Chapter 2 Where is this body?
Jing dragged Xiao Yao to sit on the grass by the lake: "This rumor is menacing, exposing the secret of your life experience, under the arrangement of the two Majesties, you have changed from the eldest princess of Gaoxin to the eldest lady of the Xiling clan, and it seems that everything is over." But for you, it's just the beginning! Even if you have the protection of two Majesties, they can't stop people from hostile, taunting, isolating, and making things difficult for you, and you need to learn how to face the hatred of many people as Miss Xiling. Perhaps no one would dare to challenge the majesty of the two Majesties at the risk of annihilation, but it is hard to guarantee that no one will secretly hire a killer to assassinate you, and you must also learn how to live strong as Chiyou's daughter. Xiaoyao, escaping will not let everything pass, face it bravely!"
Xiao Yao opened a small hospital in the alley of Yiyi. It's not the first time to open a medical hall, but this time it's not like eating in Qingshui Town, using the half-hung medical skills learned in "Shennong's Materia Medica", and it's not like being in Wushen Mountain, used to pass the time, she is really practicing medicine to save people with her heart of medicine.
Xiao Yao practiced medicine and learned medical skills at the same time, but she no longer went to the medical hall to study, and what was taught in the medical hall could no longer meet her requirements, so she asked the best doctor in the Xuanyuan court to teach her.
Zhen Xuan smiled: The best doctor around me is Yin, but he is a mute, and it is inconvenient to communicate.
Xiao Yao said: It doesn't matter, I can learn sign language.
Yin is a medical idiot, thinking that teaching Xiaoyao medical skills is a waste of time, but he didn't dare to disobey Zhuan's order and came reluctantly, but when he really got along with Xiaoyao, he was very glad that he came.
On the solid and comprehensive medical skills, Xiao Yao must not be compared with the Yin who has been a doctor since childhood, but Xiao Yao wanders the world, regards the barren mountains and mountains as his home, immersed in poison for hundreds of years, and his understanding of medicinal properties is far better than Yin, all kinds of strange herbs and prescriptions are casually said, Yin often does not teach Xiao Yao, but Xiao Yao is inspiring and teaching him.
There are two months left until the end of the year, and the new year is just around the corner.
Although Jing is alone now, as the patriarch, big and small things fall on him, and he will definitely be in Qingqiu when he bids farewell to the old and welcomes the new. Xiao Yao thought that when Jing was not so busy after the New Year, he would take Jing back to Wushen Mountain to live for a few days.
Jing was naturally willing, and said half-jokingly: As long as your father does not object, I will be with you.
Xiao Yao took a jade slip from Jing's bookcase, and said with a smile while writing a letter to his father: Father...... Naturally, everything went with mine.
After Jing waited for Xiao Yao to finish writing the letter, he said: Recently, there is an incident circulating in the big clan, I don't know if anyone will tell you.
"What's the matter?"
"Back then, it wasn't one person who set up a formation in the Plum Blossom Valley to kill you, but four."
Xiao Yao said indifferently, "I already knew this, in addition to Mu Fei, who was executed by my grandfather, there seem to be three other people, Xinyue said that they were secretly executed by their brother, and for this matter, the Fan family, the Zheng family, and the elder brother have a grudge." ”
Jing's expression was very solemn: "When it comes to the events of the past, everyone will wonder why these four people would risk being cut by the Yellow Emperor Hejun Emperor to hurt you regardless of their good future." ”
Xiao Yao's body stiffened, and in the plum blossom array, Mu Fei's words were bloody, and he tried to forget, but he didn't really forget.
Jing said: "These four people have only one common characteristic - they are all orphans who were exterminated by Chiyou, so there is a rumor once it appears, it will only spread faster and faster, and I think the person who leaked this news will definitely point everything to ......" Jing paused, as if he didn't know how to express that sentence.
Xiao Yao smiled: "Say I'm Chiyou's evil seed, right?"
Since she was a child, this was her worst feared nightmare, afraid of being confirmed, and she didn't even dare to go back to Wushen Mountain to recognize her father, thinking that everything was over, but she didn't expect that the nightmare caught up.
"Xiaoyao, don't talk about yourself like that."
Xiao Yao looked out the window, her eyes were at a loss, she knew what to do in the face of any difficulty, but now, she really didn't know what to do.
Jing said: "There should be very few people who knew about this back then, if the Fan family and the Zheng family knew, they would have leaked the secret long ago, and it is impossible to wait until today, then only Feng Long and Xinyue ......"
Xiao Yao said: "It's either Fenglong, it's Xinyue, I humiliated the Chishui clan, they want to destroy me, it's normal."
Jing said, "Xinyue is more likely."
Xiao Yao was upset, sighed, and said, "Forget it, I don't want to." We can't stop the rumors, it's not up to me whose daughter I am, it's my mother who has the final say, but my mother is not here, they can say whatever they like!"
Jing Ye played outside the house: "Childe, Coral has come to pick up Wang Ji."
Xiao Yao got up and put the written jade slip into his sleeve: "I'm back to Xiaoyueding."
Jing accompanied Xiao Yao and walked to the back door.
An ordinary cloud chariot was parked at the door, and a coral dressed in men's clothes was standing and waiting.
Xiao Yao stopped, looked at a vine in the corner, and didn't get into the car for a long time.
Jing asked softly, "Xiaoyao, what are you worried about?"
Xiao Yao didn't look at Jing, and whispered: "In case, I mean in case, everyone believes me, I am Chiyou...... Everybody is disgusted with me, you ......"
Jing pulled Xiao Yao into his arms: "Don't ask such stupid questions, when you rescued me back, you, just you, no one's daughter, but I decided to haunt you at that time."
Xiao Yao couldn't help but gently lean her head on Jing's shoulder, and Jing patted her back: "Don't worry, everything will pass."
"Hmm!" Xiao Yao Chongjing smiled and walked quickly onto the clouds.
When the clouds were in the air, a Xuanniao flew and landed on Sango's shoulder, and Coral asked, "Wang Ji, didn't you say that you have a letter to give to Your Majesty?" The letter bird has arrived. “
Xiao Yao squeezed the jade slip in her sleeve tightly.
Coral saw that Xiao Yao didn't make a sound for a while, and shouted, "Wang Ji?"
Xiao Yao said: "No, I haven't written a letter yet. ”
Coral was a little depressed, but he didn't ask much, raised his hand, and released the bird.
In the evening, when Zhen Xuan came to Xiao Yueding, Xiao Yao wanted to tell Zhen Xuan what Jing told her, but after thinking about it, Jing already knew something, how could Zhen Xuan not know? Since he hadn't told her, obviously he didn't want her to bother about it, if he could suppress this rumor, everything would be as if it hadn't happened, she didn't need to know, if he couldn't suppress this rumor, then it would be useless for him to tell her now.
Xiao Yao decided not to discuss this matter with Zhuan, anyway, there is nothing she can do, let Zhuan and Jing deal with it!
Because of her experience since childhood, Xiao Yao has always been very pessimistic about things, and is used to expecting the worst, but this time, maybe because the people who handled this matter are Zhen Xuan and Jing after all - His Majesty the Black Emperor and the patriarch of Xu Mountain, even Xiao Yao, who has always been pessimistic, can't help but give himself hope - the rumors will be suppressed and everything will calm down.
