After everyone chatted and laughed for a while, Mrs. Su ordered people to prepare dinner and left Mingruo to eat at the general's mansion. As soon as Mingruo agreed, she saw Eunuch Ke walking in in a hurry.
Eunuch Ke first saluted everyone, and then said: "Queen, the Emperor has sent a palace carriage to take you back to the palace."
Mingruo looked up at the sky speechlessly. Perhaps it was not a palace carriage that had been sent, but His Majesty the Emperor Yun who had skipped work: "Grandma, I'm going back first."
"Okay." The emperor sent someone to pick him up. Naturally, Mrs. Su did not dare to stay any longer. "Be careful on the road."
"Yes." Mingruo nodded and took Eunuch Ke out of the general's mansion.
A Babao palace car stopped at the gate. Shi Shi put down the pedals, and Eunuch Ke stepped forward and opened the curtain.
Mingruo walked into the carriage: "Huh?"
It was expected that Si Haochen was in the car, but what surprised Mingruo was that his senior brother was also there.
"Junior sister, what's this expression?" Jun Che said with a smile in his eyes.
"Senior brother is not here to pick me up, right?" Senior brother rarely goes out to hang out.
"Haha." Jun Che picked up the 'scarf' hanging on his robe and put it aside, "I usually communicate with Master at least once a month. Last month, Master did not send any message. Before, Master did
I said I wanted to retreat...
There is no reply to my letter to Mr. Qing Wei, which is a bit strange, I have to go back to Yunzhong Temple."
"Oh, senior brother, we need to leave immediately..." Mingruo directly pulled out a baggage from the 'sleeve bag', which contained dry food that was easy to carry, and medicines that might be needed.
"Yes." Jun Che didn't refuse and took the heavy baggage, "I came to see my junior sister because I want the weapon spirit to transform into me and host the 'Huaixu Festival' tomorrow."
"Presiding over the ceremony... Ah Ling can't do it, right?" Ah Ling would cause trouble even if she acted as a mascot for her husband at the banquet. The ceremony was such a big deal that Mingruo felt it was very unreliable.
"When it comes to communicating between heaven and earth, weapon spirits are much better than mortals like us." Jun Che was not worried at all that Ah Ling would screw up the sacrifice.
"Having said that..." Mingruo has no confidence at all in the weapon spirit he raised, "Senior brother, you should interview Ah Ling in person."
"'Interview'?" Jun Che found this word very interesting.
Si Haochen has become accustomed to his wife's new words coming out from time to time, and he can accurately understand the essence: "Just like the number one scholar in the imperial examination, see if it suits your eyes..."
"Um... Isn't it wrong to judge the number one scholar based on appearance?" Mingruo felt that he had the obligation to correct His Majesty Yunhuang's views.
"Do you want to pick someone who is troublesome and show it in front of your eyes every day?" His Majesty Yun Huang looked very arrogant, "I am already very irritated watching the officials scheming, why do I have to add trouble to myself?"
"..." Mingruo felt that Si Haochen was right and couldn't refute it at all.
Mingruo released Ah Ling from the space. No matter how many times he saw it, Jun Che still couldn't look directly at Ah Ling's foxy ears and tail. He felt that his decision was somewhat hasty.
Although Ah Ling is not familiar with the world, she is very knowledgeable about rituals. In her words, she has seen more priests than ordinary people, and she can easily find any rituals to pray for.
Jun Che repeatedly asked, just follow the steps to complete the 'Huaixu Sacrifice'.
Ah Ling still asked without giving up: "Don't you need to turn into flowers and plants to perform miracles?"
"No need." Jun Che held his forehead. Sacrifice is not a magic trick, so why use illusion!
"If it's just a ritual... I'm really embarrassed to accept an earth spirit bead from you..." Ah Ling felt that she was an upright weapon spirit who was not greedy.
"I just know where the Earth Spirit Bead is. I'm not sure that I can get it." Jun Che was certain that the Great Elder would not take the Earth Spirit Pearl lightly.
"Just tell me the direction, I will get it myself..." As an excellent weapon spirit who can empty Emperor Danxu's treasury without anyone noticing, in A Ling's eyes, it doesn't matter whether the other party is willing or not.
"Taking it without telling you is called stealing." Jun Che was very tired and rubbed his forehead.
"The Five Elements Spiritual Pearl is something that belongs to the space. If we want to 'take it without complaining', they must first 'take it without complaining'." Ah Ling answered confidently.
"I will handle this matter, just wait and see." Jun Che was afraid that if he took his time a little, Yunzhong Palace would become a monster.
"Okay." Ah Ling shrugged and shook his furry ears.
Zeelan prepared his horses and waited outside the city. When he saw a familiar car slowly approaching, he quickly came out of the woods on the roadside.
Fifteen grabbed the reins and said, "Hey."
Jun Che stood up and walked out of the carriage: "Junior sister, please take care, I will be back in half a month or more than a month."
"Senior brother, be careful on the road and send letters from time to time." Although the senior brother is very powerful, if the master is trapped, the situation may have gotten out of control.
"Okay." Jun Che nodded, handed the baggage to Zeelan and got on his horse, "It's getting late, so you should go back early."
After watching Jun Che and Zelan's horses run away, Mingruo and Si Haochen got into the car again and entered the city before closing the city gate.
The carriage enters the city from the west gate, and there is a market in the west of the city. Even at dusk, pedestrians are still coming and going on the street.
After passing through two streets full of hooks and tiles, the carriage walked for another quarter of an hour before the surrounding streets gradually became quiet.
In the night, a magnificent mansion stood in the best position in the street. A row of glazed lamps hung in front of the tall porch. There was a lot of traffic in front of the mansion.
The brightly lit place is incompatible with the surrounding environment: "What is that place?"
"As for Madam, that's the same house." Fifteen is very familiar with various places in the capital, and he won't recognize the wrong place even if he doesn't read the plaque.
"Is it the Tongfu who is married to the Zhao family?" Mingruo remembered that her second aunt mentioned 'Tongfu' in the afternoon.
"Exactly." Fifteen nodded repeatedly.
Mingruo looked at this mansion with gold foil on the door: "What does the same family do? It looks like a wealthy family."
"The Tong family is in charge of the Cao Gang, and all the ships that come and go have to pay for it. It's not rich." Fifteen felt that Mr. Bai's attack was too light, and it seemed that it had no impact on the Tong family at all.
"Eh?" Mingruo couldn't help but raise her eyebrows. The Zhao family had always been close to the Cao Gang, so Si Haochen gave him a beating. If he was smart enough, he should have kept a low profile and not gotten married to a member of the same family at this time. "
Who from the Zhao family wants to marry into the same family?"
"It's the second daughter of the Zhao family who is marrying the grandson of the same family." Shi Fifteen immediately replied.
The eldest daughter of the Zhao family behaved inappropriately before driving, and was imprisoned in a prison by Si Haochen to "think about her fault." This second daughter was the most distinguished daughter of the Zhao family, and she was married to the grandson of the same family, which was somewhat of a demonstration against Si Haochen.
Ming Ruo raised her eyebrows and looked at Si Haochen with a teasing smile on her lips.
Si Haochen raised his hand and flicked Mingruo's forehead: "What are you doing for me?"
"Your Majesty is so magnanimous. People don't always take you seriously." Ming Ruo made a face at Si Haochen.
