No, gentlemen also guard against

Chapter 680: The elder and second elder sisters will like him...right? [Please give me a monthly ticket! ]

In the dark, antique house, a bronze object that looked like it was stained with blood appeared.

The atmosphere is mysterious and weird.

However, the pretty face of the blindfolded girl and the cute action of slightly tilting her head slightly reduced the serious atmosphere.

There is a line of words faintly engraved on the blade of the bronze sword:

If you fight with an evil dragon for too long, your body will turn into an evil dragon.

If you stare into Meng Yuan's eyes for too long, Meng Yuan will stare back at you.

However, it was covered by a large area of ​​dark red bloodstains, and only two simple words were clearly revealed on the sword near the hilt:

Evil dragon.

Zhao Qingxiu seemed to be very familiar with this sword. Her white little hands stroked the sword, and her fingertips lingered on the word "evil dragon", rubbing for a while.

She pressed her fingertips on the word "evil dragon", and crimson spiritual energy flowed along the meridians to her fingertips and was injected into the sword.

In the dim room, the dark red blood spots on the sword suddenly lit up, fading from the dullness to a deep red like red blood.

Like a red-hot iron in a furnace.

The "hot red light" on the sword illuminated the furniture in the darkness around it.

The line of words that was originally covered by the bloodstains became increasingly obvious, as if it was about to break free from the cover of the bloodstains and break out of the cocoon.

Cack-clack——!
The whole sword began to tremble.

But if you listen carefully, in addition to the "clack" sound of metal trembling, there is also a deep but fragmented strange sound, similar to the sound of some kind of flute.

Dragon roars.

The virgin Yue held the sword, and there was a dragon roaring in the square lake.

Feeling the bronze sword in his hand getting hotter and about to reach a certain extreme point, Zhao Qingxiu, who was blindfolded with a ribbon and looking down at the sword, gently withdrew his two fingers.

After a brief sword test, she slowly put away her sword.

She always carried this sword with her, even when she was lurking near the Xingzi Lake construction site.

It was not until he met Tan Lang by chance and was brought back to this courtyard to settle down that he hid the sword slightly.

This was left to her by her master, and it is the key to a place called "Mengyuan".

And also... a key for some stuff to get out of there.

The second sister told her not to be afraid of the "evil dragon".

The eldest senior sister told her that the "evil dragon" was afraid of her.

Zhao Qingxiu wasn’t sure whether the “evil dragon” was afraid of her.

But Zhao Qingxiu knew that the Female King's Palace could not do without her.

So, last time, when she wrote to her senior sisters, she was able to be a little willful...

Zhao Qingxiu's face was calm. She sheathed the sword, wrapped it tightly with a gray cloth, hid it in the cabinet, and placed it on a folded red signature paper.

This red fortune stick was the one she had prayed for in Chengtian Temple last time. According to Tan Lang's description, this was a king fortune stick.

What it says is: A perfect couple? A perfect couple like gods. What more could one ask for?
So, she carefully kept it away, treating it as important as the sword.

In front of the wardrobe, the blindfolded girl turned around and faced the silent and dark room.

Stand quietly for a while.

Her face was lost in thought, and at some point she seemed to remember something and suddenly smiled.

Her smile was as beautiful as a flower, and the two dimples on her cheeks were very sweet. Zhao Qingxiu also hummed the melody of a nursery rhyme from her hometown.

The next time she sees her eldest and second sisters, she will personally hand them this red marriage fortune stick.

She and Tan Lang are a perfect match.

After laughing foolishly for a moment, the girl who was in love wiped her hands on the greasy cooking apron, patted her red cheeks with one hand with a slight frown, walked to the kitchen and continued washing dishes.

Zhao Qingxiu waited quietly for her second senior sister.

……

"How's it going? Are you two full?"

"I'm not sure if I'm full, but Brother Yu is definitely full. I think he choked. Uh, although the food cooked by my sister-in-law is delicious, Brother Yu shouldn't be so exaggerated. Could it be that the food in my yard these days is not good?"

Ouyang Rong, Yuan and Li were walking by the lake. The former asked with a smile, while Yuan Huaimin talked freely and teased Li Yu.

"No, no, I'm really hungry today."

Li Yu lowered his head and said with some embarrassment.

Yuan Huaimin smiled heartily:
"Then next time Liang Han invites you to eat at the Huaiye Lane mansion, you will be stuffed to death. The food there is also good. Madam Zhen is really good at managing the household. I don't know why Liang Han is so weak and skinny even though he has had such good food since he was a child."

Ouyang Rong curled his lips: "This is called skinny and strong, what do you know."

Yuan Huaimin nodded: "Okay, okay, short and sharp."

"?"

Yuan Huaimin changed the subject: "But your sister-in-law is a little too thin. You two look like a couple, but I saw that your sister-in-law didn't say a word the whole time, and her eyes were covered. Could it be that..."

