Chapter Twenty-Four: Suddenly Like a Dream of the World

Su Liruo gently shook Xiao Wei awake.

Xiao Wei opened her eyes dimly, "Sister Ruo..." was taken aback, "Ah! This..."

Su Liruo covered her mouth and whispered: "Don't make a sound, listen to me, we are now on a chariot, and there are soldiers guarding us in front and behind." What happened after you and I went to sleep last night? I don't know yet, but I've just observed, and it's almost noon..."

Xiao Wei's eyes widened in surprise, and then nodded desperately, Su Liruo let go of her hand, and she sighed and said, "Could it be that Mr. Cheng sold us?" ”

Su Liruo's heart moved, and saw that there was a corner of the car where they packed their bags last night, she took the bags, opened them, and saw that the poems and songs in it were all there, and there was an extra letter. She opened the letterhead and read it quietly. The letter was written by Zhao Yue, and the content was probably that Su Liruo's trip was dedicated to the Moon Country by Day, and Emperor Zhen had been sending people to find beauties as a tribute to the Moon Country this year. Although Zhao Yue knew that she was unparalleled, he didn't want to mention it, but after the prince met her, he had to get her, and he made a move to abolish the concubine. Emperor Zhen was furious, and in desperation, Zhao Yue recommended her to go, as a beauty dedicated to the Moon Kingdom in the Kingdom of Day... At the end of the letter, Zhao Yue apologized repeatedly, saying that this move was really helpless, if he didn't send her away, even if Emperor Zhen let her go, the prince's concubine would never give up. Finally, tell her to take care of everything!

Su Liruo was paralyzed on the inner brocade, covered in a cold sweat, and her eyes were pale.

Seeing this, Xiao Wei grabbed the letterhead and looked at it, and immediately became angry: "I didn't expect Mr. to be such a person?" Offering my sister as a tribute to the Moon Country is extremely hateful! ”

Su Liruo was unable to lean on the brocade for a long time, and then said quietly: "Since my life was saved by Mr., I should relieve his worries, and from then on, I will give him no more debts, and the two will be cleared..."

"If sister..."Xiao Wei stomped his feet anxiously: "Sister is a noble status, how can they be allowed to be trampled on by ignorant people at will?" ”

Su Liruo's heart ached, and she smiled sadly: "Yuguo has no princess since then, have you forgotten what your grandmother said?" Reduced to a foreign land as a stranger, I am just a wandering miserable person, how can I say that I am noble? It's a long way to go, and the Moon Country is still unknown. ”

Xiao Wei looked at Su Liruo, felt even more uncomfortable, packed her bags, and silently accompanied her.

Su Liruo's eyes were blank and helpless, the obsession in her heart was finally shattered by the cruel reality, and even a trace of fantasy was torn apart. At this moment, the pain permeated the whole body and penetrated deep into the bones.

Moon Country, Yi Wangfu.

Nightshade wandered back and forth in the doorway, hesitating, his head disturbed, and sighed again.

Finally, Feng Xuanyu's voice came from inside the house: "Come in!" ”

Night Shadow was stunned, and then happily pushed the door in: "Lord, are you looking for me?" ”

"You're looking for me! Tell me something! Feng Xuanyu had long known that he had been wandering at the door for a long time.

Night Shadow scratched her ears and muttered for a while before she said, "The prince must forgive his subordinates for their innocence before he can say..."

"Oh." Feng Xuanyu raised his sword eyebrows, and walked leisurely in front of the window: "Then don't say it." ”

"Ahh Nightshade was anxious: "But... But... I have to say again! That girl..."

"You probably forgot what this king said..."Feng Xuanyu's voice instantly became very cold.

"My subordinates don't dare to forget! But the girl said that the prince had given her a jade pendant..."Nightshadow said hurriedly.

Feng Xuanyu was stunned: A piece of jade pendant? He remembered that he was twelve years old that year, and sneaked to the Liuli Palace at night, when the Liuli Palace was banned, and the violators were immediately beheaded and heavily guarded. But he couldn't help but miss his mother, and when he groped his way to the gate of the Liuli Palace, watching the soldiers patrolling back and forth with swords, he couldn't get close at all. Disappointed, he was about to go back but accidentally made a noise, and the patrol soldier heard the noise and drew his sword to see what was going on, and he held his breath and did not dare to act rashly. The flickering swords of several soldiers were getting closer and closer, and his heart was already sweating in his throat. At this time, a seven or eight-year-old girl in green ran out of the other corner, and called out immaturely: "Uncle, are you playing hide and seek?" ”

Several soldiers suddenly turned their heads when they heard the voice, and when they saw the little girl, they all breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at each other and said, "It turned out to be a little girl!" ”

The little girl blinked her big eyes and asked with a smile, "My kitten is gone, uncle, have you seen it?" ”

"Nope!" Several local soldiers immediately drove her away: "You are the child in the palace, you are running around alone in the middle of the night, this is a forbidden place, hurry back, don't make trouble here..."

