144 Episode 144 Letter from Chu Ling
Seeing that the New Year is approaching, the deserted Mei Yuan is also lively, Ji Yikui is making trouble to help Ji Xia Mo's Mei Yuan hang lanterns, Ji Xia Mo told the slave not to let her fall, and let her make trouble. ΡΡΡ.(vii) (ix) x.S.ΡΠΎΠΌ The update is so fast.
Outside the window, the plum 'flowers' are dotted in the ice and snow like rouge, reflecting the emerald green bamboo in front of the corridor, which is very funny.
Ji Xia Mo sat in front of the window bookcase, with a talisman pen dipped in a fine smash in his hand, copying the heavenly book talisman. Xu is uneasy, and he lost half a dish of cinnabar, but there were very few formed talismans.
"Drawing a talisman requires full attention." Lou Yin leaned against the window, and the silver wire in his palm restrained Ji Xiamo's talisman.
Ji Xia Mo stared at the yellow talisman for a while, put the talisman pen down and sighed. "The palace banquet is approaching, but the anxiety is getting worse day by day."
"It is inconvenient for mortal cultivators to mix their hands." Lou Yin's expression was indifferent.
Ji Xiamo pinched the cinnabar and grinded it on his fingertips, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, but there was no smile, "Lou Yin has no worries in the world, but I have a lot of bonds." Although I want to idle the clouds and wild cranes, I can't cut them and keep them 'messy'. β
Lou Yin lifted his eyelids and looked at Ji Xiamo's gentle side face, and a different 'color' flashed under his eyes. If he didn't care, how could he be willing to stay here. β
"My father's court is the prime minister, how can he be alone in the battle for the heir." Ji Xia Mo said worriedly with cold tea. "Thinking about the bloody seizure in the annals of history, I feel more and more frightened."
"Feng Lingchen is the crown prince." Lou Yin vaguely meant to comfort Ji Xiamo.
Ji Xia Mo let out a sarcastic laugh in his throat, "The royal 'yin' is treacherous, and the new emperor is not stepping on the corpse when he ascends the throne." Feng Lingchen's 'temperament' is gentle and not good at planning, he usually likes to dance and 'get' ink, if he is ruthless in estimating that Feng Yufei is stronger than him. β
"You have to be partisan." Lou Yin asked.
"I have no intention of entangling in it, and it has nothing to do with me who can sit on the throne." Ji Xiamo's expression was indifferent.
"Brother." Ji Yikui stood outside the window with a lantern to show Ji Xiamo.
Ji Xiamo looked at Ji Yikui with a gentle smile, "It's so good-looking." β
"I'll hang it in front of the porch, so that the plum garden won't be dark at night." Ji Yikui smiled sweetly.
"It's cold in the snow, be careful, don't freeze." Ji Xiamo handed the pastries on the plate to Ji Yikui, Ji Yikui pinched a piece of pastry and ate it, shaking her head with a smile.
"Childe." Aoki came in and saluted, then took out the letterhead and handed it to Ji Xiamo. "There's a letter from Childe."
Catching the letterhead handed by Aoki, Ji Xiamo waved his hand to let Aoki leave. The handwriting on the sealed letterhead was sharp, and there was a hidden killing aura at the end of the letter. 'Ji Xia Mo personally opened'
"This is Chu Lingyun's handwriting." Ji Xia Mo's face was surprised.
Three years ago, Chu Lingyu sent a letter asking Ji Xiamo to find the missing Fang Lin Jun. Ji Xiamo drew a tracking talisman and gave it to Chu Lingyu, three years have passed in the blink of an eye, and I don't know why Chu Lingyu sent a letter this time.
Ji Xia Mo opened the letterhead suspiciously, looked at the letter mentioned in Chu Lingyu's letter, and his expression gradually changed from surprise to smile.
After not seeing Ji Xiamo's real smile for a long time, Lou Yin walked up to Ji Xiamo and asked, "What did the letter say?" β
"Chu Ling chases his wife in the rivers and lakes, and a lover eventually becomes a family." Ji Xiamo smiled and put the letter away. "After the New Year, Chu Ling's tryst will bring Fang Lin Jun to visit me in the imperial city."
"That's good." Chu Lingyun and Fang Lin Jun are friends of Ji Xiamo, and their coming to the imperial city should be beneficial to Ji Xiamo's condition.
After the ranking of the famous list of rivers and lakes, there is no gold list in the reorganization of rivers and lakes. Worry-free Valley Fang Lege Jianghu was removed, although the injury of Si Fu Jing from the nine 'gates' was healed, his mood was not as good as before, as if he had suddenly aged a lot, and the nine 'gates' were now Si Yue was in charge.
Chu Ling's methods are ruthless, and in a short period of time he expands his power to control the rivers and lakes, and now the rivers and lakes are unified, and the entire rivers and lakes are firmly held in the palm of Chu Ling's hand, and the people in the rivers and lakes are all looking forward to Chu Ling's ghost.