However, in less than a month, the rumor that Xiao Yao was a Chiyou sin spread vigorously in the Central Plains.
When everyone knew about this, they naturally divided into two factions, one who believed and the other who didn't. Those who don't believe in it denounce the rumors as nonsense, and the most favorable evidence is that Xuanyuan Wang Ji killed Chiyou. Those who believe in it also list all kinds of evidence, and those who have seen Chiyou recall Chiyou's appearance and draw a portrait of Chiyou, and judge that Xiao Yao is indeed more like Chiyou.
Gradually, all the chasing after the wind and shadows turned into words. Because there is no way to explain how Xuanyuan Wang Ji, who killed Chi You, could have Chi You's child, some people speculated that it was the murderous Chi You who raped Xuanyuan Wang Ji.
In Xinxin, because of their admiration for Emperor Jun, people choose to believe in Emperor Jun's judgment, Xiao Yao is the daughter of Emperor Jun, but they are very disgusted with this Wang Ji who keeps humiliating Emperor Jun and Emperor Junxin, and I wish she hadn't been found back then.
In Xuanyuan, because of their hatred for Chiyou, people are more and more inclined to believe that Xiaoyao is Chiyou's evil seed.
Chi You once led Shennong's army, attacked Xuanyuan and plundered the land, he slaughtered the city, killed prisoners, and died under his hands Xuanyuan people's bones are like mountains, almost every Xuanyuan clan has children who died in the hands of Chi You, Xuanyuan's old clan hates him to the bone.
The clans of the Central Plains also hate Chi You, he was tyrannical and cruel, and he also killed countless people in the Central Plains, exterminating many families, that is, the six major clans of the Central Plains were forced to wag their tails and beg for mercy by Chi You, and the humiliation of the year turned into a monstrous hatred for Chi You.
Xuanyuan's old clan and the clan of the Central Plains have nothing in common, but they are completely consistent in hating Chiyou. It can be said that Xuanyuan is all over the country, all the clans hate Chi You, Chi You is dead, and there is no one to vent his hatred, even if he hates, he can only scold a few words, but Chi You's daughter appeared. People's hatred has a specific object, all the healing pain has been awakened, and they have transferred their hatred for Chiyou to Xiao Yao.
Although, people in high positions still look at this matter rationally, but most ordinary people only care about venting their hatred, they don't have the courage to assassinate Xiao Yao, after all, no matter whose daughter Xiao Yao is, she is the granddaughter of the Yellow Emperor, this is an ironclad fact, they can only turn all their hatred into abuse. From restaurants to tea shops, there are remarks abusing Xiaoyao everywhere, and even the arrogant children of the Central Plains clan gathered at the foot of Shennong Mountain, shouting: "Chiyou's wild seeds get out of Shennong Mountain."
All kinds of concerts were sent to Zhuan Xuan, subtle and tactful, straight to the point, with the same purpose, hoping that Zhuan Xuan would take care of his reputation and send Gao Xin Wang Ji back to Gao Xin.
Xiao Yao smiled bitterly, since he hated her because he decided that she was not Emperor Jun's daughter, what was it to send her back to Gaoxin? Could it be that Emperor Hope believed the rumors and killed her?
The old year is about to pass, and the new year is coming, but Xiao Yao never mentioned to Jing that he wanted to go back to Wushen Mountain together.
Emperor Jun wrote four letters to Xiao Yao, the letter was not long, but the love of the fist was fully revealed, Emperor Jun did not pretend not to hear the rumors, he took the initiative to mention the rumors, and relieved Xiao Yao not to worry.
Xiao Yao put Emperor Jun's letters under her pillow, and slept with them every night, as if she had a protection to help her resist those hurtful words.
On the last day of the year, Jing had to return to Qingqiu to preside over the sacrificial ceremony of the clan; He held a banquet at the Purple Gold Dome and had fun with the officials.
Xiao Yao and the Yellow Emperor on the top of Xiao Yue, the ancestors and grandchildren faced a case of sumptuous wine and food, talking and laughing and waiting for the new year to come.
At the turn of the old and the new, thousands of fireworks rose on the top of Zijin, lighting up the sky. Xiao Yao ran to the window to watch the fireworks, and the Yellow Emperor also got off the bed, standing behind her, and Xiao Yao watched the sky full of purple and red blooming and falling, like the most mysterious dream in the world.
Xiao Yao's voice came like nothing in the earth-shattering cannonball: "Grandpa, whose daughter am I?"
The Yellow Emperor's hand was on Xiao Yao's shoulder, and he didn't speak for a long time.
Xiao Yao tilted his head slightly, stubbornly waiting for the answer. Under the reflection of fireworks in the sky, her face was bright and ambiguous.
Half an hour later, the Yellow Emperor said: "You are the granddaughter of the Yellow Emperor, the founding king of Xuanyuan, and the queen ancestor, this will never change, as long as I am here, Xuanyuan will always be your home!"
Xiao Yao sighed: "It turns out that my grandfather doesn't know." ”
The Yellow Emperor hugged Xiao Yao: "Don't care what others say, you will always be you!"
Xiao Yao raised her head and smiled at the fireworks in the sky: "That's fine, anyway, my mother is dead, what is the truth, no one knows, I think I am the daughter of my father, then it must be!"
In the middle of the night, Xiaotian had been asleep for a long time, and heard the sound of rustling, and after a while, the door of the bedroom was gently pushed open, and he sat down next to the couch.
Xiao Tian didn't want him to know that he was full of worries and couldn't sleep, so he pretended to be asleep and didn't wake up, with his back to Zhen Xuan. In the dark, I only heard the strong smell of wine coming from Zhuan's body, and I didn't know how much wine he was poured by his courtiers.
After a while, Zhen Xuan lay down on his side, gently hugged Xiao Yao through the quilt, and whispered, "Don't be afraid, I won't let them hurt you." They don't understand that everything I have is also yours, Shennong Mountain, Zezhou, Yiyi...... It's all yours, and no one can let you go."
Xiao Tian bit his lip, estimating what the clan in the Central Plains said, there was a faint anger in his words.
Drunk, he couldn't tell the difference between the past and the present, and muttered: "Don't be afraid, I've grown up, and I will never let people hurt you, and I won't let you go to Yushan again...... You'll always be with me!"
"Auntie, I can protect Xiaotian, don't send Xiaotian to Yushan......"
"Auntie, Xiaotian and I have agreed that we will always be together...... Don't leave, little day! Auntie, I'm scared ......"
Zhen Xuan fell asleep drunk, Xiaotian's tears fell silently, but he didn't know what he was crying about, whether he was crying for the past boy, or crying for his current self.
On the first full moon day of the new year, Xiao Yao offered to go to Yiyi City to see the lanterns, and Jing and Zhuan naturally said yes.
In the afternoon, Jing came to Xiaoyue to pick up Xiao Yao, wearing a cloth shirt, Xiao Tian put on half-old men's clothes, wore a hat, and Zhen Yan also changed his cloth clothes. After the three of them left Shennong Mountain, they rode an ox cart and were caught in the crowd of people rushing to the city to see the lanterns, and walked slowly and leisurely.
