Chapter 257

"Mother!"


A sweet cry rushed over, awakening Xue Yi who was immersed in memories, giggling buried in her arms, "Mother, Daddy taught Ah Li to ride a horse, and Daddy also said that Ah Li will definitely surpass all others in the future." Grassland girl!"


Xue Yi smiled and pinched Mo Li's nose: "Girls, you must know how to be reserved and humble."


"Oh my mother, are you annoying? You've been nagging me all day, and Ah Li is very depressed after listening to it."


The beautiful big eyes are like stars in the sky, blinking and blinking, and the lips are playfully pouted, and the watery snow-white skin seems to drip water.


"A Li! Don't be rude to your mother!"


A serious voice came from behind.


"Hmph! Daddy will help mother, and doesn't love Ah Li!"


Mo Li raised his mouth, turned his eyes, and saw a red horse galloping in the distance, shouting and jumping happily: "Ah, here comes the godmother!"


"Mother! Mother!"


Xue Yi looked around and saw Xiao Li'er coming galloping on a horse.


------------------


Xue Yi happily pulled Xiao Li'er, and the two of them looked at each other affectionately, Shangguan Fenglan had already gone to practice horseback riding and hunting while holding Xiao Moli in his arms.


Xiao Li'er smiled, and sat down on the vast grassland together with her snow clothes.


Facing the wind, time has passed, but the years have not left any traces on their faces.


"Why did you come to the grassland at this time?"


Xueyi asked with a smile.


Xiao Li'er patted her forehead, "It's not my bastard who has to go back to Dongling's lair arguing, saying that when he grows up, he will do nothing and become a bandit. I'm so angry!"


Xue Yi laughed uncontrollably, "Very good, very good."


Xiao Li'er looked sideways in surprise: "Xue Yi, you, since when did you like to make troubles, you must have learned from Lao Ba, and you have been taught badly!"


Xue Yi couldn't stop laughing, "Your family Shisan was originally a bandit, and the son inherited his father's business, it should, it should."


"Okay, I won't forgive you first!"


Cheerful laughter came from the grassland, and the two wrestled together.


After a while, the two lay on the soft grass, smelling the simple breeze on the grassland, as if all the troubles could be left behind.


"Since I've been to this grassland, I don't know why you like it so much. It's such a beautiful place."


The two turned their faces and met each other with a smile.


Gradually, Xiao Li'er suddenly became quiet, her eyes flickered, Xue Yi shoved her, "What's the matter, let's talk."


"Earlier, I saw Chonglian."


Xiao Li'er said in a low voice.


Xue Yi couldn't help being startled, "What did you hear, how is he doing, did you find my little sister?"


Xiao Li'er was quiet for a while, lying on her side, pulling out the Achnatherum splendens next to her in her hand, looking at the large and small figures in the distance reflected in the beautiful sunlight, and sighed: "I found it after looking for it, but little sister .married."


"Married?!"


Xue Yi let out a sound of surprise.


Xiao Li'er sighed again, and said slowly: "It's not true that I'm married, because I had doubts, I asked the brothers of the Eastern Bandit Gang to inquire, and later learned that the younger sister just knew that Chong Lian had been married for so many years. She didn't give up looking for her, so she had to make another play to make Chong Lian give up the idea of ​​looking for her again, I don't know if Chong Lian knows the truth, but Chong Lian didn't insist on looking for the little girl anymore."


Xiao Li'er's eyes were a little moist, and she turned her head to look at Xue Yi, who also had wet eyes, "Over the years, when he traveled all over the world to find his little sister, he did a lot of good deeds by robbing the rich and helping the poor. Wherever he goes is his home, maybe it suits his temperament to be a chivalrous man, he is that wild horse that can't be tied, the world is always open, and it is the most suitable to let him gallop."


----------------------

Three months later.


Tanglin, Imperial Capital.


A carriage slowly drove into the imperial capital, and the people along the way lived and worked in peace and contentment, and the prosperity was even better than before. The heads of the people on the street were shaking, the customers in the shops were endless, and the vendors on both sides of the street were orderly. The people called it Xuannian prosperity.


