Since the holy decree came down, Sheng Xuejian has become the saintess of the altar, so the fourth princess, she doesn't have to go to accompany her anymore. On this night, all the things that the Holy Maiden needed in the altar were delivered to the orchid garden.

Sheng Yuan took Sheng Xue to kneel down to accept the order. The chief eunuch handed over the will to Sheng Xuejian's hands, and said with a smile: "Holy Maiden, at three o'clock in the afternoon tomorrow, I hope that the Holy Maiden will remember, don't miss the time." ”

"Your Excellency has worked hard!" Sheng Xue nodded and got up, and the nurse immediately presented the gold leaf with both hands, and the chief eunuch also generously accepted it. He looked at Sheng Xue carefully and couldn't help but sigh secretly.

At a young age, she is already like a hibiscus out of the water, and her pearl-like eyes are really clear and moving. It's no wonder that Duanmu Shizi was angry with her. In the end, the hero is sad to pass the beauty level, which is always good.

Thinking about this deep harem, Concubine Lin Guifei fought to the death, but under this seemingly prosperous appearance, is it really the emperor's grace? For some reason, the chief eunuch suddenly remembered.

On that day, the emperor always wandered outside the empress's palace.

The chief eunuch shook his head and said goodbye to Sheng Xuejian and the others. Sheng Xue saw that he was leaving, so he ordered Ah Hua and others to open a few vermilion boxes.

"I heard that our young lady is the second saint of the apocalypse, and the slave maid can see the things of the saint in this life, it is really no regret." Hongmei's eyes showed a sigh.

Sheng Xue saw that he reached out and took out a red belt from the box, this red palace dress, I heard that the clothes used for the queen's wedding are also silk on this day, and the status of the saint can be seen.

"The slave knows anyway, Zhao Shilang and his unsightly son will never dare to pester our young lady anymore!" Ah Huale packed up the things in the vermilion box.

Sheng Xue saw that she was tired all day, leaning on the soft couch and asking a few maids to remove her makeup.

On this side, Duanmu Jinghua and Duanmu Jingyao were drinking tea in the garden: "Seriously, I'm really afraid that you will do it today, and you have been hiding for so long, if it is exposed at this moment, it will really be a failure." ”

"Didn't he already know it?" Duanmu Jinghua snorted coldly and reached out to pick up the white porcelain teacup. Duanmu Jingyao shook his head: "That's different. ”

"Everyone knows that Prince Gong's Mansion has no real power. He could probably guess. But we can't let the world know. "Duanmu Jingyao is rarely serious.

"Like today, if it weren't for Sheng Xue's good enough cover-up, the emperor would definitely know that the top three Jinke were all our people. You've been calm for so many years, don't mess around. ”

Duanmu Jingyao looked at his younger brother solemnly. It seems to be waiting for a promise from his younger brother.

"For the sake of Aman, I have a square inch." Duanmu Jinghua raised his head and drank the cup of Longjing.

"What are you going to do next, are you really on the side of the Huangfu Heavy Building?" Duanmu Jingyao rubbed the pattern on the edge of the teacup with one hand, and a touch of sadness came to his heart.

"Chonglou is not his father. Both the queen and the empress can be trusted. He would make a good monarch. Duanmu Jinghua said lightly.

"Jinghua. Whatever you want to do, my sister will definitely support you fully. Duanmu Jingyao looked at his younger brother, his eyes full of pity.

Suddenly a thunderclap shook the western sky, and lightning divided the sky like a great net.

"I remember, that person was also at the altar?" Duanmu Jingyao sighed faintly: "I don't know if he's doing well." ”

Although Sheng Xue saw that the four of them were all apprentices of the ghost array, the things that the four of them learned were different. The emperors of the past dynasties knew astronomy and geography, and almost knew everything. However, the disciple's abilities are very limited.

Therefore, every disciple has a specialization in the art industry, and only then can he succeed in learning. Therefore, these four disciples did not study in one place, and they were not even allowed to see each other for many years.

Early this morning. Huangfu Chonglou set off from the palace, and he and the other two wanted to learn martial arts from the emperor, but Sheng Xuejian, who was a saint, could sleep until noon.

In the orchid garden, Ah Hua came in from outside, carrying a food box in her hand: "Miss, the fifth master brought back some strange snacks from the Western Regions, and said to let Miss taste them!" ”

The nurse reached out and took it and put it in Sheng Xuejian's bowl, Sheng Xuejian picked up the chopsticks and put a piece in her mouth, she had never tasted the feeling of melting in her mouth.

"I really want to be like my uncle. Travel all over the world and see all the wonders of the world. But it doesn't look like it is now. Thinking that he was still trapped in Shengjing, he couldn't help but sigh.

