Chapter 13: Behind the Prayer for Rain
When Hua Wei opened her eyes again, she found herself lying in the bedroom, with requiem incense floating in the air, she closed her eyes and exhaled.
"You're awake!" Mo Rongsan's cold voice suddenly sounded.
Hua Wei sat up, suddenly felt soft all over, and asked listlessly, "Senior sister, nothing happened to the Rain Festival, right?"
Mo Rongsanren sat on the edge of the bed and looked at her, and sighed, "There is no major incident, and Danhe has been successfully promoted, but your trouble is not small." ”
Hua Yu thought that several people in the palace view came to stop her that day, and couldn't help but ask: "Is it the palace view that wants to trouble me?" But even if they can't see that I'm helping Danhe, can't the Suzaku people see it? If no one helps her at that time, she will die in the battle. ”
Murong Sanren frowned, and said faintly: "Do you really think that we can't see that Danhe is going to be upgraded, and the magic circle will explode, and there will be countless casualties at that time?"
Hua Yu was stunned for a moment, and suddenly thought of a very unreasonable place: if the situation was really urgent that day, involving tens of thousands of lives in the square, why would Liuyun Temple and other Taoist temples in Chang'an also watch from the wall and ignore it?
She suddenly thought of a possibility, but she didn't dare to think deeply.
"Why?"
"Because the prayer rain array will not explode, at most it will just not be able to ask for rain, and the worst result of Danhe will only be forced to terminate the promotion, and there will be no worries about his life. Mo Rong looked at her with a faint distress in his eyes, and his tone softened.
"Everything that day was just a show. ”
Hua Yu was dumbfounded.
Mo Rong was helpless.
It's really right to save people, but it's really reckless, at first glance, it's a fledgling little girl, and she is being used by others.
From this point of view, it is really necessary to go down the mountain to practice, and to cultivate is to cultivate human feelings, and people's hearts are multifaceted.
The laws of survival in the world are far more complicated than cultivating the Dao Method.
...
Hua Yu was shocked for a long time before she came back to her senses.
She remembered how she felt when she first entered the battle - it was indeed milder than she had imagined, and at that time she thought that the spell mark blessed by the red crane dance clothes was working, but it turned out that it was not like that at all.
Murong said: "To put it bluntly, this prayer for rain is actually a game between Gongguan and King Huai, Suzaku Sanren knew that Danhe was going to be promoted, but agreed to her to sacrifice to the gods, in order not to ask for rain." ”
Hua Yu thought for a moment, and then figured out that if she couldn't ask for rain, the world would not think that it was Danhe's fault, but would only think that it was the new monarch and the regent who angered the gods, so they refused to give Dayan wind and rain, and the purpose of the palace view was to point the finger at King Huai, the person in power, and no matter what King Huai did, he would be criticized.
Because it is rumored that Danhesan is the sweetheart of His Royal Highness King Huai.
But if he doesn't close the battle, he is a selfish villain who doesn't care about Danhe's life, and in front of the imperial power, he doesn't even care about the life of his sweetheart, who else dares to follow him to do things?
This is a dead end set up for King Huai.
It's really a blatant conspiracy, Hua Yu suddenly realized.
"So, did the Suzaku people calculate that King Huai would close the battle for Danhe? If King Huai resolutely did not close the formation, and I didn't make a move at that time, and Danhe led the heavenly tribulation in the array, how would that be good?" Hua Yu was extremely puzzled.
Murong patiently explained to her: "Gongguan is responsible for the matter of praying for rain, if the magic circle really explodes, the Suzaku people will also be responsible, so Gongguan will not watch the magic circle explode." On the day of praying for rain, Gongguan and King Huai were actually gambling that who would not be able to resist the pressure first and ordered the battle to be closed. ”
Hua Wei's heart was shocked, whoever closes the battle first, the blame will fall on whom.
So when she begged King Huai to close the battle, his eyes were full of coldness, did he think that someone was harming him?
Hua Yu was puzzled, "Why did the Suzaku people target King Huai so much?"
"The new monarch is on the throne, King Huai is regent, and the future of this Dayan country is uncertain, and naturally everyone wants a piece of the pie. Mo Rong's expression was cold, obviously despising them.
"In other words, they don't agree with King Huai's overall power, so it seems that there is another prince who supports it?" asked Hua Wei with an eyebrow.
Murong sighed: "It looks very smart, but it is so impulsive, originally the palace view just gave King Huai a dismount, and if you can't ask for rain, it won't really be good for King Huai, who would have thought that you would suddenly rush out." ”
Hua Wei was speechless.
"Gongguan and the forces behind him must think that you and King Huai are of the same mind, and they don't dare to touch King Huai, but they are afraid that they will not be able to get along with you. Mo Rong sighed again, "I never thought that you had only been in Chang'an for a few days before you became involved in the party struggle." ”
Hua Fei: "......"
"Then, who does Gongguan support?" Hua Yu asked cautiously, "Is King Huai's enemy worthy?"
Murong glanced at her coldly, at this time she knew that she was scared, and she didn't know how bold she was before, so she dared to break into battle with her bare hands.
"It's not clear at the moment, the situation in Chang'an is complicated, you have to be more careful. You are here in Chang'an to find the [Troublemaker], don't get involved in the battle for the Dayan royal family, and cause trouble in vain. ”
"Yes...... Masters. "The flowers are wilting.
