Chapter 136: No White Plums
What else can Chu Chaohuan do, she is nothing more than a little sad, now everyone knows that she is going to enter Yan State as a concubine, and the relationship between Chu State and Yan State is so good, she is the prince of Chu State, but he Emperor Yan does not go, isn't this slapping him in the face of Chu State and slapping him Chu Chaohuan's face?
What her father did was indeed a bit sorry for Yan Guo, but it had happened, the wedding date was approaching, if he really didn't go on that day, where could she still hold her head up in front of all the guests?
Chu Chaohuan took a deep breath and said in a calm and peaceful voice as much as possible, "I want you to go that day." ”
Yan Chi lifted his eyelids lightly and raised his head to look at her.
Chu Chaohuan said, "I will also send a letter to Emperor Zhao and invite her to participate." ”
Yan Chi frowned, "Don't tire her, the Yan Kingdom and the Chu Kingdom in December are very cold, she is a southerner, she can't stand such a cold, bumpy back and forth, what if she gets sick?" I just go. ”
Hearing that Yan Chi agreed, Chu Chaohuan was not happy at all.
He is not for her, he is for Zhao Huaiyan.
But even if she was unhappy, she didn't say anything, as long as Yan Chi agreed and fulfilled the face of her Chu State, it would be fine.
Chu Chaohuan didn't stay any longer, nodded at Fo Guang, and retreated.
As soon as I went out, I faced the cold wind of November, and my heart was cold.
She folded her hands around her shoulders and rubbed her body.
Guan Ling immediately draped the fox fur she brought on her and asked, "Did Emperor Yan agree?" ”
Chu Chaohuan nodded, "Hmm." ”
Guan Ling said, "Why does the princess still look sullen?" ”
Chu Chaohuan felt sad in her heart, people, are they not satisfied with the status quo, when she had no guesses with Yan Chi, she wanted to be his bride, and now she can be his bride, she wants his heart again, and when she gets his heart, what does she want? Do you want him to be single-minded, for a lifetime, or even for his sole favor?
Chu Chaohuan curled the corners of her mouth and smiled self-deprecatingly, grabbed the collar of the fox fur with both hands, raised her head to meet the cold moon in November, the white plum fragrance from Yunxue Mountain in the wind, and the extravagant and luxurious atmosphere of the royal family of Yan Kingdom, she stood here, and suddenly felt a little out of place.
She knew she was pressing, but so what?
If love can't be mutually pleasing, don't you have to force it?
Chu Chaohuan swept out the little negative emotion in his heart, wrapped his hands around his shoulders, and walked down the steps when the fox fur was blown by the north wind.
After descending the steps, she went in the direction of the palace.
On the way, she replied to Guan Ling's words, "I am not depressed, but when I think of Zhao Huaiyan, I feel a little blocked in my heart." ”
Hearing this, Guan Ling didn't know how to answer, burning oil on the fire or disobeying her advice? It doesn't seem to be appropriate, so don't say anything, she pursed her lips, helped Chu Chaohuan, and said, "Today is November 23, and it is not a few days before the twelfth day of the lunar month, does the princess plan to leave for Chu State?" ”
Chu Chaohuan originally wanted to go back with Yan Chi, but thinking that Yan Chi could not go in advance, at most on the day of marriage, he went to show his face and drink a few glasses of happy wine.
He didn't advance, but she wanted to advance, it was her own brother, the crown prince of Chu.
Chu Chaohuan nodded, "I have to go back early, and when it's twenty-five, let's go." ”
Guan Ling said, "Okay, I'll prepare it in the next few days." ”
Chu Chaohuan said "um", and the two of them gradually disappeared into the north wind.
The days passed quickly, and Hou Yan didn't go to Zhao Huaiyan again that night, Zhao Huaiyan waited for an hour the first night, and when he saw that the man didn't come, he slept with confidence.
Yun Ling stayed in Zhao State, and the next day he lived, he went to the imperial tomb to meet Zhao Xian.
It's not right to say that he will meet, he is a spirit fox, even if Zhao Xian is the emperor of Zhao State, he can't get along with him, but now he lives in the palace of Zhao State, so he has to say hello anyway.
