After I was resurrected from the dead, I turned from an old man to a peerless beauty

Similar slender figure, similar weak temperament, similar white cheeks and long hair like crow feathers...

However, it is only "similar" after all.

After the initial slight surprise, Zhang Qiong immediately recognized the difference between Bai Ruolin and the real Lin Mao.

It can be seen that Bai Ruolin's words and deeds have been carefully trained, even his facial features... If Zhang Qiong's guess is correct, they have been deliberately modified like a woman, so there is such a doll-like appearance. exquisite.

But in the final analysis, no matter whether it is training or grooming, it is impossible for anyone who has actually met Lin Mao to mistake these two people.

Zhang Qiong's gaze focused on Bai Ruolin, and then quickly moved away.

He felt that Bai Ruolin had probably never met Lin Mao in person, otherwise he wouldn't be so stupid as to act like this.Speaking of which, Bai Ruolin is said to be Gong Ningzi's lover, but he doesn't know what Gong Ningzi thinks when he sees such a poor imitation of Lin Mao shaking in front of his eyes every day...

Thinking of this, a fleeting icy cold appeared in Zhang Qiong's eyes.

But the amiable smile on his face was exactly the same as Bai Ruolin's obedience, impeccable.

"Mr. Bai... I heard that you are a very popular person in front of Palace Master Gong. I was just going out for fun. Now that I have had enough fun, I go home secretly. How can I trouble a busy person like Mr. Bai to pick me up."

Zhang Qiong said softly, his tone was brisk, and he sounded exactly the same as that innocent young man who had never suffered in his life.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who is rich in gold, finally returned to Beijing today. Mansion Master Gong specially ordered me and others to come to welcome the Crown Prince back to Beijing. Bai will never dare to neglect."

Bai Ruolin took a quick look at Zhang Qiong—then next to Zhang Qiong's frost-faced Red Peony, and immediately knelt down on one knee, respectfully saluting Zhang Qiong.

"What's more, Palace Master Gong misses His Highness the Crown Prince very much. Thinking that His Highness is facing the curfew after entering Beijing, it will be difficult for him to move around, so he has already prepared a room for His Highness the Crown Prince in Chizheng Mansion, and only waits for His Highness to go to rest."

After his actions, there were countless soft rustling sounds in the darkness. It was obvious that the attendants and guards who were hiding in the dark also received Bai Ruolin's hint and saluted... Although everyone knew , Zhang Qiong was sitting in the carriage, it was impossible to see the movements of those people.

With these actions, Bai Ruolin obviously wanted to show his respect to Zhang Qiong.

But obviously everyone present could tell that Zhang Qiong didn't intend to follow Bai Ruolin, but Bai Ruolin just pretended not to know, and had already decided Zhang Qiong's whereabouts.

Limited mobility due to curfew?

Zhang Qiong raised her eyebrows slightly and almost laughed outright.

"Oh, that's right, that really made Palace Master Gong and Mr. Bai... bother."

Zhang Qiong responded quietly, and then glanced at Bai Ruolin, who turned pale slightly.

Zhang Qiong is now sitting in the "black carriage" of the Chizheng Mansion. When encountering this carriage, is it possible that the inspector would dare to step forward to stop it?Even if he took ten thousand steps back, as the prince of a country, when did he need to take care of such trivial matters as the curfew?

Bai Ruolin's words sounded soft, but they sounded full of anger.

Not to mention that Bai Ruolin did not hide his contempt for Hong Mudan at all. You must know that Hong Mudan is one of the lords of the government, and his status is only lower than Gong Ningzi. Even if Bai Ruolin is Gong Ningzi's favorite Apprentice, you should kneel down and answer Red Peony's question.But not only did Bai Ruolin not do this, but instead he used the time to salute Zhang Qiong to fool the question.

Zhang Qiong glanced at Hong Mudan quickly from the corner of her eye, and she saw that her master's eyes were even more murderous.

Oops……

Zhang Qiong couldn't help thinking.

And as if directly confirming the bad premonition that floated in his mind, before he had time to stop it, Hong Mudan had already stepped forward, stepped on the rut, and spat coldly.

"Boy surnamed Bai, have you forgotten that His Royal Highness is also my apprentice of Hong Mudan, even if we really want to escort him, it should be our Qionghua Order's business."

A golden light flashed in the dark night, which was the trace left by the scimitar in Hong Mudan's hand.

"Besides, it's impossible for all of us who hold the government to die. When will it be your turn to come out to do things?"

Upon hearing Hong Mudan's words, Zhang Qiong couldn't help but twitch her forehead.Such a blunt provocation really wasted the conversation between him and Bai Ruolin.

Sure enough, several cracks suddenly appeared on the obedient dog-like mask on Bai Ruolin's face. He raised his eyes to look at Hong Mudan, and the evil spirit on his body leaked a little.

I don't know how he acted. Just as Hong Mudan finished speaking, there was a sound of "shushing" in the dark night. On the corner of the eaves and walls, and even on the uncle with the crooked neck at the entrance of the alley, there were people wearing night clothes and a mask on his head. A shadow guard in black cloth.

