Chapter 257: Why Did He Marry a Concubine?
Nensnow Palace.
Xi'er kept rolling around on the Luohan bed, and from time to time she looked at the black jade pendant that Mo Heng gave her and smirked.
The two maids who were waiting outside heard Xi'er's laughter, glanced at each other, and whispered.
"Why is the princess so happy today?"
"That's right, the princess used to be sullen when she came back from the Qionghua banquet."
Just as the two were talking in a whisper, there was a sound of footsteps outside the hall. Seeing the comer, the two immediately saluted, "See the emperor." ”
"Did the princess sleep?" The emperor's voice was very soft, as if he had deliberately lowered his voice.
When the maid heard this, she also whispered back, "Not yet." ”
Hearing this, the emperor glanced into the room, waved his hand, and said, "You guys go down first!" ”
"Yes." When the maids heard this, they immediately bowed down and retreated.
After the maids retreated, the emperor lifted the bead curtain and walked in gently, seeing Xi'er turning over on the bed like a little marmot, the corners of the emperor's lips unconsciously raised high, "Xi'er." ”
"Emperor." Seeing the emperor, Xi'er happily jumped off the Luohan bed, threw herself into the emperor's arms, smelled the faint smell of wine on the emperor's body, Xi'er frowned slightly, raised her head, pouted and said, "Emperor, you are drinking again!" ”
When the emperor heard this, his eyes flashed, and he pinched Xi'er's little nose and said, "Xi'er's little nose is still so smart, the emperor only drank a little and you smelled it." Before he came, he took a bath and changed his clothes, but he didn't expect to be smelled by this girl.
Looking at the emperor's dodging gaze, Xi'er directly held the emperor's handsome face, and said seriously, "Emperor, don't change the topic, you promised Xi'er not to drink!" ”
When the emperor heard this, a thick sadness flashed in his dark eyes, lowered his eyelids, and suppressed his emotions, before he raised his eyes to look at Xi'er and smiled, "Today is our Xi'er's birthday, the emperor is happy!" "If he doesn't drink, how will he get through the long night?
Seeing the thick sadness in the emperor's eyes, Xi'er's heart ached suddenly, she reached out and put her arms around the emperor's neck, lay on his shoulder, and stroked his back lightly, "Emperor, you still have Xi'er, Xi'er will always be with you." ”
Xi'er's soft words made the emperor's eyes instantly red, and he reached out to caress Xi'er's long hair, and murmured, "Yes, the emperor still has Xi'er!" "If there is no Xi'er in the past 500 years, he really doesn't know how he will live.
Infected by the sad atmosphere in the room, Duanmu Xi had tears in the corners of his eyes, turned around and walked out of the room gently.
Raising his eyes to look at the unusually bright moon in the sky, a trace of longing flashed in Duanmuxi's eyes, are father, mother and grandfather all right? I remembered that I hadn't seen them in a long time, and suddenly I wanted to go back and see them. And Ah Xue, he should be in a hurry now! She didn't know if this was her and Ah Xue's previous life, and she didn't know how she had to leave here, the only thing she could do now was stay by Xi'er's side.
The Temple of the Savage, the Palace of the Holy Maiden.
Xuanyuan Mo, who had studied the divine stone to no avail, carried the divine stone to Merlot's room.
"You said that Xi'er was sucked in by the Divine Stone." Merlot looked at the Divine Stone in front of her with a shocked expression.
"How can this be, this broken stone can still suck people!" Situ Kong also stared at the white crystal with a shocked expression.
Xuanyuan Mo looked at the Divine Stone's eyes flashing, and said with a solemn expression, "Yes, does the Third Master know how to enter this Divine Stone?" ”
Merlot frowned and shook her head when she heard this, "I haven't encountered this matter before, and I've never heard of it. "Actually, this is the second time she has seen the Divine Stone, the first time she passed the test of the Divine Stone, she has never seen the Divine Stone again, she actually doesn't know anything about the Divine Stone at all.
When Xuanyuan Mo heard this, a touch of loss flashed in his eyes, and now even the last hope was lost, how could he save Xi'er from this broken stone?
"I'm going to ask the Great Elder, maybe he'll know something?" Melo wanted to get up as she spoke, but she forgot that her tendons had broken and she almost fell off the bed, but fortunately, Situ Kong on the side helped her. Merlot was obviously a little anxious, as long as she thought that Xi'er didn't know whether she was alive or dead in the Divine Stone, she was anxious.
Seeing that Merlot still wanted to get out of bed, Xuanyuan's amber eyes flashed, and he said, "No need to go, I've already asked him, and he can't help it." ”
"What then?" Melo was even more anxious when she heard this, even the Great Elder had no choice, so what should Xi'er do?
Looking at the anxious Merlot, Xuanyuan's ink eyes flashed a touch of unbearability, and comforted, "Third Master, don't worry too much, the matter has come to this, we can only believe in Xi'er." He believed that she would be able to come out of the stone safely.
Merlot and Situ Kong all lowered their eyes and nodded when they heard this, they had nothing to do but worry, just like Xuanyuan Mo said, the only thing they could do now was to believe in Xi'er.
One day outside, a hundred years of sacred stones.
