Early the next morning, Soho Yi was already in her princess's mansion, and Fluttershy, beside her, said, "Your Highness is awake?" It was Young Master Lin Xiao who personally sent you home. ”

Su Hoyi rubbed his eyes in a hazy and asked, "What time is it?" ”

The little girl beside her smiled, "The princess hasn't woken up yet, and it's noon." ”

"Oh no, my father told me a few days ago that there are important guests from Zhongzhou coming today, so let me and my brothers wait outside the city gate." After washing up, he changed into a simple costume and rode outside the city gate.

I saw that Su Heyi's seven brothers each rode a black horse, wearing a red and gold cloak, and stood side by side outside the city gate. It's just that the eldest brother to the seventh brother all had serious expressions, and the eldest brother Su Lin looked at Su Heyi and scolded: "If you have a distinguished guest, you don't have to dress smartly, go to the back and stand with the eighth brother." I saw her starling standing alone as usual, grabbing a handful of melon seeds in his hand and sipping on himself, and when he saw Su Heyi, he hurriedly beckoned her to come over and eat together.

Her starling Su Suyuan is also an extremely handsome man, and he looks quite similar to Su Heyi, but unfortunately, when he traveled a few years ago, he suffered some emotional injuries, and he never married after he came back. Among the elder brothers, only this starling is the most unserious.

Seeing that the seven kings of Nanling jumped off their horses, and Su Su and Su Heyi made a row, the two looked at the crowd of chariots and horses in front of them, and drove towards the city gate, Su Heyi followed the footsteps of the eldest brother and took a few steps forward. I saw two black-clothed attendants in front of the car lift the curtains, and a middle-aged man in the sedan car had phoenix eyes and long eyebrows, white and jade skin, and a good appearance, that person was Xia Wuji, the second prince of Zhongzhou.

Su Lin, the eldest brother of Su Heyi, took a few steps forward to greet him, bowed his hand and said: "The prince has come from afar, I have been waiting for a long time, and the palace has prepared delicious wine and food for the second prince to catch the wind and wash the dust." Second prince, please. ”

The corners of Xia Wuji's mouth rose slightly and said softly: "Thank you." ”

Everyone then arrived at the inner hall of the banquet, and the two black-clothed attendants followed closely behind Xia Wuji. Xia Wuji and his eldest brother Su Linqi sat on both sides of the first seat, while Su Su and Su Heyi sat side by side, only waiting for the king of Nanling to sit down for a banquet at this time.

Su Su peeled a few citrus berries and handed them to Su Heyi casually, "Why don't you send it when your little horse officer goes out today?"

Su Heyi was taken aback when she heard this, and asked in a daze, "What did you say, starling?" When did Lin Xiao leave? ”

Su Su was about to answer her, only to hear three heavy dragon drum bells in a row, the drum sound was dull but resounded throughout the palace, everyone present was full of surprise, and a chamberlain hurriedly arrived in front of the palace and said to Su Lin: "The king is seriously ill, and the queen sends all the princes to go." The eldest brother Su Lin hurriedly got up and took a drink of the wine glass and said to Xia Wuji: "My father is seriously ill, I am afraid that we will not be able to accompany each other here, and if it happened suddenly, I hope the second prince will forgive me." ”

"The king of Nanling is sick, how can I not go to visit in Zhongzhou, before this trip, I asked for some pills with the medicine god of Yingzhou. I hope the monarch can use it. With that, he raised his wine glass and saluted Su Lin, and his eyes inadvertently swept over the place where Su Heyi was.

Everyone present knows that Yingzhou pills are only tributed to the Zhongzhou royal family, let your skills reach the sky, rich and rival the country, if it is not given by Zhongzhou himself, Su Lin heard that he was overjoyed and said: "Very good, so very good, how precious the pill of Yingzhou is, the second prince please come with me." ”

When the group arrived in the dormitory, Su Lin said, "What happened to my father at this time?" At that moment, all the medical officers knelt in the hall, and no one dared to raise their heads to answer, knowing that the illness was probably powerless. Su He Yi took a step forward, and saw that his father, who was full of love the day before yesterday, was lying on the couch with a weak breath, and the small flowers taken that day were also withered and destroyed, and he just heard that Lin Xiao had also left Nanling. For a while, he had mixed feelings, knelt in front of the bed and clenched the hand of King Nanling and cried, sobbing incessantly: "Father, don't leave the lotus clothes." ”

Su Lin knelt down on one knee in front of Xia Wuji and arched his hand: "Ask the second prince to give medicine to save him immediately, and the benevolence of Zhongzhou will never be forgotten in my Nanling." The eight kings of Nanling also knelt down one after another.

Xia Wuji hooked his hand to his side, and the attendant beside him handed over an ebony golden wooden bottle and a scroll. Xia Wujian raised his hand to help Su Lin, handed the scroll to him and said: "This is the Yingzhou Ten Thousand Souls Pill, it is rumored that ordinary people can take it to make their white hair black, their teeth fall and regenerate, and the seriously ill can take it to prolong their life for half a year, but today I came by the emperor's order, and the pill is a trivial matter, I just hope to be able to accept this will together." ”

Su Lin took the scroll and frowned; "I only have such a princess in Nanling, my father regards my little sister as a treasure in my heart, isn't it that the second prince wants my little sister to marry in Zhongzhou as a condition for exchanging pills, how can my father be seriously ill now?"

"The king of the county is serious, you don't know that I have asked for this elixir, it is really not easy, but I begged in front of the glazed pagoda for 7749 days, persuading my father to amnesty Yingzhou, that medicine Xu Zisheng refining night and night, a few months to obtain, this shows that the king is extremely sincere. Since ancient times, the eldest brother is also a father, so how can he not be the master? ”

Su Su suddenly stood up and said coldly: "I thought that Zhongzhou was all kind to the Buddha, but I didn't expect that there were people who took advantage of the fire to rob, who doesn't know that I only have nine sisters and a princess in Nanling, with my Nanling family matter to increase his wings, what else is the second prince afraid of in the court?" ”

"Eighth brother, don't talk nonsense." Su Lin said.

Xia Wuji was not stunned at all when he heard Su Su's words, and slowly put away the pill bottle and said, "Since this is the case, please discuss it carefully." He raised his eyes and looked at the king of Nanling who was dying on the couch: "Don't worry, this king has time." After finishing speaking, he was about to turn around and walk out, but the guard at the door stopped him, and the two people who had been following Xia Wuji pulled out two bright long swords in an instant, only to see that the hilts of the swords were written "obscure" and "Ming".

Xia Wujian snorted lightly and said, "All continents and all the worlds are subservient to my Zhongzhou, and today I want to see who dares to stop me." ”

Su Lin reluctantly signaled the guards to let him go, and as soon as he arrived outside the hall, a short arrow was shot squarely in front of Xia Wuji's feet, and he looked back, Su Heyi was standing not far away, his face mottled with tears.

"Leave the medicine and I'll go with you."
