Great Sui Storyteller

Chapter 356 355. After that day
"Miss... is coming to the capital."

Suddenly, Hongying brought this matter directly to the table.

Li Zhen nodded:
"Well, I heard that night."

As he spoke, he looked at Hongying's slightly red face, and after hesitating between saying and not saying, he sighed:
"Ugh……"

And just when Hongying wanted to ask him why he sighed, she heard a sentence:
"You should know that the moment Mr. Jing Chan came to the capital, it was like a sheep entering the tiger's mouth, right?"

"..."

In the woman's silence, the Taoist continued:

"It seems to be a reward from the emperor, but in fact, given the current situation in Pegasus City, she is a proton when she comes here. Let alone whether she will go to the south of the Yangtze River with... His Majesty, but even if she stays in the capital, she will You can’t be free either. That night, when you, I, and the servant lord had dinner together, you made a choice. After you made your choice, have you ever thought about today’s result?”

Perhaps it was because of the accusation in the Taoist mouth, or the slightest bit of dissatisfaction.

For no reason, Hongying's heart relaxed.

In the final analysis...although...Sun Bofu and Daoist...

But after all, the Taoist priest doesn't...hate the eldest lady.

So she nodded:
"I thought about it."

"...Really think about it?"

Li Zhen was taken aback.

The glamorous woman on the opposite side nodded again;
"Not only did I think about it, but after that day... after the Minister and I personally confirmed the fact that the Taoist leader cannot be involved, the Minister ordered me to send a letter to Pegasus City. The specific content... I don't know. I know, but I saw Missy's reply. At that time, Missy said that she would come to Luoyang this year. She must have discussed something with Mr. Shi Lang...but I don't know."

"..."

Now it was Li Zhen's turn to be surprised.

But after thinking about it carefully, it's normal.

In front of me, Mr. Jingchan is Mr. Jingchan.

But that night, when the Pegasus Sect closed its tentacles, Bao Dashe's small actions had already proved that this Mr. Jing Chan was still the eldest lady of a powerful family after shedding this layer of identity.

The division of many interests is engraved in the bones.

He took a sip of tea silently, and he let out a long sigh of relief.

With an illusion of being in a trance because of a sudden change in his friend, he nodded slightly to Hongying:

"Well, since I'm not allowed to get involved in your affairs, I'm sure I won't get involved."

"..."

As soon as these words were finished, the slight redness on Hongying's face was replaced by the speechlessness in her eyes.

"Master."

She opened her mouth and said:
"This time, I can't repay the kindness of Daoist in Pegasus City. But what you said just now... Are you sure what you said is appropriate?"

"..."

Looking at the suddenly embarrassed Taoist, the speechlessness turned into an irrepressible smile.

There is joy in the smile, there is the apprehension of letting go, and there is something...inexplicable.

The woman's face turned slightly red again.

She quickly took a deep breath, thought for a while, and asked:
"The priest hasn't answered me yet, where is he going?"

"Uh……"

Speaking of this, Li Zhen will not hide it now:
"I've been in Xiangshan these few days."

"Ah."

"On the eve of the eve of the year, you heard about that cunning demon, right?"

"Ah."

The woman responded again:
"The monster died very strangely. It was an ordinary monster. First of all, it was not right to appear near Luoshui. The second thing is... Although I didn't see what happened at that time, when Mr. Shi Lang came back that night, it was not right. Tell me. That monster... polluted the dragon's veins, right?"

"Yes. But don't ask me how it's dirty, I don't know."

After shaking his head to express his confusion, he pointed in the direction of Xiangshan:

"The teacher issued an order to purify the dragon's veins. But the road... seems to take a long time. His Majesty refused, and directly asked the civilian husband to clear the silt...Because the river is too cold, the teacher couldn't bear it, so he planned to take me out together, for Those civilian husbands escorted them. But it must be said that they are going to travel in the clouds, otherwise it would be inappropriate to get involved rashly."

"... Daoist Su Ning is benevolent."

After paying her respects, Hongying asked:

"How long?"

"Your Majesty will definitely be able to come back before His Majesty Jiangnan. I guess... a month or two, that's all."

"... Li Shilang should also come back at that time."

"That night...was he okay?"

"...No, she has."

"Ok?"

Looking at the stunned Taoist, Hongying frowned slightly:

"Baiqisi, as His Majesty's inspection of the world, she should not hide anything from her. But that night, this monster appeared very strangely, and it was obvious that someone deliberately did it. However... the servant was negligent. After His Majesty was furious, he went straight back to the palace... I was still in a coma at the time, but it was only later that I learned that... the Minister of the Palace knelt at the gate of the palace for a whole night before he was summoned into the palace."

"..."

"I stayed in the palace for less than half an hour. After I came out, I came directly to this precious beast pen. It was Elder Sun Zhenglin who received her... There is no way, all of us are being treated by doctors, and Elder Sun's injuries are relatively minor. .Your servant is very angry..."

Speaking of this, she paused.

But there was something... a strange look in his eyes.

