Since the beginning of autumn, the weather in Zhou Kingdom is still warm.
When the weather was fine, Su Su groped for activities in the cold palace. There was nothing in the cold palace, and there was less and less divine power in her blood.
Gouyu became her eyes, guiding her and preventing her from stumbling and falling.
Qing Shihua devastated her body, making her thinner and thinner.
Now the pink White House looks a bit empty on her body, and her waist is extremely slender.
There are many willow trees in the palace. In her spare time, when Susu walks out of the courtyard of the cold palace, she will break a few branches.
To create the real essence, she has to inject Yin Qi into the flowers of the world.
I don't know if it's a coincidence or not. Whenever she goes to break willow trees at dusk, she always encounters broken-mouthed palace servants talking about the recently favored Mrs. Zhaohua.
"Your Majesty is also very kind to Madam Zhaohua. I heard that in the past few days, there has been a steady stream of rewards sent to Madam's Palace."
"Haven't you heard that Mrs. Zhaohua was sick, and His Majesty took care of her personally."
"Xiao Shunzi made a mistake a few days ago, and His Majesty was furious. Madam begged for mercy, and His Majesty immediately stopped being angry."
"Even the treasures sent by Shi Hao are used by His Majesty to please Mrs. Zhaohua!"
Their laughter penetrated the cold palace separated by a wall and penetrated into the dark world of Susu.
Susu heard them mentioning herself too—
"Then you say, what does Your Majesty mean to Leng Gong?"
"She, I heard that in the Xia Kingdom, His Majesty hated her deeply. Now he keeps her to torture her."
"But she almost became a queen before."
Someone sneered and said, "She's blind now. If Your Majesty really likes her, why didn't you give her a treasure. If I tell you, it's too late for His Majesty to hate her."
Susu held the willow branch, not knowing what she was thinking.
The autumn wind blew her plain dress, she supported the palace wall and walked back slowly. Willow branches can attract yin qi, she crossed her legs, and led the yin qi of Leng Gong into the flower of the world in her left eye.
Yin qi entered her body, making her shiver with cold, and her skin was pale.
Day after day, Su Su gradually got used to it. Yin Qi entered Qingshihua, and her eyes no longer bleed frequently.
She knew that she was about to be relieved.
One night, she was sitting by the well washing her dress.
Gouyu suddenly said, "He's here."
Susu paused and continued to wash. Tantai Jin came quietly, he didn't let anyone follow him, and he didn't carry the glazed lantern, he just looked at her from a distance.
Emperor Xuanyi watched coldly as the thin girl finished washing her clothes and walked past him with a wooden basin in her arms.
It was quiet and dark in the cold palace. She seemed to be used to it. She walked past the well without asking for help.
She looked quiet, and her black and white eyes didn't seem to be invisible at all.
The girl didn't seem to notice herself, and seeing that she was about to enter the house, Tantai Jin subconsciously followed a few steps.
Realizing what he was doing, he stopped, turned and walked away.
Gouyu said, "He left."
If it wasn't for Gouyu, Susu would never have known that he had been here.
Six annihilation nails were stuck in his heart, completely turning him into a cold and biting person. If there is still a time when the control is slightly out of control, it is probably the outbreak of Susu knot spring silkworm every two months.
He always sneered and forced her to beg her.
When they were skin-to-skin, he occasionally lost control and couldn't help looking at her absentmindedly. However, in just a short moment, Tantai Jhin would return to his viciousness.
When he came, Susu thought he didn't know what to do.
If it was said that before the immortal flower, she still had expectations for him, but now her heart is barren and no grass grows.
She counted the days and waited for the cloudy days.

In November, there will be a palace banquet soon in the palace, and Ye Bingshang's body has almost recovered.
Immortal flowers are in the body, and her wounds are flawless.
Xiaohui helped her dress up, looking at the beautiful woman in the mirror, she couldn't help but admire: "The madam is getting more and more beautiful, who would have thought that the eternal flower even cured the madam's chronic disease."
The current Ye Bingshang looked red with white teeth, she stroked her face and showed a gentle smile.
Xiaohui said happily: "Recently, His Majesty has been busy clearing up the rest of the Eighth Prince and the rest, and soon the Zhou Kingdom will be completely at peace. Madam, do you know that there will be a banquet in the palace in a few days, and that day will actually be a special day."
