concubine auspicious

Chapter 41
Xia'er put the tray on the stone table and sat down obediently.It's just that she is a little cautious today, and even a little panicked.She looked at the pearl from time to time, and at the cup of sweet soup from time to time, her eyes wandered between the two, she hesitated to speak, her expression was gloomy, and she looked very embarrassed.

"Xia'er, brother Xiaotian is getting married soon, what gift do you think I should give him?" Mingzhu asked with a smile, feeling a little sore in her heart.

At this time, she suddenly realized that she understood Liu Shuiyao's feelings.

When the person who cares for you, loves you, and guards you no longer belongs to you completely, that feeling is really hard.

Xia Er said softly, "As long as it is a gift from the master, His Royal Highness will definitely like it."

"I hope so." Mingzhu sighed slightly.

Xia'er nodded and didn't make a sound.

The breeze blows, and the pear blossoms bloom sporadically.The white flowers exude a faint fragrance in the dark night, peacefully contented.In a few days, the pear blossoms will be in full bloom.This year's pear blossom season, it seems that I can no longer enjoy the flowers with him.Next to the figure standing under the pear tree, there was another figure in his white clothes.

Suddenly, another deep male voice sounded from behind, "It's such a good time to enjoy the flowers at night?"

"My lord." Xia'er immediately got up and asked for peace.

Mingzhu turned her head slowly and met him.Perhaps it was because of the moonlight that his usual charming handsome face became warmer.Somewhat unexpectedly, he was actually dressed in white, with black hair blowing in the wind, against the background of the pear blossoms. She suddenly lost his memory of his indifferent posture.

"My lord." After a while, she called out.

"Why didn't you drink the lily and white fungus soup that the king specially ordered his servants to stew?" Feng Zhanxiu walked up to her and sat down, glanced at the untouched sweet soup, and he started to serve her a bowl.

Mingzhu stared at him blankly, without speaking.

While Xia'er stood aside, she raised her heart.She subconsciously tightened the corner of her clothes, her brows furrowed.

"Come on, this king will feed you." Feng Zhanxiu gestured to feed her.

"I……"

"My king feeds you." He didn't allow her to refuse, and his domineering temper broke out.

Mingzhu is obviously out of control, and seems to have gotten used to him like this.Seeing the spoon approaching her, she obediently opened her mouth.

The spoons are getting closer.

Xia'er raised her heart, looked at Mingzhu cautiously, and even stopped breathing at this moment.She still couldn't help but took a step forward, raised her hand and knocked over the bowl, "Master! Don't drink!"

Mingzhu froze for a moment, and looked at her in surprise and confusion, "Xia'er?"

"Damn it slave!" Xia'er knelt down on the ground and lowered her head, "The sweet soup is cold, so..."

Feng Zhanxiu squinted his eagle eyes, and shouted in a deep voice, "Presumptuous!"

"It's okay, it's okay, I don't like to drink too hot, you don't have to be busy." Mingzhu heard her say this, and seeing Feng Zhanxiu was angry again, she was afraid that he would punish Xia'er, so she immediately smoothed things over and urged, "My lord , don’t you want to feed me? Hurry up, I’m so thirsty, I want to drink.”

Feng Zhanxiu didn't move any more, but stared at Xia'er gloomyly.At the end, he snorted coldly.

"En! It looks delicious!" The bowl was shattered, and Mingzhu held the bowl of porcelain directly in front of her.She didn't care about being a lady or not, she held up the porcelain with both hands and wanted to drink.

Xia'er became even more anxious, facing another choice.

Scenes from the past emerged, and the softness deep in my heart was touched by the pearl.She was kind to her, every word she said, she said she would have a surname in the future, she said she would find a good husband for her, she said she let herself call her "sister", there are so many, so many thoughts... Xia'er's eyes widened suddenly, like a tide flooding in.

She grabbed the stones on the ground and threw them at the pot of porcelain.

Only a "bang--" was heard, and the porcelain shattered.

Mingzhu was stunned, the soup wet her hands, "..."

The mission was disrupted by him, and his identity was exposed by him, so Xia'er fled.

Feng Zhanxiu was so quiet that he shouted to the surrounding people, "Grab her! Don't let her escape!"

"Yes!" Zhong Li was hiding in the dark, and immediately dodged to catch up with Xia'er who was fleeing.

