"Xingyu, I think what he said is true. Otherwise, let him come with us?" Menghui said softly.
Ye Xingyu snorted coldly: "Who knows if he is acting to deceive us into trusting us, and finally kills us all when we completely trust him. It is really a good strategy to eradicate the weeds!"
"I'm not!" Lin Daozhi explained hurriedly, looking at Menghui with an apologetic look: "I won't deal with you. The last time I acted rashly, I was sorry for the girl Menghui and caused her daughter to die. Being discovered led to her being imprisoned in the heavenly prison by the emperor, and the second prince did not hesitate to risk his own life to rob the prison, because a moment of suspicion caused such a big mistake, it is all my fault, and I hope I can do something to make up for you."
"Haha... what you said is better than what you sang." Ye Xingyu said with a smile: "You're making up for it, there's really no need. Who knows if you will bite us back and frame us in a place of eternal destruction? We can't afford it. Taking this risk, Tianshi Lin, you'd better go back to the queen. Maybe she will give you a position as the supreme national preceptor because of your meritorious service. That is equivalent to the status of the prime minister. In the future, You have a bright future, so it’s not like you wasted your efforts in vain.”
"Xingyu, I beg you, let him come with us. He is not a bad person, really, I can guarantee it." Menghui raised his hand and said.
Ye Xingyu glanced at Menghui with a smile but not a smile: "When did you become so familiar with Lin Tianshi? Have you always helped him speak?"
"I..." Meng Hui glanced at Lin Daozhi and was speechless.
She didn't know why, but she just felt that Lin Daozhi would not be a bad person, otherwise he would not risk going to the cell to see her.
"The second prince doesn't want to come with me, so I'll just leave. I hope you two take care and don't regret it."
Lin Daozhi's eyes dimmed, he clasped his fists, said disappointedly, turned around and walked away.
"Hey..." Meng Hui shouted and glared at Ye Xingyu with some dissatisfaction: "Why are you like this?"
"Wait a minute! Who said we won't let you come with us? Wouldn't it be profitable for us to invite you, an omnipotent heavenly master? How can I, the prince, let go of such a cheap thing?" Ye Xingyu smiled and patted his lips. Meng Hui turned his head and said, "Is this okay? Is it what you want?"
Menghui pursed his lips and smiled.
Lin Daozhi's face was filled with joy, he smiled, nodded and said, "Thank you, Second Prince, for your understanding of righteousness. If you have anything to do with Daozhi in the future, please feel free to tell me."
"Can you do everything?"
"Yes, as long as Tao can do it."
"Of course there will be, there are many more!" Ye Xingyu smiled lazily: "I hope you don't regret your decision next."
Because this prince uses you as a laborer.
Who told you to watch Meng Hui all the time and attract her attention
This wife-stealing enemy is a big enemy. This Lin Daozhi also looks a bit like him. Although he is not as handsome as him, he and Meng Hui both know spells and have the same abilities. They definitely have more topics in common. Wouldn’t they be a formidable enemy?
Besides, Meng Hui seems to have a crush on him, but no, we must find a way to drive him away.
Watching Lin Daozhi talking and laughing brought me back to sleep. It was a smile I had never seen with him before.
Ye Xingyu felt sour in his heart.
A heavy cough interrupted the conversation and laughter between the two.
"I won't regret it." Lin Daoyi was stunned and smiled: "Can I ask Menghui a question?"
"No!" Ye Xingyu raised his eyebrows and said: "If you want to follow us, you have to make an agreement. First, there are differences between men and women. You can't take the initiative to talk to Meng Hui. Second, you have to do whatever we ask you to do, and you are not allowed to resist. , Third, if there is danger, you should be the first to rush forward, Fourth, I haven’t thought of the fourth yet, I will tell you when I think of it.”
"Xingyu..." Meng Hui said dissatisfied: "How can you ask Lin Tianshi like this? He..."
Lin Daozhi interrupted her and said: "Menghui, thank you for speaking for me. I agree. After all, I was the one who was rude. Not to mention these conditions, the second prince is extremely difficult. I also agree with him who has gone up mountains of swords and seas of fire." , I cannot absolve myself of the blame for bringing you to this end, I have committed a heinous crime, and I just want to make up for my mistakes."
Ye Xingyu pursed his lips and smiled, and said lazily: "Don't say that, we are not giving you a chance to atone for your sins. This prince is not a good person. Menghui, let's go!"
"Master Lin Tianshi, the second prince... he's like this, don't mind it too much!" Meng Hui raised his head and looked at Lin Daozhi, a little worried.
After this period of getting along, she had a pretty good idea of Ye Xingyu's character.
Because Lin Daozhi once worked with the queen, it is natural for him to be hostile to him.
