Chapter 1 The east wind is evil, and the joy is thin
Xiao Yao has to admit that Hou is a very attractive man. He is handsome, strong, intelligent, hardworking, funny, serious when he works, and uninhibited and bold when he plays.
His uninhibited boldness is completely different from Feng Shao's, Feng Shao doesn't care about anything, he doesn't want anything's indifference, but Hou has the passion to possess everything, his uninhibited boldness is not really fearless like Feng Shao, Hou's adventures and challenges are actually within his control, he seems to be chasing challenges and excitement, but he is actually very life-sparing.
Probably this is the man Feng Yiying wants, his ambition can meet all the worldly needs of women, and his playfulness can give women constant fresh stimulation, but it is not the kind of life-threatening stimulation, just interesting stimulation.
Pluck out my eyes, and let my blood splash your clothes, like peach blossoms on branches, as long as you can have me in your eyes
Please pluck out my heart, let my blood be like a peach blossom on the mountain, as long as you can have me in your heart
When ZhuanXu came to see Xiao Yao at the top of Xiao Yue, Xiao Yao was sitting under the porch embroidering sachets, black brocade, embroidered with gold thread - small wooden flowers, a needle and thread are very delicate, and they are almost finished.
After waiting for her to finish the last stitch, she asked rarely, "How do you have the temperament to make these things?"
Xiao Yao said: "Kill two birds with one stone. Acupuncture is also a medical technique, which can be used to suture wounds, and more practice can make the fingers more flexible and the patient suffer less. β
"What about the other one?"
Xiao Yao smiled and said, "I plan to give it to Jing after embroidering." β
He was stunned, and asked after a while, "Are you...... You're with him again?"
Xiao Yao shook her head: "No." β
"What about this...... What is it?" Zhen Wei pointed to the sachet in Xiao Yao's hand.
"The last time I went to Qingqiu, I found that he was not lightly ill, and if he was not treated in time, I was afraid that he would not live for a hundred years. I'm just his physician now. β
He sat silently, without joy or anger, very calm.
Xiao Yao felt a little frightened and shouted, "Brother?"
Zhen Xuan laughed and said gently: "After you finish embroidering this sachet, embroider one for me too, embroider phoenix flower, your and my favorite flower." β
Xiao Yao replied happily: "Okay." β
Xiao Yao went to see Jing and found that Jing's body was recovering, and said to Hu Zhen with satisfaction: "Very good!"
Hu Zhendao: "During these days, the patriarch's complexion has improved a lot, and several elders have praised me for my superb medical skills, so I have to be cheeky and bear it." β
Xiao Yao said: "I have half of your credit. β
Xiao Yao took the finished wooden flower sachet to Jing, which contained a pill sealed with beeswax, Xiao Yao said: "This pill is a precaution, in a critical moment, it can temporarily renew its breath." β
With Xiao Yao's identity and medical skills, he can only refine one pill, which can be imagined how precious it is.
Jing carefully put it away: "Don't worry, I'll be careful." β
Xiao Yao sighed: "The matter has not been resolved for a day, and I can't rest assured for a day." β
Jing said: "I spend most of my time in Yiyi, and I will only go back when I am dealing with the affairs of the clan. β
Xiao Yao smiled reluctantly: "That's the best." β
Jing didn't want Xiao Yao to think about these unhappy things, and asked, "Are you having fun in Wushen Mountain?"
Xiao Yao smiled: "My father was definitely not an honest man when he was young, and I was willing to bow to his fishing and grilling skills, and he was obviously proficient in eating, drinking, and having fun." β
Xiao Tian chatted with Jing for a few words, said goodbye and left. Although the trench was reluctant, he did not keep it, and it was already very good at present, and he could not hope for more.
Back at the top of Xiao Yueding, Xiao Yao remembered that he had promised to make him a sachet of phoenix flowers, and began to trace phoenix flowers on the silk silk.
When he came to Xiaoyueding, he couldn't help but laugh when he saw the various shapes of phoenix flowers in Xiaoyao's house.
Xiao Yao said: "I really don't have any talent for painting, you can help me draw a few tricks." β
Zhen Xuan said unhappily: "I don't paint, is the sachet you gave Jing better than the tricks he painted for you?" Since it is something you gave me, it must naturally be your heart from beginning to end. β
Xiao Yao was angry and laughed: "You are really picky!" Okay, I'll draw it myself!"
Standing behind Xiao Yao, he looked at it for a while, and sighed helplessly: "You, you're really stupid!" He held Xiao Yao's hand and taught Xiao Yao to draw, "Can't you be a little lighter here?" Wrist relaxed, softer, you're drawing a phoenix flower, not a phoenix tree......"
He teaches and trains at the same time. At first, Xiao Yao returned the mouth with a smile, but later he was annoyed by Zhen Xuan and wiped the paint on Zhen Xu's face.
Zhen Yan laughed while hiding, and sneaked up from time to time - Xia Xiaoyao: "Look at your little talent, you have been like this since you were a child, you can't do it yourself, and no one is allowed to say it!"
"You have a lot of talent, and other people's brothers let your sister, just your little belly, blame me for being stupid, why don't you blame yourself for being stupid, you can't teach people?"
The two of them quarreled and laughed and laughed.
The Yellow Emperor passed by the window, stopped and smiled, only to feel vaguely as if he saw two children chasing and frolicking under the phoenix tree.
Since Changyi died in battle, his daughter-in-law committed suicide in front of Zhuan, and he grew up in the night, with a sharp coldness in his eyes, and he didn't smile like an adult, and only when he was with Xiaoyao, he would look like a child again. After so many years, after many hardships, Zhuan Xuan has long hidden the exposed sharpness, and everyone sees Zhuan Xuan, no matter when he is moody, gentle and calm, but when he and Xiaotian are together, he is still like a child and laughing.
The Yellow Emperor sighed, Zhen Xuan and Xiaoyao, the palms and backs of his hands are all meat, and he is reluctant to hurt any of them, but things in this world have been difficult to do since ancient times. He asked secretly, am I old? When the soldiers were in the city and there was a crisis on all sides, they were not in such a dilemma as they are now.
The Yellow Emperor sighed again, paced, and walked away.
At night, Xiao Yao lay on the couch, thinking about Yiying and Hou, while unintentionally playing with Yu Danzi.
Under the light, the crystal clear Yu Dan exuded a soft light, and Coral snickered while helping Xiao Yao pull the tent.
Xiao Yao glanced at her: "What are you snickering at?"
Coral hurriedly said: "No, I didn't laugh anything, I just think this fish pill purple is quite rare, I have seen a red fish pill before, not as big as this one, not as pure as this one." β
Xiao Yao said: "I have also seen a red fish pill before, which is bigger than this one, without a trace of impurities, and very beautiful." β
Coral quipped: "If Wang Ji likes it, let the Tushan patriarch buy it and give it to you!"
Xiao Yao glared at Coral, and Coral grimaced: "Is Wang Ji going to sleep?" I turned off the lights. β
"Hmm."
Coral closed the seashell pearl lamp, and the house went dark.
Xiao Yao held Yu Danzi and closed her eyes, but she couldn't help but think of what happened at sea back then-
On that outing, she and Jing stayed on the boat alone for the night, but no one noticed it except for Zhen Xuan. Now that I think about it, Hong Leong never cares about the relationship between men and women, and doesn't think much about it at all; Xinyue was too busy flirting with Zhuan to pay attention; Hou and Yi Ying...... I'm afraid that night, Hou and Yiying are also having a private meeting. At that time, not long after Jing went back, he estimated that Yiying was having trouble with Hou, so he deliberately treated Jing very gently and considerately for the sake of anger.
Xiao Yao couldn't help but sigh softly, Yuan Cai and a boatload of people, except for Feng Long, all had other thoughts, so no one noticed anyone's abnormality.
On that day, when Hou returned at the latest, he drove the fish monster to gallop from the morning sun, circled the boat several times, killed the fish monster in front of a boatload of people, and took out the fish red. The fish pill was red and crystal clear, dazzling, and even Xinyue, who was accustomed to seeing treasures, was moved, and asked for it, but he didn't give it to Xinyue when he was generous.
Although Xiao Yao didn't want to have it, she couldn't help but stare at it for a while, curiously asking what kind of gem it was, Jing saw that she was moved, so she gave her this fish danzi.
Of the three women on the boat, only Yi Ying did not show any interest in Yu Danhong from beginning to end, and she didn't even look at it more, which was too inconsistent with Yi Ying's temperament. Yi Ying didn't look at it at all, not because she didn't like the fish red, but because she knew that Hou would give her that beautiful gem.
Kill the fish monster in public and take out the dazzling gem. Just like a fierce male beast hunting prey in front of a female beast, this is a kind of love and pleasure for the female beast. The man who controls the fish monster in the morning sun has a vigorous posture, chic and dignified, full of male masculine charm, which makes Bi Ying emotional, in fact, Hou is humiliating Jing in disguise, in front of Jing, let Jing's fiancΓ©e see how much stronger he is than Jing, and let Jing's woman surrender to him.
Hou's torture and humiliation did not defeat Jing, and Hou had no way to defeat Jing in the struggle for power, and he proved that he was stronger than Jing by conquering Jing's women. Jing's personal maid Lan Xiang betrayed Jing for the sake of Hou, and Jing's wife also betrayed Jing because she liked Hou......
Xiao Yao sat up suddenly: "Damn!"
On the second day, early in the morning, Xiao Yao hurried to find Jing.
Jing was about to go out, and the hoarse face of the driver was ugly.
Seeing Xiao Yao, Jing asked Hu to wait, and accompanied Xiao Yao in: "Why did you come suddenly." Is there something wrong?"
Xiao Yao took off his hat: "I'm not looking for you, I want to see the quiet night,'
Jing said: "Quiet night in the house, I will accompany you to see her,"
Xiao Yao said: "You go and do your business, I have something to say alone and in the quiet night." β
"Then I'll be back as soon as possible."
Xiao Yao smiled, didn't speak, turned around and went inside.
Jingye was talking to Hu Zhen in the house, Xiao Yao walked in, Jingye saluted: "Wang Ji is here, where is the son?"
Xiao Yao asked: "I don't think Hu has the right look, what's wrong?"
"Last night, a guard who protected Childe quietly poisoned the medicine Childe was taking, but fortunately, Wang Ji reminded us last time, and we were all extra careful not to let him succeed. The poisoned guards did not wait for interrogation, and committed suicide by taking poison. The guard grew up with Hu Mu, and Hu Mu felt very uncomfortable. β
Jingye sighed, "This feeling is terrible, one moment they are still partners who trust each other, and the next moment they become enemies with swords raised. Hu Zhen said that the enemy hidden in the dark wants us to be panicked, and even the closest people are suspicious, but fortunately, the son has a big heart, and he has not been affected at all, and he has been relieved Hu Hou. β
Xiao Yao's face is also difficult to look at, Yiying and Hou have already begun to act!
