Datang: Starting from a fortune-telling stall, Wu Zetian was suddenly abducted

Chapter 88

At this moment, Yuan Shouwei had just sent away a fortune teller and was about to prepare lunch for Wu Fu.

It turns out that since he mastered cooking skills, Wu Yan has basically been his home—Taoist temple—the imperial palace, three points and one line, and under the guise of practicing martial arts, he cheated on Yuan Shouwei to eat and drink here.

Waiting to be deceived by Yuan Shou!

Yuan Shouwei looked at Wu Fu, who was as beautiful as a flower beside him, and sighed secretly:
"Are you teaching an apprentice? Are you recognizing an aunt?"

She keeps pestering her every day, and even cooks for her in different ways every day.

And the taste is becoming more and more tricky, and I especially like when it is fried, especially the hamburger I invented.

He stared at Hui Wulong's increasingly rounded chin, and said to himself, "No, I have to make you some fat-reducing meals."

Wu Fu was immediately curious, his big eyes flashed, and he asked curiously: "What is a fat-reducing meal?"

After Feng Yuan Shouwei explained to her, she curled her lips and said, "I don't eat that stuff, there's no oil or water. You make me burgers and French fries."

"No." Yuan Shouwei sternly refused.

Wu Fu looked at Yuan Shouwei's appearance, grabbed Yuan Shouwei's arm, and shook him back and forth: "Brother Yuan Shouwei, I beg you. Can I eat it for the last time today?"

"Tomorrow, starting from tomorrow, I will eat the fat-reducing meal you mentioned."

Yuan Shouwei felt the softness coming from his elbow, and felt a slight warmth in his heart. He immediately shouted unprincipled: "This is what you said. Today is the last time. Do you keep your words?"

Seeing that his coquettishness was successful, Wu Fu felt secretly proud and nodded like a chicken drumming, "Count it, count it. Go quickly."

After saying that, he pushed Yuan Shouwei, who was half pushing him, into the kitchen in the backyard.

Then he stood at the door of the kitchen, facing Yuan Shouwei's back, wrinkled his delicate nose, and stuck out his pink tongue, "Hey, hey, I don't believe I can't cure you."

While Yuan Shouwei was preparing the meal and the two of them were feasting, they suddenly heard a shrill scream coming from in front of the temple: "Fellow Taoist Wuwei, save me."

The two of them were shocked. Who is this? Why are they screaming so miserably?
He put down his bowls and chopsticks and walked to the front of the Taoist temple. At a glance, he saw a middle-aged man in a state of embarrassment.

The clothes are torn, the shoes are torn, the hairstyle is messy, and the expression is crying.

Isn't this the cowardly Zhongqing from that day?
Looking at his miserable look, could it be that something happened to Hou Junji?
Just when Yuan Shouwei thought of this, he saw Zhongqing running a few steps, then fell to his knees and slid directly to his feet, hugged his thigh, and said with tears in his eyes:
"Fellow Taoist, save me. The hexagrams you approved are correct. Now the soldiers in the entire Chang'an City are arresting me, saying that I incited Hou Junji to rebel."

Yuan Shouwei roughly understood what he meant, struggled to pull out his thigh and said, "Get up first and tell me how I can help you?"

Zhongqing continued to cry: "Please do some calculations for me and give me a clear path."

Yuan Shouwei was about to agree, but was stopped by Wu Yan next to her. She looked at her face frosty, and said with brows upside down:
"No, you are a fugitive. If Yuan Shouwei helps you, he will be an accomplice."

"Yuan Shouwei, what is his relationship with you?"

"If the relationship is average, we'll send him to the government."

Zhongqing was taken aback. He didn't expect Yuan Shouwei, a little girl who looked harmless to humans and animals, to be so decisive, and he didn't dare to cry anymore.

Sitting on the ground, he looked at Yuan Shouwei pitifully and said, "Fellow Taoist Wuwei, you can't be so heartless. For the sake of the Taoist sect, please help me."

After speaking, he turned back and knelt on the ground, kowtow like pounding garlic.

Yuan Shouwei looked at him and looked pitiful. He softened in his heart and said, "Stand up first and explain the situation clearly to me. I'll see if I can help you."

Zhongqing struggled to stand up and told Hou Junji and his situation.

So that was it, Yuan Shouwei smiled.

He looked at Wu Fu and said, "Do you think you want to help him?" Wu Fu also understood at this moment that Zhongqing was just greedy for the wealth and honor, and ended up in this situation. He did not really commit any serious crime of rebellion.

Then he said to Yuan Shouwei: "Yuan Shou is the elder brother in everything."

After Yuan Shouwei gave Wu Fu enough face, he turned to look at Zhongqing and said, "For the sake of being a Taoist disciple, I will help you this time."

"However, this is a trivial matter for you, so there is no need to calculate it."

"I'll write you a letter. You go to Prince Li Chengqian, and he will naturally pardon your crime."

Zhongqing didn't expect that Yuan Shouwei was still friends with the prince, and he knew that he really came to the right place this time, and thanked Yuan Shouwei again and again.

Yuan Shouwei asked Zhongqing to have a meal with him, and then wrote a letter to Wu Yan, asking her to go to the prince's mansion.

Wu Fu rolled his eyes at the wretched Zhongqing, originally not wanting to make this trip for him.

But after thinking about it, I went to ask the prince brother, if the situation of this wretched Taoist is really what he said, then help him.

If what he told Yuan Shouwei was a lie, then he would lead someone to arrest him directly so as not to involve Yuan Shouwei.

Thinking of this, he left gracefully in Zhongqing's grateful eyes.

Chang'an City, Prince's Mansion.

Li Chengqian is receiving a special guest: Hou Junji's first wife Ping Huixiu.

This lady is also a lady of the family. Since marrying Hou Junji, she has devoted herself to taking care of her husband and raising her children at home, and is extremely virtuous.

She saw Hou Junji's actions after returning from the war and warned her many times:
As a minister of your Majesty, if you are so proud of your merits, you will inevitably do something harmful to the country. It is better to listen to the advice of His Majesty and the Crown Prince.

Helpless, Hou Junji insisted on going his own way, and finally ended up like this.

At this time, the Hou Mansion was already completely surrounded by the Nanya Army, and no one was allowed to enter or leave.

Ping Huixiu had experienced many big scenes with Hou Junji, so she was relatively calm.

After she learned about Hou Junji's situation, she suppressed her sadness and cooperated with Nanya Army in all affairs in the house.

He also asked them to invite Guo Xiaoke, saying that he would go to the prince to intercede with Hou Junji.

With his own friendship on the line, Guo Xiaoke couldn't bear to see Hou Junqu end up like this.

Then she came to Li Chengqian with a few soldiers to protect her (called protection, but actually custody).

After listening to Ping Huixiu's story, Li Chengqian thought for a long time and said, "Aunt, do you know about my uncle's request for a seal?"

Ping Hui's beautiful face said sadly: "I dare not hide it from Your Highness."

"I know about this matter. I also checked with Zhen'er (Hou Junji's daughter, Helan Chushi's wife) again and again. This matter was all done by Helan Chushi alone."

"Junji really didn't know about it. The officers who were present that day can also attest to it."

After hearing this, Li Chengqian already had a suspicion in his mind. Ping Huixiu said that, just like the results of his own investigation, Hou Junji was indeed unjustly accused this time.

But other things Hou Junji committed: greed for money and property, and kidnapping the Queen of Gaochang. These things are not trivial, and any one of them will be beheaded.

Moreover, in Hou Junji's current state, he was really worried that something would happen to Hou Junji after he helped him.At that time, it will be really troublesome to involve yourself.
