Capture the Jade

Chapter 111: [Double shift in one] Eat my uncle...

If someone catches them hiding here, it will inevitably lead to misunderstanding, so hiding is not enough, Lin Chengyou also motioned Teng Yuyi to hold her breath with the inner training method he taught her.

Teng Yuyi did as she did, and the peach blossom swordsmanship taught by Lin Chengyou is said to have been created by a founder of Taoism Zhongnan Mountain. No matter it is practicing or holding your breath, it is much easier than ordinary people.

The two silently hid behind the tree.

There are two people coming, one in front and one behind.

The man in front was a man who had practiced martial arts, and his steps were light and steady.

Behind it is a woman.

Soon he was near, the man in front stopped, looked around and heard no obvious human voice, and said in a very low voice: "This place is fairly clean, I will leave after a few words with you."

The woman said: "If the prince has something to say, please speak directly. If you have been away from the table for a long time, it is time for my sister to look for me."

Teng Yuyi and Lin Chengyou were taken aback, it was the prince and Du Tinglan. If I knew it was them earlier, it would be better to greet them directly. This time, it's okay, it's not to hide, it's not to dodge.

The prince whispered, "Have you read the letter I sent?"

Du Tinglan was silent: "I haven't dismantled it yet."

Prince Yizhi: "You always avoid me in every possible way, do you despise me as a person, or do you have other concerns?"

Du Tinglan's voice trembled a little, whether it was fear or shame: "The prince's words are serious. His Royal Highness, Long Zhangfeng, has a kind-hearted nature. The ministers and daughters only admire and respect the prince.

"Then why don't you accept my gifts and refuse to go out to meet me? Are you afraid that I am not sincere to you? Do you know that it is not a day or two that I have a good impression of you, and she likes it very much too. you."

Du Tinglan said in panic: "Thanks to the wrong love of the Queen and His Highness, how dare the ministers and daughters-"

After a while, Du Tinglan seemed to have calmed down a bit: "I dare to ask Your Highness, His Highness has only seen the courtier's daughter a few times, and he doesn't even know the temperament of the courtier's daughter, so why do you think I'm good."

The prince seemed to understand a little: "Are you worried that I'm just on a whim for you?"

Du Tinglan didn't say a word, but there was a soft stubbornness in the silence.

The prince was dumb for a moment, then laughed in a low voice: "You're so cute like this. I like it very much."

Du Tinglan's breath became more and more disordered, but she still insisted: "Your Highness, please be serious... answer the question of the minister and daughter."

The prince paused, and his tone became very solemn: "Don't worry, I don't care about you on a whim. There are some things that I don't want to say, but since you want to understand, I will tell you in detail.

"The first time I saw you at Ledao Villa, your splendid heart and embroidered mouth certainly made people feel good, but I know that there are many people in this world who are clear in words and deeds, and few people are consistent in appearance and deed, so that time I only knew that you were Duke Du. My daughter, I didn't pay much attention to you. As a result, when I met you after that, you made people look up to you every time. Yuzhen Nuguan Guan, you took the initiative to return the Ning Xinlian you picked up to others. On Mount Li, you were the first Go back and help the injured peasant woman. On the night of the Buddha Bathing Festival, your brother accidentally stepped on an old woman's foot. Not only did you stay to make amends, but you also gave the money from your body to the grandparents. Your sister had an accident and you cried You have red nose and swollen eyes. Your sister is taking refuge in Dayin Temple. You have to accompany her to live in the temple regardless of the danger. You are not only sincere, but also the friendship between sisters is very touching. Although I have not dealt with you directly, but these things I can see it in my eyes, some people want to distance themselves the more they get in touch, and some people are more attracted to them the more they get in touch, you are soft-hearted, as your name suggests."

"That time when Ada didn't tell you the truth that Lu Zhaoan used Gu on you, you asked him to tell me all these things, saying that Ada taught you to be a man of integrity and persuaded me to get rid of my thoughts as soon as possible. You will find out later. Lu Zhaoan used intimidation to harm people, because he was afraid that he would harm other women again. He was not afraid of damaging his reputation, so he took the initiative to testify at Dali Temple. After I figured out the ins and outs, I felt sorry for you, and after this incident, Only then did I know that you are not only pure and kind, but also resolute and resolute."

Du Tinglan said nothing.

"Do you still think I'm on a whim? You think I've only seen you a few times, but I already know how good you are, otherwise why would I ask you to be the crown prince?" The prince's voice became lower and lower.

