Descendants of Pangu in the Great Desolation

Chapter 214 White Reed Lake

Three miles away from Yunchao's capital, there is a dense peach forest.Whenever the peach blossoms are in full bloom in early April, you can see this sea of ​​pink flowers from a distance, attracting swarms of butterflies and bees to come here.It's only the end of February now, not to mention the peach blossoms and even the leaves haven't grown half, but the peach forest at this time is not as quiet as before.

"Who am I? It's you! Meng Si'er, why don't you stay by Situ Rui's side forever? What are you doing in my Ping Palace?" I looked at the man in front of me and said disdainfully.Meng Si'er chuckled and said: "Why did I enter Prince Ping's mansion? I think His Royal Highness should have understood it long ago, so I don't need to say anything more." I took two steps forward and said coldly: " Didn't you break into the palace just to snatch Situ Rui's child? Let me tell you, the child died not long after Situ Rui left." Meng Si'er heard this and said angrily: "You nonsense, if the child died, the child Where did it come from?" I casually said: "The child in your hand is my adopted son, I picked it up from outside and brought it up." Meng Si'er shook his head and said, "I won't believe what you said." I Said: "The fact is what I said, whether you believe it or not has nothing to do with me." Meng Si'er said loudly: "If it is true as you said, why didn't I find Princess Rui in Prince Ping's residence just now? It is clearly you Hide his mother and son, I don’t want His Royal Highness Rui to find his mother and son.” I sneered and said: “Since you don’t believe what I said, then forget it. After the child died, Cousin Xin always missed him, I was in a trance all day long, and soon became seriously ill, so I went with that child." While talking, I wiped my reddish eyes with my hands.After hearing what I said, Meng Si'er became even more angry, and shouted loudly: "Since this is the case, don't blame me for being cruel. I will also let you taste the pain of separation." Rui Ye in her arms was about to fall to the ground.It happened so suddenly that it was too late for me to react.

"You dare!" Xiaoyou, who helped Xi'er to the side to heal her wounds, yelled loudly when she saw this, and hurriedly flew forward, and the moment Ruiye fell to the ground, she took her into her arms.Seeing that Rui Ye was safe and sound, my hanging heart was finally relieved.I stretched out my hand to summon the Bitan Sword, and stabbed at Meng Si'er angrily.At this moment, although Meng Si'er was stunned by the scene where Xiaoyou flew to rescue Ruiye just now, he was calm and experienced after all, and he reacted in time when the Bitan sword pierced the center of the mouth, leaning to the right, dodging After the fatal blow, only scratched the arm.Then Meng Si'er took out a silver pill and threw it on the ground.The silver pill exploded after colliding with the ground, and the surrounding area was immediately filled with thick fog.When the dense fog dissipated, Meng Si'er had long since disappeared, leaving only drops of blood.Seeing that he had escaped, I hurriedly came to Xiaoyou's side, took Ruiye and looked over carefully, seeing that he was not injured, I was completely at ease.

"Xi'er, are you okay?" I looked at Xi'er who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, and asked.Xi'er raised her head and said, "It's nothing serious. If I didn't pay attention just now, how could I have fallen for him." I said, "It's fine. But how did you meet him?" Xi'er explained : "After Xiaoyou and I had a breather, he said he was going to visit you, but I wanted to visit Ruiye, so I didn't go to Purple Bamboo Garden with him, but went to Bihai Pavilion. I just arrived at Bihai Pavilion , I saw Sister Wanxiang running out in a panic, so I wanted to stop her and ask what happened? At this moment, I suddenly saw a figure rushing out of Bihai Pavilion and outside the mansion. After thinking about it, I chased that figure out of the palace. Although I don't know who this person is, I believe that he is also a practitioner based on his aura, but I don't know how this person is, so I dare not act rashly, so I have to follow him to this place After listening to it, I nodded and said, "So that's what happened. If it wasn't for Xi'er, Rui Ye would have been captured by him this time. Thank you, Xi'er. Rui Ye is here, tell Uncle Xi'er Thank you." As I said that, I took Rui Ye's little hand to thank Xi'er.

"Okay, Brother Hai. Now that Rui Ye has been found, let's go back to the palace as soon as possible, so as not to worry the prince and concubine." At this moment, Xiaoyou interrupted.Hearing this, I hurriedly said: "That's true, Xiaoyou, hold on to Xi'er, let's go back to the house quickly." Then, I sacrificed the Bitan sword and jumped up lightly.Xiaoyou nodded, helped Xi'er to call out the wings behind her, and flew into the air together, and flew to the palace with me.After returning to the palace, the parents saw that Ruiye was safe and sound, and put down all the stones hanging from their hearts.

Just after the time of the next day, a strange man broke into the nine-door admiral's mansion in the capital.After the man showed a token to Wu Sang, Admiral of the Nine Gates, he left with most of the yamen servants in the Admiral's Mansion, and ran all the way to the south of the city.

