For the domineering emperor who embarrassed her in public, Shu Yu's bad value suddenly reached the highest point, close to the tiger clan Bai Che who seriously injured Fuwang at that time, and the fox clan chief elder who killed her.
When she returned to her palace, she had been practicing swordsmanship, and none of the maids and eunuchs who were serving her dared to make a sound. Originally, most of the servants in this hall were spies placed by other concubines. .
At this moment, she suddenly became a person and seemed to be tough, and those minions who bullied the weak and feared the tough turned into quails with their heads and heads shrinking while they were puzzled.
Shu Yu has a temper that is softer when it is soft, and tougher when it is hard. When she met Fuwang, who was as gentle as water, she lost her temper at all, but now this overbearing emperor... I'm sorry, Shu Yu said. She's never soft on haters.
The swordsmanship is exquisite, but this body is not strong, and after practicing for a while, you will be out of breath. Shu Yu stopped his hand, and stabbed his sword, thinking about what to do with the sleeping waiter later.
Do you castrate him directly or run first? But there should be some protective guards around the emperor, and this emperor, the original setting is both civil and military, and she may not be able to beat others with her current body. If she ran first now, she would be stopped by the guards before she even got close to the palace gate. The crowd tactics were not fun. Didn't she and Fuwang fall into the crowd tactics earlier
Thinking of this Shu Yu, he felt uncomfortable, and continued to practice swordsmanship with a sullen face. She has a problem. No matter when she is nervous or unhappy, or when she wants to pretend, she likes to put on a sullen face. In front of unfamiliar strangers, she is used to putting on a cold face that can be very bluffing. Only Fuwang could sense the embarrassment beneath her surface.
It was time for her to go to bed after this training, and a group of servants pushed me and looked at her with a face that did not dare to step forward, and finally Tongxiang came forward tremblingly and said, "Mother, it's time to go to bed. It's time, do you want to take a bath, the emperor should be coming soon."
Shu Yu pretended not to hear, and the sword dance in his hand became faster and faster, turning into an afterimage. She thought that if the emperor really dared to come strong, she would fight it out. Just like when she first crossed into the Mengze Demon Realm more than a year ago, she was full of fear and devoted herself to playing the role of Tianfeng Jinyu, for fear of being discovered, but now, she has become more willful. She has seen many scenes in Mengze, and she really has nothing to be afraid of now.
Unfortunately, the emperor failed to come, and he was stopped by Concubine Ning on the way. Concubine Ning was the girl who loosened Shu Yu's bun at the dinner party and was finally screamed by Shu Yu. Her behavior was undoubtedly revenge on Shu Yu.
Concubine Ning: If you want to get the emperor's favor, you are dreaming!
Shu Yu: Well done! Thumbs up for the girl!
This is really a surprise, but the emperor himself did not come, and sent a little eunuch to deliver a box. Shu Yu picked up the letterhead on the box, and wrote a sentence on it with a strong brush: "If you want me to release those Wu Yueguo assassins, I will take the initiative to serve me."
When he opened the box again, there were several bloody fingers in the box. There were palace maids screaming around, Shu Yu calmly closed the box, and went back to the palace to take a bath and sleep.
Hahaha! She is not the original Situ Jingjing. She has seen countless monster corpses and so many strange monster corpses. How can these few fingers scare her? As for the threatening letter, she even ignored it. Could she still cry like Situ Jingjing in the original book and say that her people can't leave it alone, and then obediently throw herself into the arms of the emperor and be slapped by him? I feel sick to my stomach just thinking about it.
It would be better for her to find a way to meet the national teacher. This kind of master is usually a peculiar character. Maybe he can really agree to help her find him
The national teacher lives on Mingyuetai, which is at the junction of the inner palace and the outer palace. If you want to go there, Shu Yu has to go out to the harem where the concubine is located. There is a Canglang Gate to go to Mingyuetai, but there are people guarding it every day. . Even after passing that door, the Mingyue Terrace where the National Teacher is located is said to be a bit weird. There are no palace servants in it, and only the National Teacher lives in seclusion, but without the permission of the National Teacher, no one can enter that door.
Shu Yu went to the South Garden of the Imperial Garden early the next morning, because it was relatively close to Mingyuetai, and she could still see the Canglang Gate. She was going to explore the terrain.
It's just that before he got to Canglang Gate, Shu Yu caught a glimpse of a tall and straight figure in Tsing Yi walking along a small road not far away. The profile of his face that passed through the heavy flowers made Shu Yu's heart shudder when he accidentally saw it, and then he was full of surprises.