"Mother, why do you hear people saying that there is a living Bodhisattva in the imperial capital, and there are 49 Tianling temples specially built for Bodhisattvas?"


"is it?"


Xue Yi smiled, staring at the street scene of Tanglin through the open car window, scenes from previous years came to mind.


"What did they say?"


Mo Li's beautiful eyes rolled round, "They said that once there was a female Bodhisattva who was as beautiful as a fairy. She was a fairy who came down to save the people of Dongling. She was a Buddha who helped the world and a heroine who went to war. , The entire Dongling was saved by her, mother, is what they said true, is there really a living Bodhisattva?"


Xue Yi smiled and patted Mo Li's head, "Those are just folklore and should not be taken as true. They are just the hope that the people place on the prosperity of the country and the safety of the people."


"is it?"


Mo Li pouted, his eyeballs shone shrewdly, obviously not convinced.


On the side, Shangguan Fenglan hugged Mo Li to his lap, smiled strangely, and looked at Xue Yi again, "These legends may not be true, your mother was born so beautiful, maybe she was the one who came down to earth that day , Ah Li, do you think Dad is right?"


"ah!"


Mo Li exclaimed at first, and said with a playful smile: "Then Daddy, is A Li a little angel now?"


Xue Yi looked at Shangguan Fenglan speechlessly, Shangguan Fenglan looked back speechlessly, and said in a low voice, "Who does this child look like?"


The father and daughter joked for a while, and Xueyi looked out the car window.


It has been eight years, and I came back to the Imperial Capital again, firstly, to see Abi, who had a miscarriage in her third child, and she hurried back to visit, and secondly, she wanted to go to the Luoshui River to worship Mingxiang’s tomb .


Although Abi went to the grave to burn incense several times a year, she always wanted to go back to Dongling to see Mingxiang.


And Shangguan Hongyu

He raised his head and looked in the direction of the Imperial City of the Imperial Capital.


It seems that Shangguan Fengxuan has managed Dongling very well these years.


------------------


At this moment, the Imperial Palace.


"Your Majesty, this year's draft"


"no."


"Your Majesty, you have been on the throne for eight years, and you have been exempted every year. This harem... the harem"


"What about the harem?"


His stern eyes swept towards the imperial father-in-law in front of the dragon case.


"The women in the harem are all from the former emperor's period. If they don't renew their rotation, they will all become old women. How can they serve the emperor?"


"Then dismiss it and send it home."


"Your majesty, this is absolutely unacceptable. It is related to the body of a country, the country and the country, and the succession of children. This is no child's play. Your majesty must not say such things again."


The father-in-law wiped his cold sweat tremblingly.


Shangguan Fengxuan closed the memorial, took a sip of tea, and said calmly: "Then let them retire in the palace, it's not that I can't support these people."


"Huh? But, then, it's about the draft."


"Forget it, don't bother me with these matters, just leave them to the ministers."


After finishing speaking, he got up and teased the bird outside the imperial study room.


The father-in-law followed behind mournfully, sighing inwardly:


Alas, I am afraid that if you choose a beautiful girl to enter the palace, you will still live alone in this palace, and you will ruin those beautiful women for nothing. The current emperor looks strong and healthy, so why is he not good at this?


Could it be

Could it be that, as rumored outside, the emperor is still thinking about the - Regent Princess?

"Report to the emperor, this is the evidence searched by the humble post, please take a look at it!"


A guard came to report.


The father-in-law looked over with his stretched neck, and saw Shangguan Fengxuan spread the book, glanced at ten lines, and closed it with a snap, with a strange and cold smile in his eyes, and said faintly: "Come here, take Empress Shen into Dali Temple, wash Order the minister of Dali Temple to investigate and deal with the queen's various crimes, abolish the queen's position, confiscate the house, and punish her severely—to rectify the harem!"


"Whoo!"


Someone came to take the order and rushed to the harem with a group of imperial guards.


