Outside the door, Chengying was waiting beside the carriage, kneeling on the ground with one leg bent at a right angle, Yu Songling was raising his leg when a hoarse voice sounded from beside him.

"Don't rush away... tsk tsk... the young man looks so handsome... hehe..." The words were full of drunkenness.

Yu Songling frowned slightly, and turned around to see that it was the swordsman sent by the third prince to perform in front of the imperial court during the emperor's birthday. Suddenly, he got his mind on it, not only stretched his eyebrows, but also curled up his mouth in a vaguely invisible arc.

The man was obviously drunk, his face was flushed, he stood on the ground and kept shaking his body back and forth, and looked at Yu Songling with drunken eyes. Full of yinmi colors: "Hey~ Little Xianggong, I invite you~ let's have a drink~"

Chengying pulled out the sword silently from the side, but was pushed back by Yu Songling, and said in a low voice: "You brat, don't dirty the sword. Since he brought it to the door himself, then..." Yu Songling looked Looking at the swordsman, and then at Wen Rouxiang, Chengying immediately understood.

"Little Xianggong... Hehe..." The swordsman approached Yu Songling step by step, Yu Songling was not annoyed, but just stood there with downcast eyes, without answering.

Chengying saw some children setting off cannons at the intersection, so he went over and took out some copper coins and said to them, "You guys do me a favor, I'll give you these coins to buy candy, okay?"

"What do you want us to do?" the oldest child asked vigilantly, "We are good children, we will not do bad things!"

"I didn't ask you to do bad things." Chengying smiled softly, and pointed to the stable beside her, "You play here and block my way, so if you play over there, all these copper coins will be yours. OK?"

"That's it..." The children looked at each other, nodded in tacit understanding, took the copper coins and ran away.Chengying smiled slyly when he heard the sound of cannons beside the stable.

"What's going on?!" Hearing the frightened neighing of the horse, a few people ran out of Ruanrou Township. The leader was a middle-aged man with a strong body, who was the Minister of the Ministry of Justice.And as soon as he went out, he saw a drunk man trying to touch the fourth prince's face.

"Bold!" The Minister of the Ministry of Punishment hurried forward to stop him, "Who are you?! How dare you be unreasonable to the Fourth Prince?!"

"You, who are you, how dare you spoil my good deeds?!" The man said vaguely, full of impatience.

Raising the token in his hand, the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment wrote like ice, and shouted: "Come on! Take him down for me!" Several guards with him immediately drew their swords to meet him.

At this time, the swordsman seemed to realize that he had caused a catastrophe, and he was mostly awake from the wine. He recognized that the handsome "little gentleman" in front of him was the fourth prince he met in front of the palace that day, and he was sweating like rain, knowing that he It was a capital crime, so he turned around and ran away.Although the man was reckless, his swordsmanship was top-notch. He fought and retreated all the way, and the guards who chased him were all knocked down by him in a short while.Looking back, a man in black with his head bowed was walking towards this side quickly, and at the same time as he passed by, a dagger was deeply inserted into his stomach.

"Ah!~~" The swordsman screamed, staring at the indifferent man in black with wide eyes, not because he was surprised at the speed of his strike, but because from the beginning to the end, there was no murderous look on him—— This person is a sword in itself.As the man in black gradually grew taller in his eyes, the swordsman gradually collapsed on the ground, staring at this peak of swordsmanship that could never be surpassed in this life, and died of exhaustion.

"The lower officials are incompetent, and the other four princes are frightened." The Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment and a group of guards hurriedly knelt down and pleaded guilty.Yu Songling expressed generously that he didn't blame them, and drove back home amidst the sound of thanksgiving.

"What's wrong with your waist?" Yu Songling asked on the road, unlike everyone's Jingyan and Chengying's swordsmanship, he felt that Chengying didn't seem to be feeling well today.

"...It's twisted." Cheng Ying said silently.

"Remember to look for Geng Zhi when you go back." Yu Songling said casually.

"Yes..." Thinking of Shenxia's redness and bruises, Chengying couldn't help shaking her head and smiling wryly.

As Yu Songling expected, the next day, the news reached the ears of the emperor, Long Yan was furious, whipped the swordsman's corpse, and hung him at the gate of the city for three days, even the third prince was scolded by the emperor.

Yu Songling only smiled when he heard the news, because for him, this was just the beginning.The royal family is such a place. If you don't want to be framed by someone, you have to trample him down before that person.

"Fourth prince, Doctor Geng, please see me." Cheng Ying said.

"Let him in."

"Fourth prince." Geng Zhi presented a paper bag in front of Yu Songling, "The powder of the red centipede has been ground."

"Well, bring that death row prisoner here." Yu Songling turned to Chengying and said.

"Yes."

A thin man was brought up, Chengying mixed the medicinal powder into tea and poured it down for him. After a while, Yu Songling took out a jade flute, put it on his lips and blew gently.This is Yu Songling's guess. Since Lanshen Moyin can solve the Unfeeling Gu, maybe it can also control the Unfeeling Gu. Since they are both magic skills, it depends on who is stronger.

There was a shenyin of pain from the mouth, and gradually his expression became numb, his body knelt down on the ground stiffly, and he called out in a deep voice: "Master."

"Successful." Cheng Ying said calmly.

"Yeah." Yu Songling's voice could not hear any waves, but he was wondering about one thing. When he just practiced kung fu, he always felt that he heard the heartbeat of another person, and he was in love with himself. Echoing, this feeling has never happened before, it makes Yu Songling feel uneasy and... wonderful.

Standing behind Yu Songling, Chengying closed her eyes slightly to feel the heartbeat that suddenly broke into her mind, and subconsciously touched the cinnabar on her forehead through her bangs, thinking to herself, [it must be because of this. 〕

"Fourth Prince, Eunuch Gao is asking to see you." Hua Yu came in to report.

"pass."

"See the fourth prince." The old eunuch saluted respectfully, got up and cast a glance at Cheng Ying, without saying a word.

"This subordinate resigns." Cheng Ying understood, this man is the Queen's confidant, and he must be here for something important.

"No need." Yu Songling stopped him, and said to Eunuch Gao, "There are no outsiders, just talk about anything."

"The empress has ordered that the treasure map has reappeared in the rivers and lakes. The emperor has sent Situ Rong to investigate. I hope the fourth prince will take this opportunity to perform well and share the emperor's worries."

"Well, I understand after telling mother." Yu Songling asked Eunuch Gao to go down to receive the reward, and said to Cheng Ying, "Get ready, let's go to Bianzhou."