Ignoring Tong Xiang's call behind her, she flicked the flower branches and chased after the figure. That's Floating! That is Floating! Shu Yu didn't think about why Fuwang suddenly appeared here. The sweetheart she was looking for suddenly appeared in front of her. She was just so happy that she didn't know what to do. thorough.
The figure in Tsing Yi in front was obviously not far away, but Shu Yu just couldn't catch up. Seeing that figure turned around a bunch of flowers and disappeared and disappeared, Shu Yu couldn't help shouting: "Fu Wang!"
She rushed across the corner, and before she could see the scene in front of her, she felt her foot stumble and fell forward.
"Be careful."
A very familiar voice sounded in his ears, and at the same time Shu Yu felt himself bumped into a warm embrace. Someone pulled her up by the waist, held her shoulders and waited for her to stand up, and then politely let her go. The warm palm brushed against Shu Yu's wrist, making her feel like she wanted to cry.
But when she looked at him pitifully with red eyes, she found that the man standing in front of him did not look the same as Fu Wang. His face was only five points similar, but his temperament was very similar. He was gentle and restrained. When he looked at her, his eyes seemed to be pooled with a pool of peach blossoms.
Shu Yu didn't dare to confirm, and asked cautiously, "Fu Wang?"
The man in Tsing Yi smiled at her, took a step back and cupped his hands: "Here is Ye Linhuai, the son of Taishi Ye, the Minister of Rites, who was offended just now in a hurry. Please don't blame the concubine Jing, the goddess is all right?"
Shu Yu stood there and looked at him, his heart gradually sinking from the sudden surprise, more depression and pain than when he didn't see him just now. The feeling of extreme disappointment made her unable to bear the astringency in her eyes, so she could only lower her head to look at the petals that had fallen to the ground and were trampled.
A plain white handkerchief appeared in front of her, and the man who called himself Ye Linhuai said softly, "Please use it."
Shu Yu hesitated for a while, then stretched out his hand, but instead of taking the handkerchief, he directly held his hand. At this time, she can't control whether this person will feel that she is a pervert. She just wants to verify - when she accidentally jumped into his arms just now, the reassuring feeling is indeed only floating hope. for her. She wondered if she had just been so excited that she had hallucinated.
Suddenly grabbed by the wrist, Ye Linhuai paused, but did not withdraw his hand, but still asked gently, "Concubine Jing, but what's wrong?"
"You are Fuwang, aren't you?" Shu Yu held his hand and didn't let go. She really felt that this person felt familiar to her, especially when she touched it with her own hands.
"I don't know the person that Concubine Jing said. Besides, it has been a long time since the emperor summoned the minister. I don't know what else Concubine Jing has to do? If there is nothing else, the minister will take a step first." Ye Linhuai did not hesitate. He said quietly, and looked at Shu Yu with a smile.
Under this kind of gaze that was like looking at a stranger, Shu Yu had to let go, and once again began to wonder if he missed Fuwang too much, so he regarded this person who looked like Fuwang as him. Thinking about it carefully, Fuwang is unlikely to appear here.
"Offended." Shu Yu said in a sullen voice, and when he saluted and left, she felt that all her strength had dissipated, and she sat down on the stone pier by the roadside.
Tongxiang had just come here, looking at the two of them with a look of horror, and then the anxiety of being seen. Seeing that Ye Linhuai had finally left at this moment, she hurriedly came to Shu Yu's side and said, "Niangniang, what were you doing just now! If someone saw him, the emperor would blame him!"
Neither of them noticed that Ye Linhuai, who had left, had walked for a while and looked back at Shu Yu with an unpredictable expression.
Shu Yu was in a daze, and she thought back to Ye Linhuai's identity. Ye Taishi's son, the Ye Taishi, she still has some impressions, it seems that he is a small villain in the original book, and he does not deal with the emperor. But, isn't that old man infertile? The concubines in the whole house have no children. Now what happened to Ye Linhuai, who has never appeared in this original book like the national teacher
Not long after Situ Jingjing came to Tianyun Kingdom, there were still many things he didn't know. After Shu Yu found that he couldn't find any useful memories, he grabbed Tongxiang next to him and asked, "That Minister of Rites Ye Linhuai, you know him. thing?"
Tong Xiang's face was full of bitterness, "Niang Niang, you can't be like this, although Lord Ye is indeed a handsome son, but if the emperor..."
"Speak!" Shu Yu interrupted her.