"What special day?"
Xiaohui approached Ye Bingshang's ear and whispered a few words, Ye Bingshang's face instantly turned reddish, and she gave Xiaohui a strange look.
Xiaohui said: "The slaves are right. Everyone says that this day is the best time to ask for a child. Everyone in Zhou believes this. Madam is in good shape now. ."
Ye Bingshang said: "It's just that you have a broken mouth, and I didn't think about it carefully. I should have married you away!"
Before the palace banquet started, Xiaohui dressed Ye Bingshang, and Ye Bingshang went to look for Tantai Jin.
It was a coincidence that they went, Tantai Jin had not gone to the banquet, but was talking to a person under the plum tree.
Ye Bingshang looked at it, and it seemed that he was the one who was in charge of hunting down one of the Eighth Princes. Tantai Jin has always used capable ministers a lot, this lord was promoted very quickly, and Tantai Jin had the intention of cultivating confidants.
He has a very young and handsome face. About half a month ago, Ye Bingshang had seen this adult, who seemed to be surnamed Qi.
At that time, Master Qi was in high spirits, but now the man in official uniform has a dead look in his eyes.
Tantai Jin looked at Qi Mo coldly: "Have you thought about it? Do you really want to resign?"
Qi Mo kowtowed: "This minister ignores His Majesty's love."
He took off his hat, and his lips were bloodless.
Seeing that he couldn't keep anyone, Tantai Jhin said lightly, "Go away."
Qi Mo got up and left, and when he passed Ye Bingshang, he didn't respond, like a walking corpse.
Tantai Jin got up but the palace banquet, Ye Bingshang saw that he didn't speak, so he had to silently follow behind him.
In the sound of the silk bamboo orchestra, the young man in Xuanyi, Zhi Yi, looked at the singing and dancing on the field with indifferent eyes.
Ye Bingshang called him twice, but Tantai Jin did not respond.
She knew that Tantai Jin's mind was not here. Is that Mr. Qi? She thought to herself, what did Qi Mo say
She had a bad feeling in her heart. Today, she dressed up carefully. When she went out, Xiaohui said that she was more beautiful than Hua Jiao, and she had carefully selected the fragrance on her clothes.
Ye Bingshang came to Zhou Kingdom for half a year. Although everyone in the palace said she was favored, she knew the truth better than anyone. She was afraid that she would still be unable to keep Tantai Jhin tonight, and the little tyrant had a keen and ruthless mind. When she was not sure, she would not dare to play tricks on him.
Tantai Jhin didn't know what Ye Bingshang, who was sitting in the lower seat, was thinking.
Qi Mo's resignation made him frown.
He has his own rules. Qi Mo has participated in too many of his plans. Now that he wants to retreat, he has to save half his life if he doesn't die.
However, Qi Mo didn't want the chance to step up and down, and resigned resolutely.
No, it should be said that he has resigned from office.
Tantai Jin knew very well about Qi Mo. After all, he had to know the bottom line before he dared to trust him.
A year ago, when the two countries were at war, Qi Mo was still a small colonel, and he made a lot of achievements and made outstanding achievements on the battlefield.
During the Battle of Cangzhou, Qi Mo led his troops to raid the house, killed a family member, and finally secretly hid the fifth young lady of that family.
Qi Mo liked her at first glance. The girl is also a strong temperament, and she always wants to kill Qi Mo and avenge her family.
There was no war in the girl's eyes, only this Shura-like man killed her family and robbed herself.
What annoyed her the most was that Qi Mo had a family background before meeting her.
Fifth Miss Shen tried to kill Qi Mo several times, but he finally found out. She was only a weak girl, and was finally taken by Qimena as a concubine.
Qi Mo's methods were vigorous and resolute, and Fifth Shen disobeyed him several times, deliberately disturbing the house.
Mrs. Qi didn't like this vixen who fascinated her son, so she took advantage of Qi Mo's absence to spar with the fifth Miss Shen with Qi Mo's first wife.
Qi Mo repeatedly hit the wall on the fifth Miss Shen, so he simply watched from the sidelines. After a long time, he found that the thorns on Miss Shen Wu's body were gone, and he lowered his eyebrows to him, and his face became more pleasant.
