Chapter 2 The Trial of the Imperial Family

The surname of the country in Xiqi in the past dynasties is Hua, and the capital is Jincheng, which is vast and rich in resources, and the construction area of the Hua's imperial palace is huge, which can be called the city in the city of Jincheng.

The palace buildings are built according to the height of the mountain, five steps to the first floor, ten steps to a pavilion, between the attic there are wide and winding corridors or erection of wooden passages to link. The large buildings are tall and sturdy, very majestic, and the small buildings are light and delicate, and they are extremely beautiful.

In the courtyard between large and small buildings, small bridges and bridges, lakes and flowing water, fragrant grass everywhere, and green forests.

Located at the north end of the palace, there is a bone-eating flower mountain covered by the bone-eating demon flower all year round, which is a holy place for the descendants of the royal family to cultivate.

This year, the bone-eating flowers are in particularly lush bloom, and the royal family held a bone-eating flower mountain trial for this purpose, stipulating that the descendants of the royal family and the descendants of the clan must participate in it for those over 12 years old and under the age of 18.

In the long pavilion under the bone-eating flower mountain today, there are Xiqi Emperor Hua Wuji, the queen, the concubines, the emperor's relatives and the important ministers of the dynasty.

"This bone-eating flower mountain trial must be King Ning winning the championship." Concubine Yao sat closest to the queen, and she whispered to the queen in a slow voice, "Although King Ning is only fifteen this year, he is more outstanding than several brothers in martial arts, so it is no wonder that the emperor is so important." ”

The queen raised her eyes to see the bone-eating flower mountain with crazy vines and said slowly: "As long as you return safely, it is said that this year's bone-eating flower is extremely ferocious, and the largest one can devour a child of several years old in one bite." ”

As soon as Concubine Yun heard this, she immediately turned her head and said to Concubine Ru next to her with a complaint: "My Lan Yue was injured in her legs and feet some time ago, and today she insisted on going to the Bone Eating Flower Mountain to participate in the trial, so she didn't listen to it. ”

The corners of Concubine Ru's mouth curled into a smile and said, "Don't worry, isn't there a flower leaving the mirror, even if your family Lanyue only uses one leg and one hand, she will not be at the bottom." ”

"It's because of her that my family Lan Yue is more dangerous!" As soon as Concubine Yun heard Hua Lijing's name, her tone was obviously much higher, and if she listened carefully, she would find that there was a little anger mixed in it.

Everyone in the palace knows that Hua Lihuang is the nemesis of Hua Lijing, and Hua Lijing is Hua Lanyue's nemesis. From childhood to adulthood, how much Hua Lijing has suffered for Hua Lijing, Hua Lanyue has suffered for Hua Lijing.

When Concubine Ru heard this, her smile couldn't help but deepen, and while stroking the black cat in her arms, she said:

"Listen to Ah Fu, your Lan Yue's foot seems to have been injured for that girl a few days ago, King Yue is really infatuated, since he was a child, he can block a lot of injuries for that girl, and those who don't know think that girl is Concubine Yun's little daughter-in-law."

"Concubine Ru!" Concubine Yun stood up angrily and pointed to Concubine Ru beside her and said, "Don't talk nonsense! "It's about her son's reputation, and she can't let others talk about it.

Brother and sister chaos and Lun are big sins in Xiqi!

"Okay, Sister Yun, don't be angry, my sister is just joking with you, brother and sister love, they are brother and sister love" Seeing that Concubine Yun was angry, Concubine Ru hurriedly smiled and apologized, saying that it was an apology, but the expression on her face was not half apologetic.

Concubine Yun looked at the chair that Concubine Ru had moved with a smile on her face, and she didn't know whether to sit down or not. In this court, which concubine does not want to be higher than other concubines, but there is usually only one way to get a higher position, which is to step on someone else's position and climb up.

Therefore, in this palace compound, you must live with bated breath, otherwise a person who accidentally leaves the handle in the hands of others will have unimaginable consequences.

The queen looked at the two concubines beside her, and a hint of mockery flowed in her eyes, but she did not show the slightest hint in front of people, and said slowly and indifferently:

"Concubine Yun doesn't have to be so angry, Concubine Ru didn't mean to, sit down and watch the game. However, you also have to persuade your family Yue Wang, don't get too close to my family Jing'er, too close will make Huang'er unhappy. ”

The queen's remarks made Concubine Yun have to sit down and continue to watch the game.

