"...I'll go..." Mu Nanzhi gritted his teeth, "His uncle!"
Ji Xiang was stunned for a while, and when he came back to his senses, he was so busy that he covered his ears: "... this slave didn't hear anything!"
Mu Nanzhi: “…”
It was impossible to go to Ningjun Prince's Mansion. Mu Nanzhi was so angry that he didn't even want to eat dinner. He went to bed angrily. As a result, he tossed and turned again all night, finally fell asleep, and had another nightmare.
In the dream, she chased wild boars all over the mountains and fields with great vigour. The horse's legs were almost broken, but she couldn't catch up with one. Instead, she was thrown to the ground by the horse. She was so angry that she gritted her teeth and murmured a lot of curses, but suddenly a wild boar appeared. Walking leisurely in front of her with her tail wagging, she pounced on the wild boar without saying a word, hugging the two hind legs of the wild boar tightly and not letting go. The wild boar was also stupid and struggled. It became obedient after a while and lay down in front of her without humming or barking, letting her take out the rope and tie it around its neck.
At this time, another wild boar ran towards her. She was happily thinking that she could catch two wild boars at the same time. She was giggling, but the wild boar she tied suddenly broke away like crazy. The rope was about to hit her head-on. She watched the angry wild boar open its mouth to her. She was so frightened that she held her head and screamed, and then she heard the wild boar speak -
"You greedy and bad girl! Let's see how my cousin deals with you!"
Mu Nanzhi opened her eyes suddenly and stared at the bed tent above her head in horror. It took a long time to calm down her breathing. She looked at the gray window and closed her eyes again tiredly, but she never fell asleep again.
She was thinking wildly, thinking about the wild boar meat sent by the fourth prince, and thinking about the fourth prince's attitude towards her on the hunting ground, and she buried herself under the quilt distractedly.
She really wanted to see Lu Zhishan, but what would she say to Lu Zhishan after seeing him
Cousin, I didn't catch the wild boar.
Cousin, the Fourth Prince sent me wild boar meat.
Or, my cousin, the Fourth Prince, stole your leg of lamb, pheasant, and hare
Mu Nanzhi howled a few times under the quilt, getting even more annoyed.
It's quiet late at night, in a remote courtyard on the outskirts of Beijing.
The Taoist priest was stumbled inside with his hands clasped. He was blindfolded and couldn't see anything. He only felt the faint candlelight in front of him. He was kicked by someone and his knees bent backwards. He knelt on the ground all of a sudden. As soon as his knees touched the hard ground, he suddenly felt a chill spreading from his knees to his whole body.
"I heard that you are good at hexagrams and are more capable than your dead master Deng Yanwu." The man sitting on top, dressed in rich clothes, looked down at the trembling Taoist priest from a high position. "Then you can count as a hexagram now. Which of the five sons of Long Live will finally aspire to the throne?"
The Taoist priest stumbled and said: "The little old Taoist is not good at learning. In fact... I really can't calculate the hexagrams of the sky. Please forgive me."
"Hmph, I think it's not that you're not good at studying, but that you haven't suffered enough." The man still said slowly, while waving to the guards below.
"Snapped!"
"Ah!"
As soon as the man finished speaking, the Taoist priest felt a sharp pain coming from his thigh. The Taoist priest collapsed to the ground and wanted to reach out and touch his leg, but he did not dare to touch it. His whole body was shaking like chaff.
