Gai Lou didn't understand why she wanted to fish for other people's lanterns. He originally wanted to ask, but thinking of his purpose this time, he still held back and said nothing.
After holding the lantern, Wen Qingzhu retracted the pole, bent down and picked up the lantern.
After careful inspection, she found nothing, so she put the lantern back.
After going back and forth like this, from Gai Lou's point of view, Wen Qingzhu was just bored and wanted to watch the lanterns.
Until Wen Qingzhu got a lantern and touched a small packet of oil paper from the bottom of the floating wood.
She turned it over, took off the paper package, opened it and saw a dried root piece inside.
After taking it to the tip of his nose and smelling it, Wen Qingzhu laughed.
Looking up at the end of the Tianying River, this river connects to the outside of the city.
People and animals will definitely be inspected when passing by, but if a lantern passes by, most people can expect that there may be something underneath.
"What is this?" Gai Lou saw what was in her hand and realized the problem.
Wen Qingzhu turned around and handed the paper bag to him: "This is something that the Asan tribe wants to transport outside. I suggest you go back and hand this thing over to Master Xi Zhu immediately, and then search the whole city for it."
Gai Lou took it over, looked at her with a frown and asked, "Aren't you coming with us?"
Wen Qingzhu shook his head and said, "Now is not the time."
She raised her head and glanced at the busiest central section of the river, and her tone was a little heavy: "If nothing else happens, something will happen here tonight."
"What will happen?" Gai Lou was feeling extremely uncomfortable now. He could feel that the woman in front of him knew a lot of things, but she chose not to say anything.
Wen Qingzhu waved his hand to urge him: "You hurry up and leave! Tell Lord Shizhu that as long as he catches the person who possesses this medicinal material, it will be a great achievement for him, and Qiulin will not get past him under any circumstances!"
"Then what do you want Master Zizhu to do?" Gai Lou could tell that what this woman wanted was definitely something from Master Zizhu's help, and it was definitely not a trivial matter.
Wen Qingzhu sighed helplessly: "I asked you why you are so grinding and nagging. It's just that you don't look as good as He Lai. You are so unlucky no matter how you do things. You might as well let He Lai do it!"
As soon as these words came out, Gai Lou's body froze, and he was shocked: This Master Xiaoshui has a crush on He Lai
After hesitating for a moment, Gai Lou decided to leave first.
But before leaving, he handed Wen Qingzhu a piccolo: "Master, take it. As long as what you say is true, Master Shizhu will definitely help you."
Watching Gai Lou leave, Wen Qingzhu shook his head. As expected, Gai Lou had inherited Zhi Zhu's suspicion.
But it's okay, people like Zizhu are easier for her to deal with.
Especially the younger version of Zhi Zhu like Gai Lou.
After building the building, Wen Qingzhu approached the liveliest place, where many young men and women were dancing.
Many people were even kissing in the dark.
The customs here are completely different from those in Daqi. They are more warm and open, but the relationship between men and women is also more fragile.
Wen Qingzhu waited for a while, and Beidou suddenly turned his head.
She looked back and saw He Lai standing not far from them in new clothes, his face a little stiff and he looked reluctant.
"Why are you here?" Wen Qingzhu immediately waved to him.
He Lai took two steps and stopped far away. He looked at Wen Qingzhu with complicated eyes and said, "Only a few princes are suitable for people like you."
"Huh?" Wen Qingzhu was startled, why did he talk about this
Didn't she make everything clear before
Soon enough, someone chasing the corpse appeared behind He Lai, and she was also a female slave.
Wen Qingzhu suddenly thought of the jokes she had just told Gai Lou.
Did he go back and tell Zizhu
"Come here, you were sent here to accompany me today anyway." Wen Qingzhu turned around and stopped looking at He Lai.
I'm afraid that He Lai is very disappointed now. He is obviously better than Gai Lou in every aspect, but now he is sent here to please others like a male favorite.
He Lai looked at Wen Qingzhu's back and was extremely shocked. Could it really be Master Xiaoshui's request
Thinking of this, he almost turned around and left.
But Lord Corpse Chaser was so kind to him. Now that he was injured and couldn't help Master Corpse Chaser, could he have no choice but to sell his body
He Lai has grown so old, even when he learned that he was replaced by Gai Lou, he was not as aggrieved as he is now!
After struggling for a while, He Lai walked to Wen Qingzhu's side.
According to Xiongnu etiquette, he is a commoner and Master Xiaoshui is a noble. Now that Zhizhu has sent him here, he has no choice.
So He Lai knelt on one knee in front of Wen Qingzhu and stretched out his hand.
Wen Qingzhu was shocked when he saw this courtesy.
She knew that this was the etiquette for a Hun man to submit to his mistress. Now as long as she put her hand on He Lai's and let him kiss it, He Lai would be hers no matter life or death.
Wen Qingzhu was originally very proud of He Lai, but he didn't expect that he would express his willingness to surrender so simply.
For a moment, she fell silent.
He Lai is not building a building. As long as he is given a chance, he will become famous all over the world in the future.
Unless Wen Qingzhu kills him a hundred times now.
After not waiting for Wen Qingzhu's hand for a long time, He Lai raised his head, looked at her and asked: "Master Xiaoshui, do you think surrender is not enough?"