Lin Daozhi shook his head: "I won't mind. This is all what I should bear. Who made me suffer the consequences and do such a wrong thing, causing you to reach the point where you have nowhere to go now? Meng Hui, I... am Doesn’t he look particularly like someone you’ve known before?”
Meng Hui was stunned for a moment and smiled faintly: "I don't know either. I only know my brother when he was a child. After so many years, I don't know what he looks like now and whether he can still recognize me. I ask you just with hope. I think I should have met you before, but I can't remember it at all. I was thinking that if you have seen me before and can recognize me, maybe you can Will I know my brother's whereabouts, and I can find him, or..."
"I'm sorry to disappoint you. I don't know you."
Menghui lowered his head, covering up his disappointed look: "It doesn't matter! In fact, I should think about it. My brother's life and death are unknown. Everyone says he is dead. I don't believe that my brother must still be alive. I am too persistent. Obviously I know there is little hope, but I still want to give it a try.”
Lin Daozhi's heart softened, and he felt even more sorry for this little girl.
He couldn't help but comfort him: "I believe you will be able to find your brother."
"Menghui, why are you still there? Why haven't you followed?" Ye Xingyu stopped in front and shouted.
"Oh, we'll be here soon!" Meng responded, turning back to Lin Daozhi: "Lin Tianshi, let's leave quickly. If it's later, the emperor might send someone to chase us."
"Okay, let's go!"
Taking advantage of the dark moonlight, after Ye Xingyu and the others left the city, they found a relatively remote village to rest for the night.
…
In the brightly lit bedroom, after the imperial doctor went out, Jun Yifan was the first to rush in, knelt in front of Emperor Wu's window, and shouted softly: "Father!"
Emperor Wu looked a little unhappy, but he was in a good mood. There was a beautiful woman sitting beside his bed. When he saw Jun Yifan coming in, he smiled with relief: "Yifan, don't worry, your father is fine. , he just has a little bit of cold, and he will be fine after a few days of training."
Emperor Wu also nodded and said: "Yes, I have always been in good health. Yifan, I want to tell you something."
"Father..." Jun Yifan's expression moved slightly and he looked at the woman, the current queen and the former noble concubine.
The woman smiled at him.
She is really a very beautiful woman, no wonder her father was so fascinated by her.
Jun Yifan turned his eyes away abruptly. This woman was his biological mother, and she was also the person he least wanted to face.
"You are right, I want to make you the crown prince!" Emperor Wu said seriously every word.
"Father, this..." Jun Yifan was shocked. Although he knew that such a day would come, but when it really came, he felt like he wanted to escape.
In the past, he was determined to win the crown prince position because his mother's greatest wish was for him to rule the world. However, his mother and queen were no longer here, and his life experience had also undergone a complicated change.
From his mother to his last biological mother... As an emperor, his father could not even win the heart of his most beloved person. Even though he was the supreme king in the world, looking down on all the people and gaining the supreme status, he also lost a lot at the same time.
For many things, if you lose something, you must gain something, and if you gain something, you must lose something. This is the truth.
The position of prince has become indifferent to him. Now he just wants to live an ordinary life and be with his beloved.
If his beloved is willing, he would rather live in seclusion with her and never be involved in the disputes in the court again.
Emperor Wu smiled and said: "Don't be surprised. You know that what I have been looking forward to the most is you. Now that my health is getting worse and worse, I have to consider the most suitable candidate for this country and all the people in the world. You have the ability. You are wise, and I trust you the most."
"Father, you...will get better." Jun Yifan's throat interfered, and it took him a long time to say this.
"What I like the most is you. You are a dragon among people. You are much better than I was back then. I feel ashamed compared to you. Don't panic. I just told you in advance today that I will wait a few days." Only then will we tell the world.”
"Father, I can promise my father!" Jun Yifan raised his head, as if he had made up his mind: "But can my father agree to my only request?"
"What's the request? Tell me."
Jun Yifan stood up and whispered in Emperor Wu's ear. A smile appeared on Emperor Wu's lips: "I see, I promise you."
"Thank you, father!" Jun Yifan couldn't help but be happy and kowtowed to the ground.
"You kid, get up quickly." The woman said with a smile.
Emperor Wu and the woman looked at each other, and both smiled meaningfully. Emperor Wu coughed and said, "Go out and tell the other brothers to let them go back."
"Yes, I'm leaving!" Jun Yifan raised his eyes to look at the woman, opened his mouth, wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't speak, so he stood up and left.
"Ying'er..." Emperor Wu held the woman's hand tightly and couldn't help coughing heavily.
