Chapter 20: The Phoenix Conquers the Dragon (3)
Mu Lige twitched the corners of his mouth stiffly, as if he didn't believe it, raised his voice with questioning eyes, and spit out slowly: "Really? ”
"You don't believe it...... Could it be that the result is contrary to the expectations of the imperial brother? Yu Ziying's eyes were calm, but there was some smell of gunpowder in his tone.
"Nonsense!" Mu Lige's ears jumped, his face was warm, and he snorted.
Yu Ziying raised her face suddenly, the doors and windows in the room were closed, and the dim light from the gap in the window was reflected on the bright and pearl-like face, deep and dark, shallow convex shadows, she looked at him expressionlessly, pursed her lips and stood tall, her eyes did not blink, adding an indescribable weirdness and treachery.
Mu Lige was about to have a seizure at Yu Ziying, but when she saw that her expression was wrong, she was not as rebellious as before, and she tried to speak angrily when she encountered trouble...... Weird.
I have heard that if people are overstimulated, the heavy ones are crazy and demented, and the light ones are changed and replaced, her unusual state is a little in the words, Mu Lige's heart sank, her ink eyes flickered, and if what she said was the truth, then if he pressed him aggressively, wouldn't it be equivalent to pouring dirty water on her?
She had just been stimulated in the palace, and now she was pressed on the last straw of the camel, wouldn't it be a disaster if she was forced out of the way?
Yes, Mu Lige moved his lips a few times, and then he was silent, he was relieved that "Mu Xiaofeng" and Emperor Jing had not had a sexual relationship beyond normal men and women, and at the same time felt a little ...... The loss he didn't want to admit.
"Maybe this matter is arbitrary on the part of the imperial brother, Xiaofeng, tired of a day, you can go back to your room and rest for a while." Mu Lige didn't look at her, his eyes stared indifferently at the air, and said lightly.
After listening to this, Yu Ziying didn't say a word, and turned around and walked away very neatly and smoothly, without hesitation for half a minute.
Until he heard the door close with a click, Mu Lige's indifferent expression collapsed on the spot!
He rubbed his forehead and sighed - this sister really grew up to marry someone else as a daughter-in-law, and when the elder brother didn't nervously ask a word, he shook his face to him like this, who did he provoke!
But not long after Yu Ziying left, he couldn't be angry, just because his brain was active, and he was worried about other things, compared to the dispute between brothers and sisters, Yin Sheng's evil seed germinating in the Jiuzhou Continent was a great thing.
Naturally, he couldn't discuss this kind of national event with "Mu Xiaofeng", so he asked her to step back and think about it in the room by herself.
——
Chaoyuan Yanjing's "Youjian Inn" is different from other inns, in general, in addition to the luxurious facilities and complete equipment, it is also an official operation, and the entire inn is not entertained by other merchants and guests during the marriage and concubine selection period of the various countries, and only the envoys of the various countries live.
When Yu Ziying returned to the room, he turned around from the east wing room to a green paint and red beam corridor, this corridor to the north to the west of the entire row of wing suites belong to the scope of the ghost country, the entire second floor is a square corridor aisle, and the private wing room where Yu Ziying lives is opposite to the ghost country.
When passing by Nu and the others' room, there were guards guarding the door, and she felt a little that the people of the Ghost Kingdom had not returned, and now it was about to fall at night, she guessed that Nu and the others must have stayed in the palace for dinner tonight, and then discussed state affairs with Emperor Jing and others.
When Yu Ziying turned another corner to the room, she inadvertently saw a short figure squatting in the corner of the wall with her knees and her head down.
The crow's shoulder-length hair, vertical and supple ears, with a slumped back, wore a simple curved blue robe, and his short legs and arms were curled up by the door like an abandoned stray puppy.
He breathed long and rhythmic, and it was evident that he was so tired that he fell asleep.
After the guards of the Ying Imperial Kingdom outside the door saluted Yu Ziying, they continued to guard without squinting.