Xiao Yao looked at Jing, and then at Zhen Yao, and couldn't help laughing: "What do you say we look like now?"
Zhen Xuan and Jing glanced at each other, Jing smiled without saying a word, and Zhen Xuan smiled: "It's a bit like when I was in Qingshui Town." ”
Xiao Yao said happily: "It's not!"
Behind the ox cart is a crowd of people helping the old and the young, those who have money sit in the ox cart, and those who have no money walk by themselves, but regardless of the car or walking, everyone is wearing new clothes, with a satisfied smile on their faces after a year of hard work. A little boy riding on his father's shoulder said to his father, "Daddy, you have entered the city to buy candy!" The father replied loudly: "Medium!"
Xiao Tian's smile flashed across his face.
When the ox cart entered the city, it was getting dark, and he said, "The lanterns are not all lit yet, so let's go eat something first." Xiaoyao, what do you want to eat?"
After sitting for a long time, his body was a little cold, Xiaotian stomped his feet and said with a smile: "On such a cold day, of course it's barbecue, and a few bowls of spirits." ”
Zhen laughed and said to Jing: "Last time, I said that you would treat you to barbecue, but you ran away halfway, and this time you have to make up for it." "That time the three of them met to eat barbecue or in Qingshui Town, because of the sudden appearance of Feng Yiying, it became an appointment between Zhuan Xuan and Xiao Yao.
Jing smiled: "Do you even remember?" Good!"
After discussing what to eat, Zhen Xuan and Jing were at a loss, one was His Majesty, the other was the patriarch, no longer Xuan and Seventeen, I really didn't know where there was a barbecue shop on the street, which one was delicious.
Xiao Yao smiled and shook his head: "Come with me!"
Xiao Yao led Zhen and Jing through the streets and alleys, and entered a barbecue shop, Xiao Yao said: "Among the barbecue shops I have eaten, this one is clean and delicious, but I haven't been here for a long time, I don't know how it tastes now." ”
The food shops in these streets and alleys were all brought by Feng Shao, and in the face of her dearest two people, Xiao Yao did not deliberately hide it, and there was a trace of melancholy in her words. Zhen Yao and Jing are both extremely smart people, and they immediately guessed that Xiao Yao and Feng Shao had been here before. Zhen Yan patted Xiao Yao's shoulder and motioned her not to think about it, but Jing sighed in her heart.
The barbecue shop is divided into small cubicles by a series of landscape screens, and they come early and occupy the innermost position, so that even if there are any more guests, they will not see them inside.
The three men ordered mutton, beef, and a jar of spirits, and ate and drank as they ate. The charcoal fire burned red, the liquor went down to the stomach, and I couldn't help but sigh: "I haven't had such a pleasure for many years, and I should often come out to eat in the future." ”
Xiao Yao muttered while turning over the pieces of meat with chopsticks: "People's hearts are not satisfied, where can all the good things in this world be taken by you?"
Zhen Xuan was stunned for a moment, stared at Xiao Yao deeply, and said with a smile: "Who said that?" I'm just going to have them all!"
Xiao Yao put the roasted meat on the plate: "If you want it, it's Xiaoxiao who you're tossing anyway, it's not me!"
Zhen Yan flicked a blow on Xiao Yao's forehead: "The teeth are sharp and the mouth is sharp, and you don't eat at all!"
Xiao Yao glared, Jing pointed to the empty plate in front of him, and said to Zhen Xuan with a sad face: "She is just a good mouthful to you, and the actual benefits are not lost at all, but she laughs at others, but she doesn't give any benefits!"
Zhen Yan laughed, and was just about to raise the chopsticks to clamp the meat, Xiao Yao transferred the barbecue meat from the Zhen dish to Jing's plate, Jing smiled: "Thank you!"
Zhen Yan was stunned for a moment, laughed helplessly, and said to Xiao Yao, "Bake me another plate." ”
Xiao Yao was busy, sprinkling seasonings, and said, "I want to eat and bake myself!" I still have to feed my fangs and mouths, otherwise where will the teeth come from?"
He begged Xiao Yao in a soft voice: "What you bake is not as fragrant as you bake!"
Xiao Yao said that he would not give it, but when the meat was cooked, he still gave him a plate first.
Three burly men walked in, and they were led to the next place by Xiao Er, and neither Zhen nor Jing spoke again. I only heard the three people next door ordering, in addition to beef and mutton, they also ordered a few plates of vegetables and melons and fruits. In this season, fresh vegetables and fruits are far more expensive than meat, and ordinary people can't afford to eat them at all. Obviously, these people are either rich or expensive.
Listening to their accents with an obvious Xuanyuan City accent, Xiao Yao asked in a low voice, "Do you know?"
Zhen Xuan nodded, frowned and wrote two words on the case: "General." ”
Xiao Yao grimaced at Zhuan Yao, who told you to summon them to Shennong Mountain for an audience? Deserve!
After ordering the food, the voice next door suddenly disappeared, and it must have been a ban, not wanting others to hear their conversation.
Xiao Yao muttered: "I must be telling a secret!"
She leaned over to Jing and whispered to Jing, "It's not fair, we didn't dare to ban them for fear of attracting their attention, but they did ban them." ”
Xiao Yao glanced at Zhen Yan and said with a smile: "If you are talking about my brother, it will be interesting." Xiao Yao tugged at Jing's sleeve, "I want to hear what they say, do you have a way?"
Jing smiled: "If you don't have it, you have to have it!" He held a glass of wine, and the wine turned into a white mist, which sank to the ground, trickled from under the screen to the next door, and disappeared.
The voice next door came, but he didn't say anything important, but he was comparing the new capital Yiyi City and the old capital Xuanyuan City, it sounded like these three people were reasonable people, although it was difficult to give up the old home, but they all admitted that the current new capital was more suitable for the capital. According to their titles, Xiao Yao deduced that the highest position among the three was the Great General of Lihu, and the other two, one was his brother-in-law and the other was his nephew.
The three of them talked about the capital for a while, and then talked about the Yellow Emperor, and one sighed: "I don't know if I can see His Majesty the Yellow Emperor." ”
Another said, "We certainly can't, but Uncle may have a chance to see His Majesty." ”
Xiao Yao smiled and looked at Zhuan, who wrote to her: "Resentment, the general of the Zezhou garrison, once attacked the Central Plains with his grandfather......" His hand stopped in mid-air for a moment before he continued to write: "In the Battle of Jizhou, he served under his aunt. ”
The smile on Xiao Yao's face froze.
The three people next door drank a few bowls of wine, and one of them said: "Brother-in-law, you once followed General Wang Ji to win the Battle of Jizhou, and you want to have a good relationship with General Wang Ji." ”
General Wang Ji is a special name for his mother in the army, Xiao Tian tried his best to pretend not to care, but his ears suddenly stood up, catching the sound of resentment, but he didn't open his mouth for a long time, and after a while, he said: "That battle, it's hard to say that we won." In a word, after hundreds of years, there is still a sadness as heavy as a mountain, so that the people on both sides of the screen silently drank a bowl of wine.
After a moment of silence, another man with a brisk voice asked, "Uncle, I don't know if you have heard the recent rumors?" That is, the king of Gaoxin. ”
"I heard that."