"This is what happened, such a laborious effort has alarmed the Admiral's Mansion," a woman on the street murmured.At this time, a young and beautiful woman in plain clothes came behind the woman and said lightly: "I heard that the lady of Prince Rui who lived in Prince Ping's mansion and was demoted to a commoner went out to Fahua Temple in Nancheng this morning. On the way to incense, I accidentally fell into the Baiwei Lake in the southern suburbs, and this poor prince is taking the servants of the admiral's mansion to save people." The woman exclaimed: "Although the Baiwei Lake is not big, But it’s bottomless, and if this person falls into it, he won’t die.” The woman nodded and said, “Who says it’s not.” At this time, a young man came up behind the two of them, and said to them: "I heard that when Princess Rui fell into the water, she was still holding her youngest son who had just turned one year old in her arms. That's great, you lost two lives!" The woman said casually: "Zi Zi, what a pity!" As she was speaking, Not far away came a young woman with a bamboo basket in her hand. She came to the woman and asked, "Sister-in-law Zhang, what happened?" The woman in front heard the words and said, "Go shopping, sir Sister." The young lady nodded and said: "Yes." The woman leaned forward and said: "I heard that the wife of the demoted Prince Rui fell into Baiwei Lake, and the officials from the Nine Gates Admiral's Mansion are rushing to her Saving people." The young woman asked back: "Is it true?" The woman said: "I heard that the person who led the yamen servants to save people was Jing Shizi from Prince Ping's Mansion?" Then the woman turned her head to look Looking around, the two people who chatted with him before had disappeared.The woman asked suspiciously, "Huh? Where were those two people just now?" The young woman asked, "Who are they?" The woman said, "It's the two young men who stood beside me just now. Yes." The young woman said: "I didn't notice. But Mrs. Zhang, if Jing Shizi really brought someone there, I don't think there is a fake." The woman nodded and said, "I think so too." The two were guessing Then came two or three women holding bamboo baskets from behind, who seemed to be going shopping in the street together. "Sister-in-law Li, why don't you go shopping, what are you talking about here?" A woman in blue clothes asked.The young woman from before turned her head to look at the person coming and said, "Yes, sister-in-law of the Wang family. I just heard from sister-in-law Zhang..." Then she told the women what she had just heard.The woman in Tsing Yi asked: "Is this true?" Both women nodded and said, "It's almost the same." Immediately, the women started chatting.Within a quarter of an hour, everyone in the entire street knew about it, and an hour later almost half of the people in the capital knew about it.

How did they know that the two people who were chatting with Mrs. Zhang on the street just now were sent by me.At this time, the task was completed, and the two of them had already slipped away while they were not prepared.

"Master, Rucui and I have disclosed the news as you said." The two who were chatting with the woman on the street, Wu Zi and Rucui walked into the Bihai Pavilion one after the other, and met the person sitting at the stone table. I saluted slightly and said.I looked up at the two of them and said: "It's done well. Remember to try not to leave the house these few days to avoid being recognized. It's okay, you go down." The two saluted again, turned and left Bihai Pavilion.The two of them had just left and Xiaoyou, who was sitting next to me, asked, "Brother Hai, are these two reliable?" I nodded and said, "Don't worry. Both of them are orphans without father and mother. About Yu Nian. Although not as reliable as Lu Zi, but still loyal to the palace, I think there should be no problem." Xiaoyou nodded and said: "That's the best." I said slightly worried: "Look now Brother Jing's performance."

Baiwei Lake, five miles south of the city
"Search carefully for me!" Situ Jing loudly directed the servants to search for Yu Xin's whereabouts in Baiwei Lake. "Yes!" Qian Jin cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, rest assured, we will try our best to find the whereabouts of the princess. But this Baiwei Lake is so deep that it is very difficult to search for it." Situ Jing said angrily, "Stop talking nonsense. If you can’t find it, be careful with your heads!” Qian Jin heard the cold sweat on his forehead, and said tremblingly: “Little one, obey.” After he finished speaking, he turned around and said to everyone: “Brothers, you must search carefully. , can’t be negligent.” Then he joined the ranks of the crowd and searched carefully.

Three hours later, Qian Jin came to Situ Jing dejectedly, and said, "My lord, I have searched all over Baiwei Lake but still haven't found the whereabouts of the princess. Silk with peach blossoms at the bottom." Situ Jing heard the words and said hurriedly: "Bring the silk." Qian Jin hurriedly shouted behind him: "Xu Zi, bring that silk." A thin, dark young man After the man responded, he hurried over and handed the wet silk to Qian Jin.Qian Jin took the silk and handed it to Situ Jing and said, "Please take a look." Situ Jing took a look at the silk and exclaimed, "This is... this is cousin Xin's silk. Chief Qian, please take it with you." My son, go to the place where I picked up this silk." Qian Jin hurriedly said: "My lord, please come here." Then he took Situ Jing to walk not far away.Situ Jing looked at the ground and found that it was a tributary flowing westward. Although this tributary was not wide, the flow was very fast.After Situ Jing saw this, he quickly ordered: "Qian Butou, you take a few people to follow me to the tributary, and let the rest go back to rest. And ask Master Wu to send some more people to search nearby along the tributary, We must find out the whereabouts of the princess!" Qian Jin nodded and said, "Yes, my son." Then he turned and walked towards the crowd.After a while, Qian Jin brought five young people to Situ Jing's side.Seeing this, Situ Jing didn't say much, and led a few people along the tributary to look for it.And the rest of them went back to the capital according to what Qian Jin said.With the departure of the crowd, the Baiwei Lake, which was still noisy just now, returned to its previous calm.
