The Counterfeit Madam Hou - Chapter 39
Liu Qinghuan lay at the door and glanced outwards sneakily.
It seems that Tang Zibo was very relieved about Feng Zi, and arranged for her to monitor herself alone, and there was no one outside.
After listening quietly for a while, she made sure that no one was nearby before she slipped out silently.
It was very dark outside, and there were only two or three candlesticks sparsely lit. The weak candlelight barely allowed Liu Qinghuan to see the layout here. Unlike the secret room she imagined, the overall layout here is no different from an ordinary house, except that it is built underground.
She frowned and looked around. Could it be underground of the Ancestral Hall?
With slight footsteps from near to far, Liu Qinghuan quickly hid in the corner and watched as two Hu Ren dressed up as worshippers walked by. She held her breath and waited for them to walk away before jumping out of the darkness.
Although it is built like a house, there is no clear gate. She remembered Feng Zi taking her around a lot of roads when she came, but it didn’t look that big here, and there should be dark channels and dark rooms.
She frowned. Where was Lingnan’s room? He was able to insist that the map he had given was fake, because he had gone to look for it in person. She had heard rumors from Lingnan’s hands earlier, and now it seems true.
She must find the painting.
But did Lingnan King bring the painting to Changan? Chang An had Xue Mu and Aes staring at each other and took the painting on her body with too much aim. She didn’t think he would take the risk. So he just finished drawing the map and just brought the map with him? The map can be carried personally, which is indeed much easier to hide than the painting, but it is more difficult for her to get the map.
Liu Qinghuan was analyzing in his heart while groping for the direction in which the Lingnan king lived.
I don’t know what happened, a cold arrow suddenly shot from the left. Liu Qinghuan’s eyes narrowed, and a dark arrow escaped from the side by side.
No, I’m afraid there’s a hidden weapon here.
She pursed her lips and walked back, but was suddenly illuminated behind her, and Tang Zibo’s voice came over immediately: “Girl Cuckoo, do not sleep at night, where is this going?”
Liu Qinghuan’s footsteps paused, and he turned around with a smile: “I ate a bit too much at night, so I came out to digestion.”
“That’s it.” Tang Zibo’s smile was very shallow, with a hint of warning, “I forgot to remind the girl before, there are many agencies here secretly, for the sake of the girl’s safety, it is better not to walk around.”
Liu Qinghuan’s heart sank, and it did. Not to mention finding the map, she even had trouble escaping.
The dull rubbing sound suddenly came from the front, sounding like the sound of a heavy doorman pushing. With a candlestick in his hand, King Lingnan came out of the dark door. He stood at the door for a while and walked towards them: “Zibo, what’s the matter?”
Liu Qinghuan sneered at Tang Zibo before he complained, “Nothing, we are just talking about life.”
“Talking about life?” Lingnan Wang Yan smiled. “My king sees you are coming to explore the way.”
Liu Qinghuan calmly said: “I definitely don’t mean it.” She just put it into action.
“Huh.” Lingnan Wang snorted and came to her with a smile, “If you are looking for a map or a map extension, Ben Wang advises you not to bother. Because-” he said here intentionally After a pause, the smile on his face can be as low as possible. “After the king remembered the map he painted, he burned the painting to ashes.”
Liu Qinghuan froze for a moment and looked at him in disbelief.
Wang Lingnan seemed very satisfied with her surprised expression and looked at her with determination: “No matter whether it is a painting or a map, it may be snatched. Only in the mind of the king, is the most secure way. No one can do it for you. Find this map again. “
Liu Qinghuan turned back from his initial surprise, which was indeed like what Lingnan King would do.
“My King advises you to think about the map you are on now. If you still can’t remember tomorrow morning, don’t blame your King for being ruthless.” Lingnan King went back after he said, “Send a few more people to stare at the door . “
“Yes.” Tang Zibo replied respectfully and turned to see Liu Qinghuan. “Girl Cuckoo, I’ll take you back to your room.”
Liu Qinghuan pursed his lips and followed him without a word.
When returning to her previous room, Feng Zi slept happily on the ground. Tang Zibo unlocked the acupuncture points on her body and saw that she still did not respond, so she went back to see Liu Qinghuan. Liu Qinghuan said innocently: “I only ordered her hole while she was not prepared. As for why she didn’t wake up, I didn’t know.”
Tang Zibo frowned, thinking, and stood up from the ground: “Girl Cuckoo, you still don’t want to run away from here. If you can’t hand in the map tomorrow morning, the righteous father will not be kind to you.”
Liu Qing laughed and said, “Thank you for reminding me.”
Tang Zibo narrowed his eyes and didn’t talk to her any more. He called for Fengzi to be removed and left five guards at the door. When you left, don’t forget to explain: “No fly can come out of it!”
“Yes!” The guards responded with trembling spirits.
But in the middle of the night, it started to languish.
The people in the room have been very peaceful at this hour, silent and silent as if they didn’t exist. The surroundings were so drowsy that a guard yawned and patted the shoulder of the person next to him: “Let’s take turns, I’ll take a moment.”
