Views:

Chu An was in a daze for a day, and the imperial physicians came several waves one after another, but they did not say what the cause was. In the end, he used the words "Sacred Shang Su Ri was too concerned about state affairs, exhausted his mind, lacked qi and blood, and just rested". dismissed him.

Lying on the dragon couch, he thought, when he recovers, the entire hospital will be replaced.

Yesterday he was still in good spirits, but today he suddenly became top-heavy, and he didn't disappear even after lying down for a day. His qi and blood were too "suddenly" insufficient.

He frowned and tried to get up, but his limbs were weak and his head weighed thousands of pounds, so he couldn't get up at all.

In the end, he had to give up, closed his eyes to rest, and listened to the doctor's words for the time being.

The dream has the fragrance of flowers, and I do not know where it comes from. He opened his eyes and looked, but this was not the palace, and there was no palace servant guarding the bed. At this moment, he is standing, his limbs are no longer weak, and his head is no longer heavy. He looked at this quiet valley, wondering where it was.

All over the mountains and plains, there are flowers blooming. In the valley, another woman was dancing.

Her dancing posture is light, her long sleeves are flying, her face is covered with a light gauze, her face is invisible, but her faintly visible face has a beautiful appearance.

Chu An suddenly regained consciousness, this is a dream. After being drowsy for a day, I suddenly saw a beautiful woman dancing. Even in a dream, I felt wonderful and relieved my fatigue.

He walked closer, looking at the woman dancing under the flower tree, and felt more and more that even a fairy was nothing more than that.

It's just that the valley is quiet and silent. If there is music accompaniment, this dance should be more graceful.

Once upon a time, there was a beautiful woman in the palace who was proficient in music. Just ask them what dance they want to dance, and they can choose the best accompaniment music for the dancers.

However, four years ago, when she wanted to kill him, he gave her 10 feet of white silk.

Since then, no one in the palace is as proficient in music as she is.

He retracted his thoughts, and when he saw the goddess finished dancing, he walked over, stroked his palms and said, "Good dance."

Even in a dream, he is not stingy with praise.

Maybe it's because I'm in a dream that I'm more willing to praise others.

Xifeng retracted the dancing dummy phantom, appeared on the top of the tree, sat cross-legged, and quietly watched the people under the tree. It was a man in his thirties. Even after a day of lethargy, his instrument was still neatly repaired and he was in good spirits.

After all, he was still a young man five years ago, but it has been ten years since he ascended the throne, and when he ascended the throne as a young man, he was able to manage the Moon Kingdom in an orderly manner, and he had to say that he was quite skillful.

For Chu An, Xifeng was reluctant to comment too much, even Qian Luo never said a word to him, let alone her.

"This is a dream? But it's not as real as a dream." Chu An asked, "Where does the girl come from?"

"If I say I'm from Jiuxiao, can you believe it?"

Chu An smiled: "Of course I believe it." This dream was fun, he asked, "I don't know if the goddess is in a dream, what advice do you have?"

Xifeng said, "Among the benefactors this time, there is a woman who calls Luo Cuihua."

Chu An has an unforgettable ability, glanced at the roster, and knew where the benevolents were from and what their names were. He lowered his eyebrows for a moment and said, "There is indeed..." He felt a little surprised. At this time, he believed that this was indeed a dream of a goddess, not a dream that he usually had.

He seemed to understand something and asked, "Then the people of Luoliang are people of Fuze my country? The goddess wants me to make her a concubine?"

"It is indeed a blessed person, but it is not for you to make her a concubine."

He thought about it again, and his eyebrows were already gloomy: "That is the woman who brought disaster to the country and the people, and I will get rid of her."

Just two guesses would kill people. Xifeng felt that the emperor of the Moon Kingdom was indeed expected to be an emperor, and she said, "Neither."

Chu An suddenly smiled: "I didn't ask me to seal her as a concubine, nor did I kill her, and I asked the goddess to point it out."