Mingzhu hadn't had time to come back to her senses, she had no idea what was happening now, and her mind went blank.She stared at the broken pieces of porcelain and the sweet soup spilled all over the floor, all she knew was Xia'er...Xia'er knows martial arts, she knows martial arts, she knows martial arts...

"So she is a spy." Feng Zhanxiu said in a deep voice, looking at her with deep eyes.

spy?Xia Er is a spy?no, impossible...

Mingzhu shook her head, her gaze was confused for a while, she finally met him, and suddenly said, "No! She's not a spy! Xia'er is not!"

"Whether it's true or not, you'll know if you ask." Feng Zhanxiu spit out a sentence quietly.

In the side hall, the lanterns were held, and the flickering candles shone.

Feng Zhanxiu grabbed the pearl and came to the side hall, where he sat in the middle alone.

Mingzhu stood aside, lowered her head and remained silent.

Recalling everything just now, she suddenly felt inexplicably terrifying.Yes, terrible, very scary.But she didn't believe it, she still didn't believe it!Xia'er, her Xia'er, how could she be a spy!They have been together for four full years, how could she!No, she wants to ask clearly!She has to ask to understand!

Feng Zhanxiu raised the corners of his lips slightly, waiting quietly.

Finally, Zhongli captured Xia'er and turned back.

Xia'er's acupoints had already been tapped, Zhongli pressed on her shoulders, and she knelt on the ground like a puppet.She gritted her teeth stubbornly, but didn't speak.Ask her, she doesn't regret the rescue just now, she doesn't regret it.I have lived so long on my last breath, maybe I should have died a long time ago.

She chuckled, and suddenly raised her head to look at Feng Zhanxiu, who was directly in front of her.

Xia'er squinted her eyes, her thin face was extremely cold and arrogant, she sneered, "Yes! I am a spy! I did the poison, and I did it all! You can kill or scrape as you please!"

Mingzhu couldn't help but tremble all over.

"Admit it so quickly? I thought I would have to interrogate him for a while!" Feng Zhanxiu said quietly.

"My lord, you are really hiding everything. You knew I was a spy, but you still refused to expose me and let me stay with the princess. Your lord's thoughts are really extraordinary. Xia'er really admires her!" She greeted her frankly. On him, fearless in life and death.

"Oh? This king doesn't know anything." Feng Zhanxiu said suspiciously, glanced at Mingzhu beside him, and then said, "This king always thought you were just a court lady, but I didn't expect you to be a spy. Now, You answer this king, who are you?"

Xia'er laughed a few times, but said nothing more.

"Don't say it?" Feng Zhanxiu instantly transformed into the cruel Asura of hell, and said a word calmly, "Don't say it, drag it out and chop it up."

"Yes!" Zhongli immediately stepped forward.

Mingzhu came back to her senses hesitantly, she hurriedly stepped forward, rushed to Xia'er, and hugged Xia'er.She hugged her so tightly and so hard, and said with a choked voice, "Don't kill her! Don't! Don't kill her..."

"..." Xia'er felt as if her heart was hugged by her, and her eyes felt sour.

Mingzhu hugged her and murmured, "Why, Xia'er, why..."

Who will tell her why Xia'er is a spy and why the person closest to her is a spy!She believed in her so much, cherished her so much, and treated her like a relative.But why, such a person is a spy, why, why, why...

"Princess, please let go." Xia'er hardened her heart and said indifferently.

Mingzhu shook her head vigorously, and hugged her even tighter, "You have a reason, don't you, you have a reason."

"No, my purpose is to poison you."

Mingzhu slowly let go of her hand, staring at Xia'er.But her eyes were already blurred, and Xia'er's face was also blurred. She said softly, "I believe you for a reason, I believe you."

"My lord!" Mingzhu turned to face Feng Zhanxiu, begging, "Let Xia'er go, let her go, I beg you!"

"She wants to poison you, but you still want to let her go?" Feng Zhanxiu asked.

Mingzhu's voice trembled, "Didn't it succeed without poisoning? Let her go! Your lord..."

"Who said no? You were also poisoned before, I'm afraid it was her who did it!" Feng Zhanxiu brought up the previous matter and shouted sharply, "She wants to harm you, but you still want to intercede for her?"

Mingzhu was startled, and turned her head to face Xia'er again, "Last time... no, it wasn't you, right?"

Her sincerely expecting eyes looked at him so earnestly, but Xia'er felt that she was pitifully kind and stubborn.