Can't see what emotion it is.

He stared straight at the Taoist in front of him:
"Even smashed two vases..."

"Tsk tsk."

Hearing this, the Taoist was somewhat moved:

"If it were me, I would have to get angry too. The New Year's Eve will cause trouble for others, and I will take the blame... This demon will not show up sooner or later, but it suddenly appears on such an important occasion. This is so unlucky, and I don't know who did it. Harmful, colluding with the demon clan..."

Suddenly, he was taken aback.

New Year's Eve?

Ominous?
Demon clan?

In an instant, these key factors in my mind were inexplicably linked together...

Demon clan?

Yaozu...?
Yaozu...? ? ? ? ?
Instinctively, he looked towards the east wall of his house...

And when he was staring straight at the wall, Hongying was actually quite speechless.

She didn't say a word.

When the servant came, his first move was to "blow up" two vases in front of Elder Sun.

Whether it's Liwei or a warning...

After showing her attitude, her first sentence was:

"You guys are so brave! How dare you involve that Taoist!"

The next thing to do was to scold Elder Sun.

Many words, Elder Sun did not say.

It is disgraceful for an old man in his 50s to be scolded.

However, after the incident, Elder Sun also said it in his words.

"Li Shilang's words were half about Shouchu Daoist, and half about chasing and killing the Strategists. As for the matter of Feima City winning the championship that night, he didn't mention much about it. He just drafted a letter and asked me to send it back to Feima City." Horse City."

In other words, what annoyed her was not Pegasus City...but because... Daoist Priest Shouchu suddenly got involved without her consent.

In the end, Lord Shi Lang warned Elder Sun:
"After this time, Pegasus City has nothing to do with Li Shouchu! Otherwise, you will be at your own risk!"

In fairness, she is now violating the order of the minister.

But Hongying didn't think there was anything wrong.

She... has her persistence.

And she insisted on only one thing.

Seeing with my own eyes... the other party is fine, that's fine.

As for what kind of punishment he will receive after the lord servant comes back... that has nothing to do with the lord servant.

It's Missy's business.

Now as long as he sees that he is fine, it will be fine.

So, looking at the Taoist who was in a daze for some reason in front of her, although she had a lot to say in her heart.

But when she saw his frown getting tighter and tighter... Suddenly, Hongying felt that it was not important.

"You... don't think too much about it."

In a word, Li Zhen's attention was drawn back.

"When Mr. Shi Lang was leaving, he had already ordered me to wait in the beast pen to wait for the eldest lady to enter Beijing. And she also left Luoyang on the first day of the new year, probably to track down the clues of the monster clan..."

"……Ah."

Although she didn't know why the person shook her head and laughed, Hongying still said:

"Are you leaving after a while?"

"Well. Gao Gong said that the people in the city have not left. Before the dredging starts, it is best not to show my face in the city. So today I will pack up my things and leave the city later, waiting for Gao Gong to come out of the palace. After returning, we will stay in Xiangshan for a while."

Hearing this, Hongying thought for a while, then nodded:
"It's indeed the best way. Now...the Mohists are already the guests of Yue Wangfu. His Majesty has allocated a piece of land for them in the west of Beijing. I don't know what they are building. But I think it has something to do with mechanism skills..."

"I won't talk about these things. It's too noisy~"

Hongying paused for a moment... Seeing the Taoist priest waving her hands, she nodded:

"it is good."

"Um... that's right."

"how?"

"You still remember the two brothers from the Yan family?"

"Hmm. What?"

"……Just a sec."

The Taoist stood up suddenly and walked towards the back of the house.

Hongying didn't care too much, but her eyes fell on the bag that the Taoist put on the stool.

After thinking about it, she took out a jade pendant from her waist.

The jade pendant was dark red in color, like a flame.

A handsome galloping Pegasus is engraved on the front, and the character "Huai" is engraved in seal script on the back.

This is the proof of the identity of the direct disciple of the Huai family of Chixuegu.

In fact, she also carried a jade pendant representing the identity of the eldest lady.

but……

As the Servant Lord said:

"You Pegasus City, you don't think that you have caused him enough damage!?"

Yes.

It's been...enough.

Pegasus City...

Pegasus sect...

Hongying felt that...a jade pendant representing the eldest lady was not as good as her own jade pendant, which was passed down to her disciple.

At least... there is a layer in between.

His involvement with the Pegasus Sect... is less.

Thinking of this, her eyes became firm.

Quickly stuffing the jade pendant into the bag, and carefully restoring the folds that she had pressed, like a thief, the woman held the teacup to hide the unreasonable panic in her heart, and quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

After a while, the Taoist left and returned with a note in his hand:
"This note, please help me give it to the two brothers of the Yan family, and ask them to bring it to brother Shubao."

"Qin Shubao?"

Hongying was stunned for a moment, seeing that there was no wax seal, only the note folded in half... and then took a tentative look at the Taoist.

Then, under the indifferent shrug of the Taoist, she opened the note.

There are a few words on it.

"Follow the trend and be safe with the situation."
