Today's weather is really strange, there is obviously a scorching sun overhead, but there are a few dark clouds floating around, half cloudy and half sunny It is raining lightly, the sound of the carriage is unusually clear, I sit inside, my heart is very depressed. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Liu Heng handed me a peeled apple, as if sensing my boredom, he looked for a topic and said, "Do you remember the many stories I told you before? Strange characters in those distant places......"

I barely managed to squeeze out a smile to deal with him, "I remember you once told me the story of the merman, and the nine-headed bird......"

He held my fingers tightly, leaned over and kissed them, and said to me, "The world is so big, there are no wonders, if I could, I would like to show you all over the world!" ”

"The emperor is joking again, as the emperor of the country, you work hard for state affairs day and night, if you take your queen around, then I will not be drowned by the spittle of the people!" I said lightly, but I remembered the first time I met him, I thought he was a chivalrous man, and I was impressed by his words, he had the mind and ambition of an emperor, and he also had his own wishes to achieve, but unfortunately, we were actually strangers from beginning to end.

Hearing this, a smile like sunlight rose on the corner of his mouth, and when he saw that I seemed to be absent-minded, he teased me again, and said, "I haven't seen a shark, but this nine-headed bird may be able to find it for you!" ”

I shook my head, my mind was not in his words at all, "Your Majesty, don't make jokes!" ”

Seeing that I didn't believe it, he pretended to be surprised and said, "Ge'er knows that this nine-headed bird was originally a sacred bird worshiped by the ancestors of the Chu people during the Chu Dynasty, also known as the Nine Phoenix Divine Bird, which is the totem of the royal family of the Chu Dynasty. ”

"It has nine heads, red in color, and a human head and a bird's body."

I looked at him suspiciously, "A human head and a bird body?" Isn't that nine heads on the body of a bird! It's horrible......"

"But it is the sacred bird that the people of Chu rely on, when the Chu Dynasty was about to fall, King Zhao, the lord of the Zhou State, led the army to conquer in person, and died in the muddy water of the Chu realm, becoming a ghost in a foreign land, and later the Zhou people built the Zhou Dynasty, and the hatred of the Chu people can be imagined, so they demonized this bird, and the original divine bird gradually fell from the godhead to the demon bird that received people's soul."

He took me into his arms and said to me like a child telling a story, "Nine heads naturally cannot exist, but it was recorded in Confucius's book "Guangyun": 'Partridges, crossing the river, seeing differences, all incompetent, against the hair decay, a body of nine tails long. ’”

"This nine-tailed bird has been seen before, but at that time there were already good people who knew the name of this bird, but they thought it was very strange, and the nine-headed bird may have evolved from the nine-tailed bird."

"The spring grass is just born and gallops to the garden, and the autumn wind wants to move the long poplar". The window was covered by a curtain of blue crepe, making people unable to notice the passengers in the car, and the lady inside gently leaned on Liu Heng's body, her black hair was scattered behind her, floating a faint fragrance, her hands were tender and smooth, like crystal white marble, under the scorching sun, the ticking wheels were running slowly, and soon, she was out of the palace.

There were very few people on this trip, except for Jin Ling, there was only one guard Xiao Wu, Liu Heng and I were dressed in civilian clothes, got off the carriage, and the shopkeeper who welcomed the guests had already swept the venue clean.

I suspect that he must have been a big deal to welcome the whole guest again.

Still upstairs by the window, sit down quietly, he poured out a cup of fragrant tea and handed it to me, next to my favorite mung bean cake.

"I've been busy with things in the past, I haven't been out for a long time, I guess you've been bored for a long time, take advantage of the good Shaoguang these days, I'll take you out to have a good time!" He closed the window and said with some relaxation.

When I heard this, I was a little surprised, I thought I was just going to welcome guests for a while today and then go back, but I didn't expect him to have a plan for a few days.

Looking at my surprised look, he smiled, "Aren't you happy?" I don't like to stay in that lifeless palace, so in the past few days, I have thrown the government to the imperial brother, how about you settle down to play, just accompany me? ”

He bowed his body, learned the name of the ordinary people, and faced me, "Qingqing lady, are you happy?" ”

I looked at him and froze, and when I tasted the salty taste at the corner of my mouth, I realized that I had shed tears at some point.

He treats me well, spoils me, and treats me as his wife, but everything is based on the premise of harm, and some things cannot be forgotten and relieved, not to mention, I still have so much hatred in my heart, no, I can't forgive him......

"Why are you crying...... he wiped away tears for me in distress, and continued, "Ge'er, do you know, a long time ago, I once thought that after we got married, we must be like now, no matter what you want or what you want to do, I will give you the best of everything......

"Will you give me your life too......" I unconsciously said what I thought in my heart, and at that moment, he looked at me firmly, "Even if you want your life, you will give ......"

Light wine and snacks, the occasional meeting of eyes, and the little friendship between his eyebrows made my heart hesitate at first, but in an instant, it was overwhelmed by hatred......

When he came out to welcome the guests, he seemed to sense that something was wrong, he hugged me tightly and whispered: "Ge'er, hold my waist tightly for a while, I'm afraid something will happen today!" ”

He looked nervous, I subconsciously pulled into his belt, Liu Heng first dragged my arm and walked quickly for a while, and then suddenly turned into the alley on the side. I didn't have time to ask him what was going on, but I heard him whisper, "Hold on!" I was lifted up by him in the air, and he was on a large bluestone, and with a light touch of his toes, he flew up to the roof in an instant.

All of a sudden, the wind was howling, and I didn't have time to panic, or even have time to think about it, so I followed him up and down the rooftops, and the pavilions kept passing under me.

In the past, I only knew that he had a martial arts foundation, but I didn't expect that he would do light skills, and maybe I didn't know too much about him......

He stopped in the woods, took my arm and touched it gently, and as he looked around warily, I immediately realized that someone was watching us, and that it was not good.

Sure enough, there was an ambush in the woods!

In an instant, he pushed me away, and a few hidden black-clad assassins appeared behind several large trees, they were agile and well-trained.

There was a flash of cold light in front of him, and it was almost impossible to react, and those black-clothed assassins swarmed up and attacked him in turn.

I slumped to the side, watching him fight the Assassins, who were outnumbered and aggressive, clearly aiming for his life, and shouted at me, "Run—"

I picked up the dagger from the assassin's hand, held it with both hands, and walked trembling in his direction......

It's just me and him, and this is an opportunity, and maybe, a thought suddenly pops into my mind, as long as he dies, everything will be over! I don't have to be in the deep palace, and when the time comes, I can go out and go out to find Ruixun......

Those people were fighting inseparably, and I was about to walk between them, seeing that the dagger in my hand was about to be inserted into his back, but at this moment, he suddenly looked back, "Be careful-"

My throat seemed to be blocked and I couldn't speak, my whole body couldn't move, but for a moment, I stood on the spot, and in order to protect me, he turned over and blocked a knife for me......

At this moment, Xiao Wu arrived with a large number of guards, "The minister is late for help, please forgive the emperor!" ”

He covered the wound on his arm, ignoring the bleeding wound, and hurriedly checked my whole body, "Ge'er, are you ......okay?"

I looked at him in a trance, the dagger in my hand finally put down weakly, fell to the ground, and made a dull impact sound, "You are injured...... "After all, you saved my life, I still can't kill you......
