Chapter 81: Sit against the Emperor
Jian Xiu looked back at Liu Piaoyi, his face softened slightly, and he opened his mouth and said, "Yi'er is here to find me?" ”
He pursed his lips, only to feel a trace of joy overflowing in his heart, and a smile flashed in his eyes unconsciously.
Liu Piaoyi smiled and hurriedly replied, "Yes, yes." ”
Coming to him is probably the best reason.
Jian Xiu pursed his lips again and smiled, "That's actually here, come back with me when the time comes." ”
Liu Piaoyi replied cheerfully, "Okay." ”
Jian Xiu smiled, "Then you have a rest meeting here first, have some food, I will go to see the emperor, and I will accompany you later." ”
Liu Piao nodded hurriedly.
Jian Xiu's expression did not change, he got up and looked at Xing Ruchen, "Miao Yi will also stay here for the time being." ”
"Yes." ”
As soon as Jian Xiu went out, Liu Piaoyi beckoned to Xingruchen to come over, and said with a light smile, "Sir, do you think this little bronze bell is also very special." ”
"Well, Miss Liu likes it, the sound of this bronze bell after tapping is very pleasant, very good, it is rare to have such an object, it is special than other bronze bells." A faint smile rose on his thin lips and said carefully.
He was right, and Liu Piaoyi thought so. When she looked at the bronze bell again, Xingruchen's gaze swept over her face, and she thought for a moment and said, "If Miss Liu feels uncomfortable in her body next time and can't control the power, you can tap this bronze bell, maybe it will be relieved." ”
Liu Piao's face was stunned, it seemed that Xingruchen already knew her well, and even knew that the power of the ghost butterfly in her body was symbiotic. She suddenly understood that this time he deliberately mentioned the birth of his lifeless mother in front of him, tempting her to come, maybe there was a purpose, and this purpose was to let herself discover this bronze bell?
Liu Piao's expression sank, "Mr. asked Ji'er to come just to let Ji'er find this bronze bell, right?" Why does the gentleman have such a purpose? ”
Xing Ruchen is smiling, "Ruchen, this is also for Miss Liu's hello." ”
Liu Piaoyi withdrew his gaze from his body to look at the bronze bell on the table, puzzled, "This bronze bell is really that useful?" ”
Xingruchen said, "Ruchen once heard that Luo Qing got this bronze bell from somewhere, and the sound of striking it can deter ghosts. Later, when the Danzhou Wei was building the Wusheng Tower, he hung Luo Qing's bronze bell on the Wusheng Pagoda along with other ordinary bronze bells. ”
"This bronze bell is a magic weapon, for Taoist priests, the sound made by striking it can drive away ghosts, its power may be used to deter the ghost butterfly in your body, when it is uncontrolled in your body, you can knock it to make it quiet."
Liu Piaoyi understood it, so if the next time her body heats up again, when the butterfly mark shows a red light, and her behavior is uncontrollable, striking this bronze bell can restore her calm as soon as possible.
So much better.
She was worried that she would be like the Xuzhou Inn again, scaring Yunping to death. That's what she didn't want to see happen.
Come back to your senses, by the way, Su Qingshan. Forgot about him.
Su Qingshan had already slipped away, and quietly left when he saw Jinyi Wei coming up to the tower.
There was a sound of footsteps outside the window, accompanied by a chorus, "See the emperor." ”
This voice was not only heard by Xing Ruchen, but also by Liu Piaoyi, who frowned, got up and approached the window, and looked downstairs through the open window. In the courtyard of the guild hall, Jian Xiu returned to the guild hall with the emperor behind him. I saw the emperor's voice just now, and the brocade guards who were guarding this hall stepped forward to pay their respects.
A sneer faded from the corner of Liu Piao's mouth, and he silently recited the emperor's name in his heart - Zhu Yijun
~~~~~~~
At the corner of the street outside the gate of the Danzhou Hall.
Ye Xuemian glanced at the door of the Danzhou Hall and said to the old man beside her, "Father-in-law, everyone is inside, what should I do next?" ”
The old man's thin old face full of the vicissitudes of time smiled coldly, "It's rare to have such an opportunity, we should give this emperor a dismount." ”
Ye Xuemian frowned, "Does that woman care for the time being?" ”
The old man smiled coldly, "If people want to take them away, things have to be done." ”
Ye Xuemian asked the old man's opinion, "Does the father-in-law have a way?" ”
The corners of the old man's mouth pulled out a complicated smile, as if he had some idea. After thinking about it, the old man looked at Ye Xuemian, "Do you want to do something about your father's death?" ”
Speaking of her father, Ye Xuemian was depressed and nodded gloomily. How did she watch her father die back then, and if it weren't for the cruelty of the court bureaucrats, how could her father die.
She didn't hesitate and nodded in response to the old man, "What does the father-in-law ask Xue Mian to do, Xue Mian has no hesitation." ”
The old man looked at the gate of the guild hall again and smiled coldly, "Go deep into the backyard of the guild hall and look for an opportunity to poison your diet." ”
"What if the woman eats it too?" Ye Xuemian was worried about hurting the woman who was useful to them.
The old man is thinking about it. After thinking about it, he whispered in Ye Xuemian's ear.

Liu Piaoming lay down on the bed and fell asleep, and when he woke up, it was already dark. I just wanted to fall asleep but I didn't know how many hours I slept.
She blinked, and saw that the lamp had been lit in the room, and the candlelight on the candlestick not far from the foot of the bed was flickering, piercing her eyes.
"You're awake." A voice came, from far and near.
