Chapter 10: Youthful Intentions (3)
According to Chongwu's practice, Mo Qian should have added the word "Yu" in "The moon is clear and the wind is clear, Zhong Ling Yuxiu" to Luo Yao's name and asked him to change his name to Yuyao.
But on the one hand, Luo Yao is different from several other fellow disciples, and he was already an adult when he entered Chongwu, so it seems a little inappropriate to change his name. Second, Qing Ling and Li Zhong made up a lot of rhetoric crookedly, taking the opportunity to complain about their names, saying that because the names of the four senior brothers in front of them were too chivalrous and fairy, they exhausted the master's lifelong cultivation, and when it was Zhong Lingyuxiu's turn, they began to get one more than the other......
Fortunately, Mo Qian didn't seem to care about it, and after a long time, the matter was over. Everyone still calls Luo Yao's real name, or like Qing Ling, they call him "Little Seven".
Mu Han glanced at Ah Jing suspiciously, "What, you knew each other before?" ”
Ah Jing lowered her head and straightened her sleeves, "Last time I accompanied Sister Shiyin back to Fuyang, I passed by Chongwu. Her maid caused some trouble at the bottom of the mountain, but fortunately, Luo Yao helped and didn't make a mess. ”
Qing Ling was more suspicious than Mu Han.
Originally, she had been worried that Ah Jing would tell her what happened in the inn that day, but now, she seems to want to hide it from her brother.
Chenyue led everyone into the main hall.
The palace on the moon peak is different from the Huaqing Hall on the main peak, the building is exquisite and gorgeous, and the color is slightly bright. The layout of the interior is small and compact, the decoration is complicated, the exterior is planted with strange flowers and plants, there is only a corridor between the inner courtyard and the outer garden, people sit in the hall, raise their eyes, they can see the bright and beautiful outside the hall, the birds sing and the flowers are fragrant.
Mu Han seemed to be particularly interested in the garden, standing in front of the window and studying the layout inside and outside, asking Chenyue a few words from time to time.
Ah Jing stood beside Mu Han, as if she was enjoying the scenery outside the window, but her eyes were a little erratic.
Qing Ling and Luo Yao stood at the other end of the main hall, standing some distance away from everyone.
Qing Ling whispered: "Just now I found out that she turned out to be the emperor, you weren't surprised at all?" ”
Luo Yao smiled lightly, "Didn't Senior Sister feel surprised?" ”
"I ......"
Qing Ling thought to herself, that's because I just found out about this with Li Zhong!
But it seems a bit uninteresting to have such important information swallowed by myself and did not take the initiative to share it with my junior and younger brothers......
Luo Yao leaned over slightly and said in Qing Ling's ear, "Actually, I'm very surprised. But in order not to lose his temper in front of the emperor, he had to try his best to pretend to be calm, so as not to be looked down upon by her and Prince Muhan. In fact, I'm still nervous. ”
Qing Ling said "oh", and raised his eyes to see Luo Yao covering his heart and looking sincere, with a bit of anger for the rest of his life, not like he was joking.
She thought about it, realized something, and asked coldly, "Do you like that emperor?" ”
The corners of Luo Yao's mouth twitched imperceptibly, and then slowly hooked, "Senior sister...... How can you see it? ”
Qing Ling cleared his throat and analyzed reasonably: "During the New Year's holidays, I will also change my appearance and go to the town below the mountain to visit the lantern festival and listen to the opera. Isn't there often such a scene in the drama? A man and a woman, because of the opposition of their families, they can't get married, and the women complain and say, 'We have no fate' or something, and then the man promises with grief and indignation, saying something 'I will definitely get ahead one day, so that your family can look down on me'. You want the emperor to look down on you, isn't that what it means? ”
Also, the nervousness is pounding, isn't that it...... Is it the same reaction as when I saw Mu Chen?
Luo Yao lowered his eyes to hide the smile in his eyes, "I wonder if those men in the play got their wish in the end?" ”
Qing Ling thought for a moment, "Hmm...... It seems that there is a ...... who has made military merits, became a general, and finally married a daughter-in-law However," she glanced at Luo Yao with some concern, "Now that the world is peaceful and prosperous, and there is no battle to fight, if you follow this routine, I'm afraid it won't work." ”
Luo Yao raised his eyes and sighed quietly: "It's just a pity that I was born at the wrong time, and I didn't meet anyone to cause trouble, so I can also have the opportunity to show my skills." ”
Qing Ling heard him mention the rebellion, and couldn't help but think of the prince who was deposed for plotting to usurp the throne.
She couldn't help but change the subject, and said suspiciously: "Last time at the inn, Emperor Ji asked me about her brother's whereabouts, and she looked very eager. But today, it seems that she does not want to mention it again. Do you think there will be something strange here? ”
Luo Yao studied Qing Ling's expression, "Senior sister, is it true that she is familiar with Prince Muchen?" ”
Qing Ling made a booing motion, glanced at the back of the senior brother, and pulled Luo Yao to the carved window on the west side.
