fake prince

Chapter 154

In the middle of the night, a few cat meows came from outside the window.

Su Ziji woke up all of a sudden, saying that he was not that hypocritical, they were both married couples, although Ye Buhui was too young and did not consummate their marriage, they still slept together.

When he woke up, seeing a little movement, Ye Buhui turned over, slowly got off the couch, put on his shoes, and walked out with light steps.

It was still raining in the courtyard, and there was no one there.

He looked at it for a while, then turned around and wanted to go back. The little furry fox came out from the darkness, and it looked at him with its strange green eyes in this rainy night, without blinking, as if examining him.

"Go to sleep." Said softly to the little fox, Su Ziji went back to the bedroom and lay down again.

This sleep went straight into the morning.

Because the rain kept falling, the sun didn't see for a long time, Su Ziji also got used to the slightly dark environment outside when he woke up.

But it was getting late, got up again, put on shoes, changed clothes, was about to go out, Ye Buhui also woke up in a daze, rubbed his eyes and asked: "It's so early, eat breakfast outside?"

"Yes, you can eat by yourself when you get up, I may come back later today." After finishing speaking, Su Ziji went out.

After Su Ziji walked out, Ye Buhui changed his dazed look, raised his small face in thought, showing a hint of worry.

She is Su Ziji's bedside person, and she is ice-snow and smart, how could she not feel that Su Ziji is planning some big events recently?

But since Su Ziji didn't intend to tell her, it must be because she couldn't help much. In this case, she had no choice but to pretend to be stupid and arrange the family affairs so that Su Ziji would come back, so that she wouldn't worry about trivial things bother.

It is said that regret teaches husbands and sons-in-law to seek titles, and men become a little different when they have skills, but Ye Buhui feels that Su Ziji must be different.

"...chirp!" The girl in front of her was sitting up lazily, and the little fox stretched out her claws.

"Ah, no, you are not allowed to sleep on the couch." Seeing it stretching out its claws, Ye Buhui shook his head: "Even if the claws are clean, it's not allowed."

The only bad thing about this little fox is that it always wants to sleep on the couch secretly. Ye Buhui pushed its fox head vigorously and drove it off: "Go to your fox's lair."

The little fox tilted his head slightly to express his protest.

Ye Buhui grabbed the little fox's head, got up and settled down on the couch: "Your fox's den has been paved several floors, and you still want to touch the couch, I hate it."

As she spoke, she hugged the little fox, threw it up, and nodded it seriously: "You must not be disobedient, do you hear me?"

The little fox fell sideways onto the soft fox nest, staring sideways without blinking.

"...chirp"

In its eyes, although it has been raining and the room is relatively dark, the girl's skin is more than snow, emitting a dark white light.

The little fox was a little confused, she didn't notice, did she change during this period of time?

Not knowing what he was trying to hide, he was already guessed by Buhui, so Su Ziji left the residence, held an umbrella and walked for a while, and came to the breakfast shop where he often made appointments with wild Taoists.

This is a small restaurant on the street. It has been opened by three generations for decades. Although it is not as old as the time-honored brand, many of those shops were destroyed in the flames of war. Instead, it is this small restaurant. It was here when people fled. Root, how many years since the Zheng Dynasty was established, is probably how many years the restaurant has been open.

The young third-generation boss is working with his gray-haired father, and there are several women who are busy, probably also a family.

Because no outsiders are used, the front and back yards of this small restaurant are all their own houses, and the capital is low, so the food they sell is good and cheap.

Su Ziji likes to drink a bowl of slightly spicy noodle soup and a drawer of steamed buns here in the morning. Everything is piping hot. After eating and drinking, his body is warm. In this cold rainy season, he feels much more comfortable.

When the time came, the wild Taoist also arrived, and Su Ziji walked over without saying a word, and the noodle soup and steamed buns made by the shop were brought up.

The two chatted while eating.

"Last night you passed on the code again, but has there been a change in the Huang Mansion?" Su Ziji asked slowly after taking a sip of the noodle soup, feeling the heat slipping down his throat.

"Originally, Brother Hao wanted to help me inquire about one or two things, but no one came to the banquet with the people from the Huang family last night. Brother Hao immediately realized that there was a change. He was afraid of being implicated, so he brought someone to change overnight. out of place."

"I asked him to inquire about the news and spent some money. He felt guilty for not doing good things for me, so he asked someone to contact me at night and told me not to go to the Huangfu again."

"It is said that the Huang Mansion may be controlled by someone, and when they get close, some people will secretly look at it."

"It seems that the situation is similar to what we estimated." Su Ziji seemed to have expected this a long time ago, so he was not surprised.

"Jia Yuan, you are still being stared at."

"Yes." Ye Daoist agreed, then said hesitantly, "My lord, there is one more thing."

He lowered his voice a little: "You asked me to investigate the abnormal people or places. Brothers from the Beggar Gang helped. They are familiar with Shuanghua Mansion, and they really know that there are some strange places. They are located in Xishan County and Baishan County. Several rivers and lakes in the county have legends of water demons, and they dare not pass by easily, and people and animals will disappear if they pass by."

"But recently, these places are a bit different. They never said how they are different. I think that maybe the original owners of those places have gone to other places."

Is it Xishan County or Baishan County?

Su Ziji paused slightly, and ordered: "There is no need for them to investigate this matter in the future. It is estimated that something will happen recently, so let them withdraw and find a place to hide first, so as not to cause disaster."

As for what will happen, Su Ziji speculates that it may be related to water control.

But this may involve the actions of the Yaozu, as well as the disputes between the court factions. A small group of local snakes like the Beggar Gang will die quietly if they get involved.

Even if there is a conspiracy, if you block one, you won't be able to block the next one. As long as the monsters don't stop fighting, and as long as it keeps raining, how long can the dikes and dams keep blocking it?

Thinking of the Taoists who followed the imperial envoy Luo Pei, Su Ziji was puzzled early on: "These Taoists are really capable, why don't they stop the rain?"

Another thought: "Maybe once the demon clan gathers, there will be a lot of them, and the limited number of Taoists will not be able to compete with them."

"The awakening of the monster race is difficult, but once it is cultivated, it will live for a long time. The magic spells it is good at are almost instinctive. How can humans compare?"

Originally, I wanted to establish the Zheng Dynasty, which would suppress the Yaozu. Many shrines even hinted that they would no longer worship. The court is also cultivating talents. Will it be a fatal blow to the Yaozu?

Looking at it now, the remnant forces of the water demon alone can cause such a disaster. When the demon emperor was still at its peak, how horrifying and frightening should the power of the demon clan be?

It's no wonder that after the change of dynasty, the court's attitude towards the Yaozu was very subtle.

"Yaozu, making such a disturbance, isn't it suppressed by factors such as God's will or sin?"

"No, the fish demon said last time that there will be a catastrophe of ten thousand demons, so it should be one of the suppressions."

"I really can't figure it out!" Su Ziji frowned.
