Legend of Fu Yao

Chapter 135: Thousands of Miles (1)

Views:

This sound sounded like thunder to Meng Fuyao's ears, almost deafening her ears.

It's done!

On the opposite side, Xuanyuan Cheng, who was talking with a smile on his face, suddenly stopped talking, and looked around suspiciously.

Meng Fuyao remained calm, immediately raised the finger that had been on the knee, looked around in embarrassment, and said to himself: "I really can't get used to wearing the armor, and it broke again."

On the middle finger of her left hand, half of her armor was broken.

Xuanyuan Cheng's eyes turned, and he retracted his wandering eyes.

Meng Fuyao was afraid that the "click" sound would come again, and her armor could not be broken again and again, so she quickly coughed slightly, covered her sleeves and covered her lips with a smile: "The regent is laughing, my palace is not used to the climate of Kunjing, Some are catching a cold." Turning to tell "Chunmei", "Go ask Xiao Anzi to get one of my ginseng Anyang pills."

"Chunmei" blessed Fushen, turned around and was about to leave, Xuanyuan Cheng suddenly said: "The queen has a cold? What's wrong with this? Chunmei, go to the front yard and let the medical officer of the palace come over."

Meng Fuyao didn't hear well, An Mei obviously couldn't hold back her bones anymore, and she still had to walk to the front yard, and something would go wrong halfway, when she wasn't by his side, she was entangled by Xuanyuan Cheng, and it was too late to save her.

"It's just a small cold, and the palace has already prescribed a prescription for recuperation. Using other medicines may conflict with it. Besides, it's late at night, so it's not very convenient." Meng Fuyao bit the word "convenient" extremely Heavy—Your Prince Regent is still staying in my boudoir, which is also very inconvenient.

Xuanyuan Cheng still didn't understand, and said with a smile: "Speaking of which, the Empress is the younger sister of the royal family, what's inconvenient for my own family." After he finished speaking to Meng Fuyao, he turned his head and scolded An Mei in a cold voice: " Don't go yet!"

Meng Fuyao was so angry that his temples seemed to be pounding, he barely held back, walked over slowly, and said, "In that case, Chunmei, you go there..." Xuanyuan Cheng looked slightly relaxed, Meng Fuyao suddenly leaned over, leaning on An Mei's body, An Mei stretched out her hand to help, but Meng Fuyao had already stood up straight, and slapped her away.

"Stupid girl! How many times have I told you not to put the small censer of benzoin under the table, and accidentally kick it out and stumble... I still haven't cleaned it up for me!"

Her slap was very skillful, it sounded loud and clear, but the wind of the palm fell in the air, and the long nails inlaid with enamel and red jewels on her ten fingers slid down, tearing the neckline of the dark charm. , An Mei hastily stretched out her hand to cover it, and Meng Fuyao scolded again: "You shameless thing, what place is this, let you make a fool of yourself and show your ugliness! Anzi drag her out for me, and let the nanny teach her again!"

She spoke quickly, and as soon as she finished speaking, Anzi bowed, dragged "Chunmei" viciously, and walked away, scolding: "You are an old man who is with the empress, why are you still so careless? When we get to the palace..." His voice gradually faded away, and a woman's low sobs could be heard faintly in the distance.

Meng Fuyao turned around "in a huff", smiled reluctantly at Xuanyuan Cheng, and said, "I made the prince laugh, Chunmei is a maid brought from Changning, she is not clever, but she has been serving me since she was a child, leaving her behind. Looking at her, it's just a thought..." As she spoke, her eye circles turned red.

Xuanyuan Cheng looked at her, he had indeed heard that although this Yuwen Zi was the eldest daughter of the Yuwen family in Changning, she was quite neglected because of her mother's early death and her concubine's room was big. But it was a bit fierce, but now it seems that it fits well, so he quickly smiled and said: "The empress is filial and fraternal, and she is gracious and lenient. This king understands."

Meng Fuyao supported the table with his hands, raised his sleeves slightly to block a yawn, squinted at the Jin Ziming clock, and said with a smile on his face: "This benzoin is so boring..."

Xuanyuan Cheng was "surprised", looked at the time, and smiled slightly apologetically, "I was so concerned about the queen's phoenix body that I forgot the time, please forgive me."

"My lord's words are serious." Meng Fuyao replied, "My lord's conversation really makes me admire, and I hope I can teach you more when I enter the palace someday." Then he called his attendant, "Send the lord off on my behalf."

