Chapter 221: The four swordsmen were at a loss, and he was the only villain left!
Lu Yao led Jiang Yingcheng all the way into the house.
The flame from the tinderbox illuminated the faces of the people waiting in the room and almost burned Lu Yao's hand.
"Hmm..."
As soon as he said this, he immediately recalled the unusual identities of the people in this room. Lu Yao closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and swallowed the billions of dirty words that were about to come out of his mouth.
"Why don't you say anything?!"
It's so scary, okay?!
The ruler of Qiguang State and his men all looked innocent.
The space in this yard is limited. If they want to find a place to talk, they can only do so in this room.
Is this even worth thinking about?!
“…”
Lu Yao endured the humiliation and could only change the subject. He handed over the jade pendant in his hand and said, "Master Wu, can you take a look?"
Wu Leyong has an excellent memory and can often remember all the details of something he sees in a very short time. Once he has looked at this jade pendant, it will not be difficult for him to replicate another identical one.
Wu Leyong, who had been waiting nearby, reached out and took it.
[Oh my, Uncle Wu’s identity has changed from “a man with the surname Wu” to “Master Wu” in one leap, achieving a triple jump in life easily. Congratulations!!]
Wu Leyong took the jade pendant and froze in his tracks.
Lu Yao couldn't catch his breath and started coughing violently.
Jiang Yingcheng was unable to see the entire incident and could only guess based on his feelings: [Wow, Uncle Lu coughed saliva onto Uncle Wu's hand, Uncle Wu is not happy!]
Lu Yao suddenly suppressed the cough in his throat, and his face turned red.
My dear, please stop talking!
Wu Leyong withdrew his hand as usual and carefully examined the jade pendant in front of him.
Lu Yao simply handed him the lighter and said, "Master, I can't be out for too long."
Shaoxuan's suspicious nature was evident from the series of tests he had just conducted. If he stayed out for too long, there was no guarantee that the other party would not want to come over and investigate in person.
Wu Leyong hummed softly, looking focused.
Although a whole piece of mutton-fat white jade is rare, the most valuable part of this jade pendant is the carving on it.
The tail feathers of the phoenix are clearly visible, and the angles of the carving are very delicate. If the strong midday sunlight shines directly on it, it will reflect beautiful star-like spots of light.
Lu Yao looked nervous: "How?"
After a while, Wu Leyong handed the jade pendant back: "Okay."
As soon as the Dinghai Shenzhen fell, several voices of relief were heard in the house.
Lu Yao turned around and glanced at the kings in the corner with a complicated expression, his face full of indescribable emotions.
What do you do with the relaxation?
Time was running out, so Lu Yao said nothing. He just patted Wu Leyong on the shoulder. His attitude was completely different from when he seconded her to Mengzhou. He said, "Thank you."
Before leaving, he suddenly seemed to have thought of something and turned back to warn: "Don't eavesdrop around the wall anymore!"
The guilty expressions of the people in the room were not very obvious in the dim light, only the young man's inner voice was particularly clear -
[Cheng Cheng was wrong, I will do it again next time!!]
The people in that yard have been replaced by their people, and Shaoxuan is the only villain left in the whole room. What is there to be afraid of? !
The young man's voice is sonorous and powerful: [The four swordsmen are at a loss, and he is the only villain left! ]
Lu Yao: “…”
Okay, okay.
…
About half an hour later, there was another knock on the courtyard door.
The people patrolling the courtyard were startled, and after looking at each other, Lu Yao stepped forward to open the door.
The King of Danxia was wearing a black robe with a wide hood that covered his entire face, making him look like a bandit who was ready to rob a prisoner.
"Has anyone arrived?" asked the King of Danxia as he entered the room.
Lu Yao lowered his voice: "It's inside."
The King of Danxia paused, turned around with a suspicious look in his eyes, "What's wrong with your voice?"
Lu Yao silently rolled his eyes in his heart, secretly sighing that these two people were really too cautious.
He raised his hand and pointed to the yard where the young man lived: "A family of grandparents moved in across the street."
The King of Danxia relaxed his guard at the words "grandfather and grandson", nodded coldly, and walked straight into the house.
Lu Yao looked towards the wall as if he had sensed something, and sure enough, he found a few pairs of eyes shining brightly in a familiar position.
Seeing Lu Yao turned around, he winked at him slyly, looking very righteous.
【Just watch! Cheng Cheng, just watch! 】
Lu Yao: “…”
He said nothing, turned around without worrying about what was happening, and approached the room with the others.
The King of Danxia State took off his hoodie and was not surprised by Shaoxuan's makeup. He said straight to the point, "I heard that your identity in the palace is no longer valid?"
"It's no problem. Concubine Hui should not have been seen by the Third Prince, and the maid who witnessed it also silenced herself the moment she was imprisoned," Shao Xuan bowed respectfully and said, "Now Concubine Hui has given me a new identity, and I will still have a chance to meet the King of Zhujin Kingdom."
On that day, Concubine Hui had been hiding in the shadows created by the pile of stones, and he blocked the entrance of the cave tightly. Only when the person came very close could he see her face clearly. Although he did not pay attention to the situation around him at that time, looking at the panic-stricken look of the Third Prince, he did not seem to be a brave man.
Moreover, Emperor Mingze had not dealt with Concubine Hui for such a long time, and the result was self-evident.
The Danxia King's lips curled up in a sarcastic arc, and he slowly took out a porcelain bottle from his sleeve: "Three drops can make a person incurable from now on."
Having said that, she no longer cared about Shaoxuan's reaction and went straight to the bed to take a nap with her eyes closed.
The patrols in the capital have been too strict recently, so they have to do a full show.
——Since the two of them have come here today under the guise of a private meeting, they should not leave too quickly.
Shaoxuan also took a short nap in his seat.
An hour later.
Zhong Chengwang, who was eavesdropping on the roof, quickly disappeared into the darkness. A moment later, the door that had been closed for a whole hour was finally pushed open slowly from the inside with a creaky sound.
Danxia Guoguo walked out of the room in the same manner as he entered before. His wide hood covered his entire face tightly, and his true appearance could not be seen at all.
Jiang Yingcheng, who was peeking from behind the wall, bit her lip.
[Several uncles are here, what good candidates for witnesses~]
[It is such a shame to let them just watch a show and leave without knowing what is going on! ]
She sees it very clearly.
Zhu Jinguo and their Da Rui are not on good terms, and now they are just doing this to maintain superficial peace. If they were the only ones to say that it was the King of Danxia who wanted to drug the King of Zhu Jinguo, the other party might not believe it.
But if so many uncles could testify that they had seen the King of Danxia Kingdom having a suspicious meeting with someone here, then the situation would be different!
[I want to be my father's most windproof little cotton-padded jacket! ! ]
Lu Chen on the other side of the wall and Lu Chen on this side of the wall felt their scalps tighten, and a bad premonition instantly spread throughout their bodies.
Their thoughts at this moment were surprisingly consistent - stop her!
Although the young man's idea is good, she must not take any risk!
However--
A round head suddenly popped out from the eaves. Jiang Yingcheng stepped on the shoulders of the King of Qiguang Kingdom, and waved to the King of Danxia Kingdom, "Hello, uncle!"
"We are new neighbors who moved in next door to your house today. Can we come visit you?!"
Lu Yao: “…”
