For the domineering emperor who embarrassed her in public, Shu Yu's evil value suddenly reached the highest point, approaching Bai Che of the Tiger Clan, who seriously injured Xingwang at that time, and the Great Elder of the Fox Clan who killed her.
When she returned to her palace, she had been practicing swords, and none of the palace maids and eunuchs who served her dared to make a sound. Originally, most of the minions in this hall were spies placed by other concubines, and they were never snub to Situ Jingjing, Situ Jingjing was gentle, kind and naΓ―ve, to put it mildly, he was weak, and he was a gas bag that was softer than Shu Yu.
At this moment, she suddenly changed into a tough person, and those minions who bullied the weak and feared the hard turned into quails with shrunken heads and brains at the same time as they were puzzled.
Shu Yu is a person who is softer when it is soft, and harder when it is hard, and when she meets a gentle float like water, she has no temper at all, but now this domineering emperor ...... Sorry, Shu Yu said that she is never soft on people she hates.
The swordsmanship is exquisite, but this body is not strong, and after practicing for a while, I am out of breath. Shu Yu stopped, pestle the sword and think about what to do with the waiter later.
Did you castrate him directly or run first? But there should be some protective guards around the emperor, and this emperor, the setting of the original book is both civil and military, and her current body may not be able to beat others. If she runs away now, she is estimated to be stopped by the guards before she approaches the palace gate, the crowd tactics are not fun, didn't she and Fuwang have been planted in the crowd tactics before.
Thinking of this, Shu Yu felt uncomfortable, and continued to practice swords with a stiff face. She has a problem, whether she is nervous or unhappy or when she wants to pretend, she likes to keep her face tight, and in front of unfamiliar strangers, she is used to putting on a very bluffing and cold face. Only Xingwang can perceive her embarrassment under the surface.
It's time for her to go to bed, a group of minions, you pushed me and looked at her face and didn't dare to step forward, and finally Tongxiang trembled forward and said: "Niangniang, it's time to go to bed, do you want to take a bath, the emperor should be coming soon." β
Shu Yu didn't hear it, and the sword in his hand danced faster and faster, turning into an afterimage. She thought that if the emperor really dared to come strongly, she would fight hard, and she could be castrated if she could, and she couldn't run again. Like when she first crossed over a year ago to the Mengze Demon Realm, she was full of fear, and she was dedicated to playing the role of Tianfeng Jinyu, for fear of being discovered, but now, she has become much more willful. I've seen a lot of big scenes in Mengze, and she really has nothing to be afraid of now.
It's a pity that the emperor couldn't come, and he was stopped by Concubine Ning on the way. Concubine Ning is the girl who broke Shu Yu's bun at the dinner party, and was finally scared by Shu Yu and screamed, her behavior is undoubtedly revenge on Shu Yu.
Concubine Ning: If you want to get the emperor's favor, you dream!
Shu Yu: Well done! Kudos to the girl!
This was a real surprise, but the emperor himself did not come, and sent a little eunuch to deliver a box. Shu Yu picked up the letterhead on the box, and wrote a sentence on it with powerful strokes: "If you want me to release those Wu Yueguo assassins, I will take the initiative to serve me." β
Then I opened the box, and there were a few bloody fingers inside. There were palace maids screaming around, Shu Yu calmly closed the box, and went back to the palace to take a bath and sleep.
Hahaha! She is not the original Situ Jingjing, she has even seen countless demon corpses and so many strange monster corpses, can these fingers still scare her? As for the threatening letter, she didn't even bother with it. Does she still want to cry like Situ Jingjing in the original book, saying that it was her people who couldn't be left alone, and then obediently threw herself into the emperor's arms and was snapped by him? Just thinking about it makes me sick to my stomach.
It's better for her to find a way to meet the national teacher, this kind of master usually has a peculiar personality, maybe he can really agree to help her find someone?
The national teacher lives in Mingyuetai, at the junction of the inner palace and the outer palace, if you want to go there, Shu Yu wants to go out of the harem where the concubine is located, there is a Canglang gate to go to Mingyuetai, but there are people guarding there every day. Even after that gate, the Mingyue Platform where the national teacher is located is said to be a little weird, there are no palace attendants in it, only the national teacher lives in a simple place, but without the permission of the national teacher, no one can enter that door.
Shu Yu went to the South Garden of the Imperial Garden early in the morning of the second day, because it was relatively close to Mingyuetai, and she could still see Canglang Gate, so she wanted to explore the terrain.
It's just that before he reached the vicinity of Canglang Gate, Shu Yu caught a glimpse of a tall figure in green clothes walking on the path not far away. The side face that swept between the heavy flower branches shocked Shu Yu's heart when he accidentally saw it, and then he was full of surprise.
