Daughter of the royal palace

Chapter 505
The sunset glow is like blood, smudged the whole sky.The sky is full of clouds and clouds, like rolling waves and waves, rolling layers of waves in the boundless sky.

The vermilion tiles glow with the orange light of the setting sun, the breeze blows by, the green grass and strange flowers, and the mountains and mountains, the solemn and splendid palace looks a little lonely and desolate.In the exquisite palace with carved beams and painted buildings, the slightly opened windows smelled faintly of incense in the wind.

There was a person sitting on the desk, dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe, with picturesque eyebrows, exuding an elegant and noble temperament.He was holding a memorial in his hand, and his phoenix eyes skipped over the writing on it.

"My emperor has been on the throne for three years, and now the world is at peace. I ask your majesty to select a day for the draft to enrich the six palaces."

He threw the memorial aside and rubbed his aching temple, but he glanced at the mountain of memorials beside him.He can memorize the content recorded above fluently, all of which are for him to draft.

Draft?

For any emperor, these two words are extremely common.But to Xiao Tingxuan, it was a little strange.

He stood up, walked to the window, and stood with his hands behind his back.

Three years, how time flies.

Wuyou City surrendered to Daqing three years ago, and it took him half a year to finally make all the people in Wuyou City surrender.

Today the world is peaceful and the people have ample food and clothing.The only fly in the ointment is that the current sage has been on the throne for three years, but there is no concubine in the harem.If things go on like this, won't there be no successors to the Xiao family's country?The emperor is 23 this year.

Xiao Tingxuan's phoenix eyes were half closed. When he ascended the throne, he thought his parents were filial and refused to accept the concubine.But now, three years have passed, and it's time for him to get married.

but--

He lowered his head, pursed his thin lips tightly, a bright and refined face flashed in his mind, and a soft smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Will she agree to marry him?Would she be willing to give up her freedom and be trapped within the palace walls all her life?
Just as he was thinking, suddenly there was the eunuch's report.

"Your Majesty, King Ning Huai is asking to see you."

Xiao Tingxuan was startled, after Wuyou City belonged to Daqing, he did not abolish Ouyang Chen's title.It was a gift given by the first emperor, and he was not qualified to take it away.

He turned around, "Let him in."

After a while, Ouyang Chen came in and saw Xiao Tingxuan standing by the window, he didn't salute, his eyes glanced at the memorial on the table.

"It's been three years, and you still don't plan to marry her?" Since the war three years ago, the relationship between him and Xiao Tingxuan was no longer so indifferent and hostile, as if they had returned to the days when they fought together many years ago.

Xiao Tingxuan walked over slowly, looked at him, and suddenly smiled lightly.

"If I don't marry her, don't you still have a chance?"

Ouyang Chen glanced at him indifferently, and nodded solemnly.

"Well, that's right." The corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and a wicked smile was rippling in his eyes.

"I'm going to prepare the dowry right now, and ask King Zhongyi to marry me." As he was about to leave, Xiao Tingxuan sighed slightly behind him.

"Achen..."

A ray of anger suddenly appeared in Ouyang Chan's eyes, and he turned around suddenly, his usual indifferent face was covered with frost.

"What are you still hesitating about? She has been waiting for you for three years. Do you know how many rumors there are about her?"

Xiao Tingxuan's eyes darkened, of course he knew.

Girls in this world get married early, usually when they are young. Ling Xihan is 21 years old this year, so she is considered an older woman.The reason why my mother didn't get married back then was because she was disabled, and the outside world despised her.It was the marriage bestowed by the first emperor, and she was nearly 21 years old at that time.

The marriage between him and Ling Xihan has long been spread throughout the world, and everyone thought that he would marry her into the palace after the filial piety period, and enjoy thousands of favors.But he has not taken any action for a long time, which of course makes people guess.Those ministers had already prepared a lot of women for him, and they wished that they could all be included in the harem.

Seeing his silence, Ouyang Chen suddenly lost his temper.He lowered his brows and lowered his eyes, his voice was low and full of melancholy and sentimentality.

"Are you still waiting for your aunt to wake up?"

Xiao Tingxuan froze, his eyes were a little confused, and Ouyang Chen also fell silent.

Three years ago, when they found the first emperor and successively, the sun had already set.When they saw the first emperor, they saw that his head was covered with white hair like snow, his eyes were dead and gloomy, without any brilliance at all.

Missed the last chance, Empress Shenying—no, it should be the Empress Dowager now.The queen mother has no chance of survival.Prince Jing had already experienced exhaustion when it was opened, and closed his eyes forever.Prince An's reaction was the most excited. He opened his eyes wide at that moment, with a look of despair on his face.Even Lie Kong silently chanted the Buddha's name in grief, and almost everyone was in despair.But Emperor Yuan Qing—no, the Supreme Emperor was like a drowning man grabbing the last straw, his dead eyes suddenly regained their brightness.Under his persistent questioning, Prince An repeated what he said before with empty eyes.When the Supreme Emperor heard it, he almost snatched the relic from empty hands.Then he rushed into the cave like the wind.

A group of people walked in, only to find that the inside turned out to be an ice cave, and the surrounding walls were all made of ice.There is also an ice bed parked in the innermost part, which was built by Xuanbing the year before last.If martial arts practitioners sleep on it, their skills will be enhanced, and it is the most precious treasure in the world.

At this time, the Queen Mother was sleeping quietly on the ice bed.Her hair was like snow, her face was haggard and old, but her brows and eyes were more than enough to see her peerless beauty.

Finally got to see her, but no one can be happy.Except for the Supreme Emperor.He opened the Xuanbing bed and gave the relic to the queen.Then use internal force to help her dissolve the power of the relic.Liaokong sighed aside, the queen's lifespan has long been exhausted, and it is impossible to be reborn again.However, seeing the Taishanghuang's persistence and madness, no one bothered him.

However, a miracle happened to everyone's surprise.

After the Empress Dowager took the relics, and then dredged through the internal power of the Supreme Emperor, the wrinkles on the original old face faded away, and she was as young as twenty years.Even the bloodshot head was turning back to black little by little.

Seeing this scene, everyone was stunned.Even Kong Kong was surprised, and then he could only lament that the heavens were moved by the emperor's infatuation, so that the relics could still exert their energy after two hours.

Later they found out that at the moment when the Queen Mother held her breath, the Supreme Emperor used all his life's internal energy to store her last breath in the dantian, so the relics could play a role in time.It's not clear why he did that at the time, maybe, he just used this method to give himself a spiritual life for the rest of his life.

But although the queen mother recovered her appearance, she did not wake up.Liaokong took her pulse carefully, and finally sighed.They were still one step too late, the queen mother had already exhausted her energy.The whole body has been paralyzed, and it is impossible to wake up in such a short period of time.But after taking the relics, she was breathing and her heart was beating.It's just that no one can guarantee when she will wake up.In other words, she is now a living dead, a vegetable in modern medicine.Maybe one day at a certain moment, she suddenly woke up.Or maybe she will never wake up.