Xifeng said: "That Luo Cuihua, originally the goddess of the Nine Heavens, went down to earth to experience calamities, but because the old man was dim-witted and did the wrong errand, she was selected as a good person. However, she is an extraordinary body, and she will return to the immortal after a hundred years. Ban. Now that the rules are out of order, it is like you are changing the destiny, and the punishment will be borne by you."

Chu An paused: "This has nothing to do with me."

He couldn't say it was Yue Lao's fault, but if the goddess blamed him, he would still pull Yue Lao to block the sword.

"So for her, for you, and for Yueguo's national fortune, I entered your dream."

Chu An hurriedly thanked her and said, "I'll have someone send her out of the palace and back to Luo's house."

"No need."

"Don't have to?"

"Because she never entered the palace."

Chu An said again: "How is this possible, this year's benefactors have already entered the palace one after another, and the eunuch did not say that Luo Cuihua was not there."

"That's not Luo Cuihua. The real Luo Cuihua is cultivating in Yingshan. She will return to the mortal world after receiving divine help. According to the established marriage, she will become a biological child. After a hundred years, she will return to Jiuxiao."

He had heard of Naying Mountain, and it was indeed a place where the immortals practiced. Ordinary people could not go there. He also asked people to visit, and wanted to get divine help, but the carriage could not even get close to the foot of the mountain.

Seeing that he was dubious, Xifeng had long expected that he would be suspicious, and she added: "I will call the divine beast to lead the way for you, and go to Yingshan to welcome her back to the mortal world. If you are not at ease, you can send a confidant."

Chu An unexpectedly said: "Can mortals who don't have the fate of immortality go?"

"Yes, because my mount is leading the way."

Chu An only believed that she was a real goddess at this moment, but after thinking about it, she felt wrong: "Then who is Luo Cuihua in the palace now?"

"it's me."

Chu An unexpectedly said: "It's actually the goddess you?"

"In order to allow my disciples to cultivate with peace of mind, and to bring blessings to Yueguo, I'm here." Xifeng said for a long time, but seeing that he couldn't fully believe it, he really wanted to jump down and grab him by the collar. Q—Do you believe it or not, believe it or not, I will beat you up if you don’t believe it!

Chu An asked, "How can I trust you?"

West Wind really wants to beat people!

She patiently said: "Before winter comes, plum blossoms will not bloom. If they bloom, there will be divine help."

Chu An frowned, not knowing the meaning. Just as he was about to ask a clear question, he felt a bump under his feet, an abyss suddenly opened up, swallowed him, and he sat up suddenly and woke up from his dream. The palace servants who were guarding on both sides were startled, and he hurriedly asked him what was wrong.

Before he was fully awake from the dream, and when he was trying to think about the appearance of the goddess, he heard someone knock on the door outside, and said anxiously: "Holy? Are you awake?"

The palace servant in the house hurriedly opened the door and asked, "What is the father-in-law to report?"

Chu An was still thinking about the dream just now, and wanted to see the woman named Luo Cuihua. Suddenly the father-in-law outside the door said anxiously: "The plum blossoms in the garden, for some reason, suddenly opened!"

Chu An was stunned, what the goddess said was actually true.

The plum blossoms that only bloomed in winter are already blooming very well. The naked eyes can see that the white plum blossoms are blooming one by one on the branches. They bloom very slowly, but they are indeed blooming.

There was a sudden vision in the palace, which caused the palace people to talk about it. They always felt that it was a manifestation of God, but they didn't know whether it was a blessing or a disaster. However, they did not forget that there was still the Lord of the Spirit Hall in the palace, so they were not too panicked.

Chu An has also searched for Li Qianzhan and came to see that Mei's vision.

He was still uneasy about the identity of the goddess, and could not tolerate the slightest mistake. Only when Li Qianzhan confirmed that it was not an ominous omen could he be relieved.