Yu Ziying's eyes stopped on his blue and black hair, and after staring at him quietly for a moment, he squatted down and reached out to hook his waist, and when he fell, his hands were fixed on his shoulders and thighs, and he easily picked him up.
Although Yu Ziying is a sixteen woman, her height is not much different from that of eleven-year-old Yu Yunhao, and the difference between the two is only about half a head, which is not to say how well Yu Yunhao has developed, on the contrary, he is much shorter than a boy of his age, plus thin and weak, half a point is not as good as eleven years old.
Yu Ziying carried the person into the house with a strange force, put him on the bed, and then began to look at Yu Haoyun seriously.
I have to say that the clansmen of the Teng Snake Clan's bloodline all look good, even if Yu Haoyun is so tormented by heart disease that his lips are purple and his face is white, and he is malnourished and thin and short due to sleeping in the open air, he can still see the domineering of his genes from his delicate facial features.
Even if the body shape and face are beautiful and skeletal because of the surrounding environment, they still can't resist the fact that people are born with a good foundation, and the innate good temperament is by no means comparable to ordinary people and poor people.
He has a small melon seed face, while Yu Ziying has a graceful goose egg face, but in addition, there are many similarities between the two, the bridge of the nose is erect, the thick and suitable lips, especially the pair of eyes, the eyelashes are like shaving, the pupils are black like paint, black and white, and the slightly upturned eyes are as deep and dark as a cat's pupil staring at people.
It's like looking closely at someone who looks like you and has the same bloodline, it's a strange feeling, not much joy, not much annoyance.
From the moment Yu Ziying was resurrected from Yuwen Ziying, she never deliberately sought the life experience of this life, she always felt that her relatives and her family were in another world, another space.
In this world, there will be no more relatives of hers, but now the feeling in her heart reminds her that this little boy is her relatives whether she likes it or not, and the blood in her body clearly senses this.
"Uhh......h
When he woke up like a pair of black stones, his pupils were confused, and he was slightly stunned when he saw Yu Ziying, until he heard his heart beating violently, he cleared his eyes from the haze, and reacted to who was the person in front of him: "Sister?" ”
"......" Yu Ziying stood on the edge of the bed just now and bent down to observe, and when he woke up at this moment, he withdrew his gaze and sat upright at the foot of the bed.
Xiaoyun's breath was slightly chaotic, and he quickly turned over and sat up, he looked around, and then remembered that he had just come to find Sister Ying, and the guard said that she had not come back from the palace, so he waited outside, but he was tired and fell asleep unconsciously, and immediately his blue and white cheeks couldn't help revealing a hint of redness, and he stammered: "Sister, sister, I ......"
"You're looking for me?" Yu Ziying got up, poured a cup of tea and handed it to him.
His voice was slightly dry, and he was afraid that it was caused by the thirst of waiting for a long time.
After Xiaoyun took it blankly, Fang Jue was indeed thirsty, so he drank it in a small sip, and Fang whispered shyly, "Xie Luxie."
In fact, he was still surprised that he was brought into the room by his sister and slept on her bed, he couldn't help but be ashamed that his heart beat faster because he slept so deeply, his face was red, and he often said that men and women were seven years old, but he was eleven years old now, although he was a sister, but he felt uncomfortable lying on her bed so rudely, so he finished drinking, and he slid off the bed and put the cup on the table.
"Your sister Xue knows that you are here?" Yu Ziying asked.
As soon as she heard Yu Ziying mention the name "Ji Yun Zhaoxue", Xiaoyun's whole person seemed to be poured with a basin of cold water and fell silent.
He turned his head to look at her, his little face was sickly pale, and his black and white eyes were bright: "Sister Baby, the palace is in danger, don't you participate in this concubine election, okay?" ”
Yu Ziying walked in front of him, half-closed eyelids, flowing light and blue eyelashes, and his dark eyes were injected with some concentration: "What danger?" ”
Xiao Yun looked up at Yu Ziying, obviously a strange and domineering face, but from those familiar eyes, he felt a kind of closeness spontaneously.
She asked what the danger was, and she chose to believe his words, which moved Xiaoyun greatly.
