Xia Ji hesitated to stand in front of the door of Huaqing Palace, raised his hand to knock on the door, but after thinking about it, he pushed it open directly.

The door opened abruptly.

Moment.

The sound of countless mechanisms sounding at the same time, and the momentum was terrifying.

In the darkness, many bows and crossbows that shimmered with cold light all turned around and faced the front of the gate.

And Xiao Yuanwu, who was wearing a wide nightgown, had already turned over and fell down at some point, her lotus-like calves were half exposed and half hidden, she stepped barefoot on the cold stone surface, and her nails were still smeared with flower oil.

With a gentle gaze, his thin hand held a broken red crossbow and raised his hand to the door.

The light outside the door shone in brightly, and it was a little dazzling.

Xia Ji's gaze swept, and at this moment, he felt at least thousands of bows and crossbows aimed at him, as if this Huaqing Palace had been transformed into a fortress by his fiancée.

That's really capable.

He reminded softly, "It's me." ”

Needless to say, Xiao Yuanwu already knew that someone was coming, if on weekdays, she would not be so nervous at all, but now there are some cups and snakes.

She let out an "oh" and quickly threw the broken red crossbow back on the bed, while the whole person threw herself back into the quilt like a cat.

The murderous aura of thousands of bows and crossbows also disappeared in an instant.

The little lady lay on her back, covered the quilt, and then muttered, "Xia Ji, it's really rude for you to enter the house without knocking." ”

Xia Ji didn't care about her, just got closer, sat on the edge of the bed and asked, "What's going on?" aren't you going to confess to me?"

Xiao Yuanwu coughed lightly twice, his face turned a little paler, and his eyes flashed with a strange color: "Okay, I'll confess to you." ”

Xia Ji listened quietly.

Xiao Yuanwu said: "I have a cold. ”

Xia Ji: ...

"What else?"

"I've got a bad cold!"

Xia Ji snorted coldly, stood up, and turned around to leave.

Xiao Yuanwu didn't stop him, in fact, she had just gotten out of the bed with a crossbow and stepped on the ground, using all her strength.

At this time, not only was her body weak, but her internal organs were like ice cubes, and it was extremely difficult for her to even speak.

She shot directly at that one, betting on a 10 percent odds.

But I didn't get it right.

Admitting defeat and conceding defeat, she lost a few hole cards, and even the Valkyrie was blown up.

Only then can she escape back, and now is the time when she is most painful, self-blaming, helpless, and at the lowest point, so she wants to return to Xia Ji, but she doesn't want him to see her weakness.

The regent walked to the door, and suddenly turned sideways and asked, "Are you really going to say anything to me?"

Xiao Yuanwu shrunk in the quilt, her body trembling and silent.

She didn't want to say it, and she couldn't say it.

Hum!

Xia Ji's expression turned cold, and he strode out of the way he came.

Two or three peach blossoms slid off the glazed tiles of Huaqing Palace.

The palace door was closed, and it was dark inside the empty house.

Night.

A pair of traditional Chinese medicine prescribed by the imperial doctor to ward off the cold, and a tray containing white porridge and light diet were sent to the Huaqing Palace by the palace maid.

"Concubine Yuan, the prince said that if you need anything, just tell us... He's busy these days, so he won't come to see you. The little palace maid who delivered food and medicine said softly, "I'll call the imperial doctor to come and show you, right?"

Yuan Concubine?

Xiao Yuanwu was stunned, and then remembered that this was the result of his previous business, and there were too many things recently, so he actually forgot about it.

She smiled softly, and then said in a voice that was completely inaudible: "No need, just bring me some white porridge every morning and evening."

Let's go down. ”

The maid groaned, and then withdrew.

It was dark again.

Xiao Yuanwu didn't even have the strength to light the candles, but he was in the quilt, looking at the black and empty hall, his expression was weak and deep, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

...

Boom!!

The five fingers of Xia Ji's right hand clenched suddenly.

A furious breath of platinum surged out.

Although the twenty-seventh sacred bone has not been formed, this right hand is already very sacred.

He felt that even if there was an evil ghost standing in front of him, he would be able to slap it in circles with his true qi.

"Not bad, not bad. ”

The regent was quite satisfied with the progress, "It's a pity that this king is impregnable, and the curses will not come here at all, they will only operate on the fringes of a country." Otherwise, it's not bad to practice your hands.