"Xiao Qi, I can't hide it from you now......"
She frowned and exhaled, her expression looking sad and confused, "I have secretly been to Bichen Peak and met that Prince Muchen once...... I was actually very puzzled, I couldn't guess why Master would let him live in Chongwu, and I couldn't believe that he would be a villain who plotted against usurpation. He looked ...... He's a nice guy......."
To the west of the Moon Peak, it is facing the Ganyuan Valley of the Lost Valley. Looking out of the carved window where the two of them are standing, they can just take in the brilliance of the valley.
The glow reflected in Luo Yao's clear and deep eyes, reflecting a bewildering golden fragment, and the breeze lifted a strand of long hair on his sideburns, skimming the corners of his lips with a shallow smile.
"Senior sister, how can you judge whether a person is good or bad?"
Qing Ling folded his hands in his heart and counted: first, I hurt him with the sound attack technique, but he did not expose me to the master, second, he gave me a silk handkerchief to wipe my mouth, and invited me into his room to rest and drink tea, and third, he ......
"I just know anyway. I look at people, and I can never be wrong! She took out the style of her senior sister and summarized it clearly.
Luo Yao looked away from the window, was silent for a moment, and his tone suddenly became a little rare solemn, "Senior sister may not know that power has been the most erosive since ancient times. People who were born in the royal family were born at the center of the power struggle, and it is not easy to be kind to others in everything? ”
Qing Ling opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but he couldn't think of anything to refute.
Counting up, the only royal family she has come into contact with, except for Mu Chen, is Ah Jing.
Since Ajing can sometimes behave like a lady and behave politely, and sometimes turn her face ruthlessly and shoot ruthlessly, then Mu Chen, can she also be like this?
No.
He wouldn't be like that.
She muttered to herself, "But I've heard his flute." His flute is cold, noble, and pure, and only a pure-hearted person can play such a rhythm......"
At this time, there was a sound of footsteps at the door of the hall, and Mo Qian, dressed in white clothes and white hair, led Zhenglang, Ling Feng and Li Zhong, and slowly stepped into the hall.
In the past dynasties, Chongwu Holy Monarch was in charge of the ancient sacred mountain, and his status was extraordinary, although Mu Han and A Jing were royal families, they were quite respectful and stepped forward to salute Mo Qian.
"On the orders of my father, the younger generation prepared several small gifts in the name of the Chaoyan royal family to reward the winners of this Ganyuan Conference."
Mu Han said, taking a golden book from the attendant's hand and giving it to Mo Qian.
It is an unwritten rule that the royal family provides prizes that have been passed down since ancient times, one is to facilitate those in power to show their prestige, and the other is to attract talents for the royal family. In addition to Chaoyan, the largest country in the Eastern Continent, several small countries in the south will also give gifts, but there is only a slight gap in grade.
Mo Qian's expression has always been cold, and this moment is no exception, he only took the golden book and bowed his head lightly, "Bother." ”
Mu Han handed over another letter, "Father has another letter, ordering the younger generation to present it to the Holy Monarch." ”
Qing Ling stood behind several senior brothers, still pondering the question just now.
Li Zhong shrank his body and frowned at Qing Ling and whispered, "Little Liu, you go and help me take a look to see if she is glaring at me?" ”
He stood in the back row with Qing Ling, and when Shi Cai crossed his senior brother's shoulder and looked out, he happened to meet Ah Jing's gaze. Before Li Zhong could pull out a polite and polite smile, he was glared at viciously by Ah Jing.
How did he know that Qing Ling had pretended to be himself and fought with Ah Jing in the inn at the bottom of the mountain? For a while, some of the second monks couldn't help but feel a little lost.
Qing Ling stood on tiptoe and looked at Ah Jing, and saw that she was saying to Mo Qian generously: "Mu Han and I have admired Chongwu for a long time, and if we can live here for a while before the Ganyuan Conference, we will be extremely happy. ”
It turned out that Emperor Hao's letter, except for some polite words, was actually a chance for his children to stay in Chongwu.
The Misty Valley Ganyuan has stored the aura for thousands of years, and if you can meditate here for a while, it will naturally be of great help to your cultivation.
Qing Ling retracted his gaze and leaned into Li Zhong's ear, "People are talking to Master, where is the time to look at you?" ”
She was nervous, and added half-truthfully: "Maybe you left in too much of a hurry when you came, and your hair was all messed up, which made the emperor feel pickled." ”
Li Zhong hurriedly raised his hand to brush his hair, eager to take out the mirror immediately to take a photo.
At this time, there was only more than a month left before the Ganyuan Conference, and the palace on the clear peak of the moon was also ready, and Mo Qian had no reason to refuse Emperor Hao's request, so he arranged for Mu Han and Mu Jing to live in the Qinglan Hall and Fu Wan Hall on the moon peak respectively.
Mo Qian asked Chenyue and Luo Yao to stay and settle the guests, and then turned around and ordered, "Qingling, follow me." ”