Hu Zhen said: "Although I never told anyone about the condition of the team leader, but those two are not fools, it is estimated that they have long been clear, and they have been waiting for the patriarch to fall ill, but in the past few months, the patriarch's complexion has improved significantly, and the elders have already seen it, and they can naturally see it." I think last night's poisoning was just the beginning. β
Hu Zhen's eyes stared at Xiao Yao without blinking, Xiao Yao understood what he wanted to say, and said to him: "Don't worry, I won't let others hurt my patients." β
Hu Zhen breathed a sigh of relief and saluted: "There is Lao Wang Ji." β
Xiao Yao said.." I have something to say and silent night. β
Hu Zhen glanced at Jingye and retreated.
Xiao Yao sat in the main seat where Jing usually sits, staring at the quiet night.
Jingye was stared at by her and asked, "Does Wang Ji want to eat the slave?"
Xiao Yao said: "I ask you, you confess honestly, otherwise, I may really eat you." β
Jing has always been gentle and polite, and has never spoken harshly to her, Jingye felt a little uncomfortable, but knowing the weight of Xiao Yao in Jing's heart, he could only say without humility or arrogance: "The slave who can say it will naturally speak." β
Xiao Yao said: "Tell me, have you ever given you a gift, have you ever shown favor to you, have you ever seduced and teased you?"
Jingye's face turned red with a brush: "Does Wang Ji suspect that I betrayed my son?" I didn't!"
"You answered my question, did you ever seduce and tease you? Honestly!"
Jingye bit her lip, and after a while, nodded.
"Is your body defiled by him?"
Jingye had tears in her eyes: "Once, the slave and maid fought to the death, and he let the slave and maid go." β
"Are you interested in Hou?"
Jingye immediately said: "After the disappearance of Childe, I have always suspected that Hou did it, how can I be tempted by him?" Only Lanxiang, the foolish worm, would take Hou's hypocrisy seriously, and even did not hesitate to put his life into it. β
"Since you're not interested in him, why don't you tell Jing about these things?"
Jingye held back tears and said: "No matter how decent I am in front of outsiders, I am just a maid of the Tushan family, and the prince of Hou has taken a fancy to me, that is my blessing, can I complain?" Besides, that kind of thing...... How can a woman of mine say to her son?"
Xiao Yao stared at Jingye thoughtfully, and Jingye raised her hand to the sky: "I swear, I will never do anything to be sorry for my son." I...... I...... If you already have someone you like, you can never like it. β
"Who do you like?"
"Hu Zhen. Childe has been sleeping for Wang Ji for thirty-seven years, and I have taken care of Childe with Hu Zhen for thirty-seven years, and the feeling of despair watching Childe's life disappear day by day is very terrible. He's not like Hou...... He doesn't talk sweetly, he's always stupid, but he gives me peace of mind. By his side, I knew that even if the sky fell, he would carry it with me. β
Is Hu Zhen stupid? Xiao Yao didn't think it at all, he was obviously a smart person. Only when a woman really likes it, will she say the words stupid and stupid full of tenderness and sweetness.
Xiao Yao asked, "Are you still harassing you now?"
"No, since Childe took over as the patriarch, Hou has never said those bastard words to me or done those bastard things. Later, when Hou knew that I had affection for Hu Zhen, he was not annoyed, but rewarded me with a set of tortoiseshell jewelry. β
Xiao Yao smiled and said, "I believe in you." Actually, I didn't think you would betray Jing, but I just wanted to ask clearly, after all, it was wrong for you to hide from Jing. However, what you said is also very reasonable, this kind of thing is indeed impossible to come up with, especially when Mrs. Tai is still there, if you are not careful, Mrs. Tai can reward you with a word. β
Jingye breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the tears from her face: "Thank you Wang Ji for being considerate of the slave's difficulties." ,' She also had this concern back then, for fear of making a second blue coin, and she didn't dare to open her mouth anyway.
Xiao Yao propped her chin and pondered.
Jingye whispered: "Wang Ji?"
Xiao Yao waved his hand: "You're busy, I'm thinking about something." β
Quietly exit the house in the quiet night.
Xiao Yao pondered Hou's thoughts, Jingye's refusal was to tell Hou that he was not as good as Jing, which Hou couldn't tolerate, so he never gave up entanglement, but he found out that Jingye liked Hu Zhen, even if he seduced Jingye, he won Hu Zhen, not Jing, and Hou naturally lost interest in Jingye. Hou is really proving that he is better than Jing by conquering "Jing's Woman"! Since Hou has this kind of thought, it is impossible for him to let go of Yiying, after all, compared to Lanxiang and Jingye, Yiying is the most weighty proof.
Looking back on some of Yiying's abnormal behaviors in the past, Yiying must really like Hou, but how much is Yiying's true feelings, and how much is it anger?
Jing has always wanted to resolve Hou's resentment, but he doesn't know that Hou's psychology has been distorted, from abusing Jing, to competing for the position of patriarch, and even snatching "Jing's woman", he just wants to prove that he is stronger than Jing. But the woman who had denied striking him since he was born was dead! Never see his proof!
Xiao Yao sighed, if Jing's mother knew that the cup of poisonous wine she brewed was swallowed by her own son bit by bit, would she be a little better to Shao Shihou? Xiao Yao could not understand the reason why Jing couldn't bear to attack Hou for a moment than now, but Jing had already backed down too much, and she couldn't hurt Jing in the permission.
When Jing walked into the room, he saw Xiao Yao holding his chin, frowning, tilting his head to think about something. The dappled sunlight illuminated her figure half-brightly and half-darkly, and a few strands of jet-black hair scattered around her cheeks, lining her face delicately and softly, like a budding magnolia flower.
Jing looked at her quietly, only to feel that the sun shone on Xiao Yao's body, but it penetrated into his heart, making him feel like drinking wine, with a warm and smoky sense of intoxication.
Jing walked over slowly, Xiao Yaowu pondered to herself, until Jing arrived in front of her, she was surprised, raised her head, and saw that it was Jing, and she smiled. The smile first penetrated from the bottom of my heart to the dark eyes, and then spread from the corners of my eyebrows like a mist, and then quickly faded from the corners of my eyebrows, and the whole face was stretched, and finally, the corners of my mouth curved up, and a crescent moon was pursed.
The moment the smile bloomed, it was stunningly beautiful, and this beautiful bloom was just because I saw him. Jing felt that her heart was full, and she couldn't help but murmur happily: "Xiao Yao"
Xiao Yao smiled and asked, "Why did you come back so soon?" Done?"
"After the important things are dealt with, it doesn't matter that you can put it aside for a while." Jing sat down opposite Xiao Yao, "What were you thinking just now?"
Xiao Yao said self-deprecatingly: "What can I think? People like me either don't want anything, are confused, or have bad ideas. Jing, can you promise me one thing?"
"You say."
"Trust me! Believe me unconditionally, no matter what happens!"
"I promise."
Xiao Yao still seemed a little uneasy, and admonished: "No matter what you see or hear, close your eyes and ask your heart first." β
Jing said: "Don't worry, I promised you before, but I didn't do it, this time, I will definitely do it!"
Xiao Yao smiled: "Okay, I'll wait and see." β
In the evening, when Xiao Yao came to Xiaoyueding, Xiao Yao asked him: "Is there any concubine who has any happy events to celebrate recently?" For example, on your birthday, someone in your mother's family has been promoted or something?"
"What do you want to do?"
"I want to have a banquet on the water, preferably on a boat, and sail out into the big lake."
Zhen shouted: "Xiaoxiao." β
Xiaoxiao walked over and asked, "Wang Ji wants a banquet on the water, who will hold it?"
Xiaoxiao replied: "Concubine Fang Lei grew up by the river, and every banquet likes to be set by the water. In a few days, it is the best time for the begonias in Dajing Lake to bloom, so that Concubine Fang Lei can invite everyone to gather in the name of enjoying the flowers. β
Xiao Yao smiled and nodded: "That's good, it won't make people suspicious at all." β
Xiaoxiao asked, "Who does Wang Ji want to invite?" The slave maid went to arrange. β
Xiao Yao said: "Jing, Fengfeng Yiying, Tu Shanhou, Lirongchang, I don't care about others, but these four people must be invited." β
Xiaoxiao said: "The slave remembers. β
Xiao Yao said: "Xiaoxiao, thank you." β
"Wang Ji is too polite." Xiaoxiao saluted and retired.
Zhen Xuan asked Xiao Yao: "I thought you didn't want to see Feng Yiying, what do you want to do?"
"I want to do bad things, and the so-called bad things can only be done secretly by myself, and no one can say anything."
He smiled and said, "Okay, if I'm free that day, I'll go see what you do." β
In the mid-spring moon, Concubine Fang Lei set up a banquet in Dajing Lake in Shennong Mountain, inviting guests to visit the mountains and rivers and watch the begonias.
Concubine Fang Lei invited a lot of guests and prepared seven or eight boats of different sizes, guests who like to be lively can take a big boat, and those who like quiet can take a small boat. The boat travels along the winding waterway, guests can enjoy the lake and mountains and the begonias by the stream, if you want to play closely, you can let the boat dock at any time, there is a mountain path into the sea of begonia flowers.
Xiao Yao is now very famous in the Great Wilderness, but she lives in a shallow way, and few people can see her. This time at the banquet, almost everyone stared at Xiao Yao, wanting to see what Wang Ji, who ran away with the prodigal son at the wedding, looked like.
Concubine Fang Lei ordered her personal maid to invite everyone to get on the boat, probably afraid that Xiao Yao would be embarrassed, there were very few people on the same boat with Xiao Yao, either acquaintances or relatives - Jing, Fengfeng Yiying, Hou, Lirong Chang, Xiling Chun, Chun's fiancΓ©e Ji Yanran, Fang Leifei, and Fang Leifei's sister Fang Leiyun.
Concubine Fang Lei and Yi Ying sat on the couch, talking about family things, Fang Leiyun accompanied her sister, talking less and listening more, very quiet and polite. Ji Yanran is also everyone's beautiful appearance, with a smile on her face, sitting with Yiying. The four men, Jing, Chang, Hou and Chun, all stood at the stern of the boat, chatting and fishing with fishing rods. Xiao Yao leaned on the railing of the boat alone, enjoying the scenery.
Chang saw Xiao Yao and kept rubbing Jing with his elbow. Jing didn't move, and Chang simply dragged Jing to Xiao Yao's side.
Chang said with a big grin: "Wang Ji, do you want to consider my brother?"
Xiao Yao leaned sideways against the railing, laughing and not saying a word.
Chang said: "You abandoned Feng Long, your reputation was ruined by Feng Shao, it is difficult to find a decent man again, my brother has a deep love for you, you might as well follow him!"
Xiao Yao brushed her hair with her hand and said with a smile: "Does she have a deep affection for me?" I don't see it. "The spring shirt is light and thin, outlining the delicate figure of the little girl, careless and lazy, with a kind of innocent coquettishness, like a weeping begonia by the water, blooming in the spring breeze unconsciously.
Chang almost gritted his teeth: "What else does Jing do to you, can you see it?"
