The woman lowered her head and did not continue speaking. Dongfang Ming already understood.
After the soul leaves the body, if the Soul Returning Technique is not used in time to slowly return the soul to the body, in severe cases, it may even lead to the death of the body. Especially if he forcibly removes the soul from the mortal body, it will be even more harmful.
The separated soul can never be reincarnated. It wanders in the human world, lonely and helpless, coexisting with the world. As time goes by, the separated soul will gradually lose its memory and become a person without memory and perception, like a walking zombie. Ordinary lonely ghosts.
Such a useless soul is of no use to him.
He stood up and put the book in his hand in the corner of a bookshelf, and said calmly: "I understand, go down and I'll go see her."
"Yes, I'm resigning!" The woman in green held her chest and staggered away.
…
"It's so late, the emperor will definitely not come again." The queen sat in front of the dressing mirror, feeling sorry for herself, looking at her beautiful face in the mirror that had never changed, and smiled to herself.
He secretly thought: "I must be lucky to have the same appearance as the former queen. If I didn't look a bit like her, I would be just a concubine of the prince today. How could I have the glorious status I have today?"
That dance captivated the city and made the king yearn for it every day and never forget it.
She has grown step by step from a little dancer with no identity to the position of high and honorable queen she is today.
"My queen, don't be discouraged, the emperor will definitely come." The maid who was waiting for the queen to comb her hair comforted her softly.
"It's done. There's no need to comb it anymore. Remember, you must ask the emperor to come to this palace today." The queen took the comb from the maid's hand and told her repeatedly: "Just tell the emperor about this." I feel unwell today, lethargic, don’t want to eat, always feel tired, and feel like vomiting.”
"Yes, my dear, don't worry."
The palace maid was blessed and walked out.
…
"Father-in-law, please let me go in and report! I have something very important to tell the emperor." The palace maid almost became thirsty after talking, but she was still not let in.
Extremely anxious.
"The Emperor has ordered that no one be allowed in!" A young chamberlain said categorically, with a look of indignity on his face.
I definitely don’t want the palace maid to go in.
"What's going on? So noisy?"
Wen Xi walked out of it.
"Eunuch Wen, it's good to see you." The palace maid was overjoyed. She spared the waiter and approached Wen Xi. She blessed her body and said, "Eunuch Wen, it's good to see you. The queen is feeling a little unwell and wanted to see her. When I see the Emperor, please ask Eunuch Wen to say something to the Emperor."
"Are you sick?" An imperceptible surprise flashed in Wen Xi's eyes, and she said worriedly: "Then this is not going to be easy. The emperor doesn't have time today. He is busy with government affairs. I don't know how long it will take to read the memorial alone. Queen What disease do you have?"
The palace maid hesitated and said: "Yes... Your Majesty has lost her appetite recently. She always wants to eat sour food, and she gets tired and sleepy easily... "
"Then why don't you ask the imperial doctor to take a look?" Wen Xi said: "If you don't feel well, you have to ask the imperial doctor to take a look. A minor illness will become a serious illness in the end."
The palace maid almost spurted blood.
She had made it so clear that she just wanted the emperor to see the empress. But Wen Xi pretended not to know what he wanted to do. Maybe he noticed something.
The palace maid sobbed softly and said: "The queen feels that she is not really ill, but may be lovesick. She said she misses the emperor and wants him to go and see her in person. Maybe there will be surprises."
"If it's not a disease, then our family will be more relieved." Wen Xi wiped the non-existent sweat on his forehead with relief and said: "It's useless to ask the emperor to see a doctor. The emperor doesn't know how to see a doctor. Besides, it's all fine. Can the emperor see it? It’s all the same, you can’t blame our family for being troublesome, the emperor really doesn’t have time to come out now, the emperor has personally given instructions that no matter how big things are, he cannot be disturbed.”
The palace maid was worried: "Then what should we do? But the empress really cannot live without the emperor. The empress is very likely to be pregnant with a dragon seed. This is not an ordinary trivial matter. Please ask Eunuch Wen to go in and talk to the emperor." "
"The Empress is pregnant with a dragon seed?" Wen Xi was also very shocked by this matter, and his expression immediately became serious: "Why don't you find something to say about the Queen Empress being pregnant with a dragon seed? How can you neglect such a big thing? You first Wait, let’s go in and report to the emperor.”
"Hey!" the palace maid responded.
He despised Wen Xi very much in his heart.
Just now, he said that no matter how big the matter was, the emperor could not be disturbed. Now when he heard that the empress was pregnant, his expression immediately changed.