"I'm from Sangoguya, and my kitten is gone." The little girl in green pursed her lips, but raised her hand obediently and walked slowly.

When the soldiers saw that the little girl was gone, they also returned to the gate of the Liuli Palace to continue patrolling.

He breathed a sigh of relief and immediately prostrated away, nervous at the figure that had jumped out of the shadow. Ding Qing took a look: It was the little girl who was looking for the cat, he glared at her in annoyance, turned away, and the little girl's voice came from behind him: "I helped you out of the siege just now, and you don't thank me?" ”

He suddenly turned around and stared at her tightly, his eyes full of fierceness.

The little girl smiled brightly, and did not seem to feel his anger. "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone, it's our secret." As she spoke, she stretched out her little finger to pull the hook, and her big eyes sparkled, looking pure and flawless in the silent night light.

He didn't stretch out his hand after all, since his mother's accident, he was isolated by his father and the emperor to see his mother, he didn't trust anyone, including Concubine Ling, who has now adopted him. But he squirmed his lips and said in a low voice, "Thank you! ”

The little girl lowered her fingers in disappointment and approached him: "Brother, can we play together in the future?" ”

"Can't!" He grimaced and walked away.

The little girl hurriedly followed: "Brother, can we meet again?" ”

"Can't!" He was impatient.

The little girl was stunned and seemed to be very aggrieved: "Then I miss my brother, where to find my brother?" ”

He stopped and glanced at her indifferently.

The little girl was a little overwhelmed by his staring, and she seemed to sense that he was angry. I accidentally saw a piece of exquisite peiyu hanging from his waist, stretched out his hand, held it in his hand, and said happily: "I will miss my brother in the future, Xue Ke will go to my brother with the jade pendant..."

He watched her petite body disappear into the night, it was his tenth birthday, and the jade pendant given by his father. Thinking of his ruthlessness towards his mother, this jade pendant was worthless in his heart, although he had heard that this jade pendant was worth a fortune.

Twelve years have passed, is it the little girl in green?

Feng Xuanyu frowned and pondered, if it was her, it would indeed be thanks to her help back then. He looked up at the Nightshade, his face much gentler.

Nightshadow hurriedly said, "That girl has been waiting in the front hall for a long time!" ”

"Let's go!" Feng Xuanyu said expressionlessly, striding forward.

Nightshadow finally let go of his hanging heart and followed out.

In the front hall, the maid had added tea to Jiang Xueke three times, and the maid peeked at her secretly, it was the first time she had seen such a charming and beautiful woman.

Feng Xuanyu came to the front hall and saw Jiang Xueke, his eyes instantly turned cold: "It's you!" ”

Jiang Xueke immediately got up and said with a smile: "It turns out that the prince still remembers me?" I don't know if the prince remembers this jade pendant? She took out the jade pendant and presented it to him.

Feng Xuanyu sat down in contemplation, raised his eyes for a while and said, "I recognize." ”

Jiang Xueke was still smiling and beautiful. "Xue Ke wants to ask the prince for a favor!"

Feng Xuanyu's face was gloomy, and his eyes were a little colder: "Say it!" ”

Nightshadow silently stepped aside, motioning for the maid who was pouring tea for Feng Xuanyu to quickly retreat.

"Xue Ke has missed his life for 20 years for this jade pendant, and how many aristocratic sons, Xue Ke disdains it. Shouldn't the prince have an explanation for Xue Ke? Jiang Xueke sat down gently, with a tender face.

Nightshade swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty, lowering her head and not daring to look at the prince's face.

Feng Xuanyu's lips swept over the coldness, and the cold plummeted. "What do you want the king to do?"

"The prince is not married, Xue Ke is not married, why not the fate of you and me back then?" She looked calm, but her heart was turbulent, after all, as a lady of the family, it was already a shocking move to enter the palace of the palace in a grand manner, and it was simply shocking to show love to a man in such a reserved and bold manner. But for her, if she doesn't firmly grasp this man like a god at this time, when will she wait? Even if he was as cold as ice, he couldn't shake her obsession for so many years.

Nightshade felt her heart tremble so hard that she could barely breathe.

Feng Xuanyu looked at her coldly, even if he was dominant in the rivers and lakes and used to seeing the wind and clouds, he didn't admit that Dayue would have such a bold and reckless woman. "You want to be the king's concubine?" His voice was as calm as a pool of stagnant water.