She had sent someone to send Xuanyuan Cheng, so Xuanyuan Cheng couldn't wait any longer, stood up, and said with a smile, "The empress should rest in peace earlier, my king ordered the medical officer to move to the inner courtyard, and listen to Madam Hou's orders at any time."

At this moment, Meng Fuyao just wanted him to leave quickly, so he quickly agreed, and Xuanyuan Cheng babbled on and on, Meng Fuyao's fingers were pinched in his palm, but his face remained motionless, and he answered one by one, smiling, with a decent demeanor. Fang said, sending Xuanyuan Cheng to the second gate, and while hearing the movement behind him, he blocked the door firmly, standing still with a smile on his face, and sure enough Xuanyuan Cheng walked up a few steps and suddenly turned around, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty!" Please go back and rest early."

His eyes flicked across Meng Fuyao's face coldly, and finally he relaxed a little because of her unhurried and happy attitude, and walked out.

Meng Fuyao closed the door slowly, and called Xiao An again: "Anzi, put down the curtain." "Chunmei, pack up and fetch water to remove makeup!"

Her voice came out clearly and crisply, and was separated by the closed door.

As soon as the door was closed, Meng Fuyao immediately turned around and rushed out.

She rushed to the inner room, pushed open the door quietly, An Mei was still wearing the "Chunmei" outfit, standing behind the door without changing her clothes.

Meng Fuyao saw at a glance that he hadn't returned to his figure, stomped his feet anxiously, and said: "You you you...why didn't you recover quickly!"

It wasn't until this time that the crackling sound of joints stretching came out, Anmei said in a low voice: "What if he turns around..." Before he could finish his sentence, he had already fallen straight down.

Meng Fuyao stretched out her hand to support her, but before she could speak, An Mei spat out a mouthful of blood, which dyed her half body bright red, shocking her, and in a panic, Meng Fuyao hit his big acupoints and moved him to the couch Just as he was about to heal his wounds, he suddenly heard the door behind him, and Xiao An came in and said, "The regent is outside the courtyard gate, and he seems to be telling the people around him something, but I can't hear it from far away."

"Is it possible for you to contact His Majesty?" Meng Fuyao looked back, his eyes were bloodshot in an instant, "Xuanyuan Cheng's suspicions have not gone away, and there must be some action tonight. The most likely thing is that an assassin came to me and asked me to move and search. We have to figure out a way first."

Xiao'an thought for a while, and said: "There is a way, it's just..."

"I don't care what method you use, you find a way to get Xuanyuanmin here, otherwise I'll walk with my ass slapped, and all conditions will be void." Meng Fuyao interrupted him impatiently, "Hurry up!"

Xiao An pondered for a moment, bowed, and backed out.

※※※

Another sleepless night tonight.

In the middle of the night, the quiet Prince Regent's Mansion was suddenly shattered by a loud shout of "There are assassins!", and then a flash of fire flashed across the night sky, instantly illuminating the dark palace.

Everyone moved very quickly, exceeding the efficiency under normal circumstances—the guards were all neatly dressed and appeared where they should appear, and the regent quickly left his bedroom, with a single button on his robe uncluttered, and his eyes clear It seemed that they hadn't slept at all; the crowd quickly opened the encirclement net in an instant, leaving no dead corner.

The "Assassins" appeared very strangely, they seemed to be everywhere, and they seemed to be everywhere. The guards chased them chaotically, gradually from the front yard to the back yard, from the back yard to the inner yard, from the inner yard to... the real purpose land.

"Empress! There are assassins sneaking into the inner courtyard of the palace. For the sake of safety, I would like to urge you to move away. If you disturb the place where the phoenix drives, I will accept the crime." Xuanyuan Cheng's powerful voice sounded as the guards surrounded "Yixinju". After that, it resounded throughout the backyard.

"Yi Xin Ju" did not move.

Xuanyuan Cheng frowned, and repeated it after waiting for a while. His voice didn't sound loud at first, but it lasted a long time, not only in the whole palace, but even in the palace.

This time there was finally movement. After a while, a lazy and charming female voice came from "Yi Xin Ju", lazily said: "This palace is very safe, why move around in the middle of the night? Let's just do it."

