The majestic coercion was like a mountain, and Qiao Xuan's bones creaked under the pressure. He suddenly knelt down on the ground with one hand, his forehead was dripping with cold sweat, his eyes were sore, and he almost wanted to cry.
He really just wanted to borrow a way, but instead of finding the map of mountains and seas, he got into such trouble!
Everyone said that Emperor Hualan was generous and benevolent, a good god with high morals and high esteem, who never did anything like killing innocent people and bullying the weak... But at this moment, Qiao Xuan felt his undisguised murderous intent!
Qiao Xuan had no doubts that if he said a wrong word at this moment, Hua Lan would easily wipe him out like an ant.
The strong sense of crisis prompts Qiao Xuan to think quickly. If I tell the truth, I’m sorry. I just wanted to borrow your mountain and sea map and accidentally broke into your forbidden area. I didn’t mean it. I really didn’t mean it. When you're done, you'll be wiped out...
No, I must save myself!
Fortunately, Qiao Xuan also remembered now, why did he feel that this place was familiar before, it was clearly his home in the first life!
This puppet was also built exactly like him! Obviously Hua Lan is related to his first love robbery, but the object of his first love robbery is clearly not Hua Lan, but Xiao Lu, the emperor of Nanyue Kingdom. Xiao Lu has been dead for almost a thousand years, and Hua Lan's appearance is also different It's completely different. It stands to reason that Hua Lan can't belong to that person...
But everything in front of him tells him that Hua Lan is indeed related to Xiao Lu.
Since I can go through the catastrophe, is it possible...
Dijun, are you also going to go through the catastrophe
The situation is critical, so I don't have time to think about it, so I can only take a gamble!
Qiao Xuan raised his head with difficulty, his eyes were slightly red, his expression seemed a little confused and frightened, and he softly called out: "Your Majesty..."
Hua Lan met the boy with watery eyes, and suddenly took a breath.
At this moment, Hua Lan seemed to go back thousands of years ago, in the lonely deep palace, the young man waited for him silently, day after day, when he came, he would show a joyful and expectant expression, and call him softly : Your Majesty, you are here.
As if he was his whole world.
Pain appeared in Hua Lan's eyes.
The appearance of the young man in front of him is different from his Xuan'er, but at this moment the young man is staring at him in a daze, calling him His Majesty softly, every subtle expression of the young man, and the slightly trembling ending sound, all of these seem to be Xuan'er. My child reappears in front of my eyes...
Even the puppet he carefully crafted is not as similar as the boy in front of him.
A dead thing is a dead thing after all, and they have similar appearances, but they don't have half the charm.
But Hua Lan found a familiar feeling in the young man in front of him after a long absence...
Hua Lan's anger dissipated slowly, and he landed on the ground, looking at the young man in front of him with dark eyes.
Before he was entertaining guests outside, he suddenly noticed that his puppet was activated. This puppet would only speak when someone came, and Hua Lan would know any reaction, so when he noticed that the puppet moved, he immediately realized Until someone broke into the forbidden area!
Thinking that someone dared to trespass here, Hua Lan was furious, and left the banquet immediately without hesitation.
However, what he didn't expect was that he could feel the familiarity he had missed for a long time on this intruder, and the young man called his majesty with red eyes... Hua Lan couldn't continue to attack no matter what.
He took a deep breath, stared down his eyes, and said lightly: "Who are you?"
The coercion dissipated, and Qiao Xuan suddenly loosened his body. He half knelt on the ground, bowed his head and thought desperately.
I bet right!
But if he does not reveal his identity, the sense of familiarity he deliberately created for Hua Lan just now can only be regarded as a chance for him to speak. Murder...
How should I make up a reason
Would anyone believe someone who said he broke in by accident? TT
That damn unreliable stupid crane!
Qiao Xuan raised his head slowly, his eyelashes trembling slightly, and looked at Hua Lan pitifully, biting his lips and not speaking.
Hua Lan's expression sank slightly, he should have asked him, how did you come in, what plan did you have, what did you want to do... But for some reason, he met the young man's eyes, and subconsciously asked a sentence: "Why did you just now, Call me Your Majesty."
The heavens are not like the common world. The title of emperor is just a respectful title. It does not mean that he is the emperor of the heavens. He can live and kill the fate of the person who seizes the palm. Although other gods respect and fear him, they will not use the title of "Your Majesty".
But the young man's expression and address just now are more like a mortal man facing a king...
