The dead of night is the best time to sleep.
There was a shrill scream from inside Prince Li's mansion. It seemed that it was Princess Ana's maidservant who saw something float past and then floated back again, yelling in the yard.
The mansion is very quiet.
This is Prince Li's Mansion, no matter what happens, servants like them can't meddle in their own business. What's more, there is a clear regulation in Prince Li's mansion that slaves are not allowed to talk too much. Earlier when the Wei family was in charge of Prince Li's mansion, they did not dare to violate this rule set by Prince Li.
"Who?" Ana rushed out of the room angrily, with her clothes still on her body, "What's going on?"
The maid was trembling with fright, saying that something had floated past, but she couldn't see what it was.
Thinking of what the master and servant said during the day, Ana suddenly felt her hairs stand on end, and quickly closed the door, how could she dare to say more? It seems that if you close the door, everything will be fine, as if nothing had happened.
Under the window sill, Guan Yuqing and Nian Qiu covered their mouths and sniggered, then stooped and left quietly.
Not long after, the room exploded like thunder, "Mouse! Ah, mouse! Mouse... help..."
Well, a nest of mice is enough to toss.
...
Early the next morning, Bo Yunxiu walked out of the room in good spirits, and told the people below not to disturb Mrs. Bo's rest.
In the house, Shen Muxi turned over and continued to sleep, so as not to go out with a limp and make people laugh.
A Luo and Yue Gui were guarding in the yard, Shen Muxi turned over a few times, but couldn't fall asleep in the end, and when he became more active, he followed suit. After falling to the ground, his calves trembled a little, Shen Muxi supported the bedpost and stood for a while, and then he got better.
"Master!" Ah Luo heard the movement, and quickly brought water into the door, "Wash your face, the two young masters have already entered the palace, you can slow down, and it won't be too late to go to the medical clinic later."
"So happy on the face, what's the happy event?" Shen Muxi asked.
A Luo Duancha, "Master, I'm afraid I don't know, it was so lively at Liwang Mansion last night, mice visiting relatives!"
Gargling, washing his face, Shen Muxi didn't think about it for a while, "What?"
mouse
Visiting relatives
"I don't know which kind-hearted person caused a feast of rats for the proud princess. Now the princess is crying in the main courtyard and insists on seeing our prince!" Ah Luo went out and ordered the servants to prepare breakfast. send it in.
Well-wishers
Shen Muxi lowered his head and smiled, is there even a need to think about it? Besides Guan Yuqing, who was sliding like a loach, who else could it be? However, it is right not to name names, so as not to accidentally spread it to Princess Ana's ears and cause trouble.
Thinking about it this way, yesterday Bo Yunxiu really didn't refute even a word, and even threw him into the main courtyard of Prince Li's Mansion. Wei Xian'er lived in the main courtyard before, and now the princess is put there, what will the people in the palace think? Even if something happened in the main hospital, no one dared to take care of it.
Wei Xian'er's fate is in front of her eyes, let me ask, who dares
not to mention...
Guan Yuqing is now in charge of Li Wang's Mansion, this girl just ignores other things, but if she takes care of things, she's a serious person, and she can't look down on those who talk wildly.
"So, it's not all about face." Shen Muxi sighed softly.
It's all calculated!
"Master?" Ah Luo called softly, "What did you say?"
"Oh, nothing!" Shen Muxi pursed her lips and smiled.
Tomorrow is the day when the Ying Kingdom mission enters the city, Shen Muxi has to go to the infirmary today to give instructions, and besides... the palace must take action, it would be bad if she arrives late.
The number of sergeants patrolling the streets has doubled.
It was drizzling outside today, the shopkeeper shook the rain off the umbrella, and leaned the umbrella against the door, "Doctor Shen! There is a commotion in the palace."
"What's the trouble?" A Luo asked hurriedly.
The shopkeeper took a sip of saliva, "I just heard from shopkeeper Li on the street. He is responsible for picking and delivering medicinal materials to the palace. He said that the prince dispatched a large number of soldiers to surround the palace. It seems that he is arresting some rebellious party."
"Against the Party?" Chunxiu wiped her hands and hurried over, "Is it in the palace?"
"Yes!" The shopkeeper nodded, "I can't let it go, so let me tell you, these two young masters are still in the palace!"
Shen Muxi nodded, his eyes darkened slightly, "Something happened in the palace, we must bring it back."
"I'll go with you!" Chunxiu was concerned, she quickly pulled off her apron, put on her ancestral knife, and got ready to go.