The voice of resentment was calm, but Xiao Yao couldn't help but lean forward.
"Uncle and General Wang Ji are good friends, so ......" The man also seemed to feel a little embarrassed. After hesitating for a moment, he said, "Whose daughter is the King of Gaoxin?"
Without saying a word, Xiao Yao's body was tense. Jing held her hand, but Xiao Tian didn't notice it, just subconsciously grabbed him tightly.
Another older man said, "Brother-in-law, there are just three of us here, all of whom are close relatives, what can't we say?"
The resentment finally opened his mouth: "I am not a friend of General Wang Ji, General Ying Long has a deep friendship with Wang Ji, I only worked under Wang Ji back then, and I have never spoken to Wang Ji in private, and I don't know whose daughter Gaoxin Wang Ji is." ”
Xiao Tian's body suddenly relaxed, and he was a little weak.
Suddenly, the voice of resentment sounded again: Early one morning, General Ying Long took me to patrol the camp, and there was a commotion outside the barracks......
Xiao Tian's body trembled, as if he didn't want to listen anymore, Jing raised his hand to withdraw the spell, Xiao Yao grabbed his hand again, his eyes were wide open, staring ahead like a beast, listening intently.
Chi You's subordinates were making a lot of noise, and I listened for a while before I understood, it turned out that Wang Ji and Chi You didn't return all night, and they saw Wang Ji and Chi You returning together, and they hugged and said goodbye, so they were questioning Chi You. Chi You didn't speak, General Ying Long scolded the other party, the soldiers were about to disperse, but Wang Ji suddenly said to everyone, 'I have a personal relationship with Chi You'. We were stunned, thinking that we had missed a 'no' word, but Wang Ji said very loudly, 'I have been fond of Chiyou for hundreds of years'!
As if caught in a nightmare, Xiao Tian was so frightened that he couldn't move his whole body, and everyone's voices seemed to come from an extremely distant place.
"For ...... For...... Why? Chiyou ...... Chi You is...... The Great Devil!" The young man's voice stammered, full of frustration, and he couldn't accept that Wang Ji, who had died fighting for the people, actually liked Chi You, and he would rather be as the rumors said, Wang Ji was raped.
The voice that had been steady from the grievances suddenly became stern: "I know that you are not only concerned about rumors when you ask about this matter, but I think someone is lobbying you to persecute the King of Gaoxin, I warn you, no!" As long as General Ying Long and I live for a day, we will not allow any force in the army to persecute Wang Ji's daughter!"
"But...... However, my uncle ......"
"No, but!" The voice of resentment was suppressed, which really showed that he was a veteran of the battlefield on the side of the town.
Both men promised like soldiers: "Yes!"
The voice of resentment returned to calm: "You have never experienced a lot of helplessness and cruelty in life, so you don't understand, it was Wang Jihe who gave up everything and gave you the opportunity not to experience it." Chiyou ...... He is our enemy, but he also deserves Wang Ji's affection!" After saying goodbye, he got up and strode away.
The other two sat for a while, then jumped up and hurried to chase after them.
"Little Yao, Little Yao......"
Xiao Yao raised her head blankly, Zhen Xuan and Jing looked at her worriedly, Xiao Yao's lips moved, but her throat was astringent, and she couldn't speak for a long time. Jing took water to her, Xiao Yao shook her head, Zhu Xuan handed Xiao Yao a bowl of wine, Xiao Yao drank it, the liquor burned from her throat to her stomach, and Xiao Tian felt as if she was alive again.
I don't know when, the sky is already dark, the street lights are like teachings, and the cars are like dragons. Xiao Yao sat up straight, didn't look at Jing, didn't look at Zhuan, just looked out the window.
After a long time, she was unusually calm and said with great certainty: "I am Chiyou's daughter!"
Zhen Yan said quickly: "Xiaoyao, no matter whose daughter you are, you are my closest person." ”
Jing said slowly: "Xiaotian, when you and I first met, you were you, not anyone's daughter, in the future, no matter whose daughter you are, you will still be you." ’’
Xiao Yao stood up and walked out, Zhen Xuan and Jing hurriedly stood up, Xiao Yao said: "I want to be alone quietly, you don't follow me!"
Both Zhen and Jing stopped and watched Xiao Tian walk out the door.
As soon as Xiao Yao walked away, a virtual nine-tailed white fox jumped out of Jing's sleeve and disappeared into the night with a jump, and he walked out of the restaurant quickly, and ordered the secret guard who had been guarding outside: "Send a few more people to protect Wang Ji." ”
Zhen Xuan said lightly to Jing: "The dark guard will escort Xiao Yao back to Xiao Yueding, you go back and rest!"
Turning to leave, Jing asked, "Your Majesty, why did you do this?"
He slowly turned back. Under the steps, the lanterns are like a sea, the crowd is bustling, and the laughter is continuous, but on the steps, I don't know if it is because of the spiritual power shield of the secret guard, or if there happens to be no one coming, it is cold and silent, only Zhen Xuan and Jing are separated by two sheepskin lanterns, looking at each other.
There seemed to be a slight sneer on the corner of his lips: "How do you know?"
Jing replied: "At first, I thought it was the queen's doing, only she wanted to hurt Xiaoyao, but also had the ability to spread rumors. I took it for granted that His Majesty must be trying his best to suppress the rumors, but I did my best, even at the expense of using the power of the Xiling, Onifang, and Tushan clans to put pressure on the Chishui clan and the Shennong clan, but there was still no way to stop the rumors from spreading, so I didn't feel like a queen. The power to push the rumors is too powerful! Tonight, it seems that everything is Xiao Yao's choice, but if Your Majesty really doesn't want to sweep Xiao Yao's fun, it is impossible for General Li's grievance to step on this restaurant, and the only explanation is that His Majesty wants Xiao Yao and General Li' to 'meet' by chance. ”
Zhen Xuan smiled faintly: "Feng Leong has repeatedly said that you have a hundred knack and are unparalleled in intelligence, I still don't believe it, but now it seems that you can afford Feng Leong's praise."
Jing said: "Your Majesty, it's not that Xiao Yao is not smart enough to think of it, but that she never believes that Your Majesty will hurt her." ”
Zhen Xuan's smile disappeared, and he said coldly, "I just want to protect her." ,”
Although Jing had already guessed Zhuan's intentions, but confirmed it, he was still shocked, he silently took a few steps back and saluted Zhuan: "The grass people retire." ”
Zhen didn't speak, just stood coldly, watching Jing walk down the steps and merge into the crowd.
Xiao Yao kept walking forward with the crowd of people watching the lanterns, but he didn't know how many long streets he had walked through and how many lanterns he saw. When she passed through the long street, sometimes walked into the alley, Xiao Yao felt that she was walking aimlessly and randomly, but when she stopped in front of the dilapidated wooden door, Xiao Yao realized that this was the place she wanted to come.
Xiao Yao slowly pushed open the wooden door, the last time I came, the fire here was red, full of donkey meat, and the fragrance was overflowing, but this time, it was the stove and the pot was empty, and the house was cold and the lights were out. Isn't that one-armed old man who made donkey meat a good hand no longer makes donkey meat?