Xiao Yao bit her lip, thought for a moment, pointed to the shore in the distance, and said, "I want a begonia flower." β
Chang just wanted to say, "It's not easy", but he heard Xiao Yao say with a smile: "I can't use spiritual power spells, I want to pick the begonia flowers with my own hands, and I want it now." β
I was stunned, this thing is very small and very simple, but the things in the world are not very small and very simple, and they are really easy to do, so often the simplest things are the most difficult to do. Chang looked at Yi Ying and Concubine Fang Lei. looked at Hou Hechun's side again, and then at the other boats on the lake, and said with a dry smile: "Wang Ji, aren't you deliberately making things difficult?"
Xiao Yao didn't speak, just looked at Jing with a smile.
Chang wanted to persuade again, but with a plop, Jing jumped off the boat and swam towards the shore.
This alarm caused the four women who were chatting to stand up.
Concubine Fang Lei asked in surprise, "Patriarch Tushan? What happened?"
Xiao Yao smiled and said, "Patriarch Tushan went to pick begonia flowers." β
Since leaving Rong Chang and pulling Jing to Xiao Yao's side, Hou seems to be fishing with Xiling Chun, but secretly he has been paying attention to Jing. He heard the conversation between Chang and Xiao Yao clearly. Hou knew that Jing had affection for Xiao Yao, but he didn't expect Jing to really care about anything for Xiao Yao.
Although the other people on the boat didn't know why Jing suddenly jumped into the water, they all stopped talking and laughing when they saw the Tu Shan patriarch, who had always behaved politely, doing this strange thing, and they all stopped talking and laughing, and all stared at Jing.
Someone who was familiar with Jing raised his voice and asked, "Patriarch Tushan, do you need my equivalent service?" If you have something, please do not hesitate to ask. β
Jing replied gently while swimming, "Thank you, but I need to do it myself at this time." β
Everyone asked, "What does the patriarch need to do?"
Jing calmly replied: "Pick flowers." β
The crowd was stunned, and then burst into laughter.
Chang lay on the railing, covering his eyes weakly, as if he couldn't bear to look at it again, he asked Xiao Yao viciously: "Demon girl, are you satisfied?"
Jing swam to the shore, picked a begonia flower with the best bloom, and swam back from the shore.
When he jumped on the boat drenched, everyone looked at the weeping silk begonia flowers in his hand, the soft vines were light, the green leaves were dripping green, and the weeping flowers were fragrant, the flowers were delicate, and the color was red.
Jing handed the begonia flower to Xiao Yao, Xiao Yao smiled, picked the two most beautiful flowers, put the hairpin on the sideburns, wrapped the remaining flower branches around the wrist, and made the begonia flower arm.
Everyone originally thought that the Tushan patriarch picked the flowers to prevent the wind and Yiying, and they were all laughing kindly, but at this time, the laughter stopped abruptly, and everyone stared at Xiao Yao.
Li Rongchang laughed loudly: "We lost the bet with Wang Ji, the bet is that we don't use spiritual power spells, and pick the begonia flowers with our own hands, I want to repay the debt, but Jing has a look at the board, admits the bet and loses!"
Everyone knew that Li Rongchang was ridiculous and uninhibited, smiled and joked a few words, and then dispersed. The few people who were in the same boat with Xiao Yao knew that it was not a fun bet at all.
Xiao Yao raised her arm and asked Jing with a smile, "Is it good-looking?"
Jing nodded, and several women who were stunned on the side had to admit that they were very good-looking. Ji Yanran even glanced at Chun quietly, thinking a little melancholy, it turned out that the most beautiful jewelry in the world was not those pearls and jades, but a few wild flowers picked by lovers.
Xiao Yao said to Jing, "Be careful, get your clothes dry." With that, she walked away as if nothing had happened.
Yi Ying's face was very ugly, everyone stood awkwardly, but Xiao Yao had a blank face, standing at the bow of the boat, whispering with Coral while enjoying the scenery.
Concubine Fang Lei calmed down and said with a smile: "Everyone come and try the side dishes, these small dishes are made by the chef I brought from my hometown, if you don't like it, taste it fresh, there will be a main dish later, if you like it, eat more." β
The people sat down restlessly, and tasted the side dishes served by the maidservant maid without knowing the taste.
With a slight smile, he looked at Xiaotian, perhaps because she had been living in the folk for many years, although this woman had a noble status, her temperament was completely different from that of a noble woman, like a poppy in the field, wild and uninhibited, no wonder she dared to abandon Fenglong in public and fool around with Fengfeng. Feng Shao died, and he didn't see her sad, but teased Jing again.
The perfect and excellent Jing has always been cold, no desire and no desire, he doesn't care at all about the position of patriarch that everyone dreams of, and he disdains the beautiful windproof Yiying, and even medicine can't induce him to make love with Yiying, but Jing is emotional, heartfelt, and lustful for this poppy.
Hou likes to hunt since he was a child, and the more dangerous the monster, the more he likes it, because the more dangerous it is, the stronger the thrill of conquest.
There was a boat on the lake, and everyone didn't care about it at first, but when the people in the cabin came out, they found that it was Queen Xinyue and Chishui Patriarch Feng Long, and Concubine Fang Lei and they all stood up.
Xinyue and Feng Long jumped onto the boat, and Concubine Fang Lei and the others saluted Xinyue. Xiao Tian began to have a headache and shrank behind everyone.
Xinyue smiled at Concubine Lei and said, "I heard that you are enjoying the flowers on the lake, so I came to join in the fun, I hope it didn't disturb your Yaxing." β
Concubine Fang Lei smiled and said, "The king will only make us more interested in the future. β
Xinyue's gaze crossed everyone and stared at Xiao Yao: "I really didn't expect Wang Ji to come." β
Xiao Yao didn't know how to answer, so she didn't answer anything.
Xinyue said to Feng Long: "Brother, this should be the first time you have seen Wang Ji after that farce wedding, right?"
Feng Long glanced at Xiao Yao and didn't say a word.
Xiao Yao already understood that Xinyue came for her today, and she could ignore Xinyue completely, but Xiao Yao felt sorry for Feng Long, if this could relieve Feng Long's anger, she was willing to bear Xinyue's humiliation.
Xinyue walked to Xiao Yao's side, walked around her, and sighed: "I thought that Wang Ji was very affectionate to Feng Shao but didn't want Feng Shao to die for a few months, Wang Ji came to feast and drink, and there was no trace of sorrow." β
Xinyue said to Yiying: "Your second brother died for her, but look at her appearance!" When I meet such a cool woman, I don't even think it's worth it for your second brother, and it's hard for you to force a smile here. β
Xin Yue smiled and said to Feng Long: "Brother, you should be glad, fortunately, God favored the Chishui clan and did not let this kind of woman enter the Chishui family!"
Feng Long's face was gloomy and he didn't speak.
Chang Gan laughed twice, wanted to divert the topic, and said: "Everyone is here to enjoy the flowers, just enjoy the flowers!"
Xinyue smiled and pointed to the flower on Xiaotian's wrist: "Isn't there a begonia flower to appreciate?" Wang Ji is dressed up so enchantingly, I don't know which man this delicate begonia flower is worn to? Which man are you going to seduce again......"
Jing blocked in front of Xiao Yao: "This is the flower I gave her, the queen spoke, please be cautious." β
Xinyue covered her mouth and smiled: "Oh-I forgot about your one. It's good now, no serious man will want her anyway, Patriarch Tushan will take it back, it's not bad to be a concubine, but you have to watch it carefully, otherwise who knows which man she will run away with?"
Jing was about to speak, but Xiao Yao tugged at his sleeve, shook his head with pleading, and Jing had to endure it.
"Take a look, take a look!" Xinyue sighed, "Yiying, Yiying, you are really generous, people are in love with you in front of you, you actually don't say a word, do you really plan to serve with this woman who killed your second brother?" You're ma'am, show some courage......"
"What is the queen going to do with her courage?" I don't know when, I got on the boat and walked over with a smile.
Everyone saluted one after another, and Zhu Xuan crossed the crowd, smiled and pulled up Concubine Fang Lei, and asked, "Are the begonia flowers beautiful?"
Concubine Fang Lei replied respectfully: "It's good-looking, Your Majesty wants to enjoy the flowers together?"
Xiang Xiang smiled, looked at Concubine Fang Lei and quipped: "People are more delicate than flowers, don't look at begonia flowers!"
Concubine Fang Lei's face was flushed, and Xinyue's face turned pale.
He beckoned to Xiao Yao, Xiao Yao walked up to him, and he plucked the begonia flower from Xiao Yao's bun, and the begonia flower grew into a delicate begonia in his hand. Zhen Xuan wanted to wrap the flower branch around Concubine Fang Lei's wrist and make an arm like the one worn on Xiao Yao's wrist, but he didn't wrap it well, Zhen Yan laughed, and handed the flower branch to Xiao Yao: "You women still have to do this kind of thing."
Xiao Yao wrapped the flower branch around Concubine Fang Lei's arm, helped Concubine Fang Lei make a begonia flower chuan, and said, "It's beautiful!"
Concubine Fang Lei saluted to Zhen Xuan: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your generous gift." β
Xiao Yao also saluted to Zhen Yao: "Your Majesty, I have a headache and want to retire first."
Zhen Xuan said, "It just so happens that I am going to see my grandfather and go with you." β
He said to Concubine Lei and the others, "You can continue to enjoy the flowers!" Zhen Yan was already leaving, suddenly turned around, lowered his head, and whispered two words in Concubine Fang Lei's ear, Concubine Fang Lei nodded with a shy smile.
Xiao Yao and Zhen Yao took a small boat and left.
Concubine Fang Lei smiled and beckoned everyone to continue to enjoy the flowers, Xinyue's face was not good, and she almost wanted to attack, but Concubine Fang Lei didn't notice what she was doing, and talked and laughed as usual. Concubine Fang Lei is different from Shuhui's concubine from the Central Plains clan, she belongs to the old Xuanyuan clan, and she seems to be respectful to Xinyue, but she has no fear.
Yiying was annoyed that Xinyue had trampled on her when she humiliated Xiao Yao just now, and at this time, she laughed at the other party Concubine Lei and said: "Your Majesty is really fond of the princess, when she was on the boat just now, there was only the princess in her eyes, and there was no one else." β
Concubine Fang Lei raised her wrist, looked at the begonia flower arm, smiled and said nothing.
Xinyue was annoyed and embarrassed, and she didn't seem to blame her at all, but he turned a blind eye to her in front of everyone and swept her face fiercely. Xinyue only felt that the begonia flowers in her eyes were laughing at her, and she wanted to flee immediately.
Feng Leong said: "I told you before, don't come, you have to come. Now that you're here, you can't go. If you run away, people will talk more ugly behind your back, if you hold on casually, what others can think of is that no matter how you spoil other women, you are the queen, and there is no need to compete for favor at all.
Xinyue could only endure her anger, make a graceful and generous appearance, and continue to enjoy the flowers with everyone.
When the boat was far away, Zhen Yan immediately scolded and poked Xiao Yao's head fiercely: "When did you become a pig's brain?" Xinyue scolded you, you won't talk back? Even if you have this good temper, can you use it on me and grandpa? Why don't you treat me better? Every time I say two words to you, I immediately return the mouth with sharp teeth! In the face of an outsider, you have become docile and obedient, I tell you, next time I let me run into it, I will clean up your unfortunate things first!"
Xiao Yao lowered her head and was silent.
