Chapter 39: The Feast III

The lights in Jiankang City are flowing and the flow of people is bustling. The same lights in the palace are as bright as day, except for the bustle of the market, so no matter how brilliant you are, you will fall into empty loneliness, like a dusty painting, even the light has lost its vitality, like a color smeared on the canvas, and there is no longer a little aura.

Wu Yan sat on his knees against the eaves pillar, the sky was a color of gray, the thin clouds at the beginning had long since disappeared, and a lightning bolt occasionally lit up in the distance, brightening the thick night clouds layer by layer. It was quiet in the tower, and she was stunned. After that night's banquet, a holy decree arrived at the tower the next day, ordering herself to be the soul daughter of the people, and to go to the dissolved water with the minister of disaster relief.

She knows very well that the people here strictly abide by the rules and regulations, act according to the law, sit in the rules, move in moderation, and speak tabooly, men, women and children, without exception. A person's exposed behavior has corresponding rules and regulations, and even I wish I could single out people's inner thoughts to list and study, analyze and divide, and agree on norms.

She didn't want to go and couldn't dissolve the water, because she could imagine how difficult it would be, these people who were assigned to go represented not only the royal family and the court of Dayong, but the emperor failed to dissolve the water in person, so he had to become the emperor's eyes and ears thousands of miles away, to understand what had happened, what to do or what to control for the emperor.

So that night, when answering Emperor Dayong's question, she said that she was not curious, unwilling to go against her will, unwilling to blindly obey and obey orders, she was a person from the Tianshan Mountains, she was free, she didn't want to be a bystander and a conformist, but she didn't expect that in the end, the emperor of Dayong still chose herself. In fact, in the end, she thinks she is free, when did she really be free. When she was in the Tianshan Mountains, she studied and practiced and forbade going down the mountain, including now that the identity of the Youmin Lingnu has become a hot potato, she has never been free, even yearning, it is just a fantasy, who knows that after getting it, it will really be as she thinks? She laughed at herself, and suddenly her face was cold, and the wind and rain sounded, and it began to rain again. Since that night's banquet, the rainy weather of summer has also come, and Wu Ying has been staying in the tower for longer and longer, just sitting alone behind closed doors, and she occasionally can't find a chance to speak, no different from not being there.

She looked at the tower again, the lights on the tower were not extinguished day and night, and when she looked through the window from afar, she happened to see the shadow of a young man dressed as a young man. And the eagle kite Xiaobai is standing on the window lattice, showing a sharp eye in the dark branches and leaves, like a hunter looking for prey.

What did Xiao Bai do when he took Xiao Bai to the Su Tower? Could it be that he wanted Xiao Bai to send a message back to the Tianshan Mountain? Thinking of the Tianshan Mountain, and then contacting the Holy Decree, Wu Yan's face became a little bitter, and he went up to the tower softly in three steps and two steps.

As soon as he was close to the wall of the tower, he heard a young man's voice in the tower, which was the voice of Xuan Qi, "Lord Witch, Wu Yan actually left the Tianshan Mountain without permission, right?"

Wu Ying didn't open his mouth to answer, but Ying Qi should have received Wu Ying's answer, Wu Yan saw him twisting his eyebrows sideways with a puzzled look, and then saw that his expression had already changed, and he was angry, and only said, "Wu Yan went down the mountain without permission, violating the laws of the Tianshan Mountain, and the witch should let her go back to the Tianshan Mountain at that time." She shouldn't have stayed here, these disasters shouldn't have happened!"

If he hadn't taken himself to the banquet that night, how could what had happened later. However, even Wu Yan herself forgot that the source of everything was caused by herself, and if she hadn't left Tianshan without permission, these later things would naturally not have happened.