He told Yu Ziying all about the conspiracy between Ji Yun Zhaoxue and the mysterious woman before, and added a sentence after the last: "I know that the woman must have come out of the Yanjing Palace." ”
Yu Ziying listened to Xiaoyun's words, and she was still calm, she said: "Didn't you say that she deliberately changed her voice, and she was covered in a black cloak, so she couldn't see her?" ”
Xiao Yun's purple lips tightened, and said thoughtfully: "The way she walks is different from those ordinary people, I can't describe that feeling, I have observed the princesses living in the inn in the past few days, they seem to walk like that, I think her identity must be unusual, this morning, Chaoyuan Palace sent someone to take you into the palace, I accidentally saw a leading eunuch with a piece of iron, copper and yellow paint hanging on his waist, and she also had such a piece around her waist, I just remembered." ”
I have to say that the little ghost is very smart, and his observation and memory are not weak, and what is even more rare is ...... He is very concerned about Yu Ziying's affairs.
Yu Ziying looked at him deeply: "She...... You're all lazy people, why are you telling me this? ”
Xiao Yun's face changed suddenly, he never mentioned the matter of the Exotic Lazy Emperor from beginning to end, just because he didn't want to involve her deeply, but he didn't expect that she knew everything from beginning to end.
"Sister Baby, you ...... How do you know about the Dao? Xiao Yun clenched his little fists, and his dark eyes trembled.
"Don't be surprised, I guessed it a long time ago." Yu Ziying said lightly, and asked again: "What else do you see in that woman besides her walking posture and waist card?" ”
Xiao Yun was stunned for a moment, and when he heard her ask, his mind turned in that direction, he turned his head and thought about it, and said, "There seems to be a very faint jasmine fragrance on her, if I smell it again, I will be able to recognize it." ”
"You don't need to worry about this anymore." Yu Ziying directly refused.
She had wondered how it was possible for a small country to install so many spies disguised as people from the Chaoyuan Palace, but now she understands that it would be much easier to pull the rope if there was a "person with a heart" planted in a foreign land.
It was because of this person's help that the Hundred Bird Kingdom used as a bright shield to cover the secret power of another Yin Sheng, and the secret power of the Hundred Birds Country was not pulled out together, and the secret arrow did not know what purpose the hidden Dao was.
"Sister Baby, you ...... Do you know who I am? Xiao Yun flashed with a pair of big eyes, and his thin slap face was nervous and serious.
Is he ready for a showdown with her?
Yu Ziying frowned, now is not a good time for a showdown.
"Xiaoyun, can you trust me unconditionally?"
Xiaoyun's eyes widened slightly, his eyes opened in a panic, his thick eyelashes drooped, and he was speechless for a while.
"Don't believe me?"
"It's not!" Xiaoyun hurriedly wanted to argue, but he didn't know how to explain it for a while, he pursed his lips, and his little face tightened.
"Believe it, but don't dare to believe it all, right?" Yu Ziying's eyes were meticulous and keen, carefully analyzing his expression.
Xiaoyun was stunned, opened and closed his mouth a few times, but still couldn't spit out a word.
"You can go back." Yu Ziying said.
"Sister!" Xiao Yun's face turned pale when he heard this, his heart seemed to be clenched, a little stuffy and a little painful, he looked vain, and cautiously walked over and pulled her fingertips, those little hands held her fingertips, not daring to hold her presumptuously, and wanted to be able to touch her.
He trembled in his voice, and said in a childish voice: "You, are you angry?" ”
"No, it's just that this matter will be put aside for now, and we will talk about it when you can fully trust me." Yu Ziying pulled out his hand.
Yu Haoyun's lips trembled, and he drooped his head, like an abandoned gray dog.
When Yu Ziying saw him so depressed and injured, she felt as if she was bullying a child, so she said more: "In addition, you can't be gullible about Ji Yun Zhaoyun, but there is no danger in staying with her for the time being, but it is not possible to stay by my side, so before she finds out, hurry back." ”
Xiaoyun said that Ji Yun Zhaoxue went out to get medicine for him, so he could go out.
