"Alas"

Thinking of the tall and chic figure in her heart, for some reason, the heart of the girl in red couldn't help but feel a little stunned, and the heart lake would ripple for a long time.

The eyebrows frowned lightly, the eyebrows were worried, and the world seemed to dim in an instant, because of the low mood of the beautiful woman and a faint haze, making this winter more chic and gloomy.

The girl in red looked into the distance in a daze, letting the cold wind sweep the hair of her sideburns, blowing her clothes and making a hunting sound, which made her delicate body slender and soft, concave and convex, but the graceful temperament on her body, a slightly cold and abrupt look, made people not have a trace of blasphemous.

The footsteps of "rustling" are from far to near, from small to large, but the girl in red still does not move, as if she has not heard it, or has heard it but is unwilling to make a move.

"Senior sister, I'm looking for you everywhere, but I don't want you to be here!" A female voice came from behind her, with three points of anger and three points of joy in her tone, her voice was soft and soft, revealing a hint of charm, which made people feel a little swaying.

"Senior sister."

The girl in the red suit turned sideways slightly, and saw a beautiful woman in a thin tulle dress walking towards her. The wind was strong on the mountain, and her slender gauze dress was tightly tightened on her body, revealing her bewitching figure, especially the plump restrained by the red bandeau, which trembled with her movements, and made the poppy on the bandeau lifelike and extremely attractive.

Smiling like a flower, smoky and flattering, such a unique and bold outfit, who else will come except for the poppies of the six envoys of the Hundred Flowers Palace?

Walking forward, Poppies saw the unhappy appearance of the girl in red, and her heart was strange, and she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and said: "Good junior sister, what's wrong with you, your mood is so low, but someone bullied you, tell senior sister, senior sister will help you teach him a lesson!" ”

The girl in the red suit shook her head lightly, sighed silently, and then cleaned up her mood, gently tugging the corners of her mouth, revealing a faint smile. Although this smile is faint, it is as dazzling as a rainbow and a hundred flowers blooming after the rain, which makes people feel brighter.

Laughing at the city, and then laughing at the country, isn't she talking about? Poppies froze slightly, and a wave of jealousy or something else welled up in her heart.

"Senior sister, I don't know what you want to do with me?" The voice of the girl in red is very soft, like spring wind and rain and dew, like the sound of heaven in the world, containing strange power, which always makes people can't help but get close.

Poppies woke up, smiled and held the little hand of the girl in red in front of her, crystal delicate, warm as water, even if she was a woman, she couldn't put it down, and wanted to have a good time. After a little tidying up, Poppy said with a smile: "There are distinguished guests in the palace today, and the palace master has asked me to come to look for you, let us go together to greet you." ”

"Oh?" The girl in red looked at the poppy in some surprise and said, "What guest, such a noble identity?" ”

Although Baihua Palace is only a gang on the surface, it has a very large power in Houliang and the surrounding states and counties, even if it is the current Houliang Emperor Xiao Yue, he has to give three points. can let the envoy of the Hundred Flowers Palace and the heir of the next palace master greet him in person, and his identity must be extraordinary.

"I heard that he is from the Xiao clan of Liang Guo." Poppy said with a smile.

The red-clothed girl's heart shook slightly, and a complicated look flashed in her eyes, but it flashed, "Senior sister, since this is the case, let's go back to the palace here, so as not to miss the time, snub the distinguished guests, and make the master displease." ”

"Good!" The poppy replied, and went down the mountain with the girl. Although the mountain wind is strong, the mountain road is steep, but the two women are like a leisurely walk, like walking on the ground, the delicate figure moves with the wind, it is as beautiful as a butterfly.

Down the hill, poppies and girls in red clothes hurried all the way, and after about half an hour they came to a courtyard.

The courtyard is located at the foot of a mountain, it is not big from the outside, but the gate is antique, especially the four big characters on the lintel of "a hundred flowers compete for beauty" reveal an ancient and clumsy atmosphere, if it is not for the accumulation of precipitation for tens of hundreds of years, it will never be so.

As soon as the poppy and the girl in red arrived at the door, the door slowly opened from the inside, and there were two young girls standing in the door, wearing green clothes, although their appearance was far inferior to the girl in red and the poppy, but the skin was white, and the temperament was quiet and pure, just like the girl next door, but with a knife and a sword, people did not dare to look at it.

"See the two envoys!" The two maidens inside the door respectfully saluted the two poppies, with a look of awe.

Poppies snorted softly, didn't talk nonsense, and walked towards the courtyard, but the girl in red smiled gently: "The two sisters don't need to be polite, get up quickly!" ”

Regarding the performance of the woman in red makeup, Poppies was noncommittal and walked forward. The pavilions and pavilions in the courtyard are scattered, rockeries and strange stones, flowers and trees are very elegant, which makes the cold winter a little more warm. But the poppy and the red-made woman walked along the path until the depths of the courtyard, passing through an elegant arch hidden among the lush vegetation.

