Shen Liangchen took Chu Changting all the way, and Chu Changting nested in Shen Liangchen's arms and said with a smile: "Where are you going to take me?" Shen Liangchen took away his arm, clamped Chu Changting, who was like a cat in his arms, and said with a smile: "I will get married on the twenty-eighth day of next month, taking advantage of my triumphant return this time, I will take you to the palace to meet the emperor to ask for blessings." ”

"Give... Blessing? Chu Changting gasped, "Where did anyone get married and find the emperor's blessing?" You are too dependent on the emperor's favor for you, right? ”

"You don't understand." Shen Liangchen still smiled, "If he is not the Son of Heaven and I am not a courtier, we are just ordinary brothers in the countryside." But now we can't get along like ordinary people because of the law of identity. ”

"It turns out that the emperor's family also has such intimate and sincere feelings." Chu Changting pouted, looking thoughtful.

"Why can't the emperor's family have emotions? It's just that it's hidden deeper, and it's not easy for others to notice. ”

"The emperor's feelings for you are really not hidden at all." Chu Changting remembered the doting joy in his eyes when Yi Lunhuan looked at Shen Liangchen in the main hall that day, and he felt an indescribable unease in his heart.

"If the feelings are deep enough to a certain extent, it is naturally impossible to hide them." Shen Liangchen remembered Yi Lunhuan's undisguised preference for him, the corners of his mouth rose, and there was childlike childishness in his eyes.

Chu Changting pursed his mouth again, and suddenly remembered the experience at the October Dynasty dinner last night, and grabbed Shen Liangchen's arm with some fear. Shen Liangchen noticed Chu Changting's strange appearance, lowered his head and rubbed Chu Changting's hairy little head with his chin, and then said with concern: "What's wrong?" ”

"Liangchen, there's something I want to tell you......" Chu Changting said with some trembling. At this moment, a group of people suddenly came in front of him, making Chu Changting swallow what he wanted to say alive. The father-in-law who was the leader took the people behind him to respectfully dismount and salute Shen Liangchen, and said in unison: "Welcome General Shen Liangchen to return triumphantly!" ”

Shen Liangchen should have experienced this kind of scene and nodded in greeting. Chu Changting thought that there were guards of honor on both sides of the way, why was there someone to pick her up here, she raised her head slightly and looked around, and found that she had arrived in front of the Wufeng Tower, and before that was the Taihe Gate to enter the palace. A gloomy sense of oppression came to her face, Chu Changting frowned and lowered her head, and there was an indescribable sense of depression pressing on her chest, making her feel sullen.

After the person in front of him finished the ceremony, he opened the way for Shen Liangchen, and Shen Liangchen pulled the reins of the horse, and Benjing BMW moved forward steadily, with a sense of sacredness and solemnity. Chu Changting also unconsciously straightened his body, looking at the road ahead and the overlapping red walls of the palace with some nervousness.

At this time, in the Qiankun Palace, Yi Lunhuan was sitting on the dragon chair in the center of the main hall, looking at the sunlight scattered at the door of the main hall, and he didn't know what he was thinking. It wasn't until Shen Liangchen walked in from outside the main hall with Chu Changting that he looked back at Shen Liangchen, and layers of sparkling ripples swirled in his phoenix eyes.

"Coming back?" Yi Lunhuan had already called everyone in the hall to retreat, and at this moment, only the three of them were in the hall, and Yi Lunhuan was a little more casual.

"I'm back." Shen Liangchen responded, pulling Chu Changting to kneel and salute. Yi Lunhuan realized that Chu Changting was also in the hall, twisted his eyebrows slightly, and then motioned for the two to get up. Then before Shen Liangchen could speak, he said, "Haven't you two already made a marriage on the twenty-eighth of next month, why did you come to me again?" ”

"Your Majesty, the time to come back this time is urgent, and I am afraid that the preparation of the wedding will be in a bit of a hurry, so I still want to ask the emperor for his blessing and bless the two of us with a smooth and safe wedding." Shen Liangchen clenched his fists and bowed his head, and Chu Changting also lowered his head behind him, never looking up at Yi Lunhuan from beginning to end.

