Chapter 14 Running all the way is a mistake
The figure was wearing a wide cloak, unable to see its figure, and even its head was tightly wrapped in a black cloth. He went around and around, turning from one street to another, and from time to time he looked back to see if anyone was following him.
Ming Xue smiled bitterly in her heart, it's hard to make others not think you have a problem.
Finally the figure stopped in front of a quiet wooden door. Knocking on the door three times with a sense of rhythm, it sounded like three specific notes to a master of rhythm like Ming Xue.
Mingxue smiled again, this is a good password to use.
After a while, someone creaked the door open, and without saying much, the two of them tightened their trench coats, looked behind them to make sure that no one was following, and then cautiously entered the house.
It's so mysterious, isn't there some ulterior secret?
Mingxue was curious in her heart, and she couldn't care so much, and a spin fell lightly on the tall ancient tree above, the roots of the tree seemed to be connected to the house, and the crown of the tree grew on the roof just to help her cover.
After a long journey, she was also a little tired, leaning against a thick side branch, while listening to the conversation of the people in the house.
"Xuanyuan Zitong is back, there are still a few days left for the handover of the Holy Maiden, what should we do next?" The female voice sounded angry. Xuanyuan Zitong came back to Mingxue naturally knew best, she worked so hard to protect Dancheng, but some people in Dancheng didn't want her to come back, which was funny.
The other voice was a little old and much calmer, "Don't worry, there are still a few days before the election of the Holy Maiden, and it is still unknown who will kill the deer." You can rest assured, as long as I am here, I will not let the Great Elder's plan succeed, and we can unite with that ...... if necessary" Ming Xue seemed to be able to see the old man's slightly sinister smile.
"That one? You mean...... Saint? The other was visibly incredulous, and then added, "Holy Maiden, she can't see me first, why would she cooperate with us?" ”
The old man smiled mysteriously, "Why? Just rely on rights, the poison of rights, once it is contaminated, you can't quit! She should know better than anyone else that Zitong's ascension to the throne means that she is no longer a Danqiong Holy Maiden who is overturned, but just an elder under a condescending person, or even an elder is not ......"
"But......" the voice was still hesitant.
"Nothing, there are no eternal friends or enemies in this world, only eternal interests! We use her to remove the stumbling block of Xuanyuan Zitong, who else can compete with us in Danqiong in the future? The old man's grim tone sounded really unappetizing.
Ming Xue didn't plan to leave like this, Xuanyuan Zitong played herself like this in the morning, and she offended a powerful old man for no reason, and it didn't hurt to know a little about her.
"And Zixin's little slut, looking at the meaning of the saint, I have high hopes for her! As long as she doesn't abdicate, her rights are equal to that of the king, and I'm afraid we won't be able to cope with it! ”
"Hahaha~" The old man laughed insolently, "Xuanyuan Zixin is far worse than her sister, a yellow-haired girl who can only mess around all day, and Adou who can't be helped." I heard that I brought a man back to the palace a few days ago, which is really a shame for our Danqiong country! ”
Ming Xue remembered that the eldest lady's tempered Zixin, Xuanyuan Zitong's sister, is indeed a dou who can't be helped.
Later, they talked about how to win over the saint and how to get out of Xuanyuan Zitong, but they didn't get to the point, and Mingxue, who listened to it, really lost her patience, turned around and left, but who knew that this relaxation, the jade flute on her waist hit the trunk of the tree, and it made a sound. The people in the house were frightened and hurriedly ran out to check, but fortunately, Mingxue's speed was first-class, and these two rats who didn't even dare to speak out loud couldn't catch up.
As soon as the woman with the cloak appeared, it turned out to be the queen's mother, and she said angrily: "It has been heard, we must find out who she is, and kill her as soon as possible, if this thing spreads, neither of us can live!" ”
The one on the side must be her second elder who relied on Danqiong Kingdom. An old woman in her fifties, with a wrinkled face and a snarky look, lived like an old witch.
With a cruel smile on the corner of her mouth, she unhurriedly summoned a golden ant and placed it on the trunk of the tree where Mingxue had stayed, and the ant crawled a few times and climbed onto her body, and the two tentacles moved and moved, as if nodding.
The old witch smiled and whispered, "Go ahead, get rid of that man!" ”
The queen showed a happy look, and the golden ants have always been invincible. And the second elder in his hand is only the ant emperor, after her domestication, no matter what kind of smell can be traced, and it is highly toxic, as long as it is bitten, the immortal will be difficult to save.
Don't look at it small, but compared to the little gold of the Great Elder, it is too good, and it is usually very precious, and I am reluctant to take it out.
So it seems that the eavesdroppers are dead, and they have the courage to discuss their plans.