"Kill me." After a long time, Xia Er resolutely said.

"I don't believe it!" Mingzhu finally burst into tears, her eyes were red from crying, "I don't believe it! It's not you!"

"Zongli! Do it!" Feng Zhanxiu spoke again and gave the order.

Zhongli pulled the knife out of the sled, walked to the two of them, and said respectfully, "Princess, please step aside."

"I won't let! I won't let go! I won't!" Mingzhu cried and refused, hugging Xia'er desperately.And her tears flowed down Xia'er's neck, and she yelled indistinctly, "Don't kill her, please!"

Xia'er already knew that she was doomed, but at the last moment, she saw Mingzhu protecting her like this.I couldn't move, and I couldn't push her away.The poison in her body began to take hold, and she spit out a mouthful of blood in a muffled voice.This is the last day, the deadline for the last day, if you don't complete the task, you won't be able to get the medicine to keep you alive.

"Xia'er..." Mingzhu's eyes widened, she held her small face with both hands, and asked in a panic, "What's going on? Xia'er? Xia'er! What's wrong with you?"

Xia'er closed her eyes, she knew she was going to die.His eyes were warm, and his mind was full of warm memories of being with Mingzhu, and he couldn't help but whisper into her ear intermittently, "Master...don't do this...I should have died long ago...don't feel sorry for me... not worth it……"

"I won't die! Xia'er!" Mingzhu didn't know what to do, she turned her head and begged, "My lord! My lord, save her! My lord, save her!"

"But... I want to tell you something..."

Xia'er spat out a mouthful of blood while talking, "I didn't inflict the previous poison...the poison was... the crown prince..."

boom -

The world seems to have collapsed.

It was as if Mingzhu had been struck by lightning, and she was speechless with the horror that shook her heart.Brother Xiaotian... Brother Xiaotian poisoned her?how can that be possible?He poisoned her?Mingzhu couldn't believe it and was dumbfounded.Tears began to flood, and big and big ones had to fall down.

"And... and Concubine Fu..." Xia'er struggled to finish her words, but her mouth burst into sweetness, and she vomited blood and fainted.

Mingzhu cried out mournfully, "Ah—"

like a nightmare.

When she woke up, she felt only dark.There is no one in the bedroom, there is no more Xia'er, no more.She got out of bed hesitantly, but someone walked into the room at the same time.She looked up and saw him.Feng Zhanxiu was dressed in a black python robe, against which pair of dark eyes, it seemed like a pool of water, bottomless.

She ignored him and just walked past him.Brother Xiaotian... poisoned her?
But he grabbed her.

"Where are you going?" Feng Zhanxiu asked heavily.

Mingzhu wanted to shake off his hand, but couldn't.

"You want to ask your elder brother Xiaotian, did he poison you?" Feng Zhanxiu chuckled, lowered his head, and murmured, "This king is also very surprised, you like him so much and respect him, he He actually poisoned you. Hehe, the position of emperor, a country, is really coveted by people."

Mingzhu looked straight at him, too stubborn to speak.

"What are you doing looking at me like this?" Feng Zhanxiu murmured, let go of her hand and caressed her face, "Do you know? There is a relationship between this king and your Xiaotian brother." Agreement."

Mingzhu heard what he said, and instinctively stretched out her hands to cover her ears.

"Don't you want to hear it?" Feng Zhanxiu smiled again, forced her hands apart, and said word by word, "I made an exchange with him. This king helped him win the throne. In the future, you and Shui Yao will return to each other separately." But now, this king has repented. I have to tell you one more thing, in fact, you are not the emperor's daughter at all."

"..." Mingzhu froze, unable to accept so many unexpected things for a while.

Feng Zhanxiu slowly approached her ear, and said in a deep voice, "Your concubine mother is Concubine Lian. She had an affair with someone and gave birth to you. You are not the emperor's child at all. The reason why he asked you to marry This king, I am only afraid that my daughter will suffer, because he wants Shuiyao to marry your Brother Xiaotian."

"No!" Mingzhu finally couldn't help but shouted in a panic.

"It's not like this! You're lying! It's not like that at all! Father would not be like this! Brother Xiaotian would not be like this! No! Feng Zhanxiu, you are lying! You are lying! Ah—" she yelled , took a few steps back.