Du Tinglan moved in a panic, and then the footsteps stopped again. I don't know if it was held by the prince or the prince took him into his arms.

Teng Yuyi heard the sound of fabric rubbing, a heart almost popped out of her throat, and then peeked at the side, Lin Chengyou's ears actually turned red.

Lin Chengyou frowned and closed his eyes, crying in his heart.

Who would have thought that A Qi ran into such a coincidence to confess to Du Tinglan.

It just so happened that he was with Teng Yuyi again.

Going out again at this moment will only embarrass both parties, so they have to stand firm.

Fortunately, the two quickly separated again. Du Tinglan struggled and said, "I... I have to go."

The prince seemed to hold Du Tinglan again: "Can you leave the house tomorrow?"

Du Tinglan didn't speak, but her low and disordered breathing showed that she was in a mess now.

The prince seemed to be a little embarrassed, and said with a smile: "Then I heard people say that if a gentleman loves a woman, he will try his best to stay with her. I'm too lazy to make excuses like I used to, I just want to see you more."

Lin Chengyou's ears exploded, what is a guilty conscience, this moment is a lesson. It sounded like he was talking about him, he subconsciously glanced at Teng Yuyi, Teng Yuyi looked up at the moonlight above his head, as if nothing had happened.

Lin Chengyou scolded the prince in his heart, and if he made his heart clear, he would make his heart clear. What are you talking about? What a "bad excuse", his excuses are always upright.

Until the prince and Du Tinglan left, the atmosphere behind the tree was still indescribably weird.

In the end, Lin Chengyou was the first to speak: "...Catch the monster is a big deal, remember to leave early tomorrow."

Very righteous tone.

Teng Yuyi didn't look up to appreciate the moonlight this time, but looked at the bunch of beautiful hosta flowers over there, she sighed when she heard Lin Chengyou say this.

How do you know someone is coming from outside.

Lin Chengyou and Teng Yuyi glanced at each other quickly and had to hide again.

Here comes a group of people. There are two ladies in front, followed by a number of maids.

Lin Chengyou and Teng Yuyi slandered at the same time: Why is it endless.

Then, more and more breathless.

The two ladies knew each other, one was the wife of Liu Guying, the minister of households, and the other was Mrs. Lin, the daughter-in-law of the Marquis of Lin'an.

The two of them seemed a little drunk, and sighed as they walked: "It's too hot inside, but it's still cool outside, this place is quiet, let's take a rest here, oh, I just asked the court to give the children of Xiangxiang Academy the guidance on the seat. Why do you keep winking at me about the marriage?"

It was Mrs. Lin who said this.

Mrs. Liu said, "I'm just watching you mention Prince Chun'an. I'm afraid you'll be offended, so I kindly help you to divert the topic."

Mrs. Lin smiled in surprise: "Where does this come from? The world knows that the Prince of Chun'an has not yet married, and in the past, there were not many people who wanted to marry His Royal Highness, but unfortunately His Royal Highness rejected all of them. Speaking of which, His Royal Highness also has two More than ten years ago, I haven’t gotten married. I don’t think I liked the ladies in Chang’an City. My niece is different. She came from Fanyang Lu’s family and came to Chang’an at the beginning of the year. It looks like a lotus flower in the water. I am younger now, but it will be ready next year. If I ask His Royal Highness to see it, maybe I will fall in love with it at a glance. I said that I want this child to study at Xiangxiang Academy next year. matchmaker."

Mrs. Liu smiled and said: "You and I have been friends since childhood, and there are some things I can only tell you. You can put aside this idea. I heard from the master that most of His Royal Highnesses have someone he likes. The day before yesterday, His Royal Highness was still inquiring about the royal family in front of the royal family. How does the prince handle marriage affairs, maybe he will directly ask for decree in a few days, if he really wants to get married, how can we wait for next year."

Lin Chengyou was shocked, blaming him for being busy investigating the case these few days, but he didn't know that the uncle had a crush.

Teng Yuyi was also surprised.

Mrs. Lin asked with a smile, "Which family's wife does the prince take a fancy to?"

"I don't know, I guess it's the daughter of a foreign official. Maybe it's not long before I came to Chang'an, or why did His Royal Highness the Prince of the County not make a move before. Some people say that it may be the daughter of General Teng, because these foreign officials who came to the DPRK this year are from other places. Daughter, this child is the most outstanding in appearance. The last time I met a great evil at Yuzhen Nuguan Guan, I heard that this child escaped with his companions. His Royal Highness is like a fairy, an ordinary woman. I don't even care."