In order to survive just now, Qiao Xuan had to pretend to be the old man to lure Hua Lan to show mercy and recall his memory of himself, but this did not mean that he wanted to recognize Hua Lan. , Xiaoxian has just ascended to the fairy world, and heard that the emperor is a respected person in the heaven, so it's difficult, isn't Xiaoxian's title just now wrong... "
Oh, just that
Hua Lan was noncommittal.
Qiao Xuan looked at Hua Lan carefully, and stammered: "Xiaoxian, it's the first time for Xiaoxian to come to Tiangong. She has no experience, accidentally lost her way, and this is why..."
Hua Lan narrowed her eyes and looked at him, as if to say, let me see how you make it up.
Qiao Xuan was soaked in cold sweat by Hua Lan's gaze. Just when he was cornered and had nothing to say, a white figure suddenly appeared above the crack in the sky.
Jiang Weiqing's clothes fluttered with the wind, his eyes were extremely sharp, his eyes swept away, and his figure instantly appeared in front of Qiao Xuan, protecting him behind him, blocking Hua Lan's sight!
Qiao Xuan raised his head in a daze, looking at Jiang Weiqing's back.
How could Jiang Weiqing just appear, he shouldn't have been paying attention to himself...
Hua Lan's expression suddenly turned cold. Just now Jiang Weiqing refused Ruohua, and he didn't show any displeasure, but at the moment he was obviously very dissatisfied, with a cold expression, and said slowly: "This is the forbidden place in my palace. Sword Lord came here rashly. I'm afraid it's a bit inappropriate."
Jiang Weiqing's eyes were indifferent, and his attitude seemed modest, but he didn't take a step back. He fixedly looked at Hua Lan and said, "This person is my newly ascended disciple of Guiyuan Sword Sect. It's his fault that he strayed into the emperor's forbidden place by mistake. I hereby apologize to Dijun for him, but he is my Guiyuan Sword Sect disciple after all, even if he made a mistake, I should take him back and punish him, there is no need to bother Dijun."
These words seem to be polite and restrained, but they clearly mean to protect the calf.
Hua Lan looked at Jiang Weiqing.
Jiang Weiqing cupped his hands in salute, and said: "If the emperor has no objection, I will take him away and teach him well, and I will never do it again."
After finishing speaking, he grabbed Qiao Xuan's wrist and said in a deep voice, "Let's go."
Seeing that Jiang Weiqing took people away.
Hua Lan's eyes were slightly cold, that young man was clearly talking nonsense just now, the place of the banquet is far away from this place, no matter how he breaks in, it is impossible to break into this place by mistake, and he can pass through his own restriction unscathed, which is not something ordinary people can do Yes, that statement just now is also full of mistakes...
This is his heavenly palace, if he insists on keeping the boy, Jiang Weiqing will never want to take the boy away easily.
But she still let him go.
Just because of that moment of familiarity.
It was as if a voice told him: If you kill him, you will definitely regret it.
However, you, who are so similar to Xuan'er, appeared in an impossible place, what purpose and why did you come here
As for Jiang Weiqing, why did he defend a newly ascended disciple so much
Hua Lan thought about it.
He stepped into the courtyard, the puppet boy sat quietly in the wheelchair, and when he saw him coming, he showed a bright smile: "Your Majesty."
Hua Lan raised his hand and gently stroked the boy's hair, tenderness and attachment appeared in his eyes, his lips moved, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he just sighed slightly, turned around and left from here.
Ripples rippled in front of the mountain wall, and Hua Lan appeared outside the forbidden area.
The desolate palace was quiet, everything was as usual, Hua Lan narrowed his eyes slightly, and suddenly stretched out his hand, a crane hidden in the woods fell in front of him with a plop.
The crane trembled and kowtowed repeatedly, too frightened to make a sound.
Hua Lan stared down at it, still didn't understand what was going on, and said in a cold voice, "It seems that you are too pampered on weekdays, and dare to invite outsiders here casually, spit out all the benefits you have taken, and then Go get the punishment."
Hearing the words, Xianhe collapsed on the ground with a heart as dead as ashes, regretting endlessly!
It should have left earlier, but it stayed because of a momentary curiosity. That shameless guy was so vicious, he threatened and lured him, and he didn't like him long ago... I thought that if Qiao Xuan was discovered, the emperor would not He will be merciless, so wait here to watch Qiao Xuan's jokes.
Who would have thought that the emperor let Qiao Xuan go so easily, but he was caught straight again, not only vomited out all the benefits, but also was punished, what a steal!
... ... ...
Before Qiao Xuan could recover, he was taken away by Jiang Weiqing.
In an instant, they returned to the previous courtyard.
Qiao Xuan calmed down now, annoyed and depressed at the same time, either that crane was too stupid, or he was deceived by that crane... And how did he expect to see his puppet here? Can't even dream of it!
