Zhenlong Gluttonous Feast

Now that the situation in Jianghu is critical, it is reasonable to hurry on the road as soon as possible, but something unexpected happened.

In the early morning of the second day, Meng Youting and I were having dinner downstairs, and we happened to hear a few officials who looked like officials at the next table discussing such a topic without shyness:

"I said, if things go on like this, the yamen will be disbanded, what should we brothers do in the future."

"Hey, as long as there is wine and meat to eat, it doesn't matter where you go."

A person next to him took a sip of his wine and said with a sneer, "Oh, where can we go then? It's not just our brothers who are sad. If the prince doesn't care anymore, the whole border town will collapse."

"There is no way to do this. Ever since the little prince became like that, the prince's thoughts have been devoted to him, so there is no time to care about other things..."

I didn't pay attention at first, but when I heard this, the bamboo chopsticks in my hand couldn't help but stop.

Meng Youting asked suspiciously, "Lin Cheng?!"

I smiled reluctantly, "It's okay, it's just a little..."

A little trance, for some unnecessary memories.

But he seemed to understand something, and immediately got up and went to the next table to ask, "Brother Guancha, what happened recently?"

"Recently?" The man squinted at him, "Your brother isn't a local, is it? It's been a while."

Meng Youting raised his fist in a rare respectful manner, "I would like to hear more about it."

"Before, the little prince went to Miaojiang with a caravan, and he was possessed by an evil spirit after returning. It was very strange. Some people speculated that the young prince was poisoned by the Miao people. King Jingbian originally ordered to keep silent, but It’s been a year in a flash, and there’s no one in the whole border town who doesn’t know about it.”

……Bewitched?Gu poison?

What are you talking about, how could it be that Shangguan Liuli?

Wait, is it Miao Jiang who went with the caravan a year ago? !

Impossible, impossible, when we came back together, he was still in peace, could it be that something happened after we parted...

Too many questions became a mess in my mind, so that I didn't hear what they said at all until Meng Youting came back and suddenly patted me on the shoulder.

I raised my head mechanically, but he was taken aback.

Putting his hand on my forehead, "What's wrong with you, your face is so ugly."

I avoided his hand and said seriously, "Meng Youting, I'm afraid I can't go back to the Central Plains with you right now."

"Is it because of the incident just now?"

He nodded silently.

After a short pause, he replied, "It's okay, and I don't care about a day or two."

I glanced at him gratefully, and continued to immerse myself in my thoughts, extremely worried.

That day, I went to King Jingbian's mansion alone, and troubled the guards in front of the gate to go in and report.

Not long after, an old man who was over sixty years old came out, but he looked extremely tough.

I know that person, he is Qi Su, the chief affairs officer of the palace.

He stood on the spot and looked at me carefully for a long time, before he tentatively asked, "Are you really...Master Lin Teng?"

I subconsciously raised my hand to touch my face, and couldn't help feeling embarrassed, "Qi Bo, it's me."

Perhaps because he had confirmed my voice, his solemn expression eased, and he even showed a bit of excitement, "Master Lin, you've finally come."

...Hey, what is this? !

He led me to the mansion and continued, "There has been no news since the letter was sent, and it was only later that I learned that you had left Beijing. The old slave didn't dare to count on it, but unexpectedly you appeared at this time. "

letter?what letter.

Suddenly recalled that when he was in the capital that day, he did receive a reply letter from Lord Shangguan.And the old prince mentioned in the letter that he asked me to come here to visit Shangguan Liuli.After that, I hurriedly fled the capital to avoid being wanted, and I completely forgot about it.

I was too ashamed to say anything, and inquired in a low voice, "Liuli...how is it?"

The old man didn't answer me directly, he shook his head and only sighed heavily.

As soon as he entered the lobby, Qi Su couldn't help shouting, "Master, master, it's Master Lin Teng! Master is saved, saved!"

After a while, Shangguan Jinghong came out from the back room, walking in a hurry.

When he saw me, his footsteps slowed down a bit.

He scrutinized my face firmly, and hesitantly uttered a prolonged single note, "...you?"

Qi Su quickly explained, "Master, this is Master Lin Teng! It's absolutely true!"

I also feel weird, but I can't tell why.But this time is definitely not the time to weigh this, I stepped forward and bowed to bow, "Wansheng pays homage to Prince Jingbian."

He supported me, "Nephew, please get up!"

"My lord, Wansheng is here to visit Liuli."

Hearing this, Shangguan Jinghong's whole body was shaken, and the face turned away was full of old tears, "My nephew doesn't know something, dog him, dog him..."

The words didn't go on, Qi Su hurriedly said, "Master, why don't we go and see the young master first?"

"Forget it." The old prince waved his hand, as if he had suddenly aged a lot.

"Master Lin, this way please."

In the corridor, Qi Subi made a gesture, showing all the courtesy.

And when I stood in front of the door, my heart suddenly started beating wildly, and countless things like premonitions made me restless.It wasn't until Qi Su reminded me that I settled down and stretched out my hand to push open the concealed pavilion door.

I have been to Liuli's room before, the lighting is very good, and the room is full of jewelry, it is very bright.At this time, the door "squeaked" and I pushed it open, and the scene inside was like a dark room that had been hidden in the snow for many years and no one lived there.The room is extremely dark, and the light that leaks in next to the door frame forms a one-foot space, but it is insulated from the room.

After hesitating for a moment, I still stepped in.

It was daytime now, and the sealed paper window scattered a few linear light spots, and the silhouette of a person could be faintly seen in front of the window.He paused, shaking his messy head up and down, humming something in a low voice, which could barely be heard clearly.

"Youth is fleeting, beauty is hard to change. Youth is fleeting..."

I frowned, and suddenly a rush flowed through my heart, so I froze.

... This, could it be!

Feeling angry, I couldn't help shouting, "Liuli!" and rushed up, twisting him up.

Suddenly, he found that he was extremely thin, and his body was as thin as a skeleton.

Qisu followed me in panic, fearing that something might go wrong.

Looking at it under the dim light, I saw that the face that used to be extremely exquisite had high cheekbones and was full of jaggedness.What didn't match it was the extremely luxurious necklace around his neck.

A collar I'll recognize all my life.

Youth is fleeting, beauty is hard to change.

He glanced at me and murmured, "Lin Cheng, Lin Cheng."

My voice trembled unconsciously, "Liuli, why are you so obsessed... Are you an idiot?"

I thought he saw me, but his gaze passed me to the other side, still moaning.

I looked back at Qisu in amazement, but saw many inexplicable bright things gathered in his eyes.

"Zibo, what the hell is this!"

Qi Su's voice was full of tears, "Master Lin, it's been a year, my young master has been infected with marijuana, this thing is addictive, we have no choice but to watch the young master torture himself all day long..."

"Marijuana? You mean... Ruri?!"

After confirming his nodding affirmatively, I just felt like a thunderbolt.

That Liuli, that extremely elegant Liuli?

How is it possible, no, no.

"Why did it become like this?" Youyou's voice was not as good as his own.

Qi Su replied, "No one knows, the young master has always been proud and arrogant, he only hides everything in his heart, who knows... who knows..."

"Qibo, tell me, can this matter be related to me?"

"Master Lin, I can't hide this from you. After you left that day, the young master told the master that he would follow you to the capital. You know, after all, the master is still in the capital. How could the master agree! Later, the young master diligently He sneaked away, was arrested overnight by the master, and was locked at home all day long, who would have thought that it would become like this soon!"

That's what happened.

I turned my head numbly, and looked at the person in front of me again, my vision became a little blurred.

Liuli Hey, Liuli.
