dragon pen

A guilty conscience.

Zhang Ziyao saw Tai Lianqing's pissed-off appearance, and the original team Taishang Huang's words became full of doubts, so he began to feel uneasy-reminiscent of Fuyao's awkward expression when he mentioned Zhu Jiuyin look like...

It's over, Zhang Ziyao thought, Zhu Jiuyin died too, and he didn't even have time to say goodbye to him... Could it be that Zhu Jiuyin knew that he was destined for such a fate, so he drove him away in the end?

Yes.

Otherwise, how could their red line be inexplicably broken?

Zhang Ziyao thought about it wildly, Taishanghuang's topic about the red line kept ringing in his ears: the young man didn't even have time to seriously think about it, how could he have the confidence that the other end of his red line was implicated in Zhu Jiuyin's name.

"—Niu Niu, tell me, if Zhu Jiuyin dies, will the next Zhu Jiuyin appear?"

On the way to Prince Rui's Mansion, Zhang Ziyao was dizzy from the panic of the sedan chair, so he asked Su Lian.

Su Lian thought about it seriously, then shook his head seriously: "No, he is not a god with important duties."

"He is the god of Zhongshan!"

"What kind of gods are mountain gods? Mountain gods don't count."

Zhang Ziyao said "Oh", and until the sedan chair was about to arrive at the gate of King Rui's Mansion, Zhang Ziyao didn't say a word - his mind was full of Zhu Jiuyin's death, maybe he was picked up by the person they said Or he was pulled out like a dragon prince, and then he was thrown into any river randomly. His black robe was stained with blood donation, and the blood flowed along the river and dyed the clear river water red... …

The sedan chair fell down with a "click", Zhang Ziyao shook, and came back to his senses——

He rolled up his sleeves and got out of the sedan chair, and saw the familiar stone lion in front of Prince Rui's Mansion—he remembered that when he first came to the gate of Prince Rui's Mansion, he had studied it carefully, and firmly believed that this lion was the work of the descendant of the Earth Crack. He told Zhu Jiuyin about his discovery, and he guessed that when the ghosts and monsters passed by, the lion would turn into a living creature, jump down from the stone platform, and tear them into pieces... At that time, Zhang Ziyao still told Zhu Jiuyin his thoughts , Zhu Jiuyin sneered, disdainfully thinking that he had a big brain.

... At that time, Zhu Jiu's Yinzui was very cheap, it was just a painting.

But at that time, he was indeed alive and kicking.

Zhang Ziyao: "..."

Taking the first step towards the palace, Zhang Ziyao felt a warm, moist bean-sized liquid dripping on the back of his hand. He lowered his head and blinked blankly, and then found that his vision was blurred by the liquid... Zhang Ziyao dazedly raised his hand to wipe his eyes, but found that the liquid in his eyes was getting more and more——

"what happened to you?"

Su Lian, who was following behind, was a little curious at first, but when she bent down to see that the person walking in front was doing well, she began to cry, and suddenly she was at a loss: "You don't want to come to the palace? Then let's go back?...I'll take you back , and then I'll come over by myself."

"No, no..." Zhang Ziyao quickly waved his hands, "I don't want to come."

While the boy was talking, the tears still couldn't stop falling, and Zhang Ziyao himself felt baffled: He didn't like to cry before, even if he cried, it was just a drop or two of crocodile tears, and if there were no more tears, it would be gone... Could it be that it was related to Wang Chuan? Is it related to the pot?So what if he found his soul for him, or dredged the clogged tear hole?

Think about Zhu Jiuyin's annoying place and stop crying, it seems that there is no more.

Thinking about Zhu Jiuyin driving him away before, it could also cause dissatisfaction and negative emotions towards Zhu Jiuyin——

But now Zhang Ziyao suddenly found a new perspective that made him dare not even think about it: it was like the cat that Zhang Ziyao raised when he was a child. He was very clingy to Zhang Ziyao on weekdays. , it never came back.

What if Zhu Jiuyin has the same virtue as that old cat?

"..."

Zhang Ziyao taught him to squat softly on the ground——

Now he was not only thinking about Zhu Jiuyin.

He still misses his cat.

"Did I make you unhappy?" Su Lian frowned, bent down to look at the boy squatting at the stone lion's feet and began to wipe tears for no reason.

