"Cui Wang, what's wrong with you? Why, why... look at me like this?"
Zheng Wan was taken aback by him.
The moonlit night was too quiet, and the National Teacher's Mansion didn't even groan. The servants all lowered their heads, not daring to make a sound.
Cui Wang slowly put his hands into his cuffs, as if someone had pressed an active volcano on his chest, but he couldn't find an outlet for his chaotic emotions, and could only turn into more turbulent magma underneath.
"Send Miss Liu San back to the inn."
he said.
"Cui Wang!"
Zheng Wan disapproved authentically, "She—"
"deliver!"
A group of sparrows nesting in the trees outside the window were startled and flew into the air.
The servants were also taken aback, and hurriedly flocked to Mrs. Liu San, and said "please" respectfully.
In their impression, the national teacher is the real god who eats the wind and drinks the dew, not to mention talking to them, usually even rarely has an expression, but at this time he is so irritable that he seems to have changed to another person, which makes people feel frightened.
Liu Yi didn't understand what happened, she looked at Cui Wang worriedly, and finally blessed herself under the other's indifferent gaze:
"Farewell, my daughter-in-law."
A group of people huffed and scattered like birds and beasts.
There was only one lamp left in the room, as well as Cui Wang and Zheng Wan.
Only then did Zheng Wan realize that something was wrong with Cui Wang.
People who practice Taoism are always cool and sweatless, but Cui Wang's forehead and nose tip still have fine beads of sweat, and his lips are blue, as if he just passed through a serious illness.
"Cui Wang, what's wrong with you? But what's wrong?"
Zheng Wan only thought that the realm breakthrough might be a little difficult, so she took out a handkerchief from her waist to wipe his sweat with him, but unexpectedly, he dodged it like a plague.
"roll."
Zheng Wan's face suddenly became a little embarrassed.
No one has a heart of iron and steel, she came here overnight, and she had already thought about what to do in the carriage, and coaxed him back in a low voice—but at the end, his eyes pierced and he said nothing. not out.
Cui Wang is usually very easy to coax, cry and say a few nice words softly, and the matter will be over.
"Cui Wang, from now on..." Zheng Wan's tears rolled in her eyes, and then fell again, "Are you really going to ignore me?"
"Zheng Wan—"
Cui Wang looked down at her and suddenly smiled.
"Is your tears real or fake?"
Zheng Wan was taken aback for a moment, and when she raised her head, the expression on her face was filled with astonishment.
Cui Wang pinched her chin again and looked at her carefully. Her skin was like creamy fat, and her eyebrows were like distant mountains. She was so bright that even makeup and powder would dislike her color. He asked again:
"Under this beautiful skin, how many faces are there?"
"Cui Wang, what do you mean?"
Zheng Wan took a step back, intending to brush his hand away, but his fingers clamped her firmly like iron tongs, her jaw was pinched so painfully, "Cui Wang, have you taken a fancy to that Liu Jiasan?" Wife? Just want to put me aside and say it in advance, why are you so slanderous?"
"Slander?"
Cui Wang snorted, "Zheng Wan, how can you match your eloquence? You can coax people's hearts and gouge people's hearts."
Zheng Wan's intuition was not right, but she couldn't think of anything wrong. Cui Wang in front of her was sneering, cold, and sharp like never before.
"You are really gouging people's hearts when you speak now," Zheng Wan bit her lip, feeling that he seemed to be frozen into an ice hedgehog at this moment, making people have nowhere to say, "What happened?"
"You want to hear it?"
Zheng Wan nodded: "Yes."
"Then just listen to it."
Cui Wang flicked his sleeves, and a gust of wind swept the door shut. At the same time, a long red sandalwood box was suddenly thrown in front of Zheng Wan, and opened with a "snap".
The pieces of paper were blown away by the wind, but they lined up again in front of Zheng Wan.
She opened her eyes and watched, but she heard Cui Wang say:
"Everyone knows that Wan Niang of Zheng's family is both excellent in calligraphy and painting, but no one knows that a thin stroke of gold in her left hand penetrates the back of the paper, like a silver hook and iron painting. Wan Niang," he slowly turned sideways, whispered in her ear, " Do you think that you are hiding it well?"
Zheng Wan's face suddenly turned pale.
Three pieces of wax paper made of plain paper were pressed flat and spread out in front of her.
Cui Wang said: "Read."
Zheng Wan picked up a piece of paper:
"Plum garden cooks wine and cooks Liang geese."
"There will be brocade fur in the Yan Garden."
"The catkins fall to the west of Guangxi in a shock of wind."
These are the wax pills she handed to the Eldest Princess, there are three in total, nothing can be seen at first glance, even if it falls into the hands of others, it is just a scrap.
