Chapter 574: Mixed Incense
Long Si completely calmed down in a short period of time, and his eyes were full of doubts again as he looked at Tianxian.
"Nineteen-year-old Imperial Girl Lei Jie...... There are indeed similarities with me. ”
Thinking about it, Long Si's gaze became playful, "What are you doing to break into my bedroom to ask such an illusory thing?"
"I'm sorry, Your Highness, but I don't have anything to say about this. ”
"Is it the code of some kind of ancient god ruins?" Ryusi looked at Tian Xian's eyes, as if he wanted to judge something from Tian Xian's expression.
"I'm sorry, Your Highness, but I don't have anything to say about that. ”
"You are very close to the Shalit Empire, could it be that you are doing something for the Shalit Empire this time, is that friend of yours someone from the Shalit Empire?"
Helpless, this woman's eyes have begun to light up now, knowing that she is trying to decipher the metaphor of the message, her whole state has changed immediately.
Can't even power and talent change a woman's gossip heart? Although Long Si's gossip seems to be a bit powerful......
"Your Highness, I just want to hear your opinion now, and this matter should have some connection with you. ”
Long Si suddenly smiled.
Laughing Tianxian and Guli both have a feeling that something is wrong.
"It turned out that there was a request for me, so it would be good to say it earlier. Long Si shook his head helplessly, "It's really not worth making such a big fuss." ”
"That...... Your Highness, I mean......"
"I understand!" Ryusi interrupted, and the smile on his face became obvious.
It's a win's smile.
"I did think about something. Ryusi gently stroked his straight black hair, like a bookish woman, but the words he said were full of the sharpness of a sword, "But I want to hear now if the good things you have brought me are worth telling me." ”
"Of course. If you don't want to say it, that's fine, and I can just let you go. Long Si fanned the aroma of the incense burner on his face, looking comfortable and lazy, "I've been worrying a lot lately, and I should rest." ”
Tian Xian has a big headache.
It's obvious. Ryusi was unlike any woman she had dealt with before, this woman was shrewd enough to make people want to cry without tears, and she found the slightest opportunity to take advantage of it, and immediately regained the initiative in the conversation.
Long Si looked at Tian Xian and showed embarrassment, and couldn't help but smile secretly in his heart, thinking that either you give me benefits immediately, or you will go back without getting anything, but since you have taken such a big risk to break into the dormitory, the matter you asked must be very important. It is absolutely impossible to go home empty-handed.
Tian Xian is also very clear about these thoughts of Long Si, but the problem is clear, and now it is the actual situation that he has fallen into passivity.
Will the four girls be like this in the future? Looking at Long Si's smile, Tian Xian suddenly had such an idea.
"What, don't you want to say it?" Ryusi smiled, "Are you afraid that I, a weak woman, will deceive you? If the good thing you said before is really worth it, I will naturally tell you what I think." ”
Where do you look like a weak woman! Tian Xian immediately muttered in his heart......
After pondering for a while, Tian Xian casually copied the incense burner on the table. "Bang" slammed on the table on his side.
Long Si was sniffing the aroma, and the fierce incense burner was taken away and couldn't help but be stunned. Annoyed: "You...... What do you do?"
Tianxian knocked on the lid of the incense burner, "Don't you remember when I said that you can't sleep, and you will have a migraine......?" It's better not to smell it. ”
Long Si was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then suddenly understood something, and immediately covered his mouth and nose, with a look of disbelief in his eyes. "Is this incense?"
"It's okay!" Tian Xian snorted, "The incense is non-toxic, and you smoke it so much, it won't be in the way at all, but what's going on? I'm afraid it's hard for His Highness to understand what I don't say." ”
said. Tian Xian showed the same smile as Long Si just now, "If I guessed correctly, this incense must have been strictly inspected before it will be used by His Highness, and there is absolutely no problem in itself, even if I go to review it now, it is the same, I can't do it if I want to know what is being done with my hands, Your Highness, do you understand what I mean?"