Teng Yuyi frowned secretly, these words were too outrageous.

It is not surprising that the family members would pay attention to these matters. The marriage of the royal children was related to the previous dynasty. It was inconvenient for the husbands of the previous dynasty to openly inquire.

When a maid came over, Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Lin left.

Teng Yuyi turned her head, only to find that Lin Chengyou's face was ugly.

Lin Chengyou's face was ugly and ugly, afraid that there would be a third wave of people next, he glanced at Teng Yuyi, quickly loosened his brows, said "remember to come out earlier tomorrow", and walked away to the other side.

***

The next day, Teng Yuyi didn't sleep in and got up early in the morning.

After combing his hair and changing his robe, he sat in front of the dressing table and meticulously put the mask sent by Cheng Bo on his face.

After putting it on, she looked around at the mirror. In the mirror was a completely unfamiliar face. Except for the eyes and lips, which belonged to her, everything else was far from her own facial features. He Biluo said, "Ask Cheng Bo, this mask is a bit ugly, can you change it to a more beautiful one?"

Chunrong and Biluo looked at each other in amazement. In the past, Niangziyi just wanted not to be recognized as her true face, but today she is so picky about the beauty and ugliness of the mask.

Biluo said helplessly: "My servant, go ask."

After a while, Biluo returned to the house holding a few masks: "Cheng Bo said that he still has a few pictures, but they are not very good-looking. If Yi Rong makes it too beautiful, it should be noticed by others. If you don't go out to a banquet, why do you care about beauty and ugliness, just use this, at least it's inconspicuous."

Teng Yuyi propped her face on one side and looked at the person in the mirror impatiently. After thinking about it carefully, she seemed to be a little unreasonable. Bar."

After dressing up, Teng Yuyi asked Duanfu to disguise himself, while he sat by the window and carefully wiped the Xiaoya sword. After wiping it, he was about to have breakfast when Cheng Bo came over and said, "Prince Cheng is here."

Cheng Bo's tone was a little hesitant, and after a long fuss, the lady wanted to go out with the prince.

Hearing this, Teng Yuyi didn't care about eating anymore, and took Duanfu out of the house without saying a word. Lin Chengyou repeatedly stressed yesterday that he should leave earlier, maybe he has other arrangements after returning to the city.

When he went out, he saw Lin Chengyou on horseback waiting outside the door.

The sky was still a touch of cyan, Lin Chengyou was wearing a golden crown, and the outline of his body was plated with a layer of gold borders by the morning sun. Behind him was the Qingyunguan chariot, and even the driver was ready-made.

"Get in the car." Lin Chengyou glanced at Teng Yuyi.

Teng Yuyi answered happily, let Duanfu sit outside with the driver of Qingyunguan, and lifted the curtain and got into the car.

After turning around the alley and walking out of the city for a short distance, we arrived at Yinchun Alley, and in front of it was a famous gluttonous restaurant in Chang'an.

Lin Chengyou reined in the reins: "I haven't had breakfast yet, let's eat something before leaving."

When Teng Yuyi smelled the aroma wafting from the alley, he realized that he was in a hurry to have breakfast, so he said in the car, "Okay."

Lin Chengyou seemed to be very familiar with the restaurants in these streets and alleys. As soon as the host saw him, he greeted him enthusiastically: "The prince is here. This is—"

Lin Chengyou smiled and said, "The new junior brother in Qingyunguan, just call her inaction."

Teng Yuyi pretended to salute: "Pindao bows his head."

The host's enthusiasm was unreasonable: "The Taoist priest, please come in."

"I want something sweet or something salty." Lin Chengyou turned to ask Teng Yuyi.

Teng Yu thought for a while: "It's sweet."

Lin Chengyou asked the host to make four sets of glutinous rice, two for Duanfu and the driver outside the store, and two for the table. What Teng Yuyi wanted was the cherry gravy topped with cheese.

The two of them sat at the table by the window, and sat quietly facing each other for dinner. The golden morning light penetrated into the window, casting a soft color on their faces.

Teng Yuyi was very satisfied with the taste of this gluttony. Lin Chengyou often walked around the streets to handle cases. When he was hungry, he would buy some food to fill his stomach. When it comes to finding food, I am afraid that few people in Chang'an City are better than him.

