【Ancient Journey】 Act 17 [Lonely Minister]

"Sir, what do you say this long-cherished lord will see when he looks back? Like a curious baby, Sinzaima was very curious about what the lord of the kingdom saw and heard after turning around in a dream.

Gu Yina was here to sip the snow tea on the table, and did not speak for the time being. On the family seat seated opposite, many sons of the family would cast a curious glance at Gu Yina from time to time.

"Falling Snow Tea" is also called "Falling Snow Xiangqiong", it is brewed with years of snow water mixed with Jibei famous tea "Xiangqiong", the taste is fresh and elegant, the aroma does not disperse for a long time after the entrance, usually only the royal family of the dream country, and the guests from afar are eligible to enjoy such tea.

In the eyes of those sons of the family, Gu Yina's appearance refreshed their previous cognition of the Beilu people, who originally thought that the Beilu barbarians were all tigers and bears, until tonight they saw Gu Yina, who looked like a fairy, these children of the family who were quite arrogant on weekdays lost their temper, except for a son who sat at the end of the seat.

In the face of many ambiguous eyes, Gu Yina turned a blind eye.

And the son, who was sitting at the end of the seat and listening carefully to Yun Ji's story, attracted Gu Yina's attention here.

At this time, she had already guessed the true intention of the Lord of the Kingdom of Su to tell this dream, "It doesn't matter what you see. Anyway, what the next master of the country will say is definitely not for us. ”

After listening to Gu Yina's answer, Xin Zaima showed a look of understanding or not, and seeing that Yun Fan on the side was thoughtful, Gu Yina woke him up: "Yes, Junhou." ”

"You say, should I take her words? Yun Fan, who came back to his senses between the words, seemed to hesitate, he felt that this was Yun Ji, as the lord of the country, giving him a chance to stand up for himself, so that everyone in the hall tonight could know himself, the future lord of the kingdom.

Gu Yina saw through his thoughts: "Do you want to take it?" ”

"I want to take another look and see how many people's blood is still hot in the country today. Yun Fan looked around at the people in this Jingyi Hall and said to Gu Yina.

However, when Yun Fan made eye contact with the prince who was sitting at the head of the family seat at this moment, the endless killing intent engulfed Yun Fan at the moment when the four eyes met: "This is ?!?"

Transform your mind with your heart!

The murderous aura of déjà vu made Yun Fan subconsciously touch the Tianzong teeth on his waist, but he suddenly remembered that because he was going to the banquet tonight, he didn't bring the magic knife.

When his eyes met, the cold killing intent turned into a sharp knife and slashed straight at Yun Fan, Yun Fan subconsciously tried to catch this knife, but he found that he couldn't catch this knife at all!

Because it's an invisible knife of mind!

The near-death experience was accompanied by an endless chill, which almost made Yun Fan faint on the spot, but fortunately, Gu Yina found out that Yun Fan's face was wrong in time, and then gently patted him on the shoulder.

A wave of warmth flowed down Gu Yina's hand, waking Yun Fan up from the illusion just now: "Junhou, are you okay?"

The sapphire-like eyes immediately followed Yun Fan's gaze and touched the prince who was sitting at the head of the family, and the heart knife that originally cut Yun Fan's eyebrows was dissolved by Gu Yina.

But I saw that the son who was at the head of the family seat, dressed in a dark moire brocade robe, with purple willow leaves engraved between the sleeves, a face like a knife, a fair complexion like the bright moon, under the eyebrows of the flying sword, a pair of indifferent eyes, did not hide his killing intent towards Yun Fan.

However, these killing intents all disappeared with Gu Yina's smile. When the boy saw this, he suddenly had doubts. He was surprised that this woman sitting next to Yun Fan could look at him without any pressure, and instantly dissolved the endless killing intent condensed in his heart!

After a brief exchange, the boy narrowed his gaze and drank the liquor from his glass as if nothing had happened just now.

If Gu Yina hadn't found out in time and helped Yun Fan, Yun Fan might have really fainted on the spot at this moment. With the mind, the invisible killing blade can easily suppress Yun Fan, who is in the early stage of the tenth order, in an instant, which can only be done by a martial artist who has entered the realm of heart martial arts!

