Metaphysics, from getting started to giving up

Chapter 57

After drinking for three rounds, food, wine, and beauties made all the civil servants and generals in the hall drunk. Even the old emperor sitting in the upper seat was a little groggy, and everything in front of him became unclear. .

Because of Zhou Yi's status, no one dared to put wine in front of him, so he just looked at the half-drinked tea blankly.

On the contrary, it was Xie Qianchou, who saw Zhou Yi serving wine when others watched the dancer, and from time to time there was a very subtle and bewildered smile on his face, which made Zhou Yi think that this guy had pretended to be a prince for a few days, and he thought He is really a domineering president.

After the dancer who was thrown out by him before was quickly carried off, there was a showgirl from the Central Plains on the stage.Compared with the enthusiastic and unrestrained Western dancers, they are restrained and gentle, and their dancing postures are as picturesque as mountains and rivers.

Zhou Yi took another sip of tea.

The musician is coming.

Suddenly, just as the singers were dancing to their heart's content, a sound of music pierced through the air and pierced into the arena, like a silver bottle suddenly breaking.

The civil servants and generals who were slightly drunk immediately came back to their senses. They looked around for a while, and then outside the main hall, a luthier in white with a Guqin in his arms walked in.

He was wearing a bamboo hat, followed by a pleasing young man with low brows, looking cold and out of the world.

Zhou Yi: "..." Wearing this hat, he must not be able to see the way. This unlucky boy is probably a human-shaped guide stick.

Under the leadership of the servant, the qin master sat in front of a table with sleeves flicked, and put the qin on it.

With his slender fingertips, he lightly grasped the strings.

Zheng——

Everyone present showed grimaces.

The servant hurried to the luthier's ear and whispered: "Wrong, wrong, playing wrong! It didn't start with the string."

The luthier quickly touched the two guqins, and after confirming the position of the strings, he started playing again.

Just as the boy breathed a sigh of relief, he realized that he had been pushed by someone. He turned his head impatiently, only to find that the person who patted him was actually a general of the highest rank and the third roughest.

"You slave, your master is sitting in the seat of your grandfather!"

The servant hurriedly pulled up the luthier who was playing mesmerizingly, and pushed him to an empty table next to the royal family, and then let the luthier continue playing.

Zhou Yi narrowed his eyes slightly.

That general over there...

The skill of the luthier is very good. A piece of pipa music is played like a ring, which is so sad for a long time.That is, it doesn't match the soft and swaying dancing postures of those singers, and it looks a bit funny.When the performance reached its climax, the eyes of the young luthier wearing a bamboo hat shone brightly!

Zheng!

This sudden sound was more piercing than the one he played wrongly before, and everyone present gasped in shock.After recovering from the explosion of the piano sound, a general suddenly found that his body could not move!

Zhou Yi's heart was awe-inspiring, and he started.

The luthier continued to play, but the music that followed was no longer as sad and melodious as before, but full of hostility.

This musical score is a treasured mystical technique in Jinshanmen, which can use the sound of music as a medium to activate Taoism.At this time, the exciting music played by the luthier has completely controlled the situation on the scene!

Zhou Yi had pre-attached a talisman that could neutralize the paralyzing mystic arts on his body in the Star Watching Pavilion before, but now, he can move freely.

But thinking of the hexagram before, he stabilized himself for the time being, and prepared to wait and see what happened.

This luthier is from Xie Qianchou's side.

The old emperor sitting in the upper seat opened his eyes wide, staring at the luthier who was stroking the guqin.

"Yes, there are assassins..." A palace maid yelled in panic, but she was so stiff that she couldn't move, only her mouth could be opened, which looked a little funny.

Prince Chenghui was very calm: "Who are you?"

"Me? Huh, the person who came to kill you!"

"Secretly, hiding your head and showing your tail, what kind of man are you?" The prince sneered.

The fan of the luthier was furious: "I'm not married yet!"

Prince: "..."

Zhou Yi frowned, feeling that the luthier's voice was somewhat familiar.But the other party refused to take off the bamboo hat for a long time, so that he could not know the other party's true face.He looked at Xie Qianchou, but found that there was a little sweat on the man's forehead.

Oops.

He saw Xie Qianchou mouthing him.

In order to prevent others from discovering the conversation between them, Xie Qianchou even switched the language to English for encryption.

Fortunately, Zhou Yi also learned some basic grammar in order to study C++ and Java`va hard before. It took him a long time to distinguish and understand Xie Qianchou's meaning.

but……

He'snotmyemployee. Xie Qianchou crazily mouthed him.

Zhou Yi was at a loss, he only learned basic grammar.

What is Yingproyi?

Just when Zhou Yi and Xie Qianchou were talking differently, something happened on the field.

The luthier thought he had controlled the audience, and he relaxed a little, but unexpectedly found that the stiff prince sneered.He was puzzled in his heart, wondering why Prince Chenghui could laugh in such a situation.

The next moment, he instantly understood.

Numerous guards dressed in black rushed into the main hall from outside the main hall holding steel knives!The leader was wearing a light blue robe, with a Taoist scarf on his head, and he was dressed like a Taoist alchemist.

He swaggered into the main hall, walked to the side of the prince, held a talisman, and simply and neatly released the shackles of the paralyzing music for the prince.

The guards moved quickly and surrounded the luthier and his servants.

The luthier turned pale with fright, quickly lifted the bamboo hat, and played the guqin quickly, without caring about his pretentiousness.

...Under the bamboo hat, this person actually wore a black mask.

