Concubine Jing smiled and hid a knife step by step, Xue Yi was nervous, the cloud sleeve dance was originally done by Madame Butterfly, Madame Butterfly captured the sacred heart with a cloud sleeve dance, and became the beloved of the lord of the Inviting Moon Country, integrating three thousand favors, but I don't know why this Lady Butterfly suddenly disappeared later, and it became an insoluble mystery of the Inviting Moon Country.

The so-called cloud sleeves are the sleeves of the jacket that are too long, and the dancers dance in the cloud sleeves, which is the dance that tests the dance skills. Xue Yi once watched the cloud sleeve dance of the snow dance in the attic, and the pink water sleeves danced together, and she couldn't tell whether it was a person or a fairy, and it was good-looking, so Xue Yi had never learned it. Now Concubine Jing is going to dance before Xue Yi's banquet, which is really embarrassing Xue Yi.

Xue Yi peeked at Xiao Yichen beside her, her eyes showed the intention of asking for help, but Xiao Yichen turned a blind eye, squinted at Xue Yi, and looked like she had nothing to do with herself.

Xue Yi secretly gritted her silver teeth, and had to kowtow upwards: "Since the mother concubine is not disgusted, the concubine has no choice but to sacrifice ugliness, and let the concubine go down to change clothes." ”

"Gonggong Li, Xiu'er, wait for Princess Yu to change her clothes, and carry Princess Yu on the way, be careful not to flash your waist and twist your feet, which will spoil the interest of the emperor and everyone." Concubine Jing stared at Xue Yi in a weird way.

Xue Yi complained bitterly in her heart, she had planned to take the opportunity to sprain her foot, but now it seems that it will not work, and today Concubine Jing is bound to see her own ugliness before giving up.

Xiao Yichen looked at Xue Yi's back and sneered in his heart, he didn't see Xue Yi's cry for help, but it seemed that he preferred to see Xue Yi's helpless and pitiful appearance. Before the banquet, the cups and cups touched and the sound of false praise for each other resumed, only Xiao Yichen hung his head absentmindedly, and the corner of his eyes swept towards the palace door from time to time.

A eunuch in charge hurriedly ran into the side hall, knelt in the corner of the hall and panted and said: "The emperor - the emperor is ——, big - the big thing is not good!" ”

The lord of the Inviting Moon Country Xiao frowned, and was secretly annoyed in his heart: What an ignorant minion, what is the big thing to be so flustered. Before the lord of Xiao Guo became angry, Concubine Jing couldn't hold her breath for a long time, locked her eyebrows tightly, and angrily reprimanded the eunuch: "Bold slave, don't look at what time it is, you dare to talk nonsense here, sweep the emperor's interest, left and right, don't drag it out to beat me!" ”

Concubine Jing shouted angrily, and a warrior from the corner of the palace had already come up and dragged the eunuch to leave.

Xiao Yichen shouted "slow". Everyone's eyes fell on Xiao Yichen's body, and the warrior in the corner of the palace dragged the eunuch to stand in place and look at the emperor and Concubine Jing.

"Could it be that the prince of Yu has any advice?" Concubine Jing raised her chin slightly, and glanced at Xiao Yichen contemptuously, very displeased.

Xiao Yichen kowtowed upward: "Father, queen and mother, and listen to what the son said, why don't you ask what happened to this minion, if he lies or is rude, it will not be too late to beat this minion." ”

Lord Xiao frowned and didn't speak, which was considered to have given Xiao Yichen a chance to speak.

Xiao Yichen got the acquiescence of his father, and turned to face the eunuch: "Bold minion, what happened, don't hurry up!" ”

The eunuch couldn't wipe the cold sweat on his forehead, and hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed upward: "Long live the lord, the lord of the Wind Dance Country heard about the wedding of the prince of Chongqing, and specially sent a messenger to send a congratulatory gift." ”

Lord Xiao looked at his son Xiao Yichen, and was slightly dissatisfied in his heart, he knew that Xiao Yichen had a very good personal relationship with the prince of the Wind Dance Country during the years he had been a proton in the Wind Dance Country, but the Wind Dance Country relied on the terrain and military strength, and never put the Inviting Moon Country in his eyes, and even ignored him, the Lord of the Inviting Moon Country, so for the envoy of the Wind Dance Country, the Lord Xiao had a lot of complaints in his heart, but it was inconvenient to say it clearly, and an evil fire was sent to the eunuch.

