The ghost-catching princess, she always pretends to be weak

"I saw you on the street today. I thought I had seen you wrong. I wondered how you could be here."

Lu Xu lowered his eyes, suddenly feeling that something was missing in his heart. Although they had known each other for a long time, and their engagement with Wen Jiu had been set for a long time, he seemed not to understand the person in front of him at all.

It took a long time for Wen Jiu to speak: "It is naturally impossible for Wen Jiu from Beijing to appear in southern Xinjiang, but that is not necessarily the case for Wen Jiu from Qingyun Mountain."

She took a deep breath. There were many more flowers, plants and trees in southern Xinjiang than in the capital city, and there was always a faint fragrance in the air. It smelled very good, and she felt comfortable after smelling it.

"So what are you doing this time?"

Wen Jiu slowly stopped laughing: "Lu Xu, you grew up in Beijing, do you know the former Prince's Mansion?"

If everyone has secrets, can Lu Xu be honest with him? After all, he is the one who lives and dies with him, at least for now.

Lu Xu was obviously startled, obviously unaware that Wen Jiu suddenly mentioned this topic.

He was silent for a long time, seeming to be recalling something.

Wen Jiu pretended to be relaxed and said: "It's okay. The former Prince's Mansion seems to be the only thing I can't find out about in Beijing. Aren't you asking me why I am here? I just want to know what happened in the former Prince's Mansion. , he was kicked out of the capital, what a secret it must be."

"But it wasn't my parents who asked me to leave the capital, but my master, so I can't figure it out even more."

Lu Xu twitched the corner of his mouth and showed a wry smile: "I don't have to hide it from you. I fell off a rockery when I was young and have forgotten many things. The incident in the former Prince's Mansion happened before I lost my memory, so I didn't leave anything behind. What impression, but this matter is almost a taboo in the capital and is not allowed to be mentioned. Although I am a royal guard, I obey the orders of the Holy Emperor. Naturally, I will not investigate things that the emperor has not ordered me to investigate. "

Wen Jiu frowned slightly: "Have you ever lost your memory when you were a child?"

Lu Xu nodded: "Yes, I haven't remembered it yet."

So since he could remember, the prince-consort, his biological father, had never been kind to him, and he was often in a trance. He couldn't even remember how kind his father was to him.

He turned to look at Wen Jiu and continued: "I didn't mean to hide it, don't be angry."

Wen Jiu opened his mouth slightly. What's there to be angry about? When did Lu Xu become so considerate? Is it because he rushed to change his persona after leaving the capital?

She raised her eyebrows and had a plan in mind. She lowered her head and approached Lu Xu, pretending to be mysterious and said, "I will also tell you a secret."

Lu Xu was startled by the sudden approach of Wen Jiu. He felt a sweet fragrance in his breath. It turned out that the girl he liked smelled like this. If he got closer, she would smell like this.

Wen Jiu raised his eyes, with a trace of doubt in his eyes: "Aren't you curious?"

Lu Xu suddenly closed the distance between him and Wen Jiu, his expression a little unnatural: "What?"

Wen Jiu hugged his knees and looked up at the stars above his head. Manling was probably the closest place to the night sky above him among the places Wen Jiu had been to.

She spoke slowly and leisurely: "I was not born as frail and sickly as the rumors say. I remember when I was a child, I would climb trees and walls and follow Zi Su and Pinellia ternata around the garden. But for some reason, one day I suddenly My condition became worse. Even after searching all the doctors, they couldn't tell what was wrong with me until I met the master." "But they all said that my parents sent me to Qingyun Mountain themselves. I don't remember it either, but What is certain is that I barely survived after being taken away by my master."

"I haven't been back to Beijing very much in the past few years because my body has just recovered. But I still don't know what kind of illness I have. Even the master can't tell me. I'm still wondering if I'm being haunted by some evil spirit. It was eroded by Yin Qi, so it took so long to recover in Qingyun Mountain."

Lu Xu looked at Wen Jiu thoughtfully: "If the doctor can't detect any illness, but your master can save you, your guess is not unreasonable."

Wen Jiunai was the only daughter of Grand Tutor Wen, so the doctor she hired must be one of the best in the capital. It was not impossible to even hire an imperial doctor from the palace.

"My parents have done good deeds and accumulated virtues all their lives. How could I be entangled by an evil spirit when I'm a good person?" Wen Jiu said seriously: "And what kind of evil spirit is this? It took me so long to do it. Barely recovering.”

Although I haven't been hunting ghosts for a long time, I have never heard of such a powerful ghost.

Lu Xu couldn't bear for her to continue to dwell on this matter and deliberately changed the topic: "Forget it, now that you are well, why bother about the past? Then why did you come to southern Xinjiang this time because you were kicked out?"

Speaking of this, Wen Jiuke became angry: "I originally wanted to check about the talisman paper in the former Prince's Mansion, but after asking a few more questions, the master asked me to leave the capital. It happened that senior brother and Xiao Shi were coming. Southern Xinjiang took me along along the way."

She thought about this journey again, and couldn't help but raise her forehead: "You don't know what we have been through this time. We have seen almost all the snakes, and now I still panic when I think about it."

Lu Xu's eyebrows were soft, and there was unconcealable endearment in his eyes: "There are many snakes and insects in southern Xinjiang. Didn't you do your homework when you came?"

I still remember that Xiaowu and Xiaoliu were still at Yunqi Academy at that time, and they would often mention in front of him how Wen Jiu quoted scriptures in class today and made the teacher speechless.

Wen Jiu couldn't help but pursed his lips: "I'm still doing my homework. It's too temporary, and it's a matter between senior brother and junior brother. I was also thinking about checking the talismans in the former prince's mansion. It's really weird. ”

The air was filled with a comfortable fragrance, and the girl he loved was sitting next to him. Lu Xu relaxed unconsciously. He was not as cautious in his words and actions as he used to be in Beijing, and he had to think twice about even saying one more word.

At this time, he also expressed his conjecture: "There is nothing in the capital that no one can find. It's just that there are things that cannot be investigated."

The former Prince's Mansion is the biggest secret in the capital.

Lu Xu also occasionally heard some drunken remarks after banquets. It was nothing more than that the massacre at the former Prince's Mansion was almost an unsolved case, and even the murderer was hastily framed and passed on to the enemy.

But this is the capital city. If the enemy assassins could lead a group of people so blatantly and kill the entire Prince's Mansion without anyone noticing, then the world would have been leveled by them long ago.

Neither the late emperor nor the current emperor continued to investigate.

Seeing what he said, Wen Jiu became even more confused: "Unless the matter is deeply involved, or this matter is not done by a so-called enemy assassin at all."

The traces of the talisman are probably related to the innocent ghosts in the former prince's palace.

She couldn't help but frowned, what on earth was going on?