Xiao Yao lifted the shabby cloth curtain and walked into the courtyard, where it was pitch black, with no lights and no voices. Fortunately, the moonlight was bright, and the courtyard could be seen to be desolate and desolate, and the two wooden tables for hospitality were piled up in the corner of the wall, full of dust.
Xiao Yao knocked on the door: "Is there anyone?" Is anyone there? Uncle, uncle......"
No one answered, and Xiao Yao pushed the door open. On the old wooden table in the house, there is a spiritual table, three burns of unburned residual incense. Everything in front of her had clearly told her where the one-armed old man had gone.
Xiao Yao stood in a daze for a long time, walked into the room, and slowly sat down on the wooden couch.
The house was already very dilapidated, but now there is no one to live in, and there is a musty smell, but Xiao Yao is reluctant to leave, perhaps, only this place really welcomes her.
Xiao Yao looked at the spiritual position, sat silently for a long time, and suddenly said softly: "Uncle, they said that you were once Chiyou's general, you must be very familiar with Chiyou!" I don't know if you've ever met my mother? Actually, I've always wanted to come and see you and talk to you, but I don't dare! I ran away from everything related to Chiyou, and now, I can't escape, and I finally have the courage to ask you, what kind of person is Chiyou? Is he really a big demon and a big bastard who doesn't recognize his six relatives? Did he ever mention my mother to you? Does he know I exist? I have too many questions for you, and you're gone......"
Xiao Yao leaned against the wall, closed his eyes, and tears were like the sea bursting the embankment, and his face was full in an instant.
This general stewed donkey meat is the only person in the world who is familiar with Chiyou! She had a thousand chances to ask him, but she didn't, and by the time she came, it was too late.
Xiao Yao opened her mouth, wanting to scream in pain, but she couldn't make a sound, extreme pain and depression were intertwined, making her whole body tremble: "Uncle, everyone hates him, everyone hates him!" I hate him too...... I just want to hear someone who doesn't hate him talk about him, tell me that I shouldn't hate him, I want to know what kind of person he really is...... Uncle, no matter where I go, everyone is cursing him, maybe you are the only person in the world who will not curse him, but now, you are also gone...... I hate him! I hate him......"
Xiao Yao said "I hate him" over and over again, she hated the shame that Chi You brought to her mother and her, she hated that he never gave her a little love in the name of her father, and she hated them even more for abandoning her, since she didn't want her, why did she give birth to her?
But when she came here tonight, what she wanted to say was not "I hate him", what she longed for was someone to give her a reason not to hate him, so that she could calmly face the world's contempt and abuse.
But, the last one is gone! The only thing she knows about her father is the curses of the world!
In the blur of tears, Xiao Yao saw a figure emerging from the darkness in the corner of the house, Xiao Yao immediately hugged his head with his arms and hurriedly wiped away the tears.
"Who are you? Why are you hiding here?" Xiao Yao's voice was muffled and hoarse, but it was very steady.
The figure did not speak, nor did it leave, but walked to the couch.
Xiao Yao didn't look up, but she clearly felt that another heart gradually approached her, beating with her heart: "Xiangliu!" She looked up and saw Sang-ryu. He was wearing a black robe, and a black hood was draped outside, and his whole body was tightly covered, like an ordinary person who was afraid of the cold. But at this time, Da Yu's hood was a little loose, revealing a few strands of gray hair.
Xiao Yao thought that he had seen all the cries and gaffes just now, and was very embarrassed, and said coldly: "What are you hiding here?" See me laughing?"
Xiang Liu said: "Is it okay to be reasonable?" I came to pay tribute to my old friend, and you suddenly came running, obviously you disturbed me! Besides, what jokes do you have to watch?"
"Didn't General Xiangliu hear that I was a sinister seed of Chiyou?"
Xiang Liu laughed, and his cold eyebrows softened a little: "So that's it!" But what's so funny about that? You tell me about it. ”
Xiao Yao glared at Xiang Liu fiercely, but there were still tears on her cheeks, and this stare really didn't have any power.
Xiang Liu sat next to her and said with a smile: "It seems that the rumors are true, you are really the son-in-law of General Chiyou." ”
"Shut up!" Xiao Yao buried his head and ignored him.
"It's really hard to accept that I suddenly changed my father and was still a notorious demon."
"Shut up!"
"You don't know Chiyou, but you should know your mother, since she chose Chiyou, you should trust her vision!"
"I said it, shut up!"
"Anyway, you know who your parents are, it's better than me! A youkai like me who comes out of an egg doesn't even know who my parents are. ”
Xiao Yao looked up at Xiang Liu, as if she wanted to see whether what Xiang Liu said was true or false. Xiangliu said seriously: "You also know that I have nine heads, I can eat more than others, I have been running for a living since I was a child, and my life is miserable, for a while others shout and shout to kill, and for a while nine heads have to kill each other, once I was hungry, one head almost ate the other head......"
Xiao Yao's eyes widened, "Really?"
"Fake!"
"You-" Xiao Yao was simply angry.
"I remember a person once said to me, 'People have a strange mentality, happy or unhappy, painful or unpainful, all through comparison', and I am telling you about my tragic past to make you compare that you are doing well!"
Xiao Yao remembered that the "someone" was her. Xiao Yao said dissatisfiedly: "I didn't make up a lie!"
"It's true that there are nine heads that came out of the egg, and it's also true that there are nine heads, and the ...... in the back" Xiangliu tapped his forehead and muttered quietly, "It's too smooth, what did I just say?"
Xiao Yao didn't know whether to be angry or laugh, but the sadness in his chest was really much lighter.
Xiang Liu asked, "Do you still need me to tell some of my tragic past, so that you think that having a big devil's father is actually nothing?"
Xiao Yao glared at Xiang Liu and asked, "Have you ever seen Chi You?" Maybe because Xiang Liu is a devil, it is much easier to mention Chiyou in front of him.
"Nope. When I really followed my father-in-law, Chiyou was dead. ”
"What is the relationship between Gonggong and Chiyou?"
"It was very bad back then, and it was almost evil, but after Chi You died, when his father-in-law paid tribute to Zhu Rong, he would pay tribute to Chi You." Xiang Liu smiled and said mockingly: "You can't expect those people to have a good relationship back then, if they have a good relationship, Shennong Kingdom will not be destroyed." ”
Xiao Yao was silent for a while, and suddenly asked, "Xiangliu, why did you choose to work together, just because he is your father-in-law?" Xiaotian doesn't know why he has the courage to ask this question, probably because tonight's Xiangliu doesn't look like Xiangliu!
"Not only for the sake of my father-in-law, but also for the robes who fought side by side and lived and died together, we drank together, fought together, and collected the bones of our comrades-in-arms together......'' Xiangliu looked at the spiritual position on the case, "Can you think of how many robes' corpses I have personally incinerated over the past few hundred years?"
Xiao Yao couldn't imagine it, but she could understand what Xiang Liu meant, just like the fourth uncle, who was obviously able to escape, and obviously loved the fourth uncle and Zhen Xu, but chose to die with Pao Ze. In this world, there are some feelings and meanings, even if you give up your life, you can't give it up.
Xiangliu smiled and pointed to his heart: "I can't count them, but they're all here."
