Chapter 9: Shapeshifting (1)
The crimson palace dizzle gently swept the ink and blue brick floor, and a gust of wind rose, still looking like a plain cliff. "Brush", the pearl screen is leisurely brittle.
"This is already the fifth. Rou Dai gently stroked her temples, and Xu Yan said slowly, "Count it carefully, and those who died one after another were all my ministers of the humerus of Dongliao." His speed of speech was not slow or urgent, his phoenix eyes were half-narrowed, and he was as elegant as an afternoon cat licking and scratching.
In the corner of the curtain, a blue and white porcelain incense burner decorated with Western Regions paintings sits steadily, and the incense in the stove is burning vigorously.
The incense is a natural mixture of dark and light sandalwood. Everything is no different, but because of such a somewhat permeating topic, it is clearly different.
Yu Kun glanced at the slightly lazy Rou Dai, picked up the topic casually, and continued to ask the young general: "How did Lord Zhang die?" He sat next to Wang, almost parallel.
The young general arched his hand: "Return to the governor." Master Zhang desperately banged his head against the tree against the wall, shouting that he was guilty, and his strength was suddenly amazing, and whoever approached him would be beaten away by him without accident. In this way, until the head broke and the blood flowed, and the seven orifices smoked, the flames ignited from nowhere on Zhou's body, and the whole person was gradually burned to black charcoal, and Shi Cai died...... It was extremely painful to die. He raised his eyes and added.
"Oh?" Yu Kun said to himself, raising his eyebrows, "Compared to the previous adults, it is very similar. ”
Yukun said to herself, Rou Dai agreed. He lowered his eyes for a moment, but said nothing.
"The princess of the Great Chu Kingdom has arrived-"
Finally, the palace people broke the slightly cramped silence with a tall and broad call, and successfully brought back the thoughts of everyone present.
The princess of Chu frowned, obviously, the incense in the hall smelled a little sweet to her, which made her very uncomfortable. But Hua Jing soon burst into laughter.
From the depth to the moon-shaped carved door, it is only a few steps. With such a short distance, she felt that she had already completed half of her life, as if it showed the fate of Canggu, so that she was destined to be entangled with the Dongliao Emperor Palace for the rest of her life, and it would be difficult to break free!
It turned out that there was such a heaviness in her brain that she couldn't earn, which made her inexplicably exhausted and overwhelmed.
"Enough, I know this situation is making you feel high, but don't put any more pressure on me...... Don't. She said quietly in her heart, this self-talk was a little strange. And behind her, she followed Qingyuan, who was wearing a simple uniform.
Qingyuan went to the worship party, but bumped into Yukun beside Wang when he raised his head.
Yu Kun also put Qingyuan into his eyes at the same time.
The two were stunned for a moment, then realized that they just smiled at each other, which was regarded as a greeting.
"Your Majesty......" lowered his eyelids, a shallow call like a song of the March warbler, and the flowers were enchanting. In the emptiness, the woman had to raise her forehead slightly, but she was facing the flat diamond flower realm with magnificent rubies embedded in the center of the snow wall. She was happy in her heart, and obviously very satisfied with her image at the moment.
Only this peerless moment shocked everyone in the hall. Including the woman herself.
Needless to say, this woman's beauty is exquisite, but the king of Eastern Liao, who sits high above the main seat, and a tall and pine-like attendant next to her are also amazing.
The flowing veins of heavenly light are sprinkled around, and these three people seem to shine all the colors in the heaven and earth, and collect all the aura, the beauty is irresistible, but they are comparable, and each has its own unique charm. For example, the woman's seduction, the king's demonic spirit, and Yu Kun's demeanor are tall and heroic...... Yes, the king and the quasi-new queen are too beautiful and feminine, and in comparison, the lines and aura of the Yukun man are more and more obvious.
"Coming?" The silence was only very short, Rou Dai slowly raised her eyes, a peaceful greeting, and her body did not move.
At this time, the king seemed approachable. He was freshly dressed and angry, gorgeous and unparalleled, and sat down on his knees on the embroidered mat of the wormwood, and raised his eyes to her and his wife kindly.
"Yes. The woman smiled, then straightened up and walked in front of the king, and sat down in her skirt.