Zhen Xuan reprimanded: "Speak! Are you dumb?"
Xiao Yao spread her hands helplessly: "Don't you blame me for my usual sharp teeth?" Am I not listening to your reprimand?"
"You ......" Zhen Yan was so angry that he knocked Xiao Yao hard, "If you have the ability to compete with me, why don't you have to deal with outsiders?"
"My business with Hong Leong...... I still feel sorry for him, Xinyue wants to scold her, let her scold a few words, just let Feng Long relieve his anger. β
"Excuse me? What's there to be sorry for? Your father and I have done all the compensation that the Chishui clan should have done, and the good things that should have been said have been said, Feng Long is now under one person and above ten thousand, and the benefits are real, and the losses are just a few words of gossip behind the backs of others! Don't say that in the future, even now, what kind of woman does he want? But what about you? Your reputation is ruined, and you are the one who suffers in this matter!"
Xiao Yao said: "Just this once! If Xinyue troubles me again next time, I will definitely fight back. β
Zhen snorted coldly: "Tell me to do bad things, I thought you were going to harm someone, so I deliberately took the time to come to see the excitement with great interest, but I saw that you were harmed." β
Xiao Yao stretched out his arms, stretched his waist, and said with a smile: "My bad things have cast the net, see if he can enter the net, and when he enters the net, he can slowly close the net." I will tell you in detail when I look back, so that you can watch the excitement. β
He only felt that the begonia flower on Xiao Tian's arm was dazzling, and he flicked his middle finger with his finger, and the begonia flower on Xiao Yao's wrist was released and fell into the water.
"Alas, my ...... Flowers!" Xiao Yao wanted to fish, but he didn't catch it, the flowers had gone away with the flowing water, and Xiao Yao's face was full of chagrin.
Zhen Xuan said disdainfully: "It's just a few broken flowers, how much you want when you go back, I'll give you as much as you want." β
Xiao Yao muttered quietly: "It's not the same ......"
A few days later, Xiao Yao and Coral walked into Tu Shan's jewelry shop.
Xiao Yao was wearing a hat, and the guy couldn't see Xiao Yao's appearance and dress, but he could see that there were two round blue pearls hanging on the coral ears, and immediately greeted them warmly and invited them into the inner hall.
The maidservant served fragrant tea, and the boss took out a set of jewelry to show Xiao Yao and Coral, Xiao Yao leaned on the couch, glanced at it casually, and looked out the window, obviously none of them could be seen. Coral picked for a long time, chose a colorful fish pill made of the hand man, this kind of fish pill color is gorgeous, looks good-looking, in fact in the fish pill is the next grade, but the color and size of the fish pill on this hand is almost exactly the same, to choose from thousands of fish pills, can become this hand is also quite rare.
Xiao Yao asked the boss to wrap up the handbag and planned to settle the bill and leave.
Hou lifted the curtain and said with a smile: "Doesn't Wang Ji buy something for herself?" Hou waved his hand at the boss, and the boss withdrew.
Xiao Yao said lazily: "It's just idle and boring, take the coral out for a casual stroll." β
Hou said: "Really good things, they don't dare to take them out casually, Wang Ji, see if there is anything you like." β
Two handmaidens came in and put boxes on the table.
Hou opened a box, inside is a set of tortoiseshell jewelry, although a good tortoiseshell is rare, but it is not rare for Xiao Yao, what is rare is the workmanship of this set of jewelry, complex hollow patterns, with the hardness of tortoiseshell, there is a unique beauty.
Xiao Yao picked it up and looked at it, and praised: "The master of the Tu Shan clan has good skills, and he is not much better than the master in the palace." Xiao Yao put it back again.
Hou opened another box, picked up a filigree lotus hairpin, and said: "This small seven-petal lotus hairpin is made of 1,808 gold wires, and there are more than 200 gold wires on each lotus petal. The process of braiding silk alone is equivalent to a woman braiding her hair every day for 60 years. β
Hou picked up a chiseled red and green gemstone necklace: "This necklace uses forty-eight gemstones, take the meaning of four flat and eight stable, flat carving, yang jian, lifting, mining, hollowing, carving, polishing, inlay a total of 28 processes, from the selection of materials to the completion, it took two masters ten years. Ten years of hard work by two masters provide a woman with a moment of beauty. β
Hou picked up a piece of jewelry casually, and each of them was introduced to Xiao Yao in detail, he spoke carefully, and Xiao Yao listened carefully.
Xiao Yao couldn't help asking, "How do you know so much about these jewelry?"
Hou smiled: "These jewelry are all designed by me, from the selection of materials to the selection of the right master, I am in charge." β
Xiao Yao was really a little surprised and amazed, and couldn't help but take a closer look.
Hou said: "There is nothing to marvel at, Tu Shan's is in business, jewelry is the riskiest of all businesses, I have worked hard since I was a child, if you spend the same effort and thought as me, you will not do worse than me." β
Xiao Yao said: "Jewelry seems cold, but in fact it embodies people's talents, painstaking efforts, and lives, so it can decorate the beauty of women." β
Hou clapped his hands twice: "Well said! But I don't think you wear much jewelry. β
"I used to have a very unbearable life, and it was a fluke to survive, and I only had the heart to appreciate these complicated things outside my body, and I had no desire to possess them."
Hou raised his eyebrows: "It's very special." β
Xiao Yao said self-deprecatingly: "Actually, it's nothing special, it's just that I'm more picky and not easy to be impressed." ββ
Hou Xiao looked at the case full of jewels and sighed: "It seems that none of these jewelry can make your heart move." β
Xiao Yao smiled and got up to say goodbye.
Hou suddenly asked, "Do you have time tomorrow?" Tomorrow a batch of rough gemstones will arrive, are you interested in seeing what the gems will look like in the first place?"
Xiao Yao tilted her head to look at him, a slight smile on her lips, and said straight to the point: "You should know that Jing likes me." β
Hou raised his eyebrows and smiled, retreating as advancing: "If you have already made up your mind to marry him, I will retract what I just said." β
Xiao Yao smiled: "Feng Shao taught me archery, and then he died under the arrow, if you are not afraid of death, I don't mind going to see you cut the gems." β
Hou smiled and said, "Then we have decided, tomorrow at noon, I will wait for you here." β
Xiao Yao smiled nonchalantly, put on his hat, and left with Sango.
On the second day, Xiao Yao arrived as promised. Hou took Xiao Yao to see the dissection of the gems.
With the first date, there is a second time, and with a second time, there is naturally a third ......
Xiao Yao has to admit that Hou is a very attractive man. He is handsome, strong, intelligent, hardworking, funny, serious when he works, and uninhibited and bold when he plays. His uninhibited boldness is completely different from Feng Shao's, Feng Shao doesn't care about anything, he doesn't want anything's indifference, but Hou has the passion to possess everything, his uninhibited boldness is not really fearless like Feng Shao, Hou's adventures and challenges are actually within his control, he seems to be chasing challenges and excitement, but he is actually very life-sparing. Probably this is the man Feng Yiying wants, his ambition can meet all the worldly needs of women, and his playfulness can give women constant fresh stimulation, but it is not the kind of life-threatening stimulation, just interesting stimulation.
Hou knows that Xiao Yao is a smart person, what else can a man approach a woman for? So although he didn't make it clear, he didn't hide it, he gave everything that a little girl might like, and said jokingly: "I know you don't necessarily like it, but this is a way for me to express my heart, you just need to accept my heart, you can dispose of things casually, throw them away or give them away." β
Xiao Yao smiled, no wonder even Xinyue once said that Hou was very generous, and these things that Hou gave her were only afraid that they would be replaced by Zhuan, and they might not necessarily be rewarded with concubines, so they could say in a chic way that you can throw them away.
From spring to summer, the two gradually became acquainted.
One summer afternoon, Hou took Xiaotian out on a boat, Xiaotian and he went into the water to play, teasing carp, picking lotus pods, swimming to the middle of the lake, Xiaoyao and Hou dived underwater.
Splashing, splashing. A drama word, so that everything is far more casual than on land. Hou Ming knew that Xiao Yao's spiritual power was low, and he still teased Xiao Yao to dive into the deep water, and when Xiao Yao's breath was about to end, he wanted to help Xiao Yao, Xiao Yao smiled, waved his hand at him, pulled out a fish pill from the collar, and put it in his mouth, but it was longer than him, and he could play underwater for as long as he wanted. When the two surfaced, Xiao Yao turned over and sat on the boat, spit out the fish pill in her mouth, picked up a handkerchief to wipe her hair, and a crystal clear purple bead hung on her chest, swaying.
Hou said: "It turns out that this fish Danzi is here with you, and it was given to you by Jing, right?" Back then, it was said that it was bought by a mysterious person, and it was Jing himself who did it for a long time. β
Xiao Yao said nonchalantly: "It was sent by Jing." β
Hou said: "It seems that you don't dislike gemstones, but Jing knows how to vote for you."
Xiao Yao smiled: "Speaking of which, it has something to do with you." Do you remember that year, when you came to Wushen Mountain to participate in my worship ceremony? We went out to sea to play, you caught a fish monster, and took out a beautiful fish red from the fish monster's body, Xinyue and I were attracted, I also wanted to think at that time, but Xinyue spoke, you refused, I am not familiar with you, and it is impossible. Later, I asked Feng Long and Jing what kind of gem this was, and I thought about going back and asking my father to help me find one, but I didn't expect that this thing was hard to find, even if I couldn't find a good one in the palace of Gaoxin, and I couldn't look down on it in general, so I was still very disappointed, and I didn't think that Jing paid attention to it, and actually gave me this fish Danzi. β
Hou remembered the events of that day, and it was indeed Xinyue who asked him to ask for it, but he refused. Xiao Yao was standing with Feng Long and Jing at that time, talking about Yu Dan. Hou was angry in his heart, but the smile on his face did not decrease: "I didn't expect that I would fulfill Jing." β
Xiao Yao said: "It's not early, let's go back!"
"We'll see you again in three days," he said. β
Xiao Yao said happily: "Okay!"
Three days later, Xiao Yao and Hou met again.
Hou shook the boat and swung into the lotus bush, and in the infinite blue of the lotus leaves, Hou stopped the boat and said to Xiao Yao: "Can you let me take a look at your fish Danzi?"
Xiao Yao took off the fish pill purple and handed it to Hou, who took it in his hand and played with it, secretly mocking Jing for being really thoughtful, this fish pill should be refined by Jing himself.
Hou said to Xiao Yao, "Close your eyes." β
Xiao Yao asked, "What are you doing?"
Hou said, "Close your eyes and you'll know." β
Xiao Yao looked at Hou with a smile, but refused to close his eyes. Hou softened his voice and coaxed, "Trust me, close your eyes." β
Xiao Yao closed his eyes, got up and hung the Yu Dan necklace around Xiao Yao's neck, and sat back down: "Okay, open it!"
Xiao Yao opened her eyes and said funny: "Why are you making my necklace so mysterious?"
Hou pointed to Xiao Yao's chest, Xiao Yao looked down, it was a Yu Dan necklace, but Yu Dan turned into a bigger and more brilliant Yu Dan red. She picked up Yu Danhong in surprise and looked at it repeatedly, and couldn't put it down: "You gave it to me?"