The queen smiled proudly, and looked at the second elder with some gratitude, all these years are really thanks to this faithful companion.
"This palace will remember your great kindness and great virtue, and when Zimo becomes a saint, she will definitely not treat you badly, and the position of Great Elder must be reserved for you." She patted the old woman's emaciated body, which seemed to fall apart if she moved.
The old woman raised her head and grinned, but her smile was strange and cold, "The old man has thanked the queen first!" "A conspiracy ended in a hurry because of an outsider's intrusion.
Xuanyuan Zitong had no idea that a conspiracy against herself had quietly unfolded, she was still happily configuring the antidote, and there was still one last step before she could take this snake venom antidote prepared with fire lingzhi to meet her sweetheart who fell in love at first sight.
The sun was in the west, and the afterglow of the red sun was only mottled when it fell to the ground through the blocking of thousands of leaves. Xuanyuan Zitong seemed to be in a good mood, regardless of the maid Ling'er's obstruction, she went all the way to the Yilan Palace, she knew that there was a little turmoil, and Zhong Mohui had been taken to the Yilan Hall for cultivation. It's okay like this, lonely men and widows live together, and Zixin's reputation is not good, and she also feels that she will eat a little jealousy. Thinking of that man, she generously admitted that she would also be jealous, and this surprised discovery made her blush again.
Her steps were so fast that Ling'er couldn't catch up with her trotting, no, she would have arrived at the door of the Yilan Hall in a while. She cautiously lifted her skirt and walked in, wanting to scream, but she found that she didn't even know the other party's name. For a while, I felt quite disappointed and a little shy, and I didn't know what to do.
Yilan Hall is different from other palaces, it is a standard heavy eaves rest on the top of the mountain, it is really made in accordance with the shape of the Liufeng country, one of the only two Liufeng buildings in the Danqiong Royal Court, it is generally arranged for the residence of the envoys of the state, the holy woman actually arranged it to Zhong Mohui to live, it seems that Zhong Mohui's status in her eyes is not low.
Xuanyuan Zitong hesitated and knocked on the door, but did not respond.
The excitement and hesitation suddenly turned into a color of disappointment, wasn't it there?
However, the person she was thinking about was not absent, but watching the sunset with her beloved sister.
It was true that as soon as she looked up, she saw the two figures, one sitting on the left and one on the right, on the only towering ancient tree in the Yilan Palace. The two of them looked at the sunset side by side, Xuanyuan Zixin leaned on Zhong Mohui's shoulder, looking ahead with a happy face, while Zhong Mohui looked at Xuanyuan Zixin dotingly, as if he was looking at a treasure.
At that moment, that picture stung Zitong's eyes, she never knew that she had left for a few days, but the person she liked got along with her sister, and she was born and died outside for him, and he, unexpectedly, did this to her.
If she could, she hoped that she had never entered the Yilan Hall today, and she had never seen this picture. No wonder Ling'er always refuses to tell her about something, looking at her eyes full of pity, no wonder she is so clingy to her sister for so long and has not come to her. Okay, very good, they all treat her as a fool, it's good, the person you love and your sister still lure the wolf into the room by yourself. She's the biggest fool in the world.
When Ling'er entered the Yilan Palace, what she saw was the so wooden and decadent Xuanyuan Zitong, who was originally so strong, and the master who refused to admit defeat saw that the person he was thinking about was actually with his sister, and Ling'er knew how big a blow it was to Xuanyuan Zitong at that moment.
"Princess!" She walked over with a slow pace and called out in distress.
This sound finally alarmed the two people with a strong affection on their heads, Xuanyuan Zixin was stunned when she saw Zitong, the panic in her eyes was clearly visible, she was completely afraid the moment she saw Zitong.
She had never seen such a depressed sister. She pushed Zhong Mohui away and jumped down.
"Sister...... You're back......" She was finally not that delicate and cute, but flustered, and even her usually powerful tongue was knotted at once, and she was generally speechless. It took a long time to hold back such words.
"Yes, I'm back, aren't you happy?" Every word was bitten very hard, and it could be seen that Xuanyuan Zitong was very angry, and more heartache. She didn't understand that her well-behaved sister would do such a thing.
"Xin'er, why is this?" Zhong Mohui followed closely, and seeing this awkward atmosphere, he stepped forward elegantly to break the silence.
Hehe, he asked me who I was. Xuanyuan Zitong only felt so ridiculous, she was the first person he should have known, she carried him back step by step from the dense forest, but right now, he was asking another person, who was she!
What a joke. I, Xuanyuan Zitong, really let the eagle peck at the eyes, and I would be good to the two of you wholeheartedly.
