It's hard to be the king of rebirth

A girl spit softly: "Xiao Yaozi, why is it so late today, I've been waiting for you here for a long time, it's so cold."

Another person said with a smile: "Today King Ning came back from the battle and held a lively banquet. I played Pai Gow with a few father-in-laws who were in charge. I forgot the time for a while. Damn it."

Zhou Xu pondered in his heart, could it be that the fake eunuchs and court ladies who were not clean in the palace would be bumped into by him in private?He wasn't interested in such things, but he didn't dare to stand up hastily, for fear of scaring them both, so he continued to hide under the dangerous railing.

The girl said: "This is a major matter of moving your head. You are so careless. If something happens, don't involve me."

The other person hurriedly apologized with a smile: "Don't dare next time, don't dare!"

Zhou Xu was startled, the big thing about moving his head?Could it be that there is some big secret in it?Hearing the sound of the two people's footsteps drifting away, they slipped out from under the dangerous fence and followed them from a distance, to see what was the big deal of head moving.

I saw a man and a woman dodging, without lighting a lantern, holding a food box, walking on the moonlight, turning around every ten steps, sneaking.Zhou Xu thought that the matter must be of great importance, and it was definitely not just such a matter of having an affair.

I saw the two of them walked to the other side of the lake, turned into a rockery and hid in the bamboo forest. Zhou Xu had a bit of martial arts background, so it was easy to follow the two of them.The two stopped in front of a courtyard, and it was so dark that they couldn't see clearly, but Zhou Xu felt that the path was very familiar. After a while, he realized that this was the backyard of Suyue Zhai.

The two sneaked open the door and entered the room, Zhou Xu followed on tiptoe and stopped outside the room.Seeing the faint light in the originally dark room, Zhou Xu poked a hole in the window paper with his fingers, and watched secretly with one eye.

The room looks like an ordinary boudoir. There are two people in the room, one is dressed as a court lady, and the other is dressed as an eunuch.The maid reached out to a picture imitating the Fu of Luoshen, groped for a while, and took out a small object. When the candle light shone on it, it turned out to be a silver key shining brightly.The eunuch felt in the boot, and it was also a key the size of a thumb.The maid walked to the dressing table, opened a delicate dressing box, and inserted two keys in, probably because there were two keyholes in the dressing box. With a creak, the lock was unlocked, and a secret door on the wall opened. The maid and eunuch After checking around and making sure no one was there, he took the food box and entered the secret door.

Zhou Xu was dumbfounded, this Su Yue Zhai had a different world.With his skill, it is more than enough to deal with this court lady and eunuch, why not check it out?So after the footsteps of the court ladies and eunuchs disappeared, he also entered the room by touch, and quietly followed the secret door.

Behind the secret door is a gravel tunnel, cold and long, silent everywhere, a little movement can be magnified several times.Zhou Xu walked on his feet, and after a while, he heard a burst of maniacal laughter from the depths of the tunnel.He walked carefully against the wall, and after walking 30 meters, his vision widened, and there was a glimmer of light.

At the end of the tunnel was a stone room, which was decorated like a boudoir. A woman was handcuffed by a bowl-sized iron chain and tied to a carved stone pillar.The woman's hair was disheveled, and the face buried under the disheveled hair was covered with faint scars. The original eyes were two black holes. Even though she was wearing a silk dress, she looked very scary.

The palace maid timidly opened the food box, put the dishes in front of the woman, and said cautiously: "Madam, may I feed you?" It hit the maid's hand with a single slap, and the maid screamed in pain, and the food was scattered all over the floor.The crazy woman started laughing out of fear again, the court ladies and eunuchs hurriedly knelt down and said, "Damn this servant, you have offended the empress."

The mad woman suddenly stopped laughing, her body froze, she stared at the stone passageway with her empty eyes, and said in a low voice, "Who? Who is hiding there secretly?" The court ladies and eunuchs who were kneeling were also there Shushu turned his head and stared dumbfounded at the dark part of the stone path.

Zhou Xu was startled, he didn't expect that crazy woman to have kung fu, and she recognized him.Now he is hiding in the dark, thinking that the maids and eunuchs will not be able to see him for the time being, should he turn around and run away, or go forward to silence him?

When Zhou Xu was in a dilemma, he suddenly felt someone approaching behind him. Just as he was about to turn around to see what happened, his hands were already held by that person, and a slightly damp cloth was tightly covering his mouth and nose. There was a faint, familiar fragrance It came, this smell... Zhou Xu will never forget it even if he dies.

Before he could call out the man's name, he fell into a deep sleep.

Zhou Xu opened his eyes suddenly, and was hurt by a beam of strong light. He couldn't see anything clearly for a moment, and his mind was dizzy and he couldn't tell what night it was.

"Quickly report to the emperor, the virtuous king is awake."

A burst of hurried footsteps gradually drifted away, and after a while, another burst of footsteps got closer and closer, followed by the sound of greeting and bowing.

A pair of somewhat cold hands touched his forehead, and said to him warmly: "Heng Zhi, does your head still hurt?"

"Brother Huang, I..." Zhou Xu just wanted to stand up and salute, when the emperor pushed him back.

"Don't be too polite, look at you, you haven't opened your eyes yet." The emperor smiled and ordered his servants to bring hangover soup.

