Nightwatcher

Xu Qi'an bit the bullet, stepped out from the side of the princess, cupped his fists and said, "It's a new work from a humble job."

All of a sudden, everyone stared over, and the second princess looked at Xu Qi'an with her dark eyes.

The prince frowned.

The third prince said displeased: "You are a gong, what kind of poems are you doing?"

What he said was quite euphemistic, meaning, you are a martial artist, do you know what poetry is?

"Du Du..." the eldest princess tapped on the table with green fingers, attracting the attention of the princes. She said calmly, "His name is Xu Qi'an, and his cousin is a student of Yunlu Academy."

What can this mean? For a while, no one could understand what the eldest princess meant, and she herself seemed to like to see her brothers and sisters were full of question marks, but pretended to be indifferent.

There was a smile on the cold face: "Send Ziyang Layman is his composition, and the poem that Lin'an read earlier is also Xu Qi'an's work."

The prince present showed an unbelievable expression, and suddenly turned his eyes away, staring at Xu Qi'an.

The original author of the famous song "The Sheep Pavilion Sending Ziyang Layman to Qingzhou" is in front of him?

Yes, it is said that the poem was written by a cousin of a certain student from Yunlu Academy. Huaiqing said just now that Tongluo’s cousin is a student from Yunlu Academy. What Qing said could not be false.

This loyal dog who admires Huaiqing is the poet Second Princess who wrote about the dark fragrance floating in the moon and dusk. She opened her charming peach eyes and looked at Xu Qi'an without blinking. She had a little change in this gong.

Xu Qi'an was taken aback at first, and subconsciously thought that his behavior of sleeping with Floating Fragrance Oiran was being closely monitored by the Eldest Princess.

But soon he figured it out. It was Princess Huaiqing who ordered the watchman to follow him back then, so the eldest princess naturally knew about him.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince questioned: "But I heard that the Jiaofang Secretary's surname is Yang Mingling, and he is a student of Changle County."

The eldest princess did not answer.

Xu Qi'an had no choice but to explain himself: "It's a pseudonym for a humble job."

The prince stopped talking.

The third prince asked further: "The poem just now sounds good to me. After being drunk, I don't know the sky is in the water. It's quite artistic, and people can't help but want to know the follow-up."

The son and grandson of the royal family have received the best education. Even the second princess, who only likes to dress up and doesn't like to study, was forced to read sage books for several years when she was a child.

He has a solid cultural background and a good level of appreciation. When he was interrupted by the third prince, his attention returned to poetry. Because he knew Xu Qi'an's identity, he became more and more looking forward to it.

Xu Qi'an said slowly: "When you are drunk, you don't know that the sky is in the water, and the boat is full of clear dreams pressing the galaxy."

After being drunk, I don't know the sky is in the water, and the boat is full of clear dreams, and the second princess of Xinghe reads it in a low voice several times. I feel that these two lines of poems outline a beautiful scene that only exists in nursery rhymes.

On a quiet night, she was wearing a beautiful dress, lying on the bow of the boat, with a bright starry sky above her head and a river of stars reflected on the water.

The boat floated on the lake, causing ripples, and she fell asleep peacefully.

Princess Lin'an's heart jumped twice.

The eldest princess' eyes flickered slightly, and she moved her neck subconsciously, as if she wanted to look at Xu Qi'an sideways, but she held back.

Maintaining a cool white lotus posture.

There was an eerie silence all around, and the princes carefully chewed and savored these two lines of poetry.

Different from the second princess, what the princes experienced was a kind of ethereal aura that was far away from the world and was at ease.

The atmosphere is relaxed, close to the nature of the world, carefree, free from paperwork, string and bamboo troubles, and free from intrigue. At the same time, when waking up from the dream, there will be a trace of sadness in my heart.

"Good poem, good poem!" The third prince clapped the table, feeling excited, feeling that he had witnessed the birth of a masterpiece. This is an honor that no reader can resist.

"Is this Qijue or Qilu?" The Seventh Prince, who was about the same age as Xu Qi'an, asked.

"No, only these two sentences"

"!!!"

The princes were taken aback for a moment, staring at him with complicated and strange expressions.

"Don't be joking." The third prince said angrily, a little anxious, a little irritable: "The back is the back!"

He looks like a reader who has been tormented mad by broken chapters, and finally has the opportunity to meet the author himself, suppressing the emotions that explode at any time and saying: I will give you one last chance to code words!

"Impromptu poetry, it's really gone." Xu Qi'an was a little ashamed. This poem was not included in the nine-year compulsory education textbook.

Of course, as a cultural person, it is impossible for him to have only studied the poems in the textbooks. He usually collects some excellent poems and works, but he can't remember them all. He can only remember the most essential lines.

That's it for now.

"You, you..." the third prince pointed at Xu Qi'an, speechless angrily.