Xuanyuan Cheng raised his brows, suspicion flashed in his eyes again, and said in a deep voice: "Since the empress is staying in the palace, I will take the responsibility of the queen's safety, and I dare not slack off. If there is any mistake in the accident, I will not be able to absolve myself of the responsibility if I die, so please move me away."

The courtyard was quiet again, and after a while Meng Fuyao replied: "It has nothing to do with the lord, if there is anything wrong, I will take it myself."

The suspicion in Xuanyuan Cheng's eyes grew stronger - when he stepped out of his daughter's boudoir earlier, he vaguely saw something flashing on the wall of Yixinju, as if it had never appeared before, and later in Yuwen Zifang, he also seemed to hear some strange noises, He didn't know what that sound was at the time, but when he thought about it later, he thought it sounded like the sound of joints struggling. He was sure that the sound wasn't from Yu Wenzi, so who was it? At that time, the room was full of people, so there was no need to doubt the ones he brought over by himself, the rest were the people around Yu Wenzi, and when he thought of the dark shadow on the wall, how could he not be startled

Although this Yu Wenzi is impeccable and fits perfectly with his memory data, what about the people around her? What's more, at this moment, Yu Wenzi repeatedly refused him to enter, which made Xuanyuan Cheng even more suspicious.

If it was just a cloud of doubt before, it is now a cloud of darkness, which must be broken.

"Your Majesty is joking, you are a girl, if an assassin breaks in and hides, how can you protect yourself?" Xuanyuan Cheng said loudly: "My Majesty is in danger, and the responsibility of a humble minister must not be ignored - please move your Majesty away!"

As soon as he waved his hand, thousands of guards shouted in unison: "Please move, my lady! Please move, my lady!"

The deafening sound enveloped the entire yard, shaking the copper bells under the eaves to ring slightly.

"Alas..." A helpless female voice sounded, and Meng Fuyao sighed for a while: "Then please come in alone, the prince."

Just as Xuanyuan Cheng was startled, Meng Fuyao said again: "My lord is considered a brother of the palace clan, so there is nothing to avoid suspicion, it's really... really... you can come in."

She hesitated as she spoke, Xuanyuan Cheng's eyes flickered when he heard it, he thought for a while and said: "This minister takes orders."

The chief guard of the royal palace beside him hurried over and tried to dissuade him in a low voice: "My lord, your body of a thousand pieces of gold..."

"It doesn't matter." Xuanyuan Cheng smiled elegantly, but his tone was faintly arrogant, "There is no one in the world who can take my king's life with one move, not even a senior brother."

Under the light of the bright torches, he pushed open the door of Yixinju alone. The courtyard door opened silently. The third courtyard was completely dark. As for the mysterious Hei, his heart skipped a beat for no reason.

Then he calmed down—what could there be? killing? assassin? Sleeper spy? Very good, just let him come and go.

The blue satin soap boots knocked on the flowery stone floor, the sound of footsteps was distant, and the courtyard was surprisingly quiet, so that after entering the courtyard three times, there seemed to be a faint chuckle.

Xuanyuan Cheng stopped in his tracks, his eyes puzzled in the darkness.

laughter

In the dark courtyard in the middle of the night, the lights were not burning, and surrounded by thousands of soldiers with murderous intent, suddenly hearing laughter was a bit mysterious.

Xuanyuan Cheng snorted silently in his heart—is he suspicious? Want to force me to quit by myself

He lifted his clothes and strode faster, but the true energy in his whole body had already been raised. Wherever he walked, the flowery and rocky ground was as smooth as before, but after he walked away, faint cracks appeared, extending all the way to the end.

He quickly entered the third courtyard, but there was still no one there.

The laughter died suddenly.

The courtyard was as quiet as if there was no one there, but it seemed that the courtyard was full of people's peeping eyes, lurking in the corner behind the courtyard wall, deep in the flowers and trees, everywhere, Xuanyuan Cheng took a deep breath—the other party is very good at attacking the heart ? The calmness makes people unbearably nervous.

Unwilling to be manipulated like this, he suddenly shouted: "Queen, my humble minister is rude!"

The power of the palm came out first, and the sound came out later. Before he finished the word "Queen", he had already split open the closed door of the inner room with his palm!

"Boom—" The heavy palace door hit the wall, shaking so much that even the room seemed to shake, and all the window sashes were knocked open by this unsurprising but ingenious force, leaving the view inside unobstructed Now in front of Xuanyuan Cheng's eagle-like eyes.