In the imperial mausoleum, he saw Yan Xingzhou and greeted him together.
Yan Xingzhou was very surprised, about the Snow Mountain Spirit Fox, the people of the royal family of the Eight Kingdoms had heard of it, but the opportunity to meet was very rare, especially after Yun Ling was Yun Feiyu, he had never seen it.
Yan Xingzhou touched his chin, indicating that he didn't understand, "Yun Ling? Isn't it a woman in my impression? ”
Yun Ling said, "Yes, but there was a little change in the middle. ”
Zhao Xian answered, "Mutation? ”
Zhao Xian and Yan Xingzhou glanced at each other, and the two old men showed that they didn't understand in their eyes, why did they change?
Zhao Xian wanted to ask, but Yun Ling didn't want to explain on this topic, so he changed the topic and said, "I want to live in the Zhao Palace for a while, can I see Xian Ruhua?" ”
Zhao Xian was stunned.
Yan Xingzhou was also stunned.
Zhao Xian said in a sad tone, "Ruhua has been dead for many years. ”
Yun Ling said, "I know, but with her tomb, I can see her." ”
When Zhao Xian heard this, he was overjoyed, "Really? ”
Yun Ling said, "Hmm. ”
Zhao Xian stood up and was about to take Yun Ling over.
Yan Xingzhou grabbed him, "What's the hurry, even if you can see it, it is also Yun Ling's sight, but you can't see it." ”
He looked at Yun Ling and asked, "Can we see her?" ”
Yun Ling shook his head, "No." ”
Zhao Xian's face fell with joy all of a sudden.
Yan Xingzhou was also extremely lost.
Yun Ling looked at them, in fact, he wanted to say that the creatures of the yang realm could not see the soul of the netherworld, even if it was his spirit fox clan, they did not have this ability to pass through the underworld, whether the witch clan had it or not, it was another matter, the reason why he was able to meet with Xian Ruhua was because both of them could understand the yellow line of the heavenly demon, and with this yellow line of the heavenly demon, not to mention the yellow spring, it was in the heavenly court and the demon world, and they wanted to meet, and there was a way.
But he couldn't say this to them, so he had to turn around indifferently.
Zhao Xian still took him there.
Xian Ruhua's tomb was cleaned very clean, and there was no dust on the tombstone.
Before Yun Ling sacrificed the Yellow Line of Heavenly Demons again, he asked Yun Xia to invite Zhao Xian away, and let Yun Xia set up an enchantment around him, so that no one could break in.
The Heavenly Demon Yellow Line is just a language in Bu Jingtao, and in front of Immortal Ruhua, it is just a language, or rather, a symbol, but in the hands of Yun Ling, it is no longer just a language, but an appeal.
The remnants in his hands were incomplete, and he couldn't fully understand the ancient things recorded in the language of the Heavenly Demon Yellow Line, so he had to ask Xian Ruhua where the other remnants were.
It's just that Xian Ruhua hasn't appeared yet, and the first volume of "Shocking Views of Words" that fell in Zhao Huaiyan's hands and the second volume of "Shocking Views of Words" that fell in Bu Jingtao's hands felt the echo of this strong same kind of atmosphere at the same time, exuding a black light, and then those tadpole-like words seemed to be about to break away from the paper and fly in a certain direction.
Zhao Huaiyan was slightly startled.
Bu Jingtao was also shocked, he was not in the palace today, but in the Taifu Mansion.
Taifu's mansion is very deserted, usually he is in the palace, or he follows Qin Zhi and goes abroad to do business, the reason why he is so idle today is because Qin Shuang is getting married, and the palace is busy with this matter, Qin Zhi is also taking care of this matter himself, so he is idle.
There was the fish tank in front of his desk.
The fish in the tank are sleeping in the water with their stomachs turned upside down.
When the tadpole breath of the demon yellow line detached from the book, it opened its eyes jubilantly, and then swished out of the water, jumped up, bit a string of words and ate it.
Bu Jingtao coldly popped out a finger, and the air current hit its stomach, knocking it back.