But the music that could have paralyzed people's bodily perception has completely lost its effectiveness at this moment.The luthier looked at the guards who were not affected in the slightest with astonishment, and couldn't react for a while.After the servant beside him hurriedly pounced on his waist and led him to avoid a steel knife falling from the sky, he suddenly shivered.

How did it fail? !

The scarf alchemist smiled deeply: "I don't know what kind of friend this fellow Taoist is? He is so bold that he wants to assassinate the emperor at night!"

"Bah!" The luthier hurriedly cleared himself up, "I'm not, I don't! Don't spit blood!"

"Then why do you play music to paralyze everyone present?" The alchemist looked at him coldly.

The luthier said reservedly: "I am giving everyone a surprise!"

Alchemist: "..."

Ignoring the controlled luthier, the alchemist turned to look at Zhou Yi.

Seeing that Zhou Yi was still pretending to be paralyzed, he couldn't help but sneered: "Master Guo Shi still pretends? I don't believe it, just such a low-level method can fool you, Master Guo Shi." .”

Seeing that he had been exposed, Zhou Yi simply stopped pretending and relaxed openly: "Where did this fellow Taoist learn from? He is young, but he has superb skills."

"My lord is too famous," the alchemist cupped his hands, "I'm just a nobody, and I'm just submitting to the crown prince for the time being."

Prince Chenghui smiled and said nothing.

The old emperor who was still stiff said quickly: "My son! Let that alchemist relieve me of the restriction!" He was also in a hurry, and now he didn't care about his status and called him Emperor Chenghui, but directly called him my son .

Prince Chenghui chuckled instead: "Father, why don't you just let it be like this, you are not young anymore, just take a rest."

The old emperor was furious: "What do you mean?"

"What do you mean? It doesn't mean anything," Prince Chenghui curled his lips, "I just feel that I have been doing the work of supervising the country for too long. In the future, there will be more palace people accompanying me in the cold palace, and my father will not Feeling bored."

Zhou Yi's heart was awe-inspiring.

He and Xie Qianchou planned to kill the crown prince Chenghui at the celebration banquet, but they didn't expect that the crown prince actually had a plan in advance. He planned to start the banquet early in the morning to force the emperor to abdicate and hand over the throne to him.

I don't know where this unfortunate luthier came from, and what kind of purpose he has.

But now, he acted as a dead ghost on behalf of Zhou Yi and Xie Qianchou's genuine luthier.

Xie Qianchou's garrison was still ambushing outside the main hall, presumably they hadn't been wiped out by the emperor yet.

He had to find a way to contact the outside team. When the crown prince and the old emperor had a life-and-death fight, when the fish died and the net was broken, let the mantis catch the cicada, and the oriole was behind!

But now, how do I contact the outside world?

Zhou Yi thought to himself.

He thought about it, but he didn't realize that Prince Cheng Hui walked to his side step by step.

After a hand roughly raised his jaw, forcing Zhou Yi to look up, he saw the prince looking at him with a half-smile.

"Doesn't the national teacher want to say something? Now, what you see is a massacre of siblings." Cheng Hui said.

Zhou Yi raised his eyelids: "What does the prince want to do? For a ruler, bloodthirsty is a serious crime."

Prince Chenghui's eyes were full, and Zhou Yi always maintained such a superior and indifferent attitude in front of him, so he couldn't help but feel an urge to knock him off the clouds.With a sneer, Crown Prince Chenghui raised his sleeves with a flick of his hand, and ordered: "Yuwei listen to the order!"

The well-ordered guards in black immediately responded neatly: "Yes!"

"Jianyuan, Gu likes your cold and indifferent appearance the most, but Gu hates your cold appearance that has nothing to do with you," he turned his head and looked at the still pretending that he couldn't move, but Xie Qianchou looked at this side with fiery eyes, "You're a smart person, just thinking, you should know what's going on in this place, right?"

"Sorry, I don't know." Zhou Yi didn't give him any face.

"It's okay, you will understand later," the prince said coldly, "Thousands of years have passed, and the dynasty has fallen, but Gu has won the world, but he has never had you. Gu originally thought that the trash of the third emperor brother could replace Gu again." Driven once, I found you for Gu, who knew that this bastard was so bold, and even tried to meddle in Gu's things!"

Zhou Yi looked at him expressionlessly, but began to grope secretly with his hands tucked into his sleeves.

In the lining of his sleeves, there is a dark bag containing talismans.

"Gu is here, completely shattering his soul, and he will never be reincarnated, teach him a lesson!" The expression on Prince Chenghui's face was a little distorted, and his possessive desire for Zhou Yi had completely become his obsession, supporting him. This strand of resentful soul drifts, "And you, just wander around the world with Gu! Even if you hate Gu, so what, you will always be Gu's thing, hahahahaha!"

There was a trace of coldness in Xie Qianchou's eyes.

Regardless of putting on a show, he bent his elbow and hit the waist and abdomen of a black-clothed guard guarding the princes. Taking advantage of his unpreparedness, he quickly stunned him and then snatched the steel knife from the guard's hand.Under the astonished eyes of all the princes, Xie Qianchou rushed towards Zhou Yi and Prince Chenghui!

But the scarf alchemist leisurely picked up a talisman, ready to stop Xie Qianchou.

No one noticed that the luthier, surrounded by several black-clothed guards, and his servant looked at each other.

Do you want to move your hands?

The boy gestured to the luthier with his eyes.

The luthier glanced at him wonderingly: "Are your eyes cramped?"

Servant: "..."

This dog thief!