Xiao Yao buried her head in her knees and was silent, only feeling panicked in her heart, but she couldn't tell whether it was for Xiangliu or herself. ’
"What are you thinking?"
"As Chiyou's daughter, the world is big, but there is nowhere to go."
Xiang Liu raised Xiao Yao's head: "It's really not good, just sail out to sea, the sky is high and the sea is wide, where can you not be accommodated?"
Xiao Yao remembered that she already had a kraken-like body, and the boundless sea was someone else's nightmare, but it was her paradise, even if Xuanyuan and Gao Xin couldn't accommodate her, she could go to the sea. It's like suddenly discovering a secret escape path that no one knows, and Xiao Yao actually has a little peace of mind.
She stared at Sang-ryu, and the man in front of her was clearly the prodigal, but just as she was about to be confused, a strand of white hair fell from the hood, reminding her who he really was. Xiao Tian gently touched his white hair and said, "It's not appropriate to stay here for a long time, let's leave after paying tribute to old friends!"
Because she had just cried, Xiao Yao's eyes were exceptionally clear, and Xiang Liu could clearly see herself in her eyes. He reached out and caressed her and closed her eyes: "I'm leaving!"
Xiao Tian only felt a little soft coolness on his forehead, touched it lightly, and disappeared immediately, Xiao Tian covered his forehead suddenly, opened his eyes and saw that there was no one in front of him.
Illusion! It must be an illusion!
Xiang Liu flew out of the house and jumped onto the wall, only to see that the streets and alleys were filled with fog and there was no way out.
Xiang Liu turned around with a smile and saw Jing dressed in green clothes and standing tall. He smiled and asked, "Patriarch Tushan, is it fun to listen to the corner?" I didn't tell you to eavesdrop just now, so why do you set up obstacles to make things difficult for me now?"
Jing said gently, "If you don't want to bump into the secret guard of the Xuan, go the same way from the north, and I will leave a way over there." ”
"But I misunderstood the patriarch, thank you!" Soyanagi put on his hood, covered his face, and flew north.
Jing said, "Thank you!"
Xiang Liu stopped suddenly, turned around and said, "Thank you, Patriarch Tushan, I have to listen carefully, so as not to miss any benefits." ”
Jing smiled and said, "Thank you for comforting her, of course I am willing to give the benefits, but are you willing to ask for them?"
Xiang Liu said with a smile: "Of course I would like to ask for it, but - not to ask you!"
Jing's face changed, and Sang-ryu laughed. With laughter, his figure disappeared into the mist.
In the cold and dark room, Xiao Yao sat in a trance.
A person walked in from outside the house, and with his steps, several lanterns under the eaves and two oil lamps in the house were all lit, and when he approached Xiao Yao step by step, it was as if he brought the brilliant light to Xiao Tian step by step.
Xiao Tian was a little surprised and shouted, "Jing!"
Jing draped a fox fur on her, and Xiao Yao felt that her body was cold, so she gathered the big one and wrapped herself.
Jing lit the three unburned incense sticks in the incense burner, and said to Xiao Yao: "Let's worship Uncle Lirong together!"
Xiao Yao and Jing saluted together.
After the salute, Jing said, "We can decide many things, but we can't decide our parents, don't torture yourself with things you can't decide." ”
Xiao Yao was about to speak, Xiaoxiao walked in, and said while saluting: "Wang Ji, the night is very deep, please let the slave send you back to Xiaoyueding, otherwise the two Majesties should be worried." ”
Xiao Yao looked at Jing, and Jing said gently: "It's time to rest, I'll come to see you tomorrow."
Xiao Yao tried her best to squeeze in a smile: "Okay." ”
When Xiao Yao returned to Xiao Yueding, the Yellow Emperor and Zhen Yao were playing against each other under the lamp.
Seeing Xiao Yao, the Yellow Emperor seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, his face showed exhaustion, and he held the hand of the servant, "Go back to the house and rest."
Zhen Yao walked up to Xiao Yao, saw that her cheeks were red by the cold wind, put his hand on her shoulder, and used spiritual power to chill her, and when Xiao Yao's whole body was warm, Zhen Yao helped her take off her hat and big hat.
Miao Pu came in with a bowl of hot soup: "Wang Ji, use some ......" Xiao Yao slammed the hot soup over.
Xiao Yao has always been easy-going, not to mention getting angry, she didn't even say a heavy word, Miao Pu immediately knelt down: "Slave damned!"
Xiao Yao said tiredly: "It's not that you deserve to die, it's me who deserves to die!" Don't call me Wang Ji in the future!"
Miao Pu was so frightened that he didn't know what to go back, so he could only kowtow frequently.
He said, "Go down!" Miao Pu hurriedly bowed and retreated.
Zhuan Yan dragged Xiao Yao to the warm couch: "Wang Ji, it's been half the night, sit down and rest for a while." ”
Xiao Yao glared at Zhen Yao angrily, and wanted to shake off Zhen Yao's hand, but Zhen Yao held it and looked at Xiao Yao with a smile.
Xiao Yao said angrily: "You know that I am not...... Are you still ...... You're bullying me with everybody!"
He said, "Where are you not?" I can tell the world tomorrow that I will call you the king of Xuanyuan, not to mention Wang Ji, you can also be the king of one party if you want to, all my land, mountains and rivers, you can choose, I will seal it to you. ”
Xiao Yao said angrily: "Don't make trouble for me!" I'm annoyed now!"
Zhen Yan asked, "Do you care a lot about whether you are Wang Ji or not?"
"You know that what I care about is not Wang Ji's identity, but ...... I'm so tired!" Xiao Yao only felt physically and mentally tired, and his head rested on his shoulder, motionless, as if he was asleep.
She was also motionless, leaning on her.
After a long time, Xiao Yao's deep voice sounded softly: "Do you still hate your uncle now?" You have everything, no one dares to bully you anymore, won't you resent your aunt like you did when you were a child?"
"I still dream that she killed herself in front of me, and no matter how powerful I am now, I still can't stop her from sticking a dagger into her heart, and I can only watch helplessly as blood stains her dress, and I can only watch her jump into her father's grave."
Xiao Yao said: "I hate her!" This she is not Zhuan's mother, but Zhuan's aunt, Xiaoyao's mother.
He didn't know how to explain Xiao Yao, just as he didn't know how to explain himself. That's their dearest person, this kind of hatred makes them miserable, he and Xiao Yao don't want to hate, want to forgive, but what about the reason? Can anyone give them a reason?
Xiao Yao said: "At that time, although I was young, I remember every time Chiyou and my mother met, I wanted to ...... I always knew the truth in my heart, so I would rather be displaced than go back to Wushen Mountain. Hearing the words of resentment tonight, I was angry and sad on the one hand, but relieved on the other, as if a person had done a bad thing and had been trying to hide it, but he had a premonition that sooner or later it would be exposed, and he had to work very hard, and when the secret was exposed, it was terrible, but I was finally relieved, because I didn't have to work hard to hide it anymore! I can't bear to be favored by my father, but I really don't want to lie to him anymore!"