The entire black carriage was blocked by shadow guards, as if it was surrounded.

Red Peony raised her phoenix eyes, looked around, and quickly judged that if all the mechanisms on the black carriage were turned to the extreme, they could still leave, but it would be difficult to guarantee that the people in the carriage would be unharmed.

Now that things in the palace have changed, Zhang Qiong's safety has become a thousand times more important than before. This risk cannot be taken anyway...never dare to take it.

But even though she had made up her mind, Hong Mudan showed no hesitation or cowardice on her face.

"Bai Ruolin, are you going to turn against me?"

She sneered, and with a flick of her wrist, she saw the scimitar in her left hand flying out, heading straight for Bai Ruolin.

Bai Ruolin changed suddenly, and immediately jumped back, only then did he avoid the scimitar dangerously——

"呲呲-"

It was too late to say it, but at the moment when the scimitar was shot, there were several sounds of piercing through the air, but it was countless short arrows with jet-black bodies that shot straight at the red peony.

Hong Mudan didn't even turn her head, she just stepped lightly on the rut, and the pitch-black carriage suddenly popped up with a tall deck, which happened to block Hong Mudan's figure.

Those short arrows shot directly on the deck, and the arrows couldn't be embedded in the deck made of unknown material, and fell to the ground in a mess with a few clatters.

And an instant before that, the scimitar that was thrown out of his hand swirled, drew a golden arc, and returned to Hong Mudan's hand.

"Well, it doesn't look like it's going to be reversed, otherwise it wouldn't be embarrassing to bring so many soft-legged shrimps out."

I don't know where Red Peony moved again. After the deck blocked those short arrows, it retracted silently to its original place.

Hong Mudan missed a blow, but her complexion improved a lot.She played with the scimitar in her hand, stared at Bai Ruolin with a sneer and said.

Bai Ruolin still looked a little pale, but he seemed to have regained his composure—it's just that when he looked at the red peony, he still couldn't help showing a bit of resentment occasionally.

"Sister Hong, you..."

As soon as he opened his mouth, he was taken aback, it turned out that there was a tingling pain and itching on his face.

Hong Mudan's knife just now did not fail, but cut a shallow cut on Bai Ruolin's face, and cut a strand of long hair.

But her knife was too fast, so until Bai Ruolin opened his mouth and moved slightly, the edge of the knife did not open, and the long hair never fell.

"you this--"

Bai Ruolin was able to hide his true emotions before, but when he found out that Hong Mudan had broken his appearance, his whole face distorted in an instant.

"What am I?"

Red Peony looked at Bai Ruolin who was jumping instantly with a half-smile, and answered quietly.

Bai Ruolin immediately fell silent, the masseter muscles on his cheeks tensed again and again, and it took a long time before he heard the blunt words that came out of his lips word by word.

"Sister Hong, you may have misunderstood. Now things are complicated in Chizheng's mansion. The Qionghua Ling who stayed behind in the capital are all sent to Dongcheng for night patrols to prevent those refugees from making trouble at night. The matter of His Royal Highness will be handled by Tong Yun, who I have now formed. make responsible."

"Tongyun Order?" Hong Mudan slammed the scimitar in her hand.

Bai Ruolin was slightly startled when he saw Hong Mudan, and a weird sneer twitched from the corner of his mouth: "Yes, Bai is not talented, and has to be taken care of by Master, and now he is also one of the masters by luck."

This night, Bai Ruolin finally got a chance to feel proud.

Didn't Hong Mudan always call him around because she is the Lord of Qionghua?

I'm afraid this bitch would never have imagined that the current Chizheng Mansion is no longer a Chizheng Mansion where she can act recklessly and arrogantly.

What Bai Ruolin didn't expect was that after being surprised at the beginning, Hong Mudan quickly returned to her disgusting and arrogant face.

"Tsk, this knife is dirty."

Hong Mudan's attention seemed to have completely stopped on the blade of the scimitar in her left hand - that was the one that cut Bai Ruolin's face.

"His Royal Highness, for the sake of you and my apprentice, lend me a handkerchief to wipe your knife."

She turned her head nonchalantly, looked at Zhang Qiong in the carriage and said.

She even wanted to borrow the handkerchief from others... It was nothing more than telling Bai Ruolin that she disliked the blood stained on the knife was too dirty, so she didn't want to use her own handkerchief.

Bai Ruolin's hand was holding the long sword at his waist, and the hilt of the famous and expensive sword made a slight creaking sound in his fist.

A stream of heat slowly flowed down Bai Ruolin's face, and he carefully wiped it off with a clean handkerchief.And his eyes fixed on Hong Mudan's back, with a killing intent like a knife.

With her back turned to Bai Ruolin, Hong Mudan rolled her eyes, then raised her eyebrows to look at her hapless apprentice, and spoke coldly.

"It seems that you have to stay in Chizheng's mansion tonight, don't complain, who told you that you are a fragrant bun."

Zhang Qiong glanced at Hong Mudan, and the two exchanged a look in a short moment.

"It looks like I'm right."

Zhang Qiong sighed and said helplessly.

Red Peony sneered.

"Don't forget, I haven't finished my words yet..."
