Reborn from the ashes: Deadly Concubine

Chapter 325 The Queen: A Call Between Men

The breath of early summer, when the sun rises in the morning, there will be an inexplicable heat.You Moqiong and Xuanyuanji stayed in the Guangyang Palace after the early court, and reported to Han Yingxi the military movements of the Xia Kingdom.Because He Lou had an important errand, Gong Yequan was still staying in the south, so there were only two of the five generals left, and the conversation was a little dull.

After the end, the two left Guangyang Hall together.

Speaking of talking, You Moqiong raised his right hand to look at his tiger's mouth unconsciously.The wound has long since healed, but the scar remains.With his actions like this, Xuanyuan Ji couldn't help but focus on his hands.

"It's really left over from the battle with the king?"

"Yes, Your Majesty is really ruthless."

Xuanyuan Ji raised his eyebrows, with a cynical expression on his face: "Your Majesty is a very sensible person, why did you offend him?"

He sighed lightly: "Isn't it because of Zhuo Zhuo? Oh, by the way, you should be familiar with him since you have met in the Xia Mu War. Zhuo Zhuo should be a big king and have some conflicts. That child is kind and straightforward, but his feelings are fragile. Now is the time when we need human care the most.”

Xuanyuan Ji's heart was shocked, but on the surface he smiled and teased: "So you cared for that girl, but the tiger's mouth was broken?"

You Moqiong said with a smile: "Although Your Majesty is shrewd and powerful, he is also good at coaxing women, but this temper collides with Zhuo Zhuo, sometimes it is really helpless. Zhuo Zhuo must be wronged these days."

The smile was no longer so free and easy, Xuanyuan Ji squeezed a smile and asked: "As a subject, you care about the affairs of the royal family casually, aren't you afraid of bringing more trouble to that girl?"

You Moqiong laughed a few times: "Haha, how could it be. It won't cause more trouble, it will only make the child smile more."

Xuanyuan Ji raised his eyebrows: "It seems that General You cares about that girl."

"Although she is a female officer, she is a respectable person. We can be regarded as friends. Isn't it right to go through fire and water for a friend? Even if she is worried, she must go forward."

Xuanyuan Ji and Zhuo Zhuo are friends now.But definitely closer than You Moqiong. After all, there were so many secrets between them, and there was a failed confession.

He didn't think about it that much, he was only worried about causing trouble to Zhuo Zhuo, but why didn't he think that she was actually afraid of causing trouble to him?The relationship between Zhuo Zhuo and the king will not deteriorate anymore, because it has reached the most difficult point.At this time, what Zhuo Zhuo needs is care and support.

Xuanyuan Ji was still acting like a fool, but his eyes were twinkling with distress.You Moqiong glanced at him, with a faint smile on his lips.

"Oh, yes, this thing..."

While You Moqiong was talking, he took out a ring from his belt and handed it to Xuanyuan Ji.The latter took it and looked at it. The topaz, with its lustrous luster, could be seen as top quality at a glance.

"Bring this ring to Miss Xuanyuan for me. She gave me so many things, and I should give her a piece in return."

Xuanyuan Ji put his mouth into an "O" shape, and finally slammed his mouth: "Oh, I didn't expect it. It seems that my younger sister has been looking forward to it for so long. Are we going to be a family?"

You Moqiong smiled, then looked towards the road ahead: "Zhuo Zhuo is right, I shouldn't miss a woman who loves me so much."

"Did she tell you that?"

"Well, she said she missed one because of fate. I hope I don't miss it, lest I regret it like her..."

Zhuo Zhuo was sent to fetch wine, which she was willing to do before, but now, she hated walking in the garden of the palace and meeting those more or less people.

He walked briskly all the way with his eyes down, took the wine, and walked back briskly holding the bottle.I also went to the bamboo forest, because it was clean, but I also met the same person.

Zhuo Zhuo looked at Xuanyuan Ji's smiling face, and couldn't help but sighed: "General Xuanyuan, what did you promise me?"

Xuanyuan Ji raised his eyebrows, looking innocent forever: "What's the matter? Oh, I promised you. But, I just looked at the bamboo, and I really didn't mean it."

Zhuo Zhuo drooped his eyes: "I don't believe it."

Shrugging his shoulders, Xuanyuan Ji said: "If you don't believe it, there is nothing you can do. Anyway, I believe it."

Sigh, this man is starting to act like a rascal.Zhuo Zhuo rolled his eyes at him and was about to leave holding the wine bottle.Xuanyuan Ji pulled out the wine bottle from her arms, Zhuo Zhuo wanted to grab it with a "ah", but he was already in his arms.

Zhuo Zhuo walked up to him to snatch it, but he hid.His martial arts are better than Zhuo Zhuo, and he can hide with ease.

"Xuanyuan Ji, stop making trouble, let people see that we are still alive. Give it to me quickly."

"Zhuo Zhuo, You Moqiong told me that he didn't want to miss Linglong, and asked me to give Linglong a ring."

This sentence is more useful than anything else, Zhuo Zhuo temporarily forgot about snatching the wine bottle, and sighed happily: "Great, great, Linglong finally got her wish!"

Xuanyuan Ji's dimples are like the sun in the sky: "He said, it's all thanks to you. So, as an older brother, I have to thank you for everything."

Zhuo Zhuo curled his lips: "Is this how you thank me?"

"of course not."

Xuanyuan laughed a few times, sniffed the wine bottle: "Good wine, good wine, for the king?"

