【One hundred and seventy-three】The temporary retreat of retreat and retreat
Liu Mengli closed her eyes and rested for a while, because of something in her heart, she never slept soundly.
But she also recovered a little bit of energy, she helped the bed to sit up, and saw that Ah Zhen was sitting on the table with his back to her and dozing off, so she couldn't help but chuckle and said, "If you are tired, come up and sleep for a while." ”
Ah Zhen suddenly woke up, got up and replied, "No, no! The slave maid just saw that the palace master was asleep, so there was nothing to do......" raised her eyes and saw that Liu Mengli's face seemed to be a little better, "Does the palace master feel better now?" ”
"Hmm." Liu Mengli nodded, "I don't know what time it is, I'm afraid Elder Zuo should come back." As he spoke, his eyes unconsciously added a hint of impatience. Ah Zhen saw it in his eyes, but he was puzzled in his heart. Over the years, Xiao Hao has also done his best for the illusionary world, and he has always been loyal, why does Liu Mengli seem to be not very satisfied with him.
But she didn't express her doubts, but just asked, "The slave maid is waiting for the palace master to make up?" After all, Liu Mengli had only taken a nap for a while, and her long hair was already a little knotted. Even if Liu Mengli didn't plan to meet anyone for a while, it was really inappropriate to let it be so messy and not take care of it. So she nodded, got up and walked to the dressing table, and sat down slowly.
Ah Zhen took the jade comb and gently helped her smooth her hair. The appearance of her sitting with her back to each other, with the silver thread like a waterfall, looks like the former Chan You. Ah Zhen sighed suddenly, and said unconsciously: "Unconsciously, the master of Chanyou Palace has also been gone for a while. ”
Liu Mengli lowered her eyes slightly, and said with a light smile: "Speaking of which, the time I spent with her is not as long as yours." After a pause, "Everything about my mother is quite new to me. Nowadays, when I occasionally hear about her deeds in other people's mouths, I can't connect her with myself for a while. It's like listening to someone else's past, and it has nothing to do with yourself. ”
"Heh, what about the palace master's joke?" Ah Zhen shook his head, "This is also a blame for the palace master, after all, the palace master was not by the side of the palace master when he was young." Young children value companionship the most, although they are not very sensible, but they know in their hearts that whoever is good to themselves and bad to themselves will be firmly remembered. The palace master returned to the phantom world in the year of Double Ten, and the palace master at that time was no longer a child, so naturally he would not rely too much on the "companionship" thing. After a pause, "The palace master's temperament is quite similar to that of the Chanyou palace master...... Although some places are not quite like it, the slave guesses, this is also the reason why the palace master was not in the illusion realm when he was young. ”
Liu Mengli's mind was not on this, and she murmured softly: "Young children value companionship the most or ......."
"Yes." Ah Zhen smiled and put the jade comb back to its original place, "Palace Master, the makeup is done." ”
"Huh?" Liu Mengli was stunned for a while, "Oh, thank you for your hard work." She nodded, and got up again, but her feet were fluttering and absent-minded.
Her two children are now following in her footsteps. It's a pity that she can't save it immediately, everything she can do now has been done, but at the latest it will be nineteen years later before she can be reunited......
But without her, is it a reunion?
"Palace Master...... Palace master? Ah Ji whispered softly on the side, and he didn't understand what Liu Mengli had thought, and he lost his mind in an instant, and his face became so ugly. Gong is mainly uncomfortable again, so he goes back to bed to rest? ”
"Not necessarily." Liu Mengli shook her head, "You go and call Xi Zhong, presumably he has already told all the things that have happened over the years." Looking up, he saw that Ah Zhen hesitated, and did not respond immediately, so he couldn't help but sigh, "I'm fine, just say a few words." There you go. ”
Seeing Liu Mengli looking directly at herself, Ah Ji also knew that it was useless for her to insist, so she bowed and retreated.
After about a cup of tea, Ah Zhen turned back again, with a solemn face, but there was no Xi Zhong behind him. Liu Mengli's face changed slightly, and she said, "What's wrong?" ”
Ah Zhen bowed his head: "Elder Zuo...... led his subordinates to surround Lord Xi Zhong's residence. ”
Liu Mengli was shocked, and then instantly thought that Xiao Hao should have been back for a long time, if he really wanted to do something, I am afraid that he would have done it a long time ago, and he would not wait until Ah Ji went to find that the atmosphere was "tense". Just about to get up, he snorted, sat back safely, put his right hand against his chin and said, "Do you hear them talking?" ”
"Elder Zuo said that the broken Xuanguang Mirror is really a big crime, and he wants to bind Lord Xi Zhong to see the palace master." He added, "Elder Zuo has found out what Lord Xi Zhong has arranged for several elders today...... I'm afraid that the palace master will be involved. ”
Liu Mengli closed her eyes and said, "No." "He doesn't have the guts." He sighed again, "But I'm afraid the deterrence of my identity won't be of much use in the near future...... You say, if you put it in front and find that the Xuanguang Mirror is broken, what should Xiao Hao do? ”
Ah Zhen was a little inexplicable when he was asked, but after thinking about it, he couldn't help but gasp and said, "If it had been placed in the past, Elder Zuo would definitely have asked the palace master before acting...... What the palace master meant was that after Elder Zuo went out today, he had gained something and his confidence had increased greatly, so he got carried away for a while, so he made a mistake......