"Let's go! Be careful." Shen Muxi didn't refuse, although Chunxiu doesn't know martial arts, but if something happens, she can still come in handy, thanks to Chunxiu's help last time.
The shopkeeper worried, "Be careful!"
The palace was full of chaos, and Nanyuan Pavilion was no exception.
Li Changxuan listened attentively to the movement outside the wall, stood in the courtyard with his hands behind his back, his eyebrows frowned slightly, "It's been a while, is it still ringing?"
"Young Fu, do you think something happened?" Bo Yu asked.
"A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall." Li Changxuan talked about him from left to right.
Shen Zhi stood with his hands behind his back, "Did the Taifu smell it?"
"Huh?" Li Changxuan frowned, "Respect the teacher, don't you understand?"
"Young Fu was the one who betrayed you first." Shen Zhi raised his head.
Li Changxuan glanced at the two younger ones, then squatted down, "If the people from Liwangfu don't come to pick you up within a cup of tea, you can come to the study to look for me, do you understand?"
"Why?" Bo Yu was puzzled.
"You are so young, why do you ask so much for food? If you are asked to come, you will come!" Li Changxuan walked away with a flick of his sleeves.
Bo Yu couldn't understand more and more, "What's he trying to do?"
"The time for a cup of tea, people from the palace?" Shen Zhi frowned, his mind was spinning rapidly, as if he had thought of something, he stared at Bao Yu for a while, "No matter what happens, We both want to be together, don't let anyone get lost."
"Why are you so secretive?" Bo Yu didn't understand.
Shen Zhi looked around, "Wait a minute, Shao Fu should have a clear idea."
Bo Yu was stunned for a moment, and didn't ask any more questions.
After the time for a cup of tea, Shen Zhi and Bo Yu pushed open the door of Li Changxuan's room together.
"Hey, I didn't come to pick you up!" Li Changxuan was picking up a pen and practicing calligraphy, "Close the door."
Bo Yu closed the door, and Shen Zhi looked at each other, each staring at each other.
"Young Fu!" Both of them saluted together.
"If you didn't come to pick it up, it means that you are going to become a fairy!" Li Changxuan closed his pen, "Forget it, I don't want to joke with you. Later, one of you will go to the side to get a small bowl."
Bo Yu was puzzled, "Why?"
"Decorate things!" Li Changxuan studied the ink, "Do you know how the cuttlefish escaped?"
"You want us to fill ink?" Shen Zhi reacted very quickly.
Li Changxuan sighed softly, "But the inkstone was given by His Royal Highness Li Wang, back then he wanted to let you, a commoner, enter the Nanyuan Pavilion, it was against the rules of the ancestors, so he got such an opportunity because he had arguing with those stubborn old people and broke his tongue. When it’s time, give me a inkstone inkstone!”
Seeing Shen Zhi's surprise, Li Changxuan knew that Li Wangding had never mentioned this matter.
"I have to say, Wang Li looked silent, but he was very thoughtful. He knew that if he gave gold, silver and jewels, I would definitely refuse. But this inkstone... it's true... it's impossible to refuse!" The way, scholars, just take this one.
The four treasures of the study can be regarded as the lifeline.
Shen Zhi didn't say a word, and Bo Yu frowned, "Young Fu, what do you mean by all this?"
"It's not interesting!" Li Changxuan filled the two bowls with ink and lime powder respectively, "you two have to be together all the time to ensure safety, you know? No one can be without the other. In addition, things like lime powder Well, as a gentleman, you should despise it. But if you lose your life and enter the loess, who cares whether you are a gentleman or not."
All in all, all in all, life is the most important thing.
Shen Zhi looked at the bowl in his palm, "Will it be dangerous?"
"There was a disturbance in the palace. Isn't it strange that someone as cautious as His Royal Highness Li Wang didn't send someone to pick him up?" Li Changxuan said with a smile, "Just in case, it's always right. If I think too much , naturally it's the best, otherwise, you two should be tight-lipped, understand?"
Shen Zhi nodded, "Understood!"
But Bo Yu hesitated, "Didn't you mean the disturbance at the icehouse? It's far away from Nanyuan Pavilion, so there shouldn't be any problem. Young Fu left school early today, and he was also worried about us children?"
"You are the future strength of the imperial court, and none of you will be hurt!" Li Changxuan patted the shoulders of the two brothers, "Be careful on the way back, even if there are any hidden guards, don't take it lightly, don't hand over your life to others easily In the end, you have to pinch it in your own hands to be at ease."
