Chapter 269
Zhaoguo, Zhongtiantai.
The terrifying coercion has been haunting the sky above the middle roof, and even the clouds on the horizon are dyed with the color of flames.
It wasn't until the next morning that this breathless feeling of oppression slowly dissipated.
"Congratulations." Yin Ji smiled and said, "I carried it again." ”
Jiu Zhi leaned on the head of the bed, his face was pale, but his eyes were full of light: "Thank you too, if you hadn't been guarding, I was afraid that the entire royal capital would be pulled into a dream under my control." ”
Devouring those twenty-nine clans was harmful to her after all.
Especially after leaving Jingzhou, every few days, there will be a period of loss of control when the demon instinct counterattacks human consciousness.
Because she's weak enough.
But the more this is the case, the more Jiuzhi can't stay in Jingzhou first, otherwise, if it doesn't break out normally, and a big one comes at a critical time, will it be possible to use the "Cangwu Dream" on Yin Ji again?
It just so happened that Yin Ji was also going back to Lulong City.
She is just fifteen this year, but she didn't do the ceremony at all, the reason is very simple - there is no woman in Zhaoguo who is more noble than her to insert a flute for her.
So around the autumn equinox, Yin Ji simply did not return to Yongzhou.
Everything in Shoucheng was handled by Xun carefully, and she didn't interfere, but just took Jiuzhi and walked around the radius for thousands of miles.
Probably because Jingzhou has nine peaks, there are no demons and ghosts in the mountains and rivers.
But in the core of some mountains and rivers, there are still Neidan condensing, and they are naturally taken away one by one.
But she wandered outside until mid-September, and she had to go back, because the remnants of the city of Zhuguo had all been captured, and King Zhu was captured by Wang Gan with the queen, the crown prince, Chunhuajun, etc.
The engineering team of the dependents, under the leadership of Fan and Wei, used the fastest speed to build a main road for the army to triumph.
Calculating the time, the vanguard of the army can just return to the royal capital at the end of September to catch Yin Changying's twenty-fourth birthday.
Zhaoguo takes twelve as the holy number, twenty-four years old, of course, it is a big birthday, and it happens to coincide with the destruction of Zhu Guo, happy and happy, Yin Ji does not go back, it is a bit too much to say.
But how to say it, seeing that Lulong City was jubilant and full of lights, Yin Ji had an inexplicable feeling in her heart.
Thinking that there would be a prisoner sacrifice ceremony next, Yin Ji was even less interested.
She has seen the tragic situation of Shoucheng and understands that the collapse of a country is undoubtedly a disaster for many people, plus she is not really a native of this world, even if she has a sense of belonging, it is not so strong, and naturally she is not like the local people of Zhaoguo, proud, proud, and in a carnival.
Therefore, in the name of "helping Jiuzhi stabilize his physical condition", Yin Ji avoided Zhongtiantai.
"You've not been in a good mood lately."
Jiuzhi grabbed the pickled plums on the table, ate a few with the core, and then asked as if chattering, "What's wrong?" ”
Yin Ji shook her head and didn't speak.
"Let me guess what it has to do with it." Jiuzhi said "guess" in his mouth, but his attitude was very determined, "What did you see that made you unhappy?" ”
Yin Ji still didn't speak.
"You don't take the initiative to contact the outside world, and you don't have any confidants, and the two people around you, the one named Abu, never have much to do. surnamed Biao, who was sent to take care of the orphans of the Chu brothers. ”
Jiuzhi narrowed his eyes: "What happened?" ”
Yin Ji sighed: "If Princess Huayi follows us, the Chu brothers will have no one to take care of them. The Empress Dowager Shouyang is very happy, but I don't think this will work. ”
Although Princess Huayi's political talent is not high enough, she has a good character, and when she went to Shoucheng before, she specially asked Biao Wanzi to take care of the Chu brothers.
Although he was pulling the tiger skin to make a big banner, Zheng Gao nodded, which shows that this matter is nothing.
But no matter what Biao Wanzi says, he is only a courtier, a female official, and has nothing to do with the Chu brothers, so it is impossible to raise the two brothers for several years.
The best way, of course, is to hand over the brothers to the Empress Dowager Shouyang.
But the Empress Dowager Shouyang will do anything for the sake of profit, and these two brothers will only become her pawns in her hands.
Jiu Wei sneered: "Chu Qi and Chu Huan's brothers didn't grow up in the palace and were raised by their aunt Crown Princess? How much did that woman care about them? Isn't it still safe and sound? ”
She has Chu Qi's memory, so she naturally knows what kind of life the two brothers are living in the palace.
High bed and soft pillows, worry-free food and clothing, high-ranking officials, everything that should be on the surface, it can even be said that they are better than the sons of Zhaoguo.
can see that these two brothers are dependent on each other in the end and are willing to sacrifice for each other, you can know how trembling they were and walking on thin ice.
Yin Ji shook her head: "After the death of the mourning prince, the crown princess is like a rootless duckweed, and she doesn't want to offend anyone at all. Even if he didn't help this nephew, he didn't hurt them, and the Empress Dowager Shouyang ......"
Before she could finish speaking, the door opened.
Abu walked over in three steps and two steps, and whispered, "Lord Guowu, there is something that Lord Zheng Lingnu will tell you. ”
"What?"
"King Houde, let King Liang and King Zhu go to the New Year's banquet as in-laws. But there is humanity, the prince and the little prince of Zhuguo, the blood is not pure, and the palace of Zhaoguo must not be polluted. ”
Jiuzhi showed a playful look.
Yin Cheng sighed: "I know. ”
Abu was so clever that he immediately went to prepare clothes for Yin Ji.
Jiu Zhi's fingertips tapped the case, and he seemed to be smiling: "Interesting, who is behind this?" ”
"It doesn't matter who pushes it." Yin Ji said lightly, "The ownership of the Chu brothers cannot fall into the hands of King Zhu. ”
Zhu Wang and his wife ruined the lives of Chu Qi and Chu Xuan, Chu Qi's son already hated his father, and if he was instigated by King Zhu, he would probably be crooked.
Yin Ji knew that Yin Changying definitely didn't mind this, and he didn't care about the life or death of the Six Kings Clan at all.
In fact, Yin Ji is not a person who does so much.
One is that the Chu brothers themselves have nothing to do with her;
The second reason is that, as Jiu Wei said, Chu Qi and Chu Xuan are in a more difficult situation, and they have both walked down step by step, and the Chu brothers have no reason to complain.
But Yin Ji and Chu Qi had an agreement.
Even if she knows, even if she fulfills her promise, there is only a thirty percent chance of getting a return, but what she promises, she must do it.
"I'll take a look at it with you, too!" Jiuzhi raised his interest, "In the eyes of outsiders, I am the patron saint of the Jingzhou continent and the totem of Zhuguo." ”
Whether the prince of Zhuguo is the blood of King Zhu is a matter of Jiuzhi's words.
She said it was true, even if it was fake, it was true.
She said it was fake, and even if it was true, it became fake.
Yin Ji always felt that Jiu Zhi wanted to make trouble, but saw Jiu Zhi touch his chin: "By the way, aren't you curious, why did Zheng Gao send Abu to inform you?" ”
Zheng Gao is the spokesperson of Yin Changying, and he dares to do this, of course, he has figured out the meaning of Yin Changying.
But why did Yin Changying care about the internal strife of the royal family? Do you want to inform Yin Hui?
