Chapter 48
East Sea Dragon Lady Palace.
It was the number one brothel in the West Prefecture. The Clam Fairy was the star of the Dragon Lady Palace.
In order to create a tranquil deep sea effect, the Dragon Lady Palace wasn't as resplendent as other places. Its main color was dark blue. From the eaves to the entrance of the Dragon Lady Palace, there were huge fake shells, corals, and seaweed-like ribbons everywhere.
Outside the brothel stood Jiang Zhou's guards.
A guide sat on the shaft of a carriage. He stared blankly as he chewed on a strand of grass.
No one could figure out how a good-for-nothing like Jiang Jinzhen could gain the empress's favor. The matter of the Hallucinatory Array in the Imperial Palace had yet to be investigated, and Jiang Jinzhen was still the prime suspect. At this time, the empress actually crowned him with the title of Special Envoy and sent him to the Eastern Province to pick up a great opportunity.
Just because his surname was Jiang?
Nothing was as good as reincarnating!
The guide chewed on the grass until it made a crunching sound.
From time to time, he raised his eyes to glance at the brothel and sympathized with his two colleagues.
The other two were even more miserable. They had to guard Jiang Jinzhen's room to ensure his safety. Who knew how much torture their eyes and ears had to endure.
A dignified guide was reduced to guarding the door of a good-for-nothing who visited prostitutes.
The guide on the shaft of the carriage felt that this was a very painful night.
…
You Wuming and Sang Yuanyuan were close by.
They avoided the entrance of the Dragon Lady Palace and went to the back alley.
You Wuming narrowed his eyes and looked up. Then, he pulled Sang Yuanyuan in front of him. His greenish-black light wings slowly spread out and flapped.
In the faint blue light of the building, the two of them were like fish swimming in the sea. In two breaths, they swept across the roof.
The roof of the brothel was decorated with corals and shells made of agate.
You Wuming retracted his light wings. After taking two steps, he realized that the glazed roof was very slippery and difficult to walk on. Thus, he bent down and carried Sang Yuanyuan in his arms. With a smile on his face, he brought her through the underwater landscape.
Sang Yuanyuan was suddenly picked up and was a little surprised. She subconsciously raised her arms and hooked them around his neck.
Facing the sky, she suddenly realized that she had fallen into a beautiful dream.
The lights of the West Mansion illuminated the sky with a faint golden hue. Where there were clouds, the reflection of the light was particularly strong. Streaks of golden clouds cruised in the sky. Amidst the clear and dark golden shadows, the white moon appeared even brighter.
The sky was bright, and the corals and giant shells around him were suffused with a faint blue color. Standing among them, it was as if he was standing at the bottom of the sea, looking up at the golden surface of the ocean and the bright moon above the ocean.
Such a scene could not be seen anywhere else. The lights below were so bright that they blinded people's eyes, making it impossible to see what was happening in the sky.
Her smile gradually turned misty.
As for the person who carried her through the ocean floor, she could feel the familiar floral fragrance and warmth through his clothes. She gently leaned her cheek against him and could feel his heart beating heavily in his chest, making her feel at ease.
His jaw was slightly taut, and the side of his face was smooth and beautiful. His pair of shiny black eyes looked around casually.
Finally, he took a fancy to a fake shell that was half lying on the roof.
He strode over and sat down in the shell, nodding his chin at her.
"Looking for someone."
He looked down and caught her staring blankly at him.
His heartbeat suddenly became chaotic. He was extraordinarily proud of himself, but he also wanted to slap himself to death. Such a good atmosphere was ruined just like that!
Sang Yuanyuan calmed herself down and threw out the large-faced flower.
Now, her large-faced flower was as tall as a teenager!
The wilted flower plate suddenly came over, like a millstone, and could really scare people.
It stood on the side and looked at You Wuming with the corner of her mouth twitching.
The large-faced flower raised the two drooping flower leaves. The tip of the leaf touched the tip of the leaf and quickly began to weave the Spirit Containment Vine.
Wisps of swaying Spirit Containment Vine were woven out and swayed along the fake landscape on the roof. They climbed up the carved wooden window frames of each room and probed into the room to investigate.
Sang Yuanyuan's mind also followed.
What a scene of indulging in a life of luxury, men and women!
In the sea landscape, there were all kinds of wonderful scenes that were unheard of.
This Eastern Sea Dragon Girl Palace was indeed very unique. The prostitutes were like eels and squids, and they were as difficult as gymnastics.
Sang Yuanyuan clicked her tongue in wonder.
From time to time, she would exclaim softly.
