Chapter 194: Star Sacrifice City
"Master Mingtu...... Order the emperor? Xue Ying felt very incredible, "Why?" No, I mean, why? Even if she is the emperor's aunt, even if she is known as the princess of national fortune, she can't give orders to the emperor, right? ”
"Why, why? I'm also curious. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info" Xi Xi sighed, "but that's all I've heard so far." In short, Ganxiao Temple is a taboo for the royal family and the imperial court, and Princess Yunyang is a taboo among taboos. Aren't you from the Temple of Thanksgiving Piety? Supposedly you know more than I do, right? ”
"I really don't know." Xue Ying was so shocked, she lowered her head and covered her forehead, which began to ache faintly, feeling that the fog in front of her was lifted one layer after another, as if there would be no end to it. "I don't dare to ask, I always feel that these questions will become a dagger and stick in Master Mingtu's heart."
"You're just too soft-hearted to deserve to be kept in the dark to this day. Since the emperor had the courage to disobey the will of the former empress dowager to inquire about Princess Yunyang, it shows that he has rebelled against Princess Yunyang's ability to manipulate the imperial power. As Princess Yunyang, he probably doesn't dare to do anything to her, but if he knows about your relationship with Princess Yunyang, in order to limit Princess Yunyang's influence, he will definitely be the first to attack you. Did you almost enter the ghost gate? ”
"I know," Xue Ying covered her mouth and coughed a few times, "so I lied in front of the emperor." "Before the true identity of Master Mingtu was revealed, she already had a faint speculation, so when the emperor knocked on the side about the Ganxiao Temple and Master Mingtu, her first reaction was to pretend to be stupid, and then made up a lie.
"I wish you could hide it. But now that you know your master's identity, you can always ask for clarification when you go back, right? She is a monk princess, why can she order the emperor to do what he doesn't want to do, I am also curious about this. ”
Xue Ying didn't say anything. Now these people outside don't know yet, Master Mingtu ...... It will never be possible to have the opportunity to answer her questions in person.
Moreover, Master Mingtu asked her to swear allegiance to a stranger before falling asleep. Thinking of the appearance of that strange young man, Xue Ying's heart throbbed inexplicably.
Who is he? Master Mingtu why did she obey him? What is he going to do?
Xi Xi stretched out his hand and shook it in front of her eyes: "What are you doing in a daze?" Hurry up and find a way to eliminate the emperor's misunderstanding of you, otherwise you will have many restrictions on your actions in the future. ”
Xue Ying hooked her lips a little weakly: "As long as I am not involved with the powerful people in Anjing City, the emperor will not continue to deepen his suspicion of me." So far, the only suspicious one is Lan Geng, but you also know that we had a marriage contract before, and now we have the eldest sister as a buffer, so it will be fine. ”
"Then why did you look so worried?"
"It's fine." Xue Ying prevaricated and changed the topic, "How is your cooperation with the Lan family going?" ”
Xi Xi raised his eyebrows: "It's okay, the specific result depends on how effective it is against the Fu family this time." You've come just in time today, and I'll leave tomorrow. ”
"So fast? It's not over yet! ”
"Our mother and son are a family together, where is it not the New Year? After solving the matter of the Fu family, I want to take him to the Star Sacrifice City to apprentice. ”
"Apprenticeship?"
"When the child is older, he must find a master to learn something useful, right? Could it be that you have relied on the skills you secretly taught him to get through this life? ”
"I didn't sneak around...... Forget it, I can't talk about you. However, what is Star Worship City? Why haven't I heard of it? ”
"I don't know, it's said to be a mysterious town built on a mountain cliff. I heard that there was an old man who was more than a hundred years old there, and he had taught five apprentices in his life, and one became the leader of the martial arts alliance; One has become a famous Hongru from all over the world; One is rich in business and reaches the world, and the other is in the court until the official worships the prime minister......"
Xue Ying counted and asked, "What about the other one?" ”
"There is also a little apprentice who went crazy and killed all four senior brothers."
"......" Xue Ying swallowed, "Are you going to let Xuan Xuan worship such a master?" ”
"I just want to try it, after all, the last time the old man appeared was more than twenty years ago, and I don't know if he is alive or dead. Don't you think such a master is quite interesting? ”
"I don't know if he's funny or not, I just know that your mother is funny and very different. Don't you really think this choice is too risky? ”
"If you want to teach him well, you have to harden your heart." Xi Xi's tone was lonely, "I don't have a choice." ”
"I'm not against your approach," Xue Ying said softly, "It's just that people in the rivers and lakes are not easy to mess with, you must be careful." ”
"Of course we will be careful. You're facing no less problems than we are right now, so worry more about your own business. ”
"Alas, the days go too slowly. But in just a few months, so much has happened, and I'm a little tired. Xue Ying lay on the table, looking extremely tired, "I really want to go back to Jiuquan Villa." ”
"Want to escape? It's too wretched! Xi Xi scolded first, but Xue Ying didn't react, and then she realized that the situation was wrong, "What's wrong with you?" ”
Xue Ying didn't look up, but coughed violently, Xi Xi used to pull her up, but Xue Ying pushed her away violently, and spit out all the medicine she drank today, coughing while spitting, looking very embarrassed.
"Hey, how did you do that?" Xi Xi angrily held her up and shouted, "Come on, go and ask for a doctor!" ”
"No, ahem!" Xue Ying grabbed her, "I sneaked here from the medical hall next door, just send me back." "The excuse for her coming out was to see a doctor, and besides, the matter of seeing the past must be kept secret.
"Do you care about this at this time?"
"Ahem, there's no way," Xue Ying smiled bitterly, "It's destined to be a fate...... Ahem, ahem! ”
On the other side, the people in the study suddenly stopped flipping through the books and stared at the back of their hands quietly. Sure enough, after a while, the back of the white and thin hand suddenly began to spread and seep black lines.
The man lowered his eyes, put down the book, and somewhat carelessly took out the dagger and scraped the palm, allowing the black and purple blood to drip to the floor, and then white smoke rose.
"Master!" The Han guard happened to crash in, and was stunned when he saw this, "Another seizure?" ”
"No problem." Not only the back of his hand, but even his neck began to faintly fill with black air, but the man's voice was always calm, "What's wrong?" ”
"Miss Xue San is seriously ill."
A cold light flashed in the man's eyes, and he frowned slightly and looked at his hands, as if he remembered something important.
The Han guard asked, "Do you want to ask Old Lady She to come over and have a look?" ”
"No, too many coincidences are easy to make people suspicious, especially at this time, anyone who has anything to do with the court should stay as far away from her as possible."
"Yes, the subordinates retired."
