Chapter 32: Prince Rong's Mansion
As the prince, Prince Rong's mansion is not far from the palace, and the yellow gate guards in the palace are readily available, just like a small palace. Prince Rong was fostered in an ordinary peasant family since childhood, he had talent and learning as a child, unlike the stubbornness of children of the same age, his favorite thing to do was to listen to Mr. Teach outside the private school in the village, and after enlightenment, he studied poetry and books hard, and at the age of sixteen or seventeen, he has become a famous talent in ten miles and eight villages.
After Prince Rong returned to the royal family as an adult, the huge change from the ordinary people to the prince did not blind his mind, and he has been humble and guarded, treating people with courtesy, and after the current emperor appointed him as the prince and arranged for him to teach the etiquette and the way of the king, in a short period of time, several teachers praised the prince, who respected the teacher and was humble and studious, and praised him, saying that he could become a generation of Ming Jun.
When Wuqing was taken directly into Prince Rong's palace by the eunuchs, he found that the palace eunuchs who came and went had sincere faces, and they were polite and polite in every word, and they couldn't help but secretly sigh that this Prince Rong was really clever in running the house!
After several eunuchs led Wuqing to the front hall, they bowed down and retreated, leaving only Wuqing alone in the entire front hall. Wuqing looked around, the front hall was arranged in a graceful and restrained manner, and every arrangement was in line with the avenue, which made people look comfortable and transparent, and it was obviously guided by a master.
After two pillars of incense, a middle-aged man in a dragon robe walked in, seven feet tall, with a golden crown and jade belt, three locks of black beard, and white face and red lips. After this person came in, he glanced at Wuqing, who got up and saluted, and said with a smile: "Wuqing, come on, sit!"
After the two sat down, Prince Rong looked at Wuqing carefully, which made Wuqing feel a little more nervous for no reason.
After a while, Prince Rong smiled and said: "I heard about you and Xin'er, and this king also knows the attitude of his father, although he is reluctant, but the man should marry the woman when he marries, and the king will never act against the grain, and Xin'er is very much like her mother, although she is well-behaved and stubborn, I heard that you have only met Xin'er twice before and after, I sent someone to ask Xin'er's personal female officer, she has a good impression of you, otherwise she will not excuse you." β
Wuqing didn't say anything, just looked at Prince Rong with a smile, knowing that he would still have a follow-up.
Sure enough, Prince Rong changed the topic and said: "Today in the palace, my father and the emperor made it clear to you, my Dajin royal family ancestral law, prohibiting all royal family members from practicing, if you marry Xin'er, then you are a concubine, which is inconsistent with my Dajin royal family ancestral law." β
Wuqing arched his hand and said: "Prince Rong, I fell in love with the princess at first sight, and I will not give up this love......"
Prince Rong waved his hand and said, "This king will not allow this matter, but this matter is indeed inconsistent with the royal ancestral law, and this matter needs to be planned again." Speaking of which, I have two sons and a daughter, because of the royal rules and two sons are not by my side, only Xin'er has grown up under my knees since childhood, saying a word of self-consideration, Xin'er is like my heart and liver, my father intends to promote you and Xin'er's affairs, I have mixed feelings in my heart, I don't know how to describe it. After speaking, he sighed lightly, and his heart trembled when he heard it, as if he had done something unseemly stealing.
Prince Rong saw that he was a little weak-hearted, and couldn't help but smile again: "You don't have to worry about anything, this king knows that you are a disciple of Fangcun Mountain, and you deserve to say a word about the children of the gods, listening to Jin Wuwei's people say that your Taoism is profound, and you are a young master in the rivers and lakes. β
Wuqing was overjoyed in his heart, is this the old man in folklore?
Prince Rong looked at the young man with an ordinary face in front of him, and sighed in his heart that his daughter was beautiful and beautiful, how could he look at such a black boy differently? Could it be that this is the legendary fate?
Then he asked Wu Qingdao: "I heard that you are still living in the Qingfeng Drizzle Building?"
Wuqing nodded and said, "I haven't been in Chang'an for a long time, so I'm staying there temporarily. β
Prince Rong said: "The breeze and drizzle building was first created, not a place to live for a long time, this king has a courtyard outside the south city, called 'Fengyuan', although small but quiet, this king will reward you!"
Wu Qing was about to refuse, but Prince Rong said: "You don't have to shirk, this can be regarded as a reward from the elders for you!"
Having said that, Wuqing can only say some words of gratitude. After chatting some more gossip, Wuqing left the palace.
Standing outside the Zhu Gate of the Palace, Wuqing rubbed his head, this half a day really made him feel a little dreamlike, first summoned by the emperor, and then summoned by Prince Rong, last night he was still in the Furong Garden surrounded by the princess's guards to be arrested, and today I look at the matter with the princess There is a feeling of sudden enlightenment!
"It's not a dream, is it?!" Gokiyo rubbed his head and began to return......
............
Over the East China Sea, a gust of wind swept by, Xiao Hachi's figure loomed in the wind, since he got this divine weapon in his hand, after Xiao Hachi calmed down, he figured out that this was actually the compensation given to him by the East China Sea Dragon Palace! Otherwise, how could a dragon easily take out such a divine weapon and make a child'ish bet with himself? It seems that the East China Sea Dragon Palace must know its heels, otherwise just relying on his identity as a tiger-headed monster, not to mention compensation, it is very likely that he will directly kill himself here!
