Chapter 236 Bugs in the Palace
At daybreak, Jun Lin returned to the palace to report, but when Wu Shi woke up, she was nowhere to be found.
The man sat on the edge of the bed, his eyes falling on the roses on the windowsill.
Pink and yellow roses bloomed beautifully on the same plant, which were grafted by Junlin himself.
Bud grafting alone is not enough. If you want better survival and growth, you must have careful care.
It should not be exposed to water on the first day of injury, nor should it be moved to the sun for exposure. The temperature difference should be controlled, and the time for grafting should be appropriate. Junlin will take care of it until the grafting point heals and buds grow, and the basic survival risk disappears, and then it will be handed over to Wushi for care.
Wu Shi was of a calm disposition, his world being so empty that it consisted only of the sun, moon, stars, flowers, plants and trees. He loved flowers, no matter what variety or quality, the elegant snow lotus or the quiet Clivia, the all-encompassing peony or the poisonous poppy, all would wither and be crushed into dust after their gorgeous blooming.
Just like a person's life.
He watched the clouds roll in and out, taking care of the huge spiritual garden by himself, and he didn't think there was anything wrong at first. But when a new gardener came to the garden, he saw the person's slender figure everywhere he looked, and he suddenly realized that the previous person was lonely.
One person is lonely, two people are perfect.
His fingers touched the jade cicada at her neck, and his eyes became dark.
With Chunhua's intelligence, how could she not know what a treasure the Jade cicada was? She found it and gave it to herself without any hesitation, probably just because of what Sui Ri said when she was in unbearable pain, saying that the Jade cicada was a magic weapon.
He accepted this love now, just like the pain of the curse when he didn't have the jade cicada should accompany him for the rest of his life, and accepting it might be forever.
In fact, Wu Shi’s idea was right. It could break the curse that even Wu Shi was helpless against. Could the jade cicada that was worshipped as a treasure in the ancestral hall in Nanjiang be an ordinary object?
Of course not.
Jun Lin is never willing to give up the treasures she has obtained. She is like a giant dragon that sits in a cave and guards gold, silver and treasures. Unless the person has corresponding value, she will be willing to give it away generously.
She was slowly invading Wushi's life. When he had no goals, she would find them for him. When he was bored, she would find fun for him. When he was in unbearable pain, she would find ways to heal him. Inch by inch, she was silently pulling Wushi to her side.
She is familiar with breaking into people's homes and prying into corners of walls.
She wanted to bring all the talented people from foreign lands to Dajing, so that when the peace period ended, she would send troops to swallow up the four countries in one fell swoop.
Jun Lin, who had already returned to the palace, squatted down like a wooden man to wipe the back of the queen's hand. She thought carefully in her mind that the only thing left to do now was to find out the military strength in southern Xinjiang. When could she find a chance to go to the military camp and take a look?
Just as she was thinking about it, the King of Nanjiang slammed the door and came in. The man was furious and smashed the utensils in the room all over the floor.
"What a waste! The Hidden Moon Secret Array has been guarding the ancestral hall for decades without any problems, how could it be broken without anyone noticing?!"
Jun Lin's eyelids drooped and he remained silent.
This was thanks to Wu Shi, the leader of the Yin Yang Sect, who took the trouble to personally come down and tell her how to crack the code.
No one is more proficient in the formation based on Yin Yang and the Five Elements than Wu Shi.
The King of Southern Xinjiang lifted the Queen's veil and saw that familiar face, and his anger instantly disappeared.
"He died, the sandalwood shaft was lost, the sacrificial child disappeared, Tuantuan disappeared, the wedding was broken up, and the ancestral hall was destroyed..."
The man muttered dully: "How could Southern Xinjiang have come to this point in such a short period of time..."
He almost fell down on the dragon throne, stretched out his arms for comfort like a lost child, and gently put his arms around the queen's shoulders.
"Chunhua, you should go out of the palace to visit your relatives in the next two days, and let the Queen accompany me for a few days."
The successive blows almost swallowed the small boat under the waves, and only a piece of driftwood supported it to survive.
Jun Lin bowed his head: "I obey your orders."
Her eyes darkened as she retreated.
I'm afraid I won't be here for long. After making preparations in the next two days, it's time to go back home.
The things the King of Southern Xinjiang described happened at closely spaced times. If you think about it carefully, they all happened after Chunhua was selected as a maid. Although she was cleared of suspicion every time, the successive heavy blows made it impossible for the King of Southern Xinjiang to keep this time bomb with him.
Regardless of whether Chunhua is the criminal or not, they would rather kill three thousand people by mistake than let one go.
What's more, he was unable to bear the emperor's anger, and Qingqing's body could not be maintained even with the help of insects.
Jun Lin returned to his room to pack his bags and was about to go back to his hometown to visit his relatives under the envious gazes of the palace maids.
How could there be any chance to visit relatives after entering the palace? Chunhua is so lucky.
Jun Lin was walking along the path of the imperial palace with a bag on one shoulder and a dull look on his face, when he unexpectedly ran into Wu Shi who was coming with an umbrella.
Wu Shi looked at her outfit and paused. His clear voice was like a stream flowing over rocks: "Where are you going?"
"Your Majesty gave me leave and allowed me to go back home to visit my relatives."
Wu Shi's fingers holding the umbrella handle tightened slightly: "Where is my hometown?"
Anyway, Chunhua's family has moved to Jingguo now, so she quickly reported Chunhua's original address.
Wu Shi was silent for a moment, then spoke again in a slightly heavier tone: "You know that's not what I'm asking."
Jun Lin: “…”
Wu Shi knew that she was not the real Chunhua, so she was naturally asking about Xiaobao's address. Junlin couldn't say that he came to the Jing Palace to find me, right? Otherwise, she made up another identity for herself? The secret guard of Emperor Jing? It seemed pretty good!
Seeing that she remained silent, the two of them were in a stalemate for a moment.
Can you expect Jun Lin to soften his stubborn temper?
Of course not.
In the end, Wu Shi spoke first and changed the subject to lighten the mood between the two of them: "I'm here to say goodbye to you."
This time it was Jun Lin who was stunned: "Where are we going?"
Wu Shi smiled faintly: "Why, you don't want to tell me where you're going, but now you ask me where I'm going?"
The teasing words made her hold her burden tightly, and she plucked up her courage: "Are you going to tell me or not?"
Wu Shicun stepped closer, held the umbrella above her head, and walked out of the imperial city with her.
"Go back to Yin Yang's house to check some things."
Yu Chan resolved his curse, and Wu Shi suddenly wanted to go back and settle accounts with his old friends.
Jun Lin asked back, "When will you come back?"
"At least three days later."
Jun Lin: “…”
That's bad. She probably has to go back to Jingguo in the next two days and can't take Wu Shi with her.
Seeing the corners of her mouth drooping, her eyelids drooping, and her expression that said "I'm not happy, I advise you to come back early", Wu Shi's heart was slightly moved, and he called out "Xiaobao."
Hearing the voice, Jun Lin looked up at him.
Wu Shi held the umbrella with one hand and gently touched her head with the other hand, and said as if promising: "I will be back as soon as possible."
Jun Lin Fu Zhi Xin Ling: "I will also come back early and take you to my home as a guest."
Take him back and tie him up. Force me to do my job in the court and don't even think about leaving the house.
The scene was so beautiful that it made her smile.
Wu Shi had no idea of the chaotic and conscienceless thoughts in her mind, he just curled the corners of his lips along with her.
"I remember that."
"Take me to your house when you come back."
Jun Lin was happy: "OK!"
Okay, brother! I was just worried that you wouldn't come!
