she won't live to twenty

Tang Zhi once sent dead men to follow Wuming.

If it were another person, it would be absolutely impossible to tell this matter in front of the sixth prince as if nothing had happened.But Wuming not only said it, but also said it very plainly, as if it was just a trivial matter.

Tang Zhi's eyes brightened even more, he smiled and said, "Princess Changning made a good guess."

Wuming cursed secretly in his heart, Tang Zhi's mind was really not normal, he squinted his eyes and asked with a chuckle, "I don't understand, why did you send someone to monitor me, Your Highness?"

Tang Zhi didn't answer, but asked instead: "I don't understand, Changning, why do you want to kill the second lady of the Nan family?"

Nameless: "Because I hate her, I want to kill her."

Tang Zhi laughed a few times: "Because I like you..."

Seeing that the smile in Wuming's eyes had cooled down, Tang Zhi calmly changed his words: "Because I'm interested in you, I asked Qiufen to follow you."

"Why?" Wuming asked.

She hated Nan Xiaoyi, naturally because of Nanyue, she didn't believe that Tang Zhi didn't understand.But why is Tang Zhi interested in her?

"No reason." Tang Zhi shook his head with a smile, and wrote lightly, "Princess Changning, brother, he may have told you that my mind is not normal and I often do things in a disorganized way. But don't worry, since you have discovered him on the autumn equinox, I won't let him follow you again."

"So if he didn't find out, he would continue to monitor me?" Wuming chuckled.

Tang Zhi nodded of course.

The dialogue between the two seemed illogical and dangerous.It really doesn't look like a dialogue between the future emperor and the current princess, but it just happened.

Wuming smiled and shook his head, not planning to say anything more to this lunatic, turned around and was about to return home, but Tang Zhi's voice came from behind: "Changning, I'm going to Luoyan Pagoda to enjoy the snow tomorrow morning, you want to go together ?”

"Of course..." Wuming turned around, subconsciously wanting to refuse, but suddenly changed his words with a smile, "I'm overjoyed."

The direction Tang Zhi came from was the road from Nanfu to Wangfu.

In other words, Tang Zhi came from Nanfu.

The time Wuming left Nan's house and slowly returned to the palace was just enough time for Tang Zhi to go to Nanfu to chat with Nan Boyuan for a while, and then quickly catch up with her.

Sure enough, the next moment, Tang Zhi smiled softly and said, "Then we have an appointment. It just so happens that the little sister from the Nan family will go with me tomorrow."

Wuming cursed countless lunatics in his heart, but his expression didn't change a bit, he nodded with a smile: "Yeah."

After returning home, the nameless smile gradually faded away.

Tang Zhi really stared at her inexplicably.

He sent soldiers to follow her to prevent her from killing Nan Xiaoyi. It can also be explained that the heroine Halo felt that Wuming wanted to kill Nan Xiaoyi, so it affected Tang Zhi's actions and saved Nan Xiaoyi's life.

But now Tang Zhi made a special trip to Nanfu, asked her out, and even asked Nan Yue out, why?

Just like what the master said, Tang Zhi is a lunatic with brain problems, acting without any logic.He was only interested in Wuming, so he wanted to get close to her with great fanfare?

Wuming sat down by the artificial lake, thinking of thinking of some way to solve Tang Zhi directly so as to avoid future troubles?

Although Tang Zhi was always accompanied by a dead man, it would be troublesome to kill him silently, but if he planned carefully...it wasn't impossible, but it might take a lot of time and energy to arrange.

Wuming rubbed the center of his brows and sighed heavily.

That's all, for the time being, let's take it one step at a time. If Tang Zhi is not a threat to her and Nanyue, and it is really just a whim, then she will do nothing.Anyway, two years later, there will be war in Mobei, and the whole world will be in chaos, and without King Weijiu of Zhenbei, there is no telling what will happen then.

But if before that, Tang Zhi had unreasonable thoughts about her, and even about Nan Yue...

Then don't blame her for being ruthless.

Although Wuming thought about not doing anything for the time being, it would be good to let nature take its course.But he went straight to the master's door and knocked on the door.

"Master, how much do you know about Tang Zhi?" Wuming asked.

"Are you still worried that Xiao Liu has bad intentions for you?" Master Stretched and asked.

"Yeah." Nameless nodded.

