Chapter Twenty-Four: Mistakes
Back in the light breeze and drizzle building, Wuqing went straight back to the house and threw himself on the bed. He gained a lot this night, not only learned about Yan Luoling's identity and experience, and many secrets of the underworld, but also probably figured out the ins and outs of the Great Demon's invasion of the underworld.
According to the information provided by Yan Luoling and the description of the Great Demon God's Passage Law, Wuqing concluded that this Great Demon must be inextricably linked to the demon who attacked Fang Cun Mountain in the first place. Thinking of what Yan Luoling said about the ghost of the underworld fleeing to the yang world to make trouble, Wuqing felt that it was safer to talk to Dou Sandao and them, after all, it was not something he could solve alone.
Thinking about it, Wuqing's mind appeared the shy smile of the ninth princess again, and he couldn't help but show a smile on his face, he grew up with his master since he was a child, and then traveled the world alone, along the way, the people he saw, and the things he was in made him add a little bit of undeserved vicissitudes. Seeing this Nine Princesses this time, he felt joy and beauty from his heart for the first time, recalling the eyes and smiles of the Nine Princesses, which made his mind blank, which was proficient in various scriptures and classics, and only four words filled it: good-looking, really beautiful!
Thinking about the ninth princess like this, Wuqing's eyelids gradually became heavy, and finally fell asleep with a smile.
............
The Xuanshi in the next room was a little bad at this time, so much so that he didn't read the scriptures in the morning class.
Yesterday, after the eldest brother Wuqing was called away, Xuanshi, as the newly appointed master of the Xuanwu Hall, became the main target of everyone's toast, although there are monks who can only use tea instead of wine to push the monks, but dozens of pots of strong tea under the stomach, but also made him really a little unbearable, this night was stunned to run three times to the toilet, but what surprised him was that his eldest brother did not return overnight, it seems that the affairs in the palace are quite tricky. When Wuqing returned to the house, Xuanshi heard the movement and wanted to let the eldest brother have a good rest, so he didn't bother. When he went to the front hall for breakfast, Xuanshi happened to meet Dou Sandao returning from outside.
"Dou Duwei," Xuanshi said, "My eldest brother has just come back, it seems that you have been busy all night!"
"Huh?" Dou Sandao paused in astonishment: "He just came back, I sent him out of the palace early in the morning last night!"
"Wouldn't it?" Xuanshi was also stunned, "My eldest brother really didn't return all night yesterday!"
Dou Sandao frowned and thought for a while, and the more he thought about it, the more shocked he became: "Oh no! Didn't he sneak into the palace quietly yesterday and have a private meeting with the Ninth Princess?" Even if the palace's protective array is more clever than Shili Peak, it is estimated that in Wuqing's eyes, it is just a matter of spending a few more talismans, according to Wuqing's ability, it is not difficult to really sneak into the palace to avoid people's eyes and find the ninth princess, and then think about the stupidity of this young man who loves to do foolish things, the more Dou Sandao thinks about it, the more he thinks it is possible, and a layer of fine sweat instantly breaks out on his head, if it is really like that...... Dou Sandao didn't dare to think about it anymore, and hurriedly rushed to the backyard, and when Xuanshi saw it, he quickly followed.
Dou Sandao pushed open the door of Wuqing's room, saw that Wuqing was sleeping soundly on the bed and clothes, and then saw that his face was still smiling in his sleep, full of spring, Dou Sandao felt more and more that what he expected was good, I don't know whether he was scared or angry, stretched out a trembling hand and pushed Wuqing: "Brother, brother, wake up!"
Wu Qing had only fallen asleep for a short time, and when he was sleepy, he opened his eyes in a daze, and saw that it was Dou Sandao standing in front of his bed, looking at himself with a sad face, and he didn't think much about it, but asked vaguely: "What's the matter with Brother Dou?"
Dou Sandao coughed, stabilized his mind, and asked in a calm tone as much as possible: "Brother ...... last night" He originally wanted to ask his brother what he did last night? But he has extremely rich experience in handling cases, and he thought about it, if he asks like this, it will make Wuqing have space to think subconsciously, it is better to use a closed question and answer directly, and it is better to answer directly while his mind is not very sober, but Xuanshi is on the side, and it is not easy to say the honorific name of the ninth princess, thinking of this, Dou Sandao changed his words and said: "Brother ...... last night But spent the night alone with the woman?"
Coincidentally, Wuqing did stay with a woman yesterday, and his brain was not very bright at this time, and he subconsciously felt that Luo Ling knew Dou Sandao Xuanshi together, and there was nothing to hide, so he forgot that they didn't know that Luo Ling had looked for him yesterday, and his mind didn't turn that corner, and he replied in a daze: "Yes! I stayed with her last night, and I didn't come back until dawn, and I was trapped to death, so I'll talk about it later, I'll sleep first." After saying that, he lay down again, turned over and fell asleep.
Wuqing was asleep, but Dou Sandao was about to collapse on the ground.
"Woe to you! Woe to you!" Dou Sandao wanted to cry and sat down against the wall without tears, I really didn't expect it! Wu Qing This kid is really cowardly! He really dared to break into the palace at night to meet the princess privately! As for why it was a private meeting instead of a secret humiliation, he stayed in the palace all night yesterday, and there was no wind at all, if it wasn't for Lang You's concubine's intention, how could this kid stay there for a night?