"Ah?! This, this, this"


The father-in-law widened his eyes in astonishment, the show girl couldn't be selected, the court lady watched the people wither, and there was a thunderbolt in the blue sky-suddenly deposed the queen!


It didn't happen all of a sudden, Shen Xiangxiang relied on the support of her father's faction in the court, and her self-willed temperament has become domineering since she became a queen as a matter of course, souring the entire harem with a mouthful of jealousy.


Over the years, there have been countless concubines and beauties who died unjustly.


Shangguan Fengxuan didn't care at first, she just thought of Shen Xiangxiang as a dead person, but after a long time, the murderous intent was brewing, even if Shen Xiangxiang relied on her father's kindness to Shangguan Fengxuan, she couldn't keep her life. It is inevitable that a family will be ransacked because of the exhaustion. Whatever the cause is planted, the fruit will be eaten.


"Your Majesty, then, this servant is preparing for the election of a new queen."


"After the election?" Shangguan Fengxuan stopped in his tracks, staring at the father-in-law indifferently, "My successor is in the whole world, and only one person is qualified to do so."


"The slave is ignorant, I don't know who the emperor likes?"


Shangguan Fengxuan took a piece of fallen flowers, smiled lightly, her eyes were empty and cool: "She is like this wind, if you miss it, go away, and never look back"


"This miss was predestined when I was still her master in my previous life."


"Past life? Master?"


The father-in-law and the second monk couldn't figure it out, and kept catching up with Shangguan Fengxuan, "Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"


-----------------


In front of the gate of the General's Mansion, there were lights and festoons, so it was very lively.


"Qingtian, you said that the princess will enter the capital almost today, why is there no one around?"


Abi has been guarding the door all day, no matter how Long Qingtian persuades her, she refuses to enter the house.


"Don't worry, maybe it was delayed on the way."


Long Qingtian smiled with his arms around Abi, and thoughtfully wiped the anxious sweat off Abi's forehead.


"Mother! Mother!"


Two children, a man and a woman ran up and hugged Abi's leg, "Mother, Daddy said, there is a distinguished guest here today, is it the one we heard from mother who saved the lives of the people in Dongling?" Buddha?"


The little girl's round lips are still dripping with saliva, and she looks very cute and cute.


"Long'er, when you see the Living Bodhisattva, you should call me Princess, you know?"


Abi picked up her three-year-old daughter, and her six-year-old son, Long Yufei, grabbed her skirt, "Mother, is the princess's daughter a little princess? I heard from mother that the little princess was born with a beautiful face." Very cute and beautiful, like a fairy, isn't it?"


Abi smiled and looked lovingly at the child who was usually serious at the foot, and it was rare to see some brilliance in his eyes at this moment, "Mother also saw that little princess many years ago, and now, she must have grown into a flower." She's an ordinary beauty, Fei Er, you have to remember, when you meet someone, you have to be called a princess, you understand."


"Oh"


-----------------------


The carriage galloped through the streets of the imperial capital.


Perhaps it was time to go to the market today, and the streets were crowded with people.


Not far away, there was a crowd of people around, as if something happened, "Mother, you see there are many people around there, let's go and have a look."


"A Li, the imperial capital is no more crowded than the Mulun Grassland. It's getting late. We have to go back to the palace first, and then go to see your Auntie Abi."


"Hmph, Ah Li is not a child!"


Mo Li tilted his head, pouted angrily and sat in the carriage silently.


Xue Yi smiled, followed the crowd of noisy people, and the carriage drove slowly across the street.


In the crowd of people just now, the onlookers were talking about it.


"Oh, what a pity, you have become an orphan at such a young age, with no one to depend on."


"At a young age, I sold my body to bury my mother, alas"


"Let's go, let's go, what's there to see, these days, there are too many little liars"


"Hey, look at this girl, she looks like she just jumped out of a painting. My uncle feels distressed when he sees it."


"It's a pity that such a good boy gave birth to a poor family for nothing."


"Go away! Go away! Go away!"