Shen Zhi saluted, "Xie Shaofu, Shen Zhi understands!" Due to an accident in the palace, the fact that school was dismissed early was really beyond everyone's surprise.
Li Changxuan also felt that leaving school early to avoid some people taking advantage of the situation and making trouble is an excellent coping strategy.
But he ignored it in the end, what about the mantis catching the cicada and the oriole
On the palace road, there were guards running everywhere, or maids and eunuchs in a hurry.
Bo Yu and Shen Zhi walked extra cautiously, A Zuo A You also guarded carefully, and they were relieved when they finally got out of the palace gate.
"Let me just say, there are so many accidents!" Bo Yu pushed Shen Zhi into the carriage, the left and the right had changed from secret guards to personal protection, and rode their horses to follow the carriage, each on guard.
Seeing that Shen Zhi didn't speak, Bo Yu was puzzled, "What are you still worried about?"
The guards were dispatched to the palace, and everyone's attention was attracted to the palace. If something happened outside the palace, no one would notice it for a while, right
Without saying a word, Shen Zhi tightly held the bowl filled with ink in his hand.
"Can you tell me, what are you thinking?" Bo Yu said in a low voice, "As a brother, at least share it, otherwise how will I know what you are thinking and what are you going to do?"
"Don't you find it strange? Why did the guards surround the icehouse?" Shen Zhi said.
Bo Yu, "..."
Can't answer.
After thinking for a while, Bo Yu poked his head out and asked, "Tell me, why did my father send troops to surround the icehouse?"
"Is it related to yesterday's box?" Shen Zhi seemed to understand a little bit.
What kind of person is Bo Yunxiu, Shen Zhi now understands more and more, this person is thoughtful, courageous and resourceful, but he is not good at expressing many things, and he is bored in his stomach.
If something suspicious hadn't happened, Bo Yunxiu would never have surrounded the icehouse and did such ridiculous things.
And the only suspicious thing now should be the sentence that Aunt Chunxiu inadvertently missed last night, referring to the strange box someone sent to the hospital.
After trying to understand this level, Shen Zhi's heart ached, and he dragged Bo Yu to sit down again, "Don't act rashly, I'm afraid what Shao Fu said will come true!"
Bo Yu smiled, "You are too worrying..."
There was a bang outside, and Bo Yu's face changed suddenly, "Could it be..."
"Zhi'er? Yu'er?" It was Shen Muxi's voice.
"I'm scared to death!" Bo Yu clutched her throbbing heart, "I almost thought it was the same as last time."
"Mother!" Shen Zhi got out of the carriage.
The dam is still the original dam, but now that Bo Yunxiu is discussing with the ministers, he feels that the dam is related to the safety of the people around the moat and should be taken seriously. From the starting point to the end point, a small group of sergeants were stationed at equal distances along the way, and simple bamboo sheds were built, and the guards were rotated at twelve hours. If there was any abnormality, a signal was sent to warn.
"It's as long as you're fine!" Shen Muxi felt relieved, holding an umbrella to cover the two children, "Fortunately, I can make it in time!"
"There is some chaos in the palace today, so the young master dismissed school early, so let's go home quickly." Bo Yu squeezed the bowl in his hand, "The young master said that we might be in danger, so he specially gave us this!"
Shen Muxi was stunned, how did Li Changxuan know
"Then hold it!" Shen Muxi said, "Go home and put it down."
Shen Zhi nodded.
Seeing that Shen Zhi didn't let go, Bo Yu naturally didn't let go, and followed Shen Zhi back to the carriage, and Shen Muxi rode together.
It was raining lightly outside, but it was quiet inside the car.
But gradually, the car seemed to stop moving.
All the sounds outside seemed to disappear, not even the sound of rain.
"What's going on?" Bo Yu asked in a low voice, feeling a little nervous, "Why is there no sound outside? The carriage isn't moving yet? Why aren't you talking?"
"Hush!" Shen Muxi signaled Bao Yu not to make a sound, and took out three handkerchiefs from his sleeve, "It's stained with medicine, you should wear it on your face, don't tear it off, understand?"
Shen Zhi and Bo Yu moved quickly and quickly put it on their faces, although... they didn't know why they did it.
"Hold your things tight!" Shen Muxi ordered.
The two children hurriedly hugged the bowl given by Li Changxuan, and they were close together.
