Chapter 88

Although my mother still has some opinions on this, she said that it would be nice to have several handsome sons-in-law in the family at once, but she was afraid that I would not be able to resist, so she rambled on for a while, but then she turned her head and thought that I should be able to subdue him now Stop, the corners of the mouth suddenly curled up evilly, hugged me a few times with the matchmaker, told me to stay away from Xiao Wuxia, and then let me do what I wanted to do.

As soon as I walked out of the house, the matchmaker chased after me and stuffed something into my hand.

"This is?"

"Praying for many children." She pointed to the awkwardly sewn amulet and said, "I thought I would never use it again, but I didn't expect to have a chance to give this to the young lady. I don't have many wishes for the matchmaker, I just ask for the first A child must belong to Luo Langjun, miss, come on."

I gave her a polite but awkward smile.

When I arrived at the Dongshi Archway, Xiao Shunzi was already leaning against the wall and staring at the sky boredly. As soon as he saw me, he straightened up and waved to me, shouting: "Miss Yingying, Xiao Shunzi is here!"

"I see, I see." I approached him, "Have you finished your business with Dr. Qin?"

He nodded and said: "When I finished speaking, the master sprayed me with tea. The old man was quite frightened. He originally planned to sneak into the palace to find the head of Xiao, but his identity is special. If he is discovered by the guards There are countless troubles, so let Xiao Shunzi accompany the lady to see everyone before making any plans."

"Didn't Doctor Qin come from Guanyilou, so he is afraid of being discovered because of his skill?"

"My lady, I'm always afraid that something might happen, not to mention that my master is not young anymore, especially when the rainy season comes, his knees will hurt a little. It's a fault that he used to kneel down when he was a father-in-law."

I nodded, and it seemed that Master had to look for it at last.

"Xiao Shunzi, do you think you know where the second senior brother is now?" I asked.

Xiao Shunzi smiled triumphantly, and pointed to the Xiguo Temple in the distance, "Xiao Shunzi, I found out that Bai Lang was performing at the Xiguo Temple Theater today, Miss Yingying, you are so lucky, Bai Lang has not seen you for a long time. For the show, he had to appear today because Princess Changning personally nominated him."

"Princess Changning?"

In my impression, Liu Changshi seemed to have joked that the second senior brother was Princess Changning's male favorite, and he had heard the name of the princess to some extent, but he didn't know who the princess was.

"Miss Yingying, do you want to know about Princess Changning?" He lit up his eyes, as if expecting someone to ask him.

"If you want to say"

"Hey, speaking of Princess Changning." Xiao Shunzi interrupted me and said by herself, "That's the jewel in the palm of the Empress Dowager, the lord's sister, although she is beautiful, she is extremely arrogant and domineering, and she is the most well-known The most important thing is her male favorite who has been around the imperial city for three times, and even the monks of Buddhist temples have had fun with her, Amitabha, singing every night, that is!" He continued: "And Bai Lang has always been her... One of his prey is that Bai Lang entered the Mingjingmen early and learned swordsmanship. Not to mention, under the intervention of King Xiang, that is, the head of Xiao, Princess Changning is not easy to attack, but now the Mingjingmen is gone. Now, Princess Changning tried her best to accept Bai Lang as one of her male favourites, why don't you act now?"

I was taken aback, this Princess Changning is really strong, she has enough energy to go around the imperial city three times, so how much energy will it take to be pampered completely?It can be called a heroine among women.

"Miss Yingying, Miss Yingying, why do you look so admired?" Xiao Shunzi shook my arm, "By the way, Xiao Shunzi saw that the lady has a good eye, so he secretly told the lady a secret. This is my exclusive news, even the master doesn't know about it." He looked around and whispered in my ear: "I believe my lady already knows about Bai Lang's loss of two senses, and maybe she also knows the reason, but my lady Do you know who buried the needle?"

"Second brother said it was done by two drunken alcoholics?"

"Right or wrong, the drinkers are real, but those two drinkers are Princess Changning's male favourites. The purpose of inserting needles is to tame Bai Lang, who has a strong personality. It's just that he may not have thought that Bai Lang didn't immediately find a doctor to pull him out." It was only because of this that the life-threatening situation today was caused.”

"What!?" I looked at Xiao Shunzi angrily, "Second senior brother was only eleven or twelve years old at that time, what did Changning think of human life!"

The people around heard this and looked in my direction.