"You dog minion, you are so panicked about this little thing, pull it down and cut it!"

"Your Majesty, the slave's words are not finished yet, the congratulatory gift is not fake, but the congratulatory gift is terrifying!"

Lord Xiao and Concubine Jing glanced at each other, wondering in their hearts what kind of congratulatory gift had scared this eunuch into such a situation.

Xiao Yichen said in a deep voice: "What an ignorant minion, what is not the original Emperor Ming." ”

The eunuch in charge was already scared half to death by the envoy of the Wind Dance Country, and he experienced the beheading turmoil just now, and he was a little incoherent for a while, listening to Xiao Yichen ask like this, he wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, stabilized his mind, and told the whole story.

It turned out that the name of the envoy of the Wind Dance Country was to give a congratulatory gift, which was really a provocation. The congratulatory gift was not pearl agate silk or gold, silver and jade, but a pair of tall beasts with snow-white hair.

The envoy of the Wind Dance Kingdom is now taking out the palace gate, threatening that no one in the Inviting Moon Country can know what the name of the beast is and what its origin is, let alone surrender to this pair of beasts, the guards of the Inviting Moon Kingdom are naturally not convinced, and they high-five and bet with the messenger that if any of the guards can subdue the beast, the envoy will not only kneel and climb into the noon gate, but also offer 10,000 taels of gold; If the guards fail to subdue the beast and become a meal in the belly of the beast, the messenger will not be responsible.

Several guards entered the cage one after another, strange to say, the beast was a pair, but only one pounced on the guard, and the other squatted in place as if watching the excitement, the first guard went in and became the food of the beast in the blink of an eye, and then the second and third, to the corner of the eunuch's hall, the beast had already injured the lives of five guards.

The lord of the Inviting Moon Country groaned slightly, and the concubine Jing on the side muttered a few words in the ear of the Lord of the Xiao Kingdom, and the Lord of the Xiao Kingdom nodded and turned to Xiao Yichen: "Chen'er, you have been a hostage in the Wind Dance Country for fifteen years, and this congratulatory gift is a congratulatory gift from the Wind Dance Country to you, this messenger and the beast, the father and the emperor will give you full authority to deal with it, what do you think?" ”

Xiao Yichen humbly excused himself: "Father Emperor Mingjian, father and emperor love his son, he should have received the order, but the son is now a crippled body, I am afraid that he will not be able to deal with that beast." ”

"Lord Yu, what are you afraid of, the emperor just asked you to go and identify the name of the beast, and he didn't throw it into the cage to feed the beast." Concubine Jing's peach blossom eyes were full of anger, staring at Xiao Yichen and expressing dissatisfaction.

The emperor no longer gave Xiao Yichen a chance to shirk, and ordered the envoy of the Wind Dance Kingdom to enter the palace.

Not long after, the envoy of the Wind Dance Country entered the hall alone, and saw the lord of the Inviting Moon Country, the envoy did not bow down, but bent down slightly to see the salute, although the Lord of the Inviting Moon Country was dissatisfied, but his face was still calm.

"What is the matter with the envoy coming to me today to invite the Moon Country?" The emperor pretended to be puzzled and asked knowingly.

The envoy replied with pride: "I Fengwu country lord recently got a pair of treasures, dare not take it for himself, I heard that Xiao Yichen is the new king of Yu is newly married, our lord is grateful to raise Xiao Yichen for 15 years, and the special minister will give this treasure as a congratulatory gift to Xiao Guozhu and the second prince. ”

The envoy spoke disrespectfully, and the eyes of Lord Xiao and Xiao Yichen met in the air, and their faces were red and white for a while.

"Bring the treasure with you, the messenger of annoyance." Xiao Yichen ignored the envoy's rudeness, he wanted to see what kind of medicine Leng Fengyue and his father were selling in the gourd.