"Little Sang Guo," You Wuming whispered into her ear, "are you looking so seriously because you want to make me infatuated with you one day?"
Sang Yuanyuan quickly put on a serious expression.
She quickly found Jiang Jinzhen.
The Clam Fairy's white body was really too recognizable.
She actually bent it into two right angles, perfectly matching Jiang Jinzhen.
The two's foreheads touched. The Clam Fairy's peach blossom eyes slowly swirled with starlight. Jiang Jinzhen was mesmerized beyond recognition. She wished she could die right there and then.
Tsk.
Sang Yuanyuan retracted the Spirit Containment Vine and pointed forward.
"That one."
You Wuming took her in his arms and lightly brushed past two corals. Then, he squatted down and lifted up a glazed tile.
On the huge fan-shaped cloud couch, the Clam Fairy changed her posture again.
The part that was exposed from Jiang Jinzhen's side really looked like white, soft, and elastic clam meat.
Normal people would not be able to imagine such a strange posture.
You Wuming squinted and looked inside. His eyebrows unconsciously raised, and he leaned closer. "Tsk."
A cold wind seemed to blow past the back of his neck. He turned around and saw Sang Yuanyuan looking at him with a dark expression, seemingly smiling.
He widened his eyes and closed the glazed tile. He tilted his head and complained, "Little Sang Guo!
What's so good about Jiang Jinzhen's body? You stared at it for so long! "
Sang Yuanyuan was speechless. Was he complaining first?
He took out the Bai Clan's Magical Dew and handed it to her.
"Use it all. Don't leave a single drop behind." He solemnly instructed.
Sang Yuanyuan's mouth twitched. "You don't need so much?
Didn't you say that more than two drops can kill someone? "
Immediately, she realized that he wanted to prove to her that he did not intend to keep a single drop for himself.
She held back her laughter and lifted the glazed tile. She used the Spirit Containment Vine to wrap two small bottles of the Bai Clan's Magical Dew and poured it into the room.
Beside the fan-shaped cloud couch, there was an exquisite transparent wine pot. It was filled with fruit wine. Just by looking at the color, one could tell that it was refreshing and thirst-quenching.
Sang Yuanyuan controlled the Spirit Containment Vine to drop the peach blossom colored Bai Clan's Magical Dew into the wine pot.
There was not a single drop left in the two bottles.
The Spirit Containment Vine shook, and the two empty bottles fell onto the silk blanket beside the cloud couch.
After a while, Jiang Jinzhen's ghostly howls gradually died down. Only the sound of panting was left.
"Husband, take a rest. I'll wash up and come back to serve you," the Clam Fairy said coquettishly.
"How is it?"
Jiang Jinzhen panted heavily and asked, "You've served so many men. Am I the most powerful one?"
"Of course!
I almost died! "The Clam Fairy twisted her waist and pointed at him with her finger. Then, she wobbled behind the screen.
Jiang Jinzhen lay on the cloud couch for a while. Finally, she gathered some strength and got up. She grabbed the wine pot by the bed and gulped it down until there was not a single drop left.
Sang Yuanyuan smiled and tilted his head to You Wuming. "It's done."
He looked at the beautiful smile in front of him and suddenly felt that there was not enough air to breathe.
After all, he was a young and vigorous man. He was a real man!
"Little Sang Guo." He grabbed her and leaned close to her. He whispered in her ear, "When will you and I be together, hm?"
She tilted her head to look at him. She saw a dark light in his eyes.
He suddenly reached out and held the back of her head.
His lips landed heavily on hers. Starting from the corner of her lips, he invaded her territory little by little.
It was a little different from the past.
His breathing quickened. He let go of her lips and turned to her neck.
She was forced to look up at the golden light in the sky. She was like a drowning person who had finally reached the surface of the water. She desperately breathed, breathed …
"Little Sang Guo …" A hoarse voice sounded in her ear. "My Little Sang Guo … you really want to kill me!"
She suddenly felt that he also wanted to kill her.
…
Half an hour later, the overdose of medicine in Jiang Jinzhen's body took effect!
In an instant, Jiang Jinzhen's body was like a red-hot soldering iron. He was almost emitting white steam.
Veins popped out on his forehead. His face gradually turned sinister. He unconsciously struggled with his limbs and twitched a few times on the fan-shaped cloud couch.
"Hurry, hurry up and get back here … what the f * ck are you dawdling over there for!" Jiang Jinzhen gritted his teeth and roared.
The Clam Fairy behind the screen was stretching her limbs in the wooden tub. Hearing this, she could not help but be a little surprised.
