Chapter 121 Spiritual Beast

Xu Qi'an gritted his teeth, stepped out from the side of the eldest princess, and said with a fist: "This is my new work."

All of a sudden, everyone stared at him, and the second princess's dark eyes examined Xu Qi'an.

The crown prince frowned.

The third prince said unhappily: "What kind of poem can you write with a gong?"

He said it quite tactfully, meaning that you, a warrior, know what poetry is?

"Knock knock..." The eldest princess tapped the table with her green jade fingers, attracting the attention of the princes. She said calmly: "His name is Xu Qi'an, and his cousin is a student of Yunlu Academy."

What does this mean? For a moment, no one could understand what the eldest princess meant, and she seemed to like seeing her brothers and sisters with questions in their heads, but pretending to be indifferent.

A smile appeared on his cold face: "He wrote Farewell to Ziyang Layman. The poem that Lin'an read earlier was also written by Xu Qiyan."

The princes present showed an expression of disbelief, and suddenly shifted their gazes, staring at Xu Qiyan.

The original author of the once famous "Farewell to Ziyang Layman in Qingzhou at Sheep Pavilion" was actually right in front of him?

Yes, it is said that the poem was written by the cousin of a student of Yunlu Academy. Huaiqing just said that the cousin of this Tongluo is a student of Yunlu Academy... The third prince knew these rumors best, and he reacted immediately, knowing that what Huaiqing said could not be false.

This loyal dog who admired Huaiqing was the poet who wrote the poem "Fragrance Floating in the Moonlight at Dusk"... The second princess opened her charming peach blossom eyes and looked at Xu Qiyan without blinking. She had a slightly different view of this Tongluo.

Xu Qiyan was shocked at first, and subconsciously thought that his behavior of sleeping with the fragrant courtesan was closely monitored by the eldest princess.

But he soon figured it out. It was Princess Huaiqing who instructed the night watchman to follow him. So, the princess naturally knew the information about him.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince questioned: "But I heard that the one named Yang Ling in the Jiaofangsi is a student in Changle County."

The princess did not answer.

Xu Qiyan had to explain himself: "It was a pseudonym."

The Crown Prince was silent.

The Third Prince asked: "I think the poem just now is good. After getting drunk, I don't know that the sky is in the water... It is quite artistic, and I can't help but want to know the sequel."

The sons and grandsons of the dragons born in the royal family have received the best education. Even the second princess, who only likes to dress up and doesn't like to study, was forced to read the sage books for several years when she was a child.

With a solid cultural background and a good appreciation level, she returned to the poem after being interrupted by the Third Prince. Because she knew Xu Qiyan's identity, she became more and more expectant.

Xu Qian'an said slowly: "After getting drunk, I don't know that the sky is in the water, and the boat is full of clear dreams. "

After getting drunk, I don't know that the sky is in the water, and the boat is full of clear dreams.... The second princess whispered several times, and felt that these two lines of poetry outlined a beautiful scene that only existed in nursery rhymes.

On a quiet night, she wore a beautiful skirt and lay on the bow of the boat. Above her head was the bright and boundless starry sky, and the water reflected the galaxy.

The boat drifted on the lake, creating ripples, and she fell asleep peacefully.

Princess Lin'an's heart pounded twice.

The eldest princess' eyes flickered slightly, and she moved her neck subconsciously, as if she wanted to turn her head to look at Xu Qian'an, but she held back.

Maintaining the cold posture of a white lotus.

There was a strange silence around, and the princes chewed and savored these two lines of poetry carefully.

Unlike the second princess, the princes experienced a kind of ethereal air away from the world and at ease.

The atmosphere is relaxed, close to the nature of the world, carefree, free from the work of paperwork, the noise of stringed instruments, and the intrigue. At the same time, when waking up from the dream, there will be a trace of melancholy in the heart.

"Good poem, good poem..." The third prince slapped the table, excited, feeling that he had witnessed the birth of a masterpiece. This is an honor that no reader can resist.

"Is this a seven-character quatrain or a seven-character regulated verse?" asked the seventh prince, who was about the same age as Xu Qian'an.

"No more, only these two sentences..."

"!!!"

The princes were stunned, staring at him with complicated and strange expressions.

"Don't joke." The third prince said angrily, a little anxious and a little irritable: "What's next?"

He looked like a reader who was tortured crazy by the broken chapters, and finally had the opportunity to meet the author himself, suppressing the emotions that could explode at any time and said: I will give you one last chance, go and write!

"Impromptu poetry, I really have no choice..." Xu Qian'an felt a little ashamed. This poem was not in the textbook of the nine-year compulsory education.

Of course, as a cultured person, he could not have only learned poems in textbooks. He would also collect some excellent poems and works, but he could not remember them all. He could only remember the most essential sentences.

