Chapter Twenty-Five: When to Fly
When Shen Liangchen and Chu Changting walked away, Yi Lunhuan beckoned gently: "Mei Rong." ”
"Yes." Mei Rong slowly walked out of the screen behind him, and the eunuchs and palace maids on the side all retreated with interest - the emperor had an order, once the emperor called Mei Rong to serve in front of the palace, everyone had to leave.
"I wondered, is it possible to choose a concubine?" Yi Lunhuan habitually rubbed his jade wrench, but found that it had been given to Shen Liangchen, and his eyes dimmed imperceptibly. Mei Rong was stunned when she heard this, and the brown and yellow pupils in her phoenix eyes were bottomless: "The emperor's son of heaven, the respect of the Ninety-Five, when you want to choose a concubine, it is up to the emperor to decide by yourself." ”
Yi Lunhuan didn't make a sound when he heard it, and after a long time, he said slowly in a muffled voice: "You go and personally supervise this matter." The girls of each family have been carefully selected by me. ”
Mei Rong nodded: "Then the queen's candidate, does the emperor have a choice?" ”
"Empty." Yi Lunhuan pursed his lips, and a trace of yin owl crossed his eyes, "In addition, the envoy of the Southern Barbarians, it is time for them to meet me." Tonight, Yongqing Palace, I will meet them for a while. But remember not to tell anyone. ”
"Yes." Mei Rong bowed her head in agreement, and then quickly disappeared outside the main hall.
戌時.
Yi Lunhuan sat on the dragon chair, the candle flame flickering, and his face could not be seen clearly.
The woman from the Nanban was short in stature and had a dull complexion, but her figure was as enchanting as a water snake, and every step seemed to be on the tip of a man's heart. The forehead of the hair is pulled back in a bun, and the hair is wrapped in a bun with dark black gold-trimmed silk to form a fusiform at the front and back. The dark green gauze half-covered the face, revealing a pair of dark brown eyes like glass beads. Dressed in a tender goose yellow cardigan, showing a brown plane flower in the middle, surrounded by a hundred birds and phoenixes on both sides, the well-developed twin peaks stand proudly, as if to break through the thin layer of fabric; He wears bright flower straight-leg pants with precise stitches embroidered with light orange phoenix flowers, and his two long and thin legs are well-proportioned and beautiful. Outside, there is a brown duck down coat. She and the other two women bowed to the ground, swept down the thick eyelash brush, Yi Lunhuan clenched his fists, and said coldly: "Get up." ”
"Emperor Xie Bei Tianzhuo, I wish the emperor a long life." The woman got up, her voice sweet and greasy, like a phoenix flower that had been quenched with poison. She bowed her head slightly, and the corners of her mouth curled into a nonchalant smile.
Yi Lunhuan looked at this woman carefully and felt that her identity was not ordinary. The woman met his tentative gaze and spoke again: "I am the princess of Nanyaoyue Kingdom, Huang Lingfeng. ”
The spirit of the phoenix, a long return. I think slowly, and it will never backfire. When will you fly?
Yi Lunhuan's eyes rippled round by circle, and he suddenly felt that this princess was a little interesting, so he looked at her playfully and asked, "Then do you have small characters, called Peiying?" ”
"The emperor is really knowledgeable and talented, which makes Princess Ben really admire." Huang Lingfeng's eyes widened slightly in surprise.
"It's just an allusion to the phoenix flower." Yi Lunhuan waved his hand slightly, and his face returned to his previous cold appearance, "Say, what is the purpose of this trip." Is it just to assassinate the daughter of the Prime Minister's family? Speaking of this, a cloud of anger suddenly rose in Yi Lunwan's eyes, and anger poured out from the tips of his eyes and spread throughout his face.
Huang Lingfeng pursed her lips lightly, and said a little coquettishly: "That person who doesn't have a long brain was not sent out by me, presumably the emperor has already taught her a good lesson for me." After closing the words, Huang Lingfeng raised his head, and his two snake-like eyes looked at Yi Lunhuan fixedly.
It's bold. Yi Lunhuan frowned slightly.
"She took advantage of such a big day as the October Dynasty to assassinate the prime minister's daughter, and I have already sent someone to correct her on the spot." Yi Lunhuan picked up the Runsang Mountain Gardenia tea on the table and took a sip gently, and a casual tone of indifference made Huang Lingfeng clench his fists but it was not easy to attack, so he could only pull the corners of his mouth and say with a smile: "I, a subordinate, is reckless and unlucky, and I don't deserve any pity." However, Emperor, the purpose of my trip is not to seek war, but to seek peace. ”
"Oh?" Yi Lunhuan raised her eyelids and motioned for her to continue.
Huang Lingfeng pursed his lips and said: "I also ask the emperor to give me the marriage of Shen Liangchen, the general of the Northern Heavenly Burning Kingdom, and I guarantee on behalf of the Southern Yaoyue Kingdom that I will not invade again in this life." ”
Yi Lunhuan raised his eyes suddenly, and the yin owl in his eyes was as vicious as a snake and scorpion.
For a long time, a cold smile appeared on his face.
Prime Minister's Office.
Chu Changting was lying on the table, and the tea on the side had already cooled for most of it.
"It's hard at night, so Miss should rest early." Xun'er came from outside the door, walked to Chu Changting with a pot of freshly brewed boiling tea, and then replaced the old tea with new tea for her, "Miss, wait for this soothing tea to cool down again, drink it, go and rest." ”
"Xun'er, I can't sleep." Chu Changting raised his furry head, which was already a little messy, stretched out his hand to pull Xun'er's sleeve, and said a little heavily, "The wedding date is getting closer and closer, but I always don't know why...... For some reason, I was anxious and annoyed for no reason. I should have been happy to see him when I came back today, but somehow I was so depressed now. ”
"Miss is anxious about the wedding date, this is a mistake that everyone will make, always worried that something will go wrong, in fact, nothing will happen." Xun'er poured the tea and held Chu Changting's hand with her backhand, "It's good that Miss is waiting to be married into the door." ”
Chu Changting smiled bitterly, she had experienced so many fights and killings these days, and her heart was no longer as open as before, she didn't know why, she came back from the palace today, looking at Shen Liangchen's happy appearance, but she never told him about her danger at the banquet in the October Dynasty.
What are you afraid of, and what are you looking forward to?
Who was the one who harmed her, and who was the one who saved her?
Chu Changting's eyes looked straight into the distance, and suddenly two lines of tears slipped down, and she hurriedly wiped them away and didn't want Xun'er to see it. After a long time, she took the tea a little numbly and drank it all, then got up and lay down on the bed, and after Xun'er made the bed for her and left, she turned over and closed her eyes, and there were two lines of tears.
In the dream, a thin figure gradually drifted away, Chu Changting wanted to chase but couldn't move, just when she was crying and shouting anxiously, the figure suddenly turned around, she wiped away her tears and looked at it, Shen Liangchen looked at her with tenderness.
"You, don't go......"