She was very sure that she had tormented this person until he was completely exhausted. He could only lie there weakly for the rest of the night.
She did not expect that he would be so fast …
He must have used medicine!
The Clam Fairy cursed in her heart. She said sweetly, "I'm coming!"
She moved to the edge of the cloud couch. Looking down, she saw two small empty bottles on the silk blanket.
Bai Shi … Magical Dew?
Her face changed slightly. She looked at Jiang Jinzhen in horror.
She saw that his hair was emitting white steam. His body was as red as a cooked shrimp. Two streaks of blood flowed from his nose to his face, but he did not notice. His eyes were wide open, and he unconsciously bared his teeth at her.
The Clam Fairy knew that something was wrong. She hurriedly walked out of the door.
Seeing that she wanted to run, Jiang Jinzhen threw himself onto the cloud couch like a madman.
He fell there with his head down and feet up. After twitching a few times, he stopped moving.
The Clam Fairy opened the door of the room and called out weakly, "Oh no, oh no, he used too much medicine. Hurry up and save him …"
The two escorts at the door immediately rushed into the room.
You Wuming heard the commotion below. His eyes quickly regained clarity.
He carried Sang Yuanyuan, who was limp in his arms, and rushed to the front courtyard.
In just a moment, the Jiang Zhou guards outside the Dragon Girl Palace of the Eastern Sea received the news.
"Someone's dead! Someone's dead!"
The whole pavilion was in a hubbub.
You Wuming's lips curled into a smile as he carefully placed Sang on a smooth and flat piece of clam shell decoration. He lowered his eyes and looked at her from head to toe, his gaze unconsciously tinged with gentleness.
After confirming that she could be alone for a while, he rushed down the eaves like a ghost.
Now that Jiang Jin was really in trouble, the Jiang Zhou guards below were already in a panic. Only five people were left to watch the carriage, and all of them were nervously paying attention to the movements in the pavilion, unconsciously ignoring the big carriage beside them.
You Wuming gently landed on the roof of the carriage. He flashed and rushed into the carriage through the window.
Sang Yuanyuan weakly commanded a large-faced flower to weave a spirit vine. It chased after You Wuming and acted as his lookout.
There was a row of secret compartments hidden under the soft couch in the carriage. In the secret compartment, there was a box placed neatly.
He didn't need to open it to guess that it was the box of Ten Thousand Year Spirit Marrow.
You Wuming smiled faintly. He took out a box of Water Spirit Solidifying Jade Crystal from the bag behind him. He exchanged it for the Ten Thousand Year Spirit Marrow. Then, he placed the box containing Huangfu Du's head neatly to the side.
After thinking for a moment, he picked up the small dagger inlaid with crystals on the short table. He slowly drew the half of the character 'You' that he had carved that day and deepened it a little.
After he finished, he casually threw the dagger back on the short table. He slowly turned his eyes and looked around the carriage. Then, he unhurriedly flew out of the window. He directly spread his greenish-black wings and flew back to the top of the three-story pavilion.
God and ghost did not notice.
He hurriedly returned to Sang Yuanyuan's side. He saw that she was lazily sitting in the shell. She was concentrating on listening to the movements on Jiang Jinzhen's side.
He subconsciously let out a sigh of relief.
Just now, he couldn't help but be slightly worried.
He was afraid that after leaving for a while, she would be gone when he came back.
He didn't know why he had such a strange thought.
It was probably because of the shadow left by Shangdu and Tiandu.
This fruit, if he missed a glance, it would roll to who knows where.
He strode back to her side and pulled her into his arms. He heavily kissed her on the head and said, "You're honest!"
Sang Yuanyuan: "???"
She didn't know what kind of strange things this guy with an abnormal brain was imagining.
At this moment, she didn't have the time to argue with him.
Her mind was completely focused on the side room below.
Jiang Jinzhen couldn't be saved.
The cause of death was clear. There was no need to spend any brain power to deduce the whole story. In order to show off his masculinity in front of the charming Little Clam Fairy, Jiang Jinzhen carelessly used medicine and played himself to death.
The three guides stood blankly in the room.
After a long time, the thin middle-aged guide sighed. He broke a jade slip and contacted Kang Yanji.
"Emperor, this subordinate is incompetent. Heir Jiang, he … died in an accident."
After a short while, Kang Yanji's slightly raised voice was heard. "What happened?"
The guide found it difficult to speak. "He overdosed and died on the horse.
This subordinate has already investigated. It was purely an accident. "
For a long time, only the sound of Kang Yanji's breathing could be heard.
