Chapter 103: Phoenix Ancient City
Murong Yue looked at Yu Xuanwei's reaction, and she was already sure in her heart, it seemed that she still liked Chu Lingxiao in her heart, but why did she help the Queen Mother. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"You love him so much that you actually watched Chu Lingxiao die?" Murong Yue's eyes stared at Yu Xuanwei without blinking, and said word by word.
Yu Xuanwei's eyes quickly stretched out a strong hatred, and then said: "It's not better if he dies, otherwise he will never belong to this palace." ”
"Does he belong to you when he dies?" Murong Yue asked in some surprise, she didn't expect Yu Xuanwei to be this reason.
"Of course, since I can't get him, no one else can think of it, he can only belong to me." Yu Xuanwei said, with a hint of gnashing his teeth.
Murong Yue looked at the back of Yu Xuanwei leaving, lowered her head and pondered, if she really escaped in Phoenix City as she said, where could she go.
In the afternoon of the same day, Chu Li really didn't lie, he sent a few maidservants to feed Murong Yue rice porridge, which made Murong Yue even more annoyed.
In the palace of the prince of Chu thousands of miles away, Nangong Fusu took off the court clothes of the five-clawed golden dragon and changed into the red brocade robe of the past, wearing a fox fur made of white fox skin, and stepping on auspicious cloud brocade boots.
"Prince, there is news from Linjiang Pavilion." Jiuhua said with a letter.
Nangong Fusu took it with a smile, he sent someone to ask Linjiang Pavilion to send Murong Yue's matter once a month, speaking of which, he received it twenty days ago, why did this time the letter ten days earlier.
However, Nangong Fusu opened the letter, and the more he looked at it, the more gloomy his face became, but he didn't expect that in just half a month, Chu Li would actually wipe out the Murong Mansion.
"Pack up and set off for Phoenix Ancient City tomorrow." Nangong Fusu put the letter in a charcoal basin and burned it, and his narrow peach blossom eyes were full of ice.
"Prince, it's almost the New Year's banquet, this time several princes are planning, isn't it a little inappropriate to leave at this time?" Gan Di said as he pondered.
Nangong Fusu glanced at Gan Di and said indifferently: "For so many years, rare treasures, countless lonely gifts, have you seen that your father has a little appreciation?" It's okay not to prepare for this year's banquet. ”
"Having said that, if you leave at this time, the emperor will be unhappy." Jiuhua also said on the side.
"Whether he is happy or not has nothing to do with Lonely, if you don't want to go, you can stay." After Nangong Fusu finished speaking, he turned around and walked out of the door, leaving the two people looking at each other.
"I guess eighty percent of Miss Murong has an accident." Jiuhua said.
Gan Di frowned, and said half-loudly: "It is really inappropriate for the prince to go to Phoenix Ancient City at this time for the sake of a woman. ”
"You haven't been with the prince in Linjiang Pavilion before, you don't know how much weight that Murong girl has in the prince's heart." Jiuhua shook his head and said.
"Those who have become great things since ancient times, how can they have half of their children's personal affairs, I still have to persuade the prince." Gan Di shook his head and said.
"Don't go, you didn't see it, the prince has made up his mind this time, and it's useless for you to persuade him, it's better to listen to the prince's arrangement and rescue the Murong girl." Jiuhua stopped him and said.
Gan Di glanced at Jiuhua and said, "Aren't you also against the prince being with that woman, why are you in favor of it today?" ”
"If you rescue her this time, the prince will definitely be by your side, and then won't you be able to handle the affairs of the court wholeheartedly." Jiuhua nodded and said.
Gan Di heard his words and nodded, but looking at Jiuhua's expression, he felt that something was wrong with him, forget about this matter, since the prince had made a decision, he couldn't say anything.
This Phoenix Ancient City is at the junction of Chu, Chen and Beiyan, although it is the junction of the three kingdoms, but no country has ever attacked.
Not only because the city lord of the Phoenix Ancient City is the phoenix lord, but the most important thing is that they have a thirty-meter-high city wall, which is as impermeable as an iron bucket, and the soldiers are all masters with one enemy and one hundred, and there are many capable people in the city.
It is said that 500 years ago, this continent was unified by Emperor Shengde, this emperor was extremely ambitious, especially after the domination of the world, his ambition was extremely inflated, so he left the legacy of his ancestors behind and attacked the ancient city of Phoenix.
In this battle, Emperor Shengde sent at least 100,000 troops, but under the iron cavalry of 100,000 troops, Phoenix Ancient City did not succumb, and this battle lasted for half a year.
And all the surrounding towns refused to provide food and grass for the Phoenix Ancient City, wanting to starve the people inside to death, and finally the city lord of the Phoenix Ancient City was furious and led dozens of strangers in the city out of the city to face the battle.
They saw with their own eyes that the city lord brewed a raging fire from his hands, which could be described as a thousand miles of fire, burning half of the soldiers to death, as well as food, chariots and horses, all in one fell swoop.
The others also have their own characteristics, and it is said that the most amazing thing is that Emperor Shengde saw dozens of soldiers die in the blink of an eye in the camp tent, with only a trace of blood on his neck, and he did not even see a human figure.
"Let all of your men retreat immediately, or don't blame me for being unkind."
Eventually, he felt as if someone was holding a dagger against his waist, but he still didn't see anyone, only a faint sound.
This famous battle ended with the withdrawal of Emperor Shotoku the Great, and since then this lesson has been remembered by future generations, and no one dares to attack the ancient city of Phoenix again.
By the time I arrived at Phoenix Ancient City, it was already two months later, and it was the cold winter wax moon, especially the side plug, and the snow was even thicker.
In the past few months, Murong Yue has been forcibly fed every day, and later she knew that she couldn't resist, so she ate it herself, and she didn't lose as much weight as before.
She was sewn by Chu Li and the Shangyi Bureau for her with the best fur on hundreds of sables, which was the warmest, and the boots under her feet were filled with the best wild duck feathers, which were also excellent.
Murong Yue stepped out of the carriage and looked at the ancient city in front of him, the city wall was full of smooth ice, which should have been deliberately splashed on it, and when he looked up, it seemed to be integrated with the sky, and he couldn't see the brick wall inside at all.
On the five-meter-high city gate, the huge 'Phoenix Ancient City' four-character pen walks the dragon, the momentum is magnificent, and there are soldiers wearing heavy armor on both sides to guard.
"This is our Emperor Chen, and we have come here this time to discuss with the city lord." Murong Jun handed the token on Chu Li's body to the guards and said politely.
The guard took it, looked at it, then returned the token and said, "Wait a while, I'll go and report to the city lord." ”
Chu Li looked at Phoenix Ancient City with an uncertain expression, this time he shouldn't have come in person, but he didn't know who to believe, even if it was Chan Yu, he was not completely at ease, this matter was about Chen Guo and his future.
Murong Yue stood beside Chu Li, standing against the wind, she searched for a long time, and finally saw Shen Congnan, who was ten zhang away from her, and her heart seemed to be relaxed.
Chu Li raised his hand and gathered the mink fur on Murong Yue's body, his expression was extremely warm, like a twenty-four filial boyfriend, for fear that she would freeze, but in Murong Yue's eyes, he only felt extremely pretentious.
The time of the incense stick passed, and the gate finally opened again, and this time it was not just the guard himself, but three other people who came with him.
The leader is a woman, Haoyue bent her eyebrows, a pair of glass-like bright eyes flashed shrewdly, a beautiful long black hair curled to the back of her head, tied with a ribbon, and the whole person looked sassy and capable.