So angry!
Jiang Weiqing looked back at the young man with a frown, and wanted to comfort him, but saw that the young man was absent-minded, gnashing his teeth, annoyed and tangled for a while, with a very rich expression, but there was no sign of remorse.
Jiang Weiqing pursed her thin lips, and said in a deep voice, "Do you know your mistake?"
The cold voice fell into his ears, and Qiao Xuan raised his head abruptly, facing Shang Jiang Weiqing's displeased eyes, and stood there in embarrassment.
In any case, Jiang Weiqing's timely appearance just now helped him a little bit, and this is definitely not the time to be brave, he must bow his head when it is time to bow!
Qiao Xuan blinked, and immediately admitted his mistake obediently: "I know I was wrong, thank you Lord Jian for your help today."
The young man was clearly distracted just now, with a look of indifference, but now he admits his mistakes cleanly...
But not sincerely, but not necessarily.
Jiang Weiqing's hand on the side tightened slightly.
Back then, his Ah Xuan was also like this. She couldn't stay still and couldn't get sleepy, like a bird that couldn't be kept shut. She yearned for freedom by nature, loved to play and made trouble, and always sneaked out of the sect. How many times has Master Hong been angry...
Every time I go to pick him up by myself, help him clean his ass, and help him plead with the head of the sect, the usually spooky young man will only pretend to admit his mistake obediently when he is reprimanded by the head of the house, and then go out. When there is no one else, turn around and make a face at him, and say thank you for today with a smile...
Always admitting mistakes, never changing.
I don't know what happened today. After rejecting Ruohua, I accidentally found that Qiao Xuan was not there... Just when Hua Lan left the table in anger, he subconsciously felt that something was wrong, so he immediately chased after him.
As expected, Qiao Xuan really got into trouble.
At that moment, Jiang Weiqing had no time to think, he withstood Hua Lan's pressure and brought the boy back from there...
But the boy is not his Ah Xuan after all.
Jiang Weiqing's expression gradually turned cold, and he said: "We will return to Yuan Jianzong in three days. Before that, you should stay here and think about your mistakes behind closed doors."
After finishing speaking, with a wave of his hand, a ban appeared and locked Qiao Xuan in the room.
Qiao Xuan stood at the door of the house, oh well, he was locked up.
Today is really a bad start, who would have thought that Hua Lan is also related to the previous life
Qiao Xuan sighed quietly.
... ... ...
Qiao Xuan's first love disaster was 1000 years ago.
In that life, his name was Rong Xuan, and he was born in Nanyue Kingdom in the mortal world. He was the grandson of Grand Master Rong at that time.
Nanyue Kingdom is different from East Chongzhou. It is not a place of practice, but a country of mortals.
At that time, the monarch of Nanyue Kingdom was weak and incompetent, his relatives were in power and the government was unstable, the general of the town was powerful and powerful, and his sister was the queen of a country. Killed, so that the whole court was in a state of panic.
The queen's natal family has power in the government and the public, and she favors the six palaces, but she has nothing to do, so she adopted a little prince.
This prince Xiao Lu later became the emperor of Nanyue Kingdom.
It is also the object of Qiao Xuan's love robbery.
Xiao Lusheng's mother's status was low, and both mother and son were precarious. After his mother died unexpectedly, he was brought to the queen.
The queen told him that his mother died of illness...but Xiao Lu knew it was not.
At that time, Xiao Lu was only five years old.
But he knew that if he wanted to survive, he had to pretend he didn't know the truth.
He buried his hatred deep in his heart, deliberately acted mediocre and incompetent, obeyed his mother's words, and respected the general. He lived as if walking on thin ice, and tried to make the other party think that he was not a threat, because he knew his position very well, he was just a town. The general and the queen supported it—a puppet.
To be a puppet, one must act like a puppet.
He has always played well, and when he was seventeen years old, he was pushed to the position of prince logically.
As for his other brothers, they were naturally dead long ago, crazy and crazy.
A few years later, his father died of illness, and he ascended the throne as emperor. In order to reassure the queen mother and General Zhen Guo, he married the daughter of General Zhen Guo as the queen.
Continue to be an obedient puppet emperor.
However, as the Son of Heaven, how could Xiao Lu be willing to be a puppet, surviving under the hands of his enemies? Moreover, General Zhen Guo was brutal and greedy, and the people of Nanyue Kingdom were in dire straits, all of which made him unwilling to do so.
But reckless confrontation is nothing but a dead end, he must bear the burden of humiliation.