"You are both blessed people, even if I don't bless, marriage... It will also be as usual. Yi Lunhuan seemed to be slightly annoyed by Shen Liangchen's rustiness, raised his eyebrows lightly, raised the teacup in front of him and took a sip, "Don't worry anymore, go back and prepare." ”

Shen Liangchen opened his mouth to say something, but when he saw Yi Lunhuan's pale face, he took it all back, he looked at Yi Lunhuan and was silent. After a while, Yi Lunhuan finished drinking the tea in the cup, then gently put the teacup on the table, took a deep breath, took a jade wrench from his hand, and motioned for Shen Liangchen to go over and take it.

Shen Liangchen strode forward and took the jade wrench with both hands, and then carefully studied it for a while, Yi Lunhuan slowly spoke: "This jade wrench inlaid with the East Pearl of the Beihai Sea should be regarded as the mascot I gave to the two of you for the wedding, suppress those filthy and demonic things, and hurry back to arrange your marriage." I'm a little tired today, and I don't plan to make a big deal about your celebration feast. As long as you enter the palace tomorrow to have a few drinks with me, it will be the last time you stay in the palace before you get married. ”

Shen Liangchen was slightly stunned, and suddenly felt a little sad, he knelt straight and said loudly: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live—" Chu Changting also knelt on the ground with Shen Liangchen, and there were unspeakable emotions blocking her chest, making her feel slightly suffocated.

After Shen Liangchen left the palace with Chu Changting. Yi Lunhuan picked up the pot and poured himself another cup of tea, and then let out a long, long sigh, the ethereal voice floated in the air along with the dust, and then shattered in all directions.

"If I don't have a soulmate, what's the use of me wanting this long live?"

I have a love across the mountains and seas......

Then I will step on this mountain and sea, and I will love it.

When Shen Liangchen and Chu Changting walked away, Yi Lunhuan beckoned gently: "Mei Rong." ”

"Yes." Mei Rong slowly walked out of the screen behind him, and the eunuchs and palace maids on the side all retreated with amusement - the emperor had an order, once the emperor called the Mei family to serve in front of the palace, everyone had to leave.

"I wondered, is it possible to choose a concubine?" Yi Lunhuan habitually rubbed his jade wrench, but found that it had been given to Shen Liangchen, and his eyes dimmed imperceptibly. Mei Rong was stunned when she heard this, and the brown and yellow pupils in the phoenix's eyes were bottomless: "The emperor is the son of heaven, the honor of the ninety-five, when to choose a concubine, it is up to the emperor to decide." ”

Yi Lunhuan didn't make a sound when he heard it, and after a long time, he said slowly in a muffled voice: "You go and personally supervise this matter." The girls of each family have been carefully selected by me. ”

Mei Rong nodded: "Then the queen's candidate, does the emperor have a choice?" ”

"Empty." Yi Lunhuan pursed his lips, and a trace of yin owl crossed his eyes, "In addition, the envoy of the Southern Barbarians, it is time for them to meet me." Tonight, Yongqing Palace, I will meet them for a while. But remember not to tell anyone. ”

"Yes." Mei Rong bowed her head in agreement, and then quickly disappeared outside the main hall.

戌時.

Yi Lunhuan sat on the dragon chair, the candle flame flickering, and his face could not be seen clearly.

The woman from the Nanban was short in stature and had a dull complexion, but her figure was as enchanting as a water snake, and every step seemed to be on the tip of a man's heart. The forehead of the hair is pulled back in a bun, and the hair is wrapped in a bun with dark black gold-trimmed silk to form a fusiform at the front and back. The dark green gauze half-covered the face, revealing a pair of dark brown eyes like glass beads. Dressed in a tender goose yellow cardigan, showing a brown plane flower in the middle, surrounded by a hundred birds and phoenixes on both sides, the well-developed twin peaks stand proudly, as if to break through the thin layer of fabric; He wears bright flower straight-leg pants with precise stitches embroidered with light orange phoenix flowers, and his two long and thin legs are well-proportioned and beautiful. Outside, there is a brown duck down coat. She and the other two women bowed to the ground, swept down the thick eyelash brush, Yi Lunhuan clenched his fists, and said coldly: "Get up." ”

"Emperor Xie Bei Tianzhuo, I wish the emperor a long life." The woman got up, her voice sweet and greasy, like a phoenix flower that had been quenched with poison. She bowed her head slightly, and the corners of her mouth curled into a nonchalant smile.

