Chapter 281, Picking Up People
"You only need a little blood in the heart of the palace master."
When Cijing heard this, he thought he had misheard, and asked, "What?" ”
King Youquan kindly repeated it again, still smiling and amiable, as if he was not talking about the hard work of the mirror, but only borrowing a small thing from her.
"King, don't you know that there is no difference between taking the blood of the heart and taking the life of a concubine?" Ci Jing endured his anger and asked with a smile.
King Youquan chuckled, stretched out his hand and pointed at the wizard next to him, Mr. Zhou, and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Zhou will protect your life." ”
"The king, the concubine only has this little life, and I don't know what kind of magical powers Mr. Zhou has, so I don't dare to agree to the king, if the king wants to force it, you can try it, but the king also has to think about what the consequences will be." Cijing's tone was light, and his voice was clear and cold, with an air of contempt.
However, I thought that King Youquan could cultivate such a rude and willful daughter as Praruo, and his patience was also first-class, so I saw that he said unhurriedly: "Cijing Palace Master, you don't believe in the widow and Mr. Zhou, this is excusable, the widow can give you a guarantee, if you unfortunately die in this worship, the widow will devote the power of the entire Western Regions to protect your Luming Palace." ”
Cijing took a deep breath, pressed the idea of beating King Youquan in his heart, and said: "King, the concubine is from the Central Plains, there is no need to put your life aside for your Youquan country, Luming Palace is indeed a concubine entrusted by the deceased husband, but the deceased husband told the concubine before his death, if the concubine is unwilling, he can leave, he said let the concubine live well, and live his part, the concubine is a reluctant life, and he must live, many rudeness today, please forgive the king." ”
After saying that, she ignored the faces of King Youquan and Mr. Zhou, and turned around to leave, but as soon as she reached the door, two soldiers showed their knives to block her way.
Cijing closed his eyes, turned around and laughed instead of anger, and said, "So the king plans to forcibly leave the concubine?" ”
King Youquan said: "The master of the Mirror Palace doesn't need to be angry, the widow has said it, Mr. Zhou will not let you die." ”
A bunch of foul language that Cijing learned from Widow Zhao in the capital all rushed to the side of his teeth, and he was about to vomit out, but Mr. Zhou on the side took off the hood on his head, revealing a face that made all beings lose color.
A dull pain suddenly came from Cijing's chest, and the hand in his sleeve suddenly clenched into a fist.
"Sure enough, it's you." Somehow, she showed a very helpless smile, she raised her head, and said, "Mr. Zhou, what are you doing this for?" What are you and Wuyi fighting for? Linglong will not come back. ”
Zhou Chenghan's expression did not move, there was still a faint smile on his lips, with a bit of compassion, he said: "Miss Cijing, I have been living in this world for hundreds of years in order to fulfill this wish, and now I finally have the opportunity to fulfill my long-cherished wish, and I refuse to let go of the opportunity. ”
His voice was as warm as nephrite, but with a hint of charm, and he listened to it in the mirror, and he actually nodded subconsciously.
However, she soon realized that something was wrong, pinched herself, came back to her senses, and sneered: "If Mr. Zhou has this ability, why don't you go directly to the Central Plains Palace to rescue a few princes and princesses?" ”
King Youquan glanced at Zhou Chenghan, Zhou Yuanhan's expression remained unchanged, and he smiled faintly: "I can save them for a while, but I can't protect them for a lifetime, so I can only pray to the witch god." ”
Cijing thought to himself, is Linglong still there? If she knew that Zhou Yuhan had become what he was now, would she still like him?
The dull pain in her chest became worse and worse, as if a giant hammer was slamming into her chest one by one, and she pursed her lips, not wanting to stay here for a moment, so she said, "Let me think about it again." ”
King Youquan waved his hand to let the soldiers guarding the door make way, Cijing stabilized his mind, out of the palace of Youquan Wang, she let out a long breath, turned around and was about to leave, someone behind her suddenly put a cloak on her, Cijing suddenly felt warm both physically and mentally, she reached out to tie the cloak, Guiyue walked to her side, and said, "Why have you stayed so long today?" ”
"On the seventh day of the second month, King Quan wants to sacrifice to the witch god, so let me take a little blood to make a sacrifice for him."
"Nonsense!"
Ci Jing glanced at him in surprise, feeling that it was very fresh, and Rosemoon would be angry for her.
Guiyue glanced at her and said, "Is this Youquan King old and confused or driven crazy by the imperial court, no matter how powerful you are, you are still a mortal fetus, can you still live if you take your heart's blood?" What's the difference between that and taking your life? ”
"yes, that's what I said." Cijing nodded and said, seeing Guiyue's angry appearance, she actually felt strangely in a better mood, even if King Quan and Zhou Luhan wanted her life, she felt that it didn't matter, as if she was sure that she would not die.
Guiyue looked at her graceful appearance, thinking that she had the bottom in her heart, so she was also slightly relieved, and scolded in her heart that this stinky girl must be looking for him to be happy.