"Crack—"

After a low sound, the lights came on, instantly filling the room and courtyard with light.

Immediately, I heard the woman's soft voice, muttering: "Come on... let me get up... how decent..." Halfway through the words, there seemed to be something blocked, and there was another burst of soft and deep laughter, during which there seemed to be something The man laughed lowly.

Xuanyuan Cheng was stunned on the spot.

Under the bright light, the man with spring eyebrows was half-naked, with a pajamas slanted over his shoulders, showing his half-jade-like shoulders. He walked over, leaned on the frost-covered window and said with a smile: " The regent is so spoiling the scenery, so I will make a joke with you."

Behind him, there is a room with beautiful pink curtains, and the screen is half hidden. Behind the screen, "Yuwen Zi" sat up half-slantedly, with her hair in a bun, and the corners of her eyes flushed. From the tip of the red eyes, it can be seen that the wind and rain have just passed, and the spring breeze once.

Xuanyuan Cheng never expected to meet such an embarrassing scene. He stood in a daze for a while, then bowed his body and said, "I'm sorry...but why is Your Majesty here..."

"I've come a long time ago..." Xuanyuanmin poked his finger on his cheek, his eyes flashed with a smile, "Well... I even listened to what you said when you pulled my queen."

Xuanyuan Cheng was startled again, and said suspiciously: "It's already here."

"That's right." Xuanyuan Min smiled charmingly, "Zi'er and I haven't seen each other for a day like three autumns, and we've mixed up with the guards who sent her to the palace earlier, my lord, you pick up the queen at the gate of the palace and go to see Yun." Son, didn't you notice me?"

Xuanyuan Cheng remained silent, his eyes flickered as if he was thinking, and he said for a while: "Your Majesty, such behavior is not in line with etiquette, you... are also absurd..."

"Come on," Xuanyuanmin waved his hand, and waved off his loosely wrapped robe. He didn't try to cover it up, and stood calmly and naked, calling out to the maid. Scope, I am lucky to be my queen, what can I do... Chunmei, help the empress to take a bath, Anzi, bring me clothes, I wear them and talk to the regent."

Someone responded sweetly, and came in to help "Yu Wenzi", the delicate and ordinary servant, who looked like Chunmei, helped "Yu Wenzi" get dressed quickly and nimbly, while An Zi quickly stepped forward to serve the yawning Xuanyuan Min dressed.

Xuanyuan Cheng took a step back, his eyes swept across the entire three houses, the windows were all open for a panoramic view, the quilt in the small room was lifted, it looked like it was the place where Chunmei had just slept, An Zi was blindfolded, the inner hall entrance There was the short couch where he slept on vigil—everything looked really normal.

It was so normal that he had no excuse to stay any longer.

Taking a step back, Xuanyuan Cheng said: "It's night, and I have to go to court tomorrow morning, Your Majesty, please rest early, I will take my leave."

"Don't talk anymore?" Xuanyuanmin stopped, and said a little disappointed, "I heard you and the queen talking about the anecdote of the Seven Kingdoms, and I was very interested to hear about the witch in Fufeng Kingdom." He patted Patting his cheeks, he said with great interest: "Every time I pass Dun Lun, I feel particularly refreshed. By the way, I have a prescription, the secret recipe for strengthening yang and conceiving children..."

"Your Majesty, please take care of the dragon's body. I will take your leave." Xuanyuan Cheng finally couldn't bear this topic, but He Ya resolutely interrupted him, and retreated with a slight bow. Then he heard his order, and was busy on guard The guards in the middle of the night retreated in dismay.

In front of the window, Xuanyuan Min stood for a long time, watching Xuanyuan Cheng's back disappear into the darkness, and the gate of the triple courtyard was closed one after another behind him, with a sneer and sneer in his eyes.

That expression disappeared in a flash, and then he lazily turned around, waving his sleeves, and threw himself at "Yu Wenzi" on the bed, "Oh my Zitong, let's fight Sanbaihe again..."

"boom-"

Meng Fuyao stomped it over with one foot, trampling His Majesty the actor who came to rescue him after all the hard work in the middle of the night...

"If you dare to pretend to be real, I dare to turn you into a fake Phoenix Phoenix!"

