"You are the queen, the wife of the king, and according to common sense, you should be the closest." Wan Er had an expression of "why can't you even figure this out", "Besides, you are a mortal, who will guard against you and be afraid that you will do it?" ”

"But the man didn't expect that we weren't close." According to this, Shu Kui thinks it makes sense.

"Yes, he miscalculated." Wan Er said, the expression on his face became solemn, "Shu Kui, do you know that if you assassinate the king, according to the laws of Youlan Kingdom, whether you know it or not, whether you succeed or not, you will be sentenced to death." ”

Hearing this, Shu Kui was stunned for a moment, but quickly came back to his senses, and it didn't matter: "The death penalty is the death penalty, it's best, it's better to execute it immediately, and it will save me from letting this Gu gnaw on the internal organs." ”

After finishing speaking, I was bored in the room and went out for a walk.

She came to the garden outside Qingyongju, and while walking, she couldn't help but think of the small garden in front of Haocang Palace, Ling Jiuchuan, and that night, when she bought a fang ring and came back, and the scene when the two of them sat in the pavilion.

"Do you want to go to Majesty Jiuchuan, or are you thinking about who to tell next that I plan to kill you?" Suddenly, Yun Jingli's voice came from behind.

Shu Kui turned around and nodded reluctantly, which was regarded as a greeting.

Yun Jingli squinted at her: "You really have the ability, you actually dare to assassinate Shang Mo's majesty, so that a few of my little girls who are on an errand there don't do any work in the morning, they all get together and whisper." ”

"Then I have to thank the person who gave me the Gu, otherwise, I wouldn't be so bold." Shu Kui didn't have a good breath either.

"I can make it clear to you, Gu has nothing to do with me." Yun Jingli clarified.

Shu Kui doesn't make a sound, whether it matters whether the heart is or not, only you know.

Yun Jingli snorted and deliberately raised her voice: "These are all one by one, they only listen to one side, thinking that I want to harm you, only His Majesty knows me best, knows that I hate insects the most, so I won't get any Gu, if I want you to die, just ask Yun Xuewei to do it." ”

Shu Kui had no intention of arguing with her, so he smiled again, planning to find a quiet place again.

Yun Jingli didn't let her go, and strode in front of her: "I warn you, don't go around saying that it's my Gu, otherwise you'll ......"

"How else?" Shu Kui interrupted her, "You killed me?" Okay, let's do it, I'm guilty of a capital offense anyway. ”

Yun Jingli didn't expect to hear such words, and for a while, she didn't know what to reply.

"Let's let your Yun Xuewei save some effort, it's tiring enough to follow you all day long to catch and beat people." Shu Kui simply said everything he wanted to say, "I didn't say it everywhere that it was your Gu, but what you usually do, which makes people naturally think that you are the one who wants to harm me the most." ”

Yun Jingli stared at her big eyes, still speechless.

"Gu worms are in my body, I don't know when they will start gnawing my internal organs, when the time comes, welcome to visit." After Shu Kui finished speaking, he bypassed her and walked away without looking back.

Next, almost the whole day, Shu Kui walked around the garden, sat there, and came to look for it, but Shu Kui didn't want to go back to the palace, and he didn't have the appetite to eat.

When it was dusk, Shang Mo appeared.

He came from behind him silently, and when he got closer, he blocked Shu Kui's actions.

When Shu Kui saw him, his anger rose again.

"Calm down, calm down." Shang Mo pressed the palm of one hand down slightly, "If not, in the end, it will be the same as last night, I will knock you out and carry it away." ”

"What are you doing here?" Shu Kui tried to suppress the hatred in his heart.

"I have something to announce, and you have to be there." Shang Mo said, hugging Shu Kui.

"Are you going to sentence me to death?" Although he said that he was not afraid of death, when the matter came, Shu Kui was still a little sad.

Shang Mo was noncommittal, and only said as he walked: "It is a capital crime to commit chaos and rebellion." ”

"Then why don't you go find the person who gave me Gu first?" Shu Kui's heart was gloomy.

Shang Mo said "looking for", then stopped talking, and after a while, he came to the palace hall.

Under the throne, civil and military officials stood in four rows, and their eyes were staring at Shu Kui, who was carried in and placed on the chair.

Shang Mo was silent, and after sitting on the throne, he said: "The day of the big wedding is getting closer and closer, what else can I think of, I haven't prepared?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, all preparations are being carried out in an orderly manner." A civil servant replied.

"Okay." Shang Mo nodded, "I invite you to come here to announce one thing - on the day of the wedding, there will be a national amnesty." ”

After saying this, there was silence in the hall.

It took a long time for someone to react, and hurriedly walked out while writing something.

There were also voices in the main hall, and they all applauded one after another.

"Anything else?" Shang Mo swept around the people below, "Let's disperse if it's okay." ”

The crowd immediately rushed out and talked about it.

After everyone had left, there was no movement outside the hall, Shang Mo got up and came to Shu Kui: "Okay, your capital crime will be forgiven." ”

Shu Kui was silent.

