"Luo Dan, this princess is planning to attend a poetry meeting. The society held in the afternoon is probably about to start now. We finally met. It seems that you have nothing to do. How about we go and have a look together?"< br>
The princess coughed a few times and pretended to invite casually, which seemed a bit covert.
Lodan pondered for a while and heard the little expectation in the princess's voice. After some hesitation, he finally did not choose to reject her.
"Okay, then it's better to be respectful than to obey."
The princess was not disgraced, she seemed very happy, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.
"Well, since you don't have an invitation, just follow me."
Lodan had no objection to this, and the other two naturally did the same.
At this time, Pei Sheng quietly approached Luo Dan, looking like he was gossiping.
“Captain, I really didn’t expect that we just met hydrangeas, and now we can come to participate in the poetry meeting of the upper class. Today is really an eye-opener. I didn’t know that this kind of poetry meeting for dignitaries , I’m really curious about what it’s like inside.”
After hearing this, Luo Dan just chuckled and poured cold water on it without hesitation.
"Today should be an unlucky day. I encountered a hydrangea to attract a bride, but it happened to fall on my head. I was rescued by a princess who had a vague relationship with me. Now we are still invited. Go to the poetry festival, anyway, I I have an ominous premonition that the poetry this time will not be so calm. Pei Sheng, don’t think too well, or underestimate it.”
Pei Sheng originally felt good about himself and participated in the poetry meeting. Very happy.
When Leng Buding heard these words, his enthusiasm was extinguished.
"Huh? Captain, I'm not telling you, you are too disappointed, but you are right, I don't know what to do with the Poetry Club, so you should be more careful."
Listen to Luo Dan. As soon as Pei Sheng thought about it carefully, this was really the case.
I can’t say how good this trip was, but there were constant turmoils.
This time the poetry meeting will be good, but we still have to be careful.
While the two were whispering, they quickly arrived at the location.
When mentioning the poetry meeting, the princess also seemed quite proud.
“This poetry gathering has been held for a long time. Only those who are specifically invited can appear here, and only those who follow the invitation can enter. I don’t know how many people are outside. I want to go in and open my eyes. , you should cherish this opportunity. In addition to appreciating poems, there will also be appreciation of objects. There are many various treasures, and you can also take advantage of this to appreciate them. These are all rare."
Obviously, this is also a manifestation of high-ranking officials trying to promote themselves.
When the princess mentioned this matter, she was condescending.
After hearing this, Pei Sheng's eyes flashed with anticipation and curiosity. Being able to be so sought after by these nobles, he wondered what strange things were inside.
However, Rodan's expression was not what the princess thought.
There is no envy, no curiosity, and no expectation.
Just peace, just the peace of letting the unknown take its course.
The princess slowly clenched her fists, a hint of unwillingness quietly rising in her heart.
It's like this again, it's like this every time, it seems that nothing can shake Luo Dan, and nothing can make Luo Dan tempted.
This time, the poem must open his eyes. The princess secretly determined in her heart that even if she took out her own signature things, she would be moved by him.
At this moment, the princess had a raging fighting spirit.
Luo Dan seemed indifferent and seemed not very interested in these things.
He is indeed not interested. He cares more about cultivation than the poetry meeting.
The reason why I came here is just to return a favor to the princess.
It is impossible for the princess to help him with the front foot. He is unreasonable with the back foot. That would be too arrogant.
The princess walked in the front. Many people knew her and saluted her.
"See the princess, the princess is a thousand years old!"
"The princess is here. The little ladies have been waiting for you for a long time."
"Princess, I haven't seen you for some days. I have It’s so radiant that you’re here.”
“I don’t know what poems the princess brought today. I took them out to open the eyes of the sisters. Only the princess’s vision can make us admire.”
Everyone complimented the princess and praised her. Looking at her, his eyes fell on Luo Dan again.
"Eh? Princess, where did the two young masters you brought behind you come from? You have always taken care of others. Is it possible that you are also good at poetry and prose?"
There are those who are aggressive, In order to show off in front of the princess, he snorted coldly, pointed at Luodan with one hand, and said loudly.
