Chapter 4: Your Highness

Yu Yao knelt on the main hall, not daring to say a word.

Since Yu Yao entered the inner hall, no one from the Fifth Highness King Yama, Ziran, or even herself has made a sound. Yu Yao soon noticed the special atmosphere in the five halls, although the inner room seemed to be elegant and simple, but the piles and piles were placed in a particularly neat manner; This place is small and seems to be the regulation of the study of the first post, and there is no superfluous decoration in the inner hall, and all those in the hall can be used to the fullest, and it can be seen that the five highnesses are not very interested in things outside the body, and even have no hobby of calligraphy and painting; There was no one to serve in it, but it was clean and spotless, and the floor that looked like a marble was polished so bright that it could shine a human shadow; Although incense was lit in the hall, there was not the slightest aroma, but a strange smell wafted out, and the smell made people extremely conscious, and the five senses were so keen that they could see the hour when the incense was burning; Such a strange thing made Yu Yao even more frightened, and he didn't dare to look up at King Yama.

Yu Yao only caught a glimpse of a person standing next to the bookshelf not far away, who was holding something to read intently, so she had no choice but to make a big salute and sit in the hall without saying a word, for fear of provoking the king of Yama; I only dare to sigh in my heart, and I can apply the rigor to the objects around me, and I will really be a powerful character. After Ziran led Yu Yao into the palace, he followed the instructions of King Qin Guang and quietly retreated.

Yu Yao stared at the strange incense intently, and it took about a quarter of an hour for the Fifth Highness King Yama to move.

With the sound of clothes sliding across the ground, the Yama Dynasty stepped in the direction of Yu Yao: "Coming?" There was not a trace of emotion in King Yama's voice, it was as still as water.

"Yu Yao has seen the Fifth Highness." Leaned over and buckled his head.

"Get up."

"Your Highness."

After Yu Yao got up, she saw the appearance of King Yama clearly. This person is dressed in a red robe, with dark cloud sleeves, simple as one, and only a jade pendant-style item tied around his waist, which can be counted; When Yu Yao looked up at his face, he found that King Yama was actually a very handsome and beautiful man, a pair of willow eyebrows between the dotted cinnabar mole, two round eyes and pretty pads underneath, under the high bridge of the nose, is a thin but not sharp mouth, straight than a woman A little more delicate, although delicate, but without losing the air of Xuanlang, between the eyebrows can see the dignity of the Venerable One, if it is not for the fact that the Fifth Highness is a strange person, even Yu Yao, this appearance also has a fatal attraction. Yu Yao thought to herself, if it weren't for this peerless appearance, I am afraid that such an eccentric person would not be able to do the errand of the Fifth Highness, and now so many people are going to make their own way because of his temper, and even King Qin Guang are committed to coming to the Fifth Palace, I am afraid that it is all an excuse, it is really to see the peerless face of King Yama.

At this time, King Yama looked at Yu Yao's stunned appearance, and his eyes were unconsciously full of smiles, which made the temperament around him soften a little. The strange fragrance also seemed to inherit the interest of King Yama, and it became more and more faint like the fragrance of green grass, refreshing and tight.

"Do you know why this king is looking for you?"

"Yu Yao... Ignorance. ”

"Are you scared?"

"Nope."

"Oh, then do you know that only a handful of those who enter this king's house go out with joy?" Even such words, when they came out of his mouth, were as calm as water.

"I believe that the Fifth Highness will be fair and just, no matter what."

"What do you mean by that?"

"The Fifth Highness here is not like the ordinary palace of the king, although it is simple, but it can be seen that His Highness has paid attention to every object, which shows that His Highness is a rigorous person; Since Yu Yao entered this hall, the Fifth Highness did not say a word, in fact, he was judging Yu Yao's behavior, but His Royal Highness obviously knew that I was the person brought by King Qin Guang on a special trip, which shows that His Royal Highness is not a favoritist person; And just now, everyone in the hall has their own opinions, but since Yu Yao entered the palace, His Highness has not immediately sent me down, but has repeatedly checked the relevant files, which shows that His Highness should have his own judgment, and it should be a well-thought-out and strict and fair judgment. Yu Yao said this, carefully glanced at the look of King Yama, and saw that his face still did not change, and he couldn't see what he was thinking, so he said carefully, "Yu Yao speculated on His Highness's divine will, and asked His Highness not to blame the little girl." ”