"Not at all."

"I'm all crying, isn't it?" Su Lian could pinch a fly between his eyebrows, "Don't lie to me."

"..." Zhang Ziyao wiped his eyes with his sleeves, his eyes and nose were red, he twitched, "I don't know why, but when I saw the stone lion at the door, I wanted to cry for no reason."

Su Lian looked up at the stone lion blankly, then took out the handkerchief Zhang Ziyao used to wipe his nose from his sleeve: "Don't cry."

Zhang Ziyao took the handkerchief, looked at the clean one, wiped away his tears and said, "Yes."

……

Standing outside the courtyard, Zhang Ziyao held a handkerchief and chatted with Su Lian under the strange eyes of the steward of the palace, and at the same time forced himself to calm down—the way to calm down is to stop thinking about the existence of other people in this world. Zhu Jiuyin is such a creature, if he doesn't want to, he doesn't want to cry immediately.

The two of them followed the steward of the palace, and Zhang Ziyao thought for a while: "Niu Niu, when we're done, let's go find Zhu Jiuyin, heaven, earth, mountains and rivers, no matter where his remains are, there should be someone to collect his body - I don't want him to become Become a lonely soul without a master."

——If he becomes a lonely soul without a master, it is probably because he has done too much evil and the underworld dare not accept him.

Su Lian wanted to say this, but turned around to look at the young man who was following Xiaobu, his nose, eyes and ears were all red - only those moist black pupils looked very serious... So when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back into his stomach, Su Lian nodded and said: "Yes, good."

Zhang Ziyao let out a long breath, and silently frowned...

When he came to the front hall, King Rui had been waiting for a long time.

Not seeing each other for several months, Lou Hen was very happy to see Zhang Ziyao again, although seeing his cat-nosed and swollen face, he was also curious about what happened to him--but the prince is the prince, and he will not ask questions like ordinary people, but after a short pause, So he took Zhang Ziyao to talk about the past with him.

During the process, Su Lian just stood aside and watched coldly. When Lou Hen was pulling Zhang Ziyao and would not let go, he silently dragged the boy back from the prince's hand... Lou Hen seemed not to be affected at all, but continued to tell Zhang Ziyao There are some, some are not, I am happy to talk, and Zhang Ziyao insists on staying and hosting a banquet——

Zhang Ziyao originally wanted to refuse, but seeing that it was getting late, and seeing Su Lian who had been with him all night listening to nonsense and doing nothing, he hesitated and agreed.

At the dinner party, we sang and danced, and saw Fuyao's snake demon. The snake demon took advantage of being not human, and the ribbon in his hand was automatic without wind. He opened his mouth and sang with colorful cherry blossoms. Zhang Ziyao rolled his eyes and didn't know how many times. , at the dinner party, the guests were extremely excited——

It is said that Fuyao is the only blooming flower in Dacang this spring.

When Zhang Ziyao heard this, he quickly raised his wine glass and took a sip to suppress his shock. His scalp was numb from nausea, when he heard the corner of the lips of the superior Rui Wang Louhen smiling: "Ziyao sent a greeting card before, saying that he has something to ask the king. What is it?"

At this time, the food and wine are full, the atmosphere is just right, and Lou Hen looks like he has something to say during the banquet.

Zhang Ziyao was stunned for a moment, and from the corner of his eye, he caught sight of Fuyao on the stage as if he heard what they were talking about. The water snake twisted its waist and cast a wink in his direction, as if waiting for a good show... Zhang Ziyao had a headache and pulled Yu Guang looked back at Louhen, and wanted to say that I didn't send you a post, but when the words came to his lips, he suddenly choked back, he suddenly remembered something, turned his head and looked at the person standing behind him, watching his nose, nose, nose, and heart Su Lian...

There was a moment of silence, only to hear the handsome golden-eyed man who stood silently behind Zhang Ziyao from the beginning to the end and said indifferently: "My little master, I want to give the prince a pair of "Plum Under the Singer Dian Cui Picture" back then."

As soon as the words came out, Zhang Ziyao and Lou Hen were both taken aback.

"The painting suddenly became important, so we don't hesitate to redeem it," Su Lian slightly bent down.Neither humble nor overbearing. "I hope the prince will cut his love."