"Miss, the slave has never been out of Kyoto. The slave and maid still envy you! Ah Hua pouted, all unintentional, but reminded Sheng Xue to see it.

"It's because my heart is not enough that the snake swallows the elephant." Sheng Xue saw that he hurriedly used his meal. The carriage outside was already ready to stop. This is the first day to go to the altar, and it must not be too late.

This is Sheng Xuejian's first time entering the palace, but she is very excited and curious. When he got out of the carriage, a boy seemed to have been waiting for a long time. Led Sheng Xuejian to walk in the direction of the altar.

I saw that the high vermilion palace wall blocked the sky, the heavy gate was closed, and there was indescribable silence everywhere. This tall and majestic altar was suddenly a little deserted.

When the boy had led the way, he said his farewell and withdrew. Sheng Xue saw that she was standing at the door, and she hesitated for a while. But this is her path, and she will go down alone.

In the school field on the outskirts of Beijing, Huangfu Chonglou and the other three are competing with a huge copper tripod. In the morning, the ghost asked them to lift this copper tripod ten times, and whoever didn't lift it didn't want to eat.

It's a ridiculous punishment, but it's the most pertinent punishment. Even Duanmu Jinghua failed three times before succeeding. Not to mention Huangfu Chonglou and Huangfu Cassia Ming.

"Help me~~" Huangfu Chonglou finally succeeded in completing the task, limping and slowly moving to Duanmu Jinghua's side. He looked up at the sky with difficulty.

"Speaking of which, Sheng Xue sees that it's time to go to the altar, right?" Huangfu Chonglou said, and knocked on the ghost who was indifferently drinking tea on the high platform not far away.

"It's just that Master is not at the altar now, what did she learn there?" As soon as Huangfu Chonglou's voice fell, Duanmu Jinghua's sharp eyes swept over.

"I don't think I'm saying anything wrong, right?" Huangfu Chonglou was stunned every time he saw Duanmu Jinghua's eyes. In the flash of lightning, he suddenly remembered something.

Huangfu Chonglou put one hand on Duanmu Jinghua's shoulder: "It seems that Brother Rong Jing has lived at the altar for many years, and he should be at the altar today." ”

Rong Jing, a person who has been forgotten for a long time, a person who is more unused than Duanmu Jinghua, and a person who is no less talented than Duanmu Jinghua.

But he was chained to the altar for many years.

Sheng Xue saw that she was standing outside the gate and coughed softly.

"Anyone?" She raised her hand and politely tapped on the door, but there was no response. This empty silence. Let Sheng Xue see a little hairy.

She closed her eyes and pushed hard, and the door opened easily. Sheng Xue opened her eyes suddenly, and suddenly there was a person standing in front of her.

Sheng Xuejian had never seen such emotions in anyone's eyes. Such a heavy sadness is at the same time such a light cloud. There are so many things hidden in one person's eyes.

He has a appearance no less than Duanmu Jinghua, but the blue-shirted young man in front of him has no trace of vitality around him, he is not at all different from Duanmu Jinghua.

"Is the emperor there?" Sheng Xue asked in a low voice.

"You are the saintess he received, the first disciple of Tianzi?" The blue-shirted boy did not answer Sheng Xuejian's question. But he asked her a question.

"It's me. The Holy Decree commanded me to come to the altar at three o'clock in the afternoon. Sheng Xue had never seen this blue-shirted young man, and she had never heard of such a person in the palace.

Sheng Xue quietly looked at this blue-shirted young man with his eyes, such a bearing, faintly with the bearing of the prince's family, who is he?

"Who are you?"

"I'm Rongjing."

Hearing his name, Sheng Xue was shocked when she saw it, Rong Jing! When the emperor ascended the throne, the son of Concubine Duan rebelled at the city gate, and the emperor ordered Prince Gong to quell the rebellion.

That year, Concubine Duan and her son all died, and it is rumored that only her grandson Rong Jing survived. Sheng Xue thought she would go to the people. I didn't expect to stay in the palace all the time.

The secret of the Apocalypse royal family was too deep and too long, and a gust of wind came through the hall, and Sheng Xue couldn't help but feel excited.

Rong Jing stretched out his wide sleeves to block the overly cold wind for Sheng Xuejian: "It's too cold here, come in." ”

"The saintess guarded the altar and followed the emperor to practice the art of Xuanhuang deduction. I heard him say, "You're doing very good chess." Rong Jing said as he walked towards the altar.

Sheng Xue saw that while following Rong Jing, she looked at the altar. This tall temple is all made of golden silk nan wood, but it is all bare wood, not a royal palace. It's like a gym.

Rong Jing stopped, Sheng Xue looked up at him, only then did he react, he asked a question.