As soon as Zhou Xu closed her eyes, she saw the miserable appearance of that crazy woman chained up last night, and a name that was about to be pronounced and stuck in her throat...

"Brother, last night I—"

"You drank too much last night, and you hid yourself in the pavilion by Luhu Lake and fell asleep. If the guards who went to patrol found you, you might have slept in the pavilion until this morning." The emperor smiled and shook his head and continued. : "In the future, if you can't drink, don't drink it. You still drink secretly while hiding from me and everyone. You are really naughty."

"..." Conscience of heaven and earth, Zhou Xu didn't drink a single drop last night.

Eunuch Hai brought a bowl of hangover soup, saw Zhou Xu lying listlessly on the bed, and said with a smile: "Yesterday, the prince was so drunk that he passed out, and three or four guards brought you back, the emperor was worried all night. "

It really sounded like that, if Zhou Xu hadn't remembered everything that happened last night so vividly, Zhou Xu would have almost believed it.Could it be that he... charmed me and then put me back in the pavilion by the lake?Pretending to be me drinking too much?Zhou Xu secretly speculated.

But... why is he in the palace?

Moreover, the emperor is so deep in the city, how can it be so easy to hide.

"Yes, I don't dare to be so presumptuous anymore." Zhou Xu regained his composure and said smoothly.

After drinking a bowl of hangover soup, all the irrelevant people retreated, and the sunlight came in through the panes, it was already afternoon.After a while, the imperial dining room brought some minced chicken and wild mushroom porridge and some side dishes, and the emperor ate with Zhou Xu.

"Brother Huang, have you ever seen a woman in the palace... with a terrifying face and blind eyes?" Zhou Xu asked tentatively, quietly observing the emperor's face.

The emperor drank the porridge silently, and said neither salty nor bland: "How could there be a person with a terrifying face in the palace? Could it be that you are having a nightmare forever."

"..."

"You kept yelling last night, as if you had a terrible dream—" Putting the chopsticks on the table neatly, the emperor continued: "I saw that you were terrified, so I sat by your bed for a while. Just kept holding my hand and calling a certain name."

Zhou Xu gasped, sweat dripping down his back.

The emperor looked at him deeply, and said: "Yueqing for a while, and Xiaolou's shout for a while, as soon as I answer, you will stop forever."

When Zhou Xu left the palace, the clothes on his back were already soaked.

He sat in the sedan chair and looked out, the scene on the street was very different from before, there were many more guards with knives.

"Did something happen in the capital yesterday?" Zhou Xu asked casually.

A clever attendant beside him immediately said: "Since yesterday, the imperial court has sent additional manpower to search the Tsing Yi Hui. It is said that several old lairs have been set up today, and more than a dozen rebels have been arrested in just one day."

Zhou Xu was taken aback, a little worried about Li Sang and Yueqing, but he just nodded calmly.

As soon as he arrived at the gate of the palace, Bo Ru stumbled over to report that there was a girl who had been waiting for the prince at the residence for a long time. He told the truth that the prince might not come back for a while, so he asked the girl to go back first, but the girl Ignore the insistence to wait.Because the other party is a girl's family, it's not easy to be tough, so he has no choice but to let her wait in the side hall.

Zhou Xu frowned and wondered, girl?He thought about it carefully. After he was reborn, he didn't do anything romantic to any girl. It can be said that he has a clear conscience.Could it be that the previous owner of this skin has harmed the girl, and the girl has come to the door?

It's not impossible for this absurd virtuous king, after all, he won't let go of even the crown princess, even though his sleeves are cut off, it's hard to guarantee that he won't lay hands on other beautiful girls.

Zhou Xu felt apprehensive, entered the room without even having time to change his clothes, and before he had time to take a sip of tea, he rushed to the side hall.

I saw a young girl in Tsing Yi, with her hair tied on her head, was pacing in the hall, her willow eyebrows were slightly frowned, and her face was full of signs.This girl is Mu Yin.Her dress today was different from usual, she didn't bring a saber, she looked like Xiaojiabiyu.

The first time Zhou Xu saw her, he was relieved, but after thinking about it, he was very puzzled.Does this Mu Yin also know that I am the King of Virtue?Besides, she is a member of the Tsing Yi Society, and the court of Xian Wang Mansion has many eyes and ears. She is willing to take such a big risk to see me. Thinking of the many guards on the street searching, could it be that something happened to Li Sang?Zhou Xu became worried.

When Mu Yin saw Zhou Xu, his slightly frowning brows finally relaxed, his face flushed, and he ran up to him and called sweetly: "Zhou... Brother Xian Wang, you are finally back."

Bo Ruyue Lang, who was standing by the side with his hands down, raised his head in unison, and looked over in a daze.They are well-trained on weekdays and have never lost their composure like this.Zhou Xu coughed and waved his hand. He thought twice and quietly backed away. Bo Ru kept sneaking glances as he walked, thinking in his heart that this master's temper and taste have changed?

Zhou Xu asked Mu Yin to sit down, made a cup of tea for her, suppressed many doubts in his heart, and said straight to the point in a low voice: "There are many eyes and ears here, try to be cautious. Miss Mu Yin, is it because you came to the palace this time on an adventure? What happened to Mr. Sang?"
