The Golden Hairpin

Now Wang Kui has pushed all the affairs away, staying simple and ignoring the disparity of the outside world, and the court is not knowing how to deal with this matter, and is still discussing. The situation is stalemate, and even the atmosphere of Chang'an is depressed. Everyone is discussing the matter.

Someone secretly said: "In my opinion, King Kui is really fascinated by ghosts and gods. Otherwise, how could King E fight to die and expose King Kui?"

Someone also said angrily: "Wang Kui must have been wronged! Over the years, when he moved to Xuzhou, Nanzhao, and Longyou, which time did he not fight for the world of Li Tang?"

Some people seem to have insider information: "There is another inside story about this matter, but I dare not say, not even the court. Do you know what is the most important point of this storm? Of course-King E jumped off the building and flew in mid-air. Disappeared!"

So around the mystery of King E’s disappearance, everyone started arguing again, whether it was the first emperor or the great ancestor who appeared, whether he was dissected or ascended, whether he was ranked in the immortal class or the flesh became a Buddha...

Seeing that a group of people were arguing so hard that they were already gearing up for a fight, Huang Zixian settled the bill and walked out of the tea shed.

The weather is cold, but there are many people doing New Year's goods, and the West Market is bustling and bustling. She stopped and walked, and when she passed the Yi's mounting shop, she looked inside and found that the old man whose painting was ruined by Zhou Ziqin was still dozing off, and she couldn't see anything unusual.

Huang Zixian expected that his painting might have been restored, but she stood at the door for a long time and wondered, what does it have to do with herself? That spell, the red circles that appeared and disappeared belonged to King Kui Li Shubai, and what did it have to do with her.

She thought, gently turning the red bean on her wrist, silently preparing to turn her head and leave.

Just as she was taking a step, someone jumped out and patted her on the shoulder: "Chonggu! I'm looking for you~"

The person who was so alive in the cold weather was naturally Zhou Ziqin.

Huang Zixia couldn't believe it anymore: "Zi Qin, why are you here?" Changan is so big, why did she meet him when she came out by herself.

Zhou Ziqin smiled triumphantly and said: "Of course I know everything! Hey, I went to the palace to look for you a few days ago, but when I heard that you left, I really didn't know where I was going to look for you. Thinking, you might come to see if that Zhan Ziqian painting can be repaired, so I just squatted here and waited for a few days. I'm bored to death, but it's grabbing you!"

Huang Zixia smiled bitterly: "That's a coincidence." In fact, she really just came here by accident.

Zhou Ziqin was still drunk in the narcissistic self-indulgence. Huang Zixia asked, "Is that painting ready?"

"Well, when people from Zhaowang's Mansion came to pick up the painting a few days ago, I saw it next to me. There is really no trace of it, as new!"

"How long did it take?"

"Three or four days...I saw Old Man Yi take it out in the afternoon of the fourth day."

"Oh..." She replied, turned and continued to walk forward.

Not far in front is Lu's Fragrant Candle Shop.

She raised her head and looked forward, and suddenly saw the familiar figure standing under the tree opposite Lu's candle shop.

Di Cui.

She was wearing a drapery, standing under a tree, peeking inside, then turned and pressed against the wall and walked slowly.

Huang Zixian suddenly remembered that she had seen Di Cui here last time. At that time, she thought she saw a similar girl in a blink of an eye and admitted the wrong person. But now, she recognized it for sure, even though she was wearing a veil to cover her face, but the figure was indeed Di Cui.

Zhou Ziqin's eyes widened, and quietly asked in her ear: "Do you think... does that girl's back look a bit like..."

Before he finished his words, Huang Zixia had already quickened his pace and followed.

Di Cui also knew that he should hide and hide, so he kept walking and only went to the alleys. When she came to an uninhabited alley, she was in the middle of the alley, and Huang Zixia was in the alley, and whispered to her: "Miss Lu."