At this time, Yun Fan was already covered in cold sweat, he calmed down his emotions, and did not dare to look at that person again, this piercing killing intent made Yun Fan have a kind of illusion of déjà vu. He lowered his eyebrows and whispered to Gu Yina: "Who is the person who is at the head of the family seat at this moment?"

Gu Yina: "Liu's wind knife, with his heart, the person who sits at the head of the family seat at this moment should be the future head of the Liu family, Liu Fengchen, the eldest son of the Liu family." ”

Yun Fan looked at Gu Yina in surprise: "It turned out to be him?"

Gu Yina: "The one who can be qualified to sit at the top of the family must be the Liu clan of the Su Kingdom, and the prince must know this." If the prince didn't recognize him as Liu Fengchen, could it be that the prince regarded him as the second son of the Liu family, the Liu Fengsoul who was famous for his air sword?"

Yun Fan knew Liu Fengchen and his younger brother Liu Fengsoul, but he hadn't seen him for many years, and he didn't recognize him for a while. This was the first time in Yun Fan's life that he had learned the power of Liu's wind knife.

He didn't know what had happened to Shuguo in the past few years, so that Liu Fengchen, who had never asked about the world, had a killing intent towards him, and the seemingly simple things also became confusing in this short period of time.

Faced with Gu Yina's doubts, he couldn't hide the sudden disappointment in his heart: "I was just a little surprised, I didn't expect that among so many people who want to kill me now, there will be him." ”

......

Yun Ji's question was exchanged for the silence of the courtiers and the family. Silence does not mean not knowing. A wise person will walk in the golden mean. Following the crowd is sometimes a kind of wise self-preservation, but there are often many kinds of smart people. Some people are just smart, and some people are smart and courageous.

"What does the lord want to see? At this moment, a prince at the bottom of the family broke the silence for a moment. When everyone followed the sound to find this son, they found that the son turned out to be the head of the Lu family in the Star City, and Lu Weiwen.

Yun Fan, who was in deep thought, suddenly shifted his attention with the appearance of this handsome son. Gu Yina, who was sitting in the VIP seat, cast an approving look at the son named Lu Weiwen, "The face is like condensed, the eyes are like the morning star, what a handsome son of a family." ”

"Sir, you have good eyesight, how can you see so far away?" asked Sinzaima in a whisper when she heard Guina's self-talk.

"I didn't ...... You heard it wrong. Gu Yina, who was suddenly asked by Sinzaima, blushed shyly. This was the first time Sinzaima saw Gu Yina blushing, and Sinzaima, who didn't know why, was so frightened that she said something wrong, which made Gu Yina angry, so she silently retracted her seat and stopped talking.

At this time, the eyes of everyone in the hall fell on the head of the Lu family. And the gaze of the head of the Lu family inadvertently touched Gu Yina at this time. Gu Yina, who was already red because of her shyness, turned even redder.

Tonight's Jingyi Hall is not an ordinary bustle.

With the question of the head of the Lu family, the ministers whispered during the banquet. Tonight is a celebratory feast for Yun Fan's return. Except for the head of the Lu family from Dianxing City, all the heads of the families in the Shuguo Kingdom did not appear in the Jingyi Hall tonight.

Although all large and small families have sent the young generation of heroes in their respective clans, there is still something wrong with the rules of etiquette and music of the Ji Dynasty after all.

"Your Excellency is the head of the Dianxing Lu family, Lu Weiwen?"

"Exactly. Lu Weiwen didn't expect that he, who was at the end of the family of the country, could be called out of the lintel by the lord of a country.

Yun Ji: "The head of the Lu family thinks that what Gu wants to see, what he will see. ”

"Foolishly, the lord of the kingdom should ask what else, but you didn't see it. Faced with Yun Ji's question, Lu Weiwen replied indifferently, but in the next moment, he attracted the sons of the surrounding families, whispering and sneering at each other during the banquet.

"Where did you come from, the maniac is still quite angry?"

"Dare to teach the lord of the country to do things, amazing. ”

"Everyone said just now, it's from Star City. ”

"Point Star City Xilu Family, I know. That family was almost dead because of the previous war between our country and Moyun. ”

"No wonder he was so ignorant, it turned out to be an orphan. ”

"I just said how he became the head of the house at such a young age. ”

"It's pathetic, tsk. ”

Although, Lu Weiwen's words attracted the disgust of many sons of the family. But. Not all sons of the family have this attitude. Liu Fengchen, the eldest son of the Liu family, who was the head of the family, had a strong interest in this last family master who dared to express his thoughts in the main hall.