This poem is like this now.

"You, you..." The third prince pointed at Xu Qian'an, and was so angry that he couldn't speak.

The other princes watched coldly and secretly supported the third prince to deal with the broken chapter dog.

The eldest princess stood up to rescue him at the right time and said, "Xu Ningyan, accompany me for a walk."

"How unreasonable..." Looking at the backs of the two people leaving, the third prince slapped the table with anger.

"What a pity." The prince shook his head.

"Oh, I remember it." The second princess suddenly shouted, "I haven't asked him how the investigation of the Sangpo case is going."

It's him! His Royal Highness narrowed his eyes. No wonder he felt that the name Xu Qi'an sounded familiar. After being reminded by the Second Princess, he remembered this little man.

...

The eldest princess dismissed the guards and palace maids and walked side by side with Xu Qi'an on the lakeside.

Xu Qi'an instinctively lagged behind by half a body.

"What do you want to see me for?" The eldest princess stared at the calm lake, her voice revealing the texture of ice collision and the charm of a female voice.

"I have encountered some trouble in investigating the case, and all clues are broken at present." Xu Qi'an glanced at the eldest princess, and seeing that she didn't care much, his tone couldn't help but become a little more sincere, and told the eldest princess about the saltpeter mine and the case of the small flag officer silencing her.

"I already know all this." The eldest princess's beautiful face was expressionless, admiring the scenery of the lake.

She already knew? Well, with the eldest princess's ability, it is not difficult to know the information I found out.

Xu Qiyan gritted his teeth and planned to reveal something more inside: "Why did the demon clan blow up the Yongzhen Mountain and River Temple? This is a suspicious point and also a breakthrough in this case."

First verify whether it is the first generation of supervisors. If it is the first generation of supervisors, then the object of collusion with the demon clan can be locked in a rough range.

The princess retracted her gaze and looked at Xu Qiyan with her beautiful eyes, saying in a calm tone: "Under the Yongzhen Mountain and River Temple, there is indeed a terrible strong man or object sealed. And this secret is only known by my father."

"....." Xu Qiyan almost couldn't control his expression.

The princess even knew this?

She has realized that there is a sealed object under the Yongzhen Mountain and River Temple. Yes, after reading my investigation files, it is not surprising that the princess can infer this with her intelligence.

But Xu Qiyan didn't expect that the princess would talk to him about this frankly. You know, the secret of the Yongzhen Mountain and River Temple is only known by Emperor Yuan Jing.

"You are a rare talent. Are you willing to work for me?" Seeing Xu Qi'an's slight emotion, the princess knew that he was shocked. She chuckled and threw out an olive branch.

This was exactly what Xu Qi'an wanted. He wished in his heart but did not dare to say it. Since the princess was so good at dealing with things, Xu Qi'an immediately said:

"I will die for you."

Xu Qi'an was very familiar with this. He surrendered to his leader in the same way when he worked in the police station in his previous life.

Of course, they were just allies at work, mutually beneficial, not dogs for the imperial power... He added in his heart.

I believe that with the princess's emotional intelligence and IQ, it should not be difficult to maintain a relatively decent relationship.

The princess smiled brightly, and the lake light dimmed a little.

"Tell me, what did you find out?" Princess Lianhua's tone and attitude changed greatly, and the vague estrangement disappeared.

Xu Qian'an thought about it and decided to tell the truth, because he had just formed an "alliance" relationship with the princess, and he needed to show his own value.

Let the princess feel that this little brother is very strong and good.

In addition, he wanted to find out the seal of Sangpo, and he couldn't do without the help of the princess. Moreover, it was the princess who first opened the topic and told him frankly that only Emperor Yuan Jing knew this secret.

"According to my humble investigation, there is a black hand behind Zhou Chixiong manipulating all this, and it is also the demon clan that colluded." Xu Qian'an said.

The princess' eyes flashed with a strange color: "Why do you think so?"

Xu Qian'an said: "Zhao County Magistrate of Taikang County died in the dungeon of the government office this morning. I suspect he was silenced."

The princess lowered her eyes and nodded while thinking.

Xu Qiyan continued, "I have always wondered why the demons wanted to blow up Sangpo, and why the mastermind behind it wanted to collude with the demons? I sent people to check all the documents about Sangpo and found a very strange thing, which locked a time point: five hundred years ago!"

At this point, he paused, leaving time for the princess to be shocked.

But he was disappointed. The princess just frowned and digested the information.

Cijiu was right... This woman has a lot of gullies in her heart and is unfathomable.

"Five hundred years ago, the prince at that time accidentally fell into the water, and then got hysteria, and soon drowned in Sangpo." Xu Qiyan said.

The princess showed a look of realization: "I remember this past."