Long Si's eyes widened slightly, and his face was full of shock. After a while, she slowly lowered the sleeve of her dress that covered her mouth and nose, and said in a deep voice, "How can you prove that there is something wrong with this incense?"
"Your Highness has only been in good spirits since this month, not only can't sleep, but also has a splitting headache. ”
Long Si was stunned.
"Yes...... But I've been using this fragrance for years! The ingredients have never changed!"
"Oh~~~" Tian Xian smiled, "Your Highness wants to know why it has only been sick in the last month?"
This smile made the two rows of little white fangs that Long Si hated gurgle.
"Okay, then let's have a fair exchange, you tell me my cause, and I'll tell you what I think. ”
"No, no, no!" Tian Xian shook his head, "Your Highness has misunderstood, the current situation is different from just now, if Your Highness doesn't plan to know what I'm going to say, you don't have to speak, we can also not know Your Highness's thoughts, because compared to ...... It seems that your situation is more urgent, Your Highness. ”
Long Si listened to Tian Xian's explicit words, and his angry eyebrows were raised, "No matter what, you are still a courtier of the Longyuan Empire, do you actually want to blackmail the princess of the empire?"
"Your Highness, you didn't say just now that this is a fair exchange, so it doesn't make a difference which side talks first, isn't it? If this is really a fair exchange, there's nothing wrong with you talking first. ”
Ryusi took a deep breath, "Sure enough, it's a difficult guy......"
"Thanks for the compliment. ”
Snorting, Long Si thought for a moment and said: "In Gustas, there is a legend that when the Gustas Empire has not yet appeared, there are constant wars, countless small forces are constantly fighting, people are displaced, men are dying on the battlefield, women and children are in the wilderness, just when that land is about to be completely reduced to hell, a person appeared. ”
"Her name is Lei Jie, and she is nineteen years old. ”
Tianxian and Gu Li were slightly stunned.
Ryusi continued: "She came as a hero, led some of her followers to fight in that land, subdued and destroyed all the forces, and unified that land. And to establish a state, called the Gustas Empire!"
"Legend has it that she descended in the moonlight of the Dragon Moon on the western mountains of Cambo, which means "son of the West" in the ancient gods. ”
Speaking of which. Ryusi stopped to observe Tian Xian's reaction, but there was only a calm on Tian Xian's face, and he couldn't see anything.
"Did you think of anything?"
Tian Xian Wenyan did not answer directly, but said, "Please go on, Your Highness." ”
"A nineteen-year-old girl named Lei Jie, an ordinary resident of the Longyuan Empire. Ryusi couldn't help but smile as he spoke, "If I guessed correctly, the meaning of this message is: Son of the Wild Dragon of the West." ”
"Son of the Dragons of the West!"
The corners of Tian Xian's eyes twitched, "Your Highness's guess...... Is there any basis for this?"
"Absolutely. If your message is a metaphor, it's probably the case, because the ancestor of Leijie, who founded the Gustas Empire, did have a younger brother. Unlike her older sister, her younger brother was an ordinary and ambitious man, and after the founding of her country, her younger brother eventually fornicated with foreign enemies to invade Gustas in an attempt to usurp the rebellion, and although the rebellion was eventually put down, Lei Jie was also stabbed to death by her brother in this rebellion. As a result, Gustas entered a state of seclusion and no longer had any contact with the outside world. This is the story of a hero who dies at the hands of a villain. ”
"And ...... This news does have something to do with me, because the Gustas Empire has almost no contact with the outside world, and ordinary people don't know the history of this country at all, and among the princes and princesses, maybe only I know a thing or two. ”
Ryusi looked at Tian Xian with a playful gaze, "Your friend asked you to take care of his sister as a younger brother before he died. This metaphor is very interesting in the history of the Gustas Empire......"
Tianxian's mind kept churning about Ryusi's explanation......
The message left by the starling naturally pointed to the person who controlled him, since this is a metaphor for the history of the Gustas Empire, then ...... He wanted to kill the man who was manipulating him. Avenge him!
Son of the Dragon!
In Tian Xian's mind, the originally vague thoughts began to become clear.