"Alright." After a long while, Kang Yanji finally spoke. "Give the thing to the King of Eastern Prefecture and come back."
His tone was very tired.
The guide sighed and broke another jade slip to inform Huangfu Jun.
Huangfu Jun's feminine voice was a little weak. He was surprised and calm. "Understood. I'll send my brother to protect the scene. Thank you for your hard work."
The three guides looked at each other and didn't speak for a long time.
What kind of sin did they commit?
Jiang Prefecture's guards were grief-stricken. When they passed the news back to Jiang Prefecture, they all sighed.
You Wuming happily hugged Sang Yuanyuan tightly. His smile was handsome and mischievous.
"A dog biting another dog is the most interesting thing to watch." He raised his long eyebrows and his eyes twinkled.
After about two hours, a large group of soldiers came and stopped at the bottom of the pavilion. A heroic Eastern Prefecture royal jumped down from his beast and strode into the Dragon Lady Palace of the Eastern Sea.
Huangfu Jun's people were indeed very efficient.
You Wuming casually played with Sang Yuanyuan's hair and said to her casually, "This person is Huangfu Jun's younger brother, Huangfu Xiong. His cultivation is around the third level of the Spiritual Glory Realm.
He's the General of the West.
Although he's a younger brother, he's been on good terms with Huangfu Jun since he was young. He's very trusted.
This person isn't very ambitious. He usually likes to write stories. "
Sang Yuanyuan smiled. "That's good."
Huangfu Xiong quickly came to the same conclusion as the three guides.
Jiang Jinzhen's death was too obvious. No matter who looked at it, they couldn't find a second possibility.
Especially when combined with his usual behavior … if they really wanted to find something unusual, they could only blame the Clam Fairy for being too attractive.
Huangfu Xiong ordered people to capture the Clam Fairy and send her to the Eastern Capital for Huangfu Jun to deal with.
The brothel keeper cried as if she was going to die.
The Clam Fairy softly pounced to Huangfu Xiong's side and grabbed his hand, begging.
Hearing her voice, it was obvious that these two had been together before.
Huangfu Xiong grabbed her black hair and pulled her onto his body. He lowered his head and whispered in her ear, "Don't be afraid. It's just a formality. After a few days, I'll have Brother Wang let you go."
"Really?" The Clam Fairy pursed her red lips.
"Really." Huangfu Xiong smiled. "Next time, I want to listen to your stories!
That Ding San Zhan Bai Long, your stories are the most interesting! "
Other people couldn't hear these whispers, but Sang Yuanyuan heard them clearly.
She thought, 'This Huangfu Xiong is really a strange person. When he came to the Clam Fairy's place, he actually covered himself with a blanket and told her stories?
He really doesn't do anything serious. '
After sending the Clam Fairy away, Huangfu Xiong strolled out of the brothel. Together with two of his trusted guards, he stepped onto the large carriage inlaid with gold and jade.
Sang Yuanyuan carefully controlled the Spirit Containment Vine and hid it between the mermaid veils.
Huangfu Xiong looked left and right, and soon, he found the thing under the soft couch.
He casually opened the first wooden box.
It was a box of Water Spirit Solidifying Jade Crystals — You Wuming just exchanged for it.
It was an ordinary item.
Huangfu Xiong was expressionless. He closed the lid and reached for the other box.
"This should be the Ten Thousand Year Spirit Essence." He casually said to the guard behind him.
He opened the box.
In the carriage, the sound of the three people gasping in unison could be heard!
Huangfu Xiong's eyes widened in disbelief. After a while, he glanced around and suddenly closed the wooden box. His chest heaved up and down violently.
"Go out and guard. Don't let anyone come close, especially the guide." Huangfu Xiong's voice was hoarse.
"Yes!" The two guards suppressed their shock and left the carriage.
Huangfu Xiong took a few deep breaths. He opened the box again and confirmed it repeatedly.
What was in this box was indeed his nephew, Huangfu Du's head!
It was authentic!
Huangfu Xiong covered his forehead, rubbed his eyes, and looked carefully.
Soon, he saw the word 'You' carved halfway on the wooden box.
His upper lip twitched fiercely as he swept his gaze to the left and right. Soon, his gaze landed on the small dagger embedded with the crystal.
He grabbed the dagger and looked at it with narrowed eyes. He matched it with the word 'You' on the wooden box and then put it back into the wooden box.
He slowly took a few deep breaths to calm his emotions. After a moment of silence, he finally took out a jade scroll from his waist and crushed it.