Hou said, "Give it to you." However, a person can only wear one necklace, and if you want it, you can't ask for this fish Danzi. Hou stretched out his hand, and the fish hanging on his middle finger fell and dangled under his palm.
Xiao Yao stared at Yu Danzi, frowned and said nothing, and after a moment, he took off Yu Danhong, wanted to return it to Hou, and said coldly: "Since the person who gave the gift is not sincere, I am not interested in asking for it!"
Hou didn't take the fish Danhong in Xiao Yao's palm, and held the fish Danzi in his palm. He half-coaxed and half-begged: "I'm just telling you that sooner or later you have to choose one." But I'll wait, until you will. β
Xiao Yao smiled at this time, pinched Yu Danhong and shook it: "I don't like others to force me, otherwise no matter how good it is, I won't be too lazy to ask for it!"
Xiao Yao's words, Hou absolutely believes that there are few women in the world who are willing to give up Chishui Fenglong, and Xiao Yao is indeed a freak. Hou said: "I'll help you keep this fish Danzi first, no matter whether you want you to go back or throw it away in the end, it's up to you." β
Xiao Yao smiled and hung Yu Danhong around his neck.
The two played on the lake for most of the hour, and sent Xiao Yao back.
Xiao Yao remained calm until she returned to Xiao Yueding and entered the bamboo house, she hugged the coral violently, jumped and laughed and said, "I got it, I finally got it!"
Coral was tormented by her and swayed: "What did you get?"
Xiao Yao said: "I got the key to unlock the truth. β
With Hou's attitude towards gemstones, even if this is a top-level fish pill that is hard to find, he is not necessarily rare, this fish pill red can be kept by his side for sixty or seventy years, it must be a gift from him to Yiying. However, Jing has seen this fish Danhong, Yiying is Jing's wife after all, and her house, including her body, cannot be regarded as a secret place for Jing. Yiying is a thief with a weak heart, and he definitely doesn't have the courage to hide this dazzling Yu Danhong by his side, and Hou will definitely not take this risk, so although the thing was given to Yiying. But it's still in storage. Maybe when the two have a private meeting, Yiying will wear it.
Since the birth of the child, Hou and Yiying have become more and more cautious, not only did they not have private meetings, but deliberately created contradictions, making everyone think that they were not compatible. This fish red was probably quietly locked in a box, and the box was hidden in a secret room and forgotten. It wasn't until he saw Xiao Yao's Yu Danzi that he remembered the loot of the year in Xiao Yao's narration.
A thing that has been locked in a box for more than ten years, and Hou doesn't mind using it in exchange for another woman's favor, especially this woman is what Jing really wants.
Xiao Yao asked Zhuan Xuan to help her get another banquet, like last time, she wanted to be by the water, she wanted to invite Jing, Yiying, Hou, and Chang, and others didn't care.
Zhen said: "These days, you have been secretly meeting with Hou, what do you want to do?"
Although Xiao Yao was very secretive every time she went to see Zhuan, she never thought that she could hide it from Zhuan, and when she heard Zhuan Xuan's question, she didn't feel surprised, smiled mysteriously, and said, "What I want to do, you will know soon." β
Ten days later, Concubine Lirong held a banquet to invite friends to Shennong Mountain.
It was summer, in order to dissipate the heat, there was no need for Xiaoxiao to think about how to arrange it, naturally, Concubine Lirong set up the banquet by the lake.
Concubine Lirong is the cousin of Lirong Chang, the patriarch of the Lirong clan, and she is a very casual woman, who invites either her best friend or her cousin Chang's best friend. There were not many guests, a total of about 20 people, took a big boat, and watched singing and dancing while enjoying lotus flowers on the lake.
When Xiao Yao got on the boat, the guests had already arrived, Xiao Yao's eyes swept over Jing and Yiying's faces, and fell on Hou, Hou smiled at her, Xiao Yao smiled back, and sat next to Concubine Lirong.
After watching the singing and dancing for a while, the guests scattered in twos and threes, talking and laughing and playing.
Concubine Lirong and Yiying chatted about jewelry and dresses, and Xiao Yao stood alone by the railing with coral, admiring the lake and mountains.
Chang pulled Jing over, opened his mouth angrily and asked, "What is the relationship between you and Hou?"
From spring to summer, Xiao Yao and Hou have met dozens of times, it is impossible to hide from the patriarch of these big families, Xiao Yao is afraid of Jing's questioning, and he is also afraid of suspicion, and he has not been to see Jing for a long time.
Xiao Yao glanced at Jing and replied impatiently: "What is the relationship between me and Hou, can you manage it?"
Chang said indignantly: "Since you are good with Jing, you shouldn't have a private meeting with Hou again." β
Xiao Yao smiled and said coldly: "Jing and I are just ordinary friends, and Hou and I are just ordinary friends, don't be nosy!"
Hou stood in the shadows, and when he heard Xiao Yao's words, his face was gloomy.
He walked out and smiled at everyone: "I heard that there is a kind of silverfish in this lake, I like to eat the lotus blossoms, the time is long, the meat has a lotus fragrance, whether it is barbecue, or boiling soup, it is extremely delicious, but they are very vigilant, hidden in deep water, very difficult to catch, and must be caught and cooked immediately, otherwise the meat will have a sour taste, I see that the cook on the boat today is good, it just so happens that I have a fish pill, it is better to catch a few whitebait for everyone." β
Concubine Lirong is also a fun-loving person, and said with a smile: "If you can catch whitebait, I will grill it for everyone, my barbecue skills are no worse than that of a chef." β
Everyone echoed and said with a smile: "I have heard that the whitebait in this lake is very delicious, but because it is difficult to catch, I have never had a chance to eat it, if I can eat it today, it will be worth the trip." β
Hou walked to the railing and took Yu Danzi out, the crystal clear Yu Danzi emitted a bright purple light in the sun, and everyone stared at Yu Danzi. Jing didn't expect that the fish pill he gave to Xiao Yao would be in Hou's hands, and he couldn't help but show a look of surprise and looked at Xiao Yao in disbelief. Xiao Yao seemed to be a little panicked, lowered her head, and avoided Jing's gaze.
He glanced at them and jumped into the lake.
Seeing that Hou dived underwater, Xiao Yao raised his head and glanced at Jing quickly. Jing's face sank like water, it was difficult to distinguish joy and anger, Xiao Yao walked a few steps and stood beside him, but he didn't explain anything. οΌ
After a while, Hou floated up from the lake, and in the cage transformed by lotus leaves, there was really a silverfish nearly two feet long, everyone applauded and cheered, and the atmosphere on the boat suddenly became lively.
Hou looked at the boat, Xiao Yao and Jing were standing side by side, looking intimate, but there was no smile on their faces. Hou laughed, beckoned in the direction of Xiao Yao, seemed to face everyone, and actually said to this Xiao Yao: "Do you want to catch whitebait together?" It's interesting. β
Several people jumped off the boat one after another, and said with a smile: "Even if you can't catch a whitebait, it's good to join in the fun!"
Xiao Yao looked at Jing and jumped into the water without saying anything.
Jing stared at Hou, Hou floated on the water, smiled at Jing, looked like you could see everything clearly, and waited until Xiao Yao swam to him, he swam away with Xiao Yao in the distance without hurry.
Yi Ying saw Hou waving to Xiao Yao and beckoning her to go into the water to play, she chuckled in her heart, and saw a few people jumping into the water, Yi Ying felt that she was too careful, and Hou said that sentence to everyone on the boat, not just Xiao Yao. But when Xiao Yao jumped into the water, Yiying saw her and Hou swimming side by side, and everyone was stunned, the two of them did not behave excessively, but the woman's intuition made her feel uneasy.
Yiying was uneasy, and couldn't help but secretly notice Qi Jing, only to see Chang full of anger and say something to Jing, but Jing just stared at the junction of the lake and the sky in silence.
There were not many people on the boat, five or six went into the water, five or six gathered around Concubine Lirong, and the remaining five or six people were lying on the railing, Yiying saw that no one paid attention to her, so she quietly walked around and went to the stern of the boat to eavesdrop on the conversation between Chang and Jing.
Yi Ying didn't dare to get too close, but she practiced archery since she was a child, her ears and eyes were smart, and she heard Chang talking about Xiao Yao and Hou intermittently, and Yi Ying couldn't help but hold her breath and get closer.
"That demon girl secretly met with Hou every once in a while, went out and went in the same way, swimming in the lake, enjoying the flowers, and climbing the mountain...... She said it was an ordinary friend, do you believe it? I don't believe ......."
Hou and Xiaoyao secretly have a private meeting? Yiying doesn't believe it, Hou will never! Never...... Yi Ying hoped that Jing would be able to refute Chang's words, but Chang tried his best to speak, and Jing didn't say a word. Obviously, Chang is telling the truth.
So-Hou and Xiao Tianzhen are really having frequent private meetings?
Yi Ying only felt that her eyes were black and her hair was dizzy.
Chang said angrily: "Don't think it's hot, look at that demon girl, just now you called her, and she threw you down!" Jing, are you blind, how did you fall in love with such a woman......
Yiying is like falling into an ice cellar, the whole body is cold, does the whole world know about Hou and Xiaoyao, only she is still in the dark.
Concubine Lirong shouted: "Yiying, Yiying, come and taste my grilled fish......"
Yi Ying hurriedly cleaned up her mood, forced out a smile, and walked out.
The maid sandwiched a piece of fish meat to Yiying, but she didn't know if it was Yiying's restlessness or the maid's clumsiness, the fish fell on Yiying's clothes, and the bones rolled off, leaving a greasy stain on Yiying's clothes. The maid hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed to make amends, Concubine Lirong scolded the maid, and said: "It doesn't matter, it's just a set of clothes, just change it." β
Concubine Rong ordered another maid to take Yiying to the cabin to change her clothes.
Under the service of the personal maidservant, Yiying changed her clean clothes, and the maidservant asked her, "Madam, do you want to go out?"
Yi Ying sat dumbfounded, her face pale, and she didn't say a word.
The maidservant stopped talking, and stood silently aside.
Yi Ying's heart was in a state of confusion, for a while he felt that everything was fake, it was impossible, and for a while he felt that what Chang said must be the truth, this kind of thing is not a secret, as long as he sends a henchman out, he can naturally find out.
Yi Ying was in a state of distraction, thinking about it, the door opened, Xiao Yao walked in wet, saw her, a little surprised, nodded politely, and walked straight to the inside. Yi Ying remembered that Xiao Yao's spiritual power was low, as soon as others came ashore, as long as they urged their spiritual power, her clothes could be done, but she didn't have that ability, so she had to change her clothes.
Through the curtain, only a vague shadow can be seen.
Xiao Yao and Coral laughed and laughed, Xiao Yao said, "Don't want this skirt, you can get another one."
Yiying was annoyed when she heard Xiao Yao's voice and wanted to leave, but as soon as she got up, she happened to open the gauze curtain and walked out. At the moment when the curtain was lifted and not closed, Yiying's eyes swept away, and she felt a fiery red dazzling light leap into her eyes. She turned around, trying to see clearly, the curtain had closed.