The people next to him nodded, so two of the five guards snore, and three of them chatted with each other, dispelling the doze.
A dark-smelling thing slowly crawled out of the door, and Yuji shook the tentacles. A guard stared at it intently, and the person beside him punched him and asked, “What are you looking at?”
The man pointed at the little thing on the ground and wondered, “What is that? Cockroach?”
The people next to me studied for a while, and nodded hesitantly: “It seems to be.” He paused, and said something like he thought of it, “I was commanded above, a fly cannot be released, such a big cockroach seems Let alone let it go. “
The man agreed with the tunnel: “It makes sense.” He lifted his right foot and was about to execute the command from above, and the little thing on the ground flew up sharply, followed by a “Boom!”
Three guards fell in the smoke.
The little thing fluttered a few wings and flew away in a buzzing.
The two hiccups’ guards were awakened by this movement, and panicked when they saw the person who had fallen to the ground. He rushed into the room and looked at it quickly. Liu Qinghuan was lying on the bed fortunately, and then he was relieved.
Back at the door, the slap slapped and slapped the three sleeping people, which woke people up. After this scare just now, everyone’s doze was awake, and their hands were shaking in front of the door.
When Lingnan King and Tang Zibo came together, they saw such a scene of vigor. Tang Zibo glanced at the five of them and asked, “What suspicious thing happened last night?”
“No!” The five replied firmly and unanimously.
Tang Zibo said nothing and walked into the room with Lingnan King.
Liu Qinghuan slept soundly in bed.
King Lingnan looked at her for a while, and said, “Let them hit a basin of ice water and wake people up.”
Liu Qinghuan yawned and sat up from the bed: “Master Wang, son Tang, good morning.”
Tang Zibo: “…”
Wang Lingnan snorted and went to the couch and sat down: “It’s already dawning, I hope you already remember what the map looks like.”
Liu Qinghuan said: “It seems that I remember a lot more than yesterday.”
King Lingnan looked at her: “It’s not good for you to delay time, because I don’t have much patience.”
Liu Qinghuan thought deeply.
An unfamiliar girl-in-law took the four treasures of the study and walked in from the outside. Liu Qinghuan blinked, and it seemed that Feng Zi had not yet woken up. The little thing was facing the qi released by Fengzi, but after accumulating the essence of a month, she had to sleep at least until noon today.
The guards at the door were more fortunate, because they smelled the essence after dilution.
“Draw it.” Lingnan Wang commanded expressionlessly.
Liu Qinghuan pursed his lips and didn’t even allow him to eat a bite. She went to the book case, picked up the pen, put it down, picked it up, and put it down again.
King Lingnan urged impatiently: “Did your hemorrhoids grow on your hands?”
Liu Qinghuan: “…”
She picked up the pen for the last time, waving her long sleeves and dancing on the paper. After a masterpiece was completed, Liu Qinghuan took the blank paper with satisfaction and put it to his mouth to blow.
Wang Lingnan stood up, grabbed the paper in her hand, stared at the map above for a while, then looked at Liu Qinghuan: “The map is best to be true, otherwise the king will let you You cannot survive, you cannot die. “
Liu Qinghuan was successfully intimidated, and Zhitian swears: “I use my personality to guarantee that this map is absolutely true.”
Lingnan Wang gave a sneer, ignoring the messy meaning of her words, and said directly to Tang Zibo, “You must be optimistic about people, you must not let her slip.”
Tang Zibo assured: “Righteous father, don’t worry, she can’t escape.”
Lingnan King nodded and went out with the map in his hand.
Changan City, who had slept for a night, had awoken, and the people shuttled bustling bustling streets.
A masked worship fire priest led a team of men and horses, who did not know where to come from. He turned west in the woods outside the city, and finally stopped in front of a stone monument. The stele was half-buried obliquely in the soil. The stone body had been cracked by wind and rain. There were many cracks, and weeds grew in the cracks.
“The priest is here.” One person in the procession suddenly said, the priest waved his hand, and everyone giggled out a shovel from the robe and dug up near the stone monument.
The Lingnan king was among the servants, and he took a shovel to dig with everyone. He glanced down at the dirt on the ground and frowned slightly.
The soil seems to have just been refurbished.
After a while, I only heard the sound of a clang, which seemed to be the sound of a metal impact. Holding a shovel, he shouted in surprise, “Priest, there is something here!”
Wang Lingnan walked quickly, and everyone dug up around here. Soon, the top of a box appeared in the soil, and the leading priest couldn’t wait to open the box, empty.
The excited crowd was suddenly splashed with cold water, and Lingnan King’s brow frowned suddenly.
“Priest, a box was dug here too!” Another surprise came from the side. The Lingnan king quickly walked over and did not wait for the priest to open the box by himself.
This time the box is no longer empty, there is a piece of paper in it.
He opened the note with a sentence on it-love and non-attack, the greatest treasure in the world is love!
He almost grasped the paper on his hand into powder!
He took a deep breath and suddenly understood something: “Cuckoo the liar! She and Xue Mu colluded!” 2k novel reading network
