Records of Mysterious Things in the Southern Dynasties

Chapter 226 True and False Xiahou Hong

While Ren Yuan was enjoying the massage from Concubine Tang, another Mr. Xia came to the entrance of Rongshou Pavilion...

"Hey, husband, you are finally back..." The gatekeeper smiled subconsciously. He was stunned. "Oh, no, did you go out again just now?"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Mr. Xia frowned and said, "I just came back from outside!"

"That's not right. I just sent you in, and your husband said that his leg was lame." The eunuch scratched his head.

"I'm lame, your mother's leg!" Mr. Xia cursed: "There must be someone pretending to be me. Can't you tell the real one from the fake one?"

The eunuch knew it was true when he heard it. No one else's mouth was so foul. He slapped his thigh in panic and said, "Oh no! The concubine is in danger!"

The two of them hurriedly passed through the corridors and rushed into the bedroom.

At this time in the bedroom, the Queen Mother of Prince Yongyang had finished massaging Ren Yuan's head, and her hands began to slide down, touching him roughly as if to reward him.

Ren Yuan couldn't afford to lose his virginity to her, so he quickly grabbed his belt and tried to find an excuse not to accept the other party's match: "I'm too tired today, and I'm not in a good mood."

"You need to relax more when you are in a bad mood." Princess Yongyang pushed him onto the bed. "Just lie down, you don't have to move."

Ren Yuan screamed in his heart, it was so scary that the old house was on fire, I even used the 'all is fair in war' tactic, but she turned a deaf ear to it!

He was protecting his belt and thinking about how to get rid of it when he heard someone rushing in quickly. He turned around and was immediately embarrassed.

Oh my goodness, the real boss is here.

He was just embarrassed, but when Xiahou Hong came in, he saw his cousin riding on another him. That feeling was so sour and exciting.

"Hey, that bastard!" Xiahou Hong was shocked and angry, and roared, "Why don't you get off here right now?!"

Upon hearing this, Concubine Tang was furious and turned around to curse: "What kind of dog slave dares to barge in?!"

She was stunned when she saw that it was Xiahou Hong. She lowered her head and saw that it was the same style. She was stunned. How could there be two cousins at the same time?

Buy one get one free?
"Who are you and how dare you impersonate me!" Ren Yuan took the opportunity to stand up and walked towards Xiahou Hong.

"Who are you and how dare you impersonate me?!" Xiahou Hong said almost in unison with him.

"You're impersonating me!"

"You are impersonating me!" The two of them insisted on their own opinions and started arguing fiercely, which stunned the eunuchs and palace maids who came to inquire. My goodness, is the concubine playing such tricks? One Mr. Xia is not enough, and she actually conjured up another one?
"Don't listen to him, cousin. I am your cousin." Ren Yuan hugged the confused Concubine Tang in his arms.

"Yes, you are my cousin." Concubine Tang believed him and nodded like a little bird.

"Yes, I'm fake." The real Xiahou Hong also nodded in agreement, but suddenly realized, "Cousin, don't believe his lies. I'm your cousin, he's fake!"

Unfortunately, Ren Yuan's magical power could call a deer a horse. Concubine Tang was just an ordinary person and was completely fooled by him. She pointed at Xiahou Hong and shouted, "Quickly arrest this fake who deceived me and castrate him!"

The eunuchs and guards rushed forward to capture Xiahou Hong. Xiahou Hong was furious and blurted out, "I asked you for it five times last night, and I still owe you one!"

"Ah, you know all this?" Concubine Tang was confused and quickly waved her hand and said, "Wait."

Everyone thought to themselves, well, that’s true… no wonder Mr. Xia had to run away overnight.

At this time, Ren Yuan took advantage of Xiahou Hong being entangled by the eunuchs, quietly raised his flying sword, and shot towards him!

Who would have thought that the arrow, as fast as lightning, would hit nothing!

When I looked again, Xiahou Hong had already flown into the air, and his movements were so fast that they left an afterimage.