Yi Ying didn't care about etiquette anymore, walked over directly, opened the curtain suddenly, and saw Xiao Yao, who was only wearing a small dress, with a dazzling fish red on her chest. Yiying couldn't stand on his feet and staggered to hold on to the bulkhead.
Coral said dissatisfiedly, "Madam, Wang Ji is changing clothes. β
Yiying didn't hear it, staring at Xiao Yao directly, but she still had to force herself to laugh, and tried her best to say casually: "Wang Ji's Yudan red necklace pendant is really good-looking, I don't know where to buy it, maybe let me take a look?"
Xiao Yao put on her coat, took off the pendant with her hand, and threw it to Yi Ying, who was busy catching it, for fear of breaking it, Xiao Yao smiled: "It's just a thing, Madam doesn't have to be nervous, it's not a big deal if it's broken." β
This kind of words, Yiying used to say to others, showing his dignity, no matter what treasure, in front of the rich Tu Shan clan, it is just a thing, but today Yiying finally understands whether it is a thing or a treasure, it varies from person to person. She regards it as a treasure, and she can't wait to cover it with her whole heart, but in Xiao Yao's eyes, it's just a thing that can be thrown away!
In fact, at first glance, Yiying knew that this Yu Danhong was Yu Danhong given to her by Hou, but she didn't want to believe it, so she had to take it in her hand and see it clearly, only to finally understand that one of her hearts should have been treasured, but it had been made into a pendant by Hou and given to another woman, and it was treated as a thing by others and thrown away at will.
Yiying returned the pendant to Xiao Yao, and said with a miserable smile: "It's very beautiful." β
Xiao Yao smiled and took the pendant and hung it back around her neck.
Yiying stared at the fish dan red on Xiao Yao's chest, the red color is very lining the skin, the fairer and more delicate the skin, the more beautiful it is, when Hou and Xiao Yao have a private meeting, is Hou also like back then, holding Yu Dan red and rolling on Xiao Yao's body to play? Do you also say, "Only its red and glamorous, lining your skin like snow"?
Yi Ying turned around sharply and walked towards the door, one step at a time.
Xiao Yao saw that Yiying was gone, and the smile on her face disappeared. She sat down and let out a long breath, feeling tired, this battle had been fought from spring to summer, and by this moment, everything she could had been done, and the rest was left to Jing.
Coral silently helped Xiao Yao tie her clothes: "Wang Ji, do you want the slave to serve you a bowl of hot tea?"
Xiao Yao shook her head: "No need, I'll go out after a little rest." I'm going to leave first in a small boat, and you quietly deliver a message to Jing saying that I'll be waiting for him at the old place, and let him try to get out and meet me. β
"The slave remembers."
Xiao Yao went out to eat some whitebait and said goodbye to Concubine Lirong. Concubine Lirong was a very casual entry, and she didn't mind, but said, "Maybe Your Majesty will come later, won't you wait for Your Majesty?"
Xiao Yao said: "Don't wait, I can see you every day anyway." β
Concubine Rong ordered the attendants to put down the boat and send Xiao Yao back.
Xiao Yao took a small boat to the shore and did not return to Xiaoyueding, but went to Caoaoling. The thatched hut on the grass ridge is still the same, and back then, she and Jing often met here. Xiao Yao went around the hut and sat by the pool, waiting for Jing.
After a long time, Jing came.
Jing sat next to Xiao Yao, and Xiao Yao looked sideways at him: "Are you angry when you see that the thing you gave me is in Hou's hands?"
Jing said, "Even if you really give it to him, I can't be angry with you for an external object." Xiaoyao, tell me, what do you want to do?"
Xiao Yao squinted his eyes and laughed: "You've already guessed some, right?"
Jing said: "There are some vague thoughts, but I hope I guessed wrong, Xiaoyao, I don't want you to ......"
Xiao Yao pulled out Yu Danhong from the collar: "Whether you like it or not, anyway, my business has been done, and the rest is yours." β
Jing held Yu Danhong: "This is ...... Hou hunted a fish red in the Guixu Sea that year...... Is that the one?"
Xiao Yao nodded: "When you saw that Hou had something you gave me in his hand, even if he firmly believed that there was nothing between me and Hou, he was a little uncomfortable at that time, right?"
Jing laughed at herself: "The first reaction was indeed shock and sadness, but it was immediately clear that you must have other plans." But I don't know what you want to do, and I can't help you, so I can only be expressionless and don't say a word, so as not to respond to all changes. β
Xiao Yao pursed her lips and smiled: "Do you think there will be our trust between Yiying and Hou?" What will Yiying think when she sees this fish red in my place?"
Jing quickly figured out the cause and effect: "This fish Danhong was given to Yiying by Hou, but he gave it to you in order to win your favor?"
Xiao Yao bowed: "Originally, it was just a guess, but today's reaction confirmed my guess." The agreement between Yiying and Hou is about to be broken, Yiying is bound to go to Hou, when Hou can't take Yu Danhong to Yiying, Yiying will definitely break out, and it is estimated that Hou will have to do everything he can to appease Yiying...... Do you understand?"
"I understand." Because of the common secret, Yiying and Hou cooperate in attack and defense, and there is no weakness, but Xiaoyao makes the two suspicious, they are in a mess, and they will definitely look for an opportunity to meet.
Jing suppressed his excitement, thought about it carefully, and said, "Xiao Yao, can you lend me the mirror forged by your fierce spirit?"
Xiao Yao understood Jing's plan, he wanted to use the fox mirror to remember what Xia Hou and Yiying had said and done, and show it to her. Xiao Yao took out the small mirror, asked Jing to drop a drop of blood in her heart to the mirror, and taught Jing how to use it. After Jing learned, Xiao Yao advised: "Everything is based on your safety, anyway, I believe in you, there is no need to memorize it in the mirror to show me." β
Jing put away the mirror and said, "Xiaoyao, thank you for everything you have done for me!"
Xiao Yao sighed: "What are you thanking me for?" Thank yourself! If it weren't for you, Hou wouldn't be desperate to conquer me. β
Jing's expression was a little confused, and Xiao Yao said: "Hou once seduced Jingye, but it didn't work. Lan Xiang, Silent Night, Yi Ying, I, Hou didn't let any of them go, do you really think that I was confused by Hou?"
Jing gradually reacted, his face was white and red for a while: "He...... He...... I want to prove that he is better than me...... Better?"
Xiao Yao sighed: "This strategy of mine is not without loopholes, but because you, a person who has never fought or grabbed, have to behave like me, Hou Tai wants to destroy you by conquering me, ignoring the loopholes." β
Jing smiled reluctantly and said, "It's not that I'm acting like you, it's that he knows that I really have to you." We grew up together as brothers, and my eldest brother always knew how to really destroy me. β
Xiao Yao was silent for a moment and said, "All I do is just cast a net, and the net will be collected by you in the future." No matter how despicable and shameless the means you use, every word between Hou and Yiying can't be missed anyway, I want to know the truth. β
Jing said word for word: "I also want to know the truth!" All these years, he has been trudging in the dark, and the endless night finally has a ray of light, and no matter what, he will catch it.
The two sat quietly by the waterhole for a while, and Xiao Yao said, "Go back quickly!" After today's incident, you just pretended to be disheartened and went back to Qingqiu as a matter of course, and you will not doubt it. β
Jing said: "I'm afraid that Hou and Yiying will have an accident, you don't go out of Shennong Mountain at will, I will take care of the rest." β
Xiao Yao advised, "You should be careful, the rabbit will kick the eagle when it is urgent, not to mention people like Hou and Yiying?" Be careful!"
Jing smiled, "I'll be careful." β
Jing, Yiying, and Hou returned to Qingqiu successively.
Qingqiu must be surging now, but the only thing Xiao Yao can do is wait.
According to Yi Ying's reaction when she saw Yu Danhong, Xiao Yao was ten out of ten sure that Yi Ying and Hou had a personal relationship, but their personal relationship did not prove that the child was Hou. The child and Jing are also related by blood, whether it is Hou or Jing's child, can only be said by Yiying herself. According to Xiaotian's speculation, people are prone to lose control when they are emotional. No matter how smart a woman is, when she is controlled by jealousy and hatred, she will become crazy, and this time Yiying and Hou are making a big fuss, and it is very likely that they will tell the child's secret, but Xiao Yao is just speculating, and it is not certain that they will say it.
What if, they didn't say?
With Hou and Yiying's shrewdness and ruthlessness, such a trap can only be set once, that is to say, only this time there is a chance to find out the truth from Hou and Yiying's mouth. If they miss this time, Hou and Yiying would rather take everything to the grave and torture Jing for the rest of their lives than let Jing know the truth.
Xiao Yao was nervous, no matter what he did, he couldn't do it, so he simply followed the Yellow Emperor to farm every day, and worked like sweat under the sun, relieving mental pressure through physical exhaustion.
Ten days later, when Xiao Yao and the Yellow Emperor were plowing the fields, the Yellow Emperor's attendants came to report that Tu Shanjing, the patriarch of the Tushan clan, asked to see Wang Ji. This is the first time that Jing openly asked to meet after Xiao Yao lived in Xiao Yueding, Xiao Yao was blind, holding the hoe and didn't know how to reply.
The Yellow Emperor said: "Let him in!"
The attendant took the order and left, and the Yellow Emperor said to Xiao Yao, "Aren't you going to change your clothes?"
Xiao Xiao stood still, apparently not hearing anything, and she was so nervous that she almost couldn't stand still.
The Yellow Emperor looked at Xiao Tian with a worried and fearful expression for a while, shook his head, sighed, took the hoe from Xiao Yao's hand, and helped Xiao Yao to sit on the ridge.
Jing followed behind the attendant and entered the Medicine Valley. From a distance, I saw two people wearing linen clothes and hats sitting on the ridge, and when I got closer, I found that it was the Yellow Emperor and Xiao Yao.
Jing stepped forward to salute the Yellow Emperor, and after the Yellow Emperor looked him up and down carefully, he said, "You and Xiao Yao go to talk under the tree!"
Jing followed Xiao Yao to the shade of the locust tree, Xiao Yao took off the hat, smiled at Jing, very calm, maybe because of the sun, Xiao Yao's face was flushed, and there was a layer of fine beads of sweat on his forehead.
Jing handed her the handkerchief: "Wipe the sweat." β
Xiao Yao took it with her right hand, but wiped the sweat with her left hand, rubbing the mud all over her face, she didn't realize it, she still wiped it.
Jing was shocked to realize how much nervousness Xiao Yao hid under the seemingly calm, he only felt happy and ashamed, Xi Xiaoyao was so nervous about him, ashamed that he made Xiao Yao so uneasy.
Jing took the handkerchief and helped Xiao Yao wipe the mud off his face.
Xiao Yao felt that her heart was beating like a drum, and she couldn't wait any longer, so she asked, "Have Yiying and Hou met?" Did you hear their conversation?"
"As you might expect, they met." Jing gave Xiao Yao the mirror and wanted to tell Xiao Yao the result, "I ......"