"Your Majesty, my concubine is here, she is here." The woman patted Emperor Wu on the back and said softly, "Don't be too excited. When you are well, it will not be too late to talk about the children!"
"I may not be able to stay for a long time. I feel that my body can't support it for much longer. Maybe I will pass away one day. What I like most now is Yifan's child. I am also relieved about his trust. The matter of establishing a prince is very important. Let me confirm it while I can still move, so as to prevent other children from having undue thoughts in their hearts. Si'er, that child, is a blundering and competitive person. If he really does something evil, , then we can’t keep him, Ying’er, go and help me draft an imperial edict and a letter.”
"good."
…
The blue sky was spotless after being washed by the rain. A red glow appeared in the east, dyeing the sky red. A few soft cotton-like white clouds were painted with charming orange-red by the glow and were rimmed with gold. Exquisitely beautiful, like an unrolled fiery plantain.
A thinly dressed woman wearing only a middle coat and with disheveled hair was lying alone on the side of the road, motionless. Her loose hair covered her face and her face could not be seen clearly.
There are more and more pedestrians on the road, and everyone passing by comes to watch.
"Look, whose girl is that? Why is she lying on the ground?"
"Who knows, could he be dead?"
"It's hard to say, maybe he committed suicide because he was ruined by someone, right?"
"Don't talk nonsense. Don't ruin the reputation of an innocent woman."
…
"What happened?" A young man squeezed through the crowd and stepped forward and asked.
"A girl has fainted." When they saw someone was in charge, everyone stepped aside and let him in.
The man approached the unconscious woman in the middle of the road, pushed her hair away, saw her face clearly, and was shocked.
He hurriedly shouted to the back: "Brothers, it's the girl who saved us."
As soon as the man's voice fell, five other men rushed over and drove everyone away with their swords.
"Whatever you are looking at, get out of here!"
Someone recognized the identities of the Six Black Wind Heroes and exclaimed: "Those are the Six Black Wind Heroes who do all kinds of evil. They specialize in bullying the weak and embezzling other people's money. Everyone, please leave!"
After shouting, everyone was startled and ran away in all directions.
After a while, all the people watching had left.
The roads are also wider.
The young man was Black Wind, the youngest of the Six Black Wind Heroes. He probed the woman's nose and shouted in surprise: "Brothers, this girl is still alive. We can't just die without saving her."
"Okay." Black Wind brothers said in unison, Black Bear: "Black Wind, come and carry the girl on your back, we have to send her to the hospital as soon as possible."
A carriage passed by slowly, making a slight noise.
"Xiao Mo, why is it so busy outside?" Jun Yifan asked casually.
"Back to my lord, a girl had an accident in the middle of the road. Several men carried her away. She is fine now." Xiao Mo took a look and felt that the back of the woman being carried by the young man was very familiar. , I seem to have seen it somewhere.
"Ignore it, just go on your way." Jun Yifan said. Suddenly the wind blew open the car curtain, and the woman's face came into view. Jun Yifan's expression suddenly changed.
He shouted hurriedly: "Xiao Mo, stop the car!"
The carriage stopped and Jun Yifan got out of the car and attacked the six people with a folding fan. As soon as the folding fan came out, several silver needles stabbed the six people at once.
The six people did not expect to be suddenly attacked on the street, so they used martial arts to quickly escape.
Because Heifeng was carrying a person on his back, his body was not very flexible. His arm was hit by a silver needle that flew from a folding fan. His arm hurt. Because he could not bear the weight of the woman, the woman on his back flew straight away.
Jun Yifan's lips curled up slightly, and he turned around to catch the woman, held her in his arms, and flew into the carriage through the window: "Xiao Mo, hurry back to the palace as soon as possible!"
Lowering his head and glancing at the woman in his arms, Jun Yifan raised a gentle smile on his lips.
"Yes!" Xiao Mo responded, flicking his horse's whip, and the carriage started running quickly.
"Sixth brother, are you okay?" Black Bear's other brothers came over and asked.
Heifeng smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I failed to protect the girl who was kind to us. I don't know who the man in white is, but he is so arrogant."
"That's the carriage in Prince Xuan's Mansion. I saw their carriage logo. The man in white has very high martial arts skills. Maybe he is the Prince Xuan who has genius and wisdom and has a high reputation among the people of Li Kingdom. Your Highness."
One of the scholarly men said, sighing thoughtfully: "If it is really him, that girl may be really in danger."
"Then what should we do? We in the world of martial arts believe in repaying kindness. Even if people misunderstand us and say bad things about us, we can't just sit idly by and do nothing."
"That's right, that's right, no matter whether Prince Xuan's Mansion is a dragon's pond or a tiger's den, we must rescue that kind-hearted girl."