The other princes watched coldly, secretly supporting the third prince in dealing with the broken dog.

The eldest princess stood up in time to make a rescue, and said, "Xu Ningyan, go for a walk with me."

"It's unreasonable." Looking at the backs of the two leaving, the third prince patted the table with lingering anger.

"It's a pity." The prince shook his head.

"Oh, I remembered." The second princess suddenly called out and said, "I haven't asked him how the Sangbo case is going."

It's him! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince squinted his eyes. No wonder he felt the name Xu Qi'an was familiar to him. After being reminded by the Second Princess, he remembered this little man.

The eldest princess pushed back the guards and maids, and walked side by side with Xu Qi'an by the lake.

Xu Qi'an instinctively fell behind by half a body.

"What are you looking for in this palace?" The eldest princess stared at the calm lake, her voice revealed the texture of the impact of ice cubes, and the charm of a female voice.

"The investigation of the humble job has encountered a little trouble, and all the clues have been broken at present." Xu Qi'an glanced at the princess, saw that she didn't care much, and couldn't help but be sincere, and sued the case of the saltpeter mine and the small flag officer's extermination. The eldest princess.

"My palace already knows all these things." The princess's clear and beautiful face was expressionless, admiring the scenery of the lake.

She already knows? Well, with the ability of the eldest princess, it is not difficult to know the information I found out.

Xu Qi'an gritted his teeth, intending to reveal something more insider: "Why did the Yaozu bomb Yongzhen Shanhe Temple? This is a suspicious point, and it is also the breakthrough point of this case."

First verify whether it is the first-generation supervisor. If it is the first-generation supervisor, then the object of collusion with the Yaozu can be locked in a rough range.

The eldest princess withdrew her gaze, looked at Xu Qi'an with beautiful eyes, and said in a calm tone, "Under the Shanhe Temple in Yongzhen, there is indeed a terrible strong person or something sealed. And this secret, only the father knows."

"" Xu Qi'an almost couldn't control his expression.

The eldest princess even knows this?

She has already realized that there is a sealed item under the Shanhe Temple in Yongzhen. Yes, after reading my investigation file, it is not surprising that she can deduce this with the wisdom of the Eldest Princess.

It's just that Xu Qi'an didn't expect that the eldest princess would talk to him about this frankly. You must know that only Emperor Yuan Jing knows the secrets in the Shanhe Temple in Yongzhen.

"You are a rare talent, are you willing to work for this palace?" Seeing that Xu Qi'an was slightly moved, the eldest princess knew that Xu Qi'an was shocked, chuckled lightly, and threw out an olive branch.

This is exactly what Xu Qi'an wanted, what he wanted, but he didn't dare to say it, since the eldest princess is so good at coming, Xu Qi'an immediately said:

"The humble job is determined to be a princess."

Xu Qi'an is very familiar with this set, and he surrendered to the leader like this when working in the police station in his previous life.

Of course, it's just an ally at work, for mutual benefit, not to be a dog for the imperial power, he added inwardly.

I believe that with the princess's EQ and IQ, it should not be difficult to maintain a relatively decent relationship.

The eldest princess smiled brightly, and the lake light dimmed a bit.

"Tell me, what did you find out?" Princess Lianhua's tone and attitude changed drastically, and the vague barrier disappeared.

Xu Qi'an thought about it, and planned to tell the truth. The reason was that he had just formed an "ally" relationship with the eldest princess, and he needed to show his own value.

Let the eldest princess feel that this little brother is very strong and very good.

In addition, he wanted to find out about Sangbo's sealed item, and he couldn't do without the help of the eldest princess. Besides, it was the eldest princess who opened up this topic first, and told him frankly that only Emperor Yuan Jing knew this secret.

"According to the low-level investigation, there is a black hand behind Zhou Chixiong who is manipulating all this, and it is also the monster clan who colluded." Xu Qi'an said.

A strange look flashed in the eldest princess's eyes: "How can you see that?"

Xu Qi'an said: "Magistrate Zhao of Taikang County died in the dungeon of the government office this morning. I suspect that he was silenced."

The eldest princess lowered her eyes and nodded while thinking.

Xu Qi'an continued: "I have been wondering why the Yaozu wanted to blow up Sangbo, and why did the black hands behind the scenes collude with the Yaozu? I sent people to check all the documents about Sangbo, and found a very strange thing. Time point: five hundred years ago!"

Having said that, he paused, leaving time for the eldest princess to be shocked.

But he was disappointed, the eldest princess just frowned and digested the message.

It's true what you said about the old days. This woman has a gully in her chest, and it's unfathomable.

"Five hundred years ago, the prince at that time accidentally fell into the water, got hysterical, and soon drowned in Sangbo." Xu Qi'an said.

The eldest princess showed a dazed look: "I remember this past event."