Feng Zhanxiu's deeper male voice overwhelmed her yelling. He stepped forward and approached her step by step, "The truth is like this, do you feel resentful in your heart? Do you hate those people? One killed you Your biological parents, yet you still recognize a thief as your father! A person who pretends to be kind, and you trust him like that, yet he secretly poisons you!"

"Do you hate these two people?"

"Hate it, hate it..."

"If you hate, then come to this king, and I will avenge you. Mingzhu, come to this king." Feng Zhanxiu stretched out his hand towards her, his eyes lit up.

Mingzhu shook her head again and again, and mumbled something foolishly, "No...impossible...not...not..."

"Mingzhu, come to this king's side." He was waiting for her, waiting to destroy her last innocence.

"I don't believe it! I'll go and find out myself! I'll go by myself!" Mingzhu roared angrily, and rushed out of the room.

Feng Zhanxiu directly hugged her in his arms.

Mingzhu struggled uneasily, "I'll go and find out myself! I'll go by myself! Feng Zhanxiu, let me go!"

"This king will let him tell you personally, why not today?" He asked with a gentle smile, so cruel that it was terrifying.

※※※

On the eyebrows of the moon, there is a ruined temple in the capital.

Inside the temple, a tall and straight figure stood with his back.Hearing the sound of footsteps behind him, he still didn't turn around.

Dong Xiaotian was still dressed in white, with an elegant appearance, but there was a bit of gloom in it.He looked at the person in front of him, and asked, "Feng Zhanxiu, why did you ask me to come out in the middle of the night?"

"His Royal Highness, it's really hard work. I let you out at such a late hour." Feng Zhanxiu turned around and said quietly.

Dong Xiaotian raised the corners of his mouth, and said in the same deep voice, "Speak up quickly if you have something to say, don't do this."

"His Royal Highness, I suddenly learned of a very interesting thing. It's just that this matter makes me half-believed, and I want to ask Your Highness if he knows." Feng Zhanxiu said in a condensed voice.

Dong Xiaotian stopped responding and waited for his next words.

"I heard that Princess Mingzhu is not the younger sister of His Royal Highness, is this true?" Feng Zhanxiu asked directly, his eyes fixed on him.

Dong Xiaotian was taken aback for a moment, and then laughed again, "Feng Zhanxiu, what tricks are you playing? Mingzhu is not the younger sister of this hall, you already knew it! Why are you so hypocritical?"

"His Royal Highness, I just wonder if Tie Zheng has a younger brother, or an older brother?" Feng Zhanxiu changed the subject.

Dong Xiaotian narrowed his eyes, unwilling to talk to him, "Feng Zhanxiu, I don't have time to talk to you about this. Mingzhu is yours, and Liu Shuiyao is married to me!" He put down these words and turned around leave.

Feng Zhanxiu stood where he was, and said softly, "I respectfully send you off to Your Highness."

And behind the Buddha statue in the ruined temple, Mingzhu's acupuncture point was tapped and she remained motionless.Her eyes were already blurred, and she could no longer see clearly.She had already burst into tears, and she couldn't even cry.My heart hurts so much that I can't feel it, why do I let her know this, why...

Feng Zhanxiu walked up to her and opened her acupuncture points.

In front of him was her crying like a little teardrop.

"Why are you crying? You should be happy when you know the truth." He stretched out his hand and gently wiped away her tears. When his fingers were stained with tears, he found that his heart was burning.

Mingzhu cried until she was sobbing, and she couldn't speak.

The person she loved betrayed her.Those who love her are just illusions.The people she relies on abandon her.The person she trusted wanted to harm her again.She had nothing, and in the end, nothing.Everything is fake, everything is fake, everything is fake...

It's just an illusion, an illusion...

"Why..." After a long, long time, Mingzhu said tremblingly.

"Why are you telling me this, why are you telling me this so cruelly..."

Mingzhu sobbed and cried, and asked extremely sadly, "Feng Zhanxiu! Why did you tell me this so cruelly! Why! Why did you tell me!"

She reached out her hand suddenly, grabbed his skirt tightly, and tightened it painfully.

"Because you and I are the same kind of people, we both need hatred, and only hatred can survive." Feng Zhanxiu said softly, holding her in his arms.His movements were very light, as if he was afraid of hurting her.

"Hate? I don't want hatred! I don't need hatred!" Mingzhu murmured, at a loss.

