Daoist, I am not fragrant!

"Where are you going!" Zhong Tang suddenly came back to his senses, seeing Huang Li'er's little cat shadow was about to disappear into the abandoned house, and hurriedly chased after it.

The room hadn't been cleaned for some time, and as soon as Zhong Tang opened the door, a cloud of dust stirred up, causing him to cough a few times.Li Bizhi, who came after him, silently cast a spell to fix the wind, which was better.

"This is...the place where the former prince's old things are stored?" Huang Li'er scurried around and disappeared in the blink of an eye. Zhong Tang had no choice but to tentatively walk into the depths, and naturally saw the abandoned house. The rows of dusty bookshelves, and the messy books, calligraphy and paintings on them.

"It should be so." Li Bizhi reached out his hand from a nearby shelf and took down a thin booklet, and after opening it, he saw the word "Cheng" marked on the title page.

"It is rumored that the former crown prince liked painting and calligraphy, and most of the things left behind are of this kind."

"What Daoist Li said is right," the two of them were talking, when they saw Eunuch Lou come in, and said with great regret: "That Your Highness not only likes calligraphy and painting, but he is also very good at it, even His Majesty once boasted about it." .”

Speaking of this, it reminded Zhong Tang of the picture of the white crane mentioned by Wen Wei before. He originally wanted to try to get some words out of his father-in-law, but when he lowered his eyes, he thought again, the old eunuch in front of him might be so old-fashioned. It's hard for him, a monster, to be confused, so he said straightforwardly: "Since your majesty likes it, I think that your majesty at that time also often studied calligraphy and painting?"

Eunuch Lou looked sideways, as Zhong Tang expected, he didn't mean to be sullen or surprised, but nodded clearly: "Yes, that His Highness often presents calligraphy and paintings, and His Majesty has always liked them until—"

In the eyes of Zhong Tang and Li Bizhi, Eunuch Lou said frankly: "Until he presented a pair of lame white cranes."

"Eunuch, did you see that painting with your own eyes?" Li Bizhi asked again after hearing the words.

"I've seen it," Lou Eunuch sighed, he really didn't want to mention the past, so he simply pointed to a bookshelf: "The painting was also stored here later, and it was the old slave who brought it in with my own hands. .”

Zhong Tang didn't expect that the paintings that angered the emperor could still be kept, but it would be great if he could see the original paintings right now.

Just as he was thinking, Li Bizhi had already walked to the bookshelf, took down a worm-eaten paulownia box, and opened it to find two scrolls inside.

Zhong Tang stretched out his hand and tapped on both of them with his fingertips, then took out one at random, brushed off the dust and unfolded it gently.

But I don't want to see that the painting is not a white crane, but a few lychees in a crystal dish.

Perhaps due to the age, the vermilion used to paint the lychee shells has become mottled, but the seal on the lower left is bright red and dazzling.

"Rong Wang Li Xiu undertakes the seal."

Zhong Tang frowned, Li Bizhi immediately brushed the seal with his finger, but saw a few drops of cinnabar juice mixed with blood seeping from the paper and falling into Zhong Tang's hand.

Eunuch Lou naturally also saw this vision, and couldn't help frowning: "This is—"

"Someone used cinnabar and blood as a guide to cast a spell." Of course, this matter cannot be explained clearly in a few words. Li Bizhi only talked briefly, but Eunuch Lou could understand it.

Zhong Tang leaned lightly on a slightly cleaner bookshelf, raised his hand to make the few drops of cinnabar juice condense in his fingers, and after thinking for a while, he asked: "Eunuch Lou, do you know that the eunuch Liu who died was able to get along with the former eunuch back then?" What is the relationship between the prince...or this lychee fruit?"

"Relationship?" At this time, Eunuch Lou was in trouble. Even if he was in the palace, eunuch Liu might not easily be able to touch such a precious fruit as lychees. What could be the connection?

"If you have to say something about the connection, the old slave would have thought of a theory." Lou Gonggong recalled it again and again, and then said: "I heard people say in the past that His Highness was very lenient to those who served around him, and often Reward them for what you spend."

"Perhaps this eunuch Liu was also a person who received a reward from His Royal Highness back then, so there must be such a plate of fruit among the rewards." Speaking of this, Eunuch Lou also smiled helplessly: "After all, this matter is too trivial, Mr. That's all I can think of."

What Eunuch Lou said was also right, if it is said that the picture of the white crane was a major event that shocked the emperor, only some people still remember it.And there is only a plate of lychees and a eunuch in front of him, so it is normal for no one to know.

Thinking in this way, Zhong Tang took out the remaining painting scroll from the paulownia box. After unfolding it, as expected, what was painted on the painting was the white crane with a broken foot, and in the corner of the drawing paper, there was also There is also a seal.

