Chapter 2: The Nine Emperors

Not surprised by the appearance of the other party, Bai Tang just turned his head to look, and then looked at the sparkling stream.

If it was usual, she wouldn't speak first, but she didn't know if it was the dream just now, and the stone seemed to have a slight ripple in her heart.

She said, "Aren't you afraid of being taken as an assassin when you appear at this time?" ”

The man seemed a little surprised by her quip, turned his head to look at her fixedly for a few seconds, and then followed suit, his voice low and sexy, especially sultry in the night, "If I was considered an assassin, would you speak for me, or...... Come and get me personally? There seemed to be a slight smile in his words.

Bai Tang reacted, and also felt that his sudden joke was a little inexplicable.

She didn't answer, just raised her hand and pinched her eyebrows, waving her hand, "Don't come to me again." ”

In response to her, there was a stagnant atmosphere and a depressed depression.

She pursed her lips and turned to leave.

The man didn't step forward to stop him, he just stood there fixedly, his voice a little cold, "I'm the kind of person who will be obedient?" ”

Bai Tang paused, frowned, and seemed to be a little anxious, but it was very subtle.

She turned to look at the other party, and her voice was a little deep, "The imperial city is not as far as the mountains, and the imperial palace is not a palace, so you can't go back and forth freely." ”

As soon as she said this, the two fell into a brief silence, and then a deep chuckle rang out in the night.

Bai Tang was inexplicably laughed at by him, his brows furrowed even tighter, and asked, "What are you laughing at?" ”

"Are you worried about me?" There was a hint of laughter in the man's words, and he seemed to be in a good mood.

The corners of Bai Tang's eyes twitched, "You think too much." ”

The man didn't care about her retort this time, but said, "As long as this seat is willing, there is no obstacle anywhere." ”

Then, he stopped continuing the topic and asked, "What are your plans to go back this time?" ”

Bai Tang tilted his head, the anxiety between his eyebrows seemed to disappear, and his heart slowly calmed down, "I don't have any plans." ”

"Why do you have to go back, there's nothing worth your nostalgia there, isn't it, it's better to come with me, you can do whatever you want, you don't have to be locked in a cage like a canary."

"You're over-controlling." Bai Tang squinted at him.

The man snorted coldly, "I really want to take you away directly and be the lady of the village." ”

"Only ......" Bai Tang just wanted to sneer at each other, but suddenly heard the movement behind him, so he stopped.

The man also turned his head to look at the place where the movement was made, as if he was not in a good mood, and just dropped a sentence, "If you don't want me to turn the imperial city upside down, don't provoke others casually." With that, he disappeared into the night.

There was a rustling sound in the back, and then a man slowly walked through the trees.

"White girl?"

"Commander Wei."

"Are you alright?" Commander Wei walked out and looked around vigilantly, his eyebrows slightly furrowed, as if he was a little puzzled.

"No, how did Commander Wei get here?"

"I heard that you came here and haven't been back, for fear of any accidents, so come and look for it, you're fine." Commander Wei retracted his gaze, looked at Bai Tang, and smiled heartily, but there was a burning heat in his eyes that could not be hidden.

"It's okay, I just can't sleep, come out for a walk, the night breeze is a little cold, I'll go back first." Bai Tang smiled faintly at him, and then turned to leave.

Commander Wei watched her leave, then turned his head to look around, and made sure that there was really nothing, so he followed.

Looking at Bai Tang's flickering back in the night, Commander Wei's eyes were slightly heavy, and the dark light under his eyes flickered, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

The next day, the large army pulled out the camp and continued to set off, arriving at the post house near noon.

When the procession stopped, someone who had been at the inn in the morning stepped forward.

"It's Brother Jiu, Brother Jiu!" The little princess Wei Yuan, who came out, happened to see the person who was leading the way, and her eyes lit up, and she immediately raised her hand to cheer.

The man at the head was about twenty years old, dressed in white light armor, with a silver crown on his head, and his inky hair hanging down his waist was spread out behind his back, but he was tied with silver thread at the end.

He has an outstanding temperament, and his eyebrows and eyes are extraordinary, like a condenser, which is impossible to ignore.

Seeing Wei Yuan, his cold eyes seemed to be lit up, the corners of his mouth curled into a smile, nodded at her, and then arched his hand, "Wei Jiuli, the commander of the Imperial City Guards, has been ordered by His Majesty to come and escort the Queen Mother back to the palace." ”

The car door was opened, and Bai Tang and Wei Yuan helped the Queen Mother to get out of the car.

The Queen Mother looked at the handsome and extraordinary young man in front of her, her eyes were slightly complicated, as if she was scrutinizing, and she seemed to feel guilty, and finally she sighed helplessly, and her eyes softened a little, "Xiao Jiu, I haven't seen you for eight years, and the mourning family almost can't recognize it." ”

When they left the palace, this child was free from pain, and the thirteen-year-old boy looked about the same as a seven- or eight-year-old child, but now he was as tall as a pine, handsome and dazzling.

However, seeing that he was upright and awe-inspiring, his eyebrows were clear, his eyes were clear and resolute, and he was not overshadowed by the suffering of his childhood, he was immediately relieved, and said with a smile, "Why, I haven't seen him for a few years, and I don't even want to call my grandmother?" ”

Hearing that there was no reproach or dissatisfaction in her words, the young man also smiled and said, "Welcome back to the imperial grandmother." As he spoke, his gaze fell to the side without a trace.

The Queen Mother kept looking at him, and naturally caught his deviated gaze, the corners of her eyes slanted to the side, a hint of different color flashed under her eyes, and then chuckled, "Speaking of which, it's not just Xiao Jiu who has changed a lot in eight years, I don't know if you still recognize it when you see you now." ”

"I know it, White Girl, long time no see." He smiled at Bai Tang, his smile was gentle and polite, but it seemed to be separated by something, a little alienated.

Bai Tang also calmly bowed his head, "The Nine Emperors are fine." ”

The two seemed to have just met for the first time, and there were not too many mood swings.

The Queen Mother's eyebrows frowned slightly, and a trace of complexity appeared in her eyes.

The little princess Wei Yuan, who was left out in the cold, didn't do it, and immediately shouted, "Ninth brother, ninth brother, and me." ”

"Yes, and our princess Yuanyuan." Wei Jiuli chuckled.

Wei Yuan's interruption seemed to have broken up the strange atmosphere just now.

Because the Queen Mother is old and her health is not very good, it is not suitable to work and travel, so the team will temporarily stay in the post house for one day and set off the next day.

"Sister Tangtang, how is the imperial grandmother?" When Bai Tang exited the Queen Mother's bedroom and was about to return to the house, he was stopped by Wei Yuan.

"It's okay, I didn't have a good rest yesterday, and now I'm asleep."

Hearing her say this, Wei Yuan was relieved, and then her eyes lit up, and she immediately pulled Bai Tang and ran down, "Since the imperial grandmother is asleep, Sister Tangtang, you have nothing to do, otherwise let's go out for a walk." ”

Bai Tang was dragged away by her, and she was a little funny when she heard the words, "What is there to visit here, there is no store in front of the village and no store in the back, and there is only a post house independent here." ”

"Of course there is, Brother Jiu said that there is a mountain forest in the back mountain, and we can go hunting!"

Bai Tang's footsteps paused slightly, and at this time they also arrived at the staircase, and happened to meet a person who went up the stairs.