"The emperor killed your parents, don't you want to take revenge? Your brother Xiaotian is no longer worthy of your attachment. He can poison you for the throne. You treat that maid as a brother, but she wants to Kill you. They all have a purpose, and none of them treat you with sincerity."

"Mingzhu, tell me, do you want revenge?"

Feng Zhanxiu's voice was like a lullaby, able to confuse people's hearts.

Revenge, revenge, revenge...

Mingzhu's eyes widened hesitantly, something surged in her heart, she suddenly pushed him away, she shouted hoarsely, "I don't want revenge! I don't want revenge! What kind of revenge! I don't want hatred!"

"I know you want revenge, don't worry, when your big brother Xiaotian gets married, this king will let you watch them kill each other, isn't it very interesting. Hehe." He laughed so hard that his hatred grew .

She met him in bewilderment, staring at him uneasily. The man in front of her was like a monster, a monster she had never known, a terrible monster.

"Feng Zhanxiu, why did you do this! How did they offend you!"

"Why did you let me know this!"

"No, no, I don't want..."

Mingzhu turned around and wanted to run away, but Feng Zhanxiu easily grabbed her wrist and dragged her towards him brutally.He trapped her in his hands and looked down into her eyes.In front of Mingzhu, there is a bloodthirsty, violent and evil handsome face, that kind of hateful eyes, scanning the sky, earth, and people, not allowing the three realms.

"You don't love anyone, you don't like anyone, you don't like Liu Shuiyao, you don't like anyone..."

"Why? Why are you on earth!"

Feng Zhanxiu was pointed out by her words, and the long-silent hatred instantly engulfed him.With red eyes, he said word by word, "Have you ever tried the feeling of crawling out of a pile of dead people? Have you ever seen the feeling of a loved one dying in front of you? My mother was burned alive. His father was pierced by random arrows, and even his heart was dug out."

"Don't say it! Don't say it anymore!" Mingzhu begged for mercy, as if those terrible pictures flashed before her eyes.

"Have you heard that cry for help, have you heard that shrill cry!"

"I hate this Daxing Dynasty! I hate everything here! I hate the descendants of Donglingpo even more! I want to watch them die one by one!" He kissed her lips, bit them lightly, and the smell of blood was pervasive.

Mingzhu was numbly kissed by him, and her consciousness began to blur.

※※※

A wisp of sandalwood rose up.

Clothes scattered all over the floor, black python robes, bright yellow skirts.The red silk curtain hung down, covering the two unentangled bodies on the bed.Heavy panting, and a corrupt | erotic | atmosphere of lust.

The black hair is like a waterfall, hanging over her delicate shoulders.

Feng Zhanxiu lowered his head, looked at the stubborn and pretty face under him, and smiled softly.The wet tongue lightly licked her delicate side face, and the male voice was extremely hoarse.

"Mingzhu, tell me how you should repay this king. This king let you know the truth."

"Huh?" He murmured ambiguously, kissing her forehead, eyelids, and nose bridge all over the sky, demanding everything from her.

Mingzhu squinted her eyes and stared at him through the gap, her expression was in a trance.

"Hehe." He laughed again, but there was no smile in his eyes, "Why didn't you answer the question I asked you?"

Feng Zhanxiu looked at him amusedly, his eagle eyes sparkled with moonlight, and he whispered again, "This king has been waiting for this day, waiting for you to grow up little by little."

Mingzhu was dumbfounded, not angry.

"What are you doing looking at me like this?" Feng Zhanxiu's hand was already stroking her soft chest, kneading her chest with his index finger and middle finger.However, her originally pale complexion slowly turned flushed, and her fair skin was flushed, and she was not very beautiful.

Mingzhu pursed her lips, not letting herself groan|groan.

He moved closer to her again, almost touching her lips, "Mingzhu, I'm still not good at learning. When I was a child, I always ran away when I saw this king. Do you remember what you said the first time you saw this king? "

"You said that this king is not a human being, nor a ghost. You ran away really fast by shouting and fearing."

"Mingzhu, are you still afraid now?" He said, silently merging with her, and began to move repeatedly.

The memory hidden deep in Mingzhu's heart suddenly appeared, and it was a very blurry picture.

In the picture, she fell to the ground, and a figure suddenly fell in front of her.She raised her head, it was a young man with a gentle smile, that handsome face was no different from now, it was... Feng, Zhan, Xiu?How could it be him?He stood in front of him and held out his hand to her.

