Chapter 273 Restaurant Storyteller ([-])

ten days later.

Although the weather is cold, but the sun is just right, many people are sitting in the sun.

Gu Qingzhi had just recovered from a serious illness, leaning weakly on the porch pillar, squinting at the sun in the sky, his pale face was almost transparent under the sunlight.

"Miss Xiangzhi, my lord invites you to come over." A servant came over and said.

Gu Qingzhi nodded.

Since Cang Mushan passed out, she was sent to Mo Lingtian by soldiers.

Seeing her embarrassed appearance, Mo Lingtian cast her aside in disgust, and later he was taken back to Zhennan Prince's Mansion.

In the lonely room, except for a man who looked like a doctor who came to treat her every day, there was no one to ask.

Even those maids know how to bully others, they refuse to go up to the front end for tea and water, and put a bowl of white porridge on the table every day to let her fend for herself.

When people are in pain, they will think a lot.

Nan Jun is right, she used to live in a jar of sweetness, and she didn't realize the warmth and coldness of human relationships.

Now that she has fallen into such a situation, she is alone in a foreign land, and only then can she realize the hardship and the sadness of having nowhere to tell.

For ten days.

Due to the wind and cold, she was cold for a while, then hot for a while, and she survived the sudden cold and hot, which was amazing. During that period of not very sober time, she was more awake than ever.

Mo Lingtian was drinking hot tea when he saw Gu Qingzhi coming in.

After not seeing him for a few days, Gu Qingzhi's cheeks were thinner, and even if he was covered by clothes, he could still see the reduction.

The beautiful person was tortured abruptly and lost her luster.

"My lord." She called softly.

Mo Lingtian snorted with a half-smile, "You have to suffer a lot to know whether what this king is telling is true or not."

"My lord taught me that Xiang Zhi was stubborn before, so please forgive me."

"It's late." Mo Lingtian put the cup on the table, "Your Majesty is going to bring the princess into the palace immediately, what's the use of keeping it?"

His words already revealed murderous intentions, for a useless person, death is safer than life.

"It's not too late." She replied calmly without being moved at all.

"Really?" Mo Lingtian looked at her sharply.

She looked back seriously, "If the prince is willing to help, even if the king brings the princess into the palace, I can make them jealous of each other, and let the princess turn love into hatred."

"Okay." Mo Lingtian stood up, and looked at her oppressively: "This king trusts you one more time, if you don't succeed, you, go to die~!"

A faint smile curled up on the corner of Gu Qingzhi's mouth, "Don't worry, my lord, I still want to live a long life."

……

The most famous restaurant in Mata City is Zui Hongchen, and the most famous wine in it is also called Zui Hongchen.

Whether it is high-ranking officials and nobles, or literati and students, they all love to go there.

In the past few days, a rare thing happened to Zui Hongchen.

A woman is covered with a veil, and goes to the drunken world of mortals every day to tell stories.

It's just a table and a stool, and as soon as she sits there, she talks about books for an hour.

Moreover, as soon as she doesn't want money, she doesn't talk to anyone, and when the time comes, she will leave automatically.

At first, no one cared about it, but after listening to it, everyone became addicted to it. The book she told had never been heard before, the story was wonderful and bizarre, and she was very good at exaggerating the atmosphere. When others heard Qixing, she got up and tidied up Laundry leaves.

Someone once took out a piece of silver and asked her to continue talking for half an hour, but the woman turned and left without even lifting her eyelids.

Inside the palace.

"Your Majesty." Cao Xi looked at the time, it was not too early, and bowed, "If there is nothing else, I will take my leave first."

Mo Canglan looked at him amusedly, "I've never seen you like this before, what's the matter? Who are you looking for?"

"Your Majesty, don't joke." Cao Xi was a little shy, "Recently, a woman from the drunk world came to tell a story. It is around this time every day. If you go late, you won't be able to hear it."

"Oh~!" Mo Canglan looked at him teasingly: "What kind of woman can fascinate our Master Cao?"

"I'm wearing a veil, so I can't see her face clearly, but if I guess correctly, it should be the dancer from Zhennan Prince's Mansion." Cao Xi said, with a smile on his face, hunting from Cangmu one night, As soon as he heard her reciting poems, he felt that this woman was different.

When Zui Hongchen heard her sitting at the table and telling a book, he was deeply shocked.

Although she was wearing a veil, she couldn't see her appearance, but her temperament was even more convincing.

The stories she tells are wonderful and legendary, and sometimes she will give two raps. The difference between her and ordinary storytellers is probably her calm attitude. Whether you listen to it or not, she only tells her stories. Come out and leave when the time comes, and never delay for half a minute.

"Xiangzhi?" Mo Canglan frowned slightly, and he didn't know what it was like to mention her from someone else's mouth.

When he heard about Cang Mushan, she also fell into a coma.

The soldier reported that she was hot all over, her cheeks were colorless, and her left arm seemed to be scratched by a tree branch.

She must have caught a cold that night, but she didn't say it.

At that time, he was anxious about Mo Huaijin's injury, but he never thought that she would be injured too.