"I feel unwell today, and there is a goddess dreaming in my drowsiness. I told me that among my beloveds this year, there is a woman named Luo Cuihua. She is a goddess who has gone down to earth and cannot enter the palace. Then she told me that the plum blossoms will bloom, and she will prove her identity as a goddess." Chu An said, "Now the plum blossoms are really blooming, but I am not at ease, so please leave the hall master to identify whether it is a goddess or an evil spirit."

Li Qianzhan looked at the plum blossoms that were blooming in the courtyard one after another, and the person sitting on the plum tree, who was casting spells and blooming, but did not speak.

Xifeng also saw Li Qianzhan. She didn't expect Chu An to be so suspicious. She threw out several evidences that made people unable to doubt her identity as a goddess, but he still didn't believe it. In the end, he still had to ask the hall master of the spirit hall.

If Li Qianzhan said she was a witch, it would be over.

Since she decided to impersonate the girl Cuihua, she has already thought of this method - to let the girl Cuihua escape safely, so that the Luo family will not be charged with bullying the king, and how to make the girl Cuihua and Zhou in the future. Xiucai is open and aboveboard together, she has thought about everything.

But she never thought that Li Qianzhan would appear in the palace.

Li Qianzhan was still looking at her, and he could see that Xifeng had made up his mind. If he had any signs of exposing her, she would go up to fight him and block what he was going to say.

"It's a happy event." Li Qianzhan slowly retracted his gaze and said, "Flowers are beautiful and prosperous things, and the arrival of a goddess in the moon country is a sign of auspiciousness."

With a reassurance, Chu An no longer doubted him, and was very happy. He turned his head and said to the father-in-law beside him: "The decree is to allow Luo Cuihua to leave the palace, and the reward is ten thousand taels."

Xifeng shivered, ten thousand taels of gold? She grasped the flowers that had not yet bloomed in her hands, and her hands were full of fragrance. Lord Luo asked her to pretend to be Miss Cuihua for a while, so she wouldn't settle the account with him, but she had to take the money given to the Luo family.

That's right for yourself!

"Not in the Holy Spirit."

As soon as the four words Li Qianzhan came out, Xifeng suddenly came back to his senses. Li Qianzhan, who was staring at her, continued: "Although Luo Cuihua is a goddess, she is a calamity after all. It may be a love calamity, or it may be about money. According to the goddess, the Holy One can let her out of the palace. , and the rest, it is best not to interfere."

Chu An nodded and said, "The Palace Master Li said yes, okay, then take back the reward and let her out of the palace."

West Wind Angrily threw the plum blossom in his hand, and it won't bloom! She's going to fight!

Li Qianzhan ignored her, Daoming had something to do and left first. Because Xifeng still wants to show Chu Eucalyptus flowers, she squatted on the branch full of resentment, the flowers bloomed sadly, and her heart was bleeding—when will she become a rich little lady in Xifeng

Li Qianzhan came out of the garden, but after walking two palaces, he noticed that a familiar spiritual force was always standing in the courtyard where he was moving forward, and he did not leave. Even if he approached, it did not remain the same as before. Avoid.

The palace is not big for them, but they have never met, and there is only one explanation - avoiding each other.

But now that person doesn't seem to plan to avoid it, he paused and thought for a moment, and continued to walk forward without avoiding it.

Soon he saw a tall man.

The man in the blue robe stood out in the courtyard that was dyed and withered by the autumn of August. He raised his eyes slightly, looking at the flying eaves, thoughtfully. It wasn't until Li Qianzhan came in that Qing Yuan retracted his gaze, looked at him, and said, "Long time no see."

Away from Qian Zhan Dingbu, he looked at him with his hands behind his back: "Farewell for a hundred thousand years, you have changed."

"You have also changed." Qing Yuan said, "You have become like a mortal."

"Mortal? Do you understand what a mortal is?"

