The wonderful life of modern women in ancient times

Chapter 535 Wang Siruo Enters Jingbei Marquis Mansion

"Wang Siruo, in case the flood washes away the Dragon King Temple, and the family members don't recognize each other, I have sent someone to inform you not long ago that Jingbei Hou is the master's man. Why did you come to Jingbei Hou's mansion to harm your own people? In addition, I have also asked someone to remind you to keep a low profile before the fifth day of the New Year and not to use anyone to practice!"

The evil cultivator slowly walked in front of Wang Siruo. His cloak was too big, so Wang Siruo couldn’t see the expression on his face, but she could feel his voice was icy and chilling.

Wang Siruo had a hunch that this person was different from the group of people who had just come to find him, and that their cultivation was much higher. Although her temper was getting worse and worse, she was not stupid. She showed this person an apologetic expression and said, "I know that Jingbei Hou is one of us, and I came to him today to discuss important matters. Who would have thought that this woman would not only not let me in, but also throw my token on the ground! I couldn't control my temper for a moment, and I attacked her. I don't know what happened. Since I started practicing, my temper has become more and more impatient!"

As he spoke, Wang Siruo took out the bronze medal and started playing with it in his hand.

After seeing the sign, the coldness emanating from the evil cultivator faded a lot. He remembered that his master had given an order that if they met anyone holding this sign and asked them for help, it was up to them to decide whether to help or not, but they must not put the person's life in danger.

"Pick up the bones and reassign people to guard the back door. I will personally explain to the Marquis what happened today. Don't make this matter public!"

After a moment of silence, the evil cultivator ordered the guards to collect Mama Liu's bones, and then said to Wang Siruo, "Miss Wang, the Marquis has entered the palace for a banquet and is not in the mansion at the moment. Please follow me to the front and wait."

Seeing this, Wang Siruo curled the corners of his lips, thanked him, and followed the evil cultivator.

It was already 3 p.m. when Marquis Jingbei returned home. He was changing clothes in his room when he heard the housekeeper's low voice outside the door: "My Lord, the Immortal Master wants to see you!"

Upon hearing this, Marquis Jingbei strode out of the room and came to his study.

"Butler, you stay outside and no one is allowed to come in without my order!"

Marquis Jingbei gave an order to the butler, closed the door of the study, walked to the painting on the wall, stood in front of it, reached out and touched the eyes of the tiger in the painting. The painting suddenly split into two and moved to both sides. An entrance to an underground palace appeared. Marquis Jingbei went down the steps, and after his back disappeared, the painting automatically merged together.

"Master, what do you want from me?"

The underground palace is very large. Marquis Jingbei passed through a study, a hall, and then came to the stone chamber where the evil cultivator was. This stone chamber was divided into three rooms. The evil cultivator usually stayed here to practice. Their practice method was different from Wang Siruo's. They did not use living things, but used ghosts to practice like the National Master of Jin State. In recent years, the ghosts of people who died in the capital have been captured by them for practice.

"My Lord, this girl wants to talk to you about something important!"

The evil cultivator pointed to a room and spoke politely to Jingbei Hou.

Hearing the evil cultivator's words, Marquis Jingbei looked in the direction he pointed and saw a woman with a sallow complexion walking out of the house next door.

"you are?"

Wang Siruo's hair on both sides had been tied up at this time. Marquis Jingbei frowned and looked at her for a while. He felt as if he had seen her somewhere before, but he could not remember where.

"Greetings, Marquis Jingbei. I am Wang Siruo! I came here today to tell the Marquis a piece of news I know!"

Wang Siruo walked up to Marquis Jingbei, smiled, looked at him and said.

"It's Miss Wang. I was wondering if your face looked familiar to me. What do you want to tell me?"

When Wang Siruo announced her name, Jingbei Hou suddenly realized that he had seen her portrait on the wanted poster, and he said that she looked familiar! If it were in the past, he would definitely ignore Wang Siruo, but now he knows that Wang Siruo is an evil cultivator, so he is very interested in the news she brought, and pretends to listen attentively.

"I know that your daughter is in love with the Regent, and she was punished by the Regent for having an argument with Lin Xi and his group on the street some time ago."

Wang Siruo looked at Jingbei Hou and said slowly.

"What does this have to do with what Miss Wang wants to say?"

Marquis Jingbei put his hands behind his back and frowned slightly.

"The news I brought today is about Lin Xi. She is from Linshan County, Guandong Prefecture. Before she came to the capital, I had never seen anyone in the capital who could cultivate immortality. After she frequently went to the palace, many of the guards who came out of the palace and patrolled the streets were actually cultivators! Don't you think it's too much of a coincidence, Lord?"

Seeing that Jingbei Marquis narrowed his eyes in deep thought, Wang Siruo continued, "Everyone knows that our regent is not a womanizer. He doesn't even have a concubine. How could he suddenly be fascinated by a girl from the county town? If he wants to win over court officials, there are many other important officials who have marriageable girls in their families. Why doesn't he even look at them, such as your family's legitimate daughter? Therefore, Lin Xi must have a secret. She must be of great use to the regent!"

Wang Siruo knew that the eldest daughter of Marquis Jingbei had a grudge against Lin Xi, and wanted to tell Marquis Jingbei everything she knew about Lin Xi, to do him a favor so that he would agree to let her stay in Marquis Jingbei's mansion to practice. She hated Lin Xi so much that she wanted to blame Lin Xi for everything. She was just talking nonsense at first, but as she spoke, she felt that her analysis was very reasonable.

"Also, the children around Lin Xi all seem to be quite skilled. Doesn't your Majesty find it strange?"

When Jingbei Hou heard the word "Linshan County", his pupils suddenly shrank. He pricked up his ears and listened to Wang Siruo's words, not wanting to miss a single word.

Could it be that the disruption of his arrangements in Linshan County was related to Lin Xi, and could it be that the things he hid in the cave that disappeared also have something to do with that girl?

If what Wang Siruo said was true, he would have to send someone to investigate Lin Xi's background. He was originally very confident about this uprising, but after listening to Wang Siruo's words, he had a bad feeling that Lin Xi would be a variable.

After getting rid of Wang Siruo, he had to order his spies to find out how many people in the palace were able to practice cultivation, what their cultivation was like, and whether they could compete with the evil cultivators under his command!

After thinking about it, Jingbei Hou looked at Wang Siruo politely and said with a smile: "Thank you Miss Wang for telling me these things. I wonder if I can do anything for you, Miss Wang?"

He believed that Wang Siruo must have some ulterior motive for this trip!

Sure enough, Wang Siruo smiled after hearing his words and said, "I really have something that I need the help of Marquis Jingbei. My Lord, you know that there are people everywhere out there who want to arrest me. I want to hide in this stone room in your mansion. My Lord, don't worry, I won't touch anyone in your mansion. My Lord, just have someone prepare ten live chickens for me every day!"

After hearing what Wang Siruo said, Marquis Jingbei looked at the evil cultivator standing next to him. When he saw him nod, he smiled and said, "These are all trivial matters. Miss Wang, just stay in the Marquis' Mansion with peace of mind!"
