Chapter 87： Step trap

The banquet was about to begin, and the queen mother reluctantly let go of Yue Li's hand.

At this time, a woman hurried in from outside with a look of panic, "Mother, it's not good, Princess Jin... suddenly disappeared..."

This person led Yueli to Hu Zheng by the lake.

Princess Lan pulled her face down immediately when she saw her, and she reprimanded, "How decent is it to be so noisy in front of the emperor and the queen dowager? And Princess Jin is sitting next to Prince Jin, how can she disappear?"

Hu Zheng glanced at Xiao Mo's position, Jian Yueli was sitting there quietly.

She looked a little evasive, and lowered her head like a guilty conscience, "Princess Jin was watching the fish by the lake in Houyuan, and suddenly she disappeared. I thought...Princess Jin was lost in the palace."

"It may be that you haven't found Princess Jin, so you have to talk nonsense again, don't step back quickly!"

"Yes!" Hu Zheng retreated with a flustered expression. Although she didn't say anything clearly, everyone was a little confused about her inexplicable words.

Some people even began to wonder if Yueli suddenly disappeared while watching the fish by the lake, would she hide somewhere and did something she didn't want people to know?

As the party concerned, Yueli just sips tea quietly, treating others as invisible.

Princess Lan saw that Yue Li was so calm, she also began to have doubts in her heart.

"Mother and Queen, some shadow puppet artists came from the Imperial Palace a few days ago, so why not invite the mother to enjoy them."

The queen mother was also a little interested when she heard it, "Shadow play? The Ai family has never heard of it. Let's go and have a look."

The Queen Mother stood up, and the people present quickly got up, and walked outside.

Xiao Rui quietly blinked at her when she passed by Yue Li, and Yue Li quickly lowered her head. Fortunately, no one noticed the little movement between them.

In an empty courtyard of the Hou Mansion, there is a big house in the middle, which seems to be built for performing shadow puppets. There is a square shelf in the middle of the room, with a layer of white cloth on it, and neat seats on all sides.

According to the layout, male and female guests sit in different positions separately.

"This shadow play needs light, and the maids will cover all the windows." The room was dark, which is why the male and female guests were separated.

Xiao Rui yawned solemnly and patted her mouth, "Hurry up, it's so boring!"

"Yes!" Princess Lan bowed to Xiao Rui, a chill flashed in her eyes when she lowered her head.

The windows were blocked and the room was dimmed. The guests had been informed in advance, and they were not surprised or surprised.

The sound of gongs and drums sounded, a few small dots appeared on the white curtain, and then a few shaking figures appeared, and the performance was about to begin.

It is not uncommon for Yue Li to watch shadow puppets in the previous life. To her surprise, the images seen by people in the opposite direction across the screen are exactly the same.

I don’t know how the knowledge in the middle of the screen is performed. It’s not easy to be able to show the same images in four directions at the same time!

Everyone was in high spirits, only Yueli was a little upset by the drumbeat, ready to go out to breathe.

Yue Yan'er had been paying attention to Yue Li's movements and found that she had gone out, also in another direction.

Listening to the intensive gongs and drums in the room just now, Yueli only felt her chest tightness, and she felt suffocated, which was particularly uncomfortable.

I don't know if the poison in the body is starting to break out again.

Half of the dragon skeletal has been processed in the laboratory and can be taken in two days. The poison in the body is now like an untimely bomb, making her feel uneasy.

"Baby, I'm boring all by myself, why not spend some time with my master..."

A voice rang from behind, and Yue Li drew aside. The man behind him almost fell to the ground. He was a bloated and fat man like a nouveau riche.

The fat man turned to see Yue Li's face, and the body that was about to rush up again suddenly paused, suddenly feeling disgusted.

Even though the money is collected, such an ugly woman who is not sexually attractive is really too much to deal with!

Yueli flashed behind a pillar and took the miniature pistol out of the space, "It's not like a dead one, get out of here!"

If he dared to step forward, Yue Li would shoot without hesitation.

The fat man stopped and didn't move. He said because of Yue Li's appearance and the sharp murderous in her eyes was too scary.

"It's so ugly, there must be no man willing to touch you. Why not let you enjoy the joy of being a woman today..." After weighing it, the fat man gritted his teeth and started to move forward.

Yue Li squeezed the trigger with her finger and took another step forward, and she shot.

"Princess Jin, it turns out you are here!" A woman's figure suddenly rushed out, blocking the fat man behind.

Yue Li had some accidents, it was Hu Zheng who ran out to rescue her.

Glancing at the fat man, Hu Zheng stepped forward to support Yue Li.

When the fat man saw Hu Zheng appear, he knew that there was no show today, so he turned and left.

Yue Li felt that her body was getting weaker and weaker, her breathing was difficult, and she was as weak as she was drained of blood, so she could only let Hu Zheng support her to a room.

Yue Yan'er, who had been in the house for a long time, greeted him immediately, "Sister, what's wrong with you, are you uncomfortable?"

Hu Zheng's eyes dodge a little, throwing Yueli to Yue Yan'er and retreating, "I have to wait on my mother, so I will leave first."

Seeing Hu Zheng's strange behavior, Yue Li once again had an unknown premonition.
