116. Return to the dunes
I thought of Madame Yuchi, so I asked Daji, "Queen, how is Madame Yuqi doing?" ”
Daji looked back, "You want to see her?" ”
I just asked, but I didn't expect Daji to answer like that, so I nodded.
I followed Daji and Ximei to the back garden of the middle palace, and met Mrs. Jade Chi in a side hall.
Madame Jade was lying in a bed of ice, her eyes closed and her body unclothed. Her body has a strange white color, which is reminiscent of the legend of the jade pipa spirit.
I'll look at Daji. She looked at Madame Jade Chi, who was lying quietly, "Do you wonder why her body is this color?" Each of us is proficient in at least one summoning technique. I am a nine-tailed fox, Ximei is a nine phoenix, and the jade chime is a jade pipa. ”
"At the time of the attack, she summoned the jade lute. If it is an ordinary fire, the jade pipa can keep the jade chime unhindered. But the other party used the three-flavor real fire, and the jade pipa only saved her from turning into ashes on the spot, but it became like this. ”
"Then," I asked, "is Madame Jade all right?" ”
Daji looked at me, "Look at the destiny!" ”
Ximei asked me if I would like to send a car to pick me up and go to the sand dunes with the boat. I said no. The Dune Palace is 500 miles away from Chaoge, and I don't know how much time it takes to take a carriage and a boat. Why don't I fly over by myself!
Ishiji was in no hurry to arrange a course for me. When she heard that I was going to a banquet at the Dune Palace, she managed to send Biyun to make a list of ministers who would attend the banquet, and then called me to her room.
Shi Ji held the list in his hand and said to me: "Among the three princes and nine secretaries in Beijing, Fei Lian, Fei Zhong, Lei Kai, Chonghou Hu, and You Hou Xi are sure to participate. Today, I have left Chaoge and headed for the sand dunes. The rest of the seven people, Jizi, Weizi, Bigan, Wen Zhong, Shang Rong, Zuyi, and Huang Feihu, will not go. ”
"At present, there are many contradictions among the various factions in the DPRK. Nezha, you are an outsider, and I hope that you will have a good relationship with all parties and not take an obvious side in it. In the past two days, you have met all these three princes and nine princes who do not go to the banquet. ”
"See both?" I was a little surprised, "Visiting one by one?" ”
"No!" "They often come and go. If you spend a little more time in a home, you're sure to see something else. ”
So the next day, I went to Grandpa Bigan and stayed for the whole day. Sure enough, on this day, Jizi, Weizi, and Huang Feihu took turns to visit, and all four of them were gathered at once.
The basket and the microns come from the front and back feet. Just like the first time I went to Bigan's house, Miko sat in the right seat, and Weizi and Bigan Grandpa were lined up on the left and right. I was called by Bigan to sit in the last seat.
When they heard that I was going to the sand dunes for a feast, the princes looked displeased. When I mentioned that the king said that the treasury was now sufficient, and there was too much food to eat, Prince Weizi said angrily: "Can't eat anything? This year's drought has led to famine in various places. Since the conquest of Dongyi, Chaoge has added a million people, and the treasury is empty. Doesn't he know? ”
Miko motioned to stop him from going any further.
"Then the day after tomorrow, I won't go to the sand dunes?" I asked softly.
"How's that going to work?" Miko said, "With the king's order, how can you not go?" ”
However, Grandpa Bi advised me not to be too prominent at the banquet, let alone get too close to Fei Zhong, Fei Lian, Lei Kai and others.
Naturally, I agreed to all of them, but I didn't take them too seriously.
When Huang Feihu came, what he said was decent. No opinion was expressed about the banquet of the Emperor.
In the evening, Grandpa Bigan and I inquired about the other three ministers. Bigan said: "Lord Shang Rong has already taken a long leave of absence and returned to live in the mall, and you may not be able to find him for a while." ”
"Lord Shang Rong is sick?" I asked.
Bigan sighed, "When Mabel was arrested, Shang Rong admonished him. The king did not listen. Lord Shang Rong took a leave of absence. The king let it go. ”
Doesn't it seem that there is no one to speak for him!