“It’s rare to see a princess bring someone here, why don’t I compete with this young master and see how good the princess is with someone?”
Luo Dan:...
It feels like I'm involved in a strange Shura field, but I can't explain it clearly.
When the man pointed at Rodan, the princess's face had already darkened.
"He is not an outsider, nor is he just someone I brought. He is my friend. Today I brought him here specially to open his eyes."
As soon as the word friend came out, This shows the importance of Rodan in the princess's heart.
At this moment, everyone’s expressions changed. No one dared to make fun of Rodan.
“It turned out to be a friend of the princess. As expected, he is a man of extraordinary talent.”
"It's rare for a princess to bring friends here, so of course we have to entertain them well."
The one who said the competition before was now kneeling on the ground with a plop.
"Princess, the little one is guilty, the little one is short-sighted."
I thought it was just a play pet of the princess, but I didn't expect it to be her friend. Friends don't have the same relationship as ordinary people. Likewise, this person naturally does not dare to make mistakes.
Princess Suxing is in a good mood now, but she doesn’t punish him.
But his face was still quite cold, even impatient.
"Okay, let's go down. I don't like people with such a lack of discernment around me."
As soon as these words came out, this person's path forward was basically cut off.
A person who is disliked by the princess will naturally not be accepted by anyone.
This man obviously realized this, and his face turned pale. However, compared to making the princess angry, and even asking the princess to punish him, he was just disliked, which was considered a blessing in misfortune.
He tried hard to suppress the panic in his heart and bowed obediently.
"Yes, princess, I will leave now."
When he left, his back looked sad. He had offended someone he shouldn't have offended. He was destined not to attend this poetry meeting. The connections I finally made here will disappear one day.
"Alas..."
The man let out a long sigh, unable to express the sadness in his heart.
Even before leaving, he blamed Luo Dan for everything and glared at him sadly.
Like a little daughter-in-law whose husband was seduced by a vixen.
The corners of Luo Dan's mouth twitched, feeling that he was really innocent.
It was obviously none of his business, but in the end it was still his fault.
After the princess finished dealing with the man, she looked at Luo Dan aside.
"Let's go, Luo Dan, this princess will take you around."
Although Luo Dan is not very interested, he still gives the princess face.
"Thank you very much, princess." In addition to Luodan, there were actually a large group of people following the princess.
Everyone listens while walking. Sometimes when they encounter a leaf, a flower, or a lake, they will stop and recite poems and poems, chanting about the wind and the moon.
Luodan walked quietly to the back, treating himself completely as a passerby.
But not long after the princess left, a crossbow suddenly shot at her.
“Ah!”
The princess was standing at the front, and no one was protecting her. The crossbow shot directly through her shoulder, causing the princess to suffer misery. Give a shout.
Hearing this scream, Luodan seemed to react, pushed away everyone and rushed over.
"Princess, princess!"
The princess's body fell softly and she was caught by his quick eyes and hands.
"Princess, are you okay?"
While asking, he took out the wound medicine and applied it on her shoulder first.
But after a while, he found that the wound on his shoulder was black, and his eyes darkened.
"The arrows are poisonous."
Who is it? Such a cruel heart, this is killing the princess.
He could only feed all his elixirs to the princess to temporarily hang her life.
Subsequently, the secret guards beside the princess also rushed out and caught the murderer in time.
“Caught, the murderer is caught!”
Rodan put the princess on the ground and planned to go to the killer to find out.
But before I got closer, I heard someone exclaiming again.
“No, the killer is going to commit suicide!”
Although the secret guard quickly tried to stop him with his hands, the killer still bit the poison in his mouth and committed suicide in an instant. Leave no clues.
By the time Luodan arrived, the man had already died.
Seeing this situation, many people felt angry, especially the people who were with the princess before. They almost suffered a disaster.
"Who is it? We are a poetry club that has been carefully screened. How could an assassin appear and hurt the princess's body? If anything happens to the princess, all of us will not be able to bear it. Let’s go!”