Liu Piaopiao sat up from the bed, looked sideways, and saw him sitting at the table in the room, with a gentle smile between his eyebrows.
"You ......"
Miss Liu wanted to say, how to stay in the room and watch her sleep, that is not to see her sleeping posture in her eyes. I don't know what indecent side the man discovered.
"When you wake up, go to dinner, and the emperor will let us go together." He approached her, looking at her with a calm gaze.
"Your Majesty? The emperor asked me to dine with him? Liu Piaoyi looked at Jian Xiu with a stagnant expression.
He groaned for a moment and whispered, "Yes, the emperor has been waiting for you to wake up, otherwise he won't eat." ”
Jian Xiu's expression was helpless.
Hearing this, the corners of Liu Piaoyi's mouth twitched, she was not familiar with the emperor, and only then did she meet, that person actually wanted to eat together, like a womanizer.
Seeing her wandering, Jian Xiu frowned and said calmly, "Yi'er doesn't want to go to see the emperor, you don't have to go, I'll just talk to the emperor." ”
Liu Piaoyi raised his eyes and smiled lightly at Jian Xiu, "It's okay, if there is anything bad about seeing the emperor, there is nothing wrong with having a meal." ”
She secretly said in her heart: It is difficult for that emperor to eat herself.
At this time, she was not the Yao people of Yao Village back then, nor was she one of those rebels and rebels in the eyes of the imperial court. There is something to be afraid of her, something not to see. She even wanted to see and understand what kind of person this Ming emperor was, and why he didn't say a few words as the king of a country back then to dissuade his mother from making such a decision.
Jian Xiu asked her again, "Do you really want to eat together?" ”
Liu Piaoyi got up and tidied up his clothes in front of him, and said indifferently, "Let's go." ”
In the elegant room of the guild hall, I heard that Miss Liu was awake, and the emperor was waiting in the private room one step earlier.
Jian Xiu took Liu Piaoyi to the door, and there were two brocade guards guarding at the door, and when they saw Jian Xiu, they opened the door with a salute.
Liu Piaoyi calmly followed Jian Xiu and walked in, and gave a salute in front of the emperor.
The Emperor took two steps closer to her, smiled and raised his hand to invite her to take a seat.
Jian Xiu pulled out a chair and separated it between the emperor and her, and asked Liu Piaoyi to sit down before he sat down himself.
The waiter Yu Yue walked to the door and served the food. The guys in the hall who had been waiting for a long time hurriedly brought in the dishes like plates. After placing it, he respectfully retreated.
The chamberlain Yu Yue was doing his job, and after trying the dishes with a silver needle, he said to the emperor, "Your Majesty, it's safe, you can eat." ”
Only then did the emperor raise his hand and invite Liu Piaoyi and Jian Xiu to eat.
As the emperor is so polite and humble, Liu Piaoyi still feels very gentlemanly and personable about his impression.
In front of the emperor, Jian Xiu didn't have any restraints, and picked up his chopsticks and put a chopstick dish into Liu Piaoyi's bowl, and said, "You haven't eaten for a day, eat more." ”
His eyes were full of tenderness and pampering, and he almost took it in his mouth.
The emperor on the side smiled stunned, although he didn't care about it, but he was not happy in his heart.
Whether Jian Xiu was casual or deliberate, perhaps only he understood. He was so gentle and spoiled just to let the emperor know how important this woman in front of him was in his heart, so that the emperor could see it, and it was also the reason why the emperor wanted to eat together, and he agreed.
"Yu Yue, pour the wine." Emperor Mu Ran called.
Yu Yue hurriedly picked up the wine jug and poured the wine in front of the emperor, and then filled his wine glass in front of Jian Xiu. Next, I will pour a glass for Miss Liu.
Jian Xiu smiled calmly at the emperor, "I don't drink alcohol. ”
The emperor frowned, "Miss Liu hasn't spoken yet, Jian Xiu, why are you in a hurry." Saying that, he looked at Miss Liu, raised his eyebrows, and said, "Miss Liu, why does he have to call the shots with you." ”
Liu Piaoyi smiled lightly and refused, "The courtiers really don't know how to drink, so let Jian Xiu accompany the emperor to drink." ”
The emperor obviously didn't mean to be embarrassed, and he wasn't displeased when he saw that Miss Liu didn't want to drink, but instead he smiled a little, "Miss Liu can't drink, so don't drink, eat more food." ”
As he spoke, he also put a chopstick dish into Liu Piaoyi's bowl.
The emperor's behavior obviously made Jian Xiu faintly displeased, and his brows moved slightly.
After taking a sip of wine, the emperor stared at Liu Piaoyi and found a topic, "The last time my queen mother went to Cishou Temple to worship the Buddha, Miss Liu was accompanied by her." ”
Liu Piaoyi smiled and nodded, "Yes." ”
The emperor rarely took his eyes off Liu Piao's face, and still said with a smile, "I heard that the Queen Mother likes Miss Liu very much, so why don't you accompany Miss Liu when she enters the palace in the future, okay?" ”
Jian Xiu's hand holding the cup tightened, and he was very clear about the emperor's intentions.
Liu Piaoyi smiled coldly in his heart, not that he didn't understand what kind of heart the emperor had. She's not stupid, so obvious that she can't see it.
Jian Xiu thought she would refuse, but she said slowly, "Okay." ”
The emperor hurriedly looked at Jian Xiudao, "You can hear it, Miss Liu agreed." ”
It's not me, it's her own will.
That's what the emperor wanted to say.
When Jian Xiu heard this, he smiled faintly at the corner of his mouth, and the smile was meaningful, and he unnaturally picked up the wine glass and took a sip of wine.