Duanmu Xi looked at Xi'er on the swing, his purple eyes flashed slightly, why did Xi'er grow up after only one night. But Xi'er, who has grown up, really looks like her, except for her clothes and the slightly protruding lower abdomen, everything else is really exactly the same.
Looking at the black jade pendant in his hand, a happy smile appeared on Xi'er's lips, big brother, Xi'er has grown up, you must wait for Xi'er.
"Eh, I heard that the beast god Mo Heng is going to choose a concubine, is it true?"
"You've heard that, I've heard that a lot of people are running for election."
"Yes, I heard that not only women from the beast world, but also women from the demon world, the demon world, and even our fairy world have women to participate!"
"It's so lively, I really want to go and see it!"
The sound of speaking from far and near made Xi'er's face turn pale, and she clutched the black jade pendant in her hand tightly, her fingertips slightly white. With a light tap on her toes, Xi'er flew directly from the swing to the two talking fairies, "What you just said is true?" ”
Looking at the sudden appearance of Xi'er, the two fairies were startled, and knelt down together and saluted, "See the princess." ”
"Answer me." Xi'er's voice was unusually cold.
Looking at the somewhat abnormal Xi'er, the two fairies were a little scared in their hearts, "Qi ...... Princess Qiyu, we heard all of that, and we don't know if it's true. ”
"Please forgive the princess, we don't dare to talk nonsense anymore."
Looking at the two fairies who kept kowtowing, Xi'er felt irritable in her heart, and shouted with a wave of her long sleeves, "Get out, get out of me." ”
When the two fairies heard this, they immediately got up from the ground and ran.
Xi'er returned to Nianxue Palace a little dejected.
Looking at Xi'er's listless appearance, a maid stepped forward with some concern and said, "Princess, what's wrong with you?" Is it sick? ”
"All out." Ignoring the care of the maids, Xi'er fell directly to Luohan's bed.
"Yes." The maids looked at each other worriedly and withdrew gently.
Xi'er looked at the black jade pendant in her hand, and the tears in the corners of her eyes slipped uncontrollably, why? Why didn't he wait for her? Why did he marry a concubine?
This night, Xi'er's tears did not stop, and it was not until almost dawn that she fell asleep crying.
In the dream, she saw the scene of Mo Heng marrying a concubine and was directly frightened awake.
When a maid saw Xi'er wake up, she immediately stepped forward and said happily, "Princess, you finally woke up, you slept for three days and three nights, but you scared the slave to death." ”
Xi'er rubbed the hand on the corner of her forehead when she heard this, turned her eyes to look at the maid and frowned, "How long do you say I slept?" ”
The maid was slightly stunned when she heard this, and then said respectfully, "You have slept for three days and three nights, and even the emperor is alarmed, please ......."
Before the maid's words were finished, Xi'er rushed out like an arrow from the string, damn it, she actually slept for three days and three nights, could it be that scene in the dream to come true, she didn't want it, she didn't want her big brother to marry someone else.
"Princess...... The princess ......, "When the maid came back to her senses and chased her out, Xi'er was already gone."
Duanmu Xi followed Xi'er to a place surrounded by stone walls on all sides, and there were five different colored teleportation arrays on the stone walls.
Xi'er looked at the five-color teleportation array on the stone wall and frowned and muttered, "Black represents the ghost world, red is the demon world, and green is the demon world, so which of the remaining blue or purple is the beast world." ”
Xi'er stood at the entrance of the blue and purple teleportation array, hesitated for a long time, and finally walked into the purple teleportation array.
Seeing this, Duanmu Xi immediately followed.
In the blink of an eye, the two were teleported to another place.
Duanmu Xi looked at the scene in front of him, his purple eyes lit up, such a beautiful place, although it is not as smoky and beautiful as the fairy world, but it is better than nature, and the spirit of the fairy is not less than that of the fairy world.
And Xi'er fell in love with this place when she saw it for the first time, such a beautiful place, the big brother must be here. Thinking of Mo Heng, Xi'er was sad again, raised her eyes and looked at some empty places, Xi'er took out the black jade pendant, but was surprised to find that it was facing a faint halo.
Xi'er looked at the black jade pendant in her hand with a look of surprise, and said excitedly, "That's right, the jade pendant is shining, and the big brother must be here." ”
Grabbing the jade pendant in his hand, Xi'er flew happily, and the more she flew forward, the stronger the halo of the black jade pendant.
According to the guidance of the black jade pendant, Xi'er arrived at a city.
Walking on the street full of people, Xi'er frowned, there are so many people, where is she going to find her big brother?
"Little sister, you're also here to sign up for the concubine, right?" Suddenly, a nice female voice sounded beside Xi'er.
When Xi'er heard this, she turned her eyes and saw that it was a middle-aged woman with a kind face, and she just wanted to shake her head and say no, but she suddenly thought of something, nodded and said, "Yes, does this sister know where to sign up?" "She doesn't know where her big brother is? But since he wants to choose a concubine, then she should be able to see him if she participates in the selection of concubines.
When the middle-aged woman heard Xi'er call her sister, a smile rose on her lips and said, "Look at this little mouth is so sweet, just rush at your little mouth, my sister has shown you the way." ”
"Thank you, sister." Hearing this, Xi'er smiled at the middle-aged woman.