"Why don't we play the next game?" Sheng Xuejian brought it up. is because she can't see through the person in front of her, and playing chess can test the city in a person's heart.

The sunlight fell into the side room of the altar, and outside the window of the nave, there was a lotus pond, and two red carps were smart, only to know that time was passing.

Sheng Xue saw that he was holding a white seed in one hand. Knocking lightly on the chessboard, speaking of which, except for the master's ghost for a while, she has never encountered such a difficult opponent.

"I admit defeat, you played well." Sheng Xue lost the chess pieces in frustration. The blue-shirted young man opposite suddenly smiled faintly. Like an ink lotus blooming on paper, it is beautiful.

Sheng Xue blushed slightly, this young man smiled so beautifully. If it weren't for someone in her heart, she would be afraid of being bewitched by this smile.

"You have hills and valleys, but you are not good at calculating. This Xuanhuang technique, deducing heaven and earth, you can't learn it. Rong Yan put away the chess pieces and gave Sheng Xue a conclusion.

But when these words were heard in Sheng Xuejian's ears, he was not so happy. "Why do you say I can't learn?"

Rong Jing paused, looked at Sheng Xue with some daze, and said softly for a long time: "I'm sorry." ”

He has lived in the altar for too long, and he has long remembered the truth that the beauty is abrupt, he is too direct.

Sheng Xue saw that looking at his appearance, she didn't know what to say, what was going on with this person, as if she had bullied him.

"Tell me, why can't I learn?" Sheng Xue saw that he was still very persistent about his words.

"If you don't believe, wait until he returns, and you will know." Rong Jing kept silent about what had just happened. Sheng Xue didn't bother to be bored when she saw it.

The two sat in relative silence, the air was silent, and suddenly it became boring. Sheng Xue is not a person who talks much, but the person in front of him is too easy to be curious.

"Are you the grandson of Concubine Duan back then?" Sheng Xue asked boldly when she saw it.

On the school field, Huangfu Cassia finally succeeded in lifting the copper tripod ten times in a row, and the ghost let the three of them go, and Shi Shiran returned to the palace.

Huangfu Chonglou and Duanmu Jinghua stood up and looked at the somewhat dim sky: "I don't know what Sheng Xue will look like when he sees Rongjing." The king has not seen him for many years. ”

Duanmu Jinghua did not answer Huangfu Chonglou's words, but turned around and walked towards the camp gate. Huangfu Chonglou had not yet noticed the troops and followed him.

"Listen to my mother, Rong Jing's appearance is on par with you, and her talent is even above you, you said that Sheng Xue saw that little girl and Rong Jing, will she not want you?"

"Zheng!" Before Huangfu Chonglou's words fell, a sword light came and wiped Huangfu Chonglou's cheek, which frightened Huangfu Chonglou and straightened up on the spot.

"You, you, you!" Huangfu Chonglou spoke incoherently until Duanmu Jinghua moved his sword away. Huangfu Chonglou breathed a sigh of relief. "Did you take the wrong medicine today?"

Duanmu Jinghua doesn't know why he is always restless today. In fact, he can't remember Rong Jing's appearance, let alone Rong Jing's affairs. It's just that every time he mentions this person, he vaguely feels pressured.

Sheng Xue saw the appearance of Rong Jing, and threw a handful of fish food into the lotus pond. "So Prince Gong saved you, so why did the emperor dare to keep you in the palace?"

"Because Prince Gong and the emperor have reached an agreement." Rong Jing said that the clouds are light and the wind is light.

No one dared to ask about these old things, and he had no one to talk about. When Sheng Xue asked today, he could finally tell the past that he had been holding back for too long.

"I see." Sheng Xue saw that she patted the fish food in her hand and stood up: "It's not early, I should go back." ”

Rong Jing then stood up: "Although you don't have the potential to learn the Xuanhuang technique, this book is very useful to you." Yan Yu handed a book to Sheng Xue to meet.

Sheng Xue saw that he took a look at this ancient book, and there were three words written on the page. "You know I'll do rouge?"

"From the moment I saw you, I knew who you were." Rong Jing looked at Sheng Xue calmly, but there was some smugness in his words.

"You can deduce heaven and earth, what's so strange about deducing her identity?" An old but energetic voice interrupted the conversation between the two. The ghost walked along the small bridge.

Sheng Xue saw that she hurriedly saluted the master, but was pulled up by the ghost array. "Although this is a palace, you don't have to salute like this. This is Rongjing, you will learn from him in the future. ”

"But Master, am I not your disciple?" Although she had been with Rong Jing for a long time and knew that he was different from mortals, Sheng Xue was surprised to hear her master say such things. (To be continued.) )
