Chapter 195: Ethereal Tower

Ethereal Tower.

The carriage stopped at the main entrance of the Ethereal Building.

Chenguang got out of the carriage and looked around.

The ethereal building is a gambling house, but it is completely different from other gambling houses, the decoration is elegant, the appearance is elegant, there is no most common shouting and scolding in the gambling house, it is said that the casino is more like a teahouse.

Simend, the head of the Ethereal Building, greeted him at the door, smiling and letting in the morning light.

The spacious corridor is lined with exquisite private rooms with closed doors, and occasionally you will meet guests who are accompanied by beautiful maids walking in the corridors.

"Is this really a casino, it's so quiet." Chenguang said.

"The gambling house is downstairs, the first floor to the second floor is the tea room, and the ethereal building only accepts distinguished guests, so it is much quieter than the usual gambling house." Simon explained with a smile.

Chenguang nodded.

Simon took Chenguang to a hidden box on the third floor and ordered refreshments to be served.

Chenguang huddled on the chair with his knees huddled and picked up a piece of glutinous rice cake to eat.

Simon unfolded a map in front of Chenguang, which was the territory of the Chiyang Kingdom.

The territory of Chiyang is very similar to the shape of a hill, and the word "mountain" can be drawn in the sketch painting, and a wide river runs through the whole territory from east to west, which is the Sumi River.

It is said that after reaching the western end, the Sumi River will flow underground, and this section of the underground river will cross the border between Chiyang and Nanyue, becoming the most important river in Nanyue.

Simon put his hand on the map, pointed to the red part on it, and said to Chenguang:

"These are the weapons fields of the Chiyang Kingdom that we know, and it is here that there has been an abnormality recently, out of the Liudao Mansion to the south, from the Pingping Ferry into the Sumi River, down the river, to the Zhoutong Islands, the newly discovered armory field is on an island near the Zhoutong Islands, I have heard a loud noise from the island more than once, because I feel suspicious, so I sent a message to Lord Changxi. We also sent people to investigate, but they were broken, and after that, the island was on guard, and our people did not dare to act rashly, for fear of startling the snake. ”

Chenguang bit the glutinous rice cake in his hand one by one, staring at the Zhoutong Islands marked on the map with his eyes straight away, and did not speak.

This is the first time Simon has seen Chenguang, he has heard many rumors, but he has seen it with his own eyes but found that many places are different from the rumors, which makes him more and more unable to figure out Chenguang's temper, seeing that Chenguang does not speak, he is puzzled, and can't help but glance at the people around her.

Huo Wu received his eyes, glanced at the morning light, and whispered:

"Your Highness."

Chenguang came back to his senses, grabbed a glutinous rice cake from the plate and ate it, and said to Simon while eating:

"Let's talk about the royal family of Chiyang Kingdom."

"Chiyang Kingdom is now Dou Xiao as the emperor, and there are four of the most famous adult princes, the crown prince Dou Mu, the second prince Dou Cheng, the third prince Dou Ke, and the seventh prince Dou Xuan. The crown prince Dou Mu is born by the queen, and there are six Chinese New Year's Eve today, waiting for the succession for many years, but Emperor Chiyang's body is getting tougher and stronger year by year. The second prince Dou Cheng and the third prince Dou Ke were born by Ning Guifei and Xin Guifei respectively. The most famous is the seventh prince Dou Xuan, three years ago, a boy took a hairpin and suddenly came to the holy city, stopped the royal car on the way back to the palace of the Chiyang Emperor, claiming that he was the biological son of the Chiyang Emperor, saying that his mother was the youngest sister of the third prince's mother Xin Guifei, and the Peony Lady who was famous in the Holy City. This incident is well known to everyone in Chiyang Country, when everyone thought that Emperor Chiyang would behead Dou Xuan for the sake of face, regardless of whether it was true or not, but they didn't expect that after tossing it, Emperor Chiyang actually recognized Dou Xuan, and Dou Xuan became the seventh prince of Chiyang Kingdom. Two years ago, the seven princes came of age, and at the beginning of this year, Emperor Chiyang named the seven princes as King Ling and left the palace to open the mansion. ”

Chenguang chewed the glutinous rice cake, blinked his eyes twice, and said, "In other words, Emperor Chiyang slept with his sister-in-law?" ”

"Yes." Simon was a little embarrassed when he answered, although this kind of thing was very common, but he was embarrassed to ask so frankly.

"Lady Peony...... What kind of lady is it? Chenguang thought about it for a long time and didn't understand it, so he asked suspiciously.

"She is a person who is more beautiful than peony flowers, because of her amazing beauty, she was named 'Lady Peony' by Emperor Chiyang at the palace banquet."

"In these years, if she is a good-looking woman, she is said to be 'shocked', and in the future, 'shocking and celestial' can form a Keju team." Chenguang said.

Simon smiled wryly and continued:

"Mrs. Peony once had a husband, two years after marriage, her husband died of illness, widowed at home, very untreated by her in-laws, she often went into the palace to talk to her sister to relax, but she was favored by Emperor Chiyang, and the pearl fetus was secretly knotted overnight. Emperor Chiyang originally wanted to accept her as a concubine, but on the day that Mrs. Peony was officially welcomed into the palace, she was startled halfway, and the carriage fell into the river and disappeared. Unexpectedly, after nineteen years, Mrs. Peony's son was actually recovered. ”

Chenguang flattened her mouth, thinking that like Mrs. Peony, wanting her mother to be expensive with her son, it was simply wishful thinking, and when a group of women in the palace were vegetarians, her behavior was simply contempt for the "combat effectiveness" of the women in the palace.

Can you also surprise horses when you enter the palace?

The horse's butt doesn't have to have had many stitches.

Poor horse.

"Your Highness." Simon called.

"Huh?"

"Forgive the grass people for the sin of disrespect."

"Say."

"Your Royal Highness's sister is a precious concubine...... and the prince of Chiyang Kingdom, there is some innocence. ”

"Hmm!" Chenguang let out a long snort, indicating that he understood.

She wasn't surprised.

Si Xuerou is a stubborn, but the most obedient good child.

She smiled.

……

Ethereal Tower.

A quiet private room.

Purple bamboo shoot tea, tea fragrant, water vapor.

The boy in white, embroidered lotus on the hem of his clothes, such as Zhi Rulan.

He sat under the window, his face was like a beautiful jade, his fingers were slender, his demeanor was elegant, his expression was tranquil, quietly tasting the faint and mellow tea, in the fragrance of the tea, the amber eyes were like clouds and mist, illusory his figure, and he didn't look like a person living in this turbid world.

The door rang softly, Fu Li walked in quickly from the outside, came to Shen Run's side, and whispered:

"Childe."

The knobby hand put down the teacup, and Shen Run withdrew his gaze from the window and looked at him.

"I found the whereabouts of the Phoenix Lord of the Phoenix Dynasty, the Phoenix Lord stayed at the Qinsheng Inn in Liudaofu at dusk yesterday, and only brought a man and three women with him, and the person sent to inquire carefully inquired about the characteristics, and the people who followed the Feng Lord should be Si Qian, Huo Wu and Si Qi Si Ba, there will be no mistake."

After listening to this, Shen Run didn't speak for a long time, and after a while, he picked up the teacup, took a shallow sip of tea, and asked in a low voice:

"How does she look?"

His question made Fu Li confused, and he didn't know how to answer, so he was stunned for a moment, and said curtly:

"Hui Gongzi, it's good."

"Really?" Shen Run said softly, he put down the teacup, and the teacup touched the table, making a "ding" sound.

Fu Li shivered inexplicably, he suddenly felt that it was very cold in this room.