Zhuo Zhuo pouted: "Nonsense, give it to me quickly."

Xuanyuan Ji shook his fingers, then took out something from his belt.Zhuo Zhuo immediately became curious: "What is this?"

"This is hibiscus liquid. If you mix it with wine, you will get drunk. When you wake up, your head will hurt."

Zhuo Zhuo paused, then pursed his lips.Xuanyuan Ji's smile remained the same: "How about it? Pour it in?"

"Xuanyuan Ji, are you planning to die?"

"Do you want to catch the king? If not, forget it, I'm leaving."

Zhuo Zhuo hurriedly grabbed Xuanyuan Ji, greeted Xuanyuan Ji with a happy smile, and said in a low voice: "Of course I want to play tricks on him, but won't he find out? If he finds out, you... no, I will be in trouble. "

Xuanyuan Ji's smile was much gentler, and he looked at Zhuo Zhuo with such gentle eyes: "I know you are worried about me."

Zhuo Zhuo stared at him blankly, then lowered his eyes.Xuanyuan Ji became affectionate: "But you don't need to worry about everything I do, let alone put you in danger. Just like this lotus liquid, since I gave it to you, the king will definitely not find out."

After Xuanyuan Ji finished speaking, he pulled out the stopper and poured the liquid in the vial into the wine bottle.Then he shook it and returned it to Zhuo Zhuo.

Taking the bottle, Zhuo Zhuo smiled.Is this my mother's brother?It seems that no matter in the past or now, there is always a need for such a person. Although she is powerless to fight for anything now, it might be good to teach that stinky man a lesson.

Zhuo Zhuo believed in Xuanyuan Ji, but jokingly said: "If you are found out, you will be dead."

Xuanyuan Ji laughed loudly: "If found out, I promise to apologise with death."

They can be like before again, right?

Holding the wine bottle, Zhuo Zhuo felt elated all the way.Walking into Han Yingxi's bedroom, Han Yingxi and Mai Qiu talked together.The good mood disappeared immediately, Zhuo Zhuo frowned and stood aside.

They seemed to be discussing something secret, but they stopped after she came in.

"Since there is no problem, you can make up a story."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Mai Qiu bowed, and then left.Before leaving, he smiled and looked at Zhuo Zhuo, who turned his head and ignored him.Although he was only following orders, Zhuo Zhuo still couldn't help hating him.After Mai Qiu left, Han Yingxi was still holding the bamboo slips to read, Zhuo Zhuo glanced at him from time to time holding the wine bottle, feeling a little anxious.

Finally, Han Yingxi put down the bamboo slips, and glanced at Zhuo Zhuo: "What are you doing standing there while holding it? Come and pour wine."

Zhuo Zhuo was happy in his heart, but still put on an indifferent look on the surface, sent the wine glass over, and poured the wine.Han Yingxi didn't drink directly like before, but put it under his nose and smelled it.At that time, Zhuo Zhuo's heart was in his throat.

She stared at Han Yingxi closely. Although revenge is very interesting, if Han Yingxi really finds out something, it will be really bad luck.But even if he found out, Zhuo Zhuo would not involve Xuanyuan Ji.Anyway, this is already the case, she is not afraid of one more crime.

Just when Zhuo Zhuo was worried, Han Ying drank the wine.Zhuo Zhuo was overjoyed and hurriedly filled it up for him.The two still didn't say anything, but Zhuo Zhuo felt that the day was suddenly beautiful.

After drinking half a bottle, Han Yingxi frowned.Zhuo Zhuo glanced at him secretly, guessing in his heart: Come on, he is getting drunk.Han Yingxi, who is not drunk for a thousand cups, must be puzzled by this feeling.

Han Yingxi put down his wine glass, looked up at Zhuo Zhuo: "Where did you get the wine?"

Zhuo Zhuo shouted long live in his heart, but with a straight face: "The brewery."

Han Yingxi sniffed the wine glass again, Zhuo Zhuo was so nervous that his throat became dry, and he felt his heart beating loudly like thunder.

Han Yingxi put down his wine glass and leaned against the bed: "You step back and ask Guang Sai to come in."

Zhuo Zhuo hurried out of the bottle, and said to Guang Sai at the door: "The king told you to come in." After speaking, she knelt and sat on the side, her eyes fixed on the palace door.

After about half a stick of incense, Guang Sai came out, and he said to Zhuo Zhuo and a female officer: "You two go back."

He said to the other two female officers: "You stay and serve."

The four said yes, Zhuo Zhuo stood up and left with the female officer beside her, the person in front had already walked down the steps, she turned her head to look at the palace entrance as if she didn't want to leave yet.

It was really disappointing, she still wanted to see what Han Yingxi looked like when he was drunk.

But even if you can't see it, it's a good mood.Zhuo Zhuo poured out the rest of the wine, which was regarded as the destruction of the corpse.Then he went back to the stone house, lay on the bed, and couldn't help humming a little song.

As night fell, she came back from dinner and lit the oil lamp in the house.Sitting at the table, she looked at the ring on her left hand, imagining Han Yingxi's current state.

Will it be the same as when she was drunk, talking nonsense and barking her teeth and claws?Or do you fall asleep and snore loudly?Zhuo Zhuo couldn't help laughing out loud when he thought of what he might look like.

Ridiculous enough, but she felt powerless.Lying on the table, she looked at the dimly lit oil lamp, squinting her eyes...