Wen Xi looked solemn after entering. He didn't know whether he should tell the emperor. If he did, the emperor would definitely value and love the queen even more. Then wouldn't he have failed the former queen's entrustment to him.
But if he didn't say it, he would be sorry for the emperor's trust in him.
How difficult it is!
"Wen Xi, why don't you come in? What happened just now?" Emperor Xuande put down the last memorial and saw Wen Xi standing by the door, so he called him.
"Your Majesty!" Wen Xi walked over and said carefully, "The maid next to the Queen is here just now."
"The maid next to the queen?" Emperor Xuande frowned slightly: "Don't worry about her, just go back."
Although he expected Emperor Xuande to say this, Wen Xi couldn't help but feel joyful when he heard this.
What's going on with that little bit of pride in his heart
I am happy, but I still have to say what needs to be said.
"Your Majesty, the maid said that the Queen is pregnant..."
Before Wen Xi finished speaking, Emperor Xuande stood up with an unpredictable expression on his face:
"Has Dr. Xuan confirmed the diagnosis?"
"Not yet!"
"Come on, come with me and take a look!"
…
"Your Majesty, you are here!" The queen heard the servant's announcement and came out to welcome him.
"Be careful, my dear concubine!" Emperor Xuande stepped forward to support the queen: "I should take care of myself when I am in a hurry."
"Yes, I am being reckless." The queen felt blessed and followed Emperor Xuande in, lowering her head and remaining silent.
"My dear concubine, who bullied you? You look so sad." Emperor Xuande helped the queen sit down and said with a smile.
"How dare I complain about the emperor? I know that the emperor has many women, and the emperor has always been very kind to me. I shouldn't be jealous, but..." The queen sobbed softly: "But I , I just feel uncomfortable, I feel like I haven’t seen the emperor for a long time.”
"Hey," Emperor Xuande felt soft in his heart when he saw the queen's pitiful appearance, and held her in his arms: "I am not an ordinary man, I belong to the world, and I also want to have you alone, but I am an emperor. , shouldering so many responsibilities, it’s also very helpless!”
"I understand the emperor's difficulties. It's because I love the emperor too much. It's because I'm being petty. In the future, I will think more about the emperor, and I am determined not to do this again." A cold light flashed in the queen's eyes, and she raised her head. At first, he suddenly remembered: "By the way, Your Majesty, I have been feeling a little uncomfortable these past few days. I get tired easily and feel sleepy. I wonder if I am pregnant."
"I actually forgot about this matter," Emperor Xuande frowned and said, "Wen Xi, Doctor Xuan is here!"
…
"Menghui, it would be great if we could always be like this!" Ye Xingyu held Menghui with one hand and lay on a thick cushion. It was soft and very comfortable under him.
The other hand was eating a bright red apple with a little water droplets on it.
Being hugged by Ye Xingyu, Menghui turned around uncomfortably, and was firmly restrained by Ye Xingyu: "Don't move, you have disturbed the ambiguous atmosphere that this prince has finally accumulated."
"Second Prince..." Menghui blinked and looked at Ye Xingyu.
"Okay, okay, it's all up to you." Ye Xingyu couldn't stand Meng Hui's innocent eyes, and took his hand back: "You woman, you really don't know how to be charming."
"Second Prince, when can we go out?"
Ye Xingyu ate the apple and threw Apple Hu out of the window: "I don't know, I actually know that doing this will embarrass my father, and it will also embarrass me to death, but I can only choose one of you two. , you are in the weakest position, I can only choose you, don’t worry, we can go out after the father has calmed down, we have delicious food and drink here, nothing is lacking, it’s just missing A little freedom, and the most important thing is that we can be together. I think this kind of life is quite good."
Meng Hui raised the corner of his mouth slightly and put his hands behind his head: "I feel the same way, but you came to this dirty and smelly place because of me. I feel sorry for you and let your father down. "
"It doesn't matter to me. My father has always been dissatisfied with my demands. No matter what I do, I am never satisfied with him. No matter how strict he is with me, he doesn't care about me at all, and he won't talk about making concessions. He is disappointed. Where does the disappointment come from without hope, right? You also feel sorry for me. I am with you voluntarily. As a prince, I am subject to too many constraints. I have long had enough of the chaos in the palace. Life in a prison, if possible, I really want to live an ordinary life in a place with no disputes, no conspiracies, only peace and tranquility. You also think I am lying when I say this, right?"
Ye Xingyu laughed at himself: "I'm serious. After my sister and I passed away, my father rarely came to see us. No, it can be said that he almost never saw us. We only saw each other on the way back from school. He shows very little care and love for us. My sister and I almost grew up by ourselves, is he considered a father?"
