Chapter 14: Outwitting the Beast
Xiao Yichen had good intentions, but Xiao Yishuo was very dissatisfied, he glanced at Xiao Yichen: "Second Emperor Brother, it's not that the younger brother is rude, it's really the royal brother who has worn out all his courage over the years as a proton, what is there to fear about a pair of beasts?" Could it be that I have lost to a pair of brutes? ET”
Xiao Yichen didn't say anything more and nodded.
One of the warriors took a bold stride into the cage, only to see that the beast, which was as gentle as a cat just now, suddenly stood up, and his eyes glowed with two lights, and the alternation of red and blue was terrifying. Only then did everyone see the appearance of the beasts. The beast was a man's height, its white fur dragging on the ground, its four legs like four pillars, staring at the caged warrior ready to attack.
The samurai clenched the hilt of his sword with both hands, his eyes stared at the beast tightly, and everyone couldn't help but hold their breath, their eyes fell on the beast and the samurai, and the hall was quiet only with the sound of short breaths.
Suddenly, the beast pounced on the samurai like an arrow from the string, the samurai had already prepared, a squatting step, dodging a pounce and a cut, but the beast seemed to be bulky, but in fact it was flexible, just a blink of an eye, turned around and pounced on the samurai again, seeing that he couldn't dodge, the samurai swung his knife and slashed at the beast, the samurai thought that this knife would go down, even if he didn't want the life of the beast, he could seriously injure the beast, who would have thought that the beast had a pair of iron-like fur, invulnerable, a knife did not hurt the beast, the samurai was flustered, and the tricks were messy and hasty, The beast opened its bloody jaws and bit the samurai's head.
The crowd closed their eyes tightly.
The envoy of the Wind Dance Country is called to congratulate the prince of Yu on the wedding of Xiao Yichen, and sends a pair of fierce beasts, but in fact, it is a provocation and ignorance of the Invite Yue Kingdom.
Xiao Yishuo, the fourth prince, wanted to curry favor in front of his father, and ordered the most powerful warriors under his command to fight with the beast, but who knows, in an instant, the five warriors have become the belly of the beast!
Blood flowed all over the hall, and only the sound of a "bang" heartbeat could be heard in the silence.
The envoy of the Wind Dance Country suddenly raised his head and laughed wildly: "Hahaha-Lord Xiao, I want to invite the Yue Kingdom to always be able to fight well, it won't be so vulnerable, so please ask the Lord of the Xiao Kingdom to send capable people to fight beasts, don't send these incompetent people to take their lives in vain." ”
The envoy of the Wind Dance Country can be described as extremely arrogant, and then look at the face of the Lord of the Xiao Kingdom, a burst of red, a burst of white, a burst of blue, a burst of purple, as if a color shop was opened, the Lord of the Xiao Kingdom suppressed the anger in his heart, and looked at the Concubine Jing beside him, Concubine Jing was resourceful in dealing with harem women in the past, but at this time, it was also a monkey eating chili peppers - numb claws. Seeing Concubine Jing shaking his head, the Lord of the Xiao Kingdom secretly gritted his teeth and issued an order: "Listen clearly, the princes, whoever subdues this pair of beasts today will be the future lord of the Moon Country I invited!" ”
As soon as the lord of Xiao Guo Chrysostom came out, the princes except Xiao Yichen were all moved, especially the fourth prince Xiao Yishuo, he has coveted the throne for a long time, in order to win the happiness and love of his father, he endured his admiration for Miss Lan, his preference for gold, silver and jewelry, and pretended to be thrifty and polite every day, and now that the opportunity has come, how could he let the crown prince slip away from his eyes.
Xiao Yishuo was about to receive the order, but suddenly saw Concubine Jing's hand shaking at him three times in her sleeve, and her head swinging three times, Xiao Yishuo suppressed the desire in his heart.
The main hall was still quiet and could hear each other's breathing, Xiao Guozhu was angry in his heart, and was about to get angry, when a light voice came from the corner of the hall: "Erchen see father and mother and concubine." ”
The voice fell in the ears of the people in the hall at this time, such as the peerless sound, the straw that saved lives, everyone followed the sound to look, only to see the princess of Yu who had just gone down to the palace to change her dance clothes kneeling in the corner of the hall, a green dance dress is very good-looking, how can everyone be upset about the pair of fierce beasts at this time, no one has the heart to appreciate the beauty.