Hua Lihuang and Hua Lijing are brothers and sisters, both born to today's queen, the dragon and phoenix both descend, the national highway is prosperous, and the dragon and phoenix are defeated because of the dragon and phoenix. This is the great wizard of the Dongyue country, a neighbor and friend of the Xiqi country.

It is also because of the double descent of the dragon and the phoenix that the current queen is righted by the concubines.

Hua Lihuang is not only talented and intelligent, but also has a strong spiritual power, is the most outstanding son of the Xiqi Emperor, was named King Ning at the age of nine, and is also the emperor's heart Xiqi is the best choice for the next emperor.

As for Hua Lijing, it is just the opposite of his brother, and he is completely a spiritual waste.

In this year's Bone-Eating Flower Mountain Trial, there are thirteen children who participate, and there are only twelve clearance tokens, which means that one person will be eliminated. Because of the participation of Hua Lijing, it seems to be clear who will be eliminated.

At this time, on the bone-eating flower mountain, there were several figures climbing on top of a mess of flower vines, some of them were high, some of them were lower, but the goal was to climb over the web-like vines and reach the road that led to the top of the mountain.

"Fourth Emperor Brother, shall we pull her?" The sixth prince Zhaoxiang asked the fourth brother beside him.

"King Ning's twin brother is watching coldly, what are you anxious about?"

"If she slides down again, she will fall into the sea of bone-eating flowers, and she may die."

As he was talking, a vine bone-eating flower suddenly fell, opening its mouth to cover his head, the four princes raised the dagger and quickly stabbed it, and with a click, the bone-eating flower was nailed to the thick vine, flowing out of a green viscous liquid.

"Take care of yourself, don't forget, those who can't pass the trial will be sent to the lower courtyard, and you want to enter the lower courtyard?"

Zhao Xiang looked at the bone-eating flower with a frightened expression, and he didn't care about looking at the flower that was sliding down and continued to climb up.

The bone-eating flower is very animalistic, it can attack people like animals, although it cannot kill people at once, but the serous fluid secreted can paralyze people and lose consciousness, and then become its food.

"Mirror!" Hua Lanyue, who was originally crawling in front, climbed down again, "Hold on, I'll go down to pick you up!" ”

The flower didn't move from the mirror, Lan Yue was far away from her, and she couldn't see that her injured arm was covered with green slurry, and now this hand was a little numb, and she had to wrap her arm with rattan to prevent herself from falling into the whole group of bone-eating flowers.

She was scared, the flowers were so large that they could almost swallow most of her body.

Raise your eyes to see the twin brother who climbed at the front of the crowd.

Hua Lihuang is located at the highest level of the mountain, wearing a blue robe, the posture is suspended in the air, such as the ink long hair with a hollow carved gold crown high bundle, the hair bundle hangs behind him, as if hanging silk fluttering in the wind.

As if sensing the overly eager anticipation of Hua Lijing, he looked back impatiently. At first glance, his cold eyes seem to be ordinary black, and if you look closely, you can see the strange purple in his pupils.

Looking at his humble sister at the bottom, he turned his gaze back indifferently and continued to walk up the mountain.

Why should useless people remain in the world?

"Princess Lijing's eyes are trying to call your royal brother to help?" Zuo Zhishan, the daughter of the prime minister, who climbed up from behind, looked relaxed, "It seems that he can't take care of you." She smiled and said, "Princess, let me give you a hand." ”

Hua Lijing was a little unable to support it, and when he looked back at the huge bone-eating flowers that were waiting with their mouths open upwards because of the flesh and blood passing through, he couldn't help but feel creepy.

Looking at Zuo Zhishan, who was holding vines with one hand and smiling at her with the other, although she usually didn't have much contact with Miss Prime Minister, she heard that she had both talent and virtue, so she should be able to be trusted.

She whispered "thank you" and held out her hand.

Zuo Zhishan held her hand and pulled it up: "Princess, you have to catch it." ”

Hua Lijing was grateful, and very few people took the initiative to help her, except for Bai He and Qinglan. Only then did he let go of the hand wrapped around the rattan and climbed up with his strength, and heard Zuo Zhishan exclaim:

"Oops!" Then the whole thing slid down and hit the top of her head, and the hand that was holding her suddenly let go, Hua Lijing hurriedly wanted to grab the tree vine, but Zuo Zhishan stepped on her hand with her legs.