Suddenly, a group of people pushed the crowd away, and a group of people surrounded a young master standing in the crowd. The young master was born with oily hair and noodles, but his eyes were full of vulgarity in the market.


"Little girl, let's go with our master, all the money belongs to you!"


The follower next to him grinned and said.


"Are you from the official family?"


Qing Ling's voice is soft but not flattering, soft but not cowardly, like a yellow oriole coming out of the valley, but also reveals a sense of tenacity, water Lingling's eyes are fixed on the group of strong men in front of him, without fear, but clearly It's so charming and touching.


"Yo, the small eyes can see clearly, we are in the Taifu's residence—"


Before the servant could finish his sentence, the little girl cut off his words: "Officials are not allowed, merchants are not allowed, and villainous families are not allowed. The little girl only sells herself to ordinary people from good families, and serves as a slave and handmaiden in return. Big favor."


"what?!"


That group of people immediately became angry, "Damn it! You little girl, how dare you challenge the master!"


Snapped!A fan was placed in front of the entourage's chest, and the corner of the young master's mouth curled up, "What are you talking about, put the money, and take him back to the mansion!"


"Hey! Yes!"


"Come on, what are you doing there, quickly, take this little girl away!"


Phew~ A cold sword was held in the little girl's hand, which made everyone jump.


"What are you doing in a daze, you bastard, you can't even take down a baby girl, what is my young master doing to feed you slaves for nothing!"


The noodle young master suddenly became angry and kicked the attendant who was close to him forcefully.


The surrounding crowd pointed, shook their heads and sighed, some watched, some accused, some waited and watched, but they didn't help, watching a girl who was only eight or nine years old being bullied by a group of villains.


Although the girl is small, she has an indifferent and beautiful temperament, and she is quite different from girls of the same age in her maturity.


Facing these people, she did not show panic or panic.


Even though he was weak, he was fighting hard.


But she was always young and weak, even though she was proficient in moves, she lost a lot of strength in the end, and she was defeated after a while.


Suddenly, a purple figure flew across the sky, it turned out to be a handsome young man, and it was not seen how much strength the young man exerted, he beat those people to pieces in the blink of an eye, and left in a state of embarrassment.


The boy stretched out his hand: "little girl, are you okay?"


On the ground, the girl looked up, and saw a young and handsome face under the purple cloak, but her demeanor was quite stable, and there was even a sinister and gloomy smile in her eyes.


The girl flinched instead.


Seeing that she didn't move, the boy smiled again, and the girl felt that that smile was very wicked but also very pretty.


He still stretched out his hand, his fingers were slender, clean and well-proportioned: "What's your name?"


After a long time, the girl replied, "Crescent Moon."


"Crescent Moon?"


The boy stared at the girl, and landed on a string of pearls and jade jewelry hanging on the girl's chest. There were agate jade on the top and a crescent-shaped emerald green agate pendant on the bottom, which was very beautiful.


The young man asked the accompanying people to take out two ingots of gold, "I will buy you these silver taels. From now on, you will follow me, and I will be your master."


Yue Ya'er hesitated for a moment, "My official family doesn't—"


"Officials do not enter, merchants do not enter, and villains do not enter."


The young man continued her words: "I am neither an official nor a businessman. As for being evil, I am not yet."


Yue Ya'er was startled, staring blankly at the face that scared her a little but wanted to get close to it. After a while, she stretched out her hand and took an ingot of gold, "That's enough."


With a slight tug, the young man brought Crescent Moon into his arms and raised her jaw: "Remember, from this moment on, you are mine."


At the side, the crowd of onlookers dispersed, and the middle-aged man came up and whispered in the young man's ear: "Little prince, we came to Dongling under the order of the prince, and we are going to follow His Royal Highness secretly. Let's take it with us." Such a girl, I'm afraid it is "


With an unfathomable smile in his eyes, the young man stared at the middle-aged man: "Xiao Wang doesn't like talkative slaves."


The middle-aged man immediately fell silent: "Yes, I know my mistake."


"Who are you?" Yue Ya'er was determined, staring at the young man with clear eyes.