"Master Zui has been with Master Wen a lot lately." Bigan continued, "They were unanimously opposed to the release of Siber Jichang. ”
"Why?" I asked.
"Nezha, you don't know. At the beginning, it was Zoe who spoke in front of the king. Wen Zhong sent troops to capture Xibo. Zu Yi was the nephew of Ji Chang's mother. If Xibo is released, the two will inevitably be embarrassed when they meet in court. ”
And what's going on?
The next day, Biyun Boy accompanied me to visit Wen Zhong again. Sure enough, Zoey was there, saving me the trouble of visiting one by one.
When I came back from Chaoge, a sudden gust of wind blew, and then it rained heavily. Biyun Boy hurriedly draped a white cloak on my body.
In the blink of an eye, my skirt and his clothes were soaking wet. But not a drop of rain fell from the clothes under the cloak. It seems that his cloak is still a treasure.
remembered that because of me, his foot was lame for half a month. I feel a little sorry when I think about it now. But my loss is even greater! All at once from a boy to a girl. Otherwise, shouldn't this person be him?
But this rain is strange, as if it was for us. Less than a mile away, the ground wasn't even wet.
When we returned to the academy, it happened that Ishiji came out of the room. When she saw that I was wearing a cloak of blue clouds, her face was not very happy.
I immediately understood that this cloak must have been given to Biyun Boy by Shi Ji. So he quickly took it off and gave it back to him.
On the third day, I woke up early. When I open my closet, what should I wear? The point is, how do I get there? Flying through the air is the most straightforward. However, the academy and the Dune Palace are both on the banks of the Yellow River, so you can take the waterway!
So it was decided. Then I only need to wear a long-sleeved and high-slit sharkskin swimsuit.
So I changed into my bathing suit, walked barefoot, walked out of the room, and then flew up in the morning light, crossing a distance of less than 100 feet and falling into the water. Release the dragon boat, ride on it, and gallop away.
In the early autumn morning, the river is already a little cool. Splashes of water kept falling on my bare legs, bringing a chill with them.
From the beginning of the sun to the three poles of the sun, a full two and a half hours, I finally drove into the long-lost continent. In early autumn, the lake is wider than in winter, and some of the islands that are not tall have been hidden below the surface.
This time I finally saw the so-called water bandits and the like. But when their boats saw me coming in the wind and waves, they all chose to stay away, and no one dared to come forward.
After driving for half an hour in the mainland, I finally saw the sand dunes in front of me. The sand dunes have literally turned into an island!
The two tall towers in front of the palace are now less than half as tall as they were because of the rising water. The soldiers on the tower saw me coming from a distance and immediately raised their weapons in their hands. "Who?"
I rode a dragon boat in a semicircle in the water and stopped in front of the water gate. "I'm Nezha, a professor at the Chaoge Women's Branch of Fuxi-Nuwa Academy, and I came to the Dune Palace to meet me at the edict of the king, please let me know!"
"Is there an edict?" The soldier asked.
What does it mean?
"I'm here on the king's orders, so please let me know."
The soldier looked down at me from above, "The king is having a banquet in the palace. If the professor has something to do, let's wait for the banquet to end! ”
MD! It's really a dog's eye looking down on people.
I pointed to the soldier, "I tell you, this girl is the king's niece." I'll tell my uncle to move your head! With that, I started the dragon boat and turned to leave.
I'll take a look at the Water Gate of the Imperial Palace. Isn't this the gate I stepped on the steps to enter in the winter? Don't let me go out of the water, I can walk under the water!
I collected the dragon boat and sank my body underwater. Swam in directly from a few dozen feet under the water gate.
With my memories of two years ago, I have been swimming to the center of the palace. Maybe because I dived deep enough (and didn't need to breathe) to be undetected.
I saw a huge square above the water, and from the circular view on the top, I could already see King Su and Daji sitting in the middle.
At the end of the pool are steps leading to above the water's surface. So I stepped up the steps and walked up step by step.
As soon as my head came out of the water, I heard the king say, "Nonsense! That's my good niece, why don't you let her in? ”
I answered, "Uncle, I've come in!" Then a few steps out of the water.