The appearance of the envoy of the Wind Dance Kingdom seemed to destroy the little father-son relationship that had just been established between the Lord of Xiao and Xiao Yichen, and Xiao Yichen was happy for his father, and immediately ordered the messenger to take the baby to the side hall.

As the eunuch shouted, eight strong men about two feet tall carried a boxy cage into the hall, because the black cloth covered the cage, and the people in the hall did not see what the beast looked like.

The envoy looked arrogant, glanced at Lord Xiao with disdain, and shouted: "Lift the curtain." A strong man uncovered the black cloth, revealing an iron cage surrounded by fine steel wires, and there was indeed a pair of beasts lying in the iron cage, only to see that the pair of beasts were covered in a ball of snow white, with long curly hair, and the beast's eyes were red and green, and they looked very good at a glance, and at this time the beast was lying quietly on the ground, and it did not look as fierce as the eunuch just said.

"Lord Xiao, what the lord of my family said clearly, as long as someone in the Yue Kingdom knows this beast and tells the origin of this beast, he will give this beast to this person, if one person can subdue this beast, see it," the messenger pointed to the middle of the cage, and everyone saw that there was a box in the middle of the cage that was shining, "The treasure and the jasper sword in this box will be paid to this person!" ”

The lord of the Inviting Moon Country and Xiao Yichen are both in one mind, and it is not surprising that any treasure is not surprising, but the jasper sword is the treasure of the Wind Dance Country, and it is a sword handed down from ancient times, and it has always been regarded as fate by the Wind Dance Country, Xiao Yichen knows that this jasper sword also has a role, that is, the Wind Dance Country determines the use of the prince, only the prince of the Wind Dance Country can be qualified to get this sword, and today it was actually taken out as a bet, could it be that something happened to Leng Fengyue? Xiao Yichen muttered secretly.

The envoy continued: "On the other hand, if no one in the Inviting Moon Country knows this beast and cannot subdue this beast, then the Wind Dance Country is bold, and it is necessary to invite the Moon Country to take my Wind Dance Country as a brother, worship it every year, and pay tribute at four o'clock!" ”

The envoy's voice landed on the ground, arousing the anger of the people in the palace, and everyone roared wildly.

"Bold Wind Dance Messenger, what are you, dare to go wild here!"

"Father, just pull this person down and chop him into pulp, and then shoot that pair of beasts to death with arrows!"

"Yes, yes, just cut this person into pieces!"

“......”

Everyone was in a mess, only Xiao Yichen and Xiao Yishuo never said a word, and in the face of everyone's noise, the envoy always looked calm, as if he didn't care about his life and death at all.

Lord Xiao waved his hand, signaling everyone to be quiet, the hall was quiet, and Lord Xiao faced Xiao Yichen: "Chen'er, how do you think this matter should be handled?" ”

Xiao Yichen was surprised at this time, he had been a hostage in the Wind Dance Country for fifteen years, and he had a close personal relationship with the crown prince Leng Fengyue, thinking that there were almost no treasures in the Wind Dance Country that he had never seen or heard of, and in the past fifteen years, he had traveled to every inch of the Wind Dance Country and made many talented people, but the pair of beautiful beasts in front of him had never seen or heard of them.

Seeing his father ask himself, Xiao Yichen pondered for a long time, and said truthfully: "Back to my father, my sons have never seen this beast, let alone heard of their origin. ”

The Lord of Xiao still wanted to speak, but Xiao Yishuo, the fourth prince who had been watching coldly, stood up and replied: "Father, no matter what they are called, they are just a pair of beasts after all, I want to invite people who are strong in the martial arts of the Moon Kingdom abound, why don't you call someone to come up and assassinate the beast, and see what the messenger says when the time comes!" ”

Hearing this, Lord Xiao Guo's eyes were dewy and nodded frequently.

Not much effort, more than a dozen mighty strong men were summoned into the hall, everyone heard that they were going to fight the fierce beasts in the cage, they all showed disdain, Xiao Yichen saw it in his eyes, and reminded him: "Although the strong men are mighty and invincible, but according to the king's view, this pair of beasts should not be underestimated, and the rank needs to be careful." ”