But she clearly told Aunt An Qing to burn it, why did it fall into Cui Wang's hands, and was neatly listed in front of her.
Could it be that Aunt An Qing sold her
No, it's impossible.
"Cultivators have all kinds of means, if you want others to know, you have to do nothing yourself."
Cui Wang straightened up, "However, I haven't thought through these three papers. The second paper is now clear. Yanchun Garden invites the prince to meet. The first paper is plums, wine, and Liang. , After thinking about it, you were looking for trouble with the surname Liang last time in the plum garden, but the second son of the Duke of Liang? Drinking wine? You can get in touch... And the third one, Wan Niang, can you explain it for me?"
Zheng Wan's lips were about to bite blood, and when she opened her mouth, she subconsciously wanted to smile, but he stopped her.
"Mo Xiao, such a forced smile is really not very pretty."
"The third one is about letting Liu Yiyuan marry Guixi?"
Zheng Wan's heart thumped, and there was only one thought in her mind at this moment: he knew, his heart was like a mirror, but he only watched her struggling there.
Really scary.
If so...
"you-"
Zheng Wan's voice was rough and hoarse, and when she didn't know how many things she knew, she didn't dare to say a word, fearing that if she said too much, she would miss the point, and if she said too little, she would miss the point.
It is really difficult to move forward, and it is also difficult to retreat.
"There are many mysterious things and mysterious people in my upper world. There is a kind of person who is born bright, and when he is about to encounter a catastrophe, he will feel it. How to predict the future in advance, Miss Wan—you are like this?"
It's over, he knows it all.
Zheng Wan suppressed her panic and subconsciously wanted to grab the hem of his robe, but this time, he refused to let him be caught.
How much should she see through.
"So, from the acquaintance, to the illusion, and even to the present, you and I are all in your calculations, right? How much do you know?"
Zheng Wan shook her head: "No, it's not."
"It's not all calculations," she said.
Zheng Wan guessed, and Cui Wang only guessed that she knew part of it, but she never knew it. She almost saw his whole life.
She shook her head:
"One day, I, Aye, was suddenly punished to kneel at the gate of Anju. It was the first time I met you at that time. Cui Wang, do you still remember?"
"Remember."
"I was dizzy at the time, and I asked the imperial doctor to send it back. If you inquire carefully, you should know that I have always had heart palpitations. Every time I have heart palpitations, my Zheng family encounters major problems. This time, I was listening to the wind and rain overnight. When I woke up, I vaguely saw something. .”
"What did you see?"
"I saw that my Zheng family was overthrown. I, I will suffer from ups and downs, travel three thousand miles, and finally die miserably. I, Aye, my mother will die." Zheng Wan closed her eyes and opened them again. At that time, there was a smile, "God has mercy, and warned me."
Cui Wang closed his eyes, only felt that the pear blossoms poured into his stomach had faded from his mind, and he saw the green hills when he cleared the fog.
"So, you are going to please me in every possible way?"
he asked in a deep voice.
"Then what should I do?" Zheng Wan smiled miserably, Yubai's little face was full of trembling at this moment, like a flower that had been beaten by frost, "I don't want to sit and wait for death, looking for a chance, is there something wrong?"
"... I know you will appear in the plum garden, but I don't know where it will be. I just heard that the people who bullied me in the past will also go, so I want to make a fool of them."
"How to explain the bloodstone hairpin?"
"Of course I can inquire about it. Although it took six or seven years to inquire about what happened back then, if we really inquire, we can still inquire about it. The concubine of the Liu family saved someone and got another hairpin. On the hairpin is a ' Cui is not difficult to guess."
"Did you know that there is an illusion on the stone boat?"
Cui Wang looked at her deeply, suppressing the magma that was about to burn the tip of his heart into two.
"How do I know this?"
Zheng Wan stared wide-eyed, full of curiosity, "Can the enlightened people over there know the fate of others? It's so miraculous."
Cui Wang asked the ancestor:
"In addition to predicting the fate of one's own life, can the enlightened person also see the life trajectory of others?"
"Take it as a storybook. You can read it if you want. People like them are blessed by God and have a chance to survive, but they can only see things that are closely related to themselves. At most, blood relatives can read some together, but most of them are fragmentary. Shapeless."
Cui Wang remained silent.
He just felt that his body was about to be burned through.
The magma at the bottom of the volcano turned half into flames and half into stagnant water. His heart was burned by fire and frozen at the same time, making him—
"In this way, your so-called sincerity to me is all calculations."
He said slowly.
In this pain, Cui Wang unexpectedly became numb.
He knew that all of these were false, as soon as he went to Xuancang Realm and solved the Gu, all these things would disappear in smoke.
