"Aiqing has a way?" King Bao's eyes lit up.

"No—" Lord Xu said with a sly smile.

"The king knows that when King Li of the Great Zhou was alive, there was a story in the inner palace." Master Xu said faintly.

King Bao held his chin with his hand and thought for a moment.

"What Aiqing said, but what about the demon dragon black box?"

"The king is wise." Lord Xu replied.

"But what does this have to do with our plans?"

"The king knows that if that beauty enters the palace of the Son of Heaven with a group of people and horses openly, she will definitely take the official road. And starting from my Bao country, to Hojing is bound to pass through the Xiyu country, and the Xiyu country has always believed in the gods and ghosts. And as the watchdog of his Zhou court, if they turn around and bite their master, or become our dog, it will inevitably make the princes disagree with the current King of Zhou. At this time, I am listed as an example for all princes, and I will definitely take this opportunity to cultivate a large number of forces dissatisfied with the king of Zhou, so that this bad thing will become a good thing. Lord Xu raised his eyebrows and smiled, gently fanned the colorful feather fan in his hand, and said to King Bao.

King Bao frowned and asked, "What does Aiqing mean...... Can you be clearer? ”

Lord Xu replied: "According to legend, the legend of the black box demon dragon was very taboo in the Zhou Dynasty, and the Xiyu Kingdom is located in a neighboring country, and it believes in feng shui. When King Li was alive, since the box appeared, the harem was in chaos, and the harem was even more chaotic. And King Zhou Li later inexplicably began tyranny, wantonly looting the people's fat and ointment, which led to the final death of Yu in the land. Everyone is the demon who fell in love with the demon and became a demon who escaped from the eighteen layers of hell to punish the world, and what the people know is the two strange black lizards, they think that the black lizard is an ominous symbol, the embodiment of the demon, and the beginning of the death of the country. ”

"So ......"

"Those two black lizards entered the arms of the woman, if we make that beauty also into the appearance of a demon dragon running out of the black box, and when passing through the Xiyu Kingdom, the people saw that the king of Zhou actually accepted such a demon girl, and the king of the Xiyu Kingdom will definitely oppose it in order to comply with the people. If it is one of them, then the king of Zhou can listen to the words of the king of Xiyu and abandon the beauty, we can secretly take her back to the territory of Bao Kingdom, and use her to hook the Xuannu to come back obediently to save her, and then fall into our trap. If it is the second, then the king of Zhou loves this beauty even more, and insists on including this beauty in the harem, that is to lose the state of Xiyu, which is a city guard, so I can take this opportunity to recruit princes, and the country of Xiyu is adjacent to Haojing in the north and I am in the south, so it is inevitable to choose a country to embrace at that time. In this way, no matter what the result is, we will take advantage of the country. ”

When King Bao heard this, he couldn't help but be excited, he patted Lord Xu's shoulder and said with joy on his face: "Aiqing, it's really the most capable Aiqing." Such a clever plan, I'm afraid only you can think of it. ”

"The king praised it." Lord Xu arched his hand.

"Hahaha." The two of them kept excited about this plan in advance.

Lord Xu left the palace with brisk steps, he looked at the changing clouds in the sky, he knew that the sky was about to change.

"It's a pity, it's a pity." Lord Xu sighed lightly, but what he thought in his heart was: King Bao, King Bao, you shouldn't have been, believe me, a Changgong palace person, poor Gongsun Qing, that old guy has done his best for you to praise the country, but now he has ended up like this. It's really sad and lamentable, I don't know what kind of scene it is for you two monarchs and ministers to meet each other day and earth.

"Miss, you're finally getting better." Lingxi excitedly helped Qizhao out of bed.

The stone clothes on the side hurriedly closed the window to prevent Qizhao's weak body from being injured and not suffering from the wind and cold.

Qi Zhao saw it in his eyes and said softly: "Thank you." ”

Shi Yi didn't say anything, just slightly bowed his head, and when he raised his eyes, he just saw the spirit rhino passing by, and his eyes couldn't help but unconsciously stay on the spirit rhino's body, and the spirit rhino looked at Shi Yi uncontrollably.

"Spirit, Spirit?" Qi Zhao screamed a few times, and Lingxi came back to his senses and took the cloak to Qi Zhao.

"How many days has the king been gone?" Qizhao asked as he sipped his tea.

"Miss, it's been more than a month."

It turned out that it was only a month. But why, I feel that the days have passed so long, as if years have passed, and I have grown old.

Qizhao thought faintly.

Seeing Qi Zhao's expression, Ling Xi hurriedly said with concern: "Miss, you have to relax. If you are always so depressed in your heart, I am afraid that your body will never get better. ”

"I'm fine. Can the king send a message saying, 'When will he return?' Qizhao asked Shi Yi, who shook his head with a cold face.

Seeing that Qi Zhao's expression had dimmed again, Ling Xi hurriedly poured tea and comforted: "Miss, you have to relax, didn't the king say it, he will come to pick you up." ”

Qizhao sighed deeply, put on a thick jacket, only felt that the room was stuffy, she wanted to go out for a walk, so she took Lingxi and Shiyi out of the courtyard.

It is already the second day of the lunar month, and the weather is getting colder and colder. The soldiers in Situ's mansion were also dispersed, and only a group of forbidden troops left by King Zhou remained.

Qizhao slowly paced in Situ's mansion, looking at the pavilions and pavilions that used to be, the winding water flowed, and now the barren ones were overgrown with weeds. Thinking about the past, when I first entered the Situ Mansion, there was so much noise here, those rich and beautiful people were bustling in the mansion, but now they are as depressed as a dream.

As she walked, she recalled the stories of the past, the good and the bad, the lively memories. The long corridor that she walked with Gong Sheng, the music workshop that came out temporarily, remembered Gong Sheng's sentence "Lang Ran, Qing Yuan, who plays, rings in the empty mountain." Speechless, only drunk to know its day", thinking of their piano and song, I can't help but feel that the years have passed, and now things are human and wrong, and they can't go back to the past.

She sighed and continued to wander in the empty Situ Mansion, and when she looked up, she realized that she had reached the door of the Shaozhen Pavilion at some point. She suddenly remembered Zhao Ji's dying words, and she remembered the fragment of the river map buried under the tree.

She sighed, thinking that Zhao Ji and Lao Situ were in love with each other in their lives, but they went to strangers because of one injury after another, maybe Lao Situ himself never found out that all his concubines looked like Zhao Ji, no one was an exception. In their lives, after all, it is an infatuation that ends without a problem, and it is just an inextricable love and hatred.

Qi Zhao sent Shi Yi and a group of palace maids who followed, and only took Lingxi to the bottom of the tree.