"This painting..." After seeing too many seals, there was nothing unusual about it, Zhong Tang looked carefully at the white crane on the painting instead.In all fairness, the former prince's painting skills are really good. Although the white crane has a broken foot, it doesn't look ugly or embarrassed, it just adds a bit of sadness.

"Your Highness, do you really want to dedicate this painting to His Majesty?"

After many years, when Eunuch Lou saw this painting of white cranes again, he was still very sad: "When His Majesty received this painting, he was immediately furious, but that His Highness never made a plea..."

"It's just that the old slave later heard some broken words from the little eunuch in the East Palace, saying that His Royal Highness originally prepared a picture of a Rui Crane, but I don't know who changed it to a picture of a Remnant Crane."

As Lou Gonggong said, he seemed to be immersed in the memories of the past. The royal disputes were ruthless, but after all, he was the one who watched the former prince grow up. Even if he was really hard-hearted, he would be sad.

He took the two paintings from Zhong Tang's hands and rolled them up carefully. When he was about to put them back into the paulownia box, he was taken aback: "This...why is there a painting missing from this box?"

"One picture is missing?" Li Bizhi narrowed his cold eyes slightly, and then asked: "How does father-in-law know that one picture is missing?"

"The three paintings in this paulownia box were all taken in by myself, so I can't remember them wrong." Eunuch Lou obviously sensed something was wrong, pointing to the two scrolls and said: "His Majesty ordered the palace to search for His Highness Most of the relics that were handed in were the objects of His Highness who was established as the crown prince, only these three paintings were covered with the private seal of King Rong, and the old servant put them away alone."

After hearing this, Zhong Tang immediately asked: "Then, do you still remember, what is painted on the third painting?"

"The painting is a small pavilion." Although Eunuch Lou is getting older, his memory has not faded: "It is a small pavilion in Bi'an Palace. When His Royal Highness was young, he lived there with Concubine Cui Gui for several years. .”

"Then is that pavilion still there?" Zhong Tang followed up and asked again.

It's a pity that this time, Eunuch Lou shook his head and sighed: "After that Highness went down, Concubine Cui also... Within two years, Bi'an Palace was burned down by thunder."

Although the pavilion in the painting is no longer there, Zhong Tang and Li Bizhi are not very discouraged.After these incidents, they had a faint feeling that the things in the painting didn't seem to be the key.

The real problem... I'm afraid it's on the private seal engraved with "Prince Rong Lixiu's seal".

"Meow..." Following the sound of a few scrolls falling, Huang Li'er suddenly emerged from the bookshelf with a dusty little head and called out to Zhong Tang.

"Yo, you still know?" Zhong Tang listened to Huang Li'er's movement, walked over a few steps, reached out and tapped its gray nose in disgust: "Where did this little dirty cat come from, I don't recognize it."

Huang Li'er licked Zhong Tang's hand flatteringly, but turned around and jumped behind the bookshelf, and meowed at him a few times.

"Where are you going?" Zhong Tang just wanted to call Huang Li'er out, but Li Bizhi held his hand.

The yellow raccoon behind the bookshelf was still barking, and his voice gradually became a little hurried, and Zhong Tang could hear something was wrong.

"Let's follow and have a look." Li Bizhi said briefly, and he cleaned up the broken bricks and scrolls jammed next to the bookshelf, and the two of them saw the yellow raccoon behind him who was raising his head and calling.

Seeing that they finally followed, Huang Li'er turned around and ran further into the house, Zhong Tang had no choice but to follow.

I never thought that this house doesn't look big from the outside, but the inside is full of twists and turns, if there is no yellow raccoon to guide it, it would be really confusing.

Zhong Tang and Li Bizhi followed Huang Li'er and walked for a while before seeing the kitten stop by a seemingly ordinary wall covered with moss.

"Meow..." The yellow raccoon rubbed against the wall, kept barking, and even ran back and bit the hem of Zhong Tang's clothes.

"What's here?" Zhong Tang rarely saw the yellow raccoon in such a hurry, so he followed its strength to the wall, and when he was about to touch it, Li Bizhi grabbed his arm.

"Don't move," Li Bizhi frowned slightly, flicking his dark blue robe sleeves lightly, ripples appeared on the wall like water: "This is the spell of the Golden Crow Temple."

"The talisman of the Golden Crow Temple?" Zhong Tang was even more puzzled now, how could there be a talisman of the Golden Crow Temple in the abandoned house where the former prince's old things were stored.

Li Bizhi stared at the dimly lit wall for a moment, but the wooden sword was already floating in front of him. In the blink of an eye, the blue light suddenly appeared, and the ripples turned into solid ice, but was ruthlessly smashed by the wooden sword.

Li Bizhi turned to hold Zhong Tang in his arms, and did not let him go until the cold light faded away.

And the wall after the spell was broken didn't seem to have changed much, but——Zhong Tang was slightly startled, but saw a comatose child in the corner of the wall.