"Yes!" Jiang Xuekerao is not afraid of the world and acts boldly, but his cold eyes and unwavering words still make people tremble slightly.

Feng Xuanyu retracted his gaze, elegantly picked up the teacup, and tasted it carefully, as if immersed in the leisurely fragrance of tea.

Night Shadow finally had the courage to raise his head and secretly glance at Feng Xuanyu, and when he saw him leisurely drinking tea alone, leaving Jiang Xueke aside, he couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Jiang Xueke's face changed slightly, he couldn't hold back the anxiety in his heart, and the hand in his sleeve was quietly clenched, what did he mean by this? Neither refusal nor statement?

Feng Xuanyu finally put down the teacup and got up slowly, his voice was as cold as ice and snow: "You are not worthy!" Then he departed.

Jiang Xueke's heart seemed to be slashed severely, she heard that he was indifferent and ruthless, but she didn't admit that she was so ruthless, she gritted her teeth and shouted: "But with it, I am worthy of the prince." Clenching the jade pendant tightly, she endured the heartache.

Feng Xuanyu paused, squinting, and swept the cold.

Jiang Xueke looked at his cold and upright body, his eyes gradually became moist, and he said word by word: "Even if the prince is ruthless, he will not take revenge." If Xue Ke is not worthy of the prince, it is not too much to ask for the identity of a side concubine! After that, she went away in embarrassment, and she was afraid that the tears would burst out of her eyes and collapse after a slight pause.

Feng Xuanyu had a deep face, watching her stagger away, for a long time, but sighed faintly, it seems that this kindness must be repaid, after all, he does not want to owe others, especially a woman.

A few days later, Feng Xuanyu was ordered to enter the palace, but he didn't admit that Concubine Ling and Feng Xuanjing were also there. He was slightly shocked in his heart, Concubine Ling rarely leaves Wutong Palace, why is she in Huiren Palace today? He bowed quietly and glanced at Feng Xuanjing, but Feng Xuanjing shrugged his shoulders and expressed helplessness.

Emperor Entropy waited for him to sit down, looked at Concubine Ling, and then said: "Yu'er, you will enter the palace today, and there are some things that need to be discussed with your brothers. ”

Feng Xuanyu and Feng Xuanjing also looked at each other, and said in unison: "Father, please speak!" ”

Emperor Entropy looked at Feng Xuanyu with some doubts and said, "I heard Taiwei Jiang say that you and his only daughter Jiang Xueke were in love, and you used jade pendants as a thing of love back then, but is there such a thing?" ”

Feng Xuanjing was slightly surprised, staring at Feng Xuanyu tightly, unable to believe it.

It turns out that Jiang Xueke is Jiang Taiwei's daughter! Feng Xuanyu sneered in his heart, in love? Something in love? Captain Jiang can really talk nonsense. But he didn't correct the inappropriate words, frowning and silent.

"What's Yu'er's plan to do so?" Concubine Ling seemed to believe what Jiang Taiwei said, and she was even more sure when she saw that Feng Xuanyu was silent.

"Taiwei Jiang's only daughter looks like a fairy, extremely intelligent, Concubine Xiao loves this niece very much, and has often entered the Coral Palace since she was a child. Although Concubine Xiao intended to give her to Ming'er, how could she fall into the flowers and be ruthless, but she didn't expect her heart to belong to Yu'er! "Emperor Entropy's face is happy and he is in a good mood," this is a good story. ”

Feng Xuanyu was still silent, his eyes were deep.

Concubine Ling glanced at Emperor Entropy and said gently: "The mother concubine has seen Jiang Xueke, and she deserves to be the first beauty in Dayue. Looking at the Moon Kingdom, she is the only one who can be Yu'er's princess..."

"It's all up to the father and the emperor, and the mother is the master!" Feng Xuanyu suddenly said in a rambling voice: "Then give her the position of side concubine..."

Feng Xuanjing looked at him meaningfully.

Emperor Entropy was overjoyed and said, "Okay! Good! So much better! ”

Concubine Ling was stunned, what she said was the princess, but he was the side concubine, did he think Jiang Xueke was not worthy? Who else in the world is worthy of being his princess? Why are these brothers vacant princesses, when will they have children if they are so stubborn?

Emperor Entropy said: "There is one more thing that you have to say, the country of the day has dedicated a beauty, and it will be there in a few days, it is the advisor of Emperor Zhen, the righteous daughter of Mr. Zhao Yue, the mentor of the prince Li Moxiao, I heard that this woman is not only beautiful in the city, but also unparalleled in the world." Which of you brothers would like to accept the beauty of the daytime country? ”

Feng Xuanyu was indifferent, but his eyes glanced at Feng Xuanjing.
