Chapter Ninety-Six: The Strange Girl in the River

According to Liu Che's will, the palace is located in Muping County, which is less than thirty miles away from the East China Sea, and this time he failed to see An Qisheng, although Liu Che was a little disappointed, but after listening to Luan Da's words, he was very expectant, after all, after so many years, he asked for immortals, isn't what he wants to be an immortal? If immortals can easily see it, how can there be very few people in the world who can become immortals? I can't help but comfort myself when I think about it, as long as I can endure it and wait sincerely, I will definitely be able to open it up.

After waiting so reverently for more than a month, and the weather gradually became hotter, Liu Che became more and more upset, "Heavenly Dao General, why have I waited here for so long, and the Ling Shi is still missing, do you know the reason?" ”

Luan Da also shook his head in confusion and said, "It shouldn't be! His Majesty has been waiting here for a long time, and if the family teacher sees it or not, he should send someone to inform the minister, but for some reason, the minister has not received a message from the family teacher. ”

"How's that good?" Liu Che walked around irritably and said, "I can't wait like this forever!" ”

"Your Majesty... The subordinates are terrified! Luan Da confessed, "If the family and teacher are together, they will see, and if they are not together, they will be hidden, and the subordinates will not dare to disobey..."

Looking at Luan Da's appearance, Liu Che said impatiently, "You go down first!" ”

"No!" Luan Da bowed down and walked away, looking at the back of Luan Da leaving, Liu Che's previous doubts surfaced in his heart again, and after thinking for a while, he whispered a few words to the little yellow door beside him, and the little yellow door would go.

A few more days passed, but there was still no movement.

Suddenly, one day, the light of day appeared, and Luan Daben entered with a big fish in his hand and asked to see, "Your Majesty! The family teacher has a letter to hand over to his subordinates! Luan Da had an unconcealable excitement on his face, and said with a big fish.

Liu Che seemed to have just gotten up, and when he saw this, he couldn't help but wonder: "The letter from the Lingshi is actually this fish?" ”

"Exactly!" Luan Dadao, "Last night the subordinate just fell asleep, he heard a bird pecking sound outside the window, the subordinate opened the window only to see the black magpie fluttering wings and flew in, and constantly signaled the subordinate to follow it, the subordinate followed the black magpie to the seaside, and saw a big fish under the reef, the black magpie stepped on the big fish, pecked three times on the reef and flew away, the subordinate did not dare to delay when he saw this, and presented the fish to His Majesty as soon as he came back. ”

"What's wrong with this fish?" Liu Che looked at the fish in front of him, which was no different from the fish he usually saw.

"Your Majesty, this fish must have a message from the family teacher to the ministers, and Your Majesty will know if you order someone to cut open the belly of the fish." Luan Da swore solemnly.

"Okay, I'll do what you want!" Liu Che said, "Spread the cook!" ”

Not long after, the kitchen passed to the inner hall, after cutting the fish belly, he saw a white cloth in the fish belly, Luan Da hurriedly stepped forward to take it out, wiped it clean and opened it to see, there were words on it, Luan Da was like a treasure, and hurriedly presented it: "Your Majesty, please see!" ”

Liu Che looked at it, and wrote on the white cloth in ancient seal script, 'The Yellow Emperor was a guest for three days'.

"The Yellow Emperor was a guest for three days? What does this mean? Liu Che was puzzled.

"Your Majesty, the meaning of the family teacher is that the Yellow Emperor is now a guest in the Immortal Palace for three days." Luan Da replied respectfully.

"What does the Yellow Emperor have to do with me as a guest in the Immortal Palace?" Liu Che looked at Luan, and his eyes flashed with suspicion.

"Your Majesty, one day in the sea, one year in the world, the Yellow Emperor was a guest in the Immortal Palace for three days, that is, three years in the world, no wonder the family teacher delayed welcoming Your Majesty, it turned out to be this reason." Luan Da held the white cloth in his hand and said thoughtfully.