She trembled, suddenly startled, and ran towards the front alley.

Huang Zixia hurried to chase after him and said: "Don't panic, I am... Yang Chonggu, the **** of Prince Kui's mansion, do you remember me?"

Zhou Ziqin also shouted: "Yes, I am Zhou Ziqin! Brother Zhang's good friend, don't be afraid!"

Di Cui obviously should have heard it, but he only paused at his feet and rushed forward desperately.

Huang Zixian recovered from his serious illness, and after a few steps, he was short of breath, and his chest was so painful that he could only help the wall to stop.

Zhou Ziqin was going to continue chasing forward, but when she saw her clutching her chest and panting, her face was pale and ugly, worried about her body, so she stopped quickly and waited by her side.

Di Cui, who had run to the end of the alley, slowed down when they saw them stop, and looked back. Seeing that they didn't chase anymore, Di Cui hesitated, then suddenly knelt down, picked up a branch on the ground, drew **** the wall a few times, then turned and ran.

Huang Zixia called "Miss Lu" in vain, but she never looked back.

Huang Zixian leaned against the stone wall, breathing for a while, and then moved forward step by step by supporting the wall.

Zhou Ziqin had already ran to the place where Di Cui had painted, studying the things on it. She walked slowly to the end of the alley and looked at the wall.

The yellow muddy wall is marked with a pale mark by the branches.

It is a word, north. And in the lower left corner of the north letter, there is a ∟ symbol, which encloses the left and the bottom of the north letter, exposing the upper and right sides.

"What does it mean to wrap up half of the north?" Zhou Ziqin asked, scratching his head.

Huang Zixian looked at it and picked up a branch to make it unrecognizable, almost scraping off a layer of yellow mud, and she could no longer see the original appearance.

Zhou Ziqin turned around and asked her, "Chonggu, do you know?"

She said lightly: "Do you remember? Di Cui was born in a small family, so I don't know how to read it."

Zhou Ziqin Mangran: "Don't you know? But... but didn't she just write the character'North'?"

Huang Zixia just walked forward, as if she hadn't heard her.

Zhou Ziqin was anxious, and rushed to grab her sleeve and said, "No matter what she means, in short, for such a big thing, we have to go and tell the second brother Zhang's house quickly! Let's go!"

Huang Zixia glanced at him and asked, "Need to say?"

"How can we not say! Second brother Zhang is going crazy looking for her. If we don't tell him, can we still be friends? No! Even if we are not friends, ordinary passers-by should tell him!"

Seeing that he was so anxious, Huang Zixia almost jumped up, so she could only say, "Okay, let's go."

Zhang Xingying was actually at home today.

When he opened the door and saw them, he was surprised and happy, and asked: "Miss Huang, why did you come to me? You... why didn't you go back to the palace?"

"Oh...something happened recently." She replied vaguely, "It's you, why are you not with the prince today?"

"The prince has been in the mansion recently. He has already ordered him to come down. There is nothing wrong with him. Those who are in the capital can go home and have a look at any time."

"Oh." Huang Zixian and Zhou Ziqin followed him into the courtyard, looking at the clean ground in the courtyard and the still clear ditch, they changed the subject: "Your house is still well taken care of."

Zhang Xingying said casually: "Yes, it's better to have a cleaner home."

Huang Zixia asked: "Your father is not in good health, and your elder sister-in-law is in the incense candle shop. Did you clean it?"

Zhang Xingying opened his mouth and said, "Yes, yeah..."

Huang Zixia looked inside the house and asked softly, "Is your father's health okay?"

"Fortunately, although it is impossible to heal, but after raising it for so long, it is time to get better." Zhang Xingying's face finally showed a cheerful expression.

"That's all right, the old man's body, you have to take care of it." Huang Zixia sat down at the bottom of the grape trellis in the yard, and the grape trellis with fallen leaves were left with only a few young vines entangled on the bamboo trellis.

