The Emperor's uncle loves me! My paranoid wife, don't run away

Chapter 328 It's dangerous to be friends with you

Zhou Hui certainly knew that the so-called abbot opposite him was also a fake like himself.

But even though he knew it, he still felt a little scared.

Serving the king is like serving a tiger. Who knows if you say something wrong, you will lose your head?

I have finally started to live a good life with my senior sister Li Fan. If I die before I can accomplish my mission, it would be a huge loss!

What's more, tonight's ceremony...

Zhou Hui took a deep breath and suppressed his uneasiness.

He is still waiting for news.

Whose news are you waiting for?

Of course it was - the news that the dog was in Luomian somewhere in Kyoto.

Kyoto, Wencheng Painting Studio

The front hall of the dilapidated Wencheng Painting Studio is still hung with calligraphy and paintings, exuding an elegant and scholarly atmosphere.

However, after passing through the small door in the front hall and around the backyard, the scene suddenly changed.

Push open a seemingly shabby wooden door, step into a warehouse full of debris, and then follow the secret passage down, and a secret underground space will appear before your eyes.

This semi-basement was built with great care, and could even rival some of the secret rooms in the Ruyang Palace.

And Luo Mian is hiding here.

The owner of Wencheng Painting Studio is Cang Ai, one of Luo Mian's secret guards.

At this moment.

The atmosphere in the room was a little... slightly awkward.

Mu Shan, Yun Shui and the other two stood at the door and took a look into the room.

He silently took two steps back, and very tactfully closed the door and bolted it.

Luo Mian stood in front of the table, looking at the tied-up man opposite him with a faint smile.

"I need you to do me a small favor."

The man let out a long sigh.

"King Ruyang, I have told you many times, please let me go."

He tilted his head slightly to indicate his wrists which were being strangled tightly.

"I won't run."

The meaning in Luo Mian's eyes couldn't be more obvious—I won't believe anything you say.

"I'll feel more at ease if I tie you up with a rope."

"..."

What sin had I committed to deserve being targeted by Luo Mian?

The man leaned lazily on the back of his chair and said with a smile.

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

Luo Mian raised his hand to smooth the rice paper on the table, dipped the brush in ink, and casually wrote the word "Palace".

Then he said slowly.

"An evil spirit has appeared in the palace. We need to perform a ritual. Taoist Master Wei, what are the steps to exorcise the evil spirit?"

Wei Lin smiled helplessly.

People really laugh when they are speechless.

"Prince Ruyang, sometimes I think you are really too much."

Wei Lin sighed slightly.

"You hid me here and let your men pretend to be me, and now you're asking me how to exorcise evil spirits?"

Luo Mian thought about it and nodded seriously.

"Yes, that's right."

Then, he added in a sincere tone.

"Thank you for your hard work, Taoist Master Wei."

Wei Lin: “…”

These two sentences left him speechless, and for a moment he didn't know how to react.

The flickering candlelight in the room was reflected in Wei Lin's deep eyes.

He looked at the "resurrected" Ruyang King in front of him, and suddenly smiled: "I knew you were not dead."

"But if I could have guessed that you would kidnap me, I would have gone to His Majesty and reported you in advance, no matter what."

Luo Mian put down the brush in his hand and spoke calmly.

"Master Wei."

Wei Lin: “Hmm?”

Luo Mian smiled slightly, looking lazy.

"late."

Wei Lin: “…”

He suddenly felt that it would be better for him to find a way to escape as soon as possible.

Wei Lin pursed his lips, glanced at Luo Mian, and spoke in a neutral tone.

"Even if I tell you the steps and methods, your men won't be able to drive away the evil spirits."

Luo Mian tapped the table with his fingers.

"That's not my men."

Wei Lin raised his eyebrows.

Luo Mian said slowly: "That's my friend."

Wei Lin sneered and mocked him mercilessly.

"It's dangerous to be friends with you."

Upon hearing this, Luo Mian was not angry at all. Instead, he nodded thoughtfully, as if he had seriously thought about Wei Lin's words.

Then, he admitted openly: "You are right."

Wei Lin: “…”

How can this person be so shameless?

Seeing that he hadn't spoken for a long time, Luo Mian simply continued, "It doesn't matter whether the expulsion is successful or not."

Wei Lin looked at him, his eyes moving slightly: "What do you mean by that?"

Luo Mian answered calmly.

"That dog emperor has gone mad, you can't tell."

Wei Lin was silent for a moment.

Luo Mian's fingers tapping on the table suddenly stopped. He leaned forward slightly and spoke in a light tone.

"Besides..."

"Who knows if there is really evil in the palace?"

Wei Lin narrowed his eyes.

"Speaking of evil spirits... King Ruyang has one beside you."

"Oh? Tell me about it."

"Shen Runing."

As soon as these words were spoken, Luo Mian's eyes instantly darkened and became obscure and difficult to read.

However, the curve of his mouth didn't change at all. He still looked nonchalant, and his smile even deepened.

"Master Wei."

Luo Mian spoke in a low voice.

Wei Lin did not respond. His intuition told him that what would come next would not be good.

Sure enough, Luo Mian narrowed his eyes, with a hint of a smile on his lips.

"If you've lived long enough, you can just tell me."

He tilted his head slightly, his tone too gentle.

"I'll send you to see the King of Hell."

Wei Lin: “…”

This madman!

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

Mu Shan came in with a letter.

"Master, a letter from King Jingyuan."

Luo Mian took the letter, unfolded it and glanced at it, the corners of his lips slightly raised, with a hint of amusement in his smile.

"You keep asking King Jingyuan for Luo Mosheng?"

Then he folded the letter slowly and flicked it, and the letter fell back onto the table. "This is——"