"Xiao Wuming, you can rest assured. At least for now, it seems that although Xiao Liu is a little crazy, he is still clear about major matters. What's more, with me and Second Master in Beijing, if he really wants to do something to you What, our two masters will stand in front." The master stroked his beard, his eyes narrowed slightly, and continued, "Xiao Liu has four dead men in spring, summer, autumn and winter. The person who followed you earlier should be the autumn equinox." , is good at concealment. Chunlei is good at collecting information, Dongzhi is good at close combat, and he is often guarded by his side in the name of a guard, always equipped with a five-foot long knife. Lixia is the most mysterious, even I have not found out whether he is Who and what are they good at, I only know that this person was probably given to Xiao Liu by the emperor."

A few days ago, the master only knew that the sixth prince had a dead man in his family, so he didn't know about it.But now he was able to tell the basic situation of the four dead men. Obviously, he started to investigate since the day he found out that the sixth prince sent people to follow Wuming.

Wuming's heart warmed slightly, and he changed the subject: "Master, with the Sixth Prince's lunatic personality, can he really manage the world well if he sits in that chair in the future?"

At least in the original text, Tang Zhi didn't have that ability, otherwise he wouldn't end up like a puppet emperor in the end.

Wuming didn't believe that the master couldn't see what kind of person Tang Zhi was in essence.

But the master closed his eyes, shook his head slightly, and repeated as if talking to himself: "I believe that Xiao Liu can handle big things clearly."

He is unwilling and afraid to fight for the throne. Besides believing, what else can he think? !

Wuming stretched out his hand and patted the master's shoulder, without further words, turned and left.

After returning to the room, she took a look at the scarecrow given by the sixth prince.

The grass figure is indeed exquisite and beautiful, and she is also wearing complicated clothes. Even in the era of her previous life, she would be liked by many people.However, Wuming just glanced at it lightly, stripped off the clothes on the grass man, kneaded the dry straw, checked the wooden box again, and after making sure that there were no traps, he threw it into the fire and burned it clean.

……

In the morning, the snow fell all over the ground again.The surface of Changjing Lake is gradually frozen with a thin layer of ice, and when it thaws in spring, you can see the wonderful scene of thousands of carps jumping over the lake.

Wuming first went to Nan's house to pick up Nanyue, the two wandered around the city for a long time, and finally arrived at the Luoyan Pagoda at Sishi.

Wuming could of course take Nanyue to hide in the princess mansion, completely ignore Tang Zhi's invitation, or use other reasons to decline.But Tang Zhi is a lunatic, although Wuming doesn't understand what a lunatic thinks, he can probably guess some of it.

In front of the lunatic, the more he disobeyed him, the more he behaved uniquely, the more likely he would attract his attention.

So Wuming still decided to appear more "obedient", "obedient", and "normal" before he was ready to fall out.

There are thousands of books in Luoyan Pagoda, all kinds of ancient books, scriptures, and martial arts secret books, and the scale is even much larger than the imperial study in the palace.This pagoda alone has supported many idlers in the court, and even Nan Yu is working in the pagoda.

Although Wuming and Nanyue passed by Luoyan Pagoda several times, they only enjoyed the scenery under the pagoda and never entered the pagoda.Since we are going to enter the pagoda to enjoy the snow today, Wuming took Nanyue to look at the books in the pagoda. If there is any peerless book that he likes... I just borrowed it and copied a copy in the name of the sixth prince.

Anyway, you can't lose money.

Nanyue had no interaction with the sixth prince before, and she couldn't help but feel a little nervous when she climbed the tower, holding Wuming's hand tightly.

"If you are afraid later, hide behind me." Wuming said softly, "It's okay."

Nanyue nodded obediently, she was obviously very scared, but she still walked forward and walked side by side with Wuming.

There was a gentle smile in Wuming's eyes.

There are nine floors in the Luoyan Pagoda, and the snow appreciation is naturally at the highest point, but they met Tang Zhi on the sixth floor.He was reading a book with relish, and behind him was a guard with a long knife, probably the dead man Dongzhi.

And in the corner, a cold gaze kept watching everything in the building.

"Your Highness, the two girls are here." The guard Dong Zhi reminded.

Tang Zhi smiled and looked up at the unknown two: "Since we're here, let's go upstairs to enjoy the snow."