Xiao Yao hurriedly said: "I'...... I...... See for yourself. "If it's a good result, I don't care about it for a while, but if it's a bad result, it's a little later.
Jing stopped talking, and Xiao Yao's hand gently stroked the fox mirror, and the mirror began to play back everything it remembered.
A lavishly decorated room, but without windows, it looks like it's underground, with the faint sound of flowing water.
Yi Ying was dressed up extremely beautifully, pacing back and forth in the room, anxiously waiting.
After a long time, I don't know where Hou walked in, and Yiying pounced. Hou hugged her, frowned and said, "Didn't you say that before Jing's death, we won't meet in private again?" Why the hell are you forcing me to come to you?"
Yiying said: "What about the fish Danhong you gave me?" Did you bring it?"
Hou Leng was stunned for a moment and said, "I forgot to bring it." β
Yi Ying said hurriedly: "Forgot to bring? You used to come to see me, and every time you brought it, didn't you like to see it roll on me? He also said that only its red color is worthy of my snow-like delicate skin. β
Hou smiled: "We haven't been in love for more than ten years, and it's normal to forget to bring it." β
Yiying sneered and said, "Yes, we haven't been in love for more than ten years, so you have a new person and forget the old one." β
Maybe because of his weak heart, Hou suddenly hugged Yiying and threw her on the couch: "You know, I only have you in my heart, don't compare yourself with those women." β
Hou lay down and wanted to kiss Yi Ying, but Yi Ying blocked him with his hand: "Where is Wang Ji of Gaoxin?"
Hou's movements froze, and Yi Ying said sarcastically: "Did you forget to bring the Yu Danhong you gave me, or have you already hung it on other women?"
Yi Ying violently pushed Hou away with one palm, because of hatred, he used a lot of spiritual power, and Hou was overthrown to the ground.
Hou hurriedly got up and shouted: "Listen to my explanation, I gave Yu Danhong to Xiaoyao, just to ......"
"Xiaoyao? What an affectionate call!"
"Wang Ji, it's Wang Ji! I gave Yu Danhong to Wang Ji, it's just a temporary measure......"
Yiying shouted angrily: "It's temporary! From spring to summer, you see her once every three or four days, is it temporary? How many times have we only met in the past ten years? If her relationship with you was temporary, what would you say about my relationship with you, doesn't it exist?"
Hou said eagerly: "I went to tease that Wang Ji just to bully Jing!" I'm really not interested in her, she's just a prey in my eyes! It's just that because she's Jing's woman, I want to take it away, and you know how much I hate Jing......"
Yi Ying was stunned for a moment, staring at Hou, her face pale, "What about me?" What do you have in mind for me? Is it because of that waste man that you want me?"
"No, no, Yiying, you and they are different! You are the only ...... in my heart"
Hou wanted to hold Yiying, but Yiying retreated. She believed what Hou had just said, he only wanted to possess Xiao Yao because Jing liked Xiao Yao. But it was precisely because he believed that Hou was telling the truth that Yiying was shocked. She had been sure that Hou liked her, and she was willing to do everything for him, but now she didn't know, did Hou really like her? Or, in fact, she is the same as Xiaoyao? Are they all only the tools that humiliate Jing?
Hou said anxiously: "Yiying, you believe me, you are different from them......"
Yiying stared at Hou: "You stand there, don't move, look into my eyes." β
Hou looked at Yi Ying, and Yi Ying stared at Hou in the eyes: "You said that I am different from them, is it because you really like me, or because Jing didn't do anything, but I used your child to help you trap Jing?"
In front of Yiying's bright eyes, Hou couldn't help blinking his eyes and said with a smile: "Of course, it's because I really like you." β
Yi Ying looked at Hou in a daze, sadness surged from the bottom of her heart, and in an instant, it permeated her whole body. Hou hugged Yi Ying and wanted to kiss her, but Yi Ying slapped Hou hard, laughed miserably and said, "You are telling a lie!"
"No, it's not ......"
Yi Ying turned around abruptly and ran out, running out of the mirror, and Hou chased her and disappeared outside the mirror.
Xiao Yao held the raccoon mirror in a daze.
Jing said: "The place where they met was very secret, I couldn't get in, but thanks to your little mirror, I asked you to send a little fox and put the mirror in a secret place, so I remembered the process of their meeting." β
Xiao Yao seemed to be a little sober, and looked up at Jing: "Yiying means ......"
Jing said: "Nothing happened between me and her, Yao'er is my nephew, not my son. β
Xiao Yao slowly closed her eyes and gently rested her head on her knees.
Jing can understand Xiao Yao's reaction at this time, because after reading this, his first feeling is not joy, but a kind of sadness for the rest of his life. He sat alone all night, until dawn, and then suddenly he burst into joy.
Jing said: "Xiaoyao, I won't let others hurt you in the future, let alone let myself hurt you, please give me another chance." β
After a while, Xiao Yao raised her head, looked at Jing, and smiled. Jing couldn't guess what she meant, and asked nervously, "Would you like to?"
Xiao Yao threw herself into Jing's arms and hugged him.
Jing hugged Xiao Yao tightly, because she was sad and difficult to speak, she could only express with her clenched arms that he didn't want to lose her again.
The Yellow Emperor stood on the ridge and looked at them.
The summer sunshine sprinkled on the two embracing each other through the branches and leaves of the luxuriant locust tree, as if their figures were frozen in eternal warmth.
The Yellow Emperor didn't know if it was because he was old, or if Xiao Yao with her eyes closed looked too much like the young woman in her memory, and the Yellow Emperor actually felt that her eyes were a little sour. He has made countless people happy in this life, but most of his relatives are unlucky, just like the sun, which shines on the earth and makes all things grow, but those who are really close to the sun will be burned. He is already dying, and the past cannot be traced, but now, he hopes that the warmth of embracing each other under the locust tree will really last forever.
The Yellow Emperor walked over and coughed lightly twice, Jing immediately straightened up in embarrassment, Xiao Yao's cheeks were crimson, but he looked at the Yellow Emperor indifferently.
The Yellow Emperor sat opposite Jing and asked Xiao Yao, "He has a wife and children, don't you mind?"
Jing didn't know Xiao Yao's plans, so he didn't open his mouth and looked at Xiao Yao.
Xiao Yao thought for a moment and took the lynx mirror to the Yellow Emperor.
The Yellow Emperor seemed to see the old man, his face was full of sighs and sighs, and he stroked the mirror and said: "This raccoon mirror actually fell into your hands!"
"Grandpa knows about this mirror?"
The Yellow Emperor said: "It's a very long story, I'll tell you slowly when I have time in the future, what about the past things you want to show me now?"
Xiao Yao asked the mirror to recall what it saw, and after the Yellow Emperor saw it, he sighed: "I see, I want to congratulate the Tushan patriarch." β
Congratulations to someone's wife for having an adulterer? Xiao Yao burst out laughing, and the Yellow Emperor reacted and couldn't help laughing. The atmosphere suddenly became much more relaxed.
The Yellow Emperor said: "For men, the greatest hatred is the hatred of killing their fathers and taking their wives, you have this evidence, even if you divorce the daughter of the windproof monster and expel Hou from the family, no one dares to speak for them." However, it is inevitable that the world will laugh at you and the Tu Shan clan, and every Tu Shan clan's children will be ashamed, and the elders of the Tu Shan clan will definitely not agree to you making this matter public, have you thought about what to do?"
Jing said: "I came to Shennong Mountain today to discuss this matter with Xiao Yao. If this matter is made public, the only benefit is to let everyone know the truth, and Hou may deserve it, but Yao'er thinks that he will bear the infamy of the world at a young age, so I also want to deal with this matter privately. β
The Yellow Emperor nodded: "It's really better to deal with it privately." "If Feng Yiying and Tu Shanhou were not honest, after a decade or two, they would be quietly eliminated, and everyone would have forgotten about them a long time ago, and they would not have noticed it at all.
Jing said to Xiao Yao: "I don't plan to deal with Hou and Yiying publicly, Yao'er is still named my son, only in this way will he not grow up in abuse." Xiaoyao, if you don't want to ......"
"No, I agree with you and grandpa, the more secretive it is, the better." It's good to know right and wrong, there is no need to spread it out to the people of the world to discuss, and there is no need to let Jing and the honor and disgrace of the whole clan be opposed in this matter.
The Yellow Emperor handed the Raccoon Mirror to Jing: "Don't be in a hurry to return this to Xiao Yao, I think you will still use it." β
Jing said: "After I return to Qingqiu, I will summon the elders of the clan to deal with this matter. β
The Yellow Emperor smiled and said to Xiao Yao: "You go and send the Tushan patriarch." β
Surprise flashed in Jing's eyes, did this mean that the Yellow Emperor recognized him?
With a touch of shame, Xiao Yao said to Jing: "Let's go!"
In the evening, when he came to the top of Xiaoyue, he saw that the corners of Xiaoyao's eyebrows and eyes were smiling, and the whole person was like a peach blossom bathed in the spring rain, exuding vitality.
He smiled and asked, "What happened to you?"
Xiao Yao sat beside him: "Do you remember when we were in Gaoxin, once we went to sea and caught a fish monster?" He got a rare fish red ......" Xiao Yao started from the beginning, the more he talked, the more excited he became, and the more he listened, the calmer he became.
The Yellow Emperor held a glass of medicinal wine, sipping the wine, and looked at Xiao Yao and Zhen Xuan silently.
Xiao Yao finished speaking, and said with a smile: "I'm smart, right? Let Yiying tell the truth by herself!"
With a smile on her lips, her gaze fell on the distant sky, as if she hadn't heard anything.
Xiao Yao was dissatisfied, and pushed his head: "Hey, I know, in the eyes of His Majesty the Black Emperor, these are trivial things, but they are very important to me!" Did you listen?"
He woke up from a dream and said, "It's very important to me. He smiled and added, "It's so important, so important that I don't even know how to react." β
Of course Xiao Yao didn't believe it, and hit him with a smile: "You just make fun of me!" I'm in a good mood today, so I don't bother with you!" She picked up the flask and poured a glass of wine for Zhen Xuan, held it in both hands, and saluted Zhen Xuan, "This time, if you don't help me, Hou and Yiying will not be successful." β
He laughed a few times, took the wine, and drank it all.
The Yellow Emperor said gently: "Zhuan, you are tired, go back early today and rest early!"
Zhen Xuan looked at the Yellow Emperor, the Yellow Emperor stared at Zhu Xuan, there was a faint confrontation between the two, and after a moment, Zhu Xuan made a farewell and said with a smile: "I'll leave now." β
Xiao Yao watched Zhuan's mount disappear into the sky, and said to the Yellow Emperor: "Something is not quite right, is there something wrong in the court?"
The Yellow Emperor smiled and said lightly: "Of course there is something in the court, but don't worry about him, this is the life of a king of a country." β
Xiao Yao waited in Shennong Mountain for more than ten days, but he never waited for the final news.
Xiao Yao was so uneasy that he couldn't even plant the land, so he walked around the ridge and asked the Yellow Emperor: "Grandpa, why is there no news yet?"