Cijing said: "The person I lost that day was really Zhou Yuhan, that guy looked like a dog, and now he is actually a wizard from Youquan Country, that is, he proposed some bad idea of sacrifice to King Youquan, I suspect that he was the one who instigated King Youquan to let Princess Panruo go to kiss." ”
Thinking of this, something seemed to flash in her mind, and she hurriedly said: "That's the case, there may be two things in this world that can resurrect Linglong, the same is the blood of ten thousand people, and the same is my blood that is integrated into Linglong's bones, Wuyi and Zhou Yuhan each take one of them." ”
"If Zhou Yuhan chose your heart's blood, why did he let Princess Praruo go to kiss?" Rosemoon asked suddenly.
This is indeed a problem.
"It's only six days until the seventh day of the second month, so I won't really be taken away by him and sacrificed, right?"
Rosemoon gave her a pitying look.
Cijing held his face, "I'm a young widow, and I haven't had time to marry Ah Qi yet!" ”
Rosemoon: "......"
Hurry back to the capital and become your pro!
At this time, Sun Xian Lian, who was far away in the capital, couldn't help but sneeze, Yan Nu quickly closed the window that the wind had opened a crack in, and brought a coat to Sun Xian Lin to put on, Sun Xian Lin glanced at him strangely, and felt that Yan Nuan didn't seem to go to the Hou Mansion to find tassels much recently, and he was dangling in front of him all day long.
After the resignation of the mirror left, the emperor did not know who blew the pillow wind, and actually gave him an important position, he was the prince of Wanhai County, and he would inherit the title as an idle county king, and the emperor also felt that he was capable but not ambitious, and he was high, and he would not threaten his throne like his father. After the last time the eldest prince was demoted, Hu Youneng, the right minister who followed the eldest prince, was also imprisoned for corruption and bribery, and he will be beheaded after this autumn, and the position of the right minister has been vacant, and Sun Xianlian was forcibly pulled up.
Sun Xian Lin looked at the pile of excerpts in front of him - the excerpts presented by the hundred officials, the emperor gave him a part, Sun Xian Lin was silent at the time, but he couldn't help but be frightened in his heart, what did the emperor mean by suddenly showing favor to him? Is there someone behind it?
Although the content written on these folds is not tight, and they are all trivial things, and those people have to write an excerpt to talk about it, but Sun Xian still read it patiently, commented carefully, leaned back on the chair, sighed, and saw that Yan Nuan was still waiting on the side, so he joked to him: "Yan Nush, when will you and Tassel get married?" Have you been hired? ”
Yan Nuan didn't expect Sun Xian Lin to suddenly ask him this, he and Tassel had indeed not been in touch for a few days, and he actually missed it very much in his heart, but he panicked when he thought of what Cuinong said last time, and thought that he had to take care of his young master more dedicatedly and win back the young master's trust.
So he shook his head and said, "The young master hasn't married yet, so Yannuma is not in a hurry." ”
When Sun Xian Lin heard this, he thought of what he had said to him before Ci Jing left, and he couldn't help but feel warm in his heart, and his smile slowly opened like a ripple at the corner of his mouth. ”
Before Yan Nuan could reflect on the meaning of the phrase "it's almost there", Sun Xian Lin continued: "You let people send these folds to the palace." ”
Sun Xian Lin suddenly paid homage to the prime minister, and there were many more guests in the county king's mansion, Sun Xian was so annoyed that he found another courtyard, and usually went to live in another courtyard when he had nothing to do, and handed over all the "guests" who came to play the autumn breeze to his father.
The layout of this courtyard is similar to the previous mirror residence, the mirror likes the flourishing plants and trees more than the flowers, so he planted a lot of green plants in the courtyard, there is a hundred-year-old tree in the courtyard, verdant as a cover, sprinkle a large shade in the courtyard, under the tree is a gazebo, the pavilion is above the small pond, a pond of colorful koi in the small pond, shaking the head and tail, very honest and lovely.
And the fat fox Liuli lay on the edge of the pond, staring at the pond of koi fish with a thick tail, and heard the sound of Sun Xian Lin entering the door, it jumped up and jumped into Sun Xian Li's arms, Sun Xian Lin caught it, this fat guy seemed to sink a little more, I don't know if I can hold it in the future.
He sat in the courtyard for a while, and was about to enter the house, a gray pigeon flapped its wings and landed on the crossbar of the pavilion, Sun Xian Lin took off the letter paper, saw the content of the letter, two eyebrows wrinkled slightly, Liuli seemed to notice something, rubbed him, Sun Xian Lin came back to his senses, reached out and touched its head, and said, "Your master may be in trouble." ”
The letter came out a few days ago from the secret guard he sent, and the content was naturally a few days ago, and it was written that Cijing was summoned into the palace by King Youquan, and there was an extra guest in Luming Palace.
Sun Xian Lin helped Liuli smooth her hair for a while, Liuli blinked a pair of blue eyes, and rubbed him again, Sun Xian Lin lowered his head and said with a smile: "Shall we go and pick her up?" ”
