Chapter 54 Intrigue(1/2)
The courtyard is built by the Sulan River, adjacent to the Sulan Bridge, and is also the most prosperous and lively place in the city. However, due to severe drought, the river water has dried up and no longer has the scenery of the past.
By the time Chu Wanqing and Li Qingfeng arrived, some servants had already started cleaning in advance, and there were many guards standing guard around them.
"Who asked you to come?"
"Back to the princess, the emperor is worried about your safety, so he sent us here."
Li Qingfeng smiled but said nothing. He said this beautifully. I wonder if he was really worried about the princess or had another purpose, such as... surveillance?
Chu Wanqing sent away the servants in the yard, but the guards refused to leave. Fortunately, they only dared to stand outside, and just set up a soundproof barrier when they talked to their senior brother.
As night falls, everything is silent.
Li Qingfeng casually searched for a room and began to calm down and meditate and practice. Of course, his spiritual consciousness was at a high level of vigilance at this time, and he would immediately notice it if there was any movement.
Outside the door, a figure touched the wooden railing.
"who!?"
Li Qingfeng suddenly opened his eyes.
"Senior brother, it's me..."
Chu Wanqing's voice was a little shy.
Li Qingfeng opened the door and saw Chu Wanqing standing timidly at the door, her head hanging slightly, biting her lips and not speaking.
"What's wrong with junior sister?"
Chu Wan pinched a few strands of hair and his eyes wandered, "......I want to discuss the information I have obtained today with my senior brother and formulate the action plan afterwards."
"Are you scared?"
"No, no!" Chu Wanqing immediately shook her eyes back and pretended to be firm.
Li Qingfeng smiled and said, "Junior sister, you have a habit of pinching your hair when you are nervous."
"Ah!" Chu Wanqing hurriedly let go.
"Okay, the beautiful woman disappeared bizarrely. This matter sounds quite strange. Come in." Li Qingfeng made a gesture of invitation, "It just so happens that I have something to ask my junior sister."
Chu Wanqing was still thinking that her senior brother was quite understanding, but when she heard it, she couldn't help but say angrily: "I want to ask me to protect the Dharma to see Xiaoyu again?"
"Uh, I have something important to ask her, it's not what you think."
"Ha, man!"
Li Qingfeng thought that he was indeed quite mean, and every time he asked his junior sister to protect the Dharma to see other girls, he couldn't help but blush and immediately found a question to fight back.
"What's wrong? Isn't it okay to protect your husband?"
As soon as he said this, Li Qingfeng immediately realized that it was wrong. He saw a coquettish look flashing in Chu Wanqing's watery eyes, and turned his head and turned his face red and did not speak.
"You, what did you do suddenly tease someone..."
On spring nights, the girl's voice is like a mosquito, as light as itchy in the heart.
Li Qingfeng was also embarrassed. He just wanted to tease his junior sister, so he used the matter in the court today to fight back. Unexpectedly, this sentence sounded so ambiguous... It was like a couple flirting.
Be careless!
He quickly waved his hand and explained: "I was joking. I was a joke. I made a mistake. Junior sister, don't take it seriously."
Chu Wanqing suddenly looked up, her face dissipated with shyness, and she hated Li Qingfeng, "I am protecting the Dharma outside the door, my senior brother will do it!"
Bah, I won’t admit it immediately after flirting, a scumbag!
【Chu Wanqing's favorability degree-5】
Li Qingfeng watched his junior sister slam the door after going out, and couldn't help but hold his forehead with his hands, but the woman's heart was still complicated.
Forget it, it should be almost the same time, so go and ask Xiaoyu's situation.
Astral Realm.
From a distance, Yu Ji waved his hand and shouted, "Brother Li! Here~"
Huh, Xiaoyu is still surfing the Internet. If she really comes out of the Dragon Palace, she shouldn't be able to surfing the Internet at any time. This means she is wrong in her guess? That's good.