"Hey! Miss Yingying!" Xiao Shunzi covered my mouth, "Calm down, don't shout loudly in the imperial city, if Princess Changning finds out, something will happen if there is no headmaster Xiao to protect you !"

I grabbed him to cover my hand, poked his nose and said: "I just want to get rid of this bad habit. When my father was alive, what he said the most is to be clear in the heart and have a clear conscience. I insist on getting rid of this bad habit." Only a corrupt atmosphere can make you have a clear conscience, let’s go and help my brother.”

It didn't take long for the two of us to come to the theater next to the Xiguo Temple. I remembered that I had also come to this theater to get in touch with Cui Jinxuan. I didn't expect that almost a year had passed, and things changed, and only the seven kinds of precious jade remained. The stage and seats piled up are still the same as before, but my mood is completely different at this moment.

Xiao Shunzi and I huddled together among a group of audiences watching the song and dance performance, looked up at the second floor, this time we didn't see Cui Jinxuan's figure, but immediately caught a glimpse of the figure on the highest floor separated by a pearl curtain, surrounded by people outside the curtain There are countless maids, and besides the figure inside the curtain, there are several fair-looking and beautiful men serving her. I immediately knew that this was the Princess Changning.

"Miss Yingying, what are you going to do." Xiao Shunzi asked me in a low voice.

"I'm thinking about it, I'm thinking about it." I moved my mind quickly, glanced at Xiao Shunzi, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration, "Hey, I found that you seem to be quite good-looking."

"That's right, I'm not bragging. I used to be nicknamed Yushu Linfeng Xiaoshunzi. Among all the little eunuchs, I was born the most like Pan An." He said proudly, suddenly realized something, and tightened his skirt, " Wait a minute, Mrs. Yingying, first agree that I am barren, what do you want to do to me."

"Not only your lower body, but also your brain have been castrated? What are you thinking? I want you to distract Princess Changning. During this time, I will go to my second senior brother to discuss countermeasures."

"Oh, so that's it, okay, as I said before, poisoning, assassination, inquiring about news, carrying water, swinging on a swing, I can do everything, even attracting Princess Changning with beauty."

After he finished speaking, he bent over and pushed the crowd towards the upper floors. I thought for a while, the second senior brother was probably in the background, but I don't know if he still recognizes me now.

I wandered around, avoiding the eyes and ears of the actors and musicians, and finally found a place similar to the backstage, but except for the messy costumes, some props, rouge and gouache, I didn't see the figure of the second brother. Looking carefully, I found the wooden box that he would take whenever he went out from the corner. Now the wooden box is more worn than before, as if it has been used non-stop for a long time. I leaned against the wooden box and was When I wanted to see if the second senior brother was nearby, a sword was pressed against my neck. I subconsciously wanted to knock the hilt away, but the person who came was faster, and I pulled the sword back suddenly. A few sword moves were fired at my back.

The space here is so small that I have no place to dodge, so I had no choice but to draw my sword and turn around to face his sharpness. When the two swords collided, there were two "clang" and "clang" sounds, and the silver light floated, making me see clearly who the person opposite was. It's the second senior brother whom I haven't seen for a long time!

"Second division!"

Before I could finish my sentence, his sword was already on my throat again, with doubts in his eyes, and then he regained his composure, grabbed my shoulders and pushed me outside the door, "Guanyilou's disguise technique is really good. She has grown up, her eyebrows and eyes are indeed similar, but you have neglected two things, one is that she is extremely poor in martial arts, and she will never have such a good skill." He paused, and continued: "The second is that she is dead. , is no longer in this world."

I heard him say anxiously: "Wait a minute, I really"

"Don't tell me to get lost?" He looked at me with a gloomy face, "If you pretend to be my junior sister again, don't blame me for taking your life."

The second senior brother told me viciously, and I wanted to say a few more words of distinction, but at this moment I heard Xiao Shunzi's fierce cry for help, so I had to put aside the matter of the second senior brother and go to see Xiao Shunzi first. What's wrong.

I stepped on my toes, jumped up, and suddenly pulled away to the front of the stage. Unexpectedly, in a short time, Xiao Shunzi had been taken down, and two long guns were placed on his neck. Looking back and forth between me and the aloof Princess Changnyeong in misery, she kept calling my name with mouth movements for help.

"What's the matter, what's the matter, didn't you say that you poisoned, assassinated, inquired about the news, dived and jumped on the swing?" I responded to him with my lips.