"Big Brother, Du Er, something happened."
These two brothers were really close. In private, Huangfu Xiong actually called Huangfu Jun Big Brother.
Huangfu Du's feminine voice sounded faintly: "I already received the news. If Jiang Jinzhen is dead, then so be it. Just send the item back."
Huangfu Xiong closed his eyes heavily: "Big Brother, something happened to Du Er!"
"What!" Huangfu Jun seemed to suddenly come back to his senses. "Du Er?!"
Huangfu Xiong took a few more breaths: "That's right.
Big Brother, calm down and listen to me. I found Du Er's head in Jiang Jinzhen's hands. On the wooden box, there was the word 'You' carved halfway.
I thought back, the three guides did not have any strange expressions. It seems that they did not know about this. Big Brother, if my guess is right, this is Jiang Jinzhen's so-called 'top secret mission'! "
A moment later, Huangfu Jun's weak voice floated out: "No wonder I felt like there was a weight in my heart these past few days.
So, so it was Du Er … … "
"Big Brother, my condolences!"
Huangfu Xiong hit his head in grief: "Earlier, I received news that this Jiang Jinzhen was extremely preposterous. He gave away five boxes of Water Spirit Consolidating Jade Crystals to someone else just for a night of romance with Clam Immortal.
Now it seems that he was not just blinded by lust. He wanted to find a chance to throw Du Er's head away to frame You Wuming!
It's a pity that man proposes but God disposes. This bastard actually played himself to death! "
"That's right," Huangfu Jun smiled lightly, "Kang Yanji, oh Kang Yanji, Jiang Xujun has something on her, so she had no choice but to let Jiang Xujun's son do this fat job.
Heh, hehehehe, really, the heavens have opened their eyes!
If it was a slightly more capable person doing this, she might have succeeded! "
Jiang Xujun was Jiang Jinzhen's father, King Jiang Zhou.
Sang Yuanyuan could not help but think to himself — what kind of weakness did Kang Yanji have on King Jiang Zhou?
No wonder Kang Yanji knew that Jiang Jinzhen was useless, but still threw resources at him.
Huangfu Xiong said with some hesitation: "Big Brother, Du Er is your and her son after all. How could she be so cruel … …"
Huangfu Jun said: "There must be something that we do not know for now.
Later, you personally go to Jin Zhou and collect Du Er's belongings. See if you can find anything. "
"Yes!"
After a while, Huangfu Jun sighed faintly: "No wonder she was willing to give me the Ten Thousand Year Spiritual Marrow. She must have a guilty conscience.
What, does she expect me to get rid of You Wuming, this thorn in her side, in one go after I break through the realm?
Heh, wishful thinking … … "
Huangfu Xiong was almost speechless: "Big, Big Brother, you can't break through the realm!
This Jiang Jinzhen is really neglecting you to the extreme!
He, he actually gave away the Ten Thousand Year Spiritual Marrow as a Water Spirit Solidifying Jade Crystal! "
"What?!" Huangfu Jun roared with a changed voice: "Good, good, good, good!
Kang Yanji, oh Kang Yanji, ha, haha!
Now that I think about it, I know it's strange — no wonder she was so impatient when I asked her if Du Er got on the sedan chair a few days ago!
It turns out that she was not angry at my repeated questioning, but that she did not put me, Huangfu Jun, in her eyes at all!
If it were not for her incitement, Jiang Jinzhen, this bastard, would not have dared to be so neglectful! "
"Big Brother, calm down!"
Huangfu Xiong's forehead was covered in cold sweat, and he was also extremely angry: "She thinks that because you are injured, Big Brother is like a tiger in the plains!
Big Brother!
Do you want me to gather troops and beat her up! "
The two brothers looked at the jade slip and panted heavily, one after the other.
"Little Brother."
Huangfu Jun panted for a while and calmed down a little. He said softly: "Send Du Er back first. Don't make people suspicious. You don't need to go to Dongdu. After sending Du Er back, immediately go to Jin Zhou and organize Du Er's belongings.
There are still some doubts about this matter. I want more evidence! "
"Yes!" Huangfu Xiong answered solemnly.
"Also, don't let the people who took my things escape," Huangfu Jun said gloomily.
"Yes!
I will immediately send the order to capture that man and woman!
But Big Brother, you also know that there are too many people in West Prefecture City. It will take time to investigate, and we don't know if they have already left the city … … But Big Brother, don't worry!
Little Brother will seal the border. Humph, unless they grow wings, they will not be able to take the things out of Dongzhou! "
"Okay."
The Jade Slip shattered.
