Chapter 103 Qing Niangniang
[4 years old: Today is your fourth birthday. I hope you live a long life. ]
"Don't worry, brother! I'm here to help you!"
Chu Chenghong said confidently.
Chu Songjun shifted his gaze and looked at the tall wall.
He climbed up with the help of Wang Youyu.
This time it's faster, quicker and earlier.
He chose the time when the children of noble families had not yet gathered in front of his door.
He landed carefully on the ground.
This time, Chu Songjun changed his target.
Trying to avoid Xie Jinghe.
To be honest, he never expected that Xie Jinghe would help him block that attack.
His distorted and melting facial features echoed in Chu Songjun's mind.
This guy made him a little stressed.
"And how could Wen Shao suddenly escape from prison? This doesn't seem reasonable."
Chu Songjun was a little confused.
"If Wen Shao had escaped outside the Dali Temple, it would be understandable, but now she is inside the Dali Temple, which is considered to be my uncle's own territory. Given my uncle's personality, would he let her escape from his control?"
Could it be that Wen Shao has an accomplice in the Dali Temple?
Chu Songjun couldn't figure it out at all, so he could only keep his doubts to himself.
There were doubts about Wen Shao's escape, but he believed that Chu Bingtian should be able to find out. Otherwise, Chu Bingtian would not have appeared in front of him calmly and peeled sugar-roasted chestnuts for him during the first cycle.
In the last cycle, Wen Shao was able to cause such a huge impact, in large part because Chu Songjun appeared in the Dali Temple, causing a butterfly effect.
“Pah—”
Something crashed to the ground.
Chu Songjun turned his head hesitantly, only to see three children at the entrance of the alley, two of whom were obviously twins. They were tall and strong and surrounded a short person. Judging from their clothes, they were obviously from wealthy families, but for some reason their servants were not with them.
"Brother Song!" the people surrounded in the middle shouted in surprise.
Chu Songjun took a closer look and found that the face looked somewhat familiar.
He thought to himself that he had bad luck as he was caught again while climbing over the wall.
"…Why are you here, Lin Xiaohe?"
Lin Xiaohe picked up the gift from the ground with a smile, rushed over, and regardless of Chu Songjun's resistance, hugged Chu Songjun: "Brother Song! Brother Situ and I have come here specially to celebrate your birthday!"
The Situ brothers he mentioned.
They were also the twins of the Situ family who were once described in the "Ghost Banquet in Changshou Palace". They had boldly challenged the Palace Master of Changshou Palace and were almost eaten by the Palace Master. They were saved by Chu Songjun at the critical moment.
The two brothers, one was named Situ Zheng and the other was named Situ Rong.
When Chu Songjun saw the two brothers, his face instantly turned green.
Nothing more than that.
As soon as the two Situ brothers saw Chu Songjun, they both bowed down and said, "We only wish to worship Brother Song as our eldest brother. In the future, we three brothers only hope to work together to break iron!"
These are two crazy people who want to become sworn brothers with him in Taoyuan.
The Lin family has a good relationship with the Situ family, but the Situ family has a bad relationship with the Chu family.
I don’t know if it was affected by this relationship.
The Situ brothers inexplicably felt a forbidden pleasure when they recognized their eldest brother.
Beicheng District is not close to Xicheng District.
The two Situ brothers were in high spirits again, and clung to Chu Songjun like big dogs.
Lin Xiaohe shouted that he was the second brother, and the Situ brothers were the third and fourth brothers.
Chu Songjun shook his head helplessly.
***
The old woman felt a little cold.
She touched her goose-bumped hands warily.
But she still looked at the man in front of her with a smile on her face: "Don't worry, Leopard Eye will do things for you and will not let you down."
The nobleman in front of her was a middle-aged man with a white face and no beard. He raised his chin slightly, nodded to the old woman, and said in a slightly shrill voice: "If you do it well, there will be a reward."
The old woman escorted the distinguished guest out of the courtyard with a smile on her face.
The temperature seems to be getting lower and lower.
Has it ever been so cold in Xijing this early morning?
A sinister look flashed across the old woman's face.
I’m afraid there’s a mouse in the house!
She reached into her left bag and grasped something.
“Squeak—”
The door was gently pushed open.
The people in the house didn't seem to care about the reputation of the Leopard Eye Gang.
The old woman raised her head viciously, and her hand holding the bell suddenly loosened.
Cold, bone-chilling cold instantly spread throughout the old woman's body.
She was trembling and shaking.
There was a strange sound of teeth chattering in my ears.
In the endless darkness, countless scarlet eyes opened.
Landing on the main seat, the ghosts laughed.
The old woman's wrinkled face struggled to force a flattering smile: "Sir, what is the matter that brings you here?"
Situ Zheng approached Chu Songjun in surprise: "Brother, this person saw through your strength so quickly?"
Situ Rong showed disapproval: "Could it be that he wants to pretend to be humble and obedient, and then attack Big Brother?"
The old woman was so frightened that her face was shaking: "No, no, how could it be! I dare not!"
Situ Rong's face darkened: "It seems that what I said was right! Big brother! Let's ask the third brother to test the power of this evil man!"
He took out a hammer from somewhere and rushed forward to hit him with full of anger!
“——”
A tender hand was raised. Although it was so fragile, it instantly stopped the ferocious Situ Rong.
The old woman looked at the child sitting in the main seat with horror on her face.
He has a pair of eyes with large and dark pupils, which reveal a very weird and gloomy look.
I don’t know when, it was clearly most of the day in Xijing, but at this moment, the light in the house suddenly dimmed.
Chu Songjun leaned forward slightly, and the ghosts behind him who were howling in pain took a step forward...