She kicked away the sticky actor emperor, overturned the gold-inlaid and jade-encrusted gums, and hugged the half-conscious Dark Charm from underneath. , I don't know if the unlucky guy under the bed heard it, didn't he hear it, didn't he hear it? It's really embarrassing, we have never made such a flirtatious voice in our life, and in front of other men, we have lost our fame for a lifetime...

Seeing An Mei's eyelashes trembling slightly, but she didn't seem to be awake, Meng Fuyao breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to check his injuries, but Xuanyuanmin suddenly came over, took An Mei and said, "Let me see."

"You?" Meng Fuyao squinted at him, distrustful.

"I won't show it to you? Do you understand whether men and women kiss each other?"

This damn actor, now he would say that men and women can't accept kissing, Meng Fuyao couldn't laugh or cry, and avoided going out, but in a blink of an eye, he signaled Master Yuan Bao, who had been hiding all this time, to climb up the roof beam and help her keep an eye on her.

There is no way, Xuanyuan, who is in crisis every step of the way, everyone wears a mask and everyone is unfathomable, he can't completely trust anyone, and he must always keep his heart on everyone... With a candle, thinking of Tie Cheng who had to be kicked out of the mansion in order to help her enter the palace, and thinking of Wuji Yinwei who has not yet been able to approach her side, she suddenly felt a strange loneliness.

But she didn't know that as a troublemaker, her loneliness was always temporary, and in that neighboring country, a certain person was raising his dark eyes, scanning the dark and dark Xuanyuan territory, and was about to approach her...

※※※

The world is so big, everyone has their own way of life, Xuanyuan Regent's Mansion frightened you to come and me to go, the situation is dark and turbulent, thousands of miles away is the capital of another country, this famous city in the world that should have been damaged in the flames of war , but because of the contribution of a certain person, a smooth and peaceful transition of prosperity has been maintained. Of course, this is also related to the astonishing diligence of the tireless emperor in the imperial city. A certain unscrupulous person forgot to go to bed after he flew into the sky.

On November 26th, the first year of Dahanyongji.

The Qinzheng Hall was still brightly lit after the fourth watch. Ji Yu, who personally kept watch at night, looked at the unextinguished lamp and the iron-black figure with his head bent over his desk reflected on the window paper, and sighed for the thirteen hundredth time.

A eunuch hurried over in front of him, bringing the officer of the intelligence department under his command. Ji Yu looked at the officer's face with a little panic, and couldn't help but focus his eyes.

The officer handed over two letterheads, and said with a bitter face: "One of them was pressed at the bottom of the paper file by the new official, who didn't know its importance. It was just checked out today... I hope your lord will speak a few words of kindness to His Majesty on your behalf..."

Ji Yu silently took it and nodded. His Majesty was really in a bad mood recently, so he was reluctant to listen to him.

He entered the hall and presented the secret report.

"Your Majesty, the intelligence department flew a secret report."

Zhan Beiye, who was frowning and contemplating, had his eyes lit up, grabbed it and tore it apart, read it hastily, and threw the secret report on the case, saying: "What's the matter with me after Xuanyuan is established? It's worth a special trip to fly pigeons to report!"

Ji Yu is silent... It seems that all the movements of the royal families of various countries are within the scope of the intelligence department's detection...

"Your Majesty, there is another one." Seeing that Zhan Beiye threw the letter away, not intending to read it again, Ji Yu reminded, Zhan Beiye frowned, and reluctantly opened the second letter, first glanced at the date, and immediately frowned Frowning, said: "Why did it take so long to deliver it?"

Before Ji Yu could answer, his gaze suddenly froze, and he looked back after reading it quickly. He stared at those words tightly, as if he wanted to swallow each word into his heart, and he took a long time to look away.

The hall fell silent, a little strangely quiet.

"Snapped!"

The letter paper was suddenly thrown by him with a thunderbolt, and it was thrown on Ji Yu's face like a steel plate!

Zhan Beiye's roar could be heard throughout Qinzheng Palace.

"How did it take so long to deliver it!"

The tone of the same question was different, Zhan Beiye's face was livid, his eyes were blood red, and his whole body was trembling.

Such an important secret report has been delayed for a whole month!

Ji Yu silently fell to his knees and bent over. He had already seen the contents of the letter, and as the head of the intelligence department, he could hardly escape the blame.

He lay down on the ground and said bitterly: "I...with a disabled body, it will be difficult for your majesty to control the secret secretary. I beg your majesty to come down and cut the minister's position, so as to serve as an example to others..."

