Yun Chuyao looked stunned.
In the afternoon, they saw an old monk covered in scars in the bamboo forest courtyard. Because of his terrifying appearance, the second princess was so frightened that her face turned pale. It must be said that she seemed to see a snake crawling on the old monk's body. .
At that time, Yun Chuyao was also hesitant, fearing that the second princess had seen it wrong.
Until a black snake appeared on the fifth prince!
This snake could hide motionless in the fifth prince's clothes, and it could also hide on the old monk's body. It was just unknown whether it crawled in by accident or was fed by the old monk himself.
If it's the former, that's all.
But if it is the latter, it means that the death of Young Master Wang must be closely related to the old monk!
"Three Emperors Sister? Three Emperors Sister?"
The fifth prince called her repeatedly.
Yun Chuyao's eyelashes trembled slightly before she came back to her senses and murmured: "I wonder if this black snake is poisonous..."
Fifth Prince: "!!!"
"poison?!"
His face turned green, he rushed forward, grabbed Yun Chuyao's sleeves in a panic, and said in a trembling voice: "Huang sister, Huang sister, don't scare me, I'm so scared, Huang sister, I'm dizzy now, My legs are weak and my hands are numb. Am I really poisoned? Am I going to die?"
"...You were bitten?"
"I don't know!" The fifth prince's face turned pale. "It's over. My whole body hurts now, as if I'm really going to die... Damn it! It's so damned! There are so many snakes, so many non-venomous snakes, why did the one bite me? Poisonous snake! Sister Three Emperors! If something happens to me, you must tell my mother and concubine what happened and ask her to avenge me. I want these stinky monks from Hanshan Temple to be buried with them!"
Yun Chuyao glanced at the fifth prince steadily: "It didn't bite you."
"Really, really?"
Before Yun Chuyao spoke, Yun Yanli made a move. He stepped forward in three steps, picked up the snake corpse on the ground, handed it to the fifth prince, and said seriously: "Its fangs were If you pull it out, it won’t bite you.”
The fifth prince's heart relaxed, his legs softened, and he slumped down on the ground, muttering: "I knew it, I knew I was blessed with great fortune, and I would definitely not die..."
Yun Yanli: "?"
That's not what you just said.
Yun Chuyao also twitched the corner of her mouth, but she didn't say anything. She just walked forward silently and observed the snake corpse more carefully.
The fifth prince couldn't help but shuddered and said: "Third, third prince sister, stay away from it, aren't you afraid that it will come back to life and bite you again? How can a girl like you be so courageous? I'm really... Wait! Seventh Emperor! What did you just say? The snake’s fangs were pulled out?!"
His face turned green and he gritted his teeth and said, "This snake is fed by humans!"
hateful!
How hateful!
He was just a hair away from being bitten by a snake!
"Brother Fifth Emperor, you look very scared." Yun Yanyu also regained his composure at this time. He quickly got up and said sarcastically to the Fifth Prince, "How dare you laugh at me like this? "
"Ah."
The fifth prince immediately said: "We are different. You were so scared that you wet your pants just now. How can you compare with me?"
Yun Yanyu was ashamed and angry, her little face turned red. She quickly glanced at Yun Chuyao, only to find that Yun Chuyao was whispering something to the ugly thing, without even sparing him any attention. I couldn't help but get angrier!
At this moment, a woman's wailing sound came from not far away!
Silent night.
Tian'er, who doesn't see many stars.
A cry came over, and the grief and sorrow in it wrapped around the rustling leaves and merged into an even more terrifying whimpering sound that made people's scalp numb!
Yun Yanyu shuddered, moved his feet silently, hid behind the young eunuch, gritted his teeth and said: "Little noble son, please take a few people over to have a look."
Xiao Guizi's legs were weak, but he could only bite the bullet and respond.
After a while, he ran over with the news and said with a pale face: "Your Highness, the crying came from the old Wang family in the backyard. The eldest son of his family was killed and his body became a snake's nest. Dozens of snakes crawled back and forth on his body, biting out an unknown amount of——"
"enough!"
Yun Yanyu interrupted sharply: "I don't want to hear it!"
"Ha," the fifth prince immediately answered, "Nine Emperor Brother, you are so frightened just by listening to your servant's message? Haha, if you stand beside the prince to investigate the case like this prince, You won’t be scared crazy, right?”
"S-stop bragging!"
Yun Yanyu said angrily: "You can still investigate the case like this? Stop having this big dream!"
"What, you don't believe it?" The fifth prince rolled his eyes, let out a hey, rolled up his sleeves, and said to Yun Yanyu: "My dear brother, you, the fifth prince, have a lot of free time today, so I have plenty of time to chat with you. , you don’t know, the prince’s death was so miserable, not only the body——”
"Shut up! Shut up!"
Yun Yanyu said sharply: "Yun Yanqing! Shut up, my prince! Who allowed you to say this? This prince doesn't want to hear it! Shut up! Okay! You still said so, right? Little noble boy! Let's go! Let him think about it by himself. Go!"
After saying that, he didn't dare to stay for a moment, turned around and left!
He didn't walk fast at first, but when the cry not far away came again, he couldn't hold on anymore and ran towards his yard like crazy. Even the slave behind him called him, but he didn't dare to answer!
"...Your Highness?"
Deng Yu, who was waiting at the door, frowned when he saw Yun Yanyu with a pale face. He took two steps forward and said, "What's going on, Your Highness?"
With a trembling voice, Yun Yanyu told the whole story. During this period, he did not forget to criticize Yun Chuyao.
"You mean, Princess Changle lives in the courtyard next door?"
Deng Yuzhi was slightly surprised.
"Cousin!" Yun Yanyu stamped his feet and said through gritted teeth, "Where Yun Chuyao lives is none of our business! I mean someone died in the temple! The prince in the backyard is dead!"
"Crack!"
The sound of tea cups falling to the ground!
Yun Yanyu trembled all over, and his three souls and seven souls were scared to fly. When he saw the eighth prince standing stupidly at the door, he became even more angry and cursed: "Yun Yancheng! You are seeking death. ! You can’t even hold a tea cup! Are you a loser? I really don’t know why my mother insists on letting you accompany me out of the palace, you are a failure in success and failure in everything!"
"Your Highness."
Deng Yuzhi frowned and said in a low voice: "Although the Eighth Prince is soft-tempered, he is not a careless person."
As he spoke, he raised his eyes, looked at the frightened Eighth Prince, and said warmly: "Your Majesty, the Eighth Prince, your face looks a little ugly, but what did you remember?"
"I-I have met Mr. Wang."
The Eighth Prince's voice sounded like Yanli: "...just tonight."
As soon as these words came out, Yun Yanyu's scalp felt numb, a chill rose from the bottom of his heart, and cold sweat broke out on his back: "You, when did you see him? Did you see it wrong?"