Fortunately, in the current dynasty, there were not a few people who opposed General Zhen Guo, Xiao Lu was not completely alone, and Grand Master Rong was not only Xiao Lu's teacher, but also Xiao Lu's most staunch supporter.
Grand Master Rong is upright and upright. When the late emperor was still alive, he was one of the few old ministers who dared to speak out. The late emperor always respected him very much, and let him be the prince and grand teacher. Xiao Lu was born with intelligence and a heart. The world has ambitions in mind... At that time, the two formed a teacher-student friendship.
After the late emperor left, in order to avoid suspicion and not arouse the suspicion of General Zhen Guo, Xiao Lu gradually distanced himself from Grand Master Rong on the surface, but secretly often went to the teacher's house to discuss.
Of course, these things... Rong Xuan only found out later.
Rong Xuan is Grand Master Rong's youngest and most beloved grandson, because he was weak and sick since he was a child, and his legs and feet are inconvenient, so he has been raised in the mansion and rarely goes out.
The young man yearns for the outside world, but he can only learn about it from miscellaneous notes in books and the mouths of relatives and servants.
His world is small and simple, only as big as the Rong Mansion... Until one day, a strange man accidentally broke into his world.
That day he was staying in his own courtyard, and was about to dig a hole to bury the homemade peach blossom wine, but because of his inconvenient legs and feet, he fell to the ground all of a sudden. He was in extreme distress, when suddenly someone pushed the door and entered, and his steady and strong arms shook him. He picked him up, and when Rong Xuan raised his head, he saw an elegant and handsome man. The man asked with concern in his eyes: Are you okay
Rong Xuan seldom saw outsiders, and seeing a man so good-looking, he felt a little embarrassed, thanked him repeatedly and said he was fine.
He was about to continue by himself, but the man didn't leave, but looked at him with a smile and offered to help him.
Rong Xuan saw that he had an extraordinary conversation and luxurious clothes, maybe he was his father's distinguished guest, how could he ask a guest to help him? Who knew that the man didn't mind half of it, smiled and asked him for half a jug of wine as a reward, then rolled up his sleeves to help him dig a hole.
Rong Xuan was startled.
He sat on the wheelchair with his chin resting on his back, looked at the handsome and noble man, and calmly helped him bury the altar of peach blossom wine...
The man was about to leave when he finished his work, Rong Xuan hesitated for a moment, and tentatively asked, do you want to take a break? Drink some tea and play chess
He blinked and looked at the other person expectantly. In fact, it was rare for someone to come over and wanted him to accompany him...
The man looked at him for a moment, then suddenly smiled, and said yes in a low and pleasant voice.
That day they chatted, played chess, made tea... Time passed faster than usual, until Rong Xuan's father came to find him.
Rong Xuan's father is the eldest son of Grand Master Rong, and also the Minister of Rites of the court. He usually looks dignified in front of Rong Xuan, but at this moment he has a respectful attitude when facing the man. He glanced at the appearance in the yard, and gave Rong a rare stern look. Take a look.
Rong Xuan shrank his neck, thinking that this man is indeed his father's distinguished guest, but he doesn't look arrogant at all, and his conversation is funny and approachable. He told himself a lot of interesting things outside today, and no matter what he said, the man can Talking to him, it can be seen that there are many hobbies to figure out...
It was the first time for Rong Xuan to meet someone who chatted like this.
When parting, there was actually a little bit of reluctance. Seeing that the other party was about to leave, Rong Xuan suddenly said: "Will you come again in the future?"
After he finished speaking, he was very anxious, he didn't dare to look his father in the eyes, and turned his face away with some discomfort.
Unexpectedly, the man turned his head and smiled, his eyebrows and eyes were gentle, and he said yes, I happen to have a copy of the book you mentioned that could not be found, and I will bring it to you next time.
Rong Xuan was overwhelmed with surprise and nodded repeatedly.
I just casually said something during the chat, but I didn't expect the other party to notice it.
His father seemed to have some concerns and wanted to dissuade him, but in the end he just said to him that Mr. Xiao has a noble status, so let him get along with Mr. Xiao in the future, and he must not exceed the rules and be rude.
Rong Xuan's legs and feet are only inconvenient, and he is not stupid. Of course, he can see that Mr. Xiao has a noble status, but they only make friends based on whether they hit it off, and what has their status to do? Besides, I will not be rude to my friends.
Young Master Xiao kept his promise, and a few days later, in Rong Xuan's anticipation, he came over with the notes of Layman Baishan.
Rong Xuan was overjoyed, like a child who got a baby, and thanked him again and again.
