Chapter 160 The Princess and the Musical Master

After washing up, the Taoist lay on the bed.

The cat stood on the coffee table by the window, sometimes turning to look at the night outside the window, sometimes looking back at the Taoist on the bed.

"Miss Sanhua, please go to bed early."

"Is that person the emperor today?"

"Yes, he is the emperor."

The Taoist lying on the bed looked at the darkness with his eyes open and said to her: "If Empress Sanhua had his edict back then, she could have been a cat god beside Jinyang Road without worrying about being caught. Nor would she.

You're wandering around with me like this."

"That's good!"

The cat immediately turned around and said.

"..."

The Taoist couldn't help but smile.

The calico cats back then didn’t think like this.

Before I knew it, a long time had passed.

"Taoist priest."

"Um?"

"Will anyone come to Sanhua Empress to catch mice in the future?"

"Of course." The Taoist lay motionless, only the sound came, "And no one will make mistakes in the future. But Empress Sanhua still needs to learn how to get along with others. Not just as a cat.

To get along with people as a goblin is to get along with people as a human being."

"Miss Sanhua will work hard."

"Ms. Sanhua, are you going out to catch mice tonight?"

"I'm full tonight."

"Then go to bed early."

"To absorb the essence of the moon."

"There is no moon tonight."

"Yes..."

The cat then turned around and jumped back on the bed, crawling and crawling, finding a place to nest on the quilt beside the Taoist's waist, moving its body to make the nest more comfortable, and then closed its eyes.

The Taoist had already closed his eyes.

There was some movement next door.

I don’t know what this heroine is doing in Changjing. I only know that she is very aware of the big and small movements inside and outside Changjing. Many things only happen in the morning, and she has already heard about them when she comes back in the evening. Even those ordinary people hear

As long as she inquires about things she can't talk about, she can easily get the results.

It should be her job in Changjing.

Things to do for noble people.

It's just that she didn't come to Changjing just to seek glory and wealth.

"interesting."

The Taoist calmed down and fell into a dream.

…

There were many candles burning in the room, emitting a calming aroma. Poems were written on the square lanterns. White gauze curtains were layered one after another. The bright lights became dim, reflecting the figures inside.

The two sat opposite each other in front of the chessboard.

He was a graceful man, about forty years old, well-maintained, but also wrinkled, and he was playing a white chess piece.

One person is dressed in white, looks like a fairy, and holds a black chess piece.

There is a maid standing behind him.

The sound of falling pieces comes and goes.

The elegant woman said: "I have been in Changjing for a few years, and I think you have become more and more beautiful."

"Wan Jiang's appearance has not changed. Maybe he has been in Changjing for a long time, and he looks more and more like a Changjing native."

"Sometimes I really want to ask someone to find those rumored elixirs that can keep me young forever. It's a pity that even your gold-swallowing ghost can't make me young again."

"The princess has a grand plan, so how can she contaminate these small paths?"

"You are sober. But you are eternally young and you don't understand what a woman would sacrifice for her beauty." The princess shook her head, "It's a pity that my two younger brothers are not as sober as you. In order to get rid of my men,

Someone actually instigated the monsters to cause chaos, and I don’t know who did it or who directed them... Hehe, how could he act like this if he wanted to be the human emperor in the Taiping Era?"

"What the princess said is true."

"Some time ago you and I discussed why the Changjing City God suddenly woke up and became diligent. Has anyone found out the reason?"

"Princess, I apologize, there is no news yet."

"It doesn't matter."

"The City God has been lazy for a long time. Sooner or later he will realize that this is not a long-term solution. However, he is awake at this time and intervenes in the fight for the crown prince. Even as a god, he still needs some courage." The woman held a chess piece and stared at it.

Looking for a place to place the piece on the chessboard, he said at the same time, "If someone doesn't offer benefits or there is an expert to supervise it, Tiangong has not taken care of it for so many years, and it probably won't take care of it."

"What you said is absolutely true."

The princess's tone was very calm.

Miss Wanjiang raised her eyes and smiled, as if the candlelight had dimmed a bit: "It sounds like someone has chosen the princess?"

"At the end of spring, auspiciousness fell from the sky in the capital, and all things were covered with spiritual rain. Do you still remember?"

"Remember."

"Did you hear about what happened at the Taiwei Mansion a few days ago?"

"heard."

Miss Wanjiang squinted her eyes, remembering the meeting on Changshan Mountain that day, and the subsequent glimpse of Hexian Tower. It was rumored that the monk who punished Taiwei Yamen also brought a calico cat.

"Is there a connection?"

"I don't know either." The princess frowned as she picked the chess pieces: "But tonight, your Majesty invited a Taoist into the palace to drink and talk alone with the national preceptor, General Chen Ziyi, in Anle Palace. He also specifically warned the palace

Concubines and eunuchs and maids should not wander around, so as not to disturb the purity of the palace. I heard that the Taoist brought a calico cat."

"Your Majesty also has the princess's spy on your side."

"That's not true," the princess said, "but the palace is only so big. What happened can't be hidden from anyone?"

"I see."

"Do you know when such an expert came to Changjing?"

"I don't know yet."

The woman answered very calmly.

"Go check it out."

"yes."

"What time is it?"

"It's almost the third update."

"It's so late."

"Princess, do you want to go back? Or just rest here?"

"It's better to go back. I don't know if the Taoist has left the palace at this moment, or is still in the palace chatting with His Majesty at night. In short, we have to go back to find out."

"Why don't you finish this round?"

"You win everything."

The princess has stood up.

The woman also stood up quickly.

After seeing the princess off, her expression quickly changed. She lost respect and became indifferent.

Her eyes were big and long, her appearance was beyond ordinary, her lips were like a boat, and as soon as her expression calmed down, she immediately became a bit world-weary and aloof.

The woman turned her head to look at the night sky outside, squinted her eyes, thought, and murmured:

"Fulong Temple..."

Ask the maid to fetch the painting and open it to take a look.