Appearing in front of the red-makeup woman is a very spacious, no less than 100 meters square square, the ground is paved with bluestone, the shape and size are all equal and regular, and around the square, the houses and buildings are lined up, and the glazed tiles sparkle in the sunlight.

Compared with the outer courtyard behind him, the scenery here is more exquisite, more luxurious, only the "magnificent, magnificent" eight characters can be described, here is the core station of the Hundred Flowers Palace, hundreds of years of accumulation can be seen in general.

"The two Dharma protectors, the palace master ordered, let you go directly to the main hall." There are also two girls standing in the door, dressed in blue, whose appearance is slightly better than the two in the outer courtyard, and their temperament is also a lot calmer.

"Okay." The poppy and the girl in red looked at each other, and then walked towards the most majestic building at the end of the square.

The main hall of the Hundred Flowers Palace can be called splendid, luxurious, even compared to the real palace, which can also see the strength accumulated by the Hundred Flowers Palace.

When the two of them came to the main hall together, there was already a person sitting above the main hall. This person is dressed in a red dress, wearing gold and silver threads on the placket, embroidered with clusters of flowers, the style is extremely complicated, high and high, it looks unspeakably expensive.

The woman is about 30 years old, and her appearance is also extremely beautiful, especially the mature and lazy charm and majestic bearing between the eyebrows are even more moving, which is difficult for poppies and girls in red clothes to achieve. This woman is the current palace master of the Hundred Flowers Palace, and she is also Ling Suhua.

"Subordinates (apprentices) meet the palace master (master)!" As soon as the poppy and the girl in red entered the door, they bowed to Ling Suhua, who was sitting above.

"Get up!" Ling Suhua waved his hand lightly and said slowly: "Yun'er, I don't know what you think of Zhou Guodang today?" ”

The girl in red looked stunned, looked at Ling Suhua in confusion, and didn't know how to answer for a while. It's not that she is afraid of being convicted for talking about the Son of Heaven, but she really doesn't understand why Ling Suhua wants to ask so much.

"Don't worry, say it boldly." Ling Suhua got up from her seat, walked down slowly, and stood a meter away in front of the girl in red, with a warm and kind smile on her face.

The red-clothed girl frowned, pondered for a moment and replied seriously: "Back to Master's words, the disciple thinks that the Son of Heaven of Zhou is far inferior to Emperor Gaozu in terms of character and virtue, as well as talent and knowledge. ”

As one of the largest forces in the world, the Hundred Flowers Palace will not be inactive in this troubled era. Although the girl in red has only been in the palace for a short time, she also knows something about things in the palace. Ling Suhua's question was naturally not untargeted, it was likely to be related to the development of the luck of the Hundred Flowers Palace in the next few years, or even decades, and she naturally answered very objectively and seriously.

"You're right." Ling Suhua smiled and nodded, and then suddenly changed his words and said, "Yun'er, if you are asked to marry the emperor of Zhou Guo, what should you do?" ”

"Ahh

Two exclamations sounded at the same time, but it was the girl in red and the poppy flower, the former was shocked by Ling Suhua's words, and the latter was surprised.

"Master, do you mean to let Senior Sister Shiyun marry the Son of Heaven of Zhou Guo?" Poppy frowned slightly, with a strange expression on her face.

As early as a year ago, Baihua Palace planned to unite with the son of the Sui King of Qi and the Duke of Beiping County, but was happily refused. Later, because of the turmoil in the second volume of "The Recipe for Eternal Life" and the treasure map, the matter was temporarily shelved, but Ling Suhua never said that he would choose someone else. What's more, at that time, Xiao Shiyun was brought into the Hundred Flowers Palace, hoping to repair the relationship with Xingxing, after all, both Xiao Shiyun and her younger brother Xiao had a good relationship with Xingxing.

The girl with red makeup, Xiao Shiyun, looked at Ling Suhua blankly, her expression was still in a trance, her mind was blank, her heart was both shocked and frightened, and more helpless and aggrieved.

The wicked son who had only come out of the wolf's den a few months ago to avoid marrying the gentry had now re-entered the tiger's den to marry an even more tyrannical faint king. Fate always takes pleasure in playing with mortals, giving you hope but disappointing you, even despair.

Thinking of enduring the ravages of the faint monarch in the deep palace compound in the future, Xiao Shiyun couldn't help but feel sad, and two lines of tears slipped from the corners of her eyes, like withered peony flowers, sad and sad, which made people feel heartbroken.

The change in the expression on Xiao Shiyun's face Ling Suhua was fully visible, a touch of regret flashed on her face, and she hurriedly stepped forward to hold Xiao Shiyun's somewhat cold little hand and said: "Yun'er, the teacher has no intention of forcing you to marry the Son of Heaven, there is another reason for this, and listen to the teacher slowly." ”

Xiao Shiyun was slightly stunned, and finally woke up, without words, just looking at Ling Suhua with a sad expression. Even though her childhood experience made her very strong-hearted, she was just a girl in the mood for love, and when her fate was like drifting in the wind, how could you make her not sad and angry.

"Here's how it is......" Under the gaze of Poppy and Xiao Shiyun, Ling Suhua told the reason for the matter.
