Sun Xian sat up, habitually rubbed his eyebrows, there was a maid standing outside the door, knock on the door three times, Sun Xian Lin got up and opened the door, the maid saw him, blushed in an instant, Sun Xian Lin smiled politely, brought the food box in the maid's hand, and said "Thank you".

The maid walked away with a red face, and Sun Xian closed the door again, and after washing up, she opened the food box. There was a plate of jade steamed buns in the food box, and two other dishes of vegetarian side dishes, he smiled bitterly and sat down at the table.

It was a rare sunny day outside the window, but the entire Luming Palace was shrouded in a gloomy atmosphere.

Yu Yan, the palace master of Luming Palace, died three days ago, when she left, there was a continuous drizzle in the sky, according to those disciples of Luming Palace, it is rare for such lingering rain to fall in the desert, probably because the heavens are also crying for the palace master. The disciples of Luming Palace didn't know that the palace master in previous years was fake, but they just thought that the palace master had been poisoned during the period of disappearance, his face was aging, and his life was over, and they all sighed for it.

Yu Yan walked very quietly, Yu Ying was by her side, she was not sick or injured, but she was just like an old man, even if you were not sick or sick, you would still have to die when the time came.

It was already March of the following year, and a letter came from the Central Plains, urging him to go back, and Sun Xian remembered that he had not returned home for nearly half a year, and he had promised that the old man would return to the Thousand Absolute Cliff in half a year.

He got up and was about to say goodbye to Yu Ying'a, he didn't go far, and saw Su Lingling standing under the red pillar not far away in white, he approached, Su Lingling turned around, pursed his lips and raised a chuckle, and said, "Morning." ”

Sun Xian Lin also replied, "Morning", and Su Lingling said again: "There are guests in the palace today, and Ah Ci and Yu Xiaogongzi have gone to receive the guests." ”

Sun Xian nodded silently, "I plan to leave for the Central Plains tomorrow, when will you go back?" ”

"I'll go back with you." Su Lingling lowered his head, "Originally, I also came here for you all the way. ”

Before Sun Xian could speak, she said again: "You don't have to feel ashamed of me, I won't blame you, I do what I want, and I hope you can live according to your heart." ”

She turned around, the corners of her white clothes made a slight rustling sound, Sun Xian lowered her head, and saw that the edge of her skirt was embroidered with heavy red cherry blossoms, and from a distance it looked like a side of the sky at sunset.

The guest who came to Luming Palace this time was an envoy from the Izumi Kingdom who came to collect the palace spices in the spring of this year. The envoy is the little prince of the Youquan royal family, who is about twenty years old, and is handsome and well-eyed, but he is arrogant and virtuous who does not look at people squarely, and he is ten thousand picky in doing things, Yu Ying originally planned to entertain him personally, but he was tired halfway, Ah Ci asked him to go back and rest, and leave the rest to her.

On the way back, the maid secretly said to Ah Ci: "Girl, this little prince used to like the palace master, but the palace master didn't want to see him, because he didn't see the palace master today, so he was trying to make things difficult. ”

Ah Ci nodded, and came to the patio while speaking, Ah Ci didn't know before, and then the maid told her that this patio was used to entertain distinguished guests, and the high platform in the center of the patio was a place for singing and dancing. Ah Ci sat down in his seat, and the little prince of Youquan Country sat on one side, holding a wine glass and watching a group of green-clothed dancers on the high platform Nana dance.

Noticing that Ah Ci was seated, he turned his head and said, "I don't know in what capacity the girl is sitting in the position of the palace master?" ”

A quiet and gentle smile bloomed on Ah Ci's lips, and said lightly: "Back to His Royal Highness, the little woman is the unmarried wife of the palace master, and today the palace master is unwell, so the little woman will accompany His Royal Highness on behalf of the palace master, and please forgive His Highness for the faux pas." ”

"Your Highness heard that the former palace master Yu died of a violent illness, and I don't know if it's true or not? When I went to see the girl in His Royal Highness, she was fine. Banli said with a frown.

Ah Ci smiled again, "Your Highness is tired, don't hide it from Your Highness, my sister has always been in good health, but unfortunately she was victimized by thieves, she was poisoned by Gu in her body, there is no medicine to treat, and she died at a young age, which can be described as jealousy." ”

Yu Yu wiped his eyes, and looked at her with a frown, "You lie, although Miss Yu is young, she is excellent in martial arts, how can she be easily victimized by thieves?" ”

"Your Highness," Ah Ci interrupted him, "You only know that my sister is young and has excellent martial arts, but also knows that outsiders are outside the mountains?" ”

After a pause, he turned his head angrily and continued to sing and dance in the stands, Ah Ci watched it for a while, and felt bored, thinking that Yu Ying was better, but he had to accompany the prince like this.

The night passed, the prince left the Luming Palace with spices, Ah Ci was tired in the middle of the night, but the next day he still got up early in the morning, the maid sent a letter over, saying that Sun Xian Lin and Su Lingling had left, Ah Ci read the letter, was silent for a long time, and asked the maid: "What about Mr. Tsing Yi and Peony Peach?" ”

"They didn't go."

