Martial arts immortality, I will eventually be invincible

With the first batch of summer grain entering the warehouse, grain prices have dropped slightly, but have not dropped to the same level as last year. For ordinary people, the price is still high.

Especially this year, the capital city encountered war and wages were reduced. Every rise and fall in grain prices has affected the nerves of countless people.

The business of the street buns shop has been much worse, and the business of the noodle soup shop is obviously depressed. The business of the braised pork stall, which Chen Guanlou loves the most, is also a bit half-dead.

Whether life is good or bad, the market business reacts accurately and quickly.

He was in the prison, and his income was basically unaffected, and even increased a lot. As more and more officials were imprisoned, his purse was visibly bulging.

He bought a few meat buns, carried a pound of braised meat, and a pot of wine back home. He cut half a pound and sent it to Chunxiang's wife. Chunxiang's wife refused to accept it, so Chen Guanlou suggested that she make noodle dumpling soup for a few days. He likes to eat the noodle dumpling soup made by Chunxiang's wife. No other family can make that taste, and it always feels a little worse.

Sister Chunxiang nodded in agreement, considering that she had several children at home and had not eaten meat for a long time.

Chen Guanlou left Sister Chunxiang's house leisurely, and then saw a simple carriage parked at the door of her house, clearly waiting for him.

He walked forward and knocked on the carriage.

Then, the carriage door opened from the inside, revealing Liu's beautiful face, still gentle and tender, with affectionate eyes.

Liu was originally a maid in the East Palace, then the widow of Li Dahong, and now the concubine of His Royal Highness Zhong Wang.

Chen Guanlou invited people into the house, glanced at the beautiful maid next to Liu, and put a cup of tea next to her, "How did you get out? At this time, can you walk around?"

Liu went out with only a maid and a coachman. The coachman was guarding the carriage outside the door, and she was only taken care of by a maid.

Liu is now a concubine with a status next to Zhong Wang. Since she had a child, her situation has improved a lot. Logically speaking, as a female member of the inner court of Prince Zhong's mansion, she should not have the opportunity to go out alone in the current situation.

Liu looked a little miserable, "Since His Highness was deposed, everyone has been sad all day long. Later, when we moved to the palace, the princess fell ill again and didn't manage things much. The backyard was not managed strictly, so I made an excuse to go out to burn incense and pray for blessings, and His Highness nodded, so I came out. After I came out, I was not in a hurry to go back. Thinking that I haven't seen you for a long time, I came here to try my luck while it was still early. I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence that I met you."

"Have some tea!" Chen Guanlou tapped the table, "Is everything in the palace okay these days?"

"Not very good." Liu held the teacup, tears had already begun to roll in her eyes, "Your Highness is worried He was depressed, lost a lot of weight, and became irritable. However, His Highness was still very good-tempered in front of his subordinates. Everyone was in a low mood and was very scared, fearing that one day the Jinyiwei would suddenly come to the door and everyone would die. "

"You are too worried. At present, there is no sign that His Majesty has taken the life of His Highness Zhongwang. "

"But everyone says that since ancient times, no deposed prince has had a good end. Sooner or later, we will die, we will all die, and even the children will not be saved. Cut the grass to the root, even if His Majesty does not settle the accounts, the new emperor will settle the accounts after he ascends the throne. "

Liu looked terrified and trembling all over. The maid beside her was as scared as her.

"No." Chen Guanlou's comfort was pale and powerless, because he could not find a strong evidence to convince Liu. Since ancient times, deposed princes have not had a good end. This is a hard truth, and there are basically no exceptions.

"You don't need to comfort me. I'm not afraid of death. But the child is still so young. How can I watch him being killed by them... Can you help me?"

"How can I help you? Everyone in Prince Zhong's mansion, including the maids, is registered. Missing one person is a big deal, not to mention the prince of the mansion."

"Then what should I do? Can I just wait to die with the child?" Liu sobbed silently, and the maid cried with her. "My family is gone. I have been working in the East Palace since I was a child. I have been living in seclusion for two years after marrying Li Dahong. I don't know anyone. Except you, I really can't find anyone to help."

Liu talked about her situation, helpless and weak. Chen Guanlou sighed secretly, "The situation may not be as bad as you think."

Liu said weakly: "But, since ancient times, there has been no exception for the deposed prince. It is impossible for him to live. Death is a matter of time."

"We don't care about the situation of His Royal Highness Zhongwang, but child, they won't do that."

"I really hope that they are not so cruel as you said, and they should leave a trace of blood for His Royal Highness. But, what if it happens?" Liu stared at Chen Guanlou with a pair of tearful eyes. Those eyes seemed to be able to speak, begging desperately, and a weak face made people feel pity.

Chen Guanlou hardened his heart and said, "I'm just a jailer."

"I know that all this is too difficult for you. I just can't find another person, so I can only beg you shamelessly. It's me who shouldn't, I shouldn't embarrass you with life-threatening things."

Liu wiped her tears quickly, trying hard to cheer up, her expression was both sad and pretending to be strong.

Chen Guanlou almost couldn't restrain himself and was about to embrace the other person. Fortunately, he still remembered that Liu was the woman of Prince Zhong. Prince Zhong was the focus of the capital at the moment.

Liu might have been targeted when she went out.

"Your Highness has taken a fancy to Bilu." Liu pulled the maid next to her and said, "Chen, I will give Bilu to you, okay?"

Huh?

This turn was unexpected.

The maid Bi Lu suddenly knelt down and said, "Master, don't drive me away. I'm not going anywhere. I just want to serve my master."

"But His Highness has fallen in love with you, how could I let him go?" Madam Liu cried.

"Slave, slave..." Bilu was so flustered that she spoke incoherently.

"I refuse." As the person involved, Chen Guanlou did not remain silent, but expressed his attitude directly, "Miss Bilu is obviously willing to serve His Highness Prince Zhong, so why do you have to force her to follow me. What good do I have here? He has neither good clothes nor good status, and is just a stinky jailer who is disliked by others."

It was obvious that Green wanted to climb a high branch. Even though King Zhong was a defeated phoenix, in Green's eyes he was still a tall branch with lush branches.

Chen Guanlou has no hobby of being a receiver.

"Really?" Mrs. Liu looked at Bilu with a painful expression, "Are you really willing to serve His Highness?"

Green is silent. Yet silence is affirmation.

Mrs. Liu was a little annoyed, a little angry, and angry that she didn't see through the thoughts of her personal maid.

"You are so stupid!" She continued to say to Bilu, "Prince Zhong's Mansion is already a broken ship that is about to sink. If a big wave hits at any time, everyone on the ship will die. I arranged for you to leave the mansion because I wanted you to serve me. I tried my best to save your life, but I didn’t expect that you wouldn’t appreciate it.”

"Master, I am not ungrateful. I know you are good to me, but if you are no longer here, can I live alone?"
