Lady Changning

Chapter 69

Xuanfu? Midnight
Xuan Jing bribed the guards, and finally escaped from the Xuan Mansion. He patted the burden on his body, which contained enough money to escape. Before being caught by his father, these were life-saving money.

In order to show that he was serious enough, he even took time to visit Hengshan Quanqing Temple.

"Will Zimian and I go to the capital?"

Twelve hours a day, Huangfu Zimian spends at least eight hours meditating. I really don't know how he can learn all the skills of Taoist Tianxuan in such a short period of time.

Huangfu Zimian opened his eyes when he heard the sound, looking at Xuanjing who seemed to be fleeing for his life.

"doing what?"

"Hu Chengxi Changning."

Huangfu Zimian was slightly startled when he heard the name, and closed his eyes at random, he could no longer find things to disturb his mood.

"Don't go."

Knowing that what Huangfu Zimian said usually cannot be changed, Xuan Jing scratched his head and wanted to change his name to let Huangfu Zimian go with him, but who knew that his father actually killed Hengshan.In order to save his poor life, Huangfu Zimian could only be left behind for the time being.

"Hu Cheng is waiting for you. If you don't come, then...then I will go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to propose marriage!" In short, he will not marry that Yue Lingshuang.

After finishing speaking, Xuan Jing turned and left, disappearing into the night.

Huangfu Zimian was slightly taken aback, what did Xuan Jing say just now?Propose marriage?Did you hear me wrong?It turned out to be a good thing, and I had another sleepless night.

Hucheng
As soon as he received the news, Xi Changning hurried over. I really don't know what kind of strong wind could blow the Buddha Xuanjing here.

"Let me tell you, I have already found someone to investigate what you want me to do. Although people in the world are rarely involved in officialdom, they can do it for you even if they have money, but I have a request. .”

Xuanjing is full of dust, and when he arrived in Hucheng, he was frightened by Hucheng now. How can it still look dilapidated before?This Xi Changning really has a skill.

There is also the Purple Mansion in Hucheng, although it is trying to hide it, it is still very useful to outsiders, but where did Xi Changning dig Zimu, a man who is not like a man, and a woman who is not like a woman?

"Say." Xi Changning gritted his teeth and said.

"Take me in." Now that Hu Cheng is so good, it must be a comfortable thing to stay.

Xi Changning glanced at Xuan Jing, seeing his unclean appearance, he must have also escaped from the Xuan Mansion.

"Zimu go arrange a wing room. Let him stay for ten days, if he still can't give me a satisfactory answer within ten days, I will inform the master of the Xuan Mansion and ask him to come and lead me."

Zimu nodded obediently, but Xuanjing was so angry that he jumped.After all, this is the place where he sent Xi Changning, why is he more like a guest now?

Xuan Jing just looked helplessly at Xi Changning standing in the upper hand, and he still couldn't fight back at all, and the beautiful man beside her also looked at him expressionlessly.Xuan Jing could only sigh and accept his fate.

"By the way, Xi Changning, why is the purple mansion in Hucheng purple? It can't be He..."

"Five days."

"Don't! I'm all for you!" Xuan Jing wanted to cry but had no tears.

Xuan Jing reluctantly followed the maid to live in the wing room, ordered the maid to get the bath water, and took a comfortable bath, unfortunately, she was hungry again.

"Master Xuan, this lady asked me to send it." Mingyu's face was a little warm, because Xuan Jing didn't know it at all, and he was shaking around in a middle coat.

"It's you. Xi Changning's dog leg." Xuan Jing is now angry when he mentions Xi Changning.

Mingyu's face became even hotter, why does this person say such things about others?Fortunately, she still wanted to take this opportunity to thank him for saving his life last time.

"I'm not that kind of person." Mingyu retorted.

Xuan Jing didn't care about the girl's rebuttals. He had been eating steamed buns on horseback for the past few days, and he could finally have a good meal today.

"This is really delicious. I never imagined that the Hu people would make the dishes from the Central Plains so delicious."

"I did it." Mingyu whispered.

Xuan Jing secretly smiled in his heart, this little girl is really fun.Of course he knew that she did it, since he entered the Zifu, he saw two people from the Central Plains, Xi Changning and Mingyu, and saw that those maids were eating cakes and fruit wine, not to mention other barbarians.

"Sit down and eat together." Xuan Jing stretched out his hand and pulled Ming Yu to sit down.

He handed her the chopsticks on the side. Mingyu had no choice but to hold the chopsticks and was helpless.

"Master Xuan doesn't eat shrimp?"

This stir-fried prawn is what she is best at, and she learned it from the chef of Xiangfu.

"I like it, but it's too troublesome to eat." He knew it was good when he smelled it, but the way he ate it was too wasteful, so he just didn't eat it.

Mingyu sighed, put down her chopsticks, picked up the shrimp, and handed a bowl full to Xuanjing after a while.

For some reason, Xuan Jing suddenly felt that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, especially when he saw Mingyu's bright eyes, he could only bury his head and eat.

Before Mingyu left, she remembered that she hadn't returned the plain white handkerchief to Xuanjing for some reason, and thought to herself, let's talk about it next time.It's a pity that I don't know when the next meeting will be.

The business in Hucheng is getting more and more prosperous. Many Hu merchants like to come to Hucheng to gather and sell their goods. Because they are all their own people, they save a lot of trouble.

