Volume 6: Demons Rise from the East Sea Chapter 398: Diary of the Great Xuan Judge (Part 1)
Five months later.
Xuanmiao City, the old house of the Xu family.
The sun rises, and the sunlight shines through the tall windows onto Xu Zun's face.
Xu Zun hummed slightly and opened his sleepy eyes after a while.
When he woke up, he smelled alcohol and some powder in the air.
I wanted to get up, but I found a lush jade arm wrapped around my chest, and a woman on the bed was wrapping around me like an octopus.
oh……
Xu Zun lay down weakly and closed his eyes, wanting to take a nap.
After about half an incense stick of time, he felt extremely thirsty and had to open his eyes again. Then he carefully lifted up the jade arms and long legs that were wrapped around him.
The woman was disturbed and groaned softly, then turned her head and lay on the other side.
call……
Xu Zun breathed a sigh of relief, put on his shoes, and went to the desk to pour some water.
The weather has turned cooler, but the warm sunshine contains energy that makes him feel particularly comfortable.
After drinking the water, he took out an inconspicuous little notebook from a pile of books on the desk.
After opening it, he dipped the brush and began to write on it——
[October 5th, sunny.]
[The Eastern detective brought some good wine, and we drank till dawn. We had so much fun that we stayed overnight and played poker all night...]
After finishing writing, he couldn't help but look back at the enchanting beauty on the bed. Dongfang Yaorao was really enchanting.
It was just that I was in a trance for a moment, and I actually forgot whether this Eastern detective had a husband or not!
cough……
Xu Zun took another sip of water and said to himself, after five months of living a life of luxury, he was numb and didn't care anymore...
Seeing that the Eastern Detective was still sleeping soundly, Xu Zun flipped through the diary that he had written on a whim, turned to the first page, and savored it carefully.
【May 5th, cloudy.】
[On the first day of being dismissed from office, I have nothing to do, so I write a diary! There is no Dragon Boat Festival in this world, and the fifth day of May is a very peaceful day. ]
[I know that the reason why the guards did not leave me was probably arranged. Someone wanted to know all my movements.]
[So, even though I was dismissed from office, I must not leave the Holy City, nor can I be too active.]
[But...if you think about it carefully, even though the guards are not my people, as long as I am fine, then it's all good for you, me and everyone else.]
[In fact, staying at home honestly is not a bad thing. I almost forgot about the ten concubines I brought back from the East China Sea, and the dozen boxes of gold, silver and jewelry Kong Zhen gave me, but I didn't hand them in...]
[Hehe... For some reason, a wicked smile appeared at the corner of my mouth...]
[May 6th, light rain.]
[It's raining, so I'll just have some free time. I'll call my new concubines and have a wedding! 】
[The one from Nanyang has the best figure, the one from Donghai is the most open-minded, the one with blond hair is really white, oh... yes, they are of European race...]
[Hey? Why does this person look so familiar? I lifted the veil and saw that it was Ani...]
[May 7th, I can’t remember the weather.]
[Take a day off. I was hit so hard yesterday that I can’t quite recover. I suddenly remembered an old song from my past life: I was hit in the waist by youth…]
[May 8th, sunny.]
[Finally someone came to visit me, Chen Taiji and Dongfang Yaorao. Those who can come to visit me at this time must be true love, oh no, they are all true brothers! ]
【Chen Taiji comforted me with a few words and showed me his analysis results, each of which was positive.】
[Dongfang Yaorao brought me news that the twenty-two first-rate warriors from Ancient Wind Island have officially joined the Divine Detective Division and have met with Yue Jinglei.]
[Those people regarded Yue Jinglei as their idol, and they all felt it was a supreme honor to be able to fight alongside Yue Jinglei.]
[I felt relieved after hearing this news. No one knows, they are my life-saving capital...]
[Friends came over and there was good wine and a night banquet. I felt that Dongfang Yaorao looked at me in a strange way, which reminded me of Li Ronger back then...]
[On the ninth day of the fifth month, it rained heavily.]
[Two funerals. One was a state funeral. The royal family held a grand funeral for the prince, and the entire city wore mourning clothes for him.]
[The other funeral was a private funeral, that of the iron-blooded guard Dai Long. Dai Long and I were very close friends, so I had to leave the Xu Mansion to attend and provide compensation.]
[I have to say, among the eight guards, my favorite is this hard-working guy. It's a pity that he can't accompany me anymore...]
[On the tenth day of the fifth month, great things will happen one after another. ]
[The first one was a report in the early morning that Li Chang, the Minister of the Honglu Temple, was arrested and directly imprisoned in the Tianlao Prison of the Internal Guard for secret interrogation.]
[Li Chang is a direct descendant of the Crown Prince and a member of the Xuanmen rebel party, so he naturally cannot escape this disaster.]
[The second thing is that the Queen Mother's imperial decree suddenly came today. I thought it was directed at me! But the eunuch in charge of ceremonies actually asked Ku Niang to receive the decree.]
[What's even more incredible is that Ku Niang was actually conferred a title by the Queen Mother! In addition to being promoted three levels and continuing to serve as the General of the Qilin Guard, she was also conferred the title of Viscount Zhenwu! ]
[It's really... I never expected that everyone was implicated in the East China Sea incident, but Ku Niang was the only one whose status rose instead of falling. ]
[What does this mean? Does the Queen Mother simply admire Ku Niang's martial arts ability? Does she want to stabilize this future top ten masters of Daxuan, or even the best in the world? ]
[Also, does this mean that my judgment on the iron coffin case is correct? Conferring a title on Ku Niang is to give an explanation to the Xiazhou Ruan family, and is it for Ruan Changkong to see? ]
[If that's the case, it means that the Queen Mother had already made a deal with the Ruan family of Xiazhou, and knew the origins of Ku Niang, so the Iron Coffin Case was simply a big trap set by the Queen Mother for all parties...]
[The third thing surprised me even more. The Crown Princess Tian Jing, who had recovered from her injuries, suddenly came to visit me. She wanted to thank me for saving her life, and she also brought me a booklet, saying it was a gift for me.]
【Fortunately, I was alert enough to take the booklet but did not open it.】
[Because I can see from the Crown Princess's eyes that the things recorded in this booklet must be the secret information about the civil and military officials that she once told me.]
[Just kidding, this thing is naturally a good thing in normal times, but it is undoubtedly a time bomb now. How could I possibly want it? ]
[After I politely declined, the Crown Princess was not surprised. She said a few words of comfort to me and said that if I needed her in the future, she would definitely help me with all her strength.]
[I didn't realize it at first, and it wasn't until the Crown Princess left that I realized what was going on.]
[Oh my goodness, today is the Crown Prince's state funeral! Shouldn't the Crown Princess preside over the funeral? How...how could this happen? She didn't even wear mourning clothes, could it be...could it be that she has already separated from the Crown Prince? ]
[Also, looking at her entourage, they all look like palace guards. It seems that my previous judgment was not wrong. The Crown Princess is also the Queen Mother's person.]
[My goodness, life is full of traps! If I had agreed to her deal and really let her fake her death and escape, wouldn't I have fallen into the trap? ]
[At night, I was planning to get drunk, but then I changed my mind and decided to accompany the newly-conferred Viscount Zhenwu, Lady Ku Niang! ]
[Viscount Zhenwu, even the title is so domineering, it fits Ku Niang's temperament very well! ]
[But then again, I’m used to calling her Ku Niang. She does have a name after all…]
[… Accompanying my mother was fruitless. My mother’s injuries have not healed yet and she still needs to rest. Forget it, let’s just go for the wedding…]