"That friend of yours is suggesting that you go to the West to find someone born from the Dragon Moon and kill him, that's all I'm guessing about. Long Si paused, "So...... What's your answer?"
Hearing this, Tian Xian got up and came to the table to formally bow to Long Si, "Thank you, Your Highness, for your advice, this great kindness, Tian Xian will definitely be rewarded in the future!"
Long Si was slightly stunned, he didn't expect Tianxian to suddenly make such a big gift to himself seriously.
"The news...... So important?"
"Very important! If it weren't for His Highness's reminder, I would have almost missed a big thing!"
Saying that, Tianxian hurriedly sat back, and said straightly: "Your Highness, on the way here, I saw that your bedroom was decorated with a lot of ghost-faced flowers, which were newly put on a month or so ago, right?"
Long Si was stunned again, "How do you know this?"
Tian Xian smiled slightly, "The first time when the ghost face flower bloomed was just a month ago, this is not difficult to guess, but I also know that Your Highness, this kind of flower has not been used in your bedroom before, and this is the first time you have used it, right?"
Long Si was surprised, "All the big and small matters in my dormitory are confidential, how do you know so clearly?"
"Hehe, because this ghost-faced flower is gorgeous and ostentatious, and Your Highness is elegant and refined, I guess Your Highness doesn't actually like this flower, but uses it for some reason. ”
Long Si couldn't help but feel a little more brilliant when he looked at Tian Xian's eyes, "Just make a guess based on these?"
Tianxian chuckled, "The more inconspicuous things are, the more they will not hide them, and the more they can often reveal the truth." ”
"You mean...... Is there a problem with this flower?"
"There is no problem with the ghost face flower itself, and because the flowers are gorgeous, the smell is strong, and it has the effect of refreshing the heart, I think your Highness has been very anxious about what to do during this time, so someone recommended this flower, and you seem to rely on this awakening incense very much, so at this time, there is not so much resistance to this ghost face flower. ”
Everything was said, and Long Si felt slightly uneasy, "If there is no problem with the flower, then what is the problem?"
Tian Xian patted the incense burner, "There is no problem with the flowers, and there is no problem with this incense, but it is difficult to say if it is mixed together...... Your Highness may not believe it, but now I will ask someone to bring a few ghost face flowers, and see me demonstrate them for Your Highness immediately. ”
Long Si immediately asked someone to bring a pot of ghost face flowers.
I picked a few petals. Pocketed a little pollen with the petals, and then threw it directly into the incense burner, and when the petals burned into ashes and covered the ashes, he pushed the incense burner in front of Long Si, "Your Highness smell it." ”
Long Si was about to smell it, and suddenly felt a fishy stench. An extremely strange smell emanated from the incense burner, and this smell rushed down his nostrils to his brain, which immediately made Long Si's chest feel stuffy for a while, and the feeling of nausea also surged in his stomach.
Shocked and retreated, Long Siyuan stared at the incense burner with his eyes open, "This...... What is this?"
"It's not a poison, but it makes people feel dizzy, chest tightness and nausea, and you will be restless if you stay in this breath for a long time. Can't sleep. ”
"For a long time, but others ......" Ryusi stopped in the middle of the conversation, her eyes widening.
"Just like His Highness thought, although everyone can smell the fragrance of flowers, this awakening incense is only used by His Highness alone with this small incense burner, and in the entire dormitory, only His Highness often smells these two aromas at the same time. ”
Staring at the incense burner, Long Si's face was full of disbelief, "What...... How so?"
"If the person who recommended this ghostface flower doesn't have a reasonable reason. Or if he is very proficient in spices, then His Highness should be careful...... You're in the dormitory. It's not peaceful. ”
Long Si's face was a little ugly, she was silent for a while, and suddenly shouted, "Someone!"
Tianxian and Guli were immediately stunned, and the door was immediately slammed open again, and Leni quickly rushed in with a large number of soldiers.
"Your Highness!" this time Leni learned to be obedient and did not do it immediately. Instead, he first asked for the meaning of Ryusi.
The dragon sank like water on all sides, and suddenly said softly and softly, "Leni, how long have you been with me?"