It screamed in pain, and the fish's eyes were big.
Bu Jingtao said coldly, "You can't eat it, you will change back to your original form." ”
The fish grinned at him, but was finally defeated by the broken body of the fish where he now lives, unable to move by the air currents of the waves, and watched as the words floated in the air and then vanished.
Bu Jingtao frowned slightly, stood up and walked out the door, and glanced somewhere.
Then, turning around, ask the fish, "Do you know where they disappeared?" ”
The fish's tail swept and swept towards Zhao Guo.
Bu Jingtao said, "It's so good, everything is going towards Zhao Kingdom, and the seal of Sword Emperor Jiuyang is not far from awakening, then, Demon Emperor Fanyou is also about to come out." ”
When the fish heard that Fanyou was going to come out, he was extremely excited, jumping up and down, stirring up the water and turning the world upside down.
Walking over and seeing it so jubilant, he couldn't help but pinch its fin and lift it up, "When he comes out, you will be free." ”
Then with a "flutter", it was thrown into the fish tank again.
Dusting off his sleeves, entering the palace, and going to see Qin Zhi.
Before Qin Shuang married the prince of Chu, the Qin State did the wedding event first, which is the same as the people, the woman did it first, and the man did it later, so Qin Zhi was busy these days, and it was the palace wedding banquet.
Qin Zhi didn't hand over this matter to anyone, he handled it inside and out.
When Bu Jingtao entered the palace to see him, he was meeting with officials from various departments, and the dormitory where the prince worked in the palace went in and out one by one, Qin Zhi saw Bu Jingtao and stretched out his hand to beckon, "Taifu." ”
Bu Jingtao shouted to the prince, greeted the officials from all walks of life, and walked in.
Qin Zhi said, "I was about to send someone to call you." ”
Bu Jingtao asked, "Is there something wrong with the prince?" ”
Qin Zhi said, "I thought about it, I think it's better to notify Senior Sister Yunling, and Zhu Xuanguang, if the imperial uncle is still alive, he will definitely inform him, this is a happy event for the royal family of the Qin State, he should call these two senior sisters and junior brothers, since the imperial uncle is gone, then this matter will be done by me." ”
After hearing this, Bu Jingtao raised his eyebrows slightly, but he felt that it was reasonable.
It's just that Zhu Xuanguang is pleased, Yun Ling......
Bu Jingtao said, "Yun Ling is in Yun Xue Mountain, I heard that Yun Xue Mountain is ethereal, even if I go to Snow Mountain, without the guidance of the Spirit Fox Clan, even if I stay in the Snow Mountain for the rest of my life, I will not see the Spirit Fox Clan, how can I inform Yun Ling?" ”
Qin Zhi got up, walked around a safe corridor, walked inside, and took out a box from a hidden mechanism.
He handed the box to Bu Jingtao.
Bu Jingtao asked, "What is it?" ”
Qin Zhi said, "You'll know when you see it." ”
Bu Jingtao took it and opened it, only to see a snow-white plum blossom branch lying in the box, and there was only one flower on the branch, snow-white and snow-white.
Step Jingtao wondered, "The prince's newly folded flowers?" ”
Qin Zhi said with a smile, "This is not something I folded, there are also white plums in the imperial garden of my Qin Imperial Palace, but there is no such variety, this is the key to entering Yunxue Mountain." ”
Bu was stunned for a moment, reached out and picked up the flower branch, and watched.
After looking at it several times, he was surprised, "Don't fall white plums." ”
Qin Zhi said, "Yes, except for Yunxue Mountain, there is no such variety in the next place." ”
Bu Jingtao packed the white plum branches, together with the box, and put them into the sleeve bag.
He arched his hand towards Qin Zhi, "The princess is married to Chu on the twelfth day of the twelfth month of the lunar month, and we are holding a wedding banquet on the eleventh, from the Qin country to Yunxue Mountain, at least ten days, more than fifteen days, and it will take half a month to go back and forth, in order not to delay time, I will set off today." ”
Qin Zhi said, "Go to Yan Kingdom first to inform Zhu Xuanguang, and then let Zhu Xuanguang accompany you to Yunxue Mountain." ”
Bu Jingtao raised his eyebrows slightly, indicating that he didn't understand.