Zhan Beiye was shocked. In a blink of an eye, he saw Ji Yu's empty sleeves hanging limply on the ground, his bent shoulders were as thin as a knife, and his temples were already white with stars. In a trance, he thought of Ji Yu back then. The man, the most handsome leader of the Black Wind Riders, Ge Ya's girls flock to him, and even Mu Zhenzhen, the most beautiful flower of the Fufeng Shaodang clan, gave him precious tortoise shell beads... The old boy is gone.

And the reason why he neglected his duties was because after Fuyao left, he was afraid that something would happen to his worries, so he guarded him day and night, thus neglecting his duties as the intelligence department. In just a few months, Ji Yu was more emaciated than him. ruthless.

"Get up..." Zhan Beiye's heart was surging, and he said wearily for a long time: "It's just the fate of the thief..."

But Ji Yu couldn't get up, and kowtowed again: "Your Majesty, if you are guilty, you must not go unpunished. I ask you to remove me from the position of chief secret officer."

"Even you want to leave me?" Zhan Beiye looked at him bitterly, turned around, his thick and slender back was projected in front of a large map of mountains and rivers on the wall, stretching for hundreds of thousands of miles, and alone in front of the lonely lamp.

Looking at his back, Ji Yu finally burst into tears, barely suppressed his sobs, and said in a low voice: "In the place of dignity in the imperial court, disabled people should not be allowed to be officials. ridiculed by the world..."

"Who dares to ridicule you?" Zhan Beiye suddenly turned around, "You are a national hero, you have left your name on the Merit Pavilion, and you are a famous general who has been famous for a long time. If anyone ridicules you, your head will itch!"

"Your Majesty..." Ji Yu said softly, "I want to go to King Han's fiefdom."

Zhan Beiye was stunned, and suddenly understood the painstaking efforts of this old minister. He stared blankly at Ji Yu, took a step back and sat down on the throne, his eyes were already red after a while.

"Xiaoqi will come back eventually, he will definitely improve after some experience, and I am relieved." Ji Yu kowtowed, raised his face with a faint smile, "I have been sending people to follow him, there is news from Xuanyuan , he entered the Regent's Palace... Your Majesty..."

"Huh?" Hearing Ji Yu's words, Zhan Beiye suddenly felt that something was wrong, he was thinking carefully, and answered casually.

"King Han is in Xuanyuan, and," Ji Yu's words were shocking, but confirmed the doubt that flashed in Zhan Beiye's mind just now, "I suspect that Xuanyuan's sudden new queen is her!"

Zhan Beiye suddenly stood up, stretched out his hand and overturned the pile of memorials in front of him.

"She dares!"

※※※

The moment Zhan Beiye lifted the table, far away on a certain mountain in a certain place, someone gently lifted a table among the misty clouds and floating flowers.

"Junior Sister has really improved a lot. In a few days, I will no longer be your match." The eldest grandson Wuji of the Yuting Pavilion smiled subtly, and neatly arranged the table that had been destroyed by Taeyeon just now, and stretched out his hand. Cited, "I admit defeat, can I stop?"

Taeyeon stood opposite him in groups, her complexion was blue, she gritted her teeth for a while and said, "Changsun Wuji, can you stop being so disgusting? I said ten thousand times that I don't want you to let me go!"

The eldest grandson Wuji smiled and said nothing, went to the bridge railing on his own, frowned slightly and looked at a distant place. The mist in the mountains beside him was like a brocade, rising in the jade white snow lotus everywhere, making his eyebrows look high Hua is like a man among gods.

"It's up to you whether you want to let it go; or not, it's up to me." He can always use the most understated tone to annoy Taeyeon to death, smiling as usual, and walked away with a flick of his sleeves, "If you don't agree , there is a heavenly stone on top of your head, just jump off it."

He left Taeyeon who was trembling with anger behind him, turned around the corridor, saw the old man in green clothes standing with a smile when he raised his eyes, and immediately bowed down respectfully.

"Master."

The old man looked at him with a smile, his eyes were full of smiles at first glance, but when he looked again, he felt nothing. He said, "Are you competing with Taeyeon again?"

The eldest grandson Wuji smiled and said: "Junior sister travels thousands of miles every day, and my apprentice is also happy for her."

The old man frowned, and said: "Taiyan's talent is limited, and she will not be someone with outstanding talent in my family who can be carried forward."

