how many hearts have you disappointed?" ”
"It's really wronged." Gongzi Gao continued to say to Zhen Xun's inquiring expression, "I politely refused the girl who came to show me goodwill, I have never had an affair with anyone, I have never accepted it, so why live up to it?" ”
At this moment, Gongzi's high-profile face is close at hand, but, it seems to be a little different, under the instigation of alcohol, Zhen Xun looked at the person in front of him indulgently, with a lazy tiredness in his eyebrows and eyes, and his thin lips were dyed with a little tenderness, which was different from his previous impression, colder than the moonlight.
As if he was embarrassed, Gongzi Gao turned his head and muttered, "It's Yunchuan, he'...... He said you came out, he was worried that you wouldn't know the way, so let me come out and have a look......"
Looking up at the night sky, Zhen Xun said casually: "It's okay, I'm just homesick." Zhen Xun originally just made a temporary excuse, but he didn't expect that as soon as the word "home" was spoken, his eyes became sour, and the silver moon sprinkled with teeth, as if he had teeth, and the people who looked at it felt pain in their hearts.
Zhen Xun's appearance made the master of the son at a loss, and it happened that a thin sound from the flowers on the side broke the embarrassment.
Gongzi Gao motioned to Zhen Xun not to panic, then plucked a leaf from the privet in her hand and threw it at the flowers on the side.
Hearing only an "ouch", a man rolled out in embarrassment with his cheeks covered. The man's figure looked a little familiar, Zhen Xun recognized him from his clothes in the moonlight, he was one of the foremen who had been building the laboratory for a while.
"What are you doing here?" This group of workers was found by Gongzi Gao, and every worker who entered the palace had investigated his net worth background, and all of them were innocent and had no bad habits.
Gongzi Gao's eyes were scrutinized: This worker has worked for a day and doesn't go back to rest, is there any unsavory purpose in eavesdropping here? Could it be an assassin who infiltrated the palace?
Before Gongzi Gao interrogated, he knelt down with a tremor in his legs, and begged in his mouth: Miss Zhen, Zhen Xun, save the missing women in our southern suburbs!
The beast hasn't been captured yet, so that's all the efficiency of the people you're looking for? Zhen Xun pouted at Gongzi. Gongzi Gao said that they sent a team of people, but this fierce beast is elusive, agile, not only fast to run, but also to swim and climb trees......
After calming the emotional Ka Wen, he sat down and talked about what he had encountered in recent days.
Last night, he received a message from his father and mother that his wife was almost abducted by a fierce beast while feeding pigs, and because she was frightened, the fetus in her womb was almost miscarried. The father and mother who got stuck and smelled went to the land temple—
Land Temple? Your lady was frightened and almost miscarried, shouldn't she go to the doctor? Zhen Xun was about to ask a question, when he heard Gongzi Gao interrupt Ka Yanwen's words, "Then you won't go to ask a doctor?" Miss Zhen will not see a doctor. Gongzi Gao looked at Zhen Xun, he didn't want Zhen Xun to make a move, a silk thread, a bamboo slip, and her divine power was not blown by the wind.
No, no, no, I hurriedly shook my hand, my father and mother invited a doctor, but they were not at ease, so I went to the land temple again, and wanted to ask for a safe sign, I originally didn't believe in these gods and gods, but my father and mother went to the land temple to ask for a sign and didn't tell me, but that night, I dreamed of the land man, he asked me, go to the city gate to remove the notice of recruitment, I thought about buying some supplements for the lady, the woman gave birth to a child and the ghost door was closed, my mother was beautiful, I also wanted to buy her some rouge hair oil or something, My mother told me that she also gave me a pair of shoes, and I was reluctant to wear those shoes, and put them under the pillow...... The black face that smelled full of stubble showed tenderness.
"Ahem-" Childe Gao coughed a few times and interrupted Ka Wen's words, "I know that you are in love, and then what?" ”
Ka Yanwen went on to say that today the nobles went to the banquet, and their workers also left work early, and he was going to squint for a while, but he met the land lord who gave him a dream.
"Go into the palace to find a beautiful woman surnamed Zhen and borrow a knife called what is called Suwei? The land lord told me that only that knife can solve the evil beast, his mana is meager, the rank of immortal is low, and the palace has dragon qi to suppress him and he can't enter, and then he threw me an object. ”
As he spoke, he took out something wrapped in a white cloth: "It's a token, I didn't believe in the dream, but when I woke up, I found that this thing did appear on the side of the bed—"
Gongzi Gao stretched out his hand and wanted to take the thing handed over by Ka Wen, but was directly ignored by Ka Wen.
Zhen Xun took the small package and opened it layer by layer: inside was a piece of lotus root with a little dry skin.
Zhen Xun took the lotus root directly, she remembered that the last time the land was washed by Gongzi Gao, the thing she took out was a lotus pod, and she deduced in her heart that the land and the lotus flower might have some connection.
"The land lord said, Miss Zhen broke this thing, and he will appear." Ka Wen added this, and stretched his neck curiously, he also wanted to see how the land lord appeared from this lotus root.
Gongzi Gao wanted to help, but when he saw Zhen Xun snapping and breaking the lotus root with thick arms, was he a little redundant?
The lotus silk is implicated, forming a white curtain, and the land lord then appears on the white curtain composed of this lotus silk, Zhen Xun is not surprised, but he feels that it is a bit similar to a modern video call, the content of the land lord is no different from what he said just now, and he wants to borrow Su Wei from Zhen Xun, the relentless pattern on Su Wei is cast by the craftsman, and naturally there is also the divine power blessing of the fierce beast, the fierce beast has a great background, and the ordinary sword can't stop it, the land lord finally explained.
"You can't borrow a knife, someone can lend it to you." Zhen Xun thought that the lotus root flour balls had told her that the relentless pattern of the Siwei Mansion logo must not flow out, so let's pause the preparations in the laboratory and go to the southern suburbs.
The next day was a rare cold spring, and there were a little snowflakes in the sky, but the three of them still rushed to the land temple in the southern suburbs early in the morning.
"I'll just take a nap, who threw a dead rabbit at my house? If you let the young master catch this person, you have to peel off his skin—" Before the pimple head man arrived, the shouting voice came first, and he broke into the land temple in a rage, and threw the things in his hand in front of Xiao Jizi.
A fishy smell of decay exploded......
Xiao Jizi covered her nose, and the land lord looked at Xiao Jizi, the most courageous of these elves was her, presumably she was angry for the other brothers and sisters who were bullied by the pimple.
Seeing the land prince and the pimple looking at him, Xiao Jizi's pupils shrank suddenly, and his eyebrows and eyes were full of disgust, "Don't look down on people, I want to take revenge and take revenge with dignity, so that I won't make these indiscriminate methods." You are also a pimple head, throwing it at your door, you don't even see who threw it? ”
