Prince Tai sat at the dining table, surrounded by more than a dozen servants with their heads lowered, serving him.
After picking up a bone china jade bowl, taking two mouthfuls of porridge and a bite of side dishes, Prince Tai put the bowl on the table.
The servant on one side hurriedly went to the floor to rinse his mouth, and the other servant hurriedly took the tea bowl and knelt on the ground to wait.
After spitting the mouthwash into the tea bowl, another servant handed him a handkerchief.
Prince Tai picked up the handkerchief, wiped his mouth, and then stood up slowly.[
As soon as he went out, he saw Duan Yunli standing outside the door. Behind Duan Yunli were the family members of Prince Tai.
Today, Prince Tai is going on a long trip, so naturally they have to see him off.
At this moment, the steward of the palace came up and put a cloak on Prince Tai, and Prince Tai walked towards the gate of the palace.
A group of people hurriedly followed behind him.
"Yunli, while I'm out, you should review your lessons at home. Don't go out and hang out with those dandies. Today's Longdu is not what it used to be. You should pay more attention to yourself."
Prince Tai stood outside the gate of the palace and warned.
Duan Yunli nodded hurriedly and said: "Grandpa, don't worry, my grandson will remember it."
"Just remember, remember to stay far away from Prince Weiyuan. We cannot interfere in the Onmyoji Association's case."
After saying this, the prince came to his side and continued in a low voice: "It's not that grandpa is trying to scare you. If you get involved in this matter, you will be shattered to pieces."
Duan Yunli couldn't help but be startled. Prince Tai was a strict man and never said such big words. If he said such big words this time, it must be something serious.
"My grandson will remember it."
"Well, then I can feel relieved."
After saying this, he turned around and said: "The autumn is high and the dew is heavy, so you don't need to see me off. You can say goodbye here."
At that moment, Prince Tai's family members all kowtowed and saluted.
At this moment, there was already a motorcade waiting outside the door. After Prince Tai got on the carriage, the carriage left the palace.
His family members waited until Prince Tai disappeared at the entrance of the alley, and then they all got up and walked towards the palace.
Prince Tai was riding in a carriage, sitting in the carriage like an old monk sitting still, closing his eyes and meditating.
Every year during the flood season, he would personally go on patrol.
Although he is an iron hat king, you know in your heart that compared to the remaining princes with outstanding military exploits, his strength is too weak.[
Today, this honor was earned with the blood and sweat of his ancestors. As a descendant, he is responsible for passing on this honor.
The carriage was shaking as it left the imperial city. As soon as it reached the inner city, the carriage stopped.
There was a lot of noise outside and I didn't know what was going on.
At this moment, the carriage began to turn around, obviously heading towards another road.
There was a mixture of fish and dragons in the inner lining. He had stayed in Longdu all his life and had seen all kinds of situations. He knew that something must have happened in front of him and blocked the road.
However, before walking for a quarter of an hour, the carriage stopped again.
"Fu'an, what happened?"
Prince Tai asked curiously.
"Back to my lord, this road is under martial law. Should we change to another road?"
The servant hurriedly reported back.
"That's fine."
Prince Tai couldn't help but frowned. Why was there so much trouble everywhere in the inner city so early in the morning?
At this moment, his left eyelid couldn't help but twitch. Prince Tai rubbed his eyes with a hint of impatience on his face.
When we arrived at the gate of the inner city, we heard some officers and soldiers shouting at the gate: "Stop all vehicles coming and going for routine inspection."
At that moment, the carriage stopped again.
It's probably because something happened last night. There was unrest in Longdu City early in the morning.
Prince Tai opened the car impatiently and saw dozens of carriages parked in front of him.
The officers and soldiers guarding the city are checking one by one.
Looking at the progress, I am afraid it will be delayed for a while, which makes Prince Tai feel unhappy.
At this moment, someone outside the carriage suddenly said: "Is that Prince Tai in the carriage?"
The sound sounded familiar to Prince Tai, so he opened the car and saw Liu Xia standing outside with a smile on his face.
"Oh? It turns out to be Prince Weiyuan."[
At that moment, the carriage door opened and Prince Tai walked out of the carriage.
"My lord, are you leaving the city?"
Liu Xia said with a pleasant smile.
"Uh, isn't this the autumn flood season? I was ordered to go to the south of the Yangtze River for inspection. Is the prince here like this?"
Prince Tai asked curiously.
"It's nothing. I was going to check something out in the outer city. But I got stuck here."
Liu Xia smiled.
"What happened?"
Prince Tai looked at the officers and soldiers conducting investigations in the distance, and they seemed to be very serious. Looking at this battle, he was afraid that it was not an ordinary thing.
"I don't know either. I was stuck in traffic several times along the way. By the way, what does the prince think of the Duke?"
Liu Xia was mid-sentence when the conversation suddenly changed and he asked abruptly.
"The Duke of the country? The Duke of the country?"
"That's the Commander-in-Chief of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Tuoba Lingyun."
Liu Xia smiled.
"Well, as far as I know, the Duke of Guo is an upright man, acts vigorously and resolutely, and is deeply favored by the emperor. Unfortunately, I am busy with official duties and don't know him well. Why did Prince Weiyuan suddenly ask?"
Prince Tai asked curiously.
"Just asking."
Liu Xia, you said with a faint smile.
Afterwards, Liu Xia kept chatting with him, and the carriages in front and behind moved slowly. It took a long time to reach the city gate.
After showing the tokens, the officers and soldiers let him go one after another.