The eldest grandson Wuji remained silent.

The old man looked at him, his eyes were cloudy like the haze in the mountains, and he said lightly: "Are you still unwilling?"

The eldest grandson Wuji was silent for a moment, and replied: "Uncle Shi's lineage is a person in the sky, and he has experienced many years in the world of mortals, so he should..."

"That's my business." The old man cut off his words lightly, stared at him for a long while, and said in a calmer tone: "Wuji, you have always been my favorite disciple, and you have never disappointed me in these many years. Why are you only a few years old? Has it changed like this?"

"I am ashamed of my master's painstaking efforts." Changsun Wuji lifted his clothes and knelt straight down, kneeling on the wet and cold white jade ground, but said nothing more.

The old man bowed his head slightly, seeing the proud disciple's gentle but impeccable posture like water, a flash of anger flashed in his eyes, and after a while, he flicked his sleeves coldly.

"Just stay here and think for yourself! When will you understand, and when will you get up again."

Changsun Wuji smiled, his robe spread out like snow, and he bent down gently in the wet and cold snow.

"yes."

※※※

Good luck is all due to Meng Fuyao, and bad luck is due to her hapless suitors.

The one who flipped the table, and the one who made him kneel was made to kneel. The two emperors tried hard to get her to be the queen, but a certain person went to an unrelated country to experience the queen's addiction first.

On the thirteenth day of Meng Fuyao's palace, he finally passed through doubts, temptations, spies, and being spied on without any danger.

Xuanyuan Cheng has never been able to find out Yu Wenzi's doubts, and Xuanyuan Min's appearance that night also explained the movement of the wall and the noise of the joints very well-Xuanyuan Min was very smart and did not specifically explain these two doubts. Leave it blank and let Xuanyuan Sheng reason and answer it himself, which is more believable than his special explanation.

I have to say that Xuanyuanmin is really not someone to mess with. When he came over that night, he actually remembered to bring a palace maid who was similar in figure to Chunmei. For a while "Chunmei".

Meng Fuyao could tell that Xuanyuanmin had been keeping a low profile for many years, and now that he had matured in secret, he was planning to fight Xuanyuancheng for the last match, and Xuanyuancheng seemed to be aware of it, otherwise he wouldn't have forced him to become queen so hastily, and now the fight is over. It is freedom and time. Xuanyuanmin needs her as a fake queen to help him get rid of his shackles in the palace. As for his overall plan, he will not say, and Meng Fuyao will not ask—all she cares about is always Friends who are kind to themselves, do these things, in the final analysis, only for Zong Yue.

It’s just that sometimes I think about it, and I can’t help worrying—once Xuanyuancheng is resolved, Zongyue and Xuanyuanmin will also be in a difficult situation with opposing interests. Once the common foreign enemy is gone, internal troubles will arise, and what will happen then? the result of

The game of the world is like falling pieces on a chessboard. If you make a wrong move, you will lose the whole game. In Xuanyuan's game, Meng Fuyao no longer takes the lead, and is willing to be a pawn, just to help Zong Yue at the critical moment in the future.

Even if you are a chess piece, you have to be a sturdy chess piece. This is Meng Fuyao's principle. Only if you are strong enough can you move forward on this dark, bloody and conspiratorial Wuzhou continent. Meng Fuyao has been practicing more and more diligently recently, "breaking The third level of "Cloud Steps" on the sixth floor of "Jiuxiao", in Xuanyuan Cheng's fast, brisk and powerful steps that she saw that night, she gradually gained a glimpse of the mystery, and the breakthrough was only a matter of raising her hand.

On the sixth day of December in the twelfth year of Xuanyuan Zhaoning, it is an auspicious day for the emperor and empress to get married.