Xu Qi'an nodded, and continued: "Five hundred years ago, Emperor Wu revived the imperial court and eliminated Xiaoxiao. There was one person who was an obstacle he couldn't avoid - the first supervisor!"

Hearing this, the eldest princess really changed color.

Xu Qi'an stared at the flawless and beautiful face of the eldest princess, and asked a series of questions: "Why did the supervisor pretend to be sick? Why did your majesty keep the Sangbo sealed item secret? Why did the things underneath not die after being suppressed for five hundred years? Don't you know anything about your past?"

Is this a distortion of human nature or a loss of morality Xu Qi'an added: "Of course, this is just a humble guess, but if you have to find a strong man who meets the conditions five hundred years ago, it must be the first generation supervisor."

The eldest princess seemed to be shocked, and she didn't speak for a long time, when a gust of wind blew, and the lake was wrinkled, she sighed: "So, you are looking for Bengong"

"The humble official wants to check the files that cannot be found outside." Xu Qi'an said: "The humble official found the sealing formation in Sangboli, and the stone pillar of the formation is engraved with Buddhist inscriptions."

"Buddhism?" The eldest princess stretched her hands in her sleeves unconsciously, stared at Xu Qi'an for a few seconds, then looked away, and said calmly, "Okay, after the banquet is over, I will take you to Wenyuan Pavilion .”

Xu Qi'an breathed a sigh of relief, and after thanking him, he suddenly heard laughter like silver bells and the sound of water splashing from behind him.

Looking back, the second princess in a fiery red dress was standing on the back of a monster, holding the horns on top of the monster's head with both hands, staggering to stabilize her figure, with a graceful and graceful back.

The monster was white all over, with fine scales, and a flat armor on its back, just enough to stand on. It is three meters long, with sharp claws on its belly, and looks like a dragon.

The eldest princess turned around and explained: "This beast is called a spirit dragon, and it is a unique spirit beast in Zhongzhou. It has a docile personality. It is said that it was the emperor's underwater mount in ancient times.

"It likes to eat the purple energy of the world, so it was kept in the palace by the royal families of all dynasties, implying that the purple energy came from the east. The human race is orthodox."

The eldest princess added: "This beast has its own qi-watching technique."

It turned out that it was what I saw in the lake. Xu Qi'an said "hmm", purple air is the unique luck of princes and nobles, and this kind of monster needs purple air to nourish it, which means it is a kind of auspicious beast.

The auspicious animal sometimes raised its head, and sometimes walked close to the water, the water rippled in circles, the second princess smiled like a flower, and giggled like a little hen, playing very happily.

The princes watched with smiles, while the other two princesses ran to the shore, shouting for Lin'an to go ashore, and everyone took turns to play.

"Although Linglong has a docile temperament, it is also very proud. It will attack ordinary people who approach it. Lin'an is an imperial concubine, so she can play with it." The eldest princess said, her mouth twitched, and she did what Xu Qian didn't expect. things.

She clasped her index finger to her mouth and whistled vigorously.

Linglong heard the whistle, raised his head high like a snake, and turned sideways.

Everyone could see that the Linglong stiffened for a moment, it suddenly became agitated, and let out a clear and loud cry from its throat, shaking its head and trying to throw the second princess off, as if it was a shameful thing to be ridden by the second princess.

"ah"

"Plop!" The second princess screamed and smashed into the lake.

The spirit dragon frantically twisted its body and swam towards the eldest princess. While breaking through the water, it kept screaming, unable to tell whether it was excitement or irritability.

Wow!

When it got close to the shore, it soared into the sky, then fell heavily, hitting its head on the shore, splashing muddy waves.

A few drops of mud were splashed on the princess' plain white dress.

The eldest princess was a little surprised, the spirit beast seemed to be very close to her today, the reason for her whistling was not to summon the spirit beast, but to attract its attention, and made a movement of turning her head, so as to make Lin'an, whose foot was unstable, fall into the water.

Who would have thought that Linglong's reaction would be so great, he just shook his head and sent Lin'an flying.

Why does the Eldest Princess look a bit like the scholars in Yunlu Academy? My little brother is also so sinister and vicious. The Eldest Princess has studied in Yunlu Academy. Xu Dalang has a deeper understanding of Xu Erlang's warning.

Sure enough, only black-bellied people know black-bellied people best.

The movement on the water startled all the princes, and the prince rushed to the shore first, calling for the guards to save them.

"Linglong really likes Huaiqing more."

"Does this mean that Huaiqing's Ziqi is stronger than Lin'an's?"

"It seems that Linglong is not too enthusiastic about us. Look at its humble appearance. I only saw it once when I was a child. At that time, it was facing the father."

"Huaiqing is over"

Holding the hem of her skirt, the eldest princess walked towards Linglong with a smile on her face, intending to ride on it.

Here, including the prince, all the princes and princesses are also watching this scene.
