For several days, Xiao Rui and Li Junxian hung out during the day and lived in Jinxiu Building in the evening. At first, Li Junxian was still coy, but in the face of Xiao Rui's warm hospitality and enthusiastic arrangements, he quickly gave in and half-heartedly, and then it became daily life, and he could hardly take the initiative to make arrangements.
Xiao Rui laughed so hard that his stomach ached. It turned out that Li Junxian of the Xuanjia Army, who usually behaved like a Confucian general, couldn't stand the sugar-coated bullets. Stay a few more days and see if he can bring two courtesans back to be his concubines.
The prince was not found in Xiaojiazhuang in Chang'an. The queen was already anxious, but now it's good that Xiao Rui is also missing.
Xiangcheng was pregnant with a big belly, and she was getting thinner with worry all day long. The queen was about to collapse, "If I had known that Zang Feng was a stubborn fool, I wouldn't have allowed him to go out to look for someone. It's good now, he really does what he says, no. If you find Cheng Qian, you will never come back?"
Mrs. Song Guogong on the side advised: "It doesn't matter, looking for the prince is a state matter. Rui'er is such an adult, he can't be lost. Besides, General Li is not following him."
Princess Xiangcheng couldn't help but said: "There are countless people out there who want to kill Brother Rui. In the past, when he was invincible, he was plotted and narrowly escaped death. Now that he has lost all his martial arts skills, I'm afraid..."
This was obviously a complaint, and the queen felt bad after hearing it. It's not a good idea to stay as a daughter. You care about your husband more than your younger brother.
"Oh, that's it! I will return to the palace now and ask Your Majesty to assign manpower to find Xiao Rui. Cheng Qian is lost, and generally no one would dare to harm him. Xiao Rui is different. This child is too honest..."
After being bored, the queen left with her heart in mind. Only then did the Xiao family dare to wipe away their tears and express their worries about Xiao Rui with confidence.
If they knew that Xiao Rui was living happily outside at this time, I wonder if they would be mad to death.
In Jinxiu Building.
Xiao Rui drank and listened to music at night and slept alone late at night. Li Junxian was not happy, hugging him from left to right. Although the bearded makeup delayed his image, it did not hinder his ability to display his skills. The girls in Jinxiu Tower have seen countless people, and they have never seen such a well-educated bearded man.
"Fifth Master, let me tell you a joke. There is a new turtle slave in the building. He is ignorant of the world and disobeys discipline, but he has a very powerful mind."
"Yes, generally a little turtle slave like this will have to be trained by a good teacher for several years. He will inevitably suffer. He is quite good. How do you think he scares those gentlemen?"
Li Junxian chatted curiously while enjoying the warm fragrance of nephrite.
"Oh? How can a little doll scare you? It's nothing more than bragging and lying about what's going on at home."
"Hehe, you are so right, Fifth Master. That's it. But this boy is different. He actually calls himself the prince, the prince of the Tang Dynasty! He keeps claiming to be a loner, and with his red lips and white teeth, he is so different. Say, it’s really a bit of a disguise.”
ah?
A figure instantly appeared in Li Junxian's mind. He subconsciously became nervous and used too much force on his hands.
"Oh, Fifth Master, please be gentle, you're hurting someone... You're not showing mercy at all..."
"You don't really believe it, do you?"
After coming back to his senses, Li Junxian's old face turned red, "Ahem, no, I really didn't expect that someone would dare to pretend to be the current prince? If this spreads out, he will not be whipped, but he will be beheaded. This kid is so ignorant."
"That's right. No, the manager has been starving him for two days. Now I don't want to talk about the prince, but he is still a little unconvinced."
Li Junxian really wanted to go and see if he was the prince now. He couldn't understand why the good little beggar was caught in the Jinxiu Tower when someone was secretly accompanying him. Damn, these secret guards are really useless!
But now I'm sleeping most of the night, and I can't reveal my secret. That's all. Just make peace with it. Prince, you will have to suffer for one more day.
"Beauty, let's not talk about these boring topics and let's get down to business..."
"Ah! Please have mercy on my family..."
Li Chengqian, who had shed tears for a few days, was almost convinced and knew that he couldn't resist forcefully. Be conciliatory first, and then slowly seek a way out. If it doesn't work, you can just be a little turtle slave first. This is the Jinxiu Tower in Luoyang, where many dignitaries come and go. Maybe one day an official or noble person who knows me will come.
The guards outside smiled. They could finally rest for a few days. It was not easy to watch from a distance for so many days and accompany the prince to eat and sleep in the open air.
It's good now, he was sold to a brothel as a turtle slave, tsk tsk, at least his life is safe.
As for whether we should help rescue the prince, haha, our duty is to ensure the prince's life. If you can't save them, you can write to your superiors for instructions and wait for the next step.
Early the next morning, Li Junxian couldn't wait to leave the two delicate beauties behind. When he got up for a walk, he quietly sneaked into the backyard and found out the situation. He was really the prince.
He hurriedly found Xiao Rui and explained the situation, "Sir, how come the prince follows us wherever we go?"
Xiao Rui asked in confusion: "Fifth brother, what is your look like?"
Li Junxian doubted: "Could it be that you arranged it like this on purpose? You said you were taking refuge, but in fact you just couldn't worry about it and followed you to protect you secretly. Otherwise, you wouldn't have planned it in advance and came directly to Jinxiu Tower. ah."
Pfft...you...
Xiao Rui jumped into the Yellow River and couldn't clean himself.
"I came to Luoyang as a refuge. Who knows how this kid ran away from home and ended up in Luoyang, and was sold to the Land of the Wind and Moon. Let's go out later and ask the secret guards accompanying us for protection. How do these people do things? The prince went out for training, is it training to come here to be a turtle slave? "
So the two had a hasty breakfast, went out and took a look, and quickly found a few secret guards.
Li Junxian showed his belt, and several people's jaws dropped, right? Champion Hou came to take care of him personally? What else do we need to do?
"Don't think blindly. Just answer whatever I ask you. Just do as the superiors tell you. Just treat us as passing by. It's not convenient for the Marquis to show up now, do you understand?"
Several people nodded repeatedly, understand!
After hearing what happened to Li Chengqian, Xiao Rui and the other two couldn't help but sigh. Is this okay? The relationship was tricked and abducted along the way. If it wasn't for someone secretly protecting it, I'm afraid it would have been sold to Hebei by now, right?
After thinking for a while, Xiao Rui said: "No need to interfere for the time being. Let him take a look here. The two best schools for men are the land of romance and the prison."
Li Junxian said in confusion: "Sir, what kind of statement is this? This is the first time I have heard of it."
Xiao Rui explained: "The Land of Wind and Moon can directly face the ugliness of human nature in the world. If you read countless people, you can see the faces of all living beings. If you are trapped in a prison, you will reflect on yourself and learn from the pain, which is considered to be seeing yourself."
“Only when you understand these two points can you truly grow.”
Everyone nodded in agreement. He was indeed the champion who descended from the stars. It was so rare to hear these teachings.
"I've been taught a lesson!" Everyone saluted.
"By the way, if the instructions from above say that the test is enough, rescue him, you can find a way to inform us. Jinxiu Tower is not anywhere else, and it probably won't be possible to use force. I will find a way."
"Then how can I find you?"
"Just now..." Xiao Rui kept an eye on it, "We will be stationed in Jinxiu Building for the time being. Just give me your name as Mr. Li Wu."
"Ahem, young master, please stop teasing me...if word spreads, people will laugh to death." Li Junxian said awkwardly.
The two said goodbye to the secret guard, and Xiao Rui finally remembered Luoyang's purpose, to visit an old friend.