"Okay, then let's take action tonight. Then we will break into Prince Xuan's Mansion and rescue the girl."
…
After returning to the mansion, Jun Yifan placed the woman in his bedroom. Except for going to court, he stayed with her the rest of the time, feeding her food and medicine, and doing everything himself.
Jun Yifan gently stroked the woman's face from top to bottom, and a bright smile appeared on his lips: "Xingtong, you are finally in my hands. You and I are so destined, I must seize the opportunity to marry you this time. Wife, my father has already promised me that we will become husband and wife soon. I just need to report to your father, and we will be able to achieve success. Our two countries can also maintain friendly exchanges between the two countries because of our marriage. Are you happy to help make progress?"
"Oh, by the way, you are a little weak for the time being, but the imperial doctor said you are fine. As long as you recuperate for a few days and replenish your body, you will fully recover."
"Bang bang bang" a knock on the door came, Jun Yifan frowned slightly: "What's the matter?"
"My lord, there is a woman in white who says she knows the prince and wants to meet him. She says she is his old friend." The boy outside the door replied.
"I have never known a woman in white, let her leave!" Jun Yifan said without thinking.
"Yes." The boy was also a little puzzled. If he had known better, he would not have come to report to the prince.
Nowadays, there are always some women who come to the palace to hook up with them because of their beauty, hoping to have a relationship.
In front of Prince Xuan's Mansion, a woman in white clothes covered with a white gauze and a girl dressed as a maid holding a bundle were waiting anxiously, looking around.
When the boy came out, he quickly asked: "Brother, can we go in?"
The boy looked at the two of them with disdain and said coldly: "Stop having that sweet dream of flying up a branch and turning into a phoenix. We have seen many scammers like you. It is your greatest luck to be able to report them." It’s all for nothing. The prince won’t see you. You better be obedient and leave quickly, lest the prince get angry. Then you won’t be able to leave even if you want to.”
The woman shook her head hurriedly: "We are not lying, what we said is true."
"My father-in-law... the young lady knows the prince. She is a very good confidante of the prince. The prince has visited the young lady in Nanjiang many times and sent people to deliver gifts. You must have not sent the message. If the prince Knowing that the young lady is coming, she will definitely not miss her." The maid said anxiously, and in desperation, she grabbed the servant's sleeve to prevent him from leaving.
"How did you become a servant? Let's go, let's go," the young man pushed the maid away angrily and said to the other concierges: "Kick them out quickly, so as not to be an eyesore in Prince Xuan's Mansion."
"You can't do this..." They didn't stop until they were driven to another street.
Feng Ya stamped her feet angrily: "Princess, they have gone too far. Why do they think we are liars?"
"I have thought of this situation for a long time, but the moment I was kicked out, I wanted to laugh so much and felt so ridiculous. He knew it was me, but he didn't want to see me. My heart hurt so much, you know "?" Ye Piaoxue smiled bitterly and said: "Even so, I still want to hear his explanation. Even if the answer is an answer that makes me sad, I am willing to see him again and listen to what he has to say."
"Miss, you came all the way to the capital of Li Kingdom to find His Highness Prince Xuan, but he doesn't care about you at all. If the Emperor knows that we escaped this time, he may punish us when we return. The Prince doesn't want to see us. , let’s go back.” Feng Ya said worriedly.
Ye Piaoxue shook his head: "I will never go back if I can't see his people. How could he throw me away irresponsibly and ignore me after provoking me? He said he liked me, and he always treated me I will never forget it.”
"But... princess, that's not you..." Feng Ya said softly.
With a crisp "pop" sound, Ye Piaoxue went up and slapped Feng Ya.
Feng Ya touched her red and swollen face and looked at Ye Piaoxue in disbelief, as if she didn't believe that the princess who had always been like a sister to her would treat her like this.
"Don't be surprised. You have been following me for five or six years. You have to remember clearly what should be said and what should not be said. Do you still remember why I named you Feng Ya?" Ye Piaoxue took back her hand, He said coldly.
"I don't know, Feng Ya, but Feng Ya was wrong. She won't talk nonsense like this in the future." Feng Ya lowered her head and whispered.
I sighed inwardly.
The eldest princess of Qingyang, Ye Xingtong, has always been a thorn in the princess's heart. As long as she mentions what happened between her and Prince Xuan, the princess will get upset and even lose her mind.
Ever since the first time she saw Prince Xuan that year, the princess had been obsessed with him. When she learned that he thought she was Ye Xingtong, she was panicked and admitted the affair between Ye Xingtong and him.
Prince Xuan was indeed very kind to the princess. He would send different gifts to the princess every year and write letters. The two of them had constant exchanges, which was very sweet.