Zhen Yao stroked Xiao Yao's back: "Xiao Yao, it's not your fault. ”
Xiao Yao smiled bitterly: "I've been thinking, who dares to seal the Zhuyan Flower in my body and make me a faceless person, now I understand, it's my mother!" He must be trying to hide my looks, ridiculous! Isn't it? Since I was born, everything has been a lie, the two of them died vigorously, one was admired by all the people, the other was scolded by the world, and what was left to me was a lie! Brother, you said that they died together, but you thought of me? Are you a little reluctant?"
"Xiaoyao, I can't answer you on their behalf, but I know that I won't be willing to leave you."
Xiao Yao whispered: "I know:"
They depend on each other and want to rely on each other, exactly the same as when they were children, but when they were children, it was Xiao Yao who relied on her, so that she understood that even if her father and mother were gone, she would still accompany him, and now she is relying on Xiao Yao, so that he understands that even if the world spurns and hates her, he is still by her side.
Looking at the sun in the middle of spring, Emperor Jun announced to the world that the name of Gaoxin Jiuyao was removed from the genealogy of the Gaoxin royal family, and the world was in an uproar.
Although the rumors spread all over the world, after all, it was hundreds of years ago, except for the resurrection of Xuanyuan Wang Ji, no one knows the truth of the facts, Emperor Jun's move seems to punish Xiao Yao, but he put the shame on himself.
Since she was born as a child, she has one of the most noble clans in the Great Wilderness: the Gaoxin clan. Even when she was upside down, even when she had no face, she clearly knew that she was Gao Xin Jiuyao, but overnight, she lost her clan and became a person without a clan like a lowly slave.
Xiao Yao took out the letters that her father had written to her when the message first came out, and in the past few months, she had been able to sleep peacefully with them. Xiao Yao smiled bitterly, but in half a year, his father changed from unbelief to conviction. stripped him of everything he had given her. Wrong! She shouldn't be called Emperor Jun anymore! He had nothing to do with her anymore, and she should call him Your Majesty.
Xiao Yao handed the jade slip to Jing, "Help me destroy it!"
Jing didn't do so, but put the jade slip in his sleeve.
Xiao Yao didn't care, and said: "Actually, that's fine, I originally wanted to take you to Wushen Mountain, but now you don't have to please that majesty, and you don't have to worry about the opposition of a bunch of courtiers."
The wind chimes under the porch rang a few times, and Coral came in, served two bowls of tea to Jing and Xiaoyao, and quietly withdrew.
Xiao Yao drank tea, sighed softly, and asked, "Are you worried about coral?"
"I want to send her back, but she has served me for decades, everyone knows that she is my maidservant, Gao Xin people regard me as Gao Xin's great shame, after she goes back, I am afraid that life will be difficult, so I want to keep her again, these days after thinking about it, I don't have an idea."
If she is alone, she will stay if she is willing to stay, but she also has an older brother and a younger sister, the elder brother is in the army, and the younger sister is married, leaving her in Xuanyuan is not good for her and her relatives. “
Xiao Yao didn't expect Jing to find out the matter so clearly, "Then what do you say?"
"Tu Shan has a lot of business in Gaoxin, such as jewelry, spices and other businesses are many female customers, there has been a lack of female heads, Coral has been in the palace for many years, and he has seen countless treasures, and his vision and knowledge are not ordinary people, he is very suitable to be in charge of the jewelry business, with the name of Tu Shan, ordinary people dare not disturb her trouble, I also greeted Bei Shui, and Bei Shui said that he would order him to go down and take care of one or two."
"Just do as you say." It's not a big deal, but it's rare that Jing is thoughtful and lets Xiao Yao let go of a worry.
Xiao Yao called Coral in and told Coral about Jing's arrangement. Jing explained exactly where the store was, and Coral cried when she heard that she was close to her parents. These days, Xiao Yao is bitter, she is also bitter in her heart, Xiao Yao still has relatives around her, but she is alone, there is nowhere to complain, whether she leaves or stays, it is all wrong! I didn't expect her bitterness. Xiao Yao and Jing both saw it in their eyes and remembered it in their hearts.
Xiao Yao said: "Don't cry first, I don't know if you want to or not."
Coral kowtowed to Xiao Yao and Jing, wiped her tears, and said: "Tu Shan's charge is an excellent errand, how many people dream of being so close to my father and mother, of course I am happy!" Thank you
Coral kowtowed to Jing and Xiao Yao, wiped her tears, and said: "Tu Shan's charge is an excellent errand, how many people dream of being so close to my father and mother, of course I am happy!" Thanks, Wang...... Thank you, Miss, thank you Patriarch!"
Xiao Yao smiled: "Thank you for being true, I'll forget it!" You go clean up, say goodbye to Miao Pu, and leave later! You can go down the mountain with him!"
Coral kowtowed three more times before leaving the house, and although he was still wiping his tears, his steps were much lighter.
Xiao Yao held Jing's hand and shook it: "If you help me like this, sooner or later I will be used to being a lazy worm by you!"
Jing smiled and asked, "Last time you said you were going to help me make some pills for trauma." For them, are you ready?"
"Oops! I forgot!" Although too many things have happened in these days, Xiao Yao is still embarrassed to forget what he promised Jing.
Jing said, "Do you have time to do it now?" I'll help you. ”
Xiao Yao hurriedly said: "I am now detained by my grandfather and brother in Xiaoyueding, and I have time. ”
She ran out of the house, busily carrying the pharmaceutical utensils, and before she knew it, her frowning brows expanded, and Jing was a little relieved.
When Zhen Yan came to Xiaoyueding, Jing was also there, helping Xiao Yao grind medicinal herbs.
He said hello with a smile and went into the house to find the Yellow Emperor. After a while, there was an argument in the house. Xiao Yao looked up in surprise and whispered to Jing: "First time!"
Xiao Yao listened attentively, and it turned out that the two were arguing for her. The Yellow Emperor wanted to give Xiao Yao Xuanyuan's clan, so that Xiao Yao could truly become Xuanyuan Wang Ji, and having this most noble clan in the world could be regarded as a kind of protection. The reason for this is that without Xuanyuan, the world will also understand that Xiaoyao is the bloodline of the Xuanyuan royal family, and those who follow the Yellow Emperor and the ancestor of Xuanyuan to fight the world no longer hate Chiyou, and they dare not touch the bloodline of the Yellow Emperor and the ancestor, but the clan of the Central Plains will not buy the account of the Xuanyuan clan at all, the Xiling clan is one of the four major families, and has a great influence on the clans of the Central Plains, as long as the Xiling clan recognizes Xiaoyao, it means that many Central Plains clans must recognize Xiaoyao.
The grandfather and grandson quarreled over whether Xiao Yao should be called Xuanyuan Jiuyao or Xiling Jiu Yao, Xiao Yao really couldn't listen to it anymore, ran to the door, and shouted: "Have you asked me what I mean?"
The Yellow Emperor and Zhen Yan both looked at Xiao Yao, and then remembered that they still needed to consult Xiao Yao's opinion.
Zhen Xuan said: "Grandpa, your grandson can't convince you, so let Xiaoyao choose by himself." ”
Xiao Yao was just about to speak, but the Yellow Emperor said kindly, "Won't you discuss it with Jing?"
Zhen Xuan immediately said, "Grandpa, what does Jing have to do with this matter?"
The Yellow Emperor smiled as sly as a fox, looked at Zhen Xuan and said, "Do you say it has anything to do with him?"