At this time, Diwuwei and Ji Buli also received Ren Yuan's summoning talisman and sneaked in. Seeing this, they immediately rushed to Xiahou Hong from both sides. Seeing this, Xiahou Hong flew straight into the sky and avoided the attack of the two. The demon-binding rope thrown by Ji Buli also fell into the air...

Ren Yuan's flying sword was chasing him closely, but he couldn't catch up. It was so fast that it was ridiculous.

"Don't chase him, it's his Yin Spirit coming." The Fifth Dimension said in a low voice, telling Ren Yuan not to waste his efforts.

When one reaches the realm of great supernatural powers, the Yin Spirit has been completely condensed. It can split itself into two parts and teleport instantly, fly into the sky and hide in the ground. It is very difficult to be caught, and there is no need to worry about the strong wind.

Apparently Xiahou Hong was afraid that Gou Chen Si would be waiting for him, so he used the Yin God to investigate.

As soon as Xiahou Hong fled, Ren Yuan and the other two also fled quickly, leaving Concubine Tang in a mess in the wind...

She knew her life was over.

~~
A white light flashed, and Ren Yuan and the other two appeared outside Longquan Villa.

"How to chase?" Ren Yuan asked hurriedly.

"I won't chase you anymore." Ji Buli shook his head and said, "Xiahou Hong is indeed a descendant of a general. His Yin Spirit is about to become a Yang Spirit. Even if the Lord of Guards takes action, he can't be stopped."

"Otherwise, how would he dare to come?" The Fifth Dimension nodded.

"Hey, Fifth, your illusion is actually effective on him. You can catch him."

"I used it, but it didn't have any effect. He should have a magic weapon to protect his soul." The Fifth Dimension shook his head.

"Nothing in the Xiahou family is rare." Ji Buli sighed and asked Ren Yuan, "Did you gain anything?"

"Not bad." Ren Yuan nodded, and then told the essence of his conversation with Concubine Tang, of course omitting those parts that were "irrelevant to the main point".

"No wonder Prince Yongyang hesitated and didn't dare to speak. It turns out that his mother found him a little dad."

Diwuwei and Ji Buli were not as surprised as he was. In those days, relationships between men and women were very chaotic, especially among the royal family and nobles. It was common for women to have affairs with their brothers-in-law. The Concubine Dowager Tang only had an affair with her cousin, which was considered clean.

But you can do whatever you want with this kind of thing in private, but if it gets exposed you'll become a laughing stock.

"No matter what, please ask General Chen to issue a warrant for the arrest of Xiahou Hong first." The Fifth Dimension said in a deep voice.

"How can we issue a wanted notice? The evidence we obtained by this method cannot be presented to the public." Ji Buli smiled bitterly, "Could it be that we sent someone to pretend to be the lover of the Princess Dowager of Prince Yongyang and get her to confess? How can Chen Shuai say that?"

~~
But the problem was solved the next day.

That morning, Prince Yongyang, who had suffered from insomnia all night, received a report from the villa and learned about the farce of the previous night.

This time the lid can no longer be covered up. The most important thing is to minimize the losses as quickly as possible.

He hurried into the palace to ask for an audience with Xiao Yan, knelt before the emperor and cried and confessed everything.

"Uncle, I didn't tell the truth to the people from the Gou Chen Division yesterday - the alchemy field in the back mountain was actually opened by Xiahou Hong!"

"Why did Xiahou Hong go to your villa to make elixirs?" Xiao Yan's face was gloomy and uncertain. In fact, he had already received the secret report from Chen Qingzhi and was thinking about how to deal with it.

"Yes, Xiahou Hong and my mother have an affair..." Prince Yongyang lowered his head, his face flushed with shame, and said, "My grandson thinks this matter is too shameful, so I can't bring myself to talk about it."

"How long have these two been having an affair?" Xiao Yan's eyebrows jumped, and anger was visible.

"It started as far as I can remember." Prince Yongyang cried, "When I was little, I thought Mr. Xia was my father. When I grew up, I found out that he was my mother's cousin, and he often disguised himself as a eunuch to enter and leave the palace. Later, when I became an adult, the two of them moved to the villa and no longer appeared in front of me."