Although it was quiet outside, it was not completely silent, at least Shen Muxi could hear some footsteps and the smell of blood. This can't help but remind her of the scene in the cat cave that day, the specific environment, the specific sound, under the urging of a strange pattern, the colorless and odorless gas was used to make everyone fall into their own dreams I can't extricate myself.
No one can perceive the existence of the people around them, because everyone is immersed in their own world.
With a ox hair needle in hand and a veil covering Shen Muxi's face, she looks like an old hen protecting her calf, wishing she could spread her wings and peck to death those evil-minded things!
"Bo Yu? Bo Yu!" Shen Zhi exclaimed.
Bo Yu felt drowsy, "I seem... I can't keep my eyes open!"
The car door was quickly opened, and it was too late to say it, but Shen Muxi just stabbed at the hand that just came in the door. She is a doctor, and the acupuncture was originally used to save people, but now
The ox hair needle will pierce the blood vessel at the fastest speed, and may also pierce the heart vein by virtue of the blood flow in the body.
He quickly retracted his hand, and the car temporarily returned to calm.
Shen Zhi patted Bo Yu, and Bo Yu immediately sat up, blinked and looked around.
Did you make it
"Doctor Shen!" There was a low laugh from outside, and the voice seemed familiar.
Shen Muxi frowned, motioning the two children to keep quiet and hide quickly.
Ever since, one got under the table, and the other got under the soft couch, lying face to face.
"The ox hair needle left by Mu Zhongzhou is really powerful."
Shen Muxi's eyes widened suddenly, and she tightly squeezed the ox hair needle in her hand. This thing is easy to get in and hard to get out, and it's hard to detect when it gets stuck into the body. It's even more difficult to get it out, so she always uses it with extra care.
"Who are you?" Shen Muxi asked coldly.
"Come out and have a look, don't you know?"
It's impossible to come out, two children are in the carriage, let her go out now, how stupid is she? But it's true to hold them back. If you count, it should be here soon.
"You used that box to let me discover the secret of ice cubes, so you misled King Li and put all your attention on the ice storage in the palace." Shen Muxi sneered, "Am I telling the truth?"
"So what?"
"Let me ask you again, who are you trying to catch? Our mother and son? Or my son?" Shen Muxi asked again.
"Everything!"
Well, the answer is straightforward.
Shen Muxi took a deep breath, "You used the method in the cat's cave, what secret is hidden in that pattern?"
"Pattern? That's the symbol of the Guardian, you idiot!"
Guardian
"Are you also a guardian?" Shen Muxi frowned, and subconsciously stroked his heart, "What do I have to do with the guardian?"
"Are you playing tricks on me? Shen Muxi, do you think I'll tell you?" The moment the sound fell, the car door opened in shock.
Shen Muxi was instantly taken out of the car by a huge force, and fell hard on the grass beside the embankment. Even so, her internal organs trembled from the fall, and she gasped in pain.
But the next moment, her eyes widened in shock, "Is it you?"
"Recognized?"
Isn't this face the same as the original Yanzhilou... Bustard
"It's you!" Shen Muxi looked around, there was no one around, it was empty, this was not a dream, definitely not a dream, they should have moved something, "What's going on?"
"Didn't you ask about the sign? When the eyes of rebirth are opened and the flowers of the nether world are everywhere, the secret of longevity will be completely revealed." Wei Ruoyun sneered, "However, you won't understand! It is the sign of the guardian, but it is also extremely The terrifying formation can only be mobilized by the guardians of the clan with their internal strength and mentality! Do you think now, do you still have the qualifications to fight with the Longevity Sect?"
Shen Muxi stood up, "What about the formation? Back then, the guardian clan would be destroyed because of your ambitions. Now that you are struggling, what do you want to do? The key has been taken away, what else do you want?"
"The key was taken away, but you have to die too. Those who know the secret should disappear!" Wei Ruoyun raised his hand.
"Wait!" Shen Muxi narrowed her eyes, "Even if you want me to die, you have to let me know, who are you?"
Wei Ruoyun said with a cold face, "Wei Xian'er was hurt because of you. Now I am not only killing people for the Longevity Gate, but more importantly, I have to vent my anger on Xian'er. Whether you are Shen Muxi or Xia Wenxi, You must die this time!"
"Really?" Shen Muxi shook his head, "I don't think so!"
Wei Ruoyun gritted his back teeth, "It depends on your life, whether it is hard enough!"
Suddenly, a cold shout fell from the sky, "I return this sentence to you!"