Ah Ci nodded when she heard this, Yu Yan promised her before her death, Tsing Yi promised her that she would try her best to heal Yu Ying and would not miss any opportunity to save him, Peony and Xiao Tao took the initiative to ask to stay, Peony became very interested in incense refining, and stayed in the incense room day after day to learn incense refining with her disciples. Xiao Tao, on the other hand, prefers to learn martial arts, and soon mingles with a group of male disciples.

Ah Ci also intermittently knew the life history of the sisters, thinking that she still took in the two sisters, she lay on the mahogany railing and looked downstairs Xiao Tao was holding a long knife higher than her and struggling to wave towards a male disciple, the male disciple laughed and dodged, Xiao Tao pounced, the bulky long knife took her whole person over, fell heavily to the ground, Xiao Tao sat on the ground for a while, wiped her eyes and stood up again, and waved to the male disciple again.

Tsing Yi didn't know when he appeared beside him, Ah Ci turned his head, and Tsing Yi was also looking down at Xiao Tao downstairs.

"Xiao Tao still wants to take revenge in her heart, after all, she is still young, so she can only wait for her to think about it slowly in the future."

"The whole clan was wiped out, how can such a deep hatred be easily let go?" Tsing Yi said slowly, Ah Ci looked up at him, but Tsing Yi stopped talking, and the two were speechless for a while.

The noon sun became stronger and stronger, and Xiao Tao downstairs was tired of practicing knives, and immediately a group of people brought her food, Ah Ci stood and looked at it for a while, and decided to go back to see Yu Ying.

Tsing Yi suddenly said: "Take in the peony peach, have you ever thought that it will lead to death?" ”

Ah Ci's eyes suddenly widened.

Tsing Yi smiled, "You, you always only think about your own wishes in front of you, and you think that people have only lived in this world for a few decades, why don't you live as you like, why do you have to embarrass yourself?" But have you ever wondered if you will cause trouble to others when you live as you wish? ”

Ah Ci frowned, "Isn't it time for you to be willful in Tsing Yi, senior?" ”

Tsing Yi shook his head, "No, maybe it can be said that I don't have the opportunity to do it willfully." ”

He turned around and left, and looked at Xiao Tao downstairs again, Xiao Tao and Peony had Heart Devouring Gu on their bodies, she didn't understand how powerful the Heart Devouring Gu was, but she could easily kill a martial arts master, like this kind of thing, how dangerous it is, how big the temptation is.

She pursed her lips, she can't hurt Yu Ying anymore because of her so-called kindness, it was because of her curiosity that Yu Ying was hit twice, if it weren't for that time, Yu Ying wouldn't be like this now.

Ah Ci returned to the room, Yu Ying had already gotten up, sitting by the bookcase and reading a book, Ah Ci approached and found that it was a collection of shutters.

Seeing Ah Ci coming, Yu Ying put down the book and said with a smile: "Sister Ah Ci, I feel a lot better today, in fact, the words of the senior in Tsing Yi are not very credible, didn't he say last time that if I fall down again, I won't be able to get out of bed again?" I'm not good now, maybe I'll not die if I'm good, and I'll survive? ”

Ah Ci was also overjoyed when he heard this, and said, "Yes, I used to have a big brother who was very good to me, and he ...... He was seriously injured, and later he was poisoned, and even Brother Sun's master thought that he would not survive, but there was a medical saint grandfather who cured him, but he could not practice martial arts in the future. ”

Yu Ying's eyes lit up slightly, Ah Ci sat down beside him, and said, "When you are better, I will go to the holy grandfather of the doctor." ”

Yu Ying frowned, "Then forget it, how can I rest assured that you are alone......"

"It's okay, I'm not the three-legged cat kung fu Ah Ci I used to be, you believe me." Ah Ci rubbed his head, but these words did not put Yu Ying at ease, Ah Ci pursed his lips and said: "Ah Ying, as long as there is a chance, I will not let it go, not to mention that this is not a matter of nine deaths, I just went to find someone." ”

"What if I die before you find anyone?"

"What nonsense?" Ah Ci subconsciously wanted to pat him on the head, but in the end he just stroked it lightly and said, "You are not allowed to say such things." ”

Yu Ying turned her head, and Ah Ci stood up, "I'll go make you dinner." ”

"Sister Aci," Yu Ying grabbed her wrist, "Just let the maid cook dinner, can you accompany me more?" ”

He looked up at her, Ah Ci looked back at his dark eyes, sighed, and sat down again, "Okay, I'll accompany you." ”

Ah Ci was thinking about how to send away the peony and the little peach, but seeing them happy every day, after all, he still couldn't bear it, but Lu Ming Palace had a very peaceful life in the past half a month, nothing happened, Yu Ying's spirit was much better, and occasionally went to the incense room with Ah Ci to refine incense, he taught Ah Ci to refine yellow sorghum a dream, Ah Ci failed many times, and I don't know how many bottles of incense were wasted in a day.

"I think it's better to forget it, I don't have the talent to refine incense, my nose can only be used to smell the fragrance of food, today the maid's sister made egg soba noodles."

When the two went to dinner, the maid served two bowls of egg soba noodles.

Yu Ying stroked her forehead, "Sister Aci, your nose ......"

Ah Ci stuffed noodles in his mouth and asked vaguely, "What's wrong with my nose?" ”

“…… Dog nose. ”