"Although the ghost tooth double hammer given by the third master is gone, this Dharma Protector Demon Slayer is more in line with me. Xiao Ba looked at the scepter in his hand, grinned for a while, and then thought secretly, the third master let himself go down the mountain, and now the reputation has not yet been called, but the guy given by the master was lost in the East China Sea Dragon Palace, it is estimated that he will not want to get it back in a short time, and now the master will definitely not be able to go back, and Xiniu Hezhou does not want to go back, the reputation of his own Lion Camel Ridge is too fierce, and others are hiding when they see him, how to break through? There is a family that is not afraid of its own master, but that sect can't be provoked by itself, anyway, Xiaoba himself has a headache when he sees it, so it seems that it is better to stay in this Dongsheng Divine Continent, there are many immortal cultivators, and there are many strange things in the sect, such as Wuqing, who is said to be the heir of Fangcun Mountain, only to know not long after he gave himself a Xuanbing mask, and invited himself to catch some powerful ghosts, and now he has a magic weapon in his hand, and he just went back to promise him, first, to return the favor, and secondly, to run in this protector to destroy demons, thinking of this, Xiaobahu roared, and flew away in the direction of Chang'an with the windγ

At the bottom of the East China Sea, outside the Crystal Palace, Qingjiao, who had lost the Dharma Protector Demon Killer in the previous competition with Xiao Ba, was curling up and bowing his head and whispering to Prime Minister Guicheng: "The tiger monster's fist hit Xiao Jiao's body, Xiao Jiao, I only felt like a mountain weighing ten thousand pounds directly on the top of my head, making it difficult for me to move, so that guy took this opportunity to take the Dharma Protector and destroy the demon and left." β
Prime Minister Gui closed his eyes and nodded slightly, and said slowly: "You did a good job, reward you with a bottle of Wulong Pill, remember, keep your mouth shut, don't make a noise about this matter, if I know, I will not spare you!" said and took out a green jade vial from his sleeve and threw it over.
Qingjiao took the jade bottle with both hands and retreated with a thousand thanks. It wasn't until it swam away that Prime Minister Gui Cheng said to himself: "Such a fierce move, only the pictogram moves of the second master of the Lion Camel Ridge will have such power, so it seems that it is indeed a disciple of the Lion Camel Ridge, but this Lion Camel Ridge has always only been active in Xiniu Hezhou, and has never sent a disciple down the mountain alone...... The Dragon Lord also demoted Prince Qiu out of the palace...... Could it be that there is no connection between this......"
After muttering for a long time and not coming up with a reason, Prime Minister Turtle shook his head, and decided not to think about these troublesome things anymore, since the matter that the Dragon King had explained, then he had to report it, thinking of this, Prime Minister Turtle walked into the Crystal Palace step by step......
............
Chang'an City, in the palace of Prince Rong, after sending Wuqing away, Prince Rong returned to the back house, and a woman in a red palace robe greeted him surrounded by palace maids.
"How?" the woman asked, asking directly.
Prince Rong looked at the graceful and luxurious woman in front of him, and said with a gentle smile: "In my eyes, although his appearance is a little ordinary, he has his own bearing, and he is a young man who exudes arrogance from his bones." β
The woman in the palace costume seemed to be relieved when she heard this, she knew that although her husband looked modest and okay on weekdays, he actually had a very high vision, and the person who could enter his eyes was naturally not wrong.
"That's fine," said the woman, too, with a smile, "well, in my mind's mind she's still a little girl who only knows how to play and play!
Prince Rong stepped forward and walked forward with the woman's wrist in his arms, and sighed: "Yes, in my heart, Xin'er is also the little daughter who is playing around us, and I don't think that there is already an idea of a stinky boy beating her now!"
The woman pursed her lips and was happy: "It is said that the father-in-law and son-in-law are enemies, you see, just now you praised others, and now you have become a stinky boy." β
Prince Rong patted the woman's hand and said with a smile: "But it is not easy for this Wuqing to marry our daughter, although his master Fang Cun Mountain has a great reputation, but after all, he is a cultivator in the mountains, our ancestral law has an order, and the royal family is not allowed to practice, if he is quite a concubine, this matter is not easy!"
When the woman heard this, she stopped and asked, "How can that be good?" I heard the female official say that our Xin'er also seems to have affection for this enlightenment, if it is really because the ancestral law is not comprehensive, I am afraid that Xin'er will be sad. β
Prince Rong let out a long sigh, looked at his wife's slightly worried face, couldn't help but reach out and touch it, and said softly: "Don't worry! I thought about it, if it really doesn't work, I will remove Xin'er from the royal family tree." β
"Ah?" the woman said, as if she had been struck by lightning, and said in a lost voice: "How can this work? Isn't there no ancestor left if the name is removed from the family tree? If this is the case, I will not agree to this family affair in death!"
Prince Rong was silent for a while, how could he not know in his heart that this method was the next choice, but he really couldn't find a good way for a while.
"Don't worry!" After a while, Prince Rong comforted his wife and said, "Why should we bother with this? I see that kid is very witty, and this problem will be solved by him, if he doesn't have this ability, don't think about our family's Xin'er!"