"There are emotions, emotions, and six desires." These are what Xifeng said. Mortals are different from gods and demons. There are many emotions and various subdivisions. Different from indifferent gods and demons, the feelings of mortals are very troublesome and complicated.

Li Qianzhan asked, "What are your intentions for following Xifeng?"

"I came out of the seal and happened to meet her." Qing Yuan said, "Don't be afraid."

Li Qianzhan said quietly, "What am I afraid of?"

"I'm afraid I'll use her." Qing Yuan said, "Although you cut me, I won't count on Xifeng."

Even if the wounds left by the gods and demons have been healed, the scars will still be faintly hot when seeing the person who left the wound in the future, as if to remind the injured person, don't forget who gave this knife.

The scar from the collarbone to the waist has been burning, making Qing Yuan uncomfortable. He stretched out his hand to press the scar and said, "If you hadn't stopped me on the way back then, Mo Ye would have died. But as a general of the Mo clan, how could you watch Mo Ye die with your own eyes, so even if you knew that you would lose both, even Even if you die in my hands, I will also stop it. So, although my position is different, I don't hate you who are loyal, and I can't hate you now."

Li Qianzhan stared at him coldly and asked, "Why?"

Qing Yuan said, "Because you are the father of Xifeng, and I like Xifeng."

A thousand battles are silent.

The cold palace atmosphere, like the cold winter, is even colder and colder.

"Xifeng is very powerful. He hides the aura of the demons very well, and he can almost completely disguise himself as a mortal. I didn't understand why, but when she mentioned her mother, I thought that it was probably because half of Xifeng's body was inside. mortal blood."

Qing Yuan said slowly, he thought about these words for a long time, should he say it or not.

But in the end he decided to tell everything, because this is the knot in Xifeng's heart.

Even her inner demon.

And that evil spirit appeared twice, and even wanted to devour her.

After going through Princess Qianluo's incident, he believed that Xifeng could also defeat the inner demon, would not be used by Mo Ye in the future, and could even control the inner demon himself.

Therefore, he did not deliberately avoid Li Qianzhan.

He even knew just now that the west wind was coming.

He slowly raised his head to look behind Li Qianzhan, Xifeng was standing by the door, holding the door frame tightly with one hand, his fingers were white, almost blood.

Xifeng stared at him blankly, so he already knew it.

She had a hunch that he knew about her extraordinary person, but she didn't expect that he even knew about her relationship with Li Qianzhan.

This is the relationship she doesn't want people to know the most in her life.

It happened that Qing Yuan knew.

And that person is the general of the Demon Race, and he has fought against Qingyuan many times, and even the terrible scar on his body is also left by her father.

She was ashamed, she felt guilty, she didn't know how to face him.

"Xifeng." Qing Yuan called her name calmly, he just wanted to let her know that even if he didn't like her, he didn't care about his status as a god or demon, what's more, he liked her - very much.

Xifeng's stomach was turning upside down, and his face was terribly pale. What is she going to say? Li Qianzhan was here, she couldn't say anything.

She originally wanted to tell Qingyuan about the Six Realms after the affair with Cuihua was over, and then explore his attitude towards the demons, and let him accept her identity bit by bit, but she didn't expect that he would first She told a truth that caught her off guard.

It's like cooking, just a spoonful of soy sauce is enough, but he suddenly poured it into the basin, which made her panic, and she didn't know how to end it.

Suddenly she saw Li Qianzhan look back, and when she met those indifferent eyes, she felt even more cold all over her body, so cold that she shivered all over, and instantly remembered how he looked when he killed her mother with his own hands.

Xifeng felt a faint stupor and could hardly stand up, staggering and escaping from here, leaning on the palace wall.

"Xifeng—" Qing Yuan hurriedly chased after him, passing by Li Qianzhan. He paused again and said, "I'm going to find Xifeng, don't come with me, or Xifeng won't talk to me properly."

Li Qianzhan said indifferently, "You don't have to tell me this."

"Oh, then I'm leaving, father-in-law."

"… "