Young Master Xiao said that it was just a matter of raising one's hand, so you don't have to be polite. You can call me Big Brother Xiao from now on. Calling you Young Master is a bit out of character.
Rong Xuan readily agreed, in fact, he also thought it was better.
Since then, Brother Xiao has come here often.
Every time Big Brother Xiao comes here, he will bring him only copies, music scores, snacks, snacks, mechanism toys...
Brother Xiao is witty in his conversation, knowledgeable and talented, and knows everything about astronomy and geography. Rong Xuan especially likes to chat with him and listen to him talk about the outside world. Brother Xiao said that the outside world is so colorful, which makes him yearn for it.
Gradually, the arrival of Brother Xiao became the most anticipated event in Rong Xuan's boring life.
The appearance of Big Brother Xiao made his little corner of the world different from before...
Rong Xuan doesn't know what this feeling is, but he always looks forward to seeing him...
Looking forward to the other party's appearance...
During this time, for Rong Xuan, it was happy and simple.
However, the good times don't last long, and the disaster comes without warning... Or maybe it has already happened, it's just that Rong Xuan is so well protected that no one told him these things.
It was a snowy night that day.
Not long after Rong Xuan fell asleep, there was a sudden commotion outside, and the cold wind poured in relentlessly from the door that was suddenly pushed open. He rubbed his eyes in confusion, and saw his father and elder brother walking in.
His father, who had always been prudent, and his brother, who was kind and gentle, looked more solemn than ever at this moment, and there seemed to be a hint of sadness in the eyes that looked at him.
Although Rong Xuan stays at home, he doesn't understand anything. He realized that something embarrassing must have happened, so he asked quickly, but his father and elder brother didn't say a word, and just ordered the boy to change his clothes , Regardless of his resistance, they wanted to send him out overnight.
Before leaving, my father only said one sentence: Don't come back again, and don't tell anyone who you are.
At that moment, Rong Xuan realized - leaving today is a farewell.
In the past, he always pestered his father and elder brother, acting coquettishly in order to be able to go out, but because his body was too weak, his father and elder brother always disagreed, and only when he begged him that he was helpless Allow him to go out once.
But tonight, everything is in such a hurry.
Without the earnest instructions of the past, without the usual cautiousness, everything is in such a hurry.
Rong Xuan knew that he was going to be sent away...
But he didn't want to leave, he knew he was wrong, he shouldn't always be arguing to go out, he clung to his elder brother's sleeve, cried and said that I won't go out, I won't go out in the future, I will stay at home obediently , I will be very obedient, don't drive me away...
However, the elder brother who always cared for him like an eyeball opened his fingers bit by bit, and ruthlessly pushed him away.
Rong Xuan was very desperate. He cried and said, let's go together, okay
But no one went with him.
Even the little boy who had been with him for many years, that somewhat cautious and timid boy, changed into his usual clothes, smiled at him, and resolutely stayed.
Only he was sent out, watching the figures of his father and elder brother, submerged in the snowy night.
The guards in the mansion hugged Rong Xuan, and quickly stepped into the night.
Rongxuan cried and stretched out his hand, but he couldn't catch anything except a snowflake...
It was very cold outside, the cold wind pierced his bones, and the dark sky was like a whistling deep sea, ruthlessly crushing his world to pieces. He always wanted to go outside, but it was not in this way, nor at this time.
In the pitch-black night, there was no light, and the Rong Mansion was in darkness. After a burst of noise, it became silent.
The guard tightly covered Rong Xuan's mouth, and seeing that he finally stopped crying, he asked him to stay here quietly, and he went to check the situation before returning.
Rong Xuan nodded.
The guard left.
Rong Xuan crawled out from the corner, the ground was covered with thick snow, and the cold was like needles piercing into his fingertips, he was so cold that he almost lost consciousness, but suddenly he didn't feel it, just like that, all the time Little by little, little by little, crawling towards home...
His grandpa, his father, his eldest brother, they are all still at home...
He just wants to be with them.
He just wants to go back and take a look, be with all the people he loves, and he doesn't want to leave alone...
don't want to be alone...
But why is this road so far away...
As far as it seems, there is no end, it is hopeless...
His vision began to become blurred, tears almost condensed into ice, why, why not let him go back...
he wants to go back...
Just when he was about to lose consciousness, he suddenly fell into a warm embrace. He opened his eyes with difficulty, and saw a familiar handsome face.
Brother Xiao looked anxious and worried, looking at him hesitant to speak, but at the moment Rongxuan didn't care about anything, he stretched out his hand tremblingly, grabbed Brother Xiao's sleeve with his last strength, and made a weak begging voice:
Please, take me back, will you
