The king is the guide of the ministers

, smiled lightly: "Father has worked hard all day, and he will be hungry now. I'll go and see if dinner is ready!"

After finishing speaking, Liu Ci saluted, then turned around and opened the door to leave.

But before his feet crossed the threshold, he felt a tingling pain in the back of his neck, and then he fainted on the ground...

"Teacher, who is this?" Xuanyuan Lingye saw Liu Wenbo stab Liu Ci with a silver needle.He didn't try to stop him, he just wanted to see what kind of medicine Liu Wenbo was selling in his gourd.

Liu Wenbo smiled embarrassingly, put the silver needle back into his sleeve, and said to Xuanyuan Lingye: "There is some medicine on the silver needle, which can make people fall asleep for a while. I implore Your Highness to take Liu Ci away from here ! All the consequences, I will bear it alone."

Xuanyuan Lingye picked Liu Ci up and said, "Teacher, as long as Father insists, Liu Ci will definitely be captured on Dongting's land."

However, Liu Wenbo said with a deep meaning: "It's only a moment to avoid it for a while. After Dong Ting changes, how will he be in the mood to look for Liu Ci..."

Xuanyuan Lingye heard the words, stopped talking, and walked out of the study with Liu Ci in his arms.

"Wait a minute, Your Highness!"

Liu Wenbo suddenly stopped Xuanyuan Lingye: "Your Highness, please come with me. There is a secret road leading directly to the Chanxin Temple outside the city. His Highness Wronged, take Xiaoci from there."

When Xuanyuan Lingye heard this, a look of surprise flashed across his face.

How could there be a secret way to Chanxin Temple in the Taifu Mansion?

Or, is there any secret between the two?

Full of doubts, Xuanyuan Lingye carried Liu Ci in his arms and followed Liu Wenbo to Liu Wenbo's room.I saw Liu Wenbo rolled up his sleeves to take off the bow hanging on the wall, raised his hand and turned the bronze ring on the wall three times clockwise and then anticlockwise five times.

The wall began to shake, and in an instant, a gap appeared on the wall.

Xuanyuan Lingye remained silent all this time, quietly watching the movements in Liu Wenbo's hands.Watching him take the lantern that was placed aside and light it, holding the lantern in one hand and the bow in the other, he walked into the dark passage.

Although the secret passage was very dark, it didn't smell damp and moldy at all, and the air inside was not dirty. Xuanyuan Lingye could be sure that Liu Wenbo often walked around in it.But, what is he going to Chanxin Temple for if he has nothing to do?

Ask God to worship Buddha?

Xuanyuan Lingye raised her eyebrows in disdain.

This secret road has no bends and is almost a straight line.This reduced the journey from Taifu Mansion to Chanxin Temple, which took several hours, to less than one hour.

"The Third Highness must be wondering why there is such a secret passage in the Taifu Mansion."

"Not necessarily." Xuanyuan Lingye replied lightly.

Liu Wenbo smiled and didn't say anything else. He walked to the end of the secret passage. The exit there was very narrow and only one person could pass through.Liu Wenbo walked out, but Xuanyuan Lingye who was holding Liu Ci was stuck inside.

But seeing Liu Wenbo blew out the lantern, he put his bow on the ground, stretched out his hand and said to Xuanyuan Lingye: "Your Highness, give Xiaoci to this humble minister."

Xuanyuan Lingye looked at the exit, frowned slightly, and handed Liu Ci's feet to Liu Wenbo. Liu Wenbo held Liu Ci's ankles tightly, and Xuanyuan Lingye hugged his body and sent him out.

After coming out, Liu Wenbo turned a few times on the copper ring on the wall here and closed the door of the secret passage.

Xuanyuan Lingye took a closer look, only to realize that it was a meditation room.

But seeing Liu Wenbo slowly reach out his hand to caress the big Zen character on the wall, he sighed and said, "Your Highness, you don't have to worry. This Zen room was left by an old friend of Weichen..."

Old friend?

Xuanyuan Lingye noticed that when Liu Wenbo mentioned his old friend, his eyes were looking at Liu Ci with nostalgia.I have already understood it in my heart.

"Where is that old friend of the Tai Tuo now?"

"He died...for many years..."

Xuanyuan Lingye glanced sideways at Liu Wenbo, but there was a touch of indifference in his deep eyes, and he only heard him say: "The dead are like husbands. Taifu don't need to be too sad."

"Your Highness is very right."

Afterwards, they took some detours, and when they left the Chanxin Temple, the red clouds in the sky had already faded away, but the hazy Shang Xuanyue was without the company of stars, hanging alone in the sky.

Seeing only an empty and desolate place, Xuanyuan Lingye took out a thin bamboo tube and let out a dark light towards the sky.

"Someone will come to pick Liu Ci up in a while."

"Thank you Third Highness..."

It didn't take a while to hear the sound of horseshoes, and Wu Ying came galloping in a carriage: "Your Highness!"