"Princess, be careful!"

Hua Lijing only caught the leaves, and the leaves tore open with a hiss, and she instantly fell down with gravitational acceleration.

"Mirror!" Hua Lanyue, who climbed down, reached out to grab her, but heard a "poof" sound.

The flower left the mirror and fell into the sea of bone-eating flowers.

The violent collision shattered several huge flowers, and she had a bewitching beauty in the ten thousand flowers, but as the bone-eating flower kept approaching, like a prey about to be snatched up, it was terrifying.

"Mirror!" Hua Lanyue hurriedly rushed towards the place where Hua Lijing was.

Because of the needs of the trial, King Yue was wearing a narrow-sleeved riding suit today, his hair was tied into a regular bun, and he put on a refined white jade hair crown, his movements were extremely light and fast, but no matter how fast he was, he couldn't stop Hua Lijing from falling into the sea of bone-eating flowers, and his handsome face was full of worry and self-blame at the moment.

"King Yue!" At this time, the secret guard who had been following Hua Lanyue incognito, stopped him, "Concubine Yun has an order, and you must not be in the slightest danger." ”

"Get out of the way!" Hua Lanyue didn't want to listen to the guards at all, he just wanted to hurry up and save Hua Lijing. He had always known about the secret attendants sent by his mother to protect him, but he didn't expect that he would interfere with his freedom of movement.

"Lord Wang, you can't save the princess if you go now, below are the demon flowers that have devoured countless human bones, and there are thousands of them, before you arrive there, the princess is afraid that there are only bones left, and if you rush like this, you will be put in danger."

"What I want is for you to get out of the way! Not a bunch of nonsense explanations for you! ”

Hua Lanyue turned around as she spoke, the cold light flashed, and the sword was unsheathed.

Hua Lijing is his sister, and it is impossible for him to die without saving him. And he couldn't stand Jing'er dying in front of him like that, he had a very bad premonition, feeling that if he didn't go down to save her now, maybe he wouldn't see her again in his life!

"I'll ask you one last time, to let or not to let you?" Hua Lanyue pointed the sword in her hand at her guard.

Although he has been frail and sickly since he was a child, his kung fu is not as good as others, and he looks like a weak scholar in the eyes of others, as long as it is for the sake of flowers, he will never back down.

At this time, the flower has fallen into the flower sac, those thorns immediately slowly contracted, she held the petals tightly, the bone-eating flower petals were extremely hard, and the capsule tube in the center of the flower was full of thorns, she could feel the pain of her body being pierced by it, and also felt that because of her blood, the commotion of those petals overflowing, she couldn't wait to enjoy the food.

looked at Hua Lanyue, who was arguing with the attendant at the moment, but she didn't open her mouth to ask him for help.

There is no one in this world who can be trusted.

"Jing'er, I'll come down and save you right away!" As if seeing through the idea of leaving the mirror, Hua Lanyue said hurriedly.

The secret guard who had been standing beside Hua Lanyue from beginning to end raised his sword when he heard this: "Lord Wang, forgive your subordinates for being unreasonable, but if you have three long and two short, Niangniang will not spare your subordinates." ”

"Presumptuous!"

The sword in Hua Lanyue's hand stabbed at him mercilessly.

If he could, Hua Lanyue couldn't wait to jump down directly, but the rattan net was far away from the sea of bone-eating flowers, and this sea of flowers grew extremely weird, high and low seemed to emerge from the bottom of the abyss, and the layers were full of bone-eating flowers, if he rushed straight ahead, not only might he not find the mirror, but he would fall to the bottom, and there were guards beside him who were hindering his movements.

What to do?

The lower body was constantly devoured by the flower away from the mirror like dead ashes, and looked at the flower from the wilderness who was still crawling at the front of the crowd again, why, the emperor refused to look back at her? Even if you don't save her, can't you even look at her?

The huge shadow shrouded down, and another bone-eating flower lowered its head to grab food, but raised its hand to block it with a scream from the mirror, and its body fell into the flower sac that was swallowing her, and the bone-eating flower slowly closed its mouth.