After leaving the city gate, Liu Xia's carriage and Prince Tai's carriage parted ways.
On Liu Xia's carriage, Cai Wei was naturally present. After they were far away, Liu Xia hurriedly asked: "Did you find anything?"
"There are a lot of them, please let me sort them out a little bit."
Caiwei looked very excited, obviously she had made a major discovery.
After a while, Caiwei said, "I'm afraid things are more troublesome than you think."
"What's the trouble?"
Liu Xia asked.
"The prince did deliver a batch of silver to his fief, but when something happened to the Onmyoji Association, Tuoba Lingyun went to Prince Tai and asked Prince Tai to set up a blockade on the canal, saying that an important criminal had escaped from the canal. So.
Prince Tai then set up a trap to help Tuoba Lingyun capture the key criminal. Prince Tai suspected that Tuoba Lingyun had another agenda by setting up a trap. This is the first."
"Second, the prisoners we captured and the corpses of the enemies who ambushed us were on their way back by water. The prince once directly hinted to Prince Tai to ask him to burn those ships and destroy the corpses. However, Prince Tai had not yet had time to do it.
Something happened to those ships. Prince Tai suspected that it was Tuoba Lingyun who did it."
"The time is too short, there's only so much I can analyze."
Caiwei said.
Liu Xia nodded. This kind of mind reading is not just like a roundworm in your stomach. It can know everything.
How much he reads depends on how much information he has about the matter in his heart.
Just now Liu Xia specifically mentioned Tuoba Lingyun. At that time, the only things that appeared in Prince Tai's mind were these two things.
However, this is enough.
When the matter reached this stage, Liu Xia also breathed a sigh of relief. This matter had little to do with Prince Tai.
He was just following orders.
However, Liu Xia couldn't help but wonder why the prince burned those ships full of corpses.
The prince said that the money was not his, so why was he so worried?
And also destroy the corpses and eliminate all traces?
However, it seems to be analyzed from this that Tuoba Lingyun and the prince should not be in the same group.
Otherwise, you can just give the order to Tuoba Lingyun directly. Why should you give the order to Prince Tai?
It is obviously illogical to do something unnecessary and to have one more informed person.
Prince Tai suspected that the Onmyoji Association was related to Tuoba Lingyun, which actually helped Liu Xia a lot.
"Brother, are these helpful to you?"
Caiwei asked curiously.
Liu Xia nodded and glanced at Caiwei, thinking that this girl was acting weird today.
When he was talking, his eyes were wandering and he didn't dare to look at him. Furthermore, he was sitting there alone, his face turning red and white.
"Junior sister, are you worried?"
Liu Xia suddenly asked.
"No...no."
Caiwei said with a little panic.
"Really? Why doesn't it look like me? You talk to your senior brother, he will definitely help you."
Liu Xia smiled.
Caiwei hurriedly shook her head and said, "It's okay. It's just that I practiced too late last night and I'm not energetic."
Liu Xia saw her tactful words, so she didn't hesitate to ask more questions, so she looked outside the car to pass the time.
Caiwei, on the other hand, glared at Liu Xia angrily.
The scene that night was indeed a bit too hot for a little girl like Cai Wei.
For two days in a row, whenever I closed my eyes, I thought of the naked and passionate scene between him and Yao Wenxin on the bed.
Although I only took a glance at it, it lingered in my mind.
Especially today, Liu Xia was sitting next to him. Seeing him made the little girl think of that scene even more. The girl was naturally a little embarrassed.
"When did you get along with Sister Wenxin?"
After a moment of silence, Caiwei, as a woman, couldn't help but ask with the gossip in her heart.
"Uh, what did Wen Xin tell you?"
Liu Xia was stunned and asked. This matter has not been announced to the public yet, but Caiwei already knew about it.
But Liu Xia thought again, it should be Dabao's big mouth who said it.
"Sister Wenxin didn't say anything, but I live next to Sister Wenxin."
The more Caiwei spoke, the softer her voice became, and her face turned red.
Liu Xia couldn't help but feel embarrassed when she thought about what happened that night.
"I originally planned to tell you in a few days. Now that you all know it, I don't have to hide it from you. In fact, I have always liked your sister Wenxin, but that night, I couldn't control it because of the fierce fire."
"shameless."
Caiwei said disdainfully.
"What does it mean to be shameless? After all, your senior brother is also a hot-blooded man. A stunning beauty like Youwenxin is always by his side. If I can't bear it, then isn't there something wrong with me?"
Liu Xia retorted.
"Stop talking about these fallacies. Brother, she is a celestial demon. A celestial demon! Now she just lost her memory. If one day, after she regains her memory, she thinks of the things you did to her, aren't you afraid of being doomed?
?”
Caiwei asked worriedly.
"What is the matter between you and me? What is there to worry about? If one day, she regains her memory and wants to kill me for this, I will regret it. As the saying goes, if you die under a pomegranate skirt, is it cool to be a ghost?"
Liu Xia leaned against the car and said nonchalantly.
"Slut, I think you have the same virtues as that lewd monk."
"Tch, little girl, you don't understand anything. Do you know the true nature of a man?"
At this time, the carriage passed by a large pit and shook violently.
Both Caiwei and Liu Xia were caught off guard. In the panic, Caiwei bumped towards Liu Xia, and accidentally kissed Liu Xia's cheek with her lips. Liu Xia instinctively scratched in order to maintain the balance of her body.
But he touched Caiwei's breast.
In an instant, a scream came out of the carriage, making this peaceful morning no longer peaceful.