Xu Qiyan nodded, and then said: "Five hundred years ago, Emperor Wu revived the government and purged the scoundrels. There was a person who was an obstacle he could not avoid-the first generation of supervisors!"

Hearing this, the princess's face really changed color.

Xu Qi'an stared at the flawless beautiful face of the princess and asked a series of questions: "Why did the first supervisor pretend to be sick? Why did His Majesty keep the seal of Sangpo secret? Why did he not die after being suppressed for five hundred years? Why did the sorcerer of the Sitianjian know nothing about the past of the first supervisor?"

Is this a distortion of human nature or a loss of morality...Xu Qi'an added: "Of course, this is just my guess, but if I have to find a strong man who meets the requirements five hundred years ago, it must be the first supervisor."

The princess seemed shocked and did not speak for a long time. A gust of wind blew, causing the lake to ripple. She sighed: "So, you are looking for me..."

"I want to check the files that can't be found outside." Xu Qi'an said: "I found a seal formation in Sangpo, and there are Buddhist texts engraved on the formation stone pillars."

"Fo Wen?" The eldest princess's hands in her sleeves unconsciously stretched and shrank, staring at Xu Qi'an for a few seconds, then looked away, saying calmly: "Okay, after the banquet, I'll take you to Wenyuan Pavilion."

Xu Qi'an breathed a sigh of relief, and after thanking him, he suddenly heard a silver bell-like laughter and the sound of water splashing behind him.

Turning his head, the second princess in a fiery red dress stood on the back of a monster, holding the horns on the top of the monster's head with both hands, swaying to stabilize her body, with a graceful back.

The monster was snow-white all over, with fine scales, and a flat armor on its back, just enough for a person to stand. It was three meters long, with sharp claws on its belly, and looked like a dragon.

The princess turned around and explained, "This beast is called Linglong, a spiritual beast unique to Zhongzhou, with a gentle personality. It is said to be the water mount of the ancient emperor.

"It likes to eat purple air from the human world, so it has been raised in the palace by the royal families of successive dynasties, implying the purple air coming from the east. The orthodoxy of the human race."

The princess added, "This beast has the ability to see air. "

So it was this creature that was seen in the lake...Xu Qian'an said "hmm". Purple Qi is the unique luck of the princes and nobles. This monster needs the warmth of purple Qi to nourish it, which means it is a kind of auspicious beast.

The auspicious beast sometimes raised its head, sometimes walked close to the water, and the water splashed in circles. The second princess smiled like a flower, giggling like a hen, and had a lot of fun.

The princes watched with a smile, and the other two princesses ran to the shore, shouting for Lin'an to go ashore, and everyone took turns to play.

"Although the spirit dragon is gentle, it is also very proud. It will attack ordinary people who approach it. Lin'an is a princess, so she can play with it. "The eldest princess said, curling her lips and doing something that Xu Qian'an didn't expect.

She put her index finger on her lips and whistled hard.

When the spirit dragon heard the whistle, it raised its head high like a snake and turned sideways.

Everyone saw that the spirit dragon stiffened for a moment, and suddenly it became agitated, and a clear and loud cry came out of its throat, shaking its head and trying to throw the second princess off, as if being ridden by the second princess was a very shameful thing.

"Ah..."

"Plop! "The second princess screamed and fell into the lake.

The spirit dragon twisted its body madly and swam towards the eldest princess, breaking through the water and chirping continuously. It was hard to tell whether it was excited or angry.

Wow!

When it approached the shore, it rushed into the sky and fell heavily, hitting its head on the edge of the table, splashing turbulent mud.

A few drops of mud were splashed on the white dress of the eldest princess.

The eldest princess was a little surprised. The spirit beast seemed to be particularly close to her today. The reason she whistled was not to summon the spirit beast, but to attract its attention and turn her head to make Lin'an, whose lower body was unstable, fall into the water.

Who would have thought that the spirit dragon would react so strongly that it shook its head and threw Lin'an away.

Why is the style of the eldest princess a bit like the scholars of Yunlu Academy... so sinister... My little brother is also so sinister and vicious... Oh, the eldest princess studied in Yunlu Academy... Xu Dalang has a deeper understanding of Xu Erlang's warning.

Sure enough, only the sinister people can understand the sinister people best.

The movement on the water surface startled the princes. The prince rushed to the shore first and called the guards to save people.

"Linglong really likes Huaiqing more."

"Does this mean that Huaiqing's purple energy is stronger than Lin'an?"

"It doesn't seem right... Linglong is not very enthusiastic about us. Look at its servile appearance. I only saw it once when I was a child, and it was facing my father at that time."

"Huaiqing is over..."

The eldest princess lifted her skirt and walked towards Linglong with a faint smile, intending to ride it.

Here, including the prince, all the princes and princesses were also watching this scene.