He seemed to be in a very good mood today, and even the sinister aura in his smile was a little less.

After saying hello, Tang Zhi knew the time and didn't pester Wuming and Nanyue too much, and walked ahead humming with his hands behind his back.

On the contrary, Winter Solstice was quite enthusiastic, and introduced to the two of them: "The books collected on each floor of Luoyan Pagoda are different, and the ninth floor contains some essays on the rivers and lakes, or a book about romance, which is very suitable for Miss Nan to pass away. Time. The eighth, seventh, and sixth floors are martial arts secret books. The higher the number of floors, the more precious the secret books are. If His Highness Changning is interested, you can borrow a few copies to go back and copy them. The fifth floor is..."

When Nanyue heard Dongzhi say the word "Huabenzi", her eyes lit up.

Nameless smiled and rubbed her head.Although the little girl is keen on reading and studying, she really prefers easy-to-understand and interesting novels to those big books from various schools.

As for Wuming herself, the secret books in the palace are enough for her to read, but she doesn't like the books in the tower.

When they climbed to the eighth floor, they suddenly saw an extremely ordinary figure by the stairs.

The man had an ordinary face, ordinary clothes, and an ordinary figure.But Wuming recognized who he was at a glance—the grand master who broke the Silian crossbow arrow and fended off the assassin's attack with one hand, Wang Tianba, the guest under the throne of Qin.

why is he here

Wuming watched Wang Tianba concentrate on gnawing the martial arts secret book in his hand, and when he didn't even notice the few people who passed him by, he felt that he already had the answer in his heart.

Martial arts masters are obsessed with martial arts, and it is only normal for them to climb and fall in the Wild Goose Pagoda to read cheat books.

But Wuming felt a little uneasy in his heart.

She has lived in the capital for so many years, and she has never met this master. Now when she accompanied the sixth prince to climb the Wild Goose Pagoda, the two met by chance.

Is there such a coincidence in the world?

At this time, Tang Zhi suddenly stopped and bowed silently to Wang Tianba, and Dong Zhi, the guard behind him, also clasped his fists in salute.Wuming thought for a while, and then bowed. Although Nanyue didn't know who the person in front of her was, she still bowed obediently to him.

Wang Tianba ignored Tang Zhi and Wuming, and instead smiled kindly at Nanyue when she bowed down.

Nanyue returned a shallow smile, with dimples on her cheeks, very cute.

Several people walked up to the ninth floor, and then circled outward along the bookcases, and finally reached the outermost window eaves.

The nine-story Luoyan Pagoda, the snow-covered pavilions, the frozen Changjing Lake glowing with a little bit of cold light, the palace with white snow and red walls in the distance, the abandoned suburban arena... the entire snow scene in Changjing City can be seen in a panoramic view.

"Changning, Miss Nan, do you like this snow scene?" Tang Zhi asked softly as he lay down by the window.

Wuming nodded with a smile, and Nanyue also nodded with bright eyes.

Tang Zhi turned his head to look outside, and said no more.

Wuming saw that Nanyue really liked the scenery, so he watched it by the window for a while with her.The two walked around the window eaves several times, until Nanyue's face turned red from the cold, Wuming said goodbye to Tang Zhi, and took Nanyue into the maze-like bookshelves to find books to read.

Tang Zhi didn't say anything, and nodded with a smile, as if he really just asked Wuming and Nanyue to come out to see the snow scene, and now that it's over, that's enough.

Nanyue excitedly chose two books and hugged them in her arms. Wuming found a comfortable place next to the stove, and then sat down on the futon. Nanyue sat in her arms very actively.

"...?"

Wuming was stunned for a moment, then gently pushed Nanyue's shoulder.

Nanyue turned her head to the side, blinking her eyes puzzledly: "Wu Ming, don't you... don't want to hug me?"

So Nanyue felt that Wuming wanted to hug her, so she "consciously" sat in her arms?

Although Wuming habitually holds hands and hugs with Nanyue on weekdays, they often have physical contact, and occasionally they will be inexplicably greedy for Nanyue's body.But Wuming can be sure that she never showed such thoughts when Nanyue was awake, let alone have any dirty thoughts about her through intimate contact!

So in Nanyue's eyes, what kind of image is he that attracts the little girl to throw herself into her arms?Nameless couldn't laugh or cry for a moment.