Dou Sandao thought hatefully, now it depends on how this matter develops and then think of a solution, the palace has not moved until now, it seems that the ninth princess has not told anyone about this matter, so there is still room for maneuver in this matter, it depends on whether the two of them do that foolish thing...... This little bastard even broke into the palace, saying that he didn't have the courage to do that...... Who believes......
Dou Sandao sat there, the more he thought about it, the more scared he became, Xuanshi stood aside, looked at the eldest brother in his sleep, and then looked at Dou Sandao who was sweating profusely, thinking about the words of "woman" just now, Rao is Xuanshi is extremely smart, and he didn't understand what this was about, but looking at Dou Sandao's reaction, he still didn't ask.
At this time, a Jin Wuwei came, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw his own lieutenant sitting in the corner of the wall, although it was not easy to ask about the difference in his heart, so he walked straight over and leaned over to report: "Lieutenant, sent by the department, you personally led two teams of captains to escort the nine princesses out of the palace!"
............
Dou Sandao held a knife to protect the side of the nine princesses' tuanfeng sedan chair, and looked at the looming faces of the nine princesses sitting in it through the screen window of the sedan chair, and couldn't help but feel a burst of sadness in his heart...... But after thinking about it, the brother I Dou Sandao recognized was amazing! One of the most precious flowers in the Great Jin Dynasty was picked by him in a flash! It's really ...... Terrible!
Thinking of this, Dou Sandao's tense square face showed a smile, and he couldn't help but laugh.
The nine princesses in the sedan chair are actually out of the palace today is actually a pre-set itinerary, is to move to the palace outside Chang'an City Furong Garden for summer vacation, after a few days the current emperor will also move to the Furong Garden, leaving only the current prince, that is, the father of the nine princesses, Prince Rong regent, this is also a process before the new and old emperors alternate rights, the elder brothers and younger brothers of the nine princesses have been sent to ordinary people outside the palace to raise them in accordance with the ancestral teachings when they were young, and now there is only the nine princesses in the palace A young royal family, those who only have sons and no daughters are even more cherished by this niece, so in this hot summer, The Furong Garden, which has always been only accessible to the emperor and empress, naturally opened its doors to the nine princesses.
Because it was the first time to go to Furong Garden, the ninth princess was also very excited to look around, and this side of the head happened to see Dou Sandao with a smile on his face, and suddenly thought of the man with the sword on his back who was soaked all over yesterday, and thought of the sentence he praised himself, "You are so good-looking!" The ninth princess's face was a little ruddy for no reason, and she asked softly: "Captain Sandao, where is your friend named Wuqing?"
Dou Sandao's heart is really here! I was thinking about how to answer if the Ninth Princess asked Wuqing, and replied unhurriedly at this moment: "Back to the Ninth Princess, Wuqing has settled in Chang'an City and will live for a while." ”
The ninth princess didn't know what Dou Sandao was thinking, so she smiled casually: "That person is funny. ”
Dou Sandao said with disdain in his heart, if this kid is not interesting, he will not be able to enter the eyes of the princess, but he still said respectfully: "The people of the countryside are vulgar and unbearable, which makes the princess laugh." ”
The ninth princess didn't speak anymore, but just sat in the tuanfeng sedan chair with a smile.
............
At sunset, Wuqing finally stretched a big lazy waist, and got up from the bed with satisfaction, it was dinner time, Wuqing hurriedly freshened up, and found Xuanshi who was sitting opposite Yu Renbo in the front hall, the three of them sat at a table, waiting for the meal to be served, Xuanshi looked at the energetic Wuqing, and asked cautiously: "Big brother still remember that Dou Duwei called you in the morning?"
was reminded by Xuanshiyi, Wuqing had some impressions, as if Dou Sandao had asked him about something. But I couldn't remember the specific moment and a half, so I asked Xuanshi, "What is Brother Dou looking for me?"
Xuanshi saw that Wuqing had almost forgotten about it, so he helped him recall: "Brother Dou asked if you were with a woman yesterday, and you said yes, big brother." ”
"Oh! yes! I remembered!" Wuqing suddenly realized, and then after thinking about it again, he smiled and said: "This Jin Wuwei is really worthy of his name, yesterday I thought it was unaware, but I didn't expect to be monitored by Jin Wuwei!"
looked at Yu Renbo, who was dressed in white on the side, and said, "Yesterday, that Luo Ling found me, she was really a woman, she found me and said it was ...... She found that some powerful ghosts came out of nowhere and were wreaking havoc in the world, she couldn't be busy alone, so I asked me to help her, and I agreed, Brother Yu's swordsmanship is exquisite, but I don't know what to do with this ghostly thing......"
Yu Wenbo on the side said: "Yu's spell also has a restraining effect on ghosts, and I am willing to do my part." ”
Wu Qingxi said: "There are many people and great power, then it will be counted as your share!"
Wuqing looked left and right and asked Xuanshi, "Isn't Brother Dou here?"
Xuanshi replied: "I was called away in the morning, it was Jin Wuwei's tolerance, and he said that he was escorting the ninth princess or something......"
Wuqing was stunned when he heard the Ninth Princess, and then his eyes lit up and said, "Escort the Ninth Princess?"
Xuanshi shook his head and said, "I don't know, just say escort out of the palace, don't say anything else, big brother...... What kind of eyes are you, it feels like a wild dog outside the temple has seen flesh and bones......"
