Chapter 385: Cold Water in the Dark Spring (Part 1)
Su Jintian and Feng Junqing started fighting when they disagreed.
Of course, the Marquis of Nankang would not miss this opportunity. Killing Feng Junqing would be more beneficial to important matters.
Cao swam late at night, emerged from the hidden spring in Zhongshan Mountain, and wiped the water drops on his face toward the sunshine.
As soon as she climbed ashore, she saw her little grandson.
"Where?" Xiliu squinted her eyes and saw only patches of frosty pine forest in the mountains a mile or two away, with mountain birds flying in fright.
There were a lot of people, but I couldn't see clearly.
She smiled but said nothing.
Liu Ruhai knew that she must have put some kind of secret mark or medicinal powder on her little grandson.
I can grasp the location of my great-grandson from a long distance.
The little grandson had a jade flute tied to the sky with sky silk around his neck. His face was covered with a black turban, only his facial features were exposed. The jade flute was also covered by a small black brocade cloak.
He quietly put the jade flute to his mouth and blew hard.
There is no sound.
In the fighting place, many people looked at him. Among them was a beautiful sister with an angry face.
He did not recognize Luo Shengji, but when Luo Shengji glared at him, he was too frightened to move and hid quietly behind Nankang Marquis.
The experts heard it.
Yao Aiqing said that she could also hear it.
If Marquis Nankang gives him the flute and he plays it sixteen times in a row, she will come to pick him up.
"Why sixteen tones?"
"At your age, you will be out of breath after seventeen blows. You will faint."
"..."
Don't play the jade flute until the last moment and you haven't made up your mind. Taisun understands the meaning.
This is a magic flute.
Beside the hidden spring in the valley, there are dense pine shadows on all sides.
"Yu Ci, you hide here. If anything happens, run away. If nothing happens, just guard our dry food bags and clothes. I have to change when I come out." She took off the water and swam from the hidden spring in this deep winter weather.
After she came out, the water was a little frosty. She had to wipe it on.
The pine trees here were covered with brocades. Liu Ruhai also found another pine tree to change his clothes.
"Yes." Yuci took off the water and put on a green robe and leather jacket.
Yu Ci decided not to enter the imperial mausoleum. Li Funing looked at her several times before walking away and thought she was stupid.
"Everyone has his own ambitions." Cao Xiwan coughed, "Princess, hurry up, do you want to come?"
"I haven't changed yet—"
"It's time to go into the water anyway, so there's no need to change it. Just wipe off the frost."
She took a few warm-up pills and turned around to get into the water again.
On the shore, several people who were changing clothes behind the shadow of the trees were startled and shouted: "Miss Qing, I just took off my clothes! Don't you need to change your clothes? Don't you want to kill Feng Junqing?"
"Let him and Song Chengming both suffer, and we can reap the benefits." She snorted, "Let's go in and find the treasure. The fewer people we share, the better."
"The edict belongs to me." Liu Ruhai walked out, still dressed in black fish skin.
"Oh, I know. You have no share of the treasure!"
She and Liu Ruhai began to divide the stolen goods, "I remember there should be a few strange weapons in it. After grabbing it, we will share it among the companions, including Bai Fu'er. Be careful, Su Jintian will definitely want it too. Xiliu - if you
It’s your fault to be soft-hearted!”
"I will definitely grab it." Lou Xiliu put on the waterbag again and came out carrying his green oilcloth parcel.
"We each have half the money." She continued to tell Liu Ruhai, "This is not negotiable."
"I can give them all to you." Liu Ruhai smiled, her brows filled with joy, and she immediately looked around at her companions: "Has everyone heard it?" She firmly believed that there must be a brave man with a lot of money, so she smiled and read the words, "You also have a share of the treasure.
Remember to guard your retreat."
"Yes." Yuci's eyes suddenly lit up.
Liu Ruhai had already seen it.
Among her companions, the one who liked money the most was Yuci, and had no interest in taking medicine, cultivating, or robbing demon fetuses, and had a stable temperament. As a result, Cao Xiwan trusted her the most.
Of course, her favorite companion is Xiliu.
Xiao Zhao asked quietly: "What is the edict?"
She whispered mysteriously: "Death reminder."
"..." Bai Fu'er pricked up her ears and overheard these three words. The little eunuch was sadly left behind, guarding the retreat with Yu Ci.
But thinking about getting a weapon, he was very satisfied.
"Can you play?" Cao Xiwan asked him.
He nodded and blew the puppet whistle cherishedly. After a while, a green-robed puppet emerged from the woods.
"One is missing, call a few more. You all can guard the retreat together." Liu Ruhai looked around and said, "There should be quite a few around here."
As soon as she heard this, she speculated that Feng Junqing's puppets who had escaped from the Elephant Leopard Room and had no masters because they were raided by the Marquis of Nankang were all around here.
"Moreover, many of Nankang Hou's puppets have escaped. They are all heading this way."
"They are all green-robed puppets." She was dissatisfied. Green-robed puppets are puppets with little intelligence and can be controlled with voice.
"The puppet in gray robe is looking for you, or Aunt Wu."
"..." She was speechless.
Bai Fu'er followed her instructions and blew slowly with just one breath of fresh air. The sound was quieter and fewer puppets were heard.
All that can be heard are masters among the green-robed puppets.
He was so dizzy with the bragging that he only called six, especially Cao Xiwan who felt that there were too few.
She coughed and cleared her throat, straightening her chest and placing her hands on her hips.
When Liu Ruhai saw her like this, he knew she was going to sing a song.
The three groups of people in front of the altar all looked in this direction, but none of them moved.
To enter the imperial mausoleum, you must pass by the altar in front of the mausoleum. The Qingluo female ghost will come sooner or later.
"Is Demon Ai Qing here? Song Qing." The little grandson raised his head and asked Nankang Hou.
"……should be."
As for his agreement with the female ghost Qingluo, she would kill Feng Junqing and Dongdong, and he would steal the imperial edict. This was an agreement made when they were in the Wenhua Palace.
"Has the epidemic situation in the palace been dealt with?"
"Nothing has been done. King Zhao is going to fight tooth for tooth." Marquis Nankang also revealed the truth to her at that time, "Most of the people in the palace didn't notice that he was sick. Otherwise, His Majesty's illness would have been discovered long ago."
Cao Xiwan thought hard that this was because of her and Liu Ruhai's efforts.
She was not a palace servant, so she couldn't go to the palace where there was an owner. But she and Liu Ruhai worked diligently in various places, and the palace people's rooms had spread anti-epidemic powder! She thought, it was originally to prevent the group rooms.
The place is densely populated, and there are a large number of low-level palaces and eunuchs. Once an epidemic is spread, it will be transmitted to Your Majesty.
Who would have expected that it would be the chief concubines receiving gifts from the palace?
As a rule, they are surrounded by very careful nuns.
"Someone has been bribed."
"Executed?"
"I killed a few and deliberately kept a few." Marquis Nankang looked at her.
She was just thinking about whether to go to the palace to sprinkle some medicinal powder when he said: "No need. The people around these concubines were bribed because they were lax in their duties. They should have died. Besides -"
The Marquis of Nankang has cold eyes. His Majesty is seriously ill, and it is appropriate for the concubines in the harem to die together for His Majesty.