The young man also stared fixedly at Yue Ya'er, smiled suddenly for a long time, and replied in a low voice: "I am Yelu Ziqing, the eldest son of King Dingnan of Xiyi Kingdom."


"You are from Xiyi country?!"


"Remember, from now on you can only call me your Master, not my name, Crescent Moon."


There was a sly smile on the corner of the boy's mouth.


"But your Central Plains dialect is very authentic."


The young man smiled, "That's because my father's concubine is a native of Dongling."


Crescent Moon was slightly lost in thought.


On the Dijing Street yesterday, she also met a handsome young man in white clothes who was elegantly dressed. She accidentally saved the young man's life. Judging from the jade that the young man was wearing, he should also be from the Xiyi Kingdom. people.


Meeting two young men from the Xiyi Kingdom in two days was indeed a bit of a coincidence.


Yue Yue'er stared fixedly at the young man in front of her, and suddenly felt that this life, perhaps this step, would be an important turning point for her.


-----------------


In this compartment, the horse on which Xue Yi was riding was suddenly startled by something, the horse let out a few long whistles, shook violently and then stopped in the street.


Shangguan Fenglan held Mo Li in his arms, Xue Yi opened the curtain: "What's going on?"


"Ma'am, a carriage in front of me lost control and almost ran into someone."


Xue Yi poked outside, Shangguan Fenglan had already put down Mo Li, "I'll go out and have a look."


"Wait, I'll go out and have a look too."


Xue Yi then followed out and told Mo Li: "A Li, stay in the carriage and don't be naughty!"


Mo Li responded with one mouthful, and a heart flew out of the carriage.


She rode in a snow suit and Shangguan Fenglan didn't pay attention, and got out of the car quietly.


She rode in a snow suit and Shangguan Fenglan didn't pay attention, and got out of the car quietly.


On the crowded street, Mo Li was like a bird being let loose, smiling happily.


She couldn't put it down because of the prosperity of the imperial capital, and she was overwhelmed, so she bumped into someone head-on.


"Oh, who is it, why don't you have eyes when you walk!"


Mo Li rubbed his forehead that was hurt by the impact, raised his small face, stared at the other party with bright water eyes, and was about to be displeased, but swallowed the words in a daze for a second.


"Sorry, did you bump into a girl?"


The young man's voice, his soft and polite tone, his handsome face like a spring breeze, and his elegant white clothes really made Xiao Moli dumbfounded.


The boy was holding a folding fan in his hand, and when he raised his head, he was also slightly taken aback, and said happily: "It's you?!"


Mo Li frowned.


She can't remember where she saw such a good-looking brother!


However, since the other party was so happy and familiar, Mo Li turned around and smiled: "Meet you again!"


The young man in white was slightly taken aback, looking at Mo Li, but why did he feel that the woman in front of him had become cheerful and active after seeing her again after a day?


but

This face, he will not remember it wrong.


His eyes fell on the woman's chest, and he smiled slightly: "Why didn't the girl wear that precious crescent bead string today?"


"what?"


Mo Li was taken aback, his eyeballs rolled around, and then he smiled, "Oh, I, I forgot to bring it, big brother, why don't you take Ah Li to this street for a walk?"


Mo Li happily took the boy's arm, the little boy was two heads shorter than him.


The teenager smiled slightly: "Okay."


At this time, someone pulled the young man away, approached him, and said in a low voice: "His Royal Highness, we came to Dongling to do business, not to be playful."


"Don't worry, but the situation in the past half day is not too bad. Besides, this girl saved my life the day before yesterday. She asked me to play with her for a while. How can I refuse?"


The fan was opened, and the young man was graceful, and before setting off, he did not forget to ask: "Where does the girl live, and why is she alone on this street?"


Mo Li raised his head and smiled brightly: "I, my parents are listening to the play up front, it's okay, I'll go find them after playing for a while."


The young man smiled after hearing this: "That's fine, but after a while, I'll just take you there."


Mo Li sticks out his tongue, and with a smile on his arm, he swings into the bustling streets of the imperial capital.