"Second Prince, how can you think so? A father must love his child. No matter what the child has done wrong, he will forgive you. Think about it, has the emperor ever really punished you? Meng replied, thinking about his own life experience, he was also deeply touched: "I even lost my only brother, and my parents don't know what they look like. At least you still have your father and your sister. I am the only one." When you have a child, you don’t even have any relatives around you. Compared with me, you are so much better and so much happier."
"I'm sorry, it's my fault that I reminded you of your sadness. I shouldn't have mentioned this." Ye Xingyu reached out and patted Menghui on the shoulder: "Whether you can find your brother or not, I Always by your side.”
Menghui's body froze slightly, and he turned his head to look at Ye Xingyu. The corner of his lips accidentally touched his lips lightly. His body trembled, his face turned red, and he turned his head to avoid it.
"Menghui, look at me!" Ye Xingyu pulled Menghui to sit up together, holding her head so that her eyes looked directly at him: "Look at me!"
"Second... Second Prince..." Meng Hui's eyes dodged.
"Call me Xingyu, Xingyu..."
"Xingyu..."
"Menghui, tell me, are you willing to be with me? No matter where you are or when, you will never leave me."
Ye Xingyu looked at Meng Hui seriously and said without any impurity in his eyes.
"I..." Meng Hui's eyes flashed slightly, with a somewhat panicked expression: "I... I don't know either. I only know that I am very happy to be with you. Although you may be angry with me sometimes, overall I am with you. Very enjoyable.”
"Then... what about being together for the rest of our lives? Be my wife, Ye Xingyu." Who would have thought that Ye Xingyu, who was always known for his shamelessness, would become nervous when he said this.
"A lifetime?" Meng Hui's heart stirred, and a few blushes appeared on his face.
She had never thought of being together for a lifetime.
Thinking of every little moment of getting along with Ye Xingyu, Meng Hui curled her lips and smiled. She had always thought of something simple, just being happy together.
So he nodded heavily: "I am willing to be with you, no matter where I am, when, as long as... as long as you don't dislike me."
"Okay! With your words, my death is worth it." Ye Xingyu was so excited that he could hardly speak, and held Menghui tightly in his arms.
"There seems to be a strange smell, Xingyu, it's not good!" Menghui suddenly frowned and said anxiously, took Ye Xingyu's hand and stood up.
"What's wrong?" Ye Xingyu sniffed carefully and shook his head in confusion: "What's the smell? Why didn't I smell it?"
"I am an immortal who has practiced magic. Now I have almost the physique of a half-immortal. My sense of smell is much more sensitive than that of a mortal. It smells like something is burning."
Menghui stretched out his hand and swiped in front of his eyes, with a slight flash in his eyes. When he saw clearly what was happening around him, his expression suddenly changed: "Xingyu, there is a huge fire surrounding us. There is fire everywhere, almost The fire is coming to us, we need to get out quickly."
"Fire?" Ye Xingyu murmured, a fierce look flashed in his eyes: "I didn't expect that she was so impatient that she actually thought of burning this prince to death. Menghui, can you rush out?"
"Yes," Menghui nodded firmly, with a somewhat happy expression: "These fires are nothing to me."
…
The fire spread, and the guards on duty in the sky prison were extremely busy. Everyone was busy carrying water to put out the fire.
A guard hurriedly reported to Emperor Xuande, but was blocked outside the "Fengluan Hall" by the queen's people.
"Sister, the second prince is still..."
"The emperor has something important to say to the queen, and has ordered that no one should disturb her. You'd better please go back!" the palace maid said indifferently.
"But..." The guard still refused to give up.
"No but, go back. I will find an appropriate time to tell the emperor. As long as you do your duty to put out the fire and protect the people in the prison, the emperor will reward you later."
The guard opened his mouth and wanted to say something else, but the palace maid had already spoken: "Come here, this guard is speaking out and disobeying orders, drag him down."
Two secret guards appeared from the darkness, covered the guard's mouth, and dragged him down.
The palace maid smiled coldly: "Is the prison on fire? That's exactly what the empress wants. The empress tried every means to deceive the emperor, so why would she let you, a guard, come to disrupt the situation?"
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..." The queen gently shook Emperor Xuande, who was unconscious on the table, and shouted several times in his ear before approaching to make sure that he would not wake up again, and then stood up relaxedly.
"How's it going? Is everything done?" A man's deliberately low voice came from inside.