Leni was stunned for a moment, "Your Highness." You ......"
"Eleven years and nine months ......," Ryusi asked himself, "When I was eight years old, my father selected a palace attendant, and I chose you, because I think your eyes are particularly clean and pure...... It's been eleven years since that day!"
Leni was a little overwhelmed, "Your Highness, you...... Did you listen to what these two guys said, I ......"
Suddenly, she saw the ghost face flower that had picked a few petals and the incense burner next to it, and her complexion couldn't help but change greatly.
Long Si gritted his teeth slightly, "I remember clearly! You said that you are the best at mixing spices, and for the first eight years, you burned incense for me until I promoted you to be a general! and a month ago...... It was also you who made the palace change the ghost face flower!"
"I'm nineteen years old this year, and you've been with me for nearly twelve years......! but betrayed me!"
In an instant, a sword light and sword shadow flickered, and the guards reacted quickly, and they had already surrounded Leni at the moment when Long Si's words were spoken.
"Your Highness, Your Highness, I ...... I have been with you for twelve years! I have been with you for twelve years, starting with the humblest of maids! How could I...... Just because of these two people who don't know each other, a few words, are you ......?"
Long Si turned around angrily and shouted, "Then why did you change your face when you saw the ghost face flower?"
At this moment, Tian Xian thought that he saw a dragon in anger, and Long Si's thin body seemed to burst out with a murderous aura that could freeze through human bones.
Leni was completely stunned and speechless, "Temple...... Your Highness, I ......"
"Hold it down! I'm going to interrogate her myself!"
When the soldiers pressed down Leni and exited the room again, Long Si exhaled slightly, his face tired, "I really didn't expect ......"
"I'm really sorry, I didn't expect us to come this time and cause so much trouble to His Highness. ”
"No, I knew there was a traitor around me, so I had to be so vigilant, but I didn't expect it to be Lennie, ah...... Twelve years! In a few months she followed me for twelve years, and she was there for me when I began to think I had something to do for the Empire, and she turned against me at my critical moment......"
"Your Highness doesn't have to be too sad, now it's better to quickly withdraw those ghost-faced flowers and recuperate. ”
Long Si's eyes rolled and fell on Tian Xian's face, "How do you still know spices?"
"I don't know about spices, I just know about herbs, especially some poisons. ”
Hearing this, Long Si couldn't help but shake his head helplessly and laughed, "Okay, whatever, this time I owe you, if you hadn't suddenly broken in, I would never have doubted Leni's ......"
"How dare you make Her Royal Highness the princess owe, if Her Royal Highness absolutely wants to compensate me for something, then forget the news I said today, this is a private message, I don't want anyone to know. ”
"Absolutely. Long Si readily agreed.
"Anyway, I won't mention what His Highness said about Gustas today. Tianxian blinked slyly.
Long Si smiled, "This is just a private conversation, naturally it will not be believed by outsiders, I am the princess of the Longyuan Empire, and I no longer have any connection with the Gustas Empire, and I will not deliberately understand everything about this country, even if she is half of my mother country, understand?"
"Of course, Her Royal Highness didn't say anything about the country of Gustas today. ”
Long Si laughed out loud for the first time, "You are really an interesting person, the ninth brother and father are really not mistaken." ”
"Your Highness has praised it, if you can...... We'll quit first. ”
"Let's go!" Ryusi also seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, "I'm tired too......"
Tianxian got up, suddenly remembered something, and asked, "Your Highness, I still have a few words in private, I don't know whether to say it or not." ”
"Say it. ”
"I have a friend in the Gustas Empire, and we are in contact occasionally, Your Highness if there is any ......"
Long Si shook his head and interrupted Tian Xian's words.
"I've ...... There's no going back. ”
Tian Xian nodded, "It's me who said more." ”
"I didn't expect you to be so warm-hearted, if you can live well, let's have a drink next time we meet." ”
"Your Royal Highness Princess, are you asking me out?"
"Hahahaha......" Ryusi laughed out loud. (To be continued......)