Ignoring the call of Tongxiang behind her, she brushed the flower branches and chased after the figure. That's hope! It's a floating hope! Shu Yu didn't think about why Fuwang suddenly appeared here at the moment, and the sweetheart she was looking for suddenly appeared in front of her, she was just happy and didn't know what to do, and the previous irritability disappeared completely.
The figure in green clothes in front of him was obviously not far away, but Shu Yu just couldn't catch up, seeing that the figure turned around a cluster of flowers and trees and disappeared, Shu Yu couldn't help but shout: "Floating hope!" β
She rushed around the corner, and before she could see the scene in front of her, she felt a trip under her feet and fell forward.
"Be careful."
An incomparably familiar voice sounded in his ears, and at the same time, Shu Yu felt like he had bumped into a warm embrace. Someone pulled her up by the waist, held her shoulders and waited for her to stand up, and let her go very politely. The warm palm brushed Shu Yu's wrist, making her feel like crying.
But when she looked at him pitifully with red eyes, she found that the man standing in front of her did not look the same as Fuwang, and his face was only five points similar, but his temperament was very similar, gentle and self-controlled, and when he looked at her, his eyes seemed to be filled with a pool of peach blossom water.
Shu Yu was a little afraid to confirm it, and asked cautiously: "Fuwang?" β
The man in Tsing Yi smiled at her, took a step back and arched his hand: "Under the son of Master Ye, Ye Linhuai, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, I was offended in a hurry, and I ask Concubine Jing not to blame, Niangniang is fine?" β
Shu Yu stood there looking at him, his heart gradually sinking from the sudden surprise, and the frustration and pain that came even more than when he didn't see him just now. The feeling of extreme disappointment made her unable to help the astringency in her eyes, and she could only look down at the petals that had fallen to the ground and been trampled on under her feet.
A plain white handkerchief appeared in front of her, and the man who called himself Ye Linhuai said softly, "Please use it." β
Shu Yu hesitated for a while, stretched out his hand, but instead of taking the handkerchief, he directly held his hand. At this time, she can't care if this person will feel that she is changing. state, I just want to verify - when she accidentally threw herself into his arms just now, the reassuring feeling is indeed something that only floating hope can give her. She wondered if she was hallucinating because she was too excited.
Suddenly grabbed his wrist, Ye Linhuai was stunned, but he didn't pull out his hand, but still asked gently: "Concubine Jing, but what's wrong?" β
"You're hopeful, aren't you?" Shu Yu held his hand and didn't let go, she really felt that this person felt very familiar to her, especially when she touched it herself.
"I don't know the person Concubine Jing said. Moreover, the emperor summoned his ministers to summon him, and he has been delayed for a long time, so I don't know what else is going on with Concubine Jing? If nothing else, the minister will go first. Ye Linhuai said unhurriedly, looking at Shu Yu with a smile.
Under this kind of gaze as if looking at a stranger, Shu Yu had to let go of his hand, and once again began to wonder if he missed Fuwang too much, so he would regard this person who was similar to Fuwang as him. If you think about it, it's unlikely that the hope will be here.
"Offended." Shu Yu said astringently, and when he saluted and left, she felt that all her strength was gone, and she sat down on the stone pier on the side of the road dejectedly.
Tong Xiang just found it, looked at the two of them with a frightened expression, and then was uneasy for fear of being seen. Seeing that Ye Linhuai was finally gone at this moment, she hurriedly walked to Shu Yu's side and said, "Niangniang, what are you doing just now!" If it is seen, the emperor will blame it! β
Neither of them paid attention, and after the departing Ye Linhuai walked out for a while, he looked back at Shu Yu with an unpredictable expression.
Shu Yu was in a daze, and she thought back to this Ye Linhuai's identity. The son of Ye Taishi, that Ye Taishi, she still has some impressions, it seems that she is a small villain in the original book, who does not deal with the emperor, and has always wanted to bring down the emperor and let the third prince take the throne. However, isn't the old man infertile, the concubines of Manchu don't have a single child, and now what is going on with Ye Linhuai, who has never appeared in the original book like the national teacher?
Not long after Situ Jing came to Tianyun Kingdom, there were still many things he didn't know, and after Shu Yu found that he couldn't find any useful memories, he grabbed Tongxiang next to him and asked, "That Ministry of Rites Shangshu Ye Linhuai, do you know about him?" β
Tongxiang's face was full of bitterness, "Niangniang, you can't be like this, although Lord Ye is indeed a handsome son, but if he is ...... by the emperor"
"Say!" Shu Yu interrupted her.