A pair of eyes that hide too much pathos.

But his smile was too cold.

This breath made her feel terrible.

She said intuitively, not a human, you are not a human, and you are not a ghost.You are nothing, afraid, afraid.

The little girl immediately got up and ran fast, and then fell again.Then she met another handsome boy, she jumped at him in fear and hugged him tightly.

That was Dong Xiaotian.

But in memory, I always remember that gentle and smiling face.

It turned out that it was those sad eyes that made her feel so sad...

"You...it's you..." Mingzhu came back to her senses in astonishment, and suddenly shed tears.

Feng Zhanxiu lowered his head and kissed her shoulder, the tooth marks he had left in those years were like guard sand, which had disappeared without a trace.

Ding ding dong sound of running water.

Someone is taking a shower.

Feng Zhanxiu hugged the puppet-like Pearl, which had no vitality at all, and stared at a certain point with empty eyes, out of focus.Maybe it was because the previous incident was too severe, and she obviously couldn't accept it.Mo Ran had to let him do whatever he wanted, she quietly obeyed.

Feng Zhanxiu picked up a wave of water and covered her body.The big dark hands touched her skin, and her body was finally full of traces left by the love.He lowered his head slowly, and said in a deep voice, "After today, after tomorrow, your brother Xiaotian will get married the day after tomorrow."

"Do you want to see it? It should be very intense." He said, kissing her neck all the way down.

Pearl's heart lake moved slightly, and finally there was a gleam of light in her empty eyes.

"This king knows that you want to see that scene of cannibalism must be very interesting." Feng Zhanxiu said hoarsely, holding her tightly with both hands from behind her.

Mingzhu thought of Emperor Hong and Dong Xiaotian, and couldn't help crying like rain.

Tears rolled down his face, and he tasted a hint of saltiness.

Feng Zhanxiu stopped kissing, and Mo De raised his head, and at the same time, he turned her whole body towards him vigorously with both hands.He stared at her pale little face and met her tearful eyes.Suddenly a little irritable, burning from his chest, he narrowed his eyes and shouted sharply, "Why are you crying!"

"Say it! Why are you crying! This king forbids you to cry!" His hands began to forcefully grab her shoulders and they creaked.

Mingzhu didn't speak, didn't pay attention to it, and the tears were still flowing.

As if crying until the world collapses.

"Don't cry! Did you hear me! I don't allow you to cry! For such a person, what is there to cry for? It's not worth it at all! You should be happy, happy that they are going to die!" Feng Zhanxiu roared angrily, and kissed On her face, the salty taste surged towards him, making him feel strange and familiar.

Mingzhu was still crying and didn't say a word.

"Damn it!" Feng Zhanxiu finally couldn't bear the curse, and stood up abruptly.He only heard the sound of water splashing, and his tall and strong body stood up from the tub.He stepped out of the bathtub and picked her up together.He turned around and carried her towards the bed, and put her down.

Mingzhu was silent, she just curled her body into a ball.

That is a posture of complete defense, defending others, preventing others from getting closer to one's heart.

"These two days, you don't go anywhere, just stay here. Soon, soon this king will avenge you." Feng Zhanxiu reached out to touch her, but she trembled instinctively.He chuckled and seemed extremely interested.He took a deep look at her, took the clothes and put them on.

After fastening the last button, he walked out of the bedroom without looking back.

He stopped suddenly, and said in a deep voice, "Don't play the boring game of committing suicide for this king, otherwise, all the maids who serve you will be buried with you!"

After the words fell, he slammed the door and left.

※※※

The underground secret room of the palace, a dark dungeon where the sky cannot be seen.

The dungeon is damp and the air is thin.Some people groan|groaned from time to time, faltering.Judging from the voice, it was a woman.But it was too dark here to see anything at all.Only the rubbing sound of clothes could be vaguely heard, and it sounded slightly.

Suddenly, the stone door of the secret room was slowly opened.

A cluster of fire ignited light, illuminating the dark dungeon.

Zhongli led the way with the fire box, followed by Yun Ni, and Feng Zhanxiu was behind them.A green dress, a red dress, and an evil purple.The light from time to time illuminated the three of them indistinctly.The sudden arrival of the three of them made the dungeon feel cramped.

In the corner of the dungeon, someone was lying motionless on the ground.