Between lightning and flint, a powerful palm wind hit his head and face, Wei Ruoyun was terrified, and met the palm vigorously. In the duel between masters, the fight was against the inner family, and the blood gushed out in an instant. Wei Ruoyun looked at Bao Yunxiu who had settled down in disbelief, "You, how could you break in?"
"Back then, the imperial court was able to destroy the guardian clan. Naturally, they had mastered the secrets of the guardian clan. Wei Ruoyun, do you really think that this king would not be able to see through your trick? Think about it, you stupid brain!" Bo Yunxiu's throat was filled with fishy sweetness, but he still strode to Shen Muxi's side, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Are you hurt?"
"It's just in time, and I asked a lot of useful things." Shen Muxi smiled at him, but frowned the next moment, Bao Yunxiu's complexion was not very good, and the blue was turning white. Could it be because of the collision just now that he also suffered internal injuries
"That would be the best!" Bo Yunxiu nodded, and immediately looked at Wei Ruoyun coldly, with a murderous look all over her body, "The Wei family ran away with such a wicked person like you in the past, and now the account can be settled! Aren't you going to avenge the Wei family? ?Come!"
Wei Ruoyun gritted his teeth, "It's not just the Wei family, but also the account of the guardian!"
"Clan protector?" Bao Yunxiu looked fiercely, "Are you going to avenge that trash Han Tianming?"
"You are not allowed to insult him!" Wei Ruoyun soared into the air with a sharp palm.
Bo Yunxiu stopped where she was, standing in front of Shen Muxi alone.
The wind from Wei Ruoyun's palm created a wave of air that struck Bo Yunxiu's clothes, but it couldn't shake him a bit.
With concentrated force in the palm, the wind of Wei Ruoyun's palm fluttered away with a flick of his sleeves. Bo Yunxiu made a backhand palm, avoiding Wei Ruoyun's palm force, and pierced Wei Ruoyun's pipa bone with an internal force.
Blood spurted out, Wei Ruoyun landed heavily, turning his head, a mouthful of blood protruded from his lips.
Figures gradually appeared around, and gradually...
Ah Luo, Yue Gui, Ah Zuo Ah You, including all the guards, appeared in front of Shen Muxi one by one.
"The formation is broken?" Shen Muxi was stunned.
"Her skill is no longer enough for her to maintain this formation, so it's about to break." Bao Yunxiu held her hand, "Are you scared?"
Shen Muxi shook his head, "It's all within your preset plan, and no one was hurt. However, I thought it would be Zhong Yao or Wei Xian'er who came, but it was Wei Ruoyun, which was a bit of a surprise."
"An unexpected harvest is also a harvest." Bo Yunxiu waved his hand.
Mi Li led the men to hold down Wei Ruoyun, then immediately put on heavy shackles and dragged him away.
"Shen Muxi!" Wei Ruoyun's mouth was full of blood, the bone of the pipa was covered with blood, and the dark red color covered his whole body, "Don't be complacent, you will cry when the time comes. Your Highness Li Wang, what do you think?"
Bo Yunxiu said nothing.
"I thought they would use medicine or Gu, but I didn't expect this clan to still have formations. What kind of tribe is this, so scary?" Shen Muxi was surprised, "You really know the secrets of the clan, so you broke into it." here?"
"Didn't I give you all my mother's brochures?" Bo Yunxiu said, "What are you still doubting?"
Shen Muxi didn't doubt it, but felt that Wei Ruoyun's last words made people feel a little flustered, so he had to think too much, "You already knew that they would use the formation, and you also expected that they would take it lightly in the formation, so just let it go." Do I start after I finish asking?"
"As long as you're happy!" Bo Yunxiu's face turned pale, "I'll take care of the next thing, Mi Li will escort you back to the villa, be careful on the way."
Shen Muxi pursed her lips, "I look at you as if you were hurt, let's take a look at you!"
He smiled, "Don't look, just test it yourself tonight. Of course, if you think it's not enough, you can keep testing it. My husband won't mind you, just go up and down—his hand!"
"Dead!" She rolled her eyes and strode away, with a clear smile in her voice, "I'll go and see the children, they are still hiding in the car, I don't know if they are scared?"
Behind him, Bao Yunxiu gently covered his heart, took a deep breath, then slowly stood up straight again, and stood there watching Shen Muxi get into the carriage. There is deep affection in the eyes, and the pale smile is full of pampering.
Rao is this back view, looking at it is also full of happiness.
When the carriage left, Bao Yunxiu subconsciously supported the willow tree beside him, turned his head and spit out a mouthful of blood, his complexion was instantly horribly pale.