Qin Zhi didn't explain, waved his hand, and let him go again.
Bu Jingtao returned to Taifu's mansion, simply changed his clothes, and before leaving, he took the fish tank away from the desk and placed it on the windowsill, then opened the window and said, "Look at the world more." ”
Bu Jingtao didn't know that Yun Ling had descended from Yunxue Mountain, and at this moment in the palace of Zhao State, he first set off to Yan Kingdom to find Zhu Xuanguang.
He was alone, so he rode a horse, and the speed was more than half that of a carriage.
In less than seven days, he arrived at the imperial capital of the Yan Kingdom.
He entered the imperial capital, led the horse, and went all the way to General Zhu's mansion to meet Zhu Xuanguang.
When Zhu Xuanguang heard him say that Qin Zhi invited him to Qin State and eat Qin Shuang's wedding banquet, he was still quite surprised, thinking, I am not familiar with Qin Shuang, and I am not friends with you Qin State, why did you come to invite me?
But when Bu Jingtao mentioned Qin Yi, Zhu Xuanguang immediately understood.
Zhu Xuanguang is the last disciple of Chang Sansheng so far, and at present, he is indeed Qin Yi's junior disciple.
Qin Yi is Qin Zhi's imperial uncle and Qin Shuang's imperial uncle.
Then he, the junior brother of the emperor's uncle of the Qin State, is also half of their imperial uncle.
Qin Zhi can almost come to invite him, it can be seen that he attaches great importance to it.
Zhu Xuanguang thought about it and didn't reply immediately, if he was just Qin Yi's junior brother, he would definitely agree without saying a word, but he is now an official in Yan State, and he is clear about the relationship between Yan State and Qin State, and before he goes, he still has to report to the emperor.
Zhu Xuanguang said, "I can't reply to you right away, I have to enter the palace and ask the emperor." ”
Bu Jingtao didn't embarrass him, and said, "Then I'll wait for you at the inn." ”
Zhu Xuanguang nodded.
Bu Jingtao said the name of an inn, so that Zhu Xuanguang went to him after he had an answer.
Zhu Xuanguang said yes, and after sending him away, he went into the palace to see Yan Chi.
As soon as Yan Chi heard this, his first reaction was also strange, and then he heard Zhu Xuanguang talk about Changsansheng and Qin Yi, and he understood slightly, he smiled and said, "Qin Zhi values him very much as an imperial uncle, and when he is gone, he will also invite his junior brother from the same teacher, probably in addition to you, he will also go to Yunxue Mountain to invite Yun Ling." ”
Zhu Xuanguang said, "It should be." ”
Yan Chi glanced at him and said, "There's nothing to worry about, you can go for a meal, remember to prepare a gift." ”
Zhu Xuanguang said, "Well, the minister understands. ”
Yan Chi waved his hand and signaled that he could go.
After Zhu Xuanguang left the imperial study, he did not leave the palace immediately, but went to the Tai Hospital to find Zhou Xiaochan.
Zhou Xiaochan has rarely gone to his mansion since she entered the Tai Hospital, she is busy during the day, and when she is free at night, he sneaked to the Zhou Mansion to see her, and was told by Yinglan and Ning Yue many times that she had rested, which shows that the work of the Tai Hospital is not easy.
Zhu Xuanguang found Zhou Xiaochan and told her that he was going to Qin State to participate in the wedding banquet of Qin Shuangcheng.
Zhou Xiaochan was puzzled, "The ninth princess of Qin Guo got married, what are you going to do to join in the fun?" ”
Zhu Xuanguang told Qin Yi about this relationship, and Zhou Xiaochan sighed, "You entered the palace to talk to the emperor about this?" ”
Zhu Xuanguang nodded, "Hmm." ”
Zhou Xiaochan asked, "The emperor agreed?" ”
Zhu Xuanguang said, "Yes." ”
Zhou Xiaochan said, "I'll go if I agree." ”
Zhu Xuanguang glanced at her, stopped talking for a long time, and still asked, "Do you want to go?" ”
Zhou Xiaochan was stunned.