These days, he refrained from seeing her or thinking about her.

Even he himself doesn't know what kind of existence she is to him?
The only thing he knew was that she was just a beauty used by his elder brother to deal with him.

He understands Mo Lingtian's thoughts better than anyone else, and he has never been convinced that he is the one who sits on the throne of Dongyue Kingdom.

In fact, not only Mo Lingtian, there are many people in the court who do not support him.

That's why four groups of men in black wanted to kill him that night.

He's not stupid either. Among the four groups of people, he can distinguish between real and fake people who want to kill him, but now he needs to figure out who wants him dead the most?
It was a little late for Gu Qingzhi to go to Zuihongchen today, and many people were already waiting there.

Seeing her coming in, many people greeted her.

A cup of tea was placed on her storytelling table, and the drunk man smiled at her. He also listened to her storytelling for a few days, and liked her stories very much.

"Where did we talk about yesterday?" She asked casually while holding a teacup.

"Ah, I know, the part when Zhu Bajie married his wife in Gao Laozhuang." Someone happily replied.

"Okay." She picked up the gavel and patted it, and everyone in the hall fell silent.

On the second floor of Zui Hongchen, one person looked at everything below with amusement.

The masked woman calmly began to talk about the book, saying that Tang Seng and Monkey King walked to Gao Laozhuang, and heard the owner's daughter being taken over by a monster with a pig's head and big ears, asking for help to get rid of the monster...

The storyteller's voice is crisp and clear, and the story is ups and downs, and what she tells is vivid and fascinating.

She talked for more than half an hour before stopping.

"I'm very sorry, I'm not feeling well today, so I'll stop here for now." She stood up and said flatly, before leaving in a hurry.

Many people wished they could stop her and let her finish the book in one breath before leaving.

Of course, some people have done this before, but unfortunately, the masked woman is not allowed to enter, and she is surrounded by guards, and when she is in a hurry, the guards beat up the troublemaker directly.

"Your Majesty, how are you?" Cao Xi approached and asked in a low voice.

It was also a coincidence that once when he was drinking in Zuihongchen, he heard the sound of storytelling downstairs. At first he listened casually, but after hearing it, he couldn't stop.

In the past few days, the masked woman came to read books every day, and he also came to listen to books every day.

"It's really her." The playfulness in Mo Canglan's eyes became more obvious.

Was it because the previous strategy didn't work, and the strategy was changed?

Cao Xi glanced at Mo Canglan suspiciously, what was he asking about the story?The king seemed to misunderstand what he meant.

"Let's go." He also stood up.

Originally, he didn't plan to come, but he came here in a different set of plain clothes.

But he was afraid that she would see him, so he deliberately chose a place where she could not easily see him.

Very strange psychology, what is he afraid of?
Even stranger, why should he be afraid?
Has he ever been afraid of anything, but today there is a trace of fear in his heart, is it because he is afraid of the disappointment in her eyes after seeing him?Or was he afraid that she would blame her for abandoning her that day, regardless of her life?
Obviously he is not familiar with her, why did he come up with this idea?
Isn't this an idea that only the most familiar and closest people will have?

As an emperor, this is the most inappropriate emotion.

No matter what, he had to stay away from this woman.

"Miss Xiangzhi, the prince is in the car." The guard said in a low voice after coming out of Zui Hongchen.

Gu Qingzhi glanced at the direction of the carriage and walked over.

"You really impress me." Mo Lingtian tore off her veil and said frivolously.

Gu Qingzhi looked at him quietly, neither sad nor happy: "My lord praises me."

"This king is really reluctant to let you out." He picked her chin and said ambiguously.

"With the country, is the prince afraid that there will be no beauties?"

Mo Lingtian looked at her calm face and leaned back dully. He used to hate Gu Qingzhi's heartless smiling face and always wanted to abuse her, but she really changed her appearance. He suddenly felt that she was more interesting to him before.

Now she is too calm, and too plain.

Like a pool of stagnant water, there will be no storms.

"Have you ever complained about this king's treatment of you?" Mo Lingtian asked.

After Gu Qingzhi sat down in the carriage, he answered his question: "So what if you complain, what if you don't complain, my little life is in the hands of the prince, and I can just listen to the prince."

Mo Lingtian was not satisfied with the standard answer, but he was not dissatisfied either.

"The king went to Zui Hongchen today." Mo Lingtian changed the subject and said slowly.

"Earlier than I expected." She drooped her eyes and thought of something.

"Next, what are you going to do?" Mo Lingtian asked.

"Continue to tell the story."

"Then the king will wait for the good news."

The next day.

She went over to tell the story at the same time, and left after speaking, never staying for a moment.

Even if someone handed in a greeting card and wanted to make friends.

She also lightly refused.

Mo Canglan came to listen to her storytelling again, but she still didn't plan to meet, and she was not in a hurry, the more he disappeared, the greater her chance of winning.

"Lord Cao, she returned the greeting card I just handed over." The man with the appearance of a scholar whispered to Cao Xi.

"Okay, I know." Cao Xi said helplessly.

He knew she wouldn't agree.