A trace of shame flashed in his eyes, and he was so angry that he complained like a child: "I have never seen a grandfather like you, and he refuses to help his own grandson at all, are you still not my grandfather?"
Seeing that they were about to quarrel again, Xiao Yao hurriedly said, "When did I say I wanted one?" Can't I just have a name and no clan?"
The Yellow Emperor and Zhuan Xuan said in unison: "No!" Resolutely, full of imperial tone.
Xiao Yao burst out laughing and said to Zhen Yao, "Look, grandpa still helps you!"
Xiao Yao lowered her head and thought about it, she didn't plan to ask what Jing meant, Zhen Xuan and the Yellow Emperor were her relatives, and it didn't matter who she offended, but for Jing, they were two emperors, the emperor's heart was unpredictable, and Xiao Yao didn't want Jing to take risks.
Xiao Yao thought silently for a while, and said, "I choose the Xiling clan." "Xiling and Tu Shan are right together, but Xuanyuan is too noble, and there will be too many constraints.
A few days later, the patriarch of the Xiling clan announced that Xiao Yao would be written into the family tree, and Xiao Yao became the eldest lady of the Xiling family.
In order to congratulate the Xiling clan, Xuanyuan Guojun rewarded countless rare treasures, and also rewarded Xiao Yao with the Zhangguo Hall on the top of Xiaoyue in Shennong Mountain. Zhangguo Hall was once the palace of Emperor Yan's daughter Yao Ji, Zhangguo Mountain is famous for producing beautiful jade, the word "Zhang Gu" has the meaning of beautiful jade, which not only coincides with the name of Jiu Yao, but also implies that Xiao Yao is as noble as Wang Ji.
Since the Black Emperor ascended the throne, the Yellow Emperor has never issued a decree, but the reward for Xiao Yao is given in the name of the Yellow Emperor and the Black Emperor, and the holy oracle is stamped with the seals of the two emperors at the same time, which is also a great wonder throughout the ages.
The queen mother sent a maid to send forty-eight jars of peach wine and forty-eight bottles of chalcedony to congratulate Xiling Jiuyao. The queen mother has always been cold, and when the Black Emperor got married, she only gave ninety-nine jars of peach wine, and the generous gift to Xiao Yao made everyone understand that this apprentice had an extraordinary status in the heart of the queen mother.
When Xiao Yao was robbed of the identity of Gao Xin Wang Ji, all the people who were afraid of Xiao Yao thought that the opportunity had come, but they didn't expect that the Yellow Emperor and the Black Emperor didn't mind that Xiao Yao was Chi You's daughter, and showed their love for Xiao Yao with great fanfare.
For Xuanyuan's old clan, the surname Xiling reminded them that even if Xiao Yao was the daughter of Chiyou, she was the bloodline of Xuanyuan's ancestor after King Xuanyuan, and the daughter of Xuanyuan Wang Ji who died in battle to protect them. The powerful ministers and generals led by Ying Long and Li Yan all made it clear that they only recognized Xiao Yao as the daughter of Xuanyuan Wang Ji, and nothing else. Coupled with the attitudes of the two Majesties of the Yellow Emperor and the Black Emperor, Xuanyuan's old clan knew very well that no matter how much they hated Chi You, they could not transfer their hatred to Xiao Yao, who had the blood of the Xuanyuan clan and the Xiling clan, let alone hurt Xiao Yao.
The clans of the Central Plains were terrified in the face of the oracles of the two emperors, and after the orphan of the Mu family was seriously injured, the ruthlessness of the Yellow Emperor resurfaced in his heart, and the six major clans of the Central Plains who knew the inside story also remembered the ruthlessness of the Black Emperor, and the isolated Black Emperor could not hesitate to punish the Fan family and the Zheng family to kill the murderer, and now the powerful Black Emperor will treat the people who hurt Xiaoyao can be imagined.
They can't let go of their hatred for Xiaoyao, but is it revenge for hundreds of years ago, or extermination? All the clans made the most sensible choices.
Xiao Yao took Jing to visit the Zhangguo Palace, it is rumored that Yao Ji loves flowers, although people have passed away for nearly a thousand years, the palace maids still take good care of the flowers and plants, the strange flowers and plants in the garden, the purple and red, and all over the amber stream, it is a bit like the Yiqing Garden of Cheng'en Palace.
Xiao Yao walked to the lakeside, picked up a handful of water, watched the water droplets dripping from his fingers, and said with a smile: "My father once told me that he is not an ordinary father, and the only thing he can give me is the prestige of a country, but in the end he took it back." No, I should have called him Your Majesty, but I always forget. ”
Jing took Xiao Yao's hand and said: "The water will eventually flow from your fingers, it seems that there is nothing in your palm, but you can't deny the process because of the result, just now you did have a handful of water in your hand." Xiao Yao was stunned, Jing wiped her hands clean, "His Majesty Emperor Jun used to be your father, and he doted on you very much, and those really existed. ”
There was a mist in Xiao Yao's eyes: "You're right. ”
Jing dragged Xiao Yao to sit on the grass by the lake: "This rumor is menacing, exposing the secret of your life experience, under the arrangement of the two Majesties, you have changed from the eldest princess of Gaoxin to the eldest lady of the Xiling clan, and it seems that everything is over." But for you, it's just the beginning! Even if you have the protection of two Majesties, they can't stop people from hostile, taunting, isolating, and making things difficult for you, and you need to learn how to face the hatred of many people as Miss Xiling. Perhaps no one would dare to challenge the majesty of the two Majesties at the risk of annihilation, but it is hard to guarantee that no one will secretly hire a killer to assassinate you, and you must also learn how to live strong as Chiyou's daughter. Xiaoyao, escaping will not let everything pass, face it bravely!"
Xiao Yao looked at Jing blankly for a while, and actually reached out and pinched Jing's cheek: "You, when I first met, what was your name?" Who named it for you?"
Jing smiled: "Ye Seventeen, you got it." ”
Xiao Yao held his heart and sighed: "You are really Jing!" Is it because you are the patriarch, why do you speak in such a tone like 颛顼?"
"I've always been like this, but it's just ......" Jing smiled and looked at Xiao Yao, wanting to stop talking.
"Just what?"
"It's just that because of a person named Mei Xiaoliu, he was blinded by love."
Xiao Yao was angry and laughed, beating Jing, Jing dodged left and right, the two frolicked and rolled on the grass, Jing raised his hands and said, "Truce!" Surrender, I surrender!"
Xiao Yao stretched out her limbs, lying on her back on the grass, looking at the blue sky and white clouds: "Actually, I knew you were a treacherous!" With only qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, where can you make the future patriarchs of Chishui Fenglong and Lirong Chang's family obey you? It's just that you've never shown me your shrewd and powerful side, and I've often forgotten that you can be like them. ”
Jing sat beside Xiao Yao and looked down at her: "Xiao Yao, no matter if you encounter a fierce beast or a cliff in the future, I think you know, I will accompany you all the way." ”
Xiao Yao smiled at the corner of her lips: "Do you know why I chose the Xiling Clan?"
Jing smiled and said, "I know." ”
Xiao Yao raised a hand, Jing held it, and the two were silent, letting the warm sunlight linger on them.
