For a while, the terrible wind outside the ruined temple was almost much calmer.

The yellow talismans attached to the ruined temple emitted a faint light, and the resentful spirits who were eyeing each other only dared to wander around.

……

The Mansion of the King of the Dragons.

As soon as Dugu Xingqi entered, he smelled a strong musty smell.

The night was already deep, and the candles were still lit in the palace of the king of the dragon, and the people were in a hurry, as if something big had happened in the palace.

Dugu Xingqian was dressed in black, avoided the people, and directly found the house of the Snake King.

As soon as she arrived, she faintly smelled a fishy smell, blood and fishy mixed together, and muffled by the smell of musty dampness.

She crouched at the foot of the wall, and saw a man's figure cast on the window by candlelight.

"Ahem." He covered his sleeves and coughed lightly, and saluted respectfully to the man on the high seat, "Your Majesty, it is the incompetence of the ministers that has caused such heavy losses in Lizhou, and the ministers ask Your Majesty to surrender." ”

Dugu Xingqian was slightly startled, she should have guessed that Ji Quan left the palace because of the flood in Lizhou.

It's just that I didn't expect him to move so fast, and the emperor has always made a lot of noise when traveling, so the itinerary is also very procrastinated.

She came all the way, and she had never heard anyone mention the emperor's visit to Lizhou, so it seemed that she came from Weifu.

It's also a coincidence that I met him this time.

She lowered her body, almost clinging to the foot of the wall, careful not to be detected.

The man in the room had a smoky voice, and he spoke with great sincerity.

I think this man is the Sixteenth Emperor Uncle Ji Xuan.

Just looking at the figure, it seems to be extremely weak, he has to take several breaths when he says a word, and he looks like he is seriously ill and has not recovered.

As soon as Ji Yu's words fell, his subordinates said, "Lord Wang, you have done your best, even desperate to block the embankment......"

"If it weren't for the fact that the second son of the Dugu family didn't listen to the advice, he had to dredge the Li River, and there would not have been such a tragedy as the embankment bursting."

"Shut up." Ji Yu waited for his subordinates to finish speaking, and then said, "The second prince is a world-shattering talent for governing the country, and the decision he made is right." ”

"But now that such a big thing has happened, there is no shadow of him running away, everything in Lizhou depends on the prince, and it is clear that the prince can only block it when he tries to persuade him, not loose."

There is obviously resentment in the hearts of his subordinates.

Dugu Xingyan listened outside, and probably touched a seven, seven, eight, eight, eight, this means that the second brother advocated dredging the Li River to control the flood, while the king insisted on blocking the water, the two had different opinions, and finally the king obeyed the second brother.

As a result, the Li River burst its banks, flooding more than a dozen villages in the lower reaches of Lizhou, and hundreds of people were drowned.

The second brother didn't dare to take this responsibility, so he ran away.

Of course, this is only one side of the story.

Although she had never seen her second brother, she also knew that the second brother would never be such a pit.

Among them...... There must be something else going on.

"Your Majesty, the ministers are too rude, please don't blame Your Majesty." Inside the house, the king bowed again.

The candlelight illuminated his fragile figure erratically.

After a long time, I heard the emperor on the high seat say, "Uncle Huang has worked so hard this time, so it is good to rest." ”

As always, the cold voice fell into Dugu Xing's ears through the window, and in this unfamiliar place, it made her feel a little kind.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compassion." King Owe knelt on the ground and saluted, "The ministers will do their best to search for the whereabouts of Dugu's second son, Your Majesty is tired of traveling and traveling, so you have to aggrieved Your Majesty to live in the cold house first." ”

"It doesn't matter." The emperor fell and let out a faint sound.

"The west wing has been cleaned up, Lizhou City is not clean at night, please rest early." As he spoke, he saw that the emperor had already risen.

Under the candlelight, his figure was as tall as a pine, and the silhouette of his side face fell clearly on the window, like a beautiful silhouette.

After a while, I heard the door open, and Ji Quan came out in a dark clothes.

Retreating from an imperial dragon robe, he was dressed extremely ordinary, extremely beautiful, with a good figure, and an ordinary Xuanyi was worn by him a lot more noblely.

Dugu Xing looked at him at the foot of the wall, and there were only two words 'handsome' in his mind at the moment.

It is the kind of aristocratic temperament that comes from within, and every gesture is incomparable to the extravagance.

In the dark night, his long hair is flying, like a noble son in the dark night, which makes people's hearts ripple.

Even Wei looked a little stunned, "I think this dog emperor is not half a point worse than your master Shimo's old guy." ”

It's still the kind that looks better the more you look at it.

Dugu Xingqi ignored it, Ji Quan didn't even have a follower around him, and the emperor of a country came to Lizhou alone, and his heart was inevitably too big.

The night wind has not stopped, and it continues to whine, surrounding Ji Quan, there are a few undead faintly, but they can't get close to him.

Before they got close to Ji Quan, they saw runes that were invisible to the naked eye pop out around him, forming a circle and protecting him inside.

The talisman drawn by Dugu Xingqian himself is naturally very strong.

Ji Quan seemed to feel something, a pair of phoenix eyes looked back, and Dugu Xingqi immediately held his breath.

The night wind was howling, and he didn't stay long, and then walked towards the west wing.

The King of Dragons was still standing at the door to greet him.

It was a man who looked to be about thirty years old, very thin, with a pale face, slightly sunken cheeks, and a bruise under his eyes.

It's obviously a pretty good look, but the spirit is very bad, and the whole person seems to be very depressed.

He was even a little hunchbacked, and only after Ji Quan left, did he straighten up and stare at his back for a long time.

"Lord Wang, take a little rest, Your Majesty is here now, and Your Majesty will take care of the follow-up matters." His men helped him and said worriedly.

When the King heard this, he just smiled, "That's really hard for His Majesty the Emperor." ”

At night, that smile is really a little infiltrating, and even Dugu Xingqi can get goosebumps when he sees it.

Later, I heard King Snake say, "Remember to send more troops, you must find out Dugujue, and you must see people in life and corpses in death." ”

"Yes."

waited until the candle flame was extinguished in the house of the king of the dragon, and Dugu Xingqi left.

In the second half of the night, she quietly touched the kitchen of the Snake King's Mansion, and her stomach was empty all day, and she was also a little hungry.

There is also a little Huai'an who is also hungry in the broken temple, and she can't leave it alone.

The kitchen of the Snake King's Mansion is very empty, some radish greens are wilted, and the rice jar has also bottomed out, not to mention any meat.

Dugu Xingqian rummaged for a moment, and only found two white-flour steamed buns and a small plate of fried vegetables.

She was just about to go out with the steamed buns, when she saw a familiar black shadow come in through the window.
