Emperor Phoenix

Chapter 34

"You didn't remind him?" Qin Changge smiled.

"How can he hear me?" Xiao Baozi looked helpless, "Once he ordered me porridge with lotus leaves and ginkgo. Knowing that the sugar in the porridge was wrong, I went back and told Uncle Qi Fan, and he scolded Uncle Heng."

When he filed a complaint here, the super protective mother immediately ignored the next two sentences, smiled sinisterly, and said, "This kid took you out, how dare you be so careless?" After laughing silently for a while, Xiao Baozi stared at With his mother's smile, he shrinks back, but sees his mother beckoning to him, "Come, come."

"what?"

"Next time you go to Sijichun with Uncle Heng to drink porridge, you will go to the kitchen and teach the cook to make a porridge. You will recommend it to Qi Heng, and you will say that you will be more radiant and different after drinking it. Uncle Heng will be very happy of."

Glancing at his mother, Xiao Baozi smiled even more maliciously, and said innocently: "Really? Okay."

"Here, first put the sheep kidney, mutton, medlar, and round-grained rice into the pot, add some water, cook the porridge on a slow fire, add leeks when it is about to boil, and then boil it for two or three times. Just say that this porridge is called Yingzihuanfa porridge, and the more you drink it, the more graceful it will be."

"Oh," Xiao Baozi recited silently, laughing like a smirk, although he didn't know what kind of porridge it was, but the villain's idea must be bad, it's true to go with mother.

"Love Xiliang, love martial arts, love mother", the three good children Xiao Rong, Mr. Xiao, smiled and went out with porridge on his back to see those pigeons that his mother entrusted to him.

Qin Changge wrote a letter with a pen.

"Mr. Chengqi's words are numerous: the letter has been read, and the words are pig and chicken, but there are clouds and mists, but no trace of people, parallel four li six, heavy classics and extravagant prose, gorgeous diction, golden thread and jade clothes, only the remains of the found bones are gone, You are so stingy, you are so stingy, your phoenix alliance is so elite, secret reports are like merchants bargaining, secret beliefs are like rotten Confucian poems, if Ruiyi knows behind him, he will surely startle the world, and sigh with his palm: There will be successors."

After finishing writing, he put down his pen, thinking of Qi Fan's expression of crooked nose when he received the letter, Qin Changge smiled slightly, she is not an unreasonable person, today's sarcasm really feels that Qi Fan's ability is more than that, why is he so hesitant ?

After sealing the letter paper and releasing the flying pigeons, Qin Changge caught a glimpse of Princess Wenchang standing by the bamboo forest, bending slightly to talk happily with Xiao Rong, Qin Changge walked over slowly, Xiao Rong immediately raised her hand Things rushed over and shouted happily: "Mother, Aunt Princess gave me a baby."

Glancing briefly at the princess, Qin Changge bent over to embrace his son, and said with a smile, "Idiot, I'm calling you wrong. It should be Aunt Princess, but you're not allowed to call him that in public."

From the corner of his eyes, he saw Wen Chang's sleeves moving slightly, and he seemed to sigh softly, but he also said softly: "Then call Auntie, Auntie's greeting gift for you."

After glancing at the golden crossbow, Qin Changge said, "Rong'er, have you thanked Aunt Princess?"

Baozi Xiao smiled and said, "Thank you, Auntie. Auntie is the most beautiful, and Auntie is the best."

Qin Changge had already guessed his son's sloppy character of ungrateful for profit, and didn't bother to get angry with him, so he just said, "Have you learned it?"

Xiao Rong proudly said: "Uncle Rong taught me."

"Then go to practice, you are not allowed to shoot pigeons, and you are not allowed to face people."

Xiao Rong happily hugged the little crossbow while playing, Wen Chang looked at his little back and smiled wistfully, "Ah Jue also loved these when he was young..."

Qin Changge turned around slowly and looked directly into her eyes: "This little crossbow belongs to Xiao Jue, right?"

"Yeah..." Wen Chang, who was still immersed in his memories, responded obsessively. When he came back to his senses, he was startled, and hurriedly waved his hands: "No...no, no, don't get me wrong, Ah Jue won't know... ...This is my collection of A Jue's childhood plaything..."

Seeing her anxious, Qin Changge laughed, and said in a harmonious voice: "Don't be nervous, I didn't mean that, even if you told Xiao Jue about Rong'er's identity, he wouldn't believe it, what I mean is, why bother? "

Wenchang calmed down, and sighed sadly: "I saw that his father and son did not know each other, and I don't know when they will recognize each other. Thinking that Ah Jue has been on the throne for several years, and Rong'er has not grown a son after that, I always feel bad... "

With a forced smile, she continued: "If you don't let Rong'er call me aunt, then you won't recognize Ah Jue as your husband. Forgive me for asking, what are your plans for Ah Jue?"

"I have always acted without contempt or indulgence, because a person has only one life, and no one has the right to disregard human life," Qin Changge looked up at the sky and clear clouds. Yi Youyou: "So no matter how suspicious Xiao Jue is, until the truth is fully understood, I will not kill him, and if Rui Yi was really killed by him in the previous life, then no matter how much love he had in the past, no matter how much he The husband who was once considered me once swore to be of one heart forever, and I will never show any pity or hesitation—I will kill him."