Zhu Xuanguang glanced away slightly, and said uncomfortably, "I remember you said before, you want to travel around the world, hang the pot to help the world, if it weren't for your mother to leave, you wouldn't enter the Tai Hospital, tie yourself up here, you seem to be very tired recently, so I want to invite you to come with me, scatter your heart, relieve your fatigue, and see the mountains and rivers of Qin." ”
After Zhu Xuanguang said this, he felt very uncomfortable.
As if he was confessing.
But he really didn't confess to her, he just felt that Zhou Xiaochan didn't seem to have laughed since he entered the hospital.
She wasn't really happy.
It may not be the life she wants, but she has to move forward.
He wasn't sure if Zhou Xiaochan would agree, but he still had to say that this was his intention.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Xiaochan agreed after thinking for a short time.
Zhu Xuanguang said, "Then you take a leave of absence from the emperor and go back to the house to prepare." ”
Zhou Xiaochan said hello happily, turned around and returned to the Tai Hospital, and finished the matter at hand first.
Zhu Xuanguang left the palace and went to find Bu Jingtao.
Zhou Xiaochan finished the matter at hand, went to the imperial study, and said that she wanted to ask for leave and accompany Zhu Xuanguang to Qin State, Yan Chi was suddenly stunned, raised her eyebrows and looked at her, "You want to accompany Zhu Xuanguang to Qin State?" ”
Zhou Xiaochan smiled, "Hmm." ”
Yan Chi's thin lips pursed slightly, "His idea?" ”
Zhou Xiaochan said, "It's not counted, he just looked for me and asked me for my opinion, I wanted to go by myself, so I agreed." ”
Yan Chi glared at her, and complained to Zhu Xuanguang again, he said to Zhu Xuanguang last time, if you don't have love for Xiaochan, don't mess with her, is he the wind in his ears?
Yan Chi snorted, "If you want to go, I can still stop you?" Be careful when you go out, let Yinglan and Ning Yue accompany you, you tell Zhu Xuanguang that if he makes you have a mistake on the road, I will ask him! ”
Zhou Xiaochan smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will take care of myself, I am the daughter of the God of Medicine." ”
Yan Chi scolded her for being naughty, but let her go.
After Zhou Xiaochan, Zhu Xuanguang and Bu Jingtao left Yan Kingdom, they rushed to Yunxue Mountain non-stop, according to the guidance of Bai Meihua, they easily found the residence of Linghu, but they did not see Yun Ling, nor did they see Yun Feiyu, they only saw Yun Jiu, Yun Jiu saw the white plum blossom in Bu Jingtao's hand, naturally did not drive him away, but knew that they were looking for Yun Ling, so they said that Yun Ling was not on the mountain, and went down the mountain, either to Yan or to Zhao.
Bu Jingtao asked Zhu Xuanguang if Yan Guo had gone to a spirit fox, Zhu Xuanguang thought about it, shook his head and said no.
Bu Jingtao concluded that Yun Ling must have gone to Zhao State.
Why did the snow mountain spirit fox suddenly go down the mountain and go to Zhao Kingdom?
Bu Jingtao squinted his eyes, feeling that things were getting more and more interesting, he took Zhu Xuanguang and Zhou Xiaochan, as well as Yinglan and Ning Yue, to Zhao Kingdom.
After such a delay, when I arrived in Zhao State, it was already December.
In December, Zhao Guo has fully entered the atmosphere of the festival, everywhere is full of lights, the lights are bright at night, the people are sensational during the day, the streets of the imperial city are lively and extraordinary, the hustle and bustle, singing, juggling, street dancers, there are countless people.
Zhou Xiaochan was the first time to come back to Zhao Guo, and she couldn't take her eyes off it.
In the crowd of people, she was almost squeezed out, and Zhu Xuanguang immediately stretched out his hand and took her by the hand.
Zhou Xiaochan was too focused on the excitement of the outside world, and she didn't notice it at all, so she let Zhu Xuanguang lead her all the way to the palace of Zhao State.