"Nope." Liu Mengli's eyes were slightly picked, "He has gained something else and his confidence has increased greatly, so he acted boldly for a while, testing what my bottom line is." ”
Ah Zhen thought for a moment, nodded and said, "How does the palace master want to deal with it?" ”
"Heh, I'm not feeling well now, so I don't have to think about it." Liu Mengli looked sideways at Ah Zhen, "However, you go and do one thing." ”
"Palace Master, please command!"
"Just now you went, I guess Xiao Hao saw you, so ...... Now he must have thought that I would follow you again. In this way, I did not like him. With a flick of his fingers, he motioned for Ah Ji to approach.
At that time, outside Xi Zhong's mansion, a small group of demon clans led by Xiao Hao surrounded them, talking non-stop. They didn't know the reason, but when they heard that the Xuanguang mirror was broken, or it was related to Xi Zhong, they were all filled with righteous indignation.
Xiao Hao clasped his hands around his chest, with a look of watching a good show with an idle face, but his eyes swept around from time to time, wanting to see that familiar figure.
Leng Bu unexpectedly heard a light cough that did not melt into the environment at this time, he looked sideways, and saw Ah Zhen approaching with a smile, and then saluted: "The slave maid has seen Elder Zuo." ”
"Oh?" Xiao Hao was slightly disappointed, and wanted to ask why she didn't see Liu Mengli, but she felt that this was a self-revealing horse's feet, so she smiled back, "It turned out to be the Ah Ji girl next to the palace master!" I don't know why Miss Ah Ji came? ”
Ah Zhen smiled and said, "I was just passing by, and I found that it seemed to be quite lively here, so I came over to take a look." Pretending not to know, he looked inside, "This is ...... What's going on? ”
Xiao Hao explained: "Oh, the Xuanguang Mirror of the Illusory Realm is broken, I found out that this is related to Lord Xi Zhong, so I want to ask Lord Xi Zhong to come out and talk about it in detail, but...... It seems that Lord Xi Zhong is very weak and doesn't dare to come out? ”
Ah Zhen said in his heart, I'm afraid that Xi Zhong is still healing for the evil at this time, Xi Zhong's temperament is still mild, if this is heard by the evil spirit, it will be amazing, so he smiled and changed the topic: "It was Elder Wen Zuo who came back from the demon world, and I don't know how the news is so well-informed, it is not easy to know that something happened to the Xuanguang Mirror, and it is still determined in a short period of time that this is related to Lord Xi Zhong." Seemingly...... Elder Zuo is really worried about the Illusory Realm all the time! The palace master knows how happy he should be! He added, "Now that the palace master is still resting, it seems that the slaves and maids have not received this news." Now that the slave maid has heard it, she should hurry back and tell the palace master! After that, he turned around and wanted to leave, and inadvertently turned around and sighed, "Alas...... The palace master's health has been getting worse and worse recently, and the slave maid is really worried...... but seeing Xiao Hao's eyebrows jumping, he immediately knew that Liu Mengli's worries were about to sit down, and he couldn't help but feel a little angry in his heart.
Xiao Hao immediately stopped her and said, "Since the palace master is unwell, don't tell her this kind of news!" "Speaking of which, I just came back, but there are still a lot of things to do." Although the Xuanguang Mirror is important, it is not worth mentioning compared to the news I got in the Demon Realm today! Waving at those subordinates, "It's all scattered, scattered!" ”
The corners of Ah Zhen's lips twitched slightly, and then he reluctantly showed a smile and said, "Thank you Elder Zuo for showing compassion to the palace master, the slave and maid went back first." ”
"Hmm."
In the first second with his back to Xiao Hao, Ah Zhen sighed softly.
At that time, Liu Mengli said to her: "I'm afraid that after today, Xiao Hao will have a different heart." I have always acted at odds with him, and one day he will see me as a thorn in his side, and the previous seizure of the throne will be repeated...... Go and let him know first of all that he is in a position of authority and that he is doing what is pleasing to my heart. Besides, I won't see anyone today, so don't let him come to me like an afterthought. Seeing that Ah Ji didn't understand very well, he added, "Only the higher you stand, the more painful it will be to fall." If he is not allowed to taste these sweetness, how will he understand what it is like to fall into the abyss and break his bones? ”
At that moment, Ah Zhen was still uncomfortable, feeling that Liu Mengli was too ruthless and too careful, Xiao Hao had many opportunities to seek a position over the years, but he had never moved, how could he do this now. But just a few words from her, Xiao Hao's reaction just confirmed Liu Mengli's words.
"It seems...... The sky in the Illusory Realm is about to change color again...... "Ah Ji pinched his palm, "blood red." ”