Seeing that Xue Yi was disappointed for a while, Xiao Guo waved his hand: "Princess Yu is exempt from courtesy, sit down on the side." ”
"Thank you, Father." Xue Yi lowered her head and walked up to the hall, her eyes glanced at the fierce beasts in the cage and the blood stains all over the ground, and couldn't help but exclaim: "Where did the wind dance snow lion come from, it actually hurt people's lives here!" ”
When everyone heard this, their spirits were shocked, and the lord of Xiao was even more stunned, he looked at Xue Yi, and his voice was half incredulous: "Princess Yu, listening to what you just said, you must know the origin of this beast, this pair of beasts is a big wedding gift from the Wind Dance Kingdom to Chen'er and you, you can tell me in detail about the origin of this pair of beasts." ”
Xue Yi nodded, in the Prime Minister's Mansion, she was confined to the attic all day long, and when she had nothing to do, she was friends with books, and she read a lot of anecdotes and legends in addition to reading history books, and one of the classics recorded the origin of this pair of fierce beasts.
Xue Yi knelt down on Danxi unhurriedly: "Back to my father, this is a pair of wind dancing snow lions, this snow lion is covered with pure white fur, hence the name, wind dancing snow lion one eye red and one eye green, according to the book, red eyes glow, snow lion temperament docile, green eyes glow, snow lion warning, only two eyes shine at the same time is a sign of hurt." This snow lion is supposed to live on the top of the snow-capped mountains of the Wind Dance, and they like extremely cold weather. ”
Xue Yi's words made everyone present admire, Xiao Yichen's eyes were fixed on Xue Yi's body, and there was a little more playfulness in his eyes. The envoy of the Wind Dance Country couldn't help but glance at Xue Yi more, and was secretly surprised in his heart, this beautiful woman in front of him, who seemed to be soft and boneless, had such insight.
The envoy groaned slightly, and clasped his hands into fists: "Princess Yu is high, since she knows the origin of the snow lion, she must have a way to subdue the snow lion." ”
Everyone's eyes fell on Xue Yi, who smiled slightly and bowed her head slightly. Xiao Yichen was nervous for a while, he saw with his own eyes the bravery of the pair of snow lions, the eight warriors didn't even have a chance to breathe before they became a meal in the belly of the snow lion, this Miss Lan had no power to restrain the chicken, what ability did she dare to fight the snow lion!
Xiao Yichen wanted to stop it, but raised his hand and put it down, opened his mouth and closed it again, Xue Yi had already walked to the cage at this time.
Xue Yi looked at the pair of snow lions intently, her heart was pounding, she had only read how to subdue the snow lions in books, and she was really not sure in her heart, but there was no way back from the matter.
Xue Yi waved her hand at the eunuchs and palace maids on both sides, the eunuchs and palace maids trembled like chaff, they paced to Xue Yi, I don't know what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd of the princess of Chongqing, Xue Yi attached to a palace maid and commanded a few words, the palace maid looked at Xue Yi suspiciously, Xue Yi smiled and nodded, signaling the palace maid to do so.
The palace maid led the five eunuchs and five palace maids to the palace, Xue Yi danced lightly, a piece of green stretched out in the cage, the snow lion slowly opened his eyes, sure enough, it was different from just now, only one eye flashed a faint flush, Xue Yi had a bottom in his heart, at this moment, the palace maids and eunuchs who had just gone down to the palace came with a tile basin full of ice cubes, Xue Yi motioned for everyone to pour the ice cubes on the ground, and then signaled to open the door of the cage.
"Princess Yu, you-don't you want to murder the emperor?" When Concubine Jing saw that Xue Yi was about to release the snow lion, she was shocked, stammering and frightened, and Lord Xiao frowned.
Xue Yi knelt on the ground: "Please rest assured, the princess, the sons have their own way to subdue the snow lion." ”
The cage lock fell to the ground, Xue Yi took off her embroidered shoes, a pair of white and tender little feet stepped on the ice, the water sleeves were lightly raised, the slender waist was twisted slowly, and the arms were slowly swinging, the snow lion actually followed Xue Yi's long sleeves out of the iron cage and walked towards Xue Yi, and the eyes of everyone in the hall stared at Xue Yi and the snow lion without blinking.