"Miss Yingying, Xiao Shunzi found out today that I have something wrong with me!" He cried with a sad face, "Princess Changning said that I must be an assassin. People took me down."

I looked at Princess Changning, who was still sitting behind the bead curtain. She had already stretched out her hand, and it seemed that she wanted the guards to behead Xiao Shunzi on the spot. I sighed, knowing that I had to go all out, so I flew onto the stage , The sword slammed down the guard's long spear, and the people below all exclaimed when they saw this. Even Princess Changning's body froze, and the movements of her hands froze in the air.

"Presumptuous and presumptuous!" Princess Changning slapped the armrest heavily, stretched out her jade finger and pointed down at me, and said sharply, "Where did this wild girl come from? How dare you spoil my good deeds? Why don't you take her down?"

A few guards quickly approached me holding their weapons, and I immediately stretched out my hands, "Wait a minute! ————"

Everyone's eyes were wide open, unable to speak, it must have never occurred to me that I would be able to order the guards to stop in the face of such a surrounded situation.I thought to myself, I have experienced such occasions as the Huachao Banquet, how could such a strong wind and waves scare Yuan Yingying down?

"Princess Changning, before you chop off the melon and the little girl's head, the little girl has something to ask you."

"What? You damn girl, what do you want to ask me?"

"It's nothing, I just want to know that you have so many faces under your knees, and I really want to know how you maintain your physical strength, princess?" I said, "I think all the folks should also want to know."

When everyone heard the words, there was an uproar at first, and then they began to whisper, their eyebrows and eyes kept drifting in the direction of Princess Changning, and she was trembling all over, as if she was about to explode, pointing at me and saying, "You, you untouchable! What are you talking about without shame! Are you shameless?"

"Is it me who is really shameless, or is it you, Princess Changning?" I said while comforting Xiao Shunzi, who was already scared out of his wits, "Everyone present is a discerning person, and there is only such a melon seed beside me. Let me count, hey, there are only thirty or forty people traveling here, how many more are there in the palace? I believe that everyone is clear in their hearts, and they should have their own numbers."

Princess Changning stood up, opened the beaded curtain and stared at me. After a moment of silence, she said to the guards below: "Take off her veil, I want to see what kind of face this pariah looks like, dare to talk to me like this?"

"Don't bother, I'll take it myself," I said.

When I pulled up the veil, the princess stared at me with wide eyes, then closed her eyes and didn’t want to look at me anymore, other curious people came over one after another, but when they saw my face, they all had the same reaction—— Disgust, puzzlement, astonishment, and fear all took several steps back.

"It turns out that you have no shame at all. No wonder you dare to lose face like this." Princess Changning covered her mouth, and Emei frowned, "I really lost my appetite today. Come, I am going back to the palace. The untouchables were expelled from Chang'an, and I don't want to see this face again."

"Although my face has become like this, I have never regretted my choice."

I didn't know whether the last sentence was for the second senior brother who didn't know where, or for Princess Changning, or for myself. He walked out of the theater with his chest out of the open crowd.

When I got outside, I looked here and there to make sure no one was following me, and then I hurriedly took Xiao Shunzi to hide in the corner, "Damn it, I was scared to death! Princess Changning deserves to be the overlord of the female middle school, she just stands there imposingly It made me sweat coldly.”

"Ms. Yingying, Mrs. Yingying" he said, "Xiao Shunzi, Xiao Shunzi, thank you for saving your life! You have sacrificed so much for me, and Xiao Shunzi really has nothing to repay you. May"

"I don't need it if I promise it with my body, it will be useful next time." I replied, "But the second senior brother believes that I am dead, and he will cut me off without saying a word to him. We may have to start with another person." .”

Xiao Shunzi shook his head, thought for a while and said, "That is Chu Lang. Xiao Shunzi knows that he is in Yangzhou, and I happen to have a junior in Yangzhou. Let's find out with him when we get there."

"Is it reliable this time?"

"Reliable, absolutely reliable." He said, "Leave it to me, Xiao Shunzi will take you to Yangzhou to find Chu Lang!"

"You said the same thing in Longxiao Palace last time."

After we finished talking, we found a post station and prepared to go to Yangzhou. Perhaps it was because we wanted to find the third senior brother. I didn't realize that there was another person behind me until the carriage left Chang'an in the evening.
"Asura, go, follow that carriage."

The horse responded to him with a long howl, cut through the sky, and galloped with four hooves.
