Chapter 199
No matter whether it is the Gouchen country or the Xiao Mansion, Xiao Muyan has never taken it seriously, even if the Gouchen country is really destroyed by a fierce beast, it has nothing to do with her.
What's more, how many of these people are really for the sake of Chen Guo?However, this ulterior motive actually fulfilled her wish, Xiao Muyan said calmly, "Yes, I'll go."
As soon as these words came out, several people in the gazebo were stunned for a moment, with different expressions. They did not expect Xiao Muyan to agree so readily, becoming a sacrificial offering in the dark forest, after all, is a thing that never comes back. Wouldn't it be so straightforward to agree to no one?
However, Xiao Muyan's expression was so flat that it didn't seem to be her own business. Because she knew that she couldn't change anything, she gave up struggling, but she knew the times.
With a "bang", a person fell out of the garden of the imperial garden, wearing a seemingly gorgeous dress, because it was squatted in it for a long time, it was stained with a lot of soil, and the corners of the skirt were hooked by messy flower branches, torn. There was a hole.
Eunuch Li hastily shouted: "Guard! Someone wants to assassinate the emperor!"
Several guards took a quick step forward and stopped in front of Gou Wuxie, all eyes were on the half-lying person on the ground.
With her head lowered and her body trembling, she struggled to get up from the ground, her voice also revealed fear, and she saluted eagerly: "The beautiful girl Wei Linglong has seen the emperor."
After all, he slowly raised his head, his bun was a little messy, with a few green leaves remaining, and he stood nervously in front of the gazebo.She originally wanted to follow Xiao Muyan and pretend to meet the emperor by chance, but when she saw the battle here just now, she was afraid that it would not be that simple, so she quietly hid in the flowerbed half the height of a person. It's because my legs are numb. I wanted to move around, but I accidentally fell out.
Wei Linglong's fingers are clenched into fists in her sleeves, why does she look so downcast every time she sees the emperor!It's all Xiao Muyan's fault!But this Xiao Muyan will soon become Phoenix's sacrifice, and I am afraid that he will not have many days to live.
Gou Wuxie pondered for a while, and thought for a while. Who is this Wei Linglong? He seems to have heard of it before, but also seems to have never heard of it. "Wei Linglong?"
Wei Linglong nodded, lowered her eyes, "I have seen the emperor in Huxin Lake."
Lake in the middle of the lake?Wei Linglong?Gou Wuxie caught a glimpse of a few green leaves on her hair, and the luster in her eyes suddenly sank, she was the beautiful girl who secretly met with the prince in Huxin Lake!
Gou Wuxie asked impatiently, "What are you doing here?"
"Slave..." Wei Linglong said with faltering eyes, "Slave is here to visit the Royal Garden..."
Gou Wuxie snorted coldly: "The last time I went to the lake, this time I came to the Imperial Garden again? Every time I bump into it, what a coincidence."
Eunuch Li was originally in charge of Xiunv's affairs. Hearing Gou Wuxie's tone, he panicked, and hurriedly knelt on the ground to plead guilty: "Your Majesty, it's because the slaves are ineffective in supervising that Wei Xiunv is allowed to wander around. Forgive me." The emperor is clean."
Gou Wuxie ignored Eunuch Li who was kneeling by the side, and asked in a deep voice: "National Teacher, didn't I hear you say last time that the sacrificial girl in the dark forest needs to be accompanied by ten girls of the same age as sacrifices?" ?”
Zhong Hanli took a step forward and said respectfully: "Reporting to the emperor, it is true that the phoenix is an extremely powerful beast. I am afraid that only one girl sacrificed can not suppress the phoenix in the dark forest, so it is necessary to sacrifice ten girls at the same time." .”
Gou Wuxie nodded, looked thoughtfully at Wei Linglong on the ground, and said without hesitation: "I see that Wei Linglong is the right candidate, and we can contribute together."
Wei Linglong's complexion changed, the surprised expression on her face became distorted, and she stared at the emperor in disbelief. If she heard correctly, the emperor made her a sacrifice to the Phoenix just like Xiao Muyan? !
She is the most favored daughter of the Wei family, but she is only in her teens, so she can't go to die in vain, she said with a slight cry: "Your Majesty, the servants are not going, and the servants are not willing to be sacrifices!"
"Wei Linglong, the emperor asked you to sacrifice the phoenix. It is a gift to you, and also a gift to the Wei family. How can you refuse?" Breaking away from Wei Linglong, it's almost a no-brainer right now.
With tears streaming down her face, Wei Linglong knelt on the ground and shouted: "Your Highness, you can't force me not to go! This servant is absolutely unwilling to be a sacrifice, and is willing to serve the emperor for the rest of his life."
Gou Wuxie was not that interested in listening to Wei Linglong's pleading, not to mention seeing the green leaves on her head, she felt dazzling, and couldn't help but waved his sleeves, "Eunuch Li, take these two back, let them go back and talk to their family. Farewell, leave in three days."
Eunuch Li immediately got up from the ground, and quickly ordered several people to pull Wei Linglong up from the ground and drag him away. When he looked up, Xiao Muyan had already taken a step ahead and left leisurely.
Xiao Muyan packed up her bag and left the palace when she returned home. She didn't bring many things with her, only one bag could hold everything.After leaving the palace gate, a carriage stopped not far away, and there was a person standing beside the carriage.
Tall and tall, with picturesque eyebrows, lowered eyes, a pair of dark eyes smudged with a trace of indifference.Hearing the sound of footsteps from far to near, he raised his eyes, a faint smile appeared in his cold eyes, and a slender figure in plain clothes was reflected in his eyes.
Xiao Muyan was not surprised to see Meng Lilun, and smiled faintly, "Let's go."
"Take you home." Meng Lilun took the burden from Xiao Muyan's hand.
The carriage returned to Xiao's mansion smoothly all the way, Xiao Muyan got off the car and returned to Lanyuan alone, Gu Manshi had already received the news from Xiao Tianyi, and was fidgeting in Lanyuan at this time.
Lu Luo poured a cup of tea and handed it over, she couldn't stop comforting her: "Ma'am, don't worry, Miss is probably on her way back now, she will definitely have an idea."
Gu Manshi had a sad expression on her face, and she was not in the mood to drink tea, she just put the tea down again, "This is the emperor's order, how could Yan'er go against the imperial order?"
"Why not?" A light voice sounded at the door, and Xiao Muyan walked in unhurriedly.
"It's the young lady who's back." Lu Luo happily took the burden, and quickly poured her a glass of water.
Gu Manshi held Xiao Muyan's cold fingers, "Yan'er, you are finally back. I heard the master said that the emperor ordered you to be sacrificed to the beasts in the dark forest. Isn't that... Would not it be……"
Her body trembled, and her fingers couldn't stop clenching, "Yan'er, run away, mother has some dowry here, you can go as far as you can with the green radishes and dowry, so that they can't find you!"
Xiao Muyan patted the back of Gu Manshi's hand comfortingly, "Mother, don't worry, I'm not going anywhere."