"How can you tell that the king is studying the dossier repeatedly? And how do you know it's related to you? ”

"In His Highness's palace, it is difficult to see a single calligraphy and painting, and there is no shadow of the idle books, and what His Highness reads must be a dossier; And if that dossier is not related to me, why did His Royal Highness King Qin Guang personally bring Yu Yao here; I don't dare to hide it from His Royal Highness, at the door of the main hall, I also saw the black and white impermanence of the two adults, but somehow, there is always a sense of familiarity, although it is the first time to see these two, but as if they know Yu Yao, Yu Yao also knows that they are weird... Moreover, the incense burning in His Highness's palace actually emits different smells according to His Highness's changing mood, and when His Highness studied the dossier, the smell of this incense was particularly pungent, making people smell it soberly and abnormal, I think His Highness is probably thinking. ”

"Not bad." King Yama thought emotionlessly, "You really forgot the memories of your previous life? ”

"Yes."

"Then you can withstand the test of the book of life and death?"

"Forgetting is forgetting, no matter what I did in my previous life, Yu Yao admits it all, His Royal Highness wants to test me with the book of life and death, I am not afraid."

"Okay." Immediately, the king of Yama took off the jade jue-style object from his waist, and upon closer inspection, the jade jue was engraved with five characters, each of which was gold, wood, water, fire, and earth. King Yama turned his hand and covered the side of the jade engraved words in front of Yu Yao's forehead, and in an instant, the heavens and the earth were covered by dazzling white light, and the cold jade Jue in front of the forehead scalded Yu Yao's heart like a soldering iron, and the burning sensation hit Yu Yao again, only this time he could no longer use his hands to touch his chest to reduce the pain, Yu Yao felt as if her body was imprisoned by something, and she could not move a single inch from head to toe, and there seemed to be a gust of wind under her feet, which lifted her delicate body as a whole, because this white light was particularly dazzling, Yu Yao closed her eyes, But I didn't know that my skin had been covered with layers of starlight, shining abnormally, like a god.

King Yama never thought that the Book of Life and Death would change in Yu Yao's body, stirring up the chaos of heaven and earth, and he was really shocked, but he couldn't stop the riot of the Book of Life and Death, looking at the radiant Yu Yao, his thoughts unconsciously drifted back to a hundred years ago...

Yu Yao didn't know how long she had persevered under the test of the Book of Life and Death, but when her feet touched the ground, she only felt exhausted, as if the spirit of her body had been drained and she couldn't hold herself, so she lost her center of gravity and fell on top of the hall. When the jade jue shattered, there seemed to be a beam of light flying, and in front of Yu Yao's forehead, it bloomed into a little starlight, and then disappeared.

Yu Yao no longer knew the severity, and knew that if she destroyed the book of life and death, then her little life, no one could save it, so she fell to the ground, clasped her head repeatedly, and said: "Yu Yao is guilty of destroying this jade Jue, I am afraid that it will not be enough to repay it with Yu Yao's life, and I also ask the Fifth Highness to throw the little girl into the purgatory of the Ten Palaces, I am willing to never enter reincarnation, only to survive until my soul is scattered, so that His Highness can relieve his anger... Yu Yao really doesn't know what to do, please punish His Royal Highness! ”

The face of the king of Yama was finally embarrassed, panicked, and anxious, and his heart was even more mixed, and the book of life and death could not detect the results, but there was also a change, just this time, I am afraid that the person who has alarmed the heavenly realm, and now the book of life and death has also been smashed, if the heavenly realm sends someone down, there is not even a physical evidence, how can this be explained.

King Yama frowned, thought for a long time, and then said: "You get up first, this king will not detain you, nor will he re-include you in reincarnation, the fate that cannot be found in the book of life and death, forgive those people in the sky can't see why, this king will leave you in the empty city for the time being!" ”

Yu Yao got up in surprise, stared at the fifth prince, and repeated: "Empty, city? ”