Shang Mo dismissed his attendants, squatted down, and looked at Shu Kui at eye level: "I won't let you die, otherwise it will be too boring." The matter of your assassination in the Gu, without me to release the news, has become a topic for more and more people, and soon, Ling Jiuchuan will also know. ”

Shu Kui glared at him, eager to eat his flesh and sleep on his skin.

Shang Mo enjoyed seeing such a look: "Look, how merciful I am, thinking that you were tricked by someone and a victim, not only did not pursue it, but also ordered an amnesty, it is really a blessing to have a good king like me." ”

Shu Kui ignored him, and said in his heart that you and Yun Jingli are really a couple.

Shang Mo stood up: "There is a ceremony to worship the heavens tomorrow, you have to go with me." ”

"I'm still a sinner, aren't you afraid to take me and provoke God to be angry?" Shu Kui rolled his eyes.

Shang Mo laughed: "I'm a rare benevolent monarch in a thousand years, it's too late for God to like me, how can I get angry?" Besides, this is also a ritual, just bow a few times in front of the statue of the great god Nuwa, a stone, it doesn't matter if you want to kill me, whether you are a sinner or not. ”

After speaking, he ordered someone to take the rope, first tied Shu Kui in a circle, and then untied the prohibition on her body and carried her back to the room.

"This ...... What's wrong? Wan Er stood at the top of the stairs to greet him, and was very surprised to see Shu Kui like this.

"Shang Mo took me to the main hall, afraid that I would beat him." Shu Kui was put down and loosened.

"To the main hall? Is it announced that on the day of the wedding, there will be a national amnesty? Wan'er didn't bother to inquire - the news had already spread throughout the palace.

Shu Kui said "um".

"Then you don't have to be put to death?" Wan Er asked again.

Shu Kui nodded.

"Great!" Wan Er hugged her and looked very happy.

Shu Kui was not happy at all, thinking about her future fate, thinking that Ling Jiuchuan would be filled with resentment every time she received news from her, and thinking of her family in the world, all of which made her almost cry.

Wan Er didn't notice her sadness, and after taking care of herself, she went in and out of the field to work again.

Shu Kui leaned on the bed in a daze, her mood was very low, no matter what Wan Er said to her, she just responded in a trance.

"You haven't eaten all day, do you want me to feed you for dinner?" Eventually, Wan'er began to be displeased.

Shu Kui originally wanted to say that he had no appetite, but when he saw the light meal brought into the bedroom, he knew that it was specially prepared, so he was embarrassed to say that he would not eat it, so he could only take a few bites hastily, which meant it.

That night, she was almost awake until dawn before she took a nap.

"Yo, it's really early today." Wan Er came to wake up, pushed open the door, and found that Shu Kui was awake, a little surprised.

Shu Kui smiled, got out of bed to wash, eat breakfast, and change clothes, without saying a word during the whole process, only said goodbye when he left the room.

Outside the palace gate, yesterday's open-top carriage is still parked.

Shang Mo sneaked closer again and suddenly made a move.

Shu Kui had expected this to be the case, but he didn't care about it, and let him put himself in the carriage, mentally prepared to be motionless for the next few hours.

The ritual was held at an altar on the outskirts of the city and lasted about half an hour, and although it was not just a few bows in front of the statue of Nuwa, as Shang Mo said, it was not complicated.

After the ceremony, the team returned to the palace, and Shang Mo sent everyone away and carried Shu Kui into the main hall.

"Traditionally, I have to buy you a piece of jewelry before I get married." He looked down at Shu Kui's face, "If you have pierced ears, just earrings." ”

As he spoke, he put Shu Kui on the chair, took the catalog, and turned a page casually: "This." ”

"Don't." Shu Kui looked at it, it was an exaggerated big earring, "I don't look good when I wear it, isn't it a loss of face for you?" ”

Shang Mo looked at the photo of the earrings, looked at Shu Kui, and felt that it didn't seem to be suitable, so he turned a few more pages: "What about this?" ”

"Come here, I can't see clearly." This time, it was a pair of earrings, Shu Kui said, wanting to take a closer look.

So, Shang Mo held the catalog in front of her.

"Well, it's much better." Shu Kui likes the style of these studs.

"It seems to be a little smaller, it will look good when you wear it?" Shang Mo didn't know much about women's jewelry.

"Why don't you put the picture to my ear and see what it looks like?" Shu Kui gave the building yì.

When Shang Mo heard this, he was right, so he simply tore off this page, folded it a few times, and leaned over and began to compare: "Okay, there's nothing to look at and look at, so let's do it." ”

"This seems to be a bit small, doesn't it seem like you're stingy?" Shu Kui seemed to be deliberately making a problem for Shang Mo.

"So what do you say?" Shang Mo threw the paper in his hand, impatient, "It's big just now, you don't look good." ”

"Pick earrings, I'm better than you." Shu Kui said slowly, "Troublesome Majesty, turn the pages one by one, I promise, pick a pair that will not only give you face, but also taste." ”

Shang Mo had no choice but to squat patiently.

Unbeknownst to him, as soon as he opened the catalog, he felt a sharp pain in his neck.