Straight to the tip of the old woman's nose!
The old woman could even feel the evil energy stirring, just like a strong gale blowing across her face fiercely.
"I'm watching you, don't do anything tricky."
Jueming frowned and twisted the old woman's hands. There seemed to be fine sand hidden between her fingernails, and there was a strong smell of blood.
The old woman's breathing became rapid: "My lord...I..."
How did he know? How did he know?
It was too horrible, driving such an evil ghost, letting the evil ghost intimidate her but not directly tear her into pieces, with such power, how could she act like a child!
It must be some old monster coming out of the mountain!
The evil spirit's negative energy was so terrifying that it penetrated into the old woman's loose bones and froze her entire soul.
The strange child in front of him said in an ambiguous tone: "Xijing, something big is going to happen in Xijing."
"Big? Big thing?"
The old woman licked her lips nervously, her brain frantically searching for information.
"A horrific, subversive, major event."
The old woman's pupils shrank.
She shrank her neck in fear.
Suddenly, her eyes flashed, as if she was reminded of something.
The old woman asked tentatively: "What is the matter that you are here for? The person behind this is..."
She made a cryptic gesture that seemed to be a number.
The old woman's cunning thoughts were about to emerge.
A gray hand suddenly grabbed her and clamped her face!
“Hmm—”
Between the fingers, in the old woman's terrified eyes.
The child with scarlet eyes approached silently, looked down at the old woman, and ordered: "Speak."
The old woman uttered a whine: "Ugh!"
Evildoers need to be punished by evildoers.
This is the truth that Chu Songjun learned from the Palace Master of Changshou Palace.
"The gang is working for the nobles in the palace..."
The old woman's voice was a little trembling.
"A certain lady in the palace has great thoughts and ambitions. The noble who left the palace found the Leopard Eye Gang and made a deal with the villain."
"The lady in the palace is very resourceful. She has already collected all the things and transported them to the palace in carts. The Leopard Eye Gang just helped a little with the transportation..."
"…Sir, this is the list."
Chu Songjun's face turned slightly pale, and his hands were as cold as ice. He took the list from the Situ brothers, which listed countless rare treasures.
The Situ brothers studied the names above blankly, but Lin Xiaohe's brows were already furrowed.
"Human Face Ginseng, Nine-tailed Fox Grass, Heaven's Laughing Head, these medicinal herbs, if they don't have thousands of years of accumulation, they will definitely not be found!"
Lin Xiaohe's eyes dimmed as he turned to look at the silent Chu Songjun.
"Brother Song! These medicinal herbs are not simply used to treat diseases! They have more bizarre uses! And..."
Lin Xiaohe shuddered subconsciously, approached Chu Songjun, grabbed his arm, and whispered: "Each of these items has at least contaminated the lives of dozens of people!"
Chu Songjun glanced at the list and flipped through the roster. There were countless unheard-of medicinal herbs, and some jargon such as "lamb" was also recorded.
The Leopard Eye Gang was definitely not as innocent as the old woman said, and they were just acting as porters.
Those strange names seemed to be soaked in blood at that moment and turned bright red.
Situ Zheng opened his eyes wide, his nostrils flaring with excitement: "As expected of you, Big Brother, you actually discovered such a huge conspiracy!"
Situ Rong said excitedly: "Then we have accomplished a great feat!"
Chu Songjun closed the book.
There was vapor in the air.
His expression was unclear in the dim room: "This behavior does not violate the criminal law of the Xuanyuan Dynasty."
Chu Songjun subconsciously thought of the criminal law he studied every day. This inexplicable association made him purse his lips.
“…It’s terrible.”
Chu Songjun was as pale as a sculpture, and beneath his silent face, his shadow was boiling like an oil pan.
The baby ghost's voice was extremely sharp and piercing, and the mixed ghost cries seemed to penetrate the sky.
It started raining outside the window.
The rain came as expected that day, as usual.
Raindrops fell on the clothes in the hands of the 23rd prince, and the 23rd prince quickly reached out to wipe them off.
Thank you, kind eunuch.
The Twenty-Third Prince subconsciously glanced at the woman in the sedan chair.
The graceful and elegant concubines were hidden behind the thin curtains.
Under the hazy red veil, the Twenty-Third Prince felt that Empress Qing seemed to turn her head and glance at him.
Empress Qing had a beautiful face, and her thick, long eyelashes trembled slightly like a fluttering butterfly.
She was wearing an extremely luxurious phoenix-tail skirt, her belly was slightly bulging, and her slender hands were clasped on it.
The twenty-third prince reacted and shouted: "May Queen Qing live long and healthy!"
Empress Qing is a new woman who entered the palace. She was selected from outside the palace and has been extremely favored by the Emperor in recent months.
Now that I am pregnant, I am thinking about praying for the child.
Empress Qing did not answer, but her face under the red veil seemed to smile at the Twenty-third Prince.
As the carriage went away, the rain gradually got heavier.
The twenty-third prince closed the door, turned around, but couldn't help but look back again.
He felt something was strange, yet also familiar.
The twenty-third prince glanced down at the thick winter clothes in his hands.
This is a gift given by Empress Qing to the royal heir in the palace in order to pray for blessings.
There are many royal heirs in the palace, and she gave such a generous gift at the first try, which makes people feel somewhat grateful for her generosity.
"Is it my illusion? I always feel that this happened. Did it happen in a dream?"
This is a very strong sense of déjà vu.
The Twenty-Third Prince sighed.
I guess I have seen a similar scene in a dream.
He returned to the bedroom with his clothes in his arms, mumbling, "It's Song's birthday today, does he still remember me?"
The rain gradually fell behind his footsteps, and the courtyard gradually became noisy.