Although he knew that Chu Ling was clumsy, he didn't know that he was so obscure. Chu Lingyun's ruthless decision made Ji Xiamo stunned, just like a hungry wolf suddenly taking off his sheepskin and 'showing' his ferocious fangs.
Even if Chu Lingyu was 'treacherous' and deceitful, Ji Xiamo had no intention of retaliating. Chu Lingyu has a huge control of the rivers and lakes, and although Chu Lingyu pretended to be crazy and stupid when he once 'intersected', Ji Xiamo knew that Chu Lingyu really wanted to treat him as a brother.
Everyone has lies and secrets, and he often deceives others, although Chu Lingyun concealed that he was a little angry, he would not part ways with Chu Lingyun.
Only the officers and soldiers are allowed to set fires and the people are not allowed to light the lamps, Ji Xiamo does not feel that he is very special, friends get along with each other and brothers 'make friends', no one is superior to whom.
Ji Xiamo stared out the window, and suddenly said in silence, "Do you know where Yin Li is?" β
Lou Yin was slightly stunned, and Ji Xiamo's inquiry made him a little at a loss. After the attack on Mo Di from the Nine 'Gates', Ji Xia Mo never mentioned Yin Li again, Lou Yin didn't know if Ji Xia Mo resented Yin Li for concealing Mo Di's existence, but since this matter was Ji Xia Mo's taboo, Lou Yin had no intention of asking.
"After I woke up from a serious injury, Yin Li's contract with me was broken." Ji Xiamo's expression was flat, as if he was talking about someone else's business.
"It should be a forced deed." Lou Yin paid attention to Ji Xiamo's expression and replied indifferently.
"What are the consequences?"
"Yin Li's body was severely injured, and he regained his Void Spirit Body again." Lou Yin withdrew his gaze with a cold expression. "It's her own fault, don't think about it anymore."
Yin Li knew that Mo Di intended Jin Wuji, but he still deliberately concealed it. If you want to say that there is a resentment against Xia Mo, if Yin Li can tell him frankly, maybe he and Jin Wuji will not part.
He regarded Yin Li as a close friend, but Yin Li hurt him the most. But if you think about it, Mo Di is her obsession to become a charmer, and she has only known Yin Li for half a year, so she understands Yin Li's choice intellectually, but she can't forgive her emotionally.
According to the conversation between Yin Li and Mo Di that day, Ji Xia Mo could already guess some reasons. Mo Di and Yin Li used to be husband and wife, but Mo Di took her shoulder, Yin Li lost the fetus in her womb, and finally died with hatred.
But Mo Di's vague feelings for Yin Li, and Yin Li's attachment to Mo Di for thousands of years, must have another hidden meaning in this.
After the elegant and quiet plum garden is decorated by Ji Yikui, the garden is full of 'flower' lanterns and satin like a clichΓ© happy house. After Ji Yikui left with the slave maid, Aoki asked Ji Xiamo's opinion, but to restore the plum garden to its original state, Ji Xiamo asked Aoki to remove the silk and leave the lantern.
Ji Yikui was busy decorating for a long time, if Ji Xiamo really demolished it, I was afraid that it would hurt Ji Yikui's heart.
After lunch, Ji Xia Mo just lay down and prepared to rest, and Aoki quietly entered the house with an invitation. Ji Xia Mo slept lightly, and opened his eyes when he heard Aoki enter the house. "Is there something wrong?"
Seeing the tiredness in Ji Xiamo's eyes, Aoki was secretly annoyed by the person who sent the post. "Childe, the Zhongyi Wangfu sent a post, and the Zhongyi King invited the Gongzi Wangfu to gather."
The king of Loyalty asked him to do something. Ji Xia Mo frowned slightly, although he had a 'friendship' in the zombie city, but since he returned to the imperial city, he and the king of loyalty and righteousness have rarely been together.
In the first two years, he was weak and difficult to see guests, but later although he was better, the status of the loyal king was noble, and although he was appreciated by the emperor, he was only an ordinary white dress without an official position, and if the loyal king 'befriended' him, it would inevitably arouse suspicion. Now the king of Zhongyi suddenly asked him what kind of 'medicine' was sold in the gourd.
Ji Xia Mo was suspicious in his heart, and said after a while, "Tell the carriage, and I can get up." β
"Yes!"
Ji Xiamo has countless silk and satin in his wardrobe, this time he went to see the King of Zhongyi, Ji Xiamo only chose a plain 'color' green robe, and the green silk was pulled up with peach 'flower' white 'jade' hairpins, and his temperament was warm and elegant.
Ji Ye was still in the palace to discuss state affairs with the emperor, and after Ji Xiamo informed Su Jingyao, he left the palace by car and went to the Zhongyi Palace.
On the way, Ji Xia Mo imagined countless reasons, but he still couldn't guess the intentions of King Zhongyi. Lou Yin saw that he was really uncomfortable, and said comfortingly, "Don't be afraid of me." β
"I'm not afraid that he will harm me, but I am afraid that he will ask for something." Ji Xia Mo was helpless.
