Chapter 80 Reverse Scales

As night fell, lanterns were hung on the gate of the royal palace, and guards patroled around.

The back house was quite quiet, Ning Yuhe was still sitting in the room meditating, while Zhu Manzhi was lying on the window of the room with a small ball of fan, looking at the little stars in the sky.

In the bedroom that was not very far away, Xu Buling lay on the soft couch with a little uncomfortable expression, but he had to lie down honestly and endure Aunt Lu's arrival on the clock.

"...Hmph~ The Queen Mother posted another post today, saying that she was worried about your injury and asked you to go to the palace to see it. I just saw it last time, and it has only been ten days... I am taking care of you, what's there to worry about..."

On the soft couch, Mrs. Lu rode on Xu Buling's waist, massaged her carefully like kneading the dough, with a few drops of sweat hanging on her forehead, and the back of the light green skirt was also wet with sweat. You could vaguely see the black tether in the bellyband.

He has a round and smooth figure, and he has everything he should have, so he naturally has some weight. This weight is nothing for Xu Buling, but it is very hot to stick it together. With the medicinal wine, he sweats, Mrs. Lu also sweats, and the thin fabric is not much different from it.

Xu Bu Ling forced himself to concentrate and tried not to feel the little things on his lower back, but Mrs. Lu moved around and felt it was a bit difficult.

"Aunt Lu...why don't you forget it, it's a bit hot..."

"I'm not hot, why are you hot?"

Mrs. Lu pursed her lips and wiped the sweat from her forehead with the back of her hand. She picked up the medicinal wine, poured it on her hands, and started massage again: "Master Ning said it would take an hour, and it was not yet time."

While speaking, his eyes described the bandage on Xu Buling's shoulder and said in a faint voice: "Ling'er, your injury has not healed, otherwise I won't go to the palace. I'll return the post?"

Xu Buling knew that the Empress Dowager must have heard of the news that he was unbearable for the poison of the Dragon Locking Gu, so she risked being discovered by Miss Xiao and asked him to go to the palace to detoxify. This intention is really warm.

We haven't seen each other for many days, Xu Buling missed the Empress Dowager very much, and some things have to be arranged, so we really have to go to the palace, and he said softly:

"The Queen Mother also cares about me. It is not good to just refuse. Choose a cloudy and cool day to go to the palace to take a look..."

Mrs. Lu narrowed her eyes slightly and twisted it gently, but she couldn't say anything. She put away the bottle and wanted to get up.

Xu Buling felt a little funny and turned his head:

"Aunt Lu, it's not up yet?"

"Any point you can go to the palace to visit the empress dowager. If you have the ability to find the empress dowager to massage you. I~ I don't study well anyway, and you don't like it, so I feel disgusted..."

As he said that, he felt aggrieved and stood up on the soft couch. He was so angry that he wanted to raise his hand to hit Xu Buling, but he didn't stand firm on the soft couch and fell to the ground with a "ah-" sound.

Xu Buling had no choice but to turn around and raise his hand and pull Mrs. Lu back:

"Okay, okay, just visit the Queen Mother. She has angered you a few times? Last time I gave the painting to Aunt Lu, you have been angered for several days..."

Mrs. Lu was held by Xu Buling's waist and held it a little bit. She noticed that her hair was strange, so she pushed Xu Buling's hand away: "Hmph~ I can't control you anyway, you can do it yourself..." Then she picked up the food box and walked out of the room unhappily.

Xu Buling had long been used to it, and he was not worried that Mrs. Lu would be sulking when she went back.

After getting up and put on his clothes, Xu Buling looked at the imperial city in the distance. He wanted to take advantage of the night to enter the palace, but he was afraid that Miss Xiao and the Empress Dowager would play with the Transformation Records. Thinking about it, he should go to the palace honestly as agreed time so as not to make a mistake.

Shortly after Mrs. Lu left, Lao Qi, who was in the guard, ran in and told the news that Lao Xiao heard at the tea stall.

Xu Buling knew that the "fish hook" was coming, so he didn't hesitate at the moment. After disguising himself a little, he left the door and prepared to take a look.

Just as soon as he walked out of the door, Ning Yuhe poked his head out of the window of the wing room, his eyes were very strange, looking at the baby apprentice on the roof:

"Ling'er, are you... going to do business again?"

Xu Buling has a clear conscience this time: "You don't have to worry about going out to do something else, Master."

Ning Yuhe smiled, nodded slightly, and disappeared from the window.

Xu Buling didn't care, and hid alone in the night, like a ghost between thousands of streets and hundreds of arches, silently slid across half of Chang'an City and came to a prostitute house near the Siyi Pavilion.