Tong Xiang could only whisper: "Master Ye is a famous son in the imperial capital. I don't know how many girls dream of being favored by Master Ye. Master Ye won the title of champion at the age of sixteen, and he is very popular with the emperor. Reuse, praise him for his unparalleled strategy. But I heard that Lord Ye has a strange disease, which is said to have been brought from his mother's womb. Occasionally, he will suddenly become unconscious, and he will wake up after a few days, and sometimes he does not speak a word. I can't hear other people's words, I'm only in a trance, saying that I have a psychosis."
Shu Yu thought in her eyes, and after a while her eyes became firm again. She looked through the branches to see the tall tower spire in the distance. It was the Mingyuetai Tower where the National Teacher was located. It was said that the National Teacher lived in it. She was going to Ask this national teacher.
As for how to get there, Shu Yu decided to explore the platform at night.
It was night, and Shu Yu, dressed as a little palace maid, passed through the imperial garden and came to the vicinity of Mingyuetai. Relying on the vigilance she exercised, she really escaped several waves of night patrols and came to the wall near Canglang Gate.
With the body that is used to the monster of the demon clan, and suddenly turned back into a human, it is really unaccustomed. It is really difficult to go from extravagance to frugality, and it is impossible to climb a wall of such height. Shu Yu gritted his teeth, tried several times, and finally climbed over the wall with difficulty and ran to the bright moon platform.
There was no patrolling near Mingyuetai at all, it was pitch black, and there were only some lights on the highest floor of the tower. The high wall surrounded Mingyuetai, and Shu Yu started to climb over the wall just like before, but after climbing over the wall, she realized a problem. Inside the bright moon platform, there is only one building, the tower, and around the tower, there is water.
Without a bridge, without a boat, would she have to swim across it
Just thinking about it, I saw a small boat approaching the shore. There was no one on the boat, except for a lantern. The lantern opened a mouth and said, "The national teacher invites guests to meet in the tower."
Shu Yu remembered the legend that the national teacher could control the demon. The talking lantern in front of him was not a demon, but a little spirit. So do these non-human creatures that appear in this world have anything to do with Mengze's? Moreover, the national teacher is worthy of being a national teacher, the moral quality of the god stick is really good, it is very easy to pretend to be a ghost~
Be careful to get on the boat, and the boat will head towards the tower by itself. Shu Yu thought about seeing how the national teacher asked him to help find people later, so he calmed down and became a little nervous. She got off the boat and approached the tower. As soon as she walked in the door, the lamp was lit in the tower, and a voice from nowhere said: "The national teacher is praying for blessings, please go upstairs and wait for a while."
There were also lights on both sides of the opposite stairs, as if to guide the way. Shu Yu glanced back at the lake outside and walked towards the stairs. It wasn't until the third floor that the voice sounded again, "Please wait here."
The place where Shu Yu was located was like a reception room, and a bit like a library, because there were tables, chairs, and tea sets on one side, and the tea was steaming hot, and on the other side were many bookshelves. Shu Yuan sat quietly in the chair for a while, and the whole building was quiet before seeing the national teacher appear.
There seemed to be a sudden strong wind outside, blowing a window open and hitting the wall with a bang.
Shu Yu was taken aback, looked over there, and happened to see a book on the bookshelf being blown to the ground, making a soft click.
She hesitated for a while, but stood up and closed the window that had been blown open. Before closing the window, she glanced out, and after just a while, the sky really changed, and dark clouds gathered in the sky, as if it was about to rain.
After closing the window, she went to the bookshelf to pick up the fallen book. The book was spread out, Shu Yu picked it up and wanted to close it and put it back on the shelf, but after a glance, he couldn't help but stop.
On one side of the book is a drawing of a man, covered in blood, stepping on a mountain of blood and a sea of blood, holding a human head in his hand. The smile on his mouth is cold and cruel, which makes people feel fearful at first sight. But what attracted Shu Yu's attention was the text next to it.
- The original body of the demon was a half-demon of the fox clan, and later, by fate, he would descend into the devil. After becoming a demon, he became fierce and violent, and slaughtered all the fox clan demons, causing them to exterminate their clan. , but never died. Instead, he cultivated a great progress and destroyed Burying Shenyuan... After a hundred years of civil strife, the four clans split and confronted each other. Countless demon clans couldn't bear the cruelty of the demon master and retreated to the human world... The demon master led all the demons to chase after him. Killed to the human world, causing all living beings to be charred... The way of heaven will not allow it, and the heavenly punishment will be imposed to suppress the Lord of Ten Thousand Demons, imprisoned in Du'e Mountain, and will suffer from the pain of whipping the soul every day, and will not be able to liberate...
Shu Yu trembled and turned over a page, only to see a line of words:
- More than a thousand years ago.