"You're so daring! How dare you deceive me! Liu Che's face sank suddenly, and he looked at Luan and shouted loudly.

"Your Majesty!" Luan Da was stunned, "I don't know what Your Majesty means by this?" ”

"Humph! Why? Liu Che sneered, "You really don't know anything?" ”

Liu Che pointed to the little yellow door beside him and said, "You come on!" ”

"No!" Xiao Huangmen answered, and looked at Luan Da, "General Tiandao, the little slave has been staring at you since a few days ago, and today is not too late, you went to the beach alone, bought this big fish in the hands of a nearby fisherman, and then hid behind the reef and stuffed the white cloth in your hand into the mouth of the fish, and when the white cloth entered the belly of the fish, you hurriedly came to His Majesty's palace with the big fish in your hand." ”

Xiao Huangmen's words made Luan Da's face turn from white to yellow, from yellow to black, and when Xiao Huangmen's words were spoken, Luan Da's face was already like ashes, and he collapsed to the ground without saying a word.

"There is Li Shaoweng in the front, and you Luan Da in the back!" Liu Che's face was pale, and hatred poured out word by word, "Is it really so deceitful?" ”

"Your Majesty..."Luan Da was excited, climbed to Liu Che's feet and begged for mercy: "Your Majesty, the minister still has the elixir, and there is also the elixir to be dedicated to Your Majesty!" ”

Liu Che raised his foot and kicked, "Xiandan!" Elixir! You dare to tell me about the elixir! Liu Che cursed angrily, "If I don't break your body into thousands of pieces, it will be difficult to calm the anger in my chest!" ”

"Someone!" Liu Che called the guards loudly, and Luan Da saw this and leaned down to hug Liu Che's ankle and held on, "Your Majesty, for the sake of the eldest princess..."

Before Luan Da finished speaking, Liu Che was already furious, "Quick! Drag this thief out and cut him down! ”

"Your Majesty..."Luan Da was dragged out of the palace with a wail all the way, the sky outside the window gradually brightened, Liu Che walked to the couch dejectedly, "You all go down, Luan Da's matter, no one is allowed to mention it again!" ”

"No!" The little yellow door bowed its head and retreated.

----

Soon the story of the Heavenly Dao General Luan Da stumbling and drowning was spread, and the strange thing is that after the unfortunate death of the Heavenly Dao General who was the holy family of Zhenglong, the emperor did not express much grief, and within a few days, he set off on a holy drive and went to Chang'an, Kyoto.

After Luanda's incident, Liu Che's desire to seek immortals was hit, and he seemed to slowly understand that the so-called immortality may be just a floating cloud outside the sky after all, which is out of reach. On the way back to Beijing, it rained for several days, and Liu Che's mood became more and more depressed until he passed by the Junguo River.

When passing by the river, the gloomy sky suddenly cleared, the blue sky and white clouds were frivolous, Liu Che couldn't help but feel good when he saw this, so he went down to stay in the river for two more days. Seeing that the emperor's face, who had been calm for several days, was in a better mood, the people around Liu Che lost no time in flattering: "Your Majesty, this place is surrounded by auspicious clouds, and the blessed land is full of life, and there will be great auspiciousness in Your Majesty!" ”

"Da Xiangrui?" Liu Che smiled and said, "I'm looking forward to it!" ”

It was at this time that the local greeting official bowed to the ground and said: "Your Majesty, there is a woman here, who is twenty-eight years old, and her right hand has become a fist since she was born and cannot be opened. ”

"Oh? Is there such a thing? Liu Che was interested when he heard this, "Bring people to me to see." ”

Not long after, a beautiful woman was brought to the holy car, and Liu Che couldn't help but like it a little when he saw that this woman was slender and picturesque. When the woman stretched out her right hand, she saw her ordinary right hand curled up into a snow-white fist, Liu Che couldn't help but stretch out her hand to break it gently, something magical happened, the woman's right hand was actually broken, and there was a small jade hook hidden in the pink palm, the woman was overjoyed at the moment, kneeling down and saying: "Thank you, Your Majesty!" ”

"Your Majesty is really a blessed person!" Seeing this, the left and right knelt down and congratulated in unison: "Your Majesty is blessed!" ”

"Hahaha!" Liu Che laughed loudly, as the Son of Heaven, he has not been so happy for a long time, the sky is auspicious, the life of great blessing, he is the Ninety-Five Honor of the Heavenly Patrol.