Xia'er struggled to open her eyes and looked at the person coming.She raised the corners of her lips and said intermittently, "War King...why didn't you kill me..."

"Kill you? Why did you kill you?" Feng Zhanxiu smiled like a Shura.

Xia'er only felt a chill all over, and the smile he revealed was enough to make people die of coldness.It was only then that she realized that this man's mind was terribly deep, completely incomprehensible, or no one could understand him at all.Xia Er narrowed her eyes, and asked again, "Does the lord want to help the crown prince, or Prince Rui?"

"What do you think? Who do you think this king wants to help?" Feng Zhanxiu seemed to be in a good mood, so he dealt with her.

Xia'er pondered quietly.

According to what she knew, Prince Rui wanted to start a rebellion when the prince got married.But Emperor Hong was eager to let the prince get married, and it was obvious that he wanted to win over Prime Minister Liu.The two forces have been fighting openly and secretly for a long time, and now it is a critical juncture.Both Emperor Hong and Prince Rui wanted to use the King of War for their own use, not only because of the military power he held in his hands, but also because he was brave and good at fighting.

At that time, the civil strife has just settled down, and if Linguo provokes a war, the King of War will be enough to deal with the enemy.

Hongdi married Mingzhu to Zhanwang, in fact, he wanted to recruit security.But he was afraid of the war king's rebellion, so he only married the foolish princess to him.Hongdi's scheming can be seen.Prince Rui used Concubine Fu as a threat again, wanting Zhan Wang to submit, and reached a covenant with Zhan Wang.

But both sides were afraid that the war king would betray him temporarily, so they wanted to take the soldier talisman in his hand.

The prince sent troops to assassinate him, but the King of War saw through.Prince Rui used a beauty trick, King Zhan would not accept such tricks at all.

Both sides were short of one move, and fell short.

But the war king said to the princess that he lost something.That thing should be a soldier talisman, but according to the information, no one has stolen the soldier talisman!Otherwise, the prince would not personally feed the princess poison and threaten her.The prince didn't expect that the princess would sponsor the King of War, and insisted that he was not responsible for the poison.

Now, she was poisoned but not dead.

and many more……

Xia'er was startled suddenly, and her chest felt tight.Could it be...could it be that Concubine Fu was assigned by the King of War?Concubine Fu is a member of the King of War?this is too scary!

All the things were connected in one line, and Xia'er spit out a sentence in astonishment, "The prince wants to usurp the throne."

"Haha——" Feng Zhanxiu laughed, neither admitting nor denying it.

He turned and left, commanding, "Watch her!"

"Yes!"

In the small attic in the garden, Feng Zhanxiu sat alone in it.Habitually playing with that piece of Linglong jade in his hands, he seemed to be waiting for something.He looked up casually, and his eyes touched the flourishing pear blossoms.Blossoming pear blossoms, Bose flowers, suddenly lost sight.

It was a sunny afternoon.

In the back garden of the palace, a group of little princes and princesses are having fun.

The little girl hugged the little pillow and wandered around.She smiled foolishly, innocently.She didn't notice that a group of little princes and princesses were running towards her in the distance.She was surrounded by the group of children. Someone snatched her little pillow, someone pushed her down, and someone stepped on her body.

She only looked at them with innocent eyes, and her little face was full of grief.

"Wild child! Where are you going?"

"She's still an idiot! She doesn't understand what we're saying! Concubine Mu said that you can't get in touch with idiots, or you'll become idiots! Let's go!"

"Oh, it's going to be a fool! We don't play with her!"

The group of children threw pillows on the ground, stepped on them one by one, and threw her down on the ground.

The little girl looked at the figures of the children going away, but stood up in a hurry, picked up the small pillow on the ground and hugged her tightly.As she walked, she patted the small pillow and murmured, "Be good, baby, don't be afraid, let's go home. Be good, baby, don't be afraid, we..."

Suddenly, his left foot became unsteady and caught a stone, and he fell to the ground abruptly.

The little girl was laying on the ground, and said stupidly, "I fell down again, get up again, the baby is not afraid."

He walked towards her slowly, looked at the pitiful little girl in front of him, and stretched out his hand to her involuntarily.The little girl raised her head and also saw him.That exquisite and round face, those innocent eyes, so clear and untainted by the filth of the world, suddenly shone in like a ray of sunshine.

He couldn't help raising the corners of his lips, not even feeling tender to himself.