“Yes, where did the killer come from? It’s too dangerous here. I want to go back. I don’t want to go back. Stay at the Poetry Club!”
“It’s really terrible. This matter must be reported to Dali Temple and investigated thoroughly. A killer actually committed the crime in broad daylight and targeted the princess. It’s really outrageous!”
These people are indeed angry. They were assassinated after participating in a perfectly normal poetry gathering.
Anyone who can come here is either rich or noble, and has a certain status.
They regard their own lives as more important than anyone else's, so they are naturally frightened and fearful of panic.
There was a commotion in the crowd. Rodan ignored them and observed carefully. The killer found out that there was no trace. In the end, he could only sigh and give up for the time being.
“Damn it, this killer did it very neatly and left no clues on his body.”
If the clues are cut off here, it means that we don’t know who did it.
After a while, the doctor came over and diagnosed the princess immediately.
But when he diagnosed the princess, her face turned pale.
“No, the arrow is poisonous. The princess has been poisoned, and the poison has penetrated into the bone marrow. However, this poison is so strong that I have never heard of it, and I don’t know how to detoxify the princess? "
When the old doctor said this, his forehead couldn't help but start to sweat.
Now he is treating a princess, a famous princess.
One of them is not good, but they have to sit together, but there is no other way. The old doctor can't think of any good solution for the time being, so he can only tell the truth.
As soon as the doctor's words came out, everyone's hearts sank.
Those who were timid even felt their legs weaken and collapsed on the ground.
"Why, how could this happen?"
"I was just attending a poetry meeting. How could I have encountered an assassin? I was so lucky that I just happened to stab the princess..."< br>
He could stab anyone, but why it was the princess, the most powerful person among them.
They could already predict the emperor's anger, who should be calmed, and who would be punished in the end. No one dared to think further.
Lodan had already reached the princess and stretched out his hand to feel her pulse.
Then his eyes darkened.
That’s not good.
The princess was already dying. It seemed that the poison was very ferocious and was destined to be fatal.
Although I am hanging myself with pills, I don’t know how long I can hang myself.
While he was thinking, people from the government came.
When they saw the people in the government, many of them looked scared and wanted to leave immediately, shirking the relationship and taking no responsibility at all.
As soon as the official came, they first asked where the assassin was?
Someone pointed to the body on the ground.
The officers and soldiers stepped forward to take a look, slapped them with their knives, and their expressions turned ugly.
"Everyone is dead, how should I communicate with my superiors?"
Other brothers also thought about this, and their expressions were so good that they couldn't see where they were.
“No matter what, you have to hand over a living person, what’s the use of a dead person.”
"What's more, it's a matter related to the princess. We must use this line to investigate. Once the assassin dies, the line will be interrupted."
The officers and soldiers discussed it, and their expressions became more and more unhappy. nice.
Since it’s hard to deal with dead people, let’s just choose a living person.
The officers and soldiers looked around, and many people avoided his gaze.
The officers and soldiers took a rough look and their expressions darkened.
This poetry meeting is very unusual. Only those who are rich or noble can participate. Everyone present has an identity and background. If someone is caught who shouldn't be caught, not only will the princess's matter not be solved, but they themselves will also be in trouble. A fishy smell all over.
Now, the officers and soldiers were in trouble, so they had to ask everyone as usual.
"When the princess was killed, did you notice anything was wrong? Are there any strange people or any strange movements today?"
Suddenly, someone had a flash of inspiration and thought of something. , report immediately.
"Yes, sir, there is a new face next to the princess today. The one squatting next to the princess. We have never seen him before. And it happened to be that the princess was killed today. This is too coincidental. Some.”
It makes sense for that person to say that. It's hard to offend anyone here. Naturally, there is only one Luo Dan left with unknown origins. Moreover, his report is well-founded. Luo Dan is indeed a little strange.
No one knows Luo Dan or where he comes from.
I followed the princess for no apparent reason, and was treated as a friend by the princess for no apparent reason.
Then on the first day of the poetry meeting today, the princess was unfortunately in danger.
No fool would believe it if I said there was no problem with him. (End of chapter)