Previously, the future head of the Liu family, his attention had always been on the returning Yun Fan. His eyes full of killing intent reflected his desire to kill Yun Fan on the spot immediately, but with the appearance of Lu Weiwen, the thoughts of the future head of the Liu family suddenly inexplicably became involved in the banquet, this "Wendou" without gunsmoke, and was attracted by it.

"Tonight's feast was not in vain. Liu Fengchen said lightly.

"Does this kid mean that we are pretending to be stupid or that we are bullying the king?" Han Yu asked Xia Hui next to him, and Xia Hui seemed to be smiling.

Under the colorful lights, the green silk is like a dai, and the eyebrows and eyes are picturesque.

Tonight's Xia Hui did not dress as a man, as the only daughter of the Xia family, she rarely changed back to her daughter's body, put on a gorgeous dress with cyan sunflowers, and sat in the second place in the family.

She is the only woman at the family table tonight, and it can be said that a smile and a smile have touched the hearts of many people who have never seen her appear as a daughter, but with Lu Weiwen's appearance, these have gradually been put aside.

"I see it all. Xia Hui lifted his chin and his gaze fell on Liu Fengchen's wine glass, "Drink less." ”

Liu Fengchen ignored it and still poured himself a drink.

Yun Fan, who was located opposite the family seat and the first of the VIP seats, also had a strong interest in the scene in front of him, but out of his lack of understanding of the current situation in Dongji and the Shu Kingdom, Yun Fan chose to continue to watch. And set his eyes on the young head of the house.

Yun Ji, who was sitting alone on the throne, showed a rare smile after hearing Lu Weiwen's words. Her smile is like a blood rose blooming in the wind and snow, just a glance makes people unable to extricate themselves.

The arrogant Liu Fengchen under the throne, the coldness between his eyebrows melted into Yun Ji's intoxicating smile, holding the wine glass in his dangling hand, and for a while because of Yun Ji's smile, he forgot to drink all the liquor. At this time, Yun Ji's bright eyes seemed to be able to speak. And Lu Weiwen seems to be the only person in the hall tonight who can read her. Perhaps, it was precisely because of the appreciation cast between Yun Ji's eyebrows that Lu Weiwen was able to face everyone's ridicule without changing his face.

"I heard that Mu Jing, the founding emperor of the Ji Dynasty who has been praised for generations, received a lot of secret letters from the magnates of the previous dynasty on the eve of the attack on the imperial capital of the Ember Dynasty after the capture of Jingwei Pass, and these magnates promised that as long as Emperor Wu could maintain their position in the Ember Dynasty after the city was broken, they would join forces with Emperor Wu to witness the demise of the Ember Dynasty. They prepared the brocade box containing the gift of surrender in advance and hid it in their sleeves, and opened the gates of the city in the morning light and mist. Then the red dragon flag was planted on the wall of the imperial capital, and the once incomparably powerful Ember Dynasty ended its hundred years of glory in the hands of its own family. ”

Some courtiers and sons of the family turned extremely ugly after hearing Lu Wei's words. As if they were talking about them. However, not all people who understand the meaning of Lu Weiwen's words will choose to remain silent with an ugly look.

"Does the words of the head of the Lu family imply that there are ministers of the dead country among all of you, or are all ministers of the dead country?" In the civil official seat, an old minister slowly asked Lu Weiwen, and his words were mixed with breathless majesty.

Lu Weiwen: "If you haven't lost the country, how can you come to the ministers of the country." ”

Between the words, Lu Weiwen followed the voice to the Wenchen banquet to find, it turned out that the person who spoke was Lu You, Lord Lu, who strongly advocated catering to the Xia Kingdom in the marriage incident of the Xia Kingdom not long ago.

"If there is no minister who has lost his country, why should he be exhausted. ”

Lu You asked Lu Weiwen rhetorically, his tone was full of arrogance and disdain, and he did not treat Lu Weiwen as the head of a family at all, but it is true that with Lu You's current qualifications in the Shuguo, except for the four major families, no child of the family is worthy of the eyes of this patriarch of the Three Dynasties.

