Idle King's Blind Concubine

Chapter 30 The Legend of Yinlou (1)
The legendary Eight-tone Tower is located in the Xuanji Pavilion of the imperial capital. It occupies the main pavilion, but because it cannot be opened for a hundred years, the main pavilion has been opened elsewhere.

In the Xuanji Pavilion, an octagonal tower-shaped building with red walls and bright tiles is taller than all the buildings in the Xuanji Pavilion, standing quietly in the white sea of ​​pear blossoms.

When I got closer, I found out that this eight-tone building, which has been sleeping for a hundred years, is actually surrounded by water, and the sea of ​​flowers is separated from the water by the bluestone path.

In the middle of the circular pool with eight strange pillars is the Octave Tower, and there is only an old wooden bridge leading to the Octave Tower.With Rong Huan's support, Rong Qingyu walked towards the wooden bridge that had been gone for a hundred years, listening to the creaking sound of the wooden bridge under his feet, he felt strangely complicated.

As soon as Nangong Xixiang entered Xuanji Pavilion, Chang Xing helped her into the spare wheelchair, and was pushed to follow Rong Qingyu's master and servant.Along the way, he could clearly feel Rong Qingyu's mood swings.

Nangong Xixiang's eyes seemed to be looking at the surrounding scenery, but only he knew that his peripheral vision could not help but linger on the slender beauty in front of him.

Along the way, no one spoke again. The topic he asked in the carriage was interrupted, so he didn't continue.At this moment, the surrounding area was very quiet, only the whine of the wooden bridge under pressure could be heard very clearly in my ears.People can't help worrying, whether the bridge under their feet will rot inside because of the age, and it will break because it can't bear the weight of so many people in the next second.

So after Rong Qingyu's master and servant had completely crossed the bridge, Chang Xing quickly pushed Nangong Xixiang over in fear.

Finally reached the octagonal building, Nangong Xixiang didn't look at the building, but subconsciously looked at Rong Qingyu's expression.She gently pushed Rong Huan's hand away, and walked step by step along the edge of the eight-tone building and around the eight-tone attic.

The slender and fair fingertips lingered past the walls of the Eight Sound Building.In the eight-tone building in front of you, you can vaguely see the positions of the windows and doors from the surface of the building, but these positions seem to have been injected with bronze, making the entire attic seem airtight, and there is not even a gap for prying eyes to find. arrive.

Nangong Xixiang couldn't help being surprised by Rong Qingyu's actions. At that moment, she had the illusion that she was touching a priceless treasure.He looked cautious, as if he was afraid that the stairs he was going down would be broken by himself.Could it be that she came here just to touch this building?

Although there are doubts about this, Nangong Xixiang doesn't think her purpose is just that simple.

"Miss Rong, do you know the allusion to the Eight-tone Building?" After hesitating for a while, Nangong Xixiang broke the silence and spoke softly.

Rong Qingyu paused when he heard Nangong Xixiang's words, but his fingertips still rested on the raised pattern on the surface of the building.

"Ok!"

Rong Huan on the side looked at Nangong Xixiang, then at his own lady, turned his eyes and said, "My maidservant has also heard that this building was the General King of Eastern Chu a hundred years ago, that is, Prince Regent Huan. Created by the king. Later, the husband and wife of Prince Huan and Princess Huan created many new weapons here, quelled the border chaos, and later signed a peace treaty with the other three countries. Finally, they retired, and King Huan and Princess Huan withdrew Chaotang, I have gone to live the life of idle clouds and wild cranes. The Eight-tone Building has been closed since then, and it has been closed for ten years! Unexpectedly, ten years later, Princess Huan suddenly came back alone, and opened the Eight-tone Building that had been dusty for ten years. Later, in this building, thousands of miles away, they planned to destroy the Xijin Kingdom, which was on a par with Eastern Chu at that time. Since then, there are only three kingdoms in the Canglan Continent, including the South, the North, and the East. The power of our Eastern Chu is the most powerful. Because of that battle, the foundation of Eastern Chu is stable and prosperous day by day, and today it is the pinnacle of the most prosperous age in a hundred years! It is said that the King Huan of the year was won by his brother Xi It's a pity that Emperor Jin died young because of the conspiracy... Princess Huan was heartbroken, and she disappeared after avenging him. It is said that she died for love. Since then, the eight-tone building has never been opened again. No. Rumor has it that only the husband and wife know how to open the Eight-tone Tower!"

This story is of course familiar to Nangong Xixiang, so when Rong Huan said this, he didn't pay much attention to it.He just paid attention to Rong Qingyu's expression, but saw that her face was very pale, as if she was very tired.

At that moment, he couldn't help feeling as if Rong Huan was talking about her past... Then he remembered that Princess Huan a hundred years ago was the predecessor of the Rong family.

The ghost before his junior sister Sikong Yinyue was the biological mother of Princess Huan.

Speaking of which, the origin is quite deep.

However, in his opinion, she doesn't seem to be the kind of person who is sad about spring and autumn. Why does her reaction at this time seem to be unusual?

I don't know why, seeing her pale face, his heart couldn't help but twitch, obviously he has been looking at this building for more than ten years.But when I looked at this building today, I couldn't help feeling an inexplicable sadness overflowing my heart.

The sadness kept welling up in his heart, which made his breathing a little difficult, and he couldn't help but coughed lightly.

"My lord, are you alright?" Chang Xing at the side saw him and hurried to pat him on the back.

Nangong Xixiang coughed twice before waving his hands, but his face turned pale.

Rong Qingyu was in a trance when he heard Nangong Xixiang's weak cough.Then he came back to his senses, the hand holding the flowerpot in his hand tightened slightly, and then loosened again.After a pause, he opened his mouth and said, "Prince Xian, do you want to open this building to have a look?"

Nangong Xixiang raised her head to look at Rong Qingyu in surprise when she heard the words, but couldn't catch her expression hidden behind the blindfold.Why does he hear her tone, it seems that she has a way to open this building?

"Miss Rong has a way to open this building?" Nangong Xixiang couldn't help asking, but she really wanted to get an affirmative answer from the bottom of her heart.

"If... there is one person who is willing to help, there should be no problem!" Rong Qingyu said, the words had already lived up to expectations.

When Nangong Xixiang heard this, he almost stood up from the wheelchair in excitement, and hurriedly asked: "Who is Miss Rong talking about?"

Rong Qingyu could hear the urgency in Nangong Xixiang's tone, but hesitated a little before speaking: "Xuanyin's dark guard commander, Beichen Liuting!"