Xuanyuan Lingye carried Liu Ci into the carriage, and said to Wuying, "Send him to His Highness the Fourth Highness. We have already explained everything there."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Hearing this, Wuying was very surprised, but he didn't dare to ask any more questions.When he raised his hand and was about to wave the rein, he heard Liu Wenbo step forward, handed the bow in his hand to Wuying, and said, "Wait a minute, let Xiaoci hold this, and give it to him when he wakes up." .”

After Wuying took down the bow, he swung his whip and left.

Xuanyuan Lingye watched all this calmly...

Wuying had already gone away with the carriage, but the shaking carriage woke Liu Ci up, "..." What's going on?As soon as he opened his eyes, although the things in front of him were blurred, Liu Ci immediately felt that something was wrong.

He beat his drowsy head lightly, carefully recalling everything that happened before.

Sneak attack?

Xuanyuan Lingye?Or foster father?

Liu Ci sat up, and after getting used to it, he realized that he was now in a speeding carriage.Immediately, he patted the carriage and shouted: "Stop! Stop!"

Wuying, who was alive, ignored Liu Ci's noise.

Soon, Liu Ci stopped making noise, but seeing him lift the curtain of the car, looking at the rapidly retreating scenery on both sides, he thought to himself: If you jump down, you will be fine, but you will definitely not be able to find your way back.

But I saw him jumping onto the roof of the car and walking straight ahead.But he saw Wuying who was driving the car.

It turned out to be this kid!Young master, my throat hurts from shouting, but he actually ignored me!

Liu Ci sat at the front of the carriage, looked down at Wuying, and said with a smile, "Brother Wuying, you're busy!"

Feeling that Wuying Liu Ci climbed onto the roof of the carriage, he slowed down a long time ago, he didn't want to throw Liu Ci down because of his mistake.

"Woo--" With a light drink, he reined in the reins.

Wuying stopped the carriage without turning his head, and said calmly, "Young master, please get back into the carriage. If you get hurt, Wuying can't afford it."

On the other hand, Liu Ci was swinging his legs leisurely, enjoying the cool evening breeze: "Brother Wuying, I have something to discuss with you, please send me back."

"No." Wuying refused decisively.

When Liu Ci was thinking about how to persuade Wuying to send him back, he heard the sound of horseshoes coming from the front.Looking at the small group of people on war horses who were getting closer, the corners of Liu Ci's lips could not help twitching slightly: Do people here like to go out for a walk at night?

but……

Liu Ci still looked at the group of people in front.

The equipment on those people is really cool!The armor glowing faintly in the moonlight, and even the mounts under them looked cooler than normal.Every man has his own dream of being a hero, and the people in front of him are exactly Liu Ci's dream.

only……

When Wuying saw the young man at the head clearly, he got off the carriage, knelt down and saluted, "Kowtow to His Highness Fifth."

The somewhat arrogant young man didn't even look at Wuying, he only heard a snort, and said: "Why is the guard beside the third brother not waiting by the master's side in the middle of the night, but why come here with a carriage? "

Wuying didn't answer the Fifth Prince's words.Because Xuanyuan Lingye had confessed, Liu Ci's affairs were absolutely not allowed to be revealed.

Seeing that Wuying ignored him, the fifth prince, who had been unhappy before, became even more annoyed now, but seeing him raise the sword in his hand, he stabbed at Wuying.Wuying didn't dodge, he gritted his teeth and waited for the sword to strike.

But the sword stopped less than two inches away from Wuying's throat.

Wuying looked at the fifth prince suspiciously, but saw that the murderous eyes of the fifth prince fell on him.Taking a closer look, Wuying understood now that the Fifth Prince's sword was entangled in a thin steel cable, and the person who saved him from the Fifth Prince's sword was Liu Ci.Wuying stood up and took two steps back.

"Bold madman! Do you know who this highness is!" The fifth prince roared angrily.

Liu Ci's hand holding the wire rope was getting tired, seeing Wuying standing aside, he also retracted the wire rope.After giving the Fifth Prince an extremely contemptuous look, he jumped out of the carriage, stood beside Wu Ying, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Wu Ying, you don't need to be polite to this kind of rubbish! !"

Wuying is very speechless, that is the Fifth Prince!Killing him, even thousands of Liu Cis, would not be enough to kill him!

"Kill me?" The fifth prince's handsome face became a little ferocious, "Just because you are like this? What a joke! Don't even weigh yourself!"

Hearing this, Liu Ci smiled and said: "I haven't weighed it recently, but I weighed it before. The net weight is about 56 kilograms. How many taels are there? You can convert it yourself."

Seeing the fifth prince's distorted face, Wuying couldn't help frowning: Now I can't leave even if I want to...

Sure enough, the fifth prince ordered: "Take down that troublemaker!"

In an instant, eight shadows flashed, and Liu Ci was surrounded in the middle.Liu Ci teased Wuying, and asked in a low voice: "Is that person really Xuanyuan Lingye?"