"Although there are no ministers who have lost the country, there are signs of the death of the country. ”

Lu Weiwen used a faint sentence to insinuate Lu You's previous advocacy of catering to the marriage of the Xia Kingdom, so that the Shu Kingdom almost became a vassal state of the Xia Kingdom, and as a result, the patriarch of the Three Dynasties was instantly enraged.

"Lu Weiwen, you are presumptuous!" Lu You leaned over, stretched out his withered hand tremblingly, and blamed Lu Weiwen, whose waist was as straight as a gun at this time, "Do you know who is being invited to tonight's banquet, how can you be so rampant in the palace?"

"Tonight's feast is for the future lord of the country. Therefore, according to the etiquette of this dynasty, Yu went to the banquet in person as the head of the Lu family. Lu Weiwen glanced at the ministers in the palace. In the end, his eyes fell on the Maison's seat. "I just don't know if your families are like fools, and they know it in their hearts. ”

"...... you" Lu You was speechless by Lu Weiwen's rhetorical question, he understood that this seemingly weak son, these words were intended to lead to trouble.

"This Lu Weiwen really dares to say anything. On the seat, Xia Hui poured wine for Han Ji. He cast an admiring glance at Lu Weiwen, but he didn't realize that Han Yu, who had been stunned, didn't speak.

"To put it mildly, a few words will lead to trouble, and now this group of pedantic ministers will dare to take his words again. Liu Fengchen said lightly, "If you take it, you can't offend us first." ”

"This orphan is kind of interesting. ”

Han Yu turned his head to look at Lu Weiwen.

Lu Weiwen smiled slightly and continued:

"In the dream of the lord of the country. Armed with swords, the enemy pushed open the gates in the mist. At the time of crisis, the courtiers learned that the monarch was confused, but they hid the brocade box in their sleeves and whispered one after another. He knew that the king was about to put his life in danger, but he did not stop him. Jump out of the dream, and see the palace after hearing the dream told by the lord of the country, but learn that the people of the country were killed, but turn a deaf ear, turn a blind eye, and learn that the lord of the country is worried but pretend to be worried, although the ancients often said that dreams and reality, such as inside and outside the mirror, but if you don't know how to think of danger in times of peace, the dream of today's lord will be a lesson for the world tomorrow. ”

In the main hall, all the ministers listened to it, and whispered at the table, but no one dared to step forward to answer, and their eyes all fell on the lonely woman on the throne.

The military general's seat, the general Qin Shen's eyes are like torches. Qin Shen whispered to his colleagues sitting next to him: "This head of the Lu family actually has a kind of anger in his heart that the son of the sitting family does not have. ”

"What General Qin means by 'qi'. The general next to him asked Qin Shen in doubt, and Qin Shen subconsciously clenched the wine glass in his hand.

"I cherish the arrogance of a man in my country. In just two sentences, it revealed the recognition of this long-cherished veteran of the country for Lu Weiwen. Qin Shen's gaze gradually deepened, as if he remembered his son whose life and death were still unknown, and in a blink of an eye, the old general turned his gaze to Yun Fan in the VIP seat, "It's going to change the sky." ”

"So, just ask Gu what else you haven't seen. After a moment of silence, Yun Ji asked from the main hall.

"So, what the lord of the country will see, and what he wants to see. Lu Weiwen calmly replied to Yun Ji's question.

Although the question was asked by Yun Ji, the answer was what she motioned to Lu Weiwen to tell some people. The so-called emperor's heart is like an abyss, but that's it.

The magnificent Jingyi Palace, in the question and answer between the royal family and the clan, ushered in the longest silence of the night, the drinker put down the wine glass, the food put down the chopsticks, the musician forgot to beat the chime piano, the dancing singer lost the music at that moment and forgot how to dance, the official suddenly panicked, the sweat beads of the big sweat soaked the brocade clothes, the palace people froze in place, I don't know whether to move, and how to move.

"Lu Weiwen. When the red lips opened lightly again, the faint anger in the words frightened the ministers in the palace. The courtiers bowed to the table without saying a word, and the children of the family sat down and followed suit. This scene startled the people in Hokuriku who were in the VIP seats.

Lu Weiwen is here. Lu Weiwen said neither humbly nor arrogantly, and there seemed to be a long-term depression between his eyebrows.