Wen Qingzhu reacted and knew that she still had the power to turn He Lai into her slave.
She faced He Lai, stood with her hands behind her hands, looked down at him and said: "I don't need your surrender, but Master Xi Zhu sent you here, and I will accept it without mercy. If the time comes in the future, you can let him go." you left."
He Lai was surprised. He never expected that Wen Qingzhu would not accept him.
After thinking for a long time, he asked a question: "Do you think I have no experience?"
"No experience..." Wen Qingzhu's head was full of black lines. Are all Huns so unrestrained? Hobbies are so special.
Seeing that her expression was wrong, He Lai asked again: "If you have any dissatisfaction, sir, just say that this is the last request of Master Shizhu to me, and I will definitely do my best to fulfill it."
Wen Qingzhu's mood fluctuated. Is the He Lai in front of him really the He Lai he had heard about before
After a long time, Wen Qingzhu reached out and pulled him up: "He Lai, you know, as long as I want, I can choose whether it is the second prince or the fourth prince, but I don't."
He Lai looked puzzled, Wen Qingzhu let go of his hand, turned around, looked at the jubilant Xiongnu people in the distance, and said in a serious tone: "I have already married someone, and I am now sure that I like him, so I won’t want another man. Although I don’t like him as much as I imagined, my willingness to come to Tianying City for him has already shown what my heart is.”
"Sir, are you willing to stay like this for the rest of your life for that person?" He Lai's world view was greatly impacted.
He even said involuntarily: "Others can't choose. Adults can have the opportunity to choose. Why not make themselves happier?"
"Because my current choice makes me very happy and comfortable." Wen Qingzhu looked sideways, with little lights reflected in his eyes.
For a moment, He Lai was distracted.
As for women, whether they were female slaves, poor people like him, nobles with status, or even royal princesses, they all showed kindness to him.
But He Lai never liked the power that he refused when his father was here. Later, he followed Zhi Zhu, and others did not dare to get involved with him easily, so he has always been free and has no worries.
Until now, he was sent here by the corpse. At the beginning, he was angry, unwilling, and even resentful.
Now Master Xiaoshui told him that there was only one person she liked.
He was even willing to come to Tianying City alone for that person, deal with the second prince, and weigh between Master Qiulin and Master Zizhu.
Their contact time was short, but He Lai had a very good impression of her.
Until just now, Lord Xiaoshui rejected him, and He Lai found that deep down in his heart, he actually felt a little bit disappointed.
Why is it lost
He Lai quickly understood that he was attracted to Master Xiaoshui.
But he knew better that even if he lowered his stature and gave up everything, he would never be favored by Lord Xiaoshui.
But that's okay, he didn't like the life of a male favorite in the first place.
It only took a short time for He Lai to go from anger to loss, and from loss to calmness.
He stood beside her and looked at her profile quietly. Such a woman was like a legendary goddess on the grassland, which made him feel happy but in awe.
Wen Qingzhu looked at the people singing and dancing over there and didn't notice the change in He Lai's mood at all.
It wasn't until two sneaky figures suddenly appeared in the crowd in front that Wen Qingzhu reminded him: "You are mine now, right?"
When he didn't get an answer, Wen Qingzhu turned around and looked over. He Lai's cheeks were slightly red and he nodded repeatedly: "Yes."
"Well, you go over now to seduce and seduce that woman." Wen Qingzhu said, pointing to a hot woman wearing a red gauze skirt among the crowd in the distance.
The awe that had just risen in He Lai's heart suddenly disappeared. The corners of his mouth twitched and he asked after a long time: "What do you want to do, sir?"
"If you try to trick her, there is a 90% chance that she is a spy sent by the Asan tribe." Wen Qingzhu explained with a smile.
He Lai took a deep breath, nodded and walked over.
He quickly walked over, and Wen Qingzhu saw him taking a glass of wine and quickly blended into the crowd.
Some people in the crowd seemed to know him, and they invited him to drink and dance in twos and threes.
He Lai did not refuse and jumped up with them.
Wen Qingzhu admired his dancing and nodded repeatedly.
Just as he was fascinated, Zuo Bingning's voice suddenly sounded beside him: "Sir, you don't really have a crush on He Lai, do you?"
Wen Qingzhu's smile froze, turned around, looked at her displeased and asked, "Why are you here? It's very dangerous today!"
"Because he's here." Zuo Bingning stepped aside, and a strange person appeared in front of her.
However, to Wen Qingzhu, this person was not unfamiliar, but rather very familiar.
Wen Qingzhu smiled and called him over: "Come here."
The person who came was none other than Lu Ce, who had changed his appearance. He quickly walked to Wen Qingzhu's side and stood side by side, looking over there.
"Have you subdued He Lai?"
Wen Qingzhu nodded: "Barely, but he is destined not to be a thing in the pool. Since the Corpse Chaser has sent him here, I will force my men to use him as long as I can."
"Aren't you afraid that that person will be jealous?"
Wen Qingzhu was startled and looked at him in disbelief: "Are you me?"
Lu Ce smiled, looked at He Lai over there and said: "It turns out that I have been in contact with He Lai, and I know that he is quite capable, but he was just trapped by the zombies. I tried to contact him several times, but was rejected. Unexpectedly You took the lead as soon as you came."