Xiao Yun then understood Yu Ziying's "good intentions", he raised his head suddenly, his eyes suddenly lit up, although he did not smile, but he seemed to have a tail wagging happily behind him.
Xiao Yun pursed her lips shyly and glanced at Yu Ziying carefully: "I understand, I won't trouble Sister Ying, I'll go back now." ”
After Xiaoyun left, Yu Ziying thought about another thing: Could it be that the Lazy Emperor and Yin Sheng really cooperated?
——
A little later, the palace sent someone to invite Ying Huangguo into the palace again, and it was still the eunuch in charge of internal affairs, who said a general about entering the palace, but was directly rejected by Yu Ziying beyond his authority.
Seeing Yu Ziying's appearance of not getting oil and salt, in desperation, the chief housekeeper put out the fire, and when he left, the faces of the group of eunuchs were extremely ugly.
Cheated dad goods! Why should it be swollen now?
When they went back to report on the matter with twelve points of caution, Emperor Jing was not angry, but asked lightly, "Did she really say that?" Did she say anything else? ”
The chief of internal affairs carefully peeked at His Majesty's expression, secretly speculated on the holy will, and said in a whisper: "Uh, no...... Without...... It seems to ......"
When Emperor Jing heard this, his slender eyes sank slightly, and he sneered: "I'm afraid I can't help her in this matter." ”
Well? Perverted? The head of internal affairs was shocked and dumbfounded by Emperor Jing's declaration of the president.
——
Sure enough, just after dawn on the second day, Yu Ziying entered the palace as Emperor Jing wished, but was not forced into the palace by Emperor Jing, but was packed and brought into the palace by Mu Lige, who had done a night of ideological work.
- Jiuzhou is too dangerous, since you can't go to Mars, then find the thickest thigh to hold!
Yu Ziying was not surprised by this result, or more prepared to say that she was happy to see it happen, and her previous refusal could be called a desire to capture and indulge.
After all, she has already selected Emperor Jing's greed as the target of this strategy, so she naturally needs to be closer to start, and Emperor Jing is so eager to summon her into the palace, presumably it is better to be closer to it.
Emperor Jing, she looked at this person carefully, her heart was very small, and she wanted him to play happily together without blame, that was a dream.
She secretly thought about his thoughts, he used the past to threaten her to win this marriage match, I am afraid that she is planning to let her be a target, so regardless of the eyes of others, one after another to send people to invite their two brothers and sisters into the palace, isn't it this kind of bad idea?
The Ying Imperial Kingdom in Jiuzhou is at most a middle-class and upper-class country, and there are high-class countries and powerful countries at the top of it, and those who have been arranged to live in the palaces have not yet enjoyed the courtesy privilege of entering the palace to live.
But this is not a completely bad thing for Yu Ziying, she doesn't care about becoming the target of the public, her original intention is also to find out Yin Sheng's potential power in Jiuzhou as soon as possible, this purpose coincides with Emperor Jing's idea, and after entering the palace, it is easier to obtain Qianrui beads dried flowers to detoxify the old beggar and Hua Cheng.
All the powerful countries live in the palace of Chaoyuan Kingdom, and the lust of the Northern Frontier Kingdom, which naturally has dried flowers of Qianrui beads, also lives in the palace.
And Zhilu Daoying Imperial Kingdom was exceptionally admitted to the palace by Emperor Jing to live, and he was angry at the time, so he naturally didn't want to live outside the palace, thinking that the sister paper he was thinking about was looked at by wolves and tigers, and he also chased after him into the palace.
As for Xiaoyun and Ji Yun Zhaoxue, they still live in an inn, and the gluttony division was arranged by Yu Ziying to take care of him, so he didn't live in the inn.
July 17
Following the trial ceremony, the countries eliminated dozens of or thirty countries, including four strong countries, eighteen medium countries, twelve small and medium-sized countries, ten small countries, and the remaining seventy-four princesses were officially included in the draft of Emperor Jing's harem.