Ouyang Rong kept smiling, walked for a while, and uttered "hmm" in a nasal voice.

Yuan Huaimin sighed:
"What a miserable woman. Liang Han treats her better. I can see that my sister-in-law likes you very much."

Ouyang Rong pursed his lips and said nothing.

Li Yu suddenly asked:
"How did you know the young lady?"

Ouyang Rong did not turn his head and said simply: "Old friends meet again, and they love each other. The word fate is wonderful beyond words."

Li Yu kept his head down and followed Ouyang Rong and Yuan Huaimin.

Hearing this, he lowered his head and thought for a moment, preparing to speak when he suddenly discovered that the young man in Confucian robes in front of him had turned his head back at some point, and his sharp eyes fell on his face, which was filled with hesitation.

"Sir, why are you looking at me?"

Li Yuqiang asked with a smile.

Ouyang Rong watched quietly for a while, until Yuan Huaimin beside him turned back curiously, he spoke softly:
"I wanted to say something, but I forgot it when it came to my lips."

Li Yu restrained his smile, and after a while, he continued to smile.

Ouyang Rong walked for a while, and Yuan Huaimin said actively:

"Okay Lianghan, go back and accompany your sister-in-law as soon as possible. She has eyesight problems, so you should take care of her."

"Ah."

Ouyang Rong stopped and prepared to say goodbye.

Yuan Huaimin touched his chin, thought of something, and slowly frowned:

"By the way, I remember that you were engaged to that noble lady of the Xie family. Does Miss Xie know about my sister-in-law?"

Ouyang Rong was silent for a moment, then replied: "I can tell you."

Yuan Huaimin seemed to think for his friend and asked again:
"Does my sister-in-law know Miss Xie?"

"know."

"That's fine."

Yuan Huaimin breathed a sigh of relief, patted Ouyang Rong on the shoulder, and said seriously:

"Such a good girl, traditional and polite, probably relies on you for her whole life. You must treat her well, and never be a heartless man who abandons a good girl in order to marry a noble lady, otherwise I, Yuan, will also break off our friendship and draw a clear line. Although Lianghan has many friends and may not care about me, I still have to say this. I can't stand seeing lovers unable to get married."

Ouyang Rong looked at his friend who was rarely reliable and serious, and nodded:
"Me too, I'm waiting for your wedding with Commander Yi."

"...?"

Yuan Huaimin left cursing, with the word "insulting" all he could think of.

Ouyang Rong smiled.

Yuan Huaimin and Li Yu returned to the courtyard of Chengtian Temple. After entering the door, Yuan Huaimin glanced at Li Yu and suddenly said:
"Why are you so absent-minded? Do you know my sister-in-law?"

"No, no."

"That's true. My sister-in-law doesn't recognize you."

Yuan Huaimin went to take a bath, leaving Li Yu standing in the yard.

The plump man looked up at the sunset and murmured to himself:

"Is it a good fate or... a bad fate... It's really confusing..."

……

Evening drum at dusk.

Ouyang Rong walked with his hands behind his back towards the quiet courtyard.

Halfway through, Yan Liulang and Pei Shisanniang appeared.

The latter brought the former along.

The secret sentries near the quiet courtyard were all under the charge of Pei Shisan Niang and her people.

Only Pei Shisanniang knew Ouyang Rong's whereabouts when he was here, so Yan Liulang had to find her first.

Occasionally, Ouyang Rong would be alone with the embroiderer in a quiet courtyard. If it was inconvenient, Yan Liulang would stop them.

Yan Liulang came in front of Ouyang Rong and handed over something wrapped in red cloth with both hands.

Ouyang Rong took a glance and saw the Yunmeng Order that he had found from Master Yizhi.

There was something slightly different about this bronze dagger.

He took it casually and put it into his sleeve.

"Ming Fu, the Yue female spies from Taoshouzhai and Chengtian Temple that we captured have all been detained in Jiuzhou Prison as per your instructions and are temporarily detained.

"That One Finger Zen Master was imprisoned in a thatched hut in the temple that was specially used to lock up criminal monks. Chengtian Temple was very cooperative and detained him in the name of the abbot and the monks. I also sent people to supervise him.

"Well, after all, this bald donkey is a monk from the Hanging Temple. If he is directly imprisoned in the prison, it will easily cause the female official of the Supervisory Office and the state censor to intervene. Now the saints worship Buddhism and the whole country follows suit. If he is reported by someone with ulterior motives from the Wei family, it will be bad if Luoyang orders the Supervisory Office to re-investigate the case. This is a compromise solution.

"As for the Fang sisters, they have been taken back by Fang Yiwu and are under strict house arrest. I have also sent people to the Fang family to monitor them at all times. Without the order from the Ming Mansion, the sisters cannot leave.

"By the way, according to your instructions, in your personal name, the Jiangzhou Hall is collecting some precious herbs for the Fang family's wife to treat. Your Excellency is really kind-hearted. Fang Yiwu is completely devoted to you this time..."