"Courage is commendable. Yun Ji raised her eyebrows and said, "Give the luminous cup." ”

"Thank you, Lord Ron. Lu Weiwen waved his hands and knelt down for a long time.

This reward was exchanged for the second silence in the Jingyi Hall tonight.

This is a glow-in-the-dark cup, but it's not an ordinary treatment. With this luminous cup, it can be equivalent to a national soldier, what is a national soldier? At present, there are only a handful of people in the country of Shu, who have this luminous cup.

Faced with the silence in this great hall, the woman on the throne suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed. After a moment of silence, she waved her sleeves and motioned for her ministers to be excused.

The sound of ritual music, in her gradually gathered smile, resounded in the Jingyi Palace, the ceremonial official wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead, and commanded the palace people to follow the steps and continue to be busy.

A new round of delicacies is served one after another in the sound of singing and dancing.

"Dian Xingcheng, Lu has not heard of it. Yun Fan remembered this name, and Gu Yina on the side reminded Yun Fan by the way: "It is said that he is the only family head who appeared at the banquet tonight. ”

"It's embarrassing. Yun Fan said with a headache.

At this time, he had already recovered from the coercion exerted by Liu Fengchen just now, and continued in a tone that had healed the scar and forgotten the pain, "All these years have passed, and the clan family of the Su Kingdom is still as annoying as before. ”

Gu Yina: "The clan of the state is testing the princely bearing. ”

"It's okay, at least the Lu clan of Star City Lu is not the same as them. Between the words, Yun Fan fell into a moment of contemplation: "Speaking of Dianxing City, I am quite familiar with it, when I was a child, I robbed the bride of someone else's family there, although it didn't work out." ”

Gu Yina was puzzled: "The prince has also been emotional?"

"I don't know the bride. At that time, I was young and ignorant, and I liked to pee with a few friends, to see who peed farther, and the person who lost wanted to rob someone else's bride to marry, but when it came to the competition, I didn't expect that I suddenly had a bad stomach, and I was deflated for a while, and I lost. ”

"......," Guina smiled awkwardly.

Yun Fan: "I saw you laughing more times today than in the previous year combined, I can't imagine that the frost beauty of the North Continent, the indifference on her face for many years will melt in the Bright Moon City of Dongji." ”

Gu Yina: "The North Continent is windy and sandy, don't dare to be easy to be sad and happy, a little careless, will provoke the wind and sand into the eyes, causing discomfort all day long." ”

Yun Fan listened and smiled.

"Now the three cities of Dianxing, Yaoguang, and Liuyun are all in the hands of Mo Guo, and these families sitting here should be either in Bright Moon City or Mirror Moon City now, but most of the ruins of Mirror Moon City are estimated to be in Bright Moon City. If I have the chance, I must personally visit this Lu Weiwen. He pondered while pouring wine, and his eyes kept falling on Lu Weiwen between words, as if he wanted to eat him.

"When the time comes, I will accompany the prince and the prince. Gu Yina suppressed the shyness in her heart and pretended to be serious. However, Yun Fan did not happen to her, so he said: "Okay."

......

After receiving the reward, Lu Weiwen immediately reaped the stammering, admiration and compensation of those who whispered at him at the previous moment. He just played on the spot, with a polite and slightly embarrassed smile and a few brief thanks.

Lu Weiwen, who had won the best of the audience tonight, inadvertently fell on the VIP seat opposite. This time, he saw Yun Fan, the future lord of the country, and the future lord of the country was also looking at him at the moment, and the two toasted each other across the red carpet and drank together. The next moment, the eyes of this handsome son secretly fell on the future lord of the country, an unknown North Continent beauty. As a result, he unexpectedly found that the beautiful woman was also looking at himself at this time.

This time, Gu Yina did not avoid Lu Weiwen's gaze again.

The morning star in the eyes of the young man seems to have been left behind under the teaser of fate. This morning star accidentally smashed the blue rock on the calm shore, and the gravel fell into the lake and sea on the shore, causing ripples one after another in the girl's heart, which could not be calmed down for a long time.

Lu Weiwen also didn't expect that at the night in the Yijing Palace, when he met Gu Yina for the first time, he just glanced at her one more time, and then completely fell into her eyes, and he couldn't escape from it in his life.