Qi Mo was very happy about this for a while, and he was even more fond of Shen Wu girl. He stayed in her room every night, giving whatever he wanted.
This year, Qi Mo gave birth to a son.
Everything looked good until last night, when Qi Mo was ordered to encircle the eighth prince's rebels, the fifth girl Shen set a fire and burned herself and her youngest son to death, as well as Qi Mo's mother and direct descendant who were trapped in the old house. wife.
Qi Mo's relatives died cleanly, and Miss Shen Wu made him feel what it means to be broken and ruined.
Qi Mo was heartbroken and decided to resign.
Tantai Jin could see that this courtier with good methods had no business in his eyes. Even if he didn't take action, Qi Mo wouldn't survive this winter.
The sound of silk and bamboo was hard to hear, and the soul-killing nail on the heart began to ache.
He touched the position of his heart, and the matter of Qi Mo's concubine made him inexplicably a little uneasy.
He stood up suddenly, wanting to see the girl he hated so much.
Ye Bingshang couldn't help but say, "Your Majesty! The palace banquet hasn't..."
He didn't look back a step, and said lightly, "After the banquet is over, you can go back by yourself, you have nothing to do."
Ye Bingshang watched the Emperor Xuanyi leave, his nails sinking into the palm of his hand.
Tantai Jin came all the way to the Leng Palace, and the sound of silk and bamboo has long since disappeared. He knew that he shouldn't be here before he was fifteen. He had already said that he would never have any feelings for her again.
He raised his hand and put it down again.
Tantai Jin was the prince of the Zhou Kingdom, so he naturally knew what day it was today. The emperor guarded the person he loved and prayed for a heir today.
He shouldn't be here, he looked cold and turned back to his palace.
Qi Mo will end up like this, because he is useless.
In the Hall of Chengqian, the soul-devouring flag was spinning in the air. Tantai Jin looked at it for a long time and said, "Old Taoist, Gu remember you said before that there is a magic weapon that can bind a person and make her never leave."
The black mist rolled, and in the laughter of Jie Jie, the old man came out respectfully.
"Exactly, but this is an evil thing. If your majesty uses it, it will also damage your majesty's body."
"Bring it."
Lao Dao immediately took out two golden bracelets: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, although this is an evil thing, it is also a rare body protection instrument. to the soul."
Tantai Jhin looked at the two bracelets and buckled one on his wrist without hesitation.
The bracelet automatically fits his wrist.
A trace of blood dripped from the corner of his mouth, which Tantai Jhin wiped away expressionlessly.
He curled his lips in a mocking look.
*
Only when Su Su fell asleep, the door was opened.
Winter is about to begin, although Zhou Guo is not as cold as Xia Guo, but it is difficult to cover the ragged thin quilts of the cold palace.
She sat up from the bed and asked the person, "What are you doing here?"
Both of them knew that it was less than fifteen today.
The young man was silent, pulled her wrist, and said coldly, "I heard something today, Qi Mo's concubine killed his whole family."
Susu said, "So you are afraid that I will kill you too."
After a pause, she added: "And Ye Bingshang?"
Susu couldn't see his expression, but the presence of the man's breath made her very uncomfortable. She wanted to withdraw her wrist, but he didn't let go.
He sounded with a cool voice: "That's right."
Something cold was pushed up from her wrist, like a snake licking her pale skin.
"What is this?" Susu resisted.
Tantai Jin said: "Of course it's something that makes you feel bad, give up, once you put it on, you won't be able to take it off."
Gouyu said: "He lied to you, this is a mallard bracelet, a pair of magic tools from the evil sect. He also has one in his hand, and it is a pair with yours. With this, you can't leave him for seven days, if true If you leave, you will die, and so will he."
After thinking about it, Gouyu added: "At the same time, it can also protect you from harm."
Susu's icy little hand was held in the palm of Tantai Jin, she was silent for a long time, the resistance on her face dissipated, and a shallow pleasure came into her heart: "The essence of the soul is in the body, he can't die. Under the thunder, the mallard bracelet is trapped. Don't let me, since Tantai Jin likes to control, let him see with his own eyes how the mallard bracelet shattered."
He thought that everything in the world was under his control, and then he would know how powerless many things in this world were.
