Chapter Sixteen
One step late, Bao Xi'an was destroyed and his soul disappeared. This surprised Wu Mian and Gui Bugui. He originally thought he was a little bit of a small person to take revenge. Now it seems that this matter is a bit simple.
Because Bao Xi'an was unclear about this matter, Wu Mian could not leave easily. At that moment, they found an inn in the capital and stayed in. When did they catch the mastermind behind the scenes and ensure that the women of the Shao family were not in danger, they could return to the valley.
After staying in the inn, Wu Mian, Gui Bugui, began to think about what to do next. But now there is no clue in everything, so he can only wait for the person behind the scenes to take action and see what he wants to do.
The inn they stayed in double-handedly as a business in the wine shop, and the Jiangnan land focused on food. That night, they ate supper in the inn and returned to Jinling City again. Both monsters were very excited. They drank two more jars of wine during dinner. After getting drunk, they were supported by Gui Bugui and returned to the room to rest.
Gui Bugui booked the entire inn, and there was no need to worry about affecting others. After throwing the two monsters into the room, the old guy came to the yard and looked at Wu Mian sitting in front of the stone bench. Then he sat in front of the white-haired man with a smile, and said, "The last time we appeared in Jinling together, it was the time when the former migrated south. Unexpectedly, more than two hundred years later, the dynasties changed three times..."
When I talked about this, Gui Bugui paused.
Then he continued, originally we lived in a big house in Jinling City, who would have thought that when we came back, we would stay in the inn…”
"Old guy, do you want to squeeze with those orphans and widows?" Wu Mian glanced at the old guy and continued, "About Guangxiao, and Bao Xi'an would not leave if he didn't understand..."
Wu Mian had just said halfway, suddenly closed her mouth, and then turned her head with Gui Bugui to look at the entrance of the inn outside. At this time, a sound of footsteps sounded outside. Then a familiar voice sounded: "It's so late that Yunwen has to disturb the two immortals' rest. It's a sin..."
When he finished speaking, two figures walked in from outside. The leader was Zhu Yunwen, the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty, and the other was Yang Jun, the Jinyiwei who was seriously injured and had not yet recovered. He escorted Zhu Yunwen to appear in the inn.
"If you don't go to rest, what are you doing here?" After seeing the appearance of the prince-master and servant, Wu Mian frowned slightly, and then continued, is it the emperor who wants us to issue an imperial edict, or is there something big of a deal that you, the prince-master, ran away in person?"
"I can't think of you two immortals, come and have a look?" Zhu Yunwen laughed softly, then continued, "I can't sleep in the palace at night, and I want to find someone to chat. After thinking about it, the four of you are the most suitable... What about Bai Wuqiu and Ren Sanxian? They shouldn't sleep so early, right?"
"Your Highness the Crown Prince, there are not ten thousand or eight thousand people in the palace. If you can't sleep at night, come to see us both?" Gui Bugui laughed and continued, "Old man, guess... Is Guangxiao already informed? He hid in the prince's mansion?"
Zhu Yunwen's heart trembled when he said this. He also calculated that Monk Guangxiao had been hiding in the uncle's palace. Zhu Yunwen had his own spy in each palace. As long as Monk Guangxiao appeared in that palace, Zhu Yunwen would receive a message from Feige... The emperor's grandson laughed and said, "I'm going to hide it from Mr. Gui, Yunwen is really here to chat with you this time. Thanks to your care along the way, I didn't even say the word "Thank you."
When he said this, Zhu Yunwen paused, then glanced at Wu Mian who seemed to have not seen him come in. Then he continued: "During the daytime, he heard that a house in the capital was in a fire, and the owner of the house was taken out by someone to die. The matter has been delivered to me. I heard that the people watching the fun on the spot said that it was done by four people. I wonder if Mr. Gui, do you know?"
Gui Bugui smiled and replied without hesitation: "The dead body was brought out from the sea of fire, but he was dead at that time. Because it was involved in another major event, I brought the dead body out to check... But unfortunately, I still found nothing in the end."
"Another big thing?" Zhu Yunwen smiled slightly and continued, "Did you talk about the Shao family in Beijing? Yunwen heard that their ladies were crazy. It seems that you and the others went to Shao Mansion today..."
"Why do you have to ask about things outside when you are sitting in the palace?" At this time, Wu Mian spoke again.
After a cold look at the crown prince, he continued, "You know the relationship between the Shao family in Jinling and me... Zhu Yunwen, don't you want to use them to threaten me?"
"Rareless! How dare you talk to His Royal Highness the Emperor?" At this time, Yang Jun, who was standing behind Zhu Yunwen, suddenly roared, and then he took a step forward and stood in front of the prince. Looking at Wu Mian, Gui Bugui continued, "Your Highness is the crown prince of a country. Do you dare to be so rude..."
"Master Yang Qi, your brocade hug is very bright." At this time, Gui Bugui saw that Yang Jun's official uniform should no longer be a small general flag. This time he lived and died with Zhu Yunwen, and the crown prince would not have any expression. The Jinyiwei should have been promoted to several levels... Seeing Yang Jun still talking, Zhu Yunwen looked at his guard with a smile and said, "Thousand Houses, these are all immortals who are not born. You should not be rude to the immortals... Wu Mian Xian Qi, you misunderstood Yunwen in this matter. You are right, I do know the relationship between the Shao family and you in Nanjing. But I have never thought about using the blood of the Shao family to threaten you... This time I come, I have another private matter..."
When he said this, Zhu Yunwen took out a small, hot-lacquered envelope from his arms and handed it to Gui Bugui's hand, and then said, "It's my birth date. I heard that Miss Nanhua, Shao's family, is at the age of marriage. If you don't dislike me, please marry Miss Nanhua as your wife..."
"You want to marry Shao Nanhua..." When he heard this, Wu Mian suddenly laughed, then looked at the crown prince and continued, "Do you know the rules of choosing a husband in the Shao family? His Royal Highness, the first sentence is not appropriate, right? You are the crown prince of a country, will you go to the Shao family to be your son-in-law? The child born must be surnamed Shao, will your father and emperor agree?"
Zhu Yunwen really didn't know these things. He glanced at Yang Jun behind him in a daze. The crown prince had heard of several secrets of the Shao family before, but they were all related to Wu Mian. Now he regretted it a little, why didn't he ask about the Shao family in Jinling carefully?
Although Zhu Yunwen's expression was as if nothing had happened, he knew in his heart that Miss Nanhua from the Shao family was not lucky to marry him this time.
At this time, Gui Bugui laughed and said to Zhu Yunwen: "Your Highness, there are ways to win people's hearts in the world. You don't have to rely on marriage... And I have another thing, please pay attention to your highness. The Shao family has another exception. Their son-in-law who married into their family doesn't have a long life. You are the crown prince of a country, and your life is always important..."
When he said this, the old guy smiled again, looked at the white-haired man, and continued, "There is another thing that I want to ask Your Highness... Bao Xi'an, who was burned to death in the afternoon, would also ask Your Highness to find out the origin of this person. The attempt to kill poisoning in Xuanhua Mansion might have something to do with him..."
