Chapter 198 Self-defeating
The life in the palace is leisurely and carefree. Apart from being taught by the nanny, the beautiful girls stay in their own small courtyards.

On weekdays, the small courtyard where Xiao Muyan lives is exceptionally quiet. Because of the lesson from last time, Wei Linglong spends her days in the room thinking about how to attract the emperor's attention and relieve the grievances from last time.Xiao Muyan finished his lunch and was about to enter the Blue Water Soul to practice, when footsteps came from far and near in the courtyard.

Xiao Muyan glanced out, Eunuch Li led a young eunuch standing in the yard, and shouted loudly towards Xiao Muyan's room: "Is Miss Xiao Xiu in the room?"

Wei Linglong heard the commotion, rushed to the courtyard one step ahead, gave a blessing to Eunuch Li, and asked with a smile, "What's the matter with Eunuch Li coming to us?"

Eunuch Li knew that Wei Linglong was Concubine Rong's cousin, and also a young lady of the Wei family, so his tone was a bit more polite, and he said with a smile: "Return to Young Master Wei, this servant has come to convey the emperor's will to Xiao Xiunu."

"The emperor's will?" Wei Linglong frowned slightly, and muttered in her heart, could it be that the emperor finally couldn't hold back and wanted to summon Xiao Muyan?What if Xiao Muyan was favored first and got ahead of him?

While talking, Xiao Muyan came out of the room with a leisurely expression, walked up to Eunuch Li and the others, and said indifferently, "What's the matter with Eunuch Li?"

Eunuch Li cleared his voice, and said solemnly: "Xiao Xiunv, the emperor has ordered you to go to the Imperial Garden to meet me, and I have something important to tell you, so hurry up and come with the Sa family."

When Wei Linglong heard this, her brows frowned a little deeper, she kept thinking, and she guessed it, the emperor really wanted to summon her, and he summoned her in the imperial garden!
There was no disturbance on Xiao Muyan's face, and he said casually as usual: "Please trouble Eunuch Li to lead the way."

"Please."

After all, Eunuch Li led the way, Xiao Muyan followed behind, and the group disappeared into the courtyard very quickly.Wei Linglong stood where she was, her eyes staring resentfully at the slender figure who was going away.

She is not reconciled, if Xiao Muyan really flies on a branch one day, and is superior to her, she will definitely not be able to bear a good-for-nothing idiot who is not as powerful as hers to climb on top of her head. The good cousin Xiao Muzi knew about it, she would definitely laugh for three days and three nights, just thinking about it would make her heart palpitate.

After thinking about it, Wei Linglong made up her mind. Originally, she was thinking about the chance to see the emperor again day and night. Now that this opportunity has come, she must not let it go. If she grasped it well, she might be able to step on Xiao Mu. Smoke a foot.

Wei Linglong went back to the house very quickly, changed into an extremely gorgeous dress, and tidied her hair a little, before running towards the imperial garden.

Xiao Muyan followed Eunuch Li to the Imperial Garden, and walked towards the only gazebo in the garden.Looking up, this gazebo is really lively, not only Gou Wuxie is sitting in the center of the pavilion, on one side is Jin Fei who is dressed in brocade clothes, and on the other side are Zhong Hanli, Gou Yichen, Wei Jibai, etc. Several people.

Xiao Muyan walked behind Eunuch Li without haste, Eunuch Li took a step forward, bowed respectfully and said: "Your Majesty, Xiao Xiunv has already arrived."

Gou Wuxie followed Eunuch Li's voice, looked behind him, and saw a slim and graceful figure in his eyes, he couldn't help but be taken aback, he had seen countless beauties, but the face of the person in front of him was The appearance of the country and the city that has never been seen before.The plain clothes were extremely ordinary, but they made her skin look like snow in winter.

The beauty is so beautiful that you can't pick out a single flaw, just like the daughter of the Nine Immortals descending to earth in the myth, it makes people's hearts flutter.It's just that his temperament is as cold as ice, and his whole body exudes a powerful aura that strangers should not get close to.

Gou Wuxie carried an oppressive kingly air all over his body, with moody temperament, even the crown prince Gou Yichen was a bit jealous, and asked in a superior tone: "Are you General Xiao's daughter-in-law Xiao Muyan? "

Xiao Muyan looked indifferent, without any fear of Gou Wuxie's majesty, nodded and said: "Exactly."

Gou Wuxie was taken aback for a moment, this Xiao Muyan was different from the rumors. Although I heard that the first daughter of the Xiao Mansion had a peerless face, but I also heard that she was timid and shy, inferior and introverted. He is a complete useless without any spiritual power, otherwise he would not have agreed to the prince's cancellation of his engagement with her, and instead got engaged to the second lady of the Xiao Mansion.

Now it seems that the rumors are almost unbelievable, but this Xiao Muyan has a bit of a distinctive style, coupled with this elegant and peerless temperament, it is really unforgettable.

Gou Wuxie felt annoyed in his heart, it's a pity, it's a pity, if he knew earlier, he shouldn't have agreed to that request so easily, this stunning beauty can only be admired.

Concubine Jin sat on one side, squinting at the dazed Gou Wuxie, she saw what Gou Wuxie was thinking, but she breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it was done, otherwise not only the prince, but even The emperor's soul would probably be seduced by this little fox, such a person would be a great disaster in the palace.

She picked up the veil to cover her lips, and reminded: "Your Majesty..."

Gou Wuxie returned to his senses, and said seriously: "I called you here today not only to see you, General Xiao is so righteous, he has devoted himself to me for Gou Chen, and he is also loyal to me. He is really a minister..."

Xiao Muyan looked expressionlessly at Gou Wuxie who was eloquent, and didn't listen to a few words. He looked at Concubine Jin with the jade ring and the crown prince Gou Yichen standing beside him calmly. The costume is really good, I really want to say, Your Majesty, the green hat on your head is really big.

After laying the groundwork, Gou Wuxie said: "Nowadays, the ferocious beasts in the dark forest are causing chaos, disturbing the people, making people's lives miserable, and destroying the luck of my Gouchen country. Only by offering sacrifices to the purest girl in the world can the spirit of the Phoenix be suppressed."

Having said that, Gou Wuxie stopped and said, "National Teacher?"

Zhong Hanli took a step forward, and continued with a solemn expression: "Xiao Muyan, the old minister watches the stars at night and divination with tortoises, which matches your birth date. You are the most suitable candidate for sacrifice. If you can sacrifice yourself to the Phoenix Spirit, to suppress the beast and keep one side peaceful is also for the prosperity of the country of Gochen, for the peace of the people, for the glory of the Xiao family, and it will go down in history forever. I believe that the people of Gochen will be grateful for your sacrifice."

The corners of Xiao Muyan's lips twitched slightly, and a big hat was buttoned down. If she didn't go, she would be a sinner.This Zhong Hanli, as the national teacher of the current dynasty, really can talk nonsense about anything, and can play up mysteries casually, this national teacher is really easy to be.