The King of Loyalty and Righteousness is awe-inspiring and cautious, and has never been willing to intervene in the struggle for imperial power. The battle for the heir has begun, and according to the temper of the loyal king, it should not be mixed up.
But when Feng Shaojin was in the zombie city, he was kind to King Zhongyi, and Feng Shaojin was Feng Lingchen's backup, so he was afraid that even if King Zhongyi did not participate in any party to seize the heir, his heart would be biased towards Feng Shaojin.
If Feng Yelan thinks that the King of Loyalty and Righteousness is β‘β‘, if he gets close to the King of Loyalty, he is afraid that he will also be burned by the time.
Hesitant to come to the Zhongyi Palace, there were already 'waiting' guards outside the mansion, Ji Xiamo followed the 'waiting' guards into the mansion, and when he saw the Zhongyi King, Ji Xiamo instantly took away all the external 'exposed' emotions, and replaced his face with a decent smile
"Grass people Ji Xia Mo see King Zhongyi." Ji Xia Mo bowed his hand and knelt 'wanted'.
King Zhongyi raised his hand and supported him, with a hearty smile and approaching, "Since there is no outsider, Xia Mo doesn't need to be polite, and if he is weak, sit quickly." β
Ji Xia Mo thanked King Zhongyi, glanced at the 'attendant' guard Ye Yi next to him, and nodded slightly. The corners of Ye Yi's mouth raised slightly, and he bowed.
After the zombie city, Ye Yi had sincere respect for Ji Xiamo. Although Ji Xiamo's cultivation of the strange 'door' Dunjia technique made him awe-inspired, Ji Xiamo's fairness and honesty in solving the case made him admire him from the bottom of his heart.
After Ji Xiamo sat down, King Zhongyi personally poured tea, "I heard that you were sick again a few days ago, and you have been better recently." β
"Thank you for your concern, Xia Mo is fine." Ji Xiamo took the tea with both hands.
"There is a ginseng rewarded by the emperor in this king's mansion, and this king will order someone to take it for you later."
Ji Xia Mo paused for a moment when he drank tea, and then said respectfully, "Xia Mo thank you for your kindness, it's just that this ginseng is precious, Xia Mo ......"
"What's valuable?" King Zhongyi raised his hand to interrupt Ji Xiamo's unfinished words. "It's useless for this king to eat, so if you are sick, I will take it for you to nourish your body."
It would be hypocritical to shirk it again, Ji Xia Mo sighed for a moment and arched his hand, "Since this is the case, Xia Mo has thanked the prince here." β
Looking at the famous calligraphy and paintings hanging on the walls on all sides, Ji Xia Mo drank the tea in the cup and said, "The prince invited Xia Mo to come to the palace, I don't know if there is anything wrong." β
"Drinking tea and appreciating the snow, do you have to ask for something?" King Zhongyi pointed to the snow scene outside the window.
Ji Xia Mo smiled faintly and said, "Xia Mo is just an ordinary white cloth, and the King of Zhongyi suddenly sent a post, so he couldn't help but be a little frightened." β
"It's false." King Zhongyi looked at Ji Xiamo with a smile. "Back then, in the Chenzhou case, you 'fine' little monkey didn't toss the old man less."
When King Zhongyi mentioned the old things in Zombie City, Ji Xiamo's expression froze a little, and his hand holding the teacup tightened slightly. "Xia Mo was young and presumptuous at the time, and he offended the prince."
"I don't blame you for being offended, the world is impermanent, and many years have passed." King Zhongyi got up with hot tea and walked to the window, looking at the snow scene in the courtyard with emotion.
"The imperial city is changing, people's hearts are unpredictable, even you are reborn." King Zhongyi smiled lightly. "Compared with the current Ji Changgongzi, who is not leaking, this king still likes the lawless and wanton boy at the beginning."
Ji Xiamo lowered his head and drank tea silently, and the King of Zhongyi looked back at Ji Xiamo and said with a smile: "This king suddenly posted a post to ask you, did you scare you." β
Ji Xia Mo opened his mouth to 'want' and stopped, and his instinctive intuition told him that it was best not to fight with King Zhongyi at this time.
King Zhongyi walked up to Ji Xiamo and sat down, "I invite you to come this time just to drink tea, and I don't want anything." β
Ji Xia Mo was stunned, looked up at the King of Zhongyi and said for a while, "The prince misunderstood, Xia Mo ......"
"This king knows what you are thinking, after all, this king also came out of the palace." King Zhongyi's expression suddenly became serious. "No matter how chaotic the imperial city is, this king will not interfere with your choice."
Ji Xiamo looked at the cold expression of the Loyal King and nodded slightly. "Yes, Xia Mo understood."
King Zhongyi poured tea for Ji Xiamo, faded away from seriousness and regained his kindness, "In addition to drinking tea this time, I have something to say to you." β
"If the prince has something, just say it."
"The palace banquet is approaching, and the virtuous king of Hujiong City will arrive in the imperial city tomorrow."