Lin Chengyou quickly finished eating, and cleaned his hands with a towel. Seeing that Teng Yuyi was still tasting slowly, he waited patiently.

When she finished eating, she asked, "Are you full?"

Teng Yuyi cleaned her hands, pointed out the window and asked, "Is there any other food nearby? There won't be so many restaurants when I leave the city, so I might as well buy something else and hit the road."

Lin Chengyou smiled, this idea is not bad, maybe he didn't bother to show it, after thinking about it, he got up and said, "Okay, come with me."

Taking Teng Yuyi around, he quickly bought a lot of things for her, all of which are very famous food nearby. I bought several copies of the cakes alone, one for Huan Zhankou and one for Jinsu flat cake. In addition, there are pig vinegar, fish soup, various preserved fruits... all of them are easy to carry and satiety dry food.

"Will you buy too much?" Teng Yuyi asked Lin Chengyou. At first, she was eager to taste everything, and she felt that it was too much to buy.

Lin Chengyou looked at the pile of food boxes, and said, "It's almost done now. You can hide the ones you like the most in the car, and let Duanfu hold the rest."

Teng Yuyi snorted: "Why hide?"

"You'll find out later, let's go and buy wine." Lin Chengyou took Teng Yuyi to a shop called Baijia Liquor Store, and asked the owner to send a wine bag out. He picked up the wine bag and twisted the mouth of the bottle. , the gesture made Teng Yuyi smell it.

"Smell it."

Teng Yuyi sniffed, her face full of surprise: "Bolo wine?"

Lin Chengyou's eyes were full of smiles, and he knew that Teng Yuyi would like it.

"how?"

Teng Yuyi was full of praise: "Good wine, good wine."

She admired Lin Chengyou so much that this restaurant was so inconspicuous, who would have thought that such a master brewer was hiding in it.

She asked the price with great interest, but she didn't expect it to be expensive. Lin Chengyou asked the host to send out ten bags, paid for the wine bill, turned around and asked Teng Yuyi, "Do you want to buy anything else?"

Teng Yuyi was satisfied: "Enough is enough."

Lin Chengyou got on his horse and said, "Let's hit the road then."

With Teng Yuyi, he went straight out of the city, exited the Yanping Gate, and walked forward for a while, and there was an abandoned village at the end of the road.

Teng Yuyi looked out through the curtains, and there were actually five old Taoist priests riding small donkeys waiting by the side of the road.

"Five?"

"Sir." Seeing Tian jumped off the donkey and led the juniors to greet him.

Lin Chengyou said to Teng Yuyi outside the car, "Get out of the car."

Teng Yuyi got out of the car and looked, even Jianxi and Jianle came. Since the two of them were injured by a corpse evil in Caifenglou, they hadn't come out for a long time. It seemed that the wounds were well maintained, and the two of them were blushing.

Lin Chengyou should have said hello in advance, Wudao was not surprised when he saw Teng Yuyi, came over to look at her up and down, and greeted cheerfully, "Little Daoist Wuwei."

Teng Yuyi returned the salute with a smile: "Junior has seen all of you Venerable Masters."

Jianxi looked at Teng Yuyi ambiguous, and then looked at Lin Chengyou: "I was looking for the prince a few days ago, but the prince only said that he was not free, but today is quite free, and he actually took a whole day to run outside the city to fight monsters."

The air was silent, Lin Chengyou looked at Jianxi with a half-smile, if it weren't for Jue Sheng and Qizhi, and Teng Yuyi's mana was not enough, he wouldn't be too lazy to bring these five bad old men, this words couldn't stop him, he smiled slightly, and then Wanting to push back the words, seeing the sky for fear that the younger brother would be suffocated, he took the lead and replied: "The day before yesterday is the day before, today is today, the prince has his own arrangements, walk around, don't talk too much, it's better for us to return to the city early after the fight. "

It was only now that Teng Yuyi understood why Lin Chengyou had to buy so much food, probably because Wu Dao was too noisy, so buying some food in advance would be better to plug their mouths with something at the right time.

With a thought, Guo heard Lin Chengyou say, "Wuwei, distribute the dry food you brought to several Taoist priests."

Teng Yuyi waved and asked Duanfu to bring the food box, and said to everyone thoughtfully, "It takes too much effort to catch demons. The Taoist priests should just hide the dry food in their arms, and eat them in their hands when they are hungry."