Xuan Jing ate and drank in Hucheng as a VIP, so Xi Changning didn't bother to care about him and let him go.On the other hand, Zimu's big ice cube had a rare meeting with him and had a pleasant conversation. The two of them drank and chatted, both of them were very happy.

Ten days later, news from Jianghu came, and a stack of letter paper was heavy in Xuan Jing's hands. He read it from the beginning curiously, but he didn't know that there were many familiar names in it.

After silently thinking for a long time, he started to escape again, taking half a stack of letter paper with him, and the rest was enough for Xi Changning to slowly digest.

When Xi Changning received the news from Xuanjing, she didn't dare to stay for a moment and immediately rushed to Hucheng. She always showed men's clothes without changing her clothes.

Seeing her fluttering red dress and her exquisite hair crown flickering in her jet-black hair, Zimu panicked.

Xi Changning read the letter left by Xuan Jing repeatedly, and finally became more sure that Xuan Jing took half of it, and that half happened to be crucial.She put the letter away carefully, and digested what she had just learned. There were a lot of people involved, which made the relationship in the palace even more complicated.At least one thing is known, the woman in white in the painting is the queen's younger sister, Gu Hongyi.

And this Gu Hongyi was Concubine Gu Hui who was the only concubine in the harem back then, and also... the biological mother of the second prince, Huangfu Zimian.But why is she insane and locked up on an isolated island by the queen?The most important thing is that Concubine Gu Hui is dead.Presumably what Xuan Jing took away was the rest of the stories that happened.

"Go and tell Master Xuanfu to go to Hengshan to capture Xuanjing."

Holding the other half, I really want to leave, but I just want to protect another person, Huangfu Zimian.Now let you know the fate of offending her, Xi Changning.

Hengshan? Quanqing Temple

Xuan Jing anxiously shuttled through the forest with his lightness kung fu, he walked half a stick of incense, or flew.

Everyone in Quanqing Temple knew Xuan Jing, so they didn't care about his appearance of coming and going freely.Xuan Jing didn't know to be reserved at all, and grabbed Xiao Daotong who was sweeping the floor.

"Where is Zimian?"

"Master... Uncle Master is having morning class." Xiao Daotong was so frightened that he stuttered.

Knowing where Huangfu Zimian was, Xuan Jing threw Xiaodaotong aside, and flew away by himself.

"Purple Cotton!"

Xuan Jing didn't care what other people thought, dragged Huangfu Zimian and left the room where he was doing morning classes, and the rest of the brothers looked at them in surprise.

Huangfu Zimian knew that Xuan Jing would not come to him if there was no urgent matter, let alone be so rude.

"doing what?"

"Do you know what this is?" Xuan Jing took out the letter hidden in the bundle and handed it to Huangfu Zimian.

Huangfu Zimian was very puzzled, and read the letter twice before and after receiving it.Immediately, his hands trembled slightly, and the letters scattered all over the place, they must have lied to him.

He must have lied to him. How could this be the case?It was obviously an accident, how could it be murder?He hated that man for so many years, and he couldn't forget the feeling of touching the cold corpse with his hands from the beginning to the end.

"Do you know who asked me to investigate this matter?" Xuan Jing changed his usual hippie smile.

Huangfu Zimian was slightly taken aback. When Xuan Jing left, he had said that he would go to Hu Cheng to find Xi Changning, so could this matter have something to do with Xi Changning?He once asked Xi Changning about her painting of the woman in white, and she denied it all. Now that she went to check again, it seems that she knew about it.

"How much does she know?"

"Less than half. But I don't guarantee that she won't be able to find out the other half with her mind."

Xuan Jing spread his hands helplessly to answer.

"Not for the time being." Otherwise, why would she ask Xuan Jing, an outsider, to check on the affairs in the palace? She must have encountered something in the palace.

"Do you know the name of Xi Changning's mansion in Hucheng? Zi Mansion." Xuan Jing deliberately prolonged the last two words, obviously meaningful.

Huangfu Zimian knew that Xuan Jing would tease him about Xi Changning, so he ignored Xuan Jing and put away the letter, and walked back on his own.

"Hey, why are you doing this to me?" He even took him to report to him in a hurry, but in the end it seemed that he was the only one in a hurry.

"Xuan Jing, hurry up. Your father has sent someone to follow at the foot of Mount Heng. It's probably going up the mountain soon."

After Xuan Jing heard it, his eyebrows were burning with anger, and now he is ready to throw himself into the trap.He didn't want to go back to get married yet.

"Zimian, will you save me?" Xuan Jing really hated himself for being so mean.

Huangfu Zimian didn't care about him, although he still looks like a fairy, warm and moist on the face, his heart is surging, can he still find out about this matter?But the master said that once you step into the world of mortals, it is difficult to turn back.

He is now Zimian, not the Huangfu Zimian who has the surname of the country. That woman is dead. Although he cares about it, he can't go back. He just chose the former between these two names. The past is just passing by.

"Zi Mian, did this kid Xuan Jing tell you something?" Taoist Tianxuan can always say something at the most critical moment.

Zimian shook her head, as if everything was false and had nothing to do with him.

Taoist Tianxuan sighed deeply, but the person most like a Taoist will still step into the world of mortals in the end.

"Zimian, it's not that you pretend it didn't happen and it didn't happen. It's stuck in your heart. The one who suffers is always yourself."

"Master, I am devoted to cultivating the Tao, and I have nothing else to think about."

The watery eyes that looked like deep pools shone with firm light, Taoist Tianxuan laughed loudly, but he didn't point out everything that happened afterwards.