The last three words are casual and careless, but because of the carelessness, it shows the firmness of her heart. Wenchang only felt that these three words were like three knives, which made her shudder and feel pain in her heart.

Desperately murmured: "The love in the past has turned into dust, and we don't know each other again, and we are separated by nine layers... How unbearable is the fate..."

"Unbearable?" Qin Changge turned around and smiled, "If the love in the past can be turned into a shocking sea of ​​​​fire in Changle Palace, if the kindness in the past can be a sharp knife that digs out my eyes, if the love in the past can become a hidden weapon spring , that's really unbearable."

"No matter how many times this world of mortals has gone, it's never for the sake of making mortals become Buddhas immediately." Qin Changge smiled softly, and his eyes shifted.

"It's just to pay off the grievances."

Wenchang didn't hear Qin Changge's last two words, her eyes were staring at Xiao Rong who was not far away, the boy didn't immediately learn to shoot with the golden crossbow, but played with it very curiously.

Qin Changge's eyes naturally fell on the golden crossbow that she hadn't noticed before.

The small crossbow is extremely delicate, the ebony crossbow arm is inlaid with gold leaf, the crossbow is pure gold, light and convenient, and brilliant. The arrows in the crossbow groove are made of golden feathers and white wood, which are much smaller than ordinary arrows. It is really cute and practical. good plaything.

However, Mr. Xiao seems to value destruction more than having fun, because he is working extremely hard... to dismantle the crossbow.

Prying iron rods, knocking stones, dismantling the pedals with insufficient strength, wishing to use their teeth, sweating profusely against the solid golden crossbow.

This kid seems to have a lot of talent for weapons. Not long after, the golden crossbow was dismantled by him, and there were some heavy parts that were difficult to break apart. On the ground, they muttered and fiddled with each other for a while, then suddenly said: "Oh, that's it!"

He raised his head and said triumphantly: "Mother, Aunt Princess, I understand, this thing is so simple, just hang the string on this "teeth" (hook), and then pull the "hanging knife" (that is, the trigger), the string will come off After the teeth, bounce off quickly, and just fly the arrows in the arrow slots."

After thinking for a while, he said, "You can only shoot one arrow at a time? No, it's better to shoot a few more arrows." Squatting on the ground, he fiddled with it again.

Wen Chang couldn't laugh or cry, the golden crossbow he had treasured for many years, the most cherished thing of Ah Jue's childhood, was delivered to Young Master Xiao, and within a quarter of an hour it was finished.

Qin Changge stared at the parts on the ground, frowned suddenly, stepped forward, picked up his son, and pushed him aside.

Xiao Rong raised his head in confusion, Qin Changge had already taken a branch, tapped it lightly to test the position, hooked the original position of the hanging knife, and pulled the box-shaped crossbow with the crossbow machine inside.

Nu Guo immediately trembled finely and quickly, followed by a low cracking sound, the box body shattered, and a large flying needle as thin as a cow's hair shot out, falling on the grass like a green rain, all over the ground. The emerald green grass, withered and withered in an instant, and scorched black in an instant.

Xiao Baozi gasped loudly and could be heard three miles away.

What a powerful poison!
With a cold heart, Qin Changge secretly scolded himself for being careless. When he mentioned the old things just now, his mind was scattered, and he didn't notice the difference in the crossbow. If he tried to shoot first, he was afraid that as soon as he set up the crossbow, the crossbow machine inside the crossbow would be shaken, which would kill him immediately.

It was also fortunate that he removed the hanging knife first, otherwise if the hanging knife was removed later, it would have triggered the crossbow trigger and killed him.

I glanced at it just now, and found that the seam of the crossbow was slightly larger, as if it had been disassembled, but Rong'er didn't even disassemble the crossbow, she was suspicious for a moment, and she found this vicious mechanism.

Grabbing his son's hand to see if he was not poisoned, Qin Changge heaved a sigh of relief, frowned and turned around, looking at Wenchang.

Staring at the withered grass on the ground, Wen Chang was already stunned and unable to speak. When Qin Changge turned to look at her, he gasped and murmured: "Changge...it's not me..."

"I know it's not you," Qin Changge sneered, "How can you kill someone with something you gave out with your own hands? It's just Wenchang, where did you get this golden crossbow?"

Wen Chang said: "It has been kept in the box in my room, with three locks, and only Qimo and I have the keys."

Qimo is Wenchang's servant girl. She grew up with her personal servant girl in Huainan Palace, the most caring servant girl.

Immediately, Qimo was announced, and Wenchang only asked Qimo if he would give the key to anyone. The always sharp and capable maid hurriedly flipped through her skirt, took out a bunch of copper keys, and said in surprise, "This is the key." The key has always been on the servant, and has never been taken off, let alone given to anyone, although the servant is dull, he still understands this point."

Qin Changge looked at the bunch of keys and said with a smile, "Sister Qimo, can you take a look?"

Wenchang declared to his cronies that Qin Changge had kindness to him and should not be ignored by others. Naturally, Qimo did not dare to refuse, so she untied the key and handed it over.