As for the Seventh Secret Realm... I still don't want to look at it for the time being, after all, the current situation is very weird, and if I meet those three big curses, I don't know what will happen again. ”

In the past two days, the hundred officials have begun to prepare for the formation of the forbidden army.

It seems that the regent agreed to form it, and then it is none of his business how this will be implemented...

Anyway, it's just three thousand soldiers who need their own protection, nothing.

Xia Ji didn't bother to care.

Concubine Hua decided on her side, saying that the day after tomorrow was an auspicious day, she was preparing for a heavy gift, and she also asked Xia Ji to prepare, it was best to burn incense and bathe, fast for two days, and then go to Beishan with her to pay homage to the great immortal.

Xia Ji casually agreed.

I thought that this day would pass as usual.

Unexpectedly, the next day, Pang Jing appeared in the royal capital with a team of disciples of the Holy Gate.

The Holy Gate remains the state religion.

Although the master of Tongxuan and the previous master of the door are gone, this matter was originally only known to a small group of people at the top.

After the Shadow Academy Palace was slaughtered, this matter could only be known by a powerhouse of the Xuan level.

The information is very well hidden.

Therefore, the Holy Gate is still as stable as Mount Tai in the eyes of outsiders.

Because of the relationship between the regent and the original holy gate, Pang Jing entered the palace for the first time.

Xia Ji is fishing with his eyes closed.

The shadows are sparse and slanted, and the sky light penetrates the shade of the trees, casting a mottled light the size of a copper coin.

The Son of the Tiger stood outside the pavilion, and he was not impatient.

The right hand was shackled with a black iron chain, and his eyes showed a slight burning flame color, and there was some firm brilliance hidden in it.

The original king butcher knife behind his back is gone, replaced by a strange bronze long column, which seems to be some kind of totem, and on his waist is a broad-bladed monster knife with a jagged back, this knife just looks at it, and he knows that it is a magic knife.

The Holy Gate is rich in heritage, and it is not surprising that he got such a knife for the Holy Son.

Pang was shocked to see that the regent was fishing, and he didn't bother, just stood outside the pavilion, not squinting, just looking at the man's back.

Whether the wind and grass are blowing, the peach blossoms falling, or the water is murmuring, it has nothing to do with him.

After a while.

Xia Ji spoke: "What are you doing here?"

Pang was shocked and said, "Marry a wife." ”

Xia Ji: ...

Pang Jing continued to explain: "The elders said that the state religion is one, and now there is too much turmoil, and I, who is the Holy Son, need to quickly find a royal lady to marry, which will help the people to be stable."

The elders also advise you to also choose a disciple of the Holy Gate to include in your room. In this way, it is a stable signal for both the Great Wei rivers and lakes and the Great Wei court. ”

Xia Ji thought about it, Pang was shocked and didn't say that he really forgot, King Wei still has three princesses, change Ming'er to set up a banquet, let him pick it himself.

As for him.

"I'll forget it, I've reached Tongxuan, and I don't want to marry a wife for the time being. ”

Pang was a little embarrassed, obviously he was brainwashed by the elders every day during this time, so the sturdy man coughed twice and said, "Actually, there are still many beautiful girls in the Holy Gate. ”

Xia Ji smiled: "It's not like you can say this." ”

Pang Jing also smiled: "Damn, there is no way, now you and I, one is the Holy Son, the other is the Regent, there are some things that really need to be done." This time, I came and brought a lot of sisters from the Holy Gate who are candidates for you, you can pick one for yourself and keep it in the palace. At least that's a signal, isn't it?"

Xia Ji said: "Feel free, if it's just a formality, then it's not wrong to find a Holy Gate woman to enter the palace, but when she wants to leave, she can leave at any time."

I have something to do tomorrow and need to go out.

Let's have a feast in two days. ”

When Pang was shocked to hear that the regent had something, he was immediately blessed, and his eyes lit up: "Are you going to fight?"

Xia Ji thought about the appearance of Tian Gou when Concubine Hua said, "Worship the immortals, the heirs of the immortals", and her expression seemed to be "one level lower along with herself", which meant that she wanted to grab herself and go to the Tian Immortal together.

So, the regent nodded: "No accident, it should be fought." ”

Pang was ecstatic: "Take me." ”
