Spring is the season of revival of all things, at a glance, the tree pulls out the tender green branches, dotted with the whole tree, it is beautiful and full of vitality, adding a bit of beauty to the beautiful scenery of the palace.

At the same time, in the courtyard to the southwest of the palace.

The begonia flowers are very delicate, and the morning dew so rolls from the begonia leaves and falls into the soil on the ground.

There was a woman sitting at the stone table in the courtyard, just looking at the back was already infinitely beautiful, Xu had just risen, the woman was wearing only a snow-white middle coat and a crimson rabbit fur cloak and sat on a stone bench cushioned with mink.

A green silk hair fell down, and the face without makeup looked less charming and more pure.

The maid next to her stood still respectfully, the woman was playing with an emerald green jade hairpin in her hand, and said lightly: "The prince came to me last night for a night, and left so early this morning, there must be something." The prince has never taken much care of his body, Zhuyu, you go to the big kitchen and let them cook some supplemental food and send it to the prince."

"Yes," said a rather handsome lady beside her, and turned around and slowly retreated.

"How's that woman doing?" The woman said coolly.

Another big girl next to her, who looked quite shrewd, bowed her head and stepped forward respectfully: "Niangniang, the person in the Northwest and East Courtyard can get out of bed and walk now, think about it, you can recover in a few days." ”

"Hmph, her life is really big! None of them died. The woman said with a disdainful and somewhat fierce expression.

"But let her live for a few more days, it's my father's birthday in a few days, and I don't have time these days." The woman continued slowly.

This beauty is the side concubine of King Xiao today, Gu Rou.

She is the most favored concubine of King Xiao in the palace, not only because she is very beautiful, but also because the mother family behind her now has a great influence in the court of Xiao State.

Her father is Gu Zuoxiang, who is very shrewd and cunning, and he always makes people unable to grasp the handle, and even today's emperor who is very iron-blooded can't help him. Before, because the emperor had not completely taken power, he could only watch him slowly grow in the court, and now even the emperor is a little afraid of him.

However, because he is only a civil official, and the forces he has befriended are also civil officials in the court, the emperor is only a little wary of him, but his relationship is too complicated, and the emperor does not dare to act easily.

However, the emperor does not move him now, presumably because he is not completely ready, and there is no excuse. If he dared to have any close contact with the military attaché, the emperor would not let him go first.

But the smarter the person, the greater the ambition, and his ambition is probably known only to him.

On the outskirts of the capital, in a wing room of Mingguang Temple, the purple gold incense burner on the table is carved into a delicate unicorn shape, and the incense spit out is the best red sandalwood agarwood, which smells and makes people feel calm down involuntarily.

There are two people sitting on the couch, each holding a chess piece, which looks like they are playing chess, but listening to what these two people say is not compatible with the chess game.

"The Taoist travels all over the world, and the dragon sees the head but not the tail, but today he has time to see the king, but what's the matter?" The man in the purple gilt robe sat lazily on the couch, his knobby fingers holding a black chess piece, as if thinking but lazily saying.

"The prince is so smart, he should be able to guess why the poor road came." Another old man dressed in a cyan Taoist uniform with some fairy wind bones held a white chess piece in one hand and gently stroked his beautiful hair with the other, and smiled slightly.

These two people are the most famous King Xiao and the Void Daoist today, and one is the most powerful prince of Xiao State, Xiao King Xiao Jingmo.

One is the world-famous Void Dao Chief, it stands to reason that the two should have no intersection, but now they are sitting together and playing chess, which is incredible.

The Void Daoist is a very powerful figure, and it is rumored that he can predict the past and the present, and know the future. However, he is not afraid of power, is not constrained by things, is not trapped in narrowness, and has always been free and easy.

Even the emperors of all countries were respectful to him, because he did have that ability.

A few years ago, there was a catastrophe in Xiao State, but it was because of the reminder of the Void Dao Chief, that Emperor Xiao was able to prepare in advance, so the country did not suffer much loss.

However, the Void Dao Chief is not something that anyone can invite, he has always only counted hexagrams for those who are destined, if not, it is ten thousand taels of gold, and he doesn't want to be powerful.

It is rumored that the royal family of Xiao Guo is beautiful, and now it is true. King Xiao was wearing a purple gilt robe, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, extremely handsome facial features, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, as if he was smiling, but his eyes were very indifferent.

"A few years ago, the Taoist said that the person who was destined by this king would appear in a few years, and that the person who was destined by this king could change the pattern of the world. Presumably, the Taoist came today to tell the king that the man of my fate has appeared! Xiao Jingmo said lightly.

The beautiful phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, his eyes were extremely beautiful, and he seemed to be looking at the chess game gently, but in fact, his eyes were so indifferent that he had no feelings, even if it was about his own affairs, he didn't seem to care.

"The prince really remembered that Poor Dao said five years ago that Poor Dao would come again when that person appeared. However, Lord Wang, Poor Dao can only tell you that she has appeared, but who she is and where she is, Poor Dao can't tell you. First, the secret of heaven must not be revealed, and secondly, Poor Dao can't figure out who this person is, but the prince has a fate with her and will eventually see her. Perhaps, she may be next to you, the prince. The Void Daoist looked at Xiao Jingmo and said with an unfathomable smile.

"Thank you for telling me, this king knows." Xiao Jingmo lowered his head slightly and looked at the chess game, and his phoenix eyes flashed slightly.