Guangdefang, where the Siyi Pavilion is located, lives in the foreigners who gather from all over the world. Most of them are foreign tribes, coming from the Western Regions and even further away. The factions and religions in the yard are extremely mixed, and even the court cannot understand them. It has always been the most likely place to catch fish in troubled waters in Chang'an City. The brothels and prostitutes in Guangdefang also have their own characteristics, such as black pearls, ocean horses, etc.

Foreign countries have always been regarded as barbarians. In these places, customers usually come to try something new. In terms of consumption, they are far inferior to Dayefang, and they are also considered to be of good quality and low price.

Xu Buling walked silently in the brothel and found the room that Lao Xiao mentioned.

The room was full of alcohol, and the hunter was covered with blankets and shrank in the corner of the wall, with a drunken face and a embarrassed look on his eyes.

Old Xiao sat in front of him with a crutch, raised his hand and pointed to Xu Buling who had just come in: "This is the master of the Investigation Department. If you honestly explain the matter of that day, you will let you go. Otherwise, you will either be fined 5,000 taels of silver or squatted in the prison and ask your wife to come to the capital to recruit people. You are white and black today, so that your wife will know..."

The hunter was helpless and spread his hands out, "Old sir, I have no grudges and no grudges with you, don't want to harm me..."

Lao Xiao took out a wooden sign from his arms: "I am a wolf guard, and the law is not merciless, you can do it yourself."

Xu Buling frowned for some reason, but it was not easy to interrupt. He immediately put his hands behind his back and looked like a wolf guard.

The hunter looked at the wolf guard token in Lao Xiao's hand and hesitated for a moment: "I... I happened to meet him accidentally. I definitely didn't get involved in this matter. Don't both lords and don't blame the good guys for wrongly."

Lao Xiao nodded: "If you explain it honestly, it's okay. Your wife is still waiting for you to go back in the house."

The hunter pulled the blanket, his eyes were a little confused, and hesitated for a long time before he said softly:

"... At that time, I was listening in the crack of the stone. The two leading people treated people with injuries. One of them said, "Be careful, there are traps arranged by hunters here, so don't notice them. If the news leaks, it's not easy to explain to the emperor'"

Xu Buling frowned, squatted down in front of the hunter, staring at his eyes carefully: "Continue."

"...I was thinking, the emperor is the emperor, and the matter must be big, so I lie there and dare not move. At that time, another person said, 'Be sure to kill it on the spot. If you do something here, you can fall on the Qinzhou bandits. After Chen Cang, it will be difficult to start."

Xu Buling nodded these two words were enough to prove that he was attacked by Zi today, and he was killed without hesitation.

"What weapons do those people use?"

"The one who was clamped with a Park knife, both of whom were leading the way were big guns, black."

Xu Buling stood up, frowned, and recalled a little. Unfortunately, his memory was chaotic, and he couldn't remember anything except fighting and the bottle under his feet.

Lao Xiao raised his crutch and tapped the hunter's neck, thinking a little:

"The two assassins in the lead at that time were indeed using long spears, and one with inflexible legs and feet was killed by the little prince as soon as possible... This person's words were not fake, but they had just tested them carefully. They didn't look like spies, but they might have seen it unexpectedly."

Xu Buling frowned and pondered for a moment: "What he saw was probably true... Now I should have been a dragon-locking poison. I have not been able to get enough poison. I have suffered from the heart-eating of thousands of ants every moment. I happened to find out that the murderer behind the scenes is the Lord, and I have the intention to kill me... What should I do?"

Old Xiao took a breath: "I can't find the antidote for the Dragon Lock Gu. I have no way to go in the desperate situation. I can only wait for death. The murderer is nearby. What else can I do?"

"I can't get into the imperial city, and my father is still there, and I can't help but want to take revenge. I can only endure it."

"After a few days later, the emperor left the palace and watched Tang Jiao and Situ Yueming compete. The little prince is a contemporary Qingkui and can be present."

"I stimulated me again that day, making me crazy and uncontrollable, so I ran to kill the emperor."

Speaking of this, Xu Buling blinked, with some doubts:

"I am alone in Chang'an and will die without a chance. What else can I do to make me crazy and desperate?"

Lao Xiao recalled:

"Mrs. Lu."

Xu Buling's eyes turned cold, and there was a crisp sound under his feet, cracking several lines.

Old Xiao sighed and walked towards the door with a crutch:

"That's Mrs. Lu. I'll keep an eye on it and make sure it's foolproof."