Yi Lunhuan looked at this woman carefully and felt that her identity was not ordinary. The woman met his tentative gaze and spoke again: "I am the princess of Nanyaoyue Kingdom, Huang Lingfeng. ”

The spirit of the phoenix, a long return. I think slowly, and it will never backfire. When will you fly?

Yi Lunhuan's eyes rippled round by circle, and he suddenly felt that this princess was a little interesting, so he looked at her playfully and asked, "Then do you have small characters, called Peiying?" ”

"The emperor of the Northern Heavenly Burning Kingdom is really knowledgeable and talented, and this princess really admires it." Huang Lingfeng's eyes widened slightly in surprise.

"It's just an allusion to the phoenix flower." Yi Lunhuan waved his hand slightly, and his face returned to his previous cold appearance, "Say, what is the purpose of this trip." Is it just to assassinate the daughter of the Prime Minister's family? Speaking of this, a cloud of anger suddenly rose in Yi Lunwan's eyes, and anger poured out from the tips of his eyes and spread throughout his face.

Huang Lingfeng pursed her lips lightly, and said a little coquettishly: "That person who doesn't have a brain is not sent out by me, it is she herself who thinks crazy every day, and hates the beautiful woman in the sky, presumably the emperor has taught her a good lesson for me." After closing the words, Huang Lingfeng raised his head, and his two snake-like eyes looked at Yi Lunhuan fixedly.

It's bold. Yi Lunhuan frowned slightly.

"She took advantage of such a big day as the October Dynasty to assassinate the prime minister's daughter, and I have already sent someone to correct her on the spot." Yi Lunhuan picked up the Runsang Mountain Gardenia tea on the table and took a sip gently, and a casual tone of indifference made Huang Lingfeng clench his fists but it was not easy to attack, so he could only pull the corners of his mouth and say with a smile: "I, a subordinate, is reckless and unlucky, and I don't deserve any pity." However, Emperor, the purpose of my trip is not to seek war, but to seek peace. ”

"Oh?" Yi Lunhuan raised her eyelids and motioned for her to continue.

Huang Lingfeng pursed his lips and said: "I also ask the emperor to give me the marriage of Shen Liangchen, the general of the Northern Heavenly Burning Kingdom, and I guarantee on behalf of the Southern Yaoyue Kingdom that I will not invade again in this life." ”

Yi Lunhuan raised his eyes suddenly, and the yin owl in his eyes was as vicious as a snake and scorpion.

For a long time, a cold smile appeared on his face.

Prime Minister's Office.

Chu Changting was lying on the table, and the tea on the side had already cooled for most of it.

"It's hard at night, so Miss should rest early." Xun'er came from outside the door, walked to Chu Changting with a pot of freshly brewed boiling tea, and then replaced the old tea with new tea for her, "Miss, wait for this soothing tea to cool down again, drink it, go and rest." ”

"Xun'er, I can't sleep." Chu Changting raised his furry head, which was already a little messy, stretched out his hand to pull Xun'er's sleeve, and said a little heavily, "The wedding date is getting closer and closer, but I always don't know why...... For some reason, I was anxious and annoyed for no reason. I should have been happy to see him when I came back today, but somehow I was so depressed now. ”

"Miss is anxious about the wedding date, this is a mistake that everyone will make, always worried that something will go wrong, in fact, nothing will happen." Xun'er poured the tea and held Chu Changting's hand with her backhand, "It's good that Miss is waiting to be married into the door." ”

Chu Changting smiled bitterly, she had experienced so many fights and killings these days, and her heart was no longer as open as before, she didn't know why, when she came back from the palace today, looking at Shen Liangchen's happy appearance, she never told him about her danger at the banquet in the October Dynasty, for fear of disturbing his interest.

What are you afraid of, and what are you looking forward to?

Who was the one who harmed her, and who was the one who saved her?

Chu Changting's eyes looked straight into the distance, and suddenly two lines of tears slipped down, and she hurriedly wiped them away and didn't want Xun'er to see it. After a long time, she took the tea a little numbly and drank it all, then got up and lay down on the bed, and after Xun'er made the bed for her and left, she turned over and closed her eyes, and there were two lines of tears.

In the dream, a thin figure gradually drifted away, Chu Changting wanted to chase but couldn't move, just when she was crying and shouting anxiously, the figure suddenly turned around, she wiped away her tears and looked at it, Shen Liangchen looked at her with tenderness.

"You, don't go......"