After saying hello, Yu Ji hurriedly asked, "Brother Li, have you arrived in Su Lan City?"
"Yeah, it's here."
"Oh, that's good."
"Xiaoyu, what's the weather here in the Dragon Palace?"
"Well, it should be sunny..."
"should?"
The two of them tried each other, there was something in their words, and they were intrigue and played tricks...
After chatting for a while, Li Qingfeng could not confirm whether Xiaoyu was out of the Dragon Palace. He did not find decisive evidence and was a little worried.
Fortunately, when it comes to chat routines, Li Qingfeng’s death for many years was not in vain. He immediately said earnestly: “Xiaoyu, it’s not safe to use the Tongxing Stone alone.”
"It's okay, I have magic weapons to protect... Um!"
As soon as Yu Ji said something, he realized something was wrong and subconsciously covered his mouth with both hands.
Li Qingfeng:.........
You are really alone! You have magic weapons to protect you, right?
This little girl really ran out of the Dragon Palace and rushed over to see her!
It's broken.
If she heard rumors all over the city, she would not be sad to death if she found herself, the "mon-in-law", she would not be sad.
Yu Ji was also panicked and kept glancing at Li Qingfeng, thinking that Brother Li wouldn't have guessed that I had sneaked out, right? That's not possible. I'm going to give him a surprise.
"Xiaoyu, there are many interesting gadgets in the mortal world. My brother has bought some and sent them to you when the time comes."
"Of course, I will prepare for your birthday gift separately, so I will not be perfunctory."
"By the way, the handwritten version of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" is almost completed, and I will give it to you at that time."
Yu Ji's head tilted, and his little face was full of doubts.
What's going on?
Why did Brother Li suddenly treat me so well? This is not in line with his usual style.
She tilted her head and thought for a moment, narrowed her eyes slightly, and said calmly: "Brother Li."
"Um?"
"You wouldn't have done anything sorry for me, right?"
"Ah? I, how could I do something that I'm sorry for Xiaoyu? Ha, just kidding." Li Qingfeng's eyes wandered wildly.
Yu Ji wanted to catch Li Qingfeng's eyes, but he couldn't look at each other and said, "It's so suspicious..."
But forget it, we will meet soon, and we will make a decision at that time.
Li Qingfeng is not convenient for a long time. After all, his junior sister is still protecting the Dharma. You can't let the girl keep blowing the cool breeze at the outside door, right?
It is also inconvenient to stay for a long time when the rain clears. It consumes spiritual power to build a defensive formation by magic weapons, so it is too wasteful to use it for fun.
After saying goodbye, we took back our minds.
Nothing happened overnight.
The next day, the King of Chu did start to provide disaster relief as he said, and he used the name of Chu Wanqing. For a moment, Princess Xueyang's name resounded throughout Su Lan City.
Similarly, gossip about her is spreading rapidly.
"Do you know? I heard that the new princess has been missing for three years, and now she has suddenly found a princess to come back!"
"Yes, I heard that the princess is so beautiful, and that prince consort is also extremely handsome. I really want to meet her~"
"Yesterday I seemed to have seen such a handsome man and beautiful woman. She is actually Princess Xueyang?"
"The princess has a good life, I hope God bless her..."
Chu Wanqing was not happy because it was a treatment of symptoms but not the root cause. The drought was still there. There was also a bizarre disappearance hanging above her head, which was very depressed.
"Junior sister, you use your princess to collect information from the upper level, and I go to the lower level to inquire about ordinary people. Let's take action separately, isn't it?"
Li Qingfeng gave today's action plan. He is still very concerned about this matter and it would be better to solve it as soon as possible.
"no problem."
"Okay, let's go back to the courtyard around the hour of the lunar calendar to sort out the information together, let's go."
"Then... Brother, please remember to come back early."
"Although you're not afraid?"
"snort!"
The two of them had just left the courtyard and were stunned on the spot.
To be continued...