Zhou Ziqin grabbed Zhang Xingying's hand and asked in a low voice, "Do you know? I just saw Adi in West Market."

Zhang Xingying was immediately stunned, and was there for a long time, before rushing to shut the door, stammered and asked: "Miss Huang and you...have you seen Adi with you?"

Zhou Ziqin nodded vigorously and said, "Maybe she was worried that we might reveal her whereabouts, so she ran away as soon as she saw me."

Zhang Xingying was dumbfounded, and it took a long time to sit down slowly, and asked in a low voice, "So you...you don't know where she is?"

"But she should be in Chang'an. I have seen her twice in Xishi." Huang Zixia said.

Zhang Xingying quickly said: "Then me, I'll go find it."

Zhou Ziqin said nervously: "But she is still the emperor to blame, you have to be careful. It is inconvenient for King Kui to protect you now."

Zhang Xingying's face was stiff, she could only nod her head again and again, and said: "I know, I'll go find her..."

From Zhang Xingying's house, Huang Zixian and Zhou Ziqin bid farewell at the intersection.

Zhou Ziqin asked hurriedly, "Where do you live now? If I want to find you, where should I go?"

Huang Zixia thought for a while, and finally could only say frankly: "I live in Yongchangfang, and Wang Yun is looking for a place to live for me."

"Wang Yun?" Zhou Ziqin blinked, and then he was relieved and said excitedly, "Look, I know that Wang Yun cannot divorce. After all, you are an unmarried couple after all."

Huang Zixian smiled bitterly, nodded indiscriminately, and said, "Come to me if you have anything to do. It's the Wang's house next to the fourth well in the shop."

After parting with Zhou Ziqin, she left for Yongchangfang alone. But when she reached the gate of Yongchangfang, after hesitating for a moment, she went around again and walked towards Daming Palace.

Wang Yun was at the gate of Daming Palace today. After a round, he was about to go back to the station, but saw Huang Zixian approaching.

He dismounted and walked towards her, smiling: "It seems that I am much better today. Is Changan fun? Remember to bring someone out next time."

"With you here, Chang'an will naturally be stable for a long time, do you still need to bring someone?" she said.

Seeing someone behind him poking his head, Wang Yun motioned her to go aside with herself, and asked, "What's the matter?"

She was a little surprised: "How do you know that I have something to look for you."

"If it's okay, why would you take the initiative to care about me." He said, with a faint flash in his eyes, but then he laughed again, "Come and talk about it."

In Huang Zixia's heart, there was a hint of guilt in Huang Zixia's heart because of his smile. But then she bit her lip and asked: "The emperor recently... do you have any instructions on the case of Princess Tongchang?"

Wang Yun thought: "Since the princess Tongchang was buried in the tomb, the palace has avoided talking about it in order to comfort the holy bosom. The holy master should cheer up."

"Um..." Huang Zixian thoughtfully asked again, "Then, did the saint mention the matter about the murderer's daughter?"

"That's not true. It's just that there is a will, Yuji should always be concerned about the pursuit."

Huang Zixian nodded silently, Wang Yun looked at her expression and asked in a low voice, "Did you see Lu Dicui?"

"I'm not sure yet. But if you are patrolling the street, can you help me keep an eye on it?"

"Okay." He only answered one word briefly, without questioning it.

Huang Zixia looked at him gratefully and said softly, "Thank you."

"Why do you think so?" He looked down at her with a smile in his eyes.

Huang Zi Xia only felt that her heart fluctuates sharply, so she could only lower her head, say goodbye to him, and quietly turned and left.

Sometimes things are so strange. Huang Zixian could see Di Cui twice in front of the Xiangzhu Shop, but Wang Yun, Zhang Xingying, and Zhou Ziqin could not find Di Cui in the capital.

"Then don't look for it. If you find it, it may not be a good thing, and it may cause trouble." Wang Yun came to her a few days later and said.