"Get up!" Liu Che's gaze crossed the crowd and fell back to the woman in front of him, "What's your name?" ”

The woman on the ground replied respectfully: "Back to Your Majesty, the little girl Zhao Yan, the ancestor is the Zhao family." ”

Zhao Yan's answer was respectful and gentle, Liu Che couldn't help but look at it a few more times, only to see her black hair and sideburns and soft body, just as Shao Ling was dressed in cloth and hairpins, but she had a natural light spirit, "Raise your head!" Although Liu Che's tone was majestic, it was also soft.

Hearing this, Zhao Yan slowly raised her head, but saw that her skin was better than snow, her eyes were like clear water, her peach cheeks were powdered when she was looking forward to it, and the pear vortex smiled. Under a closer look, Liu Che couldn't help but feel an indescribable emotion in his heart, between his eyebrows and eyes, he looked like her, like the Yan'er he had never forgotten for so many years, and on the contrary, she was also called Zhao... Fascinating.

"Zhao Yan? Which word? Liu Che couldn't help but take a few steps closer and asked gently.

"Yan, Yanran's Yan..."Zhao Yan replied softly.

"Yan Ranxi smiled, beautiful eyes and looked forward to it." Liu Che praised with a smile, "Good name!" ”

The people who accompany the left and right are not idle, how can they not see the intentions of the holy driver, Zhao Yan was sent to the palace that night, Tang Mu changed his clothes and waited for the waiter, sure enough, Liu Che was very happy with such an arrangement.

The evening breeze blows, the tent in the hall rises and falls with the wind, and the beautiful sound in the brocade tent rises and falls.

"You know, you're like an old friend of mine...", the deep voice came slowly, full of memories of the past.

"Really?" The voice in response was full and vivid, "Where am I like her?" ”

"Where? Your eyebrows, these eyes, how similar... And this pear vortex..."The tone was slow, soft and affectionate, and the majesty of the king disappeared at this moment, replaced by endless memories and thoughts of the past, "When I first met her, she was as old as you, young and beautiful... Can you sing? ”

"I know how to sing, I don't know what song Your Majesty wants to hear?"

"Have you ever heard "The Pretty Woman's Song"?"

"There is a beautiful woman in the north, one looks at the city, and then the country..."The soft voice sang a few words in a low voice, stopped and said slowly, "Your Majesty said this song?" ”

"Not bad!" Liu Che closed his eyes slightly, with a smile on his slightly tired face, "This is exactly this song!" ”

In the dark night, the song sounded again, "There is a beautiful woman in the north, one cares about the city, and then the country, rather than knowing the city and the country, the beauty is hard to get..."The song is faint and soft, like a tent blown by the wind gently floating in the night, and like a star hiding in the clouds on the edge of the sky, slowly revealing a glimmer of light, Liu Che's heart was filled with soft emotions, with sadness and sweetness.

At the end of the song, Liu Che gently raised Zhao Yan's chin, and the slightly hot fingertips swept across her snow-white skin, and then met a pair of black starry eyes.

"Your Majesty...", there was shyness in the soft tone, like a water lotus, inheriting the tenderness of rain and dew. The tent hangs low, the double shadows merge, the wisps of fragrance float out from the gold furnace, curling and scattering in the air, the candle shadow is deep, the night is heavy, and the spring dream is without a trace.
