The emperor walked around the hall, turned his head and asked Gonggong Li: "Are all the people here?" ”

Gong Li counted the figures carefully, and replied: "Your Majesty, there are still three princes who have not returned." ”

"Well, then wait a little longer." After the emperor finished speaking, he leaned back on the dragon chair and closed his eyes to recuperate.

The sun slanted more and more to the west, like a red fireball, slowly burning the top of the mountain......

Just as the sun was approaching the top of the mountain, Tuoba returned with his advisers. He returned to the main hall and smiled at the emperor: "Your Majesty, this king is not late, is he?" ”

"Don't worry," beckoned the emperor, "there are two more behind you, and wait patiently." ”

At this time, the hall gradually fell into darkness, and Gonggong Li saw that the light in the hall was cloudy, so he asked the palace maids to put candles in their palms.

At this time, half of the sun has set into the distant mountains, and the temperature of the earth is gradually cooling.

The queen mother saw that the emperor was waiting a little anxiously, so she asked the people around her: "Why haven't you come back yet?" King Liang, have you sent someone to follow a few highnesses, isn't there something wrong? ”

Wei Lan replied: "Don't worry, sister-in-law, they are coming soon." ”

Sure enough, as soon as Wei Lan's words fell, two figures walking side by side slowly came from a distance, and when they got closer, everyone took a look and found that Yan Hui was walking with the prince of Dali, and the subordinates behind Yan Hui were holding something in their hands; looked behind the prince of Dali, but saw that the people behind him were empty-handed and had nothing.

Originally, I thought that the two of them came back so late, they must have found an incredible rare treasure, and no matter how bad they were, they would not be empty-handed, but now it seems that everyone is inevitably disappointed.

At this time. The sun happened to sink completely into the mountains, leaving a red cloud in the sky......

Gonggong Li shouted loudly: "The time has come-please show the answer to the princes-"

As soon as the words fell, the princes who were hidden in the tucked look, look at me, I look at you, no one wants to be the first to open their red cloth. The princes, who had not covered their things with a red cloth and left them exposed, crossed their hands proudly and looked at the hesitant princes. It's really unpleasant to scold these people in my heart!

The treasures that Prince Zhurong found were several long scrolls. He only rolled the scroll, not in a container. He stood beside the Hui prince and saw a large box in front of him. The two subordinates guarded around the box, and the prince of Hui was looking like he couldn't open it.

Zhu Rongguo and Hui Hui are just two small countries, but they have been at each other's bem悬挂 for a long time, almost a vendetta. Prince Zhurong's heart sneered at Hui Hui's caution. He took advantage of the fact that several of the other party's subordinates were not paying attention, and quickly stretched out his hands over. Lift the lid in one fell swoop! His eyes widened and he leaned in, and out of the box came a small civet with ears longer than ordinary cats, and its fur was white and slender. The two claws are even more slender and beautiful. At this moment, this beautiful civet cat is on the edge of the lid with two front legs, and its two eyes are looking blankly at the people around her. Well-behaved and clever, but also elegant and lively!

"You! What are you doing? The prince saw that the lid of the box was opened. The civet cat almost ran out, he angrily accused Prince Zhurong, then patiently squatted down, stretched out an arm, the civet saw it, very obediently crawled out of the box, and walked along his arm to Prince Hui.

Prince Zhurong laughed: "Sooner or later, it's better to take it out earlier, so that we can all open our eyes!" Yo, what the hell is this gadget, do you want to fool the princess hahaha! ”

Prince Hui gave him a fierce look, then turned a blind eye to his cynicism, walked straight up to the emperor, and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, this thing is called a civet, and it is one that this king caught by chance from my hometown, the highest snow-capped mountain in the southernmost part of Hui. This thing is extremely psychic, but also very beautiful, take three drops of its blood, can remove a hundred poisons, can also be regulated into medicine. When resigned to the danger of fate, taking ten drops of its blood can have the effect of reviving the dead. ”

After hearing this, the emperor was shocked: "Oh? Is it really that amazing? ”

The prince bowed slightly: "Yes, Your Majesty." ”

The emperor smiled: "In the past, a imperial doctor once told me that the Tianshan Snow Lotus at the top of Kunlun has the effect of reducing people's age. I sent someone to pick one and came back, and after taking it, I slept for three days and three nights without waking up, and when I woke up, my face seemed to be older than before. I was furious and killed three imperial doctors in a row! Tell these dogs to fool me with these things that are spread falsely! I'm not going to be merciful! ”

After hearing this, the prince immediately explained: "Your Highness, this thing is naturally different from the snow lotus of that mountain. This civet has lived on the poisonous snakes of the mountains since it was a child, and the more poisonous it is, the more it likes it. In addition, all kinds of poisonous insects, such as centipedes and clams, are also what it eats on a daily basis. Therefore, the effect of its blood with antidote is very credible. Don't hide it, Xiao Wang was once bitten by a five-step snake, and his life hung by a thread, but fortunately, this little guy was beside me, I sucked a small mouthful of its blood, and the snake venom retreated! Seven princesses, even if its effect is not so magical, it is very good for you to raise it as a little guy. Your Royal Highness Princess, whether you look at Xiao Wang Qingqing or not, Xiao Wang will give you this little thing! ”

The Seventh Princess sat upright and said softly, "Your Highness has a heart." Ben Gongzi has always liked these quirky little guys, and since this is the case, it is disrespectful. ”

When Prince Hui listened to her voice as clear as a sweet spring, and then listened to her praise herself, he was stupid all of a sudden!

He was the first of so many princes to talk to the Seventh Princess in the past two days! The Seventh Princess said to take it! She accepted her gift!

It seems that if you don't dislike the princess, it should be very possible to think that you are!

The Uighur prince put the civet in the box again, but without the lid. In front of everyone, he said to the civet cat: "Sit down and don't move!" The civet sat obediently in the middle of the box, blinking, and motionless at the people who were looking at it.

The queen sighed: "What an obedient and docile little fellow!" I saw that the palace was a little envious! ”

And among the harem concubines, which one is not wide-eyed, revealing longing and jealousy?

At this time, Prince Zhurong, who was standing on the sidelines and watching coldly, originally wanted to call Hui Hui to be the first to offer treasure to suffer a loss, but he didn't expect to ask him to beg for a good job! The more Prince Zhurong thought about it, the more unpleasant it became, and at this moment, when he saw Prince Hui's complacent appearance, he couldn't help but "cut" with disdain.

Prince Hui said in a mocking tone: "Prince Zhurong, what kind of treasure are you?" ”