The princess of Chu is of extremely noble birth, and even if she is about to be the queen, she has never needed to be too polite with the king of Eastern Liao. This Hong is noble, she knows: "Your Majesty, are you deliberating?" before asking, even she herself really felt ridiculous, and after a while, she retracted her words and turned around, "Your Majesty doesn't want to hear it, how did the concubine come all the way?" This tone seemed very intimate, even if the two of them were clearly only seeing each other for the first time.
"Your Majesty, the minister retires. A little voice suddenly rose in the air, such as soft, and appropriate.
Chasing the owner of this voice, her eyes were shy. In a flicker, I saw that it was the governor of the Praetorian Guard standing upright beside the king, or whether he had only gotten up after he had come in.
In such a situation, it seems that she is an outsider...... It's funny.
However, it was not the new queen who was slightly embarrassed, and Qingyuan, who followed the woman all the way in, was also embarrassed. It was clear that he had come to see the king, but after standing for so long, the king did not even give him a chance to speak. Qingyuan pursed the corners of his mouth, and had to wait quietly.
"Wait. Rou Dai's smiling gaze wandered on Yu Kun, and she raised her hand, "After the queen retires, the governor will ...... with this little road chief" Finally, he glanced sideways at Qingyuan, and his gaze fell on Yu Kun again, "The lonely king has his own details." He didn't forget the things he had to tell him to follow, such as the strange murders that had repeatedly occurred in the Eastern Liao Kingdom.
After receiving the king's order, Yukun leaned forward and leaned forward, which was considered to be the answer. Qingyuan, who was standing not far away, also hurriedly leaned over, raised his hand and performed a Taoist ritual to the king.
The king lowered his eyes and forgave him.
Outside the hall, there was a palace lady holding a silver plate Shi Shiran walking around, sprinkling various petals along the way. The rain of colorful flowers broke through the clear sky, and the wisps of fragrance broke into the nasal cavity, and the empty artistic conception rose.
Rou Dai took turns to a comfortable sitting position and handed a gesture to the woman.
The woman understood, pursed her lips shallowly, and her soft tone was good enough to hear the harsh winter ice that could melt thousands of miles of consolidation: "I am the second princess of the Great Chu Kingdom, and my name is Phantom." "She's shallow.
Phantom, like phantom and empty, is a good name for the ethereal fragrance...... Qingyuan thought secretly.
Without waiting for Wang Kaiyan to speak, Yu Zhi picked up the small cup and took a sip of tea, and continued with such a nice tone: "Earlier, my sister died of illness, and my father was grieved when he heard the news. She paused slightly, "But since the marriage contract with Dongliao has been reached, why can there be a reason to regret it? Therefore, I was sent here to marry together, continue my sister's previous path, and lay a foundation for the friendship between my Dachu and Dongliao for ten thousand years." ”
The gradually cooling tea smoke left an invisible mist in the air, and Rou Dai said: "Great Chu State, it's really sincere." The corners of his mouth raised a plausible arc, and this seemingly simple sentence sounded less than that simple.
There are words in the king's words, and Phantom naturally knows it.
She raised her finger and put a strand of green silk behind her ear: "Oh. "Not humble or arrogant, slow and leisurely," when the father sent his concubines to re-enter the Eastern Liao, he originally brought people and horses and a rich dowry. But I never thought that when the team traveled to the border between the two countries, they suddenly encountered a group of border people. When we finally got rid of the thieves, we didn't want to encounter tigers on the road around Qingcheng Mountain...... There are countless tigers and cliff climbers, and the rest of the entourage fled and died, and the few loyal ones gradually separated from me. I ran away like that, and with the blessing of the emperor, I met the governor who went out to investigate the case. As he spoke, he raised his eyes and glanced at Yu Kun, who was silent, "With the protection of the governor, the concubines can enter the palace safely...... Yes, it is well rewarded to the governor. The last sentence contains half true and half false. Somehow, when Yukun heard it, he always felt a little cold and disdainful.
The king ignored her no more, and bowed his head and flipped through the several copies of the case.
The winding and rugged corridor path outside the main hall, far and away, the mournful silk bamboo and the familiar tune resounded, it was a song "Return". Whimpering, the lonely and desolate broken gut Qiang flute in the north of the Saisha Desert......