"Wu Ming... If you don't want to hug me, I, I will sit next to you." Nanyue's voice became weaker, as if she wanted to stand up aggrieved.

Wuming stretched out his hand and pulled her back into his arms: "No need, just hold her like this."

The little girl who came to the door was not hugged in vain.

Wuming wrapped her arms around Nanyue's armpits, causing her to fall into her arms almost unexpectedly.

In winter, Nanyue wore thick clothes, and at this time she was warmed by the stove in the Luoyan Pagoda. She was like a soft ball, very comfortable to hold.Wuming took a deep breath and closed his eyes in enjoyment.

Nanyue nodded obediently in a daze, "...Oh."

"Hey, read a book." Wuming hugged Nanyue tightly, and turned his attention to the book in Nanyue's hand.

Wuming lazily hugs Nanyue while reading a book, but at the same time pays attention to the movements of Tang Zhi who is admiring the snow by the window.

Tang Zhi lay lazily on the window eaves, with one finger stretched out, trembling slightly in the cold wind.

It was constantly windy and snowy outside, snowflakes fell on Tang Zhi's fingers from time to time, and were blown away by the cold wind.

In the wind and snow, a little sparrow seemed not afraid of the cold at all, flying unsteadily in the sky.It happened to see a finger protruding from the Falling Wild Goose Pagoda, and as if curious about what it was, it tilted its head and stopped on the window eaves.

"Chichi." The sparrow called immaturely, and wanted to go up to see what happened, but was a little scared, jumping on the spot hesitantly.

Tang Zhi smiled softly, and said in a low voice, "What a cute and beautiful little guy..."

"Your Highness likes it?" Winter Solstice asked softly.

Tang Zhi nodded, his smile becoming more gentle.

With a movement of Dong Zhi's finger, his internal energy surged, and he hit the little sparrow without a trace.Before the little sparrow fell off the nine-story tower, he reached out to catch it, and handed it carefully to Tang Zhi.

Tang Zhi held the little sparrow in both hands devoutly, with a strange light in his eyes: "It's so cute..."

The little sparrow was lying in his hands, his chest was still heaving slightly, but he just passed out.

But without any warning, Tang Zhi grabbed its neck with one hand.

"Click" and twist off.

Tang Zhi's pious smile didn't even fade away.

He threw the sparrow body out of the tower, still muttering: "It's so beautiful..."

The guard Winter Solstice did not respond.

Wuming, who was reading a book with Nanyue, also had no change in expression, staring at the writing lazily and gently.

She took the initiative to reach out and help Nanyue turn a page of the book.

……

Near noon, Wuming and Nanyue bid farewell to Tang Zhi, who was still watching the snow, holding the books they were about to borrow home.He didn't mean to hold back at all, and nodded with a smile.

Tang Zhi leaned against the window and looked downstairs, until Wuming and Nanyue holding hands got farther and farther away, then he said to the empty tower: "Lixia, what do you think of Changning and Nanyue?"

This time, what he asked was not the autumnal equinox that had been hidden in the dark, nor the winter solstice behind him, but the Lixia, the dead man that was rumored to be bestowed by His Majesty.

No one in the Falling Wild Goose Pagoda responded.

After a few breaths, heavy footsteps came from the tower.

Grandmaster Wang Tianba walked over step by step and knelt down on one knee: "His Royal Highness, His Highness Chang Ning has such martial arts at a young age, which is really a gift. If she devotes herself to studying martial arts, she will be able to catch up within ten years." ... even beyond. As for Miss Nan, she has mediocre aptitude, although she also has internal strength, but it is really... unattractive."

Wang Tianba's smile was extremely simple and honest, Tang Zhi's complexion was as usual, and there was no wave in his eyes.

It seemed like an ordinary exchange between the prince and his own dead.

However, this exchange is destined to be far from ordinary.

Because the dead man turned out to be Wang Tianba, the only master in the Qin Palace, a martial arts master of the first rank of gods.

Who would have thought that such a master would be the dead man bestowed by His Majesty on the Sixth Prince?

It can be seen how much Tang Zhi was favored in front of King Qin!

After hearing Wang Tianba's answer, Tang Zhi shook his head with a helpless smile: "Li Xia, what I'm asking is what do you think of Chang Ning and Nan Yue? It's not about martial arts qualifications."