Wudao was noisy and crowded in front of Duanfu. Because he was busy distributing the dry food, it was quiet a lot. After the busyness, the group set off.

The village in front of them is smoky and overgrown, with a faint yin rushing past.

"Yesterday, a Taoist friend found traces of evil things in this place, and he didn't dare to look inside. The evil spirit is so heavy, most of it is the outline."

Lin Chengyou looked at the village quietly, shook out a silver chain in his hand to turn it into a long sword, and told Teng Yuyi: "This place is not quite right, remember to follow me later, no matter what happens, don't run away."

Teng Yuyi nodded cautiously, drew his sword out of the sheath and followed Lin Chengyou, and asked Duanfu to confirm whether the pouch on his neck was in good condition. Yes, the mana is comparable to an unusual talisman.

Seeing Tianbian walking, he said, "By the way, Shizi, a few days ago, in order to find Chikuo, the city and the city were all set up. Why are so many Taoists sent out to patrol the city on time recently?"

Teng Yuyi's heart moved. Last time, Wu Qi said that Master Jingchen said that Chang'an would soon have a "big disaster". It seems that Lin Chengyou not only took this word to heart, but also started to investigate what this so-called "big disaster" is. .

Lin Chengyou said unhurriedly: "Don't you think that the appearance of the outline is very strange, this thing is transformed by the evil spirit between heaven and earth, and it will not appear in a chaotic world, but it is a prosperous world now. Durability and corpse evil were destroyed a hundred years ago. It’s not surprising that it can be released by the Haoyue Sanren gang under the pressure of the law, but the chikuo is a soulless thing, it can’t be manipulated, and it’s even less likely that it will be suppressed by the formation. elephant."

Jian Le Wenyan raised his head and looked at the sky: "The celestial phenomena have been a little weird recently, but if you want to say what's wrong, you can't say it for a while. By the way, it is said in the "Demon Book" that the ruler also has the ability to foretell disasters. Their appearance may not necessarily be in response to the present, or may refer to the future.”

Teng Yuyi said in his heart, this doesn't make much sense. The chikuo was originally empty, and it could only be generated by the evil spirit of the weather, and so many appeared all at once, indicating that this evil spirit has existed for a long time.

Lin Chengyou obviously didn't agree with Jue's statement, but he didn't refute it, he just said: "Recently, when the seniors were patrolling outside the city, apart from the outline, did they see any unusual evil things? For example... only Five strange ghosts that only appear in troubled times."

Wu Dao shook their heads one after another: "I haven't heard of this, why did the prince ask this?"

Lin Chengyou was thoughtful and walked into the gate of the village while speaking. The coolness in the air became stronger and stronger. It was a sunny day, but the surroundings were foggy. Walking in it, you would lose your way.

In order to identify the direction, Teng Yuyi tried her best to round her eyes, but suddenly she heard the silver chain squeak, something hit her waist in the fog, and then the silver chain quickly went back and tied Duanfu. up.

Teng Yuyi breathed a sigh of relief, and Wudao seemed to realize something was wrong: "This is not like the barrier of Chikuo, this fog... how does it look a bit like..."

Before he finished speaking, something ran behind him, and a woman's laughter came from the fog. The laughter was surprisingly soft and seductive.

Five strange voices shouted: "Seven Desires Heaven!"

Lin Chengyou's face was strange, he pulled Teng Yuyi to his side, took two steps back, dragged her and ran out: "This monster can't be beaten, hurry up."

Teng Yuyi followed in confusion: "Do you run without even fighting? No, senior brother, didn't you say that there are no monsters in this world that you can't fight?"

"That's not what the score is." Lin Chengyou plausibly said.

Jian Tian and others shouted strangely: "Wuwei, listen to your senior brother, it's fine if I didn't bring you out today, if you are there, I can't fight, think about why this evil thing is called Qiyutian, it likes it the most. Bewitching young men and women - if you don't want to be bewitched at the same time as your senior brother... just listen to your senior brother."

Teng Yuyi opened her mouth, listening to this, could it be that the evil thing in this fog is not serious?

At this moment, Duanfu seemed to have hit a wall in the fog. The thing was so strong that it knocked him straight and flew backwards. Fortunately, he had a silver chain on his body, otherwise he would have disappeared into the fog long ago. .

Lin Chengyou flicked the silver chain and forcibly pulled Duanfu back. Suddenly, he heard Xi Ye screaming, and apparently he was also bounced back by the wall.

"It's over, we can't run away." Jianle shouted.
