440 The wind blows the clouds
Regarding Xiao Ting's instructions, Zhaohua didn't say anything after reading it, only nodded and said, "Then I'll go back first, you guys will be busy first." ”
After speaking, he bowed down and turned to leave.
From beginning to end, he never looked at Wei Chi Xinhan.
Everyone: "......"
Xu Changsheng sighed and said, "You seem to have forgotten something. ”
"What?" Everyone turned around and looked at him in bewilderment.
At this moment, someone outside came to report, and everyone couldn't leave Licheng.
After careful questioning, I learned that some people went out of the city this morning, and the city gate was wide open, but the people who went out turned back after a while, and the fog was thick outside, and they couldn't go out at all.
A lot of people have tried it, and it's still the same.
Everyone was nervous at this time, and everyone couldn't leave Licheng, which was equivalent to being trapped here.
The soldiers defending the city also went to try it out themselves, and then ran over to report back.
Xu Changsheng was not surprised at all, "We are trapped. ”
"What's going on?" Everyone was anxious, for fear that it would be the weird incident last time.
Xu Changsheng shook his head, "The entire city has been set up as a barrier and protected, and no one will be able to enter or leave for ten years." ”
Obviously, he had already gone around the outside world and knew the general idea.
"The king, did the princess?" Li Mo reacted immediately.
The crowd was silent......
And at this moment, on the avenue outside Licheng, there are two men and a woman.
The man is handsome and extraordinary, and the woman is delicate and lovely.
It was Xiao Ting, the Nine Princes, and the three of them.
"So, satisfied?"
After finishing the final touch, the castle tower in front of him gradually became blurred, and then disappeared in a white mist, and finally disappeared completely.
The city in front of her was replaced by a piece of greenery, Xiao Ting bent her eyebrows and nodded with satisfaction.
"It's good now, are you sure those people can't open this formation?"
Still, she wasn't convinced.
Qianjun nodded, and said very confidently: "Don't worry, the formation plus the Xuanfa, they will definitely not be able to open." ”
"Alright, let's go!" Xiao Ting looked back, grabbed Chu Li's arm, and said, "Chu Xiaoli, let's go to the Imperial City!" ”
Chu Li nodded lightly and did not speak, but his eyes looked at the unknown place through this lush greenery.
The wind turned around calmly.
The three of them went on the road together, and Qianqian was an idle master, and asked Xiao Ting curiously, "Are you really bold, do you really want to go to the imperial city?" ”
Xiao Ting raised her eyebrows and asked, "What?" Are you scared? ”
"My son will be scared, just to see the excitement."
Now, the imperial city of the empire can be described as a place where the storm will meet, because yesterday they had already released the rumor that Chu Li would appear.
Everybody who hears the news rushes over, including those people.
Because, Licheng is no longer the target of those people.
"That's good!"
Spirituality, witchcraft, martial arts will come together.
Chu Li didn't say much along the way, only occasionally looking at an unknown place, and he would be in a daze.
Xiao Ting talked to him as much as she could, but although Chu Li forgot some things, she was still the same character as before, she was not good at words, but when she saw Xiao Ting, she would smile more.
Two months later, the people of the Imperial City discovered a phenomenon.
More and more people came to the Imperial City, and almost within a few days, all the inns and taverns were full.
Next, even some dilapidated courtyards that no one cared about became sought-after goods and were temporarily rented.
The whole imperial city is becoming more and more lively.
"Is this what happened? Why did so many people come in all at once? ”
Someone wondered what was going on next to him.
"Haven't you heard? You don't even know about such a big thing. ”
"What?" The man asked mysteriously and deliberately in a whisper, attracting the attention of many people.
Everyone looked over.
Seeing this, this person smiled with relief, returned to his normal voice, and said, "I heard that the Nine Princes are coming back." ”
"You mean Chu Li? The scourge. ”
"Yes, it's him."
"People all over the world have been looking for him for a whole year and there has been no news, why did he suddenly have news?"
Naturally, some people don't believe it and think that this news may be fake.
"What's so strange about that?" Someone retorted, "The whole world is looking for him, and as long as one person finds his trace, he has nowhere to run, and now he is only seen in advance." ”
Of course, there are others who disagree.
"It is said that this Nine Princes is a disaster star, but he has never done anything harmful."
"Not bad. I see, perhaps some people made it up to frame him. ”
Someone wonders, "You mean ......"
As soon as this certain person came out, everyone's eyes looked in the direction of the palace, and it was obvious that there were more than one or two people who had such thoughts.
"Come to think of it, a year ago, no one knew what happened in the imperial tomb. Who knows what the hell is going on? ”
The people of the festival were naturally not allowed to watch closely, but the events of that day had been passed on one after another, and there were even more good people who reversed and pieced together the things at that time, and there were probably dozens of versions.
Of course, there is more support for such a statement as today's son.