The Yellow Emperor straightened his waist, held his hoe, and said: "How to deal with Fengfeng Yiying and Hou is related to the interests of countless people, for Jing it is just to divorce his wife, but for the family, it is a redistribution of interests, and there will definitely be disputes." As the head of the clan, Tu Shanjing must be careful to minimize the damage to the entire clan. Otherwise, the disintegration of a clan is only a moment. β
Xiao Yao knew that what the Yellow Emperor said was very reasonable, but he couldn't hold it back, and urged the Yellow Emperor's attendants every day about the news of the Tu Shan clan. The Yellow Emperor was very indulgent to Xiao Yao, so the intelligence organization that had created the Xuanyuan Empire began to inquire about the family affairs of the Tu Shan clan for Xiao Yao, and with Jing's cooperation, the previous day's information could be sent every day.
After Jing returned to Qingqiu, he did not immediately convene the elders of the clan, but first made an appointment with Hou and Yiying, and the three of them had a private conversation, and the secret agent did not inquire about the content of the conversation, but Xiao Yao could completely guess that it must be Jing who wanted to give Hou and Yiying a way out, but it turned out that someone set fire to the house with thunder, trying to destroy the mirror and kill Jing.
Jing is not a fool, but because he has a good heart, he has repeatedly backed down. This time, Jing had already made preparations, and Hou and Yiying's counterattack completely failed.
Jing summoned all the elders and announced the secret of Hou and Yiying, and the nine elders were in an uproar, and none of them believed it, until they were shocked and silent after reading the memory of the artifact Fox Mirror. Then there are lengthy and tedious interrogations and arguments. Yiying never said a word, and didn't want to say anything, but Hou said everything. It turned out that they began to communicate privately in the first year after Jing's disappearance, and in the fourth year, they had a man and a woman, and Hou blamed all the faults on Yiying, saying that Yiying couldn't bear to be lonely, and took the initiative to hook him.
The first time Hou said this, it was a separate interrogation, and the second time was under the arrangement of the elders, in front of Yi Ying. Yiying still didn't say a word, just kept looking at Hou, kept watching, as if she had never seen Hou. When the elder questioned her, "What you said is true," she remained silent, but her bright eyes gradually became hollow, like a room without light, in which there was nothing but darkness.
Because Yi Ying couldn't make a sound, the elder naturally decided that what Hou said was the truth.
In such a thing as cheating between men and women, men are easier to be forgiven, of course, because Hou is the blood of the Tu Shan clan after all, the nine elders vented all their anger on Yi Ying, hating this woman for enjoying the glory given by the Tu Shan clan, but doing things to humiliate the Tu Shan clan, and even more hating her for playing with all of them in the palm of her hand. The nine elders summoned the Patriarch of the Wind Guard, and in the face of his daughter's scandal, the Patriarch of the Wind Patriarch was ashamed and angry, and he did not object to Elder Tu Shan's proposal at all: to execute Yi Ying in secret. As long as his daughter's scandal doesn't affect the Fengfeng clan, the Fengfeng patriarch doesn't mind inflicting the harshest punishment on his daughter.
Yi Ying listened to her father and Elder Tu Shan bargain over how to execute her, if it weren't for Jing's resolute disagreement, I was afraid that she would have already tried all kinds of torture. She had been silent since the beginning of the interrogation and suddenly laughed, and everyone looked at her in horror, but she laughed louder and louder, and fell to the ground with soft laughter, still curled up, rolling around laughing.
The elder thought that Yiying was crazy, and ordered the attendants to drag her down.
Jing went to the room where Yi Ying was detained and asked Yi Ying: "Are you willing to go back to Fang Feng's house?" After all, there is still your mother there. β
Yiying, who hadn't spoken for more than a month, finally reacted and said faintly: "That's not my home anymore!" If it weren't for the fact that I couldn't let go of Yao'er, death would be my best destination!"
"Understood." Jing turned and walked away.
Yiying asked, "Why?" You're the one who hates me the most. β
Jing stood at the door, turned around, and looked at Yiying.
It was clear that he was outstanding and high, and she was covered in filth and languid, but his gaze was the same as before, without the slightest disdain. Yiying said: "Before, I didn't understand Hou's feelings, but now I finally understand, I have done so many things to you, you are the most qualified person to punish me, but I can't see a trace of hatred in your eyes, why don't you agree to torture me?"
"You're already suffering from torture."
Yi Ying was stunned for a moment and said, "Yes! I'm already being tormented by the cruelest punishment in the world!"
Jing said: "No matter what the eldest brother says, I always think that there is nothing wrong with you liking the eldest brother, but you shouldn't kill the eldest sister-in-law in order to hide your feelings, do you remember her?"
Yi Ying muttered, "Hou wife, of course I remember!"
"What my mother did had taught me that hate never ends hate. Killing you is not a punishment, just to vent my anger, I don't want the grudge between us to harm the next generation, so that Yao'er will become the second Hou. β
Yi Ying looked up at Jing, the summer sun shone down from the top of his head, reflecting his eyebrows and eyes were extremely clear, and Hou similar facial features, but there was no secret flying of Hou, but like a clear water and a bright moon, calm and gentle, for the first time, Yi Ying really saw what Jing looked like. Yiying smiled and said: "I used to think that you were cowardly and incompetent, but today I understand that hatred does not require wisdom, it is just an instinctive reaction after being hurt, and forgiveness requires wisdom and strength, but unfortunately I can't do it." It turns out that I don't deserve you! I still like an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth, and it really goes well with the Houp!"
Jing said, "Until you can take care of her, I will take care of him." β
Jing left, the guard closed the door, and Yi Ying curled back into the darkness and closed her eyes.
On the second day, for the sake of Yiying's life and death, Jing and the nine elders disagreed, and the Fengfeng patriarch had already agreed to Elder Tu Shan's punishment, but Jing resolutely disagreed, and he couldn't hold on with the nine elders.
Yi Ying, who had been kneeling below, raised his head and said, "I am willing to use my essence blood spiritual power to sacrifice the God of Consciousness for the Tu Shan Clan." β
The elders were stunned for a moment, and their eyes showed joy. In folklore, the nine-tailed fox is not only an auspicious beast like a phoenix, but also a fierce demon beast that devours people. Actually, both are true. People feed on beasts, and beasts feed on people, and there is no right or wrong, both are the way of heaven. The god of knowledge who guards the Tu Shan clan is said to be a wisp of the soul of the ancestors of Tu Shan, enjoying the sacrifice of the Tu Shan clan, protecting the descendants of Tu Shan, Yi Ying is a pure blood god clan, and the spiritual power cultivation is not weak, if she can get her essence blood sacrifice, it will naturally be of great benefit to the Tu Shan clan.
Jing wanted to object, but Yiying raised his head and said calmly: "Patriarch, please allow me!"
Jing said: "You are not the bloodline of the Tu Shan clan, once the god of knowledge gets your essence blood, he will enjoy it greedily, and he will not be temperate, and you will suffer the pain of the heart......"
Yi Ying kowtowed heavily: "This is what I deserve, ask the patriarch for permission!"
The law enforcement elder said: "This is also a way, so that the wind will reflect the sin." β
The elders echoed each other, but Jing hesitated.
Yiying kowtowed heavily again, raised her head and begged to look at Jing, her eyes full of determination.
She had to kowtow again, and Jing said, "Okay!"
Yi Ying's body paused, and she still kowtowed, but she didn't use any force, she knocked down slowly, her forehead was against the jade ground, and she didn't get up until the law enforcement elder finished pronouncing the sentence, and the two attendants took her away.
The Windbreak Patriarch leaves Qingqiu and returns to the Northland Windbreak Valley. It didn't take long for news to come out from the Wind Valley that the Tushan Patriarch's wife, Feng Yiying, was seriously ill, and after the Feng Patriarch and the Tu Shan Patriarch discussed, Feng Feng Yi Ying moved to the Tu Shan clan to recuperate in Migu in Qingqiu Mountain.
The Tu Shan clan tried to hide it, but there were still rumors in the Great Wilderness gradually, saying that the wind was reflecting epilepsy, a disease similar to leprosy of the human race, which would slowly erode the body of the Protoss, and Lingjiu would gradually disappear, and the skin would dry up and deform piece by piece, and in the end, people would even go crazy.
Xiao Yao sighed, the world thought that he had learned about the family scandal that Tu Shan's clan was trying to hide, but they didn't know that it was deliberately spread by Tu Shan's elders. Yiying uses his essence and blood spiritual power to sacrifice to the gods, and naturally the spiritual power will gradually disappear, and the body will dry up and deform, if you can't bear the pain, you are likely to go crazy.
A few months later, Tu Shanhou went to Gaoxin, ostensibly to take care of the family's business in Gaoxin, but in fact went into exile. The secret order within the clan signed by all the elders was that he was not allowed to return to the Central Plains for the rest of his life, and he was never allowed to set foot in Qingqiu again, but he could still walk around Gaoxin, and still enjoyed the status of the eldest prince of Tushan, and the punishment he endured was too light and too light compared to everything Yi Ying had to endure.
Xiao Yao knew that Jing actually wanted to fulfill Hou and Yiying deep down, but unfortunately in order to protect herself as much as possible, Hou put all the fault on Yi Ying, Yi Ying didn't say a word, and by default she took the initiative to seduce Hou and took all the charges.
Xiao Yao used to hate her because of Yi Ying's viciousness towards Jing, but now, Xiao Yao has deep pity for Yi Ying, and when Hou said those words accusing Yi Ying of being a slut, she had already suffered a thousand cuts. Xiao Yao didn't believe that Yi Ying took the initiative to tease Hou, but only they knew what happened between her and Hou.
When everything was calm, it was already more than half a year later.
The first snow of winter danced on the top of the small moon.
Xiao Yao stood in front of the bamboo house, watching Jing dressed in green clothes, stepping on the snow, from far to near, from blurry to clear, standing in front of her. Jing stretched out her hand to dust off the snowflakes that fell on the big snow for her, and said with a smile, "Xiaoyao, I'm here." β
Xiao Yao's nose is sour, from the keel prison of Gaoxin Wushen Mountain to the small moon top of Shennong Mountain today, this seemingly light "I am here" is more than 70 years of time. It seems to be a moment of dusting his fingers, but the pain of that day, night and night is all endured by the flesh bit by bit. Finally, finally, he stood in front of her openly.
Jing spread out his palm, a crystal fish Danzi exuded a beautiful light in his palm, Jing put the fish Danzi on for Xiao Yao, and said solemnly: "This time it's not a diagnosis gold." β
Xiao Yao pursed her lips and smiled, put Yu Danzi into the collar, and hid it closely.
Xiao Yao took out the dazzling fish red from her purse and put it in Jing's palm: "It's a rare gem, but unfortunately Hou doesn't care at all, Yiying doesn't want it anymore." β
Jing sighed lightly, secretly gathered spiritual power, and gradually, the red melted into his palm, and a gust of wind passed, and a little red light was blown up, flying all over the sky, like red fireflies.
Jing and Xiao Yao watched them dim a little, until a gust of wind passed and they all disappeared into the wind mandarin.
Jing hugged Xiao Yao's big man: "Beware of the cold, let's go in!"
Xiao Xiaoxiao nodded, held Jing's hand, and walked towards the house together.