The queen sneered, stretched out her hand and slapped Emperor Xuande on the face: "Of course it's done. Is there anything else that can't be done with my help? Don't worry, the Tianlao is surrounded by fire. This time, it's... Ye Xingyu can hardly fly even if he has wings, I see how arrogant he is!"
The bead curtain moved slightly, and a middle-aged man came out, hugged the queen from behind, breathed hot air against her ear: "Little bitch, this time we have accomplished a great job, let us celebrate properly! "
The queen tapped the man's chest: "You are so annoying! The emperor is still there, hide the emperor first."
"Kiss me first and then talk..."
…
"Something happened?" Lin Daozhi was coming out of the dormitory where he was resting, ready to search the palace to see if there was anything strange, but he had been uneasy since he left.
It wasn't until he noticed the panic in the direction of the prison cell in the palace that he quickly flew there with his flying sword.
When he saw the Tianlao devoured by fire, what came to Lin Daozhi's mind was Meng Hui's angry little face that was hostile to him.
He immediately rushed in without any hesitation.
He used magic to protect his body but it did not cause any harm. He searched all the cells but could not find the whereabouts of the two of them.
Lin Daozhi only belatedly thought of Menghui's magic.
Although her skills are not as good as mine, she will definitely have no problem escaping.
Why is he confused about this kind of thing
After helping all the prisoners out of the prison, Lin Daozhi turned around and left.
…
Meng Hui didn't let go of Ye Xingyu's hand until he left the palace, with a solemn expression: "Xingyu, where are we going now?"
"Menghui, don't you want to find your brother? I'll go with you." Ye Xingyu took Menghui's hand and put it to his mouth, saying softly.
Menghui glanced at the magnificent palace and asked uncertainly: "Are you really willing to give up the luxurious life in the palace and go out with me?"
"That's still false. What I said always stands true, no matter when and where..."
Meng Hui then replied: "Never be separated!"
The two looked at each other and smiled.
With Menghui's fingers facing each other, Ye Xingyu kissed her forehead gently: "I will go wherever you go until I find your brother, okay?"
"Yes." Menghui nodded and lowered his head in embarrassment.
She knew very well that she had feelings for him in her heart. Although she didn't know what that feeling felt like, she was very happy to be with him, whether it was a quarrel or a sweet moment. of.
"Are you two really in love?" A man's voice interrupted.
Ye Xingyu hurriedly pulled Menghui into his arms, and said coldly to Lin Daozhi who suddenly appeared outside the palace wall: "Lin Daozhi, why are you here?"
"You can be here, so of course I can be here," Lin Daozhi's eyes focused on Ye Xingyu's dreaming body in his arms: "I wonder where you two are going?"
"We can go wherever we want. Do you even have to care about where we go?" Ye Xingyu said angrily, pulling Meng Hui to leave.
After walking only two steps, he noticed their footsteps following closely behind him, and stepped back: "I said Tianshi Lin, if you want to file a complaint, just go ahead and file a complaint. We are not willing to stay with you." Together, we can’t control you wherever you like, but please don’t come with us.”
"You... you go this way, and I will go this way too. Can't I leave if you leave?" Lin Daozhi said shamelessly for the first time.
He was obviously not good at lying, and his face suddenly turned red as he spoke.
"Okay, I'll leave it to you!" Ye Xingyu said helplessly, walking in the opposite direction with Menghui.
He stopped again halfway.
He suddenly turned around and caught Lin Daozhi who was following secretly behind him: "What do you want? You followed us on the order of the queen, right? You can tell her that I never care about the throne. Go up, after leaving this time, I will never come back. Chengxin is also a good boy. It doesn't matter if he takes the throne or I take the throne. I congratulate him, but please don't follow us anymore, okay? "
"I... you..." Lin Daozhi's face turned red and he finally looked at Menghui.
Menghui quietly pulled Ye Xingyu's sleeves and whispered: "Xingyu, I don't think Lin Tianshi is a bad person. If he wants to follow us, let him follow us."
Before Lin Daozhi cast a grateful look, Ye Xingyu started talking again: "Why do you want him to follow? He is a queen, and if we let him follow us, aren't we asking for death?"
"I'm not..." Lin Daozhi was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly explained: "I'm not a spy sent by the Queen. She asked someone to come to me on her own initiative, saying that there was a ghost causing trouble in the palace, and she wanted to kill it. Magic is the duty of our Heavenly Master, so I accepted this task without hesitation. I am not hers, and I have no intention of targeting you. I will not do anything bad to you."
"Xingyu, I think what he said is true. Otherwise, let's... let him come with us?" Menghui said softly.
