In spring, the capital city is filled with warm sunshine, gentle breeze, bustling streets and alleys, and full of vitality.
Bai Linglong wanted to eat hotpot early in the morning. The thought of the hot, spicy and delicious food made her mouth water. The boiling red oil, the tender meat and the juicy vegetables made her salivate.
She quickly called over her personal maids Wanqing, Xiaocui, Jingzhu, Lingyue, Minxiu, Huiqiao and Anlan.
He also called for the guards Wang Meng, Zhao Gang, Li Fei, and Sun Yang, and brought four lively and lovely children - Dabao Nanjinxuan, Erbao Nanjinyi, Sanbao Nanjinxuan, and Sibao Nanjinyao, and headed towards his own Linglong Hotpot Restaurant in the capital.
The streets are bustling with people, and the sounds of hawking, talking and laughing blend into a cheerful market movement.
Dabao Nanjinxuan, with eyes wide open, excitedly pointed at the street jugglers and said loudly: "Mother, look, the one swallowing the sword is amazing!"
Erbao Nan Jinyi was attracted by the sweet smell coming from the cake shop. He tugged at Bai Linglong's clothes and said coquettishly, "Mother, I want to eat that osmanthus cake. It smells so good."
Bai Linglong had a loving look on her face. She gently touched Nan Jinxuan's head and said with a smile, "It's quite impressive. Let's come back and take a closer look after we finish shopping."
Then he gently responded to Nan Jinyi: "Okay, I'll buy it for you later."
Sanbao Nanjin and Sibao Nanjinyao held hands, looked around curiously, and exclaimed "Wow" from time to time.
Bai Linglong turned to the maids and said, "Don't be polite, just tell me if you like someone. We should be happy every day."
The maids all smiled and nodded, and the atmosphere was warm and harmonious.
As they passed a busy street corner, a loud noise attracted everyone's attention.
A woman who called herself "the God of Fortune" was confronting Wang Yue, the prime minister's wife and the legitimate daughter of the prime minister's mansion, who was dressed in luxurious clothes.
The prime minister's wife put her hands on her hips, her face flushed red, and she angrily cursed: "You, a playboy, cheated me of ten taels of silver last time, and you dare to do the same trick in front of me this time, I will teach you a lesson one day!
I must expose your deceptive deeds once and for all! ”
The divine fortune teller remained calm, shook her sleeves calmly, and said mysteriously, "Madam, I didn't lie to you.
Look at your face, so gray and dull, with black and blue circles under your eyes. Within three days, you will be in danger of bloodshed!
When disaster strikes, and you still don't believe me, don't regret it later! ”
"Pooh!"
The Prime Minister's wife spat and responded with disdain, "Don't be alarmist here, I think you are just thinking about my money!
I was fooled by you last time, but it won’t be so easy to succeed this time! ”
At this time, the little girl with twin ponytails beside the fairy lady shouted crisply: "Fairy lady, have you opened your third eye again?
Tell us quickly what happened. I’m really curious. ”
The people around started to make a fuss.
A burly man shouted at the top of his voice: "Fairy, tell me quickly, what did you see?
Don't be so cautious, everyone is waiting to listen! ”
Li Xiangu opened her eyes suddenly, with a strange look in her eyes, and quickly pulled out a peach wood sword from her waist, pointed it at Wang Yue, and shouted: "My lady, there is a dark energy behind you, and there are wronged spirits entangled with you!
The wronged soul holds a deep grudge and lingers around you every night, waiting for an opportunity to take revenge! ”
Wang Yue was so frightened that her face turned pale in an instant, and she said in a trembling voice: "You... don't talk nonsense!
There are no wronged souls!
You...don't scare me here! ”
The fairy lowered her voice and spoke more and more strangely: "The wronged soul is a little maid, with disheveled hair and blood on her face. At this moment, she is lying on your back, yelling fiercely that you should pay with your life!
You caused her death in vain, how could she let you go so easily!
Your every move is closely watched by her! ”
Wang Yue's legs went weak and she almost fell down. She was secretly terrified:
A few days ago, a servant girl was beaten to death. Could it be that it was really her wronged ghost who came to visit her?
Thinking of this, her body couldn't help but tremble violently.
The fairy was secretly pleased with herself, and continued to exaggerate, saying, "She said that you were cruel and suffered great torture in the underworld, and she will definitely drag you down with her to be buried with you!"
If you don't solve it quickly, this disaster will come soon! ”
The people around were immediately in an uproar.
"Oh, this is too scary. This young lady from the Prime Minister's Mansion has always been arrogant and domineering because of her power. Maybe this is really her retribution."
An old lady shook her head and said with emotion.
"I think this fairy lady has some knowledge. She speaks very convincingly. Maybe she can really understand yin and yang."
A young man touched his chin and guessed with a curious look on his face.
"What secret? I think it's just a trick. Maybe this lady has a grudge and is trying to scare people on purpose."
An uncle curled his lips, looking disapproving.
When the prime minister's wife heard this, she flew into a rage, her face flushed like a ripe tomato, and she shouted, "You damned liar, how dare you curse my daughter? Come on, beat you to death!"
If I don't beat you until you confess, I won't be named Wang! ”
Following her order, several burly servants behind her immediately rushed forward like wolves and tigers.
The little girl who had been following Li Xiangu saw this, her eyes rolled around, and she shouted in a crisp voice: "Xiangu, run!
If you don't run, you'll be caught! ”
The divine fortune teller Li Xiangu moved swiftly, like a nimble monkey. She turned around in an instant, pulling the little girl into the crowd.
Everyone saw that you ran and I chased, and you couldn't escape even if you had wings. The scene was in chaos. The fortune teller Li Xiangu and the little girl dodged left and right in the crowd, and disappeared without a trace in a short while.
Bai Linglong stood aside, watching this farce with great interest, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, her eyes full of smiles.
She couldn't help but sigh that there were so many strange things in this capital city.
After the farce was over, Bai Linglong led everyone to continue walking towards the hot pot restaurant.
Not long after walking, they heard hurried footsteps behind them. Turning back, they saw that it was the divine fortune teller Li Xiangu running back with the little girl.
The little girl ran out of breath, and when she saw Bai Linglong, she seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw and shouted crisply, "Princess, help me!"
The prime minister's wife and her servants came after her. When she saw Li Xiangu, her eyes widened with anger and she shouted, "You liar, you still want to run away?
I tell you, you have three days to leave the capital, otherwise, I will break your legs! ”
The divine fortune-teller knelt down with a plop and said, "Princess, please save us. We are really desperate and have to resort to this desperate measure."
Bai Linglong looked at them, feeling a little reluctant, and said, "Get up, come with us to have a meal first, and we can talk slowly if there is anything."
When the Prime Minister's wife Wang Yue saw Bai Linglong was about to take the little girl, the divine fortune teller, away, she was stunned.
The Prime Minister's wife's face turned pale and blue. She wanted to get angry but was hesitant. She could only glare at the divine fortune teller.
Wang Yue gritted her teeth, her face full of reluctance.