In the middle of the night, Meng Fuyao was tortured and got up to do her makeup. After cleansing her skin, she twisted her face with gold thread, and applied a layer of fine pearl powder. Brush, dipped in snails and painted it a little bit, the blue and blue color of distant mountains, hazy and noble beauty, the eyebrows are drawn at the corners of the eyes, smooth and delicate arcs, flying like a phoenix, light purple deep sea The powder made from pearls is mixed with oil and applied to the corners of the eyes. With just a few touches, the already bright eyes are enhanced by the eyeshadow to create a sense of depth. The slightly spoon-shaped gold hairpin at the top is used to inlaid red sapphire glass beads. Gently sip it in the tin box, melt it with the palm of your hand, and lightly splash it on the cheeks, the sweet fragrance will make your face brighter, then apply lip makeup, dip in rose oil to comb your hair, and replace it with bright yellow multicolored Zhai pattern pieces and sea dragon edge phoenix robes, In a bun, wearing a phoenix crown—decorated with kingfisher feathers dotted with emerald clouds, surrounded by eighteen plum blossoms made of pearls and precious stones, flying phoenixes and golden dragons with jeweled tassels in their mouths...beautiful is beautiful, just like a dead person.

It was four o'clock, and it took two hours to finish makeup. Meng Fuyao supported the even heavier phoenix crown on his heavy head, feeling that the weight on his neck and the powder on his face were enough to crush him to death. Damn, the empress is really not human. Do it, I will never be a queen again in this life!

She touched her face - I have to say that Xuanyuanmin's mask-making techniques are almost close to Zong Yue's. The masks they made are as thin as a cicada's wings and as delicate as real ones. I don't know what kind of potion they used to treat them, but those pores can still be maintained. It is breathable, and you can put makeup on the mask directly. Meng Fuyao remembers watching Zong Yue clean up his medicine box by accident. There was a mask in it, so thin that you could see your own fingerprints clearly when you held it in your hand, and the water droplets could see through it. Over-exudation—it is already a miracle that the mask can achieve this level.

The grooming lady seemed very proud of her skills, and helped her to put on makeup in front of the standing bronze mirror. Meng Fuyao stared at the person in the mirror in a daze. She was luxurious, elegant and radiant. Yes, dazzling.

A figure suddenly and slowly appeared in the bronze mirror, dressed as a maid, but with a pair of glazed eyes, "she" silently looked at Meng Fuyao dressed as a queen, her eyes were a little strange, so deep and so far away , surged like waves, and the waves seemed to drown the people in front of them.

But Meng Fuyao showed a heartless big smile at "Chunmei"—she was in a good mood today, and she was always worried about An Mei, but he shrank her bones that night. Meng Fuyao was afraid that he would suffer from permanent illness, so he refused to help him feel his pulse several times, and was also worried that on the day of his wedding, An Mei, as a "personal maid", would probably He is a busy character, so how can his body handle it? Fortunately, today there is a hair combing lady in the palace who came to serve her specially, so she doesn't need to do anything with "Chunmei", and just follow the big cart later. Student Meng Fuyao is relieved, and immediately feels good, and she doesn't have so many opinions when she is a queen. .

She scratched her cheeks and scratched her thick powder, thinking that it's a pity that she is unlucky, Xuanyuan Cheng is too shrewd, otherwise it would be great to find a way to escape from the palace in these three days... Sigh, forget it, there are some things, since I did it Just do it to the end.

Outside the gate of the courtyard, the Prince Regent has already led the Minister of Rites, and the two envoys to greet the bride, the Imperial Master, urged them outside the gate, and an incense case was set up in the courtyard, and Meng Fuyao received the imperial decree to enshrine the empress, and very casually put the gold plate in Xi Niang's hand After putting it aside, I thought it would be better to take less things like the golden book. Last time I registered a vassal king in Dahan, which directly caused me to be exiled to Xuanyuan. Help the wind go.

The registration ceremony was followed by the welcome ceremony. Meng Fuyao first took a sedan chair in the inner courtyard, and then changed to Huang Fengyu at the screen wall in the front courtyard. The little worker who was rushing to work overnight to arrange the flower scene carefully avoided kneeling behind the flowers and trees or behind the wall. Meng Fuyao glanced at it, and suddenly felt that there was a familiar figure from the back, but the sedan chair passed by quickly, and there was no chance to see it clearly.

That figure from the back was Xiao Qi, he buried his head in correcting a crooked flower scene, thinking about it, he hadn't seen Meng Fuyao after entering the mansion for a few days, and he didn't know where she was, he was engrossed in his thoughts, he didn't at all Concerned about the so-called Queen Luanjia, but a small worker beside him pulled him and said in a low voice: "Hey, the queen is here, don't kneel!"

Xiao Qi raised his head, gave him a fierce look, and made the man shrink back, but Xiao Qi knelt down slowly, still without raising his head, feeling the sedan chair passing by, and there seemed to be eyes behind the sedan chair.