The Nine Princes are the stars of calamity, and it is precisely because of his appearance that all the people were killed, including Emperor Renxiao and the envoys of various countries who came to watch the ceremony of sacrificing to the heavens.
Today's emperor ascends the throne with the support of the empress dowager and the corroboration of the empress.
It's still a sure thing.
But there is still a version that circulates it.
And it's so fast that no one knows where it comes from.
His statement is very simple, and it is also in line with the psychology of most people.
That is, in order to seize the throne, today's son killed everyone, and then blamed the Nine Princes.
Some people even speculate that maybe the Nine Princes have already died, otherwise why didn't anyone find him all year long?
Now that there is suddenly the whereabouts of the Nine Princes, there is definite news that he is already on his way to the Imperial City, and he is walking the world openly, without fear at all.
This approach has made many people more inclined to the second version.
Not to mention how they discuss it?
At this moment, the atmosphere in the palace is also extremely tense.
The Empress Dowager's face was not very good-looking, and the emperor sat beside her, a little submissive.
This made the Empress Dowager even more displeased.
Qianshu and the others were still dressed in white and sat in the guest seats.
"What the hell did you call us for?"
"Chu Li appeared." The Empress Dowager said bluntly.
"So what? Will you be afraid of him? Qianshu sneered.
This woman's calculations were something he had never encountered before.
In his opinion, the men in this world are nothing more than that.
"Don't talk cool here." The Empress Dowager got up and glanced at the emperor contemptuously, "According to reliable information, he is with the young master of the thousand clans. ”
"What the hell are you trying to say?" Qian Shu was not surprised, obviously he already knew these news.
"I want to say that since Chu Li is on the side of the Spiritual Wizard, he is an enemy of our Wu Clan."
Speaking of this, the Empress Dowager's voice fell, and she suddenly frowned.
"You know, he's not afraid of any spells."
Such an important matter, Qianshu naturally knows.
"Isn't he exactly what you did to create him?"
"You're right, I used the forbidden art of the witch clan to create him, but now he has long been out of my control."
"That's why you let that woman kill him in the first place! It didn't work out that way. ”
Qianshu subdivided the amount and began to sort out these things.
"It's just not going well." The Empress Dowager did not admit her mistake.
"Everyone has their own demons and their own obsessions, Chu Li is the same, Xiangxiang is still the same, you and I are no different."
This is what she has always believed in.
Qian Shu bent his knees and shook his head: "Then do you know that your own demons?" ”
The Empress Dowager was stunned for a moment, and then became expressionless.
That unrivaled face gradually cracked.
Qianshu turned around and left, not lingering any longer.
"Young master, that Chu Li is really a scourge, do you want me to go?"
Someone suggested that killing Chu Li cut off all possibilities, so that their Wu clan could compete with the current Xuanmen.
Otherwise, that person will threaten them at any time.
"Qianyu dares to walk with them openly, presumably he has some kind of affirmation of everything, and he will talk about it when they come to the imperial city."
Qian Shu raised his hand and stopped what they were going to say.
"Send someone to contact Qianji, I want to see him alone."
"Yes." A few people were startled, looked at each other a few times, and didn't say anything.
In the other direction of the imperial city, the Yaochi Palace is very lively at the moment.
The owner of Yaochi Palace is Xiao Guifei.
Since a year ago, Emperor Renxiao, now King Rui ascended the throne, and all the concubines left by Emperor Renxiao have been driven to this area.
Eating and living naturally cannot be arbitrary.
There is only Yaochi Palace, and no one touches it.
When Xiao Lingyue heard the news that the Ninth Prince was going to return to the Imperial City, she was standing at the window, and her slender jade fingers were pinching a flower tree.
The branches are pretty and pink, and they have no intention of fighting for the odds!
Hearing this, her hand loosened, and the delicate flowers on the branches trembled, and then fell in a flutter.
Occasionally, there was a breeze, and the petals of the flowers fluttered in the wind, and finally they did not know where they were going.
"They're finally back!"
"!"
Xiao Lingyue looked back, dressed in a plain dress, her face was not colored, but it did not damage her elegance and nobility at all, she walked barefoot through the palace, came to the soft couch, and lay down sideways.
With his back to the person who replied, he slowly spoke, "Chunyi, can your master say how to cooperate with this palace?" ”
"!" Chunyi knelt down with a plop, she was Xiao Lingyue's personal maidservant, and she also entered the palace with her.
But her real master is not Xiao Lingyue.
"You don't have to say anything, you just need to tell Hongu, what else can I do for him?"
"The master asked the slave and maid to bring the words, and King Rui must die!"
"Good!" Xiao Lingyue stretched out a finger and waved it, motioning for her to go down.
Chunyi wanted to say something, but in the end he couldn't say anything, so he had to retreat.
After a while, a woman walked out from behind the screen, also dressed in fine clothes, very young, but her eyes were full of evil spirits.
Especially when looking at a person, the evil aura almost overflowed into people's hearts through the corners of her mouth.
It makes people feel bottomless.