"Haven't you received your temporary residence book yet? Mo Rong looked her up and down, and suddenly said.
Hua Fei: "......"
On the tenth day of coming to Chang'an, I was so disgusted by my senior sister that I wanted to sweep the floor out, but it was okay???
——
Thanks to the reminder of her senior sister, she got up and ate a little bit and went out to the household.
After revealing the identity of Taiyuan Guan, this temporary residence book was handled very smoothly, and the official of the household department nodded and sent her away, and Hua Yu was flattered.
As soon as she turned the corner, she suddenly saw a familiar face, and when she looked up, there was a wide carriage parked not far away.
Hua Wei glanced twice, Dongwu strode over to block her way, and saluted: "Chief Hanamichi, my Royal Highness invites you to enjoy your face and drink a cup of tea." ”
According to the experience accumulated in two lifetimes, it is usually not a good thing to be invited to tea.
Hua Yu didn't want to go when she remembered her senior sister's words, but it can be seen that Dongwu's attitude was firm in front of her, and she didn't dare to disobey, so she had to respond bitterly.
Dongwu drove her to a teahouse across the street like a duck, and then disappeared quietly.
Hua Yu pushed open the door hard, and the king of Huai said in her heart that she would not still be disobedient to him on the day of the Rain Festival, right?
——
In the elegant room, Nangong Yi raised her head, looked her up and down, and suddenly smiled, "The flower path chief has a good complexion, and this king is relieved." ”
Hua Yu couldn't help but be surprised by this treatment, and she could only blink her eyes in a daze.
Nangong Yi invited her to sit down, smiling, "This king took the liberty of inviting her, but he scared the Taoist?"
"No, I'm just afraid of disturbing His Highness's leisure. ”
Scared to death, okay?, Hua Yu roared in her heart.
"You fainted on the star-picking platform that day, this king and all the adults are very worried, and they have been inquiring about the news with Liuyunguan for the past few days, and I heard that you woke up, and this king still wants to come and see it in person, so as to feel at ease. ”
"......" Hua Fei is like sitting on pins and needles, what is the expression and tone of Huai Wang's affectionate style?
"On the day of the Prayer for Rain...... It was me who was reckless...... Thank you Your Highness for your concern. She staggered her gaze and didn't dare look at him.
"Ikebana chief is too polite, speaking of which, this king has to thank you. ”
Hua Yan's heart was beating for a while, he really knew that Gong Guan wanted to harm him!
Oh no, he begged for rain by mistake, this King Huai doesn't think that he can be his helper, and wants to coerce and lure himself to do things for him, right?
No, but if he really mentions it, how can he refuse?
No one knows that I am here with King Huai, in case I anger him, there is no helper around, Hua Wei estimated the strength of the enemy and me, and felt that she was in a bad situation.
Nangong Yi looked at her at a loss, and her heart suddenly became happy, she insisted on letting Linchao fly away on the lookout that day, she was very arrogant, and now she finally knew that she was afraid of him.
"It's just a matter of raising your hands...... Danhe Dao Chang's talent is so high, I thought, if I stop in the Yuanying Realm for the rest of my life, it would be a pity, so I will help. Hua Wei pretended not to understand, and hit haha.
"Daoist Chief, please use tea. "Nangong Yiwan'er.
Hua Wei held the teacup and didn't look at him, and Nangong Yi didn't talk to her again, the two fell silent, but Hua Wei always felt that his gaze seemed to fall on her, which gave her a big headache.
After a while, Nangong Yi finally said: "Danhe's side doesn't need to worry about the Daoist, let's rest, this king will let Dongwu send you back." ”
Hua Wei's heart was relieved, and then she was at a loss, as if he had asked himself to come here, really just to see how she recovered.
didn't go over old accounts, and didn't take the opportunity to put forward conditions, what was he thinking?
——
Gongguan.
Tanhe sat cross-legged on the ground and let out a breath of turbidity, as the closed door was opened, and Suzaku Sanren entered.
"The teacher wants you to reflect here, have you figured it out?"
Danhe called out to Master in a low voice, faintly pleading.
Suzaku Sanren sighed, sat down opposite her, and said, "It's not that you don't know your mind as a teacher, but you have to understand that King Huai is not your lover." ”
Danhe lowered his eyes and pursed his lips silently.
If he really cares about you, how can he put you in danger and refuse to shut you down? ”
"Don't talk about Master!"
"Gongguan has never supported him, he must be resentful, if he inherits the great unification in the future, sooner or later he will take revenge on us. ”
Suzaku Sanren looked directly at her and said sternly: "Danhe, if you have some weight in his heart, as a teacher, you don't worry about handing over this palace to you, but he is cruel and ruthless, you are blindly obsessed with him, only the end of moths fighting fires, you have always been smart, how can you be so confused about this matter!"
Danhe's eyes were red, and he said stubbornly: "His Royal Highness treats me very well, I surrender to him, he will not ruin the palace without affection!"
"What a fool," Suzaku Sanren sneered, "It's been five days since the Prayer for Rain Festival, and your breath is unstable just after you have been promoted, has he ever sent someone to ask about your safety?"
Danhe's face turned pale in an instant.
Suzaku Sanren got up and walked out, and said expressionlessly: "The teacher has been conniving at you for a long time, don't be willful, take care of yourself as soon as possible, and think about how to help that one get rid of him." ”