Before entering the palace, she found that her palms were a little hot, and when she looked down, she saw that her hands were tightly held by Zhu Xuanguang, she was stunned at first, then her cheeks turned red, and she pulled her hand back with a swish.
Zhu Xuanguang's palm was empty, and he looked sideways.
Zhou Xiaochan raised her hand to brush her hair in disguise, "It's a little itchy." ”
Zhu Xuanguang pursed his thin lips lightly, um, and didn't say anything else.
Ying Lan and Ning Yue behind them laughed secretly.
Bu Jingtao glanced at the two of them, and withdrew his gaze expressionlessly.
The three of them were brought into the palace by the guards and led to the imperial study.
Zhao Huaiyan was so happy when she saw Zhou Xiaochan that she rushed to her and hugged her, and said happily, "I didn't expect me to see you in Zhao Kingdom, what a surprise!" ”
Zhou Xiaochan was also happy, hugged her with her backhand, and said with a smile, "I didn't expect that I would be able to come to Zhao State, and I would also go to Qin State!" What I saw and heard along the way was enough to get me excited for a long time. ”
Zhao Huaiyan teased her, "How many places have you just been, are you excited like this?" ”
Zhou Xiaochan snapped her fingers and said, "What are a few places, there are many places, when I went to Yunxue Mountain, I also passed through Chu State, and on the way to Zhao State, I also entered Pengji Guangzhou, and now it is Zhao State, and in a few days it will be Qin State, so I have traveled to many countries on this trip!" ”
Zhao Huaiyan said, "You also went to Yunxue Mountain?" ”
Zhou Xiaochan nodded, "Yes." ”
Zhao Huaiyan wondered, "What are you doing in Yunxue Mountain?" ”
Before Zhou Xiaochan could answer, Zhu Xuanguang took the lead and said, "Go find Yun Ling." ”
At this time, Zhao Huaiyan looked at Zhu Xuanguang.
Zhu Xuanguang also looked at her.
Dressed in a tailor-made imperial costume and wearing a crown, obviously because she saw Zhou Xiaochan, her eyes were smiling, she looked extremely happy, and her face was soft, but it was difficult to ignore the majesty that she swept with that glance.
Zhu Xuanguang thought to himself, she was no longer the Zhao Wuming.
She's a true emperor.
Zhu Xuanguang was concerned in his heart, and he couldn't tell how he felt.
After he knew that she was a woman, he always wanted to see her look in women's clothes, and it turned out to be like this.
Beauty cannot be coveted, and far away cannot be climbed.
But fortunately, Zhao Huaiyan was still kind to him, she let go of Zhou Xiaochan, walked over and patted his arm, and said, "I heard that you have been promoted to general, and I haven't said congratulations yet." ”
Zhu Xuanguang said, "I haven't said congratulations to you yet." ”
Zhao Huaiyan smiled, "That's right, let's talk together." ”
Zhu Xuanguang smiled when he heard this, feeling that Zhao Wuming, who was partnering with him, was back again, his heart softened, and he said, "Congratulations." ”
Zhao Huaiyan smiled, "Well, Tongxi." ”
Then he asked, "Why did you suddenly go to Yunling?" ”
Zhu Xuanguang and Zhou Xiaochan didn't answer this question, but Bu Jingtao answered, he said, "The prince wants to invite the senior sister and younger brother of Prince Qin Yi to attend the wedding banquet of the ninth princess, we have been to Yunxue Mountain, but the spirit fox on Yunxue Mountain said that Yunling came to Zhao Kingdom, and we will come to Zhao Kingdom." ”
Zhao Huaiyan raised his eyebrows, "You have found the place where the spirit fox lives?" ”
"I found it." ”
Zhao Huaiyan asked, "How did you get there?" Is it also the way led by Baimei? ”
"Yes." ”
Zhao Huaiyan didn't ask, although it was very strange how there was a unique enchantment white plum of the Spirit Fox Clan in Bu Jingtao's hands, but she didn't say much, she just said, "Yun Ling is indeed in Zhao Kingdom." ”
