Wishful Things

Xu Mingyi kept his voice extremely low: "I have been having the same dream recently. In the dream, there will be a thunderstorm tomorrow... At night, a thunderbolt destroyed the Fengtian Hall in the palace."

"...?"

Even though Wu Chao was distracted just now, after hearing her last words, his expression changed suddenly after a moment.

What did he hear?

Fengtian Temple...was struck by lightning?

They all say that they think day by day and dream at night——

Miss Xu is indeed Miss Xu, she is so bold in her dreams and out of her dreams that it is surprising.

Seeing the complex look of "you deserve it" in the young man's eyes, Xu Mingyi was silent for a moment, and tried to make himself look more serious: "Mr. Wu may not know, I seldom dream on weekdays, but whenever I dream The same dream several times, nine out of ten will come true."

Wu Chao didn't speak for a moment, as if he was struggling with some kind of thought.

After a while, he asked, "Who else knows about this?"

Xu Mingyi didn't know whether he was referring to her "dream come true", or Fengtian Temple was struck by lightning, but no matter which one, the answer was the same.

So he replied: "I only mentioned this matter to Mr. Wu."

The boy in front of him seemed to be slightly relieved.

Looking at her, he said, "That's good. It's better not to mention such things to others."

After all, this is something to be taboo about, if it spreads, it will be harmful rather than beneficial to her.

Moreover, it is easy to be seen as a manifestation of brain disease.

Comprehending the teenager's worry, Xu Mingyi couldn't help being silent again for a while.

But when it comes to this matter, it is necessary to ask stubbornly: "Does Mr. Wu believe what I say?"

It's normal if you don't believe it, she can just make up other reasons.

If it doesn't work, bring Aoi together, after all, her Aoi's accomplishments in reading scripts can be called a wealth of knowledge, and it should be more perfect than her compilation.

Wu Chao looked at her.

After a while, a word came out.

"letter."

Although this sounds extremely absurd, if someone else asked him if he believed it or not after saying this to him, he would probably feel that the other party was insulting his IQ——

But Miss Xu is an unusual person, so that after she said such absurd words, she didn't feel much disobedience.

Now Xu Mingyi was stunned.

She was still reflecting on how lazy she was when she lied——

I have to say that Wu Shisun is really easy to deceive.

"The world is so big, there are no surprises." Wu Chao said, "What's more, Miss Xu is open and honest, she never told me a lie."

Xu Mingyi's breath became stagnant when he heard it.

Never lied to him?

It seemed like it didn't exist before, but now...it really does exist.

This feeling of trampling on the trust of others made her feel guilty and uncomfortable for a while.

"Thank you Mr. Wu for trusting me."

Xu Mingyi suppressed the complicated feelings in his heart, and said sincerely.

To make amends and to make her conscience feel better, she will try her best to live up to Wu Shisun's pure trust in the future.

"If you want to bring the incident of the lightning strike in Fengtian Palace to Xia Han, you still need to try to convince the emperor." Wu Chao thought about it and said, "The puppet that Mrs. Lu brought to Qingyang Temple today may be useful. superior--"

Seeing that he really believed it, and had seriously considered a countermeasure, Xu Mingyi also expressed one of his guesses.

"Puppets alone may not be enough. I have heard by accident that some sorcery is cast on the dead. In order to suppress resentment, they usually pay great attention to the burial of the corpse."

This is what she heard from an old Taoist priest when she was in Yangzhou.

Whether these things are true or not is impossible to study, and perhaps few people will believe them when they are told. But it doesn't matter whether they believe it or not. Since Xia Han is willing to believe it, he can use these sorcerous details to try to find clues.

Wu Chao asked noncommittally: "Mr. Yao from your residence, is he proficient in this kind of witchcraft?"

"It's not clear yet. I'm planning to ask in person after I go back today."

This kind of harmful witchcraft has always been strictly prohibited by the law, and the slightest contamination is a serious crime. Even if Mr. Yao knew it, he would definitely not be able to reveal it.

Wu Chao nodded.

"Then I'll wait for news from Miss Xu."

What should be arranged, he secretly prepared roughly first.

Xu Mingyi replied "OK" and glanced at the hourglass beside him.

It's already noon.

Sensing her gaze, Wu Chao asked casually, "Miss Xu, are you hungry? Why don't I order the kitchen to prepare some meals—"

Right now is the time to eat, and this is his family's tea house, it is reasonable for friends to show their friendship as a landlord.

Xu Mingyi didn't expect that he would ask him to stay for dinner, and if he wanted to leave immediately, he had to swallow it.

She thought for a while, and suggested: "There is a restaurant in the city called Qingfenglou. There are a few dishes in it that are extremely exquisite, and the restaurants next to it can't compare. If Mr. Wu is not in a hurry to go back to the house, I will take Mr. Wu to taste it. How about a taste?"

After all, when it comes to eating, the food in this teahouse is really not very delicious - after all, a teahouse that aims to make the business as deserted as possible, if the food is too delicious, it is a sign that you don't want to do it .

And Wu Chao, who has been particular about his diet since he was a child, has always been called picky.

Speaking of which, he came from Ningyang, and in this capital city, she is the one who should fulfill the friendship of the landlord.

What's more, the other party has helped me a lot, and I can't pay the big ones for the time being, and it would be good to express my gratitude with such small and small exchanges.

"It's not in a hurry." Wu Chao looked at her and said, "It's just that Miss Xu and I appear together in a crowded place, I'm afraid it might be inappropriate."

It's okay for him to be a man, but she's a girl.

It doesn't matter whether you eat or not for a meal, but it can't cause gossip to her.

Xu Mingyi smiled and said, "It's okay, I have my own way."

Wu Chao looked at her puzzled.

After half an hour—

"Master Wu, let's go."

In front of the teahouse, the curtain of the carriage was lifted, and Xu Mingyi in the carriage said to Wu Chao with a smile.

Wu Chao looked at the "Pianpian boy" with red lips and white teeth in the car window, and was speechless for a moment.

How could he have forgotten that this was a girl in the carriage who always had men's robes on hand.

Seeing the carriage driving away, Wu Chao got on his horse and chased after him.

In the Qingfeng Building, the moment is when the guests come like clouds.

Wu Chao and Xu Mingyi were led into the hall by the staff.

"Is there still a private room?" Wu Chao asked as he walked into the hall.

The clerk enthusiastically replied: "The two guest officers just happened to come, and a private room has just been cleaned up on the second floor! I'll take the two young masters up here!"

Wu Chao gave a "hmm" and was about to go to the second floor when he suddenly and keenly noticed that there seemed to be a gaze watching him from above.

Looking up, I saw a familiar figure standing at the corner of the stairs.

"..."

Unexpectedly, Wu Chao's expression changed slightly.

good evening