"That's it..." Wang Tianba got up, scratched his head without the slightest guru demeanor, and said with a naive smile, "Princess Changning is beautiful, but her temper is a bit cold and dull. The girl from the Nan family is so cute Tight, I like it very much, if I have a son, I will definitely let her be my daughter-in-law."

Tang Zhi smiled lightly and said nothing, lowering his eyes to think about something.

Cold tempered?boring?Today's Changning is indeed much quieter than usual, with a completely restrained appearance, and even looks a bit...ordinary.

When Tang Zhi pinched the sparrow to death today, he thought that Wuming would come to ask him why, and then have a weird conversation with him like yesterday.But Chang Ning didn't, she pretended nothing happened, said goodbye to him with a smile, and left with Nan Yue.

Tang Zhi didn't feel disappointed.

A woman as dazzling as Wuming, no matter how restrained her breath is, it is absolutely impossible for her to be ordinary.The more ordinary she is, the more extraordinary she appears.

She is too special, too dazzling.

How could the sun in the sky be able to cover the dazzling light?

As for Nanyue...

Tang Zhi murmured: "Li Xia, you are right, the little girl from the Nan family is really cute and beautiful..."

Wang Tianba nodded with a simple smile, as if he was very happy to be praised by His Highness.

……

After walking away, Wuming suddenly pulled Nanyue closer, and asked in a low voice: "Did His Highness the Sixth Highness give you a wooden box yesterday?"

"Hmm..." Nanyue nodded obediently, and recalled, "Your Highness asked my father to give the things to me, but I didn't open it, so I put the wooden box aside casually. Wuming, what's wrong with the box?"

"The box is nothing, it's just..." Wuming rubbed Nanyue's head fondly, "The Sixth Highness is not a good person. When I'm not around, don't get too close to him."

"En!" Nanyue nodded seriously without asking any further questions.

She had no contact with Tang Zhi in her previous life, she only knew that Tang Zhi was obsessed with Nan Xiaoyi, and even made a lot of morbid behaviors.

Nan Yue didn't participate in the autumn hunt in her last life, so she naturally didn't know why Tang Zhi fell in love with Nan Xiaoyi.All she knew was that in this life, Tang Zhi lost interest in Nan Xiaoyi for some reason, and instead asked her out to play with the excuse of being anonymous, and even gave her a gift.

Nanyue suddenly opened her eyes wide in surprise—the sixth prince doesn't like her, does he?

Nanyue became inexplicably flustered. She grabbed Wuming's arm and said anxiously, "Wuming... Sister Wuming, I will burn the gift His Highness gave me as soon as I get home!"

Although Wuming didn't know why Nanyue's reaction was so sudden, he nodded in satisfaction and hugged Nanyue's shoulders tightly: "That's how it should be!"

……

Once back to the palace, Wuming went straight to the master and told him about meeting Wang Tianba in Luoyan Pagoda today.

"Xiao Wuming, do you think meeting Wang Tianba today...was deliberately arranged by Xiao Liu?" The master frowned, rubbing the stubble on his face.

Wuming nodded: "I have been to Luoyan Pagoda several times before, but I have never met him. This time I met Tang Zhi during my trip. It is really a coincidence."

"But Xiao Liu wants you to meet Wang Tianba, why?"

"Master, you said that Tang Zhi is a lunatic, and a lunatic does things without purpose."

"Makes sense."

Wuming clasped his head in both hands, slumped down on the reclining chair lazily, and suddenly asked: "Master, tell me, could Wang Tianba be the mysterious dead man named Lixia?"

The master's fingers stroking the stubble froze suddenly, his brows were tightly furrowed, and he said very slowly: "According to common sense, it's impossible."

Wang Tianba is a master of martial arts of a generation, and a guest minister who is deeply respected by His Majesty, how could he be a dead soldier of the prince's family?In anyone's eyes, this is impossible.

To use an analogy, it’s like old Tang, a neighbor’s hungry and emaciated alcoholic, who was hungry and thin, and suddenly boasted that he was actually the prince of the court one day. Who would believe that?

So in common sense, this is absolutely impossible.

But outside of common sense, it is impossible to say.After all, Tang Zhi is a lunatic, and the current king of Qin not only doesn't know that his son's brain is abnormal, but also dotes on this young son who is mentally ill.