Yan Liulang had been busy for the whole afternoon, with sweat on his forehead. He clasped his fists and explained everything one by one.

Ouyang Rong walked in front and nodded slightly.

Finally, the blue-robed captain smiled:
"Now, we have caught all of Yunmeng Jianze's spies in Xunyang City. However..."

"But what?"

"The Supervisory Council has some objections to the sudden action led by the Ming Mansion, especially since they were not notified in advance. They also want to participate in the investigation and examine the new prisoners in the Old State Prison."

Ever since the reinforcements from the four imperial guards from Luoyang arrived, Rong Zhen and the Supervisory Council have devoted all their energy to the Xunyang Grottoes.

All the death row prisoners involved in the Tiannan underworld traitors who were previously detained by the Supervisory Council in the Jiuzhou Prison in Xunyangfang were transferred to the Xinzhou Prison on the outskirts of the city near the Xunyang Grottoes.

Old Yang and others all moved there.

So some time ago, the old state prison was vacant, and this time it was used by Ouyang Rong and Jiangzhou Hall.

Ouyang Rong said calmly:
"No female official is allowed to enter the Jiuzhou Prison, not even Ms. Rong. You should tell them to guard the Xunyang Grottoes well. I am in charge of Xunyang City and they are not allowed to enter the city without permission to disturb the people.

"This is my seal and the prince's warrant. I will personally explain this matter to Ms. Rong, so there is no need for them to say anything."

Ouyang Rong took out a governor's seal and a dark black silk book from his sleeve and handed them over.

Yan Liulang took it carefully and nodded heavily.

"I see." After a pause, he asked again, "Mingfu, what should we do with these spies in the prison?"

Ouyang Rong was silent for a while:

"Keep him locked up first, don't torture him or interrogate the dead, and wait until the Buddha falls to the ground."

"Yes, Mingfu."

Yan Liulang took the order and prepared to leave. Before leaving, he remembered something and said with difficulty:
"Ming Fu, there is one more thing. Ms. Rong Zhen sent someone to the Jiangzhou lobby this afternoon."

Ouyang Rong frowned immediately: "Why didn't you tell me earlier that she is so sensitive to news?"

"It's not about the case we're handling today. She sent someone to find you."

"Find me?"

"Well, Ms. Rong Zhen sent someone to tell you where you've been, and whether you're still going to teach, and why you left without saying goodbye this morning."

Ouyang Rong:......

……

When Ouyang Rong returned to the quiet courtyard, Zhao Qingxiu had already finished washing the dishes and was in the main room.

Hearing the sound of Ouyang Rong coming back, she ran to the door of the main wing, held the threshold, and tilted her head to "look" in the direction of the footsteps.

Without the loud Fang Shengnan, the courtyard became much quieter, returning to the loneliness it had when Zhao Qingxiu had just moved in.

However, several months have passed since winter turned to spring. Now is the season with birds singing and flowers blooming, so it is not so "cold" at all.

Tonight, the moon above our heads is exceptionally bright.

"Why are you out? You don't have to pick me up every time."

Ouyang Rong said helplessly.

But Zhao Qingxiu said nothing. She raised her hands, groped forward, and walked towards him quickly.

The two were at opposite ends of the corridor.

Seeing this, Ouyang Rong also quickly stepped forward to greet him.

Seeing this slender and frail body, Ouyang Rong couldn't help but hug her tightly.

The two of them collided with each other, and Zhao Qingxiu hugged him tightly with both arms.

They hugged each other under the eaves.

Just then, two swallows flew back to their newly-cast mud nest under the eaves in the yard.

Without the Fang sisters, the two who had already established their relationship became a little unscrupulous.

They hugged each other as hard as they could in the dim, unlit corridor, wishing they could hold the other in their arms.

Ouyang Rong buried his face in her hair and took a deep breath of the fresh fragrance.

Zhao Qingxiu tilted his head, and the red mouth actually bit his ear.

Ouyang Rong, who had been restraining himself, was like a lit torch in the dark night and could no longer hold back.

He picked up the embroiderer in a princess-like position and strode into the nearest house, which was the west wing where Fang Shengnan and Fang Juxiu had slept.

Zhao Qingxiu blushed and realized that she had walked into the wrong room. She panicked and pushed his thick chest with both hands:

“Ah…Ahh.”

She shook her head anxiously, wanting to say that this place was not okay, it couldn't be done.

However, he was ignored by Ouyang Rong who was already immersed in the atmosphere.

Even Zhao Qingxiu's little "rejection" was mistaken by Ouyang Rong as the special interest deliberately added by the beauty, and his heart was moved.

Somewhat savagely, he threw Zhao Qingxiu heavily onto the bed where the Fang sisters' soft, red, and hairy bodies lay...

On the table inside the room, a candle went out with a whoosh and closed its eyes shyly.
