Chapter Ninety-Eight: Imitation
A restaurant in Xijing is empty today, without the bustle of people coming and going in the past.
The shopkeeper was not here today, and he rested early, and even the cook was replaced and went home with his wife and children.
When Shan Shulin walked into this restaurant, he saw such a scene.
Stepping up the stairs, there is a maid waiting for you every two steps. They all have thin cocoons in their hands, and they are all practitioners. Looking at Xijing, the only person who has the ability to do this is the Mei family.
Walking to the second floor, the guards who came and went were wearing long knives and gold armor, with solemn expressions, staring ahead, without looking at Shan Shulin. They are well-trained and come from a military background.
Beside such a bloody man, he could feel the oppression, but his expression remained unchanged, pacing, pushing open the door that was most heavily guarded.
The queen sat on a cork wooden chair.
She didn't wear the phoenix crown she often wore, her hair was simply coiled up with a hosta, her eyebrows were swept, her temples were slightly red, if she didn't know that she was the mother of a country, she could really see the little daughter on her face.
Shan Shulin sneered in his heart, and his face was respectful: "Queen Mother." ”
Bending his knees, without waiting for the queen to speak, Shan Shulin has already stood upright.
The queen didn't dwell on the matter. She covered her lips and smiled: "It's really not easy to see Shan Gongzi." ”
Shan Shulin also smiled: "But the queen's mother's decree, can the minister still resist?" ”
The queen smiled, raised her hand to hold everyone back, and ordered the attendants to guard outside: "What? Are you here today? ”
"The queen is better to be concise." Shan Shulin reminded her, "The emperor is afraid that you are outside the palace now. ”
The queen was disdainful and laughed: "What if you know? Could it be that he has the ability to arrest me and bring me back to the palace? ”
Even if the emperor knew, he could only turn a blind eye. After all, the queen's mother's family, the emperor can't be provoked. The Mei family, who is in charge of Jiang Guo's military power, is a behemoth.
Shan Shulin smiled and said nothing.
The queen raised the lamp and saluted Shan Shu: "Why don't you have a drink with the palace?" ”
Shan Shulin's eyes moved down, and when he saw her pink nails, and saw the queen's unfatted appearance, he realized something. He pushed away the wine cup handed by the queen and sneered: "The queen's idea is a good fight." ”
The queen smiled, raised her head and poured the wine in the wine glass into her mouth: "Shan Gongzi's imagination is really rich. ”
Her eyes flowed, lingering on the single sparse surface, and there was a hidden brilliance.
Even if it is disguised, Shan Shulin's appearance is still an extremely eye-catching existence.
Faced with the queen's almost frivolous scrutiny, Shan Shulin pretended to ignore it, pulled the stool and sat down by himself: "It is impossible to release people." No matter how much you imitate her, I won't be able to let go. ”
The queen propped her head and smiled: "Of course, this palace is this palace, she is her, and in the heart of Shan Gongzi, it is common for the two not to be compared." ”
Shan Shulin grabbed a cup and rubbed it carefully in his hand: "In this case, the queen mother invited me here, it is worth thinking about it carefully." ”
Standing up, he paced around a few times, took out the incense ding, and poured out the spices that still shimmered with orange-red sparks. Sniffed it closely, and sneered: "The queen is really a good means, use it on her once, but come to provoke me again." ”
With a slight flick of his fingertips, he swung at the queen, who leaned sideways, dodged the ashes, unfolded a fan, and fanned it slightly, raising the ashes: "If my daughter had such caution as you, she would not be taken advantage of by you." ”
"Oh?"
Intentionally or unintentionally, after Shan Shulin swept the inner curtain, his face turned pale: "Used by me?" Or abandoned by you? Queen, your fallacy is ridiculous. ”
"Didn't you lie to her?" The queen shook the Goryeo paper fan, and the smile on her face became brighter.
Shan Shulin knew that it was no good for him to talk to her about this, so he could only listen to her nonsense and gather all the truth on her high ground.
If you continue to argue with the queen, you will only seem more and more unreasonable.
But the queen didn't want to let go of this topic: "What? Blame, don't you dare to say it? ”
Shan Shulin didn't fall into the trap, only looked at her coldly, clenched the teacup in his hand, and frowned.
"I don't think you dare tell her what you've done?" The queen laughed, becoming more and more unscrupulous.
Shan Shulin raised his face slightly and sneered: "Except for this, don't you have a second way to say?" ”
The last time the queen used the agitation method, it was also this set.
The queen smiled: "What? Killing her mother, killing her brother, and even killing her Lu Hui, do you want to deny it? ”
"It's obviously a wicked person who has done all kinds of bad things, and you have to pretend to be empathetic in front of her, Shan Gongzi, don't you feel tired?"
Shan Shulin's fist clenched tighter and tighter, and finally slowly spread out, and a cold smile appeared on his lips: "Queen, your medicinal powder is useless to me." ”
He raised his palm, clenched and loosened, and when he turned it over, a lot of brown powder fell out.
It was the Empress who intended to give him the medicine.
The queen's face changed slightly, and she seemed to have no idea. She covered her face with a paper fan, stood up, and walked towards Shan Shulin. Leaned over and raised Shan Shulin's face with a paper fan: "The medicine powder is useless, can there be violence?" ”
Shan Shulin retracted his jaw, and five snow-colored lights popped out under the paper fan, which could be swiped against Shan Shulin's chin. If it had been a step too late, the neck of the single sparse would have been cut open by these sharp blades.
The blow missed, and the queen raised her leg to slash at Shan Shulin's waist, the action was ruthless, and she was merciless, and her moves pointed to Shan Shulin's vital point.
Shan Shulin resisted with one finger, the coolness on his lips never dissipated, and fought with the queen for dozens of rounds, snatching the Korean paper folding fan in the queen's hand with skillful strength, and pointing at her throat with the tip of the knife hidden in the folding fan.
The queen hurriedly avoided it, and quickly stepped forward, turning her hands into fists and claws, and shook it towards Shan Shulin's heart.
Once struggling out of the bloody wind, the queen's fighting skills are far from being comparable to ordinary people, and for a while, Shan Shulin failed to gain the upper hand and was equal with the queen.
The two of them fought inseparably, but no one noticed the faint smoke rising from under the bed in the inner room.
The green smoke was very faint, and as soon as it touched the air, it quickly dissipated, blending into the incense charcoal lit by the original queen, and disappeared without a trace.
After a stick of incense, Shan Shulin's movements with the queen began to slow down.
Especially the queen, she gasped a little, her whole person seemed to be fished out of the water, and even the gauze clothes on her body looked a little thin.
Shan Shulin's face was abnormally cold, he leaned on the edge of the table, sat down slowly, and forcibly suppressed the fire in his heart.
Both of them were shocked:
Oops, it's a trick.
The queen looked at Shan Shulin and gritted her teeth, but just happened to see a blank look on the latter's face. She was puzzled at first, but then overjoyed, realizing that it was not a bad thing for her.
Confirming that the attendants had all gone away, she raised her hand and imitated Lu Hui's voice and said, "Ziqi ......"