The little girl was stunned, and shouted in shock, "You are not human, you are not human, and you are not a ghost. You are nothing, be afraid, be afraid."

She got up in a panic, picked up the small pillow and ran fast.

He stood there stunned, his outstretched hand froze in mid-air, and chuckled softly.

……

"My lord, Mr. Gongsun has arrived!" Zhong Li walked up to the small attic and whispered back beside him.

Feng Zhanxiu was awakened by the sudden cry, and slowly regained his senses, and said in a deep voice, "Bring him to see the king!"

"Yes!" Zhongli turned and left.

Feng Zhanxiu held Linglong Yu tightly, and looked down at his other hand.He moved, his fingers bent into such a lonely posture.

※※※

Not long after, Zhongli brought Gongsun Qingming to the back garden.

Gongsun Qingming was the same as before, swaying the jade fan slowly, and dressed in a crescent moon white dress in a suave manner.A small golden abacus is hung on the money bag at the waist. A businessman is a businessman, and he never leaves the money bag and the abacus.He nodded slightly towards Zhongli and walked up to the attic.After stepping on the last step, he bowed and said with a smile, "My lord, please stay safe."

"My lord wants you to detoxify." Feng Zhanxiu looked at the pear blossom tree, he didn't beat around the bush, but said directly.

Gongsun Qingming walked to the stone bench beside him and sat down, and said in a leisurely manner, "My lord asked if I could not completely detoxify the poison even if I took the spirit rhinoceros."

"Temporarily restrained the toxicity." Feng Zhanxiu said silently.

Gongsun Qingming shook the jade fan lightly, and said thoughtfully, "It seems that the poison is not as powerful as usual."

"Make an offer." Feng Zhanxiu didn't intend to spend too much time with him.

Gongsun Qingming glanced sideways at him, although he was suspicious, he didn't ask why.Looking at the Ruobai pear blossom again, the corners of his lips raised slightly, and a ray of light shot up from the bottom of his eyes. In an instant, he had already thought about it.He squinted his eyes and said with a smile, "Detoxification is fine, but I don't want money this time."

"The merchant doesn't want money?" Feng Zhanxiu said suspiciously, but remained calm, "Then what do you want?"

Gongsun Qingming blurted out, only two words, "Pearl."

"Not now!" Feng Zhanxiu narrowed his eyes and refused in a deep voice.

When Gongsun Qingming heard him say that, he was a little surprised and even a little curious.Closing the jade fan, he couldn't help but asked, "She is no longer of much use to the lord, what use is the lord to keep her? Could it be that she is really willing to die to be reconciled? A lonely woman, why should the lord do it?" !"

"You care about her very much!" Feng Zhanxiu pointed out sharply.

Gongsun Qingming didn't deny it, and said quietly, "A woman who was brought up by her enemy, a victim of the imperial power, still wholeheartedly protects her enemy. Don't you think it's too pitiful for you to be lonely for half your life, and you should pay her back a little." Happy. Otherwise, her fate would be too rough."

"She has opened her eyes now." Feng Zhanxiu said softly, with cruelty that destroys innocence in his eyes.

Gongsun Qingming was startled, he didn't expect that Feng Zhanxiu would tell her the truth, the secret that had been hoodwinked for decades.But why did he do this, at such a critical juncture.Gongsun Qingming thought for a moment, and found that his thoughts were a little messy.

"My lord, you..."

He was about to speak, but was interrupted by Feng Zhanxiu, "That deal, what do you decide now?"

Gongsun Qingming frowned, and subconsciously clenched the jade fan tightly.He was silent for a moment, then said firmly, "I will not change."

"No change?" Feng Zhanxiu repeated.

"Exactly!" Gongsun Qingming replied, his gloomy handsome face suddenly became clear, and he said chicly, "However, the prince used up the tears of the golden toad, and it will take some time to find it again. There is also the matter of detoxification that the prince ordered. , the prince also knows that detoxification cannot be completed in a short while..."

Feng Zhanxiu asked, "What do you want?"

"I want to see Mingzhu." Gongsun Qingming took his words carefully.

Feng Zhanxiu seemed to have expected it a long time ago, and his expression didn't change too much. Instead, he shouted, "All away!"

"exist!"

"Take him to the Old Su Palace!"

"Yes!"

Gongsun Qingming stood up, bowed and said goodbye, "Let's leave for now!"