Tong Xiang could only whisper: "Lord Ye is a famous son in the imperial capital, I don't know how many girls dream of being favored by Lord Ye, Lord Ye won the name of the champion when he was sixteen years old, and he was very important to the emperor, praising him for his unparalleled strategy." But I heard that Lord Ye has a strange disease, it is said that it was brought from his mother's womb, he occasionally suddenly becomes unconscious, and he will wake up every few days, sometimes he doesn't seem to be able to hear others, only in a trance, saying that he has a soul loss. β
Shu Yu thought in her eyes, and after a while, her eyes became firm again, and she looked through the branches to see the tall spire in the distance, which was the Mingyuetai Tower where the national teacher was, and it was said that the national teacher lived in it, and she was going to ask this national teacher.
As for how to get there, Shu Yu decided to explore the bright moon platform at night.
That night, Shu Yu, who was dressed as a little palace maid, walked through the imperial garden and came to the vicinity of Mingyue Terrace. Relying on the vigilance she exercised, she really avoided several waves of night patrols and successfully came to the wall near Canglang Gate.
With the demon body, which is used to the demon clan, he suddenly turned back into a human, and he was really a little unaccustomed, and it was really difficult to become frugal from luxury, and he couldn't climb up the wall of such height. Shu Yu gritted his teeth, tried a few times, and finally struggled over the wall and ran towards the bright moon platform.
There were no patrols near the bright moon platform at all, it was pitch black, only some lights on the highest floor of the tower. The high wall encloses the bright moon platform in it, and Shu Yu begins to climb over the wall as just now, but she only discovers a problem when she climbs over the wall. Inside the bright moon platform, there is only one building, which is the tower, and around the tower, there is water.
Without a bridge, without a boat, would she swim across?
As soon as he thought about it, he saw a small boat approaching the shore, and the boat was empty, only a lantern, and the lantern opened his mouth and said, "The national teacher invites the guests to meet in the tower." β
Shu Yu remembered the legend that the national teacher could resist the demon, and the talking lantern in front of him was not a demon, it was like that kind of small spirit thing. So these non-human creatures in this world have anything to do with Mengze's? Moreover, the national teacher deserves to be a national teacher, and the moral quality of the god stick is really good, and it is very easy to pretend to be a ghost~
Be careful to get on the boat, the ship itself will sail towards the tower, it is weirdly tight, and it really makes people feel a little hairy in the back. Shu Yu thought that he would see how the national teacher asked him to help find someone later, so he calmed down and began to be a little nervous. She got off the boat and approached the tower, and as soon as she entered the door, the tower was lit up, and a voice from unknown sources said, "The national teacher is praying for blessings, please go upstairs for a while." β
Lights were also lit on both sides of the staircase facing us, as if to show directions. Shu Yu glanced back at the lake outside and walked towards the stairs. It wasn't until I went up to the third floor that the voice sounded again, "Please wait here." β
Shu Yu is located like a reception room, and it is a bit like a library, because there are tables, chairs, tea sets, and tea sets on one side, and there are many bookshelves and books on the other side. Shu Yu sat on the chair for a while, but he didn't see the national teacher appear, and the whole building was quiet.
It was as if a strong wind had suddenly blown outside, blowing a window open and slamming against the wall.
Shu Yu was startled, looked over there, and happened to see a book on the bookshelf being blown to the ground with a soft click.
She hesitated for a moment, but then stood up and closed the blown window. Before closing the window, she glanced out, and in just a few moments, the sky had changed outside, and dark clouds had gathered in the sky, as if it was going to rain.
After closing the window, she walked over to the bookshelf to pick up the book that had fallen. The book was spread out, Shu Yu picked it up and wanted to close it and put it back on the bookshelf, but after a glance, he couldn't help but stop moving.
On the side of the book, a man is depicted, covered in blood, stepping on a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, holding a human head in his hand, and the smile on his mouth is cold and cruel, which makes people feel terrified at first sight. But what attracted Shu Yu's attention was the text next to it.
ββThe original body of the demon lord was a fox clan and a half-demon, and then he would fall into the demon due to fate, and after becoming a demon, he became ferocious, and slaughtered the demons of the fox clan frantically, causing them to exterminate the clan, and the other four clans also suffered countless casualties...... was forced into the Burial Abyss, but he never died, but instead cultivated to destroy the Burial Abyss...... Mengze civil strife, after a hundred years, the four clans were divided and opposed, and countless demon clans were unbearable and cruel to the demon lord, and retreated to the human realm...... The demons led by the demon lord chased and killed the human realm, causing the living beings to be miserable...... Heaven does not tolerate it, and the heavenly punishment is lowered, and the Lord of Ten Thousand Demons is suppressed, and he is imprisoned in the Doom Mountain, so that he suffers from the whipping of his soul every day, and he cannot be liberated......
Shu Yu's whole body trembled, turned a page, and saw only one line of words:
- More than 1,000 years ago.
